Chapter 104 See how much the red envelope is

Chapter 104 See how much the red envelope is
Feng Yu also felt it was impossible.

I have been working for more than a year and am no longer a rookie.

There are some good things that happen, but they are very rare.

At least she hadn't seen it.

But anyway, it's a good thing for her.

Since she started working last year, Zhang Xin has been taking good care of her. Their marriage was arranged by Zhang Xin, and the two families are close. Zhang Xin is a leader, so she is definitely better than others. This little trick of hers should not be known to outsiders.

When I went home for dinner in the evening, I told Jiang Ning about this.

Jiang Ning was also quite surprised: "Is he going to be promoted?"

Feng Yu nodded: "Nine out of ten times."

Jiang Ning clicked his tongue twice: "This couple are both lucky!"

Feng Yu asked curiously, "Sister Zhang Xin said she didn't know why she was asked to talk to the organization. I don't think she was lying. Do you think she was asked to talk to the organization because you recommended her to Boss Lu last time?"

Jiang Ning didn't know either, so he said, "Who knows? Do you want me to make another phone call and ask?"

Feng Yu quickly shook his head: "No, you can't ask directly about this kind of thing."

Jiang Ning thought about it and decided that it was indeed inappropriate.

I didn't call.

Feng Yu added: "It's already December, shouldn't we visit relatives?"

Jiang Ning nodded: "It is indeed time to visit relatives, so let's go on the weekend!"

Feng Yu counted on his fingers: "Your three aunts, two aunts and uncles, your eldest uncle and second uncle, a total of eight families, do you want to go with your third grandfather and your second and third grandfathers?"

Jiang Ning nodded: "Let's go!"

Feng Yu nodded: "That's the Thirteenth Family, is there anyone else who wants to leave?"

Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said, "It should be gone. Before getting married, you can recognize the main relatives. You don't need to recognize the old relatives specifically. At most, you can call and ask them to come to the wedding banquet on the day of the wedding and pay a small amount of money. That's my father's business, we don't have to worry about it."

Feng Yu nodded: "Besides my aunt and uncle, there is also a cousin from my second grandfather's side, a total of three families, plus the thirteen families here, that's sixteen families, if I visit two families a day, it will take eight days to complete the tour!"

Jiang Ning got a headache instantly: "How long will it take to go from one house to another in one day? Just go and give a gift and sit down to drink a cup of tea. You don't have to stay for dinner. There's still a month left, and you still have to go to work. How can you have that much time?"

Feng Yu nodded repeatedly: "That would be great, otherwise it would be too troublesome."

So on the weekend, the two of them informed Jiang's father and mother and started visiting relatives.

Two packs of cigarettes and two bottles of wine.

It was too extravagant to buy Huazi Moutai, so Jiang Ning bought some cheaper ones.

The total cost of cigarettes and alcohol is less than a thousand yuan, which is not scary at all.

I went to my aunt's house first and called her in advance.

When Jiang Ning went there, his eldest cousin was also there.

We sat and chatted for a while.

Zhou Aiguo asked: "How can you take such an expensive thing just to find a place?"

Jiang Ning said, "Then ask your aunt to give us a thicker red envelope later."

Zhou Aiguo laughed out loud, and his uncle also laughed.

Feng Yu was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do.

My aunt had obviously already prepared a red envelope, and she became a little restless when she heard this.

Just get up and go into the house.

Jiang Ning quickly pulled him back: "No, no, my brother and I were just joking, auntie just wants to show your appreciation, don't take it seriously."

After a while of pulling, my aunt finally sat down again.

Made a few jokes.

Zhou Aiguo asked about the main matter: "Have you two set a date for your wedding?"

Jiang Ning said, "It's settled. My mother will find someone to see it on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month."

My uncle said, "It's a good day."

Jiang Ning didn’t know what was good about it either, he didn’t understand those things.

We talked about marriage for a while.

Zhou Aiguo asked him again: "I heard that you bought the Nanwan Forest Farm in the city?"

Jiang Ning nodded: "We sell wood cheaply, and Nanwan Forest Farm was not happy about it, so they went to complain. They went to the city to ask about it, and the leaders wanted to get rid of the burden, so they took it over, and just recently completed the handover."

Zhou Aiguo said, "It's better to take it. From now on, you will be the sole supplier of timber in the city. There won't be any trouble. Those scattered small forest farms and growers will not pose any threat to you, but no one cares whether they live or die."

Jiang Ning said: "That's what I thought."

Zhou Aiguo asked: "How much did you spend?"

Jiang Ning said: "About 30 million!"

Zhou Aiguo smacked his lips and said, "He's really rich."

Jiang Ning smiled and said, “I didn’t spend the money from the farm, I took out a loan.”

Zhou Aiguo asked: "What's the situation at Nanwan Forest Farm?"

Jiang Ning said: "There is no big problem, but the debt is a bit too much, more than 40 million in debt."

Zhou Aiguo was not surprised, as it was normal for such a unit to be in debt.

It would be abnormal to have no debt.

If the business is good, there is no way it can be sold.

There is definitely no way to do it. It will only be thrown away if it becomes a burden.

After spending more than 30 million yuan, there is still more than 40 million yuan in debt. There is nothing valuable except more than 3,000 acres of land. It seems like the man is crazy. Forest land is worthless and nothing can be done with it except planting trees. It is even worse than farmland.

But Jiang Ning must have a way. The trees on the farm grow so fast that they can be harvested in one year.

As long as the trees in the forest farm grow, they will be transformed from insolvent to high-quality assets.

Chatted for a while about Nanwan Forest Farm.

Zhou Aiguo asked another question: "I heard that you don't supply wood to Guo Xiaoli's factory?"

Jiang Ning immediately denied it: "No, who made up this rumor? The farm has been approved to cut one million cubic meters of wood next year, and I'm still worried about how to sell it all. If someone wants wood, I will sell it. Who told you that?"

Zhou Aiguo smiled and said, "You are a dishonest boy. Everyone knows this little thing."

Jiang Ning said, "If they want to buy wood, I am happy to do it. As long as they don't owe any money, everything else is fine. If someone doesn't pay back the debt, there is nothing to say. If it really doesn't work, I can still go to their house. I can't go to my relatives' house."

Zhou Aiguo didn't say anything more about this.

The eldest aunt wanted to say something, but her son glared at her.

I didn't say it.

Jiang Ning did not stay for dinner. He sat for half an hour and then left.

Although my aunt and uncle tried their best to keep him, he also had sufficient reasons. He said that he had to eat at every house and Feng Yu only had two days off on the weekend, so he might not be able to get to know all the houses. Only then did my aunt reluctantly let him go.

Wait for someone to leave.

The eldest aunt even muttered, "This child is nothing like Youxin. Youxin is such a down-to-earth person, and he's easy to talk to. But how come his son is so ruthless, he owes money to outsiders, but not to relatives."

Zhou Aiguo said unhappily, "Don't mind other people's business. Jiang Ning is right. It's easy to ask for money back if someone owes you money. If they don't pay it back, you can just go to their house. If a relative owes money and doesn't pay it back, Jiang Ning will go to their house. That would be terrible."

The eldest aunt sighed and said, "I heard that Xiaoli's factory can't buy wood anymore?"

Zhou Aiguo said: "They have a big family and a big business, why do you worry about it?"

The eldest aunt said, "Isn't this what your second aunt kept saying?"

Zhou Aiguo said, "My second aunt is always talking nonsense. She says nice things but she looks down on people. Guo Youping and Guo Xiaoli are like her. They look down on this and that. Do you know how much Guo Xiaoli gave as gifts to her three uncles?"

The eldest aunt asked, "How much did you take?"

Zhou Aiguo said: "The eldest uncle and the second uncle's families each received one thousand, and the youngest uncle's family received five hundred."

The eldest aunt was surprised: "Is this true? Is there such a thing?"

Zhou Aiguo said, "What do you think? I just found out about this when I went to the city for a banquet. What do you think my uncle will think? What do his two sons think? Even if my uncle doesn't say anything, what will my aunt think?"

The eldest uncle was also surprised: "I haven't heard your uncle say that!"

Zhou Aiguo said, "How can my uncle tell others about this? It will only make people laugh. If I hadn't given gifts to Guo Xiaoli's family last time in the city, Jiang Wei and Jiang Ze each gave 1,000 yuan, and Jiang Ning gave 500 yuan, I wouldn't have known about this."

The eldest aunt sighed repeatedly: "Oh, how could Xiaoli be so thin-skinned!"

Zhou Aiguo said, "So, don't worry about other people's affairs. I also heard about something. Last year, Feng Yu's sister was hit by someone and had to file a lawsuit for disability assessment. Jiang Ning went to his second uncle's house to ask Guo Youping for help, but Guo Youping refused to help him. Jiang Ning is a troublemaker. Do you think he doesn't have any thoughts in his mind?"

The eldest aunt was surprised again: "There is such a thing?"

Zhou Aiguo nodded and said, "I also heard it from Jiang Hua when I was having dinner with him a while ago."

The eldest aunt asked: "Did he succeed? Why didn't he come to you? You could have given him some help."

Zhou Aiguo said: "This happened a year ago, and the lawsuit is over."

……

Jiang Ning and Feng Yu left their eldest aunt's house and drove to their second aunt's house.

On the road.

Jiang Ning urged Feng Yu: "See how much money is in the red envelope."

Feng Yu opened it and took a look: "Two hundred yuan."

Jiang Ning smacked his lips and said, "Not bad. My eldest and second aunts are always stingy. It's good that they can give me 200 yuan."

Feng Yu couldn't help laughing: "I feel my aunt is the closest to me. My aunt is very nice to me. But your family is different. On the contrary, the relatives from my mother's side are closer to me."

Jiang Ning said slowly, "It's hard to say. Whether relatives are close or not depends on the person. My aunt's family is well-off. My father is just a farmer, not on the same level as them. On the contrary, my mother's relatives are all ordinary people. Maybe this is birds of a feather flock together. People with good conditions will naturally interact more with those with good conditions, and those with poor conditions can only interact more with those with poor conditions."

Feng Yu nodded: "That makes sense."

Jiang Ning said: "Of course it makes sense."

Feng Yu added: "The eldest cousin seems easier to talk to than the second cousin."

Jiang Ning nodded: "Indeed, although the eldest cousin is only interested in making money and has no ambition, he is quite humane. When relatives ask him for help with small matters, he will help in any way he can. The second cousin never gets involved in these troublesome matters."

Feng Yu asked, "Is there no one at Second Aunt's house today?"

Jiang Ning nodded: "No one, just the old couple."

There was indeed no one there, and my second cousin didn't dare to go, so the old couple took their granddaughter with them.

But my second cousin-in-law Su Hongyan did come.

They all seemed very enthusiastic and were not affected by the events at Guo Xiaoli's factory.

Sitting on the sofa, drinking tea, eating melon seeds and fruits.

Jiang Ning chats with his uncle.

Feng Yuze and Su Hongyan were chatting about school matters.

Su Hongyan asked Feng Yu: "I heard that Zhang Xin is going to be promoted. Do you know whose connections she is using?"

Feng Yu shook his head, of course: "I'm not sure either!"

Su Hongyan couldn't tell whether she was envious or jealous: "You really can't judge a person by appearance. Zhang Xin looks ordinary, and she doesn't have any connections or background, but I didn't expect her to be promoted without any notice. I really misjudged her before."

Feng Yu just dealt with it and chatted for a while.

Second Aunt and Su Hongyan were preparing to go to the kitchen to cook.

Jiang Ning's cell phone rang again.
