Chapter 433: A Strange Person

The shock was so great that it took some time to digest.

When everyone left, Feng's parents finally had time to listen to Feng Biao's story about why he suddenly became so rich, but Feng Biao's first words were: "Give me a bowl of noodles, noodles with gravy."

People in Tianjin have a saying that borrowing money to eat seafood does not mean you cannot survive.

If you have money, you will eat giant prawns from the Bohai Sea, a pot of steamed crabs from the sea, a big pot of mantis shrimps that were looked down upon before but are now a delicacy, and also sole, yellow croaker, and large hairtail. All of these are indispensable.

As for king crabs, lobsters and the like, they are not really the favorites of Tianjin people.

But for Feng Biao, seafood is not what he cares about. What really haunts him, what he can never taste no matter how much money he has outside, is the taste of his mother.

Feng Guoqiang was sitting on the sofa, Ye Guiying was kneading dough in the kitchen, and Feng Biao was leaning against the door of the small, cramped and not-so-smelly kitchen, watching his mother kneading the dough and talking at the same time.

"I don't just sell arms outside. Well, selling arms is a new business after I followed a boss recently. Before that, I was a bodyguard. It's not dangerous, but it's quite boring."

Feng Guoqiang said with envy: "Is selling arms very profitable? What do you sell, AK47?"

Feng Biao shook his head and said, "That won't work. Selling guns won't make any money and the risk is huge. We sell missiles, airplanes and cannons."

"Oh man, you are good! You are good! You are great! You make a lot of money!"

Feng Guoqiang looked excited and surprised, but Ye Guiying was worried and said, "How can it not be dangerous? Selling arms means fighting all day long, right?"

"You understand! You understand!"

Feng Guoqiang yelled, "That's an arms dealer! My son is an arms dealer! Do you understand? An arms dealer! Legal!"

Feng Biao said casually: "Yes, it's legal. Our customers are all connected with the country. Saudi Arabia is a big buyer, and Britain and France also buy. I have even been to the Elysee Palace."

"What the hell? Elysee? Isn't your uncle driving an Elysee? It's a broken car that's been there for years, and he's still showing it off to me? Well, I'm not saying this! When it comes to buying a car for our family, we must...must...what car do you think we should buy?"

Feng Biao was a little annoyed. He said to his father, "You've been driving for your whole life, aren't you tired of it? Can I find you a driver?"

"No, I don't want it. It's so much fun to drive a nice car myself. If I let someone else drive it, it would be a waste."

Feng Guoqiang has been driving all his life, but he has never bought a car for himself. It's ridiculous to say.

Feng Biao really wanted to mock his father, but when he saw his father's gray hair, he swallowed the words back.

"I'll buy you two cars, one for driving in the city to save fuel, and one for self-driving tours, how about that?"

"No, I can't just burn some money. Let me tell you...how much money do you have?"

"About 100 million."

After finishing speaking, Feng Biao glanced at his father and said casually: "US dollars, converted into RMB, it would be almost 1 billion."

The old couple was stunned again, and then Feng Guoqiang said in astonishment: "One billion! Is this how much you make from selling arms? Son, what do you think about me doing business with you? I can drive and deliver goods for you."

"You can't drive a car, you have to drive a ship, or a big plane."

Feng Biao just considered it as providing emotional value to his father and just chatted with the old man.

Come to think of it, it seems that I have never had such a harmonious chat since I was a child.

Logically speaking, taxi drivers used to be a high-income profession, and they don't earn too little now. There's no way Feng Biao's family should be living so miserably.

The reasons are complicated.

Ye Guiying was in poor health, uneducated, and unable to do any heavy physical work. While Feng Guoqiang was the only one supporting the family, he also liked to drink, play cards, brag, and especially when he was young, he liked to cause trouble.

The biggest reason that prompted Feng Biao to go abroad was his original family.

But now, thinking back, Feng Biao suddenly felt that although his father was a very unreasonable person, he still supported the family after all. Although life was tight, his childhood was still much better than Gao Yi's.

Gao Yi's father is a real good-for-nothing. He left at a young age and never came back, abandoning Gao Yi and his mother and never taking care of them again.

Thinking of this, Feng Biao suddenly said, "Dad, you don't have to go to work anymore. Don't you want to go on a self-driving tour? Don't just go to the grassland. Drive around the country and take my mom with you."

Feng Guoqiang was somewhat at a loss for words, and Ye Guiying suddenly said, "You have so much money now, so you don't have to go out, right?"

Ye Guiying stopped kneading the dough and looked at Feng Biao nervously and expectantly.

Feng Biao thought about it and said, "Well, we have to go."

"You understand!"

Feng Guoqiang yelled, "My son is a big businessman, how can he stay at home and do nothing? You are a spendthrift... You don't understand the difficulty of making money. My son has made it, he is Mr. Feng, how can he stay at home and do nothing?"

After finishing speaking, Feng Guoqiang looked at his son and suddenly said, "You don't have to go abroad, right? Even if you go abroad, it won't be the same as before, right?"

It’s not like before when I could only make a few calls a year.

Feng Biao sighed and said, "This money is given by the boss. When the boss makes money, he shares it with us. I can't just take the money and leave. That's not appropriate."

Ye Guiying sighed, lowered her head, and continued to knead the dough. Then she whispered, "We can't live in such a big house."

Feng Guoqiang yelled, "You spoiled woman, what do you mean the house is too big to live in? My son won't get married? He won't have children? Is that right?" Feng Biao thought for a moment and said, "Well, I will get married and have children, but I am already married. Now I have two wives and a child. It's a long story. When I was out there, a brother saved my life, so I married his sister and raised his wife and child. Even if I have two wives, I don't plan to change the child's surname, because I will have my own children in the future anyway."

Feng Guoqiang didn't say anything. Feng Biao glanced at his father and found that his father was finally unable to respond this time.

Ye Guiying stared at Feng Biao in astonishment and asked in amazement, "Two?"

"Two, I plan to marry one in the country and have a child for you to take care of, how about that?"

Feng Biao said this half-jokingly and half-seriously, but Feng Guoqiang said with a look of astonishment: "Son, we can't do this! Bigamy is against the law!"

"I can marry four in Saudi Arabia, legally."

"That's not OK!"

Feng Guoqiang was confused and said, "No, no, you can't do this. I'm telling you, son, it's good to have money, but you can't be arrogant. You can't spend it all. One wife is enough, but you want to marry three. This is not okay, not okay."

Ye Guiying suddenly said, "Why not? My son is capable and rich. If it doesn't break the law, why not?"

Feng Guoqiang was speechless.

Feng Biao sighed and said, "If you want to go abroad for a trip, I'll arrange it for you, but don't settle down with me abroad. Well, you can go and see your daughter-in-law first."

I still don’t know what to say.

At this time, Feng Biao suddenly remembered that he had not told Gao Yi that he was back.

Taking out his phone, Feng Biao whispered, "Don't say anything. I'll call the boss and let him know I'm safe."

Feng Biao dialed Gao Yi's number.

The call was quickly connected, and Gao Yi said calmly, "Brother Biao, how are you?"

"I'm home now. Everything is going well. Everything is fine... Well, the reception in China is very, very good. I want to save more money back home. I feel it's safer at home."

"Sure, if you think it's okay, well, bring good things to my uncle and aunt for me."

Feng Biao looked at his mother and couldn't help laughing. He said, "Okay, everything is fine. Very good. We were just talking about buying two cars so that they can go out and play in the future."

Gao Yi immediately said, "Buying a car? Oh, okay, I get it. Buying a car is good. So, is there anything else?"

"It's okay, just report that I'm safe."

"Okay, say hello to my uncle and aunt for me. That's it. I'm hanging up now."

Hearing Gao Yi's hurried words, Feng Biao couldn't help but frown and asked, "What's the matter?"

"If I have something else to do, I won't answer your call. You know what's going on. Okay, I'll call you if there's anything else. That's it. I'm hanging up."

Feng Biao hung up the phone. He thought about it and felt that Gao Yi should be fine.

"Are you calling your boss?"

"Ah."

"Very good, very good. It sounds like the boss is a nice person."

Feng Guoqiang didn't know what to say. He thought for a moment and said, "Son, now that you're married, you should live a good life. You can't have too many wives..."

Feng Guoqiang and Ye Guiying needed to reach an agreement on how many wives and children to have, so they argued for a while.

Now Feng Biao no longer gets annoyed when he sees his parents quarreling.

It wasn't long before, maybe five minutes at most, there was a knock on the door.

Feng Biao went to open the door and found that it was the tour guide who gave him his ID card.

"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't want to leave, but the higher-ups suddenly gave me another mission."

The young receptionist smiled, and then he said in a strange tone: "My boss told me something and asked me to tell you that Mr. Gao knows you are very happy to be home, so he gave you two cars as a gift for your uncle and aunt. He also said that he has too much money to spend and where to spend it, so you don't have to be polite."

Feng Biao was stunned. The ground operator continued, "You still say you don't know what car to buy? Then go for an expensive one. For a city car, go for an Audi A6, which is low-key. For a car to go out for fun, go for a Range Rover. Mr. Gao is too lazy to think about it. If it's not suitable, you can buy it yourself."

After that, the local guide raised his hand slightly, probably because he had never said such outrageous words before, and said: "The fare has been paid, and someone will deliver it later. You can handle the formalities yourself. Well, there is nothing else."

Feng Biao scratched his head.

It is not strange that Gao Yi would give gifts to Feng Biao, but it is strange who asked him to pass on the gift.

After saying that, he nodded and left without saying goodbye to Feng Biao.

After closing the door, Feng Biao looked at his parents, not knowing how to explain for a moment.

Feng Guoqiang still looked puzzled and said, "Your boss is a very nice person..."

Ye Guiying suddenly sighed, and then she said in a lost voice: "What's good about it? Your son will belong to someone else in the future. He... Alas."
