Chapter 941: The Nan Family [Asking for a Monthly Pass]
Zhao Mingyang called Cai Qimin and conveyed Wu Zhonghua's words to him, and Cai Qimin asked Zhao Mingyang to drive to pick him up in the afternoon, pick him up in advance, and buy some good ingredients.
Zhao Mingyang wanted to ask Cai Qimin, but it was probably inconvenient to say it on the phone, and it was also possible that someone around him was inconvenient to say, and Zhao Mingyang didn't ask in detail.
In the afternoon class, Zhao Mingyang and the other teachers adjusted the time, he went first, and then drove to pick up Cai Qimin after class.
When he arrived at the school gate, Cai Qimin got in the car directly and asked Zhao Mingyang to go straight to the vegetable market, he knew which vegetables were fresh, this order, the morning market was gone, but he often went to a house to buy, and that one left some fresh for him every day.
There were also some sea goods, which he had sent to Wu Zhonghua's house in advance.
Zhao Mingyang drove and asked curiously, "Senior brother, what does this Nan family mean?"
Zhao Mingyang asked with doubts, Cai Qimin was an old smoking gun, and he didn't ask Zhao Mingyang if he could smoke in the car, so he lit it directly, because he saw that Zhao Mingyang had cigarettes in the armrest box, and it was estimated that it was a backup.
Cai Qimin lit up and took a puff and said, "You really don't know?"
"What don't you know?" Zhao Mingyang asked rhetorically.
"Then you don't know, you don't know, you don't ask, this Nanjia is the Yueqing Nanjia, which is said to have a history of more than 800 years, in fact, it is to find a celebrity as an ancestor, and then recognize the ancestor, Nan Wei is the ancestor of the Nan family, and it is a celebrity recorded in the Northern Song Dynasty.
In fact, the Nan family in various places also said that it was after the Nan Dynasty, just to say that they were after the famous family, but this Nan family, the real strength, belongs to the Yueqing Nan family, because this family has been prosperous for more than a hundred years.
Most of the Nan family members in this area of Yueqing were squires at the earliest, what is a squire?
The gentry class is a unique class in Chinese feudal society, which is mainly composed of a number of influential figures in rural society, such as the imperial examination and the first scholar or the first scholar, the local more educated small and medium-sized landlords, the small and medium-sized officials who have retired or returned to their hometowns or lived in the countryside for a long time to recuperate, and the clan elders. They are similar to the officials and different from the officials, similar to the people and above the people.
Although some of them once held limited power seals, and a very small number of them may have been promoted to the official office, on the whole, they have always been in the position of the Qing faction and the ruling group in feudal society. The various social positions they acquired were typical of the feudal ruling structure in the functioning of its rural social organization.
To put it bluntly, most of the squires are a group of people who are mixed in the region, and the Nan family has a century-old foundation in Yueqing, and you should be no stranger to modern celebrities, there is an old man in Nanhuai.
The Nanjia is mainly both civil and military, a group of people go to business, a group of people do learning, and it is really a combination of chaebol and academic valve.
A hundred years ago, their family had already gone to sea to do business during the Republic of China, saying that they were going to sea to do business, but in fact their assets were transferred.
A group of people who do business have all gone overseas, and a group of people who are engaged in studies have stayed in China, and their families can live and work in peace and contentment at home and abroad and come and go freely, leaving a great channel for their own transfer.
The Nan family is very strong, and has a pivotal position in Wen businessmen, think about it, in the overseas business circle, the Nan family has a status, and in the domestic academic circle, the Nan family still has a status, and their family will continue like this, basically another one or two hundred years will be the same stability.
This group of people from a big family is really a background that you can't imagine, and there are strong connections, I and you, compared with others, are really small, I can say that our current limit may be the threshold of others.
And our teacher Wu Zhonghua is the nephew of the old man who is a scholar in the Nan family, he is our teacher's uncle, and he has always been in contact, understand.
This time, the teacher introduced us to the Nan family, which can ensure that we have a stable word for the next few decades."
Zhao Mingyang nodded, couldn't help shaking his head and smiled: "When I used to watch film and television dramas, I always thought that most of this kind of family of more than 100 years were in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, but I didn't expect that we also have it, senior brother, are there many such families?"
"Let's put it this way, the Ye family and the Chen family in Guangzhou Province are no longer a secret, and most people know about the two families of Nanzhang and Beikong, not much to say, the Rong family in Su Province, and the Qian family in Zhejiang Province in addition to the Nan family, there are really many such families.
northern
In fact, there are not many left, and the Confucian family, due to the ancestral hall culture in the south, there are many families here, but everyone does not pay attention to it, it is they who hide it, and the so-called wealth is not exposed, and these families have also gone out one after another in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, basically overseas.
In the 80s, they were also invited back by an old man one after another to help the construction of their hometown, in fact, some foreign capital is not necessarily foreign capital, but everyone thinks it is foreign capital, but in the strict sense it is also foreign capital, after all, it is not registered and founded in China.
Why do you say that it is not foreign capital, because according to our traditional understanding, who is at the helm, this is whose industry.
For example, many of the richest people in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, including the top 100 people in wealth, are the descendants of the people who went out at the beginning.
For example, Zhejiang businessmen, on the bright side, Jackma has the right to speak, in fact, his right to speak is not as good as the descendants of the Nan family, this surname may not be a family, but the surname makes them all a family, an interest group, just like we surround the boat of Mr. Wu, even if the teacher is not there after a hundred years, we can't break it, if it is broken, we will be scattered, get together, we are a force.
Of course, if you want to talk about popularity, Jack Ma must be more well-known than the current descendants of the Nan family, after all, these big families don't like to be in front of the media much in recent years.
In fact, there is a rule, you may understand it after research, many overseas companies like to use orthography and Thai characters, in fact, it is to take the meaning of Zhengda Guangming and Guotai Min'an.
Rationally, the biggest difference between the century-old family in the East and the century-old family in the West is that there is a sense of family and country, which cannot be changed, because Oriental people regard "home" as extremely important.
The family will be linked to the roots, linked to the origin, especially the better the mix, the more you want to know the ins and outs of your family, don't think that those century-old families and cattle in the West, they all belong to the nouveau riche, and they have not yet understood the longevity of the big family. 「
Zhao Mingyang didn't expect it, there are really so many hundred-year-old families, these families have been prosperous for two hundred years, I really saw something new again, it turned out that I went to sea a hundred years ago, and I was still that powerful group, it turned out that the world has not changed.
Some of the ones who have been pushed out are nothing more than upstarts, and they have only been around for a few decades, and the old famous families can really hide.
"Mingyang, haven't you noticed something?" Cai Qimin said.
Zhao Mingyang drove the car and said, "Senior brother will tell me in detail."
"Haven't you noticed that many professional managers and CEOs hired by some world-class companies are born and raised in China? Why? Because your own people trust your own people, this is the great change of a century, the world stage is about to return to our hands, this change is inextricably linked with the group of people who went out in the early days, why is Europe on good terms with us now?
How many Chinese businessmen are there in Europe? Zhejiang businessmen, Guangdong businessmen, etc., millions of people over there, the whole economic lifeline of this group of people have been caught, this group of businessmen is doing business over there, driving the economy and labor there, if they transfer assets and industries, they can instantly drag down the economy over there.
How do you think the European side can be so honest, there is no way, if you can't beat it, you can join, so we have to follow the trend, we need to walk around with these people."
Zhao Mingyang understands what Cai Qimin means, the next step may be to make international efforts, so many people can't hide, that is, the Eastern and Western families are competing, competing in strength, and each has drawn its own camp, and some members of the big family will come out directly, divided by surname, but what comes out is also a group of people who can show their faces and are suitable for facing media exposure.
In fact, Zhao Mingyang can also see that many foreign companies suddenly recruit a person in China to become the president of a world-class company, so look at it, those foreign companies may have been Chinese, but it was not clear before, but now it is clear that directly recruiting a president, who am I, where do I come from, the capital of the East and the West has begun to compete in the international arena in a real head-on, before the East liked to hide, but now it can't be hidden.
Zhao Mingyang still hasn't seen through some things, and he hasn't seen through the Xu family, the Xu family's vein may not be more than Xu Tiantian's grandfather's family, but Zhao Mingyang only sees this.
This is not to blame Zhao Mingyang, he couldn't get in touch with it at all in his previous life, what Yueqing Nanjia, I don't know that I think you are fictitious, it turns out to be real, but it seems that I haven't understood and touched it at all, this comes from life.
It's just that most people can't accept that the Rothschild family has been prosperous for hundreds of years, especially a group of people who hate the rich, you must know that there are still hundreds of years of prosperity in China, it can really be crazy, it is better not to let them know is good for them.
Zhao Mingyang drove to the vegetable market, Cai Qimin went to buy some ingredients, and then put them in the trunk and asked Zhao Mingyang to drive straight to Wu Zhonghua's house.
On the way, the two chatted about some things again, during which Cai Qimin's words instantly made Zhao Mingyang feel that all this had really been figured out, Cai Qimin said: "Do you think that those powerful people in the past did not know how to distribute wealth and international investment? It's been around since the Silk Road."
Yes, in fact, it has been there for a long time, but no one has paid attention to it, the previous people knew how to hire a dart master, and the employment of family members is also for property protection, China has trade with neighboring countries thousands of years ago, not the Republic of China just started, this is indeed a lot of people's misunderstanding that the Republic of China only went abroad.
It is estimated that when this group of famous families who went out of China went out, it is estimated that they are too low-key.
This time, Zhao Mingyang really started to contact these old and famous families.
It can be regarded as a breakthrough, Wu Zhonghua can be regarded as a thank you, he led Zhao Mingyang into two doors twice, the school door and the famous door, these two doors are a class breakthrough.
When they arrived at Wu Zhonghua's house, Zhao Mingyang and Cai Qimin began to get busy, Cai Qimin is also a good cook, he said that he often cooks at home, he is not because he loves his wife or anything, but he likes to cook, and he can concentrate on one thing in the kitchen.
Zhao Mingyang also likes this feeling, staying alone in the kitchen, completing one thing with a very purpose, and seeing the results quickly, every attempt can be summed up experience.
This time it is mainly the taste of Zhejiang Province, which is actually similar to Shencheng and southern Jiangsu.
Cai Qimin said while cutting the fish fillet, "Mingyang, you haven't found a thing."
"Huh?"
"The heavier the taste, the worse the economy." Cai Qimin said.
Zhao Mingyang thought about it, it seems that it is true, the richer places seem to have relatively light tastes, such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Suzhou and Hangzhou, which really belong to Qingkou.
"Is there a regional advantage?" Zhao Mingyang said.
"Yes, but not much, because Zhejiang Province does not have regional advantages, which is why Zhejiang Province used to walk the streets and alleys a lot, and many regions also have regional advantages, and regional advantages are just the magnified side of these rich areas, but in fact many people make excuses for themselves.
Most of the heavy flavors are those who want to make as many meals as possible with as few dishes as possible, so that they can fill their stomachs without losing the texture and are easy to eat.
Do you see that most high-end restaurants focus on an original flavor and deliciousness, why?
Because it's not just as simple as wanting to fill your stomach, you want more, you want more, you have more desires, you have more desires, then you will inevitably want to get more, so there is no shortcut, you can only choose to do everything you can to get it.
A single desire is nothing more than to eat and drink enough and some physiological needs, this is actually the most basic primitive needs of most creatures, which is also why many people will say that some areas are poorer and poorer, and if you carefully find that there will be some overlap, that is, heavy taste and polygenesis seem to be highly overlapping in many areas.
It's nothing more than that the two desires have not given up and there are no high requirements for the desire, if you get rid of these two desires, it will be terrible, because there will be more desires, such as fishing, tea tasting, but most of them still pursue the most basic desires, or the need to eat and physiological needs, but this requirement has been raised, and it is no longer hungry.
It's about the pursuit of quality, then, this exists
It's a phenomenon that either you change the people around you, or the people around you change you, or you leave.
In a circle, if everyone's ideas are about the same, they can stay together, and the greater the greed of people, they will definitely want everything to be the best, the best school, the best hospital, the best environment, etc., this is the key, not that some people in light areas are economically better and richer, but that people in this area generally do not satisfy the most primitive and simple desires, which is the strongest concentrated group of greed.
If you want to make people have an appetite for light food, it must be to meet the color, flavor and flavor, all of which are indispensable, not only delicious but also good-looking, this is the quality requirement, followed by the choice of mates, in addition to appearance, you must also have knowledge and vision, etc., the requirements of the province are not simply the opposite sex, and you must have a more comprehensive understanding of the appearance and figure.
This is also why some big cities have such a fast pace and so much overtime, and this group of people wants to quickly obtain wealth to realize their greed, such as eating a good meal, buying a good clothes, going on a trip, etc., and he asks too many desires, which are not easy to satisfy."
"Senior brother is right." After Zhao Mingyang responded, he washed all the fruits, some of them were put in fruit bowls, and some were made into fruit platters and fruit salads.
Today, I am going to make ten dishes and two soups, four cold and six hot dishes, and a seafood soup and green vegetable soup.
"That's pretty much it, just two of them." Wu Zhonghua said.
Zhao Mingyang cleaned up the house again and went to buy some potted plants.
At 6:30 p.m., a black Maybach stopped at the door of the old man's house, and two people came down, a middle-aged woman and a young woman, the middle-aged woman wore a white suit, and the young woman wore a shawl and wore a white dress.
The driver took out the gifts brought by the trunk, Zhao Mingyang and Cai Qimin quickly took them and brought them into the house, and the driver quickly drove away, not wanting to stay here for too long and occupy the lane and attract the attention of others.
"Uncle Wu, you're in good health." The middle-aged woman stepped forward and asked Wu Zhonghua.
"Very good, you little girl has grown so big, I saw you graduate from elementary school when you were born, and then you went abroad, I can't even recognize you on the street." Wu Zhonghua looked at the woman with a smile and invited them into the house.
Zhao Mingyang looked at the two women, is this a mother and daughter? It does look alike, the old man won't introduce himself to someone, right?
It is estimated that it is impossible, he knows that he and Xu Tiantian.
Zhao Mingyang and the young woman glanced at each other again, and Zhao Mingyang always felt that this woman gave people a very strange feeling.
