Chapter 88 Home Ownership
092, Home Buying
"You are so bad." Zhang Qian blushed and said to Tang Wen.
"Hmph, I won't pay attention to you." Zhang Qian sneaked back to the living room from the top floor.
"Sister, why is your face so red?" Sister Zhang Xue asked curiously.
"Oh, it's a bit cold on the top floor." Zhang Qian said hesitantly.
The top floor of rural people is usually covered with asbestos tiles. The sides of the top floor of my aunt's grandmother's house are also sealed with iron sheets for beauty, so Tang Wen pulled Zhang Qian.
"It's cold up there." Tang Wen sat on the fence and muttered to himself.
After smoking and looking at the scenery upstairs for a while, Tang Wen slowly walked downstairs and came to the living room.
Zhang Qian rolled her eyes at Tang Wen in dissatisfaction, but it was more like flirting with her lover.
After dinner, Tang Wen followed his uncle Tang Hua home first. Zhang Qian followed her parents and sister to have dinner here.
After returning to the county, Tang Wen thought about buying a supermarket, a clothing store, and a mobile phone store? The supermarket was for Tang Hong, the clothing store was for Zhang Qian, and as for the mobile phone store?
I originally wanted to buy it for Long Jiao, but it seemed a little wrong. If I rashly bought a mobile phone store for Long Jiao, wouldn’t it be a bit too much?
It would be bad if people knew about it, so Tang Wen would definitely buy a clothing store and a supermarket first. As for Long Jiao? Forget it, I’ll find her out when I have time.
The supermarket is easy to deal with. The largest Fusen supermarket in the county only cost 20 million yuan to buy the two floors, and the largest clothing store only cost a little over 5 million yuan, which is too "cheap" for Tang Wen.
So Tang Wen started to contact a local lawyer, and promised a reward of 5,000 yuan. On the second day of the Chinese New Year, the lawyer began to work hard to contact people in the supermarket and the clothing city.
Everything went very smoothly. Tang Wen needed 30 million yuan to buy the supermarket and the storefront. The price at the clothing mall is about 11 million, so the total of 41 million can be signed on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.
It is already the second day of the Lunar New Year, which means there are still 6 days left, so Tang Wen naturally has no objection. After finishing it, it was already past 6 o'clock in the afternoon. My parents just called and said they would not go back tonight.
There was no way Tang Wen had to survive on his own again.
Thinking of this, Tang Wen sneaked back to the old house and sent a message to Long Jiao.
"Is anyone home?"
After a while, Long Jiao replied, "No one, come in through the back door, I didn't lock the door, just push it open."
After seeing the message, Tang Wen was very happy and continued to send a message.
"Put on your wedding dress and wait for me in the room."
"You bastard, you only know how to humiliate me in broad daylight."
"You are being promiscuous in broad daylight." Tang Wen was very happy.
After saying that, Tang Wen pushed open the back door, locked it, and tiptoed towards Long Jiao's room. Sure enough, Long Jiao was sitting on the bed in a fiery red bridal cheongsam.
"Damn, are you satisfied?"
"Very satisfied." Tang Wen nodded.
Tomorrow is Tang Wen's own family's dinner party. As the landlord, he still has to make some arrangements.
In previous years, Tang Wen's family always entertained guests at home, but this year, in order to avoid making his parents work hard, Tang Wen went directly to Ziyuan to book a villa for dinner.
Anyway, someone will clean up, and it's not tiring. Although Tang Wen's mother Long Yun is a little disgusted with her son's spending too much, she is still very satisfied after knowing her son's filial piety.
At around 9 o'clock in the evening, Tang Wen's father called him and told him not to pick him up. His uncle had already sent them back.
After answering the phone, Tang Wen fell asleep. After all, he was still a little sleepy after firing two shells in a row today.
Early the next morning, Tang Wen drove his parents to the villa area in a Rolls-Royce. Then he waited for relatives to come at the door. Because my father said to come early to play cards today, the relatives were "very active."
The relatives who usually go out around 10:30 arrived at 10 o'clock today.
Tang Wen invited quite a lot of relatives this time, not only his fourth grandfather's family, his uncle's family, his great aunt's grandmother, his great uncle's father, his great uncle, his youngest uncle, his second uncle, and his brother-in-law's family.
In total, there were about 40 people. Fortunately, the banquet hall Tang Wen booked in the villa area was big enough. Of course, during the Chinese New Year, the banquet hall, which was originally 1,288 yuan, has now risen to 8,888 yuan.
For Tang Wen, 8,888 yuan is no different from 8,888,888 yuan. Anyway, he can earn more than 8 million yuan just by sleeping.
The relatives arrived one after another, although they really wanted to do something with Zhang Qian. But Tang Wen, as the host, really didn't have much free time today.
He was busy handing out cigarettes and asking the service staff to take this and that. In the past, my parents would greet the guests, but now it was Tang Wen.
The relatives all praised Tang Wen. My mother was also happy to brag to the relatives. The men gathered together, some playing mahjong, some playing cards.
"Waiter, go get another box of Zhonghua." Tang Wen said to the waiter after seeing that there were only a few packs of cigarettes on the men's table.
This time, my mother put two packs of Zhonghua on the table, but she didn't expect that there were so many people coming. They were gone in a short time, so Tang Wen directly asked someone to bring a box.
"Wenwen has made a lot of progress." Seeing this, the relatives praised him one after another.
Although my parents were happy to listen to people praising their son, they pretended to be "a spendthrift who only knows how to spend money."
"Mr. Tang, can you take a look at this specification?" The hotel manager took the menu and handed it to Tang Wen and asked.
"Well, I don't want anything too greasy. I'll use seafood and meat for the main course at noon, and keep it light at night." Tang Wen looked at the menu and said.
"Okay, Mr. Tang. A total of 6 tables will be arranged for you here. Each table will have 2 king crabs, 24 three-headed abalone, 1 grouper, 2 Australian dragons, 8 bowls of bird's nests, and 8 bowls of shark fins. Then The staple food is Australian beef, edible grade sika deer meat, and 5A specially imported bear paws." The manager explained to Tang Wen one by one.
"Okay, just look at the arrangements." Tang Wen nodded.
"Okay Mr. Tang, the food cost here will be deducted from your deposit of 1 million yuan first, and we will notify you after the drinks are deducted."
Tang Wen didn't think about the money issue at all. After all the relatives were settled, Tang Wen walked to the bathroom door and sent Zhang Qian a message.
"I'm waiting for you at the door of the toilet, baby."
"Humph, don't even think about it, bad guy." Zhang Qian replied mischievously.
Well, you may say so, but your body is still very honest. Zhang Qian still appeared in front of Tang Wen sneakily.
"Bad guy."
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Looking at her sister, Zhang Xue asked innocently.
"Your face is so red." Zhang Xue was still like a curious baby.
"Shut up and eat your food." Zhang Qian took a deep breath and pouted.
"If you don't want to say it, why don't you say it?" Zhang Xue was stunned but still said it.
Seeing Zhang Qian fussing around, Tang Wen raised his eyebrows at her, earning a speechless roll of his eyes.
Suddenly, a message came from the phone. When I opened it, I saw that it was from Zhang Qian.
"Bad guy."
"Bad guy, this is so embarrassing."
"Ahhhhhh this is it."
"I'm so angry. It's so embarrassing. Cover your face and express your face."
"My dear, my baby is always the most beautiful." Tang Wen replied.
"You big liar, I'll ignore you."
After teasing Zhang Qian, Tang Wen was caught by his mother.
"Wenwen, this is your aunt, calling someone." Mom pulled Tang Wen and introduced to a middle-aged woman in front of her.
"Auntie." Tang Wen said hello to each of them honestly.
"Wenwen is in college?"
"Do you have a girlfriend?"
"Auntie will introduce you to one."
"I heard that the youngest daughter of the XX family is also studying in CS. You young people can talk more about it."
"Yes, yes, that girl from the XX family is very handsome, and she matches the elegant people in your house."
"Tch, that niece from the XX family is pretty. Wenwen listens to your Aunt Zhang. I'll introduce her to you one day."
"I think Zhang Qian and Wenwen are a good match."
"Yes, I also think Zhang Qian is a good girl."
Everyone was talking so much that Tang Wen almost fainted.
In the Tang Wen family, betrothal gifts and so on are dispensable. People value relationships. For example, if I introduce you to my wife, is it okay for my son to make a little fortune with you?
Or it can be said to help your former matchmaker find a good "job" when you get married. We usually deal with each other on a personal basis, and the money component “isn’t that important.”
After all, money will be spent, but a good job will provide you with food and clothing for a lifetime. That’s why they are said to be from a clean background.
Seeing his relatives chatting animatedly with his mother, Tang Wen had no choice but to run away happily. I was afraid that my mother would dig up a baby for me without paying attention.
But why did they even tell Zhang Qian?
