Chapter 576: Sorrow
"What's going on at my second aunt's house?"
Now the New Year's greetings, for Zhang Chu and them, it is becoming more and more lively. That is, a large family all went to a relative's house to pay New Year's greetings, and each brought a child.
Zhang Chu, Zhang Yong, and Zhang Yan are three couples, and they are still with children. Coupled with He Ming's husband and wife and Zhang Chu's sister-in-law, a group of people drove a few cars to go to a few aunts' houses to walk around, which looked very lively.
Zhang Chu's second aunt and Zhang Chu are not the same town, their town is much worse than Zhang Chu's town, and this side is also close to the mountainous area. However, Zhang Chu's second aunt is not a farmer, and Zhang Chu's second aunt works in a public coal mine over there.
His second aunt also works in the mine and is engaged in logistics. Two daughters and a son, the eldest daughter married an officer, and after changing jobs, she worked as a prison guard leader in a detention center in the south.
Zhang Chu and Huang Yan knew each other, and she introduced them. But now she doesn't teach in the city, but follows her husband and is transferred there to work as a clerk.
The second aunt's son worked in the mine and took over the second aunt's husband's shift. Then I found a wife here, much later than the two Zhang Chu brothers got married, and now the child is just over a year old.
The youngest daughter took over the second aunt's class, and also worked in the mine, engaged in logistics. This coal mine is not state-run, and I don't know if it belongs to their town or the city.
Although the coal mine has not been closed or closed, the benefits have not been very good in recent years. This is a very strange phenomenon, other people's private coal mines are making money, but they just can't make any money.
In the past, the benefits were much better, and at that time, Zhang Chu's second aunt and their family conditions were also the best among several relatives, and they didn't look down on Zhang Chu's family and Zhang Chu's aunt's family, but now they have reversed.
Zhang Chu and Aunt Zhang Chu's family is much better than the two big families, and their lives are getting more and more prosperous, which makes the two big families very uncomfortable.
However, they are stronger than the two small ones in some aspects, such as Zhang Chu's family, not a single college student. And my aunt's family has a doctor, who studied medicine, and also went abroad for further study. Now I work in Chengdu, and my wife, house, car, and hospital are all covered.
The second aunt's family graduated from a normal university, and after becoming a teacher, she went to work as a police officer. When I was a child, several relatives were always comparing whose children's grades were better, and Zhang Chu was the most awesome existence at that time, and he originally had the opportunity to go to a key university.
As a result, I didn't have the money to study, and I didn't even finish high school. Then there is the aunt's house, He Ming wasted his opportunity to go to college, and only his sister was left. It's no problem for that girl to get into an average university, but there's no hope for a heavy book.
These are all things in the past, and compared to them, the two little ones are much more kind. When the conditions at home improve, sometimes I will take care of them. Let them have more extra income, and the relationship between several families has become a lot better in recent years.
However, when Zhang Chu and the others came to pay New Year's greetings this time, they found that his second aunt and his wife did not look good. So many juniors came to pay New Year's greetings, and it didn't make the two of them feel better.
Huang Yan was a little curious and asked Zhang Chu. And Zhang Chu doesn't know this, he is still a little unhappy, all along, Zhang Chu is not very happy with the people in his second aunt's family, so naturally he will not pay attention to these.
However, after Zhang Chu's sister-in-law heard this, he sighed and explained to them what was going on here. It's not a very glorious thing, so naturally I won't say it casually.
"Your cousin is still writing after work and has lost a lot of money. He used to write honestly and made some money. I started to be a little greedy last year, and he will be greedy for some of the income in each issue. ”
As soon as Zhang Chu's brother-in-law said it, Zhang Chu knew what the situation was. Huang Yan didn't understand, she hadn't touched these things, and she couldn't see them, so she didn't know the situation.
To put it bluntly, it is an underground ** color, and Zhang Chu's cousin is an agent point. He still has a master, and he only needs to collect the money of those who want to buy the code in the mine, which number to buy, and then send this data to the family.
He took a cut from the middle, bought a hundred dollars and took seven dollars. If he just does this honestly, he can earn thousands of dollars a month. These people in the mine are very gambling. It's just that this guy is a little greedy and wants to get a handful out of it.
Seeing some unpopular numbers, he ate the money that others bet on. And the popular numbers are thrown to the upper family to get it. In this way, he made a lot more money, and his market was really good at the beginning, and he made more than double the amount in a month.
It's just that some time ago, someone else bought a ** for 20,000 yuan. When this guy saw that the other party bought a very unpopular number, he was a little stunned, and he swallowed the money greedily.
As a result, this ** was out of that issue, and then he was pitted, and he had to pay 800,000 yuan. The kind of buy a separate **, hit is forty times!
The family originally planned to buy a house in the city, but all the money was not enough, and he had to borrow money from others. Aunt Zhang Chu and Zhang Chu's mother's family borrowed hundreds of thousands of yuan from them to repay the account.
And Zhang Chu's cousin, after experiencing this incident, actually took his wife outside to avoid the limelight during the Chinese New Year, and he didn't even dare to ask for a job in the mine. Unbeknownst to him, his parents had borrowed money to help him pay it off.
Zhang Chu really didn't know about this, if he knew, he probably had to do his mother's job, don't lend money to their family.
His cousin is not a thing, and Zhang Chu has always been very unhappy with him.
When I was a child, Zhang Chu's family was poor, and this guy always ridiculed Zhang Chu's house when he went to pay New Year's greetings, and Zhang Chu's family was a pigsty. To be honest, if he didn't have good parents who paved a lot of roads for him, he doesn't know what his life would be like.
Now that I've lost money in this, I don't have any responsibility at all, so I ran away by myself. Such a person, to be honest, it is useless to help him, he will not receive any affection, and it is difficult to say whether the borrowed money will be repaid.
"It's still good for us to have a town, and there were a lot of people who did this kind of stuff before. Now after being caught a few times by the town, the atmosphere is much better, and no one is playing with these things. They make a lot of money every month, and they don't have that much enthusiasm for that. ”
After talking about Zhang Chu's cousin, Zhang Chu's sister-in-law sighed. The poorer the place, the more chaotic it is, and there are always some people who want to get rich by gambling.
In the past, Zhang Chu had this thing in their town, but after Jiang Jing became the leader here, Zhang Chu told him about this problem. Then the town swept this area several times, arrested a group of people, and now the atmosphere here is much better.
This thing is very harmful, and it is easy to get into disputes, after all, it is an underground casino with no guarantees. Zhang Chu had seen a lot of them in his previous life.
What is because others win too much money, and the dealer can't afford to run away directly. There are also some people who owe money to buy codes, and as a result, the money accumulates more and can't afford to pay it back and then there are disputes, and there are many of them. It's normal for a good family to be destroyed.
It's a sad thing, but there are so many people who like to dive into it. Then the more you gamble, the more you lose, and in the end, you lose your family.
