Chapter 217: Hongdou chose the long way instead of the near one and was traumatized by her sister.
"Hongdou, Hongdou..." Before anyone entered the door, Chen An's loud voice came in impatiently.
When Xu Hongdou heard the voice, she couldn't help but rolled her eyes, muttering to herself: This guy must be a dog, he only cares about food and not beatings, he just provoked me and now he acts like nothing happened.
Chen An walked in with a smile on his face, carrying vegetables and meat in his hands, and said excitedly, "I have made an important decision. I will cook lunch myself, and Sister Xiaochun will reimburse the money for the meat and vegetables."
Xie Xiaochun looked at Chen An's hands full of food, and curiously approached and asked, "You're lucky today. Does it look like someone is slaughtering a pig?"
"Yes, we will have Chen's braised pork for lunch, which will satisfy your appetite and broaden your horizons." Chen An raised his head proudly, his eyes full of confidence.
Xu Hongdou snorted proudly, crossed her arms over her chest, and said unhappily, "You only know how to eat. Come here, I have something to talk to you about..."
"Let me put the things in the back..." Chen An said as he hurried to the back as fast as the wind.
After a while, Chen An returned to the table next to the bookshelf. Xu Hongdou pushed a piece of paper over to him, and said with a serious expression, "I just made a rough estimate. This is about the amount of money I'll need."
A hint of surprise flashed across Chen An's face. He quickly took the paper and read it carefully. The handwriting was neat and beautiful. He thought to himself: Although it is a little bit worse than mine.
After taking a few glances, Chen An frowned, turned around and asked seriously, "Are you planning to open a company in Beijing?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Xu Hongdou opened her eyes wide, her face full of confusion, her brows slightly furrowed, and her eyes were full of doubt.
"What else?" Chen An held his forehead helplessly and said anxiously, "Sister Doudou, shouldn't we make good use of the existing resources?"
"Are you talking about my sister?" Xu Hongdou became even more confused, staring at Chen An.
Chen An explained speechlessly, "Otherwise, there are still people in the Magic City who can help us a little. At least when we have something to do, we can find some connections, right? If you go to the capital, can you use all the connections you have made over the years?"
“But, but I’m used to living in Beijing. I’ve been thinking about making a few videos about Beijing. After all, I’m more familiar with the place.” Xu Hongdou bit her lip, her eyes showing a hint of persistence, and her tone became a little anxious.
"I personally think that Shanghai is more suitable for the development of our company. After all, Shanghai is better than Beijing in terms of economy, and it can reduce some unnecessary troubles. There is a saying that goes, you don't know how low your official position is until you go to Beijing, and you don't know how little money you have until you go to Shanghai..." Chen An looked determined and analyzed seriously.
"But we have no money now. If you add it up in total, it will cost at least two million. I've been thinking about asking my sister to borrow some money. If I ask her for other help, she'll blame me again..." Xu Hongdou snorted depressedly, her brows furrowed, and her face was full of worry.
Chen An patted his chest and said confidently, with a determined look in his eyes, "You don't have to worry about the money, and my original budget was higher than this."
Xu Hongdou snorted in frustration, curled her lips, and said with a hint of complaint: "I don't know how much money you have."
"I have almost half a million in my card now, but I have a way to get funds of no less than 500 million, so you don't have to worry about that." Chen An smiled mysteriously, with a hint of pride on his face.
"What's going on?" Xu Hongdou asked anxiously, staring at Chen An, eyes full of curiosity and worry.
"Keep it a secret. Just know that you're not short of money." Chen An blinked and deliberately kept the secret.
"You, you're not going to borrow money from a loan shark, are you?" Xu Hongdou looked at Chen An worriedly, her voice unconsciously rising a few degrees, her eyes full of nervousness.
"Do you think I'm a fool?" Chen An was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and shook his head helplessly.
"I'm just worried about you..." Xu Hongdou lowered her head, her voice became softer, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on her face.
"Don't be idle these two days. Look for suitable clothes online and purchase a batch of them. Mainly ancient-style dresses, supplemented by simple and casual styles, with a few fashion elements. The proportions should be 631::." Chen An explained seriously with a very focused expression.
"Why are you purchasing so many ancient-style clothes?" Xu Hongdou asked puzzledly, frowning slightly.
"Cover up the flesh..." Chen An said with a wicked smile, a sly smile on his face.
"Speak nicely..." Xu Hongdou angrily reached out to hit Chen An, her face instantly becoming a little annoyed.
"It hurts, it hurts..." Chen An begged for mercy quickly, his expression painful, his body unconsciously dodging backwards.
"Hmph." Xu Hongdou turned her head away coquettishly and no longer looked at Chen An.
"Hongdou, I think that when it comes to the car we are going to purchase, we must buy a commercial vehicle. This way it will be more practical, and a second-hand one will be fine. Let's look into this together when we go to the Magic City." Chen An looked at Xu Hongdou and said seriously.
"Just look at it yourself. I won't go over there for now..." Xu Hongdou waved her hand, with a hint of reluctance on her face.
"What's wrong? Are you afraid of Sister Heimi?" Chen An teased with a smile, his eyes full of mockery.
"You dare to give her a nickname. If she hears it, you'll be finished." Xu Hongdou glared at Chen An and made a throat-cutting gesture.
"You know it and I know it. If you don't tell on her, how would she know?" Chen An blinked mischievously, looking nonchalant.
"It's better for an outsider to chant, and the effect will be better if I don't go..." Xu Hongdou shrugged helplessly, with helplessness written all over her face. In her heart, she had her own plan. Xiao An went to Shanghai to ask Xu Hongmi for help, and she could borrow some help from her mother. Then hehe...
Chen An scratched his head and asked, a trace of embarrassment on his face, "By the way, Sister Doudou, what does your sister like? I can't go there to find someone to help me. I can't go empty-handed, right?"
"Well, what do you like? Do handsome guys count?" Xu Hongdou joked with a smile, a hint of cunning in her eyes.
"What's the matter? Are you still using me as a beauty trap?" Chen An pretended to be horrified, opened his mouth exaggeratedly, and couldn't help scratching Xu Hongdou's nose...
"Hate it, it hurts..." Xu Hongdou reached out and hit Chen An again, with a hint of anger on her face.
Xu Hongdou thought for a moment and said, "She doesn't lack anything. After all, she can buy anything. Why don't you, Xiao An, get her some flower cakes. She seems to like them very much."
"That's fine..." Chen An nodded and responded thoughtfully.
"How do you plan to make the money? There won't be any risks, right?" Xu Hongdou was still a little worried. She frowned and asked with worry in her eyes, her tone full of concern.
"It's absolutely legal and compliant, don't worry..." Chen An patted Xu Hongdou's shoulder comfortingly and gave her a firm look.
Xu Hongdou wasn't too worried after hearing this, after all, this guy was very smart.
Chen An looked at Xu Hongdou and couldn't help but smile. This girl must have been traumatized by Xu Hongmi...
