Chapter 1174 Supporting the nurse's ideals
"The time for the second phase of renovation is tight. Our village invested 5 million in the first phase. Now, in less than a year, we have made a profit of 1.6 million. If we increase publicity next year, we may almost get our money back. After the dividend meeting the day after tomorrow, it should not be difficult to raise 300 to 400 million."
Zhou Xiaoke, who has discussed this with the design team, is full of confidence.
The term of office of a village chief is only three years, and there is no time to lose. Zhou Xiaoke is eager to immediately transform Zhoushui Village into a benchmark for the entire Lizhou, Wuzhou, and Jiangxi Province, so that the entire village can achieve a well-off life.
"come on."
Seeing Zhou Xiaoke like this, Zhou Anan did not pour cold water on him. After drinking a sip of tea, she gave him a word of encouragement.
At worst, the Zhou family would take responsibility for the remaining amount. It just so happened that he had not spent the more than 200 million yuan in dividends that had just arrived.
"Then I'll go first."
After drinking two pots of tea, seeing that it was getting late, Zhou Anan got up and said goodbye, and drove the new Audi R8 prepared by the 4S shop back to the village.
Compared to the obvious luxury style of Maserati, the R8 looks more low-key.
Well, you’ll get tired of driving a Maserati after a long time, so it feels good to change things up with another car occasionally.
This Audi R8 is considered a sports car, and the handling feels quite different from that of a Maserati. At least Zhou Anan felt good while driving it, and it felt a little bit novel.
For men, besides beautiful women, perhaps only luxury cars can arouse their inner desires.
Compared with his previous concealment, Zhou Anan drove the car directly to the door of his house this time, but when he entered the house, there was no one there.
After thinking about it, Zhou Anan guessed the biggest possibility.
My grandparents go to my uncle's house to help, my dad works in a supermarket, and my mom is a boss in a factory.
Well, it seems like there’s no dinner planned.
With nothing to do, Zhou Anan took a walk to the village square.
Although the Chinese New Year is approaching, there are still quite a few cars parked in the square. There are various brands, but most of them are worth more than 200,000 yuan. It is estimated that they all come to the old-style building to experience the homestay, under the pretext of bringing their children to experience life in the 1950s and 1960s.
Well, this is the slogan of Zhoushui Village B&B.
Compared to the last time I came back, business at my uncle's 'Old Friend Restaurant' was a little slower, with only the private rooms filled with guests.
In order to expand the business, the rooms on the second and third floors of my uncle's house were converted into private rooms, totaling 10 private rooms, so the business was not bad.
After all, there is no rafting business now. There are only guests of homestays and some individual tourists who come to see the scenery. In addition, some people in the village have followed suit and opened several hotels, so the competition is quite fierce.
The "simple" villagers who have no vision and only see the petty profits in front of them will never start their own business if they see others making money and can imitate them.
It is called safety.
"An An, you haven't had dinner yet? Your parents are very busy. Come and have dinner at my place later."
"No, I have an appointment to eat downtown."
"It's so late, it's inconvenient without a car, I'll give you a ride."
"It's okay, I drove back by myself."
After visiting her uncle's house for a while, Zhou Anan declined her uncle's invitation to stay for dinner and called her mother: "Hello, Mom, I won't be home for dinner..."
On the way to the city, Zhou Anan was thinking about where to go for a meal when she received a call from the nurse.
"Brother An, I ran away from home."
Ten minutes later, Zhou Anan, who met the nurse sister at the intersection of the pedestrian street, happened to see Qian being harassed by a man who was trying to strike up a conversation with her.
"Beauty, I just want your TT number, so we can chat when we're free."
"If you agree, I'll take you out for a midnight snack. You can choose any place in Lizhou, and we can have a good chat."
"If that doesn't work, how about giving me a cell phone number?"
The young man, who had been following the other person for more than ten minutes, spoke persistently.
The difference in height created by her prominent curves and slender waist alone was enough to make him willing to spend the entire day there.
Others say that legs are enough to play with for years, and this young girl is enough for him to play with for several years.
"Brother An."
Jia Qinqian, who originally had an impatient look on her face, looked at the black car in front of her, ran forward in surprise, still ignoring the boring man.
"Get in the car."
Ignoring the envious and jealous passerby, Zhou Anan smiled and asked the other person to get in the car.
"Um."
A few seconds later, the black R8 roared away amid the envious eyes of others.
"Hmph, another superficial woman."
Looking at the back of the luxury car, the young man who failed in his pick-up attempt sneered and continued to look for his next target.
When it comes to love, as long as you work hard and are thick-skinned, there will be a day when you can eat swan meat.
"What's wrong?"
Holding the steering wheel with one hand and placing his right hand naturally on Qian's legs which were wearing black cotton stockings, Zhou Anan asked with concern.
"I had a fight with my parents."
Speaking of this, Jia Qinqian's happy expression was mixed with a bit of frustration: "My parents want me to take the nursing exam directly so that I can start working and earn money early. However, I want to pass the exam, continue to study at a junior college, then study to a bachelor's degree, get a pharmacist qualification certificate or something, so that I don't have to be a low-level nurse for the rest of my life."
"That's a good idea. I support you."
After hearing what Qian said, Zhou Anan smiled and encouraged her.
He knew that the other party's family background was average, or even a little poor. Her parents were ordinary workers, and she had two younger brothers and sisters who were still in school. The family might need her to start working early to reduce the burden.
From a parent's perspective, there is nothing wrong with this request.
After all, if you pass the exam to become a formal nurse, it will be a bit tiring, but the advantage is that the job is stable and the salary is not low, so it can be considered a stable job.
But for the girls themselves, it is a place where they can see the ceiling of their future. They work hard all their lives and cannot leave that small space.
As a man of integrity, Zhou Anan naturally stood on the side of the nurse sister without hesitation and supported her own ideals.
"Alas, my parents don't think so."
Feeling the uncle's support, the unhappiness between Jia Qinqian's brows mostly disappeared.
"Dilili, dilili..."
At this time, Jia Qinqian's pager rang. Seeing the familiar number, she subconsciously glanced at the uncle who was driving seriously next to her, then picked up the phone and asked in a low voice: "Xuanxuan, what's the matter?"
Last time at the Yintai Shopping Mall in Wucheng, the uncle wanted to buy her a mobile phone, but Jia Qinqian refused because she was afraid that the secret would be exposed and her best friend would find out.
Although she really wanted to have her own mobile phone, she didn't want to ruin her friendship with her best friend, and she vaguely felt that the uncle's concern for her best friend was a little bit strange.
"Qianqian, did you run away from home? Your uncle has called me. So, wherever you are, I will go shopping with you and sleep with you at night."
Hu Yuxuan was not worried at all about his friend running away from home. Instead, he was excited about finding a chance to go shopping and sleep well at night.
"Well, it's okay. I just want to be alone. Otherwise, you can tell my parents that I'm with you so they don't worry."
Feeling the warmth from the uncle's palm, Jia Qinqian blushed and politely declined her best friend's kindness, and also wanted her to help her cover up a lie.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm just bored at home. Where are you? I'll come right over."
Hu Yuxuan said this very righteously, thinking that his friend was afraid of troublesome him.
“…”
Admiring her own ability to express the problem and her best friend's understanding, Jia Qinqian didn't know how to proceed for a moment.
Reject or reject.
Finally, Jia Qinqian responded vaguely after feeling the strength in the uncle's palm.
After hanging up the phone, Jia Qinqian looked at the other party with tears in her eyes.
At some point, the car had stopped at the side of a remote road. At the intersection in the distance, several Mercedes-Benz and Audi cars were parked in tacit understanding, causing drivers who wanted to take a shortcut to consciously change their routes.
