If someone were to steal the furniture in his house, they could still sell it for a lot of money.
His small house has been built for almost two years and the glass is still in good condition. No children threw stones at it, so if it breaks, he will have to pay for compensation.
Neighbors are still very supportive. How can there be no affection between people in the same village?
It's normal for everyone to have some quarrels. They came from the same mother, so they should be punished.
These are all small things.
Zhang Yulan sat down and waited for him to scoop up the porridge with a red spoon. After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the two of them went to find the commune director.
When the commune director learned that they were going to pay for road construction, his mouth was almost crooked with smiles.
After repeated confirmation, Zhang Yulan paid the money the next day and signed a contract with him.
The commune director told Village Chief Zhou about this, and Village Chief Zhou was so happy that he laughed his teeth off.
At that moment, everyone was gathered in the threshing ground and asked to carry stones to build the road a week later.
When everyone heard that the Lu family was going to pay, they cheered and thought they would have a good future.
It's fine when the weather is fine, but when it rains, there are mud puddles everywhere, some deep and some shallow. Some of them are so deep that you can't get out once you step in, and your feet and legs get dirty.
You're visiting a relative, but you're too embarrassed to even enter.
Everyone sat under the big tree at the entrance of the village, working on their tasks, chatting away, "The Lu family is so good! Even after getting rich, they haven't forgotten us. Now that this road is built, it will be much more convenient to go to the market in the city. Everywhere we go will be clean."
"When I think about what I said about Zhang Yulan before, I want to slap myself. She's so open-minded. Building this road will cost a lot of money. If it were me, I definitely wouldn't be willing to pay for it. But she gave it to me right away. How many people are as straightforward as her?"
"It's said that the Lu family is getting better and better. Everything they do is good for the development of the whole village. His house is already taken care of by him. Who wants to take it? Don't blame us for turning our backs on him."
"If you ask me, it's all thanks to Lu Jiandang. He returned to the village to farm, and his wife donated a road. She's so capable. Isn't his family looking for workers? I wonder if I can do it?
I am too experienced in farming. My children can’t catch up with me. They are young and can go to the city. We are old and can only make a living in the village. Let me go and ask first.”
"If you want to go, take me with you. I wanted to ask before, but I was embarrassed. Let's go, let's gather some people. I can't do it, but I have a bunch of guys at home, all young and strong."
"Come on, let's go together. I also want to find a job for myself. I don't want to ask for too much, but I can earn ten yuan a month, which is enough to supplement the family income.
That's over a hundred bucks a year, and I can eat a few more pounds of pork."
When they came, Lu Jiandang sat and drank tea, listening to them talking back and forth, but they didn't get to the point.
Lu Jiandang stopped them with his hand and told them his specific requirements.
They were interviewed in a very formal manner and several of them passed. They were asked to start working in a month.
The Lu family has a big business, so they are not worried about not being able to pay wages, so they just wait for work to come in a month.
Some say it's good, while others say it's bad. "His family is already a millionaire, yet he doesn't even bother donating more to build roads to every household in the village. If he wants to do good things, he should just do it together. Don't be so haphazard and have a good reputation but fail to deliver on his promises."
Of course, these words did not reach Lu Jiandang's ears, otherwise, he would have to go to those people and talk to them.
If you have the ability, your family can donate as well, without spending a penny, and that’s what you said.
If you are a man of integrity, you won't go down that path. I want it all, and you are the only one who can decide whether it's good or bad.
No matter who it is, no one will tolerate this kind of thing.
Building the road was a huge project. After the money arrived, everyone worked hard for a whole winter, and before the New Year, the road was finally built to the county town.
Lu Jiandang was happy. He paid for hundreds of pounds of pork, asked the chef to make a good meal, and invited everyone to come and eat.
The name of the Lu family was engraved on the stone slab by the road, indicating that this road was built by their family.
Everyone who passes by will remember the good things about the Lu family, and Lu Jiandang is very satisfied with this.
It was his family who paid for the renovation, so isn't it natural that people should remember it?
How could they waste money? Once they had a good reputation and started growing greenhouse vegetables, they had plenty of people buying from them, which also brought them a lot of benefits.
The next year turned into 1985.
The land and house that Jiang Yan bought in the south can now be sold.
She called Zhang Yulan and, after considering everyone's opinions, decided that each family would keep two sets, and she would be the one to resell the rest.
No one took this matter seriously. They made a lot of money and didn't take the small courtyard over there seriously at all.
Unexpectedly, the money Jiang Yan brought back after his trip made them gasp.
Especially Miao Xiuying, she bought the most besides Lu Li and Jiang Yan.
Looking at the money in the passbook, she pinched Lu Jianguo's thigh.
Lu Jianguo screamed "Ah!" and almost jumped up in pain, wailing, "Why don't you pinch yourself? Are you going to pinch me?"
He was also shocked, but not as much as Miao Xiuying.
This woman is a famous big boss. She makes a little money but still makes such a fuss.
If people saw her, they would say she had never seen the world.
Miao Xiuying was so happy that she almost went crazy. "Look, the eight small courtyards we bought in the south were sold for a total of more than 900,000 yuan. At the beginning, each one was only a little over 1,000 or 2,000 yuan. My God, it was a huge bargain.
I regret not buying another 20 or 30 units. Wouldn't I be sitting back and making a killing now? Oh my god, the market is so hot over there."
During the economic bubble, those who got in at the beginning made a fortune, while those who got in later were trapped.
That's why Jiang Yan asked them to give up the house they had. After all, the money had to be kept in the pocket.
Jiang Yan earned the most. Her land and houses together brought her nearly 10 million yuan in profit.
Lu Li had four or five million, but he was still beating his chest and stamping his feet in regret. No matter how good his vision was, it was not as good as Jiang Yan's.
She predicted in advance that housing prices in the south would rise rapidly and then fall, so she put the brakes on in time.
Jiang Yan did not sell all of it. She kept a few pieces of land as she wanted to build commercial housing.
Others can build in a good location, and she can build too. Why should she give the cake to others?
She could eat it all by herself, so this little bit was not a big deal. She had plenty of money in her space.
If you really make her angry, she can use money to kill you.
The commercial housing project in Beijing has already started. The team is Lu Changtian and Lu Changzheng and others. They are family members, so you can use it with confidence.
She also drew the design drawings, and she wanted to be the first to try it out.
