Chapter 1124: Big Brother from the Same Village
After Lu Miao looked at the actual situation and confirmed that there was no problem, he asked Chen Xiangdong to look for a place and start taking action.
In addition, according to what Lu Miao said, Chen Xiangdong also mentioned this to Mei Zi, Gu Ying, Lin Xian and others in private.
Let’s make money together. Anyone who is willing to invest in this batch of goods can join in the fun.
If you don't want to, then forget it.
Chen Xiangdong was busy for a week discussing and finding a storage warehouse.
Around the time of the winter solstice, Liu Xiaozhu officially started working at the Fu family.
Knowing that he was about to enter a wealthy family, Liu Xiaozhu specially put on some decent clothes.
But his dignity was obviously not enough in front of the Fu family.
Lu Miao met him and found two sets of clothes that Fu Jingyou had never worn before for Wang Xiu.
Wang Xiu was asked to modify it according to Liu Xiaozhu's size, and then someone else was asked to put it on, and it looked a little more presentable.
Let’s talk about Lu Miao.
After submitting the publicity plan, her subsequent work schedule was not so busy.
She has always been a teacher of large classes at Peking University.
Because she was busy before, she didn't teach many classes on a daily basis, but the school did not give her any less than the monthly salary of 120 yuan.
Lu Miao felt a little embarrassed for just taking money without doing any work.
Taking advantage of the fact that she is not busy these days, and occasionally has some free time, she communicates with Chen Maiding and asks him to schedule a few more classes for the students before the winter exam.
It was also at this time that the Fu family became bustling with activity again.
Over in Qingta Hutong, Chen Xiangdong had just raised more than 70,000 yuan to buy the goods from the garment factory.
He also said that he would come to see Lu Miao and talk about the progress of the matter!
As a result, as soon as I opened the gate of Hutong No. 19, I was met with the rough black face of a country man.
The country man looked embarrassed, with a load on his shoulders and a basket on his back.
Standing at the bottom of the stairs, he looked up at Chen Xiangdong several times, then glanced into the yard subtly.
There was a rumor in the alley that there had been several cases of stalking and theft in the suburbs recently.
The man avoided her gaze and just looked around without saying a word. Chen Xiangdong immediately became alert.
He frowned, closed the gate, stood at the entrance and asked:
"What do you want? Who are you looking for here?"
The dark-faced man was startled by Chen Xiangdong's harsh tone, and quickly turned his gaze to look at Chen Xiangdong, hesitating and saying:
"Hello, comrade. I'd like to ask if the owner of this house is surnamed Fu? He's my wife's elder brother from the same village..."
As soon as he heard "surname Fu" and "big brother from the same village", Chen Xiangdong had a general idea in his mind.
Pushing open the gate, Chen Xiangdong changed his attitude and hurriedly invited people into the yard:
"Yes, yes, so we are all family! Big brother, come in and sit down and talk... My sixth brother used to live here, but now they have moved somewhere else."
"What? They moved away?"
The dark-faced man entered the yard, and before he even put down the things on his shoulders and back, he turned around anxiously and asked Chen Xiangdong:
"Comrade, do you know where they've moved to now? Can we still find them?"
"Don't worry, big brother. Sixth brother and his family just moved to a new place. We're still in touch every day! I'm going to visit my sister-in-law today. Big brother, sit down and have a drink of water and rest. We'll go there soon."
"This... hey, hey good."
"Brother, have some water. My last name is Chen. My sixth brother and sister-in-law both call me Xiangdong. I don't know your last name, brother?"
"Ah, my last name is Bai Chengwen, and I'm from the same brigade as Xiaoliu and his wife..."
Chen Xiangdong nodded and changed his words:
"Brother Bai."
Bai Chengwen was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly:
"Ah, no, no, no, no... Just call me Comrade Bai!"
Bai Chengwen laughed dryly and said "goodbye" several times in a hushed voice.
How could he accept the call of "big brother" when they first met?
Bai Chengwen was extremely anxious and uneasy as he had not found the person on this trip to Beijing.
But after all, I have to rely on others to lead the way, so no matter how anxious and urgent I am, I can only hold it in for now.
The female worker in the room was pedaling the sewing machine, making a "thump thump" sound.
Bai Chengwen had no time to visit.
His lips were cracked with dryness, but he held the shoulder pole with one hand to guard the load and the basket on his back, and held the teacup with the other hand, not daring to actually drink from it.
These people said they were familiar with his fellow villagers, but whether they were really familiar with him was another matter of debate.
What if there is something in the water and he passes out after drinking it, and then someone takes his things away?
Mei Zi and Lin Xian were in another courtyard.
In this courtyard, the only person who can be in charge is Chen Xiangdong.
Chen Xiangdong warmly welcomed Bai Chengwen.
But seeing that the other party was too reserved and vigilant to let go, Chen Xiangdong saw the signs and knew that this matter should not be delayed, so he stood up and said to set off.
Bai Chengwen heard a series of "ah" sounds, found a place to put down the teacup, quickly put the basket on his back, inserted the shoulder pole back into the carrying rope, and put it on his shoulder again.
Chen Xiangdong drove his people to Jingshan South Street.
When they arrived at the place, Chen Xiangdong parked his car next to the black sedan at the main entrance of the Fu family, and got out to help Bai Chengwen get the things downstairs.
Bai Chengwen was confused, picked up the load and moved along, saying:
"Comrade, are we here yet?"
Next to the Fu family’s house is the Forbidden City, and not far ahead is Tiananmen Square.
The geographical location nearby can be said to be excellent.
Bai Chengwen always thought that this was some kind of city tourist attraction.
Chen Xiangdong led him around to the side door, knocked on it, and said with a thumbs-up gesture:
"We're here. Sixth brother and sister-in-law are very capable. Most people can't afford to live in a place like this."
Bai Chengwen looked up and saw that the house looked very grand from the outside, just like the one where masters and princes lived in the past.
He didn't understand the value of this location, but he felt that the man in front of him said something right.
This couple from his hometown are really capable!
Thinking of this, Bai Chengwen nodded, and a rare smile of relief appeared on his plain, dark face:
"Yes, Sixth Brother is the only one from the village in our area who got into university, and my sister-in-law is even more amazing! She was the top scorer in our province! When she passed the exam that year, the county leaders came and gave her several hundred yuan in awards, a thick stack!"
Just as he was measuring the thickness of the bill, the side door of the house suddenly opened from the inside.
Bai Chengwen smiled and looked inside the door, thinking that he would definitely find someone this time, but he didn't expect to see a strange face.
"Hey, Brother Chen is here."
Xu Xiangcao stood at the door and greeted them.
Chen Xiangdong smiled and nodded in response, picking up the backpack and ready to take people in.
Xu Xiangcao saw that he brought someone else, who was dressed like a poor rural man.
Not only was his clothes covered in dust and looked dirty, but the cloth shoes on his feet had holes in the toes, and his big toe was sticking out, which was disgusting.
Xu Xiangcao frowned, and together with Chen Xiangdong, they stopped the man.
"Brother Chen, who is this person? We have rules in our house. We can't let anyone in."
