Chapter 566: Laying the groundwork

~8 min read 1,467 words

Zhou Tianyu:...

If it weren't for so many people present, he would really want to jump up and shout loudly: I also have savings! Many of his peers not only have no savings but are also in debt with credit cards and online loans!

However, after all, he had only been struggling in society for two years, lacked experience, and ultimately cared about face, so he didn't jump up. At this moment, he was naturally despised by his old father—

Look at Song Tan, young and throwing millions around with a wave of her hand!

Look at Sun, only 20 and bought his own excavator, earning over a thousand a day!

And look at his own son, working for two and a half years, with savings of only 50,000! What can 50,000 do? In Beicheng, you can't even buy a toilet! And he's still not giving up!

If he really saves money like this, he won't have enough for a down payment even at sixty—hasn't the housing price changed?

And Tantan is the one with vision, thinking things through thoroughly and long-term. Now with private jobs, indeed, if the boss is unhappy, they can fire you. Didn't he see many people crying because their mortgages were cut off and their houses were taken back by the bank when he was scrolling through TikTok a while ago?

How miserable!

Thinking of his son being a bachelor in his thirties and also having his house taken back by the bank, living a life of vain effort, never mind Zhou Maozhu, even the usually steady Mao Zhu's wife felt like gasping for air.

Can't go! This Beicheng really can't be gone to!

"Speaking of which, relatives really can't compare to Zhou Maozhu. Besides, when boys are out socializing, drinking two bottles of red wine for a thousand, singing and massaging for eight or nine hundred, it's very normal, and you can't be too stingy, or you won't have friends."

And the groundwork for Beicheng was laid, but there was no rush for results—there was no work to do now, why rush to hire people? Later, when the factory building on the mountain was built and the kitchen was opened, someone would naturally come to ask.

Song Tan raised an eyebrow and continued to press on: "Yeah, Uncle, a salary of over 10,000 is really a lot! In our village, how can you earn so much? My cousin Wu Lei does this and that, and only gets 3000 a month. Although he doesn't spend money, he can only save 30,000 at most in a year!"

Zhou Tianyu's orderly thoughts were interrupted, and he originally wanted to ask a few more questions. However, the plate of oily duck eggs was placed in front of him, and the moment it was put on the table, his eyes only knew how to stare straight at the table, and he couldn't think of anything else.

No wonder she waves her hand and throws millions around! So it turns out that farming is really capable!

!

Now he was greedy to the extreme!

Mmm mmm mmm!

!

If he asked too much, the work would be snatched away, and when Shi Luyu came again, he would definitely be devoted!

Forget it, forget it, those details aren't important; the main thing is to tell his parents about his future.

But Zhou Maozhu didn't know his father's thoughts, instead focusing on Beicheng, feeling that what she said was too right, and he had to let his father know:

His father probably guessed wrong; she must have kept a low profile and not publicized it—

That's it! Lips red and teeth white, skin translucent, spirit high, and Zhou Tianyu looked at his own son... don't mention it, that face was haggard and sunken; those who didn't know would think he was a beggar!

Zhou Tianyu thought over and over, and the problem returned to its original state.

His wife often came to help when she returned from Beicheng to hire people to turn the soil and weed, and later when planting peaches and packing, she didn't miss anything, and in total, she earned nearly 10,000!

"Hurry and taste it, this was pickled in yellow mud, it's only good these two days, I just boiled it—look at this egg yolk, red and oily!"

To be honest, if it weren't for Zhou Tianyu wanting to argue about his son's affairs, everyone would have started eating. It was because they were afraid that once they moved their chopsticks, no one would be able to talk, so they patiently waited for two minutes, right?

"Like me, I ordered a claypot rice at the company before—it was so expensive! As a result, I almost vomited after one bite..."

Thinking:

Is it all earned by the landlord and the takeout shop?

What's the use of such a high salary?

Right, right

, men's socializing, his parents don't understand at all!

Therefore, he looked at Beicheng and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

He widened his eyes!

Money is earned, not saved!

Better to stay in the hometown! He caught up with Beicheng's tea leaf stir-frying this year, 400 a day, and worked solidly for several months, that money is not small!

She then enthusiastically changed the subject:

"Come, come, come, Uncle, hurry and taste it, eat two bites of vegetables first to pad your stomach, otherwise it's easy to get drunk when drinking later!"

So everyone couldn't even bother with pleasantries, and at this moment picked up their chopsticks and started eating directly—

He didn't say a word, the main stage was naturally Beicheng's, only hearing her sigh again with annoyance:

This is clearly the result of throwing tens of millions around with a wave of her hand! "And diet, diet must also be paid attention to! Takeout is not like our own food, our own food nourishes people. Look at our skin and spirit, isn't it very different?"

But after turning his head to see his parents eating without lifting their heads, he hesitated for a moment, and then followed by picking up a portion of cold cucumber in front of him—

Yeah, only 30,000—Zhou Tianyu felt his heart burn with anger!

Is a salary of 3000 a bit low? After all, I don't know if this is steady...

Zhou Tianyu instantly calmed down: "Don't worry about it, I earn over 10,000 a month in Beicheng, where can I find such a high salary back here? At worst, I'll just save more money in the future."

And his son...

But that 3000 can be saved steadily... No, no, Tianyu definitely won't do it, better to go to the city to find a job, the family can still scrape together a down payment...

Hey, that's not right, they drink ordinary white wine, one or two hundred, not that expensive! Singing and massaging are expensive, but washing feet and such aren't that expensive, right?

Shi Luyu didn't say a word.

"Outside is different. Takeout for ten or twenty yuan is no good, who knows what kind of oil is used and what the environment is like! At the very least, a meal must cost thirty or forty!"

Beicheng smiled, and Seventh Uncle happened to walk in with a plate of sliced salted duck eggs:

Zhou Tianyu's eyes went white, and he finally understood—his son, in two years, might not even be able to save 10,000!

Chewing, swallowing. The crisp sweetness and abundant juice of the cucumber combined with the stimulation of the chili, mixed and fused in the mouth, turning into indescribable shock and deliciousness, remaining in his memory.

So how should he persuade the child?

And the work isn't tiring, much better than working overtime day and night in the factory!

People earn 3000 a month and can save 30,000, he's the opposite, earning over 10,000 a month, and only saved 50,000 in over two years?!

Zhou Tianyu looked at Zhou Maozhu again: his frame is quite solid, he also worked in the fields when he was young, if he really stayed at home and worked with Beicheng...

Beicheng appreciated this young man even more:

What? A meal costs thirty or forty? That's three meals a day for thirty days... My god, just eating costs two or three thousand!

And at this moment, he only looked at Professor Song and others who hadn't said much, and then looked at Shi Lu with admiration.

Usually carrying tea and planting vegetables, and dealing with human relationships among relatives, he had saved tens of thousands in just this half year. ===== CHAPTER 567 =====

Usually, they would bring along tea leaves and vegetables, and with the coming and going of favors between relatives—whether big or small—they had already saved up tens of thousands in that half-year.
