Chapter 99 Just a mere toy!

The two pushed open the door.

The copper bell hanging on it immediately made a crisp sound.

At the same time, a refreshing coolness mixed with the fragrance of wood wafted over.

Looking at the room full of mahogany furniture, Lin Qingsong inexplicably thought of the saying "birds of a feather flock together".

It's quite obvious that Qi Nan's friend's family is likely also made up of artisans.

Qi Nan seemed to see through Lin Qingsong's thoughts and said softly, "My friend's family has a long history of master craftsmen in the Imperial Workshops."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingsong finally understood why Qi Nan's friend's family could possess a complete set of sacrificial vessels from the Imperial Workshop.

So that's how it all started.

Just then, a woman in a cheongsam slowly descended from the second floor. In a clear voice, she said, "Seventh Brother, it's been a long time! You seem to have gotten even taller!"

"Haha, Xiaoyun, I feel like you've become even more beautiful." Qi Nan said with a smile to the shop owner named Xiaoyun, then turned to Lin Qingsong and Xiaoyun and said:
"Come, come, let me introduce you. This is Xiaoyun, Changyun, who is also the owner of this shop."

"Old Lin, Lin Qingsong, Xiaoyun, you should have heard me talk about you. You're the most awesome agent in our company!"

"Hello, Mr. Lin." Chang Yun looked at Lin Qingsong with a hint of curiosity, then extended her hand politely and said, "I often hear Brother Qi mention you."

"Hello Mr. Chang, I've been rambling on today."

"It's alright, let's have a cup of tea first." Chang Yun smiled and led the two to a tea table nearby.

"Good, good, good, Old Lin, you're in luck! Xiao Yun is really good at making tea!" Qi Nan said with a hint of anticipation.

Chang Yun began brewing tea.

Lin Qingsong then realized that Qi Nan was right.

After a series of dazzling techniques, he picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and inexplicably felt that it was indeed a bit different from the tea he had just tasted.

I finished the tea.

The jade thumb ring ended up in Chang Yun's hands, and Lin Qingsong's bank account also received an extra 100,000 yuan.

I have an appointment at noon.

After saying goodbye to Qi Nan and Chang Yun, he got into a car and left.

The Bund.

Bixiang, on the southern slope.

Lin Qingsong looked at the dense array of honors displayed at the entrance of the store and couldn't help but nod.

Although he had long since demystified the Michelin Guide, the food at this one-Michelin-starred Hangzhou restaurant was indeed quite good.

His favorite dish, braised pork with preserved mustard greens, is especially renowned.

"How many people are in your party, sir? Do you have an appointment?"

"I have a reservation, my surname is Gao." Lin Qingsong said as he stepped into the restaurant.

"Okay, Mr. Gao has arrived. Please follow me."

Following the waiter, Lin Qingsong admired the old-fashioned yet modern interior design and soon spotted Gao Xiaoxing.

Gao Xiaoxing saw it too, and he couldn't help but stand up with a smile to greet him, "Brother Lin, over here."

"Glad, you chose a great place!" Lin Qingsong first put down the records he had brought from the coffee shop, then sat down opposite him and said with a smile, "The braised pork, yellow croaker rolls with tofu skin, and stir-fried eel with shrimp here are absolutely delicious."

"I had to ask a few friends before I found this shop," Gao Xiaoxing said with a smile, then said with a face full of gratitude, "Brother Lin, the prescription you gave me before was really useful. Now I understand why I couldn't be with Xiao Li before."

"Oh?"

"Tell me why."

Lin Qingsong keenly sensed Gao Xiaoxing's change. He no longer used the term "goddess," and it wasn't that he couldn't win over Xiao Li, but rather that they couldn't be together.

Although they express the same meaning, the underlying implications are quite different.

This shows that he has demystified Xiao Li!
"Because I'm too much of a simp!"

"I've noticed from chatting with the technicians lately that some of them send you messages non-stop every day, which is really annoying. Sometimes I just want to delete them."

"But sometimes, when I can't book the technician I want, I'll look for the technicians I've blocked. They not only don't get angry, but they also seem very happy."

“One time it suddenly dawned on me that I was just like those technicians who often messaged me.”

"And those technicians who don't message me often, I still go to see them all the time, just like Xiao Li's ex-boyfriends."

"After that, I summarized the commonalities among these technicians."

"We discovered that besides their excellent skills and good looks, they have another crucial point!"

At this point, he looked at Lin Qingsong and paused.

Clearly, after being trained by the technicians during this period, he has learned to interact with people when chatting.

"What is it?" Lin Qingsong politely asked.

“They are clients, they have many clients.” Gao Xiaoxing sighed, “I realized at that time that if I wanted to attract Xiao Li, in addition to having hard and soft skills, I should also show that I was very popular with women.”

He's not actually stupid; he just hasn't had much contact with girls before, which is why he's become such a simp.

Now, under the influence of so many beautiful female technicians, they are slowly coming to their senses.

If you hang yourself from a crooked tree, you really will hang yourself.

Why not try exploring the entire forest? Lin Qingsong felt inexplicably gratified, especially after Gao Xiaoxing said, "Attract Xiao Li."

Finally, it's not chasing anymore!

exactly!
The best way for a man to win a woman's heart is not by chasing her, but by attracting her.

There's a saying that even a good woman fears a persistent suitor.

But this statement also refers to good women. Women like Shen Xingyu, who seem unapproachable at first glance, are the ones who are afraid of persistent suitors.

Because most men are afraid to pursue outstanding girls like Shen Xingyu, they instead pursue girls they think are easier to pursue, like Xiao Li.

Therefore, for a slightly ordinary girl like Xiao Li, she needs to rely on attraction.

For an outstanding girl like Shen Xingyu, besides attracting her, persistent pursuit is also effective.

Because they are similar to Gao Xiaoxing, they have not had much contact with boys since childhood, and few boys dare to take the initiative to pursue them. Suddenly encountering someone who is persistent and persistent might have a surprising effect.

Xiao Li, on the other hand, has a wealth of experience in dealing with such persistent pestering because she has been targeted by so many people. If you are too obsequious, no matter how outstanding you are, you will only blend into the crowd.

During the meal, Lin Qingsong noticed that Gao Xiaoxing might have really woken up completely; her whole demeanor was different from before.

He felt a strange sense of accomplishment.

at noon.

Lin Qingsong put down his chopsticks, opened Xianyu (a second-hand marketplace app), and bought the used Mercedes-Benz mentioned in the intelligence report.

The price is really not expensive. The price of a nearly new car that is about three years old is cut in half, and a used car is just over 150,000 yuan.

The mileage is almost negligible.

In the seller's words, his father's company had too many cars and didn't need them at all, so he might as well sell them.

every time.

The car seller is a rich second-generation heir who is making money in his own way.

The most straightforward approach is to sell items that the company doesn't need for the time being.

Lin Qingsong couldn't comment on this kind of behavior of selling off one's ancestral land without a care in the world.

But he was genuinely happy to have gotten this bargain!
The only pity is that I don't have a Shanghai license plate under my name, so after the auction, I can only use the license plate from my hometown.

Now that I have money, I can go and buy a Shanghai license plate for future use.

Anyway, this thing is only worth 100,000 yuan, and I can just afford to bid on one of the jade thumb rings I sold today.

Across from him, Gao Xiaoxing asked curiously, and after learning that Lin Qingsong was buying a car, he was somewhat puzzled that Xianyu (a second-hand marketplace platform) could also sell cars.

But he readily agreed, saying, "Brother Lin, a friend of mine owns a car repair shop. After you buy your car, you can ask him to clean it for you and also check for any hidden problems."

"Okay." Although the system said that this was a car for personal use and would just sit idle in the garage after purchase.

But most things are less likely to break down the longer they are used. This car has been sitting for so long, it might be damaged. It would be better to have it serviced.

As the meal came to a close, Lin Qingsong thought of Niu Hao from the company and said to Gao Xiaoxing, "Gao Xing, I'll introduce you to a friend in a while."

Old Niu is a decent person; he'll lend a hand if he can.

"Okay!" Gao Xiaoxing didn't know which friend Lin Qingsong wanted to introduce, but she readily agreed.

After leaving the restaurant, Lin Qingsong took a taxi to pick up the Mercedes he had just bought.

No one knows where that rich kid found his connections, from the moment Lin Qingsong went there to sign the contract until he drove the car away.

The whole process only took two or three hours, including the waiting time for applying for a temporary license plate.

Although temporary license plates are only valid for 30 days, after which you either need to reapply or get a permanent license plate.

But Lin Qingsong will be going back home this month, so he can just get a license plate from his hometown to tide him over.

Then I'll change it after I get a Shanghai license plate.

"Hey bro, come back to me next time you need to buy a car!" The rich second-generation with a rooster-like hairstyle said with a grin, "There are still quite a few cars in the old man's company's garage. I'll check it out and clear them all out in a while."

"You're really something." What could Lin Qingsong say? He could only point to the Porsche 911 under the man's butt and say, "I'm not planning to buy the car from your dad's company, but if you want to sell this one, you can contact me!"

"Hey, I don't need it, why would I sell it?" The rich kid wasn't annoyed. He patted his car and said with a smile, "But if you want to buy a sports car, I actually have a friend who might be selling one soon. I'll contact you then."

"..." Lin Qingsong said with a hint of speechlessness, "You actually believe I can afford it!"

He found this rich kid interesting and wanted to tease him.

Who would buy a sports car for no reason? It's just a big toy, not practical at all!

Especially in Shanghai's weather, you should use the convertible top as little as possible, otherwise you'll end up with a mouthful of dust.

"Haha, what if!"

"Okay, then tell your friend to save it for me, just in case I buy it!"

"Keep!"

After saying goodbye to this rather interesting rich second-generation, Lin Qingsong drove directly to Xiang Jia's house.

The hotel was really not interesting.

It's still more comfortable at home.

As for the child, Xiang Jia sent him to his maternal grandfather's house this afternoon.
