Spring Breeze Twenty Years

Chapter 1312 The Great Wall is just like a saw's teeth.

Xiao Wei thought for a moment and said, "Then you should discuss it with Lao Xu. If he's willing to open a few branch factories, it's not out of the question. The investment isn't that big."

Chen Hui said, "Old Xu would definitely be happy to do it. For now, let's just relax with Lao Wu. He's very easygoing, not in a hurry at all, and feels like he has enough to eat."

Xiao Wei nodded: "He definitely has enough to eat. Now everyone else does everything, he doesn't have to worry about anything, and he'll just get his share of the profits. What else is there to think about? How much could he have earned working all this way?"

Chen Hui shook his head: "It's still a matter of personality. Han San has been working with us for quite a while now, hasn't he? He's always been very hardworking. I think he's almost taken over the cookware market. He's practically taken over half of it by himself, with six or seven showrooms."

Xiao Wei said, "Different industries, different directions. Besides opening a restaurant, where else can Fifth Brother go?"

Chen Hui leaned back in his chair: "Oh, everyone's different. What's the point of talking about others? It's useless. Just focus on your own business."

Xiao Wei smiled and glanced at Chen Hui: "You've been the one talking, haven't you? I'm just keeping you company."

Chen Hui ran out to find Wang Jiwei and the others to play cards, but Xiao Wei didn't want to play and sat to the side reading. The business school had given the students a book list, and Xiao Wei bought it all and would flip through it whenever he had free time.

You don't need to memorize what you read. Just understand it and have an impression of it so that you know which book to look for it in when you need it later.

Texas Hold'em is quite popular in Northeast China now. It's the most common form of gambling in all kinds of gambling establishments. Chen Hui is the kind of person who loves to play games, especially those related to gambling, because he finds them exciting.

Xiao Wei felt that without him, Chen Hui would definitely be a gambler for life, and the outcome would either be that he angered Old Chen to death, or Old Chen would beat him to death.

The four of them were playing for ten yuan a game. Xiao Wei didn't see anything to be happy about in terms of winning or losing among his own people, but Chen Hui was very interested and could be happy for half a day if he won a few hundred yuan.

How much you win isn't the goal; winning is the goal.

……

The next day, the group returned to Kyoto.

It's still a bit chilly in Harbin and Xidu in the mornings and evenings, but it's hot all day long in Kyoto. China is so big.

Especially here, with a large population, many cars, and numerous buildings, the clustering effect of big cities has already begun.

Fortunately, we lived by the lake. The open water on three sides was like a giant radiator, and the gentle breeze instantly dispelled the summer heat.

Wang Jiwei and Qin Xuemei have brought Wang Yan back, and they've obtained their marriage certificate. They held a banquet in Wang Jiwei's hometown, and although it was a bit rushed, the event went quite smoothly. Who wouldn't be happy to receive gifts and eat for free without giving any?

Now that they are legally married military personnel, Qin Xuemei has moved into Wang Jiwei's room in the middle courtyard. Aunt Chen suggested that Wang Jiwei move to the back courtyard, but Qin Xuemei refused. Following the principle of "marrying a beggar, following a beggar; marrying an old man, following an old man," Qin Xuemei insisted, so Aunt Chen didn't interfere further.

After a few days apart, Chen Xiaohui and Wang Xiaoyan have already become inseparable, sharing a bed and blanket. They run around wildly in the yard every day, and if it weren't for the close supervision, they would even hold hands when they go to the toilet.

Chen Xiao now addresses Qin Xuemei as his in-law.

"Hey, you two, you've had your fun? You finally came back." Chen Xiao's first words to Chen Hui were a sarcastic remark.

Xiao Hong held Xiao Wei's hand and listened with a smile.

Chen Xiaohui ran to Chen Hui's side with her short legs and buried her face in Chen Hui's lap. In the instant the inertia and elasticity took effect, her two chubby little hands were already firmly wrapped around his legs. Her little face was tilted up: "Daddy, are you... are you planning to abandon me? Are you planning to abandon me and Mommy?"

Chen Hui picked up Chen Xiaohui and kissed him a few times: "Who told you that? How could Daddy not want you? You are Daddy's eldest son."

Chen Xiaohui turned to look at Chen Xiao: "Mom said it, and Mom even pretended to cry."

Chen Hui turned to Chen Xiao and said, "Are you bored all day? Are you sick? Why do you always talk about these things with the child?"

Chen Xiao pouted: "Mind your own business. I'll say whatever I want. Chen Xiaohui, you little traitor, just you wait, I'll catch you."

Wang Yan was left by Chen Xiaohui in the corner under a tree. She stood there holding a small grass stick, blinking her big eyes as she looked this way.

Xiao Wei asked Xiao Hong, "Where's my sister?"

Xiao Hong shook her head: "The bookstore. Wang Jiwei is over there too."

Xiao Wei checked the time: "What did you guys have for lunch? Xiao Hui, are you hungry?"

Chen Hui smacked his lips: "Eating a little is fine too."

Xiao Wei waved to Wang Yan: "Yan'er, come here, what are you standing there for?"

Wang Yan looked down at her feet: "I'm not finished painting the Great Wall yet."

Chen Hui laughed and said, "Wow, things are getting so high-end now, starting to describe the beautiful landscapes of our motherland."

Chen Xiaohui twisted his chubby body, trying to get down: "I drew it, I know it, the Great Wall is like a saw, with jagged edges. Two rows, two big rows, twisting and turning like that."

Chen Hui put him down on the ground, and the little guy ran to Wang Yan's side: "Where's my stick?" He looked around on the ground. He had casually thrown the little stick he was holding away when he saw Chen Hui come in.

Wang Yan pointed to the base of the wall: "There."

Xiao Wei walked to the back and asked, "Hong, would you like anything else to eat?"

Chen Xiao said, "Don't make her eat anymore, she's already fat enough. If she gets any fatter, it'll be harder for her to give birth. Make sure she moves around more; she's as lazy as a lump of meat."

Xiao Hong had indeed gained some weight as her pregnancy progressed; her face had become fuller and more rounded. She pursed her lips and glared at Chen Xiao.

Chen Hui said, "Why don't we go to the bookstore for a while, have some cake and cookies and a cup of coffee, and then eat together in the evening?"

Xiao Wei hesitated for a moment: "I'm hungry. You ate several boxed meals on the plane, and you even seemed to enjoy them. I just drank a lot of beverages."

In the end, they didn't eat, and the group took the children out to the bookstore.

Chen Xiaohui and Wang Yan walked ahead hand in hand, the two little ones strolling leisurely along the lake, pointing at the boats in the lake and whispering to each other with mysterious expressions.

Ma San's wife followed beside the two little ones, Xiao Wei, Chen Hui, Xiao Hong, and Chen Xiao walked in the middle, and Zang Yuanwei, Hou Qiang, and two female soldiers followed behind.

They were both from the Fengtian Military Region. Xiaowei hired ten female soldiers at once. Seven were kept in Fengtian, and Xiaowei's mother, Aunt Wang, Geng Huijin, Sister Li Na, Li Wen, and Sister Liu each had a driver. Three came from Kyoto.

The salaries of ten people, plus the expenses from the military region, amount to 50,000 yuan a month, but it's worth the money. Most people, even if they had the money, couldn't hire them.

As they strolled to the bridge, Xiaowei asked Chen Xiao, "Is the shop open yet?"

Chen Xiao sighed: "It's open now. Your older brother introduced the chef; he came from Xingcheng."

Xiao Wei asked, "Then why are you sighing? Is business bad?"

Chen Xiao said, "It's alright. I still have nothing to do. I don't need to watch the shop. The chefs manage the kitchen, the waiters are in the front, and there are salespeople for the local specialties. I'm still a freeloader. I originally thought that opening this shop was just to find something to do."

People in Kyoto are quite tolerant of the food of ethnic minorities.

In fact, many of Kyoto's snacks originated from the cuisines of ethnic minorities. This area has been inhabited by ethnic minorities for hundreds of years and was also the ruling class, which had a huge impact on the city's dining habits.

Especially the Mongol and Hui people. There are halal restaurants everywhere, and the Mongols, needless to say, were originally royalty.

Chen Xiao's Mongolian cuisine restaurant attracted local residents from the surrounding area as soon as it opened.
