Chapter 106: Short

11days ago Urban Novels 7
Until the winter vacation, Chen Hong didn't contact Li Siping to help him do anything. The two of them just occasionally sent text messages and called to share their learning experiences.

The college entrance examination is imminent and the study is heavy, and Li Siping doesn't even have time to sigh at the loss of being unable to get close to Li Yan

After two days of vacation after the final exam in the senior year, it was considered a repair, so I continued to start classes and accumulate strength to sprint for the college entrance examination.

Chen Hong's school is similar, so when she returns to Beijing from Shanghai, it's almost the Little New Year

Li Siping will have a holiday a little later. On the day before the Little New Year, he contacted Chen Hong to invite her to dinner.

Chen Hong did not agree, saying that since Li Siping was on vacation, she might as well come and be a partner.

Li Siping was not polite, and agreed directly, asking Chen Hong who he wanted to call, and he helped contact him

Chen Hong thought about it and still didn't call the junior high school classmates. She just said that it was the ones who went to her house to play last time.

Li Siping understood what she meant. If that didn't happen, Chen Hong might have been in harmony with everyone, but after experiencing that storm, in the eyes of some people, Chen Hong is no longer the Shen Hong he used to be. Of course, it was not her, but the eyes of the people around him.

Basically, the people who had eaten last time, Cheng Lu and Liu Ping, unexpectedly, the name was very special and the correction did not come, saying that he had returned to his hometown in Sichuan with his family.

Li Siping didn't look at the authenticity, so he took a nap in the afternoon, got up and cleaned up, and took a taxi to the hotel he had made an appointment.

As soon as I entered the private room, Chen Hong had arrived

But after not seeing each other for half a year, I feel like Chen Hong has changed a lot. She seems to have been a little thinner than before, but her figure is better, obviously not the original green apple smell

Li Siping was very sensitive to this, after all, he was a veteran of flowers, so he joked with Shen Hong: Shen Daban was full of spring breeze, was he just beginning to develop puberty?

Get out! Chen Hong simply replied to him, but her face was a little hot. She knew it clearly that her breasts must be bigger than before, and her butt seemed to have become a little more tilted...

What are you talking about? Chen Hong! A beautiful figure appeared at the door. Li Yan, wearing a pure white wool sweater and black glossy tights, was wiping her hands, looking at her daughter and smiling: As soon as I entered the door, I heard someone, get out, are you so unwelcoming to Ah?

Chen Hong smiled helplessly and said to Li Siping: There is no way, I have to take care of my mother at the class reunion. I guess I am the only one.

Hey hey! I won’t take such a badass! I’ll leave after eating! Li Yan’s face is innocent. If you can make up your mind to let me wait in the snow outside, then I’ll go out now!

OK! Chen Hong pressed her mother to the chair and said to Li Siping: Don’t be as knowledgeable as my mother. We will think she doesn’t exist later!

Li Siping did not intend to get involved in the bickering between the mother and daughter, and said with a smile: With an open-minded mother like Aunt Li, just be happy secretly and picky!

Mom, have you heard it? Someone is praising you!

Cough cough! Li Yan pretended to be reserved and sat upright and smiled: Well, kid Siping is still very sensible!

vomit!

Looking at the mother and daughter who were smiling, especially Li Yan, who always had a smile on his lips, Li Siping was in a daze. The beauty he had been thinking about day and night was right in front of him. He really didn't expect to see Li Yan today.

But he also knew that Li Yan had to follow her because she was worried about her daughter's safety.

Cheng Lu came the latest because of a traffic jam. When Chen Hong arrived, she was pulling Liu Ping and whispering, while Li Siping was asking Li Yan for medical questions.

Aunt Li, do you know isatis root?

Know Ah, a Chinese herbal medicine

I searched the Internet and found that there seems to be no special symptomatic treatment of this medicine?

Well, basically, it is targeting some epidemic diseases! Chinese patent medicines have never been able to become effective drugs to cure diseases due to unclear effective ingredients of the drug, unclear toxicology and drug efficacy mechanism, inaccurate quality testing indicators, insufficient clinical efficacy standards, etc.

So what is the medical effect of white vinegar?

White vinegar has a certain killing effect on pathogenic bacteria, but compared with medical disinfectant, the effect is much worse, so no one generally thinks about this. Li Siping's unsatisfied questioning made Li Yan very satisfied, but she was very curious. What he cares about these things.

What about garlic? Does it also have an effect on epidemic diseases in medicine?

Garlic... Li Yan smiled. That thing has a certain broad-spectrum antibacterial effect, but ordinary people cannot eat it for a long time. The taste alone is enough for people to bear, so it is difficult to achieve the expected effect.

Li Siping nodded, didn't say much to Li Yan

After all, Li Yan has been studying abroad. Many of her views are Western and she does not agree with some things about traditional Chinese medicine. She is not surprised.

The prophecy book only records one sentence: If you have the conditions, stock up on garlic, rice vinegar, isatis root, and try to stay away from big cities as much as possible

The sorting of any parallel content in the book is meaningful, so Li Siping's stockpile of garlic first did not meet expectations, so he instead stocked up rice vinegar.

He does not plan to stock up isatis root. On the one hand, the rice vinegar market is very large, enough to consume the remaining funds by himself. On the other hand, he has also inquired that isatis root preparations are nationally priced and the speculation is not very meaningful.

According to the content of the prophecy, Li Siping speculated that there might be a major outbreak of epidemic diseases, but the person who wrote the prophecy might have some concerns, so he did not directly explain this point.

Li Siping thought that the person who wrote these prophecies was used as a reminder, and the author must be clear about this, so there is no need to mention why he had to hoard these things.

He has been paying attention to various influenza outbreaks online for a while, but there has been no results. So today I met Li Yan and happened to ask these questions

You know I am not an expert in infectious diseases. If you are interested in this, I can introduce several domestic experts in this field to you. Li Yan has obviously misunderstood her thoughts, but if you want to study medicine, I don’t recommend you work in this direction. This subject... How do you say it? In short, I don’t recommend you to choose...

Aunt Li, you misunderstood, I don’t mean that... Li Siping quickly explained: I am a liberal arts student, and I can’t apply for the exam even if I want to study.

That's not a problem. There are also related Chinese medicine that can be reported, right? And if you really want to learn, what is this difficulty? Li Yan is very serious, but if you are not particularly interested in this, I don't recommend studying medicine. It's too hard and tiring, and there are too many things to pay...

If you just want to make a living, many professions are better than doctors

Li Siping nodded perfunctorily. He understood one thing, that is, everyone sees disadvantages when looking at the industry they are engaged in, because he is used to the benefits brought by this industry.

But of course he wouldn't argue with Li Yan. He was just asking for nothing. He happened to be confused about this, so he asked this question

A group of young people were having a chat while eating. Li Yan took a few simple bites and left the private room by the opportunity to call.

Li Siping has been secretly paying attention to Li Yan's movements. Seeing that she had gone out for a long time and had not come back, she knew that she would not come back until the dinner was over.

Fortunately, the few people are students and no one drinks. Although the joy of the reunion of the couple is very sincere, the separation is not long after all, and what should be talked about is over quickly, so everyone parted with joy.

Seeing Li Yan and Chen Hong get into the taxi, Li Siping waved his hand and walked home by himself

This time, Li Siping hesitated for a long time before making up his mind, but he still left a backup plan for himself. The property under his name did not move, and the funds in the account were still 40 million, which was equivalent to taking out all the income from the latest stock trading, but retaining the original basic market.

He was not confident in the contents of the prophecy, but was a little disgusted with this behavior that was similar to making money from the country. After all, he was still young and had not left some pure things in his heart yet, so he had three rules with Chi Yàn Ni.

Now Chi Yàn Ni has completed the acquisition of 900,000 tons of garlic, with an actual storage capacity of about 750,000 tons. The remaining storage will be completed one after another before the Spring Festival.

In terms of rice vinegar, it was already close to the limit of funds just after purchasing more than 200,000 boxes.

Chi Yàn Ni warned that some funds must be kept to deal with emergencies. Li Siping also agreed with her point of view. After all, making money is important, but it is more important to stop at the right time. Fortunately, the logistics cost of rice vinegar is much different from garlic. After all, the pricing is there, and Li Siping saved a lot of capital margins. With the 40 million he reserved, he can rest assured.

The days that followed were calm. As a senior high school student, Li Siping returned to school on the tenth day of the first lunar month to start classes. Chen Hong also returned to Shanghai early to start a new semester.

Li Siping still did not give up searching for information about epidemic diseases online. On the day of school, he saw an infectious disease called Atypical pneumonia appearing on an online forum. At that time, more than 100 people had been confirmed, most of whom were medical staff, and 2 had even died. It can be seen that its infectious intensity and great harm were

He kept paying attention to this matter, but there were very few news reports on the Internet, but when he was in class on the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Chi Yàn Ni sent a text message asking him to call him back after class immediately after class

Li Siping has always turned off his phone and turned on after noon after school, so it took nearly two hours before he could call Chi Yànni back.

Chi Yàn Ni reported something to Li Siping. Someone has contacted her to buy rice vinegar. The price has increased by four or five times, and the price of garlic is also rising. From the purchase price of 70 cents to now, it has increased to more than two cents.

Chi Yànni's advice is to send out some goods in small quantities and continue to wait and see for a while

Li Siping had never dealt with such a thing and didn't know how to do it appropriately, so he agreed to Chi Yànni's opinion. However, he set a standard for Chi Yànni, which is to use ten times the profit as the boundary, which can be low, but not high.

Chi Yàn Ni was a little confused. Some people actually disliked the money making a lot, but she was already used to Li Siping's inexplicable rules and agreed very happily.

Li Siping calculated that the average storage price of 900,000 tons of garlic is only 70 cents per kilogram, and the price of rice vinegar has actually doubled several times. Even if it is sold at the current price, the profit is quite considerable.

However, Li Siping was still a little hesitant when it comes to choosing morality and interests

Unlike Chi Yànni's bottom line, he has not yet fixed the bottom line for himself. He really cannot decide whether it is profit first or whether it is beneficial to the country and the people.

Fortunately, he is still young and has time to get involved

On Sunday morning just after the Lantern Festival, Li Siping, who was sleeping in, suddenly received a call from Chen Hong, saying that her mother, Li Yan, wanted to treat him to a meal.

Li Siping was a little flattered and asked Chen Hong on the spot why she inexplicably wanted to treat herself to a meal.

Chen Hong said it was to thank him for his help all the time, especially the money he lent to Chen Hong is now ready to be returned to him, and there are some things to do about buying a property, so I need to consult with Li Siping.

Li Siping was relieved. He cleaned up and said hello to his stepmother. When he arrived at Li Yan's house, it was not yet 11:00 in the morning.

After a moment the doorbell rang, the door was gently opened. Li Yan stood at the door, wearing home clothes and wearing an apron, and said with a smile: Why are you still ringing the doorbell? Don’t you have the key?

The charm at that moment made Li Siping stunned, but then he reacted and said embarrassedly: Aunt Li, don’t laugh at me, I don’t want you to point the gun at me again!

Hahaha! Still remember? Come into the house!

Li Siping's self-deprecating made the atmosphere less awkward. He changed into slippers, but he was still at a loss.

You sit and watch TV for a while. I cook two dishes and the meal will start soon. Li Yan smiled and was used to the uneasiness of the opposite sex in front of her, not to mention the big boy who was a classmate with her daughter in front of her.

Don't be nervous. Today, my aunt came to you. There are two main things. One is to return Chen Hong's money to you. Thank you for your help, so I invite you to have a simple meal. Another is that I plan to buy a house. I heard Chen Hong say that you have a better understanding of this, so I just took this opportunity to ask you for more advice.

Li Siping smiled and nodded, relaxed himself, and said: I know, Aunt Li, Chen Hong told me, see if there is anything in the kitchen that needs my help, why don’t I help you?

No, it’s almost done... Li Yan was polite, then thought about it, and said with a smile: That’s fine, you can help me, you know I’m too slow to cook...

Li Siping followed into the kitchen and looked at Li Yan as she was preparing to cook six dishes. The fish and ribs had been put into the pot. At this time, the heat was sizzling, and it smelled very fragrant.

Li Yan cooks slowly, mainly slow in washing vegetables, to put it bluntly, slow in the early preparation work

Onions need to be washed, ginger need to be washed, garlic still needs to be washed after peeling

If you accidentally buy leeks, you have to wash every one of them.

Li Siping doesn't care enough about water, but compared with Li Yan, it's still a big deal.

Seeing Li Yan washing a plate of mushrooms six times, it was almost white. Li Siping nodded secretly and would come to Li Yan's house for dinner in the future. He would be a stick.

I originally wanted to go out to eat, but then I thought there was nothing good to eat. I haven't cooked at home for a long time, so I just took this opportunity to improve the food! Li Yan seemed to be good at reading the mind and explained the reason for eating at home. In fact, it was the case that Chen Hong was not present, so it was a bit strange to invite her daughter's classmates to come to her home for dinner.

However, Li Yan doesn't care about this. She has an open-minded personality. With her experience in studying abroad, she is much more open-minded. She doesn't think it's okay to invite a big boy to dinner at home alone.

It's okay, it's good to eat at home, it's free... Li Siping agreed

Not so! It’s still interesting at home, do it yourself and have enough food and clothing! Li Yan started cooking, and the fragrance of a stir-frying pan wafted in the kitchen

Auntie, how much does this garlic cost per pound? Li Siping looked at the shopping bags on the table and used two of the four garlics.

Is it eight cents? Li Yan turned around and was a little unsure. I don’t look at the price of buying vegetables, so I won’t buy them once for eight hundred years!

80 cents per kilogram, one kilogram is one 6 yuan. The market price has risen so much. Only a woman like Li Yan, who is almost indifferent to the world, can not notice the changes in food, rice, oil and salt.

With Li Siping helping wash and pick vegetables, Li Yan's cooking speed has increased a lot. He knew that Li Yan cares about this, so he washes it very seriously.

A plate of fried pork with mushrooms, a plate of sour cucumber ham, a plate of vinegar and cabbage, pepper and potato slices, plus fish and ribs, it is also rich

Even though Li Siping was used to eating the excellent cooking skills of stepmother Tang Manqing, he had to give high praise to the dishes made by Li Yan, especially the pork ribs and fish. The flavor of the stewed is completely different from that of stepmother Tang Manqing. It has a sweet fragrance in its lightness, and the level of several side dishes is not low. From the cooking skills alone, Li Siping has ranked Li Yan before Teacher Ling, second only to stepmother.

Ling Baibing is delicious when cooking, but it has no characteristics. It belongs to the kind that will definitely go bankrupt when opening a restaurant; Tang Manqing is different. It is not only delicious when cooking, but also has its own style, and strives for exquisiteness. Li Yan has a unique taste, but in terms of color, fragrance and taste, there is still a gap between Tang Manqing

Li Yan poured herself a glass of red wine and brought Li Siping a bottle of Coke. The two of them feasted in front of the dishes on the table.

Li Siping ate a lot, and Li Yan was not reserved, especially Li Yan. The dishes she cooked were all the ones she liked, so she ate very happily.

Finally, I had almost finished eating. Li Yan was satisfied and drank the remaining red wine in the goblet, poured half a cup, and then started saying: I used to borrow money from you, and I will take it away when you left. In addition, I have some funds back now. I plan to use it to buy a house. I want to hear your suggestions.

If you don’t mind, I want to know how much money you have. Another thing is whether you plan to live in your own house or do you want to buy a house?

Li Siping put down his chopsticks and looked formal

Li Yan was amused by his solemn appearance and said casually: This money was made by me when I helped a pharmaceutical company to do a scientific research project. Later, I put the money to my classmate. What you know is Wang Haijun who went to Shanghai that time. I put the money in him. It turned out to be two million, and I made 800,000 in less than five years. A few days ago, I was busy using the money, so I asked him for it back...

Li Siping knew very well that Li Yan wanted to pay back his money and asked Wang Haijun for the money, so he said: Aunt Li, you don’t have to rush to repay me, and I don’t need to rush to do so. Judging from this income, it’s okay for you to put the money in Uncle Wang. Why don’t you study it and take him back? Another thing is that Chen Hong also needs to prepare some money when studying abroad in the future?

You thought too far, even Chen Hong had thought about studying abroad! Li Yan was a little relieved and said with a smile: I don’t care if Chen Hong goes abroad, so I will manage myself well. I plan to invest in real estate, and the main consideration is to be relatively stable. If Chen Hong chooses to return to China, it will be considered a place to stay. Even if he stays abroad, he can sell the house. I think at least he will definitely not lose.

This is true. Real estate is indeed stable as an investment. Li Siping nodded, but the real estate situation recently is not very clear. I suggest you can wait for a while before considering buying. There may be a big ups and downs in March and April, and it will not be too late to buy it.

Li Yan has been observing Li Siping's expression and found that when she talked about her daughter staying abroad, the boy did not change his expression. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but she concealed it very well and did not reveal it. She just said: Well, Chen Hong told me that you understand this, it seems to be really good! Then I'll wait a little longer, and you can also help the aunt watch it, remind me when the opportunity is right.

OK, no problem, Aunt Li! Li Siping agreed happily

After drinking and eating, Li Siping was reluctant to leave, but he also understood that it was unreasonable to stay there, so he said goodbye and left.

Li Yan didn't try to keep him, so he took out the money packaged in cloth and handed it to Li Siping, asking him to report his safety when he got home, and then sent him out.

Listening to the closed door behind him, Li Siping was secretly happy. It seemed that there would be opportunities and excuses to contact Li Yan in the future.
