Chapter 595: Facing a bleak life



"Is it better to have money or not to have money?" Wan Feng asked Zhang Hai a seemingly stupid question.

"You're asking a nonsense question. Of course, it's better to be rich. The fact that people die for money speaks volumes."

"But there's a saying among the people that goes 'Without money, one feels free,' which suggests that being poor isn't such a bad thing. Alas! When people are broke, they have their own worries. And when they are rich, they naturally have their own worries. At this rate of development, Wahou will become a well-known wealthy area in Hongya County within two years. Guess what will happen?"

Zhang Hai pondered for a long time and shook his head: "I can't guess."

"On the bright side, you'll be held up as a model for reform, perhaps even becoming a huge celebrity, invited to give speeches everywhere, living under the spotlight, surrounded by flowers, wine, and beautiful women, much more beautiful than your wife. If you can't control your lower body then, you'll be in big trouble."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"In the future, you'll become a representative of the adults, often appearing at important county-level meetings, and drinking and chatting with county leaders on a fraternal basis. That's the glamorous side."

This is the path Zhang Hai will inevitably take in the future.

"What about the less glamorous ones?"

"Guess again?"

Zhang Hai pondered for a long time, "I just thought those hooligans came to ask for some small money."

"They're nothing to worry about. Even if they come and have a fight, you can just beat them up and leave, or call the police. But there are some people you can't beat up or call the police on."

"who?"

Wan Feng pondered for a moment and didn't directly answer Zhang Hai's question. "In two years, when our Wahou becomes truly prosperous, jealous people will naturally appear. And these are people we can't afford to offend. Like I said just now, you're drinking and chatting happily with those leaders, and when they're in the middle of the wine, one of them mentions that his relative is unemployed. How do you respond?"

Zhang Hai seemed to understand. "Throwing people here? But we're in the countryside. Will the leaders' relatives who have urban household registration and eat commercial grain come here?"

"Do you think all the leaders' relatives have urban household registration? They always have some relatives who don't eat commercial grain. First, they will insert all their relatives. If these people are genuine people who know how to work, it's not a big deal. Even if we recruit ordinary workers, we are afraid of some people who act like big shots and do nothing but get paid."

"That's impossible. How can there be such shameless people in the world who don't work and still get paid?"

"Haha, your understanding of human nature is still too superficial. If he just gets paid without working, that's fine. But what if he uses his power to get things done? You want to kill him, but you can't. That's when you get the most headaches."

"After the competition, people will be inspected one after another. To put it bluntly, they are here to eat and take things for free. Maybe in the end, your little money will be eaten up and you will be destitute. If you don't handle it well, you will be punished. At the very least, the factory will go bankrupt, and at worst, you may even be imprisoned. So, don't think this world is so kind. You will have troubles in the future."

Zhang Hai was confused: "How could something like this happen again?"

Perhaps Zhang Hai was hit hard by Wan Feng's words, and he felt a little depressed.

"But this is just the worst-case scenario. Not many people end up like this. After all, no one can die from urine suffocation. As long as we handle it properly, these crises can be resolved."

"You're right. We should be mentally prepared for these bad things. Okay? Then again, if I have a headache, shouldn't you feel better too?"

"Haha, what does it have to do with me? I was already in Longjiang when they started doing this. By the time I came back, I guess you would have almost mastered the Iron Head Kung Fu. Why would I have a headache with you holding me back?"

Zhang Hai suddenly realized: "So I'm the only one having a headache?"

"A warrior should face the bleakness of life. If you can get through this trend, you will probably be the Monkey King."

"Get lost, the Monkey King is a monkey."

It is hard to say whether Zhang Hai can become the Monkey King Wan Feng. Anyway, he will definitely go through these things. As for whether he will become a glamorous figure in the world in the future or eventually become a tragic figure like Yu Zuomin Wan Feng, it is hard to say.

Let time test everything. Isn’t it said that true gold can only be tested by fire?

Anyway, he has built the bridge for Wahou. As the saying goes, one trick can make you successful. Wahou has tractors as its flagship industry, so it will have no worries about food and clothing for the next ten years. If it upgrades in time, another ten years will not be a problem.

If Wahou hadn't collapsed by the time he came back, he could start some businesses that would complement the idle shops, and Wahou would be able to survive more or less stably.

In the eyes of children, time passes more slowly in the twelfth lunar month, and what they argue about most is why they haven’t celebrated the New Year yet?

But in the eyes of adults, it seems that the time of twelfth lunar month passes very quickly, and it is almost the blink of an eye and only a few days are left to the Chinese New Year.

Wan Feng's classmates wrote the couplets unexpectedly quickly this year, and they didn't have to run around, they just had to squat quietly in the market behind the depression.

Before the 18th day of the 12th lunar month, almost all the couplets they had were sold out.

Everyone earned about forty or fifty yuan, and with this money they could have a pretty good New Year.

Ever since he got a motorcycle, Wan Feng had never driven the 22 tractor at the brick factory except for the wedding of Li Erman and Lanzhi. On the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, he finally drove this thing out.

The day before, I took the team to the county town to buy New Year’s goods.

This year, many people went to the county town to buy New Year's goods, many of whom bought televisions.

These are people who become wise later in life. Perhaps they feel uncomfortable watching TV at other people's homes all the time. It is far less comfortable than watching TV on the warm kang of their own home.

This group of people is not a small number, there are probably more than twenty households.

The store could deliver more than 20 televisions to people's homes, so Wan Feng sent these people to the Wujiaohua Building and found the manager and left them alone.

After buying the TV, these people just followed the delivery car home and that was it.

After these people left, there were only a few people left on the tractor.

Wan Feng's New Year's purchases this year are similar to last year's, mainly firecrackers, but what disappointed him is that there has been almost no development in fireworks compared to last year. Apart from a few more falling spray flowers, there are no new items.

Although there were not many varieties of firecrackers, he bought more than last year because there was one more household.

Luan Feng's grandmother's house and her own home.

The team has bought a lot this year. They have to release them when the three factories and the team headquarters turn purple, and they also have to release momentum, which is naturally indispensable.

So when the tractor came, it carried a cart of people, and when it went back, it carried a cart of firecrackers.
