Chapter 644: Number one principle of being a human
Lin Qing He went back in ’87. On a trip with Zhou Qing Bai and little Mi Mi. Although they only stayed for one day, it was still going back to their hometown.
Second Brother had really aged. It can’t called aging. People became like that because people at that age were overworked and tired. He looked tanner and older. This was a common occurrence in the village. Second Brother was no exception.
He was only two years older than Zhou Qing Bai, but the appearance difference seemed to be over ten years old.
Even Eldest Brother looked younger than Second Brother. Because in recent years, the children had grown up and were all very happy. He was left with a youngest son to provide for. His daughters and son occasionally sent money back. It was really light. Life was quite comfortable and didn’t have so many mind-wrecking matters.
Unlike second branch. It was either a miscarriage or daughter committing shameful acts. One after another. Nonstop trouble.
What’s more, there wasn’t much money. The family was indeed poor. The food wasn’t very good.
When Lin Qing He called Eldest Sister-in-law, she heard Eldest Sister-in-law mentioning that she pitied Second Brother and called him over to have a meal at home. His behavior was like he had been starved for a long time.
Lin Qing He also had some sympathy for Second Brother. He wasn’t a terrible guy, but the wife he married wasn’t a good match.
In the afternoon, Lin Qing He drove out with Xue Mei Li in tow. Taking a detour, she fetched Zhou Xiao Mei and Mother Weng. The four women came to the hot spring together and were introduced to each other.
They were all straightforward people. After a while, they chatted together.
Especially when this hot spring was really comfortable. Xue Mei Li experienced it for the first time. She wondered if there was any in Hai City. But even if there was, she hadn’t been there. This time was quite an experience.
They also served milk. All in all, the service was top-notch.
Jiang Geng came back in the evening. When he came back, his mom hadn’t come back with his godmother. His grandmother was present. He learned that his mom had also came here and went to the hot spring with his godmother. Jaing Geng grinned.
When they got back, he jollily said, “Godmother, you take my mom out to enjoy like this. After that, she will be unaccustomed when she returns to Hai City.”
“Come whenever you want. Transportation here is very convenient. Call ahead and I will pick you up if I have time.” Lin Qing He turned to Xue Mei Li.
Xue Mei Li was delighted and merrily replied: “I got to see the next time when old Jiang is free. When he is, I will bring him over.”
“When he come here, I’ll get Qing Bai to take him around.” Lin Qing He smiled.
Then she said to Zhou Gui Lai: “Take your grandparents and your grandpa Jiang and grandma Jiang over tomorrow.”
“No need to go. We have been there the last time.” Old Mister Jiang said.
“Yes, that’s right. It’s too expensive to go to that one. One soak is enough as an experience. No need to go every time we come over. Tomorrow we plan to go to the Great Wall.” Old Madam Jiang followed.
“Tomorrow, I will take you guys over. Mom, haven’t you been wanting to go for a long time? Let’s all go together.” Jiang Geng jollily spoke.
“Remember to bring the camera and take a few more photos. I will send it over after I wash it out.” Zhou Gui Lai stated.
“Okay!” Jiang Geng smiled.
So old Mister Jiang, old Madam Jiang, and Xue Mei Li’s itinerary were handed over to Jiang Geng. When Jiang Geng went to study, so the driving was left to Third.
After staying for a few days, Xue Mei Li had to go back. Old Mister Jiang and old Madam Jiang also went back with her. Despite Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai sincere offer for them to stay, they didn’t stay longer. They were happy about playing here for a few days.
Xue Mei Li was back in her home in Hai City and her excitement hadn’t passed away yet.
Chief Jiang said, “Since you like it so much, why don’t you stay a few more days.”
“Isn’t because I’m worried about you father and daughter? If you came with me, I won’t worry.” Xue Mei Li responded.
Chief Jiang grinned, “How can I have time?” After hearing his wife’s praises, he wanted to go and take a look. He went there once, it was more than ten years ago. Since then, he hadn’t been there.
“Arrange it. We can go together at some time later. That side’s got enough space and have many guest rooms. Only after going, did I find out how much our stinky boy doesn’t want to come back. His godmother’s side’s condition is too wonderful” Xue Mei Li amusedly scolded.
Actually, they were still living in the apartment building before. Before their son moved there, he had went there as soon as he was on vacation.
For nothing else other than the atmosphere in his godmother’s house. The family was merry and open-minded. Even when it was crowded, he still liked going over.
“Let him stay there if he don’t want to come back. His godfather won’t treat him badly.” Chief Jiang replied.
Xue Mei Li began to tell him where she had gone to play in the past few days. Chief Jiang listened to her speak without an ounce of impatience. It stirred up little Jiang Yu, who was still working on her homework.
Halfway through, she couldn’t bear it anymore. Declaring that the next time Third Brother came over, she would go to the capital with him.
“Your brother is enough to trouble your auntie at that side and you want to follow. Stay here. But if I go again next time, I will take you with me.” Xue Mei Li said.
Like this, Jiang Yu was somewhat comforted.
Back to Lin Qing He’s side. On the second day after old Mister Jiang and the others returned, she took Third and set off to the south.
This time they came to buy tea. And also planning to make a long-term cooperation. She had to personally negotiate this herself. Her son wasn’t bad, but he was young. He got lots to learn.
So after Zhou Gui Lai witnessed his mom’s glib tongue and how the major tea farmer was very convinced by her.
In fact, the tea market business at this time was doing relatively poor. Some of course were very expensive, but many weren’t selling well.
Lin Qing He got the first movers advantage. What’s more, because of her development over the past two years, she had really brought considerable profits to many tea farmers who were contracted to grow tea trees.
This was a very big sale channel. The main reason was that Lin Qing He shown enough sincerity. She was also an major customer from the capital and the sale happened direct sales. There was no middleman to earning the difference. She personally came.
So the price she given this side wasn’t low. Tea farmers weren’t getting oppressed. Lin Qing He also dug a hole for the middlemen. She told the tea farmers to ask around. If anyone was higher than her family’s price, then just sell it to them. No need to hold back.
She dared to open her mouth cause there were requirements. The quality of tea must be good. Her side will strictly inspect it. If it’s not good, the cooperation will be terminated. One must keep their word in business. This was the number one principle of being a human and in doing business!
Zhou Gui Lai learned as he followed his mom. He watched the tea farmers and his mom become good friends who talked about everything. He couldn’t help but feel admiration.
Once again, he emotionally remarked, if his dad hadn’t had a high salary back then, he would definitely not be able to marry his mom.
