Chapter 1868: All Numb

~7 min read 1,351 words

It was indeed shocking enough. Hearing that Zhou Andong took out 1 million to collect evidence of Zhang Jingkuan's illegal crimes, everyone was numb.

The eyes staring at Zhang Zuo were scary. 1 million, let alone in 1994, even twenty years later, it is something most people can't earn in a lifetime.

These kings without crowns, their heartbeats were accelerating. If they could get evidence of Zhang Jingkuan's crimes, they would immediately be worth a million and could retire immediately, and they wouldn't have to do anything for the rest of their lives.

But this can only be thought about, and then secretly sighed. There were really three of them who had contact with Zhang Jingkuan, but those were normal interviews, where would they have evidence of Zhang Jingkuan's illegal discipline.

Zhang Zuo lit a cigarette again and smoked it very leisurely, giving these reporters a buffer time.

Zhou Dongzi reporting Zhang Jingkuan was explosive enough, but it wasn't as shocking as a 1 million reward.

After these kings without crowns digested it, they couldn't sit still.

"Zhang Zong, I'll go back and write the manuscript immediately, it must be in the newspaper tomorrow."

"Zhang Zong, I'm leaving too."

"Zhang Zong, thank you for your hospitality."

"Zhang Zong, if there is any news in the future, you must notify me."

"……"

This time, these guys didn't even want the travel expenses, didn't drink much wine, and left in a hurry.

……………………

Zhou Andong didn't know that Zhang Zuo, this idiot, took the initiative to increase the reward amount from 500,000 to 1 million.

At this time, he was in Yuhai Hotel, still in room 1 last night.

Tang Qian, Tang Yuhao, and Liu Shuying, a family of three, sat on the west side.

The old aunt kept smiling, occasionally picking up food for Tang Qian.

The old uncle was clumsy and didn't know what to say. Tang Yuhao said one sentence, and he answered with a smile.

If it weren't for Zhou Andong making jokes on the side, these two would have definitely talked the sky to death.

And Duan Xu, this kid was very diligent, pouring wine for his father, Tang Yuhao, and Zhou Andong.

"Uncle Tang!" Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Duan Xu is indeed a bit not a thing, but the past is past. Look at the future, if Duan Xu dares to be even a little bit sorry for Tang Qian, you don't need to speak.

I, this cousin, will clean him up first, and then my old aunt and old uncle will give him a mixed double, and it will be over when Tang Qian forgives him."

"Sigh!"

Tang Yuhao sighed: "To tell you the truth, even now, I haven't forgiven this kid. But there is no way, my Qianqian likes him, and she has run with him for so many years. If I really break them up, my heart is also a bit uncomfortable."

"That's right." Zhou Andong raised his glass and touched it with Tang Yuhao: "Say something you don't like to hear, even if you stopped the two children from being together, you are happy, but will the two children be happy?

Duan Xu, you can not care, but Qianqian? Can you guarantee that she can marry a man who loves her more and cares for her more than Duan Xu?"

"No!" Tang Yuhao was very honest: "This is also the main reason for my compromise, and your aunt is also worried about this."

Zhou Andong continued: "As parents, who doesn't hope for their children's happiness? No matter how big a mistake Duan Xu made before, as long as he is good to Qianqian and can give Qianqian happiness, aren't you two old people also happy?"

"That's right." Tang Yuhao nodded: "Let the past pass, the two children are of age, let's discuss and choose a day to set the engagement first."

Zhou Andong thought of Xiaobei and Cao Yi: "My younger brother Zhou Anbei is also getting engaged, but it's not a big deal, just the close relatives of both sides sitting down to drink and have fun.

If Uncle Tang and Liu Yi don't want to do it big, our two families can hold an engagement ceremony together."

"Is this okay?"

Liu Shuying really wanted to agree. After all, being able to hold an engagement ceremony with Zhou Andong's younger brother, the boss of 365 Home, is a big face.

But just thinking about it now, there is pressure in her heart. After all, the status of the two sides is too disparate. Whether it is relatives or friends, if something happens, it will be too shameful.

"What's wrong with this." Zhou Andong said with a smile: "I'm getting married in October, holding a Chinese-style wedding. The custom-made wedding clothes take too long, and it hasn't been finished for half a year. Otherwise, our three brothers can hold a collective wedding."

Zhou Xiurong said: "I remember Xiaobei was only twenty this year, and the marriage age is not enough."

Zhou Andong held chopsticks and put a shrimp into his mouth.

"It's the same to hold a banquet first and then get the certificate."

This situation is very common, especially in rural areas, where they hold banquets at seventeen or eighteen, and only get the certificate when the children are running all over the ground.

"However, it's not bad to let Xiaobei and Duan Xu have a collective wedding."

Zhou Andong raised his glass and touched it with his old uncle and Tang Yuhao.

"Collective wedding!" Tang Yuhao said with a smile: "This statement is fresh."

"Not fresh at all." Zhou Andong said: "Collective wedding, also known as group wedding, existed during the Republic of China.

At that time, it was an era of alternation between the new and the old, and civilized weddings and old-style weddings existed together.

So the Nationalist Government advocated the New Life Movement, and the Shanghai Social Bureau at that time announced collective wedding measures based on simplicity, economy, and solemnity.

Once the news was announced, it immediately attracted the attention of all sectors of society, and there were many young people of marriageable age who made appointments to register.

According to relevant historical records, a total of five collective weddings were held, with more than 300 pairs of newcomers participating, especially the first one, which exceeded a hundred pairs."

"There is such a thing."

Tang Yuhao felt a bit unbelievable. In that era, there were collective weddings.

Liu Shuying said with a smile: "Everyone says Zhou Dong is learned and talented, it seems it is really well-deserved."

"All are empty names." Zhou Andong shook his head: "If Uncle Tang and Liu Yi agree to Xiaobei and Duan Xu holding a wedding together, you don't have to worry about anything, just leave it all to me to plan."

"Good!" Tang Yuhao said happily: "It's a deal, let them hold a wedding together, it will definitely be very lively."

Liu Shuying said: "Engagement, we don't do it big either, just two tables for close relatives and friends."

The meaning is very clear, to get engaged with Zhou Anbei.

"Okay!" Zhou Andong wiped his hands with a napkin: "I'll make a call in the evening and ask if Xiaobei's date has been set. If not, let the four families discuss it together."

"No need!" Liu Shuying said: "You set the date on your side, and notify me when the time comes, so I can send invitations."

Zhou Andong nodded, Duan Xu's matter was considered landed.

After eating, he went to the group, just in time for getting off work.

Seeing Zhou Andong's car, Old Zhao stood at attention.

"Chairman, hello!"

Zhou Andong opened the window and threw a cigarette to Old Zhao.

"You are a captain, why are you still at the gate?"

Old Zhao carefully clamped the cigarette on his ear, then straightened his chest and shouted loudly.

"Report to the chairman, I came from the masses, so I have to go to the masses. I am a captain, so I cannot be separated from the masses."
