I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 395 Lustful Town
The evening breeze blew in along the alley, and the atmosphere of the whole commercial street was quiet and pleasant, and I drank a whole pot of tea in this mood, and Yang Sisi wanted to make another pot for me, but I really should go.

Before I left, I looked into the depths of the commercial street again. Today is different. At this moment, the bar of the foreigner is already full of customers, and there are even a few people sitting under the umbrellas outside the bar. For the guests, they are drinking while listening to the boss playing jazz-style music with instruments.

In my memory, the bar in Jiulongju has never been so lively...

Yang Sisi next to me also followed my gaze, and she said to me: "There are more and more tourists coming to Jiulongju... Many tourists come here specially, wanting to see this quiet place in the midst of the hustle and bustle. What does the commercial street look like... That foreigner's bar has become very popular recently because it was recommended by a tourist celebrity..."

"He spent money to buy an advertisement from a big V?"

"No, it was the big tourist V who saw the advertisements that your studio placed on other travel accounts, and made a special trip to visit Jiulongju. He drank very delicious beer in that foreigner's bar, so I wrote an article on my own account to recommend it, and his account has a huge amount of traffic, so many tourists come here... I think Jiulongju is going to be popular..."

"How did you figure it out?"

"How could it be possible for a travel big V to recommend a place spontaneously regardless of remuneration? ... I am also planning to spend 2 yuan from the recent income of the inn to make a deal with our inn on the travel big V The relevant special advertisement... is preparing materials now... I have a hunch that when this advertisement is released, coupled with the summer tourist season, the inn will definitely be overwhelmed!"

"It's pretty good at taking advantage of the trend!"

Yang Sisi smiled: "Aren't these routines all learned from you when we opened an inn by the sea?"

"Then you are really good enough. You can suck blood from me and go fatten Cao Xiaobei."

I was joking with Yang Sisi, but I felt a sense of urgency in my heart... The time when the "Jiulongju" commercial street will be fully heated may be much earlier than we estimated... I must hurry up to go Stock up more shops, or miss this opportunity. When the owners start to be vigilant, they will no longer be able to buy shops below the market price, and what really makes me soar is what happens before and after the appreciation. Huge price difference!
At this time, I have to thank Lu Jia. It was her dedication that kept my previous plan alive...

"what are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing...I should go back, let's talk later."

"Don't go yet... How long are you going to stay in Chengdu?"

"I have to wait for the treatment plan from the hospital to come out, so I don't know how long I will stay."

Yang Sisi seemed a little hesitant, this kind of state is rare for her.After a while, she asked me, "Are you really planning to let Lu Jia stay in Chengdu to take care of your father?"

I asked back: "Is it realistic to ask her to go now?" After a short pause, I said again: "Let's not talk about this... Now the most important thing is to cure my father's illness. Pay it back slowly... a lifetime is so long, there will always be a time to pay it off!"

"Well, I hope it really pays off."

……

After leaving Jiulongju, I went to the hospital again. I brought some food for Lao Mi and my mother. Lao Mi was not in the mood to eat, so he reluctantly ate a little under the persuasion of everyone.In fact, we all know in our hearts that no matter how fearless Lao Mi is, we will still be afraid... This is human instinct.

I am his son, but there is no way to replace him to face death. I can only hope for the results of the next examination and pray that the cancer cells have not invaded other organs.

After staying in the hospital for more than an hour, I drove Lu Jia back to the inn where she was staying. Like me, she also had to pack her luggage for Chengdu and make arrangements for her parents. "

……

At the entrance of the inn, I stood face to face with her, we looked at each other, and then I spoke first, and I said to her: "Chen Jin has already told me that you paid 20 yuan for treatment at the hospital." ... I don't know what to say, but you will really put a lot of pressure on me by doing this!"

"I don't understand, what pressure do you have?"

"You understand."

"I really don't understand... I just want to help you share, how much I can help, how much."

"But what you are doing now is beyond your own ability... The 20 you took out is your parents' pension money..."

Lu Jia looked at me, and after a while, replied in a low voice: "This is not their pension money, it was used to buy me a dowry... They once discussed with me that if you can buy a house in Shanghai , they took out 30 yuan to decorate for us... They also hoped that we could live a good life in Shanghai... But what happened later was beyond all of our expectations... It was my fault !"

I was in a complicated mood, so that I replied after a while of silence: "I feel that I am quite passive, because you have done many things for me behind the scenes... I thought about it, the money for hospitalization, I It will be returned to you together with the interest and the principal.”

Lu Jia's complexion became extremely ugly, and she said to me patiently: "I really don't want to quarrel with you at this time... But, do you really want to make it like a business between you and me?... Yes, Even if you want to pay back the money, can you wait until your uncle recovers from his illness before asking me about it?... What are you talking about now?"

Although there were words of defense in my heart, but because speaking out would hurt her, I chose to remain silent. I avoided her eyes, and she left while I was avoiding...

I couldn't tell what it was like in my heart, so I just looked at her back and lit a cigarette for myself.

After a while, I secretly made up my mind to stop thinking about these messy things until Lao Mi's condition is actually brought under control... One thing, I agree with Lu Jia. At this stage, I must have a big picture in mind. I shouldn't think too much about things other than Lao Mi's condition at this time.

……

When I returned to the residence again, Chen Jin had already returned. He seemed to have drunk a lot of wine and was lying on the sofa in a daze... I went to his room and hugged a quilt, trying to cover him. But I woke up from the movement I made.

He wiped his face with his hands, then let out a breath and asked me, "When did you come back?"

"Just now... are you drunk again?"

"Going out to do business, it's impossible not to drink... But, there are gains... We have another set of shops under the name of our studio."

I looked at Chen Jin, and after a little silence, I said: "The time when Jiulongju really becomes popular may come earlier than we predicted... Before long, these owners will become vigilant, and when the time comes, we will If you want to buy a house at a low price, it will be impossible.”

"You mean, let me speed up the progress to get the house?"

"Ah."

"Then why don't you thank Lu Jia well, if it weren't for Lu Jia's help, today's shop would not be able to negotiate at all."

"I didn't say no to thank her... It is because of her great favor that I want to do a good job in Jiulongju's business... I will definitely not go back to Dali in the recent period, so I hope you can have a sense of urgency here, and when the real estate certificate comes out, you can get a loan as soon as possible... If the bank has difficulties, you can find a relationship, anyway, you have to do whatever it takes to get a loan, the more the better!"

"You are going to fight hard!"

"Success or failure depends on one action..."

After a short pause, I said again: "I will definitely not lose, because apart from funds, all the conditions to make money are already in place!"

Chen Jin nodded emphatically, and then fell into a state of contemplation, probably also thinking about whether there are any connections that can help us get a loan quickly.

After being silent for a while, Chen Jin said to me as if he remembered something: "By the way, I don't know who put a box at the door of our studio yesterday. came back."

As Chen Jin said, he took the box out from under the coffee table.

I took it from him suspiciously, and opened the box...inside the box was a postcard...and a small bottle of liquid. "

The postcard is obviously not printed in China, because there is no Chinese on it, but I can still recognize where the extremely beautiful scenery on it comes from... because Ye Zhi and I mentioned this place.

This is a small romantic town located on the border of France and Germany. It is called Riquewihr, and it is also known as the most "lecherous" town. Not only are there flowers in the town, but even the outer walls of each building are of different colors. ...

Ye Zhi said that this is the most distinctive town she has ever been to, and the beauty after years of precipitation is within reach here!
