After much thought, Lu Jiaxin decided to ask Su Heyuan for help regarding the store.
Su Heyuan said in astonishment: "Give me the money to buy the shop, and you will also pay the interest on the loan in the future, and then transfer it back to your name after a while. The shop is already in your name, why are you going through so much trouble? Do you have so much money to burn?"
A single purchase and sale costs millions in taxes and loan interest.
Lu Jiaxin explained the reason for doing so: "The storefront has great potential for appreciation, and once it is sold, it cannot be bought back."
After hearing this, Su Heyuan also felt that this store was too hot to handle: "Are you still going to donate this money to the orphanage?"
Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. I'll decide when the money arrives."
Because mortgage purchases require bank loans, buyers need to wait for some time before receiving the full payment.
"OK."
As soon as she passed the customs, Lu Jiaxin saw Su Heming. This time he was wearing a round-neck floral short-sleeved T-shirt, white suit pants, and a pair of black pointed leather shoes.
Seeing Lu Jiaxin staring at his clothes, Su Heming smiled and said, "It looks good, doesn't it? Everyone praises me for my taste."
Lu Jiaxin followed his words and said, "Yes, this outfit is indeed beautiful."
Su Heming said, "Let's go, let's go, the car is waiting outside, let's go to the hotel to put our things down, and then go to Gaodi Street for a walk."
Lu Jiaxin's flight is at 9am tomorrow, so she can go shopping in Guangzhou today. But after staying in Hong Kong for too long, she has no interest in Gaudi Street: "I don't want to go shopping now, let's go to the beach to pick up shells in the afternoon!"
As for taking a batch of clothes to sell in Gaudi Street, she didn't want to bother with that. This time she would sell the shop to Xiaoqiu, and if she didn't want it, she could sell it. A palm-sized shop was not worth her bother.
Su Heming smiled and said, "Gaodi Street is now more prosperous and lively than before."
"No matter how prosperous it is, can it be more prosperous than Hong Kong City?"
Su Heming complained: "Sister Jiaxin, you have changed. You are no longer the person I knew."
"Speak human language."
Su Heming stopped smiling and said sternly, "Jia Xin, you can't look down on the mainland. The mainland can't compare to Hong Kong City now, but I believe it will get better and better in the future, and one day it will surpass Hong Kong City."
What does this have to do with that?
Lu Jiaxin looked at him and said doubtfully, "The mainland is where I was born and raised, how could I possibly despise it? It's just a fact that the mainland cannot compare to Hong Kong, and we must face up to it and narrow the gap."
Su Heming realized that he had misunderstood, and said, "Sister Jiaxin, I'm sorry! I've met several people recently who kept saying how good Hong Kong and the American island country are, and how bad the mainland is. One time I couldn't stand it anymore, so I beat up those two bastards."
Lu Jiaxin couldn't help but sigh: "If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is an eternal truth, but it will get better slowly."
Not to mention now, even in forty years, there will still be people bragging about how America is better than the island countries! For such people, she just wants to say, get out of here, no one cares.
Su Heming said, "As long as you don't change, I don't care about those people. I will scold them if I see them. If I can't scold them enough, I will give them a beating."
We played at the beach for more than three hours in the afternoon, picked up a lot of shells, and had dinner at the fisherman's house. They were all freshly caught fish, very fresh.
After eating, they took a bus to Yangcheng. On the way, Su Heming said, "Jiaxin, since you like the beach so much, you can buy a piece of land and build a villa by the sea."
Lu Jiaxin expressed no interest and expressed her own thoughts.
Lu Jiaxin nodded and said, "The garden villa over at Repulse Bay will cost 50 or 60 million. In order to realize my dream soon, I have to continue to work hard."
"You're really bold."
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "You always have to have dreams, otherwise you're just like a salted fish."
Su Heming smiled and said, "My elder brother always wants me to learn from you, but I can't do it. In life, it's enough to have food and drink. Why think so much? Today you want a villa, tomorrow you want a yacht, and the day after tomorrow you want a private jet. You'll be exhausted!"
Gu Wenfeng looked strange, because these were the things Lu Jiaxin said she wanted to buy.
Lu Jiaxin did not test Su Heming and said, "Everyone's pursuit is different. You think simple food is good, but I want to eat well, drink well and have fun. And to achieve this goal, you have to make money well."
Su Heming said, "You make money to eat, drink and have fun, but my brother makes money to trample those who bully and look down on him. I think it's tiring to live like that, but it's a pity that he won't listen no matter how much I persuade him."
Lu Jiaxin disagreed with his idea and said, "He values his dignity. It's not wrong for him to want to defeat and trample others under his feet when they mock and insult him."
Everyone values different things and makes different choices, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
Su Heming looked at Lu Jiaxin with resentment and said, "It would be great if you were my biological sister! Unlike my brother, who complains about me being lazy every day. Well, it's enough to earn enough, why do you need so much money!"
As an outsider, she couldn't interfere in the brothers' affairs. Lu Jiaxin changed the subject and talked about something else.
She stayed at the Swan Hotel that night and had a flight at 9 o'clock the next day. After getting off the plane, Lu Jiaxin took a taxi back to her home on Guangming Road.
When they arrived, the door was locked. Lu Jiaxin had the key in her hand. She took the key and was about to go up to open the door, but unexpectedly someone called her.
A man in uniform looked at Lu Jiaxin and asked, "Are you looking for Aunt Lu and the others? They are setting up a stall on Xiushui Street and won't be back until the afternoon."
Lu Jiaxin glanced at him and said, "You look unfamiliar. Did you just move in?"
"How do you know?"
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Because I am the owner of this house, and you don't know me, it is possible that you moved here after I left."
The man in uniform yelled, "So you are Comrade Lu? Sorry, sorry, I didn't know. I hope I didn't delay you."
"No, no, just go and do your thing!"
After opening the door and going in, Lu Jiaxin said to Gu Wenfeng: "Lock the door. If someone knocks on the door later, just say I'm asleep. Don't let them in."
There are no secrets in the alleys. Someone will probably come to visit soon and ask you all kinds of questions. The best way to avoid this is to not let them in. Anyway, she will move to the house in Shichahai after it is renovated. She probably won't come here again in the future, so she is not afraid of offending them.
Gu Wenfeng said: "Your eldest brother and second brother will get the news and rush over soon."
Lu Jiaxin didn't care: "I'm here. Alas, it's really not as convenient as Hong Kong now, otherwise I would have bought incense and candles and rented a car to go see my mother."
Gu Wenfeng was used to living in Hong Kong. When he came back, he found that many places in the city needed improvement. He said, "Let's hire a car and go!"
"Um."
