BTTS 683




Chapter 683. Old husband old wife


Lin Xiu won't graduate until this summer. She attended a junior college. Although she wasn't as good as the undergraduates like Zhou Yang and Zhou Wu Ni, she had a decent degree in this age.

After returning home from the provincial city during the holiday, she heard her mother talk about this matter. Told her to not accept the assigned employment after graduation. Just directly go to her aunt's in the capital.

Lin Xiu had been to the capital for a few times. It went without saying that she liked the capital city's side. Originally, she preparing for the assigned employment. Now she heard her aunt lacked people and had a place, then she didn’t need the school allocated job.

She planned to go to the capital after graduating. In the evening, she made a call over since she knew her aunt was at home.

Gang Zi happened to sit nearby and picked it up.

As soon as he heard that it was Lin Xiu, he called his maternal aunt. Lin Qing He came over to answer the phone and chatted with her maternal niece.

When she hung up the phone, Gang Zi asked, "Maternal Aunt, is Lin Xiu coming over?" He and Lin Xiu knew each other, even though they weren't very familiar with each other.

"En. When she graduates this year, she will come over here and be an specialized accountant for me." Lin Qing He told.

Gang Zi was puzzled: "Isn't there Elder Sister Er Ni and the others?"

"Accounting doesn't earn too much. And your sister Er Ni is busy. Your second brother-in-law owns a garment factory. Letting Lin Xiu come over means she can spare more time to accompany your second brother-in-law to go shopping. Last time, I heard your second brother-in-law complaining about it." Lin Qing He replied.

Gang Zi grinned. Zhou Qing Bai looked at his nephew and stated, "It's almost time to get married."

On this point, Zhou Qing Bai and Third Sister-in-law's wife's opinions were in line. Basically, aiming to not let the rich water flow to outsiders' fields. After Lin Xiu graduates, he intended to push his nephew to be capable.

Gang Zi couldn't comprehend his maternal uncle's intentions and shook his head: "I want to buy a house first!" He had a dedication to buying a house. He truly wanted to have his own little home.

Although it was comfortable to live on his maternal uncle and aunt's side, he can't live there for a lifetime. In the future, he will have to marry a wife. How can he drag his family to live in his maternal uncle's house?

There was no such reasoning.

"Buying a house is to marry a wife. If you meet a good one, you should get engaged first. Otherwise, what age will you be when you buy a house? Even if you have a house, the other party would disdain your high age." Zhou Qing Bai maintained.

When he was at his age, the first three boys were already born.

Gang Zi smiled: "Isn't it because I haven't encountered someone?"

"I'll find a good one for you. Don't casually date outside by yourself." Zhou Qing Bai stated.

Gang Zi nodded. It was absolutely no problem to leave his life-long matter to his maternal uncle and aunt. If they approve, then there was no unhappy life.

His eldest brother currently had a happy life. It would be impossible for him to say that he didn't have red eyes. It can't be helped. He wanted to buy a commercial house and the money was short by a long way.

Early the next morning, Gang Zi went out with a cart full of goods. Not only did he have fashionable and youthful clothes, but also various headbands. He bought a few buns outside to eat before starting to set up a stall.

Generally speaking, one-third of this cart's good can sell out in the early market. Then two-thirds of the were gone in the rest of the day. When he closed the stall at night, there was usually nothing left.

Since last year, the business had been really prosperous. Although he was setting up a stall right now, it was even better than opening a shop in term of business.

Lin Qing He didn't ask him whether he was making a profit now. Just by taking in his supply in and supply out every day, she knew without asking.

Being this motivated was a good thing. In the future, there was no need to set up stall even when one want to. The first one to disagree was the city management. One should take advantage of this current moment and quickly make a fortune to buy a house. That was a big profit.

Zhou Gui Lai went south with Ma Cheng Min. It took more than 20 days before they embarked on the return journey.

"When I and Uncle Cheng Min went over, we happened to encounter another group of tea merchants. They also planned to go to collect tea, but guess what, Dad?" Zhou Gui Lai laughed.

"The tea farmers didn't sell them?" Zhou Qing Bai asked.

Zhou Gui Lai grinned: "Didn't sell to them. Only to our family."

In fact, the tea farmers were honest. They weren't the kind to open door for money. They have already came into agreement with Lin Qing He. She will buy all the tea within five years. Not only that, if the annual market price increases, she will also increase it. Tea farmers will not suffer a disadvantage.

What's more, because they collected tea and sold it by themselves, there was no middle men. The price Lin Qing He gave was definitely not something other tea vendors can compare. The price they gave was only 60% of Lin Qing He's. Because the tea was really good, they were willing to increase to 70% or even 80%.

Still, how can this compare with the price given by Lin Qing He? No matter how high the price was, there was no profit. She was produce and sell on their own. As long as she was willing to let go of some profits to the tea farmers, other parties can't take away her suppliers.

Moreover, Lin Qing He knew how to socialize. This time Zhou Gui Lai and Ma Cheng Min brought gifts.

There was a pack of abalone and sea cucumber and isinglass from the dry good shop.

These were the delicacies of the mountains and seas. Very precious gifts. It was enough sincerity, right? The price was good and her gesture were realistic. The tea farmers weren't stupid. Do they still need to talk about who to cooperate with?

Zhou Gui Lai and Ma Cheng Min basically didn't encounter any setbacks on this journey. The tea farmers assured them that new tea will be delivered when the time comes. The quality can be absolutely assured. It absolutely won't go wrong.

The tea farmers themselves also want to maintain a good relationship with such a purchaser.

"My mom got methods." Zhou Gui Lai finally declared with emotion. Then he glanced at his dad with his eyes: "Dad, do you feel particularly relaxed after marrying a woman like Mom?"

Zhou Qing Bai swept his gaze to this son.

Although there was some suspicion of eating soft food, Zhou Qing Bai didn't deny it. After marrying a capable wife, he basically had only one purpose as a husband. Which was to support the front of family and let people know that there was a male master in this family.

The rest, he really didn't need to worry about. As long as he didn't drag his wife's feet, it was fine.

As for whether it hurt his self-esteem, Zhou Qing Bai expressed that he didn't care. So what if his wife was capable? He could marry such a wife and get her have children for him was also his capability.

Not only did Third said it in front of his dad, he also praised in front of his mom. He wanted to find such a wife in the future.

Lin Qing He waved her hand and said, "I'm afraid that you don't have your dad's fate. Go diligently be an old cow."

When she said this, Zhou Qing Bai, who was beside her, raised the corners of his mouth slightly. There was no need to describe the softness in the gaze toward his wife.

Lin Qing He sent a wink at him. Her own, of course, she'll find him attractive.

As the son, Third just tweeted. Really. After so many years, these two couples were still so sticky.

They were already old husband and old wife.
