Returning wealthy individuals develop their hometowns and become rich in the 1980s

Two Mercedes-Benz 450s, one black and one silver, drove into the courtyard of the county civil affairs bureau. As soon as the cars came to a stop, Chen Lianxiang got out of the car and walked quickly into the hall of the civil affairs bureau with Chen Zaiguang.

Liu Guomin and Fang Songmao, who got off the bus later, followed Chen Zailong and Chen Zaixing hesitantly into the hall. Xiao Lin and Xiao Li, who had been working overtime and had been waiting for a long time, were embarrassed to keep their cold faces when they saw the three Chen brothers.

Chen Zaixing was a smooth talker. He unzipped his briefcase, took out four packs of cigarettes, and handed one to each of them. He even gave two packs to the security guards who were helping him open the door. Before leaving, he added, "Thank you all for your trouble, comrades. You've worked hard!"

Chen Zaixing is a man who has become familiar with officials of all ranks in Nanshan County in such a short time. He has good interpersonal skills. With the backing of Guangdong Company and the local power of Huaxingsheng Supermarket, he is not afraid of any official and treats them all equally.

He truly treats everyone equally. Whether you are a lowly clerk or a high-ranking official, Chen Zaixing can chat with you warmly for a few minutes. The key is that Chen Zaixing has an excellent memory. As long as you have talked to him, he can remember your name and call you out directly next time. He won't seem to have forgotten it afterward or have to think of your name in person, which would make people feel awkward.

Although Chen Zailong is also a steady person, he appears calm but lacks the ease and skill to handle things as smoothly and effortlessly as Chen Zaixing. Now, when he meets Lin Deying, the county party secretary, he can sit there and chat casually with Lin Deying about the economic reforms of Nanshan County.

Whether you understand or not is none of your business, but once the words are on Chen Zaixing's lips, he won't let them fall on the ground. He'll find a way to elevate them. Lin Deying sometimes thinks that Chen Zaixing is truly a born businessman!

The five brothers, the eldest Chen Zaiguang, is an open-minded and elder brother with a strong sense of responsibility. He is willing to make choices, and he is not greedy for credit or reckless.

The second son, Chen Zaisheng, is somewhat arrogant. He sometimes has two different faces and tones when dealing with family members, acquaintances, and outsiders. He does have the right to be proud. Back when he graduated from Tuocheng University, there were only a few scholars in the entire Tuocheng and only about twenty in the entire Nanshan County!

If it weren't for that political movement, Chen Zaisheng would probably be a county party secretary by now. But after his trip to America, his arrogant nature subsided considerably. After witnessing the gap between his hometown and others, he only thought about how to better develop his hometown.

As for the third brother, Chen Zaiguang, after that incident, his true colors were fully revealed. He was somewhat selfish, which didn't leave a good impression on Chen Dong. Originally, Chen Dong thought he was just a bit dull, but after that incident, he felt that Chen Dong couldn't rely on him and that he would let Chen Dong down at crucial moments.

After receiving two packs of Huazi cigarettes from Chen Zaixing, Xiao Lin and Xiao Li looked much more normal. They sat behind the desk and waited for Chen Lianxiang and Liu Guomin to sit down before asking, "Did you bring your household registration book and marriage certificate?"

"Um!"

"I brought them," Liu Guomin placed the household registration booklet and their marriage certificate, which were in a bag, on the table. Xiao Lin, as usual, read out the procedures, "Did you divorce voluntarily? Have you agreed on child custody?"

"It was voluntary!"

"Everything has been negotiated!"

"Okay," Xiao Li took out two divorce certificates, wrote down their names, and then stamped them with the official seal. Once the seal was stamped, their status as husband and wife was no longer legally valid!

The formalities were completed quickly. The two, each holding their divorce certificates, got up and walked outside. Chen Zaixing subtly covered the two red envelopes with a piece of paper and said again to Xiao Lin and Xiao Li, "Thank you both for your hard work!"

Just before leaving, Chen Zaixing put his arm around the security guard at the gate, slipped his hand into his pocket, and smiled, "Thank you for your hard work, it's Sunday and I still have to trouble you to open the gate!"

The security guard patted his pocket and smiled, "It's alright, drive slowly!"

"Let's go!"

From entering to leaving, the whole process took less than half an hour. Chen Zaixing was impeccably polite, leaving no room for gossip. He offered cigarettes to the security guard throughout the process. Xiao Lin and Xiao Li, having finished packing their documents, also came out. Seeing the security guard staring at them with a smile, they felt a little embarrassed, as it was the first time they had received a red envelope.

The security guard simply said, "Did you forget anything? If not, I'll lock the door!"

"No, no," Xiao Lin and Xiao Li waved their hands, lowered their heads and walked away quickly. The security guard locked the door, sat back in the security room, and happily opened the red envelope Chen Zaixing had given him. Twenty yuan plus two packs of cigarettes. This shift is great!

In the car, Chen Zaixing said to Liu Guomin, who was sitting in the back, "The divorce is over, and it's not easy for a grown man like you to raise three kids. Don't let it delay your remarriage, so let my sister take care of them. Don't worry, she won't mistreat the three children!"

"As for the clothes and jewelry my sister left at your house, you can keep them and deal with them yourself. I won't go and get them," Chen Zaixing turned around and offered cigarettes to Liu Guomin and Fang Songmao.

Liu Guomin still wanted to try, after all, Liu Shaozhong was willing to go back with him in the first place, and his mother, Liu Lishi, had also said that even if they were to divorce, they had to leave the children behind and not let Chen Lianxiang take them all away.

I just want to keep this bond, in case we can remarry in the future because of the child!

Fang Songmao hurriedly said, "Zaixing, these three children should at least be left as a memento for the Liu family, how can we let your sister take them all away!"

"Shaozhong wants to live with my brother-in-law. You let him go with him back then at your doorstep, so there's no reason for you to stop him now!"

"The children are young and don't understand, but aren't you also ignorant?" Chen Zaixing looked at Fang Songmao, then at Liu Guomin. "With my sister and us uncles taking care of the three children, their future achievements will be incomparable to those left in your Liu family."

"If you really cared about the child, you shouldn't have said that. You're taking Shaozhong back to the Liu family to suffer with you!"

At this point, Chen Zaixing glanced at his fourth brother, Chen Zailong, and said, "How about this, I'll personally contribute two thousand yuan, consider it your contribution. You don't need to worry about the three children's future; they're all my sister's children, and we uncles will do our best to raise them until they go to university!"

When Liu Guomin heard Chen Zaixing mention two thousand yuan, he hesitated, but Fang Songmao spoke up, saying, "Two thousand yuan is a bit low, how about five thousand?"

"hehe!"

Chen Zailong, who was driving, laughed. Although he didn't turn around, Fang Songmao and Liu Guomin could still hear the contempt and disdain in his laughter.

"Fine, five thousand it is. From now on, our Chen family and your Liu family have absolutely no connection! Except for announcing a death, don't come looking for the three children at any other time!"

"good……!"
