Chapter 400 (2/2)
I'm afraid May's parents have something to say about having an only daughter in the 1950s and 1960s. No wonder they will be happier than Zhuang sir. After all, in terms of real blood relationship, Zhuang Sir's children are also their descendants. Although they can't be surnamed Zhang, there are so many people surnamed Zhang in the world. Is there a lack of them? They want people!
Zhuang sir, as Lao Dou, has everything, but he is not so excited as the old man. However, he gave red envelopes to everyone this year, and the thickness of the red envelopes was better than that in previous years, which also showed his joy.
New territories.
Lu Shi.
”Dong Dong Dong.” A lively sound of gongs and drums came.
”Thunderclap.” The streets of Lu's village are paved with ”Wanxiang” firecrackers.
Zhuang Shikai and Lu Hantao are standing at the gate of the ancestral hall, and the inside, outside and streets on both sides of the ancestral hall have been filled with wooden tables, round stools and Ronglong's new year banquet.
Groups of Lu women and helpers are filling the ancestral hall with live banquets. There are not only Lu people, but also several nearby villages and towns.
”Happy new year.”
”Happy new year.”
Zhuang Shikai changed into a white embroidered Chinese Tang suit, stepped on a pair of patchwork shoes, folded his hands, smiled and greeted the villagers.
His first visit to Lu was to negotiate with Lu Minghua.
The plainclothes police are on top.
But now he is Lu's most respected guest.
Lu Hantao could only stand beside him.
Everyone in the Lu clan wants to see him.
May stood beside her in a red cheongsam, with a gold hairpin on her head and a jade bracelet on her wrist.
Every time a villager came to pay a new year's call, Zhuang Sir didn't say a happy new year. She would reach out and smile and hand out a red envelope in exchange for the villagers' simple ”thank you, Mrs. Zhuang”.
Lu Hantao was wearing a red Tang costume and a string of Black Agate on his fingers. Whenever someone paid a new year's call, he would close his hands, grasp the agate string and bend down to thank him.
He is now not only a representative of the Lu's youth group, but also a leader of the Lu family who inherited Lao Dou's position and a representative of the new territories squires.
His influence has already rushed out of Lu's village and has a heavy weight in the whole new territories. He is privately known as ”Lu's uncle”. I'm afraid he will be ”Lu Taigong” in a few years.
”Thank you, Zhuang Sheng. Now the villagers in the new territories sell building materials, engage in construction sites and contract some government projects. Women open restaurants and cook for men.”
”Everyone has a job and makes money. The new territories is fast developing.”
”Villagers in the new territories should thank Zhuang Sheng.” Lu Hantao gave a red envelope and gave a sermon with a smile.
His face wrinkled with laughter.
Zhuang Shikai looked modest, shook his head and declined: ”these are the villagers who are willing to work hard and hit them with a hammer and a hammer.”
”Don't thank me.”
Of course, just listen to that.
No sir help?
They may also make money, but they can never make so much!
Now the Lu Hantao family are becoming capitalists.
Although they are only small capitalists, they are also earth shaking changes.
The remaining villagers are not strong enough and have no ability to eat the biggest cake, but they all have jobs and earn a lot of money. It is true to benefit the villagers and live and work in peace and contentment.
Besides, capital is always from top to bottom.
It is a rule to earn more above and less below.
The key is how much less! Can you afford to eat! Does everyone have that ”less”, or does he even have no chance to work and earn less money!
This is the real place.
The new territories theory has developed! But also sustainable development! Of course, thank you, Master Zhuang!
Therefore, Lu Hantao invited Master Zhuang to see lion dance and eat with Lu every year.
At this time, after sending the red envelope, Lu Hantao immediately shouted, ”people can't help being grateful! The Lu villagers should thank Lord Zhuang for this! ”
”Thank you, Master Zhuang!” A group of Lu's villagers shouted in order.
”Thank you, Master Zhuang!” A group of little children were holding red envelopes, showing their teeth and laughing.
Zhuang Shikai waved his hand with a smile and didn't take the voice in front of him seriously.
At this time, the lion dance team stepped on the plum blossom step, danced to the gate of the ancestral hall, bowed his head and shook his tail to Zhuang sir... Zhuang Sir smiled, stretched out his hand to touch the lion's head, turned and took a butterfly red envelope from Amy's hand. When he was about to be sent to the lion dance team, the lion dance team suddenly retracted its head, jumped up fiercely, stepped on his companion's shoulder and flew onto the plaque, He opened his mouth and ”bit off” a hot gold sign and sent it to Zhuang sir. He shouted, ”congratulations on getting rich, great luck!”
Zhuang Shikai took the sign from the lion's mouth and saw that it was written with the four golden words ”great luck”.
”Hahaha! Good luck! ” He laughed happily, immediately sent the red envelope to the lion team in front of him, and then said loudly: ”there are 10000 for one person! Wait, take it when you come to toast! ”
The people of the division showed surprise in an instant.
Lu Hantao also stood by laughing.
