Master Qian said cheerfully: "Isn't this a surprise for you? I have to tell you in advance, you are not so happy, right?"

Although Qian Xiaoxiao was happy, she didn't like this: "If you had told me you were coming back today, I would have bought you some clothes. But I'm leaving tomorrow, and I don't have time to buy any now."

Master Qian said that he had more clothes than he could wear and didn't need to buy any more.

Qian Xiaoxiao just listened to this, and it would be foolish to believe it. But she didn't say much, Grandpa must have something to do this time: "Grandpa, go take a shower first, I'll go tell Sister Xin."

Having stayed here for more than half a year, she knew that Lu Jiaxin loved cleanliness. Grandpa had been sitting on the train for so long that his body smelled, and Sister Xin would definitely not be able to stand it if he didn't wash it clean.

"Make me something to eat. I'm hungry."

"Okay, there are dumplings in the refrigerator. I'll cook you a bowl of three-fresh dumplings." Qian Xiaoxiao said. They can just use the ingredients at home to cook whatever they want. This is what Xiaoxiao likes most about Lu Jiaxin. Not to mention other people's homes, even in her own home, her mother locks up the bacon and sausages. She only cuts some and steams them when there are guests or happy events.

After eating and drinking, Master Qian told Lu Jiaxin about the situation in Gudu: "The antique shop received fifteen items last month, six of which were exquisite. One of them was an ancient painting. Old Sun said it was by Zheng Banqiao and it was very valuable. I came here in a hurry this time, otherwise I would have gone to Gudu to bring the painting back."

At first, Lu Jiaxin said that she would only accept genuine items, but Old Sun thought that a store must have something to sell to survive. After communication, Lu Jiaxin agreed, but she didn't want too many items, which would take up a lot of cash.

Lu Jiaxin said there was no rush about this matter.

Master Qian asked, "How can I contact you when you go to Hong Kong City?"

Lu Jiaxin had thought of this a long time ago. She said, "I have asked a friend to rent a house in Pengcheng. Xue Mao and Xiao Xiao will stay there temporarily. If you have anything important to say, call my friend and ask him to tell me."

Some places cannot be reached by phone. And she will definitely stay at her aunt's place when she first arrives, so many things are inconvenient to say. She won't have to worry about these things when she rents a house and moves out to settle down.

Master Qian talked about orchids again. So far, he has purchased more than 200 pots of orchids from various places. The most common of them are Clivia, which accounts for nearly half. "We have purchased so many orchids. Now the price has risen. If we purchase more, the price will be even higher. Miss Lu, I think more than 200 pots are enough. There is no need to purchase more."

Lu Jiaxin knew that he was an old hand and did this for safety. She was about to speak when something suddenly occurred to her.

Master Qian saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time and didn't dare to interrupt her, so he just sat there and waited quietly.

After a while, Lu Jiaxin said, "If Yun Province doesn't work, we can go to another place. But this time we only accept Clivia, not other varieties of orchids."

Originally, she only remembered that orchids suddenly became popular in a certain province the next year, and she just remembered that the orchid that was popular there was Clivia.

Master Qian felt that he could not run over, so he asked tentatively: "Miss Lu, can I ask my old friends to help? They can earn some money to supplement the family expenses, and you can also harvest more Clivia."

After that, he added: "Don't worry, they are all reliable."

Lu Jiaxin agreed: "Their monthly salary is 260 yuan. If nothing goes wrong within a year, I will give them a bonus of 3,000 yuan each. If all the flowers die or the flowers they harvest are not Clivia, not only will they not get the bonus, I will also hold them accountable."

Master Qian smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. They will definitely do their best."

Lu Jiaxin gave him 30,000 yuan and wrote a phone number: "If the money is not enough, you can call Su Heming and he will tell me. If you don't need it urgently, I will go to Hong Kong to give you the money. If you need it urgently, I will ask him to pay it first."

When she arrived in Hong Kong, she had to spend all the money she had. She couldn't keep so much cash in her hands. Money in your hands is dead. It can only make money if it is circulated.

"Okay." Master Qian said. Gu Wenfeng said that this girl was good at making money, so he never worried that she would be short of money.

Lu Jiaxin said one more thing: "Xiaoxiao said she will be wherever I am. I have already agreed. Let her stay in Pengcheng for a year to learn Cantonese well. I will take her over next year at the latest."

Master Qian naturally had no objection: "Xiao Xiao will go to Gangcheng with you, so we won't buy a house in Sijiucheng. Please help me buy her a house in Gangcheng when the time comes."

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "We can buy her a house in Hong Kong City, but the housing prices in Hong Kong City are high. The average area costs three to four thousand per square meter. Buying her a house of 50 square meters will cost more than 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is equivalent to 70,000 to 80,000 Chinese yuan."

Master Qian's eyes popped out: "Are houses in Gangcheng so expensive?"

Seeing her nod, Master Qian immediately changed his mind: "Forget it, let's buy a piece of land in Pengcheng and build it ourselves! She will follow you anyway, and she won't be able to live in the house if we buy one in Gangcheng."

Lu Jiaxin gave him a suggestion: "When the time comes, you can buy a large piece of land and build three houses. Give each of your three grandchildren a house. They won't complain if you treat them equally."

"They may not go to Pengcheng in the future."

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "There will be more and more factories in Pengcheng in the future. It will be easier for my little brother and sister to find jobs in Pengcheng when they grow up. It doesn't matter if they don't go to Pengcheng. The house can be rented out or sold."

Master Qian didn't know how to make money, but he knew that Lu Jiaxin was very capable, and he would do what she said: "Okay, I'll listen to you and build three houses."

He currently earns 300 yuan a month, and Lu Jiaxin promised to pay him 20,000 yuan after both the antique shop and the orchid business are done. Land and houses are not expensive now, so it is no problem to build three buildings with this money.

In the evening, Wang Xiaojie came with her four children, but Lu Jiaguang could not come because he had to deal with an emergency in the afternoon.

After Lu Ping came over, he said to her, "Aunt, I've consulted and found out that I can only take the postgraduate entrance examination after working for two years. My teacher is very supportive of me taking the postgraduate entrance examination and also said that if I have the opportunity to study abroad now that the country is open, it will be very helpful for my future."

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "You should start preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination now, and your chances of passing will be higher. As for studying abroad, this is not something you should consider now. Run first and then think about flying, don't aim too high."

Lu Ping smiled shyly: "I know your aunt."

I have been very busy these days and can only update twice. I will resume updating three times starting from the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
