After the hot pot, both Cui's father and son were satisfied. Cui Siwei was sweating profusely while eating, but he never stopped eating and drank three bottles of ice soda in a row.
It was already two o'clock when they came out of the store. Gong Linglong immediately drove them to Jinghua Hotel. Mr. Xie had called in advance to make arrangements, so the procedures were very quick this time, and it was done in three minutes. The staff were also very enthusiastic and escorted them all the way to their room.
The hotel had arranged the news interview for the afternoon. Cui Zhiyuan attended in a suit and tie. Gong Linglong and Cui Siwei went with him to watch, but neither of them appeared in front of the camera.
The interview was very formal and serious, lasting twenty minutes, and ended with a photo taken for the newspaper.
Cui Zhiyuan came out with a smile on his face. He looked at his two children and asked with a smile, "How was your performance just now?"
"very good."
It was the first time Cui Siwei saw him being interviewed, and he just kept grinning.
Seeing his son's approval, Cui Zhiyuan's smile deepened. He looked at his daughter again, looking forward to her evaluation.
"Looks like a decent person."
Gong Linglong's evaluation has two more words.
Cui Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "I thought Linglong was complimenting me."
After the matter was over, Gong Linglong was ready to go back. As she left, she said, "My father-in-law called me and said you guys have an appointment to meet on Sunday. So come to my house for dinner on Sunday morning. Ask my aunt and her son to come along."
"Okay, we will definitely be there on time." Cui Zhiyuan had originally wanted to arrange time to visit.
After leaving Jinghua Hotel, Gong Linglong did not go home, but went straight to the small square where the men and children set up stalls. She saw that they were indeed setting up stalls to sell goods there, and several stalls were crowded. She quickly parked the car and went over to help.
Today, the four of them, father and son, along with Song Tao and Cui Wendong, were selling electronic watches, table lamps, alarm clocks, etc. There were a lot of people buying goods, and there was also someone with bad intentions who wanted to steal things because the three children were young. He was making trouble here just now and was caught by Lu Jingchuan and scolded.
"Sister-in-law, you're just in time. Go get the goods for us. Two hundred more electronic watches, a hundred desk lamps, and a box of alarm clocks."
Song Tao and his team were almost sold out, but they didn't have time to go to the warehouse to get more goods. Cui Wendong didn't have much stock left either, and the goods worth 2,000 yuan that were ordered earlier were basically sold out.
This time he raised his hand too, "Bring me some too, I'll pay you later."
Gong Linglong nodded and immediately drove to the warehouse. She had delivered a batch of goods here before, and there was actually still a lot of stock in the space, but she had to sell out the ones in the warehouse before delivering them.
It was very convenient to deliver the goods with a car. The round trip took less than half an hour. Gong Linglong not only got the goods they wanted, but also brought back twenty watches.
The watch was given to Lu Jingchuan to sell, and Gong Linglong used a loudspeaker to call out, "Haicheng brand all-steel mechanical watches have arrived. We have both men's and women's styles. No watch ticket is required. They are 145 yuan each. Quantities are limited, so hurry up and take a look if you need them."
The watches are expensive and not many people can afford them, but some people still come over to take a look. They don’t require receipts, so there are still quite a few people who are interested.
They closed the stall when it got dark. They sold watches for 12 yuan, and there were not many other items left, not even a single electronic watch. Everyone counted the number, Cui Wendong and his friends settled the money, and everyone immediately packed up and left.
When they got home, Han Jidu had already gotten home from get off work and was bathing his son. Seeing them, he immediately asked, "What good stuff did you sell today? Why are there so many people gathered in front of your stall?"
When he passed by the stall on his way home from get off work, he saw that they were too busy and were surrounded by people in three layers inside and three layers outside. He could only hear their voices from outside.
"Grandpa, today we sold digital watches, table lamps and alarm clocks, and we also sold 12 watches."
Lu Chuming entered the room in high spirits, rushed to him holding a bag of money, and showed it happily: "Grandpa, look, this is our net profit today."
Han Ji took a look and chuckled: "More than a thousand yuan?"
"More than 1,600."
On the way back, the three brothers had already settled their accounts.
They earned more than 1,600 yuan. Song Tao and Cui Wendong didn't earn that much, but they also earned 700 to 800 yuan. Now the three of them were settling accounts in the small house rented by Cui Wendong.
Cui Paner went home after work. She sold a lot of goods today and made a lot of money. Cui Wendong gave her fifty yuan as a reward and also gave her an electronic watch.
After the three of them finished counting the money, Song Tao was so happy that he took off. "Let's go. I'm starving. Let's go eat."
"Let's go, it's my treat."
Cui Wendong was also done. After deducting all expenses, his net profit today was seven hundred and fifty, which was more than what he had earned in the previous half month.
"Okay, you treat today, and we'll treat you tomorrow." Song Tao was straightforward. He took the things and left after he closed the door.
As the three of them left the house, they saw Cui Pan'er coming crying. Cui Wendong hurriedly asked, "Pan'er, what's wrong?"
"Second brother, my money was snatched away by my aunt, and she pushed me down and scratched my arm, but grandma sided with her." Cui Pan'er cried so hard that her eyes were red. She stretched out her arm to show him. The wound was quite long and was still bleeding.
Cui Wendong's face turned grim as he said to Song Tao and Li Chong, "Song Tao, Li Chong, I'm sorry, I have to take care of some family matters. I won't be having dinner with you. I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night."
"Okay, take Pan'er to get bandaged and apply medicine." Song Tao waved his hand.
Looking at the backs of the brother and sister as they hurriedly left, Li Chong sighed with emotion: "Their family really... their life is even worse than mine."
Li Chong's family has average economic conditions, but the family is united and harmonious, and the family relationships are simple. His parents love and spoil their children, and his brothers and sisters help each other. It is ordinary and simple but quite happy.
Song Tao smiled and said, "Every family has its own problems."
Cui Wendong first took his sister to the clinic to treat and bandage her wounds, then went to the police station in the dark and angrily took the police to arrest someone.
After robbing the money, Cui Minzhi was still at her parents' home. Qian Mengping had a big fight with her at home. The two sisters-in-law had just had a fight and smashed a lot of things in the house, making it a mess. There were also many neighbors watching the fun outside.
Seeing Cui Wendong calling the police, Cui Minzhi's face changed on the spot. The two elders of the Cui family also looked unhappy and scolded their grandson for making a fuss out of nothing.
The nephew and niece were so stubborn that it was useless for Cui Minzhi to make a fuss. In the end, she was taken away by the police, and the money she had stolen was returned to Cui Paner.
After the police took the man away, Cui Wendong made arrangements with a stern face: "Mom, you and Pan'er pack your luggage tonight. I'll rent another house outside, and you and your nephew can move out."
"Wendong, what do you mean?" Old man Cui frowned.
"Grandpa, my aunt and her family don't have a home to return to. It seems they plan to live here for a long time. Let them take care of you here and we will move out."
Cui Wendong didn't say anything too harsh, giving his elders the last bit of face. Without even looking at his two cousins, he said to Qian Mengping, "Mom, I'm going to eat first. I'll rent a house tomorrow morning."
"Okay, Wendong, go eat."
Qian Mengping had just had a big fight with her sister-in-law. Her throat was hoarse and she was very tired. After she finished talking, she went into the house.
