Tan Yue hadn't come back yet, so Tian Shao called and no one answered. In winter, Tan Yue was picked up by Wuhan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. when he went to work. When the weather warmed up, he would ride a bicycle to work.
Tian Shao put down the phone and said to several people: "Tan Yue should be on his way back, let's wait for him!"
Sankui had just eaten two pieces of red date cake and was not hungry at all. He sat down and told Tian Shao something: "Cousin, before I came back, Director Zhuang told me that someone recently came to inquire about the flame beads."
Zhuang Yipeng often dealt with people from the government, and these people were the most well-informed. After hearing the descriptions of those people, and the fact that Sankui had borrowed 10,000 yuan from the factory to buy beads, he immediately knew that the flame beads were in Tian Shao's hands.
Inside.
Mr. Hu had seen the manuscript drawn by Tian Shao that day, and was educated by Mr. Mu on it, and he knew that the so-called flame beads were actually dragon beads.
Hearing this, Mr. Hu said with a straight face: "Li Sankui, you are twenty-four years old this year, not twenty-four months. Do you need me and Xiao Shao to teach you what to say and where to say it?"
He heard from Lao Mu that this flame bead is very valuable. In fact, many cultural relics are also priceless. But the problem is that the flame bead is said to bring good luck to people, and people at the beach are very superstitious. He must not believe this kind of thing.
Yes.
Sankui also thought that everyone in the yard was a family member. After being scolded by Mr. Hu, he thought of Sister Li in the kitchen. He patted his head: "Grandpa Hu, you are right to scold me. I will definitely pay attention to it in the future."
.”
Mr. Hu scolded: "If there is another time, don't go back to Yangcheng. Just stay in Sijiu City and continue to collect rags! You won't cause trouble for your cousin, and she will have to wipe your ass in the end."
Sankui didn't dare to say anything.
In order to relieve Sankui's embarrassment, Tian Shao asked with a smile: "Who is here to inquire?"
Sankui glanced at Mr. Hu, and when he saw that he didn't scold him anymore, he said in a low voice: "It is said that he is a Taiwanese businessman. He is very generous and is willing to pay 50,000 yuan to buy flame beads. Cousin, are these beads really that expensive?
"
Tian Shao hummed and said: "This thing is very rare. Rare things are valuable, and there are rumors that it brings good luck to people, so the price will naturally be higher."
Sankui said happily: "Then we will make a lot of money."
When he bought the bead, he was worried and prepared to be scolded. However, he didn't expect that Tian Shao didn't scold him and was only worried about buying a fake.
Tian Shao smiled and said: "I don't plan to sell it. If I don't convert it into money, it won't be a profit."
Sankui had never thought that Tian Shao would sell it, and he didn't have enough money to sell such a rare thing: "This is a bead that can bring good luck to people, so I definitely won't sell it!"
Let alone 50,000 yuan, even 500,000 yuan will not be sold. This is something that can bring good luck to people, and this good luck is much more important than money. He was also very lucky that day, and he saved his life.
While he was talking, the phone rang in the room, and Sankui rushed in like an arrow.
Mr. Hu was confused and asked, "What is he doing?"
Sanya said with a smile: "Aunt Fang just promised to call us back as soon as there is a reply from the Tao family. From the time he came back to now, he has been restless just waiting for this call."
"Maybe it's not the other party calling?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sankui walked out of the room, unable to hide the smile on his face: "Cousin, Aunt Fang just said that Miss Tao gave an answer and said we would meet at the gate of Jingshan Park at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
Sanya is a little strange, why is it Jingshan Park again.
Tian Shao knew her doubts and explained with a smile: "There is a bus from Tao Shuhui School gate to Jingshan Park. It is very convenient to come from school or go back to school after meeting."
Sanya really didn't think so much.
Sankui asked nervously: "Cousin, what do you think I should wear tomorrow?"
When he came back, he went to the barber shop to get his hair trimmed. The barber said that he looked very energetic now. He was just a little anxious because he came in a hurry and didn't bring any clothes.
Tian Shao hadn't seen him look like this for a long time, and thought it was quite rare: "The appointment is for tomorrow afternoon. I will take you to Xiushui Street to buy some clothes tomorrow morning."
Sankui looked at the cloth shoes on his feet and said hurriedly: "I need to buy some shoes too."
Tian Shao smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will buy it from head to toe, as long as you are not afraid of spending money."
Sankui said happily: "I have saved all the money from last year's bonus plus these few months' wages and subsidies. I originally planned to repair the house, but now I have to wait until later."
"How much?"
"One thousand and five."
Tian Shao calculated it and said: "Six hundred yuan plus the betrothal gift is enough, and the remaining money should be about the same for repairing the house. If it is not enough, I will give it to you in advance and return it to me at the end of the year."
Sankui refused: "Cousin, you gave me a thousand and eighty dollars to buy a house, how can I give up the money?"
Tian Shao said with a smile: "You and Miss Tao are not young anymore. We have found each other. Now we are engaged, and we will get married by the end of the year at the latest. If you don't ask someone to repair the house now, where are you going to get married? In my opinion
Here? I would, but my uncle and aunt would not agree."
This reason was so strong that Sankui could not refuse.
The next day, Tian Shao took Sankui to buy clothes, and the clothes were purchased from top to bottom. Because Tian Shao knew how to bargain, two sets of clothes only cost more than ninety yuan.
After buying the things, Sankui said only four words to Tian Shao and was convinced.
After lunch, Sankui was about to go to Jingshan Park. Tian Shao looked at his watch and said with a smile: "It's only 12:50 now. It only takes 15 minutes to drive there. Why are you in a hurry?"
"If you are really so free, go chop that pile of firewood."
Sankui shook his head and said: "Cousin, chopping firewood makes you sweat easily. I have to wash my hair, bathe and change clothes after chopping firewood. It's too time-consuming. You'd better wait until I come back to do it!"
Tian Shao:......
Sanya pursed her lips and smiled: "Cousin, please go in and watch TV!"
This time Sankui agreed readily, nodded in agreement and entered the house.
Tian Shao looked at his background and couldn't laugh or cry. He just went on a blind date. Why was he so nervous?
At half past one, Sankui went to Jingshan Park with a feeling of uneasiness. Seeing no one at the gate, he went directly to the bus stop to wait. Because he had seen Tao Shuhui's photo, he saw the girl as soon as she got off the bus.
Sankui walked up to the man and asked awkwardly: "Hello, Comrade Tao, I am Li Sankui."
When he went to work in the county town, Uncle Li asked if he wanted to change his name. He was used to the name and didn't want to change it. Now he regretted it. He took it from a girl's name because his name was too vulgar.
Tao Shuhui was a little surprised. She didn't expect him to wait at the bus stop, but from this action it could be seen that he attached great importance to this meeting.
