Chapter 85 Trip to Xiangshi



When Liu Yun arrived in the city center, she immediately fell in love with the place. However, she didn't intend to sell it as clothes; she wanted to buy it for herself and sell it for whatever she wanted. In a place like this, she wouldn't lose money no matter what she sold.

Shenyang: "How is it? It's not bad, is it? Although it's almost half the size of the place we just saw, it has two floors, a good location, and doesn't need to be demolished and rebuilt. If you want to buy it, I can get you a discount to 9,600."

Yu Qian fell in love with his wife at first sight.

Yu Qianhe: "If you like it, just go for it!"

Liu Yun glared at him, annoyed. "I like both places. The three courtyards in the university town can be used to open a branch, and it's no problem to turn them into the main store later."

Yu Qianhe: "Then let's buy that one."

It just so happens that the place is close to their home, so it will be convenient for his wife to go to work in the future.

Liu Yun: "But I personally like this one too."

Yu Qianhe: "Then we'll buy this one ourselves."

Liu Yun: "You make it sound so easy. Where would we get so much money? We can't afford it now. I wonder if such a nice shop can stay open for two months. Maybe we can afford it after two months."

Once she goes to Guangzhou and buys more goods, she might be able to afford it.

Shen He: "That probably won't work. Let alone two months, it might sell in less than half a month. The owner of this house is going abroad and will definitely sell it before he leaves. Besides, the location is really good."

Yu Qianhe: "Then I'll buy it. I still have some money, so I can afford to buy this."

Liu Yun: "Really? But what would we sell it for? Wouldn't it be a waste to just leave it here?"

Yu Qianhe: "If you can't think of anything, take your time. There's no rush."

Liu Yun: "Okay."

Once it was decided, Shenyang also said that other places were not as good as these two, so there was no need to waste time going to other places. We directly negotiated with the homeowner, went to the bank to withdraw money, and completed the formalities.

The three courtyards will be registered under Liu Yun's name for now, and will be converted into three separate courtyards after they are connected and rebuilt.

When Liu Yun took Yu Qianhe's passbook to withdraw money, she knew that the guy was definitely not an honest person. There was still 10,000 yuan in the passbook, but with the continuous deposits and withdrawals, there was about 30,000 yuan in working capital over the year.

One portion of the money was used to buy those houses, but at least several thousand more were used for other things, and he definitely has more than one savings account.

Once everything was settled, I took out about 20,000 yuan and got back four flimsy pieces of paper.

Yu Qianhe: "Brother Chen, it's almost noon. Thank you for your help this time. Let's go eat. You can't refuse this time, or I'll feel embarrassed to ask you for help."

Shenyang: "I should be the one treating you. It's your sister-in-law's first time here, so I should host a welcome dinner for you. This time, I'll be the one to treat you."

Yu Qianhe: "Next time, come to my house for a welcome dinner. Today, I have to treat you. Don't say anything more. My wife hates this kind of push and shove."

Liu Yun really hates these things. Whether in the 21st century or now, she sees countless instances of this pushing and shoving every year.

Things like, "No, no, no, I'll do it, no, no, no, I'll do it, no, no, no, yes, yes, whatever, don't be shy."

Things are a little better now, but in later years, she was almost pushed over because of a New Year's red envelope.

It's someone else giving you money, not robbing you, is it really necessary to make such a big fuss?

Does it have to be a fight to pay the bill when someone's treating you to a meal? Can't you just take turns paying?

Knowing that Yu Qian and Liu Yun wouldn't fake it, Shen Yang didn't refuse: "Okay, next time you come to my house for dinner, I'll have your sister-in-law cook some of her signature dishes for you. Your sister-in-law is from the North, and your sister-in-law probably hasn't tried Northern cuisine before."

Liu Yun: "Great! I'll have to try it properly then."

Although her mother had made it for her many times, it was certainly not as authentic as what people from the North made.

She really likes Northern Chinese cuisine, such as sweet and sour pork, stewed goose in an iron pot, and steamed corn bread.

However, Yu's mother said that it was because the cornbread was made with refined grains that it tasted so good. She said that if it were made with coarse grains, it would be so hard on the throat.

However, there's no need to try it. After all, the coarse grains of today are different from those of later generations. The coarse grains of later generations are now considered refined grains, and even high-quality refined grains.

The three of them didn't go to the state-run restaurant, but instead went to a small alley and found a restaurant. Yu Qian seemed to know the owner quite well.

"Xiaoyu, you brought your friends over for dinner. What do you want to eat this time? You guys are lucky today, we managed to get some beef. Would you like some?"

Yu Qianhe: "Uncle Yang, this is my wife, and this is my good buddy. You have beef today? That's great! Let's have a stir-fried beef, a spicy and sour chicken giblet, a stir-fried pork with chili peppers, a pork with rice noodles, and you can stir-fry some seasonal vegetables as you see fit."

"Alright! You guys have a glass of water first, it'll be ready soon. But Xiao Yu, your wife is really beautiful, the two of you are such a perfect match."

Yu Qianhe: "Uncle Yang is my colleague's father. Uncle Yang used to be the head chef of a state-run restaurant, and his cooking was superb."

Liu Yun: "Oh! Then I'll have to try it properly."

Shenyang: "Then I'm in for a treat today. You don't know, your sister-in-law is from the north and can't eat spicy food, but I love spicy food. Your sister-in-law has been eating spicy food for so many years and she can only eat a little bit of chili. My mouth is so bland."

The first dish served was spicy and sour chicken giblets, which is quick to stir-fry. Then came steamed pork with rice flour, stir-fried pork with chili peppers, stir-fried beef with yellow peppers, steamed pork with rice flour again, and finally stir-fried water spinach.

This stir-fried beef with yellow peppers is really delicious, both fragrant and spicy. These days, it's not easy to eat beef, and she was really craving it. The steamed pork with rice flour is also tender and soft, a perfect match for this meal. After eating all the other spicy dishes, a few bites of the steamed pork with rice flour are just the right amount of goodness.
