On Sunday, at the invitation of Lu Jiaxin, Lu Jiaguang brought Lu An and his three siblings to dinner. Wang Xiaojie worked the night shift yesterday and is now catching up on her sleep at home. Lu Ping was busy with schoolwork and didn't come back. Seeing them making dumplings, Lu Jiaguang washed his hands and rolled up his sleeves to prepare to join them.
Lu Jiaxin said, "Brother, please don't worry. I have something to discuss with you."
Hearing this, he knew that the children must not know about this. He put down his sleeves and followed Lu Jiaxin into the study. He had been here before, but it was very different now. There was an antique shelf with many books on it; there were paintings of ladies hanging on the wall to the right of the desk; there was a three-legged incense burner on the table by the window. On the desk, the pen holder, pen holder, pen washer and other daily necessities were all Yuan blue and white porcelain.
Lu Jiaguang asked, "Did you get these from the antique market?"
Lu Jiaxin hummed and said, "Yes, I bought it because I thought it looked good. Do you think my arrangement looks good?"
I don’t have enough money now, but when I have money in the future, I will replace all of them with authentic items, and the furniture will also be replaced with huanghuali wood or red sandalwood, which will have an antique and charming flavor.
Lu Jiaguang thought it was very elegant. After he sat down, he asked, "Are you planning to purchase the goods for your clothing store from Yangcheng in the future, and then ship them back to Sijiu City to sell?"
Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "No. You are at a critical stage now, how could I hold you back?"
Lu Jiaguang was very pleased. His sister was considerate and sensible. "Jiajie said that buying directly from Yangcheng would earn at least double the profit. Is that true?"
Lu Jiaxin nodded and said, "More than that, if you choose well, two or three times the profit is not a problem. Brother, I know that many people now use their positions to seek personal gain. Those who have backers or don't want to be promoted don't care, but you are still young and can move up, you can't lose the big picture for the sake of small things."
Lu Jiaguang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "It's not as serious as you think. You can ship it back to Sijiu City by train. As long as you pay the freight in full according to the rules, it won't affect me."
"real?"
Lu Jiaguang said: "Of course it's true. I can't joke about my future. Don't do it for now. Wait until the matter is settled in a few days."
With the help of his uncle, his chances of winning were about the same as the other one. He was also afraid of complications, so he rejected Lu Jiajie's request.
With the two things that happened to Jiaxin before, Lu Jiaguang was afraid that Jiaxin would tell others about his affairs, so he didn't tell him the reason.
Lu Jiaxin expressed her understanding, and then said, "Brother, I want to open an antique shop in the ancient capital. But I don't have many connections there, and I'm afraid that if I open a shop, I will be squeezed out."
Lu Jiaguang didn't expect that she would have such an idea, and said, "It takes a lot of money to open an antique shop. Do you have enough money?"
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "I have the capital, and once the store is open, it should be no problem to have both income and expenditure. If you can't afford those rare treasures, I can help introduce buyers and get a commission. But this is just my initial plan, whether it will succeed depends on luck."
Making big money in business requires the right time, place and people.
Lu Jiaguang knew her temper, and since she had started talking, he could no longer persuade her: "I'll say hello to Lao Li when the time comes. But whether it can be done depends on the ability of the store owner."
Lu Jiaxin said she understood: "Brother, I will give you 30% of the shares of this antique shop. But there is a saying in antiques that if you don't open it for three years, you will make a profit for three years after opening it. Only when you make a profit can you get dividends."
Lu Jiaguang said with a straight face: "I want to take the shares of your store, what kind of person will that make me, brother?"
Lu Jiaguang paused for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "Where did you learn all this from?"
Lu Jiaxin lowered her head and said softly, "I have figured out a lot of things in the past month in the ancient capital. It is my luck that you love and protect me, but I cannot ask for it endlessly. Feelings are mutual. You think about me, and I have to think about you too."
"Lu Ping will graduate from college soon, and he may have to take the postgraduate entrance exam in the future. Lu An will also take the college entrance exam next year, and it will be difficult for him to get into college with his grades, and he will need money to work or do business. Lu Zhang and Zhen Zhen's education is also very expensive. Uncle and aunt are getting older and their health is getting worse. Uncle spent more than 300 yuan on medical treatment last year. Everything costs money. You and sister-in-law are under so much pressure, I also want to help you share some of the burden."
Lu Jiaguang said helplessly: "These are not your concerns."
Lu Jiaxin has always believed that feelings are mutual, especially between siblings: "In fact, I have thought about giving you 30% of the shares of the clothing store. But after all, it is in the old city, and I am worried that people will know about it. Those with ulterior motives will spread rumors that you have occupied my property. The antique shop is opened in the ancient capital, which has nothing to do with your work, so don't worry about it."
Lu Jiaguang was silent for a moment and said, "Three shares are too many, just give me two shares!"
I will take one share for myself and give the other share to Lao Li, who will keep my sister away from it. This is a legitimate business, and nothing will go wrong unless the policy changes.
"good."
After getting his promise, Lu Jiaxin asked Master Qian to go find someone. Qian Xiaoxiao knew that his grandfather was doing things for Lu Jiaxin, so he was not worried. However, when he left, he asked Master Qian to come back early.
Master Qian got impatient after hearing this: "How come you become as nagging as an old woman after not seeing you for a few months? I haven't even enjoyed your blessing yet, so how can I bear to die with you?"
Lu Jiaxin felt that the grandparents and grandchildren really had no taboos.
In the evening, Lu Jiaguang told his wife about this matter: "This girl is good at doing business. If she finds good people, the antique shop will definitely make money."
Wang Xiaojie was overjoyed: "Jia Xin is so lucky, we are also blessed with it."
Lu Jiaguang told her this specifically because he noticed that she had been restless recently, always talking about someone's family buying a big house and so on, and was worried that her mind would slip and she would be tempted and go astray: "I know that the men of many of your colleagues have made money, but we can't take the dirty money. It's okay if we don't investigate now, but once we investigate, you will be fired at the least and imprisoned at the worst. If I fail, what will happen to you and your four children in the future?"
Wang Xiaojie's heart skipped a beat: "I'm sorry, I won't do it again."
There is no harm without comparison. Her colleagues and subordinates used to have worse conditions than her, but now their families are better off and not only have they become more fashionable, but they also live in big houses. Even Lu Jiajie used to live in his mother-in-law's house, but now he lives in a big house. But their family of six is still squeezed into a house of more than 50 square meters. They will never be able to live in a big house with two people's salary.
Lu Jiaguang said: "Just keep this to yourself, don't tell anyone."
"Why are you worrying so much? There's no way I could tell anyone about such a big thing."
