Although it is not as convenient now as when he first came to Xiangjiang, for Xu Zhengdao, he has not changed much. In his words, if you want to spend time in Xiangjiang, then stay in Xiangjiang. If you want to go back to Kyoto, take a plane back.

Compared with the previous two years, the number of flights between the two places is also much higher than two years ago. There are daily flights between the two places, so it is undoubtedly convenient to go back and forth. It's just that sometimes he needs to show up once in a while.

Over the years, moving into the Mid-Levels Manor, Xu Zhengdao belongs to the kind of master who doesn't go out when he has nothing to do. So after leaving for a few days, no one knows whether he is in the manor or has already left Xiangjiang.

Those who really know his whereabouts, in addition to his uncle Lin Xuanzhen, may also have Yu Jianling. As for the others, even Zhou Huimin and Zhang Manyu, who are pillow people, actually don't know his whereabouts.

After landing, Xu Zhengdao still took the shuttle bus to the hotel, but after returning to the city, he still exchanged some foreign exchange coupons and left. Just like when he left Xiangjiang, he didn't tell his family when he came back.

Looking at the Shichahai courtyard that had been idle for a while, Xu Zhengdao also knew that this courtyard had an extremely limited time to live in a year. Now there are so many yards idle, it's a bit of a waste!

The problem is that renting to others is not much money for rent, not to mention that Xu Zhengdao is worried that the tenant will not feel sorry for the house. What's more, these courtyard houses he purchased are basically placed with a few valuable old furniture.

Although he felt that it was a bit of a waste, Xu Zhengdao still comforted himself: "Maybe in a few more years, these houses will be occupied." You can't sell it now, right? Doesn't that seem silly? ”

After comforting himself, Xu Zhengdao, who launched the bicycle again, came to visit Qian's house first. Regarding his arrival, Qian Chuanlin, who has really retired at home in the past two years, was very surprised: "Why is this coming back?" ”

"Why can't I come back? In Kyoto, I'm also sitting on the ground! ”

"That's not it, it just feels sudden. I'm still thinking, you probably won't come back until the Chinese New Year! ”

"Now it's convenient to travel back and forth between the two places, and if you want to come back and see, then come back and see." What about you? How's it going? ”

"Didn't you see that? Eat well, drink well, sleep well, sit and wait for death. ”

"Hey, it's not been a few days since this good day, and you're thinking about making furniture for Lord Yama? I guess people don't look down on your craft. Therefore, you still live well in the yang world, and don't go to demolish other people's Hades Palace. ”

", what bastard are you talking about! How long will you stay when you come back this time? ”

"It depends! I guess I think I will stay until the beginning of next month. ”

After chatting a few words, Xu Zhengdao also cooked himself into the kitchen to stir-fry and estimate the rice. What is different from the past is that this time I had dinner at Qian's house, and I specially drank He Xiaowu. Knowing that he was back, He Xiaowu was naturally full of joy.

Relying on a salary of 300 yuan per month, He Xiaowu's work leisurely made him feel extremely unsteady. In Qian Chuanlin's words, this kid has to ride a bicycle every day to inspect the courtyard he took over!

When drinking and eating, Xu Zhengdao also said directly: "Old Qian, do you know that there is a relatively high-grade courtyard?" It's better to have three or four hospitals, and I'm going to buy it and make an office. ”

"There must be such yards, but they are basically in the hands of the public. If you really want to buy it, you can only buy it from the public. It's just that this kind of good yard is generally not easy to sell by the public, so you have to find a way. ”

"Is that so? That's it, I know about it. In two days, you can accompany me out for a walk to see what good yards there are, and let's try to make a better one. Has anyone been looking for you lately about the acquisition of old furniture? ”

"Yes! But basically, they all sell more and buy less. You know, a lot of people aren't having a good time right now. ”

Listening to Qian Chuanlin's words, Xu Zhengdao thought for a while and said, "Those publicly-managed consignment stores, do they also have a lot of really good old furniture?" If so, wouldn't it be easier to buy it with foreign currency? ”

"That's for sure! However, you kid still plan to continue to collect it? This matter is still relatively taboo at the moment. ”

Compared with last year, when the storm first rose, although the storm is a little smaller, many people are still cautious, for fear of being reported. This kind of crime of speculation on the stall will still make many people unable to eat and walk around.

But Xu Zhengdao also said directly: "Old Qian, what if I give you a talisman?" Presumably not a big problem, right? ”

"Amulet, what do you mean?"

"I asked Xiao Wu to do things for me before, didn't you say that you want to build an office in Kyoto? That's why I'm here to come back. The courtyard house I bought is also used as an office and reception for the office.

The front office, the back of the people, spend some money to decorate the yard well. Later, friends from Xiangjiang or artists from the company came over. It is also possible to stay in a hotel and let them feel the cultural heritage of old Kyoto.

For the time being, I will be the director of the office, and Xiao Wu will be a clerk first. At that time, the office, pull a phone or something, at least it looks like an office. In the later stage, the company will also send artists to visit and learn.

Although you are a little older, but you also have the advantage of being old, I will arrange a position for you as a consultant, and pay you a salary every month, so that you can feel the taste of getting a salary when you are old. ”

"Is this really possible? What about Xiangjiang's company, can you have the final say? ”

"Old Qian, you don't believe in my ability! No matter what, I am also a shareholder, even if there are not many shares, but I am also a shareholder. Besides, if you really want to deal with China, do you think they are familiar with me? ”

"That's right, the strong dragon doesn't suppress the head snake. So how much are you going to pay me? If you don't do less, you won't do more! ”

"Hey, Xiao Wu, look at it, he is still relying on the old to sell the old. How much is the salary, do you say the number? ”

"Sixty-one months, what's it like? Knowing that your kid is not bad for money, but if you give too much, it's not good! ”

Seeing that Qian Chuanlin offered to get a salary of sixty yuan a month, Xu Zhengdao thought for a while and said, "It's okay, I'll listen to you this time." But if you pay a bonus at the end of the year, then you have to listen to me. It is natural to get paid according to work. ”

"Done! Mainly, with such an identity, I am not afraid of other people's eyes. Some people just can't see the good of others! ”

"It's normal! That's why I said, find you a talisman! Whoever dares to report you, then take the work card and slap him in the face. ”

"Well, that's a good idea, you can try it when you have a chance."

After eating at Qian's house, Xu Zhengdao did not forget to go to He's house. Seeing Mother He, who was already able to do housework, and Grandpa He Xiaowu, who could walk on the ground, Xu Zhengdao made a special trip to diagnose their pulse, which made the He family extremely moved.

Relying on He Xiaowu's work, the He family is really worry-free now. Although life is still frugal, compared with last year, the life of the He family now has made many people envious.

It's just that because the office has not been set up, many people have also begun to slander He Xiaowu, and what kind of unsightly work they are doing. Otherwise, what about the He family's so much money? The previous bitterness haha, how could this be turned over!
