The van Shi Zhen was placed on the construction site of Changxi City.
That Xiali, he drove to Anshan Town.
At this moment, in Anshan Town, except for the main road that runs through the east and west, the other roads are very small, and many places are difficult for cars to pass through. Fortunately, Shi Dalin's canteen can drive there.
When Shi Zhen returned home, it was two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were few people on the road, but the road was smooth.
At the end of June, the weather was already getting hot, and basically no one went out to shop at this time, but outside the small shop opened by Zhao Meiyun and Shi Dalin, some retired women with children gathered, and there was an old man with a granddaughter inside.
They held a fan and chatted in the shade under the shed. From time to time, they fanned or patted their children a few times to fan them and chase away mosquitoes.
When a child wants to buy snacks, the grandma will open her pocket to show him: "Grandma has no money, don't believe me."
The child could only give up and continue to play with his friends.
This is considered good. There are also children who see their grandma chatting with people and ignore themselves, so they cover their grandma's mouth and prevent grandma from talking.
Shi Zhen's car stopped by the side, these people didn't take it seriously, but when Shi Zhen got off the car, they were shocked.
Shi Zhen was very busy and didn't come here many times, but Shi Dalin and his shop had been open for more than a year. These people who lived nearby still knew Shi Zhen.
When Shi Zhen built a house here, some people already knew Shi Zhen.
Zhao Meiyun is not the kind of person who likes to say that her child is not good in front of others. She just said about Zhao Dongjuan. She doesn't say a word, and she hides it for fear that others will know.
It's a good thing, she can't hold back and wants to tell people.
But she was afraid that if she said it herself, others would say she was showing off.
Especially complimenting her daughter would make her very embarrassed, so even if she thought Zhao Qiujuan was good, she was embarrassed to say it, and only made a few words.
Such as: "My daughter is also true. I told her not to be so tired. She didn't listen. In the morning, the sales of rice balls were not enough, and they started selling rice dumplings again."
"I don't have much to do... I'm cooking today, and my daughter does it again."
"I told her not to buy this and that for me, and she bought me clothes again."
…
Of course, everyone can actually hear that she is complimenting people.
However, when it came to Shi Zhen, it was different. She praised her very candidly and her voice became louder. She not only praised these people, but also praised Shi Dalin.
"My family, A Zhen, opened a company and has dozens of people under him."
"He recently went to Changxi City every day to work on projects there."
"In our village, he is the most promising."
"He's good-looking and capable."
…
Zhao Meiyun boasted so much, but before, people around here didn't take it seriously.
Shi Zhen looked young, how could he be so powerful, they felt that most of it was Zhao Meiyun bragging.
But now Shi Zhen is back in his car... This is different!
The living conditions of the people in the town are much better than those in the countryside, but most of them just go to work. It is no problem to save money to buy household appliances such as TVs, washing machines, etc., but to buy a car... This is still unaffordable.
In this day and age, having a car is definitely a more decent thing than having a house.
Immediately someone said to Zhao Meiyun, "Meiyun, your son is back, driving!"
Zhao Meiyun was originally busy in the house, but when she heard the words, she ran out and almost collided with Shi Dalin at the door.
Then she saw Shi Zhen and the car parked on the road in front of the store.
Zhao Meiyun's expression was a little dazed: "Azhen, did you buy this car?"
"Yeah." Shi Zhen smiled.
"How much does this car cost!" Zhao Meiyun was distressed and proud.
As for Shi Dalin, he was already at the side of the car, and he reached out to touch the car, but he didn't dare to touch it because he was afraid that his hand would be too rough to scratch the car.
Shi Zhen said: "This is Xiali, which is cheaper than Santana, 80,000."
Zhao Meiyun took a deep breath.
Eighty thousand, this is eighty thousand!
Before, they bought the foundation and made a partnership of 90,000 yuan, which was very special to him, but now, the car costs 80,000 yuan...
However, although he was shocked, the envious gazes of the people around him also made Zhao Meiyun flutter a little.
Shi Zhen is also... It's too long for her.
Shi Dalin laughed too hard. It won't be long before everyone around here will know that his son bought a car, and he will be happy just thinking about it!
Shi Zhen bought a car and came here specially, just to make Shi Dalin and the others happy.
But he stayed here for a while and then left.
It won't be long before the primary school is over, and people have come to set up stalls one after another, and there will be countless parents who will pick up their children. At that time, when his car is parked, it will affect others. .
Shi Zhen returned to Guanjia Village, and the car stopped at the gate of Guan Jianguo.
Shi Xingchao came out immediately and exclaimed, "Azhen, have you bought a car?"
"Yeah." Shi Zhen smiled.
"You're so reluctant..." Shi Xingchao felt that he would never spend so much money to buy a car. Once the house is built, you can live in it all the time, and you can save rent. Cars are different. cost money!
"It's useful for business." Shi Zhen laughed.
He actually wants to buy a house, but in contrast, it is more important to start a business.
At this time in his last life, he was still building self-built houses in the countryside, and now he basically no longer takes up the job of self-built houses in the countryside. Of course, if a big boss offered a high price, he would definitely be willing to sit.
"Those who do business really need a car." Although Shi Xingchao didn't like to spend money, as the most popular person among middle-aged women in the village, he had heard all kinds of gossip and understood many things.
Of course... Understand, understand, he is still reluctant to spend money.
"Shi Zhen, you bought a car!"
"I said long ago that you are promising, and you sure are!"
"This car is so beautiful!"
…
Others asked Shi Zhen if he was willing to help people drive the wedding car, and they were willing to give three hundred and sixty-six red envelopes.
Shi Zhen refused.
It doesn't take long for someone to drive a wedding car, but after setting the date in advance, it will be very troublesome if you can't go there on that day.
On the Guan's side, no one has bought a car at this time, so there is an endless stream of people who come to see it specially.
Guan Jianguo's mother walked around the car for several times, and then started complaining to Shi Zhen about Guan Jianguo, saying that since Guan Jianguo bought the boat, he has been away from home and can't bring back how much money, especially recently, every time he goes out, there is no I won't come back for a month, and I have no money when I come back.
Shi Zhen's heart sank slightly.
Probably from this year, the supply of ships carrying goods on the river exceeded the demand, and the competition became more and more fierce.
In the beginning, you could make a lot of money by sailing a ship, now... if you are unlucky, you will lose money.
Although just like Guan Guangguo raising chickens, if he survives this wave, his life will be stable in the future, but it is very difficult to survive, and Guan Jianguo gave up in his last life.
Of course, giving up is not necessarily a bad thing. Later, Guan Jianguo also developed very well.
Although the shipbuilding cost him tens of thousands of yuan, but if he looks back ten years later, he will find that this amount of money is nothing.
Grandma Guan Er complained about her son, and Shi Zhen saw Zhang Xiumei coming.
Guan Baiyu's adoptive mother now greets Shi Zhen with a smile. Now, she has something to ask Shi Zhen: "Shi Zhen, Jin Jin's grades are not very good, and she doesn't want to study anymore... You How to do this?"
Guan Jinjin is in the third year of junior high this year, and he has already passed the senior high school entrance examination.
Her grades were average, or should be said, the grades of rural junior high school students were average. Most of them went to work after graduating from junior high school.
In another ten years, there will be more and more secondary schools in Changxi City, the score line will be lower and lower, and everyone's income will be higher... At that time, there will be fewer people who do not continue to study after graduating from junior high school, and will basically spend money to let their children go to school. After reading a secondary school, there are many people who let their children continue to read after finishing the secondary school.
"If you can read, of course, go to school. She is still too young... If she really doesn't want to read, or doesn't pass the exam, let her learn a skill." Shi Zhen said.
If there is no way, Guan Jinjin must continue to study, and the score should not be too bad.
In the previous year, Zhang Xiumei and Guan Guangguo raised chickens and earned a lot of money. Not only did they pay off the arrears, but they also had about 10,000 yuan left on their hands. Send my daughter to study.
Zhang Xiumei struggled and left.
Shi Zhen bought a car, and it was much more convenient to go to various construction sites. That is, at this time, the policy of Anshan Town came out.
Shi Zhen has a project to build a road, but he didn't win it. Now the road has been built. As for those who bought the land, they want to build a house... The government will help with bidding. The person who bought the land.
The total height of the house, as well as the general appearance, are required by the government, but the house type inside can be chosen by the person who builds the house.
This kind of land sale allows people to build their own houses, and when they are demolished, they give people a piece of land and let them build their own houses together... Anshan Town has done a lot in the next 20 years.
The first major project Shi Zhen received in his previous life was of this type.
So he has experience and has the right blueprints on hand.
Of course, he may not be successful in winning the bid. He wanted this project very much before. After all, after doing this kind of project, his team can be upgraded from a state similar to a "miscellaneous army" to a "regular army". But not long ago, he took over a municipal project in Changxi City.
This transformation, he has completed.
The Anshan Town project has become dispensable to him.
He is still focusing on this project, mainly because his own house is also in it.
The bidding for the project is in July, and the start of construction is estimated to be in September. As for the completion, it will definitely have to wait for next year.
Before that, Shi Zhen had to go to Changxi City to pick up Guan Baiyu, who was on summer vacation. In addition, Guan Baiyu, who had graduated from the second year of high school, had to go to school to make up 40 days of classes this summer.
The summer vacation starts for ten days, and on the 10th of July, I go to make-up classes. Each time I make up ten days, I will take two days off after making up, and then continue... After making up forty days, the school will almost start.
Guan Baiyu and the others have almost no summer vacation.
Shi Zhen's car was parked at the entrance of Changxi City No. 1 Middle School, and he stood by the car and waited.
His car was a cheap Xiali, but now he was standing beside the car, and it was more cool than standing beside a million-dollar car 20 years later.
"You are Guan Baiyu's brother, right?" Someone spoke to Shi Zhen.
Shi Zhen looked over and saw a woman in her 50s or 60s who had permed her hair and looked very elegant.
Shi Zhen recognized her immediately.
In his last life, he always thought that Guan Baiyu was from the Sun family, so he also inquired about the situation of the Sun family. They all lived in Changxi City, and he also met the Sun family.
The old lady in front of her is Fei Ping, Sun Pingfu's wife.
He had prejudice against the Sun family in his last life, and tried his best to avoid contact with the Sun family. Sometimes he would find a reason to leave when he saw the Sun family present on certain occasions.
He was secretive, and others might not know what he was thinking, but now that he recalled it, he was a little embarrassed.
"Hello, my name is Shi Zhen, I'm Guan Baiyu's cousin." Shi Zhen smiled.
"My granddaughter's name is Sun Qiqi, and she is also studying in No. 1 Middle School," Fei Ping said. "At the end of this term, thanks to Guan Baiyu borrowing her class notes, her chemistry and physics scores have improved."
"That must be your granddaughter's own efforts." Shi Zhen remembered that the Sun family had a granddaughter, but he hadn't seen her in his last life. It seems that the girl stayed in the big city after graduation.
On the other hand, Fei Ping's grandson and granddaughter all developed in Changxi City.
Fei Ping was delighted to hear Shi Zhen's words. She talked about Teacher Fei again, saying that it was her cousin, and also mentioned the house where the Shi family lives now, which is actually hers.
In this way, the two can talk more.
Chatting and chatting, Fei Ping said, "I heard my daughter-in-law say, you have taken up a municipal project? The young man is really good. He has done such a good job at a young age."
When Shi Zhen heard this, his heart moved, and he probably knew how he received this project.
I am afraid that there is a relationship with the Sun family.
I don't know why the Sun family would help him...
In the last life, the Sun family was determined to draw a clear line with the Guan family. Now... Is it because Guan Baiyu borrowed the class notes to Sun Qiqi
But no matter what, this love must be remembered: "Don't worry, I will do this project well."
Fei Ping was satisfied. She came here to mention it, just to let people know about it... You can't do good deeds without leaving your name.
But after talking like this... Her impression of Shi Zhen was pretty good.
Because of this, she couldn't help but ask, "Why did Guan Baiyu send him to the Guan family to raise him? Where are his parents?"
Shi Zhen didn't hide it, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Yu was abducted and sold, but he doesn't know the situation."
Fei Ping was surprised.
Shi Zhen said again: "The old lady of the Guan family bought him back, and it's not good for him... In half a year, when he becomes an adult, I plan to let him live alone."
"That's fine," Fei Ping said, "That old lady of the Guan family, alas!"
Although Fei Ping complained about the old lady at home all day, but outside, she would not be right and wrong.
So it's okay to say that.
But she didn't have any grudges against Guan Baiyu... this time, she still had the intention of making good friends.
With Guan Baiyu's achievements and ability, his future development will not be bad, and it's no harm to get to know him.
Guan Baiyu came out with a large bag and a small bag, and saw Shi Zhen. He came over excitedly, saw Fei Ping again, and called out, "Hello, Grandma Fei."
Fei Ping attaches great importance to her granddaughter, and she has nothing to do after retirement.
She has a good attitude, so Guan Baiyu is naturally very polite to her.
"Long time no see Xiaoguan, he looks even more handsome... What grade did you take this time?" Fei Ping asked.
"Second." Guan Baiyu said with a smile, he originally took the third test more often, but the second, the second year of high school, has been busy with mathematics competitions, and his Chinese performance has declined, and he was finally overtaken.
But they are not at a loss. He won a prize in the competition, and he can get extra points in the college entrance examination, and may even be recommended.
Hearing this, Fei Ping complimented again.
At this time, Sun Qiqi also came, and the two sides stopped chatting.
Shi Zhen turned around and put Guan Baiyu's luggage into the trunk of the car.
Guan Baiyu was a little confused when he saw it: "Brother, this car?"
"I bought it." Shi Zhen smiled.
"Brother, you are too powerful!" Guan Baiyu was extremely happy.
This car has air conditioning. Although the air conditioning will not work when the car is driven fast, the cool breeze blowing out is still surprising.
Shi Zhen turned on the air conditioner for Guan Baiyu, took him back, and told him what happened recently.
In the past six months, Guan Baiyu has not paid much attention to the affairs of Huaguang Stationery, but he is clear about the process of opening the company, and he can chat with Shi Zhen about everything.
Guan Baiyu in his previous life could not do this.
Shi Zhen occasionally turned his head to the side, seeing Guan Baiyu in high spirits, he was in a particularly good mood.
