Chapter 479: The Numb Billionaire

Watching the two sons get off the helicopter, Old Man Tang and the two hurriedly walked down the steps.

"Dad, Mom!" The son and daughter-in-law shouted together.

"Hey!" Mom was very happy and agreed, but she was a little puzzled, "It's not a holiday, and it's not a big deal. Why did you two come back together?"

Guan Jingwen said with a smile: "Isn't it Dad's birthday tomorrow, let's make an appointment to come back together to celebrate Dad's birthday!"

Mom quickly said: "Okay, okay, your dad must be so high that he won't be able to sleep tonight!"

"Nonsense, who can't sleep? Don't believe me, you can see if I can sleep tonight? Hmph!" Old Man Tang snorted coldly, turned and walked towards the house.

The mother quickly greeted her son, daughter-in-law and grandson: "Your father just likes to pretend, come in, let me hug my precious grandson!"

Wang Xiuqing handed the child to grandma, "Call grandma!"

"Grandma!" Grandson shouted loudly.

Grandma was so happy: "Hey, good, my good grandson is really sensible!"

After a few people entered the house, there was a sound of rummaging through things from the east room on the first floor. They walked to the door and saw that the old man was looking for snacks in the cabinet, and found out a bag of melon seeds, a bag of almonds, a bag of Pistachios, as well as snow dates and local hair cakes.

Tang Xiaochuan and the others looked at each other and smiled, and retreated silently to the living room.

Then the old man called his mother to go in, and soon his mother took out all the snacks with a smile.

Mom put the snacks on the coffee table and asked, "By the way, have you had lunch yet?"

Tang Xiaochuan said: "I have eaten at Han Min's house, so don't worry about it, mom!"

The family sat and chatted in the living room. Although the weather was hot, the house was transparent from north to south, and it was located on the air vent. Sitting in the living room was very cool and didn't feel hot.

Soon there was a bustling noise outside, and a group of villagers came to the door with chickens, ducks, tobacco and alcohol.

"Oh, you..." Old Tang was taken aback when he saw such a large group of villagers walking in.

The production team leader said with a smile: "Mr. Tang, I heard that tomorrow is your birthday. Each of our families brought a little something here. Please don't be too disgusted. I wish you good luck like the East China Sea and a long life like Nanshan!"

The villagers put down the things in their hands and said blessings one after another.

Old man Tang was a little at a loss, he rubbed his hands together and said, "It's costing everyone, it's just a casual student, I didn't expect everyone to know, come in and sit down!"

Tang Xiaochuan also reacted, and quickly said: "Uncles, it's hot outside, come in and sit down! Jingwen, Xiuqing, you two, go and pour tea!"

"Oh, good!" The two sisters-in-law who were called out by Tang Xiaochuan immediately moved into action, one went to wash the cups, and the other prepared tea.

When there are too many people, it will feel hot. Tang Xiaochuan went to lift a high-power fan in the stairwell and turn it on. Everyone felt very cool. In fact, there is a high-power central air conditioner installed in the house, but it is generally not suitable to close the door in rural areas. , but if you don't close the door, the air conditioner doesn't work.

Tang Xiaochuan called Brother Bing and asked him to ride a motorcycle to the street to buy two hundred catties of watermelon and split it up for the villagers to eat.

Brothers Tang Xiaochuan and Tang Hanmin chatted with everyone and asked the villagers about the harvest of farming and raising lobsters at home.

The production team leader sighed and said: "Hey, the production of lobsters this year is quite good, but the price is too low. At the beginning, you can charge more than 30 yuan a catty. This price was only charged for a few days, and then it fell off the cliff. It dropped, it dropped to twenty yuan at once, and then dropped again, until it dropped to seven or eight yuan a catty, and the lowest purchase price was only two or three yuan a catty!"

A middle-aged woman said: "There was too much rain in the first half of this year. It has been raining for more than a month. It has been raining just when the wheat is ripening, and so is the rapeseed. There is no yield, and there are too many shriveled shells, and the quality is too poor." It’s ugly, after the wheat in our place was collected, it was bought by those big shrimp farmers at a price of 50 cents a catty to feed the shrimps!”

Tang Xiaochuan asked: "Why is wheat only fifty cents a catty? Isn't this too cheap?"

"What else should I do? It's been raining for too long, most of them are moldy, and some of them were caught in the rain when they were in the sun, and they were piled together for a few days, and when they opened the oilcloth, they could smell the smell of distiller's grains. Already!"

Another twenty-eight or nine-year-old woman holding a child said, "I see that the wheat in many fields has not been harvested until now. I guess the owners of those fields don't want to harvest it either!"

Tang Xiaochuan wondered, "Why?"

"We use harvesters here for harvesting. One hundred yuan per mu. With the yield and quality of wheat in those fields, plus this year's price, even if it is collected and sold, it may not even be enough to pay for the harvesters. You will lose less if you don’t reap, and you will lose more if you reap, it’s better to let it rot in the ground!”

The villagers started to talk about it, and most of them said that this year's harvest is not good. Fortunately, the main food here is not mainly wheat, and only a small part of dry land. Most of them are paddy fields, mainly rice. , but no matter what the year is, the farmers will never go hungry anyway. Even if there is no harvest, each farmer will have some food reserves to last until next year.

As everyone chatted, more and more villagers came over with gifts.

The villagers who came first saw that there were more and more people, so they got up and said goodbye.

Old man Tang hurriedly said: "Come here for dinner tonight, you must come!"

The villagers looked at it, how could there be so many people for dinner? They all declined.

Old man Tang hurriedly said again: "Then come tomorrow, and you must come here for lunch at noon tomorrow, so it's a deal, if you don't come, take your things back!"

The villagers who wanted to leave had no choice but to agree to come over for lunch at noon tomorrow, and old man Tang let them go.

The villagers came one by one and left one by one, and they didn't all finish until after five o'clock in the afternoon, but even if not all the people in the whole village came, it is estimated that 80% of them were at home.

Tang Xiaochuan looked at the backs of the villagers leaving, turned his head to look at the chickens, ducks, cigarettes and alcohol piled up on the floor at home, and had no choice but to say: "At first, I only wanted to have two meals for my family to celebrate my father's birthday. Tomorrow is not a big deal, and while there is still time, I have to hire a cook, buy ingredients, groceries, drinks and cigarettes!"

Tang Hanmin looked at the pile of cigarettes and drinks on the ground and said: "These should be enough for cigarettes. If you don't use them, it's a waste to put them here. As for drinks, they may not be enough. It's better to go to the winery to get a hundred catties." Grain wine, the time is too short, it’s not easy to get good wine, anyway, it’s not a formal birthday, so it’s okay to have some casually!”

"Okay, let's make it so! Dad, can your numbness still be turned off?" Tang Xiaochuan asked.

Old man Tang said: "It can be turned on, it was fully charged last night!"

Anesthesia is an electric tricycle. In rural areas, this kind of electric anesthesia is everywhere, almost every household has it. It is very good to take a little fertilizer to the fields or go to the street to buy some things. It is very practical.

Tang Xiaochuan greeted Zhan Ge together, and he drove Zhan Ge on the road with his electric car numb. The villagers on the road waved and greeted him when they saw him. Some village officials joked when they saw him: "Boss Tang, when will you come back?" Yes? You, a billionaire, actually drove Numb to the streets, don’t you think it’s a drop in value?”

Tang Xiaochuan said with a smile: "It's not that I haven't opened Numb before, what's the price? Do you want to take a ride? Not everyone has the opportunity to sit on Numb opened by billionaires!"

"Forget it, I have to go to a poor family's house. I heard that your old man is celebrating his birthday tomorrow? Is this going to go shopping?"

Tang Xiaochuan said: "It's just an ordinary birthday. I don't know how it was known by everyone in the village. I went to hundreds of people in the afternoon, and everyone came to the door with something. It can't be justified without a banquet! Yes! Yes, you have Chef Zhu’s phone number, call him for me, and ask him to bring his team and manpower to my house to open the case early tomorrow morning, don’t go late, I won’t have dinner at noon tomorrow You need to find him trouble! In addition, I am going to the street now, you ask him to quickly compile a banquet menu according to the scale of 100 tables, call me immediately if you need to buy any ingredients, and I will go to the street and ask someone to deliver it tomorrow morning go home!"

"Okay, I'll go to his house and tell him now!"

Tang Xiaochuan drove Brother Zhan to the town with his electric anesthesia. As soon as he arrived in the town, he received a call from Chef Zhu. He reported the names and quantities of a bunch of ingredients on the phone.

Tang Xiaochuan wrote down one by one, and walked around the vegetable market and grocery store, and explained the required ingredients, grocery seasonings and quantities to the vendors one by one, and asked them to deliver them to their homes before 5:30 tomorrow morning. For a rich man like Xiaochuan, the owners of the meat stalls, vegetable stalls, and grocery store owners certainly did not dare to be negligent and agreed repeatedly.

Tang Xiaochuan went to the winery to make 50 catties of puree grain wine. The old men in the countryside like to drink this kind of pure grain wine. Although it burns their throats, it is strong enough!

According to the scale of 100 tables, there are two meals at noon and evening, and there must be something to pass the time in the morning and evening. Mahjong has become a necessary entertainment tool. There are shops in the town that specialize in renting out mahjong tables. For five days, only renting for one day is 50 yuan. Tang Xiaochuan drove numbly to find a mahjong table rental shop and rented ten mahjong tables.

In the early morning of the next day, ingredients, seasonings and groceries were delivered one after another. The cooks also rushed to Chef Zhu who drove a motorized tricycle to bring the pots, stoves, coal stoves and tableware, and everyone started to work.

The villagers saw that the Tang family had indeed invited all the cooks. It seemed that they were going to have a big banquet, and many people came one after another. After the mahjong table was delivered, everyone started playing mahjong.

Hundreds of people came before nine o'clock. Tang Xiaochuan could only call someone to set up a shed, and rented a few water conditioners to blow cold air. The villagers could sit in the shed and chat.

There were too many people, the cooks had to speed up and start the banquet in advance. The first batch of banquets started at ten o'clock, each batch of ten tables, a total of five batches were opened.

There were fifty tables again in the evening, and a simple ceremony was held before the banquet. The two brothers and two daughters-in-law of the Tang family all toasted the old man and wished the old man a happy birthday.

According to the rules here, longevity noodles are eaten for birthdays, and the two daughters-in-law are required to make a bowl of longevity noodles for their father-in-law. It's ten fingers that don't touch the spring water, but finally made a bowl of noodles under the guidance of the mother-in-law, and the two daughters-in-law brought the longevity noodles they made to the father-in-law together.

Old man Tang was so happy that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear. The villagers booed and asked old man Tang to give red envelopes to his wives. Who knew that old man Tang had already prepared two thick red envelopes and gave one to each of the two daughters-in-law.
