Chapter 87 Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other

Chapter 87 Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other
Maybe buy one get one free is popular these days. The next afternoon, Mrs. Zhang’s niece found the store. When Xian Yaowen rushed home from the factory, she saw two people.

One is Li Qiang, who is just sixteen years old. He does not have many Chinese features in appearance, but is full of Western flavor. However, from his father's generation to his great-grandparents, no one is a foreigner, which is probably an atavism.

Regardless of her bloodline, Xian Yaowen fell in love with her anyway. She was tall enough, had a face that could be hot or cold, and had a good sense of beauty both in motion and in both directions. At least God had appreciated the level of a model, so he made a decision on the spot. I was given a starting salary of 300 yuan and agreed to re-evaluate the salary in two months.

The new girl's name is Li Hailun, Mrs. Li's relative who turned eight corners. She has quite good looks. According to the current aesthetics, she can be included in the ranks of beauties. However, looks are not the focus for her because she wants to interview for a fashion design. division.

Her father once worked in the Central Bank, and her mother received higher education at Northeastern University. She herself is a graduate of the Political Science Department of North China United University. Since Hong Kong does not recognize mainland diplomas, she is currently just a typist. She heard the informant mention that China Garments is recruiting clothing Designer, she planned to come over and give it a try. Who knew that she happened to meet Li Qiang at Mrs. Li's place, so the two of them came over together.

Xian Yaowen also accepted it, but he was not a designer, but an intern, doing the work of a designer, and his salary was set according to the standards of an apprentice.

Give it a while first, and if you are not destined to be a designer, you may still be encouraged to become a model.

After meeting the two people, Xian Yaowen started running around again. He found an office for 4A Company on the fifth floor of Gloucester Street and rented two unused rooms at the Gasan Stadium of the South China Sports Association as the model's usual training venue. .

Then Zheng Yueying was asked to go out and find teachers for Du Juan and Li Qiang. There was no ready-made model teacher, so they looked in the direction of Liyuanxing. The body shape is all interoperable, and those from the theater troupe are fully qualified to be the first teachers.

Not to mention, Zheng Yueying searched twice and found Yu Zhanyuan, a little-known Peking opera actor. He couldn't get many opportunities to perform on stage in Hong Kong. He could only get some curry in movies starring his daughter Yu Suqiu, a movie actress. I heard that I had a part-time job as a teacher and the salary was pretty good, so we hit it off right away.

The modeling business started to work, and Xian Yaowen's crooked mind also started to work. He registered a separate company "Kenwalk" for the modeling business, which is the transliteration of the English "Catwalks". "Catwalk" means cat walk, plus "S", It is a stage specially used for catwalking. In layman’s terms, it is a T stage.

He also registered an official name "Grammy" for the model team, which literally means gramophone and does not have much connotation. Xian Yaowen took its transliteration "Grammy" and the full name is Grammy Model Team.

There were not many things to do, but it was very tedious to do each one. It was so busy that weeks passed.

In a blink of an eye, mid-March is here.

Xian Yaowen has been in Hong Kong for almost four months. He is as busy as a dog. He has not earned ten thousand yuan, but he has spent it like water.

Two minor things happened in the past week. The first workshop building was completely delivered, and the two new buildings at home were also roofed. He set off a few firecrackers for fun, and asked William Chen to run to Causeway Bay. Dakeng approached the owner to discuss the acquisition.

After three rounds of screening by Lin Xingliang, Zheng Yueying and himself, he finally found the best location to open a flagship store in Dakeng. Now he has to deal with the matter of buying the old building and rebuilding it.

As luck would have it, I happened to meet Nanyang Abo when he was buying an old building. The owner's business focus was in Singapore. There were two connected tenement buildings covering an area of ​​2300 square feet. After paying back the price several times, the owner finally settled for NT$32. acquisition.

This price was due to the fact that the owner was a woman, and she was famous for her red scarf. Xian Yaowen didn't have the nerve to bargain to the death, otherwise he could have cut off a thousand or several hundred dollars.

With the successful acquisition, China Garments completed another preparation before it soared into the sky.

……

There is an old saying that good fortune and misfortune depend on each other. Good things will be accompanied by bad things, and misfortune never comes alone.

On March 3, after dinner, Xian Yaowen was thinking about the architectural shape of the flagship store in his study, when Zheng Yueying knocked on the door and came in, holding a tea cup in both hands.

Xian Yaowen glanced at the tea cup on the desk and said to Zheng Yueying with a smile: "Are you going to drink it for me, or are you going to drink it for yourself? Are you going to have a long talk with me?"

Zheng Yueying did not answer, silently walked up to Xian Yaowen and knelt down with a plop.

"Sir, please have some tea."

Xian Yaowen frowned and said, "Last time you knelt down for me, you were relying on me. What do you mean this time? Are you making a big mistake, or are you saying goodbye?"

Zheng Yueying lowered her head and whispered, "Farewell."

As soon as he heard it was a farewell, Xian Yaowen took the tea cup held by Zheng Yueying, took a sip, put it on the desk, and said slowly: "It's a bit sudden. I know you will leave one day, but I always feel that that day It should be after you have fully fledged, but what's going on now? You have no money, but your total net worth is just over 10,000, what can you do if you leave?"

"When I was looking for a teacher a few days ago, I met an old acquaintance. He wanted me to come over and help him." As she said that, Zheng Yueying lowered her head, "I feel ashamed to be under my teacher's care."

"We met for the first time on December 1949, 12. Today is March 12, 1950. It adds up to a total of 3 days, 17 nights, and three months. It seems that I have come true. There is only one thing between us. Three months of fate." Xian Yaowen said, tapping his fingers on the desk a few times, "He, no need to ask, must be the one you love, right?"

"Yes."

"I've finished the tea. Stand up and talk." Xian Yaowen helped Zheng Yueying up and pushed him onto the seat opposite him. After walking back to his seat and sitting down, he continued: "I don't know much about love, and I don't have any My parting words to you in this regard are that I don’t worry about your career. I believe that you will be successful no matter what you do, and your life in the future will not be bad.

As long as you are rich and noble, you will never forget each other. When you get rich in the future, remember to give me a hand. Also, you can treat my place as your natal family. Move around more and don't get divided. "

Xian Yaowen's words were beautiful, but he immediately had the urge to slap himself in the mouth.

"I...I." Zheng Yueying hesitated for a while before speaking fluently, "He runs a canteen."

"How do you open the canteen?" Xian Yaowen immediately reacted as soon as he said the words, "Drug trafficking?"

"Yes, it is."

Xian Yaowen mentally praised himself a few times, breathed a few sighs of relief, calmed himself down, raised his finger and pointed at the clock on the wall, "Let's set the time back ten minutes and pretend that nothing happened just now." good?"

Zheng Yueying raised her head and revealed an ugly smile, "Sir, he knows my past. I also told him what happened on the way to Hong Kong. He doesn't mind."

Xian Yaowen rubbed his temples and sighed, "Well, you have given me a difficult problem and I don't know how to word it..." After a pause, Xian Yaowen continued: "After thinking about it, it's better to take care of yourself. The most appropriate thing is for us to give each other a hug and treat it as goodbye."

As soon as Xian Yaowen finished speaking, Zheng Yueying had already stood up and came to him. As soon as he stood up, she threw herself into his arms, holding him tightly with her hands, with tears in her eyes.

"Sir, thank you. Without you, my road in Hong Kong would not have been so smooth."

"Fool, you deserve everything."

Zheng Yueying's hands tightened, and tears overflowed from her eyes and fell on Xian Yaowen's chest.

The hug between the two lasted for a long time, and it might have lasted even longer if Su Lizhen hadn't knocked on the door.

There was a quick knock on the door, carrying Su Lizhen's words - a gentleman named Huang called to say there was something urgent.

He let go of his hand, and under Su Lizhen's gaze, he took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from the corners of Zheng Yueying's eyes, and patted her arm. After her mood calmed down, Xian Yaowen walked out of the study and went to the living room to answer the phone.

"Editor Huang, what's going on?"

Huang Zuqiang's urgent voice came from the other side of the phone, "Xian Shijun was beaten."

"Who is Xian Shijun?"

"Uh... Yan Jun, pen name is Shao Buer."

Just mention the pen name Xian Yaowen. He is the main writer of "Thirteen Yao" and the main content of this serial novel is written by him.

[Jin Lin violated the rules, so the title of the book was changed to Thirteen Yao. ]
"Where was he beaten?"

"Newspaper office."

"Talk about it."

"A man named Fei Xi in Sham Shui Po wanted to place an advertisement on Thirteen Yao, and Xian Shijun accepted him. Because the advertising space that Fei Xi wanted had been reserved by other chicken stalls for ten days, Xian Shijun asked Fei Xi to wait. Wait, who knows that Fei Xi is not willing to wait, shouting that he will see his advertisement in the newspaper tomorrow. Xian Shijun said a few words, which made Fei Xi angry for some reason and slapped him several times. "

"Is it heavy?"

"Lost a tooth."

"now what?"

"Fei Xi has left, leaving behind half a month's advertising expenses, a hundred yuan in medical expenses, and a sentence: 'My advertisement must be posted tomorrow, otherwise the Yan family will be kicked out.'"

Xian Yaowen held up the microphone and changed his ear, "Do you know which club you are from?"

"He Sheng and the boss of Sham Shui Po are in charge of chicken stalls and bone farms."

"I understand. You accompany Yan Jun to the Kowloon Walled City for dental treatment and a gold tooth. The newspaper company will pay the cost."

Huang Zuqiang hesitated for a while and said, "Fei Xi's side?"

"Take shelter from the limelight tomorrow morning, and I will solve this matter in the afternoon. At nine o'clock in the morning, ask Yan Jun to wait for me at the corner of Keelung Street, with a pen in hand, on time."

"Okay, I'll tell him."

"that's it."

After hanging up the phone, Xian Yaowen walked into the bedroom, sat on the bed, his face drooped.

He said it lightly just now, but this matter is not handled lightly at all. He doesn't have very good connections in the Sham Shui Po Police Station or the community. His only connections are Shi Lirong and Szeto Chi-yan, both of whom are just acquaintances. It's too late to establish a good relationship, not enough to be able to ask others for help, and the two people are too high-level, even if they can beg them, it would be overkill.

While he was thinking, Su Lizhen walked into the bedroom, put her arms around his neck, and sat down on his lap.

"Are you having trouble?"

"Ah."

"Is it troublesome?"

"Kind of."

Xian Yaowen leaned back with Su Lizhen, buried his head on her chest, and cleared his mind.

Su Lizhen took her hand out from under his neck, put her index finger on his temple and rubbed it gently, "As long as you have a good rest at night, you can leave your worries until tomorrow."
