Rebirth starts with small money

Chapter 536
"Brother~ wake up!"

"Brother~ the sun is shining on my ass!"

"Get up!"

In the dream~ Chen Li, who is making money in the United States at the moment, stepping on Microsoft~ punching Cisco, suddenly heard the voice of his sister coming from his ear.

Then ~ in an instant, Chen Li understood that he was actually dreaming at this moment.

It's strange to say that when people are dreaming, they occasionally realize that they are dreaming.

Chen Li also encountered this kind of situation before, and after he realized that he was dreaming, he often did some flying and escaping things in his dreams.

But today~ Chen Li didn't do those weird things.

He just calmly looked at the current richest man in the world who was begging him for mercy, and the godfather of Apple who was obediently waiting for him to be interviewed beside the office.

Immediately~ Chen Li smiled in his dream, and then...he woke up.

But after waking up, he laughed again, because he saw Liu Qingqing, who was wearing a white woolen coat, standing in front of his wire bed and staring at him with a smile.

"You came?"

Chen Li smiled and sat up, but he didn't get out of bed. Instead, he stretched out his hand, took Liu Qingqing's hand, and then pulled it along.

Liu Qingqing, who was still smiling just now, suddenly panicked, knowing that Chen Xue was still in the room!
But to Liu Qingqing's surprise, Chen Xue didn't seem to be surprised by this, she just curled her lips~ then turned and left the room, and even kindly helped close the door.

From this point of view~ Chen Li really didn't love this girl for nothing.

But~ Even though Chen Xue left and even helped close the door, Chen Li did not do anything out of the ordinary.

Well, well~ Actually, for Chen Li and Liu Qingqing now, there are actually not many things that qualify as being out of line.

But Chen Li just asked for a kiss from his girlfriend. After all, there are too many relatives in the family at the moment. If he really goes too far, it will not be good for Liu Qingqing.

"what time is it?"

Although the time can be checked on the mobile phone next to him, but at the moment Chen Li is holding his girlfriend in both hands, so naturally he doesn't have time to go and see it in person.

Liu Qingqing felt a little helpless~ But she was used to the intimacy between her boyfriend and herself, so she finally had to raise her hand to look at the watch on her wrist and said:

"It's already 10:[-]!"

"Why are you still sleeping late when it's Chinese New Year?"

"Be careful that Auntie cleans you up!"

The watch on Liu Qingqing's wrist was given to her by Chen Li after returning from Hong Kong Island, but Liu Qingqing didn't know the price of this watch, she only knew that it was a foreign brand, and the name of this brand was
Patek Philippe!

No way ~ At this time in 2000, most people in China didn't know much about luxury goods.

Not to mention Liu Qingqing, even Chen Li, who was reborn from later generations. His understanding of luxury goods is actually limited to the brand name.

That's right~ The reason why I bought a Patek Philippe watch for Liu Qingqing is nothing but one reason.
expensive!
The main reason was that when Chen Li was shopping for gifts for his family, he was really dazzled, so in the end Chen Li simply gave up and chose expensive ones instead!
So in the end~Chen Li bought this Twenty~4 series watch launched by Patek Philippe last year.

After all~ Chen Li still knows a little about the brand of Patek Philippe, although he has never seen it in his previous life. But it does not prevent him from knowing the status of this brand in watches.

Secondly~ This Twenty~4 watch, don't tell me. It's pretty good-looking.

Especially for women, the watch's rectangular case is said to be inspired by what Art Deco style, so the feature is particularly prominent.

And it is said that this watch is Patek Philippe's first model specially designed for women, so Chen Li bought it without saying a word.

Speaking of which, when Chen Li bought this watch, he made a little joke.

In fact, this can't be regarded as a joke, at most, Chen Li doesn't know much about the so-called luxury goods.

At that time ~ under the introduction of Mu Xiaoqing, Chen Li went to the Patek Philippe store on Hong Kong Island, and then he took a fancy to this Twenty~4 that was just launched last year.

Then Chen Li at that time waved his hand, as long as he asked the clerk to pack three sticks for him.

The price of this lady's watch is not cheap~ After all, Patek Philippe is a top leading brand in the watch industry.

In addition, it is 2000 at this moment, so the price of this watch can even be described as ridiculously expensive.

And Chen Li opened his mouth to ask for three watches of the same style. It didn't make people feel that he was strong, and maybe it was more of a feeling of riches and power~ even a feeling of nouveau riche.

Of course~ Chen Li didn't really care about this, because he was actually an upstart at the time.

At that time, Mu Xiaoqing had just completed a delivery of the NASDAQ index, and the 500 million US dollars that Chen Li raised before directly increased by nearly 70%.

So ~ even if the price of this watch is ridiculously expensive, Chen Li still didn't blink his eyelids when he bought it.

It's a pity~Although Chen Li doesn't care much about what others think of him, the output of Patek Philippe is doomed. Chen Lixiang's idea of ​​buying three at a time will come to nothing.

Because there is only the last Twenty~4 left in this store.

Of course, Chen Li understood this!
Because he knows very well that although this so-called hunger marketing is sometimes annoying, it is precisely because of this operation and marketing method that these brands become so-called luxury goods.

After all, no matter how beautiful a watch is made, no matter how touching the story behind it, no matter how sophisticated the craftsmanship is, but.
The function of the watch is to tell the time!
Although some watches are full of bells and whistles, and a lot of credits are added, in fact, most of the time, the function of watches is just to tell the time.

Even with a variety of other functions~ But these functions. Mobile phones can actually do it.

In his previous life, Chen Li didn't like wearing a watch very much, and it was for this reason.

After all, for people at that time, the mobile phone was actually the most indispensable thing.

As for the rumors about the necessary watches for successful people, in Chen Li's opinion, they are somewhat tasteless.

Of course~ The main reason for this may be that Chen Li was not a successful person at that time.

After being reborn, Chen Li gradually got used to wearing a watch, but the watch he wore was the Modu brand watch that his father bought a long time ago.

That's because the reborn Chen Li is more self-disciplined than in his previous life. After all, there is a system in place.

In addition, he didn't have a mobile phone in the early stage, so the role of the watch was magnified a lot for him.

However~ this trip to Hong Kong Island, Chen Li did not buy a watch for himself.

Besides Liu Qingqing, the reason why he wanted to buy three Patek Philippe Twenty~4~ was to give them to his mother and Chen Xue.

After all, something like Patek Philippe~ It is said that you will not lose money if you buy it.

Of course ~ if you count inflation or something, it is still a loss, but in general ~ Compared with other high-value gifts, Patek Philippe is not bad.

So ~ Chen Li bought two other watches from Patek Philippe, and one of them was even more expensive than Twenty~4.

It's just that the watch he gave to Ms. Wang is currently on her wrist, but Chen Xue's watch was confiscated by Ms. Wang.

The reason is also very simple, the current Chen Xue is actually not suitable for wearing any high-end watches.

I have to admit~ Chen Li didn't think of this before.

After going to Patek Philippe at that time, Chen Li only thought that one should not treat the other more favorably, so he bought watches for both Ms. Wang and Chen Xue.

But he ignored that Chen Xue is still a student now.

Although Chen Li did not tell his mother the prices of these watches, Ms. Wang still could tell the prices of these watches from the packaging and Chen Li's expression.

So Chen Xue's watch was confiscated by Ms. Wang, and even she was reluctant to wear her own watch for daily work.

As for Liu Qingqing~ She actually guessed that the watch that Chen Li gave her might be expensive, but with her current experience, it is naturally difficult to guess the real price.

For most people these days, not to mention hundreds of thousands of watches, thousands of watches are considered ridiculously expensive.

After all, the prices of most watches on the market still range from tens to hundreds of yuan.

This is actually the reason why Chen Li dared not tell his family and girlfriend the real price of the watch. If he did, he would not only be considered crazy, but his mother might even order him to return the watch.

"Heh~ eh!"

"Why did my mother clean me up!"

Chen Li yawned, with an unhappy expression on his face.

"You don't know~ I haven't slept well in the past few days."

Chen Li's tone sounded a little aggrieved, um~ okay~ In fact, he was aggrieved at the moment.

Although the Chen family has now moved into a new house, it has become a custom-made furniture because they bought furniture in Rongcheng before. Room.

The most terrible thing is not only this, his second father, like his father, snores loudly after falling asleep, which makes Chen Li miserable.

In this regard, Chen Li's second uncle is smarter~ He doesn't like playing mahjong and lives a very regular life~ Now he goes to bed early every night.

But as a young man, Chen Li found it difficult to go to bed early.

So every night when Chen Li was sleeping, he had to be disturbed by his second father's snoring, which caused Chen Li to go to the system every night and stay at three or four in the morning before going to bed.

Insufficient sleep~ People naturally have no energy, so Chen Li had to find time to catch up on sleep during the day.

It's okay~ he is very different now from before, at least except after he was lectured by his mother when he was sleeping in on the first day of junior high school, he was ignored at other times.

Hmm. This is the benefit of being successful, no one even cares about sleeping late.

Even ~ in the eyes of Chen Li's parents, the reason why Chen Li sleeps in at home is because it is too hard when making money outside.

This kind of treatment~ was never enjoyed by Chen Li in his previous life. It can be seen from this that whether a person is promising or not, the treatment is really different.

Chen Li from the previous life~ But if he dared to sleep in these few days, his mother, Ms. Wang, would have lifted the quilt and cleaned him up with a feather duster.

"Hey~ There are quite a lot of people in my house recently, and I have to share a bed with my three younger sisters at night."

After hearing Chen Li's aggrieved complaints, Liu Qingqing expressed her deep sympathy.

Well~ This is basically the case these years. During the big reunion days like the Spring Festival, accommodation is naturally a big problem.

Some people like to be lively~ For example, Chen Xue, this girl likes to drag Wang Yan and Chen Tingting to sleep in the same room on weekdays, and a few little girls sleep in the same bed and can even talk until two or three in the morning.

But for Chen Li and Liu Qingqing~ this excitement is a bit uncomfortable.

In fact, although the former Liu Qingqing didn't like this situation, it was not unacceptable.

It's just that after being with Chen Li, she was more or less influenced by Chen Li, so now she is not happy about sleeping with her three noisy younger sisters every day.

Of course ~ if you are not happy, you are not happy, Liu Qingqing will not complain about it.

That is, when chatting with Chen Li~ you can take it out and talk about it.

"Okay ~ get up quickly!"

"Auntie said that I'm going to burn incense at the Lingguan Temple today, so I'll be waiting for you!"

Complained a little to her boyfriend, and soon Liu Qingqing became that sensible and well-behaved boy again.

"Ah~ hey, this New Year's Eve is going to the Lingguan Temple to burn incense. Isn't that just looking for crowds?"

When Chen Li heard it~ he felt a little dizzy.

He did not object to his mother going to the Inspiration Temple to burn incense, because he knew very well that his mother did not believe in any feudal superstitions.

In fact, there are no temples or Taoist temples in Erlong Town.

There is only one Lingguan Temple that has been handed down from an unknown age. According to Chen Li's grandmother, it seems to be very effective.

Regarding this~ Chen Li said that he would not comment, because he is very aware of the tricks in it.

This Lingguan Temple~has a very wide range of businesses, such as seeking marriage~seeking children~even birth, old age, sickness and death. It seems that it can manage everything.

In the early years, more people believed in these things, and more people went there. Naturally, the wishes made by a few people always came true.

Especially begging for a child~ It is said that many people went to this Lingguan Temple, and then gave birth to a son at home.
Then ~ one pass ten ~ ten pass a hundred, the news about the very effective Lingguan Temple spread naturally.

Although in recent years ~ with the gradual improvement of the cultural level of the common people, there are fewer and fewer things about feudal superstition.

But in a small place like Erlong Town~ the incense of this Lingguan Temple is still very strong.

Especially during the Spring Festival~ the Lingguan Temple located on the hillside of Wangjiashan is almost full of people.

No~ To be precise, it is the road from Erlong Town to Wangjiashan Lingguan Temple. It can almost be said that people are crowded~ people push people.

In fact, many people don’t believe this at all, but what to say~ everyone is fine during the first month, so let’s go and say goodbye anyway!

At most, it's just a few sticks of incense, and it doesn't cost a lot of money!

So ~ in today's Erlong Town, going to Lingguan Temple to burn incense during the Spring Festival ~ is no longer a feudal superstition, but a traditional custom.

"Okay ~ stop complaining!"

"People in Erlong Town ~ don't they have to go to Lingguan Temple every year?"

"Get up~ What are you wearing today? Is it this suit?"

As Chen Li's girlfriend, Liu Qingqing naturally knew her boyfriend very well, so she got up and took the clothes Chen Li was going to wear today.

And in this way~ Chen Li couldn't continue dawdling any longer. After getting up, he took the clothes from Liu Qingqing.

It's just that when he took the clothes, he pulled them away.
"Boom~!"
