Evolution from scratch with added points

Chapter 190 0189 The inevitable class reunion

After the interview with the enthusiastic Director Liu, Chen Jue slowly returned to the car after adding a WeChat message.

This time he took over the job of promoting cultural tourism in his hometown. In addition to sincerely considering the development of his hometown, he also had some personal selfishness in it.

Eradicating the cancer factory in the village is only his preliminary plan. Later, he will also help his second uncle and third uncle, who have ordinary family conditions, find a career path. He will also find opportunities to bulldoze the old house and build a decent villa, which will also make it easier to come back for the New Year in the future. .

After all, Chen Jue is not a Holy Mother. Everyone has selfish motives.

He planned to maximize the influence of Brother Unique, so that while he could live a prosperous life, he would also help a group of uncles and aunts who had supported him in school since childhood.

Without the help of these relatives, Chen Jue would not have been able to leave Chencun and have the opportunity to settle down in Hangzhou.

This is called repaying kindness, and it is something you must do when you reach your age.

Otherwise, you will feel guilty and your thoughts will not be clear, which will affect your personal emotions.

I drove around Ruicheng and sent a note to the Qianhe operation team to help with the shooting.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon and Chen Jue has to show off no matter what.

So I sent a few lucky red envelopes in the operations group to liven up the atmosphere, and by the way, I privately transferred 3,000 yuan to photographer Xi Guancheng for travel expenses.

As for the content of the shooting, Chen Jue probably already had some general ideas in his mind. He made an appointment to pick someone up at Ruicheng Station in the evening the day after tomorrow, and quickly finalized the specific time for the shooting.

When it was time to get off work, Chen Jue went directly to his aunt's house for a visit.

Because Huang Youxing came forward as a unique brother to solve his uncle's work problems during the day, Huang Youxing took advantage of him, and this meal was particularly sumptuous.

My aunt Chen Hongmian specially prepared a table of delicious food, and Huang Youxing also brought out the old Moutai that he had collected for more than ten years to entertain Chen Jue.

When he learned that the promotional video he was about to shoot might affect his promotion, Chen Jue also smiled slightly and drank a few drinks with his uncle.

This is what is called a person achieving enlightenment, a chicken or a dog ascending to heaven.

When an individual's strength and social status reach a certain level, it will unknowingly affect the people around him.

After drinking some wine in the evening, when I left my aunt's house, it started to snow heavily outside.

Wen City is located in the southernmost part of Jiang Province, and basically has no access to ice and snow every winter.

Chen Jue vaguely remembered that the last time it snowed was when he was in his third year of high school. On average, such a heavy snowfall would only occur once every ten years.

“What a rare snow day!”

Chen Jue blew in the cold wind to clear his mind.

Since I couldn't drive after drinking, I had to spend 200 on a mobile app to hire a driver.

The driver was a middle-aged man, riding an electric folding bicycle from a long way away despite the wind and snow.

I saw the other person watching the U8 for a long time, and even recorded a video in advance. After getting in the car, he looked around and looked at the instrument center console with a confused look on his face. It was obviously the first time he had driven a new car like this.

When Chen Jue saw this, he sat in the passenger seat and briefly introduced the functions, telling the other person to drive slowly and not to rush. Even if he got scratched, it would be fine and he would not have to pay for it.

They are all low-level people who are out to make a living, so there is no need to embarrass each other.

I asked the master how much he could earn from taking this order, and the driving master answered very honestly. The price of two hundred is the price during the first half of the Chinese New Year. Normally, he only gets 70% of it, and the rest is sold to these big platforms. The handling fee was taken away.

What's more, this year's economic downturn means more and more people are coming out to do this kind of temporary work.

In the first three years, there was a delivery boy in Shanghai who earned 1.02 million, and in the next three years there was a courier who earned 1.08 million, and then there was an online ride-hailing driver who earned 2.16 million. The news on the Internet is more and more magical. It is probably by the end of the year. There will also be new scripts.

Chen Jue, who has worked in a financial company for so many years and has been in the middle management of the company and received an annual salary of more than 10 to 200,000 yuan, would have gone to work as a li Well done!

I hired a driver to arrive in Chencun safely, then returned to my old house and fell asleep.

When I woke up the next day, it was already past 5 o'clock in the morning. The rooster crow pattern in the village perfectly matched the good life schedule that Chen Jue had cultivated.

This is because the pineal gland in the rooster's brain is also affected by light, just like humans.

Once it's almost dawn, the pineal gland will stop secreting melatonin, and the rooster will slowly wake up and start crowing excitedly.

After a brief wash, Chen Jue changed into a sports coat and jogged up to the Houshan Reservoir.

Taking advantage of the coolness of the morning, I started jogging around the reservoir to warm up, and finally practiced Sanfeng Tai Chi and Zhuang Kung Fu on the embankment.

In the absence of actual combat conditions, these Level 6 skills can only be polished over time.

After practicing for more than an hour, my proficiency level increased by about +50, and my free attributes also increased by +0.01.

When he saw the old monk Dehuai from Wuling Temple coming out for morning exercises, Chen Jue went up to say hello and asked him if he could contract an open space next to the temple for him.

Old monk Dehuai couldn't figure out the situation, so he asked curiously: "What does the donor want to do with that open space?"

Chen Jue thought of opening a farmhouse, taking advantage of the temple advantages of Wuling Temple and the scenery of the reservoir to make some vegetarian dishes to provide a taste for tourists who come to fish and believers who come to burn incense.

And in order to persuade the old monk Dehuai, Chen Jue also made a big cake for him. As long as the farmhouse can be opened, the monks in the temple can eat for free.

This operation is equivalent to occupying the canteen of Wuling Temple, and it can also be operated externally, which is two birds with one stone.

Old monk Dehuai was quite moved when he heard this proposal, because there were not many manpower in Wuling Temple, and he could only preside over five monks.

On weekdays, when reciting the Buddha's name and eating fast, I would open a small stove and handle it internally.

Once there is a special festival, there will be too many believers to take care of the food of outsiders. Therefore, most of the believers who come to the temple to offer incense come and go in a hurry and cannot stay for long.

If a similar vegetarian farmhouse could be opened, it would create favorable conditions for believers to spend more time here.

However, this temple is the collective property of Chencun Village. If you want to build a similar vegetarian canteen nearby, in addition to getting support from the temple, you also have to go to the village to approve a contract agreement.

Moreover, the old monk Dehuai also said that there were too few foreign tourists in this place and he would lose money if he opened the canteen, so he repeatedly advised Chen Jue to be cautious.

Chen Jue didn't care much about this, because he now had so much money that he had nowhere to spend it, so he just regarded it as creating jobs for his second uncle and third uncle's family.

What's more, relying on his own influence to divert traffic, he is confident that he can push the Chencun Reservoir out of the circle. He will not worry about the lack of tourists and fishermen in the back. The only worry is that the Wuling Temple is too small to receive it.

After persuading the old monk Dehuai, Chen Jue waited for the sun to rise and finished practicing eye and ear skills, then went down the mountain back to his old house and took a shower.

I changed my clothes, picked up a Zhonghua cigarette, and went straight to the Chencun Village Committee. I first explained my intention to the village party secretary and village chief, and then started to smoke along the way.

Village head Chen Hongguang was also very surprised when he learned that Chen Jue was going to contract the canteen of Wuling Temple to provide vegetarian food.

Because that place has no economic value at all!

If you want to squeeze some money out of the pockets of believers and pilgrims, it will be more difficult than reaching the sky.

What's more, there are only a few people who know the Chencun Reservoir. Except for people from nearby villages and towns who come up to take a walk, there are very few tourists from the city.

Throwing money into this place to invest is not like throwing money into a reservoir and losing money?

However, seeing that Chen Jue, a stupid young man, had made up his mind to take over the contract, Chen Hongguang and the village party secretary worked together to take Chen Jue's big U8 to the Wuling Temple site for a tour.

After Master Dehuai's persuasion, he agreed to lease an acre of open space next to Wuling Temple to Chen Jue for a rent of 50,000 yuan per year. The lease term was for ten years, which was regarded as creating income for the village.

And because he accepted Chen Jue's cigarettes, the contract was signed very quickly. A notice was posted first, and before noon, Chen Jue had already paid off the rent for the next three years and obtained the procedures.

After getting the agreement, Chen Jue drove to the new immigration village and called his third uncle Chen Honggang who was driving out to inform him. Within half an hour, the other party hurried back.

"Xiaojue, you really want to engage in farm entertainment!" Chen Honggang took the contract agreement issued by the village with disbelief on his face. This is half a million yuan in ten years, which is definitely a huge sum of money in the eyes of ordinary people.

What's more, setting up a farmhouse is not that simple. After you get the land, you have to build a building, buy kitchen equipment for cooking, hire people to help cook, etc.

The initial investment alone amounted to more than a million, and it was invested in a nook and cranny of the Chencun Reservoir. Chen Honggang was really afraid that the business would go bankrupt before it even started.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jue looked full of confidence and said: "Third uncle, don't worry. I will give you a job as a chef within ten years at least. I will give you a salary of 8,000 a month for the time being. If the benefits are good, I will give you a job." Getting some commission will definitely be better than running away from Didi!"

Since he wanted to start a family business, Chen Jue did not hide it. After convincing his third uncle, he also invited his second uncle Chen Hongye and his family to discuss it together.

Because the farmhouse now only has an open space, not even a shadow.

After that, a suitable antique building will be built on the open space, and the style will have to be in line with Wuling Temple.

There was nothing wrong with the engineering design drawings. Chen Jue consulted Jiang Zhe privately, and the other party directly sent over a dozen different types of design drawings for country villas and temples and dining halls.

There are a lot of free and open source design drawings on the Internet, and Jiang Zhe is a professional designer. He went to the projects he designed in the past and made ready-made ones. They are more innovative than the free drawings. It is absolutely perfect to get them in a rural place like Chencun. It's dimensionality reduction that hits.

It just so happens that my second uncle has been a mason all his life, and he is very good at building houses. As long as he has the drawings, he can build them.

Chen Jue will not come back often in the future. Even if the farmhouse and villa are to be built, they will have to wait until after the New Year.

Think of it as using your own money to find a way for your family to make a living, and it can also be regarded as repaying the kindness of the second uncle and third uncle's family.

Because the tone set was too high, and it could easily involve a large investment of several million, Chen Jue was dragged along by his second uncle and third uncle to discuss it for almost an afternoon.

This family is all honest people, so naturally they are a little panicked after having never seen so much money in their lives.

Fortunately, his third uncle, Chen Honggang, had been engaged in catering before, and now he has switched to making farmhouse-style vegetarian dishes. It is just a change of form, which is not difficult for him.

After finalizing the appearance and internal layout of the farmhouse, as well as personnel planning, Chen Jue left directly in the evening.

Because there was a high school reunion to be held in the evening, Chen Jue would not eat at home.

This kind of gathering is more frequent at the end of the year, and it was initiated by the former head teacher. I couldn't refuse it and had to go.

When we arrived at the hotel we booked, we saw that all the familiar faces from high school had changed drastically. It had been more than ten years since graduation and it was rare that the whole class could come.

But after seeing Chen Jue, the teachers and classmates in the class were shocked!

"Fuck! Is he Chen Jue?"

"What elixir did your kid take?"

"Why hasn't it changed at all?"

"It seems that I have grown taller and become more handsome and younger!"

The classmates were talking a lot, and even Xue Xia, the head teacher, caught him asking questions.

Compared with those middle-aged male classmates who have gained weight or female classmates who have lost their shape after having children, Chen Jue's figure and appearance are definitely the most impressive in the class.

During his adolescence in high school, Chen Jue was a mature monkey, and after graduation, Hang Piao became a fat man again.

Now he has transformed into a handsome man through exercise, which really makes the teachers and classmates in the class speechless.

Chen Jue acted very calmly. After finding a boy's seat and sitting down, he listened to the conversations of the classmates at the table.

They are all a group of 30-year-old people, talking about children, jobs and houses.

In particular, one of the classmates named Li Te now works in the Housing Authority of Ruicheng and knows the real estate in Wenzhou and Ruicheng well.

Wherever there were discounts on new properties, or where there were problems with the unfinished houses, Li Te picked them up at his fingertips. Soon he became the target of advice for those students at the table who had not bought a house or were planning to buy a house.

Seeing that Chen Jue, the handsome man, didn't talk much after he came to the table and was chatting away, Li Te, the boss of the table, looked at him and said, "Chen Jue, I heard that you work in Hangzhou. The housing prices there are It’s higher than our city of Vancouver!”

"You've been working for so long, so you probably don't have a house to rent anymore, right?"

Chen Jue originally wanted to keep a low profile and be a little transparent, but he didn't expect that Li Te would actually target him. He thought to himself, "I don't seem to have offended him, right?"

However, Chen Jue immediately felt relieved when he thought that most of the classmates were just like this, either showing off their wealth and superiority by showing off their wealth or rekindling old relationships.

We haven’t seen each other for more than ten years, and the simple friendship between classmates has long since changed.

"It seems that it would be better to attend less gatherings like this in the future!" Chen Jue murmured in his heart, with a slight smile on his face: "The house I just bought is still being renovated. Li Te, do you know this much about houses in Hangzhou?"

"You actually bought a house?"

"I remember that he applied for the scholarship for poor students when he was in high school, but now it's open to the public?" Li Te originally wanted to take advantage of the momentum to step on Chen Jue's limelight. After all, in his eyes, Chen Jue's temperament and image are really good. A bit of a steal.

Didn't you see that when this guy came in, all the girls in the class were staring at him?

Even the class beauty Li Te admired the most in the past was whispering about Chen Jue at the next table. Li Te got angry when he heard this.

I originally planned to suppress the other party's momentum in terms of financial strength, but I didn't expect that this kid actually bought a house!

“House prices in Hangzhou are not cheap!”

"Which district did you buy in? It couldn't be in suburbs like Linping or Fuyang, right? Although housing prices in these places are cheap, there is no room for appreciation in the future. It's not cost-effective to take out a loan and be a house slave for thirty years to buy a small two- or three-bedroom apartment. !" Li Tepi answered with a smile.

When Chen Jue saw this, he took a mouthful of food and said expressionlessly: "I bought a second-hand townhouse next to Xixi Wetland and there is a discount for paying it off. Now that housing prices are falling everywhere, it is really not cost-effective to be a house slave."

"Townhouses in Xixi Wetland?"

"Isn't that a villa in the center of Hangzhou!"

"Can you afford a house worth tens of millions?"

Li Te was a little confused when he heard this. He had thought that Chen Jue would be able to survive no matter how good he was, just to take out a loan to build an old house or a new one in the suburbs, but he never thought that he would immediately explode as soon as he started.

That’s not how you brag!

At this time, squad leader Guo Sen saw that the momentum of the chat was not right, and immediately poured a glass of wine to toast Chen Jue and interrupted: "Chen Jue is awesome! Now he is so open!"

"If there is any good way, remember to take us old classmates with you!"

Guo Sen went to Africa a few years ago to do business. The place was in chaos and was dominated by warlords and tribes. He had experienced the baptism of bullets and the African sun and rain. Just looking at his dark face, you can tell there are stories all over him.

Chen Jue had some admiration for the old squad leader who went out to risk his life, so he responded with a toast: "Squad monitor, you are the one who does big things. Africa is not an easy place to stay."

As squad leader Guo Sen took the initiative to smooth things over, the topics on the table shifted from daily life such as housing prices, wedding gifts, and raising children to African stories.

As for Li Te, he looked a little ugly because of Chen Jue's retort.

And he didn't believe from the bottom of his heart that Chen Jue could afford a big villa in Hangzhou, so he proposed to have another show at the dinner table after dinner.

It’s best to find a KTV or nightclub to have fun, and while you’re full and full of food and drinks, you can also take a detour to your alma mater to reminisce about your school days.

Many people responded to Li Te's proposal.

It is rare to get together more than ten years after graduation. The classmates in the class all want to find some memories of their youth in school.

Of course, Li Te also had selfish motives. He planned to take advantage of the opportunity of needing transportation for the transition to use Chen Jue's energy to get back to the scene just now, because in order to show off for a while in front of the class beauty tonight, he deliberately The Porsche mcan has been cleaned, polished and waxed.

The purpose is to show off one's strength in front of the class beauty.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jue ignored his suggestion and immediately called for a driver at the door of the hotel after dinner.

When the big black U8 drove slowly in the dark night, Chen Jue rolled down the window in the passenger seat and asked the class teacher who was waiting for a taxi at the entrance of the hotel and a few classmates who were not planning to attend the second game if they wanted to take a ride with them. hour.

Li Te was dumbfounded on the spot!

I don’t know whether to press the Porsche key in my hand.

Because compared to the big U8, his Porsche mcan is a bit shorter in terms of momentum!

Even the male students who know a lot about cars were cheering on the sidelines: "Damn it! Big U8!"

"Chen Jue can do it!"

"This car is so cool, I want to drive this one!"

The slap in the face made a loud clanging sound. When he saw that the class beauty had also caught up with Chen Jue, Li Te felt that his back molars were almost bitten to pieces! (End of chapter)
