The Pentium Era - South to North

Zhang Chen returned to his house, sat down on the sofa in the living room, and thought blankly, it was Zhao Jingjing who first came to tell Zhang Chen about what he and Xiaofang said. He took it as a joke and let it go after hearing it.

Today, even his mother came to talk to him seriously. Zhang Chen felt that this was a bit funny, but he had to think about it carefully.

Zhang Chen does not deny that Xiaofang is very good, and he and she really get along very well. However, this kind of compatibility is not the kind of love between a man and a woman, but Zhang Chen has seen Xiaofang since the first time. She was still two girls with Xiaoshu, a little girl squeezed next to Xiao Zhao on one side. From that time on, Zhang Chen always regarded Xiaofang as his own sister.

Precisely because he regards Xiaofang as his biological sister, even if Xiaozhao is no longer around, he doesn’t feel anything strange when he and Xiaofang are in the same room. It feels normal. Who is living with whose sister? In the same home?

Zhang Chen himself has no brothers and sisters. Xiao Zhao's younger brothers and sisters are of course his younger brothers and sisters. Precisely because Zhang Chen himself has no brothers and sisters, when he was a child, he actually longed for having younger brothers and sisters in his heart, so he treated Xiao Zhao very much. The relationship between Shu and Xiaofang is one step closer than others.

He was too familiar with the two of them. When Zhang Chen and Xiao Fang were together, everything they did felt very natural. It was like a brother and a sister getting along like that. It was even higher than that. Xiao Zhao was originally at her home. , is the head of the family. Xiaofang and Xiaoshu see her as more than just a sister. All their major decisions are made with Xiaozhao's help.

For this reason, Zhang Chen naturally felt like an elder in front of Xiaoshu and Xiaofang. He would also make decisions for them and take care of them like Xiao Zhao. And when the two of them encountered anything, Instead of discussing matters with their parents, they would talk to his brother-in-law and let him help them decide.

The relationship between them is so simple. Now they are asked to change this relationship, let Zhang Chen be Xiaofang and fall in love, and the brother-in-law become a boyfriend. Zhang Chen himself feels uncomfortable and a little funny.

He felt that he couldn't even speak to Xiao Zhao.

Zhang Chen shook his head and decided not to think about it. He said not to think about it, but his thoughts still stayed on this matter. He thought about how they are now, and he and Xiaofang living together would be a bit dazzling in the eyes of others. ?

Looking back and thinking about it, he felt that his mother and Xiao Zhao's mother even deliberately wanted them to stay together for a while and encouraged them to be together, so every night after they finished eating, the two old people would talk to them Say, you go back.

Now that I think about it, the words of the two old ladies had a profound meaning!

Zhang Chen couldn't help but smile. He looked at Xiaofang's room and thought that he would forget it this time. Xiaofang was going back to the United States in a few days anyway. After she left, Zhang Chen felt that he needed to make some arrangements.

No matter what happens, Xiaofang will always come back. Like Xiaoshu, she should have her own home. Zhang Chen decided that after Xiaofang left, he would go to Tan Shuzhen and buy Xiaofang a house. , should I buy this house in Shanghai or Hangzhou?

If Xiaofang will return to China to work in the future, Zhang Chen thinks it is more appropriate to buy in Shanghai. When Xiaofang comes back, she will definitely stay and work in Shanghai. Shanghai is the financial center. What is there in Hangzhou? What kind of finance can you do in Hangzhou? Finance means collecting deposits and lending money.

But if you don’t come back to work, but just come back often to visit relatives, then it’s better to buy in Hangzhou.

Zhang Chen compared Hangzhou and Shanghai. After comparing, he also started to laugh. Why are we comparing Hangzhou and Shanghai? Just buy one set at the same time. Anyway, Tan Shuzhen and the others are both in these two places. There is a project. If Xiaofang herself feels that there is no need for a house in the future, let her sell it by herself.

It's such a simple thing.

Zhang Chen stopped thinking about it, stood up, walked into the room, and saw Xiao Zhao smiling at him. Zhang Chen said, don't laugh, I know you will agree.

…

On January 4th, Xiaofang was going back to the United States. Zhang Xiangbei was still here and would not go back until the end of the month. Zhang Chen, Xiaowu, and Zhang Xiangbei drove to Shanghai Pudong Airport to see Xiaofang off. Just the same, just carrying a backpack, she said to the two old ladies, how good it is, so that I don’t look like I am going on a long trip.

When she said this, the two old ladies agreed. Originally, they felt that she would not bring this or that, and they were feeling sad. They felt that it would be too hard for her to bring nothing with her when she arrived in the United States. , I’m so unaccustomed to it. After hearing what she said, I felt much better. Looking at her, she looked like she was carrying her bag and going out to work, and would come back in the evening.

"Actually, it's not that far, just a dozen hours. Next time, you can go to the United States to see me. By the way, there is also a wholesale market in New York, which is full of Chinese stalls. It's the same as in China."

Xiaofang looked at the two sad faces and felt sad. She told them and they nodded repeatedly.

gone.

Standing at the security checkpoint, watching Xiaofang walk in alone, Zhang Chen felt a movement in his heart. He felt that this figure looked familiar. Then he remembered that time he was at Pudong Airport to send Xiaozhao to Beijing. Isn't that what happened? , their backs are really similar.

I don't know why, Zhang Chen suddenly felt sad.

Back in Hangzhou, Zhang Chen told Tan Shuzhen that he wanted to buy a house for Xiaofang. Tan Shuzhen agreed. She said that Xiaofang was not in a hurry anyway. The house in Shanghai, the land we bought last year, was good. On Century Avenue in Pudong, next to Century Plaza, let Lao Wan choose a house for Xiaofang in Hangzhou...

"Let Xiaofang be my neighbor. The townhouse next to me can be named under Xiaofang's name right away." Tan Shuzhen said.

"Isn't that what Zangzi left for himself?" Zhang Chen, of course, knew about that house, he asked.

Tan Shuzhen shook her head and said, "Do you think he will stay there again?"

Zhang Chen thought about it, and it was true that since Lao Tan had taken root by the Mishi River, Liu Ligan would definitely not live in that house again. Even if he was really with Tan Shuzhen in the future, they would still go there. I will live somewhere else instead of living with Lao Tan.

For a pair of natural enemies, even temporary peace is an illusion.

Zhang Chen said okay, let’s do this.

Zhang Chen asked Tan Shuzhen: "Have you sent out the open letter to shareholders?"

"It has been written, but Lawyer Yu said that there is no rush to publish it now. We will publish it when the annual report is disclosed. At the same time, we will wait and see the situation in the next two months." Tan Shuzhen said.

"How is the overall situation now?" Zhang Chen asked.

"It should be said that it is getting better, but it is very strange."

"What's wrong?"

"The number of second-hand housing sales in Hangzhou has actually exceeded that of first-hand housing. This has never happened before. I can't figure out why this is the case," Tan Shuzhen said.

"I don't know your real estate business, could this be related to the stimulus policy?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Maybe." Tan Shuzhen said, "If it is related, it may be related to tax reduction and exemption. There is a Spring Festival this month. I don't have much hope. I just hope that there will be a very good sales next month. In this way, I can do it before the annual report is disclosed, and I may not have to worry about the issues I’m worried about.”

In February, they originally expected the Jiangcun project to be launched at the end of last year. The Jiangcun project was delayed last year due to funding and the incident involving Liu Ligan. By the end of last month, Ms. Cai and their 5 billion After getting it in place, I was working overtime to catch up on the progress, trying to make up for the delayed progress before the Spring Festival.

Tan Shuzhen is counting on this project to give them a good start.

"Speaking of the Spring Festival, Tan Shuzhen, I remembered that we should go to Sanya for the Spring Festival this year. His parents, Xiao Wu and I have brought the pole with us. We have been lying to them that the pole cannot come back abroad. Normally, there is nothing. This is the New Year. , if it were still the two of them..."

"Okay, let's go to Sanya." Tan Shuzhen agreed before Zhang Chen finished speaking.

It was settled, and when Zhang Chen started writing the list of people going to Sanya, he felt sad again. In the past, they would come and go in large groups, and even Lao Ni would take his own plane to join in the fun.

But this year, Xiaofang and Zhang Xiangbei are not here, Liu Ligan is not here, He Hongmei is not here, Meng Ping is not here...

Meng Ping was not here, and even Qian Fang and the others were not in the mood to go. Xiaoshu and Yao Fen took advantage of this holiday to go to Japan again. This time, all the people who went to Sanya added up, and there was one more person per pair of hands. Among them Eight of them were old people, and the only ones left were him, Tan Shuzhen, and Xiang Nan.

There are really no people left to go to the stalls and eat night wine together, but even so, they must go, otherwise, Zhang Chen can't think of any good way to appease Liu Ligan's parents. He and Tan Shuzhen couldn't just go to their house for New Year's Eve dinner abruptly, right?
