Chapter five hundred and fifty second contacts(1/2)
After arriving at the house, Fangyuan put down the things in his hands.
Lao Cao's wife made a pot of tea and brought it over and said to Yuan Yuan, "Come and drink tea."
"Yeah! Thank you!"
Looking at the car keys on the Eight Immortals' table, Lao Cao glanced at Fangyuan and said, "Fangyuan, what's going on?"
"It's like this. I see you ride a bicycle every day. It's okay if it's at other times, but it's too dangerous this winter. So last time I went to the Friendship Store, I happened to see a Lada for sale, so I gave it to you.
Bought it.”
"Fang Yuan, you mean you bought this car from Youyi Store?" Lao Cao looked at Fan Yuan in surprise and asked.
"Yes! What's wrong?"
Lao Cao shook his head and said, "It's not like I've never been to Fangyuan and Youyi Store, and I've seen the cars sold there, but..."
Before Lao Cao finished speaking, Fangyuan interrupted him and said, "That's what you're talking about! That's right! The cars sold there are all shabby, but who said they can't be refurbished."
"Uh!" Lao Cao was stunned for a moment, looked at Fangyuan and said, "Refurbished! You mean this car has been refurbished?"
"That's right! Not only this Lada, but also my Jeep and that Lincoln have all been refurbished. Otherwise, I would have gone somewhere to get a car."
"This..." Lao Cao stopped talking, because he knew that Fangyuan was right.
"Okay, I already have two cars. I don't need this one, so I'll give it to you. This way, it will be convenient for you to get in and out."
Hearing what Fangyuan said, Lao Cao thought for a moment and nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll accept it."
Lao Cao didn't say anything about giving money to Fangyuan. That would be too vulgar. Even if he wanted to give it, Fangyuan wouldn't take it!
To be honest, most of the credit for the fact that there are so many houses in Fangyuan belongs to Lao Cao. If you want to calculate it this way, a car is nothing!
Even if it's just the errand fees, one car can't cover it. What's more, there's more than just the errand fees, there are many things that Lao Cao himself negotiated.
Lao Cao Mai said that Fangyuan would not even mention money. He originally gave it to Lao Cao, so how could he mention this.
"By the way, how have you harvested during this period?" Fangyuan asked.
Of course Lao Cao knew what Fangyuan was asking. He shook his head and said, "I didn't go out at all during this period."
"Uh! Didn't you go out?" Fang Yuan looked at Lao Cao and asked.
"That's right! It's snowing so heavily. Why should I go out? As long as I have money, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy a house! We'll talk about it after the New Year and the beginning of spring."
"You are really big-hearted." Fang Yuan shook her head and said.
Sometimes money is not everything, otherwise why would Fangyuan open an agency.
Today, unlike later generations, communications are not as developed, and there are platforms. Now there are not all kinds of messy websites for renting and selling houses.
There is no national website like 58. If you want to know who wants to buy a house and who wants to sell a house, you can only know the people around you.
Of course, it's okay if you have strong connections. Unfortunately, many people nowadays don't even leave home except for work, so strong connections are needed.
Even people like Lao Cao who don't work may still have some connections, but they are definitely not powerful.
"It doesn't matter if I'm not arrogant. I'm getting old, and now I plan to save some money for my children."
"Uh!" Fangyuan was stunned for a moment, then realized that Lao Cao was already in his sixties.
It is impossible to save a fortune for my son. I think I am saving a fortune for my grandson. To be honest, the reason why Fang Yuan is so great is because Lao Cao’s sons are not very good.
Fangyuan has known Lao Cao for so many years, but whenever he comes here, he has never seen his son, not even his daughter-in-law.
Even during the Chinese New Year, Lao Cao and his wife did not see his son and daughter-in-law coming.
"Old Cao, you can't think about it! At this age, why do you care what they do? If I were you, I should eat and drink."
In fact, Lao Cao thought the same way before, but as he grew older, he paid more and more attention to family ties.
A few sons are fine, but what about the grandson! The son’s fault cannot be extended to the grandson.
"Just think of me as a bitch!" Lao Cao said.
Hearing what Lao Cao said, what else could Fangyuan say? He shook his head and asked, "What happened back then? Is there any problem with you in this?"
"Alas! If I said there was no problem with me, I probably wouldn't believe it myself. Forget it, let's forget about it."
Lao Cao didn't want to talk about it, and he probably didn't want to mention it either! But no matter what, even if it was all Lao Cao's fault, his sons shouldn't be like this.
Besides, based on Fangyuan's understanding of Lao Cao, Lao Cao is not an unreasonable person. This can be seen from the fact that his lover has been standing by his side from beginning to end.
If it was really Lao Cao's problem, then his wife would probably side with the children.
It sounds a bit incomprehensible to say that there are no bad parents in the world, but it is true.
The love that parents have for their children is definitely the most selfless and the most unreasonable in the world.
Fangyuan didn't ask any more questions, and after chatting with Lao Cao for a while, Fangyuan stood up and wanted to leave.
"I'll give it to you." Lao Cao said as he picked up the car keys on the Eight Immortals' table.
"Um!"
After arriving at the gate, Fangyuan glanced at Lao Cao and asked, "Is that okay?"
"should be no problem."
"Okay, let's go." After speaking, Fangyuan opened the passenger door and sat directly on it.
He was not worried about anything happening. Although there was snow on the road and it was slippery, there were no cars on the road! So there was no traffic accident.
After Lao Cao got in the car, he started the car first and then began to study the gears. This is really important.
In just two or three minutes, Lao Cao started to shift into gear and the vehicle drove out smoothly.
"Okay, Lao Cao, I haven't been here for so many years, I see you are no stranger to this at all!" Fang Yuan turned around and said.
Lao Cao stared forward and said, "Stop talking, I'm very nervous now."
"Well!"
Fangyuan glanced at Lao Cao, and indeed, he felt that Lao Cao seemed to be nervous, but fortunately he did not panic.
This is normal. I haven’t touched a car in so many years. It’s like this when I first touch a car. It’ll be fine once I get used to it.
It was basically what Fangyuan thought. By the time Lao Cao drove the car to the door of Fangyuan's house, he was basically no longer nervous.
It's just that the journey, which was originally more than 20 minutes, took Lao Cao almost 50 minutes to drive. I guess it should be faster to go back.
"Old Cao, come down and have some tea before going back!"
"No, let's do it another day! It just so happens that it doesn't snow today, so I can practice driving."
"That's fine, then I won't keep you."
"Well! You go in!"
"good."
Fangyuan got out of the car, closed the door, and waved to Lao Cao.
After Lao Cao drove away, Fangyuan turned around and returned to the house. As soon as he entered the front yard, he saw smoke coming from the kitchen.
Fangyuan knew that the eldest sister and third sister were probably cooking, so Fangyuan walked over.
Before Fangyuan could go in, he saw the eldest sister coming out carrying a basin.
"Little brother is back?" the eldest sister asked as she poured out the water in the basin.
"Um!"
"Wait a minute, the food will be ready soon."
Fangyuan glanced at his watch. It was just past four o'clock and said, "Don't worry, I'll go back to the house first."
"Well! Go ahead!"
At home, my mother didn't let Fangyuan enter the kitchen, and the same thing happened when she came out. Whether it was the eldest sister or the third sister, she also didn't let him enter the kitchen.
To be honest, I am very dissatisfied with this Fang Yuan. Why can't men enter the kitchen? It's not like ancient times, where gentlemen stay away from the kitchen.
In this age, some of the chefs in the hotel were not men, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Unless his mother and several sisters were away, it would be impossible for him to enter the kitchen. He would probably be pushed out before he could enter.
By the time we finished eating, it was already after six o'clock in the evening. It was already after six o'clock in the winter and it was already dark.
"Eldest and Third Sister, don't clean up now. Let's clean it up tomorrow!" Fang Yuan said as he watched the Eldest and Third Sister clear away the dishes.
"Don't worry about it, go in and rest!" the eldest sister said.
"Oh!" Fangyuan had no choice but to go back to the house first.
Early the next morning, Fangyuan got up to box. Because the days were short and the nights were long, it was still dark when he got up.
Fangyuan didn't stop until he broke out in a sweat, and then went to take a shower. At this time, the eldest sister and the third sister had not gotten up yet.
Fangyuan drove away. After delivering the meat and ingredients, Fangyuan went home. Of course, on the way to deliver the ingredients, Fangyuan had already finished breakfast.
When Fangyuan returned home, the eldest sister and the third sister had also finished eating.
"Brother, why did you go out so early! You didn't even eat breakfast." The third sister said when she saw Fangyuan coming back.
