I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha
Chapter 101: With a net worth of 4, his mentality collapsed.
Jiang Chen walked home after leaving his grandfather's old house, a place steeped in the passage of time.
The midnight wind blew on his face, carrying a biting chill, but in his heart, it felt like he was holding a scorching furnace.
He looked up at the night sky, which was illuminated by fireworks, and couldn't help but hum a tuneless little tune.
Cool!
So cool!
This feeling of using one's own abilities, in the most direct and brutal way, to change the fate of one's family and to make up for their life's hardships is far more captivating than simply seeing a surge in numbers!
He opened the mobile banking app again.
The original balance of over 30 million yuan had ballooned to a point that even he found somewhat unfamiliar after experiencing two epic blows: his parents' "retirement assessment fund" and his grandparents' "nutrition expenses."
Forty-three million seven hundred and forty thousand!
Nowadays, a young person in their early twenties can have more than 40 million in cash flow that they can access at any time.
What does this mean?
This realization caused a subtle yet profound shift in Jiang Chen's mindset.
If he had ten million, he would feel like a rich man, a super-rich man.
Now, with over 40 million, he feels like... a god!
back home.
The clock struck midnight.
The sound of firecrackers in the village suddenly became a continuous roar, the deafening boom seeming to tear the entire night sky apart!
Clusters of fireworks rose into the sky from every corner of the village, exploding into dazzling displays against the dark backdrop.
Very beautiful.
but……
That's so petty!
Jiang Chen stood in his own yard, looking at the scattered fireworks in the distance, none of which were more than thirty or forty meters high. For the first time, he felt a sense of condescension and disdain.
This kind of petty celebration is not worthy of the Jiang family's current status!
They are not worthy of his 40 million net worth!
A crazy and audacious idea, like a wildfire, instantly ignited in his heart.
Now that we have money, we have to play big!
Let's do things that others wouldn't even dare to dream of!
"dad!"
Jiang Chen turned around, faced the brightly lit room, and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Open our yard gate as wide as it can go!"
Inside the room, Jiang Jianjun and Wang Xiuying were carefully wrapping the 200,000 yuan in cash layer by layer with newspaper, preparing to hide it in a secret compartment under the bed.
Hearing his son's powerful shout, Jiang Jianjun poked his head out, looking completely bewildered.
"What are you doing? Why are you opening the front door in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
"Set off firecrackers! Welcome the God of Wealth!"
Jiang Chen's voice carried an undeniable excitement.
He didn't explain further, but simply turned around and strode towards the corner of the yard.
There, parked, was a huge van.
The same truck that delivered the 98-inch TV and a full set of smart home appliances to Jiang Chen's family a few days ago.
However, it didn't leave after delivering the goods.
Because the carriage also contained a batch of "big stuff" that Jiang Chen had acquired on a whim in Shanghai, at a high price, from a friend who specialized in organizing large-scale celebrations.
These things were originally just something he prepared as a precaution to keep things under control.
His original plan was simply to make the fireworks bigger and louder than those set off by the villagers, just to create a bit of excitement.
But now.
With a net worth of over 40 million, he felt that his previous plan was far too conservative!
That's so petty!
Jiang Chen walked to the back of the truck, grabbed the heavy iron lock with both hands, and opened it with a "click".
Then, with a sudden burst of strength, he pulled the two carriage doors open to both sides!
"Squeak—!"
Amidst the piercing sound of metal scraping against metal, the scene inside the carriage was completely exposed to the air.
Jiang Jianjun, Wang Xiuying, Jiang Ling, and Jiang Xiaobei, who were following behind, were all attracted by the commotion.
When they saw what was inside the carriage, everyone was stunned, as if struck by lightning, their mouths agape, wide enough to fit an egg!
Inside the huge carriage, there was no furniture or electrical appliances.
Yes, but they were just huge cardboard boxes tightly wrapped in tarpaulin, printed with various hazard symbols and technical terms!
Product Name: 8-inch High-Altitude Firework Shell (Golden Waterfall)
【Specifications: 12 rounds/box】
Product Name: W-type 1000-shot combination fireworks (starry sky)
[Firework height: 60-80 meters]
Product Name: Professional-Grade 30-Meter Fireworks Waterfall (Silver)
[WARNING: Do not set off fireworks if you are not a professional!]
……
The dense array of technical terms left Jiang Jianjun dizzy.
But he could understand the numbers and warnings on it!
Eight inches! What does that mean? It's bigger than his washbasin!
Eighty meters high? That's much taller than the tallest cell tower in the village!
These are no ordinary fireworks.
This is clearly professional-grade fireworks used in professional celebrations!
"Brother...you...did you bring back a fireworks factory?"
Jiang Ling's voice trembled as she looked at the "weapons" that almost filled the entire carriage, feeling that her worldview had been refreshed once again.
Jiang Chen looked at his family members' bewildered expressions and a bright, even arrogant, smile spread across his face.
He took out a black box from an open case. It looked like a walkie-talkie, but it was covered with various buttons and antennas, giving it a high-tech feel.
Professional-grade wireless remote control igniter!
He walked to the center of the yard and quickly arranged the rows of combination fireworks according to the safe distances specified in the instructions.
Then, he looked at his father, who was equally stunned, and grinned.
"dad."
Last year, our family couldn't even afford a string of 1,000 firecrackers, so we could only stand at the door and watch other people set off fireworks.
Jiang Chen paused, raised his hand, and pointed to the vast, dark night sky beyond the village.
His voice, though not loud, was clear enough to drown out the deafening sound of firecrackers and reach the ears of every family member.
"The rules have changed this year."
"Tonight, everyone in Jiangjia Village, no, everyone in Ping'an Town, will have to look up and watch our fireworks!"
