Get rich quick starting with buying a house with zero down payment

Chapter 100 Family Reunion

Inside the car, the fourth sister and her husband listened to their niece Fu Xiaoya chatting with her younger brother Lei Guoliang, and watched the skyscrapers that were countless times taller and more impressive than those in the county town rushing past the window. Their unease was gradually replaced by a sense of novelty and pride.

Although they didn't know exactly what Lei Guoliang did, just by looking at this car, they knew that he must be doing quite well in Shenzhen.

As the car entered Future Coast Phase III, and the high-rise buildings with ocean views and meticulously manicured gardens came into view, my fourth brother-in-law couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, Guoliang, the environment in your community is truly wonderful! This garden, this greenery—such a high-end community, your house—must be worth a fortune!"

"Not bad, we made it in time." Lei Guoliang said casually as he parked the car smoothly in the underground garage.

When they actually stepped into Lei Guoliang's 190-square-meter mansion, the three of them were once again so surprised that they were speechless.

The expansive view, luxurious decor, and unparalleled sea view far exceeded their expectations of what a house should be.

Just then, Ji Fanyin came forward from the direction of the kitchen. Lei Guoliang naturally introduced them: "Fanyin, this is my fourth sister, her husband, and my eldest niece, Fu Xiaoya. They came from our hometown and will be staying here for the next few days."

Then, he turned around and introduced his wife to his four sisters and the other two: "Fourth sister, fourth brother-in-law, Xiaoya, this is Fanyin, Ji Fanyin. She is my wife."

Upon hearing this, Ji Fanyin felt a sudden jolt of nervousness, but more than anything, she felt an indescribable sweetness and sense of peace.

To have Lei Guoliang personally acknowledge her as his wife in front of her closest relatives carries more weight than any promise. A blush rose on her face, but her expression remained poised and dignified as she smiled and greeted the three of them.

Fourth Sister and her husband were stunned for a moment, then their faces lit up with smiles, and they said repeatedly, "Good, good!" Their eyes looked at Ji Fanyin with even more affection.

The eldest niece, Fu Xiaoya, secretly sized up her aunt, who was elegant, beautiful, and poised, her eyes filled with envy.

Lei Guoliang didn't take them to a hotel for dinner. Instead, at their home in Future Coast, he and Ji Fanyin personally cooked a welcome meal for their relatives who had traveled from afar. The aroma of a seafood feast filled every corner of the mansion, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Lei Guoliang drank ice-cold beer with his fourth brother-in-law while listening to them recount the changes in their hometown and the hardships of farming.

Looking at the simple smile on his fourth brother-in-law's dark face, and listening to his niece's chattering questions, Lei Guoliang experienced for the first time, amidst the busy game of capital, a long-lost and down-to-earth feeling of everyday life.

Ji Fanyin gently served the dishes, occasionally interjecting with a word, taking care of the guests' feelings while demonstrating her proper manners as the hostess, making the Fourth Sister's family feel very welcome.

On the morning of May 1st, the doorbell rang again. This time, it was the two sons of Lei Guoliang's deceased elder brother: his eldest nephew Lei Zhengping and his second nephew Lei Zhengchang.

They each brought their wives and children, and came all the way from Kengzi, Longgang.

In his previous life before his rebirth, Lei Guoliang had visited Kengzi Town once to see his eldest nephew Lei Zhengping's family. At that time, his second nephew Lei Zhengchang had not yet come to work in Shenzhen, and neither Lei Zhengping nor Lei Zhengchang had ever made a special trip to visit their uncle.

Now, they probably know that their uncle Lei Guoliang is doing well in Shenzhen. He not only bought a house in the county town, but also drove a car worth hundreds of thousands of yuan when he returned to his hometown for the Spring Festival.

In addition, my fourth sister, her husband, and my eldest niece may have contacted them before coming to Shenzhen. It just so happens that it was during the May Day holiday, which led to today's scene. The two brothers brought their whole family.

My eldest nephew, Lei Zhengping, is a kind and honest man with an excellent temper. He learned martial arts from his maternal grandfather from a young age, making him strong and resilient. When he first came to Shenzhen, he stayed with his stepfather's son.

His stepfather's son met a local girl while working in Kengzi and later became her son-in-law. Lei Zhengping initially got a job as a handyman in a Hong Kong-owned electronics factory through this connection, earning only 800 yuan a month.

Later, thanks to his hard work and integrity, he gained the boss's appreciation and has now been promoted to manager, mainly responsible for receiving goods. After the suppliers deliver the large amount of raw materials needed for the factory's production, he must inspect, confirm, and sign them before the suppliers can receive payment.

According to his stepfather's son in private, with Lei Zhengping's current position of power, he could easily make a million yuan a year if he wanted to.

This Hong Kong-funded electronics factory is quite large, with more than 3,000 workers at its peak. It purchases a huge amount of raw materials, handling hundreds of millions of dollars.

However, Lei Zhengping remained unmoved. He only took his monthly salary of six thousand yuan. He considered it normal for suppliers to give him a pack or two of cigarettes, so he accepted them; he also didn't object to occasionally having a meal together to maintain relationships.

However, he always firmly refuses to accept money or shopping cards directly, and even warns the other party not to break the rules.

The living room was suddenly packed with more than a dozen people, creating a lively atmosphere. Lei Guoliang looked at these blood relatives and felt a surge of emotions.

In their past lives, most of them were busy making a living, leading ordinary but arduous lives. In this life, he would never let them walk that path again.

When Lei Guoding's eldest nephew Lei Zhengping saw him, perhaps because they hadn't seen each other for so long, they were a little estranged, or perhaps because Lei Guoding had now achieved success in his career and had a different status.

So instead of casually calling him Guoliang like he did when they were kids, he respectfully offered tea and tonics, with a simple and honest smile on his face: "Uncle, congratulations on your success in Shenzhen! We heard that Aunt and Uncle were here, so we brought our family to visit you and them during our holiday."

The second nephew, Lei Zhengchang, seemed more lively, but also showed respect for his uncle: "Uncle, your house is so grand! We work in Kengzi, it's nothing compared to this. I heard your company is doing very well, could you perhaps—"

He didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear.

Lei Guoliang looked at them, his expression calm and gentle: "Zhengping, it's normal. I'm glad you've come. You've shown your thoughtfulness."

He looked at his eldest nephew, his eyes showing approval: "Zhengping, you became a manager in the factory because of your ability and conscience."

That six thousand yuan salary was earned with dignity.

Remember, as long as you have the ability and walk the right path, you can stand firm anywhere. Trying to make quick money might feel good in the moment, but it will lead to endless trouble. You did the right thing, and your uncle is proud of you.

Hearing his uncle's affirmation, Lei Zhengping's face flushed, and he nodded excitedly, "Thank you, Uncle! I will definitely remember your words, do my job honestly, and live an upright life!"

Lei Guoliang then looked at his second nephew and the other younger relatives around him: "You can all see Zhengping; he is a role model. No matter where you work, you must be down-to-earth and honest. There are no free lunches, but hard work will pay off."

Once I've made arrangements on my end, I'll naturally point you in the right direction, but the prerequisite is that you have to prove yourselves capable.

His words were delivered with neither arrogance nor servility, praising those who were upright while also pointing out the direction and setting rules for others. The younger generation all nodded in agreement, their respect for this uncle deepening even further.

Meanwhile, after the May Day holiday, the A-share market ushered in an even more frenzied May. The positive factors accumulated during the market closure completely erupted, and the market broke through the 1500-point and 1600-point marks with a daily increase of nearly 2%-3%! The market fell into a state of irrational euphoria.

Lei Guoliang's ghost fleet, caught in this torrent, saw its net worth expand at a breathtaking rate. 50 billion, 55 billion, 60 billion...

Hundreds of millions — the number is breaking records every day.

He remained extremely calm, strictly controlling his position size and not adding leverage out of greed, simply enjoying the enormous beta returns bestowed upon him by the times.

Late at night, when the noisy crowd had all fallen asleep, Lei Guoliang stood alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of Future Coast, overlooking the city that never sleeps below.

Behind him were the kinship and hustle and bustle of family ties, and in front of him was the steep, heart-stopping net worth curve on the screen, representing more than 60 billion yuan in assets.

On one side is the warmth of everyday life, and on the other is the torrent of capital.

He knew that the arrival of his relatives was just the beginning. In the future, more relatives, friends, and old acquaintances would come knocking on his door, drawn by this growing momentum.

How to handle these complex interpersonal relationships, and how to help them in the most reasonable way without hurting feelings, will be a compulsory course for him as a human being, and also a touchstone for him as a god.

Meanwhile, outside the window, the town of Shenzhen was bathed in the scorching and frenzied May sun. The entire city, along with its stock market, its real estate market, and its people, was caught in an unprecedented and dizzying golden dream.
