Chapter 198 A Strange Beautiful Woman
Lin Xiangdong has a good business acumen and practical ability. In just half a year, the waste recycling station has become very successful.
At the same time, he also discovered another way to make money, that is, the waste in the county town is different from the waste in the big city.
In big cities, there are abandoned bicycles, broken radios... all kinds of things that can be collected cheaply, and then you can tinker with them, find some parts and accessories to repair and restore them, and they will be as good as new.
When these second-hand home appliances are placed in the county town, many people rush to buy them and the prices are high.
You can make a lot of profit from the difference between the two.
In small towns, especially in villages, city dwellers like the little gadgets such as antique vases and wooden furniture, and they can sell them for a good price even if they are worn out.
As a result, Lin Xiangdong is now running back and forth all the time and is very busy.
Lin Xiangdong felt that Jiang Tang was paying attention to his clothes, which was a brand new suit.
He touched his collar sheepishly and said with a smile, "I just came back from the city. This is how you have to dress when doing business with city people. You have to dress like a respectable person. Actually, this suit is too tight, and I'm not used to it."
Jiang Tang praised, "This suit suits you very well. It looks good."
"Really?" Lin Xiangdong's eyes lit up after being praised, and his cheerful demeanor returned. He told Jiang Tang about recent events, "...The dressing box we picked up in the village last time was a genuine one! It's an antique from the Qing Dynasty! I went to the city today to discuss this deal, and I sold it for this amount in total."
Lin Xiangdong waved one hand towards Jiang Tang, with all five fingers spread out.
It’s five thousand.
When I collected it in the village, it only cost fifty.
At that time, Lin Xiangdong thought it was expensive. A broken wooden box cost fifty yuan, and he was not willing to accept it even if he was offered five yuan.
But Jiang Tang said it was a good thing, fifty was fifty, and he bought it without bargaining.
Lin Xiangdong has been with Jiang Tang for so long and always listens to what Jiang Tang says, because Jiang Tang has never made a mistake and can tell the real from the fake any treasure she sees.
The same thing happened this time.
This dressing box was kept in the city for seven days when an old lady immediately took a fancy to it and treasured it so much that she bought it for five thousand yuan.
Lin Xiangdong felt in his pocket and took out a passbook and handed it to Jiang Tang, "Comrade Jiang, the 5,000 yuan for the dressing box and this month's store revenue are all here, take a look."
Jiang Tang had previously looked at the store's account book, glanced at the number on the passbook, and after confirming that there was no problem, he put the passbook away.
Their business is now big and they have a lot of money every month, so they can no longer do cash transactions like before. Passbooks are more convenient to use.
This time Jiang Tang met Lin Xiangdong, not only to get money, but also to ask Lin Xiangdong for a favor.
"Xiangdong, have you bought the thing I asked you to do?"
"I bought it," Lin Xiangdong nodded repeatedly. "Comrade Jiang, don't worry. How could I forget what you asked me to do? I bought all the New Year's goods you wanted at the department store in the city. They have everything, including that electronic keyboard you mentioned."
Speaking of this, Lin Xiangdong smiled even more happily.
"I didn't know what an electronic keyboard was before, but now I've really opened my eyes. It's really a good thing. I bought two, one for your family and one for my sister, so they can open their eyes."
Lin Xiangdong is now a small boss. His business is big and he makes a lot of money. His family's living conditions have improved. His younger brothers and sisters can live a good life, wear new clothes, and even afford new toys like electronic keyboards.
He is a grateful person. He knows that all these good days are due to Jiang Tang's initial support, so he is especially grateful to Jiang Tang.
Lin Xiangdong continued, "Those things are too much, Comrade Jiang. It's not convenient for you to carry them. I'll send them to your family compound after dinner."
"Okay, thank you for your help. Come eat, eat more, it's my treat today."
"Then I won't be polite."
The two of them ate the delicious meal, their bodies filled with happiness and joy.
After coming out of the state-owned restaurant, Lin Xiangdong originally wanted to send Jiang Tang directly back to his family compound and bring the New Year's goods that Jiang Tang wanted. Lin Xiangdong also prepared some things for Jiang Tang personally. He was afraid that Jiang Tang would not accept them, so he sneaked in.
But there was a small accident.
When they walked out of the state-owned hotel, a person on the road bumped into Jiang Tang as if he had no eyes.
Because it happened so suddenly, Jiang Tang and Lin Xiangdong didn't have time to react before they bumped into each other.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? How do you walk? How can you bump into people like that?" Lin Xiangdong quickly protected Jiang Tang and shouted at the man.
Jiang Tang was knocked back a few steps. He didn't fall and wasn't hurt, but he felt like the man did it on purpose.
She looked at the other person for a few seconds. She was a beautiful woman in her thirties with an elegant appearance. She was wearing a brown wool coat with an old sweater underneath and a small leather bag in her hand.
Judging from his clothes and appearance, he is a rich man.
In this way, it is not a scam.
When Jiang Tang was looking at the other person, the other person was also looking at Jiang Tang. The look in his eyes seemed to indicate that he knew Jiang Tang, but Jiang Tang was very sure that she did not know this person.
Seeing that Lin Xiangdong was furious and fearing a quarrel, Jiang Tang held him back.
"Xiangdong, forget it. It must have been an accident. I'm fine anyway."
Lin Xiangdong endured it for a moment and warned the other person, "Be careful when you walk next time. You're lucky nothing happened this time, but what if something did happen?"
Things should have ended here, but the beautiful woman suddenly touched her belly, frowned and groaned.
"Ah... I... my stomach hurts..."
As the beautiful woman tightened her arms, Jiang Tang could see that beneath her loose wool coat, she had a slightly bulging belly.
She is pregnant, probably three or four months.
Lin Xiangdong said hurriedly, "You...you're pregnant? Are you really trying to blackmail me? Judging from the way you're dressed, you don't look like someone who's short of money, so why would you do something like that?"
"I... I don't want money. I... my stomach hurts and I want to go to the hospital. Can you take me to the hospital?" The beautiful woman held her stomach with both hands, frowned, and looked very distressed.
Jiang Tang walked towards the beautiful woman and was pulled back by Lin Xiangdong.
Lin Xiangdong advised, "Comrade Jiang, you can't go over there. If you take her to the hospital, you might get tangled up with her and you won't be able to get rid of her."
"It's okay." Jiang Tang continued walking towards the beautiful woman and said, "The baby in her belly is important. No matter what, let's get her to the hospital first."
