Chapter 100 is a bonus chapter for reader number 4064 who submitted three monthly tickets.
In the afternoon, Qi Hua arrived home and immediately noticed the many extra supplies in the house, assuming that strangers had moved into his home.
"Mom, I had someone buy these floor lamps. They're all high-quality stuff from overseas. What do you think? Aren't they nice?" Hearing the commotion downstairs, Fu Le ran up the stairs and saw his mother, who looked a little bewildered, in the living room.
"Mom, look, the washing machine, one for you and one for Dad, and one for me. You can free up your hands now. Mom, and this too, the bed sheets and duvet covers, all from the factory, ten sets, yours, and these ten sets are mine. These silk ones are for summer, these are pure cotton, and these are genuine fur ones for winter, and these are..."
"These clothes, Mom, are yours. They come in different styles, for all four seasons. This is a down jacket; it's very warm to wear. And these socks, and shoes..."
Fu Le tidied up all the newly built closets in her parents' room, cleared out all their old clothes, and put them in the new clothes that had been washed and dried that day. "Mom, I've washed and dried all of these. Starting tomorrow, you can wear new clothes. Look at your old socks, how many times have you patched them..."
Fu Le, on the other hand, acted like a mother, replacing all of her parents' household items with new ones, including her own. One beautiful and fashionable new outfit after another dazzled Qi Hua. She even forgot to ask where they came from, and began to change clothes according to her daughter's requests, smiling from ear to ear.
Fortunately, the clothing styles of later generations were not so strange as to be unwearable; most were still normal and suitable for each era. Therefore, Fu Le did not have much trouble choosing clothes; the only time he spent was finding the right size.
Fu Le placed several sets of mahogany glass cabinets in the living room and displayed beautiful stone carvings, adding a touch of luxury to the already opulent furnishings. If it weren't for the fact that displaying antiques could attract thieves, she would have really wanted to put them out.
"Mom, all these pots and pans are new, they're all good stuff." In the large kitchen of more than 50 square meters, the upper and lower cabinets were filled with new pots and pans, from small spoons and chopsticks to large rice cookers and frying pans. The rice cooker was just bought from the supermarket, because the ones in later generations are too smart and prone to malfunction.
Qi Hua stared at her perfect kitchen, speechless. She was so amazed that her mouth was agape, and she kept touching and exploring it, unable to stop marveling at it.
"Mom, take good care of our things. They're all good stuff. It would be a shame to lose them."
"Okay, I know, they're all good." She's not blind. "How much will these cost?" As the initial surprise faded, Qi Hua finally started to worry about the price of the items.
"Mom, your face tells you how good the cosmetics I make are, don't you?"
"Hmm. You sold another batch?" Qi Hua was very confident in her daughter's face cream. All the freckles on her skin had disappeared. Many people in the village asked her about it, but she kept it a secret. After all, her daughter's face cream fetched a good price, and villagers valued social niceties. She didn't want her daughter to lose money, so she simply said it was because she was in a good mood from going to bed early and getting up early. People stopped asking questions. If anyone wanted to ask more, she would avoid them. Over time, no one asked any more questions.
"Yes, the profit is huge. Even after exchanging all of these, I still haven't spent all the money. I can earn my own tuition fees."
"Hiss... so much?" Qi Hua gasped. "Keep it safe for yourself, don't let your dad know."
"I definitely won't tell." Fu Le gestured to indicate that he understood.
The house is now fully stocked, and only a small portion of the supplies have been delivered. This is the first time I've ever been troubled by having too much stuff.
So, how about opening a supermarket? That way, if there's another large-scale need for grains, oils, vegetables, fruits, or other supplies, she won't be caught short of supplies.
Since there isn't a large enough location to buy to open a supermarket, why not just apply for land approval and build it ourselves?
Bored out of her mind, Fu Le decided to take action immediately. Early the next morning, she accompanied her mother to the butcher shop and began looking for locations. Her only goal was to build a supermarket of her own. While there were large supermarkets in Singapore, they were all quite small. The largest was only two stories, with each floor measuring a mere two or three hundred square meters. They were pitifully small, and the variety of goods inside was limited. You had to go to many different places to buy everything you needed.
With her own supermarket, her Moon Charm direct sales store and Minyan pharmacy now have room to grow.
...
Zhou Han was summoned again, but this time he was alone, which made Sun Jian and Xu Mu uneasy. Had they been eliminated?
"You're overthinking it. I'm leaving."
"You have a bachelor's degree." These were the first words Fu Le said to Zhou Han when they met again.
“I didn’t get into a good school after graduating from high school, so I just joined the army. Later, I was recommended to a military academy,” Zhou Han stated.
"Okay, then you'll be my assistant from now on. There are many things I can't do, you can handle them."
"yes."
"I'm currently looking for a place to build a five-story building. It doesn't need to be too big, just ten acres. There will be one basement level and four floors above ground. The basement level will be a warehouse, the first floor will be for small stalls, and the floors above the second floor will be a supermarket. Parking space will be left around the supermarket, and an elevator will be installed. This is my plan..." Fu Le showed his simple blueprints, the lines of which were crooked and curved, making Zhou Han frown.
"What's wrong? Is the design flawed?" Fu Le looked at Zhou Han with a puzzled expression.
Zhou Han's answer was to find a pen on the table, take a few sheets of white paper from the printer, and then start drawing.
Fu Le: ...
If you dislike it, just say so! Why are you keeping quiet?!
With a few strokes, Zhou Han created the outline, the lines were straight and the proportions were clear. Fu Le was completely dumbfounded, "What did you do in the army before?"
"I'll do anything," Zhou Han said without looking up, his hands still busy.
Fu Le: ...
"Didn't you say you didn't get into your desired university?"
"Yes, I didn't get into the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, so I gave up."
Fu Le: !!!
She felt like her intelligence was being crushed. What should she do? Her grades at No. 2 High School were still a bit far from those of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. She could only be considered among the top students in a school like No. 2 High School. In several joint exams, she barely made it into the top 50 in the county. For the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, she needed to be at least in the top 15. If the questions were a little easier, she would need to be in the top 10.
At that moment, she certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to ask Zhou Han how many points he was short.
Having been dealt a blow, Fu Le told Zhou Han his thoughts and requests, then rode off on his bicycle, asking the accountant to take Zhou Han to buy a motorcycle for public use.
