Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 140 Turmoil
It was only nine o'clock when he returned to his sister's house. He bought three or two melon seeds and sat at the station eating them while waiting for his uncle, leaving his mother to rest at his sister's place.

It wasn't until a little after nine that a black Passat stopped beside him.

"Abao."

The glass window rolled down, revealing a middle-aged figure with a slanted scar on his face. He looked elegant yet a bit tough.

"Uncle." Qin Dahe was surprised. He finally waited for someone to show up.

"Uncle, why did you drive back? It's so hard to drive here from Shenzhen."

"Haha, I rented one in Jiuzi." The man laughed and parked the car in front of the eldest sister's house.

He couldn't drive his own car back, so he had to rent one. He had to return home in style when he made a fortune.

"Aunt." Seeing a gentle figure getting out of the car, he hurriedly greeted her.

"Abao is so big now, and he hasn't been back for several years." The woman chuckled, and when she saw the eldest sister coming, she went to greet her.

My sister and brother-in-law also came. They are the best relatives in the family and we have a very close relationship.

"Xiao Lin, do you remember your brother?" The last person to come down was also a fat boy about ten years old. He looked very similar to Binbin and was actually Binbin's cousin.

"Brother." The little boy greeted him stiffly.

Qin Dahe took the man to find another fat boy, and the two of them stared at each other.

"Call me cousin."

"uncle."

Qin Dahe didn't care that the little guy called out the wrong name, and pointed at Binbin and said:
"Xiao Lin, this is your cousin, do you have a red envelope?"

"Ah." Xiao Lin was a little confused. He was so young and he was already an elder?
He hesitated for a moment, took out a small frog from his pocket and handed it to his nephew.

"Thank you!" Binbin's eyes lit up. He grabbed the little frog and held it tightly, chewing on it.

"Don't chew it, it's a toy." Qin Dahe touched the heads of the two dolls with a smile. It's really fun to have chubby children.

On the other side, Qin's mother was holding her aunt's hand and asking about her eldest brother's situation in Shenzhen.

Her younger brother had been wandering around for so many years, and she felt very distressed when he was still unmarried. She only felt relieved when he started a family.

"Rong Xiang eats well and sleeps well, and he has gained weight this year." The aunt was able to lower her status when chatting with the country people, and responded carefully to Qin's mother's questions.

"Sister, this is for Aqin. Let Binbin eat more."

My uncle took out a box of imported milk powder from the trunk. Qin Dahe knew at a glance that it was worth two or three thousand yuan.

"Still eating! He's become as fat as a ball." The elder sister happily took the milk powder.

There is no need to push and shove with her own uncle. She thinks this milk powder is very high-end.

"Haha, Binbin and Xiaolin looked exactly like each other when they were little. They were only cute when they were fat." My aunt said with a smile.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when looking at the two little fat boys. They really did look alike.

"Then let's go back first, the old man is still waiting."

"it is good."

My uncle drives fast, so he started the car and went back first. He knew the way to his hometown.

Qin Dahe honked his tricycle, said hello to his elder sister and left.

They met up at the entrance of the village, and then sailed back to their grandfather's house, where cars couldn't enter.

This time I'm going directly to my dad's house with my mom, and he must stay for lunch.

My grandparents lived at the junction of Qin Dahe's village and Xiaoguowei. It was under the jurisdiction of Xiaoguowei, but not far from his home, just opposite Xinba.

It was a three-room mud house with a quite spacious yard. When they arrived, the old couple were waiting at the intersection eagerly.

They saw that he was quite enthusiastic. After all, Qin Dahe had gained some fame recently, and the news had reached their ears.

"Dad, I gave you over 100,000 yuan to repair the house. There is no room for our family to live when we come back." My uncle complained.

"Your younger brother is buying a house in Hefei, so I have to support him. As his elder brother, you don't even know how to transfer money to him." The grandfather glared at his son.

My uncle looked a little unhappy. He had to take care of his younger brother since he was a child. Now he is in his thirties and has started a business. It would be awkward for him to support him alone.

"You can't live here. We just built a new house here." The old mother said with a smile, and then started to busy herself in the kitchen.

She is the eldest sister, and since the younger ones are not around, the old couple basically call her when they have something to do. She is actually a little unhappy about it, but after all, they are her own parents.

"That's not necessary. Our house is so spacious." Grandpa said unhappily.

How embarrassing it is that my own son doesn't stay at home but goes to his sister's house instead.

My uncle carried his things into his house and sighed when he saw the dilapidated earthen wall.

"Wife, I'm going to be wronged again."

"It's okay, just live here. But I'm worried there might be bugs in this place. Do you have a new quilt?"

"I don't know. I'll go to my eldest sister's house to get it later."

"It can only be this way."

My aunt is reasonable. As a daughter-in-law, she certainly can't ask for too much, since she only comes back every few years anyway.

"I've talked to my dad about bringing him to Shenzhen or asking my younger brother to buy a house in Hefei to support him. I'll send him money every year, but he just won't do it."

"We can't change the old man's ideas. He is very stubborn," she said depressedly.

My old man is pretty much the same. He is stubborn about some things and can't be reasoned with.

The couple packed their luggage and packed the things they needed to take to their eldest sister's house in separate items. They went to their eldest sister's house for dinner in the evening.

At noon, the old man didn't come today. He wanted to stay at home to look after the house. As usual, Qin Dahe wanted to accompany his uncle for a drink.

However, neither of them felt like drinking at noon, so they gave up. It would be better to drink in the evening, and then they could go back and sleep.

"Abao is very capable now. Sometimes he can earn 200 yuan a day." As she spoke, Qin's mother began to praise her son.

"Working is not enough. If you want to make a fortune, you have to study and do business." Grandpa said proudly, and grandma also looked at her eldest son with pride.

Qin's mother was a little indignant. Her two sons started to make sarcastic remarks after they were well-educated. She had to come back to see them every once in a while.

"Abao, you are so awesome." The uncle looked at his nephew in surprise.

He doesn't have the same idea as his father. Leaving the countryside is a good thing, but as long as those who stay can support their families, they are considered capable people.

Not many people in Shenzhen can earn two hundred yuan a day.

"Fortunately, I can make more money from fishing when the weather gets warmer. Now it's cold, so I can only make some money by welding," he said modestly.

"Fishing? Can you make money from this?" My uncle and aunt looked at each other in bewilderment.

There are also people who go sea fishing in Shenzhen. The boat fare for a trip costs several thousand yuan, and few people can make a profit, let alone inland.

"Yes, there are a lot of silver carp and bighead carp on the other side of the sluice. We can always make some money by relying on the Yuxi River." Qin Dahe smiled faintly.

My mother then told everyone about Qin Dahe's fishing experience. Everyone was surprised to hear that he could sell more than 3,000 fish for a day.

"How many hundred kilograms of fish can you catch in a day?"

"Well, if you fish alone, you might be able to catch a bighead carp, but not grass carp or black carp." "Great, haha. When I'm free sometime in the summer, I'll come back and play with you."

The more he looked at his nephew, the more he felt that he was not simple at all. He was very reliable in what he said and did.

The dishes on the table were pretty good, but they didn’t taste good because my grandfather didn’t even have MSG.

People in rural areas also eat MSG. No one here is pretentious about food being unhealthy or anything like that. As long as the food tastes good, that's enough.

The only braised duck became the focus of uncle and Xiaolin, as Qin Dahe was a guest and could not eat too much.

"Dad, when will my younger brother come back for the New Year?"

"He's quite busy, maybe before the New Year. You can call him to ask for details."

"Why don't you fight? The Chinese New Year is only a dozen days away."

"The phone bill is so expensive."

Uncle: “.”

The phone bill here is only a few cents, so it's expensive for him to make calls. He can't even afford the roaming charges and makes calls frequently.

When he got off the plane, he spoke on the phone with Mr. Wang from Wuwei for more than 30 minutes, and his phone was almost shut down due to unpaid bills.

"Let me ask."

The uncle sighed and called his younger brother directly.

"We're having dinner at Dad's. When will you be back for the New Year?"

"Still busy? You should come back sometime for the New Year. I'm so busy that I'll have time."

"I'm back during the peak sales season for the New Year. Are you busier than me?"

"Okay, okay, whatever you want. Abao is getting married on the eighth day of the first lunar month. If he doesn't come back, you'll be in trouble."

It was a simple phone call, and after two minutes my uncle hung up angrily.

"I don't know what Xiaozhuce is doing. He said he won't have time during the Chinese New Year and may not come back." He was so angry that he even spoke in dialect.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Grandpa glared at him.

The atmosphere at the table suddenly became tense. Qin Dahe was fine, as he seldom visited his uncle's family, even though they lived not too far away.

But Qin's mother was sad, with a dark face, sitting at the table without saying a word.

Even though it's such a big thing as my son's marriage, he keeps making excuses and I didn't treat him badly in the beginning.

"Don't worry, sister. I'll drive to Hefei and bring him back."

"No need, let him be busy if he wants to." The old lady said with a cold face.

She quickly finished her meal and went to the back, not even wanting to hear what reasons her grandfather had for her.

Whose family isn't busy? When my younger brother was in college, he sold Qin Dahe's grandmother's things to raise money for his living expenses and tuition. Now he's repaying her family like this?

"Abao, your uncle's business is not doing well right now. Please be understanding and go back to persuade your mother." Grandpa comforted Qin Dahe.

He was also afraid that his daughter would make a fuss, as he and his wife relied on their daughter for support in the village.

"I don't care, but you know my mother's temper, it's useless to persuade her now. She will be fine after a while." He said lightly.

He really doesn't care, as long as his uncle is here.

There is also a second uncle in the village. Although he is a cousin, he is closer to me than my biological uncle. It is enough for these people to attend his wedding.

My uncle didn’t come to the wedding in my previous life. He was busy with his trivia in Hefei, and in the end, he had to rely on his own father to suck the blood of my eldest brother.

Thinking of some things that happened in his previous life, he couldn't help but purse his lips. His uncle was still too kind.

The meal ended up being unsatisfactory.

In the afternoon, the family of three followed the boat back to his home, leaving only a message saying that they would go back to sleep at night.

When he got home, Qin Dahe first comforted his mother, because his mother cried on the way and his uncle was so anxious that he wanted to fly to Hefei to beat her up.

"Mom, why are you crying? We are living a good life at home." He said with a smile.

"I was the one who brought up your uncle. He didn't even come back for your wedding. What kind of person is he?" The old woman sobbed, and he felt distressed just looking at her.

"If you don't want to come back, then don't come back. As long as uncle comes, I'm glad. Don't be angry."

"I feel uncomfortable."

"Don't be like that, I'll go get a mandarin fish from Third Master, and you can make some braised pork for Xiaolin, and we can have a drink tonight."

When she heard that she had to prepare food for her eldest brother's family, she wiped her tears and stood up. Thinking that it was still early, she sat down again.

He was throwing a tantrum like a little kid, and Qin Dahe was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Okay, take your aunt to visit my second uncle's house."

"My son is sensible." Seeing her son's appearance, she felt much better.

My son is more reliable. No matter how close my younger brother is to me, he is not as close as my son.

"Unless the old man is sick, I won't go there anymore. I rely on my two sons, so I'll just let him take care of it."

"Whatever you want, I'll go and keep my uncle company."

"Ah."

Mother Qin wiped her tears in front of the mirror, straightened her clothes, and then went out.

In the afternoon, his uncle wanted to learn how to drive a boat from him and said he would lend him the boat for a few days because the car was of no use at all.

"I thought the village had a road. It cost me more than 10,000 yuan to rent a car, and no one in the village could see it." My uncle said with concern.

It's not easy for him to make money outside. The food and drink expenses in Shenzhen are already quite high, and he also has to support his parents.

"Let's go pay it back tomorrow. I'll drive you on my tricycle when you leave."

"That won't do. I also have a mission when I come back this time."

"What mission? Also, you have more than 20 days off this time?" Qin Dahe was a little confused.

The competition in Shenzhen should have started, and Mouwei should be one of the best. Why does he have such a long vacation?
"Haha, it's all thanks to my fellow villager." My uncle proudly told the story.

It turns out that the battery company he is working with now has a wide range of business, and has even secured Motorola's battery supply. Its sales have been climbing steadily this year, and it has also built an industrial park in Shenzhen.

The company cares a lot about this customer, and it would be even better if it could get orders every year or even reach a cooperation.

Knowing that the other party's boss was going back to his hometown this year, I gave him a long vacation to come back and visit, so that we could get to know each other if there was a chance.

"I specifically called Mr. Wang to talk to him. He invited me to dinner in the county town on the 28th. I have to leave my car with me."

"And the company has already covered the car rental. Knowing I was going to have dinner with a big client, they directly approved 30,000 yuan for me."

"So rich." Or perhaps it means that a certain company has great vision.

The development of a certain company is indeed impressive, but the battery company is no pushover either. After two years, it started to get involved in the automotive industry, and its growth really took off.

You should know that the first single model of car in China to sell more than 10,000 units was a product of this battery company, and it was sold when it first entered the automotive industry.
