Chapter 53: Chinese New Year's Eve
"Sister-in-law Maohong! I think I can do it, I will invest, and the land resources of the village and the mountains will be shared, what do you think? Chen Weidong said.
"That's definitely okay, the village is equal to nothing, tourist scenic spots, resorts, if all of these are done, for the people in the village, there are very big benefits, even if they don't occupy shares, the people in the village are willing to do it." Sister-in-law said.
"It's just that you have to think about it carefully, if you want to develop scenic spots and resorts, this is not a small investment! And it's a long-term investment, and it's hard to make money in a short period of time. ”
"It's nothing, if it can be developed successfully, it will be better to make money, even if it can't make money, it doesn't matter, just because I'm helping the village to contribute." Chen Weidong shook his head and said indifferently.
"Besides, after it is really developed, it is impossible to lose money, at most it is to make a little more, or give a little less."
"The air here is so good, the scenery on the mountains is not bad, build a resort, those villas will definitely not be sold."
Chen Weidong is still very confident in this, because more than ten years later, there are really developers who have built villas at the foot of the mountain, attracting many wealthy people in the city to buy houses.
And the price is not cheap, twenty or thirty thousand yuan per square meter, many people in the provincial capital come here to buy a house!
"And how much money are you going to invest?" The sister-in-law asked.
"Let's invest 100 million first! I will set up a tourism company and hire professional people to come and take charge of the operation of the tourism company, and as for the number of shares in the village, I will also ask a professional appraisal company to come and evaluate it," Chen Weidong said.
"How much? 100 million? Are you so rich now? The sister-in-law said in shock.
Although the sister-in-law knew that Chen Weidong had developed and become very rich, she didn't dare to think that he had a wealth of hundreds of millions, thinking that he was a multimillionaire at most.
I didn't expect people to invest casually, and it was 100 million.
"100 million can still be taken out." Chen Weidong said with a smile.
……
On the Chinese New Year's Eve, Chen Weidong and his second brother Chen Liguo's family had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.
The second brother and second sister-in-law are both working at construction sites in Fu Province, their son Chen Wenming is in his third year of high school and is about to take the college entrance examination, and his daughter Chen Chen is in his second year of junior high school and is closest to Chen Weidong.
A large family sat around a table, happy, since the parents are gone, there has been no such reunion year for a long time.
"Second brother! Second sister-in-law! Civilization will take the college entrance examination next year, so I don't think you should go out to work anymore, right? Chen Weidong said.
"We don't want to! Isn't there no way? One is in high school, the other is in junior high school, which one doesn't cost money, where does the money come from just farming for them to study? . The second sister-in-law said.
"I also know that it is not easy for you, the money thing is easy to say, next year I plan to invest, build a tourist scenic spot in the back mountain of our village, resorts and the like, you can help me look at the point, you also know the construction industry, don't let people cut corners." Chen Weidong said.
"I'll give you 200,000 a year, okay? When the second sister-in-law is fine, I will help take care of it at home, ventilate, dry the quilt, and clean up the dust. ”
"If I'm at home, I'll definitely do these things without you saying it." The second sister-in-law said.
"In addition, Chen Chen will live in our house in the future, you only have one floor, and it is not convenient to live in two rooms, so let's build the second floor next year!" I can pay you 200,000 yuan first, so that you will have more money. ”
"Then thank you, we are my brother and sister-in-law, and we haven't helped you before, and now I have to touch your light, my sister-in-law used to have a place where I couldn't live with you, and I ask you to forgive me, I know, my sister-in-law did something wrong before, but you also have to be considerate of your sister-in-law, it was really not easy at that time, and it was also helpless, and your second brother didn't have any ability." The second sister-in-law said that her eyes were red, and she wiped her tears with her hands.
"I don't talk about the past, and I don't take those things to heart."
It's actually nothing, it's all forced by poverty, and the second sister-in-law is a rural housewife, even if she wants to be generous, she can't be generous!
So when the parents are still there, it is normal to find a way to take advantage of the parents-in-law and quarrel with the parents-in-law for a few words.
The eldest sons have all started a family, and the resources in the hands of the parents must be close to the younger son who has not yet started a family, which is also a normal thing.
The second brother and sister-in-law had their hands tight, and every time they stretched out their hands to their parents, they said that they would borrow, but they never paid it back.
When Chen Weidong got married, only the old father was left, the new daughter-in-law entered the door, and the father gave a meeting gift of 2,000 yuan, and the second sister-in-law had an opinion after knowing it, and quarreled with her father, saying that their family lacked money to build a house, and when they asked their father for it, his father said that he had no money, and now he has 2,000 yuan to take out.
The father was very angry and said: "You can't be a man without conscience, can I help you less?" Besides, the 2,000 yuan is also the living expenses that Wei Dong usually sends back to me, and it was originally his money. ”
In fact, Chen Weidong was also very angry at the time, thinking that the second sister-in-law was really a bit nonsense.
When they got married, they spent more than 10,000 yuan on their parents, and what era was it, more than 10,000 yuan in 1988 was not comparable to the more than 10,000 yuan now.
After getting married, I didn't talk about it, but I said that I built a house a few years ago, and I borrowed 4,000 yuan from my parents, and I haven't paid it back.
After his father left, he left a deposit of 1,500 yuan, which was stored in the credit union in Chen Weidong's name, and he also confessed before leaving, this money was left to Chen Weidong, Chen Weidong has been sending money to his father on a monthly basis, and before his father left, he learned that his father was sick, and Chen Weidong also sent 2,000 yuan back.
It stands to reason that the 1,500 yuan that his father did not spend should be left to Chen Weidong, and it has nothing to do with his second brother and sister-in-law.
But the second sister-in-law doesn't know, where did she get the news? is making a fuss about half of the money, and is unwilling to pay for the funeral.
Although Chen Weidong was too lazy to fight with them, he was still very unhappy in his heart, after his father left, he took advantage of the Qingming Festival every year to go home to sweep the graves of his parents, and he would not return to his hometown for the New Year.
Right now! Chen Weidong has already let go of these things of Chen Sesame's rotten stocks, after all, they are brothers, and they still have tendons when they break their bones, and if they don't look at their faces, they also have to look at the faces of their two nephews and nieces.
Since I have the ability, I should help or help.
"Second sister-in-law! Don't cry, although I used to be a little angry with you, now I have long forgotten. Jiang Li also persuaded on the side.
"At that time, if you weren't at home and take care of your parents, I wouldn't have a way to work outside to make money with peace of mind." Chen Weidong said.
"Now think about it carefully, although you didn't give any money to your parents, but your parents have a headache and brain fever, if you don't have you by your side to take care of it, it won't work, so you didn't actually take advantage of it, but suffered a loss."
"Dude! Don't say such things, even if you don't have to take care of your parents, Wenming and Chen Chen were still very young at that time, and it was impossible for us to go out to work. Second brother Chen Weiguo said.
"It's just that it's not easy for your sister-in-law, if you want to blame your second brother, you can't blame your second brother for having no ability, if your second sister-in-law does anything inappropriate, you don't have any grudges, your second sister-in-law has followed me for many years, and she has suffered a lot, and there is no way for her to do that."
"That's it! Don't talk about these unhappy things, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, let's talk about some happy things. Chen Weidong said.
"Civilization! The college entrance examination will be taken immediately after the New Year, how are you studying? Are you sure you'll get into a good university? Chen Weidong said to his nephew Chen Wenming.
"He, don't expect to be admitted to a good university, it's good to be admitted to the second book." The second sister-in-law said a little angrily.
"It's good to be able to get two books, if everyone can take one test, how can there be so many books for you to read." Chen Weidong said with a smile.
Of course, Chen Weidong knew what kind of university his nephew could be admitted to, so he was not surprised at all by what his second sister-in-law said.
