Chapter 221. Listen to wife
After the transaction was completed, Lin Qing He put away the gold bracelet and left.
Then she began to think about it. These yellow and white things can be shown. Even though they were still very valuable, who dared to take them out?
Lin Qing He kind of wanted to do a gold collecting business.
After the price goes up, wouldn’t it be wonderful to make a fortune?
So Lin Qing He came to the black market with a piece of cloth on her face. After saying the secret code, she came in to ask about gold.
"Although no one dares to take it out now, it's still not cheap," the young man said.
Despite the fact that Lin Qing He had covered herself with a piece of cloth and smeared her forehead, he still knew that this was a regular customer and could be traded with.
Lin Qing He said: "How's it calculated?"
"I have two chains here. If you want, I can give it to you." The young man said. He went in, took two gold chains from someone, and came out.
"How much?" Lin Qing He took a look and said.
"This one is 100g. This one is 150g. I'll give it to you for two hundred yuans." The young man looked at her and said.
"You might as well go out and rob." Lin Qing He rolled her eyes.
"This is gold. Since you want it, I believe you know that it will be valuable again in the future," responded the young man.
"Fifty yuans. I will accept it if you are happy. If not, forget it." Lin Qing He said outright.
"Fine. Fifty yuans it is." The young man said immediately.
Lin Qing He felt that she still didn't understand the current market. It was probably overcharged!
"I said, Sister, don't act like you are being deceived. Fifty yuans is because you are a frequent customer here. If not, you think I'll sell it to you?" The young man said in displeasure.
Only then Lin Qing He didn't say anything. She took the gold chains and whispered, "Is there any more?"
"Sister, if you want it, then we'll naturally have it. However, it can be very risky to sell these things. If you want it, it won't be cheap next time." The young man stated.
"Collect some for me. I'll come and check it out next time." Lin Qing He said.
"Alright, but I won't collect too much. If you want, let's continue trading next time." The young man replied.
After Lin Qing He left, the young man went inside the room. There was a middle-aged man with a beer belly. It was really rare to be able to have this in this era.
"Eldest Uncle, this woman said she still wants more. Should we collect more?" The young man asked.
"This is interesting. There are still people willing to collect these at this time. Did she catch wind of something?" said the middle-aged man with a beer belly.
"During this situation, what good wind can there be," responded the young man.
When the red soldiers from outside previously came over, the black market had been closed for a while. Not a shadow was seen and the business was bleak for a while.
"Don't underestimate these people." The middle-aged man said. Then he continued, "Go and get her some. Next time she's here and asks her. You can give her some reward."
"Okay." The young man agreed.
Lin Qing He searched a small alley and took out a wet towel from the space to scrub herself clean before coming out.
She was in a good mood. As far as she was concerned, she had accumulated a lot of gold in her space. She would be able to sell it in the future.
But for now, these things still have to be overstocked and saved for future use.
Lin Qing He went to buy some things before returning home.
When she came back, she saw Zhou Qing Bai was at home. He didn't go to work today and went to buy pesticides. He returned early.
"You got back so soon." Lin Qing He smiled.
"Went to the city?" Zhou Qing Bai asked.
"Yes, made a trip over." Lin Qing He nodded. She didn't tell him that she was planning to start collecting gold. He just had to follow her and enjoy the best of life in the future.
So it must be said that sometimes it's a blessing to be able to marry a very smart and capable wife who devoted herself to him.
Obviously, Zhou Qing Bai had such a blessing.
"What do you want to eat tonight?" Lin Qing He asked.
"Liangpi?" Zhou Qing Bai turned to her. He liked this very much.
"Okay." Lin Qing He merrily agreed. It was just Liangpi. No big deal.
Zhou Qing Bai had nothing to do, so he came in to help her. The couple happily worked away in the kitchen.
In fact, there was no technical skill. Just took a bit of time and energy. After Zhou Qing Bai became familiar with it, she let him handle it. Lin Qing He went to the backyard to pick two tomatoes to eat. One for her and one for Zhou Qing Bai.
The kids weren't home. Little Su Cheng and little Su Xun were with their granny, playing at the old Zhou's house. Therefore there was no one to disturb them. They felt quite at home.
Zhou Qing Bai munched on the tomato and made Liangpi. Lin Qing He brought up: "Our family will move in the future. When we settle down, we will bring Father and Mother over."
Really, it was difficult for a woman like Lin Qing He to take the initiative to propose such an idea. Even though it wasn't difficult to get along with Father Zhou and Mother Zhou, the key factor was her husband made her willing to.
Zhou Qing Bai also didn't expect her to say this. He froze still for a second before saying, "It's still early."
Lin Qing He smiled and said, "It's just that when Father and Mother will move out with us. At that time, the expenditure will be big. So Qing Bai, when our country reforms and open up, will you go and set up a stall?"
"Will it be hard to make a profit?" Zhou Qing Bai said seriously.
"Aren't you afraid of losing face?" Lin Qing He grinned when seeing his focus here.
"As long as the country allows it, we won't lose face." Zhou Qing Bai looked at her and answered.
This was this man's bottom line. As long as the country allowed it, he won't have any psychological burden. As for what Lin Qing He was doing now, he didn't agree. It's just he can't do anything about his wife.
That night, when he wanted to eat meat, he was defeated by his wife's move. Then there was no room for objection.
Lin Qing He smiled, and then said: "In the future, it will be very profitable to set up a street stall."
In the early days of reform and opening up, the trend of that era was to set up street stalls. What was the trend after street stalls were set up? It was self-employed.
After the self-employed, there was the sea channel, and then the boom in stocks and real estate.
In the initial stage of a trend, it was very easy to make money. So setting a street stall first won't end badly. Then they will consider opening a shop when they have enough capital.
After all, she probably will settle down after graduation at that time. So she can consider these things.
Zhou Qing Bai nodded. His wife couldn't be wrong. What she says, he'll just implement it.
Lin Qing He looked at her man with a twinkle in her eyes.
Zhou Qing Bai added a handful of firewood and saw his wife's alluring eyes. The two ended up kissing in the kitchen.
Mother Zhou brought in little Su Xun, The door wasn't closed, so she witnessed it. She immediately retreated with her little grandson.
Really...in the broad daytime, they actually hugged together in the kitchen and were mouth-to-mouth.

Thanks for the chapter! Once again welcome back!
ReplyDeleteagree. It's just he can't doing anything with his wife. -> can't do anything about his wife
After all, she probably will be settled down -> will be settling down/ will settle down
Thanks Dorai_O! Changed now!
DeleteThank You for the Chapter!~
ReplyDeleteLmao they got caught
Ou these two love birds
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chapter!! I love reading this
A hug ? In broad daylight ? The fucking indecency of this animals, what's next ? Raw hand holding ?
ReplyDeleteCrazy place, China.
I'm glad she's keeping up buying gold, I'm glad she sent ML opinion about stopping to the moon with the rest of the fucks she should give.
Taking care of the old eh ? Well whatever I guess, not wanting to stay with the kids but doing that ? Sure, sure.
I do find it funny she wants to go away with the dude and says she won't care about the children, when they're older and the dude stops performing, and there's no viagra, she'll be hoping for them to visit like all the elderly that love big families tending to them.
God this is why i can never get used to series with female leads, most of the time the ML is useless or creepy as fuck , I just can't get over how it's the female that's doing all the work and will be the one to get the money and everything and the guy isn't even particularly likable always being quiet like a block of wood, sure he doesn't say anything but he doesn't really even have a right too anyways he's been completely carried by her, it's embarrassing.
Sigh, welp ladies need to deal with reading about women being mindless sex bots most of the time so I guess ill stomach this.

DeleteDon't you think you are exaggerating? Your comments are irrational, looking for problems and making them bigger. It's only a novel
DeleteDon't force yourself to stomach this da Boss. You've been stomaching it for 170 chapters already anymore and I'm afraid you'll get indigestion and food poisoning, so why don't you just stop and shit it out elsewhere hmm
Delete.........(speechless) I personally enjoy the story. I don't think to deeply like that it's amusing and the fl is not too op that it gets annoying, and predictable. Unlike one of the other commenters I personally like all of fl's children. Sorry for any bad grammar in this comment. Thank you for the translation.
ReplyDeleteIt's so easy to see which commentator is a loser who doesn't have a life. No, really. How telling is it when people recognise you as the one being bitter about fictional characters chapter after chapter lol
ReplyDeletethe way they talk about chinese people and china in general make me uncomfy. like it feels racist or at least toeing the line of racism. i wouldn't be surpr8sed tbh with how casual they are with the R slur.
