Chen Li asked his father to hurry, and reluctantly pulled Zhou Bin to sit at the same table as Zhang Xiaotian and Chen Cheng, and at this time, he was next to the main table where his second uncle Chen Biao, Zhou Dahai, his brother Chen Bing, his uncle Chen Man, Qi Hong, Zhang Hua and others were sitting, and the table of his cousin Chen Cheng was Zhang Xiaotian, Fan Hongwei, Cao Lin and others, who were cousin Chen Cheng and the guests he thought were important.

Sitting down, Chen Li learned that Chen Cheng and Zhang Xiaotian's sister Zhang Ping, the girl who was dressed fashionably and beautifully and spoke loudly, had been engaged two months ago.

He was busy with the company's restructuring and listing during that time, and he didn't go back to Qingquan much, and his family knew that he had a lot of things in his hands, so they didn't call him back to attend Chen Cheng's engagement banquet. Because of this, his father was also complained by his second uncle.

The world is said to be big, and the circle is small, and Chen Li never imagined that one day, he would be related to Zhang Xiaotian and bring him to the wine table in Qingquan, either talking about coal, financing, or real estate, and today Wanbang Jialong won seven construction lands and started the news of Binjiang Jialong New Town, which was published in the Qingquan Evening News issued by the city at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Li and Zhou Bin sat down, Zhang Xiaotian and Cao Lin They chatted hotly, Chen Li and Zhou Bin were drinking wine and listening to them brag and fart.

"Chen Li, your brother is the president of Guobang Real Estate, why haven't I heard you say it before?" Zhang Xiaotian stared at Chen Li and asked.

"My brother is my brother, I am me, how much money my brother makes, my sister-in-law is watching, and she can't give me flowers, I use my brother as a banner to carry out, is it interesting?" Chen Li asked jokingly, "Besides, Zhou Bin's family is rich, and there are many beautiful girls around him, right? No matter how good my relationship with him is, I haven't seen him lend me one." ”

Zhou Bin moved the chair to the side and scolded with a smile, "No matter how many girlfriends you have, you can't borrow them casually, you kid has bad intentions, I decided to hide from you in the future." ”

"That's what I said, but Guobang Real Estate is so large-scale, I heard that your aunt invested with your uncle, and your brother is the president in it, with an annual salary of millions a year, you are a graduate of CUHK, and you are studying economics, go in and mix a vice president or senior manager, even if there is no million, the annual salary has to start at 500,000, which is much better than you fooling around in business, right?" Zhang Xiaotian said.

"There are benefits of being blind, and it is better than being controlled by the family in Qingquan. Chen Li said nonsense.

Seeing that Chen Li never answered his words, Zhang Xiaotian was also right, Fan Hongwei and Cao Lin ate the wine at this time, stood up and pulled Chen Li and Zhou Bin to dry half a glass of liquor.

Listening to their high-minded discussions there, eager to let everyone know what they did last year, Chen Li learned that not only Fan Hongwei and Cao Lin had joined Zhang Xiaotian's financial company, but even Chen Cheng had taken the two million that he had saved up in the past two years from his father Chen Biao to participate.

Zhang Xiaotian's financial company has increased its capital from 10 million at the end of last year to 30 million now, and in 05 years, in addition to the principal invested by each of them, they have earned 2 million yuan by borrowing and lending to eat the interest rate difference. Everyone has more than 300,000 yuan at the end of the year, like Fan Hongwei and Cao Lin, Chen Cheng has more than 500,000 yuan, and Zhang Xiaotian, as the leader, has more than 1 million income this year.

The outlier of Zhou Bin is not counted, Zhang Xiaotian is so many in Qingquan that he only knows how to eat and use coal at home, and he can be regarded as a young man.

At present, the new real estate in Qingquan is being developed everywhere, and the total amount of loans from banks in the city to the real estate industry may be more than 3 billion, which makes the demand for real estate enterprises to borrow from the private sector extremely strong.

Financial companies like Zhang Xiaotian, if they don't consider the risk, no matter how much money they have, they can be released to eat the interest rate difference, which also leads to their extremely strong demand for funds with low financial costs, after all, in their eyes, as long as there are enough funds to come in, they can be released to eat the interest margin.

It's just that now the people of Qingquan City are impetuous, and no one is willing to deposit money in the bank anymore, and the cost of Zhang Xiaotian and their efforts to gather funds has also risen. He had called Zhou Bin several times before, and wanted to pull Zhou Bin into the gang, which was nothing more than a fancy to Zhou Bin's Binhai Coal Industry in Qingquan is also one of the famous "gold mines", thinking that after Zhou Bin joined the gang, he could bring in a large amount of money, but Zhou Bin found an excuse to refuse.

The scale of Guobang Real Estate is far inferior to Xinrui City, but because the Shen family is more deeply rooted in Qingquan, its influence and prestige in the Qingquan coal circle are beyond the reach of the new rich.

In addition, Chen Li's eldest uncle Shen Xingbang and second uncle Shen Dingguo have relatively big mouths, and they can't wait to let everyone know that Guobang Real Estate originally acquired land at a low price of less than 300,000 per mu in the northeast suburbs, which was the wise decision of their brothers, so that everyone in the Qingquan coal circle now knows that Guobang Real Estate has been fat in the past two years.

The middle-level managers of Guobang Real Estate have a year-end bonus of 3.5 million yuan, and the annual salary of the management at the level of deputy general manager and senior director is more than one million.

Now in Qingquan, the name of Chen Li's aunt and Shen Jianhong, chairman of Guobang Real Estate, may not be slightly worse than Kong Wenzheng.

Zhang Xiaotian knew that Chen Li had these relationships behind him, so he naturally tried every possible way to pull Chen Li into the gang, thinking that Chen Li could get a large amount of money from his brother, his aunt, and two uncles to invest in the finance company, and the scene was as lively as a pyramid scheme pulling people into the gang.

Chen Li just listened to them blow down with a smile on his face. That's a bit of a joke.

Later, Zhang Xiaotian and Cao Lin persuaded them to drink too diligently, and Chen Li simply didn't even hold up the wine glass, which made Zhang Xiaotian's mouth fall into a daze, and he didn't eat oil and salt, and then he was tired of listening to it, so he simply borrowed a toast and hid back to his parents' table with Zhou Bin, and no longer bothered Zhang Xiaotian and them.

After a while, the second uncle Chen Biao came over, pulled Chen Tong and Chen Li over to toast the guests at the main table, and also introduced everyone to know each other Because Chen Bing was there, Zhou Dahai saw that Chen Tong was extremely polite, and everyone also politely stood up and clinked glasses with Chen Tong and Chen Li to drink.

Probably dissatisfied with Chen Li's indifferent attitude just now that embarrassed Zhang Xiaotian, or maybe Chen Cheng, who had drunk too much wine and came over with a wine glass, said to Chen Li unhappily at this time: "Xiaoping's brother is also thinking of being a classmate with you, pointing you a way to make money, just forget it if you don't listen, and even go into hiding?" Among our brothers, your academic performance is the best and the smartest, since I was a child, my father wanted me to study with you, but you have a shortcoming, that is, the more you read the book, the less courageous you become. Don't say that you have an annual salary of several million like Brother Chen Bing, even if you are like me, you can earn five or six hundred thousand a year, can your girlfriend abandon you and leave?"

Chen Li fell in love with Tang Xiao and broke up later, he never mentioned it to his family, and there was no need to mention it, he didn't expect him and Zhou Bin to leave for a while, so Zhang Xiaotian, Cao Lin, Fan Hongwei and they were all jokes for Chen Cheng to know, and he didn't expect Chen Cheng to make a few bucks, and his temperament would float like this, and he was so easily encouraged by Zhang Xiaotian to be called a gun He was called Chen Cheng and stabbed hard, at this time, he just glanced at Zhang Xiaotian, picked up the wine glass and stood there silently.

Chen Tong and Chen Bing were stunned, they didn't expect Chen Li to fall in love, but they were dumped by other girls.

"What nonsense, drinking too much?" Chen Biao saw that Chen Li's face was a little wrong, and reprimanded his son Chen Cheng twice, asking him to sit back and stop talking nonsense.

"I'm just telling the truth, I said it so seriously, it's also for Chen Li's good. Chen Cheng said unconvinced.

Chen Li ignored Chen Cheng, picked up the wine glass with a gloomy face and sat back at his parents' table.

"What's the matter, who did you fall in love with and break up?" Chen Tong sat back after toasting and asked in a low voice.

"What, you broke up with Tongtong's classmate?" Shen Jianping's ears were sharp, and when she heard this, her ears were about to stand up, and she immediately turned sideways, eager to pull Chen Li's collar over, and asked, "That girl has such a good personality and appearance, why did she break up, is there some misunderstanding?" You are a boy, even if people have a little temper and temperament, you have to let others a little!" You have to know that girls are a little irritable during their menstrual periods, and their tempers are not so docile, but you also have to understand this, even if you have a girlfriend in the future, it will be like this, you can't be too picky about others."

Seeing that his mother didn't know where to go, Chen Li said with a smile: "Mom, what I told you is not the same thing at all?"

"What, do you have other girlfriends? How many girlfriends do you have, don't you learn from Zhou Bin!" Shen Jianping said.

"Aunt, aunt, I didn't offend you today, you teach Chen Li a lesson, you don't have to take me with you. Zhou Bin smiled without conscience.

At this time, the banquet was almost over, and relatives and friends who were not accustomed to socializing left the table one after another, Chen Li saw that the time was about the same, and went to greet his second uncle and younger uncle, preparing to take Zhou Dahai to go together.

"Xiao Li, Chen Cheng drank too much wine today, and said some nonsense, don't take it to heart," Chen Biao held a wine glass in his hand, and also accompanied his quasi-in-laws, Zhang Xiaotian's father Zhang Hua to sit there and drink the last glass of wine, seeing Chen Li, they were going to leave first, and apologized for his son Chen Cheng's gaffe just now, but before Chen Li said he didn't mind, he changed his words again, "Chen Cheng's words are not good, but his heart is still good, and I also hope that you brothers can have a good future." Your uncle and I have been running a company for more than ten years, this year's harvest is slightly better, earning more than one million, and it will be the end Chen Cheng and Xiaotian they opened a company, and they earned more than half of me in the first year, although it is not easy to compare with your brother, but in our old Chen family, it can be regarded as the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, which is enough to give your second uncle a long face. You should consider thinking about working with Chen Cheng and Xiaotian, I think you really have to be determined, and your brother will definitely support you."

Chen Li didn't expect his second uncle to apologize, but in fact, he was also confused by Zhang Xiaotian's business, and when he came as a lobbyist, he really didn't know what to say.

"This is Mr. Chen's younger brother, and he is a classmate of Xiao Tian and Mr. Zhou's son?" Zhang Hua seemed to see Chen Li at this time, looked at Chen Li and said, "Young man is a talent, where do you work now, is you also in Guobang Real Estate?" Some time ago, I just met your uncle Shen Xingbang is your uncle, right? You are not in your uncle Shen Zong's company, and it is not interesting in other companies, except for relatives, no one gives you a high salary, especially if you have just graduated for less than two years. You work with Xiaotian, you must not have run away, your brother, your uncle, and your aunt are all loud figures in Qingquan, you have to do it with Xiaotian, one million a year is not an easy thing, it is not better than what to do, how can you let the girl be dumped? Mr. Zhou, Mr. Chen, Mr. Qi, do you say this is the truth? Young man, you must be bold in doing things, and accompany your uncle to have two drinks. Xiaotian, Chen Cheng, you all sat down, I don't think you drank much today, by the way, Xiaotian and Xiaorui held a wedding banquet on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, did you invite your classmates?"

Chen Li didn't hear Zhang Xiaotian mention the wedding banquet he held with Qi Rui on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year just now, but at this time, Zhang Hua mentioned that Zhang Xiaotian sat there and didn't move, and he didn't follow his father's words to say about the invitation, and he was probably very dissatisfied that he was not pulled down by them Cao Lin and Fan Hongwei were a little embarrassed, but at this time they were also sitting motionless next to Zhang Xiaotian.

Chen Li could see that his second uncle was very satisfied with Zhang Hua, an in-law with a net worth of tens of millions, and his father stood aside "eyeing him", telling him that he couldn't smash his second uncle's field at this time and just throw his face and leave, so he could only be dragged by Zhang Hua to sit down and take the wine glass, drink two sips, and sit there listening to their "earnest teachings", feeling annoyed.

Zhou Dahai received a phone call at this time, and smiled at Chen Li: "Lao Kong has a gift for you, I asked him to send it directly to Liuhe Hotel."

Chen Li didn't understand who Zhou Dahai said about Lao Kong, and he didn't know what the gift was, anyway, it was already the end of the year, and if he knew his identity, he would send some New Year's gifts at the end of the year to express his heart, and he didn't particularly care.

When the relatives and friends in the banquet hall were almost gone, even Chen Li, his grandfather and grandmother, were all driven back by Chen Bing's arrangement, and the last one put down the wine glass in his hand and stumbled out of the door.

A brand-new silver Rolls-Royce Phantom was parked in front of the main building of the Liuhe Hotel, and the lights in the lobby came out, illuminating the car brightly.

Many relatives and friends did not leave, standing outside the lobby and pointing around this Rolls-Royce Phantom to admire.

Although at this time, top luxury cars such as Qingquan, Rolls-Royce, Bentley, and Maybach are also common, but a luxury car of nearly 10 million yuan in front of ordinary people is still shocking enough.

"Hey, which big guy is also eating here today," Zhang Hua couldn't help but look back at the lobby and glance around, he knew that Chen Li was Chen Bing's disciple, Shen Jianhong's nephew, and Shen Xingbang's nephew, so he pressed Chen Li's shoulder very seriously and sighed, "Look at this car, young man, you have to work hard, this is your goal in the future." ”

"He, if you can't listen to what you say, don't think about this car in this life," Chen Cheng thought that Chen Li's ignorance today made him lose face in front of his future brother-in-law Zhang Xiaotian and father-in-law Zhang Hua, and he was full of unhappiness, and said coldly, "He has a self-conscious temperament, if he can drive this car, I can drive a rocket all over the street." ”

Chen Li sighed in his heart, knowing that Chen Cheng had lived in his shadow since he was a child, he might be full of disbelief in his heart, and now he finally has a beautiful girlfriend, and a father-in-law with a net worth of tens of millions, and he can also have a harvest of four or five hundred thousand a year, and he can't wait to get back all the unconvincing in the past ten years at once, and he doesn't bother to pay attention to Chen Cheng's cynicism, thinking that he will deal with the past today with patience, and just ignore it in the future.

At this time, the door of the Rolls-Royce opened, and the driver got out of the car and walked this way.

"Mr. Chen, this is a gift from Mr. Kong, Mr. Kong asked me to ask you, are you satisfied?"

Chen Li was stunned for a moment, then remembered that the driver in front of him who looked a little familiar, was Kong Wenzheng's driver, and looked at Zhou Dahai who was hiding behind to watch the excitement in surprise: "This is what gift you just said?"

Chen Li also joked with Kong Wenzheng in the afternoon, but he didn't expect that Kong Wenzheng would actually send a Rolls-Royce over.

Chen Li was very surprised, and he couldn't accept a Rolls-Royce without saying a word, and he didn't pay attention to the shocked appearance of his second uncle, Zhang Hua and a group of people with eggs stuffed in their mouths, and walked to the side to call Kong Wenzheng: "Mr. Kong, today's joke is a bit big, I can't take this car!"

"I didn't send it alone, even if I want to send it, it is impossible to have a car today," Kong Wenzheng laughed on the phone, "It's Lao Wang, a few of them, like me, they all think your Phaeton is too ugly, it just so happens that Lao Wang recently ordered two Rolls-Royce, thinking that today I can't let you give us half a day of class in vain, everyone pays a class fee, and you make up this Rolls-Royce if you don't accept it, then you remove the two wheels and return them to me, and I will pay for the two wheels." ”

A Rolls-Royce is not worth much, but this favor is great, Chen Li had no way to return the car, so he could only reluctantly smile at this Rolls-Royce and say a lot of thanks to Kong Wenzheng.

"Mr. Kong, which Mr. Kong, how could he send a Rolls-Royce to you, isn't it a joke?" Chen Li hung up the phone and walked back, his second uncle Chen Biao and his younger uncle Chen Manjiu all woke up and came over, and asked nonsense.

"It's Mr. Kong Wenzheng of Xillong Group, I gave them a lesson in the afternoon, and they gave me this Rolls-Royce as a lecture fee, and they didn't ask me if I liked Rolls-Royce, alas," Chen Li reluctantly handed the key to his mother Shen Jianping, and said, "The favor sent by Mr. Kong really can't be returned casually, this car can't be returned, Mom, you can drive to and from work in the future."

"You kid, I'm afraid that I won't be hated enough when I drive this car to the hospital?" Shen Jianping glared at Chen Li with disgust and slapped his hand back.
