Chapter 218: 0137 The Spring of the Cattle-Herding Class (Subscription Request)_2

Its positioning is roughly the same as another European fashion brand, ZARA.

The prices are also similar.

They are just ordinary clothes.

In a few years, they will enter some domestic shopping malls. Huang Kaiwen has bought them before, a bit cheaper than Jack Jones at that time.

The product design is not very attractive, and that logo limits the design of the clothing.

However, in Europe, business is just business.

All of Huang Kaiwen’s business endorsements are handled by the young mistress.

According to Huang Kaiwen’s market rate, endorsing a brand with little fame is more expensive than a well-known brand because the exposure they provide is different. Endorsing a big brand can get your photo in business districts and on public transport stations all over the world, which smaller brands can’t achieve.

"Forget it, I’ll talk to Barbara about this when I have time."

Knowing that talking to Huang Kaiwen would get him nowhere, Maldini changed the subject, "Chris, that kid, actually stole money at home, and I really don’t know what to do with him."

"I remember you also took money from home when you were a child."

Adriana said with a smile as she brought out some desserts.

Maldini was embarrassed and defended himself, "Only once, and then I got beaten, and never stole money from home again."

"It’s also the first time that Chris took money at home," Adriana said, "and he did it to buy Christmas gifts for friends. It’s not a bad thing."

"Damn it, I only took 500 Lira! That kid Chris took 200 euros from my wallet!" said Maldini, somewhat agitated.

The smallest denomination of paper bills in Italian Lira was 1000 Lira, 500 Lira was a coin, and in Maldini’s childhood, it was almost like 0.8 US dollars in value, which should have a strong purchasing power.

Upon hearing this,

Huang Kaiwen’s eyes lit up.

With a frown, Huang Kaiwen said, "200 euros is indeed not a small amount."

"See, Kevin thinks the same!" Maldini pointed at Huang Kaiwen excitedly.

"But Chris is still a child,"

Adriana said.

"He’s almost 10 years old. In my childhood, kids that age could already work to support themselves. In Sicily, some nine-year-olds were already working in quarries or as servants in people’s homes, while Chris is still stealing money from home."

Seeing Adriana unhappy,

Huang Kaiwen quickly tried to smooth things over, "Paul, talking about last century is pointless, times have changed. Those child laborers used to die young, and you don’t want Chris to end up like them, do you?"

Adriana nodded vigorously, "Exactly, that’s your son!"

"That’s exactly what I mean!"

Maldini argued.

Huang Kaiwen pulled them both to sit down next to him.

The feeling that this scene was all too familiar annoyed him; damn it, off the field he still had to play the peacemaker, this 6 million euro salary certainly wasn’t earned for nothing.

"It’s right for Adriana to be compassionate towards the child, after all, times have changed."

Seeing Maldini’s unhappy expression, Huang Kaiwen held down Maldini’s arm and continued, "But Paul is not wrong either. In our country, there’s a saying ’who steals a needle when young will steal gold when grown,’ and there are many similar proverbs, summarized by the experiences of the ancients, indicating that if children don’t learn good behavior, they can easily become criminals when they grow up. It’s because they didn’t realize stealing was wrong when they were young, and gradually become bold."

"See, I told you, Kevin is absolutely right, I am worried about Chris’s future criminal behavior!"

Maldini shouted.

Adriana did not argue.

Even as she felt for the child, she hoped he would learn his lesson.

Adriana looked anxiously at Huang Kaiwen and asked, "What do you think we should do then?"

"Beat him!"

Huang Kaiwen said fiercely.

"Beat him? I already did," Maldini said, "and that’s why she’s upset with me."

Maldini gestured towards his wife with his chin.

Looking at Adriana, Huang Kaiwen frowned and said, "Then this time I’ll have to side with Paul. From my experience, spanking is an effective way to correct children. If it doesn’t correct them, it’s because it wasn’t harsh enough. In our country, we have an expression, ’the rod out of the child produces filial piety,’ meaning if you want to educate children well, you must use the rod."

"I’ll give Chris a good beating when he comes back."

Maldini said through gritted teeth.

Adriana remained silent.

For the child’s future, suffering a bit now was warranted.

Huang Kaiwen then advised Maldini, "When you beat the child, you must do it with skill. If the stick is too thick, like with a 20 cm diameter, it can easily do harm."

"20 cm diameter? Do you think I’m an elephant?"

Maldini said annoyedly.

"I recommend using bamboo. It won’t do harm when striking the buttocks or hands, and it will leave an impression. Later, you can go to that HU store in Chinatown and buy a bamboo whip, mention my name and you’ll get a discount."

"I’ll go right away, and give Chris a surprise when he comes back," said Maldini, nodding. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Feeling it was about time, Huang Kaiwen asked, "May I take a look in Christian’s room? Although a child’s privacy should be protected, we should also understand their thoughts. As an outsider, it’s easier for me. If I don’t find any problems, I won’t mention it to you, and it won’t be difficult for you."

"Sure, that would be best,"

Adriana said, nodding.

She felt grateful to Kevin for being such a good person.

His proposed solution could reduce the conflict with their child.

If there were no problems, it could be overlooked, but if there were, privacy wouldn’t matter much.

She followed Adriana upstairs.
