Reborn in 1990: My Family Store Leads to the Future

"You want it?"

Lu Yuan was too lazy to expose the other party's thoughts.

This person, who never cared about him from the beginning, probably still has the same attitude now.

Perhaps in this guy's eyes, Lu Yuan is still just an ordinary person.

Qi Qiang seemed to have seized a business opportunity and quickly spoke up.

"How much do you want to sell me this machine?"

Lu Yuan didn't answer, he just held up one finger.

"Ten thousand?"

Qi Qiang was somewhat surprised; the price was indeed quite expensive.

But thinking about how delicious that thing must be, he gritted his teeth and said.

"Then I'll take it."

"One hundred thousand."

"Are you trying to rob me? How could this thing possibly be worth 100,000?"

Qi Qiang's eyes widened, and he immediately said that this thing was not worth that much money at all.

At the same time, he was also thinking of further belittling this thing. If he could just say that this ice cream machine wasn't profitable, he could resell it to the United States and maybe he could actually earn some tuition fees.

Lu Yuan shook his head slightly and ignored him.

Li Huan also felt that what he said was not quite right, and chimed in from the other side.

"That's enough. Didn't you want to go eat?"

"Lu Yuan is just a waste in your hands, as long as you..."

"Brother, are these guys bullying you? Should I chase them away?"

Suddenly, Hu Lili walked over carrying a lunchbox and bumped into Qi Qiang.

Qi Qiang didn't dodge immediately. He looked down at the oil stains on his clothes, and the veins on his forehead bulged out.

"Do you know how much this dress cost?!"

"Mr. Qi, why aren't you washing your clothes? These oil stains will be impossible to remove once they dry. If your clothes aren't clean, you can come to me and I'll pay for them."

Lu Yuan smiled and looked at the person in front of him, then spoke softly.

Qi Qiang snorted coldly, then felt a pang of heartache for the clothes he had spent several thousand on. He muttered a curse under his breath and hurriedly looked for a place to take care of them.

After he left, Lu Yuan finally stopped keeping a straight face, but when he thought of that guy's appearance, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Hu Lili asked in a somewhat flustered manner.

"Oh no, are his clothes very expensive...?"

"That's enough. If you really want to pay compensation, I'll do it."

Lu Yuan took the lunchbox from her hand and said with a smile.

In fact, he had been annoyed with Qi Qiang for a long time. If he weren't Li Huan's friend, Lu Yuan wouldn't have bothered to talk to him and would have wanted to kill the guy right now.

After doing all that, he opened the lunchbox and took a look.

This little girl still has some conscience; she didn't serve plain rice with pickled vegetables, at least it's chicken leg rice.

"Thank you this time."

Li Huan approached Lu Yuan, looked at the rice in his bowl, and asked.

"What did you eat?"

"Let me explain first, I only bought two bowls of rice. If you want some, you can have mine instead."

Hu Lili, who was eating nearby, quickly pushed her food over.

Li Huan shook his head repeatedly and looked around.

"Is this all you're eating? Why don't you cook a couple of dishes?"

"We'll make an exception for this case. Besides, we didn't come here for the pleasure. Once things are settled here, we can eat whatever we want, but not right now."

Lu Yuan shook his head slightly and began to speak slowly.

Li Huan was a little embarrassed, but after thinking for a moment, she still voiced her thoughts.

"I made a mistake in this matter. I should have told you beforehand, but Qi Qiang kept bothering me, and I was anxious..."

"Who exactly is he? How come you can't shake him off?"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan put down his chopsticks and looked at the person in front of him with some curiosity.

Li Huan gave a wry smile, and with a hint of helplessness on her face, she shook her head as she spoke about it.

"Let's not talk about this. His father is also my department head, so it's not really appropriate for me to refuse him directly."

"Then I'm finished."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan quickly replied.

"Given that guy's petty nature, he probably won't target me directly. But what should I do if he kicks me out?"

Upon realizing this, Lu Yuan's face immediately fell.

His appearance made Li Huan chuckle. He placed his hand on his forehead with a hint of helplessness, shook his head slightly, and then spoke.

"That's enough. You don't need to look at me like that. This is a problem I created. Don't worry, I'll handle it myself."

"But you'll need to do me another favor later."

"I need to think about that."

Lu Yuan stroked his chin, not agreeing immediately, but instead pondering.

Seeing his expression, Li Huan took two steps forward.

"Then let me tell you a secret: if you perform well at this exhibition, you'll have a chance to open a shop on the Bund."

"And the rent is 30% cheaper than the market rate."

Actually, this news came from within the Ministry of Commerce.

The government also wants to create a pilot area first. As one of the most bustling places in Shanghai, the Bund naturally wants to attract more people.

After all, we can't keep following the old path for the sake of economic development.

Li Huan had some things he didn't say: what he was going to create wasn't just a single shop, but an entire themed street.

Hu Li, who was standing to the side, immediately perked up.

"Wait, if that's the case, what will happen to our original store on Xijing Road?"

"The matter hasn't even happened to us yet, and you're already worrying about money?"

Lu Yuan glanced at her with a mix of amusement and exasperation, then shook his head and spoke again.

"I don't think what you said was wrong, I'm just a little curious, this spot isn't that easy to get, is it?"

"You definitely need a nomination, but with me around, your chances are very good."

Li Huan blinked and said with a smile.

"I think this is a great opportunity for both of us. Would you like to give it a try?"

"Can!"

Lu Yuan actually wanted this opportunity too, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded in agreement.

Qi Qiang looked terrible after spending half a day in the toilet washing off the oil stains on his body.

The suit he was wearing was specially bought abroad. From the craftsmanship to the fabric, it was on a completely different level from those made in China. I wonder how many people would turn their heads to look at him when he walked down the street.

But now that large wet stain looks like a big grime, and it just won't get clean no matter how hard you try.

He had just arrived at the booth when he heard Li Huan chatting enthusiastically with Lu Yuan.

"Then it's settled. I'll come with you later."

"Yes, I haven't eaten yet. We can go eat together later."
