Chapter 441 Comfort
In his previous life, Gao Mingcheng knew a lot of people in the business world, but he never thought of contacting those people again in this life because there was no need and they were no longer on the same path.
In this life, he gave up ineffective socializing and made very few friends, but every friend was able to help each other.
He took a second-hand piano from Fan Chengyao's warehouse. Although it was second-hand, the workmanship and style were extremely beautiful. Even though Gao Mingcheng didn't know how to play the piano, he felt that this piano was very high-end when he saw it.
As for musical instruments such as guitars and flutes, which were relatively cheap, Fan Chengyao did not have them in his warehouse, so he went to a musical instrument store to buy them himself.
After buying everything he needed, Gao Mingcheng loaded a truck with goods requested by the transport company's customers and prepared to return to the county.
Before leaving, Fan Chengyao said, "Remember to send Licheng to me during the summer vacation!"
Gao Mingcheng made an OK gesture to him and responded simply: "Okay!"
Fan Chengyao helped him a lot, so he had no choice but to take on the task of escorting Fan Licheng!
He returned all the way to the county, unloaded the goods the customer wanted, and then drove the truck directly to Gao Guobing's doorstep.
The piano is very large, and it is not convenient to put it in the clothing store where Gao Mingcheng lives. Since the kindergarten teacher training is conducted at Gao Guobing's home, he simply moved the piano here.
It was already afternoon, and Gao Guobing and his wife were just home from get off work.
"Let me help you!" Gao Guobing saw that the piano in the carriage was so big, so he stepped forward to help.
Although he was nearly fifty years old, he still had a lot of strength. With the joint efforts of the two, the piano was finally placed safely in the living room.
Gao Mingcheng opened the outer packaging box and showed the Yamaha piano to Gao Guobing and his wife.
"It's so beautiful! It's much more beautiful than the piano in Feifei's house! Oh, how much did it cost!" Zhao Dongmei's eyes lit up when she saw this Yamaha piano.
She also can't play these instruments, but most of Li Fei's family members work in the Education Bureau and are high school teachers, so their family has a stronger literary and artistic atmosphere.
Li Fei learned piano from her elders since she was a child. In that era, she was considered a rich girl in a small county town.
So the list that Li Fei gave included a requirement for a piano, because she felt that with a piano, the entire kindergarten would be much more classy.
Gao Mingcheng opened the piano cover and played the keys casually with his fingers. Even though he played randomly, the sound quality was very nice.
When Zhao Dongmei saw this, she was also eager to try it, but she was afraid that the instrument would be damaged.
Gao Mingcheng smiled and said, "This is a piano made in China. The quality is impeccable. It's just a matter of playing it. How can it possibly break? Uncle, aunt, you all try it!"
Gao Mingcheng invited them to feel the sensation of playing the piano keys.
The two of them then pressed a few keys and suddenly felt like a new world had opened up.
"Oh, this is really interesting!" Zhao Dongmei's face was full of smiles. Seeing that it was getting late, she asked Gao Mingcheng to stay here for dinner.
But Gao Mingcheng refused.
"No, I've been out for a few days and I really missed Xiao Xuxu."
After hearing this, Zhao Dongmei didn't want to keep him.
Gao Mingcheng drove the truck to the clothing store and unloaded two large bags of new clothing, as well as musical instruments such as guitars and flutes, and some books.
The piano is too big, so it can only be placed in Gao Guobing's home first, but the guitar and flute don't take up much space, so he took them home first to let his family see them.
Sure enough, everyone was quite curious when they saw the guitar.
A guitar costs more than two hundred yuan, so Gao Mingcheng bought three. Each teacher will have one, and the students will take turns learning to play.
Flutes were cheaper, so Gao Mingcheng bought ten of them. He also bought some small and inexpensive musical instruments such as the Hulusi, big gong, small gong, bells, wooden sticks and drums.
After Gao Mingcheng unloaded all the goods, he went to hug the little Xuxu that he had been thinking about so much. As for many other people, they all gathered around the musical instruments, and they were all curious and excited.
After playing with Xiao Xuxu for a while, Gao Mingcheng handed Xiao Xuxu to Hu Yinchen.
He said, "I'm going to go return the truck first."
As he said this, he drove the truck to the transportation company.
There were not many customers in the store at this time, so everyone was playing with the instruments.
Luo Li looked at these musical instruments with envy in her eyes. She said, "Although I can't play these, I can whistle and make sounds with leaves."
Gao Shufang said excitedly: "I can also make sounds with leaves! Bamboo leaves are easy to blow, and there are also oval leaves that are easy to blow. The sound they make is very loud!"
Luo Li said unyieldingly: "I can play a short tune!"
Luo Li had never studied music theory or musical notation, and she played entirely based on her feelings. The tune she played was naturally not very standard, but people who were familiar with the tune could tell what it was.
Gao Shufang blinked. This was not comparable because she could only blow out some sound, but not in tune.
She touched the guitar, which had a good texture, and said, "The guitar my second brother bought is even more beautiful than the one on TV!"
She noticed that the guitar was beautiful, but many beauties notice that the money spent must also be beautiful.
She couldn't help but say, "Your second brother is a man who spends money lavishly. They say you get what you pay for. The guitar he bought is so beautiful, it must be very expensive!"
The sister-in-law complained about the second brother, and Gao Shufang, the younger sister-in-law, stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.
After Gao Mingcheng returned the car, Xuanyuemei pulled Gao Mingcheng aside and planned to listen to his account statement.
What could Gao Mingcheng do? He naturally told the accounts one by one, including how much the piano cost, how much the guitar cost, and how much other miscellaneous items cost.
In the end, the money in his pocket was almost cleaner than his face!
Manyi took a deep breath and said in disbelief: "You also borrowed 5,000 yuan from Fan Chengyao?"
Gao Mingcheng blinked innocently: "We just need to bring some goods back. It's time to put new summer styles in the store."
The clothing store mainly sells mid- to high-end brands. If it fails to launch new products in a timely manner, it will lose its top customers.
Although there were not many customers, they spent a lot!
Selling one order can earn you the money of three orders of mid-range clothing, and it also helps the clothing store maintain its status.
When she heard that it was for purchasing goods, Xuanyuemei held back from scolding him.
But I couldn't help but complain: "Then you should save money! Look at the guitar you bought, it's more beautiful than any guitar you've seen on TV!"
Gao Mingcheng touched his nose, feeling a little guilty this time.
Compared to the piano, the guitar is not expensive, most of them cost around one hundred to two hundred yuan.
But you have to compare the goods before you shop!
If you look at a guitar that costs over a hundred yuan by itself, you may think it is pretty good, but if you compare it with a guitar that costs over two hundred yuan, you really can't buy the one that costs over a hundred yuan against your conscience - unless you don't have enough money!
So Gao Mingcheng fell into the trap of the music store. Under the visual effects of the two and the lobbying of the store owner, he still bought the expensive one.
As for being better than those on TV, that’s because some of the programs on TV were filmed several years ago, so naturally they seem a bit outdated now.
Gao Mingcheng knew that sometimes he couldn't compete with a woman, so he began to talk about other things: "When the summer vacation comes, I have to go to Yangcheng to send Fan Licheng to his father. So in a few days, I will go back to Gaojia Village again, shake the honey in the beehive, and then take it to Yangcheng to sell."
"Don't worry, even though I spent a lot, I can still make it back. Anyway, the money has been spent, so just focus on studying with Li Fei and the others."
Although many beautiful women have quick tempers, they are also easily appeased. After hearing the promises made by Gao Mingcheng, they feel that life is still full of hope.
She thought for a moment and said, "The clothing store is the biggest source of income for our family now, so when you go back to shake the honey, I won't go back. I have to stay here and try to sell more clothes!"
Stimulated by the lack of money, many beauties instantly became full of energy!
