80 widows in the control group, eating melons and raising cubs are poor and happy

Pay back?

Bai Liu frowned. She didn't remember that she had borrowed money from Zhou Xiangnan. She rarely had financial relationships with people.

But Zhou Xiangnan spoke with determination and stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling man, so Song Jiaying could only bring him into the house.

"We just came back and there is no tea. Can plain water be used?" Song Jiaying said casually.

Zhou Xiangnan nodded with good temper: "Understood, I'll just drink plain water. Do you want tea? A friend shipped a batch of tea from the south some time ago. Yes, you know Wei Jianxin."

Bai Liu's eyes flashed. Wei Jianxin was the husband of Zhou Xiangnan's former sister-in-law Chen Manyue. He had always had a good relationship with Zhou Xiangnan. In fact, the relationship between the two was a bit strange.

I don't know what Zhou Xiangnan promised that made Wei Jianxin follow him wholeheartedly.

Song Jiaying understood immediately as his eyes turned. He turned to look at Bai Liu: "Being a driver is a very popular profession, but it's not easy to get a driver's license now. Don't even think about buying a car."

Bai Liu does have the idea of ​​taking the driver's license test. She occasionally goes to Hong Kong City with Tangdou. There are many private cars in Hong Kong City, which is also convenient and fast.

Well, who doesn’t want to drive a small car.

"That won't work. I firmly believe that there will be more and more cars in China in the future. This is the trend." Bai Liu firmly believed.

Zhou Xiangnan listened to their conversation and gradually figured out the secret.

Does this tell him that they don't care about his deliberate overtures?Or do you mean you don’t want to accept his olive branch?
Zhou Xiangnan pretended not to understand, and added with a smile: "I have the same idea as Bai Liu. You know that there are smuggled goods in the south. Needs in the country must be found ways to be met. Smuggling is wrong, but it reflects the lack of supplies."

"The future belongs to those who are capable, and planning is far from enough."

Bai Liu felt helpless, but had to admit that Zhou Xiangnan had some discernment.

She said casually: "We heard about you on the way home. You took over the land in the new textile factory area. What are you going to do?"

"That place is not small. It has a lot to offer." Song Jiaying followed suit.

Zhou Xiangnan was extremely calm and said in a deep voice: "The rumors outside are wrong. I didn't buy it. It didn't say that the land is not allowed to be bought and sold. Even if I were asked to buy it, I wouldn't have the money. Let outsiders say whatever they want, but I have to tell you. Clearly, that is the land entrusted to me by the army to build a house."

The land still belonged to the army in name, but the ownership of the property on the ground, namely the house, was shared by Zhou Xiangnan. Zhou Xiangnan was playing a trick with nothing.

Of course, the interests involved are huge and there are more beneficiaries. Even if someone sees it clearly, they will not expose it.

Bai Liu and Song Jiaying looked at each other, and their minds coincided with each other.

"You shouldn't tell us," she looked at Zhou Xiangnan inquiringly, "We are far away in the capital and are not involved."

Good or bad has nothing to do with them, they can't afford to keep it secret.

Zhou Xiangnan looked like he was wrong: "You can't say that. I already owe you money. I used to work in a public institution. Now that I have the opportunity, I can't borrow money and not pay it back."

When he said he owed money, Bai Liu frowned and asked, "Did you remember wrongly? There is no financial relationship between us -"

"Yes!" Zhou Xiangnan said resolutely, "Do you still remember the gold nugget you picked up in the mountain col when Fubao and Tangdou were about five years old?"

ha?
If he talked about Nugget Gold, Bai Liu would indeed be a little impressed, or even deeply impressed.At that time, she took Tangdou and Fubao to play in the mountains. The two children fell into a shallow hillside. When she went down to rescue the two children, she accidentally found a nugget of gold.

She thought it was something Fubao had brought, so she asked Zhou Zhijun to hand it over to Zhou Xiangnan. Subsequently, Zhou Zhijun spread the word that Zhou Xiangnan would sell it for compensation in the future, but no one mentioned this matter for so many years.

Bai Liu deliberately forgot about this incident, not because she was upright and didn't care about money, but because she wanted to avoid this happening again.

To take a step back, if the safety of jelly beans were exchanged for money, just the thought of it made her feel scared and frightened.

She doesn't allow herself to have similar thoughts with anyone, so she would rather tell herself and everyone that they are lucky, and Tangdou can just be an ordinary stinky kid.

With the idea of ​​spending money to ward off disaster, she had forgotten about the money.

But after many years, Zhou Xiangnan suddenly mentioned this matter?

The expression on Bai Liu's face was a little shocked. Zhou Xiangnan knew that she had remembered it, so he smiled and explained to Song Jiaying: "You were not there at the time, and maybe Bai Liu didn't mention it to you afterwards. Bai Liu gave me the gold nugget, so I couldn't take action. , the pressure has reached now. Some time ago, I had to form a construction team and use various materials, so I had no choice but to sell the gold nuggets."

"I'm ashamed to say it. All my family's money has been advanced into it, so I can't pay you back in cash, but I can't pretend to forget or not know."

Zhou Xiangnan said to Bai Liu in a consultative tone, "It takes a long time to build a house. I don't have any more money for a while. See if you can include the gold nugget money into the project."

Bai Liu was stunned for a moment, is this okay?
Seeing that she was silent, Zhou Xiangnan tried to discuss with Song Jiaying: "I can't get the money out for a while, which may delay your affairs. The project has both losses and profits, and I know this is unfair to you. Otherwise, we will keep private I will draw up an agreement below. If the project at the base suffers a loss, any time I do business in the future, you will be counted as a stake."

"I will accept this account for the rest of my life!"

What the hell!

Bai Liu was greatly shocked. She didn't know how to evaluate this matter after considering everything she had seen and heard in her two lifetimes.

Theoretically speaking, Zhou Xiangnan was so righteous that anyone who knew the inside story would say a word of righteousness, but she didn't believe it would be that simple.

She never mentioned the nugget gold matter, just to show that she didn't care, and Zhou Xiangnan didn't mention it much before.

So now that he is settling old scores and insisting on paying her back, can Zhou Xiangnan be so innocent?
What a joke.

"No need." Bai Liu refused immediately, "You handled the nugget gold, and it was only discovered because Fubao fell into the mountain col. You also know Fubao's good luck, so there's no need-"

Zhou Xiangnan immediately shook his head: "We all know that Fubao is lucky, but the child doesn't know the goods. If you hadn't found the gold, it would have been buried. I can't take advantage of this money. The purity of nugget gold is not high, but the weight is not small. I After finding someone to refine it, I sold it at 54 per gram for [-]..."

He said, taking out a piece of paper and starting to write the agreement by hand.

Bai Liu stopped again: "No need, it will be troublesome for you to find someone to refine and sell it. You can just put the money on Fu Bao."

What is she doing as an outsider?

"You don't have to be so polite," Song Jiaying paused for a moment, then said with a half-smile, "We are far away in the capital and can't help you in any way. We feel guilty for taking money or buying shares."

Zhou Xiangnan is still persistent and stubborn: "I must pay you back, otherwise my conscience will be uneasy!"

Oh, it turns out he is a kind man. (End of chapter)
