Chapter 81 Evil intentions
"Mom, what are you saying all of a sudden?"
Bai Jiao'e glared at him and then looked at Mu Xiaowan.
Mu Xiaowan knew perfectly well what Bai Jiao'e was up to.
"Xiao Wan, if you want a storage room, your second aunt will rent one for you, any size you want."
Mu Xiaowan pretended to be stupid and said, "Second Aunt, I think this place is pretty good and convenient."
Mu Xiaowan wiped the sweat from her forehead; carrying things was really tiring.
"Shaoqing, tell the workers to be careful, so that they don't get bumped or knocked over before we even load the goods."
"Okay, sister-in-law, you rest, I'll do it."
Seeing his own son behaving meekly and submissively in front of a country bumpkin.
Bai Jiao'e grew increasingly angry, but she couldn't afford to lose her temper right now.
"Xiao Wan, your second aunt wants to discuss something with you. How about this? Whether you want to live here or just store your things, your second aunt will find you a bigger and better place, and I'll pay the rent. You can give up this place for your second aunt, okay?"
Mu Xiaowan could tell that Bai Jiao'e was trying her best to suppress her anger.
She smiled slightly.
"Second Aunt, I've been moving for half a day now. This place is fine, and I don't want to move. Besides, I've already agreed with Grandpa that if he rents this place to me, I'll have to pay rent."
"You're just overthinking things, child. Why would your grandfather ask you for rent?"
"No, I rent everywhere. I have to pay my grandfather. That way I'll feel more at ease using it."
Seeing that his mother kept telling them to move, Chu Shaoqing asked in confusion, "Mom, this house is just sitting there anyway, why do you want us to move?"
Bai Jiao'e was furious and walked over to slap Chu Shaoqing on the shoulder.
Chu Shaoqing, wincing in pain, looked at his mother, feeling somewhat bewildered. "Mom, what are you doing?"
"You traitor! Would all this have happened if it weren't for you?" Bai Jiao'e always believed that Mu Xiaowan did this because Chu Shaoqing had informed her.
"Look at you, even if I die, I have to die knowing why. What did I do?"
"Second Aunt, let's talk this out. Shaoqing, a grown man, will lose face."
Bai Jiao'e didn't explain. She looked at Mu Xiaowan and softened her tone, "Xiaowan, to tell you the truth, I originally planned to use this house as your older brother's wedding home. Your grandmother agreed today. I didn't expect you to use it as a storeroom."
"This house is so big, it's a bit of a waste for you to just put things in it. Second Aunt, please, could you give it to your eldest brother?"
When has Bai Jiao'e ever spoken softly, especially to someone she looks down on?
Chu Shaoqing asked in surprise, "Mom, why are you giving this house to my older brother all of a sudden? It's not like we don't have enough room in our house."
Bai Jiao'e's hands, which were in her pockets, gradually tightened.
She wanted to kill this clueless bastard.
"Second Aunt, this is an old house. My sister-in-law is the eldest daughter of the An family, how could she possibly like it? You should buy her a new house, a new style, she'll definitely like it. I don't have money, but if I did, I would definitely buy one too."
Seeing that Mu Xiaowan was unmoved by reason, Bai Jiao'e was no use in trying to reason with her, and could only think of another way.
……
Big factories are efficient; the custom-made walkie-talkies are already ready.
Mu Xiaowan paused everything she was doing and asked Chu Shaoqing to move all the materials to the shop.
The shop is all decorated now, but it hasn't been developed yet. They're focusing on cleaning up the second floor first, trying to get the business going.
Since it was a test machine, Mu Xiaowan didn't let Chu Shaoqing use it.
Mu Xiaowan asked Chu Shaoqing and Qi Haiyang to get a new set of power tools.
Although some are clumsy, once you get used to them, they become quite convenient.
Chu Shaoqing stayed by her side the whole time, learning and helping her at the same time.
The new assembly was quite time-consuming; Mu Xiaowan spent two days assembling it before finally getting it done.
The test results were as she expected.
Mu Xiaowan asked Chu Shaoqing to take these walkie-talkies to Qi Haiyang.
Actually, if the order is really big, she still has to find a factory to do it. The reason she took it home to do it herself and then found Qi Haiyang to do it through him was because he was the one who made it.
Ultimately, it's all about having the leverage to negotiate terms in the future.
Originally, she only wanted to do personal business, such as customizing voice recorders or locators, but when she first started doing this, she had no customers and they were doomed to starve.
Therefore, for now, we can only do bulk business.
If she can use her skills to secure this deal, and then reach a cooperation agreement with the electronics factory and sign a contract, she can entrust the entire deal to the electronics factory without worrying that they will learn the technology.
In any case, these technologies need to be constantly updated. And she's selling more than just this one technology.
Throughout history, craftsmanship has always been the most valuable asset.
She has nothing to worry about.
I just don't know if Qi Haiyang's father will do her that favor.
However, her worries were unfounded.
Qi Haiyang's father was very happy to see his son suddenly become more motivated.
He would, of course, unconditionally support his son's first business venture.
Therefore, Chu Shaoqing's business went very smoothly.
Mu Xiaowan couldn't wait for Chu Shaoqing and was also very hungry.
She then went to a roadside stall not far from the shop to eat rice noodles.
The owners are an elderly couple. The rice noodle stall is a makeshift structure. It looks dilapidated from the outside, but it's quite clean inside and not too cold.
As soon as you enter, you can smell the aroma of hot and sour rice noodles, which is very appetizing.
Mu Xiaowan ordered a large bowl of hot and sour rice noodles. After a whole day, she felt like she could eat a whole cow.
While Mu Xiaowan was waiting, another group of people came in from outside.
They were wearing green cotton-padded coats and Lei Feng hats, and they were all rubbing their hands and breathing on them to keep warm from the cold.
"The New Year is almost here, and there's so much to do. I have to be on duty every night, and during the day I have to go door-to-door checking things out. I'm working myself to the bone for such a small amount of money, it's not even enough for the New Year," a man who wasn't in his thirties complained as he looked for a seat.
"It only gets unsettled as the Lunar New Year approaches, with thieves coming out. We have to keep an eye on things; our job is to protect the safety of the people."
The voice is familiar.
When Mu Xiaowan saw the police uniforms, she wondered if it was Ye Jincheng and his group, since they were the only police station nearby.
as predicted.
The shop was small, and when seven or eight men squeezed in, it suddenly felt cramped.
Besides them, Mu Xiaowan was the only customer in the shop.
It's already past nine o'clock, and most people have gone home.
Moreover, the public security situation was not very good at that time, and very few girls would be out alone so late.
So these people saw Mu Xiaowan as soon as they entered the door.
Ye Jincheng followed at the back, and naturally saw it when he entered the door.
"Xiao Mu, what are you doing here?"
"Brother Ye! What a coincidence! I just finished working at the shop, and there's no food left at home, so I'm just grabbing a bite here."
Just then, the owner came over carrying a large bowl of rice noodles.
The men were astonished to see such a large bowl.
"This girl can really eat; that big bowl is enough for me."
"Get out of here, get out of here." Ye Jincheng shooed them away and sat down in front of Mu Xiaowan.
