Volume 4: The World of Great Conflict Chapter 0570: Husband and wife love talk
"Liu Zi has already burned a batch, about 200 copies, but it doesn't seem to have a significant impact on the price. The price of a monkey stamp is only about five or six yuan per piece now, and a full copy is a little more expensive."
"You don't care much about the stamps, do you?"
"Well, I didn't ask too much. At first, I saw the benefits in it, so I asked Men San'er to buy the 5250 version. At that time, I had a plan to operate it properly. But later, Nan's business became bigger and bigger, so I didn't have the energy to pay attention to this matter.
At present, the idea of hyping the monkey stamps has faded. "Nan Yi said, opening the 83-type kettle on his back and handing it to Liu Zhen, "I plan to wait a few years, when I have the time and energy to do this."
Liu Zhen took a sip of water and handed the kettle to Nan Yi . "You are not in a hurry to do this. Is it related to this partnership?"
Nan Yi took the kettle, drank two sips, and screwed the lid on. "That may be the reason. It's easy to share adversity, but hard to share prosperity. In the past two years, I consciously let Men San'er and Wei Min take charge. Fortunately, they can both stand on their own."
"It's true that the relationship with the partners is difficult. Why don't you think about changing their positions?"
"You mean to make them subordinates?"
"yes."
Liu Zhen nodded.
"It's not appropriate. I have known them both since childhood, especially Men San'er. When I met him, I was penniless and had nothing. Although I have always been the boss and he is the subordinate, the relationship between him and me has always been a partner, not a superior or a subordinate.
As a human being, it is easy to adapt to going from low to high, but it is difficult to accept going from high to low.
At the beginning, the stall is not big, and it is okay for everyone to work together, but at a certain stage, everyone has to disperse and set up a new stall of their own, a stall where they have the final say.
Whether it is the Weimin Regeneration Group or the Taste of Earth, I rarely participate in specific affairs now. I just regard myself as a director who does not take care of things. Unless there is a major decision, I will never say anything. "
"But what if one of Men San'er and Xian Weimin can't hold up the show and ruins the business? It's too sunny, find a shade under a tree."
Nan Yi helped Liu Zhen to the shade of the tree, saying, "Let it fail. In business, there are bound to be gains and losses. We can't force every investment to make money. We have to allow for losses. As long as the success rate of the investment is more than 70%, it's fine."
"Seventy percent is not low."
"Um."
Nan Yi asked the school beauty to bring a folding chair and set it up under the tree, then helped Liu Zhen sit down on the chair.
After Liu Zhen sat firmly, Nan Yi took out a palm-leaf fan and fanned her. He used skillful force and the wind was gentle, just touching the surface of her skin and then going away, without ever penetrating into her bones.
Liu Zhen closed her eyes slightly in comfort, her brows relaxed.
"Nan Yi, have you been very hard during this period?"
"It's okay. It's not too hard. You are now the first-level protected person in the family. It is my duty to serve you."
"Tired?"
"I'm not tired. I'm in good health and can handle it."
" No, I'm asking if you're tired." Liu Zhen opened her eyes, looked up and said, "Is it tiring to serve a woman you don't love?"
"Why do you think I don't love you?" Nan Yi asked in surprise.
"Don't you know that women are very accurate in some aspects? Although you do a good job, much better than most men who are husbands, I still can't feel much love from you."
"Don't you know my character very well? I'm a sophisticated egoist. To put it bluntly, I'm a selfish person. How much can you expect me to love you?"
"Tsk, I don't believe it. There must be a woman who occupies a very important position in your heart. I just don't know who this woman is. However, she shouldn't be one of those women." Liu Zhen stared straight into Nan Yi's eyes and said, "Am I right?"
Nan Yi looked up in a daze in one direction and said faintly, "There was a woman who lived in my heart for a long time, but that was a long, long time ago, so long that I can't even remember what she looked like.
In my heart, you are my wife through thick and thin. A friend who has shared our hardships should never be forgotten, and a wife who has shared our hardships should never be divorced.
Being selfish doesn't mean I don't know how to be grateful. Well, the word gratitude may not be appropriate. You only eat what's ready and don't work hard with me. Maybe you saved the Milky Way in your previous life. In this life, I am the unlucky one among humans to repay you. "
"It's about investment, what's the point of repaying a favor?" Liu Zhen said with a sneer.
"Give up on it. This investment of yours is part of the 30% that you lost everything. It's a huge loss. Not only did you not get any return, but you also raped me. Look here, I'm regretting it so much." Nan Yi pointed to his stomach and said.
"What do you mean by strong? A dog can't spit out ivory. Besides, why is there no return? Don't you have my love?"
"Yes, yes, it's my fault. I didn't take your love for me into account."
When it comes to emotional issues, Nan Yi will never argue with a woman. If he insists on arguing when he knows he can't win, isn't that a mistake in his brain?
If you care about the other person, just admit your mistake cleanly and neatly. Women don't value material things, they only value attitude. If you don't care, you should break up and divorce.
But if you have children, then think of Goujian licking his bladder and be patient.
Anyway, if you hold a lot of anger in your heart, it will cause depression and harm your body, and you won't live long. From the day you feel that you can't live anymore, you will only have about thirty years to live. You open your eyes and close them, and you can't open them again.
"Humph, your apology is so perfunctory." Liu Zhen said, and suddenly pointed in a direction and said: "I want to eat big red fruit."
Following the direction, Nan Yi saw an old lady pushing a bicycle. There was a white wooden box on the backpack rack with the words "彐糕" painted in red on the box. She was an old lady selling popsicles.
"The big red fruit is so old that it may not be available for sale. I'll buy you an Arctic Ocean double stick. You eat half and I'll eat the rest. Don't eat too much of it because it's cold." Nan Yi said against his will.
"Okay, go quickly, there are big red fruits. Buy some. I'm craving for some."
"oh."
Nan Yi agreed and walked towards the ice cream cart.
"Are there any big red fruits?"
When he walked to the ice cream truck, Nan Yi asked the ice cream lady. He expected to get the answer "no". The big red fruit was sour and sweet, and Nan Yi didn't like it very much.
But it is unlikely that he will get what he wants, because the four kinds of popsicles, red bean popsicles, big red fruit popsicles, big ice cream and double sticks, are now popular in Beijing. It is usually impossible to run out of them when pushing an ice cream cart outside, unless you are lucky enough to encounter the moment when they are sold out.
"Yes, the goods have just been delivered."
"Then have one."
After handing over the money and getting the change, Nan Yi took the big red fruit, unwrapped the paper, broke off three-quarters of the popsicle, pulled it off the stick, stuffed it into his mouth and bit it with a gritted teeth.
He walked back to Liu Zhen and handed her the big red fruit. "Here you go. Just put it in your mouth to satisfy your craving."
Liu Zhen curled her lips, took the small bunch of big red fruits and stuffed them into her mouth. She licked them twice and her face was full of satisfaction.
"This is the fifth big red fruit I've eaten, and it's a limp one."
There was a hint of bitterness in Liu Zhen's words. The less you eat, the more profound the memory. Every one of them would be engraved in her heart. Perhaps that big red fruit even carried with it the loss of self-esteem.
"Don't dwell on the past, happiness has already knocked on your door. If you're willing, I'll go to the factory that makes the big red fruit and take a look to see if I can contract the factory to produce big red fruit that's one meter by two meters for you, so you can enjoy it all at once."
The first shrimp cracker that Nan Yi, who was born in a poor family and had a greedy taste, ate was the one that his friend dropped on the muddy ground after the rain and was too lazy to pick up. When no one was around, he went back and bent down to pick up the shrimp cracker that was covered in mud.
Nan Yi clearly remembered the steps of eating that shrimp stick, and the taste is still fresh in his memory.
"It's so big, do you want to freeze me to death?" Liu Zhen narrowed his eyes and spat with a smile.
"hehe."
Nan Yi smiled knowingly and sat cross-legged next to Liu Zhen.
The two of them ate the big red fruits, looked at the Donghuamen city gate tower, and chatted casually.
Just as the two were being affectionate with each other, a few buses came from a distance and stopped on the side. A large group of people got off the buses. Some of them looked like they were from state-owned enterprises, and some were obviously tour guides. The rest, you could tell from their appearance, behavior and clothing that they were Japanese.
Suddenly, Liu Zhen pointed at one of the little girls and said, "Nan Yi, look, is that Tanimura Nobuyuki?"
Nan Yi noticed the strange little girl among the group of old men. "It's Xiao Lin Lingzi. Isn't the visiting delegation supposed to go to the south? It's already the middle of the month. Why are you still staying in Beijing?"
"Not just the south, there's a road heading to the ancient city. It's strange, why haven't they set out yet?" Liu Zhen roughly estimated the number of people, "No, there are only about 200 people here at most, where are the others?"
"There are too many people, so we have to receive them separately. It's not surprising. Let's go. There are foreign guests. Let's stop standing here. I'll go back and watch "Oshin" with you."
"What a pity! If there weren't so many people, I really want to get an autograph from Kobayashi Lingzi." Liu Zhen said regretfully.
"Don't feel sorry, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
"Well, let's go back. I don't know when this TV series will be broadcast on TV. I don't understand Japanese, and it's too tiring to read the subtitles."
"Ashin" is currently only available in Japanese version, but the one Liu Zhen watched had Chinese subtitles, which were added by Nan Yi, and it cost some money.
"It should be soon. This drama has very positive values and it doesn't involve politics. Maybe it will be aired next year."
"Very good, then I'll wait. Nan Yi, let's not go back to eat, let's eat outside before going back. Let's go to the state-owned restaurant near my home. When I was a child, I envied those who ate in restaurants."
"Okay, as you wish."
