Chapter 408 Stupid Relatives

No one asks the poor in the downtown area, and the rich has distant relatives in the mountains.

In the past, Gu Yuan's family background was only a little above the well-off level, otherwise it would not have been so difficult to buy a house in the city in his previous life.

Now that you have crossed several strata at once, you will definitely have to borrow money.

And most of these relatives who borrow money have this mentality: You are already so rich, lending me a dozen or two hundred thousand is nothing, I have a net worth of several billion, and I can't spend it all anyway, so why not Help them.

and.

From the moment they asked, they had no intention of paying back the money.

What's interesting is that these relatives are all very far apart. Not only does Gu Yuan not know them, but they don't even know about them. Even if the old man or the old lady comes, it will take them a long time to realize that they actually have such a relative. The relationship is as long as the mountain road, and they have not even moved around for decades.

It’s easy to deal with such relatives.

The old couple refused with the same tone: "The money belongs to our son, and we can't make the decision for him. He has had his own opinions since he was a child, and what we say doesn't count."

If the other party still refuses to give up and finds Gu Yuan, Gu Yuan will simply use the word "drag".

There must be no exception when it comes to borrowing money.

Otherwise, there will be endless troubles in the future. That's not to say you can't borrow it. But if you lend money to one person, what will you do if you face other people who borrow money? If you don't lend money, you will definitely suffer complaints from others.

It is this truth that the common people do not suffer from the few.

and.

They are not trying to help the poor, but these people are obviously here to take advantage of the situation.

Because we are not familiar with each other, there is no need to care about what others think.

but.

The most troublesome thing is not borrowing money, but relying on connections to find a job, especially close relatives.

This is what Gu Xiaolong is like.

He stopped going to school in the second semester of his second year of high school and took his female classmate home to live together in an open and honest manner without going to school. His mother even cried to Yuan Xin that she could finally finish high school and get her diploma.

In terms of relationship, even though they are on the fifth server, the two families are still relatively close.

Because Lao Gu is a high school student, he can sometimes help with homework, so Gu Xiaolong sometimes comes to his house to do homework. But then the other party went to No. 3 Middle School, and the contact between the two gradually decreased. After all, No. 3 Middle School was known as the "Six Continent Ruffians Training Center."

Since Gu Yuan's college entrance examination, the two families have had less and less contact.

The night after the college entrance banquet, Gu Xiaolong's family of four rushed over. The coffee table in the living room was piled with a variety of fruits, drinks and wine, so they didn't come empty-handed.

This was the first time in his life that Gu Yuan saw Gu Xiaolong. Since Gu Xiaolong stopped going to school, he stayed at home and hardly went out. He used to be tall and strong, but now he has a round head and a round head, and he has gained a lot of fat. As for his girlfriend who has been living together for five or six years, she looks pretty, but her hair is dyed blond, which is really eye-catching.

It would probably take another six or seven years for the couple to get married. At that time, Gu Yuan also went with the old couple. At that time, their two children were already in kindergarten, and they called mom and dad at the wedding, which made some people at the banquet who didn't know the truth look confused.

'I don't know if they have received the certificate now. '

Gu Yuan was thinking in his heart, but he didn't inquire about the other party's private matters.

"Uncle, aunt, eat some fruit."

Ye Wenjun carried the fruit plate and placed the washed grapes and cut watermelon on the coffee table.

Gu Xiaolong's girlfriend glanced at Ye Wenjun and lowered her head calmly. She always felt that her blonde hair was quite fashionable, but after looking at Ye Wenjun's hair, she realized that the kind of full and shiny hair on TV existed, and she felt inexplicably inferior.

"I'm telling you!"

While Yuan Xin was pouring tea, she secretly pulled Gu Yuan to the kitchen and whispered: "They want to find a job for Xiaolong. If it is convenient for you, please arrange it. After all, you have often eaten at his house before. And You and he have grown up together, so you have to help him more or less. "

In the past, the old couple were too busy doing business and had no time to cook. They happened to have a food stall at their house, so they asked Gu Yuan to go over and have a bite. Yuan Xin always remembered this favor.

Gu Yuan smiled, "I don't eat for free, I paid for every meal. Speaking of money, his family still owes me two months' wages!"

In the second grade of junior high school, Lao Gu threw Gu Yuan to the construction site in order to sharpen him.

Moving bricks, pushing carts, and carrying mud buckets, he did whatever other workers did. He did no less work than others, and even did more. But after working for a summer vacation, he didn't even get a dime of wages.

Gu Yuan initially thought that the old couple had paid his wages in advance, and the old couple also thought that Gu Yuan had received his wages. Later, in the third grade of junior high school, Gu Yuan clamored to change his bicycle, but the old couple refused, so the summer vacation incident was revealed, and the family realized that the other party had never mentioned money at all.

Seeing Yuan Xing's face become serious, Gu Yuan shrugged, "Okay, I won't make it difficult for you. It's okay to cram one person into so many positions. However, I'm afraid they don't want an ordinary position."

"If I guess correctly, there is a high probability that they want to get the kind of job where they can get a lot of money while sitting in an office, blowing on the air conditioner, drinking tea, and reading newspapers."

"That won't happen, right?"

Yuan Xin stopped pouring tea for a moment, then turned around and said, "Is it possible that you are thinking too much? Maybe you just want an ordinary job?"

Gu Yuan put his arms around Yuan Xing's shoulders and explained in a low voice: "It's not like his family is having a hard time! The food stalls are still open, and his father is a small contractor. If he wants to work, it's not a job anywhere. He didn't go to high school. Did you ever see him work for a day after that?"

In fact, Gu Xiaolong's family is not the kind of poor people, let alone the kind of people without any connections.

To be honest, some children from rural families have parents who have been working in the fields or working in factories all their lives.

After children graduate/drop out of school, they really have no idea what they can do, because their parents cannot provide them with any experience, and they even have no way to find a job. They can only go out with the people in the village.

If you don't go to school, you will have to work hard.

Gu Yuan had a primary school classmate like this. He didn't finish junior high school, so he stopped studying. He worked on the construction site with his father, and later learned to make plumbers from a master. He left the profession two years ago, and now he can still do the work independently. .

Although it is tiring, I earn a lot.

Gu Xiaolong can "inherit his father's business". Even if he doesn't inherit it, he can help lighten the family's burden to some extent. He can lend a hand, pass the dishes, sweep the floor, and wash the dishes. But he didn't even want to sell his strength, so it would be a headache.

"That seems to be the case. I also heard someone say that he lies at home all day long and doesn't go out. He even has his meals delivered to his bedroom."

When Yuan Xin heard this, she realized what she was saying, and suddenly she became a little worried. "If it's really like what you said, what should we do?" "We'll see."

Gu Yuan shrugged.

After the mother and son finished chatting, they returned to the living room as if nothing happened.

After everyone chatted for a while, the other party's topic suddenly turned to the stupid things Gu Yuan did in elementary school and junior high school, such as sesame seeds and millet. I don’t know what’s going on with these kind of relatives, but they always like to bring up some dark history from that year, as if there is no other topic to bring them closer together.

With his parents around, Gu Yuan didn't fall out, he could only eat melon seeds and listen stupidly.

The aunt waited for the opportunity to come, and then revealed her intention:

"Gu Yuan, your cousin has been staying at home for several years and can't find a suitable job. Either this system is too harsh, or the rules and regulations are too annoying, or they are picking on your cousin in various ways. You see Let’s see if we can find a suitable position for your cousin.”

Gu Yuan secretly shook his head, which company doesn't have rules and regulations? Besides, you haven't even graduated from high school, which company would want you?

However, there are also positions suitable for Gu Xiaolong, such as assembly line, security, and driver, all of which do not require academic qualifications. Of course, this can't be said clearly. If someone comes through the back door, they definitely don't come here for this kind of job.

If you say it openly, they will think you look down on others.

Gu Yuan took out his cigarette and handed it to his uncle, and then to Gu Xiaolong, "What position do you want? Currently, there are two most profitable departments in the company. The first is the scientific research department of the electronics factory, and the second is Web Development Department, but both require a high level of expertise…”

When Gu Xiaolong heard about the most profitable department, his eyes immediately lit up, but when he heard that it required high professional knowledge, he was a little confused. He didn't even get a high school diploma. "Is there anyone who doesn't need that high professional knowledge?" ? A very profitable department at the same time?”

He added: "For example, I am the head of a certain department. Although I don't have a high degree of education, I still have certain talents in management."

"Cough cough!"

Lao Gu was drinking tea and almost spit out a mouthful of water.

Gu Yuan thought it was normal. This was a typical case of high ambition and low power. The less one has experienced severe beatings from society, the more one thinks one is one of the favored ones of heaven, but one whose talent is not appreciated. Once he takes action, the whole world will be shocked.

Then he glanced at the uncle and aunt sitting next to Gu Xiaolong. They didn't express the slightest objection to this.

Obviously.

Being too ambitious is not a problem of one person, but is caused by the family environment. But then again, if it weren't for the family environment, how could the other party have been lying at home for four or five years? If it were him, Yuan Xin would have beaten him out with a mango to find a job.

Without the prince's life, the prince's disease developed.

However, Gu Yuan decided to give another chance:
"The lowest level among the heads of major departments is a master's degree from 985, and if these people had not come in early, they might not be able to become the heads. Now, even if they are PhDs in the corresponding majors, unless they have considerable experience in other large factories, In addition to an excellent resume, you basically have to start from scratch.”

"If my cousin is willing to start from scratch, that's not to say no. To be a manager, you must first have a good understanding of the grassroots..."

in fact.

He is still willing to give Gu Xiaolong a hand, so in his heart he prefers that the other party go to the assembly line first, and if it is not the sales department, make certain achievements first.

It's a pity that the other party didn't understand the hint, but kept saying:
"How long will it take to start from scratch? Apart from the heads of each department, aren't there any other departments that don't require professional knowledge and can make money? It's best to have a little leisure time. By the way, there are also As for your sister-in-law, she has been idle for several years and wants to find a class. It is best for us to be in the same department. "

Gu Yuan was silent for a moment. He wanted to say that if there is such a good thing, please be sure to say it because he was looking for this kind of job in his previous life.

The most important thing is.

I can indeed open a department in the company and raise some idle people. But are we on a good relationship? Just because you gave me this gift of less than 500 yuan, I have to pay you a salary of 10,000 yuan every month? To support you for a lifetime?

Even Chu You and Li Qiao, he kicked them out to start their own businesses.

Her cousin did not go to college, so she went to a junior college to study accounting.

At this time, the aunt added next to her, "Even if the money is slightly less, we can accept it."

"Yes!"

The uncle also nodded.

At this time, even Yuan Xin couldn't stand listening anymore and covered her forehead.

What a stupid and helpless relative.

"Yes, I have!"

Gu Yuan put down the tea with a smile and directly started the 'Great Onmyoji', "So, the company does have such a position, rich and free, and there are not many things to do, and it is quite powerful, no matter what it is. No one is in charge of anything, but for now, there is only one position in the entire company.”

After hearing this, the aunt couldn't close her mouth with joy, clapped her hands and said with a smile, "This position is the most suitable for my Xiaolong. His girlfriend can wait until the second position becomes available before going to work."

"That!"

Gu Yuan nodded, "I will give up my position as chairman tomorrow..."

……

The farther away the relatives are, the more they have to cover their mouths when speaking, while the closer relatives have more to say.

Just like children can quarrel with their parents, even if their parents are angry, they will not care about it in the end because they are their own children. But if it is the daughter-in-law/son-in-law who does this, then I am afraid that she will be hated for the rest of her life.

For example, Chaozi from the second aunt's family didn't even graduate from junior high school.

Of the five Lao Gu brothers and sisters, only Lao Gu went to school. The others really couldn't write much except their own names, and even many words had to be represented by pictures.

Because of the good relationship, when the second aunt's family came to visit, Gu Yuan said very straightforwardly:
"He doesn't have enough academic qualifications to do many high-end jobs, so he can only do hard work. If you are willing, just give him to me, and I will throw him into the workshop to train for a few years. What others do, he does, I won’t tolerate it either.”

"When he can stand alone, I can help him and open a small factory. If he can't stand alone, then he can be a manager, or at least be a workshop director. Then he won't have to worry about food and drink in the future. If you can't bear it, then forget it."

After talking about this, the second aunt didn’t waste any nonsense and said directly:

"Then I'll leave him to you. If he doesn't obey, just beat him!"
