Chapter 36 The Seventh Brother Chen Zilin

The spring breeze of reform has blown green all over the country, and Chen Zilin is dipped in the light of reform and opening up.

He learned a driver's license, started driving for others, then saved a little money and took out a little loan to buy a van for himself.

I started to run transportation in my hometown, and I bought some local specialties and sold them in the county town. The business was getting better and better.

Slowly turning around, and then simply set up a purchase point at home, specializing in the sale of local specialties, and brought some daily necessities, becoming an acquisition store.

His wife Yan Huizhi didn't read much, but she could still settle accounts. She could watch the stall for him and collect the money. In addition, although her father and mother were old, they still knew how to settle accounts. The eldest had already gone to elementary school. A son, life is prosperous.

Today, the Mid-Autumn Festival is about to end, Chen Zilin said, "Huizhi, prepare something for me. I'll go to see the eldest sister and the others, as well as the second brother in the provincial capital, and let them all come back for the festival."

"What are you preparing for? You can get each of them a souvenir. Everyone is short of everything now. Do you think they are still short of food and clothing as they were in previous years?" Yan Huizhi said.

"Alright, Zi Ang hasn't come back for a long time. I'll go see her and bring her back to live for a few days. The child won't come back after the holiday." Chen Zilin said.

In rural areas, traffic is okay, but communication is inconvenient.

Chen Zilin bought a pager, but as soon as he returned to the country, he became dumb. Every time he called back, he had to go to the city. He thought about installing a phone at home.

A few days ago, he went to the post and telecommunications office to inquire. There is a phone with an antenna. Put the antenna on the roof, and if it can receive the signal, you can make calls. This makes it easier for brothers and sisters to contact each other, and it is more convenient for him to do business. .

Chen Zilin pulled a van full of souvenirs. He sold half of it and gave the sisters half.

Now life is getting better and better, and he has a balance in his hands. His mind is more than that. He wants to go to the provincial capital to see if he can do business in the provincial capital. The second brother and the second sister-in-law are in the province. City, may be able to give an idea.

Go to Chen Zihui's house first, the eldest nephew and Ziang are about the same age, and will graduate from college soon. The eldest brother-in-law is now a boss in the town.

The eldest brother-in-law is not tall, fat, and smiles like a Maitreya Buddha, and the eldest sister is now the principal of their school through her own efforts and her relationship with her brother-in-law.

Chen Zilin didn't go to her eldest sister's house very often, and they didn't communicate much except when they would go home during the New Years and holidays.

Everyone has their own small family and they have to live. In fact, the sisters are secretly saving their energy to see who is doing well. Usually the eldest sister is not at home, they all live in the school, even if Chen Zilin goes to see the eldest sister I also went to school, and my eldest sister is at home today.

Chen Zilin drove to the eldest sister's house and parked the car downstairs in the community. This community is a newly built building in the city. It is 16 stories high. There are many trees planted in the community, densely shaded and equipped with an elevator.

Chen Zilin pondered, when he made money, he would buy a house like this and bring his parents to live in the city.

The eldest sister lives on the 13th floor. Chen Zilin took the elevator for the first time, studied it, saw how others operate it, went up and down twice, and then pressed the 13th floor to find the eldest sister's house.

The eldest sister and the eldest brother-in-law were both at home. Chen Zilin entered the house, and the house was spotless. A set of black leather sofas was placed in the living room, a mahogany coffee table, and the dining room also had wine red mahogany furniture.

Chen Zilin looked at the spotless floor of her sister's house and felt that there was nowhere to put her feet, and there was nowhere to put the souvenirs in the snakeskin bag in her hand.

"Zilin come in quickly!" said the eldest sister, and took a pair of handmade slippers and placed them at Chen Zilin's feet.

"I'm here as soon as I'm here. What else do I bring? I have everything at home now." Brother-in-law Zhan Hongwei sat motionless on the sofa.

The eldest sister took the things and took them into the kitchen. Chen Zilin sat on the sofa, and Zhan Hong brought Zilin a cup of tea.

"Zilin, what are you busy with recently?" Zhan Hongwei asked Chen Zilin.

"I bought a van, opened a store, collected some local products and sold them." Chen Zilin told the truth.

"Oh, Zilin has started a business? Is his brain very flexible? How is the benefit?" Zhan Hong asked while drinking tea.

"Thank you for the current policy. The current policy is very good, and life is getting better and better. I have been doing well in the past two years, especially this year. The local specialties I acquired are selling well and I made a little money." Chen Zilin talked about his Business is running smoothly.

"Well, the current policy is really good. You have to seize the opportunity and tell me if you need my help." The elder brother-in-law said.

Chen Zihui took some fruits from the kitchen. The apples in August were bright and green. The elder sister took a fruit knife and peeled them and handed them to Chen Zilin.

"Brother-in-law, sister, I'm here this time because I want to invite everyone to go home for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Since the last reunion, fewer people have gone back. Mom and Dad are also talking about you. I just want our brothers and sisters to get together again on the Mid-Autumn Festival, brother-in-law and sister, what are your opinions?"

The eldest sister and the eldest brother-in-law looked at each other and said, "I have no problem. Looking at your brother-in-law's time, he is now the boss, and the time is not under his control. He spends every day socializing outside, and fewer people come back."

"Let's watch the time. We'll go back if we can. Are the two old men okay?" Zhan Hongwei asked while eating an apple cut by Chen Zihui.

"The body is tough, the deafness is not deaf or the eyesight is not bad, that is, Dad's teeth are not very good, there are only a few left." Chen Zilin shook his head when he remembered his father's teeth. So bad.

"It's good to have a tough body, but your teeth are not very good. When you cook, try to be soft and soft." Zhan Hongwei said.

The three of them chatted for a while, and the brother-in-law said, "It's getting late, Zihui, let's go out to eat. It's rare for Zilin to come home. I'll invite some friends to accompany Zilin for two drinks."

"Brother-in-law, just eat at home, you don't need to spend that spare money." Chen Zilin knew that it was not easy for everyone to make money.

"Zilin, it's better now than before. Your brother-in-law and I have raised wages. Zhan Hao has already started an internship and his family is well-off." Chen Zihui also said.

Zhan Hongwei made a few phone calls, made an appointment with four or five people, and then took Chen Zilin to a restaurant, which is considered a luxury restaurant in the county seat.

In the past few years, the county town is preparing to start building the railway, and many workers have come in the first phase. I heard that it will take six or seven years to build the railway.

Many railway workers are here, and some contractors often invite people from the railway bureau to eat here.

The hotel reserved a private room for Zhan Hongwei and them, and when they arrived, someone had already arrived.

Zhan Hongwei introduced some of the people present to Chen Zilin, including the foreman, the railway bureau, the tax bureau, and the industry and commerce bureau.

"This is my youngest brother-in-law. Now I'm doing some small business myself, and everyone will take care of me in the future." Zhan Hongwei then said to Chen Zilin:

"Zilin, these are my good buddies. If you want to develop in the future, you can't do without their help. You remember these people here today. Each of them offers 4 glasses of wine to recognize the brothers."

Only then did Chen Zilin understand that his brother-in-law was building a bridge for him.

　The seventh of the Chen family is also changing, and this is the first person to act.As long as someone is there, don't be afraid of running out of firewood.Thank you all for your support and encouragement.I added one more today, I love you guys, meh!
