As soon as Liang Chen came out, Zhuo Shao saw him.
The little fat man doesn't look too fat now, but he looks more and more like the Liang Xin in his memory.
"Zhuo Shao!" Seeing Zhuo Shao, Liang Chen ran over immediately, and his schoolbag slapped his back.
Zhuo Shao stretched out his hand to pick up his schoolbag and said, "Don't run so fast next time."
"Well..." Liang Chen responded, and hugged his schoolbag with his backhand: "I carry it myself!"
Zhuo Shao picked it up and didn't bring his schoolbag, so he could only give up: "Let's go then."
Liang Chen smiled at Zhuo Shao, and began to think about how to send his own card to Zhuo Shao, as for the girl's card to Zhuo Shao...
He didn't want to give that card to Zhuo Shao.
Liang Chen wanted to send his own greeting card to Zhuo Shao, but after returning home, he had no chance to send a greeting card at all.
Someone is moving the furniture that Zhuo Shao bought upstairs, Zhuo Shao must watch it, and at the same time, he has to prepare dinner.
Zhuo Shao was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, so Liang Chen naturally didn't have the chance to send the greeting card, but he ran around with Zhuo Shao, helped wash a lot of dishes, and was in a good mood.
Zhuo Shao was too busy, so the dishes he cooked were quite simple, and the meal was not ready until Liang returned at half past six.
"I'll go upstairs to have a look, you can eat first." Zhuo Shao said, and then went upstairs to check what was delivered, and let someone install it by the way.
When the furniture was bought, many of them were not installed, and the workers planned to install some of them today.
Zhuo Shao instructed the workers before going downstairs to eat. Half an hour had passed by now, but Liang Fang and the others had not eaten yet and were waiting for him.
"Why don't you eat first, what if you are hungry?" Zhuo Shao frowned and looked at Liang Chen.
"I ate an apple." Liang Chen said quickly, "You asked me to eat more fruit."
Hearing what Liang Chen said, Zhuo Shao didn't say anything, he just said, "Hurry up and eat."
Half an hour later in the winter, the dishes were cold, but the rice was still hot. Liang Chen put the fried pork slices on the steaming rack of the rice cooker, which was also hot.
"Zhuo Shao, why don't you hire someone to cook at home? It won't cost you much." Liang Fang suggested that in places like Fuyang County, labor is very cheap. Find someone to cook two meals at noon and evening, three hundred Blocks a month is enough.
But Zhuo Shao thought about it, but refused: "Let's talk about it later."
During this time, he worked hard for nothing, as for the future...
Like Liang Fang, Zhuo Shao also thought about Liang Chen's future.
In his own words, it would be good to develop in Fuyang County first, save some money and then go to the provincial capital, but Liang Chen...
If Liang Chen has been studying here, he will definitely not be able to compete with those who study in good schools in the provincial capital in the future.
And... He didn't forget that in Beimen Junior High School, there were a group of people who had bullied Liang Chen.
He picks up Liang Chen every day these days, it's not like he's guarding those people, he's afraid that if he doesn't watch, Liang Chen will be bullied and extorted.
In his last life, before he took money from Liang Chen every day, Liang Chen had been blackmailed by others.
Zhuo Shao felt that it would be better for him to change the environment and start over.
And if Liang Chen went to study in the provincial capital, such as a foreign language school, he would have to live there, and he would never have the opportunity to cook for him every day...
During this time, he was a little busy, and he liked it.
After eating, Zhuo Shao went upstairs again. Liang Chen took the bowl and took it to the kitchen to wash it, but Zhuo Shao didn't come down after washing.
He went upstairs to have a look and found that Zhuo Shao was still busy with furniture.
"I'm a little busy today, maybe I don't have time to teach you how to draw. You go do your homework first." Zhuo Shao said to Liang Chen, and after he finished speaking, he instructed: "After you finish your homework, listen to the English tape and learn English. "
Liang Chen's Chinese and mathematics are all good. If he goes to other schools, he may miss a little homework, but it will never be too serious, but English...
In big cities, elementary school students started to learn English in the second and third grades, and they only had a little contact with them in the fifth and sixth grades. In junior high schools, they started to learn English formally from ABC, and they still learned dumb English.
Under such circumstances, if Liang Chen went to those good schools, the courses would definitely not be able to keep up.
Not to mention, Liang Chen still has the habit of stuttering when he is nervous.
Liang Chen was a little lost, but seeing that Zhuo Shao was so busy, he didn't say anything, and obediently went downstairs to do his homework.
There are a lot of homework assigned by the teacher. If you do it carefully, you can’t finish it in three hours. However, some of them are repetitive.
Liang Chen did all the homework that the teacher wanted to accept for correction, and the rest of the assignments that the teacher would not correct, so he just picked and did a little.
Generally, children are reluctant to do homework. He has been neglected since he was a child, but he does his homework very seriously, and he is afraid that he will be criticized by the teacher for not doing well...
Liang looked at it for a while, and his mood became more and more complicated.
It wasn't until half past nine when Liang Chen's homework was almost done, but Zhuo Shao still hadn't come back.
Liang Chen was a little restless.
Fortunately, Liang Fang went to take a shower at this time... Liang Chen got up, put the extra thick greeting card he bought in the book, and went upstairs to find Zhuo Shao.
The person who installed the furniture has left, and Zhuo Shao is cleaning up.
When the furniture was delivered, they were all wrapped in cardboard foam. Now, Zhuo Shao has to move these things down.
"Why are you here?" Zhuo Shao was very happy to see Liang Chen.
Liang Chen also felt Zhuo Shao's mood, his eyes were bent, and then he hesitated again, after hesitating for a while, he took out the greeting card from his book and gave it to Zhuo Shao: "For you, happy New Year."
Zhuo Shao was stunned for a while, and then he remembered that it would be New Year's Day in a few days.
At this time, people didn't pay much attention to the Chinese New Year, and he almost forgot about it.
No, he actually didn't forget... This year's New Year's Day is Monday, and Saturday and Sunday are two consecutive days. During these three days, he planned to install all the appliances and curtains.
"Thank you." Zhuo Shao wanted to receive the card, but suddenly found that his hands were very dirty... "Tuck it into my clothes for me, I'll check it later." He was wearing thick clothes, and his pants were tied up Yes, greeting cards can be tucked into sweaters and underwear.
When Zhuo Shao said this, he didn't think much, but when he saw Liang Chen shoving the greeting card from his neck into his clothes with red cheeks... He found that he seemed to be teasing Liang Chen again.
This is really good, his lover is still alive, even alive...
After Zhuo Shao finished his work, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. After he went back, he washed his hands, and then opened the very thick greeting card.
The card is beautiful, a little over the top, with Santa Claus and a Christmas tree printed on it, and when opened, it turns into a pendant with music coming out.
This kind of thing is simply something that little girls like.
This greeting card does not meet Zhuo Shao's aesthetics, but he still cherishes it. After all, this is the greeting card that Liang Chen gave him.
However, when he saw the words on the greeting card, Zhuo Shao couldn't help being stunned.
He suddenly thought that Liang Xin had also sent a greeting card to the company's people, and the one given to him had such a line on it.
He kept the greeting card at that time, but thought that sentence was just a business sentence, and he was a little disappointed.
Zhuo Shao carried the string of luxurious greeting cards into his bedroom and hung the cards on the lamp.
This night, he fell asleep in the back and forth of the music. When he woke up the next day, although the greeting card was out of power, the music was no longer playing, but in his ears, it seemed that the music was still looping. That music.
The next day was Friday, and there was a New Year's party in Beimen Junior High School, so the students in the class were very excited.
Liang Chen was also very happy. When Zhuo Shao sent him to school today, he told him that he liked the card very much.
"Liang Chen, have you given Zhuo Shao my greeting card?" The girl who asked Liang Chen to give Zhuo Shao a greeting card found Liang Chen.
"Give... I gave..." Liang Chen replied stiffly.
He rarely lies, but today he did.
He didn't throw or open the card. He put it in the old textbook he left in elementary school together with the card from his front seat.
"What did Zhuo Shao say?" The girl looked at Liang Chen expectantly.
Liang Chen became even stiffer: "No."
"Oh..." The girl stopped talking and sat back in her seat.
Liang Chen suddenly felt a little bad.
However, he was not a good person in the first place. He knew that Zhuo Shao didn't like him, and he still wanted to be with Zhuo Shao.
On Saturday and Sunday, Zhuo Shao took Liang Chen and Zhuo Ting to the provincial capital again.
He took them to buy things, and also told them some ways to live in the world. Of course, it was mainly for Liang Chen and Zhuo Ting to broaden their horizons.
The electrical appliances in Zhou Zhengqiang's house, Zhuo Shao's are all very well equipped, and he also picked out some unique table lamps and put them away.
He intends to decorate Zhou Zhengqiang's house more delicately.
It was the first time that Liang Chen discovered that there were so many beautiful furniture in this world, and a house could be so beautifully decorated.
He suddenly fell in love with what Zhuo Shao did.
He must study hard in the future, so that Zhuo Shao will open a company in the future, and he will be able to help Zhuo Shao.
Zhuo Shao didn't know Liang Chen's thoughts. At this moment, he was trying his best to make Zhou Zhengqiang's house perfect.
He plans to open a decoration company, and Zhou Zhengqiang's home is his first work, so he will photograph it, print a brochure, and upload it to the Internet by the way.
The Internet and decoration seem to have little connection, but in the Internet age, there is nothing that cannot be sold online!
Twenty years later, some decoration companies have cooperated with TV stations to organize programs, some decoration companies have developed APPs, and many decoration companies have built their own websites, all for the purpose of soliciting business.
At that time, when many young people bought a house and planned to decorate it, the first thing they did was not to run a few decoration companies, but to search online... One can imagine how important the Internet is.
At this moment, Zhuo Shao plans to promote his company on the Internet as early as possible. In the future, he may be able to let customers order a single package online, and then arrange for someone to go to the customer's home for decoration.
By the way, when he has money, he will find a few people to make a decoration website for him, share some decoration dry goods in it, and let others share some decoration records in it...
In this matter, he can also ask Liang Fang to do it too and build a website for selling houses...
Of course, if Liang Fang wants to build a website, it is best not to use Xinhe's name to build it.
Zhuo Shao thought about it a lot and wrote down one by the way.
On New Year's Day, Zhou Zhengqiang would bring his nouveau riche father and some relatives over to see the house.
Now the house still has some shortcomings, but it is almost ready. On this morning, Zhuo Shao did the final cleaning work, and then put the bedding he bought and the pillow made by himself. , All of them were placed in the house, and in some places, he even covered carpets.
A house without these, the visual effect will not always be very good... Although things like carpets are not practical.
In the afternoon, Zhou Zhengqiang came with seven or eight people.
Zhou Zhengqiang's factory is in the countryside, and his family also lives in the country, which is a little far from the city. Therefore, Zhou Zhengqiang rarely came over these days when Zhuo Shao was renovating, and no one of his parents and relatives ever came.
"It's only three months? The house is ready? It's been more than three months for carpentry, right?" Zhou Zhengqiang's father frowned. His name is Zhou Hongjun. I didn't care about the decoration.
He's built his own house, it's so annoying, he doesn't want to touch his hands a second time in his life, and then... He wants to experience his son.
result…
Although he had never cared much about the renovation process, he thought it would take next year to see the effect. Unexpectedly, his son asked him to see the new house after only three months. The decoration is all done by others, and I basically don't care!
He still spent so much money on the decoration of his own house, and his son didn't even care about it... Zhou Hongjun felt very unreliable.
"I came to see it a few days ago. It's almost the same. I bought the furniture." Zhou Zhengqiang said.
When he came here a few days ago, although the house was a bit messy, it was almost finished, so I came to see that there was no problem at all.
"How did you do it so quickly? Is the quality good?" Zhou Hongjun's brows furrowed even tighter: "After spending so much money, it won't work at all."
"Dad, it's a big company. It must be good if you make it. You'll know it when you see it." Zhou Zhengqiang said, he has long believed in Zhuo Shao.
"Those companies are all trying to make money and cheat money."
"If you find a company to do it, how can you find someone to do it well? I don't know what kind of wood they use."
"Zhengqiang, you do everything for others, don't be deceived!"
The thoughts of Zhou Hongjun and the people around Zhou Zhengqiang were the same as Zhou Hongjun.
After these people heard that Zhou Zhengqiang spent so much money to find someone to decorate, they all felt that Zhou Zhengqiang was deceived.
"You'll know when you see it, my house is different from others." Zhou Zhengqiang said.
He was definitely not deceived. Although his house has not been completely installed, he has seen it. It is definitely different from ordinary houses!
Zhou Zhengqiang opened the door, and then was stunned. When he came here a few days ago, the furniture had not been fully laid out, but now, it's all set up here!
Zhou Zhengqiang was a little stunned, as were the people who followed.
This house is completely different from what they thought.
The layout of Zhou's house is the same as that of Liang Chen's house downstairs. Entering the door is the guest dining room. At this moment, there are no shortage of sofas and coffee tables in the living room... The one hanging on the wall... is the TV
The sofa is beautiful, the ceiling is beautiful, and the black and white round table for eight people and the exquisite chandelier in the dining room are all they have never seen before.
This house doesn't look like it was renovated with a lot of money. It's not luxurious at all, but it looks very comfortable.
Zhou Hongjun was relieved.
"Mr. Zhou, have you come to see the house?" Zhuo Shao had been waiting for a long time. At this time, he went up to meet him: "There is still some finishing work left for the decoration, but it is generally done. I will show you around."
Zhuo Shao first brought people to the living room: "The living room is a leather sofa, and the TV is a wall-mounted TV that has just been launched." As he said, he turned on the TV.
At this time, most of the TVs were still very thick and heavy. Wall-mounted TVs were just researched four years ago and have not yet become popular in China.
This TV looks very high-end at first glance, but...
"This TV doesn't need to be plugged in?" Zhou Hongjun was a little confused. The place where they watched TV at home was always a mess of wires, connected to VCD speakers or something, but they couldn't be seen here.
"Here in the living room, there are pipes hidden in the wall, and the plugs all go through the wall, so that there will not be a lot of messy wires." Zhuo Shao said: "I pretend to be a mansion in the provincial capital, and this is what I do. Of course, If you're using an old-fashioned TV, you don't have to worry about that."
Zhou Hongjun, who had only seen old-fashioned TV sets before, couldn't help but blush a little.
He thought for a while and didn't know what to say, and finally said, "Why are there only black and white wooden boards behind this TV? It should be made of marble to look good, and then make some patterns of dragons and phoenixes. Besides, this is a new Why is the house either black or white? It should be bright red, the lamp is not good-looking, how good is the crystal chandelier, it is very luxurious at first glance."
"..." Zhuo Shao was stunned for a moment, and then he said without changing his face: "This is Mr. Zhou, right? You are right. If this house is decorated in Chinese style, it should be like that, but this house It is a modern style, so I did not add Chinese elements, so it is more fashionable and suitable for young people."
"As for luxury, Mr. Zhou, you don't know, the times are not the same, just tell me, I made money before, but I'm happy, I bought a gold chain and put it on myself, I feel like I'm rich just by looking at it. . But a few days ago I followed my relatives to the provincial capital, and I was laughed at. Others said I was a nouveau riche." Zhuo Shao said, "Who wears gold chains in the provincial capital? They all wear watches and watch It's very ordinary, it's no different from the twenty-dollar one on the street, in fact, it costs tens of thousands!"
Zhou Hongjun was stunned for a moment. There was a large gold chain hanging under his clothes. He wore a lot today and was covered by his clothes, so he didn't show it...
"This real mansion is by no means putting those valuable things on the surface, but looking at the inside and culture, just say the paintings on the wall," Zhuo Shao pointed to the paintings on the wall, "These are all It was drawn by someone from our company, and it has a signature, which matches the style here.”
"This painting... why don't you paint peony?" Zhou Hongjun couldn't help but said, he just likes peony, how rich is it? Or get a God of Wealth or something.
"Dad, the peony is an antique. They all said that it doesn't match my modern decoration!" Zhou Hongjun said.
Zhuo Shao smiled and continued to introduce the same things.
Zhou Hongjun's house is modern and simple, but in fact it is not simple at all. In fact, a lot of thought has been put into it. It is said that the TV background wall has a very complicated craftsmanship, but it is not like what they said only used black and white. colored wooden boards. This, Zhuo Shao bought the material and made it himself.
The decoration of the guest restaurant is in the atmosphere, the main body is black and white, but on the upper floor, he is in the warm, the main color is very warm.
In addition, there is a playful toy room, a bright study room, and bedrooms with their own characteristics... The bathroom is even more unique.
At the beginning, Zhou Hongjun thought that the house didn't look expensive enough, but after walking around, this idea disappeared completely.
This toilet can even wash the buttocks. In this world, there is a dishwasher!
He found that he was really ignorant, and the real mansion did not seem to be like his house, which was covered with yellow and orange marbles all over the walls.
It's worth the money! He knows the rich people in the provincial capital, how the house is like!
"This house is beautiful, but I bought a lot of furniture, won't it be used for a long time?" A person who followed couldn't help but said, the bed that I bought was beautiful, but I didn't find someone to make it reliable!
"Although the furniture is purchased, the quality is guaranteed and it will last for 20 years, but I don't think the house will last for 20 years," said Zhuo Shao.
"Why?" Zhou Zhengqiang asked in confusion.
"Elevator rooms are being built in provincial capitals now, and this should be the case in the future... Mr. Zhou's family is rich, so maybe he wants to buy an elevator room to live in." Zhuo Shao flattered secretly.
It turns out that... Other people's knowledge is different from my own!
At first, Zhou Hongjun, who felt that his son was spending money indiscriminately, now also thinks... The decoration company in the provincial capital is just different!
"I saw that there are quilts and sheets on the bed, where did you buy them? It's so beautiful." Zhou Zhengqiang also asked about Zhuo Shao's bedding.
He didn't expect that Zhuo Shao had prepared even these, and it was very nice.
The quilts in their house were either big red flowers or small broken flowers. He didn't think there was a problem with them before, but now...
The bedding that Zhuo Shao bought is really much prettier than his home!
"I bought those beddings from the provincial capital. If Mr. Zhou needs it, I can prepare more for you."
"There is a need, there is a need." Zhou Zhengqiang said quickly.
Zhuo Shao's knowledge is indeed ahead of many people at this time, not to mention that he has been in this industry in his previous life, and he is especially good at fooling people!
In the end, Zhou Zhengqiang readily paid the balance, not to mention, he gave an extra 2,000 yuan and asked Zhuo Shao to help buy some four-piece suits.
After receiving the money, Zhuo Shao was in a very good mood, and said, "Mr. Zhou, the house is almost finished, and in two days, I will give you the key. I use all good materials, and the formaldehyde content is definitely not exceeding the standard. , but after all, it is a new house, it is better to ventilate for a while before living in it.”
"I was going to get married next year." Zhou Zhengqiang said, and sighed again: "Oh, I want to come and live now..."
"Little brother!" At this moment, a person brought by Zhou Zhengqiang and Zhou Hongjun suddenly stopped Zhuo Shao: "Little brother, can you help me decorate a hotel?"
