Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 358 Envy
the next morning.

Li Chengtao came to work in the tea building as usual.

It is said to be for work, but in fact it is to catch fish.

Although after Guan Xiaoguan's clarification, he was not labeled as a hooligan, but after all, he had already left a bad impression in the hearts of the employees, and they didn't dare to get too close to him on weekdays. I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, I'll let him take advantage of it.

In desperation, he had no choice but to lie flat.

Except for what Guan Xiaoguan ordered, he usually stayed at the counter to help with the checkout, and greeted the guests.

Just when he finished checking the ingredients in the back kitchen, he just wanted to sit down with a cup of tea and read a novel.

Suddenly, a girl with twin ponytails walked in poking her head.

He saw that the other party had a somewhat similar face to Cai Xiaoli, and he reacted instantly, and then hurriedly got up to meet her.

After all, he had liked Cai Xiaoli for so long, and they were comrades-in-arms in the trenches. No matter what, he had to help Cai Xiaoli take care of her sister.

Moreover, the moment he saw this girl, it was as if he had returned to the beginning. When he saw Cai Xiaoli for the first time, his heart trembled slightly.

He knew that it was a heart-pounding feeling.

"Well, I'm looking for Boss Li, is he there?"

Cai Xiaoyun dodged his eyes for a while, and said with some embarrassment.

As she spoke, she murmured in her heart.

How can this person look at others like this?
It feels a little weird.

Seeing Cai Xiaoyun's reaction, Li Chengtao hastily withdrew his fiery gaze, smiled awkwardly and said, "I am the boss here, you should be Cai Xiaoli's younger sister!"

"Well, my sister asked me to come and report to you."

Cai Xiaoyun nodded and said softly.

"Strange. No wonder I think you look so much like Cai Xiaoli! Come on, I'll take you to the office to go through the entry procedures."

Li Chengtao's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile on his face.

Not to mention how enthusiastic it was.

Cai Xiaoyun glanced at Li Chengtao, nodded slightly in agreement, and then followed Li Chengtao to the office on the second floor to go through the entry procedures.

Soon, with Li Chengtao's caring help, she easily completed the formalities and was arranged to study with Li Chengtao at the counter.

Guan Xiaoguan didn't say anything about it. Anyway, her relationship with Cai Xiaoli is not very good. As long as it doesn't affect the normal work of the tea building, and she doesn't force her to be a hooligan, then she won't meddle in other's business.

In this way, Li Chengtao smoothly re-entered a new licking journey.

With his great hospitality, Cai Xiaoyun also quickly adapted to work, and had a faint liking for him.

In the blink of an eye, a week passed.

During this period of time, Li Chengtao completely forgot about the fact that the opposite door wanted to poach his own chef, and wandered around Cai Xiaoyun all day long, and with his identity as the boss and meticulous care, he successfully won Cai Xiaoyun a lot of goodwill.

Although Cai Xiaoli didn't take the initiative to tell Han Chunming about it, Han Chunming still found out about it from Meng Xiaoxing's big mouth.

In this regard, he is happy to see it succeed, so that he will not have to think about introducing a partner to Li Chengtao in the future.

In addition, after this period of development, the warehouses of waste recycling companies are full, and trading companies have also arrived at the time to pick up the goods, so they need to go to Guangzhou.

This afternoon, he found time to go to the warehouse of the waste recycling company, put all the waste into the system warehouse, and then went to the trading company to check the order with Cai Xiaoli and adjust the purchase types of hardware accessories.

Although according to what he meant, Cai Xiaoli did not take the initiative to expand the market, but there are still many customers who come to the door by themselves, waving money to seek cooperation.

After several layers of screening, some high-quality customers were finally absorbed, so the total order this time was hundreds of thousands more than last time, reaching nearly 400 million, just in time for the 300 million goods he ordered last time. All sold out.

"By the way, Xiaoli, there is 20 yuan in it. You take it first, and buy a bigger house another day, so that your parents and younger sisters can move there."

After finishing the business, Han Chunming took out a bearer passbook from his pocket and handed it over, and said with a soft smile.

Cai Xiaoli looked at the passbook in front of her with some surprise, and a warm current surged in her heart.

During this period of time, she thought for a long time, and finally, after playing poker with Han Chunming last night, she expressed her idea of ​​moving her family to Lichun.

At that time, Han Chunming did not nod in agreement, but said he would handle it.

Originally, she thought it was just an excuse for Han Chunming to shirk, but she didn't expect that Han Chunming would directly give her a huge sum of 20 yuan to buy a house by herself.

In this way, it was like giving her the money, and she didn't have to worry that if she broke up with Han Chunming in the future, her family would have to move out.

"Why are you standing there? Hurry up and put it away!"

Han Chunming frowned, and urged with a smile.

"Ok!"

Cai Xiaoli took a deep look at Han Chunming, nodded her head in agreement, then reached out and put the passbook into the handbag.

Although according to the shares of the trading company, she can get so much money in the near future, but this is completely different from Han Chunming giving her money on his own initiative.

This means that Han Chunming really treats her as his own woman and can take care of her feelings.

Therefore, she became more and more calm about becoming Han Chunming's lover.

For so many years, she has worked so hard, isn't it just to make her family live a better life?

Since Han Chunming can bring her what she wants, it doesn't matter if she turns a blind eye?
As long as Han Chunming doesn't make out with other women in front of her, then she will accept it as such.

Han Chunming didn't know what was going on in Cai Xiaoli's mind. Seeing that Cai Xiaoli had put away the passbook, he smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to hold Cai Xiaoli in his arms, and said, "No matter what happens in the future, don't keep it in your heart. I hope you and I am together, every day is happy."

"Ok!"

Cai Xiaoli rubbed her face against Han Chunming's chest, a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Don't go home tonight, I'll make you a delicious meal!"

From top to bottom, Han Chunming looked at the whiteness in the neckline, and said eagerly.

"no!"

Cai Xiaoli stared, then immediately shook her head and refused.

She knew what Han Chunming meant, and she was a little greedy for Han Chunming's delicious food, but she just played a poker tournament with Han Chunming last night, so she really had more energy than she wanted.

"Okay! Then you will leave work early and go back to have a good rest. I will go to Guangzhou tomorrow, which will take about three or four days. If you have anything to do, wait until I come back."

Han Chunming said with some disinterestedness.

I don't know if it's because Bajiquan is too masculine, but since he broke through with Cai Xiaoli, he found that his needs are much stronger than before.

Therefore, every time he finished playing poker with Cai Xiaoli, he still had something to say, which made him very distressed.

If this continues, I'm afraid he will have to think about finding a few more opponents.

"Then pay attention to your own safety and call back if you need something."

Cai Xiaoli looked at Han Chunming tenderly, and said softly.

Although there is no mobile phone yet, if you are willing to spend money, it is easy to install a landline phone.

Today, in addition to the trading company having installed fixed-line telephones, the waste recycling company and various regional sites in Wutongyuan have also installed fixed-line telephones to facilitate their daily business operations.

"Okay, I got it!"

Han Chunming reached out and rubbed Cai Xiaoli's head, nodded with a smile in agreement, and then got up and left the trading company under Cai Xiaoli's reproachful eyes.

Not long after, when he drove back to Wutong Courtyard, and wanted to go home and instruct Meng Xiaozao to cook, he was stopped at the gate of the courtyard.

"Hey, hey, look here!"

He turned his head to look, frowned, and said with some surprise: "Broken Hou, why are you sitting here?"

"Oh! Good boy, if I hadn't come here to take a look, I really wouldn't have known that you were the one who ruined my job!"

Poor Hou sneered, and said angrily.

In the past month, he found that every time he went to the street to collect junk, his business became worse and worse. In the end, he didn't even receive anything for several days.

Originally, he thought that the state-run scrap yards had changed their policies, but when he came to Wutongyuan today, he realized that it was Han Chunming who was behind it, and he was immediately furious.

Although Han Chunming's doing this is understandable, but he and Han Chunming didn't know each other for a day or two. Even if you don't bring him to make a fortune together, you should mention it to him!

"Ouch! Look at what you said, I originally wanted to work with you, but you don't agree!"

Han Chunming was stunned for a moment, and explained with a hasty smile.

"Did you say you want to start this waste recycling company? If you told me that you want to start this business, can I not agree to you?"

Broken Hou asked with a straight face, in a deep voice.

"It's not too late to say it now! Calm down, so that if you like this business, I can give you some shares!"

Han Chunming's heart skipped a beat, he hehe smiled and comforted him.

Anyway, money is endless, he doesn't mind pulling up the tattered Hou, and by the way, he can also reward the pen system.

"You can pull it down! I don't want to take advantage of you."

Broken Hou's expression softened a little, he waved his hand and said.

"Then don't regret it!"

Seeing this, Han Chunming didn't continue to persuade him, and joked with a smile.

"Whoever regrets is the grandson!"

Broken Hou said a little angrily.

"Come on! If you want to say that, I can rest assured!"

Han Chunming followed the Huatou and said the words to death directly, without any intention of being polite to Poor Hou.

Although he wants to collect system rewards, it doesn't mean he wants to be broken.

"Humph!"

Broken Hou snorted coldly, with a look of disdain on his face.

Afterwards, he turned his head and glanced at the Santana, and said a little sourly, "You guys can do it! I haven't seen you for a while, and this is an imported car!"

"Hey, it's okay, how about I drive you to the street for a few laps now?"

Han Chunming joked with a smug smile.

"Come on! I don't care about sitting on this thing!"

Poor Hou rolled his eyes, and said a little stiffly.

Although the reform and opening up have been carried out these years, the upsurge of antique collection has not yet come. He now has some precious antiques, but not much money.

If he was really asked to buy such an imported car, he probably wouldn't be able to afford it if he sold his whole body.

"Okay, let's go in and sit down, I'll treat you to a good drink!"

Han Chunming didn't continue to tease Po Po Hou, but turned around and invited.

"It's almost there!"

Broken Hou's eyes lit up, and he nodded with some satisfaction.

After speaking, he followed Han Chunming into the Indus Courtyard.

Along the way, the employees of the scrap company greeted Han Chunming warmly and respectfully. Song San knew that Han Chunming was back, so he walked out of the office on purpose and briefly reported the situation to Han Chunming.

Poor Hou looked at this scene, not to mention how awkward it was.

If he had known this was the case, he should not have agreed to Han Chunming's invitation.

Han Chunming casually sent Song San back to continue working, then called Meng Xiaozao over, and brought Broken Hou into the middle courtyard.

Only then did Potty Hou realize with belated awareness that the entire courtyard with three entrances belonged to Han Chunming.

He stared at the huge courtyard for a while, then sighed with some distaste: "There is an old saying that people should treat each other with admiration after three days of farewell. You really let me experience it once."

"Oh! You're still dragging Wen with me, isn't it just a yard? Please pick out ten or eight of the treasures in your house tomorrow, how about I give you this yard?"

Han Chunming frowned, and joked with a chuckle.

"Stop it, I'm telling you, don't even think about my precious things, even if you give me ten yards like this, then I won't do it!"

Poor Hou didn't hesitate at all, and directly refused.

For him, those antiques are his favorites. If those antiques were gone, he wouldn't even be able to sleep well. The yard is useless!

Han Chunming also understood this matter, so he dared to make this joke.

If you really want to ask him to change it, he is still not happy!

After all, he is not as obsessed with antiques as the original body. Moreover, after collecting during this period of time, there are at least hundreds of antiques in his hands, many of which are worth over [-] million in later generations, so he is not interested in thinking about rags Hou that little baby!

What's more, there are so many antiques in the world, if he only eats but doesn't vomit like Pixiu, when will he be a head?
As a master of antique appreciation, he understands that the joy of collecting lies in contentment, in excavating the historical significance of antiques, and in appreciating the craftsmanship contained in antiques.

Instead of being like a miser, wanting to get whatever antiques you see.

Not long after, he asked Meng Xiaozao to cook a few dishes for drinking, and accompanied the tattered Hou under the plane tree, eating and drinking leisurely.

However, before drinking, Poor Hou stared at the Ming dynasty red sandalwood lounge chair and tea table for a long time, his eyes full of envy.

When Han Chunming saw Poorhou's reaction, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.

At the same time, an idea popped up in his mind, if the furniture in the Wutong courtyard were replaced with antique furniture in the future, he would probably be envious of the dead!
