Ants exploded, I opened a power plant to supply power to the world

Chapter 110 It’s New Year, driving back home
Now, after spending such a long time together, Ruyi has become more relaxed in front of Lin Zhe.

When he is at work, he still calls him "Mr. Lin" in a proper manner, but when he is on holidays and not working, he calls him "Brother".

At this moment her mother Jiang Zhu was also helping. Lin Zhe dropped his cigarette and patted her on the back of the head.

"Come on, stop being lazy and get to work."

With more than a dozen people in the family working together, it didn't take much time to move the things in and put them in order.

Originally, the basic furniture and home appliances here have already been arranged. Now that various other things have been moved in, the place suddenly has a breath of life. Today, Lin Zhe will spend his first night here.

By the time we were almost done, it was already time for lunch. Everyone had been busy throughout the day.

Naturally, Lin Zhe's family would not treat them unfairly, and seeing that it was almost time, Jiang Lan invited everyone to go to Lincheng Hotel.

Now that our family is not short of money, we have to choose good food, especially since it is almost the Chinese New Year.

This place is not far from Lincheng Hotel, and the whole family went there talking and laughing.

It can't be said that one person's success will bring prosperity to everyone around him, but Lin Zhe's business is so big now that it is quite prestigious for people who go out to know that they are the "uncles" or "aunts" of the president of Zhetong Electric Power.

……

"Boss Lin, is there anything else you need? I'll go get it now. If you don't have anything, I'll go back first. Please call me anytime if you need anything."

Today during the move, his driver Zhang Chen has been busy all the time. He has been running errands to buy anything that is needed. Now that the whole family is having a meal, he, as an outsider, has tactfully decided to leave first.

"Okay, it's nothing, it's almost time for you to go back for the holiday."

As he said that, Lin Zhe took out the prepared red envelope of 8,888 and handed it directly to him.

The group also gave him a year-end bonus, and he was stunned when he saw the money for a moment.

"Don't just stand there like an idiot. Take it. Happy New Year."

Lin Zhe treats his personal assistants and drivers with special favor. After all, these people work differently from others around him.

Being nice to them will benefit yourself more significantly.

If things are not good for them, they will be the first to do bad things.

Therefore, Lin Zhe had a clear handle on this matter. Since he was not short of money now, he might as well accept a little "favor" from them. This would make everyone happy and make them pay more attention to it.

Since Lin Zhe said so, Zhang Chen did not refuse. He took the big red envelope and put it in his pocket.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin. I wish you and your family a happy new year. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I am online 24 hours a day."

"Okay, it's Chinese New Year, why don't you spend a few days having fun with your friends and family? You can't drink alcohol when you drive on weekdays, so drink more these two days. I'm calling you for nothing."

After saying that, Lin Zhe reached out and patted him on the shoulder, then walked towards Lincheng Hotel.

After Lin Zhe left, Zhang Chen took a deep breath and was happy from the bottom of his heart.

He was touched by Lin Zhe's treatment. To him, the red envelope of more than 8,000 yuan was much more "generous" than the 10,000 yuan year-end bonus. It represented Lin Zhe's recognition of him.

……

The next morning, when Lin Zhe woke up, he was a little confused. He went to the place where the bathroom used to be and found that it was now a study room. Then he realized that he had moved yesterday.

This big villa is nice, but a bit cumbersome.

To have breakfast, you have to walk from the room to the corner of the building, and then go to the dining room on the first floor.

"Xiaozhe, you don't have anything to do today, right? If you have nothing to do, let's go back later. We also need to go to your mother's hometown as well."

It's already the 28th, and there are still two days before the New Year. No matter whether there is anyone in your hometown or not, you have to go back according to the customs in Lincheng.

After all, my hometown is where my roots are, and I have to burn incense wherever the grave is.

So after hearing this, Lin Zhe nodded.

……

After dinner, Lao Lin stood in the garage and looked at the three cars, stuck in a dilemma.

That old Volkswagen is definitely ruled out, but which one is better to drive, the Mercedes or the Bentley?
Bentley is naturally more expensive and more upscale, but when you drive it back, some elderly people might not recognize it. They don’t have much experience and the luxury cars they know of are limited to BBA.

This Bentley might even be mistaken for a better-looking "unorthodox" car.

At this time, Lin Zhe came to the garage with the things he wanted to take home. Seeing Lao Lin's expression, he knew that he was in a dilemma.

Lao Lin is the "King of Force", so he certainly won't miss the opportunity to go back home this time.

"Dad, I think you should stop worrying about it. Just drive one car back and I can drive one car back. If it doesn't work, just give me your Bentley and put it on your car."

In response to Lin Zhe's teasing, Old Lin decisively decided to drive a Mercedes-Benz, otherwise Lin Zhe would definitely talk more frequently and affect his performance.

……

Half an hour later, Lin Zhe's family set off.

After more than 20 minutes' drive, the houses on both sides of the county road became denser. As a native of Shima Town, Lao Lin was naturally very familiar with these people.

He stopped along the way, saying hello and smoking. It took him more than fifty minutes to arrive on the journey that should have taken more than half an hour.

In the past, their family would go back to stay for a while every one or two weeks. They have been quite busy recently, and the last time they came back was when Lin Zhe came to discuss matters at the forest farm.

The car stopped at the door, and before I got out of the car, the neighbors gathered around.

"The old Lin family is back!"

With a shout, people in the town, whether known or not, came to join in the fun.

This scene made Lin Zhe feel like Dong Ge's return to his hometown, but the difference was that he did not give money to the locals, but he also provided a lot of jobs. In the crowd of onlookers, several people wearing Zhetong Electric Workers' uniforms could be seen.

Unlike other people who called him "Lin's kid" or "Xiaozhe", they called him "General Lin".

"Wow, a Mercedes-Benz. Old Lin is really enjoying himself. He has a son like Xiaozhe, and now he has bought a Mercedes-Benz."

"Don't even mention a Mercedes. I wouldn't be surprised if they flew back. They are so rich now~"

"Xiao Jin, go talk to Lao Lin and see if he can get us a job as a security guard in Zhetong Power Group. Look, Old Man Liu at the east end of the village received 10,000 yuan for the New Year this year."

……

Listening to the words of the people around him, Lao Lin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

This was the scene he had originally imagined, but when it actually happened he felt a little uncomfortable.

In the past, when our home was still an ordinary family, it was lively but never like this. This scene is too exaggerated.

"Everyone, please make way. I'll drive the car into the yard."

As Lao Lin spoke, several people in the crowd wearing Zhetong work uniforms also stood up to help stop the crowd and make way for the car.

After the car drove in, he continued to stop everyone at the door.

"Everyone is home now, please don't disturb them. Don't make things embarrassing."

The person who said this was the village party secretary, and with the help of a few people from Zhetong Electric Power, everyone finally calmed down.

……

It was only after the car drove into the yard that Lao Lin began to regret. If he had known earlier, he would have driven the old Volkswagen.

Even if he drove that thing faster, it wouldn't cause such a big scene. Mercedes-Benz is still too conspicuous, especially in this small town.

"Lao Lin, did you hear what those people said? Don't blindly agree to it when the time comes. Everyone wants to join Zhetong. Don't harm Xiaozhe."

Hearing this, Lao Lin nodded.

"Am I the ignorant one? I know my limits. Those who want to join Xiaozhe's company should not even think of asking me for permission. We can't let everyone in. The same goes for Xiaozhe. Don't lower your standards just because we're from the same place."

Lin Zhe nodded at this.

"I know. I've always done this. Ruyi worked hard to get the job as my assistant. If my cousin is like this, let alone others, I won't bring disaster to my own company."

After Lin Zhe said this, the couple felt relieved, and then the three of them came home.

It's New Year's Day, and even though there aren't many people living here now and they celebrate New Year in the city, they still have to clean the house.

After a brief period of work, Lin Zhe followed his parents to the hillside behind the house, where his grandparents were buried.

According to Lao Lin, he will be buried here one day when he gets old.

Green smoke rose straight up, and the family of three waited patiently in silence for the paper money to burn out.

……

After coming down from the mountain, Lin Zhe went to Wang Shuqing's house. There were a lot of cigarettes and gifts in the trunk. Lin Zhe took two packs of cigarettes and two bottles of Maozi and went to the house.

Wang Shuqing's wife saw Lin Zhe appear at the door and hurried over to greet him, calling out to Wang Shuqing.

"Old Wang! Old Wang! Mr. Lin is coming!"

"Aunt, you can just call me Xiaozhe."

"Hehe~ That won't work. Now you are our boss, Lao Wang. We depend on you for our living."

……

Two bottles of Maozi and two packs of Huazi.

Wang Shuqing had smoked Huazi before, but he had never drunk Maozi.

A bottle of wine costs more than 2,000 yuan, but I can't afford to buy it even though I have the pension from the provincial power plant and the double salary from Zhetong Power.

But now that Lin Zhe sent it over, I can naturally try it.

"Hey, thanks to you, I can drink this national wine. Why don't you have dinner at my house later and I'll open it and give it a try."

"No, Mr. Wang, I have to go to my mother's house later, so I'll come over to see you."

As the number one employee of Zhetong Electric Power Group, Lin Zhe was happy to see Wang Shuqing looking energetic.

Then the two chatted for a while and then stood up to say goodbye.

……

As the car started, Jiang Lan looked at Lao Lin sitting in the back seat and teased him.

"Why don't you drive? How about you drive around town and have some fun?"

Old Lin quickly waved his hand at this.

"It's not satisfying. This is a bit too scary. Xiaozhe, please open the car quickly. Let's go to your mother's house for dinner."

The scene with so many people just now still left a bit of a shadow on Lao Lin, especially since so many people were clamoring for him to open a back door to enter Zhetong Electric Power, which made him a little resistant.

In his opinion, the achievement of bringing honor to the family has been achieved. Lin Zhe has also done a lot for the rest and provided a lot of jobs in the town. If he wants to let people in through the back door, it will be absolutely impossible.
