"Yingzi, are you ready to go back today?"
Zhou Chen looked at the time and asked Qiao Yingzi.
When Qiao Yingzi heard Zhou Chen's voice, she raised her head as if waking up from a dream. Then she was startled and looked at her mobile phone.
"No, my mother has already got off work."
Qiao Yingzi was shocked. Because she hadn't been to Zhou Chen's place for a long time, she had relaxed her vigilance and forgot to set the alarm.
Standing up in a panic, Qiao Yingzi did not leave immediately, but paced back and forth for a few steps, thinking of an excuse.
The music ringtone suddenly rang, and Qiao Yingzi, who was holding her cell phone, shivered in fright because it was her cell phone ringtone that rang.
"It's Tao Zi."
Qiao Yingzi was relieved when she saw that the caller ID was Huang Zhitao. She was really afraid that the person who just called was her mother. She hadn't even thought of an excuse yet and the secret would be exposed by then.
In the past, she would not have been so afraid, but since she became a senior in high school, the relationship between mother and daughter seems to have become much worse.
More importantly, her mother had warned her before not to play with Zhou Chen. If her mother knew that she was playing Lego with Zhou Chen, she would be really angry.
"Hey, Tao Zi."
"Yingzi, how are you? Your mother just called me and asked if you were with me."
"Then what did you say?"
"Of course I said we were together. I said you and I were having a conversation, and then your mother asked you to go back early. Where did you go?"
"I didn't go anywhere, I'll go back now. Thank you, Tao Zi."
After Qiao Yingzi hung up the phone, she breathed a sigh of relief and stood there thinking for a while.
"Zhou Chen, do me a favor and go out to see what's going on at our house?"
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Yingzi, you and your mother are really a magical mother and daughter."
"Don't talk nonsense. If you are a buddy, just go and show me."
"Okay, you wait here, I'll go out and help you take a look."
Zhou Chen had no choice but to open the door and go out for a walk.
"The door to your house is closed. I didn't hear any movement in your house, and I didn't see your mother in the elevator."
"That's good, Zhou Chen, I'll leave first."
After Qiao Yingzi finished speaking, she ran out immediately. Instead of going home directly, she first took the elevator downstairs, and then took the elevator up to the fourth floor, pretending to be coming back from outside.
"You are such a clever little kid."
Zhou Chen witnessed Qiao Yingzi's series of operations. These operations really made his eyes roll, and he felt for Qiao Yingzi in his heart.
In the last month or so of September, apart from studying, Zhou Chen did not go out for fun, but spent the remaining time on the planning document for the mask factory.
The planning document was quickly prepared, and Zhou Chen handed it to his uncle Song Yuan.
Song Yuan was surprised when he saw the plan sent to him by Zhou Chen, because the plan looked very professional. It didn't look like something a senior high school student could do. Even if he was looking for information online, he wanted to do this.
It's definitely not an easy task.
What is even more shocking is the content of the plan. Although some places are not perfect, most of the data and content are worthy of recognition.
The first time he made a planning document, he was able to do it to such an extent, which really impressed Song Yuan. He felt that his nephew definitely had the talent for business.
Therefore, Song Yuan no longer stopped Zhou Chen from wanting to open a mask factory, but instead supported him and told Zhou Chen that if he needed any help, he could call him directly.
After receiving Song Yuan's guarantee, Zhou Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then he could start taking action.
He decided to take care of the mask factory initially during the National Day.
He was not planning to open a factory from scratch, but was planning to directly acquire a small factory, so Zhou Chen set his direct target on those small factories that were not operating well.
Of course, it doesn’t have to be a mask factory. In fact, even if it is another similar factory, it is much better to renovate it than to start from scratch. After all, other workers can use it directly.
Zhou Chen has been searching for a while and found several suitable targets.
These targets are all in the suburbs around Yanjing, and the farthest one is in a small town not very far from Yanjing.
The reason for this is also very simple. He has to go to school now and cannot leave Yanjing. If it is close, he can drive directly there. If it is too far, he will not be able to go there whenever he wants, which is not conducive to his control.
Because his purpose of opening a mask factory is to prepare for the epidemic more than a year later, the most important thing is to stock up. As long as he stocked up enough goods before then, he will definitely not lose money whether it is used for donation or sales in the future.
.
And Zhou Chen also knew very well that the disaster would last for a long, long time. In the future, masks will definitely be an important material. As long as there are factories and channels, making money is a matter of course.
Since the National Day began on the 1st, Zhou Chen had been busy, making a circle around Yanjing City and meeting with the heads of several target factories.
When several people saw that the person they wanted to acquire turned out to be a teenager like Zhou Chen, they immediately lost interest in negotiating. Only a few people were willing to talk to Zhou Chen.
It's just that the reason why these people were willing to talk to Zhou Chen was because they were interested in his age and felt that he was easy to bully at a young age. They doubled the price and wanted to cut off a piece of Zhou Chen's flesh.
But their wishful thinking turned out to be wrong. After all, Zhou Chen had lived for decades and had been a real estate tycoon for several years. How could he be the kind of person who let others take advantage of him?
Zhou Chen naturally didn't bother to pay attention to those who wanted to take advantage of them and slaughter them randomly, and only negotiated with those who were really sincere.
It's just that he kept running until the end of the National Day holiday, but couldn't find a suitable factory, so he had to go back.
After returning home, Zhou Chen was very surprised to see that the living room, bedroom, bathroom and other places were spotless.
You have to know that he hasn't come back to stay for a week, so it stands to reason that it can't be that clean.
But he thought of the reason in the next moment. He had given his key to Qiao Yingzi before, so that she could come over and play Lego by herself when she was free.
The house is so clean now, Qiao Yingzi must have helped clean it.
Unexpectedly, this tomboyish Qiao Yingzi was actually a snail girl.
After the National Day holiday started, many students were talking about where they went and what they played during the National Day. Some top students also talked about what cram schools they attended and how much they learned.
Of course, the term "xueba" is really unfamiliar to the students in the basic class. They only talk about what to play and where to play.
Even Ji Yangyang said that he and his uncle went to Shanghai to participate in an informal racing competition.
Of course, he was only responsible for watching, and it was impossible for his uncle to let him play in such wild scenes.
Fang Yifan, on the other hand, kept asking Zhou Chen where he went and what fun things he did, which made Zhou Chen really impatient.
Compared to the intrigues of negotiating acquisitions, school life really made him feel relaxed and comfortable.
Another thing that makes me unhappy is that this little girl Wang Yidi always comes to him. At the beginning, she just wanted to learn piano music.
But then he slowly started talking about other things, and the more he talked about it, the more he talked about it, as if Zhou Chen was someone he could talk about. Sometimes he even complained to him aggrievedly, saying how hard it was for him to learn to sing and dance.
Zhou Chen originally thought that this girl Wang Yidi was annoying and rude, but after being in contact with her for a long time, he also discovered many advantages of Wang Yidi.
She was really rude, but she also had a big heart. Although Teacher Zhou Chen was very angry and angry at the time, she turned around and quickly returned to normal and continued talking to Zhou Chen.
It was as if nothing had happened.
From Wang Yidi's narration, Zhou Chen also knew how hard Wang Yidi worked. When she was very young, her mother gave her the idea of ​​​​taking art exams in the future, so she started training from an early age.
Zhou Chen has been in the music industry for many years and is very aware of the hardships of this industry. It is very hard after becoming famous, let alone before becoming famous.
Wang Yidi has to attend classes during the day, cram schools at night, and art classes during his breaks. It can be said that it is harder than most of his classmates.
Under such pressure, she was still able to maintain such a mentality and be a talkative. To be honest, her psychological quality was much stronger than that of her peers.
Slowly, Zhou Chen no longer disliked this girl so much. Instead, he would say a few words to her, but he never let go about teaching her how to play the piano.
"Zhou Chen, why don't you want to teach me? Is it because you composed that piece of music for Qiao Yingzi that you don't want to teach me?"
During the lunch break, Zhou Chen found a corner to rest, but unexpectedly Wang Yidi came looking for him again.
Zhou Chen looked helpless. He had just been thinking about the mask factory and was planning to go to another factory on the weekend, which was a factory located in a small town on the edge of Yanjing.
That factory was originally listed last because it was relatively small and remote.
But after being rejected by many factories in succession, he decided to go to that factory to have a look. If it was okay, it would be possible to negotiate.
When we were facing, Wang Yidi came.
"Wang Yidi, why do you have to worry about this? If you have this time, you can find other people to study. There is no need to keep an eye on me."
"That's okay, no one else is as good as you. The more I know about you, the more I think you are a very powerful person. If I hadn't known that you have a crush on Qiao Yingzi, maybe I would still have a good impression of you."
Wang Yidi sat next to Zhou Chen, holding his chin with his hands, blinking his big eyes very smartly.
