Chapter 65: I can brag about it in my circle of friends for a while

"land……"

Jiang Ning went over and was about to say hello.

Lu Jingwei waved his hand and asked, "Come here for dinner with friends?"

Jiang Ning nodded: "My two cousins ​​asked me to come to the night market for dinner."

Lu Jingwei glanced over there and introduced the people around him without asking.

Sure enough, it was indeed family members, Mrs. Luo Bing and son Lu Hang.

Jiang Ning called her sister-in-law and nodded to Lu Hang.

Luo Bing's appearance is not outstanding, but he has a good temperament.

Lu Hang is a young man of about fifteen or sixteen, and looks very gentle.

Jiang Ning didn't talk to him at all.

Unexpectedly, the young man was quite polite. Seeing him calling Luo Bing "sister-in-law", he took the initiative to say, "Hello, uncle!"

Jiang Ning: "..."

Do I look damn old?

There were not many people in the shop and half of the tables were empty.

Lu Jingwei picked a table at random and asked his family to sit down.

Jiang Ning was about to leave.

Lu Jingwei called him: "Sit down and talk!"

Jiang Ning had no choice but to sit down, and his butt just touched the stool.

Stand up again.

He went over and got a few cups, then brought over three cups of tea.

Tea in the store is free, but there are no waiters.

If you want tea, you have to get it yourself.

When Lu Hang saw this, he quickly ran over to help.

Jiang Ning was very surprised. This young man was well-educated!

Looks like a junior high school student.

Born in such a family, I can have such vision.

It’s really rare.

Unlike his second cousin's son Guo Xianglin, who didn't even greet his old cousin when he saw him.

His mother had to scold him for a few words before he reluctantly called him uncle.

After bringing the tea to the table, Luo Bing said thank you.

Lu Jingwei said nothing and sat there quietly.

Jiang Ning sat down and looked at Boss Lu. He was embarrassed to call him by his title, so he asked, "Why do you come to a place like this to eat?"

Lu Jingwei smiled and asked, "I can't come to this kind of place?"

Jiang Ning spoke frankly: "Even the director doesn't come to places like this, only ordinary people come. I really didn't expect you to come."

Lu Jingwei said, "I am also a farmer's son. I can't forget my roots after becoming an official. I will go to places that the common people like and take a look. If I don't come down and take a look myself, how can I know how the people are doing sitting in the office?"

Jiang Ning said, "Most of them are poor."

Lu Jingwei nodded and said, "Let's not talk about that today. Bei'an actually has a lot of specialties. I've been here for almost two months, and I haven't tried many snacks yet. It just so happens that my wife and son are coming over today, so I'll bring them here to try some."

Jiang Ning said, "The stir-fried offal at the night market tastes really good. They are basically made by craftsmen who have been doing this for more than ten years. Other places can't make such a good taste, but the price is a bit high. A serving of stir-fried offal used to cost ten yuan, but now a few people can eat hundreds of yuan."

Lu Jingwei asked: "Do you still have any fruit from your farm?"

Jiang Ning said: "Yes, I'll pick some for you?"

Lu Jingwei said, "No, if it's convenient, I'll take my wife and son to your farm tomorrow to pick a few to try."

Jiang Ning said: "Then I'll wait for you at the farm tomorrow."

Lu Jingwei said without hesitation, "Come over at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

Jiang Ning agreed, chatted for a few minutes and then took his leave.

Lu Jingwei didn't stand up, but Luo Bing and Lu Hang stood up and watched him leave.

I watched him walk away before I sat down again.

Although there weren't many people in the store, it was still very noisy.

Luo Bing sat down and asked, "What does this young man do?"

Lu Jingwei said: "The largest farm in Bei'an is his, covering an area of ​​more than 20 square kilometers."

Luo Bing was surprised: "Such a big farm, there must be a mine at home, right?"

Lu Jingwei smiled and said, "What are you thinking? I come from an ordinary peasant family. I grow vegetables. I don't have any background."

Luo Bing was even more surprised: "How is it possible?"

Lu Jingwei said, "If I hadn't come to Bei'an to work, I wouldn't have thought it was possible. I graduated from high school at the age of 18 but didn't go to college. I went to Africa to work hard. I came back at the end of last year and invested 50 million yuan to buy a piece of land in Bei'an and set up a farm."

Luo Bing asked, "How old is he?"

Lu Jingwei said: "Twenty-four years old."

Luo Bing couldn't believe it: "What is he doing in Africa? He can make a fortune in just a few years."

Lu Jingwei smiled and said, "I'm curious too, but that's all I know. I'm not sure about the details. Those who can earn tens of millions through their own abilities have extraordinary abilities. Those who are young and can make a lot of money outside must have extraordinary experiences."

Luo Bing exclaimed: "If you hadn't said it yourself, I wouldn't have believed it."

Lu Jingwei nodded and said, "I'll take you to his farm tomorrow. The fruits on his farm are delicious."

Luo Bing asked, "Aren't you wary of merchants?"

Lu Jingwei said, "The situation is different. I just don't like those businessmen who approach me with various purposes. But Jiang Ning is different. This man is very capable. He doesn't need the power in my hands to make money for him. He can create wealth by himself. He never comes to my office unless I ask him to. Bei'an's finances are particularly difficult, and his farm is now the largest contributor to the county's finances."

Luo Bing was puzzled: "Agricultural taxes are basically exempted. There is no profit in agriculture now. How much value can a farm create? Isn't Bei'an's largest enterprise Beigou Coal Mine?"

Lu Jingwei said, "His farm is a little different. You'll know when you go take a look tomorrow. As for the Beigou coal mine, how many miners pay taxes honestly? They mine more than 1 billion yuan of coal a year, but they make losses every year. They avoid all the taxes they can. Such a large coal mine only pays about 1 million yuan in taxes a year. It doesn't promote the economic and industrial development of Bei'an at all."

Luo Bing asked, "I heard that the Beigou coal mine has deep roots?" Lu Jingwei nodded and didn't say anything more about it. He changed the subject and said, "Beian doesn't have much fun. The few scenic spots are just so-so. There's nothing to see. I'll take you to Jiang Ning's farm tomorrow, and you can go back the day after tomorrow!"

Luo Bing nodded.

……

On the other table.

Jiang Wei was asking Jiang Ning: "Is that Boss Lu's family?"

Jiang Ning nodded: "His wife and son."

Jiang Ze said, "Boss Lu is not from Bei'an. He should be visiting Bei'an during the summer vacation."

Jiang Wei asked again: "Is his son in junior high school or high school?"

Jiang Ning said: "We didn't talk about this."

Jiang Wei asked: "So what did you talk about?"

Jiang Ning said: "They just said a few words. What can they talk about? He is going to bring his wife and son to my farm to pick fruit tomorrow."

Jiang Wei perked up: "Can I go and talk to the boss?"

Jiang Ning said: "Okay, come over tomorrow and I'll introduce you."

Jiang Ze looked at Jiang Wei: "What are you going to say to Boss Lu?"

Jiang Wei thought about it for a while and then said angrily: "Forget it. If ordinary people like us really go to Boss Lu, we don't know what to say to him. It's better not to join in the fun."

Jiang Ning encouraged him: "Brother Wei, it's not that serious. You are a well-known person in Bei'an. It's just a meeting with an official. Don't you often drink and play cards with those directors? Why do you have no confidence now?"

Jiang Wei said dryly, "How can they be the same? Those directors are just like that. Bei'an has at least 800 if not 3,000. They are the same as parents. Bei'an is the only one like him. I don't know how many bosses want to get close to him."

Jiang Ning felt that what he said was a bit absolute.

He didn't want to get close.

It's better to stay away from these people.

To avoid being affected one day.

The three of them had almost finished eating, so they chatted for a few minutes and then left.

Jiang Ning went over to say hello to Boss Lu and left first.

The next morning, I got up at eight and went to the farm.

When he drove to the gate of the community, he found Jiang Ze and Jiang Wei waiting for him at the door.

Jiang Ning rolled down the window and asked, "What are you doing?"

Jiang Wei said: "Go to the farm to get some official airs."

Jiang Ning was speechless. He said that he didn't want to go, but he actually wanted to get closer to Boss Lu.

If they miss this opportunity, these small bosses may never have the chance to be in the presence of their parents in this lifetime.

Jiang Ning didn't say much and drove off.

When we arrived at the farm, we first took a walk around the orchard.

I gave some instructions to a few workers and then went to wait at the South Gate.

Jiang Wei and Jiang Ze did not go and stayed in the orchard.

Stop the car at the South Gate.

The old man at the door even came over and asked, "Boss, who's coming? Why are you waiting here in person?"

Jiang Ning got out of the car and said, "Boss Lu is coming over."

The old man was surprised: "I didn't receive any notification!"

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "It's a private visit, no need to tell anyone."

The old man doesn’t quite understand, but being old also has an advantage.

Don't be curious, and don't ask questions if you don't understand.

Whatever the boss says is what happens, so just ignore it.

After waiting for a while, it was almost nine o'clock.

A Passat drove over and stopped beside it.
The passenger window was rolled down and Boss Lu was sitting inside.

Jiang Ning went over to greet him and looked back.

My wife and son, who were sitting in the back, also greeted them.

There was no one else in the car except the driver.

He didn't even bring his secretary this time, which shows it was a purely private trip.

Jiang Ning didn't say much, got in the car and led the way.

When we arrived at the orchard, we parked the car at the gate.

Jiang Ning got out of the car and almost laughed out loud when he saw Jiang Ze and Jiang Wei.

The two cousins ​​found a set of farm workers' work clothes from somewhere and put them on. They put a folding table at the door with gloves, buckets and other tools on it. They stood on both sides of the orchard gate like doormen.

Don't tell me, it's quite similar.

Jiang Ning held back his laughter and didn't speak to the two of them.

He took a quick glance and went to the back.

After the Passat stopped, Boss Lu and his family also got out of the car.

Luo Bing was quite surprised: "It's quite cool here!"

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "The Northwest is dry, not humid, and the wind is strong. As long as there is vegetation coverage, it won't be hot in summer. The Northwest is actually a good place, but it's too dry. If there was no shortage of water, the environment in our hometown would not be much worse than that in the south."

Luo Bing nodded in approval: "Indeed, our province also has good places."

Lu Jingwei glanced at Jiang Ze and Jiang Wei and said, "I came here for a private visit today, but I didn't expect to affect the workers."

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "They are not workers, but my two cousins. They had dinner with me last night. You may not have noticed. They heard that Boss Lu was coming over, so they volunteered to be waiters."

Lu Jingwei was such an intelligent person that he knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. He took the initiative to go over and shake hands with Jiang Ze and Jiang Wei, and chatted with them for quite a while, which made the two brothers feel a little elated. After shaking hands with Boss Lu, he could brag about it in his circle of friends for a while.
