"Haha, your dad is already an old man, and he still has to hold on with his children and carry that bag of millet to show off... Look, isn't he just lying there?"
Listening to his mother's words, Lu Ping'an felt more and more subtle.
As soon as he got home, he didn't see the old man smoking habitually at the door, and he was a little uneasy, especially when he entered the room and saw the old man lying on the bed.
When I asked, it turned out that I had lost my waist while doing farm work.
After thinking for a while, Lu Ping'an still asked helplessly.
"I'm not giving money to my family, and I'm still doing farm work."
"You are too old to move! If you don't do something, you will die?!"
The roar in the house was as energetic as ever, which also made Lu Pingping feel at ease.
"What are you doing? My son finally came back and he can't speak anymore." The mother directly helped her son and retorted.
"Okay, okay, by the way, I have something to do when I come back this time. Our family needs to discuss it..."
The unfamiliar pastoral scenery and the rare leisure time made the always tense road peaceful and finally took a vacation.
It is now mid-December 1998. If nothing unexpected happened, Lu Pingan would have planned to take a good vacation here and return to the city after New Year's Day.
He is also looking forward to whether something "unknowable" will really happen in the next 1999.
However, before leaving, the authorities talked to him and his vacation was greatly shortened.
"Moving? No need! I live a good life here!"
The old man was as strong as ever, which Lu Ping'an expected.
"I have made a great contribution this time. There will be an official award ceremony soon, and the mayor will also attend. It will be awkward if you are not there. Besides, this time they will reward me with a set of city government officials.
I have to have someone to guard my house in the hospital..."
Lu Ping'an didn't say that it would be better to live in the city. He asked his parents for "help."
"This is the certificate for the company I just opened. Now my business has grown and I am always traveling. I need someone to help me keep an eye on it. Just keep an eye on it. I don't have any relatives here. It is unlikely that I will get rich."
There is no problem in arranging a few jobs, but it requires serious people and there are no privileges..."
"You don't understand? You can just be here. At least help calm down the situation. Don't let anyone say that I am nepotistic and I will not be able to do business."
These are all authentic information and documents. Lu Ping'an has rented a small store in the city and hired service personnel.
His exotic harvests, the finished products of "Fangda Craftsmen", and the finished products of the courtyard factory all need certain shipping channels, and the nature of the association is a chamber of commerce, so it is necessary to set up a legally operating store.
When the time comes, we can give the old man a place to spend his time.
Lu Ping'an casually asked, "Do we have any relatives in our family?" Judging from the results, it was quite subtle.
Originally there were quite a few, but after Lu Pingan became ill and kept borrowing money, there were not many left.
Not to mention, there were quite a few interesting ones. One borrowed 30,000 yuan, another borrowed 50,000 yuan, and a relatively wealthy one borrowed 100,000 yuan... At that time, I probably didn't plan to expect the Lu Ping'an family to repay the money.
.
After Lu Ping'an was "recovered", when it was time to pay back the money, the two elders came to the door and thanked each of them.
Of course, after all, every family has its own situation. It's normal not to want to borrow money if you're not rich. The Lu family doesn't have any grudges... It's just a few families who provide help in times of need, which is naturally even more rare.
"Hey, there is also a cousin, and there is a distant cousin in the state... I understand."
This favor should be remembered. Lu Pingan nodded and planned to meet his relatives when he had time.
Of course, these are actually reasons. In the final analysis, Lu Ping'an still wants the two elders to move to the city.
As an "advance payment", the city government did give Lu Ping'an an apartment, and it was located in the city government compound.
Regardless of the living conditions there, the security is obviously the best in the ancient city, with full-time soldiers on daily duty... Of course, there is no absolutely safe area in this world.
But in the "dormitory area" right next to the city government office, once something goes wrong in the city, rescue will definitely be the first priority. You can expect the safety there.
Lu Ping'an is working outside now, and sooner or later he will attract rivals and enemies, just like Huo De Company this time, who might put him on the list.
In this way, rather than exposing your "weaknesses" to the outside world, it is better to prepare in advance.
No matter how good the "security" here is, it cannot be compared to that in the city... In fact, this was Lu Ping'an's own request, and the other party agreed decisively and enthusiastically.
Quite a few.
Lu Ping'an's "position" is very stable. Under the current general situation, he really needs to strengthen ties with local officials. If the two elders are protected, he will feel much more at ease.
As for their own wishes? Lu Ping An is now trying to convince that the city is much better in the fields of medical care and infrastructure. If they still want to farm, it is not difficult for Lu Ping An to get a piece of land themselves.
However, there was still no progress in persuasion. The two elders did not want to go for various reasons.
Lu Ping An actually knows that there are actually two of them, and one of them doesn't want to drag him down... In their eyes, Lu Ping An is just a seventeen-year-old child even if he is bragging to the sky.
Are you doing well? Then you should take advantage of the good momentum and continue to work hard.
The second is the idea of most parents in Dongguo, who want to save some money for their children.
Are you really inseparable from the land? Do you want to farm? It is actually quite hard. Maybe some people really like farm work, but many people insist on it just to earn more money for their son's college/wife/grandson.
Lu Ping An had several million in savings, and they also suspected that Lu Ping An was deceived. They reluctantly believed Lu Ping An, but they were worried that Lu Ping An would miss the mark...
"We'll help you save more, just in case something happens to you again, just like last time..."
"There will always be times when we need money. It's always a good thing if we do something while we can and save more..."
The two old men remained as they always were, making Lu Pingping feel even more helpless.
Well-intentioned stubbornness is really not easy to deal with with force.
"It seems that we can only use Plan B..."
Lu Ping'an smiled and found another reason.
"I can barely be considered a boss now. It's normal to have a girlfriend in advance. I plan to get married in two years. I want to get a little one out soon. Why don't you help me check it? The little one is out, and I still count on you to help me take care of it.
.Uh, maybe it won’t take two years, maybe half a year..."
When it came to starting a family and starting a business, the two elders immediately became serious.
Can you make a small one in half a year? Well, for Lu Ping'an now, it is not difficult to make a "humanoid creature". Anyway, it is not a normal way of birth... If it doesn't work, you can still get knowledge
I hope to take the blame.
As for the "girlfriend", it's even simpler. Just find someone in the team and pretend to be it. If you just look at the appearance, it seems to be okay.
"How about you get used to city life first, so that you can take my Lu family's little baby with you when the time comes..."
Sun Tzu, in a sense, is a sure death for the two old people.
While they were surprised that Lu Ping An planned to harm other girls so quickly, the two elders were also a little moved... Lu Ping An would be almost 20 in two years, and it was almost normal to get married early in rural areas.
The grandson will be born in half a year? Well, although it seems a bit illegal, the old people can only look forward to it.
Finally, Lu Ping'an succeeded in persuading... After a long night and many dreams, he was ready to move now.
As long as the road is safe, moving is very fast and can be done in just a few clicks.
Before returning to the city, Lu Ping'an also visited relatives and visited his cousin's house. At the same time, he also left his contact information so that if they wanted to develop in the city, they could contact him.
There was a cousin studying in the city, and Lu Pingan agreed to chat with him.
Only then did he learn that his cousin's family in that state capital was actually doing well, and he occasionally went back to his hometown to visit.
"The state capital..."
This time, Lu Ping'an received a task entrusted by the city government, which was to go to the state capital on a business trip, maybe he could meet him by the way.
"However, things outside have not been settled yet, so a fight within the state so soon...well, it's quite normal."
