Chapter 360 I am the ginseng fruit!
Qin Weihong had no idea that the two people far away in Beijing missed her so much.
She has no time to slack off these days. She follows Chen Lan around as her errand boy, and her big face has become thinner.
Shao Xinming has also been missing recently.
She could only chat with Chen Lan, but Chen Lan didn't like to pay attention to her, so she talked to herself most of the time.
"Why are there so many pigeon coops in this harbor city? A tiny place is called a mansion."
Last time, she followed Shao Xinming to a banquet to eat and drink for free, and heard people talking about buying a house.
I found that a 90-square-meter house in Hong Kong is considered a luxury house.
When her father Qin Deshui was still alive, her family's two-story house occupied more than 90 acres of land.
After listening to it, she went back with her back straight.
Shao Xinming's face didn't look good. He was not tall.
It happened that Qin Weihong straightened up, and the height difference between them became smaller, which made him very uncomfortable.
It’s so annoying. He has to ask Vivian to make him a taller heel when he gets home.
Qin Weihong nudged Chen Lan's elbow. "Hey, Master, what have you been busy with lately? When are we going back to Beijing?"
Chen Lan, as always, was very cool and aloof. She tossed her hair and said, "Just wait."
In fact, she was not sure either.
Shao Xinming came in with a sour look on his face, sat down on the leather chair, and sulked to himself.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Qin Weihong standing at the door like a big fool, yelling.
"Can't you see I'm thirsty? Hurry up and pour me a cup of tea!"
Qin Weihong turned around and rolled her eyes towards the sky.
Is this little dwarf drunk?
The smell is so strong early in the morning!
Her big hands generously grabbed a handful of tea leaves and threw them into the boiling water. Her hands were rough and she was not afraid of the heat.
Shao Xinming took it, touched it with his hand and almost threw the teacup onto Qin Weihong's head.
"Hiss~ It's so hot, are you trying to hurt me?"
Qin Weihong said honestly, "Master, it's cold, so drink more hot water."
"Are you stupid? With the temperature outside, am I still afraid of the cold?"
Shao Xinming was in a bad mood and full of anger when he was talking with the Zheng family today.
He slammed the table and said, "This is really too much!"
The Zheng family owns several private boats and has business dealings with the Huaqiangbei area of Pengcheng.
It is called a cargo ship, but it actually secretly transports people here.
The profit margin of this gray income is frighteningly high, and at every point in time, many people are scrambling to set foot on the land of Gangcheng.
It is of course not free to let people come here by boat. The charge is per person and the price is not cheap. There are many people who are willing to spend money.
This time, the Shao family needs to use the Zheng family's private boat for a batch of goods, so his father let him go alone this time to negotiate.
Unexpectedly, the old man of the Zheng family was also a greedy person. When he went there, the eldest daughter of the Zheng family who had fallen in love and refused to come out was actually at the dinner table.
A few days ago, when he went to his own tea restaurant to eat, he heard people at the next table discussing the incident of Zheng's father forcibly breaking up a couple.
As a single person, I understood it immediately.
This old man dug a hole for him.
Although he is usually a little silly, he doesn't like a love-brained person.
After all, he is not very smart to begin with. If another one comes along, won’t his father’s career be ruined?
He refused to cooperate and the meal ended in a bad mood.
Sulking alone, I looked at the busy Vivian.
He said to Qin Weihong, "Please go out for a moment. I have something to discuss."
Qin Weihong touched her stomach and obediently slipped out to find something to eat.
After the people walked away, Shao Xinming asked in a low voice: "How is the business of our line recently?
Can you spare some money? I need it urgently."
Chen Lan frowned and shook her head: "I haven't sold much recently, and there's not much money left in the account."
Shao Xinming felt that the chair under his butt was not stable anymore.
He heard that the decision-makers in Pengcheng were considering selling land, which was a good time to build a building.
If he has no money, what can he use to rob others?
After a moment's thought, he said, "Take out that inner-painted snuff bottle and find some foreigners to see if they'll buy it."
Chen Lan nodded.
This was the longest job she had done under Shao Xinming.
Since she can communicate in basic foreign languages well, Shao Xinming is relatively confident in her.
"Okay, I have to find time to go back to the mainland later.
When I have money, I will also buy a few boats, otherwise I will always be strangled by that old bitch from the Zheng family! "
Shao Xinming set ambitious goals.
He cursed, "They're just a few broken boats. I wonder how long they can show off their power."
Chen Lan pretended not to hear, opened her notebook, and prepared to pick a few buyers with thick waists to join the game.
Foreigners, in particular, are particularly fond of old things.
Once the sheep are in the pen, it would be impolite not to slaughter them.
…
Gao Xiulan was also grumbling at home: "Why are all these electronic goods out of stock lately?"
"Mom, Xiong Chuan wrote in the letter saying that Gao Qishun has been in trouble lately and has been having some trouble with a few factories, which is why things have been delayed."
Lin Xiaotong was correcting students' homework with a pen. Tired of reading the long lecture, she came out of the room to get some fresh air.
Gao Xiulan and Old Xie took out their small treasury when they were bored yesterday. The old couple sat cross-legged on the kang and talked about money.
My hands cramped from counting money, and I even used a spoon to eat this morning.
"Someone is bound to be jealous of this lucrative business. I'd rather sell clothes."
She now has a fixed stall at Xidan Night Market, and Lao Xie also has one.
The two of them live next to each other and can take care of each other.
After dinner, I rode a tricycle with goods on the back. As soon as I put the goods down, people immediately surrounded me.
She has been here since the Xidan Night Market opened in the summer of 1984, and her experience is evident here.
People in that area respectfully called her "Sister Gao", and as for Old Xie, he was naturally "Sister Gao's husband".
I have to say, she felt quite comfortable after hearing this.
Lin Xiaotong took Gao Xiulan's arm and said, "Selling clothes is also good, and it's cleaner."
Sometimes she would go over to lend a hand, but she would keep a low profile and just collect money on the side.
The stalls selling clothes have good customer traffic. The clothes at the night market are not expensive, but the styles are novel.
Sometimes a few people who come together would buy several sets at a time. If Gao Xiulan saw that people bought a lot, she would give them some small items like hairbands.
Lin Xiaotong also asked Xiong Chuan to help her subscribe to fashion magazines and help her put together sets of clothes. The coat rack at Gao Xiulan's stall is always the most eye-catching.
The night market has been booming in recent years. People who live nearby find it hard to get used to not going there for a stroll in the evening.
Those who have been setting up stalls there early on have made more or less money, and it is a bit difficult to squeeze in now.
Gao Xiulan also wanted to save more money and buy an apartment in Pengcheng, so that it would be more convenient for her to communicate with Xiong Chuan.
The occupancy rate of the Xiongchuan community is still very high. I asked people to keep an eye out before to see if anyone was selling a house, but there has been no news until now.
Xie Da Jiao said generously, "There will definitely be more houses in Pengcheng. We'll book one next time."
In the end, it was the women in the family who made the decision, and he just wanted to brag in front of his eldest granddaughter to satisfy his desire.
Orange looked up and said, "How can we live in all these houses?"
The little girl has this worry now.
Lin Xiaotong hugged her daughter and said, "Don't you like it? When it gets very cold in winter, we can go to Pengcheng to see the sea."
Chengzi was a little excited, after all, she had never been to Pengcheng.
"Wow, wow, I really want to go. Grandma, then buy it. I can contribute my piggy bank!"
When you think about it this way, it’s good to have more houses in the family.
Anyway, you can have many houses, but only one home is enough.
Gao Xiulan laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth: "Do you really think you are so rich?"
Orange patted his chest, feeling extremely proud.
"You're rich! Guoqing said you can even pluck a hair and sell it for money!"
Xie Yi happened to hear his daughter's words from the yard while carrying a briefcase.
He yelled, "Oh no! Mom, how did you become Monkey King?"
Gao Xiulan laughed and scolded, "Hey, I think you are the monkey!"
Xie Yi grinned: "I am a ginseng fruit, everyone loves me~"
…
Port city.
Shao Xinming was also shouting and dancing in front of Old Shao like a butterfly.
"Dad! Something happened to the Zheng family's cargo ship!
Fortunately, I didn’t get involved, otherwise the money would have been wasted.”
Lao Shao waved his hands and rubbed his temples.
"Alright, alright, stop playing around. I'm dizzy from all the dancing. It's really going to be hard for the Zheng family to get out of this situation this time."
