Chapter 262 At night, I’ll let you shout enough!

It took another two days to get to Beijing.

In fact, in the era that Lin Wanxia was familiar with, the train might only take a few hours, and driving by yourself would not take more than a day.

However, in the 1980s, people still relied on paper maps, and the highways were not smooth. In addition, the maps were not detailed enough, so they had to stop and go, which took a lot of time.

When they arrived in Beijing, they happened to catch up to watch the national flag-raising ceremony.

Probably because there were more than one-third fewer people on the land of Jiuzhou, the square was not crowded.

Jiang Sinian was needless to say, and Lin Wanxia was also full of piety.

Even Xingxing, who was too sleepy to open his eyes, stood up straight at the moment the national anthem sounded, and his eyes became more and more determined as the national flag was raised.

After watching the national flag-raising ceremony, the family of three went to have breakfast first.

As expected of the capital, although it is also located in the inland, it has been affected by the reform and opening up to a greater extent than other cities, and is thriving everywhere.

The breakfast stalls were set up on the roadside early.

Lin Wanxia very enthusiastically suggested that the father and son try the most famous local snacks.

Halogenated fire-baked dumplings and soybean juice.

Halogenated fire-baked dumplings were okay. Xingxing disliked them, but Jiang Sinian remained calm.

When it came to soybean juice, the two of them couldn't bear it.

They couldn't even swallow it with their noses pinched.

Lin Wanxia was overjoyed.

Jiang Sinian then realized that Lin Wanxia herself didn't order soybean juice.

Jiang Sinian: "..."

Pointing at Lin Wanxia, ​​he threatened: "Just wait for me!"

It was too early, and Lin Wanxia was not afraid of him. She snorted and took them to other snack stalls.

The special breakfast is not the only breakfast you can eat.

There are all kinds of fried dough sticks, rice porridge, and fragrant buns.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Sinian sent Lin Wanxia and Xingxing to the guesthouse to settle down, and then carried his own luggage to report.

People who have been selected from all over the world do not set out from their old units at the same time.

But there will be a time to arrive on time. Except for the Air Force’s own transportation, all others take the train.

The train ticket will be reimbursed.

Jiang Sinian gave up the reimbursement and chose to drive himself.

I made an appointment with my comrades to meet at the train station to report together. Calculating the time, the comrades are almost there.

Since Lin Wanxia became pregnant, she has become more clingy than before.

She used to be an independent strong woman, but now she is like a little darling, hugging Jiang Sinian’s waist for a long time and whining and refusing to let go.

Jiang Sinian coaxed her again and again, and even Xingxing couldn't stand it anymore and pulled Lin Wanxia away, "Mom, my dad is going to be late."

Xingxing has been calling mom more frequently recently than before, but not all the time.

Lin Wanxia curiously asked him why he hadn't changed his words completely.

Xingxing said that Lin Wanxia used to be more like a sister than mom, but now she occasionally looks like mom.

Lin Wanxia: "..."

She suspected that she had become stupid for three years after pregnancy and couldn't even understand what a child was saying.

It was still Jiang Sinian who cleared her up: "I heard that maternal love is glorious. Maybe you are pregnant now, and you will radiate the light of a mother from time to time."

Lin Wanxia accepted this explanation well.

But he still suggested to Xingxing: "Except in the biological sense, I am your mother. But I prefer you to call me sister."

Xingxing: "..."

Blinking her big black eyes, "Why?"

"Sister makes me look younger! Anyway, it's just a title, and it doesn't affect our relationship."

Xingxing is small and has a high degree of acceptance, so she nodded without hesitation.

But Jiang Sinian vetoed it, "No! Isn't it a generation difference?!"

Lin Wanxia immediately shouted: "Hello, second uncle."

Jiang Sinian slightly raised the corner of his lips, and his eyes implied: "Tonight, let you call me enough!"

That night, Lin Wanxia did shout until her voice was hoarse, and she never mentioned the matter of letting Xingxing call her sister again.

***

After separating from Jiang Sinian, Lin Wanxia let herself go for two days and started working.

During these two days, she took Xingxing to visit all over Beijing and also visited several real estate agencies.

Now the house is not allowed to be bought and sold, and real estate agents are not active.

She wants to buy two courtyard houses next to each other.

She and Chen Shanhe will live in one, and leave one for Xingxing.

Now you can buy a courtyard house for about 10,000 yuan, and just leave it there without doing anything. In a few decades, you can become a rich woman.

But the appreciation is too slow, and you can't just invest all your money in real estate. You have to let money make money.

You still have to open a seafood restaurant.

Before coming to Beijing, Lin Wanxia made an appointment with Chen Manshu.

She was responsible for opening a store here, and Chen Manshu opened stores in Yingcheng and the provincial capital where she lived.

Lin Wanxia's business is no match for Chen Manshu, who has a natural advantage.

She only needs to be responsible for one city.

Of course, Lin Wanxia is not without plans and resources.

Needless to say, the plan is to choose a shopfront to open a restaurant.

The resource is to cling to Jiang Sinian.

Although Jiang Sinian seems to be unable to give him any help in business, Jiang Sinian's network of contacts is spread all over the country.

Like this time, Lin Wanxia wants to open a seafood restaurant in Beijing, and Jiang Sinian gave her a list.

The three people on the list are all locals in Beijing and retired soldiers.

Zhao Sen, the former squad leader of the kitchen squad, won the first prize in the cooking competition of the entire army's kitchen squad.

Qian Xudong, a famous little bully in Beijing before joining the army, there is no door in Beijing that he cannot enter, and there are things he doesn't know.

There is also Sun Qing. Compared with the other two, Sun Qing has no special features, or in other words, he does not have any special skills that Lin Wanxia can use. He used to be a sniper, and one of his ears was deafened by an explosion during the war, and his eyesight is also slightly affected.

Sun Qing was not among the candidates recommended by Jiang Sinian. It was Lin Wanxia who took the initiative to ask Jiang Sinian if any of his former comrades-in-arms needed help besides those who could help. For example, those who had difficulty supporting their families or just needed a job. Jiang

Sinian thought about it and recommended Sun Qing.

Lin Wanxia contacted the three of them one by one and arranged to meet in a teahouse near the guesthouse.

The teahouse was quite quiet. Xingxing sat at an empty table next to him and played with small toys he bought from a roadside stall.

Among the three people, Zhao Sen was the oldest, in his late 40s.

Qian Xudong was the youngest, only in his early twenties, and he had been a volunteer soldier for a few years.

Sun Qing was the most stable.

The three people sat in front of Lin Wanxia and were very reserved.

Lin Wanxia poured the tea and pushed it in front of them one by one, "Let me introduce myself first, I am Jiang Sinian's wife, my name is Lin Wanxia."

The three of them shouted in unison: "Hello, sister-in-law." It was

so neat that it seemed like they had rehearsed it in advance.

After introducing each other, Lin Wanxia went straight to the point, "I'm sorry to trouble you all to come here, I asked you three to come here because I want to ask for your help."

"Sister-in-law, please tell me if you have something to say, don't be so polite!" Qian Xudong was relieved when he heard that he wanted to help.

"I want to open a seafood restaurant in Beijing. I need you three to help me find a store, a chef and a shopkeeper."

"I can find a store!" Qian Xudong volunteered, patting his chest, "There is no place in Beijing that I don't know. If you ask me, I will find it for you."

Zhao Sen said: "Sister-in-law, if you don't mind, I can be your partner."
