“Dad, my second son and I don’t know how to build furniture, so what can we do if we go there?
As older brothers, we can't help, nor can we hold our younger brothers back?
We don't have the face to let my younger brother take care of me." The eldest brother Zhang Junhai said firmly.
"Yes, Dad! I think what Pingzi said is a good idea.
You can make money by buying a car and delivering vegetables to the city." Zhang Junyang, the second brother, also started talking.
Both brothers are ambitious people, and they always feel that when they go to BJ, they rely on Zhang Junping's charity to survive.
Buying a car is different. It is considered a loan. Borrowing some money between brothers is considered as help, not charity. As long as you make money in the future, you can pay it back.
"Can you drive?"
"I can't learn!"
"Yes, you can learn it even if you don't know how to break furniture!
If you learn to drive, will you end up staying in the countryside for the rest of your life?
Go to BJ and learn to make furniture, Pingzi can transfer your household registration there, and you will become city residents from now on!" the uncle scolded.
"What's wrong with the rural people? Without the rural people growing food, all the people in the city will starve to death!"
“I don’t care if you want to be a farmer for the rest of your life, but I can’t let my grandchildren be farmers for the rest of their lives!
What are the conditions in the city and what are the conditions in the countryside?" The old man's hands trembled with anger.
"Bang...bang bang!"
Grandpa knocked the table with his pipe and pot, and the quarreling father and son immediately stopped.
"You three can't just calm down during the Chinese New Year? What's the point of quarreling?
Boss, I’m not telling you that you’ve been worrying about everything your whole life and you haven’t had enough yet?
Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, how can you still take care of them for the rest of your life?"
"Dad, they are young and energetic now and cannot see their future. How can I not worry about it?" the uncle argued.
"Then let's talk slowly. Do we have to make a big New Year's noise?" Grandpa glared at the old man.
Zhang Junping watched from the side without saying anything, but he agreed with the uncle's point of view.
It’s not that Zhang Junping dislikes the countryside, nor does he look down on farmers.
The conditions in rural areas are indeed not as good as those in cities, and many farmers in later generations have fled to the cities.
In order to stay in the city, I did the dirtiest, hardest and most tiring work.
Some people, in order to settle down in a big city, have borrowed a lot of debt and have to buy a house in the city even though they are suffering from famine. They are not willing to buy even a bottle of mineral water, and they are not willing to buy lotus vegetables to eat. They just eat pickles and steamed buns.
.
Many people can't understand, why do you do this? Is it bad to buy a house in a small city?
If you have this kind of money, wouldn't it be good to build a small western-style house in the countryside?
Zhang Junping couldn't understand it before.
Later, I chatted with a buddy who was also from Shandong and later bought a house in BJ.
On the surface, he has a car and a house, and he is doing well in BJ.
But in reality, it was pretty tight.
This guy is always dressed like a successful person in a suit and tie.
But only those who really know and understand know that this guy has no other clothes at all and just wears two suits upside down.
This guy doesn't smoke or drink, and rarely goes out to socialize unless he graduates.
Everyone feels that this guy Gu Jia is a good man.
But those who really know him well know that before he bought a house, this guy smoked very hard, and the cigarettes cost more than 20 yuan.
One kilogram of liquor and one kilogram of beer.
But in order to buy a house, I gave up all these things.
When Zhang Junping was chatting with this buddy, he asked, buddy, aren't you tired from living like this?
"Tired!"
"Is it worth it?"
"value!"
"What's it worth?"
"I'll have to suffer a little bit in this life! Who said I'm not a BJ person?
But my son is a BJ person!
If I finish all the hardships in this life, my son will no longer have to endure hardships!
A nobleman cannot be born in three lifetimes.
You don’t understand, this is a class jump. What do we ordinary people rely on to achieve a class jump?
In the past, we didn't rely on fighting and shedding blood to change our future.
Now it’s no longer possible. Now we can only rely on enduring hardship and achieving a class jump bit by bit.”
At first, Zhang Junping didn't quite agree with this guy's point of view, but after thinking about it slowly, he felt that it made some sense.
It's just that this truth contains a lot of ordinary people's helplessness and unwillingness.
If I finish the hardship, my child will no longer have to endure hardship. What a great and heavy father's love.
Therefore, Zhang Junping agrees with the uncle's idea.
This is a good time. Now that the eldest brother and the second brother have gone, Zhang Junping still has a way to transfer their household registrations and turn them into BJ household registrations.
However, even if it were a few years later, he could not guarantee that he would be able to transfer his household registration to BJ.
Of course, some people will say that you can still change your household registration in a few years. The state has policies and will give companies some household registration indicators.
As the company develops, more and more people will need to move around. It is impossible for him to be selfish and give his precious household registration quota to his relatives.
With so many people eating with him, he has to consider the development needs of the entire enterprise.
And the eldest brother and the second brother are obviously not the talents that the company needs for development.
However, Zhang Junping did not intend to interfere too much.
It is one's freedom to decide how to make decisions.
What's more, what the buddy said in the previous life makes sense, but it's not absolute.
Zhang Junping believes that if ordinary people want to achieve a class jump, it is only the stupidest way to rely on their parents to endure hardships and eat the hardships so that their children will no longer have to endure hardships.
Since ancient times, if you want to achieve a class jump in peaceful times, there is only one best way, and that is to study.
In ancient times, one relied on the imperial examination. Once successful, one's life status would immediately change.
The Zhang family is an example back then. They went from being a farmer with only a few acres of thin farmland, struggling to make ends meet, to becoming a squire with thousands of acres of fertile farmland. They relied on studying, and some of their ancestors passed the civil service examination.
Now and in the future, it is the same. If ordinary people want to achieve a class jump, they can only rely on reading and learning.
Going to college is just the first step, and then taking the civil service examination or entering a large enterprise, etc., to achieve a class jump step by step.
In short, for ordinary people, reading and studying is the shortcut to rising in class.
Therefore, instead of enduring hardship in a big city, it is better to strengthen the education of children.
The quarrel between the uncle and the elder brother and the second brother was forcibly suppressed by the grandfather.
"Pingzi, talk to your grandpa and ask your grandpa to move to our house after the Chinese New Year." Dad also quickly changed the subject.
"What's the trouble? I know you're filial, but your mother and I are old and we don't want to go back and forth." Grandpa refused first.
"Grandpa, you and my grandma can move here! The new house is bright and warm!"
"No, I live very well here!
Pingzi, you are a capable person. If you have the opportunity, you can help your uncle and your third uncle more.
Seeing that you are all safe, your mother and I are satisfied." Grandpa smoked his pipe and pot with a happy smile on his face.
From the perspective of my grandfather, who has endured hardship, sin, and hunger, his current life is the happiest one.
A family has food, drink, a house to live in and clothing to wear, what else is there to be dissatisfied about?
