Chapter 706: Starting Cohabitation Life

"Chen Yang, my uncle asked you to come invest—how did you get me to sign the investment contract?" Chu Min was puzzled by Chen Yang's act of making himself a shareholder of Swift Abundance Technology Company.

Chen Yang explained: "I have too many properties under my name; one person can't manage them all. Since you're often in Modu, you're more suited to be the shareholder here."

Chu Min heard this and said with a grin: "I can be a shareholder, but the money has to come from you."

Chen Yang said he had no objection. His purpose in coming to Modu, besides investing in games and real estate, was also to open up the market for the Common People's Agricultural Products Trading Company in Modu.

Since we've already broken ties with the Tang Family, we will definitely encounter many obstacles going forward.

At this time, he also didn't have extra energy to worry about the subsequent development of Swift Abundance Technology Company.

Letting Chu Min take over the business there is the most suitable choice at present.

As for the money issue, that's just the income from pulling an all-nighter in the US stock market. He really doesn't care about it now.

Chu Min happily kissed Chen Yang on the cheek. "Dear, you treat me so well—why don't we get married?"

Chen Yang gently pinched her smooth, pretty face and teased: "You're so greedy, even two hundred million can't satisfy you, and you still want to scheme for half of my fortune."

Chu Min hit Chen Yang hard and said angrily: "You're so annoying! Although I love money, my feelings for you are genuine too!"

Chen Yang was a bit worried that Chu's grandfather would cause trouble for him, and he sighed: "I really have no confidence in marriage right now; let's just keep things as they are! In any case, I promise you that no matter whether we end up together in the future, I won't let you down."

Upon hearing that, Chu Min felt a little disappointed. She put on an act of not caring and said: "This young lady gave you a chance because I think you're a decent person. Since you don't cherish it, if you want to marry me again later, it won't be that easy."

Chen Yang gave a wry smile. Dating is a matter between two people, but marriage involves two families.

The Chu Family, being such a powerful aristocratic clan, as long as Chu's grandfather doesn't nod in approval, even if they secretly obtain a marriage certificate, they will still be torn apart in the end.

So, he currently cannot give Chu Min any promises.

After silently sending Chu Min back to Tangchenyipin, Chen Yang drove back to the hotel alone.

Feeling bored and idle, Chen Yang went online to look at real estate sale information in Modu.

For the offline chain stores of the Common People's Agricultural Products Trading Company, he planned to continue buying the shops in his personal name as before, then lease them to the company at a low price.

Shop prices in Modu are much higher than in Xingcheng, but the return on investment is also higher. Even if a property tax is introduced in the future, he still thinks it's worth investing in.

Moreover, Modu will implement purchase restriction policies in a few years. If you don't buy now, it will be difficult to buy later.

However, most of the housing sale information online is just one or two simple photos, and the sellers' response speed is very slow. Chen Yang only asked a few questions before shifting his attention to the already-open US stock market.

After technical optimization by Luo Hao's team, the stock trading software Chen Yang uses has become smarter than before. It can automatically buy when a stock drops to a certain level and automatically sell when it rises to a certain level.

Besides that, the optimized software also added a stop-loss function. When the stock price falls below a certain level, it will automatically sell the shares in the position and stop trading.

The birth of this function allowed Chen Yang to completely say goodbye to the life of staying up late trading stocks.

Thus, after selecting the stocks to trade, Chen Yang went to lie down on the bed.

That sleep gave Chen Yang a nightmare. He dreamed that several strangers tied him to a stone pillar. Then Chu's grandfather suddenly appeared before him. The other party held a pistol, and bullets spewed out from the barrel in a dense stream, piercing his body with countless blood holes.

After struggling free from the dream, Chen Yang discovered that his back was already soaked with sweat.

At that moment, his phone suddenly lit up. When he picked it up, he saw it was a call from Chu Min.

"Chen Yang, which woman are you fooling around with, why haven't you been answering my calls?"

"No, I was sleeping!"

"Hmph, I don't believe you. Hurry up and open the door for me."

Chen Yang checked the phone time—it was already 2 a. m. He then looked at the call log and found it was all missed calls and messages from Chu Min.

He hurriedly got up, opened the door, and saw Chu Min standing at the doorway with a resentful expression.

"Chen Yang, are you annoyed with me and pretending to sleep on purpose?"

"No, I'm afraid of being disturbed, so I set my phone to silent before sleeping." Chen Yang explained while pulling Chu Min into his room, then asked concerned: "You're still awake this late—did something big happen?"

Chu Min didn't answer Chen Yang; instead, she warily searched the room, and only after confirming there were no traces of other women did she reveal a satisfied smile.

"Chen Yang, since you don't have any marriage plans for now, let's first live together!"

Chen Yang's mind immediately conjured the image of Chu's grandfather shooting at him, and he said somewhat apprehensively: "Chu Min, is this appropriate? If your family finds out, will they object?"

Chu Min gave Chen Yang a sideways glance and said: "You've slept with me how many times, and now you're afraid?"

Chen Yang thought about it and agreed. Deputy Mayor Wang knows about his relationship with Chu Min, and the Chu family couldn't possibly be unaware. The fact that they haven't come to confront him shows they likely tacitly accept their relationship. But the earlier dream still left him with lingering fear.

"Chu Min, I just dreamed that your grandfather pointed a gun at me and fired. He probably doesn't like me being with you, right?"

Upon hearing that, Chu Min directly scolded Chen Yang as a coward. After scolding him, she laughed and said: "Grandfather is in Goat City and can't interfere with affairs here in Modu. As long as you don't go to Goat City, what's there to fear?"

Chen Yang was instantly speechless. He himself isn't in Goat City, but he has many industries there. If Chu's grandfather gets angry, his layout in the south will be ruined!

"Chu Min, actually our current relationship is pretty good. Having a bit of distance and a touch of mystery makes feelings last longer."

"I don't want that." Chu Min directly rejected Chen Yang's proposal, speaking in a commanding tone: "Hurry up and pack up, then come back with me to Tangchenyipin."

Seeing that persuasion didn't work, Chen Yang could only shut off the computer, then pack up his belongings. Together they moved into Tangchenyipin.

This time, he slept straight through until the afternoon before waking up, and in between he didn't dream of Chu's grandfather again.

However, Chu Min then told him some bad news.

Because they rejected East Prosperity International's acquisition offer, Swift Abundance Technology Company was isolated by the Modu Chamber of Commerce. Overnight, all the enterprises and merchants that had cooperated with Swift Abundance Technology Company canceled their partnerships.

Losing the export market was undoubtedly adding insult to injury for Swift Abundance Technology Company, which was already in financial distress.

But when Chen Yang heard this news, he wasn't the slightest bit panicked.

Because the market for the photovoltaic industry has never been in Modu, but rather in the vast expanses beyond Modu.
