Chapter 338 Drinking and Chatting

Ten minutes later, all the dishes were fried and brought to the table one by one. There are a total of eighteen dishes, including chicken, fish, and a plate of donkey meat in sauce, which is enough for a feast. The presentation of various dishes may not be as good as in restaurants, nor are the presentations as exquisite as those in restaurants, but the advantage is that the ingredients are real, the portions are large and filling, and the aroma of the food and the familiar taste are full of home. the taste of.

"Dinner is ready, Aunt and Dad, please hurry up and take your seats." Qiao Ruida went to the living room and called her father and Tang Xiaoman to come over for dinner.

"Good food goes with good wine, Xiaoda, go to the wine cabinet and bring over the half-drunk bottle of Wuliangye original wine. Let's take this opportunity to drink a few glasses." Qiao Jingkang is not a drinker, but When something happy happens, I like to have a few drinks. In the past, Qiao Ruida was too young to drink liquor, so he could only drink alone. Ever since Qiao Ruida came of age, she often took her son to have a few drinks together during holidays.

Qiao Ruida went to the basement of the villa, where there were two wine cabinets dedicated to storing wine, one for white wine and one for red wine, with constant temperature and humidity, which was quite professional. These two huge wine cabinets are now filled with more than half of the wine. Some of them were purchased by Qiao Jingkang himself, some were gifts from relatives and friends, and some were filial gifts from his son. Among them, the Wuliangye original wine that Qiao Jingkang mentioned was brought back by Qiao Ruida from the capital to honor his father. It is priced at 6 yuan and has a net content of L. With the ceramic wine jar, it weighs more than kilograms. It is such a big jar. . The bright red ceramic jar is particularly eye-catching when placed in the wine cabinet. Qiao Ruida opened the cabinet door, picked up the jar of Wuliangye raw wine and weighed it. It weighed more than ten kilograms. She must have drunk a lot, and it was much easier to carry it. For white wine, just drink this jar of Wuliangye, and for red wine, the two bottles Tang Xiaoman brought are enough for the three girls to drink, so there is no need to get more.

When Qiao Ruida returned to the restaurant on the first floor with the wine jar, everyone was already seated. Du Qingqing opened the red wine with a corkscrew and was pouring it into the decanter. Five glass goblets were also placed on the dining table. However, Qiao Jingkang didn't plan to drink red wine. He prepared a bone china flask and two small wine cups, and said, "You three women will drink red wine, and Xiaoda and I will drink white wine."

Seeing Qiao Ruida bringing the wine jar, Qiao Jingkang opened the lid of the small wine jug and said, "This wine is good wine, with a mellow taste and a long aftertaste. But the packaging is too exaggerated. It's too big to pour the wine into such a big wine jar." Sorry, let's pour it into the wine bottle."

Qiao Ruida opened the cork on the wine jar, and a strong aroma of white wine instantly rushed out of the bottle and spread quickly throughout the restaurant. It is worthy of being a strong-flavor liquor with a high content of 70%, and the aroma of this wine is overbearing. Qiao Ruida controlled the tilt of the wine jar, while Qiao Jingkang held the small wine flask and carefully received the poured wine. The two of them cooperated to complete a simple pouring task, which was indeed inconvenient.

The white wine and red wine were poured one after another. Qiao Jingkang, the head of the family, was the first to speak up, beckoning everyone to start, "Mr. Tang, Qingqing, pick up the glasses and let's drink one together."

"Okay, let's raise a toast together. It's more or less casual." "Aunt Tang, it's our first time sitting together. I'd like to propose a toast to you."

With Qiao Jingkang taking the lead, the dining table soon became lively. Drinking and eating, chatting about everyday things, the two families soon became familiar with each other. After two glasses of red wine, Yao Miaozhi said with emotion: "It's rare that Ruida came back from the capital today. The family reunited and prepared a table full of delicious food. It's a pity that Xiaoxue girl has to live in school. Without this, she won't be able to eat!" "

Tang Xiaoman put down the goblet, took a bite of the food, and then answered: "Xiaoxue will be in her senior year of high school this year. Time is tight, so it is right to choose to live on campus."

"Yes, I am in my third year of high school. Studying is already very stressful, and I have to prepare for the Math Olympiad, so there is not enough time. I heard she said that she had to study until midnight every night. When she came back last month, her face was so bright She lost a lot of weight and felt really bad for me. I persuaded her to give up the Mathematical Olympiad competition and concentrate on preparing for the college entrance examination, but she was still unwilling, saying that it would be a pity to give up just because she had finally broken through and entered the national competition.”

Yao Miaozhi is quite proud of Qiao Ruida and Qiao Ruixue. My son is usually playful and doesn't like to study, and his academic performance has always been mediocre. He originally thought that he would be very successful if he could get a second grade in the exam. At the critical moment of his dream, his son suddenly woke up and began to study hard, and his grades kept rising. In the end, during the college entrance examination, he became a blockbuster and won the top prize in science in the province, becoming the envy of other people's children. My daughter's academic performance has always been good. In every exam, it is common for her to get first place in her class or first grade. After entering high school, with her brother as a role model, Xiaoxue studied harder and never missed the first place in various examinations. In her senior year of high school, she signed up for the Mathematics Olympiad, passed all the tests, and entered the national competition. This is very rare for a girl.

"That's not true. When Qingqing was in her senior year of high school, she stayed up late every day to answer questions, which was very mentally taxing. No matter how much nutritious food she ate, she still lost weight. What's more, Xiaoxue also had to prepare for the Mathematical Olympiad. I heard that the Olympiad The questions are extremely difficult, and it will definitely consume more brain power. As a girl, it is quite impressive that Xiaoxue can enter the National Mathematical Olympiad. I heard that if she can win the first prize in the National Mathematical Olympiad, even if she cannot enter. I don’t know if it’s true that the national team can also be recommended by several famous universities?”

"It should be true. I checked the information. In previous years, those who participated in the National Mathematical Olympiad and won the individual first prize were basically accepted by the top ten universities in the country. However, it is quite difficult to get the individual first prize. There are hundreds of thousands of math students participating in high school mathematics leagues across the country every year, and only a few hundred of them can win gold medals. About the top 60 students in the final competition can be recommended, and the remaining gold medal and silver medal contestants will be qualified. You can also get the special qualification for admission to the college entrance examination." When talking about the topic of their children's education, the two mothers were full of emotions and talked endlessly. Du Qingqing would occasionally interject, but his participation was not high. Qiao Jingkang and Qiao Ruida, father and son, were drinking and chatting about mobile phone sales.

"When the second-generation Reda mobile phone was first launched, one of our stores sold more than 500 units on the first day, with a turnover of more than 100,000. In the following days, sales continued to be booming, with daily sales exceeding 50,000. Above. At the end of the month, the sales volume actually exceeded 2 million. I thought this sales performance was quite exaggerated. This time, Xiaoda mobile phone went on sale with even greater momentum. These days, consumers have been queuing up to buy, and some people even buy three or five units, just like mobile phones for free. According to statistics these days, the daily sales were more than 300,000 on the second day of release. The sales volume was the most exaggerated. On that day, Xiaoda sold nearly 3,000 mobile phones and hundreds of MateBook laptops. These days, the sales of Xiaoda mobile phones are booming, and the business in the store is so good that the few clerks can't bear it. It's so busy. Sometimes there are too many customers and the clerk is really busy, so your mother and I have to take care of it. That's why I came back a little late today." When talking about the business in the store, Qiao Jingkang's face was full of excitement and his face was flushed. , as if drinking a lot of wine. In fact, Qiao Jingkang had only drank three glasses of liquor at this time. Judging from his drinking capacity of more than one kilogram, he would definitely not be drunk. There is a saying that "if you are not drunk, everyone will get drunk." Sure enough, career is a man's lifelong pursuit and the best stimulant.

Qiao Ruida picked up the jug, filled her father's glass with wine, and said, "It's really hard for those few shop assistants to receive thousands of people a day. At the end of the month, don't forget to give them a big red envelope. In the store The business is so good, Dad, have you ever thought about opening two more branches in Decheng City? We can also recruit some sales and after-sales agents in the towns below. "

Decheng City is not that big, but it has a permanent population of over one million. Currently, there is only one "Ruida Home" run by Qiao Jingkang in the entire Decheng City. With so many people and such a large area, just one offline store obviously cannot cover everyone. When Reda Technology launches popular products, such as the second generation of Reda and Xiaoda mobile phones, there will be queues to buy them. This seems lively, but it affects the shopping experience and wastes too much time of customers. Opening several branches has become a matter of course.

"I'm not a black-hearted capitalist, and I won't treat my employees badly. They get commissions for selling mobile phones. After this busy month, everyone's salary is at least 10,000 yuan. As for opening a branch, I also I have thought about it, but it is difficult to find a store in a good location, and management talents are even harder to find. I can’t rush, so I can only take my time.” Qiao Jingkang’s mind is still very clear, and he did not blindly expand after seeing that the store’s business is good. Instead, he began to cultivate talents, identify stores, and slowly map them out.

"Well, it's best to buy a new store. I estimate that house prices will skyrocket in the next few years. If you just rent a store for use, the rising rent will become the biggest obstacle to the store's operation. If you don't have enough money to buy a store, you can Tell me, anything less than 100 million is nothing."

This year has just been 12 years, and in the next few years, housing prices will continue to surge. Properties in first-tier cities can easily increase more than ten times. Even in third-tier cities like Decheng City, housing prices are only more than twice that of Zhang Fu. As housing prices skyrocket, shop prices will also rise, and rents will naturally rise. In the end, excessively high housing prices will push back the real industry and make most stores unable to operate. As a reborn person with ideals and ambitions, Qiao Ruida disdains making a fortune from real estate speculation, let alone getting involved in the shady real estate industry. However, he didn't want his father to suffer from the skyrocketing housing prices, so buying a few shops in advance was the best option.

"Since the repair shop was changed to Ruida Home, the business has been getting better and better day by day. In the past year, I also made a small profit of more than two million, which is more than enough to buy two shops. Xiaoda, you said this house price is really Will the price continue to rise? Is the news reliable? The current housing price is high enough. If it continues to rise, who can afford it? Take Decheng City as an example. It is a small third-tier city. The housing price in the core area is astonishing. It has risen to more than 10,000 yuan. The working-class people can’t even afford a toilet with the money they have worked hard for a year. If housing prices continue to rise, then ordinary people will not be able to afford a house in their lifetime.”

As the old saying goes, "to start a family and a career," you must first start a family and then a career. It can be seen that in the Chinese people's concept, "family" is more important than career. When it comes to physical objects, furniture is like a house, a person, and a family. Only by having a house of your own can you truly settle down. In order to allow their daughters to live a stable life after getting married, many mothers-in-law’s first condition for choosing a son-in-law is to have a house in the city. This alone has broken up so many couples, and caused so many aspiring young people to take out the wallets of their parents and even their grandparents, take on huge mortgage loans, and buy a house, just to be able to pass the test of being a mother-in-law. As for how the young couple will scrimp on food and clothing after getting married, working from dawn to dusk to make money and pay off the mortgage, only God knows.

"Today's real estate has developed into a deformed monster with the help of the government, countless real estate developers, and many real estate speculators. The development of real estate to this day has been bound to the government, banks, and Real estate developers, big and small, are bound to hundreds of millions of home buyers. All parties involved require that housing prices can only rise and not fall. Unless a black swan incident occurs, housing prices will continue to rise until ordinary people can no longer afford a house. ”

Qiao Ruida couldn't help but think of her past life experience. Housing prices have been rising, and various purchase restriction and price-limiting control policies have had no effect at all. On the contrary, the more control they have, the more they rise. As a programmer, Qiao Ruida is considered a high-income earner, but she still cannot afford a house, so she has been living alone in a rented house. It was not until the black swan event broke out in 2019 that an epidemic swept the world, completely interrupting the upward trend in housing prices. At that time, housing prices in first-tier cities had skyrocketed, and houses costing hundreds of thousands per square meter abounded. Even the house prices in the small city of Decheng have risen to square meters, which makes people despair just thinking about it.

After his rebirth, Qiao Ruida had a system, got the top score in the college entrance examination, was admitted to a prestigious school, had his own career, and became the richest man in the country. It can be said that he has wealth, status, and influence, but he is still powerless against the skyrocketing housing prices. All he can do is not to participate in real estate speculation, not to engage in real estate, and not to make the dirty money.

"Forget it, don't talk about these unhappy things, drink, drink." This topic was too heavy, and Qiao Jingkang didn't want to continue talking, so he picked up the wine and clinked a glass with his son. The 70-degree Wuliangye was spicy in the mouth and full of stamina. Qiao Ruida drank less than half a kilo with her father before she felt a little confused. (End of chapter)
