Since enrolling in school in September 2003, Li Zhan, like all soldiers, will lose the concept of money in a short period of time.
At Huaqing University, these Air Force trainees are completely different from other students. Not only do they not have to bear all the expenses themselves, but they are also paid monthly student wages, or student allowances. As future Air Force pilots, their incomes are higher compared to other branches of the military.
It's very high.
You don’t have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and for a long time there was no place to spend money at all. It is inevitable to lose the concept of money. Over time, in the hearts of Li Zhan, money is just money, without many worldly meanings.
Until now, until he resolutely and decisively signed a credit loan contract with the bank and a house purchase agreement with Xiangjiang Garden, he incurred a debt of up to 500,000 yuan in just one afternoon, and then returned home to tell the matter, and was faced with a dumbfounded
It was only then that he realized that he had done something huge.
When Li Jianguo and Ye Huihua tasted nothing, Li Zhan ate a big meal and comforted him, "You really don't have to worry. I have a provident fund every month and a salary of seven or eight thousand. I won't be able to use much as the army doesn't have money to spend."
It can be repaid in a year. Besides, house prices will definitely rise in the future. If they can double, the loan money will be earned back."
After taking a bite of the food, Li Xiang said, "My brother has said so. What are you worried about? Besides, why should the bank give me a loan? It's not because he is an army officer. Any unit may go bankrupt, but the army will not. There are
What do the troops have to worry about?"
His words made Li Jianguo feel a little more relaxed, and he asked Li Zhan, "The troops are telling the truth? Do you want the troops to help you pay back?"
How could such a good thing happen!
But in order to reassure him, Li Zhan opened his mouth and made it up, "Of course. Dad, do you know how much investment it takes for the army to train a pilot? I'm just a new pilot. I calculated that in the past five years, the army has at least
I invested more than half a million yuan. It will take at least five years until I fully mature and become a backbone, and the investment will be bigger and bigger every year. That day I told my mother about the rod fee, and I flew in the sky for an hour.
The army gives me a subsidy of several hundred yuan per hour. In addition to aviation fuel, maintenance, and other miscellaneous things, if you add them all up, the army will have to invest at least nearly one million in me in the next five years. You
If the army invests so much money in me, will it affect my work because I can't pay for my house?"
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, the troops will definitely not ignore it." Ye Huihua was more looking for recognition than recognition.
Li Jianguo thought about it carefully, thinking of the few rank-level civil servants he only knew in government units, and nodded subconsciously, "That's the truth. Yes, the army has invested so much money, and it will definitely not be ignored."
Spreading his hands, Li Zhan said, "So, what do you have to worry about?"
"I've already bought everything for dinner and shopping. There's no point regretting it!" Li Jianguo waved his hand, completely accepting the facts.
In the past ten years or so, Li Jianguo and his wife's savings have never exceeded 10,000 yuan. Ye Huihua even thought that 10,000 was ten yuan. You can imagine what a debt of 500,000 yuan means to them. The sky has fallen.
Now, their son has stood up.
Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. The theme of Li Zhan's family has been poverty for a long time. Chen Fei's family is not poor, but he also has a lot of worries.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Li Zhan was busy greeting relatives and friends who came to celebrate his mother's birthday, while Chen Fei took Zheng Ruolin's Audi car to attend the class reunion.
Driving through the bustling urban area and onto the suburban highway, Zheng Ruolin carefully avoided the large group of motorcycles traveling with relatives on the highway and said to Chen Fei, "I remember that your parents are both employees of the Power Supply Bureau. The conditions should be good. You
You’re a pilot again. Where can you find such conditions? How come you’re not married yet?”
Chen Fei shook his head helplessly, "I have been introduced to a lot by people at home, and I have met a few, but they are not suitable. It's not that I hate blind dates, I just feel that marriage has become a business, and I can't accept it."
"How about we just make do with each other," Zheng Ruolin joked.
Chen Fei chuckled.
Zheng Ruolin covered it up and said, "Just kidding, I'm divorced. Although I don't have children, your parents should be very concerned about it."
"Let's not talk about it anymore, it's annoying." Chen Fei said, "That's right, where is the party? Are you going to the north of the city?"
Zheng Ruolin pointed forward with her hand. There were three people sitting on a motorcycle on the right side. She avoided a piece of gravel in front of her and suddenly broke it to the left. Zheng Ruolin was so frightened that she braked suddenly and screamed at the windshield.
He scolded, "I'll throw you into the street and you'll die!"
Chen Fei was startled, holding on to the armrest tightly, his face turned a little pale, "Drive slowly, drive slowly, you are not in a hurry, drive slowly."
After resuming driving, Zheng Ruolin looked at Chen Fei and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Aren't you? This is only about 30 times an hour. Is it fast? You are also a pilot. Planes are much faster than cars!"
"That's different, the sky is different from the earth." Chen Fei said with a forced smile.
"I don't understand." Zheng Ruolin covered her mouth and smiled and said, "Wang Gang, remember? He is the bad boy who started a small business in the school since the first grade of high school. He booked a villa in the northern suburbs and held the party there."
An image of a young and Dangerous boy flashed before Chen Fei's eyes, and he said, "He is not running a small business. He hangs out with a group of social youths and collects protection fees for others."
"Today is different from the past. I am now a local young entrepreneur. Look at me, driving an A4 and others think I am living a good life. In fact, it is nothing. Wang Gang is driving a Bentley worth millions. He seems to be only thirty.
Yeah, I remember she is two or three years older than many people in the class." Zheng Ruolin was a little proud, a little sad and a little disappointed, her tone was very complicated.
Chen Fei was still digesting this information, and Zheng Ruolin counted it out in detail, "There are also Zhou Guoquan, Lin Dingmao, and Guo Jiahao. They are either civil servants or their own bosses. They can easily earn millions a year. Oh, do you remember the class beauty, Liu Haihan,
She is amazing. She is an associate professor at the Conservatory of Music. Many singers have studied music with her. She often participates in music programs on TV stations and is well-known throughout the country."
The changes have been huge.
But it’s only time to graduate from high school, so how can one of his old classmates do better than the other? Aren’t they all in their twenties, seventy-eight years old, and the oldest is only in their early thirties? Compared with these people, Chen Fei couldn’t stand it
Make up your mind not to reveal your income no matter who asks.
The scene of the party was quite different from what I had imagined. The seats were not packed as I thought. There were only a dozen students sitting in a box of more than 100 square meters and a large round table that could seat more than 30 people.
Today, this villa only accepts their group of guests.
"Boss Wang, this is a big deal!" Zheng Ruolin was also a little surprised and teased her as soon as she entered the door.
The classmates who were chatting together stopped and looked at each other, and their eyes quickly focused on Chen Fei's face, and it suddenly became lively. Zheng Ruolin saw her often, and she was usually keen on organizing gatherings, so she was very familiar with it. Chen Fei was rare to see.
, ten years later, he has become taller and more handsome.
"Chen Fei! Captain Chen! Hahaha, I finally meet you. The most promising person in our class is you, an air force pilot! You fly a fighter jet! How do you compare to my old Bentley?"
He strode forward to greet a man of medium build wearing a slim casual suit wearing Jiang Stanton. He was none other than Wang Gang, the richest man. He opened his arms and hugged Chen Fei, patted his shoulders enthusiastically, turned sideways and barely put his arm around Chen Fei's shoulders.
, introducing it loudly to everyone.
All kinds of compliments came up, mainly to Wang Gang, and he also expressed his sincere admiration to Chen Fei, saying that the People's Liberation Army has worked hard and how great the soldiers are, but he didn't give up at all. After Chen Fei dealt with it for a while,
, suddenly felt bored.
He missed the time when they first met, when everyone was a little reserved and sincere. But now, nothing but hypocrisy is flattery.
After greetings, we took our seats.
More than a dozen middle-aged women in festive red cheongsams brought the dishes to the table. The three waiters responsible for serving were carefully selected young girls from the villa. Several boxes of Moutai Wuliangye Lafite were placed at the wine table.
Wang Gang regretfully covered up his embarrassment with a confident tone and said, "Many classmates from other places were unable to make it back. Some of those who made it back went to visit relatives today. It is important to come back during the Chinese New Year at the end of the year. Visiting relatives is also very important, so don't force it.
There are only a dozen of us who are doing this. But it’s good that there are less people and it’s not so chaotic. We can have a good chat and rekindle our classmates. We didn’t prepare much for today. Maotai Wuliangye and I asked someone to buy it from abroad.
When Lafite comes back, he can make white wine and white wine. If he likes to drink red wine, he can drink red wine. In short, he must drink it."
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another, and Lin Dingmao then told a sleazy joke, which made the whole room burst into laughter and the atmosphere became lively.
Guo Jiahao ordered a soft Chinese and said with a smile, "Wang Gang, you didn't choose this place very well. There is no place in the city that is better than here."
As he spoke, he glanced at the middle-aged female waiter who was walking out after serving the food.
"It's not just a phone call because we can get closer to the city." Wang Gang suddenly got the idea and said, "Otherwise, after having lunch here, we can go directly to the city and find a resort to soak in.
After resting in the hot spring, I will arrange Teluk in the city in the evening and talk all night long. What do you think?"
Noila Mo glanced at Liu Haihan, who was smiling with his lips pursed, and said, "Mr. Wang, are you asking for the opinions of all of us, or are you mainly asking for the opinions of our Professor Liu?"
In fact, Chen Fei also saw that Wang Gang's focus was neither on Noila Mo nor on him, but on Liu Haihan. He even suspected that this so-called gathering was specially organized to pursue Liu Haihan.
