A month passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Qiang's company has been transferred.
The person who took over had similar experience to Zhou Qiang.
I just resigned from a big company, I am ambitious and want to build a career.
In addition, the gathering of classmates from the Magic City is also over.
There was no pretentiousness or slap in the face.
But, everyone’s topics: career, house, car, wife, children.
Zhou Qiang was considered a good person among his classmates before.
However, after learning that Zhou Qiang's company had been transferred and he was going back to his hometown to raise pigs, everyone was no longer as enthusiastic about Zhou Qiang as before.
Including Zhao Tao, everyone's topic was still about the financial circle. They only said "hehe" to Zhou Qiang's pig raising. Although they didn't directly ridicule him, they didn't have anything nice to say.
After leaving school, the issues everyone considered became more realistic. Zhou Qiang left the magic city and became a "useless" person, so he naturally became much colder towards Zhou Qiang.
Zhou Qiang had already expected this. When he was treating guests to dinner, he didn't serve Lafite from 1982, but only high-quality Fenjiu.
There were a few guys who clamored for red wine, but Zhou Qiang didn't tolerate them and got them drunk with white wine.
No matter how good the relationship is after being classmates for several years, if there is no interest relationship, it will gradually fade away.
In fact, no relationship is set in stone. Perhaps, family love is a relatively stable relationship.
This morning.
Zhou Qiang's family packed up their bags and prepared to go back to their hometown.
"Dad, where are we going?" Zhou Xiaotong has already gone on summer vacation.
"Tongtong, let's go to my grandparents' house." Zhou Qiang was cleaning up and talking to his daughter.
"Do grandparents have chickens at home?"
"Yes, there are not only chickens, but also rabbits and geese."
"Oh, great, I want to play with the bunny."
A family of three, busy cleaning up.
Put the salute in the car and get ready to go.
PARKING LOT.
"Xiaoqiang, I seem to have forgotten to close the window just now. Please take a look again." Zhang Lanzhi was busy just now and only remembered to open the window in the morning and forgot to close it.
"Okay, I'll go up and take a look." Zhou Qiang just closed the window. However, he didn't say anything and went upstairs anyway.
While going upstairs, Zhou Qiang dialed the phone.
He finally took the time to make a phone call.
"Hello, senior brother." Fang Qin's voice sounded on the other side of the phone.
"Xiao Qin, thank you for coming to see me off." Zhou Qiang had already seen Fang Qin nearby.
Fang Qin did not appear, but secretly hid not far away, watching Zhou Qiang leave from a distance.
"Ah? Senior brother, have you seen me?" Fang Qin thought Zhou Qiang didn't see her. She didn't show up because she didn't want to disturb Zhou Qiang and Zhang Lanzhi didn't want to misunderstand him.
"I saw it. You are welcome to visit my hometown from now on. I'll treat you to a 'running pig'."
"Okay" Fang Qin hesitated, "I'd better not go, senior brother, my sister-in-law doesn't like to see me."
Fang Qin and Zhou Qiang had been getting along for a while, and Zhang Lanzhi knew about it. Later, due to work matters, Fang Qin and Zhou Qiang continued to interact.
Zhang Lanzhi therefore had no good feelings towards Fang Qin. Zhou Qiang is often reminded to keep distance from Fang Qin.
"Xiaoqin, I have some money, can you help me manage it?"
"Ah? Senior brother, what do you mean? You want me to help you invest?"
"Yes, I went back to my hometown to raise pigs, and I have too many things to take care of..." Zhou Qiang explained a few words, "Wait a minute, I will transfer the money to you, and you can help me invest. The management fees and other things will be the same as everyone else. "
Fang Qin is an investment manager. Someone will ask Fang Qin to manage money or something.
Zhou Qiang asked Fang Qin to help manage the money, and Fang Qin could charge management fees.
"There won't be any management fees, right?"
"Fang Qin, we brothers will settle the score."
"Brother, I am a girl."
"It's the same." Zhou Qiang hung up the phone and transferred 10 million US dollars to Fang Qin.
Just turned around.
Fang Qin called.
"Brother, you transferred 10 million US dollars?!"
"Not much, don't make a fuss. That's it, I'm leaving." Zhou Qiang said a few words and hung up the phone.
Zhou Qiang drove away.
not far away.
There were tears in Fang Qin's eyes.
"Brother, I didn't expect you to be so rich. I won't give up on you easily." Well, because of money, Zhou Qiang was taken into consideration by Fang Qin again.
Qingjiang Province.
Pingzhou City.
Pingning County.
The climate here is Jiangnan.
Luoxia Village.
A black car drove into a large yard.
Fruits and vegetables are grown in a corner of the yard.
A three-story Chinese-style building, facing south and facing north, with elegant decoration.
In front of the building, there are Zhou Dashi, Liu Ying, Yang Dalin and two neighbors.
Zhou Qiang got out of the car.
"Dad, Mom, we are back."
"Dad, Mom." Zhang Lanzhi greeted, "Tongtong, please call your grandparents."
"grandparents."
"Alas, alas, Xiaoqiang, Lanzhi, Tongtong are back, come on, come in quickly." Zhou Dashi and Liu Ying looked excited.
Zhou Qiang said hello to his neighbor.
"Dalin, why are you here?" Zhou Qiang came back and talked to Yang Dalin on the phone, saying that he would go home first and then talk about investment. This time, Zhou Qiang did not call Dalin "goudan" to his face.
"Brother Qiang, I'm worried." Yang Dalin was worried that Zhou Qiang would not invest. Zhou Yan had talked with Yang Dalin before, saying that Zhou Qiang's investment in Pingning County was too risky and could easily lose money, and she did not want Zhou Qiang to invest.
Yang Dalin also knew that transportation in Pingning County was inconvenient. Many of his previous investments had gone bankrupt, and those that had not gone bankrupt were barely able to survive without making any money.
Therefore, Yang Dalin was worried that Zhou Qiang would "figure it out" and not invest, so he hurried over and finalized Zhou Qiang's investment.
"Don't worry, I said I would invest, and I will definitely invest. The starting capital is 10 million, and we can consider increasing it to 50 million later. You can prepare the project according to this amount." Zhou Qiang patted Yang Dalin on the shoulder and said softly One sentence.
"real?"
"Of course it's true, the money is already prepared."
"Then I'll modify the project plan." Yang Dalin left in a rage.
Zhou Qiang entered the house.
In the room, Zhang Lanzhi, Liu Ying, and Zhou Xiaotong went to the bedroom.
Two neighbors and Zhou Dashi were drinking tea in the living room.
"Xiao Qiang, where is Dalin?" Zhou Dashi asked.
"He has something to do and left." Zhou Qiang sat casually on the sofa and helped pour tea while asking: "Uncle Yang, Uncle Shen, what have you been busy with recently?"
"It's nothing, just busy." The person called Uncle Yang is Yang Dalin's father, Yang Jinshan. The person called Uncle Shen is Shen Peng's father, Shen Guangyao.
"Xiaoqiang, Dalin asked you to invest?" Yang Jinshan asked with a smile. He is a well-rounded man, old, somewhat bald, and well-fed in the Luoxia Mountain area.
"Yes." Zhou Qiang nodded.
"Xiaoqiang, don't listen to Dalin's lies. We in Pingning County can't invest in any project." Yes, Yang Jinshan demolished Yang Dalin as soon as he opened his mouth.
However, Yang Jinshan is telling the truth.
Pingning County has a special geographical environment, with more mountains and less water, and inconvenient transportation.
Although I have always wanted to develop well, I have always been delayed.
"Yes, Xiaoqiang, you can't invest. It's not easy for you to make some money outside, so you can't make it in vain." Shen Guangyao also advised. He is a relatively down-to-earth person. He always talks about one thing and another. He usually works at home when he has nothing to do.
"Uncle Yang, Uncle Shen, I understand. I won't invest casually. I'll do a thorough inspection first." Zhou Qiang said with a smile.
"That's good, but don't lose money and let Lao Zhou trouble me." Yang Jinshan said with a smile.
A few people chatted for a while.
Yang Jinshan and Shen Guangyao left.
They didn't stay to eat.
Liu Ying and Zhang Lanzhi cooked together.
Several people sat around the dining table to eat.
"Xiaoqiang, what do you say to Dalin?" Zhou Dashi asked because he felt that Zhou Qiang would not invest.
"Dad, I want to have a closer look at Dalin." Zhou Qiang's investment was not to make money, but purely to support the construction of his hometown.
"Inspection? What else are you inspecting? You don't know the situation here? You can't do anything, even the real estate will lose money." Zhou Dashi is right. Here in Pingning County, unless you build a small workshop with low cost, small factories, otherwise the others will lose money.
"Dad, I know, but didn't you say there is money to be made in raising pigs?"
"I was just talking casually, do you still take it seriously?"
"Dad, I have already promised Dalin, let's check it out first and then talk about it."
"Alright."
It didn't take long.
Zhou Yan and her husband Zheng Sheng came.
"Brother, sister-in-law, you are back."
"Brother, Dalin's project is unreliable. There is no need to investigate." Zhou Yan objected to Zhou Qiang's investment.
"Yes, brother, all of Dalin's investment projects in the past five years have lost money, and several of them have closed down." Zheng Sheng also talked about Yang Dalin's situation.
What they said was correct.
Zhou Qiang knows it all.
But he's not doing it to make money.
He sucked blood from Chou Country this month and made a lot of money.
He doesn't mind investing and 'losing money' in his hometown.
"I have already promised Dalin. Let's take a look first. If it doesn't work, we won't invest." Zhou Qiang responded and asked: "Zheng Sheng, are you busy with work?"
"I'm busy. There are a lot of things happening every day, but fortunately there are no major criminal cases." Zheng Sheng said casually.
It didn't take long.
"Brother, sister-in-law, come to the city when you have time, and I'll treat you to dinner." Zhou Yan and Zheng Sheng had to leave for something.
"I'll definitely go when I have time." Zhou Qiang agreed.
night.
Shen Peng, his wife and his children, and Yang Dalin and his wife's children came to Zhou Qiang's house.
Zhou Qiang called them to come and get together.
"Brother Qiang, let me toast you." Yang Dalin said.
"Okay." Zhou Qiang drank it all in one gulp.
"Brother Qiang, let me toast you too." Shen Peng also toasted.
"Okay." Zhou Qiang also drank down his drink and asked, "Pengzi, how is business lately?"
"It's okay." Shen Peng didn't say much. He stopped going to school after graduating from junior high school. After that, he has been working hard in society. After getting married, the young couple opened a restaurant and worked from morning to night, suffering a lot. Although they made some money, it was only enough to live in Pingning County. If they went to a big city, the money would be pitiful.
"Brother Qiang, it's about investment." After eating and drinking for a while, Yang Dalin talked about investment again.
"Da Lin, don't cheat Brother Qiang. Which of the projects you have worked on in the past few years has not lost money?" Yes, Shen Peng exposed Yang Dalin's boss in person.
"This." Yang Dalin was speechless. He can indeed make troubles, but the result of the troubles is that all the foreign investment he attracted will accompany him. All the businessmen from other places have left.
"Brother Qiang, you better not invest in Pingning County, you will definitely lose money." Shen Peng advised.
Yang Dalin took a sip of wine and said nothing.
He actually regretted it a bit.
He can induce others to invest.
However, now that Zhou Qiang was attracted, he was suddenly worried that Zhou Qiang would lose money.
He can't cheat his brother like this.
"Brother Qiang, Pengzi is right, you better not invest anymore." Yang Dalin looked depressed.
"Good brother, let's not talk about anything else today. Let's just reminisce about old times when you two were little."
After eating and drinking.
Yang Dalin and Shen Peng drove back to the county seat.
"Dad, Mom, I grabbed some traditional Chinese medicine for you, which can regulate your body." Zhou Qiang said. He wanted to use Chinese medicine to help his parents recuperate.
"What medicine should we take? We are not sick." Zhou Dashi spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Dad, this is good for pharyngitis."
"Can it cure pharyngitis? Let me try it." Zhou Dashi took the traditional Chinese medicine.
"Mom, this is good for your rhinitis. You should try it too."
"Okay, give it a try." Liu Ying agreed directly.
Not long after, I took the Chinese medicine.
Zhou Qiang, Zhang Lanzhi, and Zhou Xiaotong went to the third floor to rest.
Zhou Dashi and Liu Ying are on the second floor.
Weary on the journey.
Zhang Lanzhi fell asleep early.
Zhou Qiang is not sleepy at all.
He took out the green fruit.
Lead to the urgent green light.
Shoot for Zhang Lanzhi, Zhou Xiaotong, Zhou Dashi, Liu Ying.
On the one hand, it clears the hidden wounds on their bodies, and on the other hand, it slightly improves their physique.
Zhou Dashi and Liu Ying are older.
In addition, they endure hardships all year round.
There are many minor physical ailments.
Zhou Dashi had severe pharyngitis and his speech was always hoarse.
In addition, he had injured his legs, which made them uncomfortable when it was windy or rainy.
Liu Ying has allergic rhinitis and her knees often feel uncomfortable.
Zhou Qiang did not cure their diseases at once.
Just make them feel better.
the next day.
"Xiaoqiang, what kind of Chinese medicine is that? I feel my throat feels much better."
"Yes, Xiaoqiang, my nose is much better today."
"As long as it works, that pair of traditional Chinese medicine costs over a thousand yuan, so it's not cheap." Zhou Qiang casually said a high price with only one purpose: he didn't want anyone to come looking for the prescription.
"Is it so expensive?" Zhou Dashi and Liu Ying were shocked.
"Dad, Mom, the medicine I gave you also added wild ginseng, which cost tens of thousands." Zhou Qiang continued to increase the cost, which would save a lot of trouble.
"Xiaoqiang, isn't this too expensive?" Zhou Dashi and Liu Ying were a little worried about money.
"Dad, Mom, we make money just for convenience, not to save money."
A few days later.
At the foot of the mountain.
"Brother Qiang, look, your breeding farm can be built here. You can surround these hills and let's do ecological breeding." Yang Dalin described a beautiful scene to Zhou Qiang.
Zhou Qiang laughed and listened.
He knows that he will definitely lose money if he does this, but, again, it doesn't matter if he supports the construction of his hometown and loses money, since it is all money obtained from the ugly country anyway.
"Then let's get started." Zhou Qiang said casually.
"Huh? Start?"
"Yes, Dalin, let's start construction. However, I don't have time to stare here. I will transfer the money to you, and you will be responsible for the follow-up matters." Zhou Qiang transferred 10 million to Yang Dalin as soon as he spoke.
"What? Brother Qiang, isn't this a bit hasty?"
"It's okay, Dalin. I just want to support the construction of my hometown. No matter what I do, I'll give it a try first. What if I can't pay the compensation?"
"Brother Qiang, thank you!" Yang Dalin looked excited.
"Lanzhi, Tongtong, there is a ten thousand year ice cave here, which was formed naturally. Come and take a look."
"Lanzhi, Tongtong, there is a peach tree here."
"Lanzhi, Tongtong, here it is." Zhou Qiang takes his wife and children around every day.
Sometimes, Zhou Dashi and Liu Ying also accompany them.
"Dad, look, there's a little bee there!"
"Dad, I saw the little rabbit!"
"Grandpa, hurry up, you are the slowest!"
"Grandma, I want that little red flower!"
The laughter and laughter remained in the mountains and forests.
