Chapter 154 I can’t keep a low profile anymore
When Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia rode their bicycles back to the village dock, they found it was very lively.
Jiang Xia asked curiously: "What happened?"
"I don't know, let's go check it out."
Zhou Chenglei rode the bicycle to the big banyan tree, stopped, and helped Jiang Xia get off the bicycle.
Jiang Xia took off her straw hat after getting off her bicycle, but it got caught on her hair somehow. She pulled at it but couldn't pull it off.
Zhou Chenglei supported the bicycle, turned around and saw her, and hurried to help her.
Not far away, Zhou Bingqiang was handing out wedding candies and the villagers were congratulating him.
"Congratulations! Today you have become a millionaire and married a daughter-in-law. It's a double happiness!"
Zhou Bingqiang laughed: "Haha, thank you. Come, eat two more wedding candies to get some good luck. Soon you will also be a millionaire, and your son will get married!"
"Congratulations! You have become a millionaire, and your youngest son has married. You can enjoy your life in the future! You don't have to work anymore!"
"Congratulations! All my sons have married! And now I have so much money. I can retire and stop working!"
…
Zhou Bingqiang smiled and distributed candy while saying, "Of course I don't have to work! They just got the marriage certificate and haven't held the wedding yet. I still have to make money to hold the wedding and build a house for him. I have to work for another ten or eight years. These sons are all debt collectors. Come on, eat wedding candy! Eat wedding candy!"
At this time, Zhou's father came to the dock. Today, Zhou's father went to the brick factory to order bricks, and then went to order sand and cement. He rushed to the dock as soon as the steel bars came back.
He saw from a distance that his youngest son was helping his daughter-in-law take off her hat and fix her hair. The two were very intimate, and it was a loving posture that he had never seen before! Zhou's father laughed: Did he find another way to make money during this trip to the city? The sea was rough and the father seemed to hear the sound of gold coins falling.
But the voice was soon interrupted.
As soon as Zhou's father appeared at the dock, he was seen by Zhou Bingqiang.
Zhou Bingqiang quickly came to his side and grabbed a handful of candy for him: "Come on! Eat wedding candy! Eat wedding candy!"
Father Zhou didn't understand why, but he took it anyway: "What wedding candy?"
A villager nearby said, "Today, Bingqiang has two happy events. He got married and became a millionaire. Isn't this the time to give out wedding candy?"
Father Zhou raised his eyebrows, "You've become a millionaire and you've married a daughter-in-law? Congratulations!"
"Yes, that's amazing! A millionaire! The people in the production team said that he will go to the city to attend a commendation meeting! It will even be in the newspapers. Don't you think it's amazing?!"
Father Zhou smiled: "Indeed!"
I wonder what Zhou Bingqiang's expression will be when he sees me on the day of the commendation meeting? The top 10,000-yuan households in the city have prizes. Zhou's father is sure that I have one, but I don't know if Zhou Bingqiang has one, haha! Zhou Bingqiang: "How amazing! It's just a 10,000-yuan household. I heard that there are many 10,000-yuan households in the city this year, more than a hundred in total! How amazing am I? I only gave out wedding candy after Guohua and Wenwan got married."
There are so many households in the city, and he is among these more than 100 households! He has become the richest man in the village, and he is still about a hundred or so people away from being the richest man in the city, hahahaha...
Zhou Bingqiang looked at his father. Is Zhou Chenglei the richest man in the future?
Become a millionaire first!
Marrying a daughter-in-law is indeed a happy event. Zhou's father smiled and asked, "When will we have the wedding wine?"
Zhou Bingqiang smiled and said, "Not so fast, Xiaowan is going to take the college entrance examination. And I am also planning to build them a new house as a wedding house. It won't be too late to get married after the house is built. Getting married will cost too much money. I gave two thousand as a betrothal gift! Building a house will cost a lot of money. You know, I just bought a boat, so how can I have any money? So the house will have to wait until the end of the year. Fortunately, Xiaowan is going to college, so they are not in a hurry to hold a wedding."
Changing the subject, Zhou Bingqiang pretended to be envious and said, "You are the best. You married a good daughter-in-law, and the young ladies in the city are also happy to live in the old house with you. I can't bear it. Of course, I have to provide them with good food and shelter after marrying a good and educated daughter-in-law, so I can't help but build a new house for them as a wedding house! I like to spend money recklessly when I have a lot of money, and I can't help but build one house after another for my son. Unlike you, you are frugal and would rather live in an old house than build a new one."
Who wants to be bald if they have hair? Zhou Bingqiang is mocking his father for not being able to build a house!
Zhou's father's mouth twitched and he was about to say something when a villager ran over and asked, "Yongfu, my wife said you asked me to help you build a new house this morning, right? Did you start construction on the second day of the Chinese New Year? What's the auspicious time?"
Father Zhou smiled and said, "Yes, at eight o'clock in the morning on the second day of August."
"Okay, okay, I get it! I'll be there on time then."
As soon as these words fell, Zhou Bingqiang's expression froze, and the surrounding villagers were shocked: "Yongfu, are you going to build a new house again?"
"So soon? The last one wasn't built for a few years! You're really rich! What kind of house do you want to build? A brick house or a building?"
"Nonsense, the previous ones were all high-rise buildings, how could we possibly build a brick and tile house? It's better to live in an old house than a brick and tile house! Yongfu, how many floors do you plan to build?"
Father Zhou said with a smile: "It was Lei who wanted to build it. I don't have the money to do it. He planned to build two and a half floors."
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Two and a half floors, the villagers were shocked again!
"Bricks are expensive this year, as are sand, steel bars, cement, and labor. Building a two-and-a-half-story house without putting up exterior walls will cost seven or eight thousand, right? If you put up exterior walls, build a yard, and build a kitchen, it won't cost more than ten thousand."
"Yongfu, the production team just asked which family has a ten thousand yuan household. Why didn't you sign up?"
"Yongfu, I found out that you are the richest person in the village! You are a hidden millionaire!"
"Go tell the production team now that there are two millionaires in our village!"
Father Zhou also wanted to keep a low profile, but reality didn't allow it! Who cares, let's have some fun first! Father Zhou smiled so hard that his eyes disappeared, and he couldn't hold back his smile: "No need to go to the production team to sign up, the credit union has already registered."
The villagers were shocked again. Why would the credit union register? It must be because he had deposited tens of thousands of yuan in the credit union that the credit union would register! Someone gave Zhou's father a thumbs up: "The richest man! The richest man in the village!"
"Mr. Zhou, you are amazing. You became a millionaire without saying a word! Congratulations! Double happiness! You built a new house and became a millionaire again!"
Father Zhou laughed and said, "Actually, I don't have any money. I am just taking advantage of A-Lei and his wife. It's their money. It's just that Xiao Xia put my name on the list."
"Alei has become a millionaire at such a young age, amazing! So amazing!"
"Mr. Zhou, you are amazing! Congratulations..."
…
At once, everyone congratulated Zhou's father.
Marrying a daughter-in-law is not as important as building a new house. Whose house is not built with the savings of two or even three generations? How many people cannot earn enough money to buy a house in their lifetime? Therefore, building a house is a bigger happy event than getting married, and everyone went to congratulate Zhou's father! It's amazing. After building one house, he bought another one in town, and now he is preparing to build a two-and-a-half-story house! Two and a half stories is the tallest house in the village. Zhou Bingqiang's house is also two and a half stories, but the whole family lives together.
Father Zhou was the center of attention for a while! Zhou Bingqiang left with a gloomy face and did not even send out wedding candy!
The richest man is bullshit! Have you forgotten that he also has three ships? Three ships are worth more than 10,000 yuan!
