As expected of a woman who has taken the lead in this era, Hua Wenyan has a sharp eye and discovered the future business district in one fell swoop. It's amazing.
This made Lin Qiu even more aware of the gap between himself and business tycoons, but he would work hard, and the gap between him and these business tycoons would only become smaller and smaller in the future.
Lin Qiu stood up and thanked Hua Wenyan: "Thank you very much, Boss Hua, for giving me some advice."
Hua Wenyan laughed loudly: "I'm just giving you a suggestion. Why do you want to be so official? Sit down and eat."
Lin Qiu lowered his head and smiled shyly. Hua Wenyan meant that she treated Lin Qiu as a child and only provided advice to her descendants, not as a business partner.
Hua Wenyan has no problem with thinking this way. If he were in his thirties or forties and had a successful career, and he met a teenage boy who said he wanted to start a company, he would just think that the boy was just playing around. I won't take him seriously.
"Thank you Aunt Hua." Lin Qiu simply accepted this identity. After all, if we get along as friends, we will definitely have more freedom than as partners.
Gou Boy was sitting nearby and was confused. He didn't know why Lin Qiu suddenly changed his tone. He seemed to be much more relaxed and relaxed than at the beginning.
However, he didn't like the serious atmosphere just now, and thought it was fine as it was now.
Hua Wenyan was worthy of being the president of a country. He usually had to deal with very busy matters. The family stayed here for more than half an hour and left without even having a meal.
After seeing them leave, Gou Hai'er and the others simply sat down at the table and started eating. After all, it was Hua Wenyan's money that ordered the most expensive and delicious meal in the hotel, which they usually couldn't eat.
Lin Qiu picked up the meat with two chopsticks and asked, "Does Hua Wenyan come to your place to eat often?" He originally thought that after rejecting her invitation that time, Hua Wenyan would stop contacting them.
Gou Boyer thought for a while and said, "She is usually very busy, so she only comes here for a meal every month or two."
However, according to how busy Hua Wenyan Company is with so many things every day, having a meal here once a month is considered very frequent.
Lin Qiu did not expect that Hua Wenyan would repay his kindness so much. However, Gou Haier has a good character, so it is no wonder that Hua Wenyan likes him, and Hua Wenyan's son also likes Gou Haier very much.
"Will her son come too?" Lin Qiu asked.
"Are you talking about Dongdong? He and I are good friends, and we often write letters." Gou Boyer said happily. Ever since he rescued Dongdong, Dongdong has been visiting him often. During the few days he lived in the ward, Dongdong went there every day.
"Write a letter?" Lin Qiu had never known that the dog boy could read.
When Gou Boy heard this, he blushed and scratched his head: "I really don't know how to read, but I can draw. I often draw some little dolls. Dongdong received the letter. He was very happy and would write in the letter. Brother Monkey can read a lot of things, and I sometimes ask him to read them for me."
Lin Qiu nodded. Among the three children, Gou Haier and Diaozi are more eager to study. Unfortunately, they are all older, so it is unrealistic to go to school now.
But reading can still be done. If you learn more words, it will be less likely to cause problems in business in the future. When people become literate in the future, it will be difficult to live without literacy.
"Do you want to learn how to read?" Lin Qiu looked at the three children. Although he had the idea of letting them learn, the most important thing was to see what the three children themselves thought.
Leprous ate a peanut and waved his hand: "I won't suffer that kind of sin. I have been upset when I saw those words since I was a child."
Dumpling was a little anxious and worried: "I had attended two classes at school, and I felt that what they learned was very difficult. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to learn it even if I did."
Gou Boyer was very interested: "I would like to know a few more words, so that when I reply to Dongdong, I can tell him that we can communicate through words now." He went over and took Lin Qiu's arm. In his heart, whatever Brother Lin Qiu says will definitely come true.
Lin Qiu could tell that Lefu didn't care about studying. Dumpling might have wanted to study, but was distracted by the atmosphere of the school.
"Jiaozi, you can learn a few words first. You can't always be a waiter in a restaurant in the future, right?" Lin Qiu patted Gou Boy's hand and said, "I can see that you are a serious person who wants to learn. I will bring you some books next time, and you can practice calligraphy more every night and learn Pinyin."
The dog boy was very happy and shook Lin Qiu's arm: "Thank you very much, Brother Qiu. When I can read, I will also write a letter to Brother Monkey."
Seeing the happy look on the dog boy's face, Dumpling didn't quite understand: "Is it so important to read and write? Me and leprosy don't know a word about leprosy, so we can still live quite well."
Lin Qiu thought for a while and said: "You can live a good life now, but the mainstream of the future is learning. Learning changes destiny, and technology builds a strong country. If you don't study, you will fall behind sooner or later, not only in terms of reading and literacy. Even your social life needs learning."
Lin Qiu spoke sincerely. These words were the same as what he had said to persuade the monkey back then. However, he did not let the monkey embark on the old path of learning. These words could not impress Leprosy and Dumplings now either.
Finally seeing the hesitating expressions of the two people, Lin Qiu felt a sense of despair that history was repeating itself. Monkey would undergo some changes because of his mother, and this was his opportunity. What about these two children?
Lin Qiu couldn't figure it out. He had persuaded him anyway. Whether the two children listened or not was their business.
"Dog boy, let me take you to buy some textbooks." Lin Qiu thought for a while: "You two should come together, the four of us haven't gone shopping for a long time."
"Okay!" All three of them cheered.
The place they went to this time happened to be Sanlitun. At this time, Sanlitun is still half residential building and half snack street. Six-story small Western-style buildings were scattered relatively densely on the streets of the main road. At this time, there was a primary school next to Sanlitun.
The area around the elementary school is full of bookstalls and small shops.
Dog Boy is the youngest among the three children and the most curious. Now he is picking up snacks one after another on the street stall.
"Brother Lin Qiu, what do you think marshmallows taste like?" he asked roundly with his eyes wide open.
"I haven't eaten it either. Let's buy it and try it." Lin Qiu bought four skewers with a swipe of his pen. He had indeed never eaten this kind of marshmallow, the kind of molecular food that can be rolled out with a few grams of white sugar and be as big as a head. His parents couldn't afford it for him when he was a child in his previous life. When he grew up, he felt childish and never tried to eat it.
The three children held up the marshmallow and took a bite: "Wow, it's delicious. It's so soft, really like cotton."
"So little white sugar actually makes such a big pile of marshmallows, wouldn't it last a long time?"
"If I learn how to make marshmallows and sell them on the street, I will definitely make a lot of money." Dumpling said enthusiastically.
