Chapter 34 New Year



After Zhang Qing got out of the car, his eyes were immediately drawn to Zhang Long's Lamborghini.

However, his reputation within his own family is not very good now, especially since his two uncles both look down on him because of this incident.

So when I saw a few people warming themselves by the fire, I didn't join them.

Strictly speaking, he was actually quite talented. He went to Haizhou penniless and made his fortune there in just a few years, even buying two houses.

It's just that I didn't put my mind to the right thing, and also, the money in the financial sector was indeed quick to come in a few years ago.

He took advantage of his job at the bank to become familiar with the policies of various commercial banks, and specialized in providing loans to small factory owners who were short of money, earning brokerage fees in the process.

Originally, he had no reason to cheat his brother out of money. However, a few years ago, he mortgaged his house to the bank and used the money to speculate in stocks. At first, he made a lot of money, but the situation in the stock market is something everyone knows.

In 2013, his stocks were completely trapped, and his bank loan was about to expire. If he couldn't repay it, he would not only lose his house, but also his job.

So he set his sights on Jun, who was working in Shanghai, and borrowed 500,000 yuan from him under the pretext of investment.

The money wasn't returned to him until the end of 2015, meaning that the 500,000 yuan was taken for free for more than two years without any interest.

Because this money was taken from his private savings account. He originally wanted to earn some interest, and he also borrowed nearly 200,000 yuan from his credit card.

I didn't see a single penny of interest, and I even had to pay a large sum of interest out of my own pocket.

As an accountant, Jun never expected to be the one who gets pecked in the eye while hunting geese all day long. He had never felt so frustrated before.

At this moment, Zhang Kang's sister-in-law, Li Shuyuan, quietly nudged him with her hand, signaling to invite Zhang Long and his brother to drink together that evening.

Zhang Hu was just an afterthought; after all, he had a wealthy older brother.

"Ah Long, it's been a long time since we brothers have seen each other. It's been seven years since you went to join the army. Come over to my house for a drink tonight."

Zhang Kang truly lives up to his reputation as someone who works within the system; his words carry two meanings.

One reason was that when he joined the army, he was too thin, so he used his second uncle's connections. The head of the People's Armed Forces Department in their county was his second uncle's classmate.

He nodded and laughed heartily.

"No problem, Jun-ge, Kang-ge, then you'd better be prepared to lie down today."

When he got home, he put the few bottles of red wine he had taken from the car on the table. They weren't particularly good wines; they were just some boutique wines from domestic wineries that Xiao Xiao had asked someone to buy for him.

Xiao Xiao is such a useful tool; he's decided to give her a raise when he goes back next year.

The New Year's Eve dinner was certainly very sumptuous. Zhang Long tasted every dish and then gave his father a thumbs up.

He himself only knows how to cook instant noodles. In Shenzhen, he spends most of his time eating out or ordering takeout.

There's no need for all that trouble. Once Da Mei arrives, she'll handle everything.

So he didn't need to lift a finger. The only thing he didn't like was that his dad cooked the fish without scaling it, which made him feel very uncomfortable eating it.

Then the family raised their glasses to celebrate this year of reunion.

About twenty minutes after we started eating, Jun came over for a visit and first toasted his parents.

"Fifth Uncle, Fifth Aunt, Ah Long, Ah Hu, Happy New Year!"

He then downed the drink in his glass.

......

The drinking session lasted until around 8 p.m., when Zhang Long finally returned to his room, somewhat drunk.

Tonight's performance was absolutely phenomenal; he drank over two jin (1 catties) of baijiu (Chinese liquor) all by himself.

My second uncle is a little better off, after all, he is an elder, but his two sons, Jun and Kang, have already collapsed, and his younger brother Afu, who was called over to keep him company, is almost done for too.

Ah Fu was purely an accident. He originally wanted to share the firepower, but he underestimated our fighting strength. After drinking two small cups of baijiu, he almost couldn't take it anymore.

In the end, it was Zhang Hu, who was watching the show with Afu, who made a few phone calls and called a few of his buddies to come and help carry it upstairs.

He felt a little better after taking a hot shower.

Take out your phone, edit the messages according to the closeness or distance of the relationship, and send them out as soon as the time comes.

Of course, important relationships definitely require phone calls, but he's not making them now; he'll call them tomorrow.

As soon as the live stream started, more than 3,000 people flooded in. Seeing Zhang Long's condition, the viewers knew that he must have drunk a lot tonight.

Brothers, today is Lunar New Year's Eve. I wish you all a successful year ahead, a happy family, and all your wishes fulfilled.

After a brief opening, he also pointed out the main point of the day: tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and according to their custom, they do not distribute wealth.

Today I've decided to randomly select a few lucky viewers as a New Year's red envelope.

Just type "Brother Long, you're so handsome" in the chat.

You guys shouldn't send any more gifts; after all, you don't earn money as easily as I do.

Just as he was working in the background, the entire live stream exploded. Gifts started flooding the screen, and a barrage of blessings appeared in the chat.

The main characteristic of today's young people is rebellion, and it's also the Lunar New Year, plus they have money in their pockets.

As the live stream's popularity soared, more people noticed it and joined.

His live stream quickly garnered over 500,000 views. Based on the current Shark platform's 10:1 conversion rate for viewership, his live stream must have at least 50,000 active viewers.

This is also a remarkable achievement, considering he has only been live streaming for a few days.

No wonder 2016 was called the first year of live streaming, with major capital flowing into the field and various live streaming platforms emerging one after another.

This money is too easy to make!

Zhang Long was also surprised by this unexpected joy, so he explained the rules of the live stream to the viewers who had just entered.

Those who don't like his style can leave; there's no pressure. Anyone who causes trouble will be banned from speaking.

After listening to Zhang Long's words, nearly half of the viewers left the live stream, which made him very satisfied.

The newcomers who hadn't left started sending messages in the chat asking what kind of live stream this was.

Zhang Long was very satisfied to see a group of veteran fans explaining things to newcomers.

So, with a wave of his hand, he added ten more raffle spots for today.

The only requirement is to follow the streamer and then post a comment saying "Brother Long is so handsome."

The live stream continued until ten minutes before midnight.

The main reason is that these viewers are so enthusiastic. They saw that the streamer was actually doing a giveaway, and there wasn't much unnecessary chatter. They recharged and moved on to the next one, which was quick and efficient.

Unlike other streamers who are stingy with prize draws and impose various restrictions, and whose winners are usually those who gave the most gifts.
