Chapter 85 Looking for a Buyer
Gu Wenfeng came back with dinner, this time it was rice with steamed fish and fish-flavored eggplant: "The doctor said that eating porridge all the time is not good, the nutrition is not enough. I remember you like to eat yellow croaker, and the store happened to buy a few yellow croakers."
After three days, Lu Jiaxin finally had a full meal.
That night she did not have a fever again, and the doctor gave her a discharge certificate the next day. It cost 31 yuan to stay in the hospital for four days, which is half a month's salary for ordinary people. No matter what era, being sick costs money.
Gu Wenfeng has been taking care of Lu Jiaxin in the hospital these days. He was worried that there would be sudden situations, and he dared not leave except to buy food. So after leaving the hospital, he planned to take Lu Jiaxin to rent a house. .
Lu Jiaxin had changed her mind a long time ago: "No renting a house, let's go to Guangzhou."
It was only after talking to Lu Jiaguang on the phone that she realized that although Pengcheng is a special zone, Guangzhou is the center where rich people gather. Especially the five-star hotel that was built last year and opened at the beginning of this year is definitely a place where rich people gather.
Gu Wenfeng was a little puzzled as to why he suddenly changed his mind. He said, "Miss Lu, I don't know anyone in Yangcheng. Once we go to Yangcheng, we can only rely on ourselves to find out the news."
Lu Jiaxin explained, "I was thinking wrong before. We should find a middleman and ask the middleman to help sell the painting. The real rich people in Hong Kong should gather in Yangcheng, not Pengcheng."
She was influenced by her thinking in her previous life and thought that there were many rich people in Pengcheng. But she forgot that it was only three years since it was designated as a special economic zone, not a first-tier city forty years later.
Gu Wenfeng asked back, "We don't know anyone in Yangcheng, and the middleman we find out may not be reliable."
Lu Jiaxin said that there was no rush: "Have you heard about the Swan Hotel? Let's stay there for a few days first, and then plan the rest slowly."
"Where do you think we can find a buyer?"
"I don't know, let's go there first."
Gu Wenfeng couldn't persuade her, so he had to go to the train station with her. There was no way, Lu Jiaxin had no problem taking the train, but she vomited as soon as she got on the car.
Arriving in Guangzhou, the two went to the Swan Hotel. She had stayed here twice before and was quite familiar with it. As soon as she entered the hotel lobby, she saw the landscape in her memory, lush trees, gurgling water, and waterfalls gushing out from the rocks.
Gu Wenfeng was shocked when he entered the hotel. If he hadn't known in advance that this was a hotel, he would have mistakenly thought he had entered a park. Well, the park is not so beautiful.
Lu Jiaxin went to the front desk to check in and found that Gu Wenfeng was still admiring the beautiful scenery inside. She walked over and said with a smile: "Let's go, our room is on the third floor."
"Three floors, how many floors does this hotel have?"
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said: "This hotel has a total of 28 floors, and the third floor is the bottom floor. I'm a little tired. If you want to see more, I'll go upstairs first."
The hotel is also located on the waterway, and the building height cannot exceed 100 meters, otherwise it will be taller and more spacious. She just heard the waiter explaining to someone that the people here said there are more than 800 rooms. But even so, there won't be enough rooms when there are important events or other reasons.
Gu Wenfeng couldn't let her go upstairs alone. He was so shocked that he didn't know when Lu Jiaxin had completed the formalities. If he was on a mission, such a mistake would be fatal.
Because the third floor was not very high, Gu Wenfeng wanted to take the stairs, but Lu Jiaxin insisted on taking the elevator. Gu Wenfeng thought she had never taken an elevator before and wanted to experience it, so he didn't stop her.
Lu Jiaxin's room was adjacent to Gu Wenfeng's. Before she entered the room, she said to Gu Wenfeng: "I'll go to sleep for a while. You can put down your things and continue to enjoy the scenery in the lobby. Brother Gu, the security measures of this hotel are very good, and the people living on the roof are all rich people. You don't have to worry about me."
Even if they want to kidnap, they will go to those rich people, not to a poor girl like her.
Gu Wenfeng said: "Then I'll go out later. Don't go out before I come back."
Lu Jiaxin agreed: "I haven't rested well these days. Maybe I'll still be asleep when you come back."
The rooms here all have separate bathrooms and hot water. As soon as Lu Jiaxin locked the door, she immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower. In the more than two months since she came here, the thing she was most uncomfortable with was the lack of a water heater and a flush toilet.
She washed from head to toe, and then found a hair dryer to dry her hair. Living here, Lu Jiaxin felt like she had returned to the 21st century.
She climbed onto the bed and fell asleep quickly. Before she fell asleep, she thought that she must build a bathroom when she returned. By the way, she also had to buy a hair dryer. It was too inconvenient without this thing.
Lu Jiaxin slept until dark, and it was because she was hungry, otherwise she could continue to sleep. While washing her face, someone knocked on the door outside.
Lu Jiaxin heard Gu Wenfeng's voice and opened the door to let him in: "I was just about to look for you, but I didn't expect you to come first."
Gu Wenfeng heard a sound in her room and thought that he should have gotten up: "Miss Lu, I just came back and met Mr. Su and Su Heyuan when I was waiting for the elevator."
Lu Jiaxin habitually searched in her memory and found that she didn't know these two people. Just when she was about to ask who these two people were, a light bulb suddenly lit up in her head: "Are they Su Heming's father and eldest brother?"
Su Heming's mother died of illness several years ago, and there were only three of them in the family. According to Su Heming, the biggest regret of her mother before she died was that she didn't see them get married and have children.
"Yes,"
Lu Jiaxin was not surprised. Su Heming had said before that his father and eldest brother went to Hong Kong City, and now it seemed that the two people had returned from Hong Kong: "Do they know you?"
Gu Wenfeng nodded and said, "I once went to the leader's house and met them, but they probably didn't have any impression of me, so I didn't say hello just now. Miss Lu, the two of them should have come from there."
Lu Jiaxin heard that he had something to say, and she shook her head and said, "Brother Gu, I can't rely on others for everything, and favors are used less and less."
There are many people who know the goods, and there are even more people with vision. It is easy for her to sell this painting at a high price. She wants to find a buyer with a solid foundation.
Gu Wenfeng felt that she was sometimes too smart to be a 15-year-old child, and couldn't help but ask, "Who taught you all this?"
"My mother taught me. I didn't understand it when I was young, but later when I was trying to make a living in the ancient capital, I suddenly woke up and did what my mother said and got better and better."
Gu Wenfeng was silent. According to the information he had inquired, Lu's mother was a smooth and generous person. Lu Hongjun's later career was so smooth, and she had half the credit. It's a pity that she died early, leaving her daughter to be rubbed by others.
Lu Jiaxin asked, "What are you thinking about? Let's go eat."
This hotel has many restaurants, 30 in total, big and small, with both Chinese and Western food. You can find whatever you want. Lu Jiaxin went to the Cantonese restaurant, where the Cantonese food was very authentic and she liked it very much.
