After the meal, Xia Mingshuang tidied his notebook, checked for any omissions and filled them in to see if there was anything he had missed and what he should pay attention to.

Gu Yunshan saw her serious look and stepped forward to help. He pointed out a few details to Xia Mingshuang.

Xia Mingshuang happily wrote down, "Thank you so much, Gu Gong. He is worthy of being a master of science and engineering. This logic is strong."

Erzhuang, who was looking for an opportunity at the door, felt his teeth were a bit sore. What did my father say and you just made him a master? Although he is a great master in his own field, he is just an ordinary person in terms of living his life and preparing for salutes, right?

No, not as good as ordinary people.

In the past, it was the father who liked everything about the mother, and he would say that the mother was cute and good-looking when her face was covered with soot. Now, it is the mother who thinks that the father is good at everything, and she spoils her father by acting like a child.

Tsk tsk, adults are really weird.

Gu Yunshan was holding Xia Mingshuang's hand while writing when he heard a scoff from behind. He smiled helplessly, stood up, and turned around and said, "Er Zhuang, why don't you come in and tell me something? What are you doing sneakily hiding outside the door frame?" ?”

Erzhuang immediately jumped in and said with a smile: "Dad, I'm not sneaky, I'm just waiting for the opportunity."

Xia Mingshuang tapped his forehead with a pen, "Don't use idioms indiscriminately, what are you trying to do?"

Er Zhuang's handsome little face immediately showed an expression of dissatisfaction: "Mom, how can you blame your son? If you always say that I am naughty, then others will think that I like naughty people, so you should treat me differently. It’s biased. How can I get a wife then?”

Xia Mingshuang burst out laughing, "Are you still marrying a wife? Didn't you say it's inappropriate to spend money on a wife?"

Er Zhuang immediately grabbed Gu Yunshan's big hand and shook it, "Dad, what do you think?"

Gu Yunshan took off his glasses and said in a gentle voice: "Well, I shouldn't always say that you are a cheater, but are you cheating?"

Erzhuang just laughed.

He stretched out his arms around Xia Mingshuang's neck, imitating the little Zaizai's act of coquettishness, "Mother, mother..."

Xia Mingshuang couldn't stand it anymore. This kid had so many tricks up his sleeve that he was easily fooled.

She originally fought for the supply and marketing cooperative's sales point in Gujialing, but in the end it became his. Now they don't have to keep an eye on it personally. They open for business at a fixed time, noon and evening, and there is no delay in making money. Also saves time.

Xia Mingshuang: "Come on, tell me what you want?"

Erzhuang immediately stood up straight and said seriously: "Mom, are you saying that children should see more of the world and gain more knowledge?"

Xia Mingshuang nodded: "Yes, reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles are better. You can't do either one."

Erzhuang: "Is it not easy for me to read thousands of books now? There aren't that many villain books for me to read, right?"

Xia Mingshuang seemed to understand what he meant, and said with a smile: "Then how do you want to travel thousands of miles? How about I find a relationship to send you to the army, and you train with me every day? If not, you can go back to the Long March. "

"Mom, how can you suppress your own son like this?" Erzhuang immediately protested. Are you asking me to walk thousands of miles? You must be trying to save my life.

Er Zhuang is obsessed with money, but he doesn't have the tenacity and hard-working spirit of Gu Nianjun and Da Zhuang. With more money, there are more opportunities to choose from, and they are not so stubborn.

Anyway, don’t wait for those who take the initiative to endure hardship.

Xia Mingshuang: "That's a bit difficult, and my parents can't help it."

Erzhuang immediately said mysteriously: "Mom, yes, you see, from our home to Mingcheng, whether you go north to the capital, or south to Shanghai or Guangdong, it's a thousand miles away, right?"

Xia Mingshuang looked at him with a half-smile, "Then it's even further to go to the Great Northern Wilderness."

Erzhuang: "Mr. Xia, let's put it this way. People in the Ming Dynasty don't tell secrets. I want to go to Guangdong with you and dad to see the world and see what the Canton Fair is like. Maybe after seeing it, I will be more interested in doing business." Are you interested? Maybe I can also do import and export business in the future?"

Xia Mingshuang: "You are interested in doing business even if you don't go here, and you are looking for money all day long. What will you do if you go?"

Erzhuang: "Then I'll go. I'm interested in big business. I can do business with foreigners and make money from foreigners!"

As he spoke, he straightened his little body, feeling very proud.

Xia Mingshuang suppressed a smile, "Do you speak English, Japanese, Korean or Southeast Asian languages? Do you need a translator for you?"

Erzhuang himself wanted to go to Guangdong to purchase goods and sell them back. He didn't really want to do business with foreigners, but now Xia Mingshuang piqued his interest.

"Mom, can you do business with foreigners if you speak foreign languages?"

Then is he interested?

Did he learn English from Dr. Lou, Dr. Qian, in vain?

He can also have daily conversations, right?

If he gets a translation dictionary, he will definitely be able to communicate with foreigners!

Xia Mingshuang didn't want to hurt him. Nowadays, authentic English-speaking countries no longer come to the Canton Fair, but Asian countries. Their English is very poor, and it is not easy for ordinary people to understand it.

However, she felt that Er Zhuang was really brave, so she couldn't refuse him directly.

Otherwise, something might happen to this kid. He will not give up on something he is sure about. If his parents don't agree, he will find someone else. Then he will still torment her.

Xia Mingshuang asked: "Do you know how expensive it is to go to Guangdong? Letter of introduction, train tickets, guesthouse fees, meal fees, and exhibition hall fees."

He didn't understand anyway, so wasn't she trying to fool him?

Erzhuang thought for a while and said, "Mom, how about a fixed price? How much do you want to give me the guarantee?"

Xia Mingshuang: "…………"

This kid is not easy to fool.

Erzhuang counted on his fingers, "Open letters of introduction, eat, and enter the museum. Do you want to make extra money? I agree with opening letters of introduction and entering the museum. If eating is not possible, then why don't I not eat at home? If it doesn't work, I'll bring a bag with me. Douzi pancakes are also fine.”

He smiled straight at Xia Mingshuang, "As long as mom and dad look at it."

Gu Yunshan: "Well, I have no problem."

Erzhuang looked at Xia Mingshuang with his big black eyes.

His eyes are not as narrow and long as Da Zhuang, nor are they as big and round as Xiao Zaizai. They are somewhere in between, and the shape is very beautiful, but he likes to be funny and rarely looks at people with his long black eyelashes fluttering.

Xia Mingshuang couldn't bear it anymore, "Okay, then you will pay for the train ticket and the money to enter the museum. I won't make any money from you."

Train tickets are still very expensive these days. From Mingcheng to Guangdong, it costs about 50 for a sleeper berth and about 28 for a hard seat.

Many people's monthly salary is only 30, and old farmers cannot save for [-] years in a year, so traveling is very luxurious, and it is easier only if the employer reimburses it.

Erzhuang didn't even blink. He saw the world and went to Guangdong to buy goods. How much money would he make back?

He immediately bought 100 yuan and said proudly: "Mom, help me ask if there are student tickets. Brother Yuhui said that student tickets are cheap, and children like me might not want tickets."

In fact, he wanted to evade the fare with his eldest brother, but he was afraid that his parents would punish him if they found out and would not let him go to the exhibition hall or drive him back directly.
