In officialdom: After she left, I rose rapidly through the ranks!

Twenty bundles, a full two hundred thousand yuan in cash. In Linchuan County, where the average income per capita is only one or two thousand yuan, and where rooms cost only a few hundred or a thousand yuan, two hundred thousand yuan in cash is truly a lot.

Previously, when Chen Dachuan and his wife wanted to borrow money for Chen Dashan, they only wanted to borrow 100,000 yuan, or even tens of thousands.

As a result, they borrowed nothing, but today, Chen Dashan directly took out 200,000 yuan in cash and put it out.

"Dachuan, sister-in-law, here is 200,000 yuan in cash. Don't say it's a loan. We're brothers, and brothers don't talk like that."

"Take this money and use it. You don't need to pay it back. This is the money I prepared for Jingcheng's wedding. I am his uncle, so it is only right and proper for me to make these preparations."

These words really warm my heart.

Of course, if they hadn't experienced what happened before, then it would indeed be true that Mr. and Mrs. Chen Dachuan would be genuinely moved, grateful, and even thankful.

However, after witnessing the true colors of Chen Dashan and his son, seeing all this now felt like a dream to Chen Dachuan and his wife.

Most importantly, no matter how nice Chen Dashan's words sound now, they genuinely find it hard to believe.

The changes were too rapid.

It's so fast it seems unreal.

At this moment, Chen Dachuan and his wife exchanged a glance and suddenly remembered what Chen Jingcheng had told them.

Chen Jingcheng said that his status and position are now different. He still holds some power and is deeply trusted by the county magistrate. In the future, many people will try to get close to him in all sorts of ways, give him money and gifts, and even try to take advantage of Chen Dachuan and his wife.

He told Chen Dachuan and his wife to be prepared, but also to make sure they absolutely refused any gifts, no matter whose they came from.

Do not agree to any requests from anyone.

The Chen couple will no longer be bullied; instead, they will face all sorts of sinister smiles.

Today, the directness and change in the Chen family, father and son, make it hard for them not to have some thoughts.

After all, they knew Chen Dashan and his son very well over the years.

Chen Dachuan took a deep breath, looked at the money on the table, then at the good cigarettes on the table and the good wine on the floor, and shook his head, saying, "Brother, you can keep the money."

"Take all these cigarettes and alcohol with you. We don't need them anymore."

"Jingcheng, we've already broken up and have no plans to get married for the time being. I think that when we look for girls to marry in the future, no one will deliberately make things difficult for us."

"So, we appreciate your kind gesture, but we won't accept the money or gifts."

You're not accepting it anymore?

This is not the outcome Chen Dashan wanted.

In the past, Chen Dashan wouldn't have wanted to give a single penny, but now, he has to.

Chen Jingcheng's business is not only related to his current restaurants, but more importantly, his current prospects and future potential are so promising that people will try every means to invest in him.

Chen Dashan is Chen Jingcheng's uncle, and he should have had the advantage of being close to him. However, things have turned out this way, and he has to find a way to improve the situation.

Only by improving this relationship will everything be different from then on.

Three restaurants? Is that a lot? As long as Chen Jingcheng goes further and further in the future, Chen Dashan can open thirty restaurants.

And all those projects that we used to beg and plead for will be easily obtained in the future.

He didn't even need Chen Jingcheng to say anything. As long as Chen Jingcheng acquiesced, he could make a fortune under Chen Jingcheng's name.

Two hundred thousand? Two hundred thousand is nothing. He can get back two million, twenty million, or even two hundred million through Chen Jingcheng!

He calculated this perfectly!

When Chen Dashan heard Chen Dachuan's refusal, his face immediately turned ugly. He naturally dared not get angry, as he knew very well that he was there to beg for help.

They begged for forgiveness from Chen Jingcheng's family and sought to mend their relationship.

However, refusing to accept it is not an option.

He came not just to make an attitude, but to show his attitude. How much is an attitude worth? In Chen Dashan's eyes, an attitude is worthless.

Only after we receive this money can we discuss anything else.

Two hundred thousand is quite a lot. The tobacco, alcohol, and Laoshan liquor together are also worth a considerable amount. If this is delivered here and Chen Jingcheng's family accepts it, then to put it bluntly, it's like they've got leverage over Chen Jingcheng. Of course, they wouldn't mind sharing the profits with Chen Jingcheng in the future, and they would share a lot of it.

However, the prerequisite is that Chen Jingcheng must let him earn enough.

"No one gets up early for nothing" perfectly describes Chen Dashan; "He'll do anything for whoever pays the most" also applies to him.

"Second brother, is it that you refuse to forgive me?"

"You refuse to forgive Jing Han?"

At this point, Chen Dashan looked at Chen Jinghan, who was kneeling on the ground without moving, and roared, "What are you still standing there for? Your second uncle won't forgive you!"

"Why don't you slap yourself in the face and show your second uncle and aunt your sincerity?"

Helpless, Chen Jinghan could only continue slapping his own face.

Chen Dashan, looking at Chen Dachuan and his wife, said in a deep voice, "Second brother, sister-in-law, do you only forgive me if I, as your eldest brother, kneel before you?"

"We were born of the same parents. Your older brother didn't take good care of you and made you suffer. You want to kneel down? Fine, I'll kneel down for you."

After saying that, Chen Dashan stood up, intending to kneel directly in front of Chen Dachuan and his wife.

This time, he's a general.

Mr. and Mrs. Chen Dachuan had never seen anything like this before. They had never encountered such a rogue as Chen Dashan. Besides, this was really their elder brother. How could they let him kneel?

Chen Dachuan quickly stepped forward to stop Chen Dashan, saying helplessly, "Brother, what are you doing?"

"The child is still here; wouldn't you be making a fool of yourself?"

"It's not that we don't forgive you, really, it's not that we don't forgive you, it's just that, you know, we really don't need this money right now."

"Jingcheng and I have already broken up, so we don't need the money anymore."

Chen Dashan did not kneel down as expected, but he kept talking.

"Jingcheng has broken up with his girlfriend, but he'll still have to date and get married eventually."

"Money will be needed sooner or later. Even if Jingcheng's future wife doesn't ask for an exorbitant amount, as Jingcheng's family, we still need to make him look good."

"Besides, there's the wedding house too. We'll have to buy one sooner or later."

"I know this isn't much money, but don't worry, I'll give you more when I earn more. You're my own brothers and sisters-in-law, and Jingcheng is just like my own son."

"Take it, you must take it, otherwise you're disrespecting me as your elder brother, you're not forgiving me, and I'll have to kneel down and apologize to you."

At this moment, Mr. and Mrs. Chen looked at each other, completely at a loss for what to do.

We definitely cannot accept it.

But if we don't accept the money, and Chen Dashan continues like this, it's not a solution either.

However, at that very moment, the sound of a key turning in the lock rang out.

Chen Jingcheng's figure appeared in everyone's sight.

For Chen Jingcheng, today's scene was remarkably similar to the one before.

However, this time is completely different from the last time!
