The old man was very rich.

According to the national conditions of Daxia, some big bosses who are not so well-born but very rich are either called coal bosses or mine bosses.

As a resource-based heavy industrial base, Gangcheng is also a place where you can make a fortune when the dynamite goes off.

Because of the contracting relationship, the things that are blasted out of the mountain naturally belong to the contractor.

Therefore, it is not uncommon to get rich overnight in Gangcheng, including my second cousin and his family.

They were also family members of Gangcheng state-owned enterprises at that time, and they lived in the family compound of state-owned enterprises. Later, because the steel plant had problems with its efficiency, their wages were greatly reduced.

In order to support her family, my cousin left her uncle-in-law alone to continue working in the factory, and she chose to follow some enterprise employees and start a business boldly.

Many of them have developed feelings for each other after decades of getting along. Even if they earn money and buy commercial houses later, they are willing to live in the same community as neighbors.

So much so that the community they live in now has become the second family compound.

Compared with our family who moved to Jincheng to give me a good education, my cousin's family is already very wealthy.

There are not many rich people in Gangcheng now, nor are there many poor people. Most of them maintain a middle-class level, which is unique in the whole Shuzhou.

And today's so-called class reunion is probably some rich guy who is idle every day and plans to gather his past friends to highlight his status.

After all, it is difficult for decent people to live every day. Even if they are rich, is it not good to make money? Or is it not good to be a lady in a nightclub?

What's the point of bragging with a bunch of classmates?

...

Driving all the way, we arrived at the famous Kaiyuan Hotel in Gangcheng.

I heard that before the boss of a state-owned enterprise was arrested and put in jail two years ago, he often entertained leaders in this hotel, and he also used wild game.

You know, in that era, those things were protected animals...

The key is that this hotel has nothing to do, which shows how strong the other party's backing is.

The consumption here is not low, at least it is not a family like my second cousin who can come here to consume casually.

"I heard that the chef here is very skilled, you are lucky today."

My second cousin laughed and took me into the hotel.

These hotels were built after I left the steel city, and I have no impression of them at all.

Under the guidance of the waiter, we walked all the way to the private room.

When we pushed the door open, a lively scene came into our eyes.

A group of men and women were already sitting inside, joking with each other, talking about the bits and pieces of school days.

"Hey! Lao Liu is here! Come on, come on, I was just talking about you." A man who was about the same age as my second cousin smiled and asked my second cousin to sit down, "This is..."

"My cousin, there is no one to cook at home, so I brought him here to eat." My second cousin said with a smile.

"Ah, hello, hello, please sit down." The big brother greeted me very enthusiastically after being stunned for two seconds, "Waiter, add a set of bowls and chopsticks!"

"Okay, please wait."

"Okay, okay, everyone, be quiet for a while. Today we are gathered together mainly to welcome our Li Xueyang, the campus beauty of Li University, back to Gangcheng to invest! Today, everyone is welcome, don't be polite, we haven't seen each other for many years, let's communicate and communicate well."

It was only then that I noticed that there was a pretty woman sitting on the main seat in the private room.

At first glance, it doesn't look amazing, but a closer look reveals a unique charm.

She has a kind of softness of the Jiangnan water town, and a kind of petite and exquisite delicacy, which makes her seem a little out of place among the thirty-something men and the heavily made-up women.

It's like a high school student mixed in with a group of social people.

She looks very well-behaved, with a kind of beauty of a beautiful girl from a small family.

The action of picking up food while eating is also exquisite like a lady from a noble family, and it is obvious that she is very well-educated.

And I also noticed that my second cousin always sneaks glances at her intentionally or unintentionally.

Good guy, second cousin, you are a toad wanting to fuck a frog, you are ugly but you want to be beautiful.

It's not that I have any prejudice or aggression against my second cousin's appearance, but he is so young, and you... you must have eaten a lot in these years, your belly is round, like a five-month-old child, the probability that he will look at you is really low.

Although I am still a little confident in my current status, but... I am not confident enough

This is the point.

I can't help it...

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the eating session is over, and naturally it's time for the social session that adults love the most.

Who would like to find a bunch of old classmates who haven't seen each other for a long time to exchange feelings?

Isn't it because you need help?

That kind of pure classmate reunion has died out long before graduation.

Sure enough, after everyone has eaten enough, they start to exchange feelings and resources with each other.

Although I was busy eating, after all, I have achieved success in cultivation and have excellent hearing. Sure enough, I heard who is this general manager, who is that director, who is this director, who is that section chief.

There are really many turtles in shallow water, and there are big brothers everywhere.

Those who borrow money, those who ask for help, those who use connections, and those who are scheming to go out and get a room for their own hat, it can be said that life is full of various forms and a good show.

In this regard, I can only say that I will put aside the desire to help others and respect the fate of others.

Just when I was enjoying my meal, I saw my second cousin staggering towards Li Xueyang with his wine glass.

Wow... he is really brave.

Before my second cousin could sit down, the seat he was going to sit was taken away by someone else.
