There is another thing that deified He Yunchang even more. He Yunchang's wife wanted to buy a house in the provincial capital, so He Yunchang accompanied him to the newly developed high-end real estate in Longzhong City to choose a house. Unexpectedly, it was exactly the same as last time. The sales lady was confused no matter how she looked at it. People who don’t want to be able to afford a house have repeatedly emphasized that this is a high-end community.
This time, He Yunchang was not annoyed, but kept asking about the location and structure of the house. The sales lady rolled her eyes reluctantly as she answered, and then simply stayed away.
He Yunchang made choices and was never in a hurry to express his position, so that he later alerted the security guard. He Yunchang suddenly got into his head and directly called the manager to question him. The final result was beyond anyone's imagination. He Yunchang actually bought the entire unit. It also shocked everyone present.
In addition, He Yunchang was addicted to gambling. He couldn't get enough of the local gambling, so he went directly to the Macau casino to gamble and lost tens of millions, but he didn't care, as if he just spent a few dollars.
Also, He Yunchang was addicted to superstition and built a large number of temples in Guozigou. He always thought that his wealth today was favored and blessed by God, and he spared no expense to build a series of temples and towers. Some people joked: "Boss He will not dig coal in the future. Now, his temple can be developed into a tourist attraction!"
There are many similar anecdotes about these, and their authenticity needs to be verified, but it can be directly explained that He Yunchang, who became rich overnight, was just like the "Shanxi merchants" back then. He did not convert the money he earned into industrial capital, but squandered it. Greedy for pleasure.
In fact, if you analyze the history of the Dongjiang Coal boss's fortune, from poverty to income, it is only in a short period of more than ten years. Within a dozen years, the country has undergone earth-shaking changes. Rapid economic development is inseparable from a continuous source of resources. energy power, and in the upstream of this industrial chain, it has also indirectly supported the emergence of coal bosses one after another. They are products of the development of the times and "freaks" born on the path of exploring socialism with Chinese characteristics.
Shen Tong had also heard about some of the astonishing actions of the richest man in Dongquan before. Zhang Xiaoshi's words amazed him and cast an even more mysterious tone.
As the car drove into Fuchuan Township, there was a constant flow of coal trucks one after another. Although it was winter, the vegetation on both sides of the road was covered with a thick layer of dust, and even the frozen river could be seen through the texture. Looking at the embedded black deposits and the holes in the mountains in the distance that were excavated and abandoned one after another, it is like a beautiful woman whose face is covered with acne, and it is so devastated that it makes people sigh.
Economic development comes at the expense of the ecological environment. Shitou Mountain in Shihe Town is a bloody example. Unexpectedly, Fuchuan Township is much more serious than imagined. No wonder Wujiang Kaixin is determined to crack down on private digging and excessive mining. It is simply a waste of natural resources. The situation in Dongquan County ten years ago is different from that of Dongquan County ten years later.
Shen Tong was just reminiscing about He Yunchang's amazing feat, but when he saw the scene in front of him, he suddenly felt as sick as eating flies. These coal bosses would rather spend their money on building superstitious temples for their own preferences than plant a tree for them. It is really sad to benefit future generations.
Before entering Guozigou Village, Shen Tong saw a three-story small western-style building with white walls and red tiles from a distance. It was in sharp contrast to the low and dilapidated houses around it. Zhang Xiaoshi told him that it was He Yunchang. Even if Zhang Xiaoshi didn't introduce him, Shen Tong could guess it.
The car stopped in front of He Yunchang's house. Shen Tong felt more intuitively about the home of the richest man in Dongquan. It was a typical northern courtyard house, a small western-style building with modern characteristics facing north and south. The walls were covered with white tiles, and under the sunlight It is very dazzling below, and the high walls on the east and west sides are made of traditional craftsmanship in Dongjiang Province. The rows of green tiles imitating the Ming and Qing dynasties look antique. Look at the vermilion door, which is embedded with gilt rivets like the Forbidden City. It is very visual. impact.
The ferocious-looking stone lions on both sides of the door are lying on the spot, staring into the distance. A plaque is hung above the door, which reads "Shi Hua Di Wei". There are dragons and phoenixes climbing on the pillars, and the plumes are shining. If you look closely, you can see that in the Under the door plaque, there is actually a door that has disappeared long ago. It seems that the rumors about his superstition are not false at all.
Shen Tong secretly sighed, who said He Yunchang was uneducated? Just the scene at the door, which uses stone carvings, brick carvings and wood carvings, exquisite craftsmanship and good appearance, is enough to show He Yunchang's level of care, traditional techniques and foreign techniques. The buildings echo each other from afar, and the combination of Chinese and Western styles is amazing.
Zhang Xiaoshi quietly told him that the pair of big lions at the door alone cost nearly 500,000 yuan. It is said that the raw materials for processing were marble brought all the way from Yunnan, and he hired a famous sculptor from Dongjiang to polish it carefully for nearly three months. Just finished.
What is the concept of 500,000? It is equivalent to Shen Tong's salary for 60 years without eating or drinking. Shen Tong stroked the lion's head and sighed secretly.
Zhang Xiaoshi knocked on the door, and after a while a middle-aged woman came out and said impatiently: "Knock on what? It's so early in the morning, it's not peaceful, who are you looking for!"
Shen Tong judged from the woman's dress and age that this person was not He Yunchang's wife, but her disdainful expression and domineering attitude had the potential to make people feel extremely disgusted.
Zhang Xiaoshi was different. He said with a smile: "Sister Caiqin, you don't know me anymore. I am Xiao Zhang from the Land and Resources Bureau. Last time I came to Boss He's house, you cooked us a sumptuous lunch. Your Your superb cooking skills make me drool when I think about it now. I don’t have time today to come and try your cooking again. I wonder if you can appreciate it!”
The woman's face suddenly lit up with joy, and her face was full of folds. Regardless of whether she remembered who the other person was, she smiled and said: "It's Xiao Zhang, my cooking skills are so good!"
"Of course, your cooking skills would be enough to be employed as the head chef of the Dongquan Hotel. What's more, you are so young and beautiful, and with your skillful hands, I think it will be difficult even if the business is not booming." Zhang Xiaoshi continued to compliment. .
The woman couldn't be happier, she touched her face with her hands and said, "You are already an old woman, but you are still young and beautiful. I don't know how much trouble it will cause if my mouth hears this. In fact, I was pretty good-looking when I was young." That's fair..." After being praised by Zhang Xiaoshi, the woman was completely immersed in the sweet words.
Shen Tong couldn't help but admire Zhang Xiaoshi's good talk. He praised a woman who was so fierce just now with just a few words. No wonder Secretary Wu wanted to bring such a person to his side. It is true that everyone has certain strengths. This is what Shen Tong wants. Strengthen learning areas,
