Chapter 1154: Borrowing but Not Returning
Borrow? Once you borrow, you won't be able to return it.
Yes, even if it was a loan, Zhou Zhengtang had no intention of paying it back. It would be better to get the money first. Zhou Zhenghong had money anyway, so he wouldn't be short of a few million.
Your own millions are your life, while other people’s millions are just dirt. This selfish mentality is enough to destroy your worldview.
"Borrow? Then when do you plan to pay it back?" Zhou Zhenghong sneered and asked with interest, but he knew very well in his heart that once it was loaned out, it would never be taken back, so even if it was a loan, Zhou Zhenghong had no plan to do so.
Zhou Zhengtang also knew that Zhou Zhenghong knew what he was thinking, so he looked a little uncomfortable, but he still lied to himself and said, "I'll pay it back when I have money."
"Pay it back when you have money?" Zhou Zhenghong asked with a sneer, "The price of housing in the city is tens of thousands per square meter. A house of about 120 square meters in an ordinary community costs about 4 million yuan, plus a car of 500,000 yuan, a total of 4.5 million yuan. With your salary, when will you have the money to pay it back? Even if you save 100,000 yuan a year, 4.5 million yuan will take 45 years. I am already in my thirties and almost forty years old. I don't know if I can live to that time! And you can't work for another 45 years. Brother, you are almost fifty years old. You will retire in eleven or twelve years at most. What will you pay back then?"
Although Zhou Zhenghong's tone was sarcastic, he did not mean to look down on their work and salary, but he did look down upon their actions extremely.
What’s more, what Zhou Zhenghong said is an ironclad fact.
With their salary, it would take them a lifetime to pay off the 4.5 million, unless they make a fortune in other ways.
Although what Zhou Zhenghong said was true, Zhou Zhengtang felt that Zhou Zhenghong looked down on them, and immediately became angry and scolded: "Zhou Zhenghong, so you look down on our family so much! Why, now that you have money, you don't recognize me as your biological brother? You won't help me even if I ask you for help?"
Zhou Zhengtang raised his voice, as if he was afraid that others couldn't hear him. Of course, he did it on purpose, hoping to use public opinion to force Zhou Zhenghong to compromise.
He thought that as the general manager of "Jade Beauty Jewelry", Zhou Zhenghong would definitely want to save face, so Zhou Zhenghong would definitely compromise with him in order to shut everyone up.
After hearing Zhou Zhengtang's words, people around gathered around and looked at Zhou Zhenghong questioningly, but most of them expressed disbelief.
Because of the popularity of "Jade Beauty Jewelry", most people know Zhou Zhenghong and started talking about it.
"The man just now said he was Mr. Zhou's eldest brother?"
"Yes! I heard that Mr. Zhou's eldest brother said that Mr. Zhou looked down on him now that he was rich, and he wouldn't help him even when he asked for help."
"I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to be such a person..."
"We don't know what exactly happened yet, so don't jump to conclusions so early."
“······”
Zhou Zhenghong was not angry when being questioned, but he was angry about the slander against Zhou Zhengtang.
It’s just that Zhou Zhengtang had misjudged Zhou Zhenghong. Zhou Zhenghong was not someone who could be easily manipulated.
Since Zhou Zhengtang is unkind, does Zhou Zhenghong still need to be righteous?
No, it's not necessary. Zhou Zhenghong is also a person with a bad temper. He will be good to those who are good to him, even if he suffers a loss. However, he does not need to be good to those who are not good to him.
Zhou Zhengtang, he has been tolerant again and again, but what he got in return was his unscrupulous slander.
Moreover, as the general manager of "Jade Beauty Jewelry", his reputation will also affect the reputation of Gu Ning and "Jade Beauty Jewelry", so Zhou Zhenghong will never bear this crime.
"Brother, what you call a small matter is a big problem for me. You ask me to provide a house and a car for your son's wedding. What's the logic behind this? Do you think I'm still the boss now? Like before, can I just take out millions and buy you a car and a house if I say I'll buy you one? I'm just working for someone else now. Do you think I have four or five million? Even if I do, why don't I buy it for my son but for your son?" Zhou Zhenghong said helplessly and angrily.
Not many outsiders knew that Zhou Zhenghong was a shareholder of "Jade Beauty Jewelry", so everyone only knew that the boss of "Jade Beauty Jewelry" was Gu Ning.
As for Zhou Zhenghong, he was just working for Gu Ning, but as the general manager of "Jade Beauty Jewelry", he was paid very well.
But no matter how good it is, this "Jade Beauty Jewelry" has only been established for more than half a year. No matter how high Zhou Zhenghong's salary is, it is impossible to be four or five million! It is said to be four or five million, which means it is probably not even four or five hundred thousand!
Yes, in terms of salary, the salary in half a year is not that much, only about 200,000 at most. But when the dividends are distributed at the end of the year, it will be tens of millions.
Of course, Zhou Zhenghong still has money now. When he first met Gu Ning, he unearthed the jadeite, which made Zhou Zhenghong worth more than 10 million yuan. However, it was his money, and there was no reason for him to buy a car and a house for Zhou Zhengtang's son.
Hearing Zhou Zhenghong's words, everyone was shocked and looked at him in disbelief, questioning, despising and disgusting him.
Mr. Zhou's son got married, but he asked Mr. Zhou to provide the house and car. What kind of logic is this? Even they think that this is unreasonable. This is simply shameless and crazy.
And from what Mr. Zhou said, when he had money before, he bought a car and a house for his eldest brother. This is enough to show that Mr. Zhou is a man of affection and righteousness.
But people's kindness is limited. Not to mention that Mr. Zhou has no money now, even if he had money, he has no obligation to buy a house and a car for his nephew to get married! "Oh my God! How can this person be so shameless! For his own son's marriage, he actually asked his younger brother to buy a house and a car. This is the first time I've seen it!"
"That's right. Although we can help relatives when they have problems, the premise is that it doesn't affect ourselves. If you want to borrow a few hundred thousand, if they have the money, it's okay to lend it, but of course it's also okay not to lend it. But this time, it's four or five million, and when they don't have it, isn't this simply robbery!"
"You are so shameless and self-righteous. You really deserve a beating."
"This forest is so big, there really are all kinds of birds."
"Isn't it? They say help in emergencies but not in poverty. It's not like I'm so sick that I need money to save my life."
"If you want a garage, go buy it yourself if you have the ability! If you don't have the ability, don't even think about it."
“······”
Upon hearing this, everyone started to verbally attack Zhou Zhengtang.
Zhou Zhengtang had never expected Zhou Zhenghong to say it in public. He was at a loss for a moment and felt ashamed. After glaring at Zhou Zhenghong, he left in shame.
