Hu Lin is also twenty-eight this year.
There is an elder brother and younger brother above.
My eldest brother is in his thirties and has not studied since he graduated from elementary school.
It was only because of his elder brother that he could peacefully go from studying in the countryside to this big capital.
Everyone in rural areas understands everything.
Not to mention one teacher from Beijing, even if he got admitted to a university in Beijing, he would be well-known in the whole village.
Hu Lin doesn't like to socialize very much, mainly because when he was in college, many classmates in his class looked down on rural people like him.
So, after graduation, he rarely contacted his former classmates.
After working for several years, I spent more than half of my money frugally and gave it to my family.
The remaining point is that I bought this Corolla in installments, and the acquaintance with Chen Qi was purely accidental.
When I hit her car, I always felt like I had to lose a year's salary.
Of course I know Porsche.
I just didn’t expect that when I met a good person, I wouldn’t ask him to pay for it.
Hu Lin did not leave in a responsible manner, and even took the initiative to take her to repair the car.
The two got to know each other like this, and later met her mother. Peng Ying liked him very much.
Now that she has met her biological brother again, it seems that she does not agree with what she said about having only a little money.
You can eat with A-list celebrities, it should be quite expensive.
He didn’t know exactly how many there were.
"Brother, we haven't reached that point yet?" Chen Qi blushed.
"You are not young anymore. Love is as ethereal as playing cotton."
Chen Pingsheng said: "Get married if you think it's appropriate. Only then can the relationship be truly stable throughout the child's life."
Today's young people often like to wait for three or four years before getting married.
Facts have proved that anyone who likes to be in love for such a long time is basically goodbye.
In those days, the older generation would get married immediately after the two families met.
I don’t see many people getting divorced.
On the contrary, the divorce rate is getting higher and higher after free love.
Yang Mi secretly felt that she shouldn't have come to this meal. She always felt that Chen Pingsheng was a bastard.
Keep hinting at her.
Honey, you are not young anymore.
No one is older than my sister, are you sorry?
It’s the 21st century, but this guy still looks like he’s living in the 1990s.
If she hadn't been talented, she would have known it was a family matter and wouldn't have interfered.
She had already jumped up and kicked him.
The gap between the two is still too big, and it will take some time for them to really get along.
Fortunately, Chen Qi is not like Chen Anan, whose family became rich after a few years.
I'm used to being lavish.
She didn’t start getting rich until she came to the capital and relied on her brother.
So, the person she subconsciously likes is still the same as she used to be.
Compared to the previous one, Chen Pingsheng was quite satisfied with Hu Lin.
The main thing is that his mother Peng Ying nagged me several times, saying that being a teacher is a sacred profession.
It cannot be measured in terms of money.
Chen Pingsheng sometimes wanted to tell her, are you still living in the past?
Which of the current teachers doesn’t make up lessons?
Hu Lin was stunned. He didn't expect it to be so direct.
Chen Qi pulled him aside. She had said several times that if the two of them wanted to truly be together, her brother would have to agree.
In this situation, her brother obviously agreed.
It’s just that he can’t come up with the gift?
There is a saying, dowries and betrothal gifts are only given by people who have no money at home.
In the name of traditional etiquette, he is selling his daughter.
In the past, if you married someone whose family was poor, you would be blessed.
Because girls from this kind of family will help you do whatever you do.
It’s really not ordinary diligence.
Marrying a girl from a poor family now really fits that sentence.
It’s all about poverty alleviation.
Take hundreds of thousands of gifts first, and there are a lot of things waiting for you to spend money on later.
As for Chen Qi, how could she ask for a bride price?
It is estimated that one or two houses in the capital will be sold out.
Hu Lin did not expect that this relationship would develop so quickly. Except for being a little unconfident, everything else was very relaxed.
Because there is no need to buy a house in the capital, and there is no need to prepare betrothal gifts.
In fact, Chen Pingsheng also investigated this person before agreeing so quickly. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he would not have said this first.
It's not like his sister can't get married.
Finding a reliable and down-to-earth elementary school teacher seems to be a good fit for his little sister.
As for the marriage between the two families behind, let’s wait until his elders come.
Back at the company, Yang Mi started to act angrily.
Chen Pingsheng ignored her.
This woman is not young anymore. In addition to being very good-looking, she also has big breasts.
My legs are a bit long and I can make a lot of money.
It seems that there are no advantages.
However, Yang Mi still asked him, "Chen Pingsheng, your sister is already so rich. If you ask her to marry such a man with an annual salary of only 100,000 yuan, aren't you afraid of harming her?"
“What are you afraid of?”
Chen Pingsheng raised his hand and pushed Yang Mi away who was sitting on his desk. "She chose the person herself, and I didn't choose it for her. Besides, I'm just her brother, not her father. I have too much control." She doesn’t like it either.”
“Okay.”
Yang Mi is wearing a hip-covering skirt, one side reaches her knees and the other side is above her knees, which is very fashionable.
"You are quite open-minded."
"What can I do if I can't think about it? My mother agrees, so who am I to disagree?"
Chen Pingsheng asked her curiously, "That's not right. When did you, Queen Yang, still care about these things?"
"Isn't it okay for me to talk to you? I'll leave in the afternoon. See you in the Magic City. . ”
Yang Mi carried her small bag and left wearing her sunglasses without liking anyone.
After Chen Pingsheng returned home, Hu Lin came to his house carrying many gifts.
There are apples and there are bananas.
I also heard from Chen Qi that her sister-in-law liked to eat durian, so he bought a big durian.
He obviously lost confidence after coming here.
This is completely inconsistent with what Chen Qi said that her brother only had a little money.
I live in such a beautiful big courtyard, where I can even grow vegetables at home.
The key location is still in Nanluoguxiang.
"Brother, you're back."
"You're back."
"Hu Lin brought something to see you."
"I know, your sister-in-law is waiting Come back soon and let her cook at home."
Chen Pingsheng didn't say much, and Hu Lin felt that he looked down on him.
Actually, no matter what Chen Pingsheng does, he will always feel this way.
The gap caused by the rich and the poor cannot be solved by a few words of greetings.
You can only rely on time to kill it slowly.
Besides, what did you ask him to talk to you about?
Chen Pingsheng couldn’t even think of it himself.
But he knew that coming to this big courtyard would only make the younger sister's boyfriend feel even more disappointed.
This is a normal emotion.
Chen Pingsheng called his wife. The younger sister had to bring her boyfriend home without someone to receive her.
That would be very rude.
As for his mother Peng Ying, she and Liu Fen have already gone out to play with their children.
On the way back.
Song Yanxi is still very elegant. In any outfit, she is a woman worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. How can she not be elegant?
Women still have to rely on clothing. She was very polite and bought some vegetables.
I also went to the kitchen myself to make four dishes and one soup.
After Peng Ying came back, Hu Lin became a little normal.
Not so nervous because he had met Peng Ying before.
The elders like him, this is the best result.
As for other things, I can’t force them.
Even Song Yanxi knows that the gap caused by this kind of family cannot be solved by just one meal.
It is destined to be reflected in all aspects of life in the future.
I hope Chen Qi can always have good results
Three days passed.
Hu Lin’s mother brought his eldest brother and sister-in-law to Beijing.
Chen Pingsheng drove a Rolls-Royce to pick her up at the airport, and the old man was shocked.
Chen Pingsheng introduced the capital city to her very politely.
Then they went all the way to a big hotel they had booked in advance to discuss their marriage.
The old man didn’t say much along the way.
After arriving at the hotel room, Peng Ying told her that she was also from the countryside, so the old man looked better.
Discuss marriage.
The wedding of the two will be held in the capital.
The groom’s family will also do it once. As Chen Qi's brother, Chen Pingsheng will prepare a wedding room for the two of them.
One Mercedes-Benz S600 and two sets of small facades.
The house is located near where Hu Lin works, with more than 200 square meters of fine decoration.
The man does not need to take a dime.
in addition.
They will also build a small villa in their hometown for their parents in the countryside. This is the dowry provided by the woman.
It doesn’t take much, Chen Qi is a billionaire herself.
Hu Lin’s mother asked, is it necessary to get married?
If this was the case, she would have no objection as long as her son could live a good life.
Peng Ying shook her head, there was no need for this at all, she had her own son.
The reason why I gave it to those people is simply because their family conditions are better.
It really has no other meaning.
It is said that love is a matter of two people, and marriage is a matter of two families.
Chen Qi also wanted to follow Hu Lin to his hometown, but Chen Pingsheng didn't care anymore.
If she can find someone she likes and has a good character, he will be satisfied as her elder brother.
As for the other things, let’s slowly adjust them in the future.
Anyway, the two families are very different now.
Didn’t you see that Hu Lin’s mother was always smiling and saying nothing?
Even if he asked, he just asked if he wanted to marry into his wife.
How could this be possible if these were two similar families?
No matter what, Hu Lin reached the peak of his marriage.
His eldest brother is relatively honest and has been working at home, and his sister-in-law is also pretty good.
It is a very conscientious family.
Chen Qi may still be able to adapt to this kind of family, but Chen Anan will definitely not be able to adapt to it when she grows up.
This can be seen from her monthly pocket money of hundreds of thousands.
Habits developed since childhood cannot be changed just because of one person.
......
The younger sister followed Hu Lin to his hometown.
Chen Pingsheng has returned to his old days, going to work, getting off work, and going home to spend time with his wife and look at the big fart kids showing off their treasures.
The little days soon came to late August.
After Lin Jia of Tenghui Capital investigated the domestic coffee market, he produced a detailed data report for him.
According to the survey, the customer group who consumes coffee is mainly white-collar working women, and they are of all ages.
Twenty-five to thirty-five is the most common.
In addition, in addition to the consumer groups of coffee being obviously different from milk tea, coffee is also regarded as a petty bourgeois lifestyle.
Starbucks has mastered this area, and only then can it become popular all over the world.
In a coffee shop.
Chen Pingsheng rarely wore black sunglasses. He had been sitting here for a long time.
This coffee shop is not big, but it is small and unique.
Business is usually good. He drank it for more than ten days in a row, but he didn't get any bourgeois sentiment from the coffee.
This is true for both sweetened and unsweetened ones.
How can I go to a coffee shop if I haven’t even touched the most basic threshold of coffee?
Just relying on more money?
Don't make trouble, there are many people in China who are richer than him.
Where is he?
Rely on celebrity resources?
Celebrities may be able to quickly attract young people, but the audience for coffee is obviously urban white-collar workers.
These people all have their own independent thinking, and celebrity resources will have a much smaller impact than milk tea.
He has always firmly believed that chasing stars is really just what a fool does.
No matter how good the performance is on TV, I still don’t know how chaotic it is in private.
This is also the reason why he has never made up his mind to work in a coffee shop.
"Uncle, is the coffee prepared by my aunt particularly delicious?"
"Does it taste good?"
Chen Pingsheng asked a soulful question, which made the store The little waiter was immediately stunned.
“Of course it tastes good. If it doesn’t taste good, why do you come here to drink it every day?”
The little girl is very confident, and her business here is quite good.
If you arrive at noon or just after get off work, you will have to queue up.
This uncle has an unattractive appearance. Looking at the way he drinks coffee, he is not the same as those aunt's suitors, right?
Glancing at him suspiciously, the little girl asked: "Uncle, don't you even have a job? Why do I see you so free?"
Chen Pingsheng comes here every day, always I got a little familiar with her.
"How can you suspect that I don't have a job? Isn't there a possibility that I am the big boss, so I don't have to work?"
With a puff, the little girl laughed, "Uncle, don't be ridiculous, big boss." Why would you come to our little coffee shop every day to drink coffee?”
“You must have fallen in love with my aunt. Uncle, I have to remind you that although my aunt is very beautiful, she doesn’t know how to do it. I like you."
"Why don't you like me? Am I bad?"
"No, it's mainly because my sister-in-law said she would stay at my uncle's funeral for five years. She will definitely not have a boyfriend in the past five years.”
The widow?
Chen Pingsheng suddenly thought of such a word, and looked at the woman in front of him who was wearing a tight black dress with a low ponytail.
A strand of bangs falls on both sides, and the melon-shaped face looks half-hearted.
It's really tempting.
Chen Pingsheng looked at her and said, "Your aunt has been very kind to your uncle for five years."
"Of course, they have been together since college."
The little girl didn't want to talk to him more on this topic. Of course, Chen Pingsheng had no interest in chasing people to ask such things.
There are too many beauties visible to him.
“Girl, I see your coffee is not cheap. It only costs 20 to 30 cups. It doesn’t taste as good as the Bobo milk tea next door. Why do so many people like it?”
“Hmph.” What he said made the little girl angry. This was the first time she heard someone say in their shop that the coffee was not as good as the eight-yuan milk tea next door.
"Uncle, you didn't say that in anger after I exposed your true colors. How can you compare coffee with milk tea?"
"Can't we compare?"
Chen All my life, I feel that they are almost the same, one is a bit bitter, and the other is sweeter and milkier.
Seriously speaking, he also likes to drink milk tea.
But this Tong Zelan said that he can build a coffee shop.
The valuation is at least tens of billions, or even as high as tens of billions.
If he builds a company worth tens of billions, he can use Goldfinger to increase it randomly.
Dare you think about it?
“Of course there is no comparison. Milk tea is sold to young consumer groups, but coffee is sold to quality customers.”
In the eyes of the little girl, coffee and milk tea are the biggest The difference is obviously a matter of grade.
Chen Pingsheng thought about it and said, "You pack three more cups for me and I'll take them to my colleagues to drink."
"Okay." The little girl was free at three or four in the afternoon and had to start again at five o'clock. Busy.
After the nearby businesses get off work, many people will drop by to order a cup of coffee from them.
As soon as she entered, she told her aunt about this strange uncle.
They say they don’t taste good, but they still come to drink it every day.
It's really strange.
My aunt just glanced at it at first and didn’t pay much attention.
Later, when the store was not busy anyway, he thought of coming over to ask what was the taste that did not suit his liking.
Seriously, Chen Pingsheng doesn’t think any coffee tastes good.
He thinks this will be the biggest difficulty for him in making coffee.
"Sir, can I ask, what do you think about our coffee that doesn't suit your taste?"
"Oh~ you may have misunderstood, I just can't taste the coffee well."
Chen Pingsheng said truthfully, "A friend suggested that I run a coffee shop, but I can't taste its good taste. Do you think it will be difficult for me to run a coffee shop well like this?"
Aunt Qin Xue was slightly startled, as if she didn't expect to get such an answer.
If he were an ordinary person, he would definitely ask him out at this time.
Because isn't it obvious that he is here to inquire about their information?
Qin Xue sat across from him and said with a faint smile, "You are quite sincere."
"That's because I don't have to deceive the proprietress of a small coffee shop."
Okay... Qin Xue felt a sense of confidence in these words, but also contempt for herself.
In his eyes, he is not his competitor.
Qin Xuedao, "I only drank my first cup of coffee when I was in college. At that time, I went to Starbucks with my classmates. They all said it tasted good, but I didn't think it tasted good at all. But in order to prevent others from noticing, I It’s better to tell them that this cup of coffee tastes good.”
“You can tell your preferences truthfully, which proves that you don’t need to deliberately use these things to gain recognition.”
“Actually. …I only realized how good coffee tasted after I graduated from college and went to work. At that time, many colleagues liked it. After I followed them and bought it a few times, I gradually started to like its taste. It was bitter at first and then Sweetness needs to be savored slowly, and it is a habit. Once you get used to drinking it, it will be difficult to quit.”
Qin Xue believes that the biggest difference between coffee and milk tea is addiction.
Just like people in Hunan like to eat betel nut, you give this thing to outsiders to chew.
They will feel something strange.
Not only does chewing hurt your mouth, but it also makes you feel uncomfortable.
But Hunan people especially like it because it is addictive.
It’s very difficult to quit even if you want to.
This is almost the same as coffee. People who are used to it drink a cup every day.
People who are not used to it will just find it uneconomical.
It just so happens that white-collar workers in companies like to drink it.
Chen Pingsheng understood, and seemed to understand the reason why he didn't like drinking.
Without addiction, there is no love.
It’s the same thing as betel nut.
The biggest advantage of coffee over milk tea is its high customer stickiness.
The repurchase rate is also very strong.
