Chapter 98 Chapter 98 Old Friend
Jiang Xi looked at the books Qi Yu'an gave him and realized that there were such courses in university. It turned out that doing business and creating a brand could be studied systematically.
An idea suddenly came to Jiang Xi's mind. She had never thought about going to college before, but she felt that time was short, so Jiang Xi put all her energy into doing business.
But now seeing Lin Xiujun, Jiang Xi knows that he still needs to learn. If he wants to expand his business, he needs to learn more relevant knowledge.
Qi Yuan listened quietly to Jiang Xi and Lin Xiurong talking.
Lin Xiurong smiled and said, "This is your partner, right?"
Jiang Xi nodded: "Yes."
Lin Xiurong said, "Your boyfriend looks very energetic, and it's obvious that he cares about you very much."
Qi Yu'an coughed lightly. Was his expression just now so obvious? But Jiang Xi's expression just now was so vivid. He knew that Jiang Xi must have a plan again, so he couldn't help but focus a little, um, focus on Jiang Xi's face.
Qi Yu'an was only shy in front of Jiang Xi. At this moment, he was embarrassed for a moment before saying frankly, "Yes, I care about her a lot." He cared about her so much that he wanted to tell her whenever he had the chance, telling her that this girl deserved all the good things in the world.
Lin Xiurong smiled knowingly, young people, what a passionate love.
Jiang Xi...
Jiang Xi glared at Qi Yu'an and turned the topic to business. Lin Xiurong also stopped teasing the young couple and continued to communicate with Jiang Xi about her business experience. Because of her gratitude to Jiang Xi and her love for her, Lin Xiurong told her everything she knew.
Jiang Xi felt that Lin Xiurong was worthy of her family background in learning. She knew a lot and had a very broad vision. Jiang Xi wanted to write down everything Lin Xiurong said.
Qi Yu'an didn't disturb him and carefully peeled eggs for Jiang Xi. After breakfast, Qi Yu'an helped Jiang Xi take the plate away.
Lin Xiurong approached Jiang Xi, her eyes sly as she whispered to him, "Your partner is a good person and takes good care of you."
Jiang Xi looked at Qi Yu'an's back and nodded. Qi Yu'an had indeed taken good care of her along the way.
Lin Xiurong continued, "However, a woman must also have her own career. This is my sincere advice as someone who has experienced it. A man's feelings may suddenly fade, but his career will never betray you. Come on, I'm a good judge of people. You will definitely achieve great things in the future."
Jiang Xi understood that Lin Xiurong said this because she treated her as her own. Jiang Xi nodded carefully: "I understand. I will remember these words."
She is not a person who regards love as everything. On the contrary, she is very pessimistic in relationships. When she was with Qi Yu'an, Jiang Xi wondered whether she could bear it if they were separated. Only after she was sure that she could bear it did Jiang Xi choose to start.
The temperature in Shanghai is much higher than at home. Jiang Xi put on a thin coat and went with Qi Yu'an. According to the address given by Lin Xiurong, they bought several large stainless steel barrels very smoothly. They bought them at a low price, and the store also agreed to help Jiang Xi mail them back.
"Shall we go buy some glass now?" Jiang Xi was still thinking about the glass.
Qi Yu'an said: "Okay." They took the bus to Huayao Glass Factory.
Jiang Xi said to the security guard, "Hello, I'm looking for Comrade Niu Jun. Is he here?"
The security guard was a short, thin old man wearing a gray hat. He asked in confusion, "Who are you? What do you want with him?"
Jiang Xi smiled and said, "I'm his friend. I need to talk to him about something." Then he took out a handful of White Rabbit cigarettes from his pocket and stuffed them into the doorman's pocket. "Could you please help me call him?"
The guard was stuffed with a handful of White Rabbit milk candies, and his expression relaxed. This was good stuff, a few White Rabbit candies were equivalent to a glass of pure milk.
"Okay, I'll call him for you."
After a while, the guard came out with a man, it was Niu Jun.
Niu Jun is tall and strong, with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks very generous.
Jiang Xi took the initiative to step forward and introduce himself: "Hello, I'm Jiang Xi, Sister Lin Xiurong asked me to come to you."
Niu Jun said, "Oh, it's Sister Lin. What do you want to talk to me about?" Niu Jun had received Lin Xiurong's favor in his early years, and had been having business dealings with Lin Xiurong over the years, so he was very concerned about Lin Xiurong's affairs.
He looked at Jiang Xi. Lin Xiurong rarely introduced others to him. This little girl was extraordinary. He didn't know where she came from.
Jiang Xi smiled and explained his purpose: "I opened a shop and want to make a glass cabinet. I want to buy some glass from you."
So that's what happened. No wonder. I didn't expect that this little girl could open a store at such a young age.
Jiang Xi did not explain the specific situation of the store, so Niu Jun naturally thought of Lin Xiurong's hotel and imagined that Jiang Xi's store would be as big as the Shiquan Hotel.
Because of this misunderstanding, Niu Jun said cheerfully with a smile on his face, "Glass is a hot commodity right now. I wouldn't do this for ordinary people, but since Sister Lin introduced you, you're my friend. I'll do you a favor. How much do you want?"
Jiang Xi didn't expect it to be so smooth. He was overjoyed and estimated, "One meter and two meters multiplied by one meter is about eight yuan." Jiang Xi deliberately asked for more. If he asked for less, it would be troublesome to make another trip to Shanghai. Glass is hard to buy anyway, so even if he can't use it all, he can give it to others.
Glass is hard to buy but also expensive. Jiang Xi wanted so much at once, and Niu Jun suddenly felt that Jiang Xi was very powerful.
Since the opening up, the Shanghai Stock Exchange has become home to many talented people, and there are more and more wealthy people.
Niu Jun said, "Okay, but we don't have it today. Come tomorrow and I'll pack it for you. Just come and pick it up directly. Don't worry, it's definitely top-quality goods without any defects."
Jiang Xi quickly agreed: "Thank you for your trouble."
Niu Jun waved his hand: "It's no big deal."
After settling the matter they had been worrying about, Jiang Xi and Qi Yu'an now had nothing to do. They could only wait to buy the glass tomorrow and then return to Changfeng County.
Qi Yuan suggested: "Why don't we go shopping? I know a few good restaurants. Why don't we try them?"
Jiang Xiqi asked, "Are you familiar with the Shanghai market as well?"
Qi Yu'an smiled and said, "My uncle works here, and he used to come here often during the summer vacation."
"Uncle? Is he the one who greeted the police station last time?"
Qi Yu'an nodded: "Yes, I have three uncles in total, two of them are in Beijing, and one is in Shanghai. They are all very good to me."
"That must be because you are likable." Jiang Xi's casual words made Qi Yu'an smile.
Qi Yu'an took Jiang Xi through the alley and turned a few times before arriving in front of a shop.
"This is a pork liver noodle shop. It's hard to find it if you're not familiar with the place. Their signature pork liver noodles are a must-try." Qi Yu'an introduced enthusiastically.
The store has a small frontage, with only two or three tables inside, and five or six people queuing. The food must be delicious.
"Then I'll try it. I'm hungry."
Qi Yuan asked the shop owner: "Uncle, how long will it take before a table is available?"
The owner, without even looking up, continued to cook the noodles, saying, "It'll take a while. If you don't mind, you can take your bowls and eat outside."
Jiang Xi looked over and saw two people squatting in the corner. They were holding bowls and eating noodles outside. Jiang Xi swallowed unconsciously because they were eating delicious noodles or because he was hungry. He couldn't wait any longer and said, "Let's eat outside."
Qi Yu'an said, "Okay." "Master, give me two bowls of pork liver noodles!"
There was no need to wait for a seat, the service was very fast. In just a short while, Qi Yu'an brought out two bowls of noodles from the shop.
Jiang Xi finished a bowl of noodles. Qi Yu'an stirred the noodles in his hand with chopsticks and handed it to Jiang Xi: "I've mixed this. You can have this bowl."
Jiang Xi was a little surprised that Qi Yu'an was so attentive.
Qi Yu'an noticed her expression and smiled, "My mom is good at cooking, but she hates mixing things. So if there's anything that needs mixing, my dad does it if he's around. So I learned this trick too. How is it? Does my mixing taste good?"
Jiang Xi looked at the noodles in the bowl and said, "It's delicious."
Qi Yu'an curved his eyebrows and said, "I will help you mix the noodles from now on."
Jiang Xi...just eat your noodles. Why does he make me blush just by saying something casually?
The noodles in the bowl were dyed reddish-brown, and each strand was covered with a thick sauce. The pig liver was not fishy but had a crisp taste. Jiang Xi took a bite and couldn't help but sigh with satisfaction: "The noodles are delicious."
Qi Yu'an gathered Jiang Xi's scattered hair. His movements were very natural and his voice was doting: "I know you like it, so I brought it here specially for you. If it's not enough, give me another bowl."
Jiang Xi shook his head: "This bowl is enough."
Jiang Xi ate noodles while leisurely looking at the surrounding scenery. The weather was just right, neither too cold nor too hot. Qi Yu'an was eating noodles beside her with his head down. Jiang Xi never thought that one day she would squat on the roadside and eat noodles with Qi Yu'an.
Suddenly Jiang Xi's eyes froze, and her gaze fell on the alley in front of her. Jiang Xi saw a disheveled man.
The man had a limp and his head was drooping. He was bending over and rummaging through the trash can. Jiang Xi stared at him for a long time.
Qi Yu'an noticed Jiang Xi's expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xi pointed in the direction of the alley: "I think I saw my second uncle."
"Second uncle?" Qi Yu'an had only heard of Jiang Xi's eldest uncle and didn't know that Jiang Xi had another uncle.
Jiang Xi said: "My second uncle went out to do business. At first, we had some news about him, but then we disappeared without a trace. My whole family thought he was gone, but we didn't expect to see him here."
Jiang Xi put the bowl in Qi Yu'an's hand without hesitation and ran straight towards the alley.
Qi Yu'an felt helpless holding a big bowl in one hand. Fortunately, he had finished all the noodles. He returned the bowl to the owner and trotted towards the alley.
Jiang Xi ran to the trash can and called out hesitantly, "Second Uncle? Is that you?"
