Chapter 434 Growth 2
When women get together to play, if there is no one urging them, they will definitely stay out for days and nights.
If it weren't for Lu Qiaoling's repeated warnings, Fang Luoyi might have already crossed the sea to Macau to have fun with Miss He.
12pm on New Year's Day, Barker Road.
Ergouzi, who is already 1 year and 3 months old, was shaking his chubby body and running around in the living room on the first floor following his sister, having a lot of fun.
Fang Hexuan thought several times that he was going to fall because of his short legs, but this little fat boy was like a tumbler and escaped danger every time.
You know what, thanks to Ergou's mischief and trouble-making, the huge villa really adds a lot of festive atmosphere.
The family of five had a lively reunion dinner, which finally made Lu Qiaoling's originally depressed mood a little better.
That’s right, the little fat boy also sat at the table. To the surprise of his older brothers and sisters, he was not as active as the other children, but ate the food in his bowl obediently. It was surprising how worry-free he was.
As for why Lu Qiaoling was in such a depressed mood, it was naturally caused by Fang Hexuan and Fang Luoyi, two troublesome people.
As the saying goes, children grow up and are no longer under the control of their mothers. In the past two years, Lu Qiaoling has deeply experienced this strong sense of loss.
Compared to the time when he was a little kid and used to be dependent and clingy all the time around her, her eldest son Fang Hexuan's career has been getting bigger and bigger, and he has been getting busier and busier. He even said he didn't have time to come back for dinner on New Year's Day. This made Lu Qiaoling so angry that she couldn't sleep for a long time.
As mentioned before, Fang Hexuan had promised to accompany Lizhi during the first two days of New Year's Day, but in the end he gave in to the plaintive tone of his mother's phone call and agreed to go home.
As for Lizhi, she was naturally coaxed and asked to go home and accompany her old father.
Fang Luoyi went even further. This girl actually wanted to go to Macau for two days and didn't even want to stay in Hong Kong. This made Lu Qiaoling even more furious.
After dinner, Fang Hexuan played with the little fat boy on the carpet in the living room with a childish version of Transformers building blocks.
Because they are protected and entertaining, they help exercise children's brains. This kind of assembly toys suitable for children aged 1-5 are very popular in the market.
At least the little fat boy liked it very much. Although he couldn't even put together a complete robot model at the beginning, he didn't find it boring or tedious at all, which made Fang Hexuan secretly amazed.
Not long after playing, Fang Luoyi handed over a washed apple and smiled ingratiatingly at her brother.
Fang Hexuan looked at her suspiciously, took the apple and took a bite, then exposed her without giving her face:
"You are being so attentive to me for no reason. Do you want something from me? Tell me."
Fang Luoyi was not embarrassed either, she said with a smile:
"Can't you just talk to my good brother if nothing happens?"
Fang Hexuan curled his lips and said sarcastically:
"Stop it! If you want to have a heart-to-heart talk, your sister Tong is a hundred times more unsuitable than me? If you don't want to talk, don't talk about it."
Fang Luoyi saw that her little thoughts were seen through by her brother, and said anxiously:
"Hehe, you cheapskate, just tell me, I want to open a Felix brand store near the school."
Hearing this, Fang Hexuan was stunned at first, then stared at his sister in astonishment for a full minute, then touched his nose and asked in confusion:
"Why do you have such an idea? Did you think of it yourself or did Miss He remind you of it?"
Fang Luoyi felt that her brother looked down upon her. She rolled her eyes and said proudly:
"Brother, don't look down on me. I am also studying management. But no matter how well you know the knowledge in books, without practical experience, no matter how good the methodology is, it is just a castle in the air."
Fang Hexuan nodded subconsciously and asked faintly:
“So you’re just going to open a store first?”
Fang Luoyi smiled and nodded repeatedly, and asked proudly:
"Yeah, bro, what do you think?"
Fang Hexuan pinched his chin and thought for a moment. He felt that even if he failed, it would not be a big loss. However, he wanted to save face, so he squinted his eyes and said slowly, "It's not impossible to open a store, but do you have the capital?"
After hearing this, Fang Luoyi's eyes widened, she snorted, and said unhappily:
"I'm your sister, can't you help me?"
Fang Hexuan simply shook his head and refused:
"No, I'm 100% self-made. I don't rely on anyone. Do you have the nerve to ask me for help?"
Fang Luoyi curled her lips, thinking, I am a girl, how can I compare with a rough man like you? So she blinked and asked:
"I'll ask my mom for help, is that okay?"
Fang Hexuan chuckled twice and said sinisterly:
"Don't dream, I will persuade my mother."
Fang Luoyi looked miserable, and then asked pitifully:
"Then consider it as a loan from me. I will definitely return it to you later."
Fang Hexuan asked with a smile:
"When will it be returned? This needs to be made clear."
Fang Luoyi gritted his teeth and said bitterly:
"Humph, pay off all expenses and loans within one year after opening."
Fang Hexuan nodded with satisfaction and said:
“This commitment must be written into the contract.”
Fang Luoyi snorted and turned away to ignore her brother, which was considered as her agreement.
However, Fang Hexuan did not intend to let her go so easily, but continued to ask:
"I can promise to help you open a store, but I want to know your business ideas. The more detailed the better."
Fang Luoyi rolled her eyes at him, then turned and ran into her room. In less than a moment, the girl returned to the living room, handing over a printed document.
As soon as Fang Hexuan saw this, he knew that the man came prepared, so he didn't argue, but took the document and read it carefully.
Fang Luoyi was not idle either. As her brother was reading the documents, she said:
“I also joined some clubs at Harvard, such as sororities and the women’s soccer team, and participated in some fraternity activities.”
“So I thought, instead of spending a lot of effort on advertising in newspapers and on TV, I should first capture the entire Boston campus market.”
"According to this line of thinking, there are so many resources I can use."
After hearing this, Fang Hexuan raised his head, put down the document and asked deliberately:
"Oh? I'm actually very curious."
Fang Luoyi rolled his eyes and answered confidently:
"I found that in American campus culture, star students are often the focus of attention of all teachers and students. They naturally have topics and the right to speak."
"So, I thought, I can find these people to help promote Felix. I can provide them with sports supplies for free, and even give them some additional endorsement fees."
"At least as far as I know, Harvard's basketball team, canoe team, football team, baseball team and cheerleading teams are all teams I can work with."
"First, I'll take over Harvard University, and then slowly expand to other schools in Boston. I believe that within half a year, my brand store will be well-known throughout Boston, and perhaps opening a second or third store will not be impossible."
