Rebirth Starting as a Stock Market Enthusiast

Chapter 140 I'm talking about Shen Fei.

"Sit down, everyone sit down." Huang Dapeng placed the tea tray on the stone table, his movements somewhat clumsy but steady.

This cousin is honest, not good with words, but hardworking. It wasn't easy for him to build up this family business over the years in the transportation business.

He lifted the lid of the purple clay teapot, poured boiling water over it, and the tea leaves swirled around in the pot twice, releasing a refreshing aroma.

He poured water for Chen Lan and her aunt first, then it was Shen Fei and Shen Jianguo's turn.

When it was Xu Lu's turn, Huang Dapeng paused for a moment, then lowered the teapot spout slightly: "Lulu, have some tea."

"Thank you, Brother Peng." Xu Lu took the teacup, touched the warm cup with her fingers, and her voice was much more natural than before.

Huang Dapeng didn't say much. He picked up his cup, took a sip, and looked at Xu Lu with a slightly naive smile: "Why are you dressed so elegantly today? I just saw your uncle's car drive away from inside the house. Did he bring you money again?"

Xu Lu tightened her grip on the teacup, then shook her head: "No, I don't want it."

"I knew you'd be stubborn." Huang Dapeng grinned and turned to Shen Fei. "Feizi, don't let my job as your cousin fool you. I know all about our neighbors. Lulu is a girl with high aspirations, and she's really hardworking when it comes to dancing. I used to see her practicing in the yard all summer long."

Chen Lan laughed, "That's right. This girl may be stubborn, but she's sensible and ambitious. She takes care of her grandmother alone, and life isn't easy, but I've never heard her complain once."

Xu Lu blushed even more at being praised so openly by the two of them. She lowered her head and sipped her tea, not knowing how to respond.

Shen Fei listened quietly to his family, who were still by his side, healthy and safe, chatting and laughing. He felt that no amount of wealth in the world could compare to this moment.

As for Xu Lu's dance skills, he actually knew better than anyone else present. Shen Fei had personally filmed all of Xu Lu's videos during this period.

Shen Fei picked up his teacup, blew away the foam, and looked at Huang Dapeng: "Cousin, which route are you mainly working on now?"

"Hey, same old thing, mostly short-haul freight around Qingshui, occasionally taking orders from the city." Huang Dapeng put down his cup, pulled a crumpled pack of cigarettes from his pocket, glanced at Chen Yun and Chen Lan, then stuffed it back in. "Business is so-so, not bad, not too bad, not too bad either. Hey Fei, you have connections?"

"It's not really a connection, just an idea." Shen Fei put down his teacup and tapped his finger on the stone table. "Cousin, you're a reliable businessman, and the car is your own. Let's change our contact information; we might need your help with something later."

Huang Dapeng was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Why are you being so polite with me? If there's anything I can do to help you, just let me know."

"Here's the thing, my company's e-commerce business is about to launch," Shen Fei said directly. "As for logistics, I plan to take over the logistics center in Anyuan City myself. The volume might not be large at first, but it will definitely increase later. Cousin, you're familiar with transportation, and I thought it would be more reassuring to have someone from my own circle overseeing things."

This statement is quite practical. It not only points out the business prospects but also gives people a sense of closeness as "one of our own," and it doesn't rule out the possibility of needing help.

Huang Dapeng's eyes lit up. The biggest fear in the transportation industry is an unstable supply of goods. Shen Fei is familiar with Qian Hong. If he wants to do e-commerce, it certainly won't be as simple as just opening an online store.

He didn't agree immediately, but asked seriously, "Feizi, tell me honestly, is e-commerce really going to work? I've seen several online stores in the county fail."

"Cousin, times have changed, and so have the ways of doing things." Shen Fei smiled, not explaining in detail, but his eyes were resolute. "6"

Trust your cousin this time. Let's exchange contact information, and I'll send you the company address later. Come over when you have time, and we can talk in detail.

"Okay! I'll be waiting for you." Huang Dapeng took out his phone, scanned the QR code to add him as a friend, his movements swift and his face beaming with undisguised joy.

He was an honest man, but not stupid. Since Shen Fei had spoken up, he meant Shen Fei took him seriously.

Regardless of how well or poorly he performs in the future, as the older cousin, he should definitely help his younger cousin since he needs it.

After adding him as a friend, Shen Fei's gaze fell on Huang Dapeng's face. Looking at this honest and tanned face, a feeling of emotion suddenly welled up in his heart.

In his past life, my older cousin was just too "honest," and he was even more clueless about relationships, which was frustrating.

He's over forty and still unmarried, which is making his family extremely anxious.

Later, a friend introduced him to a woman from another city who was divorced and had a child.

My cousin was naive and completely infatuated with that woman. They dated for two years, and the woman spent money extravagantly, draining my cousin's savings like water.

His family all advised him that the woman was unreliable, but his cousin wouldn't listen and thought she was genuinely committed to living with him.

Later, the woman said that her parents were in poor health and she needed to take care of them, and that she hadn't seen them more than a few times a year. She also said that she was pregnant.

My cousin was overjoyed and wanted to discuss marriage with the other party, but she made outrageous demands, asking for an exorbitant dowry. If my aunt hadn't stopped him, my cousin would have borrowed the money to pay it.

In the end, the woman used the dowry as an excuse and never came back, but she still asked her cousin to reimburse her for the prenatal checkup expenses.

After the child was born, she used the child as an excuse to ask her cousin for money.

In the end, their savings were depleted, and the person disappeared. Aunt Chen Lan was so angry that she was hospitalized with high blood pressure.

Shen Fei remembered that everyone in the family knew that his cousin had been deceived, and they all called him an idiot, but his cousin still refused to believe it, always thinking that the woman had her reasons... Damn it, if it weren't for the fact that his cousin was good to his family and was honest and filial, Shen Fei wouldn't have bothered with such an idiot.

Should he have reminded him?

Shen Fei swirled his teacup, thought for a moment, and swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

If you say something before it happens, people may not believe it, and you might even be seen as a jinx.

It's only 2018 now. Judging by the timeline, that "blind date" and "fate" shouldn't have even started yet. Maybe... he should wait and see. If there's any sign of it, he'll think of something else.

"Feizi? What are you thinking about?" Huang Dapeng called out to him when he saw him in a daze.

"No, I think you brewed this tea very well, cousin." Shen Fei snapped out of his thoughts, smiled, picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp. "Alright, cousin, you go ahead and do your work. I have some things to do, so I have to go with Mom and Dad first."

"Leaving already? Aren't you going to stay a little longer?" Chen Lan and Chen Yun were both somewhat surprised.

"No, Auntie, I still have things to take care of at the company." Shen Fei stood up, looked at Xu Lu, and nodded politely. "Xu Lu, we'll be going now."

"Um... Goodbye, Fei-ge." Xu Lu immediately stood up and said softly.

Shen Jianguo and Chen Yun also got up to say goodbye to Chen Lan and Huang Dapeng.

Before leaving, Chen Yun tugged at Xu Lu's hand again and said with a smile, "Lulu, if you have the chance next time, come to Auntie's house to play. Auntie will cook for you."

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Chen." Xu Lu nodded obediently.

The group left the courtyard and got into the car. The car started and slowly drove out of the courtyard.

Only Huang Dapeng and Xu Lu remained at the tea table in the courtyard.

The chairs where Chen Lan and Chen Yun had been sitting were now empty, the lingering atmosphere of their lively conversation seemingly still present. Huang Dapeng, tidying up the teacups, slowed his movements.

Xu Lu stood by the table, motionless, her teacup empty, yet she still held it.

Huang Dapeng wiped the table without looking up, and asked casually, "Lulu, my aunt and the others asked you if you had a boyfriend, and you said no? I heard your grandma mention that you said... you liked someone in our village, right? And you were being so mysterious about it."
