In 2003, farmers were still very yearning for the buildings in the city.

In this era, although the real estate market is said to be liberalized, the new real estate in the city is not enough for the urban population to consume, so many newly developed real estate projects are lottery purchases. Another point is that the awareness of farmers to buy a house is not strong, and few farmers will consider buying a house in the city.

When he arrived at Zhou Peng's house, drinking more than 100 yuan a pound of black tea, Zhou Shihong persuaded Meng Sihai to sit at the top, while Zhou Shihong sat next to Meng Sihai, and Zhou Peng and Meng Chaoyuan's mother sat on both sides.

Zhou Peng sat opposite, and Meng Chaoyuan was busy washing some fruit.

"Xiao Zhou, is the place we went to just now your company, what are they doing?" Meng Sihai asked.

"Uncle, they're training the new employees I'm hiring. ”

At this time, Meng Chaoyuan washed some fruit and brought it over, and then poured tea for Zhou Shihong first and then for his father with a smile.

"Brother, this tea is quite delicious. Zhou Shihong held the tea bowl and persuaded Meng Sihai to drink tea.

The tea set in Zhou Peng's house is also high-grade, which opened the eyes of Meng Sihai and Zhou Shihong.

If you want to talk about the real city-level situation, Meng Sihai's family, although it can be regarded as a worker's family, is not high, and the monthly salary is only a few hundred yuan.

In this era, the wages of migrant workers cannot be raised, and the salary of a large worker is only 20 yuan for one day, while the salary of a small worker is only 10 yuan.

It's like the salary of a teacher in the township, which is a few hundred dollars.

Here in Quancheng, the monthly salary of urban workers is only 1,000 yuan, and those who exceed 2,000 can be regarded as white-collar workers.

And the most terrible thing is that there are still many wage arrears in this era, and many contract foremen have no money to pay their wages to the migrant workers they hire by the end of the year.

Meng Chaoyuan smiled and said to her future father-in-law: "Uncle, this tea is delicious, right?"

"Well, it's delicious. ”

"This tea tastes good. ”

The four old men praised the tea under Zhou Peng's house, and then held the exquisite tea bowls, all of them looked cautious.

"This tea was bought by me and Zhou Peng the day before yesterday, 120 yuan a catty. ”

Zhou Shihong was also taken aback when he heard this, and his face was a little tight, he glanced at Meng Sihai next to him and said, "It's the first time I've drunk such expensive tea." ”

Meng Sihai said: "I'm not an outsider, why use such expensive tea, we only drink a few yuan a pound of old dry baking at home." ”

Zhou Peng hurriedly said: "Uncle, let's go to the restaurant for dinner in a while, it's eleven o'clock now, let's drink some tea and go over." ”

"What are you wasting money in a restaurant? Why don't we just cook something at home?"

Zhou Peng hurriedly waved his hand and said to Meng Chaoyuan's father: "It's troublesome at home, it's easy to save trouble in the restaurant, after eating, Meng Chaoyuan and I will take you to Baotu Spring in Daming Lake in Quancheng Square to play." ”

"No, you should be very busy when you start a company, you can just be busy with yours, and we can eat noodles at home." "Meng Sihai is quite stubborn.

Zhou Shihong next to him said: "Brother, the children are ready, let's not shirk." ”

In this way, Meng Sihai smiled a little embarrassed and said: "That's really a waste of money, ordinary people can't live like this." ”

Zhou Pengxin said, I am not an ordinary person, although I said that I have not yet had a relationship with those who have heads and faces, but in terms of making money, no one in the whole Quancheng can compare to me.

The family drank tea for a while in the house rented by Zhou Peng and Meng Chaoyuan, and then Zhou Peng took everyone into Lu Normal University, and then came to the Hanlin Courtyard Hotel from the south gate of Lu Normal University.

Entering the hotel lobby, a busy greeter stepped forward and asked, "Sir, do you have a reserved room?"

After Zhou Peng said the reserved room, the welcome girl took everyone into the private room.

Meng Sihai and Zhou Shihong, no one said anyone, they were all grandmothers Liu's expressions when they entered the Grand View Garden.

When they arrived in the private room, Zhou Peng and Zhou Shihong let Meng Sihai sit at the top.

Although Meng Chaoyuan is also the first time to come to such a high-end hotel, after all, this is a four-star hotel, in 2003, the whole Quancheng side of the Hanlin Hotel is the most high-grade. Even the marriage of several stars of the Luneng football team was arranged to be entertained at the Hanlin Hotel. However, because she knew how much money her husband had in his bank card, and this time her husband put 10,000 yuan in his bag and asked her to go to the checkout, so she was still very confident in her heart.

As for Zhou Peng, although he said that he had never been in a four-star hotel a few times in his previous life, he had a few times in the school to study outside, and he was indeed arranged in a four-star hotel.

After sitting down, the waiter in the private room came over with the order menu and asked Zhou Peng, "Is it an order or a standard?"

"Standard, how much money do you have?"

"There are four types: 58 one, 128 one, 168 one and 288 one, which standard does the sir order?"

Zhou Peng stretched out his hand and revealed the brand-name watch he had just bought for more than 4,000 yuan the day before yesterday, and pointed to the waiter and said, "What are the dishes of the standard of 288?"

"There are sea cucumbers, abalone, lobsters......"

Zhou Peng nodded, and then said, "It's the standard of 288." ”

"Then what kind of wine does the gentleman drink?"

Zhou Pengxin said that this is all the standard of 288, and the wine must not be bad, so he asked: "How much is Moutai?"

"260 a bottle. ”

"Where's Wuliangye?"

"320 a bottle. ”

Zhou Peng nodded, and then asked Meng Chaoyuan's father, Meng Sihai, who was sitting opposite him: "Uncle, do you like to drink Moutai or Wuliangye?"

Where has Meng Sihai drunk Moutai and Wuliangye in his life, and the best wine he has drunk so far is only Taishan Daqu, so he said: "Whatever, you don't need to drink such a good wine." ”

To be honest, when I heard these names from my future son-in-law, I had only heard of them, but I really hadn't seen them.

"That's not good, then let's try two bottles of Wuliangye first, if it doesn't taste like you, let's change to Moutai." ”

"When will the food be served?"

"Now. ”

"Yes sir, I'll arrange it for you right away. ”

Seeing the waitress walking out with very standard steps, Meng Chaoyuan's mother hurriedly asked her daughter next to her: "Yuan, our table of dishes costs 288 yuan?"

In these years, banquets were held in the countryside, and a table cost at most 100 yuan.

"No, what I just said was 288 yuan per person, and there are 6 of us in total. ”

Meng Chaoyuan has confidence in her heart, Zhou Peng gave her 10,000 yuan.

Originally, she was quite thrifty, but at the speed at which her husband made money, it would be boring if she continued to be so frugal.

When the four parents present heard this, they were so frightened that the sweat on their backs flowed out.
