Chapter 374: The Muddy Can't Support the Wall

Oriental Fishing Village. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The second floor is divided into a total of 18 private rooms, both large and small.

The largest of them is the Ruyi Hall, which is about 30 square meters.

At this moment, the Ruyi Hall was overcrowded, a large table was full of people, not to mention, the two small tables next to the table were also full of people.

Li Chengyuan actually didn't invite so many people, although he wanted to share his joy with everyone, but it didn't reach the point of publicity.

This time he opened, he called a few acquaintances, and there were only five or six people in total.

I don't know who spread the news, they came and went, and finally they all came, adults and children, a total of more than 30 people.

After a while, Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang settled everyone down and beckoned everyone to drink tea and eat snacks.

After chatting a few words, a vendor who had a good relationship with Li Chengyuan before asked: "Lao Li, opening such a big hotel in the provincial capital doesn't cost much money, right?"

Li Chengyuan said happily: "It's okay, it's okay, that's it." ā€

Seeing that Li Chengyuan didn't say it directly, the other party guessed again: "Lao Li, to be honest, did you spend a million?"

As soon as they heard a million, the other people's ears were pricked up, and their eyes couldn't help but show envy.

The Li family is really developed now, and the son of the old Li family can do business, and Li Chengyuan and his family actually opened a restaurant in the provincial capital, and they can sit at home and collect money in the future.

Seeing the other party's speculation, Li Chengyuan didn't say much, and said perfunctorily: "It's almost." ā€

In fact, the hotel spent more than 1 million yuan on decoration alone, plus another 3 million yuan to buy a shop and some other expenses, a total of almost 5 million.

However, the wealth is not exposed, and it is useless to say so much to outsiders.

Seeing that Li Chengyuan didn't say it directly, although everyone was a little disappointed, they were still envious in their hearts, even if it was one million, it was a small amount.

One million is not enough for Li Dong and Xu Shengzhe to buy a car.

But for them, one million can buy five houses in the county, and these people may not be able to afford a house in the county after working for a lifetime.

Just when Li Chengyuan was chatting and farting with the men, Chen Jing also dragged Li Lan to Cao Fang and smiled at Cao Fang: "Sister Fang, Xiaolan didn't come to her brother?"

Cao Fang smiled reluctantly: "It's not here yet, Dongzi is busy, and he will probably have to wait." ā€

To say that the biggest headache for Cao Fang today is Chen Jing's mother and daughter, in fact, Cao Fang and Li Chengyuan really didn't inform Chen Jing this time.

I don't know where Chen Jing knew the news, so she came to Pingchuan with Li Lan.

After all, it was a happy event, and Li Lan was also here, so Cao Fang couldn't say anything.

If it is left on the usual days, it will be forgotten, but Li Nanming and Li Qing are also here today, which is a little embarrassing.

Cao Fang was now cautiously staring at a few people, afraid that they would make a fuss on the spot regardless of the occasion.

Fortunately, Chen Jing and Li Nanming were both restrained, and Li Chengyuan's family was different from the past, although the two sides saw each other, they did not speak and communicate, which made Cao Fang breathe a sigh of relief.

Cao Fang was talking with Chen Jing, and Li Qing, who was sitting on the side of the door, suddenly shouted, "Dongzi, you are here." ā€

Li Dong nodded, glanced at the private room again, and finally greeted with a smile: "Everyone has arrived, it's a little busy in the morning, and it's late." ā€

"It's okay, it's okay, you're busy, we just have your parents to greet you. ā€

"That's it, Dongzi, you are a person who does big things now, you can get busy when you have something, don't delay for us. ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

Everyone greeted Li Dong one after another, regardless of seniority, and they all stood up one after another.

Li Dong was a little uncomfortable when he saw this, and after a few polite words with everyone, he said to Cao Fang: "Mom, then you greet your uncles and uncles above, and I'll go down and have a look." ā€

Cao Fang hurriedly said: "Okay, we can do it if we have it above, you can go down." ā€

Li Dong smiled, chatted with everyone a few more words, and prepared to go downstairs out of the private room.

Chen Jing next to her suddenly said: "Xiaolan and her brother, it just so happens that Xiaolan hasn't been here either, let her go down with you to have a look?"

Li Dong glanced at her, looked at Li Lan again, nodded and said, "Cheng, let Xiaolan follow me." ā€

Chen Jing's face was happy when she heard this, and she pushed Li Lan, Li Lan walked to Li Dong with her head down, Li Dong rubbed her head and said, "Go, go down with me." ā€

After speaking, he didn't look at Chen Jing again, and took Li Lan downstairs together.

Li Nanming on the side pursed his lips, seeing that everyone was filming Li Chengyuan and his wife's sycophants, no one took care of him, he was a little bored, and after thinking about it, he followed out of the private room.

Li Qing beside him pulled him and didn't hold him, and he was worried that Li Nanming would cause trouble, so he hurriedly followed.

……

Out of the private room, Li Dong exhaled softly.

Originally, he was going to entertain relatives and friends who came, but just now everyone was too warm and polite, Li Dong couldn't stand it, and he was too lazy to treat him, so he walked out.

Glancing at Li Lan, who was looking around behind him, Li Dong asked, "Today's holiday?"

Li Lan whispered: "No, there is no holiday on June 1st, I have asked for leave." ā€

Li Dong didn't need to guess to know that it was a good thing that Chen Jing did, she was embarrassed to come over alone, so she naturally had to bring Li Lan with her.

Li Dong didn't bother to talk about Chen Jing, although Chen Jing was a little more utilitarian, he was not stupid.

Li Dong heard Cao Fang say it last time, the small convenience store in Dongping was handed over to Chen Jing to star, this little half a year has not been less, every month Chen Jing has called the money on time, and her hands and feet are clean, and Li Lan is much better now, this is about the same, Li Dong can't ask the other party to change too much.

asked Li Lan a few more words about her studies, Li Lan was in the third year of junior high school in the second half of the year, and now her grades in school are not bad, and it seems that there is hope in one.

Li Dong said a few words of encouragement, and the two of them had already gone downstairs.

Li Dong didn't go out either, and found a table on the side of the glass wall in the hall and sat down, ready to rest.

As a result, as soon as he sat down, he saw Li Nanming swaying towards him.

As soon as he saw Li Nanming, Li Dong's eyes suddenly showed a look of disgust.

If you want to say who he doesn't like the most now, there is no one else except Li Nanming, if he hadn't met Li Nanming at the opening of the hotel today, Li Dong wouldn't want to deal with him when he usually sees him.

The mud can't support the wall, it's Li Nanming!

The last time Qingming went home, Li Nanming said that he wanted to open a supermarket, and at first he was preparing to join Li Dong's distant place.

Later, Li Dong didn't agree, but he also gave Li Nanming a chance.

If Li Nanming opens a supermarket, he can get the goods from afar, the cost price, and he won't earn a penny from afar.

If you are a diligent and flexible mind, you can turn around and open a small supermarket, and you dare not say that you are rich and expensive, and there is really no big problem for a lifetime of worry-free.

But Li Nanming was very angry, and in the end he didn't do it.

For this kind of person, Li Dong is the most disdainful, and he has a bad relationship with him, but after such a trouble, Li Dong looks down on this guy even more.

Unless this guy is about to starve to death on the street one day, Li Dong should not know this person.

The limbs are not diligent, the grains are not divided, and the likes and dislikes of hard work, these words are not wrong when applied to Li Nanming, Li Dong is really too lazy to pay attention to him.

Li Nanming didn't have this consciousness, walked to Li Dong's table, and saw Li Lan sitting opposite Li Dong, Li Nanming frowned and said, "Let Jean, didn't you see me coming?"

When Li Lan heard this, she hurriedly prepared to get up.

Li Dong snorted: "Sit down!"

After speaking, he stared at Li Nanming and said, "What is the fuss? Who do you want to let me sit?"

Li Nanming's face changed slightly, and then he said, "Just kidding, Dongzi, I have something I want to discuss with you." ā€

"I don't have time, let's get back to it. ā€

Li Dong didn't even bother to be perfunctory, and directly refused.

Li Nanming's face turned red as soon as he brushed the ground, and finally turned from red to blue, and said with a blue face: "Dongzi, I'm also your cousin, and I won't give me any face? Your parents' hotel opened, and I rushed all the way to Pingchuan, that's how you entertained me? It's a little money, and you don't recognize people, right?"

Li Dong glanced at him, frowned, and said: "If you don't have a relationship with me, I will turn my face and deny people, what can you do? I owe you? You said to talk to me, I have to talk to you?"

Li Nanming was half dead in anger, and he was afraid that he would really offend Li Dong, and he would have no chance in the future, so he didn't know what to say when he stayed there for a while.

Fortunately, at this time, Li Qing followed, she also heard some of Li Dong's words just now, and seeing Li Nanming standing there motionless, Li Qing hurriedly said: "Brother, the second uncle and second aunt are calling you upstairs, go over quickly." ā€

Li Nanming exhaled softly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he didn't say anything more, turned around and walked upstairs.

As soon as he left, Li Qing and Li Lan were much more relaxed.

Li Dong doesn't hate Li Qing as much as he used to now, and since Li Chenghui's death, Li Qing has changed a lot.

Seeing that Li Qing was about to leave, Li Dong beckoned: "Sit, I have a few words to tell you." ā€

Li Qing looked a little flattered, and sat down cautiously beside Li Lan.

Li Dong didn't care about her, and asked directly, "I heard that you opened a small convenience store?"

Although Li Qing was a little curious about how Li Dong knew, he still nodded and said, "Hmm." ā€

"Where did the money come from?"

"I asked my mother for 20,000 yuan, borrowed 10,000 yuan from a friend, and rented a storefront for 30,000 yuan, but I haven't done it yet. Li Qing said a little embarrassed.

Li Dong thought for a moment and asked again: "You opened it yourself? Li Nanming didn't pay for it?"

Li Qing was silent.

Li Dong understood, and finally said: "I heard that last time you wanted to find a distant Qingyang store to buy a batch of goods on credit, is there such a thing?"

Li Qing's face suddenly turned red, and Ai Ai said, "That...... Dongzi, I just asked, but your store manager said no, so I didn't ask. ā€

"I'll say hello when I go back, I can supply you with three months' worth of goods in the future, and the payment will be given when your things are sold. But there is an ugly saying ahead, you are you, Li Nanming is Li Nanming, that is a waste, I don't look down on him, your store is your store, if he mixes in with it, you don't take the goods from me in the future. ā€

Li Dong was not afraid of hurting their brother and sister relationship, and helped Li Qing, because Li Dong saw that she was willing to change.

Li Qing used to be rude and willful, with low eyes, but after Li Chenghui's death, Li Qing completely changed as if she were a person, a woman still knows how to support herself, and it is not easy for Li Dong to see her, after all, she is still related by blood, and she can help a little if she can do a little favor.

But Li Nanming, Li Dong was too lazy to say it, and he didn't want to communicate too much with this guy.

Hearing Li Dong say this, Li Qing hurriedly said gratefully: "Dongzi, thank you, don't worry, as soon as the things are sold, I will definitely pay back the payment immediately." I'm not going to interfere with my brother, he has some money on hand now, and he doesn't need my help. ā€

Li Chenghui died and left a lot of family property, but now that Li Nanming is in charge, Li Qing really doesn't want money.

The 20,000 yuan I asked for from Wang Li this time was still the private money that Wang Li had saved before, if there was no way, Li Qing would not have thought about going on credit.

Don't talk about Li Dong, Li Qing is about to die for his big brother.

She opened a convenience store, the smallest kind, she didn't even have the money to hire people, so she wanted to ask for 20,000 yuan from Li Nanming to buy goods, and finally said that she had an IOU, and Li Nanming didn't pull out a dime.

Seeing that the store was open and there was no money to buy goods, Li Qing was about to die, and Li Nanming didn't say anything to help.

Now that Li Dong has helped solve this problem, Li Qing doesn't care if Li Nanming lives or dies, anyway, this guy has money, and he can sit and wait for death for a few years.

Li Dong didn't tell Li Qing much, and after saying this, he let her go upstairs.

Watching Li Qing leave, Li Dong said to Li Lan: "If Li Qing is willing to ease relations with you in the future, then you can do it, if you want to ease, you can relax, and if you don't want to, forget it." Li Nanming forget it, don't deal with him, the province will bring you badly, do you know?"

Li Lan nodded hurriedly, in fact, Li Dong didn't say it, and she didn't want to deal with the Li family brothers and sisters.

Especially Li Nanming, she was scared when she looked at it.

……

At noon, Li Dong accompanied Li Chengyuan and them to have a meal with those in Chenjiawan and the vegetable market.

During the meal, Li Chengfu and Li Dong talked about the ancestral tomb.

Before Li Dong gave 150,000 yuan, the others made up a total of 200,000 yuan to prepare to repair the ancestral tomb.

Now it's been almost two months, and the ancestral tomb has almost been repaired, the money hasn't been spent so much, and there are still more than 20,000 yuan left.

Li Dong naturally didn't look down on this money, so he let Li Chengfu do it himself, and in the end, Li Chengyuan said the same, and Li Chengfu didn't pretend anymore.

20,000 yuan is nothing to Li Dong, and it is not a small amount of money in the countryside.

Since Li Dong didn't want it, they divided it up, and they got back the money they had paid before, which was equivalent to not spending money on repairing the ancestral tomb, so they were naturally willing.

As for the 20,000 yuan that Li Nanming gave out, no one said to return him.

That kid didn't look good, for his 20,000 yuan, Li Chengfu and they went to Qingyang a few times, and finally explained Wang Li, plus Li Chenghui was buried there again, so he got 20,000 yuan.

After wasting so much effort, although there is still some money left, everyone is not ready to give it to him, who made this guy rich and so stingy.

Li Dong didn't care much about these things, and after lunch, he said hello to Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang and left first.

But when he left, there was a small tail beside him, and Chen Jing stuffed Li Lan over again.

Li Dong is not disgusted with Li Lan, plus Li Lan and they will not go back today, just take it with them, anyway, they are not dating with their girlfriends.
