"What kind of crap is this? What does it do?" Qiao Zuwang asked with a dark face.
Qiao Simei also looked at the strange-shaped object with curiosity. She said it looked like an itch scratcher, but it wasn't that long, and it didn't have a scratching hook. She said it looked like a Walkman, but it was too small and had no space.
The tape is placed, and there is obviously a handle, so it should be held by hand.
Under the confused gazes of the whole family, Qiao Erqiang took the strange thing in his hand, pressed a button with his thumb, and began to cover it up with his face.
"This is called an electric shaver. It's specially used for shaving. All foreigners use this to shave."
When Qiao Zuwang heard that it was used for shaving, he was a little dismissive. It was just for shaving. When he went to a barber shop, he shaved it for free. But when he heard that foreigners used this to shave, he immediately became interested.
Here comes the spirit.
He grabbed the electric shaver and tried it in front of the mirror. Not sure if it was a psychological effect or if it really worked, Qiao Zuwang made gestures in front of the mirror.
"Well, this foreigner's thing is different. It shaves quickly and cleanly."
As he said that, Qiao Zuwang didn't forget to ask: "Second Qiang, how much does it cost? Is it expensive?"
"It's not much, maybe two hundred yuan."
Wei Shuying raised her voice several times when she heard this: "What? Just such a little thing, it costs two hundred yuan?"
Qiao Sanli and Qiao Simei couldn't help but be speechless. You must know that their mother's salary for a year's work is only 400 yuan, which is enough to buy two of these things? What if they knew that the Walkman in their hands was an original Sony product?
, each one is close to a thousand yuan, and your hands will probably feel weak.
This is why Qiao Erqiang bought these things after his consumption outlook was greatly impacted after leaving Pengcheng. Otherwise, Qiao Simei would probably only receive a few celebrity pictorials at most.
When Qiao Zuwang heard that such a gadget was so expensive, he immediately protected it against his chest, fearing that Wei Shuying would snatch it away.
"Bring it here, you don't need such a good thing for shaving, so let the second strongman take it back and return it."
Qiao Zuwang didn't want to take that trick, he still expected to show off this thing to his fair-weather friends.
"Retreat wherever you go. We are all back to Jinling. Well, I won't come back for dinner if I have something else to do in the afternoon. You can eat by yourself."
As he said that, Qiao Zuwang ran out on a cane. The speed was not much slower than a normal person, but Wei Shuying was stunned and did not stop him.
"You kid, you are such a waste of money..."
Wei Shuying stared at her second son. The joy of having just received the woolen coat instantly turned into distress. Suddenly, she thought of a question.
"Where did you get the money to buy us these things?"
"These are all paid by Brother Hao. Didn't I still have money with him before?"
After Qiao Erqiang finished speaking, he suddenly said seriously: "Mom, I have to discuss something with you."
"What's going on?" Wei Shuying asked suspiciously when seeing her son being so solemn.
"I plan to resign."
"What?"
"Second brother, are you crazy? Don't you want such a good job?"
"Yes, that is an iron rice bowl that no one can ask for! Second brother, don't you have a fever?"
Wei Shuying felt that her blood was rising, she was dizzy, and almost fell down. Seeing this, Qiao Erqiang quickly helped her sit down, but Wei Shuying pushed her away angrily.
Helpless, Qiao Erqiang had no choice but to explain.
"Mom, I want to resign, but I have found a new job."
Qiao Simei blinked and asked suspiciously: "Second brother, do you want to be self-employed?"
Qiao Sanli saw that Wei Shuying's face became even more ugly, so she quickly pulled her sister to stop her from adding fuel to the fire.
"It's not a self-employed business, it's a Hong Kong-funded enterprise that wants to build a factory in Jinling. They want to acquire our second electromechanical factory. After they go there, the entire technology will be under my control."
These words were naturally taught by Qin Hao to Qiao Erqiang. If Qin Hao wanted to acquire the Second Mechanical and Electrical Factory, the brand of Hong Kong-funded enterprises was the key. Even Qin Hao himself had to pretend to be the general manager of Haoran Technology's mainland region.
, the fewer people know this truth, the better.
"What kind of Hong Kong-funded enterprise is this? Is it reliable?" Wei Shuying immediately breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that her son was not going to be a self-employed person, but she still asked uneasily.
This time Qiao Simei finally provided an assist.
"Mom, it's reliable. I heard people say that this Hong Kong-funded company not only has high wages, but also good benefits. You can get two days off a week, and you can even be sent to Hong Kong or even go abroad."
"By the way, second brother, if you go to their place, how much salary will they give you?"
Qiao Simei has already begun to think in her mind. After her second brother changed jobs, his salary increased, and her pocket money could also increase.
"You only know money." Qiao Sanli poked her sister's forehead.
Wei Shuying frowned slightly: "But I heard that foreign companies are not as reliable as state-owned companies."
"They give me a salary of five hundred yuan a month."
As soon as Qiao Erqiang finished speaking, Wei Shuying almost fell off her chair. She looked at her second son in disbelief, thinking she had heard wrongly.
"Wow, second brother, you are going to get rich!" Qiao Simei hugged Qiao Erqiang's arm and rubbed her face against him, like a kitten trying to please its master.
Qiao Sanli's mind was also confused. Five hundred yuan was equivalent to a year and a half of her mother's salary, and it was only one month. It was six thousand yuan a year. If she worked for two years, she would have a household worth ten thousand yuan!
"You, did you hear that correctly?" Wei Shuying sat upright with Qiao Erqiang's help.
"It's absolutely true, and this is just the basic salary, there are bonuses as well."
"How much will the prize be?"
"About a year's salary."
Wei Shuying's butt tilted again and she almost fell to the ground again. She had never seen so much money in her life.
........
On the other side, Qiao Zuwang was walking along with an electric razor. When he saw an acquaintance, he stopped and used the razor to shave his face.
"Hey, Lao Qiao, what are you doing? Your face was scratched, or are you suffering from itchy hemorrhoids?"
In the past, Qiao Zuwang would have quarreled with each other, but today he was in a good mood and did not care about these "country bumpkins".
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading! "Look at your unseen look. Do you have hemorrhoids on your face? Do you see it? This is called an electric shaver. All foreigners use this."
When the neighbors heard that foreigners were using it, they became interested and came closer.
"What is this thing for? Why do you always rub it on your face?"
Qiao Zuwang raised his chin proudly: "You don't understand, this is specially used for shaving."
"Look, with just such a light shave, the beard falls off. It's so clean."
The other party blinked: "Hey, I've been making trouble for a long time. It's just a shaver. I thought it was a rare object."
"How much did it cost?"
"Two hundred yuan. My son bought it for me from abroad. It is purely imported."
"It's just such a crappy thing. Two hundred? If you're crazy, just buy it. If you add another hundred, you can buy a black and white TV."
"Hey, you don't know the difference. TV sets are everywhere. Have you seen this thing?"
"That's not true, but to be honest, he is just a shaver. I go to have my head shaved once every half month, and he only charges me 20 cents. Good guy, how many times can you shave your head with these two hundred yuan?
What do you think?"
Qiao Zuwang was furious: "You old man, what do you know? This is for foreigners, so it's not bad. I don't know how to talk to you."
Qiao Zuwang, who failed to show off, was so angry that he walked away on crutches and continued to look for the person who knew the goods.
As a result, for the whole afternoon, Qiao Zuwang not only did not enjoy the envious and jealous eyes of others, but instead received a blank stare, which made him curse secretly in anger.
"Why would this second-strong guy buy such a flashy thing?"
If the electric shaver hadn't cost two hundred yuan to buy, Qiao Zuwang would have almost smashed it.
........
On the other side, Qin Hao also brought gifts to Wu Guihua and Qin Xianglan.
In addition to a woolen coat, Wu Guihua also had a bottle of hand cream, while Qin Xianglan had the same Sony Walkman as Qiao Sanli and the others.
At the same time, Qin Hao also told them that he had joined a Hong Kong-funded company and served as the general manager.
Wu Guihua had no doubts about this. After all, in her eyes, her son was a top student at Jinling University, a proud son of the emperor, and he would definitely be a leader after he graduates in the future.
"Although this job is good, don't delay your studies. I heard that Yicheng and Qi Weimin are preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination..."
Qin Hao smiled and shook his head: "Forget it about the postgraduate entrance examination, a college diploma is enough now. Don't worry, I have completed my credits. I don't need to go to class after school starts. I can just finish the exam and submit my graduation thesis."
"Well, you always have your own ideas. I haven't graduated from elementary school, so I definitely don't know as much as you. As long as you don't regret it." Wu Guihua sighed, feeling that her son had really grown up.
After talking about the business, Wu Guihua suddenly said seriously to Qin Hao.
"By the way, in the past few days since you left, that Sun Xiaomo came to our house again, helping with housework and asking for help. You and her..."
When Sun Xiaomo was mentioned, Qin Xianglan pursed her lips. Originally, her mother thought she was not diligent enough. After Sun Xiaomo came, Wu Guihua even ignored her in comparison.
"Look at this girl, and then look at you, how will you be able to get married in the future?"
Qin Xianglan was naturally dismissive: "Huh, I won't get on the pole like her. My brother hasn't even had anything to do with her yet. It's so embarrassing to be so fawning."
Wu Guihua was so angry that she almost whipped her with a bamboo stick, but it was Qiao Sanli who persuaded the mother and daughter to leave. From then on, Qin Xianglan never got angry when she looked at Sun Xiaomo.
"Well, I will go to their house tomorrow and I will bring her something."
When Qin Xianglan heard this, she held Qin Hao's hand sourly: "Brother, why did you bring something to that little goblin? Show me what you brought."
Wu Guihua pretended to fight and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? I might be your sister-in-law in the future."
"Huh, I don't want her to be my sister-in-law." Qin Xianglan said coquettishly to Qin Hao: "Brother, you can marry anyone, just don't marry her, okay?"
"Little girl, please stop meddling in adults' business." Qin Hao jumped on his sister's forehead angrily.
Qin Xianglan was so angry that she put down Qin Hao's arm and ran out of the door. She didn't forget to turn around and stamp her feet: "Humph, I will be sixteen soon, how can I be younger!"
Wu Guihua looked at her daughter's leaving figure and sighed with emotion: "In a blink of an eye, this girl will graduate from technical secondary school next year, your damn dad has been dead for more than ten years, and I am getting old too."
Qin Xianglan turned left when she went out and came to complain to her best friend Qiao Sanli.
Qiao Sanli couldn't help but feel sad when she heard this: "Actually, that Sun Xiaomo may not be as bad as you said. Maybe Brother Hao likes this."
"It's impossible. I know my brother best. He doesn't like little fairies who pretend to be delicate. He likes the kind of gentle and generous ones the most...just like you."
Qin Xianglan's words made Qiao Sanli both ashamed and happy. She slapped the other party angrily: "What are you talking about?"
"I'm not talking nonsense. My brother really likes that. You see, the female stars he likes are all like Zhao Yazhi and Sylvia Chang. It's a pity that you are a little younger and he grew up watching them. Otherwise, you would
My sister-in-law is quite suitable."
Qiao Sanli's expression kept changing with Qin Xianglan's words. She was quite happy at first, but after hearing the second half, the smile on her face became very bitter.
Yes, Qin Hao has watched her grow up since he was a child. Maybe the other party really just regards her as his sister?
"By the way, my brother said he is going to Sun Xiaomo's house tomorrow. Let's follow him quietly tomorrow and keep an eye on the little goblin to prevent my brother from being deceived by her."
"ah?"
"Ah, what, it's settled, I'll call you tomorrow."
Turning around, around nine o'clock in the morning, as soon as Qin Hao went out, Qin Xianglan eagerly pulled Qiao Sanli to follow him.
Naturally, their actions could not escape Qin Hao's eyes. Qin Hao pretended not to notice and let them follow behind.
When I arrived at Sun Xiaomo's house, I just knocked on the door. Within two seconds, Sun Xiaomo appeared in front of me with a smile on her face.
"You're back, come in quickly."
Qin Xianglan, who was hiding aside, couldn't help complaining to Qiao Sanli: "Do you think this little goblin is so shameless? You are back, and those who don't know think that my brother and her are already married."
Hearing this, Qiao Sanli's face became increasingly bitter.
In the room, Sun's mother was looking at Qin Hao with a smile on her face. The more she looked at him, the more satisfied she became.
It wasn't until Sun Xiaomo secretly tugged on her clothes that Mother Sun stopped looking at her son-in-law.
"Well, Xiao Qin, I heard that you are a top student at Jinling University?"
Qin Hao took a sip of water and nodded: "Well, I will be a senior when school starts soon."
"Then you are going to work soon? I heard that you college students are all rushing to get it. Do you have a favorite job?"
"Oh Mom, you keep asking questions here and there..."
"Let me ask what's wrong. Let's chat casually."
"This time I went to Pengcheng to interview and apply for a job at a Hong Kong-funded company, and I will start working soon."
Qin Hao's answer was beyond Sun's mother's expectations, and Sun Xiaomo was also surprised.
"You haven't graduated yet? If you start working now, won't it affect your graduation certificate?"
"No, I have already completed the credits. I will ask for a leave when the semester starts, take the exam on time next semester, and hand in my graduation thesis."
"Is this still possible? That's pretty good." Sun's mother said with a smile. If you work a year earlier, you will make money a year earlier. In her opinion, it is naturally a good thing.
"Oh Mom, you don't understand, what are you talking about?"
After Sun Xiaomo finished speaking, she turned to Qin Hao and said, "Let's go out for a walk."
