If the confession fails, then pursue her best friend

After leaving the supermarket, Li Yuan took Bai Weixi and went straight back to his hometown in Banxu Town.

As soon as the two got off the car, Li Zixia ran over to say hello:

"Sister Weixi, welcome home."

Li Yuan's other cousins ​​also came over to say hello, especially the cousins ​​who were younger than Li Yuan, who all called her sister-in-law directly.

"Sister-in-law is here? Will you celebrate the New Year with us today?"

"Sister-in-law, please sit down and eat some melon seeds!"

Bai Weixi blushed when Li Yuan's cousins ​​called her "sister-in-law" again and again. She looked very shy, but she was really happy in her heart and followed suit to greet them.

Li Yuan took down the high-quality snacks and fruits he bought and shouted:
"Zixia, Xingxing, Junjun, your sister-in-law bought you a lot of snacks and fruits from the supermarket, come quickly and eat them."

"Wow, durian, cherries, cherry tomatoes... they are all my favorites. Thank you, Sister Weixi." Li Zixia took the fruits excitedly with a smile on her face.

"I picked it especially for you. If you like it, eat more!"

Bai Weixi smiled sweetly. She was very smart. When she met Li Zixia in Magic City, she had already memorized his interests and hobbies, such as his favorite snacks and fruits...

……

With the hard work of Xia Qin and several aunts and aunties, a large table of food was soon ready, with more than twenty dishes.

As a luxurious villa in the countryside, there is an extra-large luxurious living room on the first floor with an extra-large rotating table.

Li Yuan looked at the big family in front of him and felt a sense of pride.

In my previous life, I didn't do very well. Although I was admitted into the system, as I was from a family of farmers for three generations, I had no background or connections, so I was somewhat frustrated and could not bring honor to my family.

In fact, there might be many people gossiping behind your back.

But this life is completely different.

His current position, right here, cannot be shaken by anyone.

The six bottles of collectible Moutai placed on the table, each worth more than 3000 yuan, are a reflection of this reality.

For my uncle, aunt, cousin and other authentic farmers, if it weren’t for Li Yuan, they probably wouldn’t have had the chance to drink Moutai in their lifetime…

In Dali Village, each family has only six or seven acres of land, and a year's harvest cannot even buy two bottles of Moutai.

So, I wouldn’t be willing to drink it at all.

When doing things in the village, the cigarettes they use are still Huangshan cigarettes that cost seven yuan a pack, and the wine they use is just the local "seed wine" that costs twenty or thirty-one yuan a bottle...

And now?
As the "wine commander", Li Yuan picked up the wine glass and looked at the large family in front of him.

Although, they have low education, no background, and ordinary families and cannot provide me with any help.

But he knew one thing: it takes three to make a hero, and it takes three stakes to make a fence.

In rural areas, no matter how rich you are, if your family is small, you won’t have much say and will be bullied.

Unless, completely break away from the village and settle down in a big city.

Li Yuan picked up the wine glass and spoke slowly:
"Grandpa, grandma, uncle, second uncle, uncle, cousin... Thank you all for giving me this honor. It's a rare opportunity for us to have a meal together on New Year's Eve..."

"I hope that with our joint efforts, our Li family will live a more prosperous life."

"Come, let's drink this cup together."

When Li Heng heard Li Yuan say this, he felt very proud and the smile on his face never stopped.

During the past six months, he had personally experienced what it meant to be "a father's status depends on his son". Wherever he went, he was respected. This was an experience he had never had in his entire life...

"Come on, cheers!"

"Our Li family is so blessed to have a child as promising as Xiao Yuan. Our ancestors are so proud of this."

"With Xiao Yuan here, our whole family will be able to live a good life in the future. Under Xiao Yuan's leadership, our lives will definitely become more and more prosperous."

"Yes, Xiao Yuan has grown up now, so you should help your brothers and sisters more in the future. We are all from the same family, with an inseparable blood relationship, and we must unite together in the future..."

As Li Yuan started speaking, his uncles, cousins, and sisters all stood up and raised their glasses together.

Adult men all drink white wine, while girls drink fruit juice and other beverages.

Listening to the whole family's respectful greetings, Li Yuan felt a little elated.

At this moment, he began to understand why there is the saying "If one does not return to his hometown when he is rich and powerful, it is like walking in fine clothes at night."

This kind of spiritual satisfaction is more fulfilling than receiving any amount of popularity and praise from the outside world.

Although their education and cultural level are not high, and they have no status.

But this kind of feeling, being able to lead a family to grow stronger, is completely different.

Li Yuan suddenly thought of the scenes he often saw in his previous life, of large families with hundreds of people greeting each other and celebrating the New Year together.

At that time, he felt that as long as such a family united, no one in the local area would dare to bully them.

Looking at the big family in front of him, an idea suddenly came to his mind.

With my current abilities and vision, I may be able to establish a big family like that in the future.

Money is not a problem, the direction of development is not a problem, and making money is even less of a problem.

As long as they are willing to follow my arrangements, they will definitely have a good future and enjoy the good life with me.

In his previous life, he had a good relationship with several of his cousins...

As the cups were exchanged,

After drinking the white wine, my uncles, aunts and two cousins ​​started talking about some things that happened to the young and old men in the village.

Uncle Li Zhen said:

"Third brother, you weren't at home, so you don't know. After the news of Xiao Yuan's fortune spread, many people in our village were jealous and made sarcastic remarks and rumors behind his back..."

Li Heng frowned and asked coldly, "Who said that?"

Li Zhen replied: "Who else could it be? The family of the second branch. Before, they relied on the village secretary in their family to suppress our first branch. Now that Xiao Yuan has become powerful, of course they are not convinced..."

My eldest cousin, Li Zichao, who has been growing vegetables at home for many years, has a good understanding of the gossips of the young and old men in the village, and he also said:
"I've also heard them talking behind our backs, and what they said was pretty unpleasant. Anyway, they definitely don't like our whole family."

Li Heng snorted confidently: "They are still rebelling. They have always wanted to suppress us. Now they want to do the same thing again. No way."

After Li Heng finished speaking, he looked at Li Yuan and said:
"Xiao Yuan, I have discussed with your uncle, second uncle, uncle, and brothers these days. We are planning to build a family ancestral hall. What do you think?"

As soon as Li Heng said this, dozens of people at the dinner table immediately looked at Li Yuan, waiting for his reply.

They all know who is the person who is in charge of the family now.

When Li Yuan heard his father propose to build a family ancestral hall, he did not object or agree immediately.

"Dad, how did you think of building an ancestral hall?"

Li Heng explained with a smile: "I saw that people in the Magic City all do this. Some big families will build family ancestral halls to enhance the cohesion of the family. Now we bury our graves in the ground. After my brothers and I pass away, they may gradually become distant..."

"We had it in the past, but it was taken away during a special period because of the ingredients..."

"Xiao Yuan, what do you think?"

"We all want to hear your opinion and wait for you to make a decision." After hearing his father's explanation and ideas, Li Yuan nodded and agreed with the idea of ​​building a family ancestral hall.

Building a family ancestral hall is not new and can be seen frequently, especially in the southern region.

Since his father and uncles all wanted to build a family ancestral hall, he naturally had no reason to object.

Building an ancestral hall would only cost a few hundred million or so, which was not a problem at all for him.

Li Yuan thought about it and said with finality:
"I have no objection to building a family ancestral hall. I fully support it. In my opinion, if we want to build an ancestral hall, we should set a higher standard and learn from the big families in the south. In the future, no matter which city our family develops in, we will have our own roots..."

"In addition, I suggest that in addition to building the ancestral hall, we should also revise our family tree according to our lineage..."

Hearing Li Yuan's idea of ​​"compiling a family tree", the four brothers Li Heng and Li Zhen all had bright eyes and were very excited inside, as this was a big deal.

By building a family ancestral hall and compiling a family genealogy, the family will have its own roots and heritage in the future, and naturally it will have cohesion.

"Xiao Yuan, your idea is very good. Let's do it this way. The family ancestral hall needs to be repaired, and the family tree should also be repaired."

Li Heng said excitedly:
"The Second House has always wanted to suppress us. From now on, we can suppress them and let them gossip behind our backs..."

Second uncle Li Cheng added: "Since we are going to revise it, let's discuss now how to revise it, where to revise it, what to revise, and where to start compiling the family tree..."

Uncle Li Wu also said: "We have land and houses on the roadside, so we can just build it. If there is not enough land, we can exchange it from the nearby one, or buy it directly."

Li Heng nodded: "Old Four is right, just buy it directly, and make sure it is built beautifully."

Next, everyone contributed their opinions and the matter was settled.

In fact, the four brothers had already discussed it a few days ago.

Just waiting for Li Yuan to come back and express his attitude.

After all, whether it was building a family ancestral hall or compiling a family tree, the money must have been paid by Li Yuan.

Uncle Li Zhen's face was flushed from drinking. He picked up his wine glass and said with emotion:
"Come on, let's have a drink together as a family. This is the first time I've drunk Moutai in my life, and it's all thanks to Xiao Yuan."

Li Heng was also excited after drinking and his face was flushed.

"Come on, come on, have a drink. We are all family, so let's not talk about different things."

As the conversation went on at the table, the topic finally turned to family development.

They all knew that Li Yuan was worth over 100 million yuan, had opened several companies, and was a big star. They all wanted Li Yuan to help them and lend a hand to his cousins.

Li Heng looked at his son, feeling extremely proud. Thinking about the situation of his other three brothers, he gave him earnest advice:

"Xiao Yuan, you are up now, see if you can help our family."

When Li Yuan heard this, he understood what his father meant.

He naturally would not refuse to help his uncles, aunts and cousins.

In the future, his wealth will only increase. Since his father has already asked for it, it is only right for him to help his father's brothers.

It's just a piece of cake.

Even if his father wanted to give several million to his brothers, Li Yuan would not object.

At this point, money is really just a number to him.

Now, the daily sales of the game "Honor of Kings" exceed 100 million, which is basically all net profit.

This game alone is worth tens of billions of dollars, plus the future "Zhihu.com" and "Cha Yan Yue Se" milk tea shop.

In addition, he is preparing to discuss an acquisition plan with Yuandian Chinese Network.

The current scale of Yuandian Chinese Network has grown significantly due to its emergence, but its overall market value is not too high, at most at the billion level.

With his current financial resources, he could complete the acquisition plan in less than a month and bring Yuandian Chinese Network, the future leader of online literature, directly under his own command.

He believed that as long as he acquired Yuandian Chinese Network at a price higher than the market price, Wu Wenhui would definitely agree.

Even if he disagrees, he can still start from scratch and establish a new literary website.

At this time, in addition to Yuandian Chinese Network, there are still many literary websites...

Creating an online literature website is just a small investment direction for Li Yuan.

He still has many investment directions in mind, and is just waiting for "Honor of Kings" to go online to raise a large amount of funds.

Only when you have money can you get involved in some industries, such as online shopping, food delivery, short videos, communications, etc.

After he had the capital, and with his understanding of the future development direction, making money was really easy, even faster than using a money printing machine...

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and Li Yuan looked at his father Li Heng, his uncles, and his cousins:
"Dad, uncles and aunts, we are all family. I am definitely willing to help."

"Well, tell me what you think, and I'll think of a solution."

"Whether you want to start a business, invest, or just make some money, I can help."

Hearing Li Yuan say this, the elders Li Zhen, Li Cheng, Li Wu, and cousins ​​Li Zichao and Li Ziliang all stared at Li Yuan with fiery eyes.

The reason why they sat together for dinner was not just to drink some Maotai liquor, but more to ask Li Yuan to help them get out of poverty and become rich...

Uncle Li Zhen said with a smile on his face:
"Xiao Yuan, with your words, we brothers are completely relieved."

Second uncle Li Cheng said more directly: "Xiao Yuan, I will hand over your two brothers to you. You can decide what they can do. If they dare not listen to you, I will break their legs..."

The eldest uncle also said: "Old Second is right. If you have any ideas, just tell them. Your cousins ​​will definitely listen to you."

When the four cousins ​​heard what their parents said, they knew that they were doing this for their own good, so they quickly expressed their opinions to Li Yuan.

As the eldest brother, Li Zichao, who was already in his early thirties, stood up, poured a full glass of white wine, and looked at Li Yuan:
"Xiao Yuan, I'm not good at talking, so you can just make arrangements directly from now on. It's all in the wine, I'll drink it."

The other three cousins ​​followed suit and raised their glasses.

"Boss is right. If you have any questions in the future, Xiao Yuan, just tell us. We promise to do as you say."

"Hehe, from now on, we brothers will follow you, Xiao Yuan."

"Xiao Yuan is so kind, he will definitely make good arrangements for us."

Listening to what his cousins ​​said, Li Yuan smiled and did not refute.

Among my cousins, the oldest is only in his thirties, and the other three are in their twenties. This is the most energetic and enterprising time in their lives.

Li Yuan agreed immediately: "Don't worry, leave it to me!"

Li Yuan did have some ideas about the arrangements for his cousins. Although they could not become rich and powerful due to their education and vision, they would have no problem becoming wealthy men...

Bai Weixi sat next to Li Yuan, listening to Li Yuan discussing "family affairs" with his family, and felt very satisfied.

This shows that the Li family has accepted her and regarded her as a "family member"...

……

After lunch,

A large family, more than a dozen men, all reeking of alcohol, set out in a mighty procession to perform the New Year's grave-visiting ceremony...

In northern Anhui, it is a tradition to visit the graves of ancestors in groups every year. It has been passed down for a long time...
