Chapter 513: The Root of the Problem
There are three legends in the Sichuan-Chongqing area: many mountains, many beauties, and many mahjong halls.
In fact, the word mahjong hall is not particularly appropriate, because it is appropriate to replace the mahjong hall with various entertainment venues.
The phrase "less into the river" is not said casually. The entire Sichuan-Chongqing region is actually a slower-paced and more comfortable city. Some clues can be seen from the housing prices in Shuangqing.
It has been so many years since the development of the western part of Shuangqing, but the increase in housing prices has been very slow. Compared with the momentum of other municipalities directly under the central government, which rises by 50 percent in three years and doubles in five years, Shuangqing is too humiliating as a municipality directly under the central government. Housing prices are not as good as Dali and Kunming.
The same is true from the point of view of food, those small shops that sell skewers at the entrance of the community in Shuangqing, a skewer only costs eight cents. And now many fifth-tier cities sell skewers, and one has risen to one piece.
The pace of Sichuan and Chongqing people is always very comfortable, and if the house rises, then don't buy it. If you have an old house to live in, you don't think about buying a new house, and you don't bother to save a little money, and you are willing to eat and drink and use it up.
Needless to say, hot pot skewers, it is also excellent to go to the teahouse with friends and colleagues to set up a dragon gate array when you are not at work. If you like to listen to operas, Shuangqing also has a lot of teahouses and opera gardens.
Shuangqing is not so popular cross talk, but it has its own Sichuan-style jokes and burlesque.
Go to the teahouse and order a pot of tea, have a few plates of dim sum, find a master who plucks your ears, pluck your ears, and listen to jokes and watch burlesques after your ears are clean. Waiting for the time when the friend arrived, a box was opened on the teahouse, the Great Wall was stacked, and the time of the day passed quickly.
If you indulge in such a rhythm of life, you really can't save money, and you can't expect to buy a house. It will even wear away the ambitions of young people.
It was the first time Zhang Tong tried to let people pluck out their ears. I don't know if this is a characteristic of the Sichuan-Chongqing region, anyway, it is quite rare in other places.
However, it is indeed much more comfortable after picking out the ears.
The teahouse where mahjong is played was chosen by Jiang Aiguo. It's an old-school teahouse, very well decorated.
Because the fishing went so well today, the two old men had nothing to do when they went home so early, and they originally planned to spend an afternoon by the river. Now I have to go to the teahouse to kill some time.
It just so happened that Zhang Tong proposed that he could accompany the two old men to play mahjong, and the two brothers were happy, which was good. There are very few people in Sichuan and Chongqing who do not like to play mahjong.
So in the teahouse with a mahjong table, I first invited an ear plucker to pluck out everyone's ears, and then everyone began to build the Great Wall.
However, before playing cards, Jiang Hua specially called Zhang Tong aside: "What are you doing?!" I know now, you are using your electromagnetic force to cheat when playing cards, right? Last time, I almost had a heart attack on those uncles of mine. Let me tell you, you are not allowed to do this this time! My eldest and second uncle are old and not in good health, and they will not be able to bear it if you mess around twice. ”
"Oh, don't worry. There are young, strong, and healthy people at this table. Zhang Tong waved his hand absently.
"Are you talking about you?" Jiang Hua was a little skeptical.
"Isn't there your cousin? In line with the mentality that waste paper is also a resource, Zhang Tong pulled Jiang Daoliu to the table.
In fact, Chinese culture, especially the Chinese market Jianghua culture, is a very deep knowledge.
Several social occasions of the Chinese are very distinctive, and they are also places that many foreigners do not understand.
The first is the wine table, the culture on the wine table has a long history, which is simply accompanied by Chinese civilization for 5,000 years. How many reliable and unreliable major events have something to do with the banquet. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang's Hongmen Banquet, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's Green Plum Cooking Wine on Heroes, and Zhao Kuangyin's Cup of Wine to Release Military Power.
A glass of wine and a banquet have exhausted the 5,000-year history of the rise and fall of China.
In addition to the wine table, another important place is the gaming table. Humans are good at gambling, but there are very few civilizations that can treat the gambling table as a special social occasion like the Chinese.
How to bet with your leaders, how to bet with your colleagues, and how to bet with your business partners. The person who can perceive the heart in the casino and not indulge in gambling is called the real God of Gambling.
Sometimes gambling is not about winning, sometimes it doesn't matter if you win or lose at the table, and sometimes you can make up for it from outside the casino.
Zhang Tong has had some habits since he was a child, perhaps because his family opened a restaurant, so there are intersects between the three religions and the nine streams. If he hadn't had some charlatanism, he wouldn't have come out for Wang Xuewen back then.
So Zhang Tong is very good at the poker table, and he didn't play well with Jiang Hua's uncles before, because he was not familiar with the rules.
Now that you're familiar with the rules, it's up to you to do whatever you want.
"Thirty thousand. Jiang Daoliu sat at Zhang Tongxia's house, looked at the cards in his hand, and played 30,000.
"Huh!"
"Eh, I'm. ”
"Coincidentally, three shots, I also made a fool. ”
Jiang Daoliu scratched his head: "Ah?!" Can such a thing happen with three shots?
But fortunately, the fight was not big, and this one only lost more than five hundred. And Zhang Tong said that he didn't win, he also lost to his father and second uncle, and the meat was rotten in the pot.
Jiang Daoliu comforted himself so much, but the second one was played for less than ten minutes, and he fired the cannon again, this time it was not one shot or three shots, only Jiang Aiguo won the card.
"No, I said Dad. I'm your own son, and you can't help but be nonsense if your own son lights a cannon?"
"Why don't you be nonsense? Your money will rot in the pot when you come to me. What if Zhang Tong touches himself later, and the three of us have to give money?" Jiang Aiguo said very reasonably.
The fastest way for Chinese to build a relationship is to drink together, gamble and whatever.
After a few cards were played, the relationship between Zhang Tong and the two old brothers was established. Because the two brothers were very happy to win, although Jiang Daoliu's face was ugly, Zhang Tong didn't care.
"The luck of the eldest uncle and the second uncle is really good. Zhang Tong praised Jiang Aiguo and Jiang Ai after the party won two and one again.
"Where, where. It's also good to have a small feed card. Jiang Aidang praised Zhang Tong, then turned to Jiang Hua and said, "Huahua, the boyfriend you are looking for has a good brand." ”
"The brand is good, I don't know how the character is. Xiao Zhang, are you ready to marry Hua Hua?" Jiang Aiguo glanced at Zhang Tong.
Is the house in Huaihai? hehe~
However, Jiang Hua is good at being a person, and she immediately said: "Uncle and second uncle, Zhang Tong and I are going to buy the house in Huaihai together." He struggled to buy it alone. ”
Is Jiang Hua ready to agree to marry herself?!
Zhang Tong was excited in his heart, but Jiang Hua pinched Zhang Tong's thigh under the table, saying that this was just to help him talk again, don't think too much.
"Oh, that's fine. After all, housing prices in Huaihai are expensive. If you buy a house in Huaihai that is equivalent to the area of our Jiefangbei business district, then you can buy four houses of the same size in our Shuangqing. I'm afraid that if I buy a slightly better house, it will be close to 10 million, and I can't make money. can't be the same as my son Jiang Daoliu, who has a lot of ability to spend money, but not much ability to make money. Jiang Aiguo led the topic to Jiang Daoliu as he spoke: "I don't have any ability, I always want to cheat." ”
"Eh, what's wrong with me, Dad. I have taken over the family business for four years, and I am missing you to eat, or you to drink. The family's business didn't lose money, why don't you look at me unpleasantly?!" Jiang Daoliu has been losing money, although most of them have lost to his father, but he is always in a bad mood.
Jiang Aiguo's words ignited his temper. Don't look at this kid's usual casual and round-skinned face, but it's not easy to get down when he's really angry.
"What do you say, what's wrong with you? Shuangqing is now developing on a large scale! There are construction sites everywhere, and there is a building materials business everywhere. Others can seize the opportunity to start a business at once. Even doubled the size of the business in four years. Look at you, when you said that I should retire, you said that you could take over. Now look at it! You've taken over, what the hell is our family's business? Everyone is making progress, you are standing still, and this standing still is a regression! Are you still complacent? Who are you better than?" Jiang Aiguo was really unkind to teach his son a lesson.
"I'm too lazy to tell you. In the evening, I made an appointment with Director Wang of the First Bureau of Development and Construction in Yuzhong District for dinner. Jiang Daoliu put on his clothes and left, and the card broke up unhappily.
Jiang Aiguo was sulking, and Jiang Aiguo was comforting him: "You, at least Daoliu is willing to take over your business." Look at me, my son doesn't want to do this at all. Run to play some extreme sports and join that Red Bull death squad. When you hear the name [Expendables], it's not a good thing to hear. That's really ...... Hey, the three of our older generation have been competing for so many years, and our juniors will all lose to the third!"
Although Jiang Aidang said it very quietly, Zhang Tong still heard it.
He leaned his head on Jiang Hua's shoulder and whispered, "I kind of understand why your uncle and second uncle are unwilling to accept your father's proposal to reconcile, and they don't even want to see your father." ”
"Why?"
"Because at this time, their careers and connections are in the decline period, and your father is in the rising period. At this time, reconciliation is more like a kind of mercy after your father's success, showing his generosity. Hey, in the final analysis, your uncle and your father have been fighting for so many years, and they can't afford to lose. ”
