Chapter 38 Second Uncle Buys a Car
In the room, Grandpa was watching the news from Zhujiang Channel at 6:30, and there would be a weather forecast before 7:00 later. These are two must-see programs he has to watch every day.
Saying hello to grandpa, Chen Zhengqian walked up the second floor, and Chen Guowei and Chen Guoliang followed behind him.
Chen Guoliang looked puzzled, not understanding why his elder brother suddenly looked for him and what he wanted to say. What's even more strange is that his nephew also came over together. Did he want to borrow tuition? Thinking of this, he felt nervous. If this is the case, he wouldn't be able to help.
His salary, excluding the living expenses of several children every month, is not much left, and his daily life is very tight. However, it is not easy to say anything at this time, so let's just wait and see what to do first.
The second floor is well decorated. The floor is covered with ceramic tiles, which is eye-catching and the walls are snow-white. The three of them sat down on the mahogany sofa in a glass coffee table.
"Brother, what are you asking for me?" Chen Guoliang couldn't help but ask first.
Chen Zhengqian looked at his father. Seeing that no one was present except him, Chen Guowei took out a stack of red tickets from his pocket and handed them to Chen Guoliang, saying, "At the beginning of the year, I lent you three thousand yuan to pay the tuition for Xiaoqian. Now Xiaoqian has made money. I don't think I can continue to drag the 3 thousand yuan. You can put it away first."
"This..." Chen Guoliang looked at his elder brother hesitantly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Seeing this, Chen Zhengqian quickly said, "Yes, Uncle Second, please put it away quickly. Our family owed you what you had before, and now that you have money, of course you have to pay it back. Not to mention how much you earn now, Xiumei and Yanmei, and Haozi both need money to study. Xiumei is now in Lingnan Normal University, with a tuition fee of more than 5,000 yuan a year, and a month, how can you even need your salary? Grandpa and grandpa are usually at home, so you have to help you."
"That's right, you can take it first, I really have money here!" Chen Guowei also said.
Chen Guoliang no longer insisted and had to accept it. However, he was skeptical about his elder brother saying that Xiao Qian made money.
Chen Zhengqian asked again: "Uncle Second, I remember you said before, you have a driver's license exam, right?"
"Yeah, that's right!" Chen Guoliang didn't know why he suddenly asked about this, "I helped the boss drive a car for a while and help transport the goods."
"Did you ever think about changing a job?" Chen Zhengqian said with a smile.
"Change jobs? What do you mean?" Chen Guoliang was stunned.
Chen Zhengqian slowly analyzed: "Uncle Second, as far as I know, you are now helping in your sister-in-law's stone shop, right? It's only 3,000 yuan a month. Although this amount of money is higher than the average salary in Hecheng, it is still not easy to support a family, especially with so many children at home."
Chen Guoliang remained silent. He also knew that it was just that reality was like this. Whether he had any skills or skills, how difficult it was to change, what could he do?
Chen Zhengqian simply said directly: "I'll tell you this, Uncle Second, I still have some spare money now. If you don't dislike it, I can lend it to you first. Since you have a driver's license, you might as well try to start a car rental business by yourself.
I have learned some situations. In Hecheng, the economy has developed very quickly in recent years, and everyone's living standards have improved. However, there are not many taxis, and even many are irregular pheasant cars, which are specialized in slaughtering customers.
If you are willing to do this business, you dare not say that you make a lot of money, at least it will be better than now, right?"
The taxi he mentioned is different from the formal rentals in big cities, but the "black car" we often call it.
There are not many regular taxis in small counties, and they are all such private cars coming out to attract passengers, passenger stations and railway stations.
And it is usually the time between the evening and the evening. As long as you are careful, it will be fine. Even if you are accidentally caught, you will be fine if you find an acquaintance to pay some money.
Chen Guoliang was very moved when he heard this. He was not stupid. Of course, driving to attract customers is much better than knocking in a stone shop.
But the price of a car is not cheap, and taxis do not require high configuration. Even a second-hand Elantra, 70,000 or 80,000 yuan new ones cost 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, and various procedures are included.
I don’t have such a lot of savings on me. Even if I add the three thousand yuan I just returned from my elder brother Chen Guowei, it is not enough to buy a car.
However, Chen Zhengqian said that he still had spare money and could lend it to him, which made Chen Guoliang look at his nephew with such admiration for the first time.
You know, he hasn't graduated from college yet, so he found an internship unit so soon? It shouldn't be true. How can ordinary internship units have such a high salary?
Chen Guoliang was puzzled.
"Of course, driving a rental is better than going to work, and the income is higher and easier. But where did I get so much money to buy a car?" Chen Guoliang smiled bitterly.
Chen Zhengqian smiled slightly: "Uncle Second, don't worry about this. Didn't I just say that it doesn't matter if you don't have money, I can lend it to you."
"You are a student, how can you get so much money? Don't come to spend time with me." Chen Guoliang still didn't believe it.
Chen Zhengqian had no choice but to tell you the truth. I must have the money. As for how it comes from, please don’t worry about it. It’s just a legal income. Now I’ll ask you, if I lend you money, will you buy a car and drive a taxi?"
Chen Guoliang gritted his teeth: "If you really have money to lend it to me, then I will definitely be willing. Only fools are willing to stay in the stone shop to move stones."
"Okay, this sentence is enough with you!" Chen Zhengqian smiled, and with a "bang", five stacks of red banknotes were instantly added to the glass coffee table, and even the bank seal had not been removed.
Chen Guoliang was stunned.
As a rural man, although he didn't dare to say that he had seen any big world, he also followed his boss to many places and had seen transactions of more than 100,000 yuan many times, but putting 50,000 yuan in front of him still had a significant impact on him.
What's more, the 50,000 yuan was actually taken out by his nephew, not his elder brother. Is he really so capable?
Chen Guoliang was so stunning that he thought. Chen Guowei never expressed anything from beginning to end, and it was Chen Zhengqian who was making the decision.
"Uncle Second, this is 50,000 yuan, which should be enough for you to buy a good car. You should have learned about it. As for the specific matters of buying a car, I won't get involved. You can do it as you please keep the extra ones for emergencies.
In addition, I am willing to lend you money, and I hope you can make money, so that the three little guys, Xiumei, Yanmei and Haozai, can finish their studies smoothly and have to finish their college years. After all, there is really no future in working after graduating from high school."
Chen Zhengqian has a good relationship with his cousins. He grew up together when he was a child. Since elementary school, several younger brothers and sisters followed him and lined up to go to school together.
For rural people, especially poor families, studying is not the only way out, but it is undoubtedly the best way out. This is the best way to get rid of poverty and break out of this poor valley.
Chen Guoliang focused on his head: "This is certain. Even if I eat bran, I will support the three of them to finish college!"
"Wait, I'll write you an IOU!" He said that, and turned around to find the pen and paper.
Chen Zhengqian stopped him and said, "It's all my family members, so what IOUs are written. You don't have to hurry to pay it back. Even if I'm short of money, I won't be able to save up the dowry for Xiumei and Yanmei in the future."
Chen Guoliang insisted instead: "Even if it is his own family, he still needs to do what he should do. He must write the IOU, otherwise I will not be at ease with the 50,000 yuan."
Chen Zhengqian couldn't persuade him, so he had to accept the IOU.
When the three of them came down from the second floor, they didn't say anything tacitly, but the second uncle's face obviously had a little more energetic appearance.
Chen Zhengqian and his father were also happy. The debt he had originally owed to the second uncle was paid off and he became the second uncle's creditor. He felt relieved.
If you are prosperous, you will benefit the world; if you are poor, you will be safe.
Although he was incapable of allowing the people of the whole country to enter a well-off society, he still had confidence in allowing his family and relatives to live better than before and improve his life.
It is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish!
He understood this truth deeply and was working hard to do this!
