Rebirth 2011 Chapter 352

  Chapter 352 The price of growth

   "Old Xu, I have to obey what you say."

  Chen Jiangjun, who was looking at the menu with He Jingjing, couldn't help giving a thumbs up after hearing the other party's reason for opening the shop.

   Just looking at the decoration of this barbecue restaurant, it costs at least a million.

  He is still calculating the salary of five or six thousand and the monthly expenses of several thousand, worrying about when he will be able to afford a house in Hangzhou, and the other party spent millions to open a barbecue restaurant, just to win the favor of his wife.

  The fate of people is really different.

  I think back then, Xu Renshan was one of the poorer family in their high school class, but in a blink of an eye, he became the envy of the rich family like him, a migrant worker.

   "President Xu, you should not only open this store, right?"

  After ordering, He Jingjing smiled and asked the handsome guy opposite.

  As a native of Hangzhou, He Jingjing, who has a decent family background, thinks that she is more accurate in judging people, just like she can understand Chen Jiangjun's family conditions, but she is very motivated and belongs to a potential stock, so she did not refuse the other party's invitation.

  If Chen Jiangjun can work hard in a short period of time, get promoted and raise his salary, and his family can support him to buy a house in Hangzhou, He Jingjing may not be able to consider going further with him.

  The handsome guy in front of me, since he opened a barbecue restaurant of this size on this relatively remote Zijin Road, he certainly can't rely on this to support his family.

  If the opponent's family background is good, Chen Jiangjun can still take advantage of the opponent's momentum, and perhaps he can achieve a new level faster.

   "Well, I have opened a few other small companies. He doesn't need to call me Mr. Xu, just call me Lao Xu or Renshan just like Ah Jun."

  Glancing at the other party, Xu Renshan simply replied, and casually poured a cup of freshly ground hot soybean milk for the long-legged female student next to him.

"thanks."

  Seeing that Xu Mutou is still so caring, Li Yanfei has a happy smile on her face.

  Although Xu Mutou was reluctant before, it was all superficial, and he still cared about her in his heart.

   "Mr. Xu is humble. We are about the same age. Chen Jiangjun and I are still working part-time. You are already the boss."

  Did not follow the other party's suggestion to call "Old Xu". He Jingjing, who felt that she was not familiar with the other party, still maintained a polite posture, so as not to leave a bad impression on the other party.

  If it wasn't for the fact that the other party was already married, the female classmates she brought with her now were all quite dazzling, so He Jingjing probably didn't have other ideas in her heart.

   Now, it is natural to substitute Chen Jiangjun's ordinary female friend.

   "Everyone has just graduated, I'm just a little luckier than ordinary people. Like Ah Jun, the salary is raised once a year, and the annual salary of four to five hundred thousand in the future will be very fast."

   In this regard, Xu Renshan did not casually comfort others.

Looking at the trajectory of his previous life, Xu Renshan didn't know about Chen Jiangjun's specific development, but at a high school reunion, he learned that the other party bought a five- to six-million-dollar apartment in Hangzhou, with a monthly salary of five to sixty thousand. , belonging to the proper gold-collar class.

   It's just that Chen Jiangjun, who had been a programmer for more than ten years at that time, had a high annual salary and his head was bald.

   "Old Xu, in honor of your good words, I would like to offer you a toast."

  After listening to Xu Renshan's words, Chen Jiangjun, who felt very honored, picked up the wine glass in front of him, and continued to do it boldly.

   "I will drive later, so I won't drink."

   Facing the toast from his old classmate, Xu Renshan kept his promise to his wife, did not drink, and drank half a cup of warm soybean milk.

   Besides, now that drunk driving is being punished, his reason is very legitimate.

   For someone like Chen Jiangjun who hasn't bought a car yet, there is no reason not to drink, unless it is an alcohol allergy.

   Originally wanted to inquire about the specific company of the other party, but He Jingjing who was interrupted by Chen Jiangjun did not continue to ask, and waited for a chance to talk about it later.

   Besides, after everyone finished eating supper and separated, she could also ask Chen Jiangjun in private.

  During the casual chatting of several people, all kinds of barbecue ingredients were delivered quickly, and the exquisite blue and white porcelain plates looked very stylish, which was more in line with the price of the dishes here.

   "Student He, let Ah Jun roast what you want to eat."

  Put fresh squid and mutton skewers on the grill, Xu Renshan smiled and let the two people on the opposite side do whatever they wanted.

Not to mention, this specially designed oven is very convenient to use. The charcoal smell from smokeless charcoal grilling is sucked away by the special smoke exhaust vents on the upper side of the oven, which is completely free from the choking smell of ordinary grilling. smell.

  The last time I came here with my wife, I just used the barbecue grill to cook the soup briefly, and I didn't feel much. Now after Xu Renshan started grilling, he found that he felt very comfortable.

  Chen Jiangjun, who was sitting opposite Xu Renshan, also started to move. Barbecuing food is a man's home game.

   And He Jingjing, who had other thoughts, also temporarily let go of the little calculations in her heart and began to choose her favorite food.

  The environment and price of this barbecue restaurant are very suitable for her taste, so it is impossible to eat with friends in the future.

   "Bake this for me."

  Eating freshly roasted Chinese cabbage, Li Yanfei unceremoniously picked up two bunches of shiitake mushrooms and handed them over.

"Um."

   Putting the shiitake mushrooms on the grill, Xu Renshan continued to chat with Chen Jiangjun on the opposite side.

  Sitting opposite He Jingjing, her gaze stayed on this handsome guy and his female college classmate for a moment, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

   "Ah Jun, where do you live, do you want me to send you off?"

  After eating supper, Xu Renshan looked at Chen Jiangjun and Chen Jiangjun who were in good condition, and asked with a smile.

  If the relationship between Chen Jiangjun and He Jingjing was good enough, Xu Renshan might not ask so abruptly, so as not to disturb the good opportunity of his old classmates.

  After all, the night is long, and lonely men and widows walk on the road, and they may walk to the hotel.

  However, when eating supper earlier, Xu Renshan found that Chen Jiangjun's progress was obviously in its infancy, and the two of them hadn't even touched each other, so they didn't even think about assisting.

  In particular, He Jingjing took a taxi home when she was about to go out at the banquet, and Chen Jiangjun, who didn't have a car, had no drama at all.

   "Okay, I don't live far away, please help me send Jingjing back later."

  Hearing what his high school classmates said, Chen Jiangjun didn't think much about it, and nodded in agreement.

   There is this enthusiastic high school classmate, he feels fit and honored, and feels that he has a good face in front of the beautiful classmate He Jingjing.

"Can."

  Nodded, Xu Renshan did not refuse.

   "Thank you Brother Xu."

   After getting along with each other during supper tonight, He Jingjing, who got to know her a little better, changed her name.

   Naturally, she sat in the co-pilot seat, because she tasted a few beers 'curiously' while eating supper tonight, and Li Yanfei did not drive for safety reasons, and took Xu Mumu's car back.

  He Jingjing, who had a flash of thought in his eyes, sat in the back seat, and together with Chen Jiangjun, there was no dissatisfaction.

   When she got into the car, He Jingjing subconsciously looked at the dashboard in front of the driver's seat, and found that the BMW had only driven more than 2,000 kilometers, so she knew that the other party didn't drive this car often.

  A young rich man who casually spends several million to open a barbecue restaurant, owns several companies, how could he only drive a BMW 5 series, presumably the other party should value the friendship with Chen Jiangjun, a classmate, and did not drive any luxury cars.

  Perhaps, Chen Jiangjun can really catch up with the opponent.

  In contrast, Chen Jiangjun, who was sitting in the back seat of the same car with He Jingjing for the first time, smelled the light perfume on the other party's body, and his heart beat a lot faster.

  However, Chen Jiangjun felt that it should be because he drank a lot of wine.

   Not to mention, He Jingjing smells pretty good, as expected of the girl he likes.

   "Ah Jun, where do you live?"

  Starting the car, Xu Renshan asked Lao Chen who was blushing behind him.

   "Anthracene, I live right in front"

  Hearing Xu Renshan's question, Chen Jiangjun came back to his senses, and pointed to the location of the rental house.

  Because the company is nearby, Chen Jiangjun, who had just been transferred from Shanghai, rented a house in a mid-range community next to the company, with one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom. The rent is not expensive, and there is also a rental subsidy from the company.

  Getting off the car at the entrance of the corridor in his own community, Chen Jiangjun lowered his head and said a few words with Xu Renshan and He Jingjing respectively. He watched the taillights of the BMW disappear at the corner of the street before turning and entering the stairs.

   "Brother Xu, thank you so much for today."

  BMW parked in front of her house, He Jingjing smiled and thanked the handsome driver in front.

"You're welcome."

  Nodding and smiling in response, Xu Renshan started the car without stopping when the other party got off the car.

   Seeing that the other party's house was a common local household, Xu Renshan knew that the other party's family background should be okay, and he became worried about Chen Jiangjun.

  Not to mention the prejudice of Hangzhou locals against outsiders, the value of this house, Chen Jiangjun will not be able to afford it in the next ten years of hard work.

  What's more, if a man and a woman start to develop a relationship, they will enter the age of talking about marriage in less than two years. What capital does Chen Jiangjun have at that time.

   Like him, beautiful wives don't need any betrothal gifts, and they also promise to give hundreds of thousands of living expenses every month, and finally give back billions of start-up funds. The whole world may not be able to find a second one.

   Survivor deviation, he is the only one.

   "Looking at it like this, it's quite difficult for your high school classmate to catch up with that He Jingjing."

  The BMW was driving smoothly, and Li Yanfei, who felt that the atmosphere in the car was too quiet, started the topic on her own initiative.

   "How did you see it?"

  Hearing what the long-legged female classmate said, Xu Renshan, who was in a fairly good mood, asked with a smile.

   Idle is also idle, and it is not bad to have a girl to talk with while driving.

"During the barbecue just now, your classmate Chen was trying his best to be courteous, while that He Jingjing behaved very plainly. In addition, the family backgrounds of the two are quite different. Women are strong and men are weak, so classmate Chen will only be a candidate for the other party. , or the kind that is not ahead.”

   Regarding this point, Li Yanfei believes that her observation ability is still good.

  Although Concubine Li Yan doesn't understand the troubles of ordinary people, the older sisters and colleagues in her office can chat. When she is free on weekdays, she listens to this kind of gossip from parents a lot.

  Especially, the concept of some middle-class people in Hangzhou is full of malice towards ordinary outsiders.

  What is the example of the woman asking too much for the wedding gift and the man having to borrow money to buy a house? Li Yanfei has summed up a lot of experience after listening.

   Fortunately, she doesn't need to think about this kind of trouble in the future.

  After snatching Xu Mutou over, not to mention the dowry, even the pocket money of more than 100 million in her account can be given to the other party.

   "Good analysis, continue."

   Xu Renshan nodded his approval for Li Yanfei's observation ability.

  Seeing Xu Mutou's approval of this topic, Li Yanfei continued enthusiastically: "However, if classmate Chen can get on your line, He Jingjing may move his candidate position forward a few times."

   "You think so highly of me?"

   Unexpectedly, he was involved, Xu Renshan smiled noncommittally.

  He didn't show any capital in front of his old classmates at all. It would be too exaggerated if He Jingjing had such an idea based on a supper.

   "Of course, in my eyes, you have always been the best."

  Holding her delicate face in both hands, Li Yanfei looked affectionately at her sweetheart in the driver's seat. Xu Mutou, who was driving seriously, was still so handsome.

  Emotion towards Xu Mutou, Li Yanfei never concealed her feelings for Xu Mutou after the big sister next door got ahead regardless of morality.

"speak English."

   Xu Renshan, who did not turn his head to look at the long-legged female classmate, but ignored the fiery gaze, looked straight ahead and said calmly.

"When I got in the car just now, I found that He Jingjing looked at your car mileage and deliberately inquired about your business while eating supper. She must have guessed that you have a lot of money. Considering your current age, she will probably put you Think of it as the rich second generation of a billionaire family. In this case, classmate Chen will befriend you and gain some connections. It will not be difficult to gain a foothold in Hangzhou in the future."

   Putting away the joke, Li Yanfei analyzed everything in detail.

  As the person who paid the most attention to Xu Mutou tonight, Li Yanfei could clearly see He Jingjing's concern for Xu Mutou.

   Putting herself in the other party's shoes, Li Yanfei made a good guess.

   "Speaks very thoroughly."

  After listening to Li Yanfei's analysis, Xu Renshan was deeply moved, but his face remained expressionless.

   In the blink of an eye, that innocent long-legged female classmate from back then has broken away from the innocence of the ivory tower and slowly understood the ways of the world.

   I don't know whether to be happy for the other party or lament the price of growth.

  Comparatively speaking, Xu Renshan was even more impressed by the cute and silly long-legged female classmate back then.

  After all, the two of them were separated in the previous life, and the number of times they met after graduation was very few. Xu Renshan's deepest memory stays in college.

  Perhaps, it was also the reality of society that made the two of them in the previous life not cross the line of dispensability.

"Thank you for the compliment."

  Regarding Xu Mutou's affirmation, Li Yanfei was in a very happy mood, and then chatted about another interesting thing about the studio.

   It's a pity that this itinerary is a bit too short, Li Yanfei felt that she had arrived at her own community before she had said a few words.

  As usual, she got off the car at a corner where she couldn't see her home, and Li Yanfei walked back home briskly, as if she didn't know that there was a silent guarding figure behind her.

   Driving back home, when Xu Renshan returned to the bedroom, he saw his sleeping wife and quietly walked into the bathroom.

  Although the weather has been getting colder recently, Xu Renshan still maintains the habit of taking a bath once a day, especially today he smells of barbecue.

"I'm home."

  Wait for her husband to go to bed, Shi Yuxuan woke up, muttered something softly, then turned her body sideways, put one hand on her body, and then fell into a deep sleep with her eyes closed.

"Um."

   Similarly, Xu Renshan soon fell asleep.

  December is close to the Gregorian calendar, and the weather in the south of the Yangtze River is gradually cooling down. Hangzhou is no exception. However, in the bustling shopping center in the city center, you can still see chic girls in windbreakers and stockings who are not afraid of the cold from time to time.

  Compared with the refreshing summer dress, the standard attire of these white-collar girls is still more charming.

  At this time, Xu Renshan, who had just bought a cup of hot Jiaoma at the MC coffee directly operated by his company, was not in a good mood.
