Upon seeing the money on the table, Luo Hai asked a few questions and immediately exclaimed excitedly, "I wish my brat was like your Peng Tian! Yesterday, my wife and I discovered that he had stolen a thousand yuan from home."
Originally, Luo Hai thought he should keep his family scandals private, but seeing how much money Peng Tian could earn, how could he not be angry?
Hearing this, Peng Yuhuai and his mother looked at Luo Yonghao in surprise, unable to believe that their child would steal money from their home.
Even if it's 1000 yuan, that's no small sum.
Luo Yonghao, now sober, immediately explained, "I... I borrowed a thousand yuan because I didn't have the capital to do business with Peng Tian. I didn't steal it."
Everyone was surprised.
The parents on both sides exchanged glances and then turned their attention to Peng Tian.
Although he was only in his early twenties, Peng Tian's calm demeanor was like that of someone who would remain unfazed even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of them.
"Yes," he said calmly, his expression composed.
Peng Yuhuai and Luo Hai were both cadres, and when they looked at the money on the table, they immediately had the same thought.
How did you earn the money?
What kind of business do you do?
According to the policy, they were definitely the first to know, and once they knew the economy had opened up, they no longer had the stubborn old ideas they had a few years ago.
Peng Yuhuai asked, "Then tell me, what kind of business did you do to earn this money?"
"Selling leather shoes." That was Luo Yonghao's answer, because he felt it was an opportunity to show off. Talking about making money in business, he immediately felt a sense of accomplishment: "We've only been doing this for a week, and we've already made so much."
Thinking that his parents were still alive, he shrank back and explained, "We originally thought that we needed capital to start a business, and we wanted to expand it a bit before paying you back. We didn't expect you to have already found out."
Luo Hai's expression immediately changed: "You little brat, give it back to us! Did you even ask us? Is this what you call borrowing? Have we taught you from childhood to take things without asking?"
Coming from a rural background, these are the things he avoids the most.
I was always looked at with strange eyes, and it wasn't until I became the district head that those strange eyes lessened, but behind my back, many people still say things like I'm from the countryside.
Peng Yuhuai, however, grasped the key point and asked, "You? Us? Who else?"
A bad feeling had already begun to creep into my heart.
Luo Hai was about to express his thoughts when he looked at Peng Tian and pursed his lips. After all, this was someone else's family matter, and it wasn't appropriate for him to interfere.
“That’s right.” Unexpectedly, Peng Tian remained calm and composed, looking up at his father with a fierce and decisive gaze: “Including me, I also took a thousand yuan from you and Mom, plus a few hundred yuan of money I’ve saved over the years. This is the capital I have to do business with Yonghao.”
These words left the four parents completely dumbfounded.
Who would have thought that their own child would secretly take more than two thousand yuan to do business?
But in Peng Tian's heart, he was thinking, why can Ye Beiping do business but they can't? Family background? Education? Courage? Experience?
In every aspect, they are eight hundred times better than this person from the countryside.
This is why Peng Tian was able to remain calm and composed. He believed that his family was no worse than Ye Beiping's. Since Ye Beiping's parents could agree, why couldn't his parents? Was his father, a vice minister, inferior to a rural woman?
Peng Yuhuai was initially shocked by his son's words, but the superior reacted quickly, his expression darkening slightly: "Peng Tian, although the country is now open and everyone can do business, but..."
He paused before continuing.
But what?
Is it true that young people can't do business?
Is it possible to lose money in business?
It seems like nothing can be explained now, but fortunately Luo Hai interjected: "But doing business is something that must be discussed with the family. Although you are adults, you are still children in our eyes. No matter what big decision you make, it should be discussed as a family."
Finally, he smiled and looked at Peng Yuhuai: "Minister Peng, am I right?"
He had a fawning look on his face.
Luo Hai did an excellent job of relieving the leaders' burdens within the system.
Peng Yuhuai coughed twice and nodded: "Your Uncle Luo is right, more than two thousand yuan, how dare you two be so bold?"
Speaking of this, he was somewhat relieved that they discovered it early: "Have you ever thought about what you would do if you lost money?"
Unexpectedly, the next second Luo Yonghao shouted, "If Ye Beiping can do it, why can't we?"
who?
Ye Beiping?
Why is it Ye Beiping again? Who exactly is this Ye Beiping?
This wasn't the first time Peng Yuhuai and his mother had heard this name, but they hadn't paid much attention to it before. This time, however, they suddenly became curious about where this Ye Beiping had come from.
Among his former classmates, Peng's mother searched but couldn't find this person's name, so she slowly shook her head at Peng Yuhuai.
Having worked together for so many years, Peng Yuhuai's mother could tell what he was asking just by looking at his eyes.
Similarly, her husband knew what she meant just by shaking her head.
