the longest dream

Chapter 223 Become a Thai!
There is no free lunch in the world.

Even if Qiao Yue was stubborn, and the Qiao family were not fools, how could they be taken advantage of and borrow money at low interest rates?

Even if he was really willing to borrow it, Zhang Qing couldn't borrow it.

Of course, Zhang Qing's property is indeed attractive.

Although we can't talk about the scale at the moment, just relying on the shares of "Ming Pao", regardless of the economic content, the political weight of it is enough to make anyone tempted.

But this is not for sale. After he completely takes over, he plans to further delist and privatize it, so how can he share it with others.

Zhang Qing refused, but he didn't say it so bluntly, he just sounded stupid.

After Qiao Yue yelled for a while, she joked and hung up the phone.

The weather was not beautiful, and around ten o'clock at night, there was an old trend in Bayi Village.

People in the mainland don't know much about the old outlets in western Xinjiang. There are also times when there are strong winds in the inland provinces, but most of the time is relatively short, not exceeding one or two hours.

And once there is an old trend in Xijiang, it will usually last for two or three days, and sometimes it will blow for half a month.

When the wind is strong, big trees as thick as the tank mouth can be blown down.

The strong wind outside the window rolled up the snow and sand, and the world was in chaos.

But in this kind of weather, behind the half-meter-thick wall and in the warm room, I feel particularly safe.

The family members have long been used to this kind of weather, and they just complained a few words. Most of the newly posted Spring Festival couplets outside are hard to keep...

"Oops, there's a power outage."

The electric light flickered, then plunged into darkness, and exclamations came from the next room.

But don't panic, these days, power outages are actually a common occurrence, and candles have long been prepared at home.

After a while, Zhou Yanyan came in with a candle in her hand, and said with a smile, "The power is out! I've been outside for a long time, and I'm not used to the sudden power outage when I come back."

Zhang Qing laughed and said, "Now I feel like I'm really home, right?"

Zhou Yanyan nodded with a grin, put the candle on the table, then sat down next to the chair near the door, and said, "It's getting old, and now I can't go out to celebrate the New Year tomorrow. I don't know if I can call tomorrow, maybe the wire The rod broke off."

Outside is the howling wind, and the dark night makes the room warm and quiet.

Zhang Qing smiled and said, "This year you will be very busy and work hard."

Zhou Yanyan didn't care: "I'm busy, I have nothing to do when I'm idle."

Zhang Qing asked: "Do you like being famous...it's the feeling of standing on the stage and countless people cheering for you."

Zhou Yanyan was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "There are still people who don't like it... yes, you don't like it. But you are not an ordinary person, we all like it. Lanlan likes it too. She wears my clothes at home and learns to hold concerts. Well... my friends in the back, how are you?" Hao Xiaoxiao stopped.

Zhang Qing laughed and said: "Little girls are like this."

Zhou Yanyan asked, "Will you make her a star in the future?"

Zhang Qing thought for a while and said: "It's not impossible. But it's better to study more and become a management talent. It's the same with you. It's impossible for a person to be beautiful for a lifetime. You have to be clear about this. How many beautiful women who have passed the age, If it is well maintained, it will become elegant, and if it is not well maintained, it will disappear from the public.”

Zhou Yanyan smiled and said: "I know, my mother is. You haven't seen the photos of her when she was young, she is much prettier than me. Then she died, and she followed the wrong man."

Zhang Qing reminded: "Your situation is different from your mother's. You can live a wonderful life on your own. Not much else to say, your mother's situation is mostly due to financial constraints, but you are now a little rich woman. "

Zhou Yanyan curled her lips: "What kind of little rich woman am I? What you said to that guy from Keshi is reasonable. You dragged me into paying a lot of money, and I owe you a lot of money."

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "What's the point of saying this, I will ask you if you want money?"

Zhou Yanyan giggled and sat for a while without saying a word. Although it was very quiet, she liked it very much.

But I didn't stay too long, I was afraid that the adults next door would think too much, so I got up and said: "I went to find Lanlan, she also said that she will keep the New Year's Eve tonight, I think she will fall asleep soon."

Zhang Qing nodded and said with a smile, "Go."

Zhou Yanyan walked outside, but just as she stepped out of the door, she stood still again, looked back at Zhang Qing and said with a smile, "Qingzi, Happy Chinese New Year."

Zhang Qing laughed and said, "Okay, you have a happy Chinese New Year too."

Zhou Yanyan tilted her head and smiled, then turned and left.

……

Although this year's Chinese New Year is due to the old trend, I didn't start visiting relatives seriously until the third year of junior high school.

But Zhang Qing still likes this year in his hometown very much.

He really didn't realize how good he was, and the whole family brought the "oil bottle" Zhou Yanyan back to Jiefang Village, just like the past so many years, to pay New Year's greetings to the former neighbors.

Grandma Mao, Grandma Wang, Aunt Zheng...

This time there is no empty hand, Li Tie has learned to drive a tractor, and half of his pocket is a new year gift.

Take two sips from the east family and listen to the adults talking about the past and the difficulties in the past, and two sips from the west family and listen to them talk about the current family problems.

Just don't let him praise him, there is nothing to praise, he is still the same person.

Lunch was still eaten at Tie Zhu's house. Because Dongzi took over Huozi's cattle and sheep business, the family situation of Tie Zhu's family improved greatly.

The family was overwhelmed with three children going to college at the same time, but this year it finally got better.

When the adults were talking, Zhang Qing told Dongzi about Zhou Yanyan's feathered uncle, and finally said: "Brother Dongzi, go and investigate him, find evidence, and then have someone sue him. I will give you [-] yuan for the activity." Funding, the premise is that there must be real evidence and no false accusations."

Dongzi was originally in the society, and in the past year, he has flourished among the three religions and nine streams. He smiled and said: "This person is dishonest, there must be evidence. Don't give me any money, I will get it. I happen to have two friends Over there, I will go there in a few days."

After finishing speaking, his eyes fell on Zhou Yanyan who was sitting by the stove with Zhang Lan, and said with emotion: "Last year...you will be on TV this year. Qingzi, you are too awesome, Hong Kong Island holds a concert. If it was like this last year Huozi would not dare to have that dream after eating a hundred leopards."

Zhang Qing chuckled and asked, "Business is good this year?"

Dongzi laughed and said: "It's okay. But this year, there won't be much profit, and the harvest will be cattle and sheep. Next year will definitely be good!"

Zhang Qing heard from Zhang Guozhong that after winter, Dongzi personally delivered [-] yuan in dividends.

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "Don't pay dividends either. Since you are making money, you can just pay back the capital next year. You have worked so hard, and our family does nothing. It is not appropriate to just sit and collect half of the profit when you only pay a share of the capital."

Dongzi shook his head and said in a low voice: "Don't talk about it. You don't know our old man. You hate ungrateful people the most. They beat me all winter, so I'm afraid of this. You don't want me to have a good year, do you? ?”

Zhang Qing laughed, took a sip of the fragrant milk tea, and said, "That's fine, let my dad tell Tie Zhuda later."

Dongzi is happy, of course he doesn't want to share half of the money he earns from leading cattle and sheep in muddy roads in windy and rainy days, but he dare not say it...

Zhang Qing also understood his temperament, so he proposed it on his own initiative. Otherwise, it would not be worthwhile to wait for a quarrel to affect the friendship of the older generation.

It's just that in his career circle, there must be no shadow of Dongzi.

"Qingzi, you want to take your parents to Pingjing?"

At the dinner table, Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law asked enviously.

After Zhang Qing swallowed the lamb chops in his mouth, he said with a smile: "It would be better if they are willing to live here. If they are not used to living here, they should take a trip. In fact, the climate in Pingjing is similar to ours, except that it is not so cold. The snow is not so thick, and there is heating, which is much better than Jiangjing City. The main family and friends are here, and they will miss it when they go. I don’t force it, and I can live wherever I am happy.”

Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law was envious, and said, "I don't dare to think about it in my life..."

Dongzi was not convinced, and said: "Mom, it's too early for you to say that. Look at it in three years, and I will definitely let you go to the capital for a visit."

Sun Yuehe said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, what are you in a hurry for? Your son is capable, and there are three college students on top. Qiangqiang and Lili are about to graduate soon, right? Your good days are just behind you!"

Zhang Guozhong was envious: "These days, three college students came out of one family, and Brother Tie Zhu and his sister-in-law will fall into the nest of happiness in the future!"

Western Xinjiang is a remote frontier. I don’t know that the distribution system for college students has been changed in the past few years. They still equate college students with state officials.

But generally speaking, Iron Casting will indeed get better and better.

After eating and talking for a while, Zhang Qing's family took their leave and went to the old house to have a look. The road was blocked by heavy snow and it was difficult to get in, so they left.

……

At noon on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Zhang family and the Sun family all arrived in Eqi County.

In the evening, there is a fireworks display in the square. Eqi County is connected to the Division Headquarters of the Construction Corps, one east and one west, and both sides will be set off.

Although the fireworks here are simple and shabby compared to the National Day fireworks in Pingjing and the New Year's Day fireworks in Victoria Bay.

The whole family is still happy to see it.

After watching the fireworks, it was nearly twelve o'clock at night, and the family sat and talked.

Uncle Sun Mantang looked at the building and said with a smile to Zhang Qing: "The family sent your parents and Lanlan to Jiangjing City the year before last. The feeling at that time, the family didn't recover for many days after going back. Then Son, your grandfather also said that if your father has a good or bad thing, our family will confess you no matter what, and we can't let you drop out of school. Who would have thought that today will happen?"

The elder sister-in-law Li Yun said with a smile: "I really couldn't cry that day. Your mother cried too, and we cried too. Your mother even asked Lanlan to kowtow to us. After sending them to the train, both of your uncles were wiping away tears." , I’m afraid it’s the last time I’ll see you. I’m fine now, I’ve come out of the pot of bitter juice. Now your mother doesn’t expect anything else, but waits for you to get married and have more sons..."

Zhang Qing wasn't shy either, and said with a smile, "Big concubine, let's have one now, family planning."

Li Yun said boldly: "It's okay! Our family can afford the fine! We don't eat public meals, so how many children will he care about us?"

The eldest cousin Sun Haiping was about to escape from the prison, she was very happy, hugged her tiger and smiled and said: "If you can't do it, go to a foreign country to register. I heard people say that Thai men can marry several wives. When the time comes, one wife will give birth to two. Don't have a child?"

The whole family laughed, and the most embarrassing thing was that no matter men, women or children, they all looked at Zhou Yanyan subconsciously at the same time.

Zhou Yanyan's face was flushed, but she glanced at Zhang Qing. Seeing his speechless embarrassment, she pursed her lips and lowered her head...
