Just when Yan Bugui was having dinner at Zhou Qiang's house.
Large courtyard.
Yan Jie became a family.
"How is it? Will Zhou Qiang borrow the money? How much interest?" Yan Jiecheng asked Yu Li hurriedly.
"Did you tell our dad that I went to Zhou Qiang's house?" Yu Li asked without answering.
"My mother saw you going out just now and asked you what you were doing. I told you that you went to Zhou Qiang's house to borrow money."
"Our dad also went to Zhou Qiang's house. He wouldn't let me borrow Zhou Qiang's money."
"Not allowed to borrow? Did our dad lower the interest rate?" Yan Jiecheng reacted quickly and guessed what Yan Bugui was thinking.
"Yes, five points."
"Five-cent interest is not bad, it is almost the same as bank interest." Yan Jiecheng thinks this interest is acceptable.
"Is Silly Zhu back?" Yu Li asked.
"I don't know, you should go and have a look." Yan Jiecheng let Yu Li take the lead in everything. He felt embarrassed and didn't want to go.
Yu Li went to Shazhu's house in the middle courtyard.
"Sister Xiaoxia, where are you cooking?"
"Just heat up the food. Zhu Zhu packed it back from the restaurant." Since Sha Zhu and Lou Xiao'e opened the restaurant together, Zhou Xiaoxia basically didn't have to cook dinner.
"Is Brother Zhuzhu here?"
"No, he's still busy in the restaurant. He asked his apprentice to bring these food." Zhou Xiaoxia responded before realizing that Yu Li was here to see Sha Zhu, "Yu Li, are you here to see Zhu Zhu? It will take a few hours for him to come back. The hotel is busier in the evening, so I often can’t leave.”
"so late?"
"Yeah, that's the way it is with restaurants. Although you can make some money, it's quite tiring."
"Sister Xiaoxia, you work first. I'll come over when Brother Zhuzhu comes back."
After a while.
Silly Pillar is back.
There are few guests today.
Came back early.
When Sha Zhu was walking from the front yard to the middle courtyard, Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng stopped Sha Zhu.
"Brother Zhuzi, do you know any chefs?" Yu Li asked straight to the point.
"Chef? What's wrong? Are you going to open a restaurant?"
"Yes, we are planning to open a small restaurant, but we can't find a good chef. I thought you must know the chef, so I came to ask for advice." Yu Li spoke very politely. Since Si Zhu became rich, the people in the courtyard became polite to Si Zhu.
"I do know a lot of cooks, but whether the restaurant you open is big or not, if it's too small, there's no need to hire a cook."
"The restaurant can hold more than ten tables, and there are also several small private rooms."
"It's not too small, okay, I'll ask later." Shazhu directly agreed to go home.
Yan Bugui went home.
He drank a lot and was a little tipsy.
Taking advantage of the cheap wine, he always wanted to drink a few more glasses.
Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng hurriedly came over.
"Dad, we just agreed, five cents profit, right?"
"That's right." Yan Bugui nodded, "But I plan to invest in your hotel. What do you think?"
Yan Bugui went to Zhou Qiang's house and changed his mind.
Zhou Qiang said that opening a restaurant now is a matter of earning more and less, and basically no loss, so Yan Bugui was moved.
"Do you want to buy shares?" Yu Li frowned upon hearing this. She actually didn't want Yan Bugui to buy shares, which would mean that she and Yan Jiecheng were helping Yan Bugui work and make money.
"Yes, I will not only invest 20,000 yuan in shares, but also invest 20,000 yuan. How many shares do you think I should hold?" Yan Bugui chuckled. He planned to borrow 20,000 yuan from Zhou Qiang and invest it in the restaurant until he made money. , and then return it to Zhou Qiang.
He was a free hand, and his calculations were very shrewd.
"Twenty thousand?!" Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li were shocked, "Dad, where did you get so much money?"
At this time, Yu Li finally understood, "Dad, are you borrowing money from Zhou Qiang?"
"Haha." Yan Bugui smiled and did not admit it, "Please tell me about the restaurant in detail. I want to invest 20,000 yuan in shares. Let's talk about the share."
"If it's 20,000, we'll give you 50%."
"Fifty percent is not enough, it's too little."
Yan Bugui's family began to plot against each other.
Wang Meili’s younger siblings, Wang Jiawen, Wang Jiawu, Wang Meiyun, and Wang Meiyan, have all graduated from college and have formal jobs.
They are no longer farmers, they are cadres.
Although it is said that there is no distinction between high and low professions, there are differences in terms of income, medical insurance, etc., and they are very big.
Take hospitalization reimbursement for medical expenses as an example.
Some people are reimbursed at a high rate, while others are reimbursed at a low rate.
There are hierarchical distinctions in many things, and money matters.
Without money, children cannot go to school.
No money, can't afford a house.
No money, can't afford to get married.
No money, can't afford to have children.
If you are rich, you can live in a villa.
If you are rich, you can hire a nanny to work and enjoy yourself.
If you have money, you can boss people around and ask people to run errands.
Having money can allow the next generation to live a free life. They are already in their thirties and forties, and they can still find an eighteen-year-old girlfriend.
If you have money, there are so many things you can do.
At least you won’t seek death because you don’t have money for medical treatment!
Money divides people into high and low.
Different professions have different incomes.
It’s better to keep the gossip to a minimum.
Wang Meili's younger brother and sister saw that Zhou Qiang had made a lot of money in business, and they also wanted to do some business and make some money.
"You also want to do business, right?" Wang Meili called her younger brothers and sisters to her home.
"Yes, eldest sister, I wonder what my brother-in-law said? Can you lend us money?" Wang Jiawen asked.
"First tell me what business you want to do."
"You can do any business, sell clothes, or open a restaurant, you can make money."
"Your brother-in-law said that he can open a Sichuan hot pot restaurant. What do you think?"
"That's okay, but I have to borrow the money from my brother-in-law to open the store."
"As for the money, your brother-in-law has promised to lend it to you. However, he requires you to go to Sichuan first to see what the hot pot is like there. If you want to open an authentic Sichuan hot pot restaurant."
"Are you going to Sichuan again? Just ask a Sichuan cook here, okay?"
"We must go to Sichuan to see it! This is what your brother-in-law requested."
Not long.
The Yan family's restaurant opened.
Since it was the chef introduced by Sha Zhu, the business was pretty good, with a lot of turnover every day and a lot of profit.
Wang Meili's younger brother and sister also opened hot pot restaurants, but instead of one, they opened three hot pot restaurants.
Wang Meili's four younger siblings opened a hot pot restaurant together, and the profits were divided between the four of them.
Zhou Qiang has two younger sisters and a younger brother. The three of them opened a business together, and the profits were divided between the three of them.
Wang Meili opens a business alone, and the profits belong to herself.
In a blink of an eye, it’s 1984.
Large courtyard.
backyard.
Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao became rich because they went to sea.
However, they resell unplanned steel together. Business is not always available, and the income is unstable. Although they can make a lot of money from each transaction, they cannot do business several times a year.
But even so, Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao also made a lot of money, much more than earning a dead salary.
Middle Court.
He Yuzhu is richer.
He and Lou Xiao'e's hotel is very big.
He participates in the sharing every month and makes a lot of money.
At Zhou Qiang's suggestion, He Yuzhu bought several shops and started collecting rent.
forecourt.
What Yan Bugui and Yan Jiecheng do most every day is count money.
Their restaurant business was good and profitable, and even after the two companies were separated, they both made a lot of money.
There are gradually more and more wealthy people in the courtyard.
These changes have affected other families.
Everyone else in the courtyard also wants to do business.
The good thing about this era is that you can't easily lose money if you mess around.
As a result, the income of most residents in the courtyard began to increase.
There are more than 20 households in the courtyard, and nearly 20 households have started business.
More or less, they all made money.
The courtyard as a whole became richer.
There are only a few families, and the families are very poor and have no money to do business.
The Jia family is not doing business.
The three children, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu, are not business material.
On the contrary, the Jia family's life was even more difficult.
Jia Gen, Jia Dang, and Jia Huaihua all have no jobs and are growing old at home.
Although Jia Geng learned to show movies from Xu Damao, Xu Damao offended people in the cinema and was demoted to a ticket inspector.
Jia Gen, Xu Damao's apprentice, was directly fired.
Jia Gen has always been a temporary worker. Xu Damao said that he would help Jia Gen become a regular employee, but he always just talked about it and did not really help Jia Gen.
Jia Geng is unemployed at home, and his partner has also cheated on him.
Qin Huairu is getting older, and Xu Damao is not so enthusiastic about her.
I only look for Qin Huairu occasionally.
Qin Huairu would have benefited a lot from Xu Damao.
After Xu Damao got rich.
Yu Haitang came over.
After Yu Haitang divorced Xu Damao, they never got married, but the men around them changed one after another.
Yu Haitang and Xu Damao often play together recently.
However, they all made a tacit agreement not to mention the remarriage.
This morning.
backyard.
Liu Guangfu was washing dishes in the courtyard.
Liu Guangtian walked over casually.
He was still holding oil cakes in his hand. I just went to buy breakfast.
Liu Guangfu saw Liu Guangtian and asked in a low voice: "Second brother, I heard that my sister-in-law has divided the house?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Liu Guangtian did not admit it. He also looked around, afraid that others would hear him. Probably because he was afraid that his father would hear it in Liu Haizhong.
"Second brother, if you don't want to tell me, I don't bother to ask. I can tell you that I have divided the house. If I don't hide it from you, I will take action tonight."
"move place?"
"Yes, I want to wait until it is quiet at night, when our parents are asleep, then I will move."
Liu Guangtian shook his big head and said, "We have finally decided to get together."
"Really?"
"Really, your sister-in-law also means to move tonight."
"That's just right. Don't tell anyone else."
"OK."
At this time, Liu Haizhong came out of the room.
He took the teacup and the maza and was going to play chess with Yan Bugui in the front yard.
He and Yanbu Guido are considered successful people.
His current income far exceeds that of Yi Zhonghai.
They no longer take Yi Zhonghai to play with them.
Yi Zhonghai also did not do business.
He is too old to bother.
"Dad, you said you had leftovers yesterday, but you didn't buy breakfast for you." Liu Guangtian explained.
Seeing that Liu Haizhong didn't say anything, Liu Guangtian continued, "How about a pancake?"
Liu Haizhong looked at Liu Guangtian with a slightly contemptuous look, with a look of disgust on his face: "You're just hypocritical, if you are filial, just buy it directly and give it to your mother without saying anything. That's called filial piety.
Now, hum, what? Are you afraid that you won't be able to pay your debt to your wife? "These few words from Liu Haizhong were so sinister that they made Liu Guang reluctant to come to Taiwan.
"Forget it, forget it." Liu Guangtian lowered his head and left. He's had enough of it here in the bangs. He wants to leave here.
Liu Haizhong turned his head and looked at Liu Guangfu with contempt. Liu Guangfu smiled awkwardly and had no choice but to leave.
The bangs made a 'cut' sound, "Just buy two pancakes, enough for who to eat, really."
He went to the front yard.
He doesn't care about pancakes.
Another day, he asked the second aunt to buy two fried cakes, eat one and throw the other away.
I also bought two bowls of tofu, eat one bowl and pour another bowl.
night.
Everyone in the courtyard was asleep.
Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu began to take action.
"Slow down!"
"Give me a hand, be careful of bumps!"
They called a small truck and a tricycle and moved away quietly, like thieves.
They didn't even disturb Liu Haizhong.
Early the next morning.
Liu Haizhong took a towel and a washbasin and came out to wash up, only to find that the two earthquake sheds outside the door were empty, no one was there, and there was no furniture. Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu had moved out.
"Baby mother, baby mother, come out, come out quickly!" Liu Haizhong hurriedly called to the second aunt.
"What's wrong?" The second aunt came out and asked.
"Look, see for yourself. This is what your trusted son did." Liu Haizhong put the responsibility on the second aunt.
The second aunt didn't care about anything else and hurriedly looked for the gas stove, but couldn't find it. "I, where is my gas stove? My gas stove!" The second aunt fainted in anger.
"Come quickly, help!" Liu Haizhong shouted hurriedly.
Xu Damao heard the noise and came out with Yu Haitang. They have not remarried yet.
"What's wrong, second uncle?"
"Your second aunt has fainted, call an ambulance!"
"I'll call right away." Xu Damao hurried back to the house to make a call. His house already has a landline phone installed.
After a while.
The ambulance took away the second aunt and Liu Haizhong.
Yi Zhonghai, Yan Bugui, Qin Huairu, and Xu Damao all presented it to them at the gate.
Yi Zhonghai felt that Xu Damao performed well this time, so he praised him: "Xu Damao, okay, I really did something good this time."
Xu Damao was disgusted by these words, "Master, what do you mean by this? You are the only one who knows how to do human affairs, right?"
"Xu Damao, why can't you hear the good words? Didn't this man praise you?" Qin Huairu helped Yi Zhonghai speak, "If you hadn't called, would the car have arrived in such a timely manner?"
"I really didn't hear it. It sounded worse than swearing." Xu Damao went back with a depressed look. Yu Haitang was still waiting for him in the room.
"Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu are so outrageous." Yan Bugui said.
"That's outrageous. But, Lao Yan, I'm worried about Lao Liu, and I'm also worried about you. Can you be sure that your child can support you in your old age?"
The third aunt took over and said: "First Master, you don't have to worry about this. My children, they have their own plans, but they can't do such inhuman things."
"I hope so." Yi Zhonghai went home.
The second aunt suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and needed to be hospitalized for a few days.
Liu Haizhong went home to live.
He can't cook.
Yi Zhonghai wants Shazhu to help cook for Liu Haizhong.
Silly Zhu still remembers Liu Haizhong’s grudge and doesn’t want to cook.
However, under Yi Zhonghai's persuasion, Shazhu agreed without persisting for long.
However, Shazhu agreed to cook, but Liu Haizhong was not happy to eat Shazhu's food.
At this time, Liu Haizhong had already made money. He would rather spend money to eat in restaurants outside than eat the food cooked by Sha Zhu.
After all, Liu Haizhong and Shazhu have a grudge, and the two of them cannot deal with each other.
Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai stopped meddling in other people's affairs.
A few days later.
The second aunt was discharged from the hospital.
She has the sequelae of a cerebral hemorrhage and is not in good health. Not only can she not cook, she also needs to resume exercise.
Liu Haicheng waited for several days, but none of his three sons came back. He had no choice but to hire a nanny to cook. He also dismantled the earthquake shelter and got some rehabilitation equipment for the second aunt to exercise.
Fortunately, Liu Haizhong made some money.
If you don’t have money, I’m afraid life will be difficult.
If parents are unkind, children will inevitably be unfilial.
Liu Haizhong would either hit or scold his son for no reason.
Now, there is a big gap.
Liu Haizhong and the second aunt are getting old, and they need someone to take care of them, even if it's just a bowl or two of rice, but now they don't have a son to come back to do it.
Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu must have grievances against Liu Haizhong and the second aunt, and they are not small.
Liu Guangqi, Liu Haizhong's most respected eldest son, was the most unfilial.
Liu Haizhong and the second aunt were the best to him.
But after Liu Guangqi got married, he never came back.
More decisive than a married daughter.
It seemed that Liu Haizhong was Liu Guangqi's enemy and would never have any contact with him for the rest of his life.
Liu Haizhong's old age was not so good.
I'm afraid it's hard to say whether Yan Bugui will become more famous in the future, because he has no family ties because of his calculations.
