The word "ling" in Lingxian County comes from the "Ling of King Xian". Buried in the Tomb of King Xian is "Liu De", the younger brother of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che, who can also be regarded as a super important figure.
The taxi was speeding, and the green trees on both sides were retreating rapidly. The long-faced driver talked eloquently: "Liu De and Liu Che are both sons of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty. They are the Emperor Jing of the "Reign of Wen and Jing". It's just that Liu De and Prince Liu Rong have the same mother." He was born from the same family, and the crown prince Liu Rong failed in his bid for the throne, which led to Liu De being demoted."
Li Shu, who was sitting in the back seat, raised the corner of his mouth. The real situation seemed not to be the case, but he did not refute. Instead, he changed the subject and said: "Hey, the house prices in Ling County seem to have gone up again, right? Like Longyun City, Phoenix City, Triumph City By the time the housing price in the community is approaching 10,000 yuan per square meter."
"Yeah, it's really hard to find anything in Qiling County. House prices are soaring so fast. I originally planned to buy a wedding house for my son, but now I can't afford it... %@&@%."
As soon as the price was mentioned, the long-faced driver burst into tears, his face full of anger, and spittle flew everywhere. Li Shu, who was sitting in the back seat, laughed, but after laughing, he felt quite sad.
Longyun City.
Li Shu got off the taxi and walked into the community, took the elevator to Room 601, Building 6.
Dong dong dong~
"My son is back?" The mother who was cooking opened the door for Li Shu, "We can eat in a while."
"Brother!" Sister Li Yao ran over with short legs and hugged Li Shu's thigh.
"Where's my dad?" Li Shu picked up his sister and pinched the little girl's fleshy face. The little girl giggled instantly, and it seemed that the air became alive with the little girl's laughter.
"Your dad went downstairs to watch people playing chess. He should be back soon." Mom continued, "I'm still stewing fish in the kitchen. I'll go take a look. Don't fight with your sister."
Although Li Shu had already had lunch, when his mother brought the steaming "braised carp" to the table, Li Shu still broke off half a steamed bun and started eating.
"tasty."
"Eat slowly and don't drop the soup on your clothes."
"Oh, it didn't fall off."
After lunch, the little girl who got up very early today felt sleepy. After saying hello, she went to sleep in the back room.
This house in Longyun City is the old house where Li Shu's family lives. It was auctioned before, but was redeemed by his father two days ago.
The 280-square-meter house is very spacious. My parents bought new appliances, sofas, gas stoves, etc.
"Mom and Dad, I have an idea." Li Shu suddenly said slowly while sitting on the sofa with his parents.
The afternoon sun shines in through the large floor-to-ceiling windows and spreads softly on the floor. There is a touch of dust dancing in the air. Weiweiwei~ The "chickens" on the green trees in the community are chirping heartily, adding to the air. A strong hint of summer.
"Oh, just tell me what you think." My parents looked over curiously. My father was drinking tea, and my mother handed a peeled orange to Li Shu, who took it and ate it politely. , so sweet.
"Why don't you let the little girl and I go to Malaysia to live for a while? She is very pestering me. If I leave her alone, she will cry again." Li Shu said slowly: "And after I take the little girl away, you two will also You can take the opportunity to travel around the world and relax.”
In fact, Li Shu knew that his father, Li Cen, had never recovered from his bankruptcy. In addition to the huge gap of losing all the wealth he had accumulated over the years, he also felt the pain of being deceived by a good brother he had trusted for many years.
A lot of depressed emotions accumulated in his heart and could not be released. Li Shu worried that his father would one day be unable to bear it.
"The child belongs to his father. What the son said makes sense." My mother looked at my father with a concerned expression, but hesitated to speak. Bankruptcy is a taboo in the Lao Li family. It is best not to mention it, but this matter happens all the time. It hangs over the family's mind, like a nightmare that can never go away.
"Hey~ Okay." Dad sighed heavily, then nodded slowly.
"But son, are there any development prospects in Malaysia?" Dad frowned and said, "How about you just develop in China."
Dad originally didn’t believe that Li Shu had picked up expensive porcelain from the sea, but Li Shu had really paid off the debt and returned more than 10 million to him and his mother, so the last trace of doubt in his heart was completely dissipated - —It seems that my son is really lucky.
"Well, I found out that the pearl business over there is relatively easy to do." Li Shu said slowly: "The purchase price of some pearls that are slightly smaller in diameter but equally beautiful may only be 100 to 200 yuan, but with a little processing If you sell it again, you may be able to sell it for 600 to 800 yuan, which means there is a lot of profit margin. After all, many girls still like authentic pearl earrings, pearl necklaces, etc."
"Yeah." Dad nodded. He didn't understand pearls either, so he said nothing more.
When the little girl knew that she could go to Malaysia to play with Li Shu, she jumped up and down with joy.
Li Shu took the little girl to take a taxi from Ling County to Cangshi, then took the high-speed train from Cangshi to Yanjing, then took a flight from Yanjing to Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, and finally took a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Tanguan City.
The time spent on transportation was only 9 hours, but including the time waiting for the bus or plane, it finally took 22 hours to reach Danguan City.
"Is this Danguan City? They all look weird." The little girl held Li Shu's hand and walked on the streets of Danguan City, tapping her chin with a jade-like finger.
"You were young when I came here last time, so I'm afraid you've forgotten all about it."
The corners of Li Shu's lips raised. The majority of people in Tanguan City are Malays. Even among the Chinese, there are actually many mixed races. Their appearance is slightly different from that of the Chinese.
"Shhh," Li Shu lowered his voice in a funny way: "We are the foreigners here. It's not them who look weird, it's us who look weird."
"Ah? How is it possible~ I look so cute, how can I be so weird." My sister said with a little frown.
Li Shu looked embarrassed. He praised himself for being cute.
Because my sister slept almost all the way, she was full of energy now, and she was not honest in holding Li Shu's hand, jumping up and down.
In the early morning, Danguan City seemed to be waking up from a deep sleep. Old motorcycles passed by at high speed on the street. Huge packages were often tied to the back seats of the motorcycles, and they were freight workers transporting goods.
"Ang~~"
The cargo ships on the dock emitted low whistles, and the wind brought the sound along with salty water vapor.
Li Shu took his sister to the seafood market, carefully walking across the ground where sewage flowed. The air with the fishy smell of seafood was mixed with the noisy voices of people, which complemented the dilapidated and dirty environment around them.
"How do you sell 5-mouth White Butterfly clams?" Li Shu asked when he came to a stall selling White Butterfly clams. White Butterfly clams are sold individually. "5 mouthfuls" refers to 5 centimeters in length, which is considered a medium price. Small size.
"200 ringgit each." The shirtless swarthy man made a sign of "2", then used his fist as a "zero", and made two fists. Those who didn't know thought he was going to fight.
"Okay, give me ten. I want five males and five females." Li Shu said.
Buzz buzz~
Suddenly, his cell phone rang, and when he looked at the display, he found it was Su Zhizhe calling.
"Hello?"
"Brother Li Shu, have you found my pearl?" Su Zhizhe's voice came from the mobile phone.
Li Shu was stunned for a moment. He looked at the white butterfly clam being picked up by the boss and wanted to say - the clams haven't been raised yet.
