Although Li Dong refused simply, which changed Jiang Lan's impression of him, Jiang Lan still asked him: "What are your plans in the future? You won't just stay in this small house and speculate in stocks, right?"

Li Dong smiled faintly and said: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. I don't have any ambitions, and I don't think about how much money I want to make. I'm just content with being rich and earning a small amount of money steadily. I'm quite satisfied."

."

Jiang Lan nodded secretly.

From her point of view, she hoped that Li Dong would not have so many ambitions.

If a man is too ambitious, it may not be a good thing for women.

Her ex-husband is a good example.

Based on the situation of the Hu and Jiang families, Hu Yue and her husband will not have to worry about their livelihood at all in the future.

So there is no need for her to find a husband who is very capable and has a great career.

Just like Hu Yue's parents.

Hu Yue's father, Hu Donghai, and her mother, Jiang Hui, are both ordinary university professors.

Compared with other people in the family who are often high-ranking officials, bosses, and billionaires, Hu Yue's parents are very ordinary.

But the relationship between Hu Yue's parents and their small family of three are the happiest and most harmonious among the two big families of Hu and Jiang.

Jiang Lan envied her sister Jiang Hui very much.

I also regret very much that I didn’t listen to my sister and insisted on following my ex-husband who seemed very talented, capable and enterprising.

If Li Dong really didn't have such big ambitions and just wanted to be wealthy, then Jiang Lan would be quite in favor of it.

But Jiang Lan also knew that if she approved of Li Dong like this, the rest of the family might not.

Even if the Hu family is not willing to use Hu Yue to make any political marriage, at the very least, Hu Yue's husband must not be too bad in all aspects.

Li Dong himself has an average background and is inherently at a disadvantage. If he doesn't make some impressive achievements the day after tomorrow, I'm afraid it will be really difficult for the Hu family to agree with them.

Sure enough, after Li Dong said this, Hu Chen frowned and said: "You can live a small life by yourself, that's no problem, but what about my sister? You won't let my sister follow you to live a small life."

Is it safe to be rich?"

Although Li Dong has a net worth of tens of millions or hundreds of millions, this net worth is still not enough in front of the Hu family.

It would be okay if Li Dong made this kind of money by doing business, but he made the money by speculating in stocks.

This is hard to say.

"Isn't it good for Xiao Fu to be safe?" Li Dong asked back.

Hu Chen smiled: "For most people, it is good to be able to live in a small life, but who is my sister? Although my family is not a famous family, it is still famous. You

Let my sister stay with you as a rich man, even if my sister agrees, I'm afraid my family won't agree."

Li Donglue pondered for a moment and said, "What will it take for you to agree?"

According to Li Dong's original temper, he would not care about this.

But now, for Hu Yue, he is willing to give in.

Hu Chen also pondered for a while and said: "To be honest, so far, my impression of you is pretty good. Although my background is a bit poor, but with my own ability and a little luck, I can make a lot of money now."

With a net worth of tens of millions, it should be more than that, right? And..."

Hu Chen said this, looked at the small room again, and continued: "...After you got money, you didn't become like other people. You don't know your last name. You have a big gold chain and a small watch."

You're like a fool. On the contrary, you can still... how should I put it... not flamboyant, and still live in such a shabby place, with simple food and clothing, which I really appreciate.

, I hate those people who pretend to be uncles all day long without any money in their pockets. However, appreciation is appreciation, you are still a little bit behind my standard for a brother-in-law."

"If you want to be my sister's husband, let alone moral character, you must at least be a leader in a certain industry in terms of ability. If you are a stock investor, you must at least be a capital giant with hundreds of billions of dollars in charge.

Worthy of my sister."

"Besides, I won't hide it from you. Our old man has already found several candidates for my sister. They are basically young masters from various major families. First of all, they are many times stronger than you by birth. Moreover, each of them is talented.

They are like dragons and phoenixes among people, much better than me. I am just relying on some connections in my family to fool around, but they are either turtles or Ph.D.s. Now they are either starting their own business with a net worth of over 100 million, or they are working in the government.

If you take the job and train yourself, your future official career will be boundless."

"What about you? Although you have earned tens of millions or hundreds of millions, I am not belittling you. Compared with those people, you are still a little behind."

"So, if you want our whole family to agree that you are with my sister, then you have to at least behave better than those guys?"

Hu Chen's words were very direct and frank.

From the perspective of the Hu family, they certainly hope to find Hu Yue a husband who is excellent in all aspects.

My background is not as good as those people. If I can't compare with them in other aspects, then why should the Hu family allow Hu Yue to be with them?

Just because Hu Yue wanted to?

Does that make you look too selfish?

So, what Hu Chen said actually makes sense. He must at least be better than those guys in order to be worthy of Hu Yue.

Li Dong is quite confident about this.

After all, he is also a cheater, so what if the other party is a krypton money boss?

Li Dong said that being a rich man would make him happy, but he was just being modest.

Based on his personality, no matter how rich he is, he is definitely much better than most people.

Isn’t it just to manage hundreds of billions of funds?

He doesn't even need to solicit private equity. If he seizes those opportunities, his own assets can easily exceed 100 billion.

Of course, the premise is that everything is grasped, and it may take a little longer.

Li Dong nodded slowly, acknowledging Hu Chen's words.

Jiang Lan was probably afraid of what Li Dong would think. It wasn't that she cared about Li Dong, but she was worried about Hu Yue.

She and Hu Chen came here not to persuade Li Dong to leave Hu Yue.

Although one of them is Hu Yue's aunt and the other is Hu Yue's cousin, it is obviously not their turn to make the final decision regarding Hu Yue's marriage.

The two of them made a special trip to see Li Dong behind Hu Yue's back this time because they wanted to know more about Li Dong's situation so that they could truthfully report to his family after returning.

If Li Dong had other thoughts because of Hu Chen's words, and then broke up with Hu Yue directly, then based on Hu Yue's temperament, he would definitely resent them both.

Hu Yue would think that they said some unpleasant words to Li Dong and forced Li Dong to break up with her.

If this happens, I am afraid it will arouse Hu Yue's rebellious psychology, which will make it even more difficult to end.

In addition, Jiang Lan's impression of Li Dong has changed so far, and she is not particularly opposed to Li Dong being with Hu Yue.

Then he said to Li Dong: "Actually, I personally quite agree with your concept. It's good to be a little rich and settle down. There is really no need to pursue great wealth."

"Let's just say that Yueyue's parents, that is, my sister and brother-in-law, are just ordinary university professors. Compared with ordinary people, their conditions are very good, but they are not really rich, that is, small rich.

It’s just safe.”

"However, their family of three is very happy, happier than the rest of us."

"But then again, their little wealth will be settled, provided that their marriage has the support of both our families."

"But you and Yueyue can't do it."

"If you want to live a prosperous life with Yueyue, you must first get the approval of our family."

"There is actually a saying that is very good. I only understood it after personal experience. That saying is: a marriage that is not blessed will not be happy."

"If my family doesn't approve of you, do you think Yueyue will be happy with you?"

"If you really like Yue Yue, then you should work hard to improve yourself and strive to be recognized by our family."

"I believe you can do it."

"Because I believe in Yueyue's vision."

"Moreover, you can start from scratch and earn tens of millions or hundreds of millions, which already shows your ability."

"The most important thing is that after you have money, you have not lost yourself and can still maintain your simple original intention. This is very commendable."

"Actually, just now Hu Chen suggested that you do private equity. I think it's absolutely fine. You have the ability, and Hu Chen and I also have some connections. We can help you raise some funds, and we can even invest in you ourselves.

Funding. You can really consider it.”

"Of course, you have to understand that we are doing this all for Yue Yue. Only if you reach a high enough level can the matter between you and Yue Yue be approved by our family."

Jiang Lan said a lot in one breath.

Perhaps she herself did not realize that her attitude towards Li Dong and the relationship between Li Dong and Hu Yue were somewhat contradictory.

Li Dong has certain abilities, and he is also quite simple and honest.

If the family factors of both parties are not considered, Jiang Lan believes that Hu Yue and Li Dong will be happy together.

However, it is impossible for them not to consider family factors.

The old man of the Hu family loves Hu Yue very much and also attaches great importance to Hu Yue's marriage.

Since Hu Yue was very young, the old man began to look for Hu Yue's future husband.

This shows the degree of emphasis.

Li Dong is very good, but I have to admit that the current Li Dong is still a little short of the Hu family's requirements for Hu Yue's husband-in-law.

The Hu family will not agree to Hu Yue and Li Dong being together.

Just like when the Jiang family didn't approve of her being with her ex-husband.

Jiang Lan has experienced firsthand how unhappy an unblessed marriage can be, and she really doesn't want Hu Yue to follow her own path.

She had no way to influence the Hu family's decision, nor could she persuade Hu Yue to break up with Li Dong, let alone force Li Dong to break up with Hu Yue.

What she can do now is to help Li Dong as much as possible.

Li Dong could feel Jiang Lan's affection for Hu Yue.

You can also feel Jiang Lan's ambivalence about both approval and opposition towards him.

Jiang Lan, like Hu Chen, suggested that he do private equity, but he could see that Jiang Lan's starting point was different from Hu Chen's.

Hu Chen encouraged Li Dong to do private equity purely because he wanted to make some money with Li Dong, while Jiang Lan wanted to help Li Dong expand his business as quickly as possible to win the recognition of the Hu family.

Li Dong was very moved.

Yesterday, both Jiang Lan and Hu Chen were a little cold towards him, which made him somewhat dissatisfied, but now that dissatisfaction has long been wiped out.

Li Dong thought about it and said: "I know that my aunt asked me to do private equity for my own good, so that I can make my business bigger and stronger as soon as possible in order to win the recognition of the Hu family. But it's really not necessary."

"Although this sounds a bit arrogant, the fact is that I don't need to borrow other people's funds. I only use my own funds. I am confident that I can expand the funds to a large enough scale within a few years.

Let the Hu family recognize my scale."

"Of course, the premise is that the Hu family will not be biased against me because of my origin."

"In fact, doing private equity will only distract me from my energy."

"Because I'm good at stock trading, but I'm really in a mess when it comes to management and employment."

"If my aunt and elder brother are really willing to help me, then they can help me plan the development of my hometown. My cousin's affairs have also worried me. In addition, if you can occasionally provide me with something

Inside information and so on, I would be even more grateful."

"Please rest assured, auntie. Although I, Li Dong, am not a saint, I am at least a man. As long as Hu Yue never leaves me, I will be devoted to her and will never have second thoughts in my life."

Li Dong's last words were decisive.

Jiang Lan was slightly moved.

Looking at Li Dong, he said: "I hope you will do what you say."

Hu Chen also patted Li Dong on the shoulder and said: "I can't tell, you are quite crazy. Everyone is trying every possible means to get funds. It's better for you. You don't want anyone who comes to your door. You even say that you only rely on your own money."

With just enough funds, you can reach the point where the Hu family recognizes you, and you have ambition! I might as well give you a thorough explanation. If you want people in my family to recognize you, you must at least have this amount..."

Hu Chen said, holding out a finger.

"One hundred billion?" Li Dong asked.

Hu Chen just said that the funds under Li Dong's control must reach at least 100 billion to be worthy of his sister.

To be honest, it is still difficult to earn 100 billion in two or three years.

He must seize every opportunity as much as possible to hope to achieve it.

Hu Chen choked and said angrily: "If you can really earn 100 billion in a few years, then I will introduce all my sisters to you."

"Really?" Li Dong's eyes suddenly gleamed and he blurted out.

Hu Chen glared: "What do you mean, kid? Just now you swore that you would never have a second thought for Yue Yue, but now you are thinking about my other sisters?"

Li Dong smiled coquettishly: "Brother, didn't you say that yourself?"

"I...I just said it casually! If you dare to be dishonest with me again, I will slap you!" Hu Chen stared and made a gesture.

Jiang Lan on the side also rolled her eyes.

Li Dong smiled coquettishly again, and then quickly changed the subject: "How much is the finger that brother extends? Ten billion? Or one billion?"

"One hundred! As long as you can earn 10 billion, I guarantee that our whole family will treat you differently and no one will object to your relationship with Yue Yue." Hu Chen said angrily.
