Qiao Mei requested curiously, “Is it gold?”
“No, no! Guess once more!” Li Gui mentioned excitedly.
Qiao Mei thought actually laborious about it however actually couldn’t work out what Li Gui was as much as. Seeing that Qiao Mei was at a loss, Li Gui rapidly took out the chocolate from her breast pocket.
Nevertheless, the chocolate was in a very completely different state from when she obtained it. It was delicate to the contact and black liquid saved flowing out from the gaps within the corners. Li Gui was certain that she noticed a complete piece of chocolate earlier!
“What! What is going on on! That lady lied to me!” Li Gui was so anxious that she nearly cried.
Qiao Mei rapidly went to the kitchen to get a bowl and put the melted chocolate in it. Li Gui would positively really feel very unhappy if she simply threw it away.
“It is tremendous, it is tremendous. The chocolate melted. It’s going to be tremendous after we refreeze it,” Qiao Mei mentioned comfortingly.
“It was nonetheless in good situation after I obtained it! Oh my, what a pity!” Li Gui mentioned sadly as she regarded on the chocolate within the bowl.
Qiao Mei took the chocolate to the kitchen and poured it into the pot to make popcorn. Quickly, a pot of aromatic chocolate cream popcorn was prepared.
All the courtyard was crammed with the sturdy scent of chocolate. Qiao Mei known as out to the kids to check out the brand new product she had developed.
“Elder sister! What’s this! I’ve by no means eaten it earlier than!” Zhang Miao requested curiously as she regarded on the black popcorn in her hand.
“That is chocolate. Mother introduced it again for all of you. That is one thing that is particularly tough to get!” Qiao Mei mentioned.
Li Gui was nonetheless brooding over this matter. If not for the truth that she was so clueless, the kids would have been in a position to style chocolate. Qiao Mei might inform that Li Gui was feeling down and introduced an enormous basin of chocolate popcorn to her.
“Mother, look, it is chocolate-flavored!” Qiao Mei smiled and put a chunk of popcorn in Li Gui’s mouth.
Li Gui smiled and ate it. It was her first time consuming chocolate and he or she felt that the style was actually unusual. It tasted completely different from the sweets she often ate.
“Scrumptious! That is actually scrumptious!” Li Gui mentioned.
“This factor cannot stand up to warmth as it’s totally delicate. However we are able to nonetheless style the chocolate now,” Qiao Mei mentioned.
The chocolate offered available on the market have been all from abroad and even then, it was uncommon to see imported chocolate. The standard of the soil of their nation was unable to help the cultivation of such uncooked supplies, so the value of chocolate was costlier than different foodstuffs.
Nevertheless, for a household just like the Xia household, nothing was an issue.
The subsequent day, it was not Outdated Madam Fan who got here to trigger hassle for Qiao Mei. As a substitute, the one that got here was the one she least wished to see.
It had been nearly half a month since Qiao Mei got here to the capital. On this half a month, He Ning couldn’t discover a appropriate cause to go to Qiao Mei.
“Say, do you assume Qiao Mei wants cash now?” He Ning checked out Huo Gao and requested.
Huo Gao lowered his head helplessly. As a substitute of claiming that Qiao Mei was in need of cash, it will be extra acceptable to say that it was He Ning who had a craving. He have to be occupied with going to Qiao Mei’s place to freeload a meal once more.
“Did not we give her some huge cash the final time? How a lot can a lady spend?” Huo Gao mentioned.
He Ning shook his head. He didn’t assume so. Just lately, his spies close to Qiao Mei’s home had returned and informed him loads of issues, together with the dispute between Qiao Mei and Outdated Madam Fan and the truth that Qiao Mei had purchased many properties.
Though He Ning didn’t know why Qiao Mei wished to purchase so many homes, his instinct informed him that Qiao Mei would positively be renovating these homes quickly. The cash he despatched over was solely sufficient for Qiao Mei to purchase so many homes. If she wished to renovate them, she positively didn’t come up with the money for.
“I do not assume she has sufficient cash. Go and get 100,000 {dollars} out of our firm’s account and we’ll go to Qiao Mei’s home to pay her,” He Ning mentioned.
“100,000! I am not going! If you need it, go by yourself!” Huo Gao mentioned angrily.
At present, the He household’s companies have been all managed by He Wei and his son, He Li. Though it was not as affluent as when He Guo was round, it was nonetheless worthwhile.
The He household had solely simply resolved the household’s disaster when He Ning took 150,000 {dollars}, and now he wished to go and take one other 100,000 {dollars}. There was not a lot cash left within the firm’s account. If he went to search for He Wei once more, he was afraid that He Wei would use an enormous follow beat him out the door.
