With the shopping system in hand, I became the richest man in the 1980s

Chapter 72: Rise
"Thank you Lanlan."

Song Wanrou took the sweet soup handed to her by Qinglan with a smile, and ate the glutinous rice balls, peanuts, lotus seeds, red dates, etc. one mouthful at a time, leaving no soup at all.

Seeing Song Wanrou finish all the food, Chu Qinglan smiled and said, "I wish you and your elder brother and sister-in-law will have a baby soon, and live happily ever after."

Song Wanrou smiled and said, "Thank you, Lanlan."

Chu Qinglan took the bowl away and said to Song Wanrou with a smile: "Sister-in-law, please sit for a while. I'll go out and take a look."

Song Wanrou replied softly: "Okay, go ahead and get busy."

At ten o'clock, Song Wanrou also went out to accompany Chu Qingjiang to welcome the guests.

They didn't invite many guests to their wedding.

There were only three tables of guests at Song Wanrou's wedding.

Chu Qingjiang also prepared three wedding tables for the distinguished guests he invited, such as the Wen family, Li Baohua's family, those leaders he knew because of the Wanjie Electrical Appliance Factory, and Gao Yi's brothers.

In addition, there were ten tables in total, including his relatives, old colleagues of his parents in the staff quarters, and his classmates and friends.

There are sixteen wedding tables in total.

Fortunately, their courtyard house is big enough, and the large living room in the main building of the second courtyard can accommodate six tables on the upper and lower floors.

The large living room on the first floor of the main building is occupied by distinguished guests.

The large living room on the second floor was filled with my wife’s family members.

The large living rooms in the east and west wings are where relatives, friends, classmates and guests from the family compound sit.

Because there were many guests to be entertained, Lin Daxia was worried that some people would mess with the valuables in the room with too many hands and too little manpower.

She also asked her son and daughter to move the valuables in the living room into their room and then lock the door.

Otherwise, if you really lose something or break precious bottles and jars, not only will it be a bad omen, but you cannot argue with your guests on such a happy occasion and will have to suffer the loss in silence.

Although the public places in the entire courtyard are equipped with surveillance systems, if something really happens and it is exposed, it will make everyone embarrassed, which will be bad.

If the hosts do these things first, nothing will happen to the guests.

On this happy day, they just want to spend it peacefully and happily, without any trouble.

At twelve o'clock, the banquet officially began.

Chu Qingjiang and Song Wanrou, along with their best man and bridesmaid, and accompanied by their parents, toasted to all the guests, thanking them for taking time out of their busy schedules to attend the wedding.

Hosting a wedding banquet is a happy, joyful, yet tiring event.

Although Song Wanrou was drinking fruit juice, she also drank a belly full of juice after accompanying him throughout the whole process.

The groom Chu Qingjiang was caught and forced to drink. Even though he had the foresight to take an alcohol-avoiding pill, he still drank until his stomach was bloated.

After finally toasting more than a dozen tables, they all rushed to the bathroom.

The people from the Wenren family who came to congratulate today were Wenren Bo and Jiang Qing, who came with old man Wenren He.

Chu Qingjiang and Song Wanrou both felt flattered.

The wedding gift they gave was a set of jade jewelry worth more than one million yuan.

Jade jewelry worth millions in this era will be worth at least hundreds of millions if auctioned in the future.

You can see the intentions of the people.

They also saw that Chu Qingjiang gave Wen Renbo and Jiang Qing a wedding gift of a luxury car worth one million, so they gave them equally valuable wedding gifts in return.

This jewelry brand also belongs to their Wenren family and its headquarters is in Hong Kong City.

After they finished drinking the wedding wine, they quickly said goodbye and left, just like the other leaders who came to attend the wedding banquet. After all, they are all busy people.

Chu Qingjiang also prepared a precious gift package for these distinguished guests.

Wenren’s return gift also included a box of Lingwu tea.

Old man Wenrenhe laughed happily and teased Chu Qingjiang, "Qingjiang, if you have a happy event in your family in the future, you must invite me again. If you don't invite me, I will be unhappy."

Chu Qingjiang also smiled and replied, "Okay, I will definitely invite you to come when there is a happy event in the future. You must show your face when the time comes!"

Wen Renhe laughed and said, "If you invite me, I will definitely come. Let's make it a deal."

Chu Qingjiang and Song Wanrou saw them out the door and watched them get in the car and leave. Then they turned back to the living room and continued to greet other guests.

Gao Yi, Liao Jiandong, Xia Hai, Rong Fei, Jiang Yan and others also came today and presented gifts.

After the banquet, they came over to say goodbye.

Chu Qingjiang apologized to them and said, "Dear brothers, I apologize for the poor hospitality today!"

Gao Yi laughed out loud and said, "No, no, you are the busiest groom today. We all understand. Let's leave today and drink together another day."

They came to attend the wedding banquet today and saw that Mr. Wen Renhe came in person, and many leaders of the same level as their fathers also came.

Gao Yi and the others also paid more attention to Chu Qingjiang.

This guy is really awesome!

His status soared into the sky like a rocket.

It had only been a short time, and they were already looking up at him.

The other guests who had finished the wedding banquet chatted with Chu Qingjiang and Song Wanrou for a few words before saying goodbye and leaving one after another.

Chu Qingjiang's classmates were also quite moved when they saw their old classmates who are now full of vigor and vitality.

"Who would have thought that our old classmate would be so amazing and become so successful so quickly."

"We should get in touch with this old classmate more often in the future to see if he can take care of us."

"With Qingjiang's chivalrous spirit, he can help. As long as we ask, he will definitely help."

These are all old classmates with whom Chu Qingjiang is relatively close and who have better personalities.

Chu Qingjiang would not invite classmates with whom he had a bad relationship to his wedding.

Like Chu Qingjiang, most of these old classmates have gone to the countryside.

Some students whose families were better off went to the countryside for a year or two, and their families found ways to help them find jobs and used their connections to transfer them back to the city.

But some classmates were like Chu Qingjiang, who had no connections at home and stayed in the countryside until the one or two years when all the educated youth could return to the city.

Some of my classmates successfully found jobs after returning to the city.

But some of my classmates are still doing odd jobs and just getting by, and cannot find a formal job.

It’s not that they don’t work hard, but the current employment environment is so cruel.

There are few jobs and they are passed down from generation to generation. Who will vacate a job for you?

Unless a new factory like Wanjie Electric Appliance Factory opens, there will be an opportunity to recruit workers. Where would there be jobs arranged for these educated youth who have returned to the city?
After most of the guests had left, Chu Qingjiang brought Song Wanrou to sit at their classmates' table and chat with them for a while.

Some classmates had other things to do, so they left early.

But there are still a few students who stay here, wanting to wait until Chu Qingjiang is free and then come over to chat with him.
