Chapter 949 A good show (Part 2)
Hearing what Liu Yanxia said, Wen Leijin suddenly smiled bitterly and said in a bitter voice: "Making money? It would be great if our lumber factory doesn't lose money!"
Seeing that his son, daughter-in-law and daughter all looked surprised, Wen Leijin couldn't help but regret hiding the true situation from his family, but at this moment he could only explain patiently:
"Do you still think this is the past? Now that there are monsters in the mountains, who dares to secretly go to the mountains to cut down trees? Nowadays, the wood in our lumber factory comes from regular channels, and there is not much profit at all. It lasts for one year.
Come down here, after excluding the workers’ wages, the messy taxes and fees, and the expenses of our three families, there will be no money left at all!”
The three big families refer to Wen Lei, his wife and his wife, Wen Lei and his family, and Wen Cui, who comes here every three days to catch the autumn wind and pull things.
Wen Leijin spoke so straightforwardly that Wen He and Liu Yanxia immediately believed it.
"But if I don't have money, I have no hope at all!"
Wen He said with some despair: "It took a lot of effort for me to win over Deacon Bai. I have already sent nearly 50,000 yuan in gifts, and now this is the last step left!"
"He has promised me that as long as I can give him five broken spiritual stones, he will give me two of the Bai family's apprenticeship quotas in Ping Ping County!"
"I have already thought about giving one of the places to County Magistrate Chen. His son is of the right age. He has been thinking of ways to send his son to a cultivation sect, but unfortunately he has never found a way."
"As long as I can get this matter settled, then I will be on the path of County Chief Chen. Once our old director retires, I will be able to get in immediately!"
"I plan to reserve the other spot for my son, your grandson. If he really has that talent and can succeed in the future, then our Lao Wen family will be completely prosperous!"
Because they were worried that their mother would go out and brag without restraint, Wen He had not said these words thoroughly before, so it was only now that Wen Lei and Jin knew the true purpose of Wen He's request for money.
Wen Leijin looked hesitant and said in embarrassment: "But now I only have 100,000 yuan left at home, and this is the coffin book that I saved so hard. I really can't afford any extra money!"
Having said this, Wen Leijin pondered for a moment and tentatively said to Liu Yanxia: "Yanxia, this matter is indeed related to the future of our old Wen family. At least, it is related to the future of Erhe. You see, can
Can't we discuss it with the in-laws and ask them to contribute some money to help? As long as Erhe can make a living, won't they also benefit from it in the future?"
When Wen Leijin's wife heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up and she said in support: "Yes, Yanxia, didn't the in-laws say at that time that they were just temporarily borrowing your bride price? Your brother has been married for several years now, so
They should pay back the money, right? Besides, we don’t want this money randomly, this is for you and Erhe!”
"As long as we can get back the betrothal money, it will be nearly two hundred thousand yuan. We, the old couple, risked our lives and took out the coffin book that cost one hundred thousand yuan. That will mean we have three hundred thousand yuan, and the remaining twenty thousand yuan will be enough."
Ten thousand, we will borrow as much as we can. If it is not enough, we will mortgage our lumber factory and we will be able to raise half a million."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yanxia's face suddenly swelled into a purple color and she was speechless.
She could hear that her parents-in-law had really gone to the limit. Otherwise, her mother-in-law would never have offered to mortgage the lumber factory. But she knew very well that if she wanted to get the gift money back from her parents, it would be impossible.
It's just an impossible thing.
After such a long time, she had already seen through it. Her parents said they were just borrowing it temporarily, but in fact, they had no intention of paying the money back. What's more, her brother also bought a house in the county when he got married.
, the money to buy the house was 100% her original betrothal gift. It has only been a few years now, and her family will never be able to come up with the money.
But no matter how clear she was in her heart, she couldn't tell the truth to her father-in-law and mother-in-law. Now she could still use the verbal agreement to pay back the money later to hold on. If she told the truth, she would be in Lao Wen's house in the future.
Then I really can’t hold my head up.
Things reached a deadlock here, and the living room once again fell into dead silence.
After a long time, Wen Cui suddenly said with some hesitation: "Dad, Mom, I think I heard you say before that there seems to be some big boss in our old Wen family, right? Otherwise, see if you can borrow some money from the big boss.
, if the Erhe thing comes to fruition, I can easily make back half a million!"
Wen Cui thought very clearly. According to her parents, her own lumber factory did not have much future. It would be difficult for her to fight against the autumn wind in the future. But if Wen He could become the director, then she would have a better one.
Got a backer.
After all, blood is thicker than water, and Wen He is still her biological brother no matter what. As long as he is developed, even a little leakage from his fingers will be more than what she worked hard to pull at her parents' home.
When Wen Wen and Liu Yanxia heard this, they were immediately surprised and looked at Wen Cui excitedly.
Liu Yanxia changed her previous mean demeanor and said very affectionately: "Sister, please tell me carefully, what kind of big boss is this? Why haven't you heard your parents mention it before?"
Wen Cui also responded enthusiastically: "His aunt, it's normal that you haven't heard of this, because it has been more than 20 years ago, and Erhe was still young at that time, so how can he remember it.
"
"I remember."
However, before Wen Cui could explain in detail, Wen Leijin interrupted her with a livid face, and said irritably: "You don't have to count on this matter. People are already developed and don't recognize us poor people at all."
Relatives, if you want to borrow money from these two sisters, it is a complete dream!"
"Hey, listen to this, we really have relatives who are big bosses, and there are two of them!" Wen Wen and Liu Yanxia looked at each other, and they felt happy at the same time.
But from what the old man said, this relative is probably the kind of distant relative who is beyond our reach. Otherwise, he wouldn't even be aware of his biological son.
Wen Wen thought for a moment, organized his words a little, and said: "Dad, you'd better talk about it carefully. This matter is of great concern. As long as there is a little hope, we must seize it."
Seeing that Lei Jin had a gloomy look on his face and refused to speak, Wen Wen tentatively guessed: "Are those two relatives too far away from our family and have been out of service for five years? It doesn't matter, I didn't borrow money and won't pay it back, wait.
I became the director, so I can pay them back the little money I have! And when they ask me for help in the future, I promise not to cheat them out of their money!"
