"Your craftsmanship is really good," Yuan Zhou praised.
"It's nothing. It's just a bottle cap. The material is very simple." The old man smiled.
"The more fragmented and the smaller the item, the more effort it takes," Yuan Zhou said.
The old man smiled and said, "Besides accompanying my wife every day, I have nothing else to do."
"At least I can't make it," Yuan Zhou said seriously.
"That's different. Boss Yuan, you do big things. You're even on the news. It's normal that you can't do something like this." The old man shook his head.
"Thank you. I really like this gift." Yuan Zhou did not say much. At least, he kept the box seriously.
It was not difficult to praise others, but many people were not willing to do it.
"Why don't you stay for dinner?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"No, it's okay. I still have to go back." The old man quickly waved his hand and refused.
The old man knew from the news that Yuan Zhou was very powerful now. How could he waste his time to entertain him? The old man refused without thinking.
"You can leave after dinner," Yuan Zhou said.
"No, no." The old man waved his hand and retreated.
"Wait, please," Yuan Zhou said.
"I still have to go home. Boss Yuan, I wish you a prosperous business." The old man turned around and walked out of the shop.
The old man's speed was really fast. When Yuan Zhou opened the partition and walked to the door, he could only see the old man's hurried back.
At this time, Yuan Zhou was still holding the bottle cap doll in his hand.
"Thank you," Yuan Zhou said to the old man's back.
It was not until the old man left that Yuan Zhou could no longer see that Yuan Zhou turned around and returned to the shop.
Yuan Zhou understood now. The old man must have come all the way from Shanghai to give him this doll to congratulate him.
Back in the shop, Yuan Zhou could not help but open the box again and look at the doll.
Upon closer inspection, one could see that the dolls were glued together with glass glue. Every bottle cap came from a different bottle, and because of the splicing, some of the bottle caps were even cut into small pieces.
Whether it was the face of the puppet or the spoon or the kitchen knife in its hand, they were all very realistic.
"Very nice," Yuan Zhou praised. Then, he carefully closed the box and carried it upstairs with both hands.
Because he was holding the box with both hands, Yuan Zhou turned sideways and opened the door to his room. He then walked to the shelf and carefully placed the box on a high place where it was hard to reach.
The cardboard box was placed next to the little gifts that the old man had given him in the past. It looked very harmonious.
Now, there were many things on the shelf in Yuan Zhou's room. Some were placed here by the customers, and some were specially given by the customers to Yuan Zhou.
"Maybe one day I'll need to find a bigger place to set it up, or buy a house," Yuan Zhou muttered to himself.
While saying that, Yuan Zhou subconsciously touched the Blessing of Peace that the old lady had asked for.
Ever since the old lady gave the Blessing of Peace to Yuan Zhou, Yuan Zhou had hung it on his body seriously and had never taken it off.
Of course, the Blessing of Peace could be hung on one's inner clothes. Therefore, no one had seen it before. However, Yin Ya knew about it.
After all, Yuan Zhou had brought Yin Ya to see the old lady.
While Yuan Zhou was reading the books on cooking skills after he finished browsing the shelves, Wu Hai was being led around Taoxi Road by Zheng Jiawei. It was rare for him to be dressed neatly in a formal manner.
Of course, Zhou Xi, who was following behind Wuhai, was also there.
"Little Hai, that's a good idea. If you open an art gallery here, those people won't bother you anymore." Zheng Jiawei walked on tiptoe and led the way.
"I've found three places. Now, it depends on which one you want," Zheng Jiawei said while walking.
"You decide." Wuhai waved his hand indifferently.
"That won't do. This is your art gallery. You have to be satisfied with it." Zheng Jiawei shook his head and continued, "Lin Lin said she is satisfied with all three places."
"What does it have to do with that violent woman?" Wuhai said immediately.
"Lin Lin said it's a big deal and she has a part to play. I thought it was reasonable, so I asked her for her opinion. Little Hai, don't be angry. Lin Lin cares about you," said Zheng Jiawei.
"She threw me when she came back because she cared about me." Wuhai was extremely resentful. He even felt his back hurt when he said that.
After all, he had a sister who would throw him over her shoulder if she didn't like him. To Wuhai, this was a normal physiological reaction.
"Little Hai, who asked you to always not eat?" Zheng Jiawei looked at Wuhai and complained.
"You can't blame me. Compass doesn't open the door," said Wuhai confidently.
"Little Hai, you have to take care of Lin Lin and me. Take care of your body. You can't be hospitalized on IV drips like before. You still have to take care of your stomach," said Zheng Jiawei.
"Got it. I haven't been on IV drips for two years," said Wuhai, waving his hand.
"Speaking of which, I have an appointment with a doctor for a physical examination. Little Hai, you can go this time," said Zheng Jiawei immediately.
Wuhai frowned. He stroked his mustache and was about to refuse when Zheng Jiawei continued, "Lin Lin said she will come back this time for a physical examination."
"…" Wuhai was speechless.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. Although Wuhai could make Zheng Jiawei cry, Wu Lin was different. She could beat Wuhai until he cried. Therefore, there seemed to be no way to resist the physical examination.
Fortunately, as a fan of Wuhai, Zhou Xi broke the atmosphere. He said, "Brother Jiawei, we seem to be very far from Taoxi Road. We have been walking for 15 minutes."
"Yeah, we will be there in two minutes. It's on the first floor of the building in front." Zheng Jiawei nodded and pointed to the first floor of the opposite building.
Zhou Xi turned his head and looked at Taoxi Road in the distance. Then, he looked at the distance of the art gallery and couldn't help but say, "Why is it so far from Taoxi Road?"
"The places you liked in front have all been rented out. None of them are left," said Zheng Jiawei.
"So fast?" Zhou Xi was surprised.
"Not so fast. The current Boss Yuan is like a piece of golden cake. Everyone wants to get close to him." Zheng Jiawei nodded.
"Look over there. This is the Chengdu headquarters of the electronics company that just moved here," said Zheng Jiawei as he pointed to the big building over there.
"Over there is the Chengdu headquarters of the wholesale daily necessities. There are even more companies that are moving here," said Zheng Jiawei as he pointed to several places.
"Why are there so many companies moving here all of a sudden?" asked Zhou Xi curiously.
"Naturally, it's because of Boss Yuan," said Zheng Jiawei naturally.
"Those companies mentioned by Mr. Wu have all participated in Boss Yuan's personal cooking exhibition," said Zheng Jiawei.
"Isn't that too exaggerated? They moved their companies here just for food?" Zhou Xi said in surprise.
"What's so strange about that? Firstly, it's for food. Secondly, it's naturally for more business. Just look at the companies here and you will know," said Zheng Jiawei softly.
"I see," said Zhou Xi with a nod.
While saying that, Zhou Xi suddenly remembered that the number one painter of the younger generation of China, who was going to open an art gallery just for food, was Wuhai.
Now, Zhou Xi could understand those bosses better.
