Chapter 13: Is this what it feels like to be a father?
Liu Shiba blinked strangely and suddenly asked:
"Old man, you have said so much. Let me ask you, what kind of physiognomist are you?"
Cao Xiong was stunned when he heard this, hesitated for a while, slowly raised his head, and replied solemnly:
"Old man, I know a lot about luck, Feng Shui, merit, religion, and martial arts. I am a fifth-grade fortune teller, and your grandfather is a sixth-grade gold-touching captain!"
Liu Shiba was not surprised when he heard this. He smiled and stroked his messy chicken feather-like hair, made a look that he thought was more handsome, and asked softly:
"Do you think I'm pretty good? What grade am I, the Golden Colonel?"
When Cao Xiong heard this, his teeth were sore, his face twitched a few times, and he forced a smile and said:
"You? You barely learned some of your grandfather's skills, and maybe you also got some inheritance. You can be regarded as a first-class captain!"
"Only one grade? Old man, are you reading that right? Let me tell you, you are living and eating from me now. Do you believe that I will drive you out to the street?"
"You must learn to be virtuous. This is also a compulsory training for Captain Mojin. You must respect the elderly and love the young..."
"I love your sister..."
Liu Shiba started messing around with the old guy with a smile in his eyes.
"Well, the old man is wrong. In fact, you are not even a first-class product. I think the zero-class ones are about the same. The old man's sisters are already in the coffin. Don't talk nonsense..."
Cao Xiong covered his gray beard and wandered around the room...
………………
Liu Shiba didn't sleep well all night. He couldn't sleep well with 750,000 yuan in cash at home. To put it bluntly, Liu Shiba was just an ordinary citizen. How had he ever seen so much money?
At around eight o'clock the next morning, Liu Shiba got up early, took a shower, mysteriously picked up his schoolbag containing banknotes, and prepared to go out.
Unexpectedly, when I opened the door, I woke up the old man Cao Xiong, and even though he was begging for nothing, he wanted to go shopping with me.
While walking on the road, Cao Xiong asked doubtfully:
"What are you doing carrying that bag of money?"
Liu Shiba rolled his eyes and smiled mysteriously:
"I'm afraid of being poor. Money is not safe at home, so I got up early and deposited it in the bank."
A trace of disdain flashed in Cao Xiong's eyes. He looked Liu Shiba up and down with his eyes wide open, then he said with a sigh:
"Eighteen, have you really never seen money? How big a big deal is such a small amount of money?
The old man drinks a few more bowls of chicken soup and eats a few more chicken drumsticks, and then we go to the lottery shop and win millions without any problem."
After listening to the old man Cao Xiong's guidance, Liu Shiba suddenly understood, slapped his forehead fiercely, and laughed:
"Yes, with an old man like you by my side, am I afraid of running out of money? I have to eat bird's nests from bowl to bowl, and when buying clothes, I buy one set and throw another away!"
As soon as his eyes rolled, Liu Shiba was about to walk back. Cao Xiong became anxious when he saw it. He pulled Liu Shiba's sleeve and said doubtfully:
"Huh? Why are you going?"
"Aren't we short of money? I'll put the money back home."
Liu Shiba explained.
Hearing what Liu Shiba said, Cao Xiong rolled his eyes and immediately became dissatisfied and said angrily:
"Eighteen, my old man also has a share of this money, right? Why should I put it back? I want to go out to eat well and wear good clothes."
Liu Shiba glanced at Cao Xiong warily and advised softly:
"Money is hard-earned, we have to save some money."
"Well, you save some money here, old man, I will pack up and go back to Ziyun Mountain."
Cao Xiong waved his hand, turned around and left.
Back to Ziyun Mountain?
How can that work? This old guy is just a money-making machine, how can he let you go?
"No, old guy, wasn't I kidding just now? You tell me how to use this money, I'll listen to you."
Liu Shiba's face was twisted, and he gritted his teeth to coax the smelly old man.
"Listen to me? Okay, since you want to touch Colonel Jin, you must first learn to change your temperament. Of course, old man, I also need to change my temperament."
"Change your temperament? How?"
Liu Shiba was puzzled.
"As the saying goes, a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. Let's find a place to buy some good clothes first, so that our temperament will come naturally..."
Cao Xiong raised his head and explained slowly.
"Huh? Don't you just want to be well-fed and well-dressed? Old guy, just say no and it's over. What's wrong with temperament?"
Liu Shiba bulged his eyes.
"Young man, you don't want to be a miser. You listen to me. Only if you dress well can you have the possibility to rise to the top.
People nowadays are very realistic. They don't look at your ability, they only look at your face or clothes.
If he wears something worth three thousand yuan and you wear something worth $300,000, how do you think he feels?"
Cao Xiong asked with a smile.
When Liu Shiba heard this, his mind exploded, and he turned around and said grimly:
"He must feel that I am his father..."
"That's right, I just want this feeling of being a father!"
Cao Xiong laughed triumphantly, and the goatee on his chin twitched...
Although Liu Shiba usually doesn't pay attention to what he wears, it's different today. One of them is that he can't lose the face of this old guy like Cao Xiong, because he will have to rely on him to make money in the future.
Secondly, Liu Shiba wanted to treat Shangguan Ya to a meal tonight.
Women are sometimes very particular about vanity. The clothes and matching of the men around them show her taste.
So sometimes you can be casual and slovenly, but you must give her enough face in certain places, even if it means bankrupting everything...
But Liu Shiba really didn't know much about some famous brand-name high-end men's clothing, so he let Cao Xiong do it.
What also surprised Liu Shiba was that the old salesman and fortune teller who had been walking around Ziyun Mountain for a long time was actually very familiar with these luxury goods.
It happened that there was a well-known luxury men's clothing store in Xuchang City not far away, so Liu Shiba followed Cao Xiong and staggered in with his eyes closed.
While an extremely beautiful salesperson was dumbfounded, Cao Xiong changed Liu Shibali inside and out.
With Cao Xiong making the decision, Liu Shiba changed into a complete set of Burberry trench coat and trousers, his shoes were replaced by Lang Danze, and his belt was Gucci. He also got a Dunhill lighter and a Gucci wallet.
His underwear was also replaced by Impetus double-sided thermal underwear. Not only that, even the pair of socks from an unknown brand were horrifyingly expensive.
In the end, Liu Shiba took out his backpack in pain and watched helplessly as he took 480,000 in cash from it.
Cao Xiong, a prodigal old man, even thought about finding a jewelry store to buy Liu Shiba a big gold square ring and a platinum necklace as thick as a dog chain.
Then Cao Xiong also dressed himself in a very stylish outfit. At a quick glance, he thought he was a rich man from some family who was going to the countryside to experience life.
This time, 250,000 yuan is gone again, and there is only 20,000 yuan in the bag?
If he hadn't been short of money, Cao Xiong would have loved to buy two more Rolex Gypsophila.
Brother Nima, is it easy to get some money?
Just like that, we are back to before liberation?
However, luxury goods are luxury goods, and quality really has nothing to say.
Although Liu Shiba has no appreciation for some luxury goods, this does not hinder a person's taste.
Liu Shiba's mature temperament, which has been hidden for more than 20 years, is even more dazzling when set off by a brand of men's clothing.
