The bus was very crowded, Tang Xiao and her parents were on the bus in the staff community of the city's No. 1 Middle School, sitting in the last row, Chen Li stood on the handrail, standing in front of Tang Xiao and talking.

Tang Wen should have met Zheng Cong and Zheng Xingguo, the old man of the Zheng family, Chen Li didn't know why he refused to recognize the Zheng family, and he didn't know if Tang Xiao and her mother knew these things.

The sky was already dark, and the street lamps on both sides of the street shone in, shining on Tang Xiao's soft face, she was wearing a camel-colored tweed coat with a rose-red scarf tied in the collar, and a corner was slightly picked out, making her face more and more tender and charming.

At this time, Zhou Bin called, he had something to do temporarily, and there was no way to attend Zhang Xiaotian and Qi Rui's wedding, so let Chen Li bring his share of the gift money Chen Li He returned home just now, or took some cash from his sister-in-law Zhao Lingshan, and put together the gift money between him and Zhao Yang, at this time the bus was almost to the hotel, and he was still thinking about where to find a bank to withdraw cash.

Chen Li opened the address book on his mobile phone, thinking about who to send some cash, so he didn't have to wait to get out of the car and shout to the bank to withdraw money

"Zhou Bin has something to do?" The voice on the bus was very noisy, Chen Li and Zhou Bin were talking very loudly, Tang Xiao could hear that Zhou Bin was temporarily entangled in something, and there was no way to go over to drink the wine.

"yes, let me help him bring the gift money, I'll have to find the bank when I get out of the car later." Chen Li said.

"There doesn't seem to be any bank business next to Qingquan Hotel, you have to run a long way to get the money, Zhou Bin, how much gift money is he going to give, I'll help him put it on first." Tang Xiao said.

"How much are you going to send?" Chen Li asked.

Chen Li regarded Zhang Xiaotian and Qi Rui as just ordinary classmates, but Zhang Xiaotian invited him twice, and with the relationship between his second uncle's family, he couldn't shirk it before he decided to attend the wedding banquet.

The two gifts that Chen Li prepared for him and Zhao Yang were both two thousand, but when Tang Xiao asked at this time, he remembered how much gift money he gave to Zhou Bin and Zhao Yang, and he should follow other classmates.

"Huang Huixia and the others are going to give two hundred, I just thought about my parents and my mother's gift money, Zhang Xiaotian and Qi Rui are estimated not to accept it, so I will pack six hundred, and count my father and my mother's share, I can't eat someone's meal in vain. Tang Xiao said with a smile.

"Zhou Bin, this kid just now, is going to ask me to help him send him a gift of 2,000, and I will ask him to send 600 as we do, so the money in my pocket will be enough. Chen Li said with a smile.

"You young people, you are really generous, and the classmates' wedding gifts are ready to give two thousand, which is worth a month's salary! This Zhou Bin is also a classmate of your class?" Tang Xiao's mother Zhang Xiuzhi interjected with emotion and asked.

"Zhou Bin is a student in the sixth class of our class, he is the second generation of coal, rich mother, you taught English in their class, he was also admitted to CUHK later, and Chen Li was a classmate in the same dormitory in college, you have no impression at all?" Tang Xiao said to her mother.

"Is that guy who is tall and big, and is very capable of tossing, but is still quite brilliant in his studies? Every year, so many graduates are sent away, where do I remember so many students! When you say that, I remember that his family is a coal mine? So now he is really rich, and everyone who runs a coal mine is so rich that Zhang Xiaotian, who is married today, also runs a coal mine at home, right?" Zhang Xiuzhi thought of Zhou Bin at this time, and said with emotion to her husband Tang Jingxue, "Now we are the only poor teachers left, and we are really not rich!"

Tang Wenwen may feel that it is not appropriate for his wife to express such feelings in front of students, his brows furrowed, and he asked Chen Lizhong with a smile where he would work after graduating from CUHK.

At this time, Chen Li could only say that he was working as a marketing planner in a real estate company after graduation, and if he wanted to say that he was the actual controller of a listed company, he had to be believed.

"It's good to join the real estate company now, the house price has risen so high, the salary and bonus of the real estate company should be very high, right?" Zhang Xiuzhi asked, "Do you talk about the current house price in Qingquan, will it continue to rise? We still have a headache Whether to buy a house for Tang Xiao in Qingquan, or simply give her the money and let her make a down payment to buy a small house in Pujiang to live in first, however, Pujiang wants to make a ridiculously high house in the house price." ”

Zhang Xiuzhi couldn't sleep these days after thinking about this problem, and finally met a "professional", so she couldn't help but ask, and even wanted to know if Chen Li's company had real estate in Qingquan, and if they took the house through Chen Li, would they be able to get a preferential price for internal employees.

"Mom, I didn't even think about getting married, why do you care about this? It's not that you don't have a house to live in," Tang Xiao complained.

"You're not too young, maybe when you meet the right person, you'll talk about marriage. I have been a teacher with your dad all my life, and your dad now says that he is the vice principal, but in fact he is nothing, and saving for a lifetime may not help you make up enough for a down payment. You and your dad are open-minded, but no matter who you meet in the future, it's much better if you have a house of your own. Zhang Xiuzhi said.

Chen Li could hear that Tang Xiao's family had different opinions on this matter, and he could only say next to him: "I can still help people get internal preferential prices in Xinrui City and Yulong Garden, Teacher Zhang, Teacher Tang, when do you want to buy a house, call me, and I will accompany you to choose a house." ”

Bus No. 6 has a stop in front of Qingquan Hotel, Chen Li got off with Tang Xiao, Tang Wenwen and Zhang Xiuzhi and walked to Qingquan Hotel together.

The sixth day of the Lunar New Year is a good day, there are three couples in the hotel lobby standing there to greet relatives and friends who come to eat and drink, Zhang Xiaotian and Qi Rui stand on the side of the corner marble staircase, Chen Li and his cousins Chen Cheng, Fan Hongwei, and Cao Lin are also in straight suits, which should be today's best men, and Zhang Xiaotian's sister and Chen Li's other two girlfriends in their class, wearing pink off-the-shoulder dresses, should be today's bridesmaids.

Chen Li gave the gift money, and first went up to the banquet hall on the second floor with Tang Xiao, Tang Jingyi, and Zhang Xiuzhi.

Zhang Xiaotian and Qi Rui invited a lot of high school classmates to attend.

Although Zhang Xiuzhi has only given their class a month's class, Zhang Xiuzhi was very beautiful when she was young, and she was almost in her early forties when she taught them, which left a very deep impression on everyone.

Although Zhang Xiuzhi is now nearly fifty years old, it can be said that the charm still exists, not to mention that Tang Xiao and everyone are still classmates, and everyone is eagerly coming over to say hello at this time.

Chen Li saw that the head teacher and several classroom teachers in high school asked Zhang Xiaotian to invite him over, and he was also eager to reminisce about the past.

Zhang Xiaotian's father Zhang Hua, although his status in the Qingquan coal circle is not good compared with Zhou Dahai, but now he also has a net worth of thirty or forty million, and Qi Rui's father Qi Hong is also a small achievement.

Chen Li saw his second uncle Chen Biao, standing in a corner of the banquet hall with Zhang Hua and Qi Hong, chatting with a few well-dressed middle-aged people, he just wanted to dodge, but his second uncle Chen Biao happened to turn around and beckoned him to come over to talk, as if he wanted to introduce others to him.

Chen Li was too lazy to go over to socialize, and raised his hand happily, even if he said hello, he sat back at Tang Xiao's table and chatted with other classmates who hadn't seen him for a while.

Chen Li wanted to hide, but his second uncle Chen Biao and Zhang Hua didn't let him hide, and walked straight over with those middle-aged people.

"Chen Li, my own nephew, the youngest son of my eldest brother's family, is in the same class as Xiaotian, and he looks like a talent, right?" Chen Biao smiled and pulled Chen Li up and introduced him to others, but he really didn't know how to introduce Chen Li's identity more specifically, so he couldn't tell the fact that Kong Wenzheng sent Rolls-Royce a few years ago, right?

Those middle-aged people also felt inexplicable at this time, Chen Biao was not a figure in their eyes, but he and Zhang Hua were future in-laws, so they gave a few thin noodles, and at this time, they asked Chen Biao to come over to introduce his nephew, what is the matter?

Chen Biao wants to introduce his nephew to work?

"He is also the nephew of Shen Jianhong and President Shen of the state, and the grandson of Shen Jingtang's most intimate grandson!" Zhang Hua explained beside him.

"Oh" The name of Shen Jianhong, a few people present have heard of it, is a real estate tycoon with a much higher level than them, and the status of the old man of the Shen family in the Qingquan coal circle is not to mention, when Shen Jingtang was the leader of the Qingquan Coal Industry Group for more than eight years, Zhang Hua, Qi Hong and the few people present were even ordinary employees of the Qingquan Coal Industry Group, how could they not know?

Shen Jingtang's grandson and Shen Jianhong's nephew are indeed worthy of their friendship, and everyone shook hands with Chen Li eagerly at this time.

Chen Li, Tang Xiao and several of them were selected to sit at a table with the groom Zhang Xiaotian and the bride Qi Rui, and more than a dozen other high school classmates, as well as Zhang Xiaotian, Qi Rui's junior high school and university classmates, were also arranged to have a banquet at two tables nearby.

Halfway through the banquet, Chen Li was pulled over by his second uncle and toasted the guests at Zhang Hua and Qi Hong's table.

At the dinner table, the most talked about is the most lively housing prices, coal prices and ultra-high interest rates on private loans in Qingquan.

Due to the continuous improvement of the real estate and coal economy, the private lending market in Qingquan City has also been completely activated, and because there have been no defaults or money flight incidents in the Qingquan private lending market, everyone is full of strong interest in financial companies like Zhang Xiaotian and others.

Chen Li was also at this time, listening to Zhang Hua and his second uncle chatting, Wanbang Jialong planned to borrow a total of 3 billion funds from Qingquan Finance Company.

Wanbang Jialong's statement to the outside world is that Fanglong Real Estate, Wanbang and Jiahe Group have raised 17 billion yuan for the development and construction of Jiangbin Jialong New Town, and the follow-up needs to supplement the shortage of liquidity from Qingquan Rong 3 billion yuan, because few Qingquan citizens deposit money in the bank, so that Qingquan's banking system can issue extremely limited loans, and they can only borrow from the private sector.

Wanbang Jialong can not openly step on the line of illegal fundraising, and large-scale financing can only be cooperated with financial companies that have been all over the streets and alleys of Qingquan City at this time, although this has actually touched the line of illegal fundraising, but who can control them at this time?

Of course, Chen Li knew that Wanbang, Fanglong Real Estate, and Golden Harvest Group would not be able to raise such a huge amount of funds as 17 billion yuan, if this was the case, they would not need to go to great lengths to transfer Meng Xuede from Qingquan Meng Xuede and then be hostile to Wanbang Jialong, and then play against Zhang Wei and them, and it would be impossible to refuse such a huge investment.

There are only some reasons, Chen Li has no way to talk to his second uncle Chen Biao, Fan Hongwei, Cao Lin, and Zhang Xiaotian too thoroughly, just remind them to be careful, it is best not to participate in Wanbang Jialong's fundraising.

Others, however, shrugged off Chen's reminder.

Wanbang Real Estate, Fanglong Real Estate and Golden Harvest Group are well-known enterprises in the province and even the whole country, Wanbang Real Estate has a market value of more than 40 billion, is the top ten real estate groups in China, Fanglong Real Estate has been slow to develop in business capital and Qingquan in recent years, but it has built a lot of residential areas and commercial buildings in the base camp of Los Angeles, and Golden Harvest Group has just opened a new home appliance store in Qingquan City in the city center, and the social convenience supermarket under Golden Harvest and the real estate agency stores under Fanglong Real Estate have also opened all over the streets and alleys of Qingquan.

Wanbang Jialong, a joint venture of the three major groups, is building the largest single real estate in the province Jiangwan Jialong City opposite Qingfeng Mountain at this time, and the scale is even above Nanhua New City and Xiushan Xinrui City and Qingquan Xinrui City.

Fan Hongwei and Cao Lin were at the wine table, and they also instilled this information with other classmates, Chen Li said a few words, seeing that others didn't like to listen, he wouldn't debate anything with others, so he sat aside and chatted with Tang Xiao.

"When I went back to Qingquan this time, I felt that everyone seemed to be crazy about the house and fundraising, and my mother also moved her mind, and wanted my dad to take out the year-end bonus and put it in which financial company to eat interest, but my dad didn't agree, so my mom fell from the end of the year to the end of the year, which is really annoying," Tang Xiaoxiao said with emotion, and asked Chen Li, "Is your aunt very famous in Qingquan, everyone comes to say hello, and they all mention your aunt's name?"

"Everyone is crazy about the house, my aunt runs a real estate company, and there is also a development in Qingquan, of course, she is famous. Chen Li said with a smile.

Tang Xiaoyao's mouth was silent for a long time before he finally asked, "How is your relationship with Mr. Li?"

Chen Li didn't know how to explain his relationship with Li Meng, nodded and said, "Well, I only saw her in the morning," and said jokingly, "As long as you don't misunderstand that I eat soft rice." ”

"How could I misunderstand you? You are too similar to my father's personality," Tang Xiao said wistfully, "The reason back then, and I back then, was it too naïve?"

Chen Li glanced at Tang Wenwen and Zhang Xiuzhi sitting at the high school teacher's table, Zhang Xiuzhi was chatting with others about the house and fundraising, and Tang Jingyi was sitting there a little lonely and smoking, unable to talk to others, and didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

Tang Xiao resigned from Li Meng's company, and the email she left for Li Meng mentioned a lot of her growth process, as well as the reasons for breaking up with him at the beginning, Chen Li was still a little incomprehensible at the time, but at this time he thought about it a little, but he didn't expect Tang Wenwen to mention his life experience and the relationship between the Zheng family to his wife Zhang Xiuzhi and daughter Tang Xiao until now.

Tang Xiao may not really understand what kind of person her father is, but her intuition can't be wrong.
