Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

"Chun is a very capable guy. Chunming, Xiaokun, what do you two think? Does what he said make sense?"

Seeing that Cheng Jianjun's words made sense, Yang Huajian and Mao Tutu were both frightened.

Having known Cheng Jianjun for many years, as they had worked in the same production team in the past, they all knew what kind of person Cheng Jianjun was.

I originally wanted to make fun of this guy Cheng Jianjun, but seeing this guy's attitude, it seems like he really understands it.

Han Chunming smiled and said, "That makes sense."

"Real stuff?"

"It's true and it's false."

"What do you mean?"

Yang Yukun said: "It's half true and half false, a new bottle to hold the old secrets."

"Uh..." Cheng Jianjun, who was talking freely, heard what Yang Yukun and Han Chunming said, and quacked like a duck whose neck was suddenly pinched: "It is absolutely impossible for a new bottle to be connected to an old one. This is clearly a genuine hammer-head bottle from the official kiln of the Southern Song Dynasty."

Uncle Guo said, "Chunming, Xiaokun, you must have seen it wrong. This hammerhead bottle is a complete whole from top to bottom and inside to outside. How could it be a new bottle with an old bottom?"

Cheng Jianjun said, "I see, Chunming, you must have taken a fancy to this Southern Song Dynasty official kiln hammer-headed vase of Mr. Guo, so you said it was a fake so that Mr. Guo could sell it to you at a low price. Then you can buy this Southern Song Dynasty official kiln hammer-headed vase and put it in your private museum."

"Cheng Jianjun, your uncle."

"I guessed it right, didn't I? Uncle Guo said I was our senior from the same dean, and he watched us grow up together, and you had the heart to lie to me."

"Fuck you." Han Chunming was so angry that he stood up and was about to beat Cheng Jianjun.

This grandson is such a piece of shit, he actually dared to slander him so blatantly.

"You must be angry because of shame." Cheng Jianjun quickly ran back to his house and closed the door. He shouted to Grandpa Guo through the window: "Grandpa Guo, this item is indeed a hammer-headed vase from the official kiln of the Southern Song Dynasty. Don't let anyone fool you."

Uncle Guo glanced at Yang Yukun and Han Chunming, put away his Southern Song Dynasty official kiln hammer-head bottle, and turned back to his home.

He recalled the old items he had bought before, all of which were identified as fakes by Han Chunming and Yang Yukun.

With his level of skill, how could he be fooled every time? It turned out that Han Chunming and Yang Yukun were deceiving him in order to buy the good things from him at a low price.

These old neighbors of his had ganged up on him to defraud a retired old man. They were such scoundrels.

"Fuck, Mr. Guo really thinks we are scammers."

The way Uncle Guo looked at them, it was obvious that he believed Cheng Jianjun's words and thought they were scammers who were trying to steal his good stuff.

"If he wants to believe what Cheng Jianjun said, let him be."

The old man doesn't believe them and is willing to treat Cheng Jianjun, a geek, as a real expert. That's his freedom.

But Cheng Jianjun said that they deliberately said the real thing was fake in order to buy the real thing from Mr. Guo at the lowest price, which ruined their reputation. This matter must be discussed in a proper way.

"Director Cheng, don't hide in the room anymore, come out and talk."

Yang Yukun waved to Cheng Jianjun and asked him to come out.

"Xiaokun, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say you were a liar."

Cheng Jianjun then remembered that when he called Han Chunming a liar, he inadvertently also cursed Yang Yukun, because Yang Yukun had also said that Uncle Guo's bottle was fake.

He didn't want to involve Yang Yukun in the grievances between him and Han Chunming.

"Chunming, Xiaokun, I'm sorry. He has a foul mouth. I apologize to you on his behalf. Please don't take it personally."

Cheng Jianjun often said all kinds of bad things about Han Chunming and Yang Yukun in front of Chen Xiuli, but can what he said behind their backs be the same as what he said in public?

Even if Mr. Guo’s stuff is real, such things cannot be said in front of Han Chunming and Yang Yukun. It would be too offensive.

Han Chunming said: "Cheng Jianjun, if you are still a man, don't let a woman clean your ass, otherwise I will look down on you for the rest of my life."

"Why am I not a man?" Cheng Jianjun opened the door and came into the yard. Han Chunming actually said that he was not a man.

Chen Xiuli said: "Jianjun, apologize to Xiaowu and Xiaokun."

"No, I did nothing wrong, why should I apologize?"

"Apologize."

"I'm sorry, I was just drunk and talking nonsense."

Seeing that Chen Xiuli was really angry, Cheng Jianjun apologized to Han Chunming and Yang Yukun.

Yang Yukun said: "Director Cheng, you can eat whatever you want but you can't say whatever you want."

Yang Huajian said, "That's right. Just because of what you said, Mr. Guo thinks Chunming and Xiaokun are liars. Who knows what they are saying behind their backs." Mao Ditu said, "You are so self-righteous. Chunming and Xiaokun are no more knowledgeable than you. They dare to call themselves experts with only half-knowledge. Chunming and Xiaokun have such a big private museum and such a big company, and they make so much money every year. Do they need to resort to such means to cheat Mr. Guo out of that broken bottle?"

Han Chunming said, "If it weren't for Xiu Li and the child, I would have beaten you up today. You only know one thing but not the other. You are pretending to know what you are talking about."

"Come in." Chen Xiuli pushed Cheng Jianjun, whose face was ashen, into the house.

Mao Ditu said, "Chunming, Xiaokun, do you want to deal with this guy and put him in a sack?"

Han Chunming said: "He is just a self-righteous clown. The more you pay attention to him, the happier he will be. If you care too much about this kind of person, it will only lower our vision."

"Withdraw."

"Lao Yang, let's go back too. It's already half past eight."

"Xiao Kun, I'll go to your house for breakfast tomorrow morning. I want to eat noodles with gravy."

"Row."

Yang Yukun called Pingping and Xiao Yumi and left the compound. Yang Huajian and Mao Ditu also followed.

It’s getting late, time to go home and sleep. Early to bed and early to rise makes you healthy.

…………

In the blink of an eye, it is the start of the school year again. Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping sent Xiao Zongzi, Pingping and Xiao Yumi to school to register for admission.

After school started, Xiao Zongzi officially entered the second grade of elementary school, Pingping and Xiao Yumi were promoted to the first grade of elementary school from kindergarten, and the three of them were in the same school.

After completing the admission procedures for the children, Fan Xiaojun treated them to a meal at Xueru Restaurant at noon.

While his daughter was still in kindergarten, Fan Xiaojun came to the primary school to register his nephew Hou Li.

After having lunch at Xueru Restaurant, Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping took Xiao Zongzi, Pingping and Xiao Yumi out for a walk and went to the mall to buy some stationery for the little ones.

“Tamale, Mom and Dad, look, this store is called “Tamale”.”

"When did a store appear here? I never really paid much attention to it. What does it sell?"

"Gold shop."

"Gold jewelry or something like that? How come it has such a name? A gold shop is actually called Corn Zongzi."

A family of five was strolling in Wangfujing and found a gold shop called Corn Zongzi on the street.

The headquarters of Zhiweilou Group is located in Wangfujing. Xu Jing would come here from time to time, but she seldom strolled on the street, so she didn't notice when a gold shop appeared on this street.

It’s a bit strange that a gold shop has such a name.

Pingping smiled and said, "The elder sister's name is Xiao Zongzi, the younger sister's name is Xiao Yumi, and this shop is called Yumi Zongzi."

Yang Yukun said with a smile: "Wife, guess why this shop is called Corn Zongzi?"

Xu Jingping said: "Don't you know?"

“I really do know.”

"Do you know the owner of this store?"

“See the logo on the sign? It’s the corporate logo of Pangu Group.”

"Xiao Kun, is this your store?"

"To be precise, this is a gold shop under the Pangu Group."

Pangu Group has several gold mines. Anasha and Yang Yukun proposed to build a chain gold shop brand based on the group's gold mines.

Yang Yukun agreed to Anasha's chain gold shop plan and asked Anasha to focus on developing the Xiaguo market.

The brand name of the gold shop chain is a nickname for small rice dumplings and small corns, namely corn rice dumplings.

So far, Corn Zongzi Gold Shop has opened two stores in the imperial capital, located in Wangfujing and Xidan respectively. There are also Corn Zongzi Gold Shops in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other places. There are already 55 gold shops operating in China.

"Since you're here, come in and take a look. I'll pick out some jewelry for you."

Yang Yukun brought Xu Jingping, Xiao Zongzi, Pingping and Xiao Yumi into the Yumi Zongzi Gold Shop.

Anasha listened to Yang Yukun's advice and hired designers who were well versed in the traditional culture of the Xia Kingdom. The styles of various jewelry embody the traditional cultural concepts of the Xia Kingdom and are beautiful without losing their connotation.

Yang Yukun did not reveal his identity. He picked out a few sets of jewelry that Xu Jingping and the children liked and then left. (End of this chapter)
