With a large sum of money coming in, wouldn't it be less fun if we didn't spend a single penny?
However, Gu Wei was in a hurry to return to the 84th district, so he didn't have time to buy any big items and could only buy a bunch of food to take back with him.
Before Gu Wei even reached the front door, he smelled a rich aroma, seemingly from a braised dish.
His smile widened, and he quickened his pace to go home.
Gu Hongjie, who was squatting in the middle of the yard carefully wiping his bicycle with a rag, immediately stood up when he saw Gu Wei enter the yard: "You're back!"
"Mmm." Gu Wei smiled and shook the bag in his hand. "There's something delicious."
Gu Hongjie casually tossed the rag into the enamel basin and scurried over to his side.
Gu Jianguo and Li Guizhi also came out of the house.
"Gu Wei is back."
"Quickly wash your hands, get ready to eat."
"Okay." Gu Wei handed the bag to Gu Hongjie, then put his arm around his shoulder and walked into the house.
Gu Hongjie looked up and happily reported to Gu Wei.
"We sold a total of 68 items at noon and in the evening. We also sold quite a few hair clips and other small items."
Gu Wei sincerely praised, "Sales are great. You deserve a lot of credit."
Gu Hongjie immediately raised his chin proudly, "That's right, those older sisters all like me. I told them they looked good in it, so they all bought it."
Gu Wei was surprised that his father was quite popular with women.
But I can understand it.
People always judge others by their appearance, no matter the time.
Now, after a period of good food and drink, Gu Hongjie's face has regained its sallow complexion, he has gained some weight, and he is much more confident.
He was already a good-looking child, and wearing well-fitting and fashionable clothes and shoes made him even more handsome.
"You're a real sales pro."
Gu Hongjie smiled even more brightly because of Gu Wei's praise.
When it came time to settle the commission, Gu Wei gave his grandfather and the others eight yuan.
Gu Jianguo and his group only wanted seven yuan.
In the end, Gu Wei let them go.
Everyone quickly sat down together to eat dinner.
On the kang table were not only two bowls of braised wild rabbit meat, but also several dishes such as stir-fried zucchini with eggs, smashed cucumber, and stir-fried green beans with meat.
Grandpa's cooking skills were already excellent.
Now that there's plenty of seasoning at home, such as oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar, he's willing to use them. As a result, his braised wild rabbit is a deep reddish-brown color, fragrant, tender, and lean without being dry. The other dishes are also delicious.
With a balanced mix of meat and vegetables, Gu Wei found it increasingly satisfying and ate an extra bowl of rice.
Gu Hongjie was in the process of growing up, so he ate almost as much as him.
After the meal, the two went outside the gate to digest their food.
Gu Wei's method was to take a leisurely stroll and chat with neighbors who had also finished eating and were out enjoying the cool air.
Gu Hongjie couldn't wait to practice on the gleaming bicycle, and his riding skills improved rapidly.
Gu Wei estimated that if it weren't for Da Liang, Gu Hongjie would have already learned it.
On a dark summer night, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the clouds, houses, and streets red.
Gu Wei was admiring the beautiful scenery and thinking about getting a camera that fit the times when Li Bin suddenly arrived.
Perhaps because he had rested, Li Bin looked much more energetic, but the large blister on his lip, though deflated, was still quite noticeable.
Why did you come at this time?
Li Bin glanced around and said in a low voice, "Brother Gu, I'm here about the business license."
Gu Wei gestured, "Let's go inside and talk."
There were many adults and children outside the gate, making it difficult to talk.
"Okay." Li Bin hurriedly followed Gu Wei into the courtyard.
Gu Jianguo and Li Guizhi are both people who can't sit still.
The two were tending to the vegetable garden together.
When they saw Li Bin arrive, they all stopped what they were doing to greet him.
Gu Jianguo and the others were still thinking about the thirty yuan they owed Li Bin's family.
The two filed into the house.
Li Guizhi immediately took out a bulging handkerchief from her pocket, opened it, and found some coins inside.
She took out three ten-yuan bills and gestured to her husband to find a chance to pay her back later.
In the west room.
After inviting Li Bin to sit down, Gu Wei poured him a glass of water.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Li Bin took the cup with both hands, but didn't drink it right away. "Brother Gu, the person I found said that if we register with a subordinate unit of my friend's relative, which is a collective entity, it will be easier to get a business license. We just need to pay them a management fee every month. If we register it as an individual, since you're from out of town, it will probably take more effort and cost more money. Plus, you won't get any good opportunities."
Since acquiring the cheat ability to travel back to 1984, Gu Wei has researched a lot of information about that era.
Many people, out of various concerns, have registered with local organizations and obtained collective business licenses.
Little did they know that once they were affiliated with the company, there were almost no benefits, and it would be difficult to break free later.
Therefore, Gu Wei would not choose the former.
"I want to register it personally. I don't mind spending a little more money to avoid trouble later."
Li Bin never expected that the God of Wealth, who was usually quite flexible and adaptable, would make such a choice.
He kindly reminded him, "Brother Gu, you must have heard about those eight people from the South, right?"
Gu Wei nodded: "I've heard of it."
He knew that a number of individual business owners emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
They have emerged as leaders in multiple industries, including hardware, secondhand goods, and electrical appliances, and have made a lot of money.
Two years ago, in 1982, these individual business owners were arrested.
They were only declared innocent this year after new documents came out.
Li Bin understood Gu Wei even less. If she knew, how could she still...?
"Brother Gu, it's best to have a company you're affiliated with, so you'll feel more secure..."
Gu Wei smiled and said, "The document has been issued, things should get better from now on."
Li Bin wanted to offer some more advice, but seeing the God of Wealth's determined eyes and confident demeanor, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
"Alright then, Brother Gu, remember to prepare two one-inch photos recently."
"Okay, I'll go to the photo studio tomorrow."
After the two finished talking, Li Bin glanced out the window and whispered, "That guy surnamed Yuan got beaten up a couple of days ago after his night shift."
Gu Wei's eyes flickered slightly, and he said approvingly, "Well done."
Grandpa and Grandma have been here for some time now, and even if the Yuan family has some suspicions, they can't find any evidence.
Li Bin was overjoyed to receive the God of Wealth's approval.
They chatted for a while longer.
Li Bin then got up, said goodbye, and left.
The two left the house one after the other.
Gu Wei originally intended to escort Li Bin to the gate, but his grandfather intercepted him halfway.
"Gu Wei, you go back. I'll see Li Bin off."
Gu Wei roughly guessed what was going on, stopped and smiled slightly, "Alright. Then you can take him there, Grandpa."
Li Bin said one last thing to Gu Wei before walking outside with Gu Jianguo.
