However, if we want to take drastic measures, the time is obviously not yet ripe!
Thinking about the various policy twists and turns at the beginning of reform and opening up, she had nothing to worry about!
As the saying goes, the early bird catches the worm!
"You should think carefully about our herbal tea business first!" Lan Guoer reminded.
"Even if you have nothing to do, read more books. A good blacksmith must have a strong body. Hone yourself well first, and you will have plenty of opportunities to make money in the future!"
Wang Er smiled and scratched his head. He was indeed a little too eager for quick success!
"Don't worry, Sister Guo'er, I will definitely train myself well and make our herbal tea business a success!"
Knowing that Lan Guoer would be returning to Kyoto soon, Lei Zi worked very efficiently!
That afternoon, he spread the news that he was looking for a house, and offered an attractive price that was 10% higher than the market price, and offered to pay a hundred yuan as a reward for successful introduction.
In no time, the news spread throughout most of Guangzhou! Many people, both those who owned houses and those who didn’t, started to think about it.
Those who own a house want to sell it! This is a full 10% higher than the market price!
Take a house worth 3,000 yuan as an example. One tenth of it is 300 yuan, which is equivalent to an ordinary worker’s annual salary!
Even if you sell it and buy something else, it’s still a good deal!
Those who don’t have a house are all eyeing the 100 yuan introduction fee!
Just by introducing someone, you can get 100 yuan. How is this different from pie in the sky?!
To the extent that Lei Zi almost ran his legs off that afternoon, he was just busy running around looking at houses.
There are many people who want to sell their houses, but there are only a few that meet the standards!
Either the location was too remote or the environment was too noisy! In short, there was not a single one that satisfied him at first sight!
He couldn't stand it anymore, so how could he introduce her to Lan Guoer?
Even though they haven't known each other for long, he has been in society for so long, can't he see how powerful Doctor Lan is?
They casually spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on this business! They don't even blink an eye! How can they not have some aspirations?
Until dark, he still didn't find a seat he liked, and finally had to drag his tired legs back home.
Ever since Second Uncle Lei's health improved, the overall atmosphere in the Lei family has become much more cheerful!
Lei's mother would find ways to prepare delicious food for them at every meal, Lei's father was in the mood to play the erhu, and Lei's second uncle no longer stayed in his room all the time. Even if he was using a cane, he was willing to walk around the room.
"What's wrong with your leg? Why are you limping? Did someone break it?"
Seeing him dragging his legs into the room, Mother Lei couldn't help but raise her voice in worry.
"Mom, can't you just hope for the best for your son? What's the point of discounts? Does your son really deserve a beating?"
Lei Zi frowned, looking unconvinced.
"With your philandering behavior, what else do you deserve but a beating?"
Seeing that he was still stubborn, Lei Mu knew that his leg was fine. She gave him a sharp look out of the corner of her eye.
"Aunt Wang is here to introduce you to a date, but you're complaining about this and that and you refuse to date! Tell me, where have you been hanging out late at night these days?"
"I..." Lei Zi hesitated, "Where can I go? Aren't you sleeping in my room? You're the one who wakes me up in the morning..."
"Don't try to fool me here! I've gotten up several times to check your room at night and there's no one there. Do you really think your mother is easy to fool?" Mother Lei glanced at him and said in a slightly slower tone.
"I'm not saying anything to you, but you're already a grown-up. If you really like a girl, you should marry her off officially. Don't do it in secret like a thief. It won't be good for the girl's reputation if the news gets out!"
If something really happens, will your family forgive you? By then, not to mention your leg, even your third leg will be in jeopardy!"
As Tang's mother spoke, she glanced at his crotch intentionally or unintentionally, with a warning in her eyes.
Lei Zi instantly clamped his legs together! He felt the surroundings suddenly become cold.
He did have a crush on a girl!
The two have been secretly together for more than two years!
He wanted to marry the girl in a formal way and bring her home as soon as possible.
That way he wouldn't have to climb the wall late at night every day, right?
But who can blame the girl's family for looking down on him?
They disliked his age and his lack of proper work, and that all he did was engage in speculation and profiteering that could cost him his life!
The girl couldn't persuade her parents, nor could she let him go, so the two of them had no choice but to drag on like this, but it was painful for him to climb over the wall every night...
Seeing that he looked so pitiful and had no desire to live, and that his legs seemed to be in pain, Lei Mu was reluctant to say anything more to him.
"What's wrong with your leg? Do you want me to get you some safflower oil?"
"No need! I just walked a little further and I'm tired!" Lei Zi limped down to sit on the sofa, raised the corner of his lips and smiled at Uncle Lei opposite him.
"Second Uncle is in much better shape today than yesterday! His eyes and mouth look almost the same as before! Who would have thought Second Uncle was sick before?"
"You are the only one who talks too much!" Second uncle pretended to be angry and glanced at him.
"Aren't you always being picked up and dropped off by cars, so cocky all the time? Why are you walking today? Is it that your speculation business finally can't continue?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in Lei's mother's tone!
Most people in this era, especially those of Lei Mu's generation, were frightened by the past ten years!
Things like speculation and profiteering were even more taboo. Let alone getting their support, even someone like Lei's mother who didn't strongly oppose it was already a rare sight!
Of course, Lei's mother objected many times but to no avail. She knew that if she continued to oppose, the mother-son relationship would be lost, so she had to settle for the second best and simply turned a blind eye.
"Mom, why don't you always expect me to be well?" Lei Zi explained helplessly.
"Today I'm helping Doctor Lan look at houses! Going from house to house, just walking around in the yards is enough to make my legs break!"
"Help Doctor Lan look for a house? Doctor Lan wants to buy a house in Guangshi?"
When Lei Mu heard this, she was instantly delighted!
Through the treatment of Uncle Lei, Dr. Lan's medical skills opened their eyes!
She used to worry about what would happen to Uncle Lei's follow-up treatment if Dr. Lan returned to Kyoto.
If anyone in the family gets sick or in pain in the future, we can't all travel all the way to Kyoto to see them, right?
But if Dr. Lan bought a house in Guangzhou, it would be a completely different situation! Doesn't that mean that she would come here often to live in the future?
This is also a great thing for them!
