Chapter 269 Mom, Happy Women's Day
After coming out of the jade carving shop, Li Luo walked out of the Intime Department Store building and came to a breakfast shop downstairs.

Ying Chanxi, who was sitting by the window, saw him coming in and immediately waved to him.

Li Luo came to the table and sat down.

On the table were hot wontons, mixed noodles, steamed buns, and fried dumplings.

Ying Chanxi asked for an extra plate, divided the noodles into two portions, and ate the smaller portion for himself.

The wontons are placed in the middle, and each person eats with a spoon.

Seeing Li Luo sitting down, Ying Chanxi asked, "Where's the bracelet?"

"Here." Li Luo handed over the box he had just received, opened it and showed it to Ying Chanxi, "How is it?"

"It's quite beautiful." Ying Chanxi exclaimed, "The words carved here are also very beautiful."

"As long as it looks good." Li Luo smiled when he saw that she seemed to like it.

"Hey, Li Luo." After returning the box to Li Luo, Ying Chanxi suddenly kicked him.

Li Luo just took a bite of the noodles and looked at her puzzledly, "What's wrong?"

"You said... Can you write more about the daily interactions between Shen Dongdong and Li Yang in your novel?"

"for example?"

"For example... like this." Ying Chanxi picked up the spoon he had used, scooped up a wonton, and passed it to Li Luo's mouth, "Ah~ Take a bite."

Li Luo looked at the scene in front of him and felt as if he had seen it before...

But he still opened his mouth and swallowed the wonton in one bite.

Ying Chanxi watched him eat the wontons and immediately laughed happily: "Right, like this, or for example..."

As she spoke, she picked up a napkin, stood up and came over, gently wiped the corner of Li Luo's mouth with her hand, then sat back in her seat and looked at him expectantly: "How, how about it? Is this okay?"

"Um... OK."

Li Luo was savoring the feeling just now, and then he watched Ying Chanxi pick up the spoon he had just used to eat, and scooped a wonton for himself without any hesitation.

Looking at the rosy and tempting lips of Qingmei opposite him, Li Luo was stunned for a moment.

After finishing breakfast, the two of them walked home together.

During this period, Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong met with several real estate agents, met with the landlord on West Street several times, and visited the actual store.

I haven't decided yet which one to buy.

So the breakfast shop at home has never been opened.

When I finished breakfast with Ying Chanxi and returned home with the bracelet, Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong had just gotten up.

It's almost eight o'clock in the morning.

Looking at the couple's current complexion and appearance, they are obviously much better than before the New Year when they had been getting up early to work, and they look very energetic.

"Huh? You two went out for breakfast?"

Lin Xiuhong saw them coming back from outside and couldn't help asking.

Li Luo nodded: "Get up early to go jogging and have breakfast at the same time."

Ying Chanxi put the plastic bag in his hand on the table and said to Lin Xiuhong and Li Guohong, "Aunt Lin, Uncle Li, we bought some breakfast. Eat it while it's hot."

"Oh, I'll be right there. Go wash your face first." Li Guohong walked towards the bathroom. He glanced at the breakfast on the table as he passed by, feeling a little dazed.

In the past, he always wondered when he could stop running the breakfast shop and return to such a normal life.

Looking back now, it seems that this goal has been achieved.

Although their son is only 16 years old, the couple are going to live a life of relying on their son for enjoyment. It is embarrassing to say it out loud, but if you think about it from another perspective, you will feel very proud.

However, compared with the money they earned through hard work, when Li Guohong had the money earned by his son in his hands and had to use it to buy a storefront, an investment product that could easily cost tens or even hundreds of millions, he became more cautious.

Although I had my eyes on several stores, I was a little hesitant and didn't want to make a hasty decision.

Li Luo probably guessed what they were thinking, so while his parents were sitting down to eat breakfast, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and opened his writer's background.

"Guess how much I earned last month?"

"How many?"

"Here."

Li Luo held out his phone. Lin Xiuhong, who was standing close by, took a closer look and was stunned for a moment: "Ah?!"

"Don't be naked!" Li Guohong, who was far away, got up from his seat in a hurry and walked around to Li Luo to take a look. He was also stunned, "Huh?!"

No wonder they looked like that.

Because the royalties data on the writer's backstage clearly showed a full amount of 46.

The main site received 13 yuan in royalties, and the channel royalties totaled 33 yuan!
Not only has it not decreased, it is actually much more than last month.

Before this, Li Luo saved up nearly 50 yuan by earning from songwriting and novel royalties.

Adding the previous 37 yuan, there is more than 80 yuan in cash flow in the bank card.

Now add the 46 yuan in royalties, wouldn't that be more than 120 million yuan? !
How long has it been?

Their son has already earned 100 million!
Although they knew that this moment would come sooner or later, Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong were still a little dazed, staring at the royalty data displayed on their mobile phones in a daze.

This happiness came so quickly that they were a little scared.

But that’s not all.

Li Luo took out two more contracts from his schoolbag and said simply, "These are the two new songs I agreed with Aunt Yuan before."

"One song 'Under the Flying Clouds' cost 15 yuan."

"The Sky Has No Limits is 20."

"And it's not just a buyout. You can participate in the subsequent profit sharing, but the proportion is relatively small."

Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong looked at the two contracts in front of them, and then looked at Li Luo, and they didn't know what to say.

After all the calculations...isn't it 150 million?
"If you calculate it this way..." Lin Xiuhong looked at her husband and couldn't help but whispered, "The 30-square-meter store we looked at before doesn't seem to be very expensive."

"Aren't there 70 square meters and over 100 square meters? They look pretty good too." Li Guohong coughed twice and said with a stern face.

After all, the housing prices in the north of Ningshan are not high now, just over 10,000.

The price of commercial housing will be slightly higher, but considering the geographical location of West Street and the surrounding business environment, it can only be said that it is not much higher, probably about 1.5 times higher.

For example, the 30-square-meter small store that the couple was looking at was priced a bit high because it was right next to the west gate of Qianjiang University. They said they would only consider selling it if the price was or yuan.

Then there is a store of 60 to 70 square meters, and a store of more than 100 square meters, both of which are priced at around 15,000 yuan per square meter. If this is placed in the south of Ningshan, some shops with advantageous geographical locations are usually two or three times more expensive than the surrounding houses.

For properties with particularly good locations, the price may even be as much as four or five times higher.

From this we can see that West Street is indeed a bit run-down.

Although there have been recent news that Yinjiang District is planning to open a new subway line or continue to extend the line at the South Station.

But in the final analysis, it's all hearsay, there's no solid evidence.

In addition, some landlords of storefronts are in a hurry to sell, so the price will not be too high.

Now, with the confidence given by Li Luo, Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong were no longer as hesitant as before and had already made up their minds.

However, Li Luo also reminded: "We don't need to lower the price too much. After the subway is opened, the price will definitely increase a lot. There is no need to haggle about this."

"Don't just limit yourself to buying one store, we can buy a few more. My royalties will continue to arrive in the next few months, and by then I'm sure I'll have two or three million."

"If you start now, you can get a loan even if you don't have enough money on hand."

At this point, Li Luo paused, then continued, "Doesn't Sister Lulu work at CCB? If we deposit the money with her, will it be counted as performance?"

"We can ask her to take the lead in getting to know the manager of their bank and see if we can get some loan business."

"If the performance is good in the future, maybe Sister Lulu can get a promotion too?"

Li Luo just said this casually, but Li Guohong took it to heart.

After all, his two younger sisters, Li Xuefeng and Li Xuemei, had lived a hard life in the past, so it would be a good thing if he could help them a little.

Li Guohong was also pleased that Li Luo could think of this.

"Okay, then let's settle this for now. Your mother and I will take a look at the situation during this period and try to get it done as soon as possible." After Li Guohong made the decision, the matter was settled.

So Li Luo struck while the iron was hot and said jokingly, "Now that our family is so rich, why don't you just stop running that breakfast shop?"

"By then, we can buy three or four stores on West Street. I have to go to school every day, so it's impossible for me to look after them."

"You two will still be responsible for it. Even if you rent it out, you still have to collect rent every month and check on the situation occasionally."

"If I run a breakfast shop again and work so hard every day, wouldn't I be exhausted? Then I feel like all the money I've earned is wasted."

After hearing what he said, Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong looked at each other.

If this had been said before the New Year, or during the New Year in the countryside, the couple would probably have politely refused.

After all, in their opinion, no matter how much money Li Luo earns, they, as parents, still have to work hard and provide more security for the family.

But look at now.

Li Luo's monthly royalties came out, easily earning nearly half a million yuan!
How long will they have to run the breakfast shop to earn that much money?

Not to mention that this guy easily earned more than 300,000 yuan in rewards just by writing two songs.

In the past, how could they have dared to imagine such a thing?
I wouldn't even dream of doing this.

But now, especially since they haven't opened the breakfast shop for almost a month.

Now he goes to bed early and gets up early every day, has a normal work and rest schedule, and his energy and spirit are much better. They both feel it deeply.

So when they heard Li Luo's suggestion, the couple were obviously tempted.

However, perhaps because he still wanted to save face, Li Guohong did not agree immediately. He just said after careful consideration: "Well... I can consider this, but we have to wait until the storefront issue is settled first."

Li Luo nodded in agreement. Seeing that his parents' attitude had softened, he knew there was hope.

But don't worry, just take your time.

This kind of thing is just like when he writes online articles. If his colleagues keep writing 10,000 words every day and get used to it for a long time, they may be able to persevere by keeping the string taut.

But if we let him rest for a few days and then want him to return to his previous state, it would be more painful than killing him.

This is the effect Li Luo wants now.

So far, everything seems to be going well.

If there are better options, who would be willing to get up early and go to bed late every day to work in a breakfast shop?

Listening to Li Luo's family discussing something, Ying Chanxi sat quietly beside them and did not interrupt.

After they finally finished talking, Ying Chanxi took out the clothes and scarf she bought yesterday, handed them to Lin Xiuhong, and said with a sweet smile: "Aunt Lin, happy Women's Day."

Lin Xiuhong had just finished breakfast and looked down at the gift in the bag. She was immediately moved and smiled: "Oh, Xixi, you are so mean. You bought me something during a holiday."

"It's my duty." Ying Chanxi helped Lin Xiuhong take out the clothes and scarf, and said with a smile, "Auntie Lin, would you like to try it on? I think this dress suits you very well."

"Especially with this silk scarf. You and Uncle Li are going out to discuss business soon, so you have to wear this."

“It’s very tasteful all of a sudden~”

Lin Xiuhong took her clothes into the house and changed them. When she came out, she put on the scarf with the help of Ying Chanxi. She stood in front of the mirror, looked left and right, and was very satisfied.

But then she glanced at Li Luo who was watching the fun on the side, and couldn't help but say, "Look at Xixi, she even knew to buy me a gift on Women's Day, why don't you, her own daughter, know how to do that?"

“I sent it too.”

"What did you send?"

"You are not wearing this." Li Luo said innocently, "Xixi and I bought it together. What she gave as a gift is what I gave her."

"You are so shameless." Lin Xiuhong scolded with a smile, "Are you ashamed?"

"Auntie Lin~" Ying Chanxi was also a little amused and said quickly, "Li Luo, you bought a gift, don't talk nonsense."

"Got it." Li Luo laughed and shook his head, took out the small box he got from the jade carving shop this morning, and handed it to his mother, "Here, Happy Women's Day."

"You little boy..." Seeing her son really take out a gift, Lin Xiuhong was still very moved. After reaching out to take it, she curiously opened it and took a look, "It's a bracelet?"

"There are words engraved on it." Ying Chanxi reminded in a low voice.

"Really?" Lin Xiuhong picked up the bracelet and looked at the thumb-sized jade on it. "Oh, it's true. They will grow old together...your father is lucky."

"What do you mean by a bargain for me?" Li Guohong came over to take a look, then said unhappily, "What do you mean by a bargain for me? It's fine if it's not written on it. If you don't want it, just give it to me."

"Why are you joining in the fun?" Lin Xiuhong rolled her eyes at him, quickly put the bracelet on her hand, raised her hand to take a look, and nodded with satisfaction, "You're so thoughtful, it's so beautiful."

"Auntie Lin, as long as you like it."

"Yeah." Lin Xiuhong smiled happily, then took Ying Chanxi's hand and walked towards the door, "Xixi, let's go to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables. We will have a good meal at noon today."

"Okay~"
