Chapter 369 Don't Settle Her
Chapter 369 Don't Settle Her
Haicheng is worthy of being called a foreign land. Even though the country has undergone so many changes, it is still the most prosperous city in China.
Xu Yu was used to seeing the prosperity of Haicheng decades later, but he didn't have much feeling about Haicheng at this time.
Jiang Qingyun and Yang Wenhui, who were in the same car with her, were dazzled.
Yang Wenhui couldn't stop praising, "It's worthy of being called Haicheng. It's much more prosperous than our provincial capital."
The driver was a local, and upon hearing the compliment, he proudly replied in broken Mandarin, "That's right, our Haicheng has always been the most prosperous place in China."
Jiang Qingyun sat in the front and chatted casually with the driver.
When the driver heard that Xu Yu and his friends came from a remote town, a hint of superiority came into his tone.
Yang Wenhui and Xu Yu each held a baby. By this time, the babies were all asleep. Yang Wenhui whispered to Xu Yu, "There are so many of us. I wonder if it would be a good idea to stay in a guesthouse."
Xu Yu said, "Mom, there is a hotel in Haicheng. Let's stay there directly."
The driver heard this and told them about some particularly famous hotels in Haicheng. Of course, he also said at the end: "These hotels are definitely unaffordable for most people. I heard that the worst ones cost several yuan a night, while others cost more than ten yuan, dozens of yuan, or even hundreds of yuan a night."
"I see you're here to visit relatives. If your relatives have a house, it's best to squeeze in and stay there. Otherwise, go to a guesthouse. You don't need a letter of recommendation to stay in a guesthouse these days. Since there are so many of you, sleeping in a large dormitory will save you a lot of money."
Xu Yu smiled and said, "We have someone to arrange accommodation for us. We will live wherever they arrange it."
When they got in the car, they told the driver to follow the car in front. The driver glanced at the car in front and said after a while: "Your relatives are rich."
Then he said something in Haicheng dialect.
Xu Yu had been in Haicheng for several years and could still understand the language here.
The driver said, "You're a bunch of poor relatives. Which rich person would be willing to let you stay in a nice hotel? At most, it's just for show. You haven't seen the world anyway."
Liu Fengjie, who was in the car ahead, had already glanced several times in the rearview mirror at the rickshaw following them. Suddenly, he said, "Comrade Xu is really good-looking."
Liu Fengjuan warned him: "Don't set your sights on her."
Liu Fengjie shrugged. He knew he couldn't take advantage of this woman's idea. She held the capital they needed to make a lot of money. He preferred money to women. "I know, I know. I'm just praising her. After all, this is the first time I've seen someone so pretty and beautiful."
He Jingwen then spoke up, "I see that apart from Comrade Qiao, the other female comrades all have really good skin. Could it be the result of Comrade Xu's beauty and whitening medicine?"
"Correct."
"Then she is really capable."
"Ah."
Liu Fengjie then asked, "She brought so many people with her. Should we still take them to a nice hotel?"
Liu Fengjuan said to him: "Why don't you stay? If we don't even show the most basic sincerity, how can we discuss cooperation later?"
Liu Fengjie frowned: "I'm not saying that we can't let them stay in the hotel. It's just that with so many people, if we still follow your plan and stay in a good hotel, how many rooms should we open for them?"
"It depends on how Xiaoyu and the others arrange it. Three or four rooms will be fine."
“The accommodation fee is too high.”
"Second brother, if you want to make a lot of money, you must make a lot of initial investment."
Liu Fengjie felt that Xu Yu and the others were native rural people, and their vision must be narrow, and they couldn't tell good from bad. Why did they spend so much money to let them stay in such a good hotel?
But he didn't say that.
He Jingwen continued, "I've observed carefully. Besides Comrade Xu, Comrade Lu and Comrade Qiao should be quite capable. We need to pay close attention to them."
Liu Fengjuan hummed and said, "Xiaoyu's parents-in-law are probably just here to help take care of the child. Comrade Zhao is her sister-in-law, so she probably brought her here to see the world. As for the other Comrade Xie..."
Before she finished, Liu Fengjie continued, "I think Comrade Xie is the one who really came here to play."
At this point, he already had an idea in mind: "I think these people are easy to deal with. Let's take them to Haicheng for some fun and open their eyes. Then I'll find a way to make them feel the gap between them and us, and let them know that without us, Comrade Xu's beauty products wouldn't be able to sell in Haicheng. That way, we can take the lead when negotiating terms."
He Jingwen agreed: "Even if Comrade Xu's beauty products become famous in his province, if he wants to go beyond the province, he will definitely not be able to do so without other support. Let's let them see what we are capable of."
Liu Fengjuan didn't say anything, but it was obvious that she had the same idea.
The car drove for more than half an hour before stopping in front of a restaurant that looked very nice.
Xu Yu and the others got out of the car, and Liu Fengjuan and the other two had already walked over.
Xu Yu looked at the name of the restaurant.
Although it is not one of the well-known restaurants, it is not much different in terms of grandeur.
At this moment, all kinds of people are coming in and out.
Liu Fengjuan said, "This hotel is close to where we live and the city center. You can stay here."
Xu Yu nodded: "Okay."
After the others picked up their suitcases, Xu Yu and Yang Wenhui held the babies who had already woken up and followed Liu Fengjuan and the other two into the hotel gate.
Tangtang and Guoguo's eyes were still rolling around, and they were obviously curious about the magnificent hotel and the people coming and going.
Tangtang just watched quietly.
Guoguo would also talk to Xu Yu: "Mom, people."
She meant that there were too many people here.
Then he looked toward the street and said, "Cars, cars."
Xu Yu smiled and asked Guoguo: "Guoguo, do you like it here?"
Guoguo also grinned: "I like it."
Xu Yu said, "Then we will live here."
When the group of people walked to the hotel gate, the receptionist led them in.
There is a lobby inside, and there are many people in the lobby. In Xu Yu's eyes, it has a very Haicheng and retro feeling.
It was the first time for Zhao Cui'e to enter such a luxurious hotel, and she couldn't help but look around.
A group of people were led to the front desk, and the receptionist asked them how many rooms they wanted.
Liu Fengjuan asked Xu Yu, "Xiaoyu, how are you going to live?"
Xu Yu smiled and said, "My mom and I will live with the baby. My dad and Comrade Lu will live in one room, and my sister-in-law and the others will live in another."
Liu Fengjuan nodded and asked the front desk to open three rooms, and the one Xu Yu and his friends stayed in was the best suite.
When they checked into the room, people passing by would subconsciously glance at them.
After all, there was a group of people carrying large and small bags, and two such beautiful little babies, everyone was wondering where they came from.
After checking in, Xu Yu and his friends took their room keys and followed the hotel waiter towards the elevator.
When they got upstairs, Liu Fengjuan and the others followed them into Xu Yu's room. Liu Fengjuan asked Xu Yu, "Are you guys going to take a break first, or go out for a walk now?"
Xu Yu said, "Let's take a break first."
Liu Fengjuan nodded: "Okay, I'll have the restaurant bring you food. You can take a nap after dinner. I'll pick you up at five o'clock to have dinner and then take you out for a walk."
It's already past two in the afternoon.
Xu Yu: "Okay."
Liu Fengjuan took the two of them away.
After they walked out, Liu Fengjuan said to He Jingwen, "Just wait for them nearby and see if they have any needs."
He Jingwen nodded: "Okay."
After getting in the car, Liu Fengjuan said to Liu Fengjie, "Second brother, go buy some tickets for the opera house."
Liu Fengjie raised the corner of his mouth, already having an idea: "Okay."
Inside the hotel.
After putting away their luggage, they came to Xu Yu's room. Zhao Cui'e sighed, "I didn't expect Liu Fengjuan to have changed so much since she came back. She looks smart, capable, and neat. It turns out that she was buried in the countryside."
Although she had only met her a few times, everyone would talk about her every time she went back. In addition, she was one of her second brother's suitors, and her mother-in-law also mentioned her, so she had a deep impression of her.
Xu Yu hummed, "She wasn't someone who could stay in the countryside. If she hadn't been in poor health, she wouldn't have been able to marry Liu Yang."
Zhao Cui'e nodded: "That's right."
Xie Lange said, "I think Liu Fengjuan is very smart. When you discuss cooperation with her, Xiaoyu, she will definitely not let herself suffer any loss."
Xu Yu smiled and said, "She won't suffer any loss, and neither can I, so it all depends on who is smarter."
This made several people laugh.
