Chapter 196: Bring your daughter-in-law a flower

Gu Chen smiled on hearing this.

'This price may be a bit high in the small county of Huang County, but what about the entire Haicheng? I heard that there are quite a few high-end residential areas, villa areas, and quite a few Western-style houses in Haicheng. I heard that there are quite a few white-collar workers living in the city centre, and their salary levels have reached more than a thousand yuan, and even two thousand.'

This is what he saw with his own eyes in his previous life.

He worked there as a security guard and still has some understanding of those office workers.

The office buildings there are very tall, and the people coming out of them are all dressed in suits and leather shoes, driving luxury cars. The ladies are all wearing blouses, short skirts and high heels, looking vibrant and energetic.

A salary of 100 yuan a month naturally makes one feel that 14 yuan is not enough, but what about 1,000 yuan?

Fourteen yuan is completely affordable for them, and it's not even worth thinking about.

In my previous life, I just lamented the injustice of fate, but in this life, Gu Chen's thinking has changed, and that is to take money out of their pockets and take their lives to the next level.

Li Aifang on the other end of the phone took a deep breath and said excitedly, 'Yes! How come I didn't think of that!'

Now she is even more grateful that she is not competing with this person.

Otherwise, she might have lost badly. His mind is really very agile, and having such an opponent is really terrifying.

Because you can never tell what he might do.

If you sell in Haicheng, as Gu Chen said, in high-end residential areas, villa areas, and office building areas, although sales will still be limited, you can definitely sell for 15 yuan, and if you're brave, you can even sell for 16.

That means you still have a profit, and as long as there's a profit, then all problems are solved!

He could even buy his own cherries in Huangcheng without any hurry, take the cherries from Gu Chen and sell them directly in Haicheng, maximising his profits!

This was a really good idea.

'You've said too much. How about fourteen? There's just one more problem,' continued Li Aifang. "If I really go to Haicheng, I'm afraid that 600 to 700 catties might not be enough.'

Gu Chen smiled and said, "As long as you can take all of my cherries each time, I don't mind being your warehouse.'

For him, it doesn't matter who buys it.

Although he could go to Haicheng and sell it himself for a higher price, right now he has more than 100 mu of land waiting to be planted.

Finding a wholesaler is undoubtedly the best option, saving time and effort.

Li Aifang was simply amazed.

'In that case, that's really great! Do you think we need to sign a contract or something? How about this: I'll invite your family to dinner tonight, and we can talk about it in more detail?'

Gu Chen smiled, 'No need for dinner. Just give me your address, and I'll drive over with the cherries first thing in the morning. We can talk then.'

He still had to go buy seeds and pick up his daughter-in-law and child today.

He didn't have time to eat.

Besides, Ji Pianran was still weak, and he had to continue nourishing her. Outside food was definitely not as good as his own cooking.

Li Aifang smiled in relief.

'That's fine. We'll hand over the money and the cherries, and we'll discuss the rest when we meet!'

Gu Chen had really solved her big problem.

She had a hunch that if he started a business, in a few years he would definitely become a famous local boss!

'Oh, and there's something else I need to say,' Li Aifang continued.

'What?' Gu Chen was curious.

'Thank you, I really owe you a lot this time!' Li Aifang said sincerely.

Gu Chen smiled, 'It's a mutual benefit.'

In fact, Li Aifang had also really helped herself this time.

She went shopping and only delivered the goods herself, which saved a lot of time.

And with the time saved, Gu Chen believed that she could definitely create more wealth.

For some people, time is just time, which can be used for nothing but consumption.

But for Gu Chen, it is money, something that can be turned into cash.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Chen turned the car around and drove towards the pedestrian street. Since the problem with the cherries had been solved, he should go and keep his daughter-in-law and children company.

He had already missed them a little after just a short while.

He wondered if Ji Bianran had been cheated on and if Tangtang missed him.

The pedestrian street was not far from the Ji family warehouse, less than twenty minutes away, and Gu Chen arrived at his destination.

When he parked the car, he happened to meet a little girl holding a single rose in her hand. It was a beautiful rose, still in bud.

When she saw Gu Chen get out of the car, she hurried up to him and spoke carefully.

'Brother, would you like to buy a flower?'

Gu Chen frowned, a little confused.

He didn't realise that this girl was selling flowers.

If she hadn't spoken, he really would have thought that someone had given her the flower, after all, it was the only one left.

The girl could see his uncertainty, and there was a hint of nervousness in her smile.

'Today is the weekend, business is good, and this is the only one left.'

She had been buying flowers here all day, and many people had been impatient with her, so she was afraid that Gu Chen would be the same.

But in order to make a living, she had no choice.

Gu Chen looked at the flowers in her hand, and a flicker of hesitation passed through his deep eyes.

It wasn't that he didn't want to buy flowers for his wife, it was just that there was only one, and it looked a bit stingy no matter how you looked at it.

It looks like she just bought it on the street, without any sincerity.

Seeing Gu Chen hesitate, the young girl immediately explained, 'Brother, it's very cheap, only two yuan. I need to go to school tomorrow, so please buy it for me, so that I can get enough money for a week's living expenses.'

Her family's conditions are not good. Because her family is from the countryside, she can only live in the dormitory when she comes to the city to go to school. However, this way, the expenses are really not small. No matter how she saves every week, she still needs 15 yuan for living expenses.

She was dressed in ordinary clothes, and the sneakers on her feet were old and could no longer be washed, having turned a slight yellow. She was a little thin, and at first glance looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old.

Gu Chen felt softhearted. After all, she was just a child, and at such a young age she was earning her own living expenses, so she should be encouraged.

He felt ten yuan out of his pocket and handed it to the little girl.

With a faint smile, he said lightly, 'The flowers are very pretty. You don't need to keep the change.'

After saying this, he took the flowers from the little girl's hands, lifted his foot and left on his own.

The little girl was stunned. She didn't expect Gu Chen to actually give her ten yuan, which was more than enough to buy five flowers!

She nervously squeezed the money in her hand and turned around to call out to him, 'Brother, wait!'

After saying this, she ran over in two steps, 'Brother, this is too much money, two yuan is enough.'

She was very grateful for Gu Chen's kindness, but ten yuan was really too much for her to accept.

She took out eight yuan from her pocket and tried to hand it to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen waved his hand, 'Take it, don't think too much, I also have a daughter.'

As parents, they will always be moved when they see this kind of scene.

Gu Chen was no exception.

Perhaps it was personal, but he preferred heartwarming stories to pretentious ones. If you don't feel well, just bear with it.
