Returning to Zhou's old house, Chen Zhe went straight up the mountain to the central villa where Zhou Ruohai lived.
In the old house, his status has skyrocketed. He can now enter and leave all places in the old house at will. This makes the old man's children hate him because they don't have this right.
Of course, Chen Zhe knew what they were thinking. He said softly to himself: "It's funny. You are relatives of the old man. You will inherit the inheritance a hundred years from now. But you are jealous of my useless rights... You come here even if you don't live up to your expectations. Blame it on me. It’s so boring, so boring.”
In front of the villa, I saw Zhou Tong, the eldest son of Zhou.
Zhou Tong is Zhou Jing's father. Putting aside the possibility of this simple middle-aged man and his sister becoming father-in-law and daughter-in-law, Chen Zhe has a good impression of him.
Seeing Zhou Tong, Chen Zhe stopped and said hello with a smile: "Hello, Uncle Zhou."
Zhou Tong smiled slightly: "Are you going to see the old man? He happens to be inside."
Chen Zhe nodded: "We still have to go to school. Today is the first day of school. It won't be good if it's too late. We'll go to school tomorrow."
Zhou Tong seemed to have just remembered that Chen Zhe was still a college student. He laughed dumbly: "Go back and tell your sister well. I will get you something to take back to your friends later. You can't come to Hong Kong in vain, right?"
"Then I have to thank Uncle Zhou." Chen Zhe smiled slightly, expressing gratitude from the bottom of his heart.
Zhou Tong shook his head and smiled: "Why are you so polite? Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. If it's a little later, the old man will go out and you won't see him."
After bidding farewell to Zhou Tong, Chen Zhe turned around and walked into the Zhou family's old house.
This Zhou Ruohai eldest son left a deep impression on Chen Zhe. He did not fight for power or gain. He was gentle and filial to his father and took simple care of his younger siblings. He was one of the few good people among Zhou Ruohai's children.
But this good man, the eldest son of the Zhou family, has the least power among the children of the Zhou family. Because of his good popularity, he is feared and ostracized by his younger brothers and sisters. If his son Zhou Jing had not been appreciated by the old man, I am afraid that the children of his family would have lived a very special life. difficult.
In the Zhou family, good people have no power. Power does not mean good people. How many people want to be good people?
You think Zhou Ruohai is really a kind elder.
Walking through the corridor, Chen Zhe secretly made a plan in his mind. When meeting the old man this time, he had to talk about the matter with Zhou Yuhan.
They all fucked my granddaughter. Is it possible to slip away if I have to pull up my pants?
But the way of speaking needs to be carefully considered... The old man once revealed to him that he wanted Zhou Yuhan to be his wife. Whether it was a test or true intention, he refused.
You don't want it if it's given to you. But then you turn around and steal it after you refuse.
If you have to be furious, just kill him directly.
I met Zhou Ruohai in the study again.
Chen Zhe thought the old man might be reading a book. Who knew he was cleaning an old revolver?
This gun must be half a century old. The silver barrel is very old. The yellow wood handle is shiny from friction. However, the rifling of the muzzle is not very old. It looks like it has been used for a long time and has been beaten. Not many times.
Chen Zhe suddenly felt that Mr. Zhou was very similar to this gun. He looked as old as the weather, but in fact he probably still had a competitive heart.
"This is British equipment from World War II. I asked someone to get it when I was doing business. When I started my business, this gun played a big role." Zhou Ruohai sighed slightly. He looked at the gun in his hand, and his eyes were filled with excitement. .
Seeing the old man talking, Chen Zhe had no choice but to listen.
"I started my business on a small scale. I and two crew members smuggled a small ship of cargo out to sea. When we met pirates, I shot and killed seven of them, one at a time." The old man's voice was calm and his hands shook. .Push the bullet into the gun and make an aiming gesture.
Chen Zhe really didn't expect that the old man was actually a sharpshooter. He shot one shot at a time.
He smiled slightly: "I didn't expect you to be a man of both civil and military skills."
Zhou Ruohai shook his head and smiled. But there was a clear look in his eyes: "I used to be a royal policeman. But I gave up after working for a while. I got this gun from a friend. It's still very accurate now. It's not far enough. Let's shoot it in this room. Not even a fly will miss."
Chen Zhe:......
The distance between us now is only five meters. Old man, you won't raise your gun and shoot me.
This gun is too old and has limited power. But at such a close range, it's really hard to hide.
Zhou Ruohai smiled and raised the gun with his right hand: "I am an old man and my heart for doing business has faded. The most important thing to me, apart from the family business I have built, is these children and grandchildren. Who bullied them?" .My gun still won’t miss.”
Chen Zhe:......
Why is the old man acting so uncharacteristically today? Are you threatening me?
Zhou Ruohai smiled slightly, and when he saw Chen Zhe, there was a hint of warmth in his eyes: "Although I am strict with my children in educating them, they will never experience what happened when I was young. So they are more scheming and less courageous. They are most like me when I was young. The one is Xiaohan. So I like her very much... No, among my children and grandchildren, she is my favorite."
Well. She is your most cherished relative...
Then I had sex with her. What kind of crime should I do?
Zhou Ruohai sighed: "Chen Zhe, in fact, among the young people I know, you are probably the one who gets along best with Xiaohan. It's a pity that you refused... What a pity..."
Chen Zhe could only laugh.
Now if he tells the story about Zhou Yuhan, the old man will definitely raise his gun and shoot. Even if he can't be killed with one shot, the old man will give an order to summon hundreds of bodyguards, each of whom will shoot...
Okay. Let’s talk about this slowly.
Zhou Ruohai raised his eyes and looked at Chen Zhe. He smiled kindly and said, "I'm sorry. As I get older, I always miss the past and become nagging. Are you looking for me today for something?"
Sigh. I don’t dare to say anything directly. I’d better say it slowly.
"Old man, I'm going back to Jiangcheng City early tomorrow morning. I want to say goodbye to you. Do you have anything else to explain?"
The old man put down his gun and sat on the thick chair. He lowered his eyes and said, "It's nothing. Go back and tell Xiaoqi from Jiangcheng. I like you two very much."
Chen Zhe smiled slightly, turned around and left.
Zhou Ruohai put the gun in the drawer. He sighed and shook his head: "What a majestic sister. What a bold brother."
I don’t know whether to praise or reprimand.
Zhou Ruohai started from scratch at a young age. He had many ups and downs in business. He made his first pot of gold at the age of twenty. He achieved a small amount of success at the age of thirty. He became rich at the age of forty. He built a financial empire at the age of fifty. He was already among the top at sixty. Rich list.
This glorious business road was filled with hardships and hardships. If I didn’t have a persevering and ruthless mind, I would have hanged myself when I lost everything on my first business trip.
With a successful career and descendants around his knees, if he were an old man in the countryside, it would be time for him to enjoy a happy life. But he still couldn't bear to achieve success in this life.
The children are all elites.
The eldest son, Zhou Tong, is more generous than generous; the second son, Zhou Qiang, is more than shrewd and narrow-minded; the third daughter, Zhou Lan, has both talents and qualities but is vain and shallow; the fourth daughter, Zhou Hua, is smart despite all the tricks, but is only smart in small things; the fifth son, Zhou Huan was ruthless and stoic, even vicious. If he inherited the family business, the other children would probably not be able to survive. The sixth son, Zhou Song, valued friendship and had great wisdom. Unfortunately, he died early in a car accident. Only his granddaughter Zhou Yuhan was left.
Fortunately, one of his grandsons, Zhou Jing, has a strong spirit and a strong heart, so he can inherit the family business.
There is an heir. Next is the heir's wife.
Zhou Ruohai had a good wife to support him back then. In order to support his business, he sold jewelry all over the place. He didn't even have a silver jewelry on his body. He also worked as a female worker to earn money to support himself and his children. It never hindered him from the beginning to the end.
After his wife died, he never remarried.
It's not that he misses his good wife. It's just that every time he meets a woman with good conditions, he compares her with his deceased wife. There is no comparison.
Therefore, an idea took root in Zhou Ruohai's mind: Anyone who is successful must have a good wife.
Zhou Ruohai picked and picked the wives of his grandson Zhou Jing, trying to find a grandson's daughter-in-law who could compare with his first wife, but there was none.
Zhou Jing has a calm personality. He is more than conservative but not enterprising enough.
The wife you find for him must be particular. She must be able to help him in business and take care of him in life. She must not have too strong a desire for power. At the same time, she must have a clean financial background. She must not have any messy relatives.
In short: know the general situation. Know how to advance and retreat.
Therefore, when Chen Qi came to Zhou's company, she had a decent appearance and strong abilities. She was quickly promoted. She was spotted by a branch of the Zhou family who was at the manager level. He actually wanted to use hidden rules against her.
Just when he was testing with words, Chen Qi kicked him...
Zhou Jing was inspecting the company at the time and learned about the incident. He admired Chen Qi's character very much. Of course, the incident also reached Zhou Ruohai's ears.
Zhou Jing suppressed the matter. He was usually generous and ruthless. He directly expelled the manager from the company.
Anyone who wanted to help was suppressed by his tactics.
Zhou Ruohai was surprised that his grandson, who was usually kind-hearted, turned out to be so resolute and resolute. It was also strange that he noticed Chen Qi.
It suits the old man's vision very well...
After seeing Chen Zhe leaving, Zhou Ruohai pondered for a moment, picked up the phone and said, "Azhong, tell Xiaohan that we are going to see Huang Man to discuss Xiaoyi and Xiaohan's affairs. By the way, let's also set a date."
Zhou Zhong's voice came over: "Okay. It's ready."
Uncle Zhong put down the phone expressionlessly and looked back at Zhou Yuhan who was standing behind him.
It was getting late. Zhou Yuhan casually wore a blue cardigan jacket and a pair of ordinary blue jeans. Such a 200-yuan outfit could give her an out-of-this-world look.
She casually flipped her hair around her ears: "Grandpa has decided to let me marry into the Huang family."
"Do you want to... tell that boy?" Uncle Zhong did not answer the question. Instead, he smiled slightly and asked this question with deep meaning.
Zhou Yuhan didn't expect that Uncle Zhong would ask such a question. His eyes widened instantly, revealing a hint of surprise. There was a touch of blush on his cheeks.
She immediately returned to normal. She shook her head and said, "No need. I will go to Huang's house with grandpa."
"Why don't you change clothes?" Uncle Zhong looked at her outfit.
She shook her head: "That's it. I think it's beautiful."
"Don't go and say goodbye to Chen Zhe." Uncle Zhong asked again.
"No need. I'll get in the car first."
Zhou Yuhan opened the car door and got into the car.
