The two of them came out of the vegetable market. Yan Chen said that he had to collect a package, so the two of them went to the postal mailing and receiving office.
After Yan Chen took the package, he opened it and checked it again. Xiang Jin saw an exquisite women's watch lying in an exquisite box.
Except for the metal part on the surface, which is stainless steel, the rest of the watch is black. It has a genuine leather strap, and the whole watch exudes a simple and noble sense of elegance. At the same time, it also gives people
A natural, classic beauty that never fades.
"Well, this watch is good. Grandma Mo will definitely like it," Xiang Jin commented impartially, looking at the watch.
Yan Chen laughed and suddenly thrust the watch box containing the watch into her hand, "It's not for my grandma, it's for you!"
"Give it to me?" Looking at the sudden extra object in his hand, Xiang Jin pointed to his nose with a surprised expression, "Why did you give it to me?"
Yan Chen said, "You are building a house, and I can't think of a good gift to give you. But I think you have a strong sense of time, so I thought it might be more appropriate to give you a watch."
Xiang Jin said, "No, what gift do you want to give? Didn't your grandparents give us such a gift? What else do you want to give?"
Yan Chen said, "They are them, and I am me, but I didn't expect that I arrived a little late. I didn't catch up yesterday. I hope you don't mind."
Xiang Jin said, "I don't mind, what do I mind? But your watch is too expensive, I can't have it."
Seeing her refusal, Yan Chen said, "Whatever is valuable or not is not worth much."
"Is it strange that I believe you?" Xiang Jin rolled his eyes at him angrily, "Although I don't know much about watches, but based on the exquisite design of its appearance, I know that its price must be high."
Besides, she had read countless things in her previous life, and she could still tell the difference between what was good and what was bad.
Yan Chen said, "It's really not much money. I got this watch from my aunt's shop at the cost price!"
"Do you still have an aunt?"
"Well, there is one."
"Your aunt's family owns a watch shop?"
"Well, that's right."
"What does it mean?" Xiang Jin was a little confused.
Yan Chen said, "In addition to making watches, their family also sells clocks and pocket watches."
"Pocket watch? How old has it been, and there are still people using pocket watches?" Xiang Jin was surprised.
Yan Chen said, "Some people are nostalgic for collection purposes."
"Oh," Xiang Jin nodded and then asked, "What is the cost price of your watch? How about I buy it from you? I do need a watch anyway?"
Yan Chen's brows immediately knitted together, and his face became a little cold. He just looked at him intently, "Xiang Jin, I thought we were already friends. Friends give each other gifts, so they should return the favor.
You can’t tell the difference so clearly, right?”
The smile on Xiang Jin's lips faded, and without saying a word, Yan Chen said, "If you don't want to accept it, then just throw it away. Anyway, I can't find anyone else to give it to." After saying this, Yan Chen wiped his hands
Her shoulders are gone.
Angry?
Looking at his leaving figure, Xiang Jin opened his mouth, and then chased after him, "Hey, I'm just giving you something, why are you still angry?"
Yan Chen ignored her and continued walking forward!
Xiang Jin stared at his back and shouted to him, "Oh, Yan Chen, are you still not a friend?"
Yan Chen stood still, turned sideways, and still looked at her with a neutral gaze, "I treat you as a friend, but you don't treat me as a friend!"
"Who said that?" Xiang Jin walked up to him and rolled his eyes angrily, "I think you are still a young man now and still rely on your family for support, but you gave me such an expensive watch. It's psychological.
I feel a little sorry, and besides, now that I have money, I can buy a watch."
Yan Chen said, "You don't have to feel bad. I stopped using my family's money two years ago. Now I use my own money, and I'm not as poor as you think."
Xiang Jin was startled for a moment, and then said, "I'm not poor either." She now has a household worth ten thousand yuan.
Yan Chen smiled and said, "I know!"
Seeing the slight smile on his face, Xiang Jin said, "Oh, okay, okay, I'll accept your gift." It's such a pity to throw away such a good watch casually.
Don’t you know how to feel sorry for me? What a waste of money!
Then her expression became serious again, "But to be honest, I like this look, thank you very much?"
Yan Chen smiled, "No thanks!"
At about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, Han Che called and asked Xiang Jin to pick it up. Xiang Jin didn't know what he wanted to see her for. The moment she picked up the phone, Han Che took the call.
An apologetic voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Xiang Jin, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I actually remembered the date wrong. I forgot that you went up to the Liang to build the house yesterday. I thought it was today."
"It's okay, how are you doing lately?" Xiang Jin asked.
Han Che said, "It's very good. Let me tell you, my second uncle and I have been studying cooking skills recently. Since cooking according to the recipes you gave me, the business of my second uncle's restaurant has increased every day."
It’s always full, starting from 11 o’clock in the morning and ending at 90 o’clock in the evening. Many people have to call in advance to make reservations for dinner, for fear that they will be late and there will be no seats.”
Xiang Jin smiled and said, "Okay, how many dishes have you learned recently?"
Han Che said on the other end of the phone, "There are three dishes, but there are two dishes that are 70% or 80% similar in taste to what you made."
Xiang Jin said, "Okay, then it seems that you are really talented in cooking."
Han Che chuckled on the other end of the phone and said, "My family also said the same. They think that if I can't get into a good university or find a good job in the future, it would be a good idea to just go home and run a restaurant."
A good choice for doors.”
Xiang Jin nodded on the other end of the phone, "Well, indeed, once the restaurant is well run, it is also a very good business. You must know that opening a restaurant is still very profitable. It is one of the huge profit industries."
Han Che said, "That is, compared to my bookstore, the profit is indeed much higher. Oh, let me tell you something."
"Well, what do you mean?" Seeing his rare serious attitude, Xiang Jin also took a serious tone.
Han Che said, "My second uncle's restaurant recently redistributed its equity, because our family provided more than a dozen new dishes at once, and then they used our technology as a stake.
Now our family's share in the restaurant has reached 55%, and the rest of them each hold 15%. Everyone works in the restaurant, and in addition to the corresponding salary they receive every month,
Then at the end of the year, dividends will be distributed according to everyone’s proportion.”
After Xiang Jin heard this, he couldn't help but joked on the other end of the phone, "Okay, your family has now reached the point where it controls the restaurant. Work hard and try to expand the store as soon as possible, and then make a lot of money."
of.
And you still have a long way to go. From now on, you and your second uncle will be the actual helmsmen of this restaurant. All the operating conditions and decision-making power of the restaurant will be determined by your uncle and nephew. The others will only enjoy the benefits at the end of the year.
Dividends, so you have a heavy responsibility."
Han Che smiled very happily on the other end of the phone, "I want to lend you some good words, I want to lend you some good words. Well, your family is building a house. I don't know what gift to give you. In the end, my second uncle said
I’ll just give you a red envelope. If your family is short of any small items, it’s convenient to buy them yourself. I’ve already called Yan Chen for the money and asked him to hand it over to you.”
"Isn't it? You are too polite," Xiang Jin felt helpless, with a complicated look on his face.
Han Che said, "You're welcome, it's just a small congratulation. My second uncle and the others originally wanted to buy those recipes from you, but I said you wouldn't agree, so they used the restaurant
I have given you a small red envelope in my name to express their gratitude and congratulations to you."
Xiang Jin suddenly had mixed emotions, "Oh, you guys are like this, I don't even know what to say. Okay, then I'll accept it. Say hello to the uncles for me and say thank you."
.”
"OK!"
"Then what's there to say? You'll die without me?" Xiang Jin followed.
"No, just hang up. Oh, by the way, my family runs a bookstore. If you and your sister have any materials or books that you need to buy, you can contact me and I will send them to you then."
"OK, thanks!"
Xiang Jin hung up the phone, and then she saw Yan Chen holding a stack of hundreds of rolls and handed it to her, "This six hundred yuan was given to you by Han Che and his uncles in the name of the restaurant. This is
The hundred dollars represents Han Che."
Xiang Jin nodded, then reached out to take it, "But I feel like I owe a big favor."
Yan Chen comforted her and said, "No, the profit generated by the vegetable houses you gave them is much greater than the 600 yuan. In the city, they estimate that they can earn back the 600 yuan in a little more than a week."
, so you don’t have to feel embarrassed.”
"Yeah," Xiang Jin nodded.
She has a lot of cash on hand now. She got 600 yuan from selling a gold chain this morning, and now she has received a total of 700 yuan from Han Che and his second uncle. It seems that she will still lead Xiang Lan to the town.
It only costs a little money to buy two sets of clothes, so as not to prevent her from looking forward to it every day and running to her at every turn. If it weren't for her clothes,
It was too short and too small, which meant that all of her clothes were almost white after being washed, and her shoes were almost full of holes. Xiang Jin's ears almost felt like calluses, so she decided to go.
Grant her that wish, lest she develop a bad habit of nagging and nagging now that she is young.
