Chapter 319: Surprised or Unexpected
Fan Licheng didn't know when he fell asleep, but when he woke up, he was lying on the bed, with sunlight slanting in from the window and shining into the room.
He sat up, rubbed his eyes, and turned around to look for Gao Mingcheng, but there was no one else in the room.
His coat and trousers were beside the bed and his shoes were under the bed, so he put on his clothes and shoes before opening the door.
As soon as I opened the door, a chill hit me in the face. Even though there was sunshine, it was still cold in the winter morning.
"Hey, you're awake." As soon as the door opened, Gao Mingcheng appeared outside.
"Uncle Gao, where is this? It doesn't look like a hotel." Fan Licheng said.
The layout and decoration of the hotel are roughly the same, but this place is obviously more like a residential house.
"This is a homestay. There is a yard for parking and the rent is cheap. It's just for one night anyway. Come, follow me to the yard outside to wash up, and then we'll leave after breakfast." Gao Mingcheng led Fan Licheng to the yard.
This is a house located on the side of the road with a large yard and rooms on the front and left and right sides. They live in the house on the right. There are two faucets on the side of the yard where they wash.
The conditions are much worse than those of a hotel, let alone those of hotels in Hong Kong.
In particular, the quilt he was covering himself with had become a little hard, and there was an indescribable musty smell, but Fan Licheng could only hold his nose and accept it.
After washing his face with ice-cold tap water, Fan Licheng felt that his hands and face were frozen.
Seeing him like this, Gao Mingcheng laughed unceremoniously and said, "Your small body is not good enough, you need to practice! Didn't your parents find a master for you to practice martial arts?"
"My parents hope that I will apply to a school in the capital in the future." Fan Licheng said without any context.
Gao Mingcheng didn't understand at first. What does applying to a school in the capital have to do with practicing martial arts?
But then he understood. It seemed that Fan Chengyao and his wife were not going to let Fan Licheng get involved in their business, but instead hoped that he could go into politics in the future.
So Fan Licheng should have done some training to strengthen his body, but he did not learn some professional martial arts.
Gao Mingcheng thought about Fan Licheng's situation and felt that it would be a good idea for him to take this path.
He didn’t know who Fan Licheng’s mother was before, but after listening to what Boss Cai and the others said, he suddenly remembered some memories of his previous life.
Damn...he is really awesome and a ruthless guy!
After her divorce, she went to Hong Kong, and was soon spotted by an illegitimate son of a wealthy family, who pursued her passionately and eventually married her. After that, the illegitimate son was recognized by the wealthy family and competed with other brothers and sisters for resources. Although he became the ultimate winner, the process was also full of hardships and dangers.
However, the property and power in Hong Kong can be left to Fan Licheng's half-sister and half-brother, but not to him.
The only thing he could inherit was Fan Chengyao's side, but Fan Chengyao obviously had other ideas.
"Let's go and have breakfast." Gao Mingcheng took Fan Licheng to have breakfast. Fan Licheng followed him, but looked at him from time to time, as if thinking about something.
From the time they met until now, he had deliberately revealed a lot of information. Whenever he was curious, he would ask a question or two, but Gao Mingcheng never asked any further questions or beated on them.
He seemed uninterested in this, but also seemed to have everything under control and there was no need to ask any more questions.
Fan Licheng couldn't see through him, but instead a competitive spirit was aroused in his heart.
After breakfast and a few exercises, the two of them, one big and one small, were ready to get on the bus. Gao Mingcheng felt that Fan Licheng was a pretty easy kid to take care of. He recalled his two sons from his previous life, but found that he couldn't even remember what they looked like when they were little.
He shook his head, hiding the regrets and guilt deep inside.
Because he didn't plan to drive to JDZ in one breath, Gao Mingcheng drove steadily all the way today and arrived at his county town at around two o'clock in the afternoon.
There was no other cargo in the car, so he drove the truck directly to his doorstep. Fortunately, the road was wide enough to accommodate the truck.
"Ming Cheng, you're back!" The big truck stopped in front of the store, and many beauties who were watching the store inside came out immediately.
There were still some customers choosing clothes in the store, and Gao Shufang and Deng Wanwan were serving them.
"Well, I got a batch of goods and unloaded them first." Gao Mingcheng jumped out of the car, then walked to the carriage and opened the door.
Fan Licheng jumped down from the passenger side by himself. Because it was quite high, his feet were numb from the shock.
He didn't go to see Gao Mingcheng unloading the goods, but walked into the Xinxin clothing store.
He first looked up at the store sign, then walked in.
While he was looking around the clothing store, Gao Mingcheng was busy unloading goods. Xuanyuemei stood next to the truck, intending to help move in the goods that Gao Mingcheng had thrown off the truck.
But she found that the stuff was very heavy. She tried very hard but could only move a little bit.
Gao Mingcheng smiled and said, "Put it there, I'll move it later!"
Many beauties cannot be moved, so we can only look at them.
After taking down the large sack of clothes, Gao Mingcheng moved down a small wooden box.
Manyu Mei looked down at the wooden box, which was filled with food and a children's suit on top. It was not new, but had been worn by someone.
She noticed that the pants were a little wet, so she said, "Do you want to wash these pants? The kid's?"
She knew the main purpose of Gao Mingcheng's driving the car this time, and she also saw the child enter the store.
"Well, it's his, but he thought it was dirty and didn't want it. He asked me to give it to someone, but I don't know who to give it to." Gao Mingcheng said, and asked Xuanyuemei to think about who he could give it to.
As a result, many beauties are unexpected.
It is really hard to find someone to give suits to these teenagers. The people they know are either elders, peers, or just a few years old kids.
Xuanyuemei said, "I'll wash it for him and let him continue to wear it. It would be a shame to throw away such good fabric!"
Gao Mingcheng did not comment. He did not want to be greedy for the clothes. It would be better if Fan Licheng could take it away.
He bought a lot of goods this time, half spring clothes and half summer clothes. In the next few months, he won't have to go to Guangzhou to buy goods.
The bag of goods was very large and difficult to carry, so Gao Mingcheng stretched out his hands and placed the bag on his shoulders. He carried it into the store and then went upstairs.
Since the second floor was full of people, the warehouse was moved to the third floor.
He made several trips before he moved all the goods into the warehouse. He would sort them out slowly when he had time.
Next, he had to drive the car back to the transportation company.
The truck is too big and parked in front of the store, which has a great impact on business.
He planned to find Fan Licheng to see if he wanted to go to the transportation company with him.
When he went to look for them, he saw Fan Licheng chatting and laughing with two middle-aged women. Fan Licheng was holding a notebook and a pencil in his hands.
"Look, auntie, don't you look better dressed like this?" Fan Licheng handed the notebook in his hand to the two middle-aged women.
The two middle-aged women were clearly drawn on the notebook, and they were given a new set of clothes.
Perhaps they were a little surprised, or perhaps it was because the combination was really good-looking, the two middle-aged women praised it highly, and one of them said, "Little friend, can you give us this painting? Of course, we also want the clothes!"
"Here, give it to aunt. Aunt is so beautiful, she looks good in anything." Fan Licheng immediately handed the painting to them, and then his sweet words made the two middle-aged women smile, as if they really looked several years younger.
Deng Wanwan, who was standing nearby, was a little at a loss. It was Fan Licheng who reminded her to quickly get the clothes the customer wanted and pack them up.
After seeing off the two customers, Fan Licheng noticed that Gao Mingcheng was standing next to him. He must have seen everything that had just happened, so he raised his head slightly, raised his chin towards Gao Mingcheng, and blinked mischievously.
"Licheng, I didn't expect you could draw, and you draw so well!" Gao Mingcheng was shocked. He thought he knew Fan Licheng, but he didn't expect Fan Licheng to give him such a big surprise.
He was just a little kid, but he actually dared to help him sell clothes, and he actually sold them!
It's just... quite outrageous.
Fan Licheng said proudly: "Have you forgotten what my grandparents do? I started coloring with a brush when I was three years old."
After this reminder, Gao Mingcheng immediately thought of his grandparents who made porcelain. Before the advent of machines for glazing and coloring, the glaze on porcelain was applied by hand.
And each layer of color has to be fired once. The craftsmanship of making high-quality porcelain bottles is quite complicated.
It is normal that Fan Licheng has a foundation in painting due to the influence of his surroundings.
"Uncle Gao, this sister is so stupid. She can only follow the customers and doesn't take the initiative to introduce themselves. Her voice is also so low. This is not professional at all." Fan Licheng shook his head maturely, looking dissatisfied.
Deng Wanwan, who was standing next to her, blushed and stood there at a loss as to what to do.
Fan Liben originally just wanted to visit this clothing store, but he found that Deng Wanwan was quite unprofessional in selling clothes.
He had never sold clothes, but he had bought clothes. Especially in the stores that Aunt Yan took him to, the salesmen were so sweet and coaxed people into buying things.
He could also say those words to coax people, but his aesthetic taste was more advanced than that of the county, so he took the initiative to match clothes for the customers and drew them on the spot. Although they were simple drawings, the facial features were outlined and the clothes were also drawn very carefully, which made people feel amazed at first sight.
But this sense of surprise comes more from the fact that the person in the painting is indeed very similar to the real person, which gives people a strong psychological suggestion that they will be as beautiful if they put on that dress.
In the words of later generations, this is a seller's show.
Gao Mingcheng noticed Deng Wanwan's embarrassment and uneasiness, so he said, "Wanwan has just started selling clothes, so it's normal that she's not professional enough. She will get better slowly. I'm going to the transportation company, do you want to come with me? Your uncle Xiao should be there too."
"Let's go." Fan Licheng nodded and walked out of the store.
So Gao Mingcheng took Fan Licheng to the transportation company first.
After they left, Xuanyuemei and Gao Shufang were amazed. It was the first time for them to see such amazing children.
In the countryside, children of this age are still climbing trees to take bird eggs and steal fruits from other people's homes to eat.
