Chapter 7: Confession

After lunch, after cleaning up the dining table, Qi Zheng and his father had a general chat about things at home, and then asked the two elders to stop working and sit down, he had something to say to them.

Qi Zheng's voice was as slow and orderly as possible, starting from the beginning with his college history, telling them about the situation of the manor, and the situation of the assets that were forced to change hands before graduation.

"Son, are you saying that you started a farm in your sophomore year and then sold it...... This estate is worth five million and you own 90 percent of the shares...... Are these true?" Mom couldn't hide her shock and slowly sorted it out.

She looked at Qi Jiande sitting next to him, Qi Jiande gently rubbed his eyebrows, obviously this matter made him completely speechless for a while, just now he could follow Qi Zheng's every word, and then followed his own response "Hmm......"

Later, it was only when Qi Zheng said that the market value of five million was five million, and he couldn't hide the difficulty of his heart beating and said "Five million, ah......" and never spoke again.

When a person's cognitive acceptance exceeds his original expectations, whether it is a huge surprise or a huge shock, it can make a person look in a trance, similar to the illusory feeling of dreaming.

If it weren't for Qi Zheng sitting at home now, if it weren't for the golden sunlight outside the window that was still dazzling, if it weren't for Qi Zheng's tone being quite well controlled, let people know that what he said was the truth.

Qi Jiande and Zhong Ying can only think that this is a fantasy.

What is the concept of five million now, which is basically equivalent to tens of millions in the future world, a college student who can earn such a huge amount of money just after graduation, no matter what era he is, belongs to the category of gods.

Surprise has never been so close and intense to hit dad and mom.

When the two elders were still thinking about how to prepare a wife for their children in the future, earn a house of money, and lay the foundation for the life of the next generation in the future, all this came too quickly, and happiness caught ordinary little people off guard.

"Old Qi, your son is ...... now It's already five million, oh......" Mom's voice trembled when she said this to Qi Jiande.

Although Qi Zheng only got 4.5 million of them, and with the previous sale of jewelry and the income of the past three years, Qi Zheng already had a net worth of nearly 9 million, but he didn't dare to explain it all, for fear of completely frightening the two elders.

Father Qi Jiande forcibly kept his composure, suppressed his subversive mood and lit a cigarette for himself, thinking that when he joined the party and became the village party secretary, he didn't have the excitement in front of him.

Sit on the sofa, smoke quietly, and let the smoke run through your lungs, bringing a short-term pleasure and balancing the excitement in your heart. I was able to maintain a dialogue with Qi Zheng from time to time before, but the shock brought by this conversation was wave after wave.

Mom was in a daze, and occasionally a sentence would automatically pop up: Xiaozheng, you're not joking, when I heard this, Qi Zheng and Dad were speechless.

Qi Jiande smacked his lips from time to time, and occasionally pinched himself lightly, finally accepting the reality in the face of Qi Zheng's irrefutable explanation. After all, the head of a village, after calming down, he immediately thought about how to spend such a large sum of money, and what is his son's plan in the future?

Dad asked Qi Zheng a specific question again, and Mom sat quietly on the side without saying a word.

But Qi Jiande straightened out everything, and said to his mother with a smile: "Don't talk about it, I have figured it out, it's a good thing to have money!"

Qi Jiande turned his head and asked Qi Zheng, "Then do you have any plans in the future?" He knew that his eldest son had the right idea since he was a child, and looking at the way he went home on a special trip, it was definitely not just to explain this matter, there should be something else serious.

"Dad, I have an entrepreneurial team at the university!" Qi Zheng paused and said, "After the sale of the manor, we plan to return to our hometown to start a new business, and this time when we come back, I think we should do something for the village." ”

"Okay, okay, you've made a fortune, it's a good thing to think of the villagers!" Dad nodded when he heard this, and asked, "Then have you thought about what to do?"

For Qi Jiande, who has been for the development of the village for most of his life, his son's ability to repay the township is the most gratifying thing for him, and Qi Zheng's first reaction with money is not to eat, drink and have fun, which makes him very satisfied. In his heart, if Qi Zheng can return to his hometown to help the development of the township, it can be regarded as his son taking over Lao Tzu's class to some extent.

"I want to build the road leading from the town to the village first, and then think about how to better develop and utilize the various resources in the village after the team gathers. Qi Zheng looked at his father's relieved expression, and said with a smile: "We are inexperienced, I hope Dad can help us take the helm!"

"Well, your dad hasn't seen much of the world, but he just wants to remind you to take the right path. Son, you have such good luck, don't go down the crooked path. As long as you are on the right path, your father will support you in the future. ”

Qi Zheng put away his smile and looked at his father and nodded solemnly.

......

The chat came to an end for the time being, and after Qi Zheng went upstairs to pack his luggage, his mother was still complaining that Qi Jiande easily agreed to Qi Zheng's development in the village. In fact, although my mother is happy that her eldest son can come back to develop and see each other from time to time, she also thinks that he has such great ability and should not be nested in such a remote place.

Qi Jiande ignored her and sat back on the sofa, only to breathe a sigh of relief, "Son...... It's really grown up. After all, it's because we don't have the ability. ”

The emotions mixed with this sentence are complex, there are relief, excitement, relief, and sadness of watching the child grow up vigorously and rapidly, and he seems to be really old.

Thinking of what happened to Qi Zheng, my mother kept silent.

......

After Qi Zheng explained the ins and outs of the matter, he felt a kind of relief from head to toe, like holding his breath under the water for a long time, and finally seeing the glow from the deep sea, and greedily breathing air after coming out of the water.

Qi Zheng felt a little guilty, after all, he had hidden so many things from his parents, although his father and mother basically did not interject in the process of talking to him when he explained, except for the big reaction of his mother at the beginning, the two elders just listened to him quietly throughout the whole process. Qi Zheng explained back and forth, and the voices of his parents gradually became less and less.

If it's 50,000 yuan, my mother can still scold a few words, asking how it came from, saying that he, like Qi Jiande, cares about saving private money, and doesn't use the money to eat and dress well, and supplement the necessary nutrition for study.

If it is 500,000, it may be exaggerated, but it is still within their acceptable range, but naturally it is inevitable to be criticized by their parents.

However, five million, Qi Zheng explained in an orderly manner, how to come over step by step, how he let himself have his current net worth in stages, which really made his father and mother speechless, and now any language in front of him is familiar but unfamiliar Qi Zheng's explanation of the voice is pale and powerless.

They may already have a certain psychological impression of Qi Zheng's maturity and sensibility, but at present, it is obvious that Qi Zheng can no longer be described as mature and sensible.

In terms of social status, he has rapidly grown into an adult. A person who no longer needs them to worry too much about his future and prospects, a person who has changed the existing outlook on life and values of the whole family.

Before that, what they discussed at the dinner table was when Qi Zheng and his school will graduate this year, whether they can find a good job after graduation, whether his first job will fall behind in the fierce social competition, because it will directly affect his future, and his little girlfriend, how will the two adapt to the current changes, and whether they can go on hand in hand.

They all think that the road ahead is very long, and time has passed, and in the blink of an eye, Qi Zheng has five million.

There is a saying in the economics class of Qizheng University: Capital is plundering internally, and war is external.

In modern society, if you control capital, you control the power of wealth.

Therefore, as a father and mother, middle-aged people who have lived for half their lives, are accustomed to seeing many ups and downs in life, and are in a hot and cold society, can better appreciate what kind of energy wealth has.

In the eyes of the wise, the status of wealth may not be higher than the existence of wisdom, knowledge, faith, etc., but in the eyes of most ordinary people, this is the goal of life.

The value of wealth directly determines what class you are in this society, what position you are in, what kind of changes your car can make others' eyes change, and countless people use the banner to proclaim that this is more or less an era of laughing at poverty and not prostitution.

Therefore, the capital that Qi Zheng has now has put him on a fast track that his parents can't imagine. He has begun to have the ability to face more and more cruel social competition and to impact the class that his parents can't see.

If these things he said today may make his parents lose their minds from time to time in the next few days, Qi Zheng can only implicitly blame him for his sin.

......

The days that followed were calm and peaceful.

The two elders have to slowly recover from this shock.

And Qi Zheng likes to stay at home to cultivate, two years ago he arranged a small "three-star spirit gathering array" in the house, although the two elders could not take the initiative to cultivate, but under the nourishment of the aura day and night, the spirit of his parents was significantly improved, and his face looked much younger than the same period in his memory.

Or they may go around the village, and since they went to the county in high school, they have been home less often, and they have fewer opportunities to visit the village. The village has not changed much, with some new dwellings and more tiled houses becoming dilapidated. What is even more strange is people, walking in the village, some elders who have long passed away in their memories will greet them warmly, and Qi Zheng often has to recall it to match the memory, and sometimes it is a little embarrassing.

Of course, with the advent of the information age, the world seems to have become much smaller. Since leaving school, Qi Zheng and Tian Yuwei have become closer, and they will forward text messages to each other when they have nothing to do.

Qi Zheng likes to talk to Tian Yuwei on the phone every day before going to bed, listening to her whispering in her ear about the troubles of going home to face the various banquets of the seven aunts and eight mothers-in-law, Qi Zheng has an inexplicable sense of intimacy. Lying in bed, this intimacy is even greater.

Then Tian Yuwei's lazy voice gradually became quieter, and after saying "good night" to each other, they hung up the phone, and they were peaceful.

Outside the window, the night is still calm and full of stars.
