The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 174 There Are Surprisingly Big Niu Surrounding You
About 20 minutes later, Cao Shujie led Mengmeng, and Cao Shulun came out of the house together.

Mengmeng was wrapped like a zongzi, with only a pair of eyes exposed. She shook off Cao Shujie's hand and ran around behind her father.

"Look, Dad." Mengmeng bowed forward halfway, her hands slanted to both sides to stab the sky, like the wings of an airplane, stomping on the ground to glide forward.

After running a few meters away, she looked back at her father and found that Cao Shujie wasn't looking at her. Mengmeng was unhappy and stood there and shouted, "Look, Dad."

Cao Shujie and Cao Shulun who were behind couldn't help laughing when they saw this scene.

Cao Shulun said: "My son is like this sometimes. I really don't know what they think."

"Who knows, maybe they wanted to be pilots when they were young." Cao Shujie said.

He shouted to the daughter who ran out in front: "Mengmeng, slow down, don't fall."

"Father, it's all right, I'm fine." Mengmeng said word by word.

After speaking, Mengmeng bent down again, spreading her hands diagonally like a fighter jet, as if giving her a burst of strength could fly.

There were a few people walking north together from the south, a little far away, Cao Shujie didn't see who it was.

When the other party got closer, someone suddenly shouted: "Brother Jie, come out for a stroll."

"Oh, it's Shuming, are you here to hang out?" Cao Shujie finally saw the other person clearly. He is Cao Jianhua's son. He is still in college and only half a year away from graduation.

"Well, I went out for a walk, and I was thinking of paying New Year's greetings to my Grandpa Tiger." Cao Shuming said.

At this moment, Cao Shuming still remembers what his father and mother said.

When you see Cao Shujie, you must be polite. When you come out to pay New Year's greetings at night, you must go to the two-story building at the north end of Caojiazhuang to pay Cao Zhenghu a New Year's greeting.

Cao Shuming is not ignorant of what happened at home.

He knew that his father's pig raising was not going well, and he consulted Cao Shujie many times. In addition, the scene of Cao Shujie attacking dog thieves on the Yellow River dam was also spread in the village. Cao Shuming felt that Cao Shujie was simply his idol. .

In addition, Cao Shujie himself is very powerful. He invested millions of dollars in contracting mountainous land to grow fruit, and engaged in breeding, which made him flourish. He spent more than 30 yuan to build a two-story villa in the countryside.

Who doesn't envy Caojiazhuang?
His courage is what Cao Shuming and his young fellows admire most.

"You are going to my house, go there, my grandpa is at home." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

"Well, Brother Jie, you go shopping first, and when you are free, I will treat you to dinner." Cao Shuming said.

Two groups of people passed by, and Cao Shuming and several others continued to walk north.

Cao Shujie greeted his daughter Mengmeng, and continued to walk south with Cao Shulun, planning to find Cao Zhen, Cao Shuyang, and Cao Fei first, and go together to pay New Year greetings to the elders of the Cao family.

More and more people are coming out at this time.

After meeting on the way, everyone will stop and say a few words with a smile, and send a few New Year's wishes.

Many of them would shake hands with Cao Shujie when they saw him, and wanted to hear him tell the story of what happened that day.

There were also people playing with Mengmeng, the little guy didn't cry at this time, and his behavior was very lovable.

After sending another group of people away, Cao Shulun looked at Cao Shujie and said, "Shujie, do you have any idea of ​​becoming the village chief?"

"Or you can find someone to introduce you to the party. It's not a big problem for you." Cao Shulun gave him an idea: "When the time comes, when Mr. Jiangang retires, you can go up directly. With your current prestige, it is a good idea to win this secretary." Safe thing."

"When the time comes, you can manage Caojiazhuang well. Even if we brothers can't get along outside, we will have a place to breathe when we come back."

Hearing what Cao Shulun said, Cao Shujie rolled his eyes at him, wanting to ask him, "Is there water in my head?"

"With my undisciplined personality, I can't do that kind of work at all. You should stop thinking about such beautiful things and work hard outside." Cao Shujie said seriously.

This is not the first time he has heard such words, regardless of whether the person who said these words is intentional or unintentional, but he is indeed not interested in the village chief or the village party secretary.

In his opinion, it is better to spend more time with his wife, children, parents, and grandfather if he has that free time.

Based on what he knew about Cao Shujie, Cao Shulun knew that Cao Shujie was not joking, so he secretly thought it was a pity.

Mengmeng didn't think it was a pity, she ran to the front in one breath, then stood there and yelled away.

They went to the homes of Cao Zhen, Cao Shuyang, and Cao Fei. They formed a team of six people and went south from the middle. They went door to door to visit the few old people left in the Cao family.

When I meet a few uncles on the road, they will stand and chat for a while, give cigarettes to the elders, and talk about work.

At this time, Cao Shujie discovered that his daughter Mengmeng was the most popular.

Anyone who saw it wanted to give her a handful of candies and peanuts. Her pockets were already full. Along the way, she also got 21 yuan in New Year's money, making Mengmeng happy and smiling all the time.

As they were walking, they came to Cao Zhenghe's house at the south end of Caojiazhuang. As soon as they entered the door, they heard the dog's bark.

Cao Zhenghe is almost 80 years old this year, about the same age as Cao Shujie's grandfather Cao Zhenghu.

After Cao Zhenghu came back from his eldest son's house, he asked his younger grandson Cao Shujie to take him to see Cao Zhenghe.

Seeing Cao Shujie, Cao Zhenghe waved to him happily: "Shujie, come and sit down."

"Where's your grandfather?" Cao Zhenghe asked him.

"Grandpa, my grandpa is at home, wait for you to come to my house tomorrow." Cao Shujie invited him.

And let Mengmeng come over and call 'Grandpa'.

"Hey, Mengmeng is so good!" Cao Zhenghe said with a smile.

He then nodded and said, "I'll ask your elder brother Xu to send me there tomorrow. I have to have a drink with your grandpa during the Chinese New Year."

"Grandpa, even if it's not the new year, as long as you want to drink, I will arrange it at any time." Cao Shujie opened his mouth as if he had wiped honey.

Cao Zhen, Cao Fei, and Cao Shulun next to him accused Cao Shujie of being shameless in their hearts.

Cao Shuyang suddenly asked, "Grandpa, is Brother Xu back?"

"I'm back. I just took a plane from Shencheng to our provincial capital last night, and I came back by car this morning." Cao Zhenghe said.

Look, people come back by plane. In the countryside, there are very few people who have taken a plane, and they are forced to go up immediately.

Cao Shuyang said: "Then there is no way, who will make Brother Xu earn more!"

"Hey, he earns a lot and spends a lot, and I don't see him saving any money." Even though Cao Zhenghe said that, the pride on his face couldn't be concealed.

In the whole Caojiazhuang before, the one who earned the most in the younger generation was his grandson Cao Shuxu.

But now we have to add Cao Shujie.

He said: "Shujie, your elder brother Xu said he wanted to have a drink with you today, why don't you all leave and have another drink at my place tonight."

As soon as Cao Zhenghe finished speaking, Cao Shujie and the others waved their hands, then stood up and prepared to go out: "Grandpa, there are still a few houses that haven't been transferred. It's just this time of the year. Let's take advantage of the Chinese New Year to go for a walk. It's not busy another day. Let's go together." Come and see you."

Seeing that they were about to leave, Cao Zhenghe also stood up: "Oh, I just sat down and didn't even drink a bowl of tea. Why are you so anxious?"

"Grandpa, the water is almost gone. You sit down first, and we will go out for a walk." Cao Zhen said.

Cao Zhenghe wanted to say something more, Mengmeng ran out first, Cao Shuyang, Cao Shulun and the others also walked out, and several people walked out politely.

Before he walked out of the gate, he suddenly saw a young man wearing a black down jacket, jeans, and sneakers coming in from outside. Judging from this outfit, he looked very foreign.

He is about the same size as Cao Shuyang, both tall and thin.

In comparison, he is taller than Cao Shuyang.

Seeing Cao Shuyang, Cao Zhen, and Cao Shujie, the visitor was taken aback for a moment, and shouted happily: "Isn't this Shuyang, Shujie, Zhenzhen?"

"And you two are Shulun and Cao Fei. I went to your house just now. Uncle said that you all came out for a stroll." The visitor said happily when he saw them.

"Hey, whose child was that just now?"

"Brother Xu, mine." Cao Shujie hurried out and called Mengmeng back.

Cao Zhenghe saw him and called him, "Xuxu, you're back so soon?"

"Grandpa, the rest of us have been planning to come back to watch the Spring Festival Gala as soon as possible. We are running fast." Cao Shuxu didn't feel embarrassed at all.

He was outside all the year round, and when he came back, he didn't have much to talk to the elders at home, and the elders in a few households would just sit and leave.

Cao Zhen and the others all shouted 'Brother Xu'.

In terms of age, Cao Shuxu is already 33, older than several of them.

From Cao Shuxu, one can see the obvious self-confidence and arrogance. This is the added value brought by his working in IT in a large factory, seeing a lot of things, knowing a lot of information, and having a high income.

"Are you going to leave? Come in and sit down for a while." Cao Shuxu also understood, and he refused to let them go.

"I just came back, let's talk for a while."

"Brother Xu, we still have to visit the rest of the stores." Cao Shuyang said with a smile.

But Cao Shuxu didn't like this, he said: "Our family, how can I not know, it's the same if you go around tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Cao Shuxu took Cao Shuyang and Cao Zhen's arms and walked into the house, and said to Cao Shujie and the others: "Brothers, come in quickly, don't let me pull you again."

Several people looked at each other, lost their minds, and then returned to the house.

"That's right." Cao Shuxu said: "I also brought back a case of good wine, let's drink some at night."

"Brother Xu, I really can't drink tonight. We have to go back to eat the New Year's Eve dinner. Let's get together tomorrow." Cao Shujie said.

"Yes, Brother Xu, if you are free, let's have a drink together tomorrow." Cao Shulun also said.

Seeing what they all said, Cao Shuxu didn't ask for it anymore.

Several people were drinking tea and chatting with melon seeds, and Cao Shuxu also chatted about his current job.

What Cao Shujie didn't expect was that this unremarkable elder brother went to work in Tencent without saying a word.

Obviously, Cao Shuyang and the others didn't know about this, so Cao Fei asked in surprise, "Brother Xu, you mean you're on QQ?"

"We are all under the same group, but we are responsible for different things. I am mainly in charge of QQ mailboxes." Cao Shuxu said with a smile.

Obviously, Cao Shuyang, Cao Shulun, and Cao Fei couldn't understand this.

Even Cao Zhen knew only a little about it.

Mengmeng listens to the scriptures, she just eats sweets.

On the other hand, Cao Shujie frowned, as if thinking about something.

Seeing him like this, Cao Shuxu asked him, "Shujie, what's wrong?"

"Brother Xu, it's okay. I just thought of a name, but I can't remember it clearly." Cao Shujie said.

"What name?" Cao Shuxu was curious.

Then I heard Cao Shujie say: "Zhang Xiaolong, is the boss of your QQ mailbox?"

"That's right, Shujie, how did you know our boss?" Cao Shuxu was curious.

There are quite a few people in the industry who know Zhang Xiaolong, but Cao Shuxu did not expect that someone in Caojiazhuang, thousands of miles away, would know the name of their boss.

This made him feel a little weird.

Cao Shujie shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, I also heard about it when I was working in the capital."

"If you don't tell me, I almost forgot. You worked in Beijing for a few years before." Cao Shuxu smiled, and then he said: "But our boss Zhang has not been focusing on the mailbox for the past two years. He is in charge of it." Wechat."

"WeChat?" This word has touched the knowledge blind spot of several people.

Cao Fei, Cao Zhen, Cao Shulun, and Cao Shuyang all looked at Cao Shuxu curiously, waiting for him to clarify.

But what made Cao Shuxu very curious was that Cao Shujie didn't seem to be surprised by 'WeChat', and he always had an expression of not caring much on his face.

"Shujie, do you know WeChat?" Cao Shuxu asked subconsciously.

Then I saw Cao Shujie nodding: "I know a little about this, but I don't know the details. If I remember correctly, it should have just been launched last year, right?"

Cao Shuxu gave him a thumbs up and praised him: "Shujie, you know a lot."

WeChat is not very popular now, and not many people know about it. One year has passed, and it is backed by the huge database of QQ, and it has only generated less than 5000 million cumulative downloads, and many of these data have been downloaded and then deleted. , double-count users who were deleted and then downloaded.

Fewer people actually use it for daily communication.

Cao Shuxu is an insider. His former boss was a big guy like Zhang Xiaolong, and he knows more about WeChat.

"It was launched early last year, but the market effect is not very good," he said.

"Take your time, you rely on QQ, and there is such a large QQ user base, it's all water in a pool. If you find a way to move it, I don't think it's a big problem." Cao Shujie said so.

After Cao Shuxu heard what he said, he thought about his statement, and suddenly felt that it was very vivid.

So much so that he was even more curious about Cao Shujie's previous experience, so he asked him: "Shujie, what did you do in Beijing before? Is it also the Internet? It has something to do with social networking?"

"No, I'm just doing agricultural planting and research. If I do the Internet, will I come back? I've gone to Shencheng to join Brother Xu a long time ago." Cao Shujie said.

Hearing what he said, Cao Shuxu pointed at him and laughed loudly: "Shujie, there is really no one with your mouth that can bring the dead back to life."

But Cao Shuyang and the others became more and more confused the more they listened, and then they simply took out their mobile phones to check.

Cao Shuxu was quite curious about what Cao Shujie was thinking, and actually contracted land in his hometown to plant orchards and engage in breeding.

For a research talent like him who has crossed from one big industry to another big industry, the mere courage and determination are not possessed by ordinary people.

"Brother Xu, to tell you the truth, I just can't hang out anymore, so I can only go back to my hometown to make a living." Cao Shujie said so.

But no one believed it, including Cao Zhen and the others.

Cao Shuyang also despised him: "Shujie, there are no outsiders, so you don't need to make such an excuse."

"I'm going to make an excuse, but you don't believe me when I tell the truth." Cao Shujie was also helpless.

Sometimes what he said was the truth, but others thought it was nonsense after hearing it.

After a pause, he went on to say: "You don't know, when I was working in the capital, I was mainly engaged in research. At that time, when I encountered a research topic or encountered a problem, I did it for nothing. I used to For more than a month, I only slept for more than 3 hours a day, and sometimes I lay on the floor in the company, and after a short sleep, I got up and continued to work, can you imagine that feeling?"

Several people couldn't imagine it, and it was the first time they heard Cao Shujie talk about this unknown story.

But after Cao Shuxu heard what he said, he couldn't help expressing emotion: "I understand, so that's the case, so Brother Shujie, your situation before is similar to mine now!"

"Oh, I forgot that you IT guys are all hard-working people. Comparing my little experience with yours, I am nothing compared to yours." Cao Shujie said.

Under Cao Zhen's suspicious eyes, Cao Shujie said again: "Brother Xu, I just met an IT guy in the capital, and that guy is often busy until two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, harder than me."

"I couldn't stand that feeling, and ran back thinking about living a few more years." Cao Shujie told the truth for the first time.

But Cao Zhen and the others didn't have that kind of experience, and they were dubious about what Cao Shujie said.

But Cao Shuxu immediately believed what Cao Shujie said. Hearing that Cao Shujie came back for this reason, Cao Shuxu sighed, and said, "Shujie, I am in the same situation as you now."

"After people pass 30, thinking becomes slower. Especially in the past two years, I feel that my energy is not as good as before. I can't stay up late and I can't fight those young people who just joined the company. I am also thinking about what to do next. What?" Cao Shuxu shook his head and said.

It was the first time Cao Zhenghe heard his grandson talk about these things, and he was surprised: "Shuxu, you don't want to do it in Shencheng anymore?"

Cao Shuxu opened his mouth, and suddenly found that he couldn't express his thoughts accurately to his grandfather, so he could only say, "Grandpa, I want to find a better and easier job next step."

"Let me just say, Xu Xu, you are the most capable." Cao Zhenghe smiled happily again, inadvertently showing his missing teeth.

But Cao Zhen and Cao Shuyang next to him understood that the idol Cao Shuxu, who used to earn hundreds of thousands a year, couldn't hold on anymore and wanted to retire from his current position.

They really couldn't imagine what kind of situation Cao Xu was facing, but Cao Shujie seemed to have a deeper understanding.

Only then did they realize that they didn't know much about Cao Shujie's situation in the capital during those few years.

"Shujie, how about you come back and contract to plant orchards in the mountains?" Cao Shuxu asked with great interest.

"And that breeding, what do you think of the future?"

This question stopped Cao Shujie from asking, and he said, "Brother Xu, to be honest, whether it's planting orchards or farming, these two jobs are not easy to do."

"Not to mention anything else, for the two lands I'm contracting now, for 30 years, the contract fee alone is 100 million yuan, and the basic investment I will invest in later is not less than 100 million yuan, and there are other investments, which are even higher when calculated comprehensively. " Cao Shujie said so.

"Good guy, Shujie, you have made a lot of money in the capital." Cao Shuxu was surprised.

But Cao Shujie followed up and said: "Brother Xu, you are overthinking. I have a bank loan of more than 300 million now, and I am still worried about how I will pay it back in three years."

"..." Cao Shuxu didn't even want to answer.

Cao Shuyang and the others didn't even want to answer.

When they think of more than 300 million loans, this figure can make them breathless.

Cao Shuxu said: "I have a friend from Shencheng who wants to take me into the data line business. The investment is not low, and I have been hesitating."

"Data cable?" Cao Shujie shook his head. This is a very unfamiliar field for him, and he doesn't intend to act as an expert, so as not to lead others astray.

Cao Shuyang and the others didn't understand even more.

"Hey, it's getting harder and harder to do now." Cao Shuxu said.

With this exchange and communication, the image of Cao Shuxu in the minds of Cao Zhen and the others suddenly disappeared.

It also let them know that Cao Shuxu, whom they admired so much, turned out to be an ordinary person, but he earned a little more money.

Chatting and chatting, they started more and more topics, no longer limited to IT, or planting orchards, farming and other businesses, including Cao Shuyang, Cao Shulun, Cao Fei, Cao Zhen and others also joined in.

Cao Shuxu also mentioned something, he said: "I found a very interesting thing some time ago, but that thing is a bit evil, and I didn't understand it after half a month of research."

Even the things that Cao Shuxu was very interested in directly aroused the curiosity of Cao Shulun and Cao Shuyang, and they all wanted to know the answer.

Then I heard Cao Shuxu say: "Bitcoin, have you heard of it?"

When he thought about it, Bitcoin was a more obscure thing, and some of them probably didn't know about it.

But who knew Cao Zhen immediately said this time: "I've read the news about this thing, but I don't understand what it does?"

Everyone else shook their heads. They really didn't bother to understand Zai, which was different from what he thought.

Cao Shuxu was also very surprised. He didn't expect that some of these brothers had heard of Bitcoin.
