Chu Yu just installed a telephone in Shu Hui's courtyard house.
In those days, there were a lot of people in Beijing who wanted to get telephones installed. If you waited in line, you could wait one or two years. Fortunately, Dai Donglin had connections and pulled some strings for Chu Yu. She paid 5,000 yuan for the installation fee and it was installed in just two days.
The monthly phone fee is 4 yuan. With a phone, it's much easier for Chu Yu to contact Shu Aiguo.
"Hey, Second Uncle."
"Chu Yu, your second uncle thought you were at school and couldn't get in touch with you."
Chu Yu didn't have many classes today, so she came back to see her mother and sister, pet her cat, and call her boyfriend to catch up.
"How's the situation going?"
"Second Uncle listened to you and used all the funds in our Xibao to buy rosewood. The rosewood here in the South China Sea is cheaper than the market price, and the quality is good. Master Liang praised it highly, and I think it's pretty good too." Shu Aiguo took a puff of his cigarette and asked, "By the way, are all the rosewood we bought transported back to Deyang?"
Xibao's flagship store is in Deyang, where Knicks' production line is also located, so the rosewood will definitely need to be shipped back.
However, Chu Yu wanted to make some fine carvings, but he definitely couldn't find a suitable craftsman in Deyang. Besides, Shu Aiguo had acquired hundreds of thousands of yuan worth of timber, and it was impossible to use it all up. Chu Yu wanted to collect a batch of wood and make it into furniture when he found a suitable craftsman.
"Second Uncle, the security level of the warehouse in Deyang is not high. If the workers find out the value of the huanghuali wood, they might be tempted to buy it."
Shu Aiguo thought so too.
Hundreds of thousands of pieces of wood, what does that mean?
If he encountered someone as heartless as Shu Jiandang, who burned the rosewood in a fire, Shu Aiguo would not be able to bear the loss.
“Send the pieces that are to be made into furniture to Deyang, and transport the rest to Beijing. I’ll rent a warehouse here to store the wood separately.”
Shu Aiguo would definitely agree. He trusted Chu Yu's work, but he was also worried that the craftsmen in Deyang might not be skilled enough, the production line might not be precise enough, and the products might be too Western-style, wasting the wood.
"Okay, I'll have someone else ship it over there. Give me the address later."
Chu Yu agreed. She had her own warehouse for mandarin in Beijing, and she also had experience in finding warehouses. Her warehouses were all fireproof and had good fire protection. As long as she upgraded the security, there shouldn't be any problems with her batch of wood.
Besides, it takes more than a dozen people to lift a piece of rosewood, making it very difficult for thieves to steal.
Chu Yu spent half a day finding a warehouse, asked He Lu to help her upgrade some door locks, order doors and windows, and make sure they were moisture-proof and insect-proof. Then she rode her bicycle back to school.
She had just reached the entrance of Tsinghua University when she ran into two acquaintances.
When Zhou Huilan saw Chu Yu, her eyes lit up. "Mom, it's Chu Yu! Your granddaughter Chu Yu! You haven't seen her in so long, have you? You've been so good to her since she was little, raising her by collecting garbage and scavenging. She got into university, but she doesn't care about you at all. That kind of person is a complete ingrate!"
After Zhou Huilan finished speaking, the students watching started discussing it.
You should know that Zhou Chuyu is a popular figure at Tsinghua University. She was voted the most beautiful girl in her department on her first day of school.
Tsinghua University is not like other schools. There are many outstanding girls. Compared with appearance, everyone cares more about talent and inner qualities. Even though she has always been known as the most beautiful girl in her department, she was not immediately voted the most beautiful girl in the school by the students.
Until Chu Yu won over the staff of the Japanese Fuji Group, she wrote the first antivirus software in China's history. Even if no one knew what this meant, the word "first" was enough to earn her the title of "talented woman".
After this incident, Chu Yu became famous and was recognized as the school beauty by everyone.
She is very particular about her clothes. Even if people can't tell the brand, they know that she comes from a good family and has never experienced hardship.
But Zhou Huilan actually said that she was raised by her grandmother who collected scraps and garbage!
This is no ordinary kindness. Her grandmother raised her for so long, how could she turn her back on her and ignore her grandmother?
Grandma was dressed in such shabby clothes, while Chu Yu was dressed in bright and beautiful clothes.
This contrast stung the students' eyes, blinding them with anger.
"Chu Yu, is this really your grandma?" a classmate asked from the crowd.
Chu Yu didn't answer. Zhou Huilan walked over and said pitifully:
"Chu Yu, you really are something else. You got into university because of your family's support. How can you abandon your grandmother after marrying into a wealthy family? That's not how you behave! Besides, the man in your hometown spent a lot of money to support your education. You can't just abandon him because you don't have a marriage certificate!"
The crowd erupted in chaos.
Chu Yu, the campus belle of Tsinghua University, is a goddess in everyone's heart. She not only abandoned her grandmother who was scavenging, but also had a man in her hometown. After she was admitted to Tsinghua University, she kicked the man away.
This is absolutely amazing!
Chu Yu frowned and scoffed coldly:
"A man supported my education? Zhou Huilan, you really know how to talk nonsense. My parents are divorced, and my mother has always supported my two sisters and me through our education. Who do you think you are, daring to throw mud at me like that?"
Chu Yu's attitude changed the tide of the event, leaving Zhou Huilan speechless.
She hesitated for a long time before finally saying urgently:
“I’m your own aunt, how could I wrong you? You’ve always been this kind of person. Your grandma collected garbage to support you, and what did you do? You got into university but you didn’t even come home! Look how hard the old lady works, collecting garbage every day and scavenging for food in the trash cans, all to save money for her granddaughter so she wouldn’t be ridiculed at school. Who knew she’d raise such an ungrateful child!”
Chu Yu almost laughed. If Zhou Huilan wasn't out of her mind, she wouldn't have said something like that.
