Qiu Xiaotian left depressed.

I thought that he threw out an olive branch to learn to paint, but as a girl, she would definitely admire his extraordinary artistic temperament and accept it without hesitation.

But Zhao Li didn't.

So much so that the last ten minutes of that class were spent in an extremely awkward atmosphere.

Extracurricular activities.

Zhao Liqiao's face blushed unabated, not because in front of the whole class, an art teacher who thought she was coquettish couldn't get off the stage, but because she hadn't been paid such attention for many years because of her subject expertise and excellence.

"Should I promise him?" asked Wu Tao.

Wu Tao replied without asking: "You don't hesitate to use your dowry book to come here, have you ever thought about what to do in three years?"

"Didn't think about it. Zhao Li shook her head dryly.

Wu Tao couldn't help but be speechless, she was really an upright beautiful girl. "Uh, okay. Then I'll tell you the truth, don't mind. ”

Zhao Li nodded vigorously, and her pretty face was unprecedentedly serious.

"With your current grades, if you want to be admitted to the second book in three years, you need to work very hard! But if you take the recruitment path of art students, the admission score of the college entrance examination can be 20 points lower than that of the same batch, which greatly increases the hope for you. ”

“...... What's more, if you master the ability to draw comics, you will be able to support yourself with comics even if you don't get into college in the future. ”

"Really?" Zhao Li raised her eyebrows, revealing a strong interest.

"Of course, but the college entrance examination policy for students with artistic specialties needs to be checked again, and I don't know the details......"

Before Wu Tao finished speaking, she interrupted and said, "I'm not talking about this, I'm curious that painting can really support myself?"

"Yes, I promise yes!"

Zhao Li tilted her head and nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you and learn to paint." However, is Mr. Qiu reliable? After all, others seem to be too ......."

Wu Tao immediately understood what she meant, and said with a smile: "You mean that he is not very serious and reliable, right?"

Seeing her nodding, Wu Tao continued: "It's okay, he's just a little coquettish." People who engage in art will have a bit of a quirk. But you don't need to take the initiative to find him, don't worry, with what I know about him, he will still come to you. ”

......

At noon the next day, Xu Jiawen and Chen Yongli came out of the first shop in the alley of the East Gate.

Picking his teeth in his hand, his face is still unfinished.

Chen Yongli said flatteringly: "Brother Wen, I said that this movie is exciting......, right?

There was a tacit smile on their faces.

In this era, some unclassified films from Hong Kong and Taiwan often flowed into the small video halls in the mainland. Looking at their appearance, I guess that's what I saw just now.

At this moment, Xu Jiawen's eyes suddenly narrowed, watching Wu Tao come out of the east gate, turn right to the south, and enter a small shop without walking a few steps.

"I remember that no one had closed down for a long time. Chen Yongli recalled.

"Let's go, go over and have a look. ”

The two passed by the east gate and walked a few steps, only to find that not only the snack bar that was listed for transfer had closed down, but the one next door to it had also closed.

And Wu Tao walked in here in a dignified manner, Xu Jiawen's heart moved, could it be that he bought it?

"Brother Wen, could it be that these two shops are owned by his family? His family is very thick, and it seems that the farmhouse has really made a lot of money. Chen Yongli said this, and there was envy in his tone.

Xu Jiawen said disdainfully: "What's the use of making money from the farmhouse?

"No, Brother Wen, how can you be so sure?"

"Think about it, since we were in the first year of high school, how many times have the owners of these two small shops changed?"

Chen Yongli tried to recall: "I can't remember the specific stubble, but there are at least five or six stubbles." ”

"So, do a snack business here, pay one for one!"

"Brother Wen, what if his family doesn't plan to make snacks?" Chen Yongli asked with a blank eye.

Xu Jiawen knocked him on the head angrily, "Then we'll see." ”

......

In the snack bar, the original dilapidated facilities were all knocked out.

Wu Tao was lying on the table and looking at the drawings with Wu Binghua, listening to him renovate the store according to the decoration style of McDonald's.

Just yesterday, Aunt Hua had already taken down all the stores near the three high schools.

The Beijiang Middle School is the largest because it is a two-in-one, with a pavement of more than 40 square meters on the first floor, and a corridor on the second floor, which is almost the same size.

The father and son were discussing, and Aunt Ma came out of the back kitchen with two meals.

"Master, you two will eat your food while it's hot, and it's not enough for me to add more. ”

"Aunt Xie Ma. Wu Tao took it and hurriedly thanked him.

"Thank you!" Aunt Ma is Zhao Jinhuai's wife, and she is very enthusiastic.

Wu Binghua set up a construction team, and Zhao Jinhuai, as a big apprentice, was naturally qualified to join. So he gave up the idle work of watching diesel generator sets in the farmhouse and followed the construction team to make a lot of money.

This time when I went into the city for decoration, a group of people wanted to eat and drink, so Aunt Ma followed.

Wu Tao also knew about this, so he came over at meal time and ate while he was eating.

In the past few days, Aunt Hua has been running around to do all kinds of industrial and commercial and tax procedures, and she can't take care of him for a while.

The father and son took the big bowl and ate it to the big one.

Wu Binghua re-estimated the cost according to his son's request just now, and pondered: "According to your idea, the decoration cost will be 20% more." ”

"It's okay, Dad, money isn't an issue. Wu Tao muttered.

"How much money can you make when you open these three stores? According to me, it will take more than half a year to earn back the cost of decoration alone. ”

"Dad, you don't believe your son?"

"It's not that I don't believe you," Wu Binghua said in a familiar manner: "In business, there are always losses and gains." There's a lot of luck in this, so you can't make a lot of money every time, right?"

Well, I can't say much about that.

Wu Tao had no choice but to wave his hand and said nonchalantly: "You'll know when the time comes." Besides, even if it is a loss, this little money can't hurt my 'muscles and bones'. Anyway, I have a lot of money now, and I can afford to lose it!"

"Then tell me, how much money did you make in your company in Jinling?"

In fact, Wu Binghua wanted to ask this question last time.

Wu Tao raised his eyes to look at the roof and recalled: "Three days ago, when Fei Ge and I reported, there were still about 8 million surplus funds on the company's books. ”

Wu Binghua immediately choked on a mouthful of food, and said in a hoarse voice: "How much? 8 million?"

Wu Tao nodded, in the past two weeks, the company's sales have increased by 4 million, plus the original 10 million, excluding the preparation budget of Zhonghai Branch, the construction cost of Yuankang water dispenser assembly plant, and the working capital of the normal operation of the entire Yuankang company, there is at least 8 million surplus capital.

When the China Shipping branch is up and running, Wu Tao believes that the money will skyrocket at a faster rate.
