Rebirth: I Want to Collect Rent

When Zhang Fei heard that Hao Liang had no intention of letting Hao Jing be the general manager of the mobile phone factory, he immediately regretted it.

He said to Hao Liang with some annoyance, "He just told me that he would go to your factory to be the director after the new year. I thought you were going to let him be the boss of the mobile phone factory you plan to build tomorrow. I didn't expect that he actually lied to me.

."

"It's okay, you have set off the fireworks."

"Put it away. I won't tell you anymore. I'll fly to Hao Jing to get the money back." Zhang Fei said and ran out.

Hao Liang looked at Zhang Fei who was hurried out and shouted, "Money, what money?"

"After he and I left your house, he borrowed a thousand yuan from me and said he would pay me back 1,200 yuan after his salary was paid. So I lent him the money." Zhang Fei turned back to Hao Liang and replied.

Hao Liang smiled and said to Zhang Fei who stopped. "Then don't think about it. You can't get the money back."

"How is it possible? It's absolutely impossible to get money from me." Zhang Fei said and hurried out again to find Hao Jing to get the money back.

When they got outside, Zhang Fei looked at the children in the village who were waiting for her to play together and asked, "Why did you follow me here? Do you know where Hao Jing went?"

"I know." A child shouted with his hands raised.

"Where are you going? Take me to find him." Zhang Fei said quickly.

"When I just came out, I saw Hao Jing going to Uncle Ergou's house at the entrance of the village to gamble. I will take you there." The child volunteered.

After Zhang Fei knew that Hao Jing was there, he rushed over with a group of children in the village shouting. Almost everyone in the village knew that Hao Jing had defrauded Zhang Fei of his money.

Zhang Fei rushed to Uncle Ergou's house at the entrance of the village and found Hao Jing gambling at his card table.

Zhang Fei walked up to Hao Jing and said unceremoniously to Hao Jing, regardless of the rule at the card table that no begging for money was allowed.

"Hao Jing, give me back the money. You actually dared to lie to me and said you were going to be the general manager of Hao Liang's new factory. That's not the case at all. Please pay me back the money quickly."

"I'll pay you back later. Instead of just a thousand dollars, I'll give you tens of thousands of dollars without blinking an eye, and I can cheat you out of a thousand dollars." Hao Jing replied at the card table without looking back.

.

"No one in the village knows about your bad deeds. Even the kids at the door know that your father died just to pay off your gambling debt. Please pay me back the money quickly." Zhang Fei glared at Hao Jing and said again.

When Hao Jing first came in to gamble, the gamblers asked Hao Jing where he got the money, and Hao Jing said he got it from home.

Now Zhang Fei came to collect debts, and the others said to Hao Jing.

"Hao Jing, you can go to the village and return the money to Zhang Fei. If the village chief and secretary find out that you borrowed the money from this foreign girl and still don't pay it back, they won't beat you to death."

When he said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. As soon as the man who was gambling with him finished his words, the village chief and secretary, who came together to persuade the villagers to play smaller and not play too big, were at the door and happened to hear what he said.

Without saying a word, the secretary picked up a wooden stick and hit Hao Jing, talking while beating him back.

"Well, Hao Jing, you lost your father's life by gambling, and now you are gambling, and you actually borrowed money from Zhang Fei. You have disgraced our village and sent it abroad."

When other people saw the secretary beating someone, they didn't dare to step forward, let alone stop him. This secretary was not only a secretary, but also an elder in the village.

Almost everyone in the village has the surname Hao, and they are related to each other. Who dares to stop them?

Hao Jing was beaten twice. She put away the money on the card table and was about to run away, but was stopped by the village chief and said to Hao Jing.

"You paid back Zhang Fei's money and insulted the people of our village. Our village was just praised by the town for having foreigners settle here. You do this to me today."

Hao Jing could only take out the money, count a thousand yuan and return it to Zhang Fei.

After Zhang Fei got the money, he said thank you to the village chief secretary and left with the children in the village, continuing to be her child king.

After Zhang Fei left, the secretary held a stick and said to the gamblers.

"Let me tell you, from today on, our village can no longer play cards and gamble. If anyone dares to gamble again, without the police station coming to arrest them, I will break your legs. Especially you, Ergou. Do you understand?"

"Yes, our village can no longer gamble. The hard-earned money earned throughout the year will be all spent in the next year. Our village was awarded an advanced village this year thanks to Zhang Fei. Next year, this advanced village will be gone. I want you to look good.

"The village chief also said.

As soon as the village chief finished speaking, the secretary pointed a stick at the owner of the house, Ergou, and warned him.

"Er Gou, if you ask people from other villages to come to your house to gamble again, and I find out, I will break your legs and send you to the police station for a few days."

"Okay, no more gambling, it's okay if we play mahjong or something, one for two." Ergou quickly said with a playful smile.

"One or two dollars is fine. Look at that foreigner Zhang Fei. He is also playing with the children in the village. You don't want to learn more. Don't play mahjong too late. Let's go."

The secretary said and left with the village chief and several village cadres. They continued to inspect the village, which is what they have to do every year.

When Hao Jing saw the village chief secretary leaving, he took out the money he had just won, sat down at the card table and said, "Come on, I still have two thousand yuan."

"Hao Jing, you are so fucking shameless. You went to borrow money with a foreign girl and you disgraced the men in our village. I won't play with you anymore. I'm going back."

"I'm leaving too. I heard that Zhang Fei, a foreign woman, wants to find a Chinese husband." Another card player also said.

"Let's go to the village together." After hearing that Zhang Fei wanted to find a Chinese husband, the young people in the village couldn't sit still. They all went to find Zhang Fei who was playing with the children in the village.

"You don't want to play cards anymore, it's still early. Uncle Ergou, call the scoundrels from the next village and ask them to come over and play a few games." Hao Jing watched the people leave and said to Ergou.

"Hao Jing, I've seen a lot of shameless gamblers. As shameless as you are, this is the first time I've been gambling for so many years. You actually borrowed money from a foreign girl. Forget it, you don't want to come here in the future.

Now. I won’t form any more card games here.”

"Uncle Ergou, you said you don't want to play cards anymore. It's been so many years and you don't play anymore." Hao Jing said with some disbelief.

"No more grouping, no more gambling, I'm going to find a wife to live with." With that, he kicked Hao Jing out.

There were no card games in the village anymore, and Hao Jing did not stay in the village anymore. He went to the next village to continue gambling.

Hao Liang chatted with Meng Mengdi on the phone for a while, and then called his senior brothers and sisters to say hello to the New Year. It was already past ten o'clock.

This year, Hao Liang didn't wait until twelve o'clock to set off the firecrackers and close the door to go to bed. After making the phone call, he set off the firecrackers and went back to his room to sleep.

The next morning, Hao Liang woke up early. It was customary to go to his father's grave on the first day of the first lunar month to pay homage.

But Hao Liang still chose not to go. Instead, he got in the car and went directly to Professor Jiao's home in the provincial capital. As the youngest disciple, he had to entertain some senior brothers and sisters just like last year.

Just like last year, Hao Liang was the first to arrive at Professor Jiao's house. He was busy until about three o'clock in the afternoon. After seeing off all the senior brothers and sisters, Hao Liang went home.

This year, Professor Jiao's daughter still hasn't come back. She stayed in the United States to spend the unknown Spring Festival with her husband and children.

In a blink of an eye, the Spring Festival has passed. On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Hao Liang returned to the room he had left after participating in the game played by Senior Sister Kou Ni.

While chatting with Meng Mengdi, who had come to stay in the room with him, Zhong Yi called.

"Liangzi, where are you now? Come to my house." Hao Liang answered the phone and heard Zhong Yi say.

"I'm still in the provincial capital now. Is there anything urgent for you?"

"It's nothing urgent. Someone just called me and asked me if I could buy the houses in the urban village. Each building is worth one million."

When Hao Liang heard what Zhong Yi said, he also guessed that the village in the city was going to be demolished. Some people had received the news in advance and started to buy houses. He asked Zhong Yi.

"Then did you agree? You won't buy the house, right?"

"I have the intention to sell it and use the money to open a few more branches, but Tiantian won't let me sell it."

"Just don't sell it. Why did we buy the house? You forgot." Hao Liang reminded.

Zhong Yi heard Hao Liang's reminder and asked quickly. "You said this place is going to be demolished. When will it be demolished? Do you have any news?"

"Since someone started to buy houses in urban villages, it must be fast. It will only happen in the past few months." Hao Liang thought for a while and said.
