Chapter 45: Chinese New Year
Duan Zetao didn't know that a conspiracy against him was quietly unfolding. Half a month later is the Spring Festival, he is very happy now, first he bought the Jinfeng electromechanical stock as expected, as expected, rose to more than 24 yuan, he asked Li Mei to help him throw away all the Jinfeng electromechanical, replaced a few stable performance of the fund stocks, and cashed out another million to the card.
He was going to give some money to Li Mei and Ouyang Fang, but they refused to ask for it, Li Mei's family was really not needed, Ouyang Fang said that if he asked for his money, their feelings changed. With so much money all of a sudden, Duan Zetao really didn't know how to spend it, he couldn't be too ostentatious in politics, give it to the family, it is estimated that his mother Zhang Guihua will be stunned, so he can only give it little by little.
Then there is good news from Li Zhi's side, the test data of the soil and citrus samples retrieved come out, the indicators are very ideal, Huiren Group is ready to send a working group down after the New Year, and the investment agreement will be formally signed after a comprehensive inspection, and the first phase of the project is estimated to start in half a year.
And Su Mei also called, saying that Huang Degui regretted it a little after he went back, and asked her to talk softly, Duan Zetao naturally would not be rash, and really pushed the investors out, saying that as long as they came according to the rules, he still welcomed it, and the two sides agreed to sign a cooperation agreement after the New Year, and strive to start construction at the same time when the road repair project begins.
The remaining half a month is busy with some trivial things for the festival, year-end summary, early years to the leader, etc., fortunately, these Liang Wancai are familiar with the road, and they have their own arrangements, Zhong Hanliang on duty for the New Year considered that he was a local, and Duan Zetao usually had heavy work tasks, so he took the initiative to undertake the duty task, so that Duan Zetao could rest assured that he would go back for a peaceful New Year.
Li Mei thought carefully, and helped him prepare the gifts he bought for his family and the New Year's goods, which were almost piled up into a small mountain, Li Mei simply bought a new Audi and packed all the things into it, anyway, Duan Zetao is not bad for money now.
Originally, Li Mei was going to arrange a driver to drive the car back for Duan Zetao, although Duan Zetao did not have a driver's license, he could drive in his previous life, and after getting in the car to get acquainted with it, he drove the car home directly.
It was already the afternoon of the thirtieth lunar month in the village, and it was a very sensational thing to have a car in this remote mountain village, a large group of children chased after Duan Zetao's car butt, Duan Zetao parked the car on the family's grain field, and took out a large bag of candy from the car and threw it to those children before sending them away.
Zhang Guihua heard the movement and went out to take a look, and saw that his son was happy at first, and when he saw the car behind him and the big bags and small bags moving down the things, his face was black, Duan Zetao explained left and right, saying that the car was borrowed from a friend, and he made a little money by speculating in stocks, as for what the stock is, Zhang Guihua didn't understand it for a long time, Duan Zetao had to swear to the sky that he was absolutely not corrupt and bribed to do illegal things, and the money he earned was clean before he coaxed Zhang Guihua to laugh again.
Then Zhang Guihua began to say again, even if the people of the old Duan family starve to death, they must not do anything that violates the law and is embarrassing, and they should not buy so many things lavishly when they make money, and they should save money to marry a daughter-in-law or something like that.
Duan Zetao listened to his mother's broken thoughts, feeling warm and a little big, at this time his sister Duan Xiaoyan and brother-in-law Zhang Dali rushed over with two nieces, Zhang Dali carefully touched the new Audi parked on the field, and sighed: "Xiaotao is really good, this car costs a lot of money, right?" βγ
"I borrowed it from a friend." , Duan Zetao hurriedly took out the Furong King cigarette and opened it for Zhang Dali to smoke, Zhang Dali smacked his lips and said: "I have seen this cigarette in the store in the county, it has to be more than 20 packs, Xiaotao, you are really developed!" But he was reluctant to smoke the cigarette, and kept putting it on his nose and sniffing it in his hand.
Duan Zetao was secretly amused, and took out the clothes and shoes he bought for him and his sister, the clothes and toys he bought for his two nieces and other things from the car, and the sister said angrily why she bought such an expensive thing, but she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes, and the two nieces went to play with their new toys happily.
Many villagers who heard the news rushed over, and shouted outside the door before they entered the door, "Xiao Tao is out now, we are all here to be extravagant... Duan Zetao hurriedly took out a cigarette and a few large bags of candy from the car, and sprinkled them out like water, he went to college thanks to the help of the villagers.
The villagers said a lot of compliments and slowly dispersed, the family began to prepare a reunion dinner, the meal was served, Duan Zetao took out a bottle of Wuliangye and poured wine for his brother-in-law, and prepared drinks for his mother, sister and two nieces.
The dishes are nothing more than some chicken, duck and fish or something, but Duan Zetao felt very warm, and sighed after taking a bite of the dish: "I haven't eaten my mother's dishes for a long time, but the food at home is delicious." Duan Xiaoyan said: "If it's delicious, you often come back, my mother often thinks about you and cries... βγ
Zhang Guihua's eyes were a little red, but she said strongly: "Xiaoyan, don't talk nonsense, Xiaotao is busy with work, as long as you are motivated, my mother will rest assured... βγ
Zhang Dali carefully took a sip of wine and changed the topic: "This wine is so delicious, Xiaotao, what are you doing in the government now?" βγ When they learned that Duan Zetao was now the township chief, the family was so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths, in their opinion, the township chief was a great official.
After the reunion dinner, the family gathered around the charcoal fire for a while, Duan Zetao took out two thick red envelopes to make New Year's money for the two nieces, Duan Xiaoyan opened it and was frightened, there were almost 5,000 yuan in it, "Xiaotao, where did you get so much money, it's too much, I can't ask for it!" βγ
Duan Zetao had no choice but to explain again that he had made a small fortune by speculating in stocks, and said: "It's too hard to make money from farming, sister, you see what good business is done in the countryside, and I will pay for it." βγ
Duan Xiaoyan was embarrassed to say, but her brother-in-law Zhang Dali couldn't help but say that he was going to do coal business with a few friends and send coal to the power plant, Duan Zetao immediately took 30,000 yuan out of his bag and gave it to him, he brought 100,000 yuan in cash back this time, and he was going to give 50,000 yuan to his mother to repair the house.
As soon as Duan Xiaoyan was about to refuse, Duan Zetao said undoubtedly: "Take it!" I'll borrow from you, and it's not enough to ask me again! Zhang Dali glanced at Duan Xiaoyan and took the money.
Sister and they went home, Zhang Guihua was busy cleaning up the house, Duan Zetao took his mobile phone and walked to the harvest field to call the leaders and friends to pay New Year's greetings, first to Sun Xianglong, Zhang Xiaochuan, Chen Daomin, Wang Guodong, Ma Fugui, Zhong Hanliang and others New Year's greetings, Li Zehai and Zhu Feiyang in Beijing also called, and called Tan Hong, Yuan Xidong, Shi Tao and a few others casually.
The call to Ouyang Fang and Li Mei lasted the longest, a full hour, I originally wanted to call Jiang Xiaoxue's house, but I thought about it and put it down, Jiang Zuoliang's agreement to earn 10 million has already been completed, and it is estimated that it will not be a big problem to go to the county level in three years, but he also has the heart to test their relationship, if he can change a person in three years, then he has nothing to say.
This phone call lasted nearly two hours, and the mobile phone was almost out of battery, but this phone still had to be called, no matter how good the relationship is, the relationship will fade if you don't contact it for a long time, and Huaxia is a relationship society, and you are likely to be unable to move an inch without a relationship.
Early the next morning, Duan Zetao followed his mother to the grave mountain to pay a New Year's greeting to his deceased father, this is the custom of his hometown, called to send light to the ancestors, Zhang Guihua recited words in front of the grave, it is nothing more than that his son is out now, you have to bless him more in heaven and so on, Duan Zetao's father left when he was very young, and his memory was very vague, but he still kowtowed a few times seriously.
came back and went to pay New Year's greetings to a few distant relatives, his family's population is relatively thin, and there are not many relatives, Duan Zetao also went to Wang Guodong's house on purpose, and brought a lot of gifts, only saying that he was a friend of Wang Guodong, and Wang Guodong's phone came just after coming out of Wang Guodong's house.
"Zetao, why are you so polite, you just went to the house, and bought so many things, it scared my parents and parents, haha!" , I can hear that Wang Guodong still appreciates it very much.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Duan Zetao proposed to go to see his junior high school homeroom teacher Zhou Guohua, Duan Zetao's family was poor, and he once wanted to drop out of school and go home to farm, Zhou Guohua came to do work several times before he insisted on studying, usually Zhou Guohua often opened a small stove for Duan Zetao in his studies, and often took Duan Zetao home to improve his food, it can be said that Duan Zetao was admitted to Jiangnan University, and Zhou Guohua played a great role.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Zhou is a great benefactor of our family, don't forget to dig wells when you drink water, you can't forget people." , Zhang Guihua hurriedly admonished.
Zhou Guohua's family is in the town middle school in Qili Town, more than ten miles away, Duan Zetao usually has to work and study during the holidays, and he has not been back for several years, and he is also a little excited to set foot on the land of his alma mater again, and he saw Zhou Guohua setting a table in the courtyard from a distance, tutoring his daughter Zhou Lingling's homework.
"Teacher Zhou, I'm here to greet you for the New Year!".
"It's Xiao Tao, you came just in time, Lingling has a problem here that I haven't solved for a long time, and the current high school math problems are too difficult, people are getting old, and the reaction is slow, Lingling, your brother Zetao is a top student of Jiangnan University, you have to learn from him!" , Seeing his proud protΓ©gΓ©, Zhou Guohua was naturally very happy.
Duan Zetao noticed Zhou Lingling on the side, when he was in junior high school in the town middle school, Zhou Lingling was still a yellow-haired girl with pigtails and a blue nose running behind his ass, and in the blink of an eye, she grew into a beautiful woman.
When Zhou Lingling saw Duan Zetao, her fair face couldn't help but turn red, Duan Zetao has always been her idol, and at the age of sixteen, when the girl was pregnant with spring, her heart was popping and jumping like a rabbit, so that Duan Zetao didn't listen much when she taught her to solve the problem.
Zhou Guohua must leave Duan Zetao to eat lunch at home, Duan Zetao hasn't seen the teacher for a long time, so he didn't excuse himself and stayed, Zhou Lingling happily ran forward and back, and stretched out the dishes and chopsticks. "It's been a long time since I've eaten at the teacher's house, it's so fragrant! Thank you for your hard work! Duan Zetao said with emotion while eating a delicious meal.
Zhou Guohua's wife Tian Xiuzhen is a kind and virtuous housewife, and she also likes the studious and motivated Duan Zetao, and said with a smile: "Eat more if it's delicious, Xiao Tao is out of breath now, go to the city to eat a big banquet, and I'm afraid that you won't like the side dishes made by my wife." βγ
"Xiao Tao is not that kind of person, and I don't look at who taught the students, by the way, Xiao Tao, where do you work now?" , Zhou Guohua drank a little wine, his face was full of red light, and he could see that he was happy in his heart.
