Chapter 1140 Zhou Zhenghong's Top Relatives
For Zhou Zhenghong, driving a car worth two million yuan is already enough to give him face.
Moreover, not all rich people drive luxury cars. Take Gu Ning for example. Apart from the Lamborghini worth tens of millions that the Tang family gave her, her own car, the Land Rover that Gao Yi drives, only costs a few hundred thousand, less than one million.
Sometimes, the richer a person is, the more low-key he is. Being high-profile can easily get you into trouble.
Zhou Zhenghong came to discuss business, representing [Jade Beauty Jewelry], so Gu Ning thought that he should just pay more attention to his face.
In fact, even if Gu Ning didn't deliver it to Zhou Zhenghong, Zhou Zhenghong would be able to afford it easily, just not now.
Because [Jade Beauty Jewelry] has just started, dividends will not be distributed until the end of the year.
However, not to mention the end of the year, in the past few months, the sales profit of [Jade Beauty Jewelry], the dividends Zhou Zhenghong could get were tens of millions.
As the reputation of [Jade Beauty Jewelry] grew and its sales increased, Zhou Zhenghong received dividends of no less than 50 million in a year.
Once the dividends come in, Zhou Zhenghong will be able to afford to buy a villa in the capital.
However, Zhou Zhenghong doesn't like villas. There are only him and his son at home, and a 120-square-meter house is enough. A villa would be too empty and deserted.
He has no plans to remarry because there are too many cases of stepmothers treating their stepchildren badly. He would rather his son lack maternal love than have him suffer other grievances.
"Okay, then..." Gu Ning was about to say, then wait until the time comes and let Zhou Zhenghong go to the capital.
However, before he could finish his words, Zhou Zhenghong's cell phone rang, so Gu Ning stopped talking.
"Boss, sorry, I have to take a call first." Zhou Zhenghong quickly apologized to Gu Ning and took out his cell phone immediately. Because he was worried that it was a work-related matter, he took care of the call first.
However, when Zhou Zhenghong saw the caller ID, his face darkened. He didn't want to answer the call at first, but after thinking about it, he still answered it.
"Zhenghong, I'm the eldest brother." The other party said: "Well, Akang is getting married..."
"Oh, when is that day? If I have time, I will go and participate." Zhou Zhenghong said.
Although he was disappointed with his brothers and sisters, he didn't want to break up with them. Normally, he wouldn't hang out with them anymore, but he still had to attend his nephew's wedding.
"But..." Then he hesitated, as if he was in a dilemma, but after a few seconds, he still spoke: "But the girl's family requires a house in the city, no less than 100 square meters, and a car worth about 500,000 yuan."
"This is your family's business, why are you telling me this?" Zhou Zhenghong asked, pretending to be confused, but he sneered in his heart. Why did his eldest brother tell him this? How could he not know! He just wanted to plot against him!
"We have no money!" Zhou Zhengtang said helplessly.
"If you don't have money, don't buy it! What can you buy it with if you don't have money?" Zhou Zhenghong said.
Zhou Zhengtang knew that Zhou Zhenghong was playing dumb! Although he was angry, he didn't dare to blame Zhou Zhenghong because he wanted to get him.
"But the girl's family insists on it! Otherwise, the marriage can't be completed." Zhou Zhengtang said.
"They know you can't afford it, but they still make things difficult for you. You want a daughter-in-law like this? I don't want a daughter-in-law who doesn't want a car and a house! Besides, your family is not without a car and a house. Your house is not small, and it is enough for the whole family to live in! Although the car is less than 50,000 yuan, it is also 200,000 or 300,000 yuan." Zhou Zhenghong said.
The house of Zhou Zhengtang's family was bought by Zhou Zhenghong, and the car was also bought by Zhou Zhenghong, and both were paid in full.
The house is located in the suburbs, with five bedrooms and an area of 150 square meters. There are only four people in their family, so it is enough for them to live in. Even if the new daughter-in-law is added, she will live in the same room with Zhou Mingkang, so it won't have any impact.
Although the car is a bit old, it is still drivable.
Zhou Zhengtang's family is not short of RVs, they are just greedy.
When his business was booming, his two brothers and sisters helped him buy a house and a car, as well as do other things, which cost a total of five or six million yuan.
However, when he was down and out, they all stayed away from him.
He just wanted to ask them to help take care of his son, but they thought he wanted to borrow money and didn't answer the phone. Both brothers and sisters did the same. Later, when they met on the street, they said they had no money and left in a hurry without saying a word to him.
So, Zhou Zhenghong saw through them.
A few days ago, they knew that he was the general manager of [Jade Beauty Jewelry], so they came to him again, trying to get close to him in various ways, but he always rejected them by saying that he was busy.
Zhou Zhengtang was somewhat blocked by Zhou Zhenghong's words. In fact, the girl's family didn't really need a motorhome, because their current conditions were pretty good compared to most people.
Both the husband and wife work in state-owned enterprises. Their salaries are not high, but not low either. His wife has an easier job and makes 7,000 yuan a month, while he makes about 11,000 or 12,000 yuan.
Zhou Mingkang also passed the exam and was admitted to the company. Although his current salary is only five or six thousand, it will increase over time.
Moreover, Zhou Mingkang's girlfriend also works in the unit and has a salary similar to Zhou Mingkang's. However, the girl's family conditions are not as good as theirs, so they don't look down on her.
They just wanted more, so they used this as an excuse to take advantage of Zhou Zhenghong.
Over the years, their family has saved about 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, which is enough to buy a new car, but it is far from enough to pay a down payment on a house.
If it were before, even if Zhou Zhenghong would not pay the full amount, he would at least give a down payment, but now, they can't get a penny from him.
Seeing Zhou Zhenghong continue to play dumb, Zhou Zhengtang couldn't sit still anymore, so he spoke directly: "Second brother! I'll tell you the truth! I know you have money. What about Akang! He is also your nephew. He is getting married now, but he needs a house and a car. Our situation is not good, so our family can't afford it. So I came to you to ask for your financial support."
I have to say that Zhou Zhengtang is really thick-skinned. If he borrowed money to buy a car and a house, it would be understandable, but this subsidy... Isn't it just asking for it in vain? But why did he do that? Zhou Mingkang is his nephew, Zhou Zhenghong, but not his son. He has money, what does it have to do with them? Just because he has money, does that mean he should buy a car and a house for his nephew? How can this be justified in this world?
Although Zhou Zhenghong knew Zhou Zhengtang's intention from the beginning, he couldn't help laughing out of anger after hearing him say it with his own ears.
