Chapter 109

Bei Nannan is a bit of a big mouth and a bit snobbish. But she is not a bad person and has never done anything bad.

Several people in the dormitory know her well. With the idea of ​​less trouble is better than more trouble, they usually don't pay much attention to her.

But it seems that this is not the first time that Bei Nannan has targeted Qin Xiang.

Dingxiang and the others looked at Qin Xiang with some concern.

Qin Xiang raised her head and looked at Bei Nannan, "Why, are you curious again?"

"I am indeed curious." Bei Nannan said, "Look, they are all talking about how hard life is in the countryside. They even think about sending the little money from the school subsidy back home. They don't wear good clothes and eat well. You said you are also from the countryside, then why do you dress better than people in our capital and eat better than us?"

Qin Xiang laughed, "Isn't it okay if I have my own money?"

Bei Nannan was stunned, "You have your own money?"

She looked Qin Xiang up and down, "Where did you get the money to go to school before?"

Qin Xiang smiled, "I earned it myself." She didn't plan to tell others that she was doing business, so that people would not say she was arrogant and cause unnecessary trouble, but she didn't shy away from the fact that she was a self-employed person.

But before Qin Xiang could finish her words, Bei Nannan muttered, "Are you looking for someone to keep you as a mistress? I heard that some nouveau riche like to keep mistresses the most." After

she finished speaking, Qin Xiang's face turned cold, "Bei Nannan, for the sake of our roommates, you'd better shut up. Don't think that just because you like to eat shit, others like it too. I have money because I earned it from running a business honestly. It has nothing to do with other people. If I hear even a little bit of you ruining my reputation outside, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."

Although Qin Xiang had lectured her before, she had never said such harsh words. Bei Nannan shrank her neck and said, "I just said it casually. Are you so angry?"

"Of course not. "Guan Yuping curled her lips and said, "If I were Qin Xiang, I would have slapped your mouth to pieces. You are talking nonsense like you have eaten shit. You are just talking nonsense. If someone hears a few words, it will spread like wildfire and who knows how it will turn out."

Bei Nannan felt guilty, "But how did she open a store..."

Qin Xiang said coldly, "I didn't go to school before, and I have been running a store. I opened two clothing stores in our provincial capital. You can ask people in our provincial capital about this. I have been on TV and in newspapers, so you can know everything. If you ask a few more questions, don't talk nonsense here. Bei Nannan, I don't need to bother with you about other things. Even if you are beaten to death because of your broken mouth, it has nothing to do with me, but don't involve me. You'd better be honest. "

Several people in the dormitory stared at her unkindly. Bei Nannan felt aggrieved, "Is it not okay if I don't say anything?"

After saying that, she went straight to bed with an embarrassed face.

But this time, even Dingxiang, who had the best temper, was unwilling to coax her. She said quietly, "If someone in our place was rumored to have such gossip, they would really have no way to live. "

Others couldn't help but sigh.

Sometimes people don't care about the truth when they see the excitement, but only care whether the excitement they see is lively enough and exciting enough.

In comparison, what does the truth have to do with them.

Qin Xiang felt the same way.

Isn't her divorce just like this? It was obviously not her fault for the divorce, but in the eyes of everyone, her reputation was already bad because of the divorce. A woman who remarried doesn't deserve to find a good man again.

Qin Xiang went to college and started a new life. Although she didn't care about the rumors in the outside world, if there were such rumors, it would not be good for her, and it would also affect her making friends in school.

And Bei Nannan's mouth is really annoying. If you don't control it well, she will sell them sooner or later.

Meilin is very interested in her opening a store, "So how did you open it?"

"I just want to change my life. "Qin Xiang smiled and said, "I wanted to change my life. I happened to have a little money, so I went to Hangzhou with my third brother. By chance, I helped someone sell some clothes. Then I came back and saved money for a while, and then opened a clothing store in the provincial capital."

Meilin looked at her with admiration, "You are really amazing, but you said you didn't go to school? How did you do so well in the exam?"

Qin Xiang explained, "I didn't take the entire college entrance examination two years ago because of some things. This year, I wanted to be a self-employed person, so I applied to the school for not going to school. Fortunately, I did not disappoint the teacher's expectations and was admitted to Tsinghua University."

She said it lightly, but it shocked the others. Zhao Wenna said, "So, you were making money while we were studying late into the night."

"No. "Qin Xiang shook her head, "In the later period, I also studied late into the night like you did. The only difference is that you might be in school, but I was at home, relying on my own self-control to control myself to study."

Ding Xiang whispered, "That's also amazing. You stopped for two years in the middle."

Qin Xiang lied, "I didn't stop studying for two years, so strictly speaking, I studied two years more than you."

No one would verify the truth of such things, so they believed it when Qin Xiang said so.

However, several girls were very interested in Qin Xiang's shop and admired him very much.

Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "When I open a shop in the capital, I will invite you to come over to play, okay?"

Meilin laughed, "We must go. "

Bai Nannan suddenly got out of bed,"Are all your clothes from your store?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, most of them are."

"Then will you give us a discount?" Bei Nannan still had tears on her face. She seemed to have forgotten how to make Qin Xiang and the others cry. She only remembered to ask for discounts.

Qin Xiang was stunned and smiled, "As long as you can control your mouth, I will give you 20% off."

The new store only offers a 10% discount when it opens. Giving her a 20% discount is already a big honor.

Bei Nannan chuckled, with an embarrassed look on her face, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have doubted you so much."

Qin Xiang shook her head, "It's okay, it's all trivial."

"Actually, I wasn't the one who doubted this first." Bei Nannan hesitated and said, "It was Fu Yunmei from the class who said it, and I just heard it. "

Qin Xiang frowned and thought for a long time. It seemed that there really was such a girl. She was petite, spoke softly, had delicate features, and was a typical southern girl. She seemed to be from Suzhou. She was popular in the class.

"Why does she say bad things about people behind their backs?" Zhao Wenna pouted, "I was teasing her for being beautiful. It turns out she is a beautiful lady with a slender figure."

Bei Nannan waved her hands and said, "She didn't mention Qin Xiang directly. She just said that in the south, many girls from poor families look for some nouveau riche in order to have a better life, and get money to satisfy their material desires. Anyway, she said a lot, I heard a lot, and thought of Qin Xiang, so..."

Qin Xiang stroked his chin, "So she didn't mention me by name?"

"She didn't mention me by name, but..." Bei Nannan scratched her head, "It's just that when she said it, she sometimes looked at you."

Qin Xiang laughed, "Since she didn't say it, I can't do anything to her." It

can be seen that classmate Fu Yunmei is a very smart girl. She knows how to talk to others and guide others to do things they can't do.

But, she didn't seem to have said a word to Fu Yunmei, so why did she target her mother so much?

She glanced at Bei Nannan, then sighed, "Sure enough, beauty always makes people jealous."

Bei Nannan stared at her face and said faintly, "Your words are enough to make me jealous."

She was responded with a roll of the eyes.

After the things were prepared, their classes began. At this time, there were still many university courses scheduled. The only thing to be thankful for was that there were no classes scheduled in the evening.

Especially for students like them, there were not many people who had really come into contact with fashion design. They had to learn all the knowledge from scratch, and it was inevitable that they were a little hectic.

Qin Xiang was not busy, but she also started to calculate how to pave the surface according to the numbers that her third brother reported to her on the phone.

If there was no wholesale city, Qin Xiang would have bought both of the two stores that she saw that day.

But although there are government subsidies here in the wholesale city, the prices will definitely not be too cheap, so she can only reluctantly buy one storefront.

Retail is in the storefront, and wholesale is in the wholesale city.

The subsequent decoration of the store and the management of the goods in the later stage all need people to come over.

Mi Hongjun is the most suitable person, but if the third brother doesn't come, I'm afraid he won't be able to handle it.

He Liping and Tan Xiu are good, but the business in the provincial capital has only been open for less than half a year, and it is not easy to manage it in the capital.

Qin Xiang scratched her head, continued to calculate, and then counted the days.

It seems that the National Day is not long away.

She wants to go to Guangzhou, and the fastest way is to take a plane.

But these days, even if there is only an airport, it is difficult for ordinary people to buy tickets.

There is no way, Qin Xiang can only ask Guan Yuping for help.

Guan Yuping did not refuse. She looked at her and said, "Do you really want to buy a plane ticket to Guangzhou?"

Qin Xiang nodded. "Do you know that wholesale city? I plan to buy one when the time comes. I am going to Guangzhou this time just for the supply of goods. Taking the train is too slow and will take too much time."

Guan Yuping frowned and thought for a while. "Okay, I think of a way to buy it for you. We don't have classes on the afternoon of the 30th. If you can buy a ticket for the afternoon of the 30th, then go there in the afternoon. If it's on the 1st, then go on the 1st."

Qin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good to be able to buy it."

When we get to Guangzhou, we can ask Tuo Zhibin to find someone to buy a plane ticket to the provincial capital .

It's a five-day vacation. If it's really not possible, we can take two more days. We have to go all the way.

Qin Xiang didn't know if she could ask Guan Yuping for this matter.

But in the capital, you can't buy a ticket without some connections. She couldn't find anyone more suitable except Guan Yuping.

But a person suddenly popped up in her mind, that is Meng Huaiqing.

With Meng Huaiqing's identity, it should be easy to buy tickets, but Meng Huaiqing has not shown up since that meeting.

And Meng Huaiqing's meaning is very clear. Qin Xiang doesn't want to trouble Meng Huaiqing unless it is absolutely necessary.

Fortunately, Guan Yuping is very reliable and brought her a plane ticket within two days.

Of course, the price will not be cheap.

Guan Yuping's expression was complicated, "You are really willing to do this. This store is not even in sight, and you go to discuss cooperation first."

Qin Xiang smiled, "The wholesale market is ready. Not only will I go to discuss cooperation now, I will also have someone transport the goods directly to the capital."

This was also her decision after thinking about it.

Since the wholesale market was chosen in October, she couldn't waste this good time. She had to make time difference with others. After all, it was a wholesale market, so the decoration didn't need to be too good. She could just scrape off the white putty.

In addition, since the goods had to be delivered in advance, she had to find a warehouse in the capital as soon as possible. So she planned to buy the house from the owner of the shop she had seen before in the next two days. Although it was only two bungalows, it could be used as a warehouse temporarily.

After getting the plane ticket, Qin Xiang planned to go out and buy the shop when she had no classes in the afternoon.

Guan Yuping thought she was going out to buy something, so she said, "I'm going out too, let's go together."

Qin Xiang hesitated for a moment, "Okay."

After leaving the school gate, Qin Xiang said to Guan Yuping, "I'm planning to buy a storefront. If you want to buy something, come with me if you're not in a hurry?"

Guan Yuping was surprised, "Buy? Don't you want to buy something in the wholesale market?"

"Buy them all." Qin Xiang said with a smile, "Buy them first and use them as temporary warehouses. Once the place is cleaned up and a suitable warehouse is found, I will open the store."

Qin Xiang talked to her as they walked. After a few minutes, they arrived at a storefront and asked Guan Yuping, "What do you think?"

Guan Yuping raised her thumb and said, "Okay."

This location is very close to both Tsinghua University and Capital University, and there are many small shops in this area. The two storefronts that Qin Xiang liked are close to each other. The houses were obviously newly built by the landlord in the past two years, and they are very conspicuous in this location.

Guan Yuping had lived in the capital for so many years that she knew a lot. She looked at the front house and said, "But you can't just build a house on ordinary land. You'd better check whether the documents are complete, so as not to find problems after paying the money."

Qin Xiang really had experience in this matter. She had demolished the university town in the provincial capital and rebuilt it. She had also visited several places at that time, so she naturally understood everything.

She nodded, "I know."

The two were about to knock on the landlord's door when they suddenly saw a familiar figure.

Guan Yuping turned away and said with disgust on her face, "Why do we run into each other here? It's so unlucky."

Regardless of whether it was unlucky or not, He Chenghua still came over and saw Guan Yuping beside Qin Xiang, "Why are you here?"

Guan Yuping pretended not to hear, so He Chenghua looked at Qin Xiang. Qin Xiang helplessly, "I came here to discuss the sale of the house, and she came here to help."

"She helped?" He Chenghua looked at him mockingly, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Let's go." Qin Xiang

was stunned, "Where to?"

He Chenghua looked at her strangely, "Aren't you going to buy a storefront? Let's go."

Qin Xiang was even more puzzled. She was buying a storefront, why was he following her? What was their relationship?

She glanced at Guan Yuping, whose eyes were almost popping out, and suddenly understood. She nodded, "Okay."

Anyway, she would not suffer any loss in this matter. With such a tall and strong man in military uniform standing next to her, she felt particularly safe. The landlord might also be a little cautious and would not cheat her too much.

Qin Xiang raised her head and knocked on the door. After a while, the door opened. The landlord was a man in his fifties. When he saw Qin Xiang, he smiled, but when he saw He Chenghua next to him, he stood up and saluted, "Hello, comrade of the People's Liberation Army."

Qin Xiang chuckled, "Uncle Qiao, I came to discuss the house with you."

"Okay, come in." As he said that, Uncle Qiao made way for the three of them to go in.

Uncle Qiao was an old couple living alone. Originally, the house faced north and south, with three rooms in a row and a small courtyard.

Last year, the old couple renovated their house. Originally, they planned to do some small business in the capital and live there. But their son called and said his wife was sick and asked them to go over to take care of the children. Besides, their daughter-in-law also needed money for treatment. After thinking about it, the old couple decided to sell the house and go to live with their son.

However, houses were not easy to sell at that time. There were many people who wanted to rent houses, but few people could afford to buy them.

It was also at this time that Qin Xiang asked about it. The old couple wanted to sell it to Qin Xiang, but when they learned that Qin Xiang wanted to buy it, they also included the small courtyard and raised the price a lot.

For such a small courtyard, the old couple directly asked for 2,500 yuan, and Qin Xiang was naturally not happy.

If it was just to buy the two big shops, it wouldn't cost that much money. It was obvious that the old couple were asking for a higher price because they saw that she really wanted to buy it.

Qin Xiang certainly understood their parental love, but her money didn't come from the wind, especially now was the time when she needed money.

The yard was good for Qin Xiang. After all, it was a piece of land. It would appreciate in value sooner or later, but the appreciation was a matter for the future. It was not worth the price right now.

When they arrived in the yard, Master Qiao moved a stool for them to sit on, and then he started to complain about how difficult the conditions at his home were.

Before Qin Xiang could say anything, He Chenghua stood up immediately and said to Qin Xiang, "Let's go. Why are you sitting here? Are you listening to a play?"

"I..."

Uncle Qiao came over to stop her, his face looking a little bad, "What's wrong with you, the People's Liberation Army? This female comrade came to buy my house, we can just talk about it, why are you meddling in other people's business here?"

Qin Xiang suddenly realized that He Chenghua was helping her, and said, "Uncle, I have heard you say these words many times, and I also told you that I don't have that much money."

Uncle Qiao smiled, "You look rich, I don't believe you if you say you don't."

He Chenghua directly took Qin Xiang away, and Uncle Qiao was annoyed, "What are you doing?"

He Chenghua directly said to Uncle Qiao in the tone of the capital dialect, "Uncle, are you judging her as if she is from another place ? Are you not easy to bully? I am her boyfriend. After we buy this house, maybe we will live here and get married. Do you think this has anything to do with me?"

When these familiar words came out, Uncle Qiao was stunned at first, and then he laughed, "Oh, I didn't expect that this female comrade was so lucky to find the masters in our capital. In this case, let's not say anything. Let me give you a real price. Including the courtyard, we only want 2,100 yuan. No hesitation, one cent more or one cent less, we won't sell it."

If it was a siheyuan, Qin Xiang would have bought it without saying a word, but there was no siheyuan in this area. It was barely a house built by his family.

Qin Xiang roughly estimated the area. The house that can be used as the front house is two rooms built from three rooms. The area should be at least 40 square meters. Although the yard at the back is not very big, it should be at least 100 square meters. In fact, it is not a loss. It can be used as a warehouse directly after building something in the yard.

However, she glanced at He Chenghua. She didn't expect that He Chenghua saw the old couple's plan clearly and saw through their intentions in a few words. What

's more terrible is that as soon as they opened their mouths and spoke in the local dialect, Master Qiao changed his words directly.

This made Qin Xiang a little depressed.

It's not kind.

He Chenghua actually didn't know much about this aspect, and didn't know whether the price was appropriate or not. He just looked at Qin Xiang, "What do you think? We'll buy it if you like it, otherwise we won't buy it no matter how cheap it is. It's up to you."

The other person was so kind, and Qin Xiang couldn't hold him back. At this time, she said that they had nothing to do with each other, so she reluctantly said, "I just think this location is closer to the school, and you are sincere, so let's take 2,100."

As soon as she said that, Master Qiao also breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on his face became more sincere, "Don't worry, you won't lose money if you buy this house."

Qin Xiang laughed.

Of course not, when the house price goes up, this place will be valuable.

But she couldn't think that far ahead. Now she still had to consider the wholesale market in October, and she still didn't have the money.

Qin Xiang asked about some new house certificates, but Grandpa Qiao looked at Qin Xiang blankly and said, "We are from the capital and live under the emperor's feet. How can we not know this? We have all the certificates. If you want, we can transfer the ownership now. But we have some assets here. You have to give us three or two days to slowly get it out. Do you think it's okay?"

"Look at what you said, there's nothing wrong with it." Qin Xiang agreed immediately. It's better to do it today than to wait for a day. While there was plenty of time, several people went directly to the Housing Management Office.

Guan Yuping didn't say much during the whole process, and his eyes scanned Qin Xiang and He Chenghua back and forth.

He Chenghua rolled his eyes at her and said, "Keep your eyes open." Guan

Yuping quickly withdrew her words and whispered to Qin Xiang, "Tyrant."

He Chenghua was too lazy to pay attention to her. Guan Yuping then whispered to Qin Xiang, "You are so rich."

Qin Xiang smiled and said, "Not bad. The main thing is that I have two stores in the provincial capital, and I have finally saved some money."

"This family is rich enough." Guan Yuping did a little calculation. Her mother now earns 100 yuan a month and is so proud all day long. If it were 2,100 yuan, her mother would have to go without food and drink for 21 months, nearly two years, to save that amount. But Qin Xiang was able to take it out easily.

It was really amazing.

When they arrived at the Housing Authority, the staff of the Housing Authority asked about the situation. Qin Xiang also consulted some questions. After confirming that there was no problem with the house, they signed the agreement. The old couple waited here while Qin Xiang went to get the money.

He Chenghua followed him out, "I'll go with you."

Qin Xiang looked at him, "Thank you Instructor He for asking for help just now." He

Chenghua sneered, "If you hadn't called me instructor, do you think I would be too lazy to care about your business?"

Qin Xiang suddenly felt a toothache. This man must have some problem. He would die if he said something nice to him.

But it doesn't matter. She got the advantage anyway. When she came, her bottom price in her mind was actually two thousand three. She didn't expect to lose two hundred for nothing. She could keep the two hundred for something else.

He Chenghua wanted to satisfy his craving, so let him. It doesn't hurt or itch anyway.

Thinking that she would soon have another property in the capital, Qin Xiang became excited again.
