Chapter 102: Chapter 102: Preparing to go home_1

Buying the car went smoothly. Wang Ye purchased a top-tier white Land Cruiser. It didn’t cost much, just over $76,000.

Liu Jun’s budget was a bit less, so he opted for the lower-tier Land Cruiser, which cost just over $60,000, going slightly over his budget.

But that’s usually the case when purchasing a vehicle.

They had initially planned on buying an Alto, but ended up bringing home an Audi instead...

The license plate and other related procedures consumed time. Also, Wang Ye had to apply for a driver’s license, therefore he delegated this task to the car dealership.

As always, in Moscow, money can make things happen. With that much spent, the dealership’s efficiency was unparalleled.

The salesperson assured them that in three days, they could come to collect their vehicles. By that time, all the administrative procedures would be completed, including the license plate.

......

After buying the car Wang Ye planned on returning home with Angelina.

Before leaving, Liu Jun said to him: "Last time you told me about the telecom company, I discussed it with my friend. When you have time, we can arrange another meeting to go over the details."

He was talking about setting up the Telecom company together - a task who Wang Ye had asked to prepare during their previous meeting.

Now Liu Jun had no doubts about Wang Ye.

If Wang Ye was claiming the telecom card market would take off, then there’s no doubt it would...

His judgment and ability had been fully demonstrated with the success of the study abroad agency!

What’s more, the initial investment for setting up the telecom card company seemed slightly high for Liu Jun a while back.

But now, it didn’t seem like much.

The profit he had made from his share in the Qingyun company was enough to invest in the telecom card company as well as buy a car!

So he was now feeling more confident.

Without any hesitation, Wang Ye answered back, "You can finalize the plans directly. We are partnering on this business together, we can split the investment and ownership stakes. There aren’t many details to discuss. Oh, and rent a small office space in Alpha. If you’re going to do it, do it properly."

For the telecom company, Wang Ye didn’t plan on pressuring Liu Jun to give up more.

Nor did he plan on claiming a larger share of the company, given that he has the overall plan and distribution channels.

After all, Liu Jun had his resources and could negotiate with the Telecom Companies.

As expected, upon hearing this Liu Jun’s face held a big smile, he quickly replied: "All right, I will go ahead and handle it. I will get everything sorted out quickly as the company isn’t too busy these days."

The recruitment for study abroad had ended. Things back in Yangnan Teacher’s College were hectic: guiding students to complete various procedures and language training for Russian.

But things at Qingyun Company had quietened down. It wasn’t until the students’ information comes in from the domestic side that work needed to be done, which was not too daunting.

.........

They took a taxi and returned to their apartment.

After returning home, Angelina poured Wang Ye a glass of water. Then she took out her phone and laughed, "It’s been almost a month since I’ve called home. A lot has happened recently so I should report back."

Wang Ye nodded, expressing his understanding.

Angelina then took the phone and went to the bedroom to make the call.

Wang Ye sat alone on the living room couch, drinking water while considering his next move.

The operations of the Study Abroad Service Company had reached a signing point.

Of course, that was just for Wang Ye.

There was still plenty to handle for the company. But with Liu Jun and their staff present, Wang Ye didn’t have to worry too much.

Setting aside the money spent on the car, let’s say $80,000.

Adding this to the money he earned from selling phone cards and the money he initially had, Wang Ye had about $650,000 available to him.

He needed to keep at least $50,000 aside for the telecom card company.

This left $600,000 available for other things.

$600,000...

That should be enough...

He was engrossed in his thoughts when he heard Angelina’s footsteps. She must have finished her phone call.

Wang Ye looked up and was taken aback. He saw reddened eyes on Angelina, as though she had been crying.

"What happened? Did you have a fight with your family?" he asked with concern.

Angelina shook her head, softly saying, "No, I just miss my Mom, and Dad, and my little sister. I haven’t been home since my graduation last year, it’s almost been two years."

She was just a girl in her twenties. It was natural for her to miss her family after being away for so long.

Wang Ye opened his arms. Angelina moved over and snuggled against him.

"How about this - I give you a few days off, and you can go home to see your family? I don’t have much to do currently, I can go with you." Wang Ye suddenly suggested.

Angelina looked up, surprised, and asked, "Really? Do you have the time to go with me?"

"Hehe, did you mention our relationship to your mother-in-law just now?" Wang Ye joked.

Angelina blushed, her long eyelashes fell as she softly said, "I did...."

This girl had actually talked about everything, Wang Ye was somewhat surprised.

But on second thought, their relationship was no big deal to Angelina. After all, she had graduated and was working, it was quite normal for her to have a boyfriend. If she didn’t, that would be strange.

But he was curious about how his Russian mother-in-law would perceive her foreign "son-in-law"...

Not every family could accept an international relationship.

After all, there were big differences in race, culture, lifestyle, and other aspects.

"Since you already told her, I should definitely go. I would be in the wrong if I didn’t go and introduce myself after taking her daughter away," Wang Ye said with a smile.

After the joy, reality set in. Angelina seemed to remember something and frowned, "But it’s quite troublesome for us to go home once. It’s a thousand kilometers away from Moscow. It doesn’t sound too far, but the transportation is not very convenient. We have to take a train first, then a ferry, and finally a bus. It takes two to three days."

Transportation in Russia was not very developed, especially outside of Moscow...

And there was no bridge connecting the Crimea Peninsula to mainland Russia at that time. It was quite troublesome.

"Then we can drive back. It would be a good opportunity to break in our new car with a long trip," Wang Ye casually suggested.

He did not want to trek long distance by bus and train, especially since many young Russians were not very friendly toward foreigners during those days. If he bumps into any trouble it would be difficult for him being the lone foreigner.

If anything happened, there would be no place to lodge a complaint!

It would be better to drive there, at least it would be safer.

Angelina felt that Wang Ye was right. Driving was faster and much more comfortable.

So they decided that in three days, after collecting their new car, they would drive home together!
