Chapter Seventy-Eight: Uncle Promoted?
The villagers who came to Ling's house to help also stopped their busy work at this moment, and as if to flatter, they took out a few long benches from the house, wiped the floating dust with their sleeves, and put them for Uncle Ling to sit on.
He was not polite, nor did he say a word of thanks, as if it was natural for these people to serve him.
Ling Shan sat in the center, with Uncle Ling sitting on his left hand and Third Uncle Ling sitting on his right.
Aunt Ling, Aunt Ling, and Ling Shan and Ling Hai also sat next to them in turn.
As soon as Uncle Ling sat down, he said in a serious official tone:
"Dad, in fact, when I came back this time, in addition to visiting my mother, there was one more thing I wanted to tell you and my third brother."
"Oh? If there is anything, just say it. ”
Ling Dabo paused and said:
"I want to open a few factories in my hometown. It is funded by the third child, and he also earns his own money. I can use my connections to support him with all my might. If he can do a big business, I can be regarded as a benefit to the people, and it can be regarded as a political achievement. This will also be of great help to me in my future position. When the time comes, the three families will do business, I will be an official, and the two will join forces, and we will be able to build our Ling family into a wealthy family in the entire M County. ”
Ling Shan's body was shocked, and his old eyes trembled a little.
What his son said, he couldn't even think about it before.
Becoming a wealthy family in a county is completely different from dominating in this small mountain village.
Being able to eat in a county town is a great creation for future generations.
But the old Ling Shanfang still asked with some unease:
"Boss, how sure are you of this? What if the third child loses money when he opens a factory? ”
Uncle Ling smiled and said:
"Actually, recently, I just got promoted to one level, and now, in M County, I can rank in the top ten in terms of the weight of my words."
This time, not only Ling Shanfang, but also the relatives in the entire courtyard, who listened to it, wasn't it surprised?
For them, ordinary people, being an official is already majestic enough, not to mention, being able to speak in a county? Uncle Ling, this is already a dragon among people, right?
For a while, the big guys on the spotter seemed to bend their waists for a small part.
"Uncle Ling really gave birth to a good son! It's so capable. ”
"Brother Ling, congratulations on your promotion again."
Aunt Ling and her son Ling Shan are even more proud.
Uncle Ling was promoted, and the two of them were naturally the most polished.
Third Uncle Ling couldn't help but smile, and said with a hint of respect:
"Big brother, you're really getting better and better."
"Hmm."
Uncle Ling nodded with a smile, then looked at Ling Hai and said:
"Ling Hai, this kid is good, whatever you want, you have brains in business, I heard that he has a good relationship with Zhang Yunlong, the richest man in the county and Zhang Baotang's nephew. In the future, it will definitely be of great help to his business path. ”
When Ling Hai heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little angry, and the surrounding villagers also nodded secretly in praise of Ling Hai.
"At a young age, you can have such vision and ability, and you are worthy of being the son of the third child of the Ling family."
"It seems that the third father and son, this is going to be a big boss!"
......
Then, Uncle Ling looked at his son again, pretending to be a little stern.
"Xiaoshan, you have to be closer to your cousin. I am now arranging for you to work at China Merchants Bureau, so that I can support you to the position of director in the future. When the time comes, you and your younger brother will cooperate with each other and take care of each other, and the Ling family will definitely be able to prosper even more. ”
Aunt Ling hurriedly smiled and echoed:
"Don't worry, uncle, Xiaohai and Xiaoshan brothers have a good relationship, just like brothers."
After speaking, she smiled at Ling Shan again:
"Ling Shan, you are going to be a big official in the future, your younger brother is younger than you, if there is anything ignorant, you can bear with me. Turn back to me and say, I'll cure him! ”
Ling Shan learned his father's tone and said with a light smile:
"The third aunt is serious, I have such a good relationship with Xiaohai, how can we be angry between the two of us?"
Aunt Ling's smiling face was about to bloom.
"Look, the children brought out by his uncle are just different. In the end, if you want to be a big official, this cultivation is not comparable to ordinary people. ”
After speaking, she also glanced at Ling Fei, who was playing cards with her cousin, intentionally or unintentionally.
Ling Shan's praised heart was as bright as a flower, although his face tried his best to suppress it, not allowing himself to reveal a smug and stupid expression, but there was still a trace of a smile that could not be hidden at the corner of his mouth.
Father Ling, who was originally helping his wife and sister wash the mutton, also washed his hands, walked over and said with a smile:
"Big brother, congratulations on your promotion again."
Uncle Ling glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes and agreed lightly.
But Aunt Ling immediately said with a yin and yang strange aura:
"Yo, when I first entered the house just now, I didn't see anyone so polite? Now that I heard that my eldest brother had been promoted, I ran over to celebrate. ”
Father Ling's face was a little embarrassed, and Third Uncle Ling pushed his wife and signaled her not to talk too much.
But how could Aunt Ling give up this good opportunity to fight Father Ling?
She looked at Father Ling's hands still stained with mutton fat, and couldn't help but sneer.
"Second child, you used to be a top student at Yenching University, you said you didn't work hard, what are you doing now? What is the difference between a hand full of mutton fat and a butcher on the street? ”
Old Man Ling's face was a little ugly.
Although it is said that Ling's father is average, at least he is also his son, and Aunt Ling Sanjiao damaged her son in front of him, and the old man is still a little uncomfortable.
Ling's mother's temper was even more unpleasant.
She put the mutton in her hand into the basin and walked over to this side.
"Third child, are you majestic?"
Aunt Ling smiled.
"Where, it's not as good as my sister-in-law. You used to be a young lady from a big family in Yanjing, how dare I compare to you as a small person in the countryside? ”
After a pause, she continued:
"Well, this is a little more realistic. The down-and-out phoenix is not as good as the chicken, and when it is down, it is better to be low-key. ”
"Tell me again, believe it or not, I'll tear your mouth apart?"
Ling's mother was about to rush up as she spoke, but was stopped by Ling's father.
It's all a family, and if there is a fuss at this time, the old man may be angry.
It also happened that at this time, there was a sudden sound of a horn at the door.
The next moment, a young man rushed in at the door, and shouted with a look of surprise:
"Uncle Ling, the richest man in the county, Zhang Baotang is here."
When Aunt Ling heard this, her eyes couldn't help but light up.
"It must have been that he was concerned about my son's relationship with his nephew, so he came to visit his mother. Dad, eldest brother and sister-in-law, you sit here first, Xiaohai Dad, Xiaohai, let's go out and pick it up, don't scold the shrew here, reduce your value, and snub the richest man. ”
