Chapter 411
Seeing Xu Mucheng's shocked look, Chen Haoxuan smiled and said to Xu Mucheng, "Is there anything you want to say?"
Since Xu Mucheng was holding her head high, gazing at the Buddha statue on the stone wall, her subconscious mind replied to Chen Hao Xuan's words, "Yes, four words, majestic." Xu Mucheng swore that she had never seen such a majestic Buddha statue, inside the temple, the stone walls were filled with Buddha statues, each one carved in a lifelike manner, she silently counted them, and as she counted, she even forgot where she started, so she could see how many Buddha statues there were on the stone walls.
"You don't need to count, there are 9,999 Buddha statues inside this temple, none of them are duplicates, all of them are famous Buddhas." Chen Haoxuan said.
After a while, Xu Mucheng finally came out of her shock, and pointing to the top, she said to Chen Haoxuan, "Why is there no light at the top of this!"
Chen Haoxuan explained, "This is because I want you to feel that this temple is very, very high, so high that you can't see the top. So I had someone make a candle light in front of each Buddha statue, the light at the bottom is the brightest, then the higher you go the darker it gets, and at the top you simply don't have a candle light anymore, so when you look over, the top is dark and you can't see anything. I suppose you feel like it's very, very high up at the top too?"
"You're such a genius, you thought of all this." Xu Mucheng said to Chen Haoxuan in admiration.
"Thank you for the compliment." Being complimented would be enjoyed by anyone, no matter how big they were, and Chen Haoxuan was no exception.
Chen Haoxuan was like a tour guide, every time he took Xu Mucheng to a place, he would tell Xu Mucheng in detail how that place was built, and if it was one with a story, he would also tell one or two. At the river, for example, he made two human statues, ready for visitors to worship. The reason he did this was to give the Chen family village some more legends, he didn't just make them up.
Xu Mucheng, when she heard it, even complained that Chen Haoxuan had deliberately made her cry.
The village was not very big, but Chen Hao Xuan needed to tell Xu Mucheng details about each place he visited, so Xu Mucheng stayed in the village for three days before completing her mission. When she left, she was reluctant to leave because she was really happy with the time she spent with Chen Haoxuan. In addition, staying at Chen Hao Xuan's villa made her realise what a rich person's life is like.
After Xu Mucheng returned to the tour agency, she wrote a very detailed information to her boss, and then brought their tour agency to bring Chenjia Village, so that they could familiarise themselves with the environment, otherwise it would be embarrassing to bring tourists over and get lost.
Within a few days, the number of visitors to Chenjia Village began to increase, and when there were more visitors, Chen Hao Xuan suggested that the villagers should set up stalls.
The villagers of Chen's village had not yet started to earn an income, but they could all see that it would not be long before they would be rich. Everywhere they went in the Chen family village, people envied them and said that it would be great if Chen Haoxuan was from their village.
Chen Hao Xuan is a big shot in China and can be considered the most famous rich man in China, his every move can easily make the news, he leads the villagers to transform the whole Chen family village, how big the project is, without hope, the people of China will scold those reporters for being unprofessional.
Fang Zhiyu (Chen Hao Xuan's sister-in-law) she saw the news about the Chen family village, she was moved to persuade her husband to return to the Chen family village, she thought that a big man like Chen Hao Xuan, as long as they stop looking for trouble with him, I believe Chen Hao Xuan will not look for trouble with them either.
Fang Zhiyu she told her husband about her idea and he agreed. In fact, without Fang Zhiyu saying it, Chen Hao Rong wanted to go back because he didn't want to work part-time, not only was he tired half to death every day, but he was often scolded by his boss. Now everyone in Chen's village has a chance to make a fortune, and there are not many such opportunities! If he doesn't go back sooner, he won't have any money left. He hadn't forgotten that he was a Chen family member, and that his account still belonged to the Chen family! He was also from Chen's village, but others were getting rich and he wasn't. He would be very upset.
Chen Hao Rong and his wife immediately packed up their things and boarded a long-distance bus back to Xinsan City. They didn't ask for the money they had earned in the factory, even though they were poor now, but they had been a big boss in the past.
When Chen Haorong returned to the village with his wife, they smiled when they saw the lively scene. The people of Chen's village had indeed become rich, each wearing decent clothes and glowing red, and it was clear from a glance that they were now leading a good life. Chen Haorong was probably so different from what he was wearing now that many of the villagers didn't recognise the couple, because Chen Haorong used to wear designer clothes, gold necklaces, gold rings and so on. But what about the current Chen Haorong! Wearing ordinary casual clothes and carrying two luggage bags, he was a bit shabby.
Chen Haorong, he remembered his home. When he pushed the door in, he saw his mother feeding the chickens in the yard. His mother, Li Xin, was poorly dressed, more like a peasant than a farmer.
"Mom, I'm back." Chen Haorong shouted.
Hearing someone shouting for her mother, Li Xin looked up and after seeing clearly that it was her son, Chen Haorong, she dropped the basin she was holding to the ground with a thud. "Hao Rong, go, go, go, when your father comes back, you will be finished." Li Xin said anxiously to her son, at first her son had put the couple through a lot, she could see through it now and let nature take its course, but her husband Chen Zhenghao had always hated Chen Haorong, and said that if Chen Haorong came back, he would ki ll him with his own hands.
Chen Haorong was not happy, he was a member of the family and their son, how could he kick them out as soon as he came back. He said angrily, "Mum, your son has just returned, so even if you care about me, how can you still drive me away! Do you really want to acknowledge me as your son?"
Fang Zhiyu, who spoke out to Li Xin, said, "Mom, how can you do this, do you really want to cut off the Chen family's incense?" After all, Chen Hao Xuan had already cleared his relationship with them, and only her husband could be considered a member of the Chen family, so if she drove him away, then the family line would naturally be broken.
Chen Zhenghao, who was carrying a hoe back, he was furious when he saw Chen Haorong and his wife: "Rebel son, how dare you come back, see if I don't beat you."
Chapter 412
"Dad, are you crazy? I'm your son." Chen Haorong couldn't believe it, it had been a few years and his dad still refused to forgive him.
"I don't have a son like you. You could have left if you wanted to, but you ran up a huge debt and caused your mother and I to be almost kil led by those employees of yours. After you left home, you haven't made a single phone call or sent a letter back, in your eyes you don't have a family at all. I guess you're back now because you want a piece of the pie with the Chen family village, right? Let me tell you, you don't want to dream, Chen Hao Xuan has long since stopped treating us as family, he has brought the whole Chen family village to get rich this time, our family has no part to play, so get back from wherever you came from!" Chen Zhenghao said angrily, he wanted to beat his son with a hoe, but he still couldn't bear to do it.
"No way, you're lying to me, but I've heard that those people who had problems with Chen Hao Xuan in the past, Chen Hao Xuan has turned all their problems into peace with them, we should be the same." Chen Haorong didn't believe what his dad said was true, but he had read in the newspaper that those people who had tried to take advantage of Chen Haoxuan in the past and had made Chen Haoxuan so angry that he moved his garment factory away had all made up with Chen Haoxuan again, so his family should have made peace with Chen Haoxuan too.
"You pig! You don't even think about what they did to Chen Haoxuan and what we did to Chen Haoxuan." Chen Zhenghao huffed.
Li Xin she spoke out to remind Chen Haorong, saying, "Haorong ah! You should understand very well that those who made Chen Hao Xuan so angry that Chen Hao Xuan helped the garment factory away in a fit of anger, and those who said bad things about Chen Hao Xuan, they were all just trying to take a small advantage from Chen Hao Xuan. And what about us! We treated him badly since he was a child, and then kicked him out of the house afterwards, and when he got rich, we shared our property with him, and finally tried to ki ll him. Now you now why Chen Hao Xuan hasn't forgiven us, right?"
Chen Haorong he was still not dead, he spoke out, "Even if he doesn't forgive us, what can he do, to know that we are also people of the Chen family village, the river of the Chen family village, the mountain of the Chen family village, the land of the Chen family village, we all have a share as people of the Chen family village, he now expropriated our land, he has to pay me."
Li Xin spoke out again, "You are wrong, he is leading the villagers to develop the whole Chenjia Village, it is all the villagers who have a share, except our family."
Chen Zhenghao threw his hoe to the side and cursed at Chen Haorong and his wife, saying, "Is it clear now? If you're clear, get out of here."
Chen Haorong was in a bad mood, he threw the luggage on his back on the ground, pointed at his dad and shouted angrily, "Why should I leave, this small house is mine, if you want to leave, it is you who should leave." After saying that he turned to his wife, and said, "You take the luggage into our room and see what he can do to us."
The house was indeed Chen Haorong's, when he and Chen Haoxuan split up, he inherited all of Chen Zhenghao's family property, which was actually the farmland and this piece of land, and he became the head of the family, so the deed to this field and the deed to the house were written in his name.
Chen Hao Rong's words made Chen Zhenghao's face purple with anger, and he covered his chest, looking at his painful look, he might have had a heart attack from the anger.
When Li Xin saw her husband suddenly covering his chest with a very distressed look, she rushed over and asked anxiously, "Zhenghao, what's wrong with you, don't scare me!"
Chen Zhenghao, he said word by word, "Go and get our luggage out, let's go, I won't live in his house even if I die." (I didn't add the - sign, I was afraid you would say I was filling up) Li Xin, her face was pale, they left, where would they go to live? Could they go to Chen Haoxuan's place? She spoke out to her husband, "Zhenghao, we're leaving, there's no place to live, let's just put up with it! When Hao Rong's anger subsides, we can still get along as well as before!"
Chen Zhenghao was angry at the sight of his son, and if he continued to live here, he might be angry with his son one day. He said to his wife, "Go to your mother's house, don't you have a lot of old houses? We'll go and live in those old houses, it's better than seeing this rebellious son here."
Li Xin she also tried to persuade Chen Zhenghao, but Chen Zhenghao just wanted to go, and said that if Li Xin didn't want to, she would stay and he would go alone. In the end, Li Xin went with Chen Zhenghao.
The sound of Chen Zhenghao's family quarrelling was so loud that a few villagers who passed by his house heard it clearly. Gossip is the only entertainment in the countryside and villagers are fond of it. So it didn't take long for word to spread about the Chen Zhenghao family's quarrel, and half of the villagers in the Chen family village knew about it. If it had been in the past, it would have been known to the whole village, but now it was different, many of the villagers now had jobs, so the news did not spread as fast as before.
When Chen Hao Xuan heard that Chen Hao Rong had come back and kicked him, Chen Zhenghao and Li Xin, out, he was upset and he thought Chen Hao Rong had gone too far. He also felt bad for his parents, who had always loved their son, who had abandoned them a few years ago, and then, a few years later, came back and threw them out of the house, sadly!
Honestly, Chen Hao Xuan really hated Chen Zhenghao's family, that family, and although he used to have a part in it, he lived a life that was worse than a dog. His parents called him a ba sta rd, his brother abused him every day because he was handsome, his sister-in-law took a liking to him and seduced him because of his good looks, and when he didn't comply, he was scolded by his sister-in-law every day, and finally provoked her husband to kick him out of the house when he was still studying.
This family is the most tangled family Chen Hao Xuan has ever seen, it is not too much to say that the people in this family are all psychotic, this is true, that is the old Chen Hao Xuan is also very abnormal, bullied by his family to be as timid as a mouse, can't do anything but study, even the girls drive to bully him, if this is not a problem of nerves, then what is it? If it wasn't for Chen Hao Xuan, who was reborn from the future century, this family, I'm afraid, would be even worse.
Chen Hao Xuan learned from the villagers that Chen Hao Rong had come back this time to share the money with the villagers, and when he heard this news, he laughed, he laughed at Chen Hao Rong for being stupid and rushing straight back to yell about sharing the money without inquiring clearly. He was not afraid of being beaten up by the villagers, because the money earned by the Chen Agricultural Company was all the money of the investors, and Chen Haorong, who had not contributed any money, would not agree to share the money with them.
Chen Hao Rong is still shrewd, he did not go to Chen Hao Xuan to share the money on the day he came back, he found a few friends who used to play well and spent a few hundred dollars to invite them to a meal to investigate the current situation of the Chen family village from their mouths.
Chapter 413
The next day, early in the morning Chen Haorong bought some fruit and went to Li Ping's house, he inquired yesterday, now Chen's agricultural company Li Ping said, which made him happy for a long time, because he thought it was Chen Haoxuan.
Chen Haorong carried a fruit basket to Li Ping's house, he knocked on the door, no response? So he knocked again and shouted loudly, "Is anyone home?"
At that moment, a villager happened to pass by and kindly said to Chen Haorong, "Li Ping's family moved to a new house long ago, just off the highway. That most luxurious villa is Li Ping's family's, it's very recognisable."
Chen Haorong felt very bad because he couldn't see others well. Li Ping's family used to be the poorest in Chenjia Village, but now, apart from Chen Haoxuan, their family was the richest, and now not only did both couples become managers, they also lived in a luxurious villa.
Chen Haorong walked out of the Chen family village and came to the highway. He saw several houses built along the highway, and the most dazzling one was the luxurious villa like a palace. Chen Haorong he sighed and said, "Alas, such a person can get rich and live in a villa, God is really blind."
Chen Haorong came to the front door of Li Ping's house and rang the doorbell a few times, and it didn't take long for Li Ping to come out. Li Ping was wearing a lady's suit, and if she was given a pair of glasses, she would be more like a white collar worker.
Seeing Li Ping come out, Chen Haorong politely said to Li Ping, "Aunt Ping, do you remember me? I'm Hao Rong! I've been living next door to you." This was the first time Chen Haorong had ever called Li Ping by her name, but never by her name.
Li Ping did not like Chen Haorong, who had almost kil led her future son-in-law, and she said to him indifferently, "What do you want from me?"
Chen Haorong said to Li Ping with an ingratiating smile, "Aunt Ping, it's like this, I just returned to the Chen family village yesterday, I heard that our Chen family village now has a Chen agricultural company, each person needs to invest to join, I am here to invest now, please help me to get a contract."
Li Ping shook her head and said, "I can't make the decision, because the investment has long passed, and besides, you haven't participated once in the renovation project of Chen's village in these six months, so it's hard for you to join now, unless Xiao Xuan nods, or more than fifty-one percent of the stockholders are willing for you to join."
He had a bad reputation in Chen's village, he had been involved in many fights and brawls, and he often stole chickens and dogs, and when he had made some money, he despised every one of them. As for Chen Haoxuan, he didn't dare to ask, because he knew he didn't have to - Chen Haoxuan wouldn't agree to help him either.
Chen Haorong was not willing to do so, he had thrown his job away and come back, if he could not get anything, he would not rest. How come I don't get a share? You know, I am also a member of the Chen Family Village, and I also have a share in those mountains."
Li Ping frowned and said, "Don't think that just because you're from the Chen family village, you'll get money, I'm telling you, there's no such thing under the sun. The soil by the river belongs to our village, but if we don't plant anything, there won't be any money! All the bamboo seedlings planted by the river are from the villagers in the mountains. The reservoir on the mountain, the pig farm, the chicken farm ...... were all built by the villagers with great effort and it took them half a year to build them! Don't look at their initial investment of only a few hundred yuan, but in fact if you count their half-year labor, they each invested tens of thousands of RMB.
You could say this, Chen's Agricultural Company was built by Xiao Xuan who led everyone to build it, it was built by everyone's hard work and hands day by day, so to the villagers, Chen's Agricultural Company means a lot to them, and these cannot be measured in money. When you didn't pay anything in the beginning, now when you see that everyone is living a good life, you want to come and share the pie with everyone, there is no such reason."
Chen Haorong huffed, "Fine, even if I didn't pay anything, then I should be compensated with some money, right? Think about it, I am also a member of the Chen family village, now you have hijacked all the resources of the Chen family village, I have a share in all those resources, you won't let me join your company, then compensate me for my losses, get the money and I will leave immediately."
"I am the manager of Chen's Agricultural Company yes, but my boss is all the villagers, I can't make the decision, why don't you go to them? I will give you as much money as they are willing to compensate you. If it's too much trouble for you, I can do you this favour, I'll post a notice to the announcement board in the village and ask the villagers who agree to your request to come to me and sign it, as long as the shares they hold reach fifty percent or more, how much they say they'll give you - I'll give you, it's all their money anyway," Li Ping said.
Getting the villagers to agree to give him a share of the villagers' own money was not something anyone with a brain would agree to, because giving it to him would not benefit the villagers one bit, only the others.
Chen Haorong didn't expect such a result, he didn't have to go to the villagers to help him, he didn't have to go to the villagers to know that none of them would help him, because if he was a shareholder of Chen's Agricultural Company, he wouldn't want anyone else to share his money.
Chen Haorong he turned into a plea this time: "Aunt Ping, tell me, what other projects can be invested in Chen's village now? I can invest a few thousand dollars, and if it's not enough, I can take the house to the bank and mortgage it for a hundred thousand or so, and then use it to invest?"
Li Ping shook her head and sighed, "Sorry, now that the transformation of Chenjia Village has been completed, there are no other projects that need investment. Even the work in Chenjia Village is not available, as all the work in Chenjia Village is done by the stockholders."
Chen Haoxuan, who was carrying a thermos bottle in his hand, he was followed by a giant Tibetan mastiff, who had come to walk his dog and casually take some of the breakfast he had cooked for Li Ping's couple to try.
Li Ping she saw Chen Haoxuan coming, her smile suddenly appeared on her face, she happily shouted to Chen Haoxuan, "Haoxuan, you're carrying a thermos in your hand, you didn't cook us a delicious breakfast again, did you!"
"Aunt Ping, your nose is really smart, you can smell it from so far away, I brought you lobster congee today, it tastes superb." Chen Haoxuan smilingly said to Li Ping, Chen Haorong was in front of him, he didn't even look at him, he just ignored it.
Li Ping she opened the door, took the thermos bottle in Chen Haoxuan's hand, smiled and said, "You kid, do your best to please people."
Chen Haorong he said secretly in his heart, "Or should I bow down to Chen Haoxuan? Maybe if he is soft-hearted, he will be able to gain a lot of benefits himself."
