Volume 7 I've Been Here Chapter 1034 Who is the Prey
"Don't try to hide your flaws here. For most men, women who are too big here can't be associated with intelligence."
Seeing what Nan Yi was doing and what he was saying, Qiu Man blushed just the right amount.
A Jing, who was not far away, saw the two red spots, and a hint of amusement and sarcasm appeared at the corners of her mouth. Xu Hui, who was next to her, had the word "bitch" floating in his mind, and Yi Qianxi, who was next to her, was wondering whether she should tell her cousin's wife.
Nan Yi picked up a bowling ball from the rack, walked to the lane and threw it. The bowling ball rolled for a distance and hit the pins. The pins flew at a good angle and all the pins were knocked down.
"Good shot." Nan Yi celebrated and said to Qiu Man who was trying to find the feel of the ball in the next lane: "Miss Qiu, I have good luck. It's up to you."
“I hope luck will favor me too.”
Qiu Man responded with a smile, adjusting the ball holding position in her hand, and when she felt right, she swung her hand and the bowling ball flew out of her hand. The bowling ball rolled for a while and hit the pins in the middle, toppling over with the pins, leaving only the two on the far left motionless.
Seeing this, Qiu Man shouted excitedly: "My luck is not bad either."
"Yes, it's good. You can play Spare. While you are feeling good, make up the ball quickly."
For Qiu Man, playing ball was not the main point. She shook her wrist and said, "I need to slow down. I just twisted my hand."
"Are you okay?" Nan Yi walked closer and asked.
Qiu Man clenched his fist and unclenched it twice before saying, "It's not serious, Mr. Nan, let's slow down the pace."
"No, your hand is twisted to any size. Let's just consider it a draw and go off the court together to give up the fairway."
Qiu Man hesitated for a moment, "Okay."
The two returned to the rest area, and Xu Hui and Yi Qianxi took over. Qiu Man went to rinse her hands with cold water, leaving only Nan Yi and A Jing at the leisure table.
"Brother Nan, do you want to come over to my place tonight?"
"Just sit down?"
"Yes, the business in the store is very slow. Brother Nan, you don't come here on your own initiative, so I have to force you to come." Ah Jing smiled.
Nan Yi glanced at his watch and said, "Let's go tomorrow. It's the weekend. I'll take Liu Zhen to your place for an afternoon, with drinks and food, so you can earn more at once."
"Haha, sister-in-law, it's free, I'll only charge you, Brother Nan, the money." Ajing said happily.
Jing Teahouse is both a business and a non-business. Jing doesn't care about the number of tea drinkers, but only their identities. The God of Wealth like Liu Zhen is the type of tea drinker she prefers.
"Ah Jing, you are discriminating against me. Why can't you exempt me from accepting Liu Zhen?"
"Haha, no matter who you collect it from, it makes no difference to Brother Nan. In the end, you'll be the one paying for it."
"Tsk...that's what's going on." Nan Yi smacked his lips and suddenly realized.
Suddenly, Ah Jing changed the subject, "Brother Nan, I saw that you and Qiu Man were having a very good chat just now, what were you talking about?"
"We didn't talk about anything, just a little bit about children's education."
"Brother Nan, did you find the wrong person to chat with? Qiu Man doesn't have any children, how can you and her chat together?"
"I have an adopted daughter whom I treat as my own daughter. She also happens to be studying at Columbia. She chatted with Miss Qiu about school topics." Nan Yi said lightly.
“I see.”
A Jing wanted to say something, but Qiu Man's figure had already appeared in her eyes, so she stopped talking.
Qiu Man was just upset in the bathroom, blaming herself for overexerting herself. When she came down the fairway, with Ah Jing standing by her side, it was inconvenient for her to talk to Nan Yi. Now she had made up her mind to let it go for now, get Nan Yi's contact information through Xu Hui, the stinky woman, and then take it slowly.
On the side of the fairway, Yi Qianxi and Xu Hui were talking and laughing. Although she had heard about Xu Hui's past, it did not prevent her from being on good terms with him. She also did not care whether Xu Hui and Nan Yi had an ambiguous relationship. Just as she knew about the relationship between Gong Xue and Nan Yi, she pretended not to know and just fully enjoyed Gong Xue's care.
At the casual table, from the moment we became three people, the topic revolved only around bowling.
The five people present all have their own minds and none of them are good people.
They played ball until dinner time, and having dinner together became a natural thing. With his cousins and three girls, Nan Yi naturally couldn't be the center of attention. In fact, most of the time it was four plus one, with the four of them chattering and him listening on the side.
After returning to the old villa, before going to bed, Nan Yi and Liu Zhen talked about going to Ajing's house for tea tomorrow.
"What role is Jing?"
"Be a broker, integrate resources and match them."
"Is she useful to you?"
"Not really. Just be yourself and don't think about me."
"I see. It's inconvenient for my nephew to sleep on the floor. Why don't we let him sleep in Wuwei's room?"
"I have already rented a house for him and he will move in tomorrow. I will clean up the studio and turn it into a guest room later so that there will be room for others to stay the night."
"Why bother? Wuwei's room is ready."
Nan Yi turned over and said, "I can't explain it to you clearly, go to sleep."
"Tsk, my son is my god, you can't touch his things, and you can't just go into his room."
"I don't want to quarrel, just shut up."
"Hmph, don't point the fan at me, it's cold."
Nan Yi stood up and turned off the fan's shaking head, then adjusted its direction to aim at his own position.
He closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep. Just as Nan Yi was about to fall asleep, Liu Zhen kicked his calf with her toes, "I'm hot."
"ill."
Nan Yi complained, turned on the fan's oscillating function, and then hugged Liu Zhen to sleep.
The night was quiet.
The next day, the weather became very hot early in the morning. Tiger Cubs had just sent Yan Zhenhua away, and the old house where they had returned to being just a world for the two of them, when World War III broke out.
The fuse was Hami melon and tomato. Liu Zhen ate Hami melon and Nan Yi ate tomato while watching a movie. Nan Yi had just taken a bite when Liu Zhen made the unreasonable request to let her take another bite. Nan Yi, in order to maintain the integrity of her sovereignty, flatly refused and advised the other party not to go further and further on the wrong path and to return to the right path.
Not only did Liu Zhen refuse to listen to the advice, he also launched a sneak attack. Nan Yi, in line with the principle of peaceful coexistence, tried his best to exercise restraint and only condemned Liu Zhen morally without resorting to force. However, Nan Yi's concession did not bring peace, but only brought about Liu Zhen's crazy attack. Unable to bear it any longer, Nan Yi traveled a long distance to seek Liu Zhen's help.
After winning several battles, the angry Liu Zhen reactionaries disregarded international conventions and launched a proton war, threatening Nan Wuwei's safety. Nan Yi knelt down and offered a tomato.
When Liu Zhen was tearing a tomato proudly, the tiger cub's voice rang out, reminding Nan Yi that there was a new email.
The email was forwarded by Yunxiao Tobacco Group from Zimbabwe. A large tobacco plantation owner wanted to sell his plantation, and the group's president Huang Hexiang asked whether he wanted to acquire it.
Nanyi logged into TTM, clicked on a discussion group, and typed in a sentence: "How long will it take for a land revolution to break out in Zimbabwe?"
Although Zimbabwe's sovereignty was violated during its colonial period, its resource advantages such as rich mineral resources, cheap labor, and cheap land rent attracted a large influx of white people, which promoted the local industrialization process and changed Zimbabwe's agricultural-based economic structure.
The influx of a large number of white people provided advanced technology to backward Zimbabwe and promoted the expansion of the domestic economic market.
In 1980, Zimbabwe became independent and black people began to be masters of their own destiny. However, at that time, millions of black people in Zimbabwe were still agricultural households, and the land they owned only accounted for 51% of the country's land area. The other 49% of the land supported less than 300,000 white people.
Not only do white people own more land, but the soil is also fertile. Black people can only maintain food production on barren land, so Zimbabwe's food economy is in the hands of white people, not black people.
When Zimbabwe was about to become independent, Britain signed an agreement with the black government of Zimbabwe in order to protect the interests of the country's white people: give the white people a certain buffer period, during which no land reform will be carried out on them, and even if reforms are carried out in the future, the white people will be compensated.
After Zimbabwe declared independence, the West reduced its support for Zimbabwe's development. However, with the good foundation laid before, Zimbabwe's domestic productivity is relatively sufficient, and it has abundant food and the world's best tobacco "Golden Leaf" for export and foreign exchange, so the country lives a happy life.
[Zimbabwe's climate is very suitable for growing tobacco leaves. The tobacco leaves produced there are the best in the world. Many high-end cigarettes are mixed with 15%-20% Zimbabwean tobacco. Zimbabwe produces about 200,000 tons of tobacco leaves annually, of which 120,000 tons come to us.]
After working hard for several years, the family fortune left behind was almost exhausted and Zimbabwe's economy showed signs of decline. Coincidentally, Mugabe, a great Zimbabwean leader, completely took control of the army and people's satisfaction with him soared to 98%. He was ambitious and tried to take the land occupied by the colonists through violence, which violated the promise made by the Zimbabwean government to Britain at the time, damaged the interests of white farmers, and caused their dissatisfaction and panic.
Now it's just a rumor that will be put into large-scale action. The white people who want to sell tobacco plantations should have a keen nose.
Nan Yi is not interested in buying the plantation himself, and it would be difficult for him to keep it once it gets the chance. Buying it at this time means he is the one taking over. He will not buy it himself, but he can consider sponsoring the black dignitaries in Zimbabwe to buy it.
Even if the land in the hands of white people is taken back, it will never be given to ordinary black people in Zimbabwe. It will only enrich the black powerful.
After a period of debate in the discussion group, opinions began to converge, with most people leaning towards four years. After coming to a conclusion on the time frame, the next step was to discuss the feasibility of sponsoring black dignitaries, the costs required and the possible benefits, as well as the selection of sponsorship targets.
Nan Yi was busy with work, and Liu Zhen was not tactless and threw a tantrum. She made tea and washed green grapes, showing the demeanor of a good wife and mother.
With a green grape in his mouth and his fingers flying, Nan Yi thought to himself that this woman was okay and they could still live a normal life.
After discussing for over an hour, some issues were still unclear and required further information collection and public relations. The matter was put on hold for the time being and the next discussion would be held when preparations were fully made.
As soon as Nan Yi closed his notebook, Liu Zhen pointed at the TV and said, "Is this company yours?"
The TV was broadcasting a news bulletin from Shandong Provincial TV Station. Luo Shenshen's Baishui Investment had signed an investment agreement with a fishing rod factory called Changxu in Shandong Province. No one knew whose idea it was, but such a small matter was actually broadcast on TV.
“I guess so.”
Liu Zhen complained when he heard this: "Baishui, what a crappy name."
Nan Yi glanced at Liu Zhen with disdain. "Baishui means pure and innocent, just like water. There is a passage in Zuo Zhuan that says 'Those who do not share the same mind as my uncle are like Baishui', which means to keep one's word. Baishui is the word for spring, which means money. Quanbi means currency. What a good name! How dare you reveal the name?"
"Even if the name is okay, you are too shortsighted. Companies that produce fishing rods also need to invest." Liu Zhen ridiculed him.
"You are a loan shark, you know nothing. I invest in high-tech."
"Tsk, new concept fishing rod or new energy fishing rod? Will it send a message to your Quick Translator when a fish is hooked?"
"Not only can it send information, it can also transmit signals to satellites, and then the satellites can send signals to our pots, and the oil and salt will jump into the pot by themselves, and the pot will cook braised fish by itself. There is also a broken machine called Liu Zhen that can eat by itself."
"Mr. Nan, do you want to argue with me?" Liu Zhen grabbed the cantaloupe rind on the coffee table and glared at Nan Yi.
"Carry the pole, I will carry the coffin for you directly."
"If you curse me, I will fight you to the death."
Liu Zhen jumped up, pounced on Nan Yi, and stuffed the cantaloupe rind in his hand into Nan Yi's mouth.
"Bah, bah, bah, I'm warning you, next time you hit me I'm going to fight back, and I can break your jaw with one kick."
"Kick in the chin, I'll let you kick in the chin." Liu Zhen bared her teeth and clawed Nan Yi's hair into a bird's nest, "You are capable, right? You are full of energy, right? Now you are showing off your ability. You peed again on the bed. If you are really capable, kill me tonight."
"You are too ugly, I can't use my real kung fu."
"Ah... I told you to say I'm ugly, I told you to be mean, take your hand away, I'll count to one, two, three, if you don't take it away..."
Without waiting for Liu Zhen to finish her words, Nan Yi grabbed Liu Zhen's trouser waist with his left hand, stepped on the sofa, and passed his right hand through Liu Zhen's armpit. With a twist, Liu Zhen was turned over by Nan Yi. His left hand slid to her ankles, pinched and lifted her up, then suddenly let her down, repeating this process repeatedly. Liu Zhen was like a frog hung on a fishhook to catch snakehead, being lifted and released rhythmically.
"Nan, put me down, or I will never let you go."
"You still dare to be stubborn. Call me daddy. I won't let go unless you call me." Nan Yi let go again, and Liu Zhen's face just touched the ground before he stopped.
"Mr. Nan, I want your life."
"Still being stubborn, I'm telling you, I'm running out of strength, I may not be able to hold you up later, hurry up and call daddy."
As he spoke, Nan Yi loosened his grip on Liu Zhen's ankle, and waited until Liu Zhen fell three or four centimeters before grabbing her again. This action scared Liu Zhen so much that she begged for mercy, "Put me down quickly, I'm scared."
"Call me daddy."
"Dad, Dad, put me down."
"good……"
Nan Yi hadn't finished playing with his treasure yet, when the signal receiver on the coffee table began to vibrate without a rhythm. Seeing this, Nan Yi quickly looked towards the door, and his eyes met the look that the fairy was giving him.
"Not good." Nan Yi muttered in his heart, and quickly turned Liu Zhen's body back and put it on the sofa, and then said: "Stop making trouble, someone is coming, it's either your house or mine."
When Liu Zhen heard Nan Yi's words, she didn't care about revenge and hurriedly tidied herself up. Before she could finish, Liu Genmu, wearing a Ruifengxiang suit and holding a purple clay teapot in his hand, stepped into the living room.
"I didn't check the calendar this morning." Nan Yi complained inwardly, and with a smile on his face, he shouted to Liu Genmu: "Dad, it's so hot, why didn't you call me if you wanted to come over so that I could send someone to pick you up."
"I was out for a walk this morning and happened to pass by here. I thought you should be home on Saturday, so I had lunch here." Liu Genmu said, walking straight to the long table, putting down the purple clay teapot in his hand, and shaking the thermos. "Look at how you live your life. You don't even boil water."
"It's so hot, why don't you drink something cold? Dad, please sit down first, I'll go and boil it." Nan Yi said, raising his leg and walking towards the kitchen.
"Don't move. Let Liu Zhen go." Liu Genmu stopped Nan Yi and said to Liu Zhen, "It's outrageous. How can a wife let a grown man go into the kitchen?"
Liu Zhen did not respond to Liu Genmu's words, but said in a bad tone: "Dad, you have been coming here a little too often recently."
When Liu Genmu heard this, veins popped up on his face. "Why, I can't come here? Even if you don't recognize me as your father, Nan Yi is still my son-in-law. I can come whenever I want."
Listening to the conversation between the father and daughter, Nan Yi instantly formed a line in his mind: Liu Genmu should have come to Liu Zhen several times before to ask for money. As for what he did with the money, he had four guesses: gambling, pyramid schemes, picking up bargains, and being coquettish in old age.
Nan Yi only hoped that Liu Genmu was in the last two items, or preferably the third one, as this would be the least troublesome and being cheated of money was just a small matter for him.
Liu Zhen stiffened his neck and snorted, "You can come if you want, you can stay for dinner, but you don't have a penny if you want money."
Liu Genmu was furious when he heard this, and turned to Nan Yi and said, "Nan Yi, listen to this, is this what a daughter should say to her father?"
"That's too much." Nan Yi pointed at Liu Zhen, then walked to Liu Genmu and helped him sit down at the table. "Dad, if you want money, tell me. Do you want to buy a starling or a thrush?"
"this……"
Liu Genmu hesitated to speak, feeling embarrassed to say it out loud.
Seeing Liu Genmu's character, Nan Yi directly ruled out pyramid schemes and picking up bargains. The remaining two were more likely gambling. If he was old and still playful, he would probably be embarrassed to ask Liu Zhen for money.
"Dad, have you gotten too big into playing cards?" Nan Yi asked tentatively.
"Nan Yi, don't ask, he often goes to the millet shop recently." Liu Zhen said shyly.
Liu Genmu shot up from his chair with a whoosh, and said with a blushing face, "I have something else to do. I won't eat here anymore."
After saying that, he took two steps at a time and disappeared from the living room in the blink of an eye.
"You have such nimble legs and feet, no wonder you have the energy to go to the millet shop." Nan Yi sighed, then turned to Liu Zhen and said, "You are quite open-minded. You dare to give this kind of money. If my mother knew about it, you probably wouldn't have a mother anymore."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I want to know how I could possibly give it to him. Last time, when Dad came to get the money, I thought something was not right. He has a lot of pocket money every month, how could he spend it so quickly? So I asked Wu Kun to follow him, and Wu Kun saw Dad coming out of a store in Guzidian."
"Oh, I was wondering why you were so irritable just now." Nan Yi chuckled, "Now it's good, you've broken the window paper, and Dad will be embarrassed to go there again in the future. Forget it, and don't mention it again in the future."
Liu Zhen rolled her eyes at Nan Yi and said, "I must be sick to talk about such embarrassing things."
"Let's go, let's not cook, let's go out and eat."
Nan Yi didn't take Liu Genmu's matter to heart and pulled Liu Zhen out the door.
Just as he got into the car, his phone rang. He saw that the number was from Gong Xue. He picked up the phone and said calmly, "What's the matter?"
Gong Xue on the other end of the phone knew that it was inconvenient for him to hear Nan Yi's tone, so she said directly: "Xu Hui just called me and said that Qiu Man asked her for your number and asked if you would give it to her."
"Ask him in person?"
"Yes, Xu Hui and Qiu Man are having dinner together."
"Give it to her, but don't give it easily. Tell her that I want to know how sincere the other party is. Let her decide."
"You're attracted to her?"
"We'll discuss this later. That's it for now. I'm hanging up."
Hearing the busy tone coming from the phone, Gong Xue uttered a complaint.
As soon as Nan Yi put down the phone, Liu Zhen said, "Aren't you on vacation? Why haven't you finished your work yet?"
"If I don't carry the burden and move forward, how can you have a peaceful life?"
"Why do you pretend to be great? Where can you eat?"
"You decide."
"It's my decision."
After dinner, Nan Yi and his friend went to Jing Teahouse. Ah Jing was there, wearing a cheongsam, which really highlighted her temperament.
After introducing each other, Ajing took Nan Yi and the other person to a private box.
After entering the private room, Ah Jing handed Nan Yi a tea menu, "Brother Nan, Brother Wang will be here soon."
Nan Yi took the tea order and said, "I see there are books in the lobby. I'll send two over later. Liu Zhen and I will enjoy the private space for two hours first."
Ah Jing nodded, "We have a new batch of Lao Ban Zhang in the store, would you like to try it, Brother Nan?"
"Old tree?"
“The oldest one.”
"Oh, what's the price?"
"Not expensive, just a few dollars per kilogram."
“Is there an Iceland?”
"have."
"Bring me a pot of each, and I'll compare their tastes."
After Ah Jing left, Liu Zhen asked, "Did it flow out of your hand?"
"Probably not. Pu'er tea is speculative, but the time is not right yet. My family's company is still busy improving tea varieties and building tea gardens. We haven't shipped much. We only gave one batch of goods to Snow Mountain Trust, and the rest are in stock."
"Ready to buy low and sell high?"
Nan Yi nodded, "Yes, everyone can share some of the profits."
