Chapter 286 Father Says Goodbye, Son Smiles
"We're here." As the car gradually stopped, Gao Mingcheng said to Fan Licheng, motioning him to put on his schoolbag.
"Licheng!" A well-dressed middle-aged man stood under the car and looked towards the front of the car. When he saw Fan Licheng, he instantly smiled.
"Dad." Fan Licheng called out obediently, and then his father opened the car door from outside, reached out and carried him out of the car.
Gao Mingcheng also glanced at the man a few times. He had never seen this man before when he came to deliver the goods. The unloading of the goods was handled by this man's subordinates.
Now looking at him, I find that he is indeed similar to Fan Licheng, a handsome guy with regular features, thick eyebrows and big eyes.
He jumped out of the car and took the spare clothes that Fan Licheng had brought with him.
"Is that Gao Mingcheng? I heard Jin Feng talk about you. I feel at ease asking you to deliver the goods for me!" Fan Chengyao said politely, and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Gao Mingcheng.
"I heard that you are in the clothing business now? Are you coming here to buy goods? I happen to know the owner of a clothing factory. The clothes they produce are selling very well. If there is anything you need, I will ask him to give you the lowest price!"
Fan Chengyao behaved very generously and cheerfully. In just a few words, he was like a real brother to Director Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng was also a little surprised, but that's how the national situation and connections work. With someone to lead the way and introduce you, you can get the latest models and the lowest prices.
People with connections buy goods directly from the factories and take away the best and newest models. Only those without connections have to choose and negotiate prices in the wholesale market.
Gao Mingcheng indeed had no connections in the clothing business, but with some experience from later life, he knew which clothes sold well, so he just picked those out and purchased them.
But now there is an opportunity to make money right at his doorstep, it would be really boring if he refused it!
Gao Mingcheng smiled cheerfully and said immediately, "Then I'll trouble you, Boss Fan. I'm here just to buy some goods this time."
"Okay, okay. Jin Feng and I are brothers, and you and Jin Feng are brothers too. So we are all brothers! Brothers should help each other. This is the business card of the garment factory. When you go there, find Director Ouyang and say that I introduced you!" Fan Chengyao took out a business card that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng took it and looked down. On it were written the address of the garment factory, a person's name, and a landline phone number.
He remembered that at the end of 1998, mobile phones were already available in Guangdong. But now it is mid-January 1998, so there are still relatively few people using mobile phones. However, business people have already installed landline phones.
Just as he was thinking about the cell phone, suddenly a ring rang and one of his men handed a brand new cell phone to Fan Chengyao.
Oh no!
Catch a big brother!
He is indeed a rich man!
Fan Chengyao smiled politely at Gao Mingcheng and said, "I'll take a call first."
Gao Mingcheng made a gesture to please help yourself.
Fan Chengyao walked a few steps to the side before picking up the phone and talking to the person on the other end.
At this time, Fan Licheng stood beside Gao Mingcheng and asked in a low voice: "What is the big brick in my father's hand?"
Gao Mingcheng said: "That thing is a mobile phone. You see, it is not like a landline phone that is fixed in one place by a telephone line. It can be moved."
"Uncle Gao, you know so much!" Fan Licheng looked at Gao Mingcheng with admiration.
Originally, he and Gao Mingcheng got along quite well, because Gao Mingcheng never treated him as an ignorant kid from beginning to end, so when talking to Gao Mingcheng, he felt a sense of respect as an equal, so he unconsciously said some words that were on his mind.
But since seeing Gao Mingcheng easily subdue five robbers, Fan Licheng thought Gao Mingcheng was so handsome!
He then asked, "Then why doesn't my dad take it himself?"
Gao Mingcheng glanced at Fan Chengyao's men and said dimly, "You said it was a big brick. That thing is very heavy. Why do you want to carry it yourself when your men are holding it?"
"Oh, that's true." Fan Licheng glanced at the subordinate who was holding the mobile phone.
When the subordinate saw him looking at him, he revealed a somewhat ferocious smile, and scared Fan Licheng so much that he immediately looked away.
It's an eyesore!
At this time, Fan Chengyao's face turned serious. During the call, he glanced at Gao Mingcheng. Gao Mingcheng was talking to his son and he heard what they said.
He recalled Xiao Jinfeng's evaluation of Gao Mingcheng, saying that Gao Mingcheng was a capable and visionary person, but he lacked a bit of drive.
I heard that he has contracted a small hill in the village and plans to stay in the village in the future.
Fan Chengyao frowned and thought, this is such a waste of resources!
"Okay, I got it." Fan Chengyao hung up the phone, walked towards Gao Mingcheng, and handed the mobile phone to his subordinate.
"Brother Mingcheng! I just learned about what happened to you on the road. Thank you for your help. You saved my truckload of goods and my son's safety! Thank you, thank you!" This time Fan Chengyao's attitude was more polite and he thanked me repeatedly.
Upon hearing this, Gao Mingcheng guessed that this was related to the phone call Fan Chengyao had just received.
Forty minutes ago, they encountered a carjacking, but it only took them five minutes to deal with the carjackers, and then they ran all the way here.
Fan Chengyao was able to receive the call now, which was considered quick for him to find out.
Gao Mingcheng did not take too much credit and simply said: "This is what I should do. I will do everything I can to ensure the safety of people and vehicles. Boss Fan, please unload the goods quickly!"
"Okay, you guys, hurry up and unload the goods!" Fan Chengyao said to his men standing nearby. Those people immediately went forward to work, opened the car door, and began to unload the goods.
"Brother Mingcheng, it's getting late. Let's have lunch together at noon. After lunch, the goods will be unloaded." Fan Chengyao invited with a smile. Gao Mingcheng did not refuse and readily agreed.
So Fan Chengyao took them and walked about 500 meters to a magnificently decorated store. The store was very large and filled with exquisite porcelain.
Fan Chengyao smiled and said, "This is my store. In addition to this store, there is another store on another street. Let's have a simple meal at home at noon today. My wife's cooking skills are not bad. Now she can also cook some Cantonese dishes. Mingcheng, are you used to Cantonese food?"
"I'm used to it." Gao Mingcheng is not picky about food. Gan cuisine has its own flavor, and Cantonese cuisine has its own advantages.
In later times, you can easily eat a variety of cuisines in any big city, but now you can only enjoy the local specialties when you go to the local area.
Led by Fan Chengyao, they went up the stairs to the second floor.
The second floor is also well decorated, and most of the space is used as a large living room, which is furnished with some fine tea sets, various teas and famous wines.
Obviously, this is where Fan Chengyao entertains guests, and the decoration style is more commercial than residential.
But this building is very tall, and the room they live in should be on the third floor.
Sure enough, Fan Chengyao said to Fan Licheng, "Go upstairs and ask your Aunt Yan to come down to cook, and then stay there and play with your sister for a while."
Fan Licheng hung his face and refused to move.
He didn't like his new mother, so naturally he didn't like the sister she gave birth to. Besides, it was obviously more fun to stay here.
Fan Chengyao's face darkened, and he seemed to be angry. But Fan Licheng was not afraid at all, and his face was stubborn.
Gao Mingcheng watched the confrontation between father and son, and then said: "Licheng is very well behaved. If he doesn't want to go, forget it. Don't force him."
Fan Licheng smiled brightly when he heard this, and quickly stood up and said, "I'll go call Aunt Yan down. She's a pretty good cook. She also said that if you want to capture a man's heart, you have to capture his stomach first. My father married her because he liked the food she cooked."
As soon as these words were spoken, Gao Mingcheng burst into laughter, while Fan Chengyao was embarrassed and could only glare at his son implicitly. However, at this time, Fan Licheng had already quickly ran upstairs.
