February 18th, the sixth day of the first lunar month.

It is advisable to travel far.

As soon as the sky turned gray and bright, Zhao Jiangchuan had already started the car and started to warm up the engine.

After staying in Kaifeng for five days, it was time to return.

In the hall.

Zhao Donglai took out the 50,000 yuan that he had prepared long ago and stuffed it into Zhao Donghan's arms. Zhao Donghan, an honest farmer, had an angry look on his face.

"Donglai, I can't take this money."

"Why?"

Why else, Zhao Donglai actually knew it well, but he still had to ask.

"There's no reason. Anyway, I can't take this much money."

"You are my eldest brother. If there is anything you can't take, just these tens of thousands of dollars. If it had been you who had been studying all that time, I wouldn't be where I am today. Just take it."

But even though he said this, Zhao Donghan still refused to accept the thick pile of money, and instead sighed.

"Donglai, tell me the truth, is this money yours..."

Zhao Donghan didn't finish what he said, but the meaning of his words was very obvious. He clearly suspected that Zhao Donglai's money came from a bad source.

Zhao Donglai was a little embarrassed, but he was also a little proud.

Don’t be a corrupt official and be straight!

When he came back to celebrate the New Year in previous years, Zhao Donglai didn't give Zhao Donghan money. After all, he was a brother. His eldest brother was living such a difficult life, so he wanted to help.

It's just that in the early days, Zhao Donglai's life was not satisfactory. It was true that he ate public meals, but the salary from public meals was not as high as the income of ordinary workers.

So in the end, Zhao Donghan reluctantly accepted the offer of hundreds of thousands of pieces. Since his two children were still studying, he had no choice but to accept it.

In the past two years, he made some money from the customs, but the money came from improper sources. He himself did not dare to use it openly, so how dare he give it to Zhao Donghan.

But things are different now.

"Brother, don't worry. This money comes from aboveboard sources. If it comes from corruption, do you think I dare to take it back to you?"

Zhao Donglai said this with confidence, but because of this, Zhao Donghan couldn't help but ask.

"Then how did you get the money?"

"It's definitely not from salary. It's not like you don't know about my small salary."

"Ahem..."

Zhao Jiangchuan couldn't help but laugh. This was the first time he saw his father playing tricks.

"Then you said it's not because of corruption. Donglai, it's not easy for us to move out of the countryside. Why don't you know how to cherish it?"

"Brother, it's not what you think. In fact, Xiaochuan earned this money, and that car. All this money was earned by Xiaochuan."

"Zhao Donglai, do you think I am a fool because I have never seen the world in the countryside?

Ogawa is so old, how can he make so much money?

Let me tell you, our family is not supporting you to become a corrupt, blood-sucking official. If you don't pay back the money, don't enter the Zhao family again. "

Since ancient times, elder brothers have been like fathers. Seeing Zhao Donghan become so angry, so...

Zhao Donglai was scared.

He looked pitifully at Zhao Jiangchuan, who was suppressing a smile. His eyes were clearly begging Zhao Jiangchuan for advice.

Zhao Jiangchuan raised his eyebrows, but he did not dare to laugh. Zhao Donghan was so angry that it was completely beyond his expectation.

Inevitably, Zhao Jiangchuan had some real respect and shame for his uncle.

He is five or six years older than Zhao Donglai, but he looks like someone in his sixties when he has just turned fifty. His hair is completely gray and his face is covered with wrinkles like folds.

Even for the Chinese New Year, he didn't change into any new clothes, just wrapped in an old army green cotton coat.

Obviously, the life of the family is very difficult to support two children in school, otherwise, he would not have become like this when he was only in his fifties.

But it was this person who, when faced with a huge sum of money like 50,000 yuan, not only refused to accept it, but actually got so angry.

The angry eyes and the green and red complexion clearly meant that he was really angry.

Why, Zhao Jiangchuan couldn't tell, and he could even see the heartache and worry deep in Zhao Donghan's eyes.

Therefore, Zhao Jiangchuan had a deep respect for his impoverished uncle.

Not anyone can refuse the temptation of such a huge sum of money when they are poor, nor can anyone think about others when they can't live their own life.

Zhao Donghan was obviously angry and worried that Zhao Donglai's money came from the wrong way.

As for being ashamed.

The man he was back then, every time he saw Zhao Dong paying hundreds of dollars to Zhao Donghan during the Chinese New Year, he felt that his family had suffered a loss.

Furthermore, he has never had a good look towards Zhao Donghan's family.

But now, he still doesn't understand what kind of relationship there is between his father's generation.

This is a feeling where blood is thicker than water.

"Uncle, just take it. What my father said is true. I earned all this money. Think about it, how much money can be gained through corruption..."

Zhao Donghan naturally didn't believe this.

"Xiaochuan, don't speak for your father. How can you make so much money while studying? I..."

Different identities, backgrounds, and life patterns naturally lead to different understandings. With Zhao Donghan's concept, he would not easily believe what Zhao Jiangchuan said.

Money is so easy to make.

"Uncle, I don't need to lie to you. I earned this money in the past two months. It's not much, just about two million, but I invested some of the money in the financial market."

…..

Zhao Jiangchuan briefly talked about how he made money, including treasury bond futures, financial markets, securities investment, and long-short games.

Not only was Zhao Donghan confused by the various professional terms, but Zhao Donglai was also confused. This was the first time he heard Zhao Jiangchuan say such professional things.

As for the Zhao Jiangnan brother and sister who stood aside and dared not speak, their mouths had long been opened as if they were stuffed with duck eggs. It was not until this moment that they completely believed that what Zhao Jiangchuan said before was true.

"Uncle, do you think my father's former section chief could embezzle hundreds or tens of millions?"

After saying all this, Zhao Jiangchuan stood with a smile.

Therefore, Zhao Donghan believed it.

Even if he didn't understand what Zhao Jiangchuan was talking about at all.

His younger brother Zhao Donglai had lowered his head unconsciously, while Zhao Jiangchuan had a faint smile on his face.

It's just the confidence and arrogance in Zhao Jiangchuan's eyes. How could Zhao Donghan, who has lived a long time, not see it, and still not understand what all this means.

It was obvious that his son's ability had surpassed that of my father, and Zhao Donglai was a little embarrassed to be his father.

Zhao Donghan's expression was very complicated. After a moment, he smiled again. This smile made the wrinkles on his face seem to fade a lot. This smile contained indescribable relief and relief.
