Chapter 85 Visit
From a purely economic perspective, Liaodong People's Radio Station's broadcast of "The Cliff" will not be of much help to Lin Weimin, unless the subsequent novels become a hit and he can sell the broadcasting rights of the novels.
After discussing the matter with Liu Baoxiang, he no longer cared about it.
As the New Year draws closer, the city of Yanjing is gradually taking on a New Year atmosphere.
Lin Weimin had only experienced this kind of festive atmosphere, which could be felt wherever he went, when he was a child. He never had that feeling again after growing up.
That day, Qu Xiaowei ran to Lin Weimin's dormitory, looking very sexy, and it was obvious that he had made some kind of agreement with Comrade Liu Haiyan.
"Okay, keep your chin down before it drops again." Lin Weimin said sarcastically.
Qu Xiaowei sneered and said in a sarcastic tone: "What do you know about this, you have a wooden head?"
Lin Weimin sneered in his heart, I don't understand? Your father is a man who wants to build a big harem.
"Haiyan said that she will come to Yanjing after graduation." Qu Xiaowei said happily.
Lin Weimin attacked: "Do you think your company is owned by your family? You can go wherever I say?"
He really doesn't think highly of this long-distance relationship.
In modern times, transportation and information are so developed that long-distance relationships can break up at any time. Lin Weimin is skeptical that they can stay together for a long time under the current conditions.
"You know nothing. Haiyan and I are truly in love."
Lin Weimin could only shake his head, another stick maker who was blinded by love.
Do you really think true love is invincible?
"By the way, have you contacted Ji Xiaofeng?" Qu Xiaowei asked.
“No.”
"Why don't you contact her? Don't you know where she works?"
"Why would I contact her? I'm so busy all day!"
Qu Xiaowei looked at Lin Weimin as if he was looking at a stick. With this kind of character, he would not feel wronged to be a bachelor for his whole life.
"I'm talking to you, aren't you interested in women?" Qu Xiaowei couldn't help but ask.
Lin Weimin glared, "What do you mean? You can doubt your father's character, but you can't doubt his orientation!"
"You bastard, you should let Lao Jiao beat you with the soles of his shoes to teach you a lesson." Qu Xiaowei scolded.
After cursing at each other for a while, the two finally calmed down. Lin Weimin asked, "Do you have any business to attend to?"
"Yes, of course! Let's go to your courtyard and take a look. I haven't seen it yet, just from what you said!"
"All right."
Lin Weimin was just about to leave with Qu Xiaowei when someone unexpectedly came to visit him.
"Hey, Shuozi, why are you here?"
"I was free at work, so I thought I'd talk to you." Wang Shuo said.
Seeing Lin Weimin and Qu Xiaowei dressed neatly, he asked, "Are you going out?"
Qu Xiaowei said, "Weimin bought a yard in Shichahai. I haven't been there yet. I plan to go and take a look. Let's go, shall we?"
Wang Shuo immediately became interested when he heard it, "Let's go!"
Several people rode their bicycles and soon arrived near Shichahai.
Wang Shuo counted the houses nearby and said, "Wei Min picked a good place. In the early days, only the rich and the noble lived here."
"He's such a show-off! He spent 5,000 yuan to buy a house here, but it's better to go and find a building."
"You know nothing! Siheyuan is life."
Wang Shuo smiled and said, "I think Weimin is right."
A few people came to the gate of the courtyard while chatting and laughing. Wang Shuo looked at the antique hanging flower gate and exclaimed: "This house looks really good."
"It's even nicer inside." Lin Weimin pushed the door open and walked in.
As the year draws to a close, the project of Lin Weimin's courtyard is nearing completion. Most of the work that can be done has been completed, and the rest will have to wait until the beginning of next spring.
From the outside the courtyard looked the same as before, but once you entered the house you'll notice some differences.
There used to be many rooms in the courtyard. Except for a kitchen, the rest were rooms that people could live in. Although there seemed to be a lot of rooms, they lacked some living interest.
Lin Weimin has now lavishly divided the rooms into different functional areas, leaving only two bedrooms habitable.
"Weimin, I think this is too wasteful, isn't it?" Qu Xiaowei said.
People's housing conditions are not that good these days. Most families can't even afford one room per person, let alone the treatment of having a courtyard to themselves like Lin Weimin.
"I live alone, why do I need so many rooms? Even if I get married in the future, how many people will there be in my family?"
Qu Xiaowei had no way to refute Lin Weimin, so he could only say dryly: "You deserve to be single for the rest of your life!"
"You uncle!"
No matter what they said, Lin Weimin could still see the envy from Qu Xiaowei and Wang Shuo's eyes.
"You are such a cruel bastard! This is five thousand dollars!"
Qu Xiaowei took a tour and finally said something through gritted teeth.
"Look at your ugly face that hates the rich!" Lin Weimin said proudly.
Wang Shuo said quietly, "These days, being a writer really makes money!"
Qu Xiaowei showed some regret on his face, "If I had known earlier, I should have tried harder."
Lin Weimin patted his shoulder and said, "Don't. Sometimes, the harder you work, the more miserable you feel!"
Looking at his smug expression, Qu Xiaowei wanted to give him a big slap.
"Please treat me! I must treat you! Otherwise it won't make up for the trauma in my heart." Qu Xiaowei started to act like a rogue.
"Okay, what do you want to eat?" Lin Weimin said happily.
Qu Xiaowei looked at him suspiciously, "Are you so happy today?"
"It's almost the New Year, and you won't let me be generous for once?"
"You finally said something human."
"Let's go!"
A few people came out of the courtyard and found a restaurant to have a meal.
Qu Xiaowei carefully inquired about the various expenses of buying a house for Lin Weimin. When he heard that Lin Weimin had already invested 6,000 yuan in this courtyard house, he couldn't help but say, "With this money, you can buy any house. Why do you have to build such a small courtyard?"
"You won't understand even if I tell you. You will slowly understand it later."
Lin Weimin had a mysterious look on his face, which inexplicably reminded Qu Xiaowei of the same expression he had when he stuffed stamps into his hands before.
"Playing tricks!" Qu Xiaowei muttered.
"What's the matter? Why do you want to know so much? Are you really planning to get married?" Lin Weimin asked.
Qu Xiaowei nodded, "Haiyan will graduate in half a year. This time I asked her to go back and ask if she can get a job in Yanjing. If not, I'll ask my parents to help think of a solution."
Lin Weimin was not optimistic about the future of this young couple, but he couldn't say anything discouraging at this time. He turned around and asked, "Shuozi, how is your novel going?"
"I'm writing it now."
"Is the writing going badly?"
"Yeah." Wang Shuo took a sip of wine.
At this time, he was not yet the literary ruffian who would dominate the literary world in later generations, and his mind was not completely focused on writing, but he still had the desire to make a fortune.
