Siheyuan's Journey Through the Ages

Chapter 124: The Third Aunt, an Expert in Her Own Field

Liang Haowen was also stimulated by the performance in front of him. "Okay, I will also invest an additional 1 yuan to add 10 more stores within three months, and strive to cover the whole of Hong Kong with Ma Liang Real Estate. But you can't be lazy from now on, you have to participate in the expansion of stores."

"No problem. It's not that complicated. We will first count the best agents in the existing stores except for the store managers and directly appoint them as the new store managers. They will get 10% of the profits. I am not afraid that they will not work hard. When the time comes, finding a store and opening a store can be left to them. I will just supervise from the side.

If you don’t push people, you don’t know how great their potential is.” Ma Qing was not proficient in business management in his previous life, but he still had some understanding of human nature.

Ma Qing hopes that his company's expansion momentum will attract the interest of local Hong Kong tycoons, who will then come to acquire him and he can take advantage of the situation. Hehe, it's nice to think about it.

Of course, if there is no local tyrant using his power to force a takeover, Ma Qing will also have to find someone to take over, but that would be very troublesome and would leave hidden dangers, after all, it is easy to offend people by passing the buck.

In the following days, Ma Qing was exhausted as he supervised the newly appointed store managers in finding stores, recruiting employees, simple store decoration, government procedures, etc. Fortunately, with the support of the law firm and the hard-working attitude of these new store managers, things were finally on the right track.

Finally there was a weekend and my third aunt came to visit again.

"Good news, good news, congratulations, Boss Ma, the thing you asked me to do is done." The third aunt came in and said happily, as if she was about to get rich.

Ma Qing was a little confused for a moment, "Third Aunt, what good news is this? What can I ask of you?"

"Boss Ma, you can't go back on your word. You agreed last time that if I can find a woman you like, you'll give me 1000 yuan as a reward." When the third aunt saw Ma Qing like this, her face darkened visibly.

"What? You can find a woman with such conditions? Are you sure it's the conditions I mentioned?" Ma Qing asked in disbelief.

Third Aunt was unhappy now, "Why do you look down on me? How did I find it? Go out and ask around. There is nothing that Third Aunt can't do."

Ma Qing remained silent, underestimating this era.

"Third aunt, are you sure you can meet my conditions? Let me tell you, I make hundreds of dollars a minute. I don't have time to play the game of 'Now that you're here, let's play' with you." Ma Qing looked at the sunshine outside. In Hong Kong in June, the sun was already beginning to show its power.

"I knew that your boss Ma was trying to put me off. You are still young, and you think your conditions are outrageous, but in fact, they are nothing. With your conditions, boss Ma, I can accomplish it no matter how outrageous they are. As long as you have money, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished." The third aunt said proudly.

Ma Qing also became interested. With such conditions, it would be fine even if he had to spend some money. Wouldn't it be difficult for him to pursue women and fall in love? "Then tell me the details." "Well, this matter is old-fashioned. The girl's surname is Yan, and her name is Yan Luoqing. Listen, what a nice name. His Yan family was originally a landlord in Shatin District. However, Yan Luoqing was born out of wedlock. The master of the Yan family was in poor health, and Yan Luoqing's marriage was delayed in recent years.

As a result, the master of the Yan family passed away this year. Of course, the son of the master of the Yan family would not acknowledge the child of the concubine, and cut off the share of money for Yan Luoqing and her mother. As a result, Yan Luoqing's mother also fell ill. Now the two of them are at the end of their rope. "

Third Aunt sighed, not knowing whether it was sincere or false. "This child went back to beg her half brother to help treat her mother's illness, but the Yan family brother arranged a marriage for her, asking her to marry a middle-aged man as a concubine, otherwise he would not give money to her mother for treatment. The child must have refused in her heart, and the two sides were deadlocked."

The third aunt said proudly, "This is when I will make my debut. I have seen this child. She is really good-looking, has a good figure, and has studied for a few years. If I were a man, I would like her temperament and figure."

Ma Qing was skeptical and retorted: "It's really that good. I can just find a rich man to marry and it will be my turn."

The third aunt opened her eyes wide, "Boss Ma, don't you know how good your conditions are? You own a building at such a young age, you look presentable, and most importantly, you can make your own decisions."

"You don't know, in Yan Luoqing's situation, men of the same age who don't care about her status usually have no money; men of her age who are rich are mostly from wealthy families, and their families definitely care about her background; men who are rich and don't care about her status are usually old enough to be her father; in short, Yan Luoqing's current situation is particularly neither good nor bad. If she wants to get money for her mother's medical treatment in a short time, she can either become a concubine to an old man, or become a lover to a rich young man, or she can only go out..."

"I told her mother about your situation, and she agreed. Can you come with me to Sha Tin to visit her?" The third aunt said so much in one breath, and Ma Qing quickly handed her a glass of water.

"It's such a hot day, I won't go. How about this, Third Aunt, here is 100 yuan, you find a way, I don't care whether you find a taxi or a rickshaw, just bring the mother and child over to see them, the extra money is yours." Ma Qing is a really inhuman person sometimes.

The third aunt held 100 yuan in her hand. She looked at the money, then at Ma Qing. She seemed to have something to say, but she couldn't say it for the sake of the 100 yuan.

Ma Qing knew that he should go to the house himself, but it didn't matter. Ma Qing didn't want to find a woman to support him at home because Xiaoqi always wanted to get married and have children. Ma Qing had doubts in his heart and always felt that this intelligent life had other purposes.

"Third aunt, I know what you mean. Do you think I'm being rude? Let me be frank. If Yan Luoqing accepts to be my concubine, then don't care about this. If you care about this, then don't enter my house. I don't want to find a woman with a strong personality. This can be considered a test. If she can bow her head to me, then that's fine. If she can't, then forget it." Ma Qing said rudely.

The third aunt had nothing to say. She was thinking about how to resolve the matter. She had to get the 1000 yuan reward no matter what. This was the peak moment of her career.

No one knew how Sangu operated it, but in the afternoon, three rickshaws stopped in front of Ma Qing's Baixin Supermarket store one after another, and three women got off. One of them immediately attracted everyone's attention.
