Chapter 0111 – Family Matters
“This crap, it’s really troublesome. White Lion, don’t make trouble, go play by yourself.”
Zhuang Rui pushed away the white lion that drilled into his arms, looking at this black and unattractive stone in his hands, his expression was quite a bit helpless.
At this time from the police station incident, has been the past three days, that day Liu Chuan dad left, Zhuang Rui and Liu Chuan with the monkey Li Bing also left, but things did not end so easily.
According to Liu Chuan later said, the few members of the joint defense, all were dismissed cleaned out, and Hao boss’s brother-in-law because of the use of authority, to help their relatives for profit, was withdrawn from the position of deputy director, assigned to a combination of urban and rural police station to do the ordinary police to go.
As for the director of Wang, was also implicated by some, due to its team management is not good, resulting in police style corruption, was also withdrawn from the director of the position, transferred to another police station as deputy director, not a jerk to the end. Wang director is also considered to be unfortunate in the great fortune.
The most unlucky is that Hao boss, was detained for a day of security, put out, the guy did not dare to stay down in the flower and bird market, Liu Chuan simply let Zhou Rui, his facade sublet over, used as a mastiff in the future in the flower and bird market, an office, so far, this thing is considered to understand.
These days Zhuang Rui and Liu Chuan, including Zhou Rui, did not want to be idle, Liu Chuan for the land use contract and mastiff business license, the Zhuang Rui pulled a strong man, let him go to find someone to design the mastiff plan drawings, Zhou Rui naturally stayed in the flower and bird market, familiarize yourself with the operation of the pet trading process.
In 2003, although the network is not very developed, but find some mastiff information, or can be, Zhuang Rui in the online view of a few larger mastiff, after the bottom of the heart.
Zhuang Rui previously on the university, is known as the Department of Architecture domestic, although the different majors, Zhuang Rui also made several good relations with the Department of Architecture alumni, of course, are now entering the community, when Zhuang Rui and an alumnus working in Nanjing phone contact, put their own requirements out. And on the Internet will be the relevant information passed over, waiting for the other side out of the drawings.
These things Zhuang Rui handle are very smooth, did not involve him how much energy, but there are still three or four days to leave for Nanjing, and their own preparation of the gift is no way to come up with ah! Zhuang Rui has decided to put the stone in the jadeite as a gift to Qin Xuan Bing, just he racked his brains, but also failed to break the stone to open, but instead of the stone containing nail-sized jadeite, to the whole scrapped.
These days Zhuang Rui ran all over the entire Peng city hardware store, is not a sale of small grinding wheel grinder, he did not ask out in the end where to buy, see not a few days to go to Nanjing, Zhuang Rui in a hurry, think of a faint trick.
Zhuang Rui just ran to the pet market trip, on the pretext that they are at home on the wall to play a few eyes, Liu Chuan store a drill carried back home, while the mother is not at home, want to drill a few holes in the stone, and then knocked open with a hammer. Didn’t think he was not enough professional level, the hand is not allowed, a drill hit down, straight into the heart of the stone, that piece of emerald would have been small pathetic, was Zhuang Rui a drill whole crushed, fortunately, he is to take that emerald content of the small stone to do the experiment, otherwise, wait for him to understand the precious emerald, I’m afraid that is to cry without tears.
In fact, Zhuang Rui also know, casually find a mechanical workshop, the stone broken open, as easy as playing, but he did not dare ah! There is no good excuse, if you let those masters casually cut the stone, the stone inside the egg heart size of the emerald, will certainly be destroyed, but if you follow his instructions to break open the stone, and so after the emerald came out, then he can really have a hard time to defend. And this matter can’t find Liu Chuan to help, otherwise, after he gives the emerald to Qin Xuan Bing, even a fool will know what’s going on.
“Xiao Rui, what are you doing upstairs again?”
The voice of the big mom downstairs sounded again, I think she must have been startled by the sound of the electric drill just now.
“Nothing, big mom, just punched an eye in the wall to hang something.”
Zhuang Rui opened the window and replied back, he was now thinking about whether or not he wanted to buy a house outside. Here is really some inconvenience, if in Song Jun’s villa, not to mention the use of electric drills, is to set off firecrackers also no one to disturb.
Some self-deprecating shook his head, Zhuang Rui in his heart laugh at his own hands just have a few money, began to whimsical, three million dollars, has given Liu Chuan dialed over, now the remaining less than a million, even the villa’s garage can not afford to buy.
“Xiao Rui, come over for dinner.”
A knock on the door woke up Zhuang Rui, a look at the table, it’s already more than 12 o’clock at noon, after Zhuang Min moved to this side, he didn’t work again, at home with the children to do the cooking, Zhuang Rui anyway, every day is to eat ready-made.
“Uncle good ……”
Just entering the door of Zhuang Min’s house, he saw the little nui nui obediently sitting at the dining table, a small adult appearance, just after seeing the little white lion, immediately jumped down from the chair, the two little guys went to fight.
“Huh, brother-in-law. You didn’t go to work today?”
Seeing that Zhao was also at home, Zhuang Rui couldn’t help but open his mouth and ask, due to the fact that the place where he worked was a bit far away, Zhao usually didn’t eat at home at noon.
“Well, I don’t have much work these days, so I’ve transferred my vacation, you’re also going back to Zhonghai soon, right?”
Zhao’s mood was not very high, casually talking to Zhuang Rui.
“The efficiency of the factory is not good?” Zhuang Rui asked, his own family, there is nothing to be concerned about.
“Yes! After the restructuring. It became private, but our wages and benefits are less and less, so it’s no fun to do this.”
“Let’s eat first! What’s the point of talking about this with Xiaorui, if you work on it, you won’t do it, with your skills, it’s not the same wherever you work, Nui Nui, go wash your hands quickly, you’re not listening again.”
Zhuang Min heard her husband’s words, immediately took over, Zhuang Rui knows his brother-in-law honest, usually work more, talk less, now can say such words, must be the unit can not hold out.
Zhuang Rui in his heart deliberated for a moment, opened his mouth and said: “Brother-in-law, really can’t you resign from the unit’s work! I and Dachuan ready to engage in a mastiff, there is not much manpower, and then I have to go back to work in Zhonghai, you on my behalf, go to the mastiff to do it, water and electricity that work you know, we do not need to hire someone, do you think it’s okay?”
“Mastiff? I have not heard you talk about ah! Water and electricity work is very simple, usually pay attention to maintenance is good, do not need to stay there every day, just Rui, that can be stable? You know, I’ve been working in the organization for about ten years, this resignation, but the rice bowl is gone!”
After hearing Zhuang Rui’s words, Zhao Guodong first brightened up. Then became a little hesitant, a person in a familiar environment to stay for a long time, is generally not willing to move nest, not to mention his unit used to be a state-owned enterprise, although the restructuring is not very prosperous, but a month or more than a thousand dollars, in Pangcheng is considered a middle income.
Zhuang Rui has not spoken, Zhuang Min in the side jack: “Dry ten years and how, the unit to what you have, even a set of houses have not been divided, Guodong, I’ve long said with you, and your masters and apprentices out to engage in an automobile repair shop, certainly better than in the unit, you just do not listen to go to Rui that do it! Da Chuan you are also familiar with your own family’s business, can not treat you poorly.”
“Yes! Brother-in-law, now long gone iron rice bowl, early out of their own dry, the wider the road in the future, I now go back to work in Zhonghai, but also in order to learn something, and later still have to come out, if you feel that go to the mastiff dry is not good, you find a position for yourself, I pay, we invested in an automobile repair shop, or open a car line also ah!”
Although now only less than a million in hand, but after half a month, that Tang Pak Fu’s “Li Duan Duan Tu” framed, it is estimated that a large sum of money, Zhuang Rui this period of time on the Internet to check out, although Tang Pak Fu’s heirloom works more, but because of his reputation in the private sector is very loud, is to each piece of work are very sought after, like their own painting, due to the size of the relatively large, it should be valued at six million to Between nine million, with Song Jun’s person, I think he will not be catty about the price.
And sell the painting to Song Jun, Zhuang Rui will also be less trouble, after all, this thing is the black market transactions, Zhuang Rui and Song Jun and others do not have such a wide range of social relations, can be whitewashed painting sent to the auction house.
As for the investment in repairing the car factory, Zhuang Rui is not just talk, he is a professional in finance and economics, for the market is more sensitive to the time in Zhonghai observed that over the years private car ownership is more and more large, the future for the automobile derivatives of the industry, it will be red-hot up.
Since childhood, Zhuang Rui has been accustomed to saving, Zhuang Rui has more than three million, do not know how to spend the money, after a while and a few million into the account, if not now the stock market is not very good, he was thinking about is not the money into the stock market to go, brother-in-law if you are willing to do an auto body shop or open a car line, Zhuang Rui can not wait to go to the inside to invest in it, how to say it is also a fertile water flow outsiders field.
“Xiao Rui, to open an auto body shop but it takes more than 100,000, do you have that much money now?”
Zhao Guodong thought for a moment, in the unit dry is not much of a future, he is only in his early thirties, it would be better to come out to break out, just this upfront investment, he is not out.
“A hundred thousand or so? So little?”
Zhuang Rui heard froze for a moment, he thought to open a factory, how to also want a hundred and eighty million, did not think just need a hundred thousand, then he can now come out.
“Xiao Rui, you don’t understand this business, more than a hundred thousand is already quite a lot, if the scale is a little smaller, forty or fifty thousand dollars can also get up.”
Talking about their own profession, Zhao Guodong suddenly excited, breaking up the fingers began to count up: “In fact, open an automobile repair shop, the money spent upfront, and not a lot of money, in addition to the rent, is the equipment, four-post lifts and two-post lifts each to buy two, probably about 20,000 yuan, and then a medium paint booth should have a 40,000 yuan can be taken down, sheet metal muster machine and computer decoder need more than fifteen thousand, plus some small tools, more than one hundred thousand is enough.”
Listening to Zhao Guodong there eloquently, Zhuang Rui felt that his brother-in-law, not as mute as imagined, estimated that the idea of opening a factory, is not moving a day or two.
“Brother-in-law, I don’t understand what you’re talking about, let’s do it this way! You see if I take out two hundred thousand dollars, can I get the auto body shop up and running? If it’s possible, you can quit your job! I still have a hundred thousand dollars in my house, just go out and get another hundred thousand later.”
Zhuang Rui was a little confused by Zhao’s professional words, and simply did not listen, he directly gave the money is not finished.
“Two hundred thousand is enough, just Xiao Rui, do you still have that much money now? Although the dog is worth money, but you did not sell it?”
Zhuang Min’s two families don’t know that Zhuang Rui sold the manuscript, this Zhuang Rui just told Zhuang mother, that’s why Zhao Guodong has such a question.
“Oh, this period of time in the antique market, found a little treasure, changed hands earned a few million, sister, brother-in-law, you do not worry about the matter of money, in the future our days, will only live more and more red-hot.”
Zhuang Rui is not intended to hide this thing from his sister’s family, just that he has been busy for a while, did not care to say, and now Zhuang Min asked about the money, Zhuang Rui also said it in passing.
“Xiao Rui, what you said is true? How do I feel like listening to a story!”
Zhuang Min this period of time can feel, their oldest brother seems to change a lot, but also did not expect, has always been to take a dead wage brother, now actually pour up the antiques to, the heart is still some do not believe.
“Hey, old sister, you ask this how fresh ah! I have nothing to do to make up stories to coax the daughter to play is more or less, mom knows this, has not had time to talk to you, do not believe you go to ask our mom to go.” Zhuang Rui’s words, also let Zhuang Min two completely put down the heart, although the money is Zhuang Rui’s, but their own siblings, help each other out, that should also be a share of things.
“OK, then I go to the unit tomorrow, will put forward the resignation, but Rui, this auto body shop boss or you, I’ll take it as a part-time job for you, then I bring two apprentices out to do it together, do you see into it?”
Zhao Guodong also made up his mind, his auto repair technology is very good, big cars and small cars are playing around, and usually nothing to do is like to think about this, generally other people can not solve the problem, in his hands are not difficult, in the unit of the auto repair team is considered to be the backbone of the business, just usually silent, not very much by the leadership of the treatment only.
“Don’t, brother-in-law, let’s brother clear accounts, now there is a kind of investment called risk capital, that is, I put up the money, only shares, do not participate in the management, earn money dividends, lost counted my own. We also follow this model, I put out 200,000, accounting for 30% of the shares, your technical participation, accounting for 70% of the shares, but brother-in-law, if you take two disciples out to do together, I think it! How much to give the two people a little bit of shares, each half of the shares on the line, but this share to be out of your share ah!”
Zhuang Rui proposed to open the auto body shop, the intention is just to let the sister family, the days a little easier, but he knows, if he does not take up shares, this is a little bit of dead-eyed brother-in-law, is certainly not agreed, so only put forward such a program.
“This …… is not appropriate! Xiao Rui, otherwise you take up 70% of the shares, and the two disciples and I will take up 30%.”
Zhao Guodong felt that if the shares were divided like this, he had taken a big advantage of his brother-in-law, only others contributed money to have only 30% of the shares, after thinking for a while, Zhao Guodong re-proposed a way to distribute the shares.
“Let’s divide it as I said! Brother-in-law, I rarely have time to stay in Pengcheng in the future, the auto body shop is counting on you to do it, I’m investing the money, can I regenerate the money, in the future, but it’s up to you, brother-in-law, and again, the family is still relying on you.”
Zhao Guodong knew that this was his brother-in-law taking care of himself, just that he was dumb and couldn’t say anything nice, he could only nod heavily and said, “Xiao Rui, don’t worry! Tomorrow I’ll go and find a site, there’s a waste warehouse over the national highway, tomorrow I’ll go and take a look, if it’s okay then I’ll rent it and use it as a factory, you don’t have to worry about it at home, brother-in-law will take care of it.”
“Quickly eat! Light talking, the food is cold, Nui Nui, quickly go wash your hands, little crazy girl.”
Zhuang Min saw that her husband finally got the hang of it, she was also very happy, and brought out the soup that was stewing on the stove, and took a bottle of white wine, letting that brother and sister drink it, and went to serve her daughter herself.
Heart of the decision, it is like putting down a big stone, Zhao Guodong heart relaxed a lot, picked up the bottle of wine to himself and Zhuang Rui poured full of wine, clinked, “giggle” a cup of wine down to Zhuang Rui said: “Rui, if this can be done, I will go to Nanjing in a few days to buy equipment, this side of Pengcheng to expensive a little, by then we will have to go to Nanjing to buy equipment. To be a little more expensive, let’s go together! You also go to Zhonghai on the way.”
“Okay! By the time Dachuan if Nanjing to buy a car, let’s go together, from the highway is also faster, save the train crowded, but brother-in-law you have to hurry to the plant to implement down, as for the business license and so on, back to me to give Dachuan a phone call, so that he went to do it, he head familiar.”
Zhuang Rui and Liu Chuan agreed, after mentioning the Hummer in Nanjing, Liu Chuan that car, it is for Zhuang Rui to drive to Zhonghai, and now listen to brother-in-law, Zhuang Rui would like to Liu Chuan that car left to brother-in-law to drive, but this is something that he also have to talk to Liu Chuan, and now did not mention it to Zhao Guodong.
“The plant is very good to do, both sides of the national highway is a lot, where there are more cars to and from the car, also more bad, the factory opened in that guarantee is right, as long as the equipment is in place, at any time you can open.”
Zhao Guodong was naturally familiar with the line he had been in for ten years or so.
“Right, brother-in-law, do you know of any machine that can cut stones?”
Zhuang Rui heart moved a little, if the car accident, the door can not open, is not also to use a tool to cut open the iron door well, maybe that tool can also cut the stone it!
“Cutting stone? Yes! The factory’s cutting machine can, you ask this to do what?”
Zhao Guodong took a sip of wine and casually replied.
“Nothing, brother-in-law, is there a smaller tool, the kind you can hold in your hand and use?”
Of course, Zhuang Rui knew that the cutting machine could cut the stone, but if he could take out the stone, he didn’t need to look for Zhao Guodong, just find a stone carving factory and be done with it.
“Smaller tools? There are, you can use an electric cutter with a grinding wheel and diamond gears, that thing can even cut through iron, it shouldn’t be much of a problem to cut through the stone! But Rui, that kind of sawtooth wheel is very small, about the size of your palm hand, how big of a stone do you want to cut?”
Zhao thought for a moment, there was a kind of tool in his team, but he just didn’t know what Zhuang Rui was doing and if he could use it.
“The smaller the better! Brother-in-law, can you lend out that tool?” Zhuang Rui was overjoyed to hear that, it’s only good if it’s small! I’m afraid that if it’s big, it’ll be like that electric drill, destroying the emerald inside.
“Can is able, but tomorrow I am going to resign, if you are not in a hurry, wait a few days to go to Nanjing, I am going to buy one, do you think it’s okay?”
Zhao was a little hesitant, he will quit tomorrow, now go to borrow something, afraid that people will say that he is taking advantage of the unit.
“Is it sold in Pengcheng? Is it expensive?”
Zhuang Rui spoke out and asked, he ran several hardware stores in the past few days, none of them sold this kind of tool, otherwise he would have bought it home long ago.
“There is ah! It’s not expensive, the better ones are more than a thousand, the normal ones are just a few hundred dollars, go to the abrasive store and it’s for sale, there’s one over on Jianguo Road.” Zhao couldn’t figure out what this brother-in-law of his was up to, but still said what he knew.
“Hehehe, it’s fine, come on, brother-in-law, drink.”
Zhuang Rui is in a good mood at the moment, looking for a few days to find something, from the mouth of brother-in-law inquired, Zhuang Rui is ready to eat after dinner to go to sell that tool back, use it up and throw it to brother-in-law, anyway, the repair shop can be used, it is not a waste.
After eating and drinking, Zhuang Rui slipped out, threw the little white lion to the inamorata, went to the abrasive store that Zhao Guodong said, will be electric grinding wheel tool to buy back.
This tool is not large, only the size of a baby’s arm, and the drill is almost the same, are driven by the engine inside the rotation, but the front is not loaded with a drill, but the diamond grinding wheel piece, this thing is very broad role, specifically used to cut some of the finer items.
Zhuang Rui in the abrasive store plugged in the power to try, the sound is not big, Zhuang Rui thought for a while, first went to the bank, took out 150,000 out, back home, took 200,000 to brother-in-law, also did not have the heart to listen to the brother-in-law to analyze the situation after the opening of the factory, directly home drilled into the room of the miscellaneous goods, will be the door unlocked.
These days Zhuang Rui also checked some information, he also knows the jadeite is mined from the inside of the stone, and is divided into many kinds, the best is the glass seed of the old pit jadeite, this jadeite production out of a ring, often worth millions.
Zhuang Rui also ran a few jewelry stores in Pangcheng, but the most expensive jadeite jewelry there, but only more than 100,000, Zhuang Rui will be inside the black pimple stone and their own comparison, found that these finished jadeite sold in Pangcheng contained in the aura, very thin, far worse than their own stone in the piece of jadeite.
In fact, Zhuang Rui hands of the original stone, if placed in the eyes of gambling connoisseurs, absolutely worthless, because this stone a no pine flowers, two no python belt, only some of the size and shape of a variety of black and blue ringworm, this kind of stone in the eyes of the connoisseurs, it is not possible to have emerald, I do not know when Zhuang Rui’s grandfather is how to get these jadeite raw stone, but let one of the emerald in the hands of Zhuang Rui to see the light of day. .
“Hey, it really works.”
Zhuang Rui found a wooden box pad underneath, with his feet on the piece of raw stone, the electric grinding wheel will be electrified, after the original stone grinding up, he can clearly see the inside of the original stone, simply no matter what, directly to the middle part of the stone to cut.
Stone chips flying, there are a lot of them are splashed in Zhuang Rui’s face, hit his face vaguely painful, but at the moment Zhuang Rui is not to worry about, suddenly, Zhuang Rui turned off the electric grinding wheel, along with the grinding wheel issued by the “hissing” rotating sound, he picked up a slightly hot stone, a touch of moving green, from the grinding wheel cut the slit, reflected into Zhuang Rui’s eyes. eyes.
