Chapter 173: Liu Dong
(Thank you for growing up a little pawn, the two brothers who are handjob all over the world for the reward, thank you for subscribing.) )
Chen Mo didn't take her words to heart, thinking that this was just a child's momentary sigh. On the contrary, she is happy because she is no longer pestered to go to the beach, because it reduces the probability of her being allergic.
Quancheng is a city with a developed economy and a warm climate. Coming here from the cold capital, I took off my thick winter clothes and made Yiyi look very happy. However, for the sake of eating one by one, Chen Mo did not have many opportunities to play outside, and had to return to the hotel on time every day, and under his supervision, prepare her food for one by one.
CNPC is a big customer of this hotel, with the advice of the reception staff here, Chen Mo's little request, everyone in the hotel dare not have a trace of sloppiness. If it was true that Jean Yiyi was seriously ill because of eating the food in their hotel, they couldn't afford it.
The chef prepares the ingredients in strict accordance with the allergens one by one, and even specially prepared a small pot for her, which is cleaned and clean, without a trace of other oil.
Chen Mo often sighs, fortunately, Yiyi was born in a family like theirs, with a little power and a little family background. If you were born in an ordinary family, I am afraid that you would not have the opportunity to grow up at all, let alone run around and see the world.
After playing in Quancheng for three days, Chen Mo remembered the purpose of his visit and prepared to go to the tea set market to have a look.
The two staff members of the general manager's office, a man and a woman, were in charge of receiving him from CNPC, both of whom were thirty years old. Because they were instructed by the company's CEO, they had a very affectionate attitude towards Chen Mo, one inside the main and the other outside the home, and the service was very thoughtful.
However, the boss of their company never showed up, and no reception banquet was arranged. Chen Mo could understand his state of mind. He was looking at Kang Xuedong's face and warmly entertained Chen Mo and them as an elder. If he came out to receive Chen Mo by himself, he would take Chen Mo too seriously. Anyway, he is also an official at the same level as Kang Xuedong, and even more powerful than Kang Xuedong, who is the general manager of the purchasing department.
Chen Mo also insisted on refusing to let the other party pay for their meals and accommodation, which he didn't care about at all, but if this entertainment fee was classified as public expense. The impact is not so good.
The only advantage they have is two more free guides and a special car that can take them anywhere at any time.
Quancheng is the hometown of tea, because of the rise of tea, tea sets and tea tables, a series of upstream and downstream supporting markets, all over the city. Chen Mo didn't know much about tea, and he didn't want to sell big knives in front of Guan Gong, so he was ready to directly ask his colleagues to help buy a few catties. The main purpose of his visit was still for the tea table.
A chessboard-sized tea table can be used. A tabletop-sized coffee table is also classy. But since Chen Mo wants to give gifts, the grade of these is a little low, even if it is made of sandalwood imported from abroad, it can't shake Berezovsky all at once.
When he promised Berezovsky, what he wanted was to give Berezovsky a carved tea table. That size can occupy a room, but also has a chic shape, atmosphere, and can calm people at once. As for the materials. Such a tea table can't be sandalwood at all, it's not that Chen Mo can't afford it. It's that sandalwood trees are difficult to grow, and they don't have that big roots at all.
After running in Quancheng for two days, Chen Mo finally picked out a set of carved tea tables, which people here call the sea of tea, and they don't know how the name came from.
This tea table is more than four meters long and nearly two meters wide. The table top is 80 centimeters high and is divided into three levels, as well as a waterwheel and a waterfall. A dragon is carved in front of the tea table, and the height of the dragon's head is nearly one and a half meters. There is a lifelike carp on each side.
The tea table also comes with two motors, one motor is responsible for loading the water, and the other motor controls the waterwheel waterfall. As for drainage, although it is not automatic, there is a manual suction pump, which adds a bit of spice.
Due to the general material, although this tea table is almost the size of a car, the price is not too expensive, plus eight wooden stools with unique shapes, the total price is 65,000. However, after talking about the price, he finally won 58,000, and gave Chen Mo a set of ceramic tea sets that can change color.
The embryo of this tea set is quite delicate, and the dragon and phoenix pattern is carved on it, and when boiling water is poured in, the color of the dragon and phoenix pattern begins to change color. Although the texture is average, it can be used to fool crooked nuts, which can make them shocked.
However, Chen Mo felt that it was not good to fool Berezovsky like this, and he spent money to buy a set of authentic purple clay pot tea sets, although he was not a famous one, but he also spent more than 10,000 yuan, depending on whether Berezovsky knew the goods.
After buying this tea table, I arranged for the boss to pack it up, and let the colleagues of CNPC send it directly to the northernmost ice city of the motherland, where they will be loaded directly onto the train to Moscow.
However, Chen Mo did not go home directly, but took Yiyi to Pengcheng and took her to her uncle's house to live for a while.
Her uncle Liu Dong also got married once when he was young, but he was even more miserable than Liu Xia, and had two children, but they died before they grew up. Although he was a university professor, his wife insisted on divorcing him.
Over the years, Liu Dong has not looked for a wife again, and has always lived alone. Seeing that Yiyi's illness was hopefully cured, he knew how much it would cost, and he didn't think about organizing a family and having a child by himself. Because he knows that just as a professor, although he has a good income, he can't support a child who is like a money-swallowing monster. In addition, he is also old, but he pins his hopes on this niece.
In the past, he didn't dare to be kind to Yiyi at all, for fear that he would step into the footsteps of Roujia and his two children, which would make him more sad. But after he had hope, he couldn't control his heart anymore, and these days, he talked on the phone twice a day.
From Quancheng to Pengcheng, Chen Mo and the others still took the train. Before he got off the train, Chen Mo saw the vitality of this special zone in the south of the motherland. This brand-new city and the capital are completely different types of cities, and everything makes Chen Mo feel so fresh. It's just that he has to apply for a border defense certificate when he comes over, which makes Chen Mo extremely puzzled. In your own country, you don't want to go to Hong Kong, what kind of border permit do you get!
Yiyi has been very happy these days, and his body is also very competitive, and he has never had a cold and fever. Except for falling asleep again at night, calling a few times for his mother in his dreams, hiding in the quilt and being depressed for a while, shedding a few tears, and not causing Chen Mo any trouble.
The temperature in Pengcheng was higher than that in Quancheng, and it was just noon when Chen Mo and the others got off the bus, and the streets were full of people with short sleeves and short skirts. The train station is very close to the port to Hong Kong, and the security here is not good, Chen Mo has been holding them one by one in his arms, and when he got out of the train station, he was sweating.
Liu Dong was waiting for them at the exit of the station, and when he saw Yiyi, he took it and carefully held it in his arms. "One by one, are you tired?"
"Not tired. Hello uncle. ”
"Good, good, one by one. Thank you, Xiao Mo, for bothering you. ”
"Uncle is polite, this is what I should do."
From the train station to Pengcheng University, almost the entire city was crossed, and Chen Mo came to this vibrant city for the first time, sitting in the back seat of the car and looking out. "It's like a big construction site everywhere."
"No, I don't go out very often, and sometimes I get lost." Liu Dong didn't raise his head, and said teasing one by one: "Yiyi, my uncle will take you to buy clothes in the afternoon, and tomorrow I will take you to the Window of the World for a good day, okay?" ”
"Okay, I want to ride the merry-go-round."
"Okay, whatever you want to play, my uncle can satisfy you."
Liu Dong lives in a 150-square-meter house allocated by the school, and he seems very empty when he lives alone. It is said that he originally rented two rooms to the students of the school, but in order to welcome the arrival of Yiyi, he temporarily took back both of the houses.
Yiyi can't eat meat, there are many kinds of vegetables here, and he prepared a lot of warm vegetables according to Yiyi's recipe. However, his skills are a little worse, and he doesn't seem to be a cook, so it took him a long time to make a dish.
"Uncle, you rest, I'll come. One by one, I'm used to my craft. ”
Liu Dong felt extremely embarrassed, "I'm alone, and I often deal with it casually in school, and I haven't cooked by myself." What do you think of this sesame oil? A colleague of mine is from Henan, and he asked him to bring pure sesame oil from his hometown. ”
Chen Mo smelled it, the oil seemed to be relatively pure, and a strong fragrance came to his nose. "Not bad. Eat the vegetables one by one, put them in water and cook them, put a little less salt in the water, and when they are served, just put a little oil. Your school looks good! ”
"This is true, the hardware conditions are also counted in the country, but in terms of software conditions, it cannot be compared with some long-established schools, and the talent pool cannot keep up."
The two of them chatted and cooked together, and after a while, they made three green vegetables and steamed a Fushou fish. "I arrived late at noon, so I will take a look at it first, and I arranged it in the evening, and invited a few escorts to give you a good reception."
"It's okay for me, you give me two loaves of bread and I can handle one meal. As long as you eat happily one by one. ”
In the afternoon, Liu Dong took Yiyi to the campus of their school to play, and wanted to show his face in front of his other colleagues, but Chen Mo didn't follow and didn't bother his Yaxing.
He slept in his room for a while, and the sunlight coming in from the window woke him up. It's only the beginning of March, and the temperature in Pengcheng is the same as summer. Chen Mo got up and took a shower, changed into summer clothes, but forgot to bring short sleeves, and could only put on a long-sleeved shirt and pull up the cuffs.
Ran to Liu Dong's study and sat for a while, Chen Mo originally wanted to find a book to kill time for a while, but after entering, as soon as he saw a room full of math books, he escaped.
When he was in school, his math was a weakness, and now there is no pressure on his grades, and he has a headache when he sees it. (To be continued.) )
