Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

At the end of July, another major event was looming.

That was the cruise party that Water Cloud Space was hosting.

As the name suggests, it involved renting a super cruise ship, inviting one to two thousand top members, and setting sail for a three-day, two-night sea journey.

Then, their revenue could reach seven or eight hundred million.

The reason for this income was largely thanks to the accumulation of customers in the earlier stages.

The two flagship stores of Water Cloud Space began trial operations at the end of 2015, followed by an investment of ten billion in 32 top clubs, which also opened simultaneously in June this year.

During this period, they blanketed the skies with their advertisements and organized a massive concert.

While creating a grand spectacle, it naturally drew the attention of countless customers.

With such a significant initial investment, they were now starting to cash in their first substantial revenue in the real sense.

It was indeed a momentous occasion.

The cruise convention this time maintained the usual standard of Water Cloud Space's parties.

There was only more luxury, never the most luxurious.

All attending top customers received a Hermes scarf, Chanel perfume, and an LV bag valued at around thirty thousand, per person.

These items were merely the return gifts for the customers.

The major prizes on the super cruise were far more than this, with the highest-level award being a Rolls-Royce Phantom Convertible.

The prize just below that was of the Bentley Continental level, and the next level down consisted of limited edition Hermes bags.

As for the wine, it was exclusively 1982 Lafite.

Even a sheet of toilet paper for ladies was of the globally finest brand.

Guaranteed to make one's bottom smell fragrant after use.

All costs were covered by the "wool" that came off the backs of the "sheep."

The products sold on the cruise ship included not only the general Eternal Youth facial maintenance projects but also various high-end anti-aging device treatments.

And that included Botox and such.

For skincare and Botox, one could only do it twice a year at most, costing two million per session.

For a woman to maintain her youth and to compete with twenty-something girls at forty, spending money on skincare was inevitable.

Water Cloud Space had been offering high-end device treatments for a while and had also obtained various certifications for them.

Being pricey was a given, and the brand ensured not to sell a single counterfeit product.

Already making such a killing, there was no need to sell fake goods.

This event saw many celebrities in attendance, including Yang Mi, Dilraba, Liu Yifei, Bai Lu, and others providing support.

They themselves were also clients of Water Cloud Space, needing to go for their maintenance each year.

They had used almost all sorts of top-end products.

Only then could they maintain long-term youthfulness in their faces.

On the cruise ship, the lowest tier project was the health preservation project for sub-health conditions.

Priced at seven hundred and eighty thousand, it was already quite conscientious.

The highest had reached around five million.

Mostly they sold annual passes, which covered the full year of maintenance for a particular project, with an unlimited number of sessions.

Health preservation projects were generally done once a week, while efficacy type treatments were done once every six months or even once a year.

The summit cruise convention, the ultimate in women's luxury.

In the end, with the support of countless stars, they concluded deals worth 1.28 billion, and after deducting the cost of the event and product costs, they still profited 890 million.

Chen Pingsheng personally held 60% of the shares of Water Origin Space in the Magic City region.

With a ding, his accumulated income reached 540 million.

A small sum of money.

"Activate the random multiplier."

The Golden Dice kept shaking and finally stopped dead on the number five.

"Congratulations to the host, you've obtained a fivefold random boost."

One second, two seconds, three minutes passed.

His bank account received 2.7 billion.

His wife's account also received a profit of 890 million, for the dividends next month.

Speaking seriously, he had just spent 18 billion a few days prior, and now he truly did not know how to spend this money.

It was mainly because he had already packed all the brands under his group with funds.

Even Tengfei New Energy, the most cash-absorbing, had nearly 20 billion lying around in project liquidity funds.

There was no need for further investments for the next year and a half.

As for Antler Coffee, it goes without saying that its profits had already started to climb.

And it officially completed its Nasdaq listing in late July, hitting five consecutive upper limit price surges right after it went public.

Its market value had already reached a staggering 26 billion.

Fei Yangyang and Bobo Milk Tea were the same, with no need for further financial subsidies.

The only one that hadn't gone public yet was Tenghui Department Store, and with the IPO already completed, going public was only a matter of time.

Even the newly established Snacks Dash was developing rapidly, relying on franchising.

For a moment, he felt a sense of helpless extravagance as though he had too much money and nowhere to spend it.

Indeed, life was lonely and boring with just three billion left in his bank account.

The spoiled brat Chen An'an poked her head around and came over, having invited Yang Xiaole over to play.

"Dad, are you going to Xiangjiang soon?"

"Yes, I'm heading there on the fifth of August, your dad is still learning."

"Then, can you take me with you?"

Chen Ping looked up and found the spoiled brat volunteering to massage his shoulders, offering unsolicited help for sure—it was either for pocket money or because she wanted to go somewhere to play.

"Isn't Magic City enough for you to play in, what do you want in Xiangjiang?"

"I'm going there for livestreaming, I heard it's even more popular over there."

Chen An'an had worked hard for half a year, and her livestreaming career had progressed rapidly.

She had finally grown from a hundred fans to three hundred and several more.

This trip to Xiangjiang was to break through five hundred followers.

For this modest goal, she had to strive, strive, and strive some more.

"You're going there for ten days to half a month with your dad, no whining to come back, okay!"

"Definitely won't whine."

Chen An'an's eyes brightened, "Dad, can you take Yang Xiaole with us? It's not good for me to make videos alone."
