    As soon as Liang Chen came out, Zhuo Shao saw him.

    The little fat man doesn't look too fat now, but he looks more and more like the Liang Xin in his memory.

    "Zhuo Shao!" Seeing Zhuo Shao, Liang Chen ran over immediately, and his schoolbag slapped him on the back.

    Zhuo Shao stretched out his hand to pick up his schoolbag, and said, "Don't run so fast next time."

    "Well..." Liang Chen responded and hugged his schoolbag with his backhand: "I'll carry it myself!"

    Zhuo Shao picked it up and didn't bring his schoolbag, so he could only give up: "Let's go then."

    Liang Chen smiled at Zhuo Shao, and began to think about how to send his own card to Zhuo Shao, as for the girl's card to Zhuo Shao...

    He didn't want to give that card to Zhuo Shao.

    Liang Chen wanted to send his own greeting card to Zhuo Shao, but after returning home, he never had the chance to send a greeting card.

    Someone is moving the furniture that Zhuo Shao bought upstairs, Zhuo Shao must watch it, and at the same time, he has to prepare dinner.

    Zhuo Shao was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, Liang Chen didn't have time to send greeting cards at all, but he ran around with Zhuo Shao, helped wash a lot of dishes, and was in a good mood.

    Zhuo Shao was too busy, so his cooking was quite simple, and the meal was not ready until Liang Fang came back.

    "I'll go upstairs to have a look, you can eat first." Zhuo Shao said, going upstairs to check what was delivered, and by the way, let someone install it.

    When these furniture were bought, many of them were disassembled in the same way, and the workers planned to install some of them today.

    Zhuo Shao went downstairs to eat after instructing him. Half an hour had passed by now, but Liang Fang and others had not eaten yet and were waiting for him.

    "Why don't you eat first, what if you are hungry?" Zhuo Shao frowned and looked at Liang Chen.

    "I ate an apple." Liang Chen said quickly, "You asked me to eat more fruit."

    Hearing what Liang Chen said, Zhuo Shao didn't say anything, he just said, "Hurry up and eat."

    After half an hour of winter, it was cold, but the rice was still hot. Liang Chen put the fried pork slices on the steaming rack of the rice cooker, which was also hot.

    "Zhuo Shao, why don't you hire someone to cook at home, it won't cost much." Liang Fang couldn't help but said, now in places like Fuyang County, labor is very cheap, find someone to cook two meals at noon and evening, three One hundred dollars a month is enough.

    But Zhuo Shao thought about it, but refused: "Let's talk about it later."

    This time, his hard work is nothing at all, as for the future...

    Like Liang Fang, Zhuo Shao also thought about Liang Chen's future.

    In his words, it's good to develop in Fuyang County first, save some money and then go to the provincial capital, but Liang Chen...

    If Liang Chen has been studying here, he will definitely not be able to compete with those who study in good schools in the provincial capital in the future.

    And... he didn't forget that in Beimen Junior High School, there were a group of people who had bullied Liang Chen!

    He picks up Liang Chen every day these days, it's not like he's guarding those people, he's afraid that if he doesn't watch, Liang Chen will be bullied and blackmailed.

    In the last life, before he took money from Liang Chen every day, Liang Chen had been blackmailed by others.

    Zhuo Shao felt that he should be allowed to change the environment and start over.

    And if Liang Chen went to study in the provincial capital, such as a foreign language school, he would have to live in the school, and he would never have the opportunity to cook for him every day...

    During this time, he was a little busy, and he liked it.

    After eating, Zhuo Shao went upstairs again. Liang Chen collected the bowl and took it to the kitchen to wash it, but Zhuo Shao didn't come down after washing.

    He went upstairs to have a look and found that Zhuo Shao was still busy with furniture.

    "I'm a little busy today, maybe I don't have time to teach you how to draw. You go do your homework first." Zhuo Shao said to Liang Chen, and after he finished speaking, he instructed: "After you finish your homework, listen to the English tape and learn English. "

    Liang Chen's Chinese and mathematics are all good. If he goes to other schools, he may miss a little homework, but it will not be too serious, but English...

    In big cities, elementary school students started to learn English in the second and third grades, and they only had a little contact with them in the fifth and sixth grades. The junior high school began to formally learn English from abc, and they still learned dumb English.

    Under such circumstances, if Liang Chen went to those good schools, the courses would definitely not be able to keep up.

    Not to mention, Liang Chen still has the habit of stuttering when he is nervous.

    Liang Chen was a little disappointed, but seeing that Zhuo Shao was so busy, he didn't say anything, and obediently went downstairs to do his homework.

    There are a lot of homework assigned by the teacher. If you do it carefully, you can’t finish it in three hours. However, some of them are repetitive.

    Liang Chen did all the homework that the teacher wanted to accept for correction, and the rest of the assignments that the teacher would not correct, so he just picked and did a little.

    Generally, children are reluctant to do homework. He has been neglected since he was a child, but he does his homework very seriously, and he is afraid that he will be criticized by the teacher for not doing well...

    Liang looked at it for a while, and his mood became more and more complicated.

    It wasn't until half past nine that Liang Chen's homework was almost done, but Zhuo Shao hadn't come back.

    Liang Chen was a little restless.

    Fortunately, Liang Fang went to take a shower at this time... Liang Chen got up, put the extra thick greeting card he bought in the book, and went upstairs to find Zhuo Shao.

    The person who installed the furniture has left, and Zhuo Shao is cleaning up.

    When the furniture was delivered, it was wrapped in cardboard foam. Now, Zhuo Shao has to move these things down.

    "Why are you here?" Zhuo Shao was very happy to see Liang Chen.

    Liang Chen also felt Zhuo Shao's mood, his eyes were bent, and then he hesitated again, after hesitating for a while, he took out the greeting card from his book and gave it to Zhuo Shao: "For you, happy New Year."

    Zhuo Shao was stunned for a while, and then he remembered that it would be New Year's Day in a few days.

    At this time, people didn't pay much attention to the Chinese New Year, and he almost forgot about it.

    No, he actually didn't forget... This year's New Year's Day falls on Monday, and Saturday and Sunday are two consecutive days. These three days are full of arrangements, and he intends to get all the appliances and curtains done.

    "Thank you." Zhuo Shao wanted to pick up the card, but suddenly found his hands were very dirty... "You help me put it in my clothes, I'll go back and look at it later."

    When Zhuo Shao said this, he didn't think much, but when he saw Liang Chen put the greeting card into his clothes with a red face... He found that he seemed to be teasing Liang Chen again.

    This is really good, his is still alive, even alive...

    After Zhuo Shao finished his work, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. After he went back, he washed his hands, and then opened the very thick greeting card first.

    The card is beautiful, a little over the top, with Santa Claus and a Christmas tree printed on it, and when opened, it turns into a pendant with music coming out.

    This kind of thing is simply something that little girls like.

    This greeting card didn't meet Zhuo Shao's aesthetic, but he still liked it very much. After all, it was a greeting card from Liang Chen.

    However, when he saw the words on the greeting card, Zhuo Shao couldn't help being stunned.

    He suddenly thought that Liang Xin had also sent a greeting card to the company's people, and there was such a line on it.

    He kept the greeting card at that time, but thought that sentence was just a business sentence, and he was a little disappointed.

    Zhuo Shao carried the string of luxurious greeting cards into his bedroom and hung the cards on the lamp.

    This night, he fell asleep in the back and forth of the music. When he woke up the next day, although the greeting card had stopped singing because of the lack of electricity, he seemed to be able to hear the music again. It rang in his ears everywhere.

    The next day was Friday, and there was a New Year's party in Beimen Junior High School, so the students in the class were very excited.

    Liang Chen was also very happy. When Zhuo Shao sent him to school today, he told him that he liked the card very much.

    "Liang Chen, have you given Zhuo Shao my greeting card?" The girl who asked Liang Chen to give Zhuo Shao a greeting card found Liang Chen.

    "Give...give..." Liang Chen replied stiffly.

    He rarely lies, but today he did.

    He didn't throw or open the card, and put it into the old textbook he left in elementary school along with the card from his front seat.

    "What did Zhuo Shao say?" The girl looked at Liang Chen expectantly.

    Liang Chen became even stiffer: "No."

    "Oh..." The girl stopped talking and sat back in her seat.

    Liang Chen suddenly felt that he was a little bad.

    However, he was not a good person in the first place. He knew that Zhuo Shao didn't like him, and he still wanted to be with Zhuo Shao.

    On Saturday and Sunday, Zhuo Shao took Liang Chen and Zhuo Ting to the provincial capital again.

    He took them to buy things, and also told them some ways to live in the world. Of course, it was mainly for Liang Chen and Zhuo Ting to broaden their horizons.

    The electrical appliances in Zhou Zhengqiang's house, Zhuo Shao's are all very well equipped, and he also picked out some unique table lamps and put them away.

    He intends to decorate Zhou Zhengqiang's house more delicately.

    It was the first time that Liang Chen discovered that there were so many beautiful furniture in this world, and a house could be so beautifully decorated.

    He suddenly fell in love with what Zhuo Shao did.

    He must study hard in the future, so that when Zhuo Shao opens a company, he can help Zhuo Shao.

    Zhuo Shao didn't know Liang Chen's thoughts. At this moment, he was trying his best to make Zhou Zhengqiang's house perfect.

    He plans to open a decoration company, and Zhou Zhengqiang's home is his first work. When the time comes, he will photograph it, print a brochure, and upload it on the Internet.

    The Internet and decoration seem to have little connection, but in the Internet age, there is nothing that cannot be sold online!

    Twenty years later, some decoration companies have cooperated with TV stations to organize programs, some decoration companies have developed apps, and many decoration companies have built their own websites, all for the purpose of soliciting business.

    At that time, when many young people bought a house and planned to decorate it, the first thing they did was not to run a few decoration companies, but to search online... It is conceivable how important the Internet is.

    At this moment, Zhuo Shao plans to promote his company on the Internet as early as possible. In the future, he may be able to let customers order a single package online, and then arrange for people to do things.

    By the way, when he has money, he will find a few people, and then make a decoration website for him, share some decoration dry goods in it, and let others share some decoration records in it...

    In this matter, he can also ask Liang Fang to do it too and build a website for selling houses...

    Of course, if Liang Fang wants to build a website, it is best not to use Xinhe's name to build it.

    Zhuo Shao thought about it a lot, and took time to write down one by one.

    On New Year's Day, Zhou Zhengqiang would bring his nouveau riche father and some relatives over to see the house.

    Now the house still has some shortcomings, but it is almost ready. On this morning, Zhuo Shao did the final cleaning, and then put the bedding he bought and the pillow made by himself. , All of them were placed in the house, and in some places, he even covered carpets.

    A house without these, the visual effect will not always be very good... Although things like carpets are not very practical.

    In the afternoon, Zhou Zhengqiang came with seven or eight people.

    Zhou Zhengqiang's factory is in the countryside, and his family lives in the country. Zhou Zhengqiang himself rarely came over these days when Zhuo Shao was renovating, and no one of his parents and relatives ever came.

    "It's only three months, right? The house is ready? It's more than three months of woodworking, right?" Zhou Zhengqiang's father frowned. His name is Zhou Hongjun. He paid for the decoration, but he didn't care about it before. over the decoration.

    He had built his own house, this thing was so annoying, he never wanted to touch his hands a second time in his life, and then... he wanted to experience his son, and as a result...

    He never cared much about the renovation process, thinking that it would take next year to see the effect. Unexpectedly, after only three months, his son asked him to see the new house. , I leave it all to others to do, I basically don't care!

    He still spent so much money on the decoration of his own house, and his son didn't even care about it... Zhou Hongjun felt very unreliable.

    "I came to see it a few days ago. It's almost the same. I bought the furniture." Zhou Zhengqiang said.

    When he came here a few days ago, although the house was a bit messy, it was almost finished, and there was no problem at all.

    "How did you make it so fast? Is the quality good?" Zhou Hongjun's brows furrowed even tighter: "After spending so much money, it won't work at all."

    "Dad, it's a big company, it must be good to do it, you can see it when you see it." Zhou Zhengqiang said, he has long believed in Zhuo Shao now.

    "Those companies are all trying to make money and cheat money."

    "If you find a company to do it, how can you find someone to do it well? I don't know what kind of wood they use."

    "Zhengqiang, you do everything for others, don't be deceived!"

    The people around Zhou Hongjun and Zhou Zhengqiang also said.

    After these people heard that Zhou Zhengqiang spent so much money to find someone to decorate, they all felt that Zhou Zhengqiang was deceived.

    "You'll know when you see it, my house is different from others." Zhou Zhengqiang said.

    He was definitely not deceived. Although his house has not been completely installed, he has seen it. It is definitely different from ordinary houses!

    Zhou Zhengqiang opened the door, and then was stunned.

    When he came here a few days ago, the furniture had not been fully laid out, but now, it's all set up here!

    Zhou Zhengqiang was a little stunned, as were the people who followed.

    This house is completely different from what they thought.

    The layout of Zhou's house is the same as that of Liang Chen's house downstairs. The entrance is the guest dining room. At this moment, there is no shortage of sofas and coffee tables in the living room... The one hanging on the wall... is the TV?

    The sofa is beautiful, the ceiling is beautiful, and the black and white round table for eight people and the exquisite chandelier in the dining room are all they have never seen before.

    This house doesn't look like it was renovated with a lot of money. It's not luxurious at all, but it looks very comfortable.

    Zhou Hongjun was relieved.

    "Mr. Zhou, have you come to see the house?" Zhuo Shao had been waiting for a long time. At this time, he went up to meet him: "There is still some finishing work left for the decoration, but it is generally done. I will show you around."

    Zhuo Shao first brought people to the living room: "The living room is a leather sofa, and the TV is a wall-mounted TV that has just been launched." As he said, he turned on the TV.

    At this time, most of the TV sets were still very thick and heavy. Wall-mounted TV sets were just released four years ago and have not yet become popular in China.

    This TV looks very high-end at first glance, but...

    "This TV doesn't need to be plugged in?" Zhou Hongjun was a little confused. The place where they watched TV at home was always a mess of wires, connected to vcd speakers or something, but they couldn't be seen here.

    "Here in the living room, there are pipes hidden in the wall, and the plugs all go through the wall, so that there will not be a lot of messy wires." Zhuo Shao said: "I pretend to be a mansion in the provincial capital, and this is what I do. Of course, If you're using an old-fashioned TV, you don't have to worry about that."

    Zhou Hongjun, who had only seen old-fashioned TV sets before, couldn't help but blush a little.

    He thought for a while and didn't know what to say, and finally said: "Why are only black and white wooden boards behind this TV? It should be made of marble to look good, and then paste some dragons and phoenixes. Besides, this is a new house. Why is it either black or white? We should get some bright red, this lamp is not good-looking, how good is the crystal chandelier."

    "..." Zhuo Shao was stunned for a moment, and then he said without changing his face: "This is Mr. Zhou, right? You are right. If the house is decorated in Chinese style, it should be like that, but this is not the case. The house is modern, very stylish and suitable for young people!”

    "You don't know, Mr. Zhou, the times are different, just tell me, I made money before, but I'm happy, I bought a gold chain to put on for myself, but I went to the provincial capital with my relatives, and immediately I was laughed at and said I was a nouveau riche." Zhuo Shao said, "Who wears a gold chain in the provincial capital? They all wear watches, and they look very ordinary, no different from 20 yuan on the street. In fact, it costs tens of thousands!"

    Zhou Hongjun was stunned for a moment. There was a large gold chain hanging under his clothes. He wore a lot today and was covered by his clothes, so he didn't show it...

    "This real mansion is by no means putting out those previous things. Even if it is a mansion, you should look at the inside and culture, and just say the words on the wall," Zhuo Shao pointed to the paintings on the wall, "These are all Our company hired someone to draw it, and it has a signature, which is especially suitable for the style here.”

    "This painting...why don't you paint peony?" Zhou Hongjun couldn't help but asked.

    "Dad, the peony is an antique, it doesn't match my modern decoration!" Zhou Hongjun said.

    Zhuo Shao smiled and continued to introduce the same things.

    Zhou Hongjun's house is modern and simple, but it's not simple at all. In fact, he put a lot of thought into it. He said that the TV background wall is very complicated, but unlike what they said, only black and white were used. colored wooden boards.

    The decoration of the guest restaurant is in the atmosphere, the main body is black and white, but on the upper floor, he is in the warm, the main color is very warm.

    In addition, there is a playful toy room, as well as bedrooms with their own characteristics... The bathroom and so on are even more unique.

    At the beginning, Zhou Hongjun thought that the house didn't look expensive enough, but after walking around, this idea disappeared completely.

    This toilet can even wash the buttocks. In this world, there is a dishwasher!

    He found that he was really ignorant. The real mansion did not seem to be covered with yellow and orange marbles like his home.

    It's worth the money! He knows what the rich people in the provincial capital live in like!

    "This house is beautiful, but I bought a lot of furniture, won't it be used for a long time?" One of the people who followed couldn't help but said, the bed that I bought was beautiful, but it was not reliable!

    "Although the furniture is purchased, the quality is guaranteed and it will last for 20 years, but I don't think the house will last for 20 years," said Zhuo Shao.

    "Why?" Zhou Zhengqiang asked in confusion.

    "Elevator rooms are starting to be built in provincial capitals now, and this should be the case in the future... Mr. Zhou's family is rich, so maybe he wants to buy an elevator room to live in." Zhuo Shao flattered secretly.

    It turns out that... other people's knowledge is different from my own!

    At first, Zhou Hongjun, who felt that his son was spending money indiscriminately, now also feels that... the decoration company in the provincial capital is just different!

    "I saw that there were quilts and sheets on the bed. Where did you buy them? It's so beautiful." Zhou Zhengqiang also asked about Zhuo Shao's bedding.

    He didn't expect that Zhuo Shao had prepared even these, and it was very nice.

    The quilts in their house were either big red flowers or small broken flowers. He didn't think there was a problem with them before, but now...

    The bedding that Zhuo Shao bought is really beautiful!

    "I bought those beddings from the provincial capital. If Mr. Zhou needs it, I can prepare more for you."

    "There is a need, there is a need." Zhou Zhengqiang said quickly.

    Zhuo Shao's knowledge is ahead of many people at this time, not to mention that he has been in this business in his previous life, and he is especially good at fooling people!

    In the end, Zhou Zhengqiang readily paid the balance, not to mention, he gave an extra two thousand, and asked Zhuo Shao to help buy some four-piece suits.

    After receiving the money, Zhuo Shao was in a particularly good mood, and said, "Mr. Zhou, the house is almost finished, and in two days, I will give you the key. I use all good materials, and the methanol content will definitely not exceed the standard. , but after all, it is a new house, it is better to ventilate for a while before living in it.”

    "I was going to get married next year." Zhou Zhengqiang said, and sighed again: "Oh, I want to come and live now..."

    "Little brother!" At this moment, a person brought by Zhou Zhengqiang and Zhou Hongjun suddenly stopped Zhuo Shao: "Little brother, can you help me decorate a hotel?"
