340. Returnees
That was a few years ago, and now Jianming is in charge of the production of raw materials in South Africa, what is it called, that position?" Xia Shuyi turned her head and asked.
"It's the ImportManager. Tan Jianming said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, this name is so tongue-twisting, I can't remember it for a long time. Xia Shuyi looked not very satisfied, and said: "So our text is better to remember, simple and clear." ”
"It's hard over there, isn't it? I've heard it's hot over there. Song Feng learned.
Tan Jianming smiled and nodded, "Not all places are hot, and most of the time I stay in the office. However, there is a reward for paying, and being an ImportManager in Africa is more paid than in the United States. ”
"Oh, how many?" Song Fengxue asked curiously.
Tan Jianming raised his head slightly, and replied with some pride: "The annual salary is 800,000 US dollars." ”
"800,000 US dollars?" Song Fengxue showed a surprised expression, converted into RMB, there are already five or six million.
This kind of salary is quite good even in some large enterprises. Many low-level people may not be able to make so much money in their lifetime.
Seeing the surprise on the faces of the good sisters, Xia Shuyi was also very comfortable.
She didn't think about deliberately showing off anything in front of her good sisters, but it was always a good thing for her son to be promising, and she couldn't help but feel proud of it.
"By the way, does Yun Yun still work in that company?" Xia Shuyi asked.
The last time she came, Ji Qingyun had just graduated and joined Dekai as a salesman.
Now, a few years later, I think I have established myself in the company.
When Song Fengxue was about to answer, the door opened, and Ji Qingyun pushed the door and walked in.
When she saw a few people in the room, she was a little surprised.
Xia Shuyi stood up and praised with a smile: "Yun Yun is really getting more and more beautiful as she grows, this appearance is more than enough to be a big star." ”
Tan Jianming next to him also stood up, and when he looked at Ji Qingyun, his eyes showed a look of surprise.
Maybe not every part of Africa is as hot as it is rumored, but it's true that there are black people who don't fit the Asian aesthetic.
Tan Jianming has been in Africa for several years, and he sees dark skin every day, and when he returns to China this time, he sees a typical oriental beauty like Ji Qingyun, and his heart is shaken.
Ji Qingyun also knew Xia Shuyi, and came over to say hello: "Aunt Xia." ”
"And this, Tan Jianming, your Aunt Xia's son, do you remember?" Song Fengxue said.
Tan Jianming, who had been staring at Ji Qingyun, took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said with a smile, "Hello." ”
"Hello. Ji Qingyun shook hands with him briefly, and didn't have much impression of this man. As for the amazement and thirst in Tan Jianming's eyes, she has seen too much and has long been unimpressed.
Seeing the longing in her son's eyes, Xia Shuyi didn't understand what he was thinking.
To be honest, the economic conditions of Song Fengxue's family may not be particularly good, but they are not bad.
The most important thing is that Xia Shuyi knows them well.
The family is not bad-hearted, not to mention that Ji Zeming is still a university professor and is knowledgeable.
Although Ji Qingyun's achievements seem to be far from her own son, there is no need to be too strong for women.
If it is too powerful, it is easy to cause unnecessary pressure on men.
Therefore, Xia Shuyi said in a joking tone: "Jianming, don't look at people directly. But Feng Xue, Jianming is now a bachelor waiting for you to rescue, how is your family, do you have a boyfriend?
Song Fengxue was a little embarrassed and said, "Xiao Yun is already married. ”
"Married?" Xia Shuyi was slightly stunned and felt a little embarrassed. Other people's daughters are married, and even if it sounds like a joke, it's a little embarrassing.
As he was talking, Zhou Rui also pushed the door and came in.
Song Fengxue hurriedly said: "Cao Cao Cao arrived, Zhou Rui, this is your Aunt Xia, do you remember? I came to our house before, and I bought you a Walkman." Shuyi, this is my son-in-law, Zhou Rui, and I still have an impression, right?"
Zhou Rui remembered Xia Shuyi, and the other party did buy him a Walkman as a gift. But that was more than ten years ago, when Zhou Rui had just graduated from junior high school a few years ago and was boarding in Ji's house.
Everyone else is using MP3, but even his Walkman is a luxury.
Zhou Rui has always been reluctant to ask for the gifts given by the Ji family, because he is afraid that he owes too much.
But Xia Shuyi sent it, and he was not very polite.
After all, at that time, the young man's heart was still playful, even if his family had just undergone great changes a few years ago.
Therefore, seeing Xia Shuyi again, Zhou Rui still felt quite cordial.
It's just that Xia Shuyi doesn't have much impression of Zhou Rui, and always feels that this junior, who is about the same age as her son, looks a little familiar, and when she thinks about the Walkman, she suddenly remembers, isn't this the kid who has been staying in the Ji family?
In the past ten years, Xia Shuyi has come to Ji's house no more than three times, and she has only seen Zhou Rui once.
Other times, I only heard a little about Zhou Rui from Ji Zeming and Song Fengxue.
She only knew that Zhou Rui's parents died, and after boarding the Ji family, he dropped out of junior high school and inherited a small bookstore from his father. I vaguely remember that the profit of that bookstore seemed to be only 1,800 yuan.
These days, there are so many things that can be played, all kinds of games, short videos, live broadcasts, etc.
There are fewer people who even read e-books, let alone buy physical books.
I didn't look at the bookstores that used to fill the streets, but now most of them are all closed.
The Ji family sympathized with Zhou Rui and it was understandable to help him, but when she heard that Ji Qingyun was married to Zhou Rui, Xia Shuyi couldn't understand it.
Could it be that Zhou Rui's bookstore business has become bigger?
Thinking of this, Xia Shuyi suddenly asked, "Zhou Rui, isn't your bookstore very profitable?"
Zhou Rui was puzzled by the second monk she asked, so dignified, why is this asked?
He shook his head and said very honestly: "I can't make any money, there are very few people who buy books now, only eight or nine hundred a month, and I can get more than a thousand." ”
With a "snort", several people turned their heads to look, but it was Tan Jianming who couldn't help but laugh.
When he heard that Ji Qingyun got married, Tan Jianming was very disappointed.
He has talked to several girlfriends before, but there are great differences between Eastern and Western concepts, cultures, and all aspects. At first, it will be a little fresh, but after a long time, it will not get along after all.
Ji Qingyun's stunning beauty shocked Tan Jianming, and when his mother said that she wanted to match the two, he was even more ecstatic.
If you can spend your life with such a stunning beauty, what else is there to pursue in life?
Especially Ji Qingyun's strong woman temperament, which makes her look like an unruly wild horse, which can easily arouse every man's desire to conquer.
It's a pity that Ji Qingyun got married.
However, when he saw Zhou Rui and learned about Zhou Rui through a few words, Tan Jianming suddenly felt a trace of disdain in his heart.
To be precise, jealousy and contempt are mixed with each other.
Looking at Ji Qingyun again, he felt a pang of regret.
It's a shame to marry such a beautiful woman who doesn't have much accomplishment.
However, he didn't think about spending his life with Ji Qingyun anymore, after all, he was also a returnee with an annual salary of 800,000 US dollars, how could he rob his wife with others.
Just don't want to rob, it doesn't mean that Tan Jianming will be so depressed.
He couldn't wait to show his strength more, so that Ji Qingyun knew what she had missed.
This should be the nature of men, or rather, something that every male animal likes to do.
And when they heard Zhou Rui talk about the bookstore, Song Fengxue and Ji Qingyun both saw some expressions on Xia Shuyi's face that they were once very familiar with.
This kind of look has appeared on the faces of many people around him.
But then, no one dared to do that anymore.
Because when they learned Zhou Rui's true strength, they would only think about how to please Bajie.
"That...... Zhou Rui is no longer a bookstore, and has opened a pharmacy instead, and the business is very good. Song Fengxue said.
She and Xia Shuyi are good sisters, and they don't come to each other to slap others in the face.
It's a pity that Xia Shuyi didn't understand this sentence, which can also be understood that she didn't take it seriously.
