Volume 1: Little People Return 2014 Chapter 040 You Have Always Been
The urban area of Guzhen is Shantou City, which has a long history and is even known as a special economic zone. However, compared with the development of Pengcheng, it is a world away.
Many locals have thousands of opinions on this, many of which are taboo and can only be said to be historical issues.
Apart from its lame title of "Special Economic Zone", this place is most famous for its beef hotpot, which has restaurants all over the country, and its dedication to freshness has left a deep impression on countless people.
To sum it up in one sentence, "The way people in this place eat beef is just like chasing the cows with shacha in hand"!
Zhou Dongsheng and Zhang Xuhui took a taxi to a 4S store in the city and each chose their favorite car.
Perhaps because I spoke the local dialect, I didn't encounter any dramatic incidents.
Zhang Xuhui quickly picked out the classic popular Nissan Camry sedan, which had a landing price of 210,000 yuan. He chose it without hesitation, and when he signed his name, Zhang Xuhui's mouth was crooked with smiles.
How many men can afford a car at the age of 18? At this age when people love cars the most, being able to afford one is a rare happiness.
Zhang Xuhui also knew that he was able to have this happiness thanks to Zhou Dongsheng's support. Although he had also put in a lot of effort, without the investment Zhou Dongsheng brought in, he would be powerless.
Compared to Zhang Xuhui's excitement, Zhou Dongsheng discovered with some embarrassment that the Volvo SUV models he remembered had not yet been launched on the market.
Zhou Dongsheng didn't think twice about it. He just wanted to buy a car for transportation. A Honda CRV would be a good choice first. The landing price is around 230,000 yuan, which is cheap and affordable.
After completing a series of formalities, the two men had the best-selling models of cars ready to drive, so they drove to Gu Town. When the sun was setting, two brand new cars were parked at the door of the "Seeing Flowers in the Mist" company.
After getting out of the car, Zhang Xuhui locked the car and looked back a few more times reluctantly, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
In comparison, Zhou Dongsheng calmly locked the car without even looking at it, like a scumbag.
"Wow, congratulations to the boss for buying a new car!"
It was just time to get off work, and many employees saw their boss getting a new car. They congratulated him with envy in their eyes.
Especially when I think about the fact that the two bosses are only 18 years old, have successful careers and bought new cars, while even though I am a few years older, I am just working for them, I feel envious but also a little uncomfortable.
At this time, Zhang Yanyan came out. Zhang Xuhui's eyes lit up and he asked radiantly, "Yanyan, are you off work? I'll take you back to the car you just bought?"
After saying that, he pressed the remote control, and the Camry not far away flashed its lights. Perhaps it was the support of the new car that gave Zhang Xuhui the courage to make a bold invitation.
Zhou Dongsheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Wasn't this just a kid who couldn't wait to show off after getting a toy he liked?
Zhang Yanyan took a look at the two cars and said calmly, "The sedan is too crowded. I still prefer the SUV, which is more spacious." After saying that, he did not forget to look at Zhou Dongsheng.
Zhou Dongsheng threw the key without thinking, "Okay, the car is yours, you can take Yanyan back."
Zhang Xuhui was a little embarrassed at first, but was overjoyed when he heard this. He silently thanked Zhou Dongsheng in his heart and looked at Zhang Yanyan eagerly again.
Zhang Yanyan rolled her eyes at Zhou Dongsheng in annoyance. She had never expected this move, but it was difficult to go back on her words.
He simply walked towards the SUV, sat on the passenger seat angrily, and glared at Zhou Dongsheng through the glass.
Zhang Xuhui handed his keys to Zhou Dongsheng and said gratefully, "Thank you, Brother Sheng. I'll let you drive my car and return it to you tomorrow."
After saying that, he ran to drive the car happily. After getting in and starting the SUV, Zhang Xuhui did not forget to wave to Zhou Dongsheng and drove away happily.
Zhou Dongsheng shrugged helplessly and said, "The opportunity was given to you, brother. It's not my fault if you can't grasp it. But with Zhang Xuhui's attitude, he will be dominated by his wife even after getting married."
Zhou Dongsheng got into the Camry and adjusted the seat. After all, at a height of 1.8 meters, his legs were much longer than Zhang Xuhui's. This was also the main reason why Zhou Dongsheng liked SUVs.
I drove home and had already bought a car, so I had to consider renovating the old house.
Today, Zhou Dongsheng's company in his hometown is on the right track, his income source is obvious to all, and he can talk to his mother about this matter openly.
This includes a series of issues such as allowing her to retire and have a physical examination. If there is no legitimate reason, it is impossible to persuade his old mother. Zhou Dongsheng understands this very well.
After all, as a single mother, it would have been impossible for her to raise Zhou Dongsheng in the countryside without some temper and character.
When he thought of this, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but smile. This was also the reason why he had put so much thought into joining forces with Zhang Xuhui to start a business in Gu Town.
Not only does it give my mother a legitimate reason, it is also an opportunity for her to gain face and vent her anger for the grievances she has suffered over the years.
And this is just the beginning.
Zhou Dongsheng parked his car in the open space in front of his house. As soon as he got out of the car, a neighbor noticed him and said, "Hey, isn't this Dongsheng? He's driving a car?"
"Aunt Zhang, you made some money from your business, so you bought a car for transportation." Zhou Dongsheng responded with a smile.
"It's only been a few months, and you can earn so much? Is this business easy? Let my son try it too." Aunt Zhang next door looked particularly envious.
At this time, Liu Huaiying heard the noise and came out. He was a little surprised when he saw the car, but when he heard Aunt Zhang's words, he spoke immediately.
"How can there be such an easy-to-make-money business? This car must have been bought with a loan. This kid has loved showing off since he was young. He gets too proud of himself after earning a little bit of money. Let's go home and have dinner quickly." After saying that, he pulled Zhou Dongsheng home.
Even so, Aunt Zhang was still extremely envious. She couldn't help but make a note of it and decided to go and ask around. But this time Liu Huaiying had finally made it and her son had a bright future.
Thinking of this, Aunt Zhang became furious. She thought of her own son , who was the same age as her, but could only ride a motorcycle around outside and didn't learn from others. It was really... The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she turned around and walked into the house.
"You, you buy a car with all the money you earn? " Liu Huaiying started nagging when he returned home.
"Actually, the car is not mine, it belongs to Xuhui." Zhou Dongsheng said honestly.
"Since it's not yours, why are you trying so hard to pretend to be rich? It's true that young people like to show off, but it's not good to be too vain." Liu Huaiying advised earnestly.
"This car is not mine. My car is with him. It's an SUV. It's not expensive, only 200,000 yuan." Zhou Dongsheng smiled.
"Only 200,000? Why are you talking so arrogantly now? How come my mother doesn't even recognize you?" Liu Huaiying suddenly became furious.
"No, no, mom, the business is really profitable. We made about a million last month, and we got a lot of money. Buying a car is a piece of cake. I'm also going to build a house for you."
Zhou Dongsheng quickly told the truth and didn't dare to be naughty anymore. If he made his mother angry, it would be a waste of time.
"Did he really earn so much money?" Liu Huaiying asked suspiciously. He couldn't believe that his son was so successful and was a little dazed for a moment.
"It's absolutely true. How could I lie to you? This is only last month's earnings. Now that the business is on the right track, I will only make more and more money."
"How can this be possible? If you want your business to continue, you have to manage it properly. Temporary success doesn't mean anything. Aren't there many factories that have closed down in Gu Town in recent years?" Liu Huaiying reminded him subconsciously.
"But you are so young and you still have a long way to go. Such achievements are enough to brag about. There is nothing wrong with being vain. Mom is happy for you and proud of you." Liu Huaiying smiled from the bottom of her heart with a gleam in the corners of her eyes.
At this moment, it seemed as if all the suffering I had endured over the years had disappeared. As long as my son has a bright future, I, as a mother, will be a million times happier.
"Hey, how's it going? Is your son your pride now?"
"Not just now, you have always been my pride."
