Fu Tongyuan frowned. "Uncle, you're just prejudiced against Da Chuan and the others. Da Chuan works very hard in business and makes money. He bought the house with his own money."
Fu Qifeng laughed, "Tongyuan, you've been in the army for so many years, and you've been doing business these past two years, yet you're still so naive and easily fooled? Da Chuan said he bought it with his own money, and you believed him?"
"It's alright, really. Your father's money went to Tongzhou, so they can spend it however they want. What's there to be ashamed of? If they can't even admit something this small, they're not as honest as they were when they came to Kyoto."
Fu Tongyuan didn't have much patience to explain. "Uncle, once you've made up your mind, there's no point in arguing with you. In short, Da Chuan and the others are living their lives seriously, working hard to earn money, and they have a bright future. That's enough."
Fu Qiming agreed, "Tongyuan is right."
Fu Qifeng didn't say anything more. He actually just wanted to find out how much money Fu Qiming had given Fu Tongzhou.
As a result, his brother didn't let anything slip.
When Fu Tongyuan returned, he said that Fu Linchuan had bought a house, so all that money was wasted.
After Fu Qifeng left, Fu Tongyuan said to Fu Qiming, "Dad, Uncle clearly just wanted to find out how much money you gave to Tongzhou and the others. He acts like all our family's money can go into their pockets."
Fu Qiming thought about his father's last words, took a deep breath, and said, "Let them live their own lives, we don't need to worry about them so much."
Fu Tongyuan knew there was no other way but to leave it at that for now.
As long as Fu Qifeng and Fu Zhenghui don't do anything too outrageous, things will just pass.
Fu Linchuan was unaware of what was happening in Kyoto, and the house in Xuancheng was tidied up.
The 150 square meters of the bungalow was much more spacious than the later apartment buildings.
Fu Linwei and his family live in a rented house.
Fu Linchuan gave one of the south-facing bedrooms to Fu Tongzhou and Zheng Yumei.
After that, Fu Tongzhou and Zheng Yumei returned to Yuquan Village.
Fu Tongzhou had made up his mind to do business with Fu Linchuan in Xuancheng, so when he went back this time, he first rented out the land in his home.
After finishing all that, they brought Xu Chunmai and her two children to Xuancheng.
Once Xu Chunmai and the others arrive, Sun Qiaoling will take the children and move with Fu Linping to Wangshan County.
Fu Linwei is busy working at the noodle shop every day.
Sun Xiangdong and Zhang Xianglong take turns delivering braised meat to the noodle shop every day.
Everyone's work is starting to get back on track.
Fu Linchuan spent his time looking around Xuancheng and studying the rest of the time.
He wanted to find potential customers, to see if anyone was buying from his braised meat processing plant.
Although the eight clients that Fu Tongyuan brought in are now quite stable, it would be even better if there were more in Xuancheng or nearby.
Who doesn't want more money?
Based on Fu Linchuan's memories from his previous life, he visited several places, looked at several restaurants, and then marked them.
I was going to take some of the braised meat from his factory and ask if he wanted to buy some.
Fu Linchuan made his notes and was about to walk towards the bus stop when he saw a sign for taxis posted on the storefront next to the stop, before the bus even arrived.
Fu Linchuan looked at the location; it was very convenient for transportation.
It's right next to two large factories, and across the street is a large hospital.
Aside from the small size of the shop, it has no other drawbacks.
But why would someone rent out a shop like this?
Fu Linchuan walked over, peered through the window, and then knocked on the door.
Below the words "For Rent," there's no other address or phone number. If no one's home, you wouldn't know where to look.
Fu Linchuan looked up and saw that the sign indicated it was a steamed bun shop.
He knocked twice, and after a short while, a somewhat aged-looking hand opened the door.
"Young man, who are you looking for?"
The person who opened the door looked to be in his fifties; he was a man.
"Uncle, may I ask you something? Are you renting out this shop?"
The man nodded. "Yes, it's a taxi. Come in."
"Uncle, how do you calculate the rent for this shop?" Fu Linchuan went in to take a look. The shop was not even as big as the one he rented in Wangshan County. It was only about 60 square meters inside and out, and there wasn't enough room for many tables.
If he opens a shop now and stops making braised meat, or if he adds a stove, it will be even more crowded.
However, this location is really good, especially when breakfast is served, it will definitely be crowded.
Now that the weather is warmer, we can set up tables outside.
"It's eighteen yuan a month. If you think it's okay, rent it; if not, forget it." The man's attitude seemed indifferent and unenthusiastic, as if he didn't care whether he rented the shop or not.
A little girl ran out from behind and asked, "Grandpa, I'm so hungry. Will Mommy come again today?"
As she spoke, the little girl's eyes were filled with fear.
Fu Linchuan was quite surprised. Most children like to stick close to their mothers, so this was unusual.
Does this child's mother beat him every day?
"Nini, Grandpa will cook for you in a little while. Mom probably won't be coming today. Don't worry, Grandpa will protect you."
As they were talking, the back door was suddenly kicked open, and a woman with a cigarette dangling from her mouth strode in. "Dad, where's the promised two hundred yuan? Is it ready?"
The man scoffed, "You just stole fifty yesterday!"
The woman pulled up a stool and sat down. "Fifty? Fifty's not enough for anything. Two hundred, hurry up!"
Fu Linchuan roughly understood; no matter how much money a family has, they're always afraid of having someone like this.
This perfectly good steamed bun shop is probably going to be ruined by this woman.
It seems that no matter how good the location is, this shop shouldn't be rented.
If this woman keeps causing trouble, or brings some shady characters with her, how can he continue doing business?
It is said that even an upright official finds it difficult to settle family disputes. This man and this little girl do look pitiful, but it is not something he can control.
Fu Linchuan said, "Uncle, since you have something to attend to, I'll be leaving now."
The man casually asked, "So, are you going to rent this shop or not?"
Just as Fu Linchuan was about to speak, the woman stood up and walked over, exhaling a smoke ring as she looked him up and down. "You want to rent a shop? My shop is perfect. Look, the location is great, perfect for business. The rent isn't expensive either. If you want to rent, just sign a contract with me and pay me the rent."
