The Gu and Lin families were indeed rich in their previous lives, but there were many people who were richer and more powerful than them.
Those of them who caught the first golden wave are naturally no match for those wealthy families with centuries-old foundations.
Who wouldn’t envy a siheyuan?
Once they have money, it will not be their turn at all.
But it’s different now, they have the right time, place and people!
If you don’t buy it now, when will you buy it?
"How about...I go and ask if I can ask for a leave?" Gu Chongshan hesitated.
Qin Fangru raised her hand and slapped him, saying, "If you want to go, then go. Why are you hesitating?
I never saw you love work so much before, how come you are so dedicated to your job now?"
Gu Chongshan touched his forehead which was hurt by the slap, and felt that his wife's ability to beat people had improved.
Don’t let your anger that you just didn’t vent out now be taken out on yourself!
"Isn't this a special situation now? It turns out that I'm working for myself and I can run around as I please.
Now I am working for someone else. If I run away, it would be considered absenteeism.
Absenteeism is a big taboo. If I’m not careful, I’ll lose my job. If I lose my job, I’ll have to live a hard life again!
"Wife, if you don't feel sorry for me, it's fine, but why did you slap me?" he complained.
Qin Fangru rolled her eyes.
She suggested: "Then let the boss take over for a few days. Isn't it possible to have someone cover for the shift at this time?
They've been pretty honest lately, so I'd like to test it out and see if he can work properly during the next few days."
They can't really let these guys stay in the countryside for the rest of their lives, right?
When they really start to make a fortune, others will poke holes in their backs.
When doing business, businessmen also value credibility.
If you have any stain on yourself, people will think twice before cooperating with you.
If they can really climb up the wall, then it would be better to do so.
But if they are a puddle of mud and a hopeless person, then no one will be able to blame them in the future.
"Okay! Let's do it!" Gu Chongshan slammed the table and said.
The noise of slamming the table was so loud that it scared Mao Chenxiang.
Qin Fangru couldn't help but slap him again.
"Can't you be quieter? You scared the child even if you didn't see it!"
Gu Chongshan: Why am I always the one who gets hurt?
Wasn't he just excited and couldn't help but slam the table?
Since the matter had been decided, Gu Chongshan did not delay any longer and immediately found the brothers Gu Zhuoming and Gu Zhuohui.
"Dad, what do you want to talk to us about?" Gu Zhuohui looked at Gu Chongshan expectantly.
He was wondering, could it be that his father was planning to secretly divide some of today's gift money between himself and his elder brother, and use it as their private money?
How can a man not have some private money?
Anyway, he feels bad when he has no money!
Gu Zhuoming, on the other hand, didn't say anything, just waiting for Gu Chongshan to speak.
Because he knew that it would be better for him not to speak, so as to avoid being scolded.
As it turned out, his premonition was correct, and Gu Zhuohui was scolded by Gu Chongshan.
He must find someone else to try the beating he just received again, right?
How can you just let yourself be beaten?
Shouldn't a father and son share the same hardships?
It is not certain whether we should share the blessing or not!
"Dad, why are you scolding me for no reason? I just asked you something. You can't have called me here just to scold me, right?" Gu Zhuohui said aggrievedly.
"What? I can't call you even if it's okay? I just want to connect with you and practice our father-son relationship, right?"
"Okay! Okay! Okay! Whatever you say is right. Is it okay that it's my fault?"
Seeing that Gu Zhuohui finally calmed down, Gu Chongshan's frustration finally subsided.
"Okay, let's get back to the point. I called you over here because I have something to say.
As for me, I'm planning to go on a long trip with your mother, so naturally someone will need to take over this work.
Of course, this taking over is only temporary. When we come back, I will do this job myself.
Now, the question is, which of you two can take my place?"
As soon as he said this, the two brothers' eyes widened at the same time, almost popping out of their heads.
"Dad, are you...not kidding? Are you really going to give the job to one of us brothers?" Gu Zhuohui asked.
Gu Chongshan couldn't help himself and slapped him in the face.
"What do you mean by give? It means temporary replacement! Temporary replacement, do you understand?" he roared.
Gu Zhuoming waited until he had finished venting his anger before asking, "Dad, where are you and Mom going? Is there something unexpected happening at home?"
I don't remember any distant relatives! Why do you suddenly want to go on such a long journey?"
Finally someone said something sensible and knew to care about his parents!
"Don't ask me about that. It's a long trip anyway. The problem now is the work. Who of you two will go?"
Gu Chongshan had no intention of telling them about going to Beijing.
What did you say to do?
There will inevitably be a lot of commotion at that time, it’s better for one or two of them to be alone and no one will know about it!
Save trouble!
Gu Zhuoming suggested, "How about this, my second brother and I draw lots, and whoever draws the right number goes. This will be fairer.
If we give it to one person but not the other, the other person will inevitably feel uncomfortable, which will affect the relationship between us two brothers."
This proposal was approved by Gu Chongshan.
Gu Zhuohui also thought this was acceptable.
He and Gu Zhuoming still have a good relationship as brothers. It would not be worth it if they suddenly had a rift because of work.
Gu Chongshan made the decision and said, "Since you both agree to this proposal, let's draw lots to decide.
But those who didn’t get the chance don’t need to feel disappointed. If I’m busy next time, I’ll just choose someone else.
There will always be a turn, so you can all experience what it's like to go to work, and then you'll have something to strive for."
This note was written by Gu Chongshan himself, and he also cut the paper himself.
When drawing lots, the two brothers drew them at the same time.
The final result was that Gu Zhuoming was selected, so it was decided that Gu Zhuoming would temporarily take over this class.
Although Gu Zhuohui felt a little regretful, he was not angry. He just lamented that he was not lucky enough.
When Qian Duoduo heard that her man was going to work, she was so excited!
She thought that the job was temporary now, and maybe she would give it directly to her man in the future.
In this way, one person from each of the first and second wives happens to be working. Isn't that fair?
Gu Zhuoyuan and Mao Chenxu did not return until the evening. When they came back, they finally did not climb over the wall.
Before they came back, they went to call the third branch of the Gu family, as well as Lin Jiajun and Zhou Yun to come for dinner.
In the middle of the trip, I was pulled aside by a few women to gossip, so I was delayed for some time.
