Chapter 28: Possible Demolition
Everyone was happy with the meal.
Compared with last time, He Liangcong quietly raised Xiao Yingchun's position a level higher. He truly regarded Xiao Yingchun as a partner, not just a pretty girl who could be picked up.
Therefore, He Liangcong showed more respect for Xiao Yingchun in his words.
Dai Hengxin took the initiative to talk about the arrangements for the auction:
The first auction was scheduled for half a month later. The venue had already been found. He had asked a wedding company to arrange the specific arrangements and reception staff, and Xiaomei was responsible for following up.
"The auction company needs an auctioneer. I have already contacted a top auctioneer in the country. She promised to make time to come over for a day."
"For security, I found a security company owned by a friend. He is a former soldier, and the security personnel are all retired special forces soldiers. They are trustworthy..."
Dai Hengxin explained the past few days in a rambling manner, and Xiao Yingchun felt a little guilty: "Won't all these things delay the business of your pawnshop?"
Dai Hengxin laughed: "What's the delay? I just made a phone call. I don't have to do everything myself."
Speaking of this, Dai Hengxin seemed to remember something and began to explain.
"When the company does auctions, there must be someone to do the daily chores. Xiaomei is a distant relative of mine and she is also very attentive, so I let her take care of some of the daily trivial matters."
"Her salary comes from my dividends and does not increase the company's expenses."
Xiao Yingchun waved her hands when she heard this: "No need!"
Seeing Dai Hengxin was stunned for a moment, Xiao Yingchun hurriedly explained: "Her salary will be paid from the company account."
"Although we are a small auction company and we won't be auctioning precious antiques worth tens of millions, it should be no problem to support one person, right? It doesn't need to be borne by you alone."
He Liangcong nodded when he heard this: "Yes, yes, all expenses will be paid from the company account. If it doesn't work, pay from my account."
"How much money does a little girl make in a month? It's not even enough for me to open a bottle of wine..."
Dai Hengxin glared at He Liangcong, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Okay, okay, I know you have money."
"In this way, her salary will be paid into the company account. The company will give her 4,000 yuan a month, and the five insurances and one housing fund will be paid from Xinlong Pawnshop, so there is no need to pay repeatedly."
"Can you please stop annoying me with your extravagant spending?"
All three laughed.
The food was served. Today we had lobster fried rice, caviar with razor clams, and sea cucumber with green onions...
The whole table is full of seafood!
He Liangcong was particularly enthusiastic: "Sister, please try it. I specially asked the boss to prepare it. How does it taste?"
Xiao Yingchun ate the food and thought: It is delicious, but this meal must cost at least several thousand, right?!
That is to say, a young man like He Liangcong never treats himself badly when eating and always has the best food.
Dai Hengxin glanced at He Liangcong and said, "It's my treat today. Don't fight with me."
He Liangcong looked at Dai Hengxin with an unconvinced look: "Old Dai, you are being too polite, aren't you? This is a restaurant I have invested in. How can I let you two pay for it?"
Dai Hengxin said directly: "Then I won't come to this restaurant to eat anymore."
Xiao Yingchun also smiled and said, "I won't come either."
"Hey, hey, hey, can you two not be so unanimous? You really are a family?"
Dai Hengxin glanced at Xiao Yingchun and said, "Don't talk nonsense," but his eyes were smiling.
Xiao Yingchun paused and said seriously, "This company belongs to the three of us. It's not okay to ask you to pay the bill all the time. How about this?"
"In the future, if the three of us have a meal together, we can either pay on the company's bill or take turns paying."
"If you don't let me pay, when you order food in the future, we will all go out to eat rice noodles or fast food."
After hearing this, Dai Hengxin and He Liangcong were stunned.
The two men looked at each other. Dai Hengxin took the initiative and said, "Then let's take turns. Last time it was Mr. He who treated us, this time it's me, next time you treat us, okay?"
This proposal sounded reasonable, so Xiao Yingchun agreed and ate happily.
After Xiao Yingchun said goodbye and left, He Liangcong said to Dai Hengxin, "Old Dai, I finally understand. This sister looks easy to talk to, but she is actually very opinionated."
Not easy to soak.
Dai Hengxin also nodded: "Yeah. She... is quite special."
He Liangcong patted Dai Hengxin on the shoulder and expressed deep sympathy: "Brother, if you want to pursue her, you have a long way to go..."
Dai Hengxin was stunned: "What do you mean?"
When it comes to pursuing girls, He Liangcong undoubtedly has much more experience than Dai Hengxin.
He looked at Dai Hengxin seriously: "Don't think that she is always smiling. Don't you notice that she keeps a distance from you and me?"
Dai Hengxin thought: It’s true.
But "Isn't it normal for girls to keep their distance from boys they're not familiar with?"
He Liangcong waved his hand in disdain: "Who said it's normal? Do you believe that I can drive a Porsche around the street and take a girl to a hotel in a few minutes?"
"I still don't know the girl's name after this!"
Dai Hengxin looked at He Liangcong speechlessly: "That's a gold digger."
"Brother, don't say that. Not all of the girls who can get on my car and follow me are gold diggers. There are people from all walks of life here!"
Dai Hengxin was helpless: "Okay, okay, you are experienced and you have the right to speak. But she is different."
"That's why I said it's not easy for you to succeed!"
Dai Hengxin: "What do you mean by success? I'm serious! I'm going to get married. What are you talking about?"
He Liangcong sneered: "Come on! If you really want to marry her, can you get past your parents?"
Dai Hengxin: “…”
When Dai Hengxin left in a bad mood, He Liangcong suddenly realized, "Fuck! If you two are together, then I will be an outsider, right?"
"Old Dai! Old Dai! Wait for me..."
Xiao Yingchun returned home, opened the front and back doors as usual, and sat behind the counter to look after the shop.
In the afternoon, the business did not have much turnover, but several groups of neighbors came to show concern for Xiao Yingchun, all asking how the court session went for Xiao Yingchun today.
Xiao Yingchun told the whole story with a smile. The neighbors then sighed, criticized Ge Chunyu, sympathized with Xiao Yingchun, and praised Xiao Yingchun for being so kind to his relatives.
However, Ye Yubin breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Xiao Yingchun said. He hesitated for a long time before speaking quietly.
"I heard that this place is going to be demolished. It would be best if you could end your relationship with them for tens of thousands of dollars and sign an agreement not to involve the division of property in the future."
"Before they come to make trouble again."
Xiao Yingchun was shocked: "What?"
Ye Yubin looked around quickly and said, "It's enough for you to know about this matter, but don't tell anyone else."
"I know, I won't tell anyone." Xiao Yingchun suppressed her panic and made repeated assurances, and only then did Ye Yubin leave in his slippers.
Xiao Yingchun was very worried.
She didn't care about the money from the demolition, nor was she afraid of the people on her grandmother's side making trouble. What she was worried about was: if the house was demolished, what would happen to the Space-Time Supermarket?
Can the Space-Time Supermarket be relocated?
If the Space-Time Supermarket cannot be relocated and I firmly disagree with the demolition, will it be demolished forcibly?
If it is not demolished, it will be a nail house!
Will others think I am stupid?
