Living like a salted fish in the end times

Chapter 435 Death of Zhang Chongxin
"It should be a mutual joy. After all, Kuniki is also the son-in-law of the Mitsui family."

Zhang Hao waved his hand.

"We are all happy for Meihui to find such a wonderful husband."

Hirakawa Tatsuo smiled and responded.

After some polite remarks, Kunihiro Mitsui tried to ask about Sugon Company.

It turns out that the Japan-Korea Chamber of Commerce Alliance not only bought 200 billion worth of shares from Zhang Guoji, but also acquired more than 500 billion shares through other channels. This time it can be said that it suffered heavy losses.

Of course, when Tatsuo Hirakawa came this time, he had absolutely no intention of raising an army to hold him accountable.

Although their family also acquired a lot of shares in Shuguang Company, they exchanged it for their own large villa. They were all a family, so it was not a loss.

The only regret is that the plan of "family heir" has completely come to nothing.

Zhang Hao advised tactfully: "My father-in-law, the normal temperature superconducting incident is indeed too coincidental. It cannot be said to be a deliberate attempt to deceive investors. I hope you can explain it to everyone on my behalf to avoid misunderstandings."

"Lao Zhang, I already understand what you mean. I will definitely tell you what you said when I go back."

Although Mitsui Kunihiro was a little helpless, he could only choose to accept it. After all, people had to bow their heads under the roof.

Zhang Hao saw that the other party was very sensible, so he comforted casually: "The Federation attaches great importance to Shuguang Company. There is no doubt that it is not a bad thing for you to hold shares in this company. Many times, we can't just Look at the economic benefits.”

"I see, thanks for reminding me."

Mitsui Kunihiro immediately stood up and bowed.

Immediately afterwards, Tatsuo Hirakawa took the initiative to inquire about the development of Southeast Asia. Zhang Hao had just returned and didn't know much, so he just gave a brief introduction.

Hirakawa Tatsuo nodded slightly, and then said his plan: "Zhang Sang, our Japan-Korea Chamber of Commerce Alliance plans to buy Kalimantan Island. In your opinion, is it possible?"

It is obvious that the Japan-South Korea alliance wants to learn from the big consortiums in the United States and plans to start a new business.

"Borneo?" Zhang Hao asked in surprise.

Compared with the official name of Kalimantan, the ancient name of Borneo is obviously more familiar to the local people.

"That's right." Tatsuo Hirakawa nodded seriously.

Zhang Hao waved his hand on the spot: "The central government has no plan to sell Borneo. I believe you, senior, have also heard that the group of people in the United States are seeking the island of New Guinea.

In fact, at the beginning, their target was Borneo, but they were rejected by Dean Fan.

The reason is actually not difficult to guess. Borneo is the center of the entire Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand. Its strategic location is very important, and it is absolutely impossible to sell it to private individuals. "

"What a pity." Tatsuo Hirakawa sighed, and then changed the topic: "What about Sulawesi?"

Originally, he didn't have much hope.

After all, Kalimantan is too big and there are so many people on the island that they may not be able to digest it.

"This...I'm not sure, but I can help you ask."

Zhang Hao said cautiously.

Fortunately, the inspection team visited Sulawesi some time ago, otherwise he really would not know the specific location of Sulawesi and the general situation there.

"Then please." Hirakawa Tatsuo stood up and bowed solemnly.

Zhang Hao quickly supported the other party: "It's nothing but a little effort. Senior Pingchuan doesn't have to do this."

"Zhang Sang, do you think we have a good chance of taking over Sulawesi?"

Hirakawa Tatsuo followed and asked.

"It's hard to say, I can only say it's possible."

Zhang Hao thought for a while and replied.

Tatsuo Hirakawa couldn't help expressing emotion: "It's good to have hope. This is the last way out for our Japan-Korea Chamber of Commerce Alliance. I also ask Zhang Sang to help out more."

"Senior Pingchuan..." Zhang Hao hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to get straight to the point: "It's not that I don't want to help you, but I'm afraid that it will be a disservice."

"how do I say this?"

Hirakawa Tatsuo asked quickly.

"Well, Senior Pingchuan, I believe you all know how I came to be the consul. To be honest, what Fan Zhenxiang said is more effective than me.

Once I intervene in this matter, Fan Zhenxiang will think that the Japan-Korea Chamber of Commerce Alliance is my supporter, and will suppress you without limit. "

Zhang Hao explained patiently.

The reason why he said these words is also to throw the blame for the subsequent suppression behavior, so as not to add an enemy to himself, which is very unfavorable politically.

Hirakawa Tatsuo sighed deeply, comforted the other person a few words in turn, and then directly ignored the topic to avoid further embarrassment.

……

An hour later, the barbecue party officially started.

The party location was arranged in the courtyard.

The outdoor temperature at this time was about ten degrees Celsius, which was a bit cold, but still acceptable.

After the party started, Zhang Hao, as the host, personally grilled four large lamb chops, which was the undisputed main dish at this party.

An hour later, everyone had almost finished eating, and the party finally came to an end.

Zhang Hao stepped forward to look at the lamb chops, and then announced loudly: "The lamb chops are ready to eat!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a large group of children immediately gathered around. The little ones had all tasted grilled lamb chops and were already salivating over this delicacy.

Guoguo came to her father holding a small bowl.

The little girl is young and ignorant. It is very dangerous to hold an iron stick. Even if she cannot hurt herself, she can easily hurt other children. It is safer to use a bowl.

Looking at his greedy little daughter, Zhang Hao felt that his heart was about to melt.

He no longer cared about the etiquette of the host's family, and quickly cut off two fresh and juicy lamb ribs, then threw the knife to the eldest son beside him, picked up Guoguo and came to the dining table.

Guoguo looked at the roasted lamb chops in front of her, smelled the rich aroma of meat, and couldn't help but reach out to grab it.

"Daddy, I want Qi."

"Be careful, daddy will help you blow it."

Zhang Hao pulled off a small piece of mutton from the mutton chop, blew it gently, tested the temperature, and then carefully handed it to the little cotton jacket's mouth.

Guo Guo opened her mouth and swallowed the mutton in one gulp.

Zhang Hao said with a doting look on his face: "Tell daddy, does it taste good?"

"Oh..." Guoguo nodded repeatedly: "Good Qi!"

"Eat slowly. Dad still has some here. I'll make sure you have enough to eat today." After speaking, Zhang Hao took out his handkerchief and carefully wiped the oil stains from the corners of his little daughter's mouth.

Zheng Jinxi, who was not far away, saw this scene and smiled and said to the First Lady at the same table: "Oh, I didn't expect that our Lord Consul would have such a... gentle side. It's really surprising." Is this such a surprise? Lao Zhang has been out for more than two years this time, and he has no guilt for the children. Besides, Guoguo is the youngest child in our family and the only daughter, so it’s right to feel more pain. ." Yang Huaqing explained with a smile.

Seeing her husband's sincere smile, she was extremely glad that she insisted on having a third child.

Zheng Zhenxi shook his head helplessly: "To be honest, the guy in our family doesn't have that patience. No matter how long he is away on business, he will at most bring a gift for the two children when he comes back, and nothing else will change."

"Well, I heard that Japanese people are like this. They are not very good at expressing themselves."

Yang Huaqing said with relief.

"Maybe! I really hope Meihui and Guoji can have a baby soon. Maybe Meihui's father will behave differently towards his grandson. After all, we Orientals have an old tradition of having grandchildren but not children."

"Mom, don't worry. Meihui secretly told me that she will start preparing for pregnancy after she and Guoji finish their wedding. She shouldn't have to wait too long."

"Really? That's good. I originally thought I had to wait until I graduate from Kokuji University?"

Zheng Jinxi couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as she has a child by her side, even if her daughter's marriage fails, she won't get nothing.

It's not that she is pessimistic, it's just that the conditions of the couple are quite different. To be honest, she still feels a little unbelievable and feels very uneasy.

This is the eldest son of a consul, and he is actually willing to marry a second-married woman who is five years older than him. His daughter must have saved the earth in her previous life, otherwise she would not have such amazing luck.

Yang Huaqing actually understood the other party's concerns very well. If the eldest son was her biological child, she would not agree to the marriage under any circumstances.

This is not unreasonable, but simply feeling unworthy for the eldest son. With their family's conditions, what kind of woman can't be found?Do you have to find a second marriage partner?

It was only because the husband was so obvious and the father-in-law was in poor health and eager to have a grandson that the eldest daughter-in-law was given the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole.

When An An and Kangkang get married, they must not be so hasty. At the very least, they must be as clean as the second daughter-in-law.

As for the younger daughter?
She had a strong feeling that since Guoguo was pampered by her father, even if she was no longer dissatisfied with her daughter's marriage partner in the future, it might not help.

Inadvertently, the time came to seven o'clock in the evening.

The guests had almost left, only Zhang Hao's second uncle and aunt were forced to stay by his old man because of their mobility difficulties.

Prepare to rest for a night and go back tomorrow morning.

The next day, Zhang Hao returned to the capital early in the morning. After handing over the work, he officially started taking vacation, but the vacation was shorter than expected.

Including the day, there are only ten days in total.

……

After the holiday started, Zhang Hao didn't go anywhere and spent most of his time with his family.

Because not long after the barbecue party, the old man Zhang Chongxin suddenly caught a severe cold, and his health deteriorated rapidly.

After careful treatment by the doctors, the disease lasted for more than a month, and it was not until the wedding of the eldest grandson Zhang Guoji that he got slightly better.

However, according to the doctor, the old man may not be able to hold on for much longer.

Although Zhang Hao was extremely sad, he did not push too hard. He just made a request to the doctor, that is, to let the old man survive until October as much as possible.

Because October is Guan Tong’s due date.

This is also the old man's last wish.

On August 8, Zhang Guoji and Mihui Mitsui held their wedding smoothly as planned.

At the end of the month, Mitsui Mie found out she was pregnant. In order to make her grandfather happy, the couple started preparing for pregnancy a month before their wedding.

Zhang Chongxin was really happy when he heard the news.

Zhang Hao took the opportunity to invite all his relatives over, on the one hand to celebrate his eldest daughter-in-law's pregnancy, and on the other hand to allow the old man to see his relatives and friends again.

The old man's physical condition is really not optimistic, and he is relying on his last breath to hold on.

The time finally reached mid-October, and Guan Tong's due date arrived as scheduled. In order to allow the old man to see his great-grandson as soon as possible, Guan Tong was arranged to give birth in the same hospital.

On October 10, Guan Tong finally gave birth to a boy.

Zhang Hao was very excited and immediately carried his eldest grandson to the old man's ward, and then he couldn't wait to whisper in his father's ear:
"Dad, look, Tongtong has given birth. She is a big fat boy, weighing seven kilograms!"

Zhang Chongxin opened his eyes with great difficulty.

Zhang Hao hurriedly handed the eldest grandson to the old man. The baby had just been born and was all red.

When Zhang Chongxin saw his great-grandson, his spirits suddenly improved a lot and he said loudly: "Okay...ok..."

Seeing this, Zhang Guoxuan on the side quickly picked up his grandfather's skinny left hand and gently placed it on the little chubby tiger's tender face.

Little Fatty Tiger was a nickname the old man personally gave his great-grandson before he fell ill. His nickname was also already chosen, Zhang Zeyu.

Zhang Chongxin immediately stroked him gently a few times.

The little fat tiger was disturbed and immediately burst into tears, leaving Leslie Cheung at a loss.

Li Dajuan wiped her tears, took the little fat tiger from her second grandson, and gently coaxed it.

Zhang Chongxin probably knew that his time had come, and while looking at his great-grandson, he confessed his last words.

In fact, most of the wills have already been explained before, and this time they are just repeated again.

"Xiao Hao, when everything returns to normal one day, remember to move your father's and mine's graves back to our hometown. I want to be buried in my ancestral graves. Don't forget this."

Zhang Hao endured the sadness and shook his head repeatedly: "Dad, you still want to watch the little fat tiger get married and have children? How can you say such depressing words?"

"I can't wait any longer. Although your father and I suffered a lot when we were young, in general we have a successful career and a family full of children and grandchildren, and all of them are very successful. I really have nothing to regret. I am content with my life."

Zhang Chongxin said with deep emotion.

Li Dajuan couldn't help but interrupt: "Old man, Meihui will give birth in June next year. Don't you want to see another great-grandson?"

"Think about it! I have...thought about it in my dreams, but it's a pity that I really don't have time." Zhang Chongxin paused, and then ordered his children: "After I leave, the four of you must take good care of your mother. Your mother's health Well, he is several years younger than me, so he should be able to see the little fat tiger grow up."

The four Zhang Hao siblings nodded at the same time.

When Li Dajuan heard these words, she turned her head away and couldn't stop her tears.

Next, Zhang Chongxin said one or two words to a large number of grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-granddaughters, each of whom took less than 1 minute.

Followed by several relatives representatives.

At the last moment, Zhang Chongxin drove everyone out, leaving only his son.

Ten minutes later, Zhang Hao's cry came from the ward. Everyone who stayed outside knew what this meant. The old man could not hold on after all.

Li Dajuan was so sad that she fainted in her little daughter's arms.
