Yanagi bought rice, cooked convenience foods and vegetables at a small supermarket near the apartment building.
Wen Hanmei just heated up her unfinished breakfast in the microwave for lunch. Liu Gen came back late again. It was almost eight o'clock. Her stomach was pounding with hunger. When Liu Gen came back with food, she didn't bother to cook rice.
Open the cooked food first and place it on the bottom first.
"Sister Hanmei, I've cooked the rice, remember to eat it later." Liu Gen came out of the kitchen, preparing to pack up and move to Mei Yingchun's house.
"Have you eaten yet?" Wen Hanmei asked, chewing food in her mouth.
"I'll go back to the store to eat." Liu Gen walked into the workshop.
Wen Hanmei followed him in, saw him packing his things, and asked strangely: "What are you doing?"
"I will move to the school." Liu Gen did not say where exactly he would move.
When Wen Hanmei heard this, she rushed forward, snatched the clothes from Liu Gen's hand, and threw them on the bed: "You can't move them away!"
Liu Gen said with a silly smile: "I will come here often. If you need to buy anything, Sister Hanmei calls me."
"No, you can't just leave like this." Wen Hanmei said: "Who will protect me if you leave? If someone comes here with a machete, how can I deal with it as a woman? You have to stay and protect me!"
"No one knows this place, and no one will come looking for it." Liu Gen said with a smile.
"Liu Gen, do you think it's inconvenient for me to live here, so you want to avoid me?" Wen Hanmei asked with her eyebrows raised and her eyes widened.
"Haha... No, I just want to make Sister Hanmei's stay more comfortable."
"If you want me to live comfortably, you have to stay, otherwise, I'll move out!" Wen Hanmei rolled her eyes at Liu Gen: "You think I'm in the way now, right? You think I'm going to be unlucky, and you're afraid of being implicated, right? Then
Okay, I'll go..." He said and turned to leave.
"Don't..." Liu Gen pulled out Wen Hanmei's arm: "Sister Hanmei, I won't move away, okay?"
"This is the Liu Gen I know." A smile appeared on Wen Hanmei's face: "Don't worry, we are brother and sister, and I won't let you do anything you don't want to do."
"Haha..." Liu Gen understood what Wen Hanmei meant and scratched the back of his head in embarrassment: "I'm going to cook for Sister Hanmei."
"No, I will cook it for you. You are lucky to be able to eat the food I cook. Don't forget that I am the owner of a restaurant. I have learned a few tricks from the chef." Wen Hanmei pushed Liu Gen to the
At the computer desk: "You read and I cook. I'll call you when I'm ready."
Liu Gen blushed and smiled stupidly. He suddenly remembered the situation when he was detoxifying at Mei Yingchun's house. At that time, he often helped Mei Yingchun.
"Sister Hanmei, I have something to do tonight, you can eat by yourself." Liu Gen thought of having a meeting with Chen Hao and the others in the evening, and he couldn't sit still: "I will be back early."
"It's so boring to eat alone!" Wen Hanmei said coquettishly, but she didn't stop Liu Gen and didn't ask anything.
"Otherwise, I won't eat in the store and we will eat together when we come back. But you have to be hungry." Liu Gen said before going out.
"Okay, when you come back, give me a call first and then start cooking." Wen Hanmei smiled softly.
"Okay." Liu Gen readily agreed.
Chen Hao and Xiangzi had been waiting at Mei Yingchun's house for a long time. As soon as Liu Gen arrived, the three of them started talking about how to raise enough working capital.
Liu Gen first asked Chen Hao and Xiangzi to talk about their ideas.
Chen Hao's opinion was still the same as what he told Liu Gen in the morning, to ask Li Jiahe to temporarily borrow 300,000 yuan for emergency purposes.
But Xiangzi said optimistically: "I've thought about it these days." He took off the watch from his wrist and put it on the coffee table: "It's worth at least 50,000. Let's pawn it first and wait until we make money."
, and then redeem it.”
"No!" Liu Gen immediately objected: "This watch is a thought left by Uncle Kui for you, it can't be used as a gift! Besides, it's only 50,000 yuan, which is of no use, and people won't give you that much money."
"Brother Gen, don't say it's a bad watch, even if someone gives me 300,000 yuan and asks me to kill people, I will consider it." Xiangzi said seriously: "Currently, food is at a very critical moment.
, as long as we get through this difficulty, the future road will be smooth. As for the part that is not enough, haha... I have a way to get it, but I need to go back to Qiong County to mortgage my home's foundation and property to the bank.
The loan, a few acres of land, is worth at least 200,000 yuan. I asked Slug to ask for it for me, and the bank said it was absolutely fine, and Slug’s father agreed to guarantee it for me.”
When Liu Gen heard this, he felt that this was indeed a solution, but he was a little worried: "Xiangzi, your family is already... like that. Can the bank lend so much money?"
"The house is not worth much, but the land is there. Even if it is a general land, a few acres in the suburbs, it is still worth 200,000. What's more, my homestead is in the best area in the county.
I also hope to loan out five hundred thousand." Xiangzi said with a smile.
"Brother Gen, what Xiangzi said is a true method. As long as you can get the money, it doesn't matter how much it is. Let's deal with this big business first." Chen Hao thinks this method is feasible.
Xiangzi continued: "There is another way. Even if the loan fails, I can still collect enough money."
"What can I do?" Liu Gen asked hurriedly.
"Borrowing it from Xu Yazhi's father." Xiangzi replied with a smile.
Liu Gen was stunned, how could Xiangzi think of borrowing money from Xu Yazhi's father: "You didn't know Xu Yazhi's father before." Liu Gen didn't believe that Xiangzi could borrow money from Xu Yazhi's father, why should he lend it to him?
.
"Haha... I talked with Yazhi. She called her father and told her about you and me. Her father said that it is not easy for us Qiong County people to make a career in the South China Sea. He also said if necessary,
He will lend us money."
Liu Gen was speechless. From the excitement in Xiangzi's words, it was not difficult to guess that Xu Yazhi and Xiangzi probably talked on the phone often. However, Xu Yazhi had only called him once since the start of school, and her tone was no longer as enthusiastic as before.
, Liu Gen didn't take it seriously at the time, but now he knew that Xiangzi could borrow money from Xu Yazhi's family. This didn't mean that Xu Yazhi might often mention Xiangzi's kindness in front of her family members.
Logically speaking, this is a good thing. Liu Gen had long hoped that Xu Yazhi could get along with Xiangzi, but for some reason, Liu Gen felt a little awkward in his heart. If this hadn't happened like the winter vacation sleeper car and the all-night movie theater, Liu Gen might not have done it.
Any ideas, the problem is, after experiencing those two things, things are different.
"Brother Gen, just do as Xiangzi said." Seeing Liu Gen's delay in expressing his position, Chen Hao agreed first.
"Oh...Okay, that's it. Xiangzi, please go back as soon as possible to finalize the funding issue." Liu Gen said with a smile.
"Okay." Xiangzi agreed happily: "I'll go buy a train ticket later and see if I can buy one for tomorrow."
"No, if we go back by plane, the store will be without you for a long time. The train goes back and forth, and it takes four or five days. If we go by plane, you have already done everything in these four or five days." Liu Gen said.
"But currently we don't have any extra money to spend on business trips..." Chen Hao reminded Liu Gen in a low voice.
"I don't need to be reimbursed by the company. I pay for it myself." Xiangzi immediately said, "I've never flown on an airplane. I don't know what it's like to fly in the sky."
"Remember the account first. You are on a business trip. How can you pay for it yourself and reimburse it later?" Liu Gen took this opportunity and said to Chen Hao: "Mr. Chen, we should make a rule for reimbursing expenses for business trips. From now on, we will often reimburse you for business trips."
There will be things like this, and since we are a company, we have to regulate everything."
"Okay, I will draft it as soon as possible and discuss it with the board of directors next time." Chen Hao nodded and said.
"Xiangzi, if the bank in Qiong County can lend us enough funds, don't pawn the watch."
"Haha... I think so too." Xiangzi said with a smile, "But after I leave, I have to deliver meals and buy groceries to the office building every day, so I have to find someone who can drive."
"Does anyone in our company know how to drive?" Liu Gen asked.
"No." Chen Hao shook his head and replied.
"That's a problem." Liu Gen thought for a while and suddenly thought of someone: "Yes, Ouyang Xue can drive. She and I will deliver food and buy groceries. Anyway, the school team hasn't been training recently."
"Ouyang Xue can drive? Does she have a driver's license?" Xiangzi asked doubtfully: "Brother Gen, how did you know?"
"Haha...she told me that." Liu Gen simply replied: "She took the driver's license test when she was a sophomore in high school."
"But ours is a van, can she handle it?" Xiangzi said worriedly.
"Why don't you buy a plane ticket and ask her to drive you to the airport and give her some guidance." Liu Gen also felt a little hesitant.
"That's okay. I didn't see her driving, so I'm really worried."
Liu Gen was thinking about going back to the apartment for dinner, and he was indeed hungry. What should be discussed was basically settled, so he told Xiangzi and Chen Hao to take the first step and call Wen Hanmei after leaving.
Wen Hanmei had already prepared the dishes she was going to cook. She was just waiting for Liu Gen's call. She sat in the living room and watched TV. After receiving Liu Gen's call, she immediately put on her apron and entered the kitchen.
At this moment, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. Liu Gen did not stop at the store and rode over.
But in a black car parked not far from the store entrance, the people inside saw Liu Gen riding by and immediately followed him.
This is the person who Li Gan arranged for Hu Laosi to follow Liu Gen. This person drove to Daxue Road before school and waited, but he never saw Liu Gen. He had seen Liu Gen's thugs and made trouble in the student apartment last time.
one of.
Liu Gen rode the car very fast. The black car behind him was not driving on the sidewalk like the last time the monks and the others followed them. Instead, it was driving slowly on the road normally. Following him from a distance, Liu Gen also looked back a few times.
He checked to see if anyone was following him, but he saw no suspicious vehicles or pedestrians.
Li Gan was very nervous that day. He stayed at home and thought about possible things several times. Whenever he thought of something that would attract the attention of the police, he would call and arrange for someone to deal with it.
I called some important officials to find out from their voices whether there was any action from above, but everything seemed to be calm, and no police were looking for him, and no police came to the company. At night, there was still nothing detrimental to him.
happened, which made Li Gan even more frightened. When he received the call from Hu Laosi, Li Gan had not eaten dinner.
"That little bastard Liu Gen went to the apartment building..." Li Gan heard the report from Hu Laosi's phone call and thought Liu Gen was looking for Su Miaoling: "Did he go to the 18th floor... the 20th floor... Are you sure he
It's the twentieth floor... What is this little bastard doing there..."
