Chapter 62 Pick-up
After noon, Cai Zhiliang had a hasty lunch and drove to the airport.
When we arrived at the airport, it was only half past one, and there was still an hour and a half before the three o'clock flight. There are no mobile phones to play with these days, so I can only wander around in boredom.
"Sir, do you need a Walkman?"
Cai Zhiliang waved his hand and said, "No need."
"Sir, this is the new Walkman launched by Sony this year. It uses solar charging and only needs to be exposed to the sun for 4 hours to be fully charged..." The Walkman was in the hands of a salesman who persisted.
Cai Zhiliang said as he walked: "I really don't need it."
From the appearance of the Walkman until June this year, Sony has sold a total of 20 million units, and the word "walkman" has also been included in the Oxford English Dictionary.
"Sir, you can give it to your girlfriend. I also have a Walkman with a remote control..." The salesman obviously noticed the brand in Cai Zhiliang's hand.
Cai Zhiliang thought it right, he didn't care, maybe girls like it. Then he stopped and asked: "How much is it?"
The salesman was overjoyed and immediately opened his backpack and asked: "Which one do you like?"
Cai Zhiliang then picked a style that he thought was good and asked, "How much does this one cost?"
The salesman said: "This is the latest model, with remote control, 1980 yuan."
Cai Zhiliang put the Walkman directly back into his backpack, turned around and left.
"Sir, I haven't finished talking yet. We are doing an event today. This is a 15% discount and we will give you a box of cassettes for free, sir..." The salesman caught up again.
After Cai Zhiliang thought about the price, he said a price that he thought was ideal, and said: "1,600 Hong Kong dollars."
The salesman gritted his teeth, as if in pain, and said: "Deal."
After the transaction was completed, Cai Zhiliang continued to wander around, then went directly to the parking lot and squinted in the car for a while.
At 3 o'clock sharp, Cai Zhiliang appeared at the international flight exit on time, holding a sign with the name "Fang Jingyao" on it and looking at the crowds coming and going at the exit.
Raising the sign was a laborious task. After waiting for a long time, Fang Jingyao did not come out. Cai Zhiliang changed his arm and continued to wait.
Cai Zhiliang just listened to the radio and found that Fang Jingyao's flight was not delayed, but twenty minutes had passed and he still had not received anyone.
Cai Zhiliang couldn't help but wonder, must he have missed it? Although Big Brother has appeared these days, it is not a regular product after all. He wanted to call Fang Jianlin and ask, but he was worried about missing it.
When he was struggling, he suddenly felt someone tapping his shoulder. When Cai Zhiliang looked back, he found that it was a beautiful girl who was very unfamiliar. He thought he had recognized the wrong person. Then he waved the sign in his hand, leaned forward, and stared at the airport exit.
.
After a few seconds, Cai Zhiliang reacted, turned around, pointed to the sign in his hand, and asked, "Is that you?"
Fang Jingyao wore a light green casual T-shirt and a pair of white pencil trousers. She was youthful and beautiful, which highlighted her slender figure. With her oval face, the first impression that gave Cai Zhiliang was her bright eyes.
Sure enough, as Cai Minghe said, Cai Zhiliang can rest assured that he is in charge.
Fang Jingyao looked at Cai Zhiliang's series of actions, nodded with a smile, and asked, "Are you the Mr. Cai my father said?"
"I'm Cai Zhiliang, just call me A-Liang. Don't call me Mr., as if I'm too old." Cai Zhiliang looked at the smiling Fang Jingyao, feeling like a beautiful woman with a jade-like face.
"Okay." Fang Jingyao agreed casually.
"Let me carry it." Cai Zhiliang took the suitcase from Fang Jingyao's hand and led Fang Jingyao to the parking lot.
"This brand is very beautiful." Fang Jingyao took a pick-up sign with her name on it and looked at it carefully.
"In order to welcome you, I spent a whole day drawing it out one stroke at a time." Cai Zhiliang ordered the newspaper company to make the pick-up sign yesterday.
Fang Jingyao glanced sideways at Cai Zhiliang, a little suspicious: "Really, let me see your art some other time."
Cai Zhiliang felt a little guilty and said, "Let's wait until we have time later. What major did you study in the UK?"
Fang Jingyao said: "Didn't my father tell you?"
"I just met Uncle Fang the day before yesterday, and I didn't even have time to ask anything. Can you believe it? Together with my third uncle, we talked about the stock market for a long time." Cai Zhiliang complained.
Fang Jingyao said: "I studied graphic design. Is the stock market in Hong Kong very popular recently? When I left at the beginning of the year, the Hang Seng Index was still falling."
Cai Zhiliang took a look at the pick-up sign that Fang Jingyao used as a fan, and felt like he was being seen through. If he had known that she was studying graphic design, he would not have bragged like this.
Fortunately, she mentioned the stock market, and Cai Zhiliang said: "It has been rising recently and has exceeded 1900 points. If you want to make a fortune, investing in the stock market is definitely a good idea."
While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the spot where Cai Zhiliang parked his car.
Cai Zhiliang opened the trunk and put Fang Jingyao's suitcase in. When he was about to close the trunk, Fang Jingyao pointed to the rice wine in the corner and asked, "Is this rice wine?"
Cai Zhiliang thought that Fang Jianlin liked rice wine, and it was not surprising that Fang Jingyao could tell the difference. He nodded and said, "It's for Uncle Fang. I heard that Uncle Fang likes to drink rice wine."
"Oops..." Fang Jingyao shouted.
"What's wrong?" Cai Zhiliang looked at Fang Jingyao.
Fang Jingyao asked: "When you came, did you go to my house?"
Cai Zhiliang shook his head, not understanding what it meant, and said, "No, I came directly from home."
Fang Jingyao fastened her seat belt and said, "The gifts I brought to my brother and my father are the same. It seems I only bought one."
Cai Zhiliang said: "Why don't I give you that bottle of rice wine, just say you bought it."
"How can that be done?" Fang Jingyao said with a smile: "I am coming back from England, so I can't bring a bottle of rice wine, a specialty of China."
This will not be a problem twenty years later. Everywhere you go, it will be made in China.
Cai Zhiliang thought about it and suggested: "Why don't you find a phone booth first, call your home, tell me that you met me, and ask if your brother is at home. At this moment, your father should be waiting for you at home.
If it doesn’t work, we’ll pass by the mall and go in to have a look.”
Fang Jingyao said: "That's all we have to do."
After such a long flight, I was really tired and didn’t want to go to the mall again.
Cai Zhiliang started the car and left the airport. Seeing Fang Jingyao looking downcast, he said, "I do have a gift made by RB, but it's not suitable for Uncle Fang."
"What gift?" Fang Jingyao asked.
Cai Zhiliang held the steering wheel with one hand and took out the Walkman he bought at the airport with the other hand and handed it to Fang Jingyao.
"A Walkman, my dad really likes music." After Fang Jingyao finished speaking, she felt a little abrupt. After all, Cai Zhiliang bought it.
Cai Zhiliang advised: "Open it and take a look before commenting."
Fang Jingyao immediately opened the package, took out the Walkman, took a look, and asked with a smile: "Why is it pink?"
Cai Zhiliang also laughed and said: "So it's not suitable for Uncle Fang."
Fang Jingyao understood immediately after thinking about it, this was originally given to her, but the key is that she doesn't like pink either.
Cai Zhiliang stopped the car on the side of the road, pointed to the phone booth on the side of the road, and said, "Why don't you call home first to report that you are safe."
"Yeah." Fang Jingyao then got out of the car and walked into the phone booth.
When she came back, Fang Jingyao had a smile on her face and no longer worried about gains and losses.
Cai Zhiliang asked tentatively: "Is your eldest brother not at home?"
Fang Jingyao rubbed her cheeks, feeling a little embarrassed, and said, "My eldest brother has gone to Macau and is not in Hong Kong City."
"That's good." Cai Zhiliang also breathed a sigh of relief.
