The next morning.

Shi Yunnan and others went to visit a famous local kiln.

It was the first time that the little goldfish came to such a place. He grabbed the corner of Shi Yunnan's clothes with one hand, and couldn't help but point here and there with the other.

"Wow, little uncle, look, puppy hook!"

The little goldfish stopped in front of a boxy table top full of various small porcelain sculptures.

The closest to him is a white ceramic puppy, with its small nose and eyes vividly depicted.

The little goldfish endured it, and then looked at Shi Yunnan and Luo Lingsheng eagerly, "Uncle, can I pick it up and take a look?"

Hearing this, the kiln owner who accompanied him on the tour couldn't help but leaned forward and smiled, "This kid is polite, come here, let's play with you."

With that said, he picked up the object and handed it to the little goldfish.

The little goldfish took it with both hands excitedly, and bowed very politely, "Thank you uncle!"

Shi Yunnan rubbed his head and said to the boss, "These animal ceramic sculptures are quite realistic."

"It's all for the apprentices in the factory to practice, and it's not worth a lot of money." The boss introduced him.

Compared with colored porcelain, which is known as an "unprecedented masterpiece" in Jingshi, the porcelain produced in Dehua County is more inclined to shape, among which the small porcelain of Buddha statues is delicately and vividly shaped.

"These ceramics can't be sold at high prices in China. Even with the promotional packaging, they are gadgets that cost more than ten yuan. No matter how expensive they are, no one is willing to buy them."

Luo Lingsheng remembered something, "But I remember that this type of porcelain sculpture is very popular abroad, and the price is generally higher."

Shi Yunnan met Luo Lingsheng's gaze and instantly understood what his lover wanted to express.

He picked up his mobile phone, logged into the foreign shopping website that he used to use in the past, and only found out after comparison——

Similar animal ceramic sculptures can last no more than 20 times in China, but can be five or six times or even ten times higher in foreign countries.

It's just that the ceramics are fragile, the customs freight time is long, and the foreign ceramic manufacturers and markets are scattered, so it has not been highly expanded.

But if a complete system is formed, the space profit in it is huge.

"Boss, in addition to these animal sculptures, can you also do other portraits?"

"Of course."

Seeing that they were all Chinese, the boss couldn't help showing off in a low voice, "To tell you the truth, our craftsmanship is all handed down from our ancestors, and it's really not comparable to foreign ceramic manufacturers."

Otherwise, how could China be famous for its "porcelain".

Shi Yunan's on-the-spot inspection was originally planned to cooperate to produce a batch of porcelain rings and beads, so that the designers in the studio can combine designs and sell them online in the future.

Now, when he heard the words of the kiln owner, he suddenly had a subtle and bold idea.

Luo Lingsheng read his mind tacitly, "Do you want to go foreign trade? It's not that simple."

Shi Yunnan nodded, "I know, so I'm still thinking about it."

If it was so easy to make money in large quantities, someone would have tried it as early as 800 years ago. However, if you decide to do it in the future, you must persuade people who are familiar with overseas markets to buy shares and cooperate.

Shi Yunnan temporarily pressed this consideration to the bottom of his heart, and continued the current inspection task. After walking down for most of the day, he has a certain understanding of several large factories in the county.

lunch time.

"Yuan Rui, in addition to the regular white porcelain bracelets and beads we expect to produce, we can actually find skilled masters and discuss with them for long-term private order cooperation."

"Porcelain molding according to specific design requirements, I think..."

Shi Yunnan was only halfway through when he realized that Yuan Rui was staring at the tea on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Yuan Rui?"

"Yuan Rui."

Shi Yunnan even shouted twice, but the other party didn't respond.

The little goldfish who was cooking rice couldn't stand it anymore, so he patted Yuan Rui with his hand, "Brother Yuan Rui, my uncle called you!"

Yuan Rui suddenly returned to his senses, "Ah? What, what's wrong?"

Shi Yunnan looked at his friend with some floating eyes, and sighed, "What's the matter with you today? It seems that you have been absent-minded."

"no."

Yuan Rui drank the cold tea in front of him and explained casually, "I admit to the bed, I didn't sleep well last night.

"What did you just say? I must be listening carefully now."

Seeing the spirit of his friend's forced pretense, Shi Yunnan said helplessly, "I'll let you eat well. The more you look during this time, the more you feel that you are much thinner than when you first met."

Yuan Rui believed his friend's concern and smiled, "I'll go to the bathroom, you guys eat first."

After Yuan Rui left, Luo Lingsheng, who had been silent all along, spoke up, "Young Master Yuan is much more negative than yesterday."

"Well, 'didn't sleep well' is just his excuse. We lived in the same room in Jingshi before. Can I know his sleep quality?"

Since the establishment of the studio, Yuan Rui has completely lost his playfulness in the past. He can't wait to split two days a day to use it for the development of the studio. When he is mentally and physically tired, he will sleep soundly when he touches the bed.

Shi Yunnan guessed something while he was talking, and shook his head, "He is suffering from a heart disease, so he has to tie the bell to untie the bell."

Lu Zhaoan didn't go down for a day, and Yuan Rui's heart would always have a regretful knot of "died without a problem".

It's a pity to remember.

Lu Zhaoan is a first-class person in terms of company management and jade carving. Shi Yunan had also looked forward to the design cooperation with Lu Zhaoan before.

Lu Zhaoan's sudden disappearance was a pity even for an outsider who had only met him a few times, let alone Yuan Rui who grew up together.

Shi Yunnan thought for a while, only to realize that Luo Lingsheng was silent. He moved his gaze and noticed that his lover's expression had been slightly jealous at some point.

All right, what's wrong?

Could it be that the lover still has the ability to read minds, and heard that he was just talking about Lu Zhaoan in his heart?

Shi Yunnan leaned closer and asked, "Why are you so sour?"

Luo Lingsheng met his lover's gaze and was not in a hurry to speak.

Suddenly, the little goldfish who seemed to be eating but was actually paying attention to the every move of the two uncles said earnestly, "Little uncle! Are you sleeping on the same bed as brother Yuan Rui?"

Yuan Rui's seniority in his mouth has not changed.

Luo Lingsheng took a sip of tea and added calmly, "Don't say it's a bed, a room is not suitable."

Shi Yunnan's eyes moved back and forth, and at the same time he was helpless and was almost amused——

what is this?

This uncle and nephew are one big and one small, are they the proper Luo family vinegar essence?

Yuan Meng, who was opposite, glanced at the time, and said cautiously, "Patriarch."

"Ok?"

Luo Lingsheng raised his eyes.

Yuan Meng was a little embarrassed, "I said yesterday..."

This was just a start, and Luo Lingsheng reacted, "Go in the afternoon, so that your brother and sister-in-law don't have to be too grand, just take Jinyu to try something new."

Yuan Meng's face brightened when he heard Luo Lingsheng's reply.

Shi Yunnan didn't know why, "Where are you going?"

"Mr. Shi, Mengmeng's hometown is in a township on the edge of Dehua County. In the past two years, the policies and family conditions have become better. His brother-in-law and sister-in-law have opened a farmhouse..."

Qin Jian spoke out to help explain.

Yuan Meng hadn't been home for the Chinese New Year in the past three years, so he finally came back. Naturally, he couldn't worry about his own brother, so he took the initiative to contact him.

"Mengmeng's eldest brother knew that he was coming back, and wanted to set up a table of authentic farmhouse entertainment to invite the owner to dinner..."

Qin Jian looked at Luo Lingsheng and deliberately paused for a few seconds.

In fact, they all knew that with Luo Lingsheng's identity and status, what kind of delicacies from the mountains and seas could not be eaten? There is no need to go for such a table of farmhouse fun.

Thinking of this, the little goldfish raised his hand excitedly, "Uncle Yuan said, there are chickens and ducks, and there is a small river where you can fish and catch shrimps! I want to go!"

"Since I brought Jinyu out to play, I simply obeyed his wishes."

Under the influence of Shi Yunnan, Luo Lingsheng no longer had the stern appearance of a big parent, and he was willing to give the child the greatest freedom according to his thoughts.

Shi Yunnan said with a smile, "Yes."

Little Goldfish is used to living in the prosperous Dijing, and occasionally takes him to learn about the landscapes and customs of other places. It is a good thing to study close to nature.

As soon as everyone finished discussing this matter, Yuan Rui, who was out, walked back.

Shi Yunnan secretly observed his friend's mood and made arrangements, "Let's eat more? Let's go to the B&B later to pack up, and go back to the city after we finish the farmhouse in the evening?"

Yuan Meng is very familiar with this area, "I'll just drive tonight, it won't be too late."

"good."

After half an hour.

Everyone who settled for lunch planned to walk back to the B&B.

"Compared to last night, the daytime is indeed much more lively." Yuan Rui let out a sigh, and seemed to have come out of that state of 'unsettled'.

One of the main roads leading to the homestay happens to be the popular local ceramic market, with a dazzling array of handicrafts on both sides, and there are many locals and tourists coming and going.

Perhaps it was because Luo Lingsheng was in a wheelchair, and from time to time there would be inquiring eyes.

Shi Yunnan was more sensitive than Luo Lingsheng, and bent over to ask, "Let's go faster?"

Luo Lingsheng squeezed his lover's fingertips, not feeling embarrassed at all, "It's okay, I've long been used to looking at it like this, Jin Yu is happy, so let's go slowly."

For him, as long as Shi Yunnan is with him, it doesn't matter how others look at him.

Luo Lingsheng mentioned, "Don't you like it too? See if you can find some gadgets to take home."

Shi Yunnan smiled, "Okay."

The two were talking, and Yuan Rui, who was playing with the little goldfish in front of him, was suddenly startled, "...Senior brother?"

The moment he landed in surprise, he pulled his legs and ran out.

"Yuan Rui!" Shi Yunnan caught the flustered whisper and immediately realized that something was wrong.

He glanced at Luo Lingsheng, and after the latter gave a tacit response, he quickly chased after him.

Shi Yunnan saw Yuan Rui go around to the back of one of the stalls, and before he could catch up, he heard an emergency braking sound.

--boom!

The stall owners on the left all looked back and looked shocked.

Shi Yunnan froze suddenly, and immediately pushed aside the crowd to see the situation.

On the trail behind the booth, Yuan Rui was hit a few meters away by a heavy motorcycle and did not move. In the depths of the alley he was facing, there was indeed a very familiar back.

Shi Yunnan frowned and roared, "Lu Zhaoan! Are you really going to leave Yuan Rui alone?"

As soon as the voice fell, Yuan Rui, who fell to the ground not far away, stumbled and got up.

A bloodstain was smeared on his forehead, the blood slid down his cheeks, and the knees of his clothes and trousers were scratched by the cement floor, all of which were piercing red.

"Yuan Rui."

Shi Yunan ran over anxiously.

The motorcycle driver who caused the accident was also frightened. "Little boy, are you all right? I'll send you to the hospital now?"

"……Do not touch me."

Yuan Rui was powerless to push the other party's support away, and wiped the itchy blood on the side of his face indiscriminately. He forced a smile at Shi Yunan, "I'm fine, is he, is he gone?"

The last four words clearly trembled.

Yuan Rui didn't intend to get the answer from Shi Yunnan's mouth, and limped around him to chase someone.

Before he could take two steps out, Lu Zhaoan rushed over with an anxious face. He looked at Yuan Rui, who had suffered countless scratches, and trembled unsteadily, "...I'll take you to the hospital."

Yuan Rui clenched Lu Zhao'an's hand tightly, his eyes turned red for no reason, the unbearable pain forced his knees to soften, and habitually fell into the other's arms.

"..."

Lu Zhaoan's breathing suddenly froze, and he was so panicked that he didn't even know where to put his hands.

Yuan Rui, who couldn't get a response from support, clenched his hand tightly, but his body still had a tendency to slide down.

Shi Yunnan quickly grabbed his friend and looked at Lu Zhaoan, who was rarely in control, "Lu Zhaoan, are you afraid that you will hurt him when you hold him? Hurry up and take him to the hospital!"

"Patriarch, Mr. Shi and the others are here."

Luo Lingsheng and others searched for the movement.

Shi Yunnan promptly ordered, "Lu Zhao'an, take Yuan Rui to the hospital. The bump on his forehead must be dealt with. Qin Jian, help you drive."

The motorcycle driver who caused the accident had a good conscience, and said quickly, "Add, add me! I hit the person, and I will definitely be responsible!"

Lu Zhaoan carefully avoided Yuan Rui's wound and hugged him horizontally, "Xiao Rui, don't be afraid of the pain, my brother is here."

"..."

Yuan Rui took a low breath and said nothing.

Half a minute later, Lu Zhaoan hurriedly left with Yuan Rui in his arms.

Shi Yunnan stood on the spot and watched them leave without showing any signs of catching up.

Seeing this, Luo Lingsheng said, "Aren't you going to have a look?"

"Don't follow."

Although Shi Yunnan was worried about his friend, he knew that now was the time to solve it, "Lu Zhaoan will not leave Yuan Rui alone."

"Yuan Meng, wait and call Qin Jian. If Yuan Rui's situation is serious, contact us as soon as possible. If there is no serious situation, let him "lose" people and leave it alone."

Yuan Meng nodded, "Okay."

The little goldfish pulled La Shi Yunan's finger and cried a little, "Little uncle, brother Yuan Rui is bleeding a lot."

Shi Yunnan picked up the little goldfish and coaxed him, "Don't be afraid, let's go back to the hotel and wait for news. There's a doctor, it's alright."

"Ok."

Shi Yunnan lost his mind to go to the market, and simply went back to the homestay to wait for news.

It wasn't until an hour later that Qin Jian called to inform him of the situation, and Shi Yunnan's hanging heart finally fell.

"How is Yuan Rui?"

"The wound was briefly treated at the county hospital, but Lu Zhaoan was worried. He was afraid that Yuan Rui would still be injured, so he planned to drive him to the central hospital for observation for a few more days."

Shi Yunan took a sip of water, "I'll ask Qin Jian to come back and gather with us. For the remaining three or four days, I'll just go up and discuss materials with the porcelain kiln factory."

In the past, Yuan Rui was busy, but now there is a sudden situation, Shi Yunnan, as a partner, will naturally take his place.

"By the way, brother Yuan Meng's farmhouse is still the same as usual?"

"In case we prepare a table of dishes and we don't change our minds temporarily, it will be a waste of the big brother's heart."

Shi Yunnan had heard Qin Jian mention it before—eldest brother Yuan Meng is a very simple and honest person, the other party regarded Luo Lingsheng as Yuan Meng's kind boss, and he must have started to prepare after receiving the call.

Yuan Meng, who was standing on the side, was moved when he heard this, "Patriarch, Mr. Shi, it's okay."

Luo Lingsheng obeyed Shi Yunnan's arrangement, "Go, it's enough to stay for an hour or two. We will also be staying in a hotel in the city tonight, so Qin Jian will come to meet us directly later."

"good."

...

Yuan Meng's hometown is in Daming Township, which is northwest of Dehua Town. It was just right on the way back to the hotel in the city, and it took less than half an hour to drive there.

The little goldfish sat in the child safety seat, leaning on the side of the car window to observe, "Little uncle, these green seedlings will turn into rice, right?"

Outside the window is the inconspicuous terrace layout, and the seedlings in the fields are very lush.

Shi Yunnan replied with a smile, "Yes, are you hungry?"

"No, I want to see chickens and ducks." The little goldfish's eyes were bright, and he was full of expectations for the next thing.

Soon, Yuan Meng parked his car in front of a two-story farmhouse. His calm eyes showed the joy of returning home, "Patriarch, Mr. Shi, this is it!"

The bungalow was built three years ago.

Taking advantage of the natural scenery in their villages, they have established new scenic spots with the support of relevant local departments.

Every weekend, people from surrounding towns and urban areas come to visit. Yuan Meng's brother and sister-in-law have lived a fairly stable life by relying on the farmhouse for the past two years.

After Shi Yunnan got out of the car and took a deep breath, he couldn't help but sigh, "The air in this village is really different."

Returning to the place he was most familiar with since childhood, Yuan Meng was obviously more relaxed than usual, "Mr. Shi, the air at the top of the back mountain is actually the best."

Before Yu Yin landed, a dark-looking man hurriedly greeted him.

Just looking at her appearance, she is somewhat similar to Yuan Meng.

"Big brother."

Yuan Meng approached immediately, and then introduced, "Patriarch, Mr. Shi, this is my eldest brother Yuan Wei."

Yuan Wei nodded awkwardly.

He had heard about Luo Lingsheng's power from his younger brother's mouth, and he was a little afraid of such a big man.

"Two bosses, I have packed out the best box in our house in Linhe. Can you go in and sit? Have some tea?"

"Dinner is ready. I'm afraid of the cold, so I didn't make it in advance. It's good for half or half an hour at most."

Seeing Yuan Wei's embarrassment, Shi Yunnan took the initiative to smile kindly, "Then I will trouble Big Brother Yuan. We are just the few people who don't eat much. You and sister-in-law can do whatever you want."

Yuan Wei didn't expect that the big boss from Dijing was so talkative, and was flattered, "No trouble, no trouble! Thanks to your care for Ah Meng's retirement in the past two years, he was able to find such a decent job."

Yuan Meng was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and urged, "Brother, shall we go first?"

"Eh, okay."

Since the little goldfish got off the car, his eyes were fixed on the little duck in the field.

He refused to move and looked at Luo Lingsheng, expecting to speak, "Uncle..."

Luo Ling said succinctly, "Go play."

Shi Yunnan smiled and explained, "Little goldfish, you are not allowed to go near the river, and you are not allowed to go to dangerous places, do you know?"

The little goldfish nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll watch it here, and I'll be back in a while."

He ran to a distance of half a meter from the field and stopped, observing with relish the flocks of ducklings inside.

Yuan Meng asked, "Patriarch, am I here to watch the young master?"

"It's okay, you should exercise." Luo Lingsheng never liked raising children to be squeamish.

"There are no cars in the village. I will let my son take care of this doll." Yuan Wei added.

The group entered the house as they walked.

In order to welcome Luo Lingsheng and Shi Yunnan, Yuan Wei diligently cleaned the house and outside, for fear that they would not feel comfortable.

After the two entered the box and took a rest, Yuan Meng took the initiative to go to the kitchen to help.

The seventeen-year-old niece saw Yuan Meng, who had not seen him for a long time, and immediately approached with a basket of vegetables, "Uncle."

Yuan Meng responded, and immediately felt strange, "Why aren't you at school today?"

My niece Yuan Juanjuan's school is in the county high school, and she will have to take the college entrance examination in a month.

Yuan Juanjuan's smile gradually disappeared, and she lowered her head and silently chose green vegetables, "My mother said that my grades could not be admitted to a good university, and it was a waste of money to study, so I would look for a job after the college entrance examination."

"..."

Yuan Meng frowned.

His sister-in-law is a fiery and caring personality, and has always loved his two sons more.

"Don't listen to your mother, you prepare well for the college entrance examination. If the tuition is not enough, uncle will give you a pad."

Yuan Meng did not have the conditions in his family back then, plus Yuan Wei, his elder brother, was married early and had to spend money everywhere.

Yuan Meng thought of this brotherly kindness and tried his best to get his nephews and nieces to study and go to school.

Yuan Juanjuan said in a low voice, "Uncle, my mother is rich, and she can support my younger brother's primary school in the market..."

Before the words were finished, a voice sounded behind him, "Yo, Yuan Meng is back? Your uncle and niece haven't seen each other for several years, how are you still so close?"

Yuan Meng turned sideways and met Chen Fang's gaze, "Sister-in-law."

After not seeing him for three or four years, the other party's face has become a lot rounder. It seems that it is exactly as Yuan Juanjuan said - he has a little savings in his hand, and his living conditions are not bad.

Chen Fang slapped the sunflower seeds in a deliberate tone, "You two brothers are honest and kind-hearted, and you have to invite the big boss to come to the house for dinner. For this small amount of money, when my family's money comes from a strong wind?"

Again the same language.

Ever since Chen Fang married Yuan Wei, she has been constantly criticizing Yuan Meng, her uncle.

Later, Yuan Meng, who was discharged from the army, saved some savings, and Chen Fang's endless picky turned into a bottomless money request.

Yuan Meng didn't want to worry about this kind of thing, "Sister-in-law, I will give you this money in private, don't tell them to my boss."

When Chen Fang heard this, she was satisfied.

She glanced at the closed box door, and saw her daughter who had no future, and suddenly had a greedy idea in her heart.

"Yuan Meng, sister-in-law begging you for something?" The words were a pleading, but the tone was quite natural.

"...What?" Yuan Meng was taken aback.

"Your niece will graduate from the college entrance examination in a month, and she won't be able to get into any good university with her stupid mind. Otherwise, would you ask your boss to arrange a job with food and housing for her in the Imperial Capital?"

Maybe, she still has a chance to find a rich son-in-law in the imperial capital in the future.

Yuan Juanjuan immediately rejected it, "Mom, what are you worrying about! How can I find a job in Beijing with such an education? I'm embarrassed to trouble others."

"Why not? Your uncle also has a high school degree. Isn't it a rich boss to get the salary? Does the boss send you that job and that salary? It can definitely be arranged."

Chen Fang spoke with confidence, and even thought it was natural for Luo Lingsheng to do this for them.

Yuan Meng's expression turned ugly. It was the first time he usually vetoed this sister-in-law, "I don't agree with this."

Chen Fang, who was rejected, was stunned and looked unhappy, "You..."

Yuan Meng continued to be stubborn, "First, don't bother my boss if you have nothing to do. They don't have time to worry about my subordinate's family affairs. Second, Juanjuan is going to college after the college entrance examination. What job is she looking for now? It will delay her future."

"Going to college? Is going to college useful?"

Chen Fang snorted, staring at Yuan Meng and pointing out, "Awei and I saved a few years ago for some people to go to high school, but in the end we didn't raise a white-eyed wolf."

"Being a bull and a horse for the rich, his own family refuses to help with a little help!"

After speaking, she went upstairs while cursing, as if she had encountered something extremely unpleasant.

Yuan Meng took care of the work he was doing.

As long as she can dispel Chen Fang's unrealistic thoughts and tell her not to disturb the owner and Mr. Shi, it doesn't matter if he offends the sister-in-law.

...

In the box, Shi Yunan admired the sunset with great interest.

The Yuan family's farmhouse is built along the river bank, and there is a large field across the river from the window, which makes people feel very comfortable.

Shi Yunnan had an inexplicable thought, and said to Luo Lingsheng, "No wonder so many people are used to living in big cities, and they want to live in these places when they are old."

Luo Lingsheng chuckled, "You like it too?"

"It's not bad. Occasionally, when you get tired of living in a big city, or you can't think of a design, you can rest in these places."

"If you like it, when you return to the imperial capital, I will ask someone to look for it in the outer suburbs?"

Shi Yunnan snorted, "Where can you find this kind of feeling in an inch of land and an inch of gold in the Imperial Capital?"

Luo Lingsheng said again, "Then go where you want to go, and I will accompany you."

Shi Yunnan sat back to Luo Lingsheng's side, leaned in and kissed, "Mr. Luo, I know you have too much money to spend. However, it's not too late to think about this issue when we are fifty or sixty years old."

Days are always going to pass day by day, and it's no use for them to worry for a second.

Shi Yunnan was rarely emotional, and leaned in to rub the tip of Luo Lingsheng's nose, "Anyway, no matter where I live in the future, it's good that you are the person by my side."

Luo Lingsheng was easily amused by his words, the smile on his lips just appeared, and the box door behind him was opened.

At the same time, a suppressed cry came, "Uncle."

Shi Yunnan and Luo Lingsheng turned around at the same time, only to be startled by the situation in front of them——

There was a swollen red envelope the size of a 'half fist' on the little goldfish's forehead, and it was faintly oozing blood. The originally white and tender face was now dirty, and even the clothes and trouser legs were covered with mud.

Shi Yunnan felt a pain in his heart, and quickly pulled his child into his arms, "Baby, where did you fall?"

Luo Lingsheng also frowned, and controlled the wheelchair to the side of the little goldfish. With sharp eyes, he noticed the exposed collar of the little nephew and the reddish marks on his neck, and instantly realized what—

"Jin Yu, tell your uncle, who bullied you? Where's the little necklace you've been wearing around your neck?"

The little goldfish, who was still crying, heard this, and burst into tears, aggrieved and sad.

"Uncle, they took away my necklace. Grandpa Qin said that it was left to me by my mother. I'm sorry..."
