Siheyuan: All the incense in the family is counting on you

Chapter 113 Who is taking advantage of whom?

Li Xuewu thought for a moment and replied, "Look for a house with its own door and yard, either one or two entrances will do, preferably one that you can move in directly without any renovations!"

He felt that this kind of house was more suitable for his current needs.

After hearing this, Chen Xueru couldn't help but joked: "You are so anxious! Why do you want to keep a beautiful woman in a golden house even though you are getting married?"

Li Xuewu quickly explained: "Let's get ready first. I'm old enough now and I can't always squeeze in with my uncle and aunt!"

Chen Xueru's eyes turned, and she suddenly thought of something. She smiled and said, "Okay, brother, I'll leave it to you. I promise to find you a good house! But..."

She paused, then continued, "Can you take me, your sister, with you on your way to making money?"

Li Xuewu looked at Chen Xueru in surprise and asked in confusion: "Are you still short of money?" He really didn't understand why someone like Chen Xueru would be short of money.

"Of course I don't need it. After the public-private partnership, my silk shop only received dividends. Now I donate both the dividends and the salary. I am left with only my capital. How can I survive without income?"

This is where Chen Xueru’s brilliance lies.

As a mature businessman, she has a keen insight and sensitivity to current affairs.

Although she was somewhat reluctant when the public-private partnership first started, she was eventually among the first group to participate, but unfortunately Xu Huizhen got there first.

In the context of that era where class background was important, although Chen Xueru's class background did not reach the standard of a capitalist, it was not far off. However, it was precisely because of her active cooperation and participation that she was eventually classified as a small business owner.

Even so, Chen Xueru still felt uneasy, and later even resolutely gave up the dividends and donated all her salary.

This move earned her a good reputation in the street office and at least avoided unnecessary trouble. But her business instinct always drove her to look for more business opportunities.

Now that she heard that Li Bowen had found a way to make money, she naturally didn't want to miss this rare opportunity.

Li Bowen secretly wondered whether he should let Chen Xueru participate.

There is a shortage of food everywhere now. If we cooperate with Chen Xueru, with her network of contacts, the sales scale will definitely far exceed that of Fox and others.

But the risks involved should not be underestimated.

The key is that he doesn't know Chen Xueru well enough. Her mind is unpredictable. If she reports him, the consequences will be disastrous.

Besides, it is unknown whether she will implicate herself once the matter is exposed.

Chen Xueru noticed Li Bowen's concerns and asked softly, "Why, you still don't trust me? Then tell me, how can I make you trust me?"

Li Bowen quickly apologized with a smile: "How dare I? I don't believe anyone but you, Sister Xueru!"

Finally, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "My business is actually very simple. I have a friend who can get a lot of food, and I make some money by selling food. If you are interested, we can work together."

Now is a time of food shortage, and getting food is not something that ordinary people can do. Chen Xueru couldn't help but look at Li Bowen with even higher regard. No wonder Li Bowen had that expression, it was normal for him not to trust herself.

If I were to embark on this journey, I would really have to find a way to make Li Bowen completely trust me, otherwise it would be troublesome if something went wrong in the future.

But now that Li Bowen has said it, I'll just agree to it first. If you don't make money, you're a bastard.

"Okay, I'll do the business. You wait a moment!" Chen Xueru stood up and walked into the inner room.

Soon, she came out with a small box, unlocked it and pushed it in front of Li Bowen: "Here are twenty small yellow croakers. See how much food you can get in. I have a good market for it, sister!"

He must be a really rich man, he could just take out so much money from home so easily.

Li Bowen gave Chen Xueru a thumbs up and said, "You are so rich. Would you like to be my sponsor?"

“Hehehe” Chen Xueru covered her mouth and laughed: “That’s exactly what I want! You are not allowed to regret it!”

Li Bowen immediately lost his temper. There was no way to joke with this woman. She was always bolder than him.

Just when the two were having a great time chatting, there was a knock on the door.

Li Bowen glanced at Chen Xueru and asked, "Who is it?"

"I don't know. I'll go take a look!" Then Chen Xueru got up and walked outside.

Not long after, Chen Xueru came back: "It's okay, the people from the street office came to ask something, let's continue drinking!"

Since it had nothing to do with him, Li Bowen didn't pay attention to it and went on to talk about food. Twenty small yellow croakers could buy several tons of food.

After discussing how to deliver the goods, the two of them started drinking.

After drinking a bottle of wine, Chen Xueru began to show some signs of drunkenness.

Her charming eyes rippled like waves. She stood up lightly and walked slowly towards Li Bowen.

She gently placed one arm on Li Bowen's shoulders, and gently stroked his cheek with her fingers, saying softly: "You are so beautiful, I can never get tired of looking at you!"

Then, she leaned down, put her chin on Li Bowen's shoulder, and continued: "If I were a few years younger, I would never let you go."

Hearing this, Li Bowen couldn't help but tremble all over, muttering to himself: Is this woman crazy? Is she crazy after drinking?

He quickly stood up and said, "Sister Xueru, you are drunk! I have something else to do so I will leave first!"

After saying that, he was about to walk out, but was pulled back by Chen Xueru, who wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him with her red lips.

After a long time, Li Bowen recovered, gently pushed Chen Xueru away, and then ran out.

Seeing Li Bowen fleeing in panic, Chen Xueru couldn't help but laugh: "He really held it in! Now you don't have to distrust me so much!"

Li Bowen pushed the tricycle out, wiped his mouth, and savored the experience. It felt pretty good. At least he was much more skilled than Yu Li.

Just as he was about to get in the car and go back, a man came out from the side and stopped Li Bowen's car.

"Are you Mr. Li, the buyer from the steel mill?"

Li Bowen stopped the car and looked over. Isn't this Fan Jinyou? Why is he here?

Oh, I'm afraid the person who came to see Chen Xueru just now was him.

"Director Fan, it's you, long time no see!"

"Well, long time no see. Did you just come out from Chen Xueru's house?" Fan Jinyou asked knowingly. He watched Li Bowen come out.

Li Bowen nodded: "Yes, Sister Xueru asked me to buy something for her before. It was just delivered today. What is this?"

"Oh, I was just about to talk to Chen Xueru about something!"

"She's at home right now. If you're busy, I'll leave first!"

After saying hello, Li Bowen rode away on his bike. He and Fan Jinyou had only met once and there was really nothing to talk about.

Moreover, there was some interest between Chen Xueru and Fan Jinyou before. Chen Xueru kissed him just now, and now when he saw Fan Jinyou again, he always felt like a thief, so it was better for him to leave quickly.
