Chapter 232: Teach a Man to Fish [3200]

The sixth son of the Lu family whom Lu Yang knew before his rebirth.

He is a rather selfish businessman. He is very successful in business, but he has never helped his family members, including his brothers, nephews, nieces, not to mention his sisters. None of his blood relatives have ever taken advantage of him.

Don't think this is nothing.

This is a very difficult thing to imagine in the south, especially in rural areas where clan concepts are very conservative.

Lu Yang still remembers that before his rebirth, about 30 years later, he returned to his hometown and met the sixth son of the Lu family, who was already a big boss at that time.

The sixth son of the Lu family is almost 50 years old. He has his own full-time driver, and even the car he drives is a luxury car worth more than seven or eight million.

Lu Yang asked him curiously, "You are so rich, and your brothers and sisters are all living in poverty and still living in the countryside. Why don't you help them? It's ok to support the younger generation, or even help their children. Isn't it a piece of cake?"

At that time, Lao Liu said: "If you don't work hard, how can I help you? Do you know what kind of people I hire in my company? At least they have a college degree. What can they do? Help me guard the door? Wouldn't that be embarrassing for me? Haha, forget it. Everyone has his own way of living. If they don't work hard, why should I help them?"

At that time, the sixth son of the Lu family was very arrogant and had the aura of a big boss. He kept belittling his older brothers and younger brothers, including several nephews and nieces. In short, none of them caught his eye.

He doesn't help them because they are useless. If they had any potential, they would definitely not need his help.

Lu Yang really wanted to refute at that time.

But since we haven't seen each other for decades, some things are hard to say.

But he could see that this kid was getting cocky, with a look of arrogance in his eyes. He was no longer the sixth son of the Lu family that he knew decades ago.

Of course, I have been away from my hometown for decades.

Specifically speaking of my uncle's family, I have no idea whether there have been any irreconcilable internal conflicts or stories among these nine people over the past few decades.

In the end, we had no choice but to drop the topic and move on to other things.

Now it seems that it is the environment that changes a person.

At least the sixth son of the Lu family in front of him did not have any of the selfishness, arrogance and contempt for blood relatives of later generations.

He even thought of ways to buy a motorcycle and help his sister and brother-in-law out of poverty.

"I've thought about it, cousin. If there are no conditions to get rich, we should create them. Otherwise, my sister and brother-in-law may never be able to leave the mountain for the rest of their lives."

Lu Youzhi said seriously.

I give a thumbs up to him for not encouraging his sister to divorce and abandon her poor brother-in-law just because he became rich.

Lu Yang nodded secretly.

He sounded so sincere in what he said, and now that she thought about it, her second cousin's husband was not only a bit more honest, tall, and energetic, he was indeed quite good. Judging from his appearance alone, he was more than a match for her second cousin.

"Well, let me ask for you."

Lu Yang took out his mobile phone and called the fat man Zhao Shi.

"Hello, Captain Zhao, do you have a moment? I want to ask you something."

Captain Zhao has a blue Suzuki AX100 motorcycle.

Lu Yang had seen it and even ridden in it. Old Wei had borrowed it from him and had taken Lu Yang on a speeding trip to the county town.

I thought it was pretty good at the time.

Lao Wei drove very smoothly along the way.

However, this motorcycle is a bit expensive.

Just take the selling price as an example, it’s over 1.

However, Lu Yang didn't know any other acquaintances who had motorcycles at home, so he could only ask this fat guy Zhao.

This fat guy Zhao is quite wild and has dozens of people under him. He is neither big nor small and is more or less a figure in the state-owned coal mine. It will be right to ask him.

"Boss Lu, what a rare guest! Why did you think of calling me?"

Zhao Shi was very happy when he received Lu Yang's call.

In his eyes, Lu Yang's status is rising day by day. When he first met him last year, he was just Brother Lu. Later, he learned that Lu Yang returned to his hometown to set up a garment factory. He took a batch of fabrics back from Lu Yang, which made him and Director Li behind him a lot of money. After that, he was promoted to Brother Lu.

Who would have thought that not long after the Chinese New Year, less than half a year later, the Chashan Coal Mine incident happened. Wow, it turns out that they were so powerful.

He would take out two million dollars to attack people at any time.

The county and Director Li, who had listed his company, both agreed to allow others to invest in the Chashan Coal Mine.

Judging from this incident alone, I can no longer care about Brother Lu, I have to call him Boss Lu properly.

Otherwise, it would be unfair to others for being so generous.

Lu Yang smiled and said, "What's the difference between a rare guest and not a rare guest? Based on the relationship between us, Brother Zhao, please give me something. Aren't we good buddies? Isn't it right for a good buddy to come to you when he has something to do?" This sentence seemed to be a reproach, but in fact, it brought the two people closer together.

Inside the phone.

Sure enough, the voice on the other end laughed even more happily.

Fatty Zhao Shi said cheerfully, "Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong, Brother Lu, you can say whatever you want. I'm risking my life today. Even if you make me make a mistake, I'll admit it."

Of course, Lu Yang would not take it too seriously, and he also said cheerfully: "How dare I? If your Captain Zhao really makes a mistake, please don't blame me. This is what I want to ask you. It's about motorcycles. I have a relative who wants to buy a motorcycle."

"What am I supposed to do? It's a small matter. Then tell me about his budget first?"

The voice of Fatty Zhao came from the phone.

Lu Yang moved the mobile phone slightly away and looked at Lao Liu opposite him.

Whispered: "What's the budget?"

Lu Youzhi thought about it.

He had seen the Suzuki AX100 before, but he had never ridden in one. He also knew that the car was quite expensive.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Cousin, the mountain road near my second sister and second brother-in-law's home is really not easy to travel. If I use a cheap motorcycle, I'm afraid it will be unsafe. Can you ask Captain Zhao for me to see if there is a motorcycle with better climbing ability, durability, and reliability? If that doesn't work, then this Suzuki AX100 will be fine. I can accept any motorcycle under 1 yuan."

Then he whispered, "I haven't saved that much money myself, cousin, you may need to help me advance some, just... just deduct it from my salary in the future."

This is for sure.

He had been working for Lu Yang for less than a year. He was paid 150 yuan in the first few months, which was later increased to 300 yuan, then to 600 yuan, and finally to 800 yuan when he became a manager. But even if he calculated his salary in full, including travel allowances, it would definitely be less than yuan.

Lu Yang thought it was nothing big.

The natural way is: No problem.

Then he repeated these words to the fat man Zhao on the other side of the phone.

When Fatty Zhao heard this, he immediately gave an answer: "If you want something durable, with strong climbing ability and the ability to carry heavy loads, then you have to go for the Yamaha 80. This bike meets all the requirements you mentioned. It can seat three or four adults and carry 7000 to 100 kilograms. It's not a problem, and it's not expensive. It seems that a new one is only a little over yuan. Anyway, it's much cheaper than my Suzuki AX."

Lu Yang also said as soon as he heard it: "That's it, Brother Zhao, can you find a way to help me get a car as soon as possible?"

"Well, is it urgent? If it's a new car, it may take some time, but if it's a second-hand car, I happen to know a friend who has a Yamaha 80 at home. He hasn't been ridden much, so it's probably about 5000% new. I'll go and talk to you, brother Lu, and I think I can get it for yuan. Why don't you ask your relatives if they're willing to buy a second-hand one?"

Fatty Zhao said on the phone.

Lu Yang moved the mobile phone away from his ear again, and then said to Lao Liu across from him, "How is it? Will an old one work? It should be about 5000% new. He said he could get one for less than yuan."

How could Lu Youzhi not agree? He said happily, "Cousin, you decide. 5000 is just enough for me. I don't need you to lend me more. I can save some money for marrying a wife in the future. Haha..."

Lu Yang shook his head and said into the phone, "Okay, I'll trouble you, Brother Zhao. Go ahead and negotiate. No matter what the price is, I'll give you 5000. If the other party really doesn't want to sell it for 5000, then we can discuss it again and see if we can get a new car through other means as soon as possible."

"Brother Lu is indeed a man of few words. It's settled then. Wait for my good news."

Lu Yang hung up the phone.

"It's done."

He said to Lao Liu across from him, "I estimate that we should be able to get the car in two or three days. You should also prepare it. After you get the car, send it to your brother-in-law. Don't delay your trip to Guangzhou."

Lu Youzhi nodded.

I was just about to say something else...

Lu Yang then said, "I remember that there should be extra sewing machines in the factory now, right? The training tasks are getting easier now. If we just make samples, we won't need so many sewing machines. So, when you get the car and send it to your brother-in-law, you can also move a sewing machine from the factory. Otherwise, you can't make clothes without a sewing machine if you only have a means of transportation."

These sewing machines were loaned to the factory by various companies when the factory was first opened.

But because there was always a need in the factory, after the training, these sewing machines were used to make samples for the skilled aunts, so Lu Yang simply bought all the sewing machines. Anyway, no one needed them now.

I remember there was one of them that originally belonged to my uncle's family. My eldest cousin bought it for my sister-in-law, who would work in the factory after she gave birth to a baby. The couple would make clothes for the factory. Of course, they don't need it now.

In the future, even if Sister Taozi wants to find a job, Lu Yang can arrange her for an easier job, just like what they had agreed at the time, to be a clothing salesperson in the county market.

Lu Youzhi said gratefully: "This, cousin, I'm afraid it's not good, right?"

Up to now, all the seamstresses signed by the factory have used sewing machines at home. Families without sewing machines simply have no conditions to reach a contract with the factory to sew clothes. Now this has set a precedent.

Lu Yang laughed and scolded him, "What do you mean by 'I'm afraid it's not good'? You think this sewing machine was moved over in the name of the factory, right? Am I so stingy? Even you can generously buy a motorcycle for your second sister and second brother-in-law. So what if I gave a sewing machine to my cousin and her husband? It was given in the name of a private person, so who has the right to say anything?"

He could only help so much.

In the end, my second cousin and her husband had to walk the road themselves.
