Chapter 409 He Yong came to thank me, and I suddenly came up with a good idea

Considering that I would pick up He Yong later, before getting in the car, I called my brother-in-law and asked him to rush to the Auto City.

After we met up with my brother-in-law at the Auto City, we started choosing cars. My mother held Xiaoyu in her arms and followed Xiaolin to look around, never getting tired of it, while my brother-in-law served as a consultant.

I was too lazy to look. I brought Xiaoyu over and sat in the lounge waiting for them. Finally, Xiaolin ordered a Cayenne.

Then, I asked my brother-in-law to drive the new car back and I went to the high-speed rail station to pick up the guests.

My mother said, "I still need to buy a necklace."

I said, "Let's buy the necklace another day."

After they left, I drove to the high-speed rail station. It was almost four in the afternoon, and it would take half an hour to get there.

There was a traffic jam on the road, and it took me an hour to get there. When I ran to the exit, He Yong saw me from a distance, raised his hands and shouted: "Wanshanhong - Wanshanhong -"

I raised my hand as well. He came over quickly, dragging his suitcase.

Once we were in the car, I said, "You're so kind to take a detour to see me."

"You are our family's true benefactor. In a foreign country, I cried out to heaven and earth but got no response. I was stunned at the time.

Afterward, my relatives kept talking about it, as if it were a dream. One relative even joked that it was just like a TV drama.

There was a group of assassins in front of the protagonist and a cliff behind him. Then a man flew in from the sky, picked up the protagonist, and flew away on the clouds.

"Your relative has read too many Jin Yong novels. But it was fate. Someone invited me to go to the sea that day, and I ran into him when I came back."

"That scene is scary even now when I think about it. I dare not think about it."

"Everyone has a destiny. People read Jin Yong's novels because they hope for miracles to happen in times of despair. This is also a kind of beautiful yearning."

He Yong asked, "You only came back in December. If you weren't traveling, what were you doing?"

If I were a doctor, I could explain this question. I would answer others loudly: I treat people, but I am not a doctor. Then I said:

"My performance at the company is pretty good, so this is a kind of reward, called a vacation-style trip."

"Oh, I see. It takes a long time. It's not like our hurried tours where we visit one place and then rush to the next one."

"Yes, that's too hasty." The two chatted all the way to Sunrise, and he said, "I'll get a room myself."

"Don't worry about these things. Come with me and rest first."

"Is this hotel yours?"

"I work here and have a special house."

He gave me a puzzled look.

After entering 1701, he said, "Suite?"

I nodded, made him some tea, and then explained to him that I was an executive of the Rising Sun Company and that I usually worked and lived here.

But his home is nearby and he rarely sleeps here at night. So, he should sleep in 1701 tonight.

I smiled and said, "There's a bed in the study over there. Don't worry, once someone has slept in it, the waiter will update the bedding in time."

He waved his hands repeatedly: "That's not what I meant. I just came here and asked you to arrange a room. I originally came to thank you, but I'm bothering you..."

I said, "Thanks are unnecessary. In that situation, regardless of whether you are Chinese or foreigners, I would still help you. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."

He Yong said, "When you refused to accept my money, my family felt bad for several months. We are not a family that trades money. Fifty thousand, one hundred thousand, one million or ten million yuan can't buy a life.

That is, we are far away, and we can't help you with other things. This money is our token of appreciation. So this time, I'm giving it to you in person. You must accept it, otherwise, our whole family will be uneasy.

After that, he took out a plastic bag from his suitcase.

When I looked at it, I saw that the tightly tied bundle of banknotes must have at least 100,000 yuan.

I waved my hand to indicate no.

He got angry, put it on the coffee table, and asked, "You think my money is dirty? I earned it honestly. You think I'm ugly and not worthy of being your friend?"

I was stunned for a moment.

I didn't touch the bundle of money. If I said I was rich and didn't care about money, that would be a blow to him. Besides, I didn't know his background.

There is nothing wrong with me accepting the money, but it shows that I am not loyal. He refused the 50,000 yuan at that time, but now he wants more than 50,000 yuan, but I accepted it.

The phone rang, and my brother-in-law said, "Let's celebrate tonight. Come to my restaurant for dinner. All the family members, come. It's my treat."

I waved to Mr. He, indicating that I had to answer the phone first, and walked towards the study, saying, "Why do I need you to treat me?"

"Brother, don't you understand what I mean?"

I laughed and said, "Brother-in-law, you're trying to trick me. Fine, fine, I'll treat you. Please tell Xiaolin that I'm very busy, so she can make the arrangements. I'll come over with my friends later."

Suddenly, an idea came to me. I actually had an idea. Walking out to the outside, I said to He Yong:

"Mr. He, I won't take any money. I helped you, so please do me a favor."

"Can I do you a favor?"

"right."

So, I introduced myself as someone who knows feng shui and fortune-telling. In addition to my work, I also look at land and houses for rich people in my spare time, and give them advice, so I have accumulated some money.

Then I described the changes in my mother's enjoyment of life, saying that she had changed. She liked to brag in front of others and wanted to buy a nice house and a high-end car.

Then he said, "Any local in Guangdong is a multi-millionaire. They don't care about food or clothing. You have been in Guangzhou for many years. You should have friends like this in your life."

He said: "There are many. When I first went to Dongguan, the landlord collected rent with a bunch of keys, and there were dozens of households in one building.

There was no WeChat back then. He carried a ziplock bag to collect cash, and wore sandals and shorts. People who didn't know him thought he was a rag dealer.

I knocked on the coffee table excitedly: "Great, the more acquaintances and friends like this, the better."

He Yong hasn't figured out what I'm going to talk about yet.

I said, "I will arrange for my brother-in-law to accompany my parents to your place. You will stay with them for two days and help me show them how rich people live.

The main thing is to see the locals who dress casually. It makes them realize that wealth is not just about appearances. They are rich but don't care about brand names. They live a very comfortable life.

When the time comes, I will ask you to take care of my food and lodging, and you will have to pay for it. This is your way of thanking me. It is equivalent to me accepting your money."

He said, "This has nothing to do with you taking the money. Just accept it first. When your parents come, I will still give them a good reception."

I frowned and said, "Mr. He, let's not talk about money. When you go back this time, I'll ask them to come in a few days. If it's okay, just say 'yes'. If it's not okay, just say 'no'."

After that, I put the bundle of money into his suitcase.

He was embarrassed for a long time.

I said, "I want my mother to know that there are always richer people out there, and I must learn to live a low-key life."

He said, "Mr. Wan, since you are so straightforward, I will treat them well."

I said, "We cannot charge more than 350 yuan a night for a room. Otherwise, they will think that the wealthy people in Guangdong are just pretending to be frugal and are actually spending money like water.

In that case, it has no educational value at all, and I will only learn bad things from you."

He Yong couldn't help laughing.

I said, "I'm telling you the truth. When you come back, give each of them a red envelope of 1,000 yuan. Any more would hurt them. If you're giving out cigarettes, give them red envelopes of Double Happiness. Am I a straightforward person?"

He Yong said, "You're so straightforward. I'm determined to be your friend."

"Let's go and have dinner together."

Once we got in the car, I specifically reminded him, "Don't tell him I saved your daughter. Just tell him I told you a fortune telling before. You made money by following my instructions, and you came all the way here to thank me."

He looked at me, thinking I was extremely mysterious, and asked, "Can you tell me a fortune?"

"Okay, but it'll be a little later. After dinner, I'll let my brother-in-law accompany you. I have an appointment with someone else. I can't miss it. I will be back to the hotel after nine o'clock in the evening."

He Yong said, "Mr. Wan, you are becoming more and more of a mystery to me."

I smiled and said, "He's a very simple person. Let's talk tonight."

Some friends have suggested that I update more regularly. To make it easier for those who follow the updates, I will explain the following:

Starting tomorrow, I will post one chapter around 9am, one chapter around 1pm, and one chapter around 6pm. If I haven't updated three chapters by 6pm, it means I'm very busy and won't update anymore.
