Chapter 1062 Li Dong's Decision
Inside the shrine.
The ancestor worship has reached the last process, sending off the ancestors respectfully.
I have to say that the young people nowadays just don't have the rules of the older generation.
You see, the ancestors were invited back first, and now they still remember to send the ancestors away in a proper manner.
If it's the younger generation, they just know to ask, but don't remember to give it away.
Li Dong was thinking wildly in his mind, bowing in a proper manner to send his ancestors away.
After the ceremony, the cannon was fired.
Outside the ancestral hall, firecrackers roared, and red debris flew all over the sky.
At this time, everyone in the Li family no longer had the rigidity and seriousness they had before. They chatted together in groups of threes and twos, with unconcealable smiles on their faces.
Li Dong was talking with Li Chengfu at this time.
Li Chengfu is the oldest member of Li Chengyuan's generation in Chenjiawan. Now what happens to the Li family is mostly decided by Li Chengfu.
Of course, Li Dong's family is not included.
At this time, Li Chengfu was all smiles, and said to Li Dong: "Dongzi, look, our old Li family is different now.
But in the village, his Chen family is still in charge.
During this period of time, the village will be re-elected, and the village secretary and village director will have to be re-elected. Dongzi, me, I have recently been thinking about running for the village secretary. Do you think it makes sense? "
Li Dong smiled and said, "Second Uncle wants to run for election, so let's do it.
Although there are not many Li family members, they are not too small. If they all vote for you, it shouldn't be a big problem. "
Li Chengfu said awkwardly: "We have quite a few Li family members, but there are more Chen family members, and on our Li family side, the big guys may not just vote for me."
"I'll ask my dad to say hello to everyone later, as for the Chen family..."
Li Dong paused and said: "After all, the Chen family is the main surname of Chen Jiawan, or the second uncle should run for the village director, and the secretary will be reserved for the Chen family, so there is no need to be so stiff."
Li Dong is actually not too concerned about the affairs of the village.
However, if the Li family wanted to run for a secretary or something, he wouldn't say anything.
The old house is here, and my parents may come back to visit it often in the future. Having a family member as the village leader can save a lot of trouble.
Hearing that Li Dong asked Li Chengyuan to greet everyone, Li Chengfu immediately smiled.
There is no need for Li Dong himself to come forward for this matter, the richest man's father said hello, is a village chief still a matter?
Chenjiawan is not a rich place, and it doesn't have any resources. The big guys don't care too much about who the secretary and director are.
Li Chengyuan said hello, I'm afraid no one in the Chen family dared to speak.
The two were talking, and Li Chengyuan also came over.
At this time, Li Chengyuan's face was not very good-looking, and he said angrily: "Where is Nanming? Who saw it?"
Li Chengfu was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "Is Nanming here?"
"I didn't see it just now, this bastard thing!"
Li Chengyuan was really angry, what a big deal it is to worship ancestors, and you, Li Nanming, didn't participate!
If this is left in the past, the genealogy may be delisted!
Hearing that Li Nanming did not participate in the ancestor worship, several old people beside him also rushed over, showing dissatisfaction on their faces.
Of course, no one spoke.
After all, Li Nanming is Li Chengyuan's nephew, or Li Dong's cousin. This matter can only be said by their father and son. If other people say it, it may make them unhappy.
If they didn't say anything, Li Chengyuan didn't know where Li Nanming had gone.
Although Li Qing who was not far away knew it, he didn't know what to say at this moment, after all, Li Dong was there.
Seeing that his father was angry, Li Dong persuaded with a smile: "Dad, it hurts you to be angry. Today is a big happy event for the Li family. Don't get angry over such a trivial matter."
"Is this a trivial matter?" Li Chengyuan said angrily, "I saw him before entering the door, and he disappeared in a short time. He deliberately opposed the ancestor!"
"Dad, don't be mad. I've taken him away."
After Li Dong finished speaking, the others immediately fell silent, all of them a little confused.
you got it?
Why are you taking Li Nanming away so well?
Li Chengyuan also looked at Li Dong with some puzzlement,
He wasn't in a hurry to ask questions. His son had a lot of ideas on his own now, and Li Chengyuan wouldn't get angry before he figured it out.
One is a son and the other is a nephew, which he still knows is close.
Seeing everyone looking over, Li Dong said indifferently: "Li Nanming caused trouble outside and owed a lot of money to usurers, and the loan sharks came to block him just now.
I was afraid of delaying the ancestor worship, so I got him away. "
"usury?"
"No way?"
"What's the matter, didn't Nanming say that he made a lot of money outside?"
"..."
Everyone in the Li family began to discuss in low voices, and Li Chengyuan's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Dongzi, really?"
"Can I lie to you?"
Li Dong smiled and continued: "Dad, Li Nanming is hopeless.
In the past few years, although I didn't help him directly, I don't know that he subcontracted those projects in my name.
If you really work hard, it is not difficult to earn hundreds of thousands a year.
After a few years, it's not difficult to save a few hundred thousand on hand, right?
In addition, the uncle left him a house back then, and the family still had some savings, including a house, a car, banknotes, everything.
Marry a daughter-in-law and live a good life, and you can be considered a top-notch family in Qingyang.
But he wants to gamble, go whoring, just thinking about getting rich overnight, and being lazy, this kind of person has long been abandoned.
The mud can't support the wall, so I won't take care of him in the future, Dad, you don't have to help him anymore.
Everyone is here today, and they are all family members.
I don't hide it either. You say I'm cruel or cold-blooded. Li Nanming has nothing to do with me in the future. Whether he lives or dies, I won't care about his own affairs. "
Li Dong's resolute words made the others tremble slightly.
Li Nanming is his own cousin!
Even Li Nanming said that if he doesn't care, he just doesn't care, which is almost a severance of ties. Li Dongxin is indeed ruthless.
It is obviously not angry to say this in front of everyone in the Li family and in front of the ancestors.
Originally, when Li Dong went back to his hometown today, some people in the old Li's family were moved.
But now hearing this, everyone's minds can't help but cool down.
Li Dong naturally noticed the change in their expressions.
They are all from the village, not so sophisticated, and their disappointment is on their faces.
Li Dong waited for them to digest for a while, and then slowly said: "Throughout several generations, we are all one family.
Unless it's really worthless, I, Li Dong, am not a person who forgets his roots when he gets rich.
Starting from this year, I will subsidize 10,000 yuan a year for the elders of the Li family who are over 60 years old.
For children who are still in school, I will pay for the tuition.
Isn’t there no primary school in the village? You have to go to other villages to go to school. Later, I will build a primary school in the village and ask the best teachers to teach them!
I take care of the elderly and children.
Others have hands and feet, so they have to support themselves!
If anyone wants to work in a distant place, I will not refuse. If you have the ability, you can do it to the boss.
If you have no ability or ability, then at most you can have enough food and clothing.
I said all these ugly words in front of me. Most of the people present today are my elders. What I said may not sound good, but I, Li Dong, think that what I have done is also considered to be in place.
Unless a guy like Li Nanming eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles and doesn't do serious things, other people, if they really have trouble, come to me, Li Dong, and I, Li Dong, won't turn my back on anyone.
I will pay for the road repairs in the village.
Whose family's child is promising, is admitted to a prestigious university, or wants to learn a skill to make a living, you tell me, Li Dong, about these things, can I, Li Dong, still watch?
They are all one family, and I also hope that the Li family can get along better.
As long as you do serious and reliable things, I have no reason not to support you.
But when I am a cash cow, this kind of thing is impossible, everyone knows it well. "
Although these words were not polite, they were straightforward, but as soon as Li Dong finished speaking, several elders surnamed Li hurriedly said: "Dongzi's words are so benevolent and righteous, who can say otherwise!"
"That's right, everyone has hands and feet, how can they starve themselves to death?"
"I don't live up to my expectations, and I only count on Dongzi, how can I do it!"
"..."
A few elderly people responded first, and then people with school-age children at home also applauded!
The old people support it, which is what Li Dong said before, 10,000 yuan per person over 60 years old.
Just kidding, is ten thousand yuan less these days?
There are two elderly people in the family, and the annual savings are 20,000 yuan, which is more than their entire family's savings.
Putting it in the countryside, I really need to live another four or five years. With this money, it is enough to build a small western style building.
And those who have children are also reckoning.
Let alone those who have passed elementary school, the tuition fee is not high, but those whose families have children who want to go to college, the tuition fee is not a small amount.
In some families, two or three children can overwhelm the whole family because of tuition fees.
Now that Li Dong directly covered the tuition fees, he felt relieved all of a sudden. What else can he say?
The elderly, children, and these two groups of people alone almost included all of the Li family.
There are no children or old people in the family, and there are not many.
Even if there is, it is convenient for everyone to talk at this time, otherwise it would offend everyone.
Chenjiawan has a small population with the surname Li. There are fifty or sixty households in total. There are five members in a family, and there are less than 300 members.
For Li Dong, these expenses add up to about one million a year.
With a net worth of nearly 100 billion, spending a million a year in his hometown is really nothing.
After all, they are all from the same clan, if they really want to do nothing, their reputation will be ugly.
Of course, Li Dong is not really that easy to talk to, he only cares about the elderly and children, and other people are in their prime, with hands and feet, and he will not support them.
If you want to get ahead, you have to rely on yourself.
Really expecting to get rich from Li Dong, it can only be said that they thought too much.
Li Dong would rather help outsiders who live on their own efforts than raise some moths.
The Li family all applauded. As for Li Nanming, he has long been forgotten by everyone.
Not an acquaintance, some people flattered Li Nanming before, it was because of Li Dong's face.
In fact, Li Nanming grew up in Qingyang, and he didn't know the people in the village well. Who would want to lose his own benefits for Li Nanming.
Seeing Li Dong's resoluteness, Li Chengyuan had a look of sadness on his face.
Looking at the others, Li Chengyuan said wearily after a while: "Dongzi, let's go out and talk."
Li Dong nodded and followed his father out of the ancestral hall.
At the corner of the ancestral hall, Li Chengyuan hesitated to speak.
Li Dong took the initiative to say: "Dad, since I said it, it must be serious.
Before you helped him, I turned a blind eye and didn't say anything.
But now, if you help him again, I will tell Mom.
You paid Li Qing the down payment, did I speak?
This little money is really nothing to me. I can earn 100 houses without working for a day!
On Li Qing's side, he is steadily opening a supermarket. I have no problem with how you help.
But Li Nanming?
He's just a moth, so I still have to keep him?
Today he dared to lose millions in betting, and dared to take loan sharks, but tomorrow he dared to lose tens of millions, hundreds of millions!
I'm not a banker, and he's an adult, so there's no need to discuss this matter! "
Li Chengyuan sighed: "Dongzi, did he really take out usury?"
"Um."
"Lost the bet?"
"Um."
"How much do you owe now?"
Li Dong frowned slightly, and said after a while: "I don't know the specifics, but there must be five or six hundred thousand."
"Pay him back, otherwise you don't care about him, he was really killed by those people. I know these people..."
"dad!"
Li Chengyuan waved his hand and said, "Just this time, you paid him back this time, and I won't care about him anymore."
Li Dong frowned and said: "If there is a first time, there will be a second time. If you help him pay it back this time, he won't have a long memory. If he still comes to pester you in the future, what will you do?"
"I..." Li Chengyuan was speechless.
Seeing that his father was not in a good mood, Li Dong said after a while: "Qian, I will help him solve it.
But how to solve it, Dad, don't worry about it.
In short, if he can have something to eat, I am worthy of him, Dad, what do you think? "
"It's up to you, I don't care about this."
Li Chengyuan knew that Li Nanming might have to suffer a lot this time, but it was good that he was fine.
As for the future, let's talk about it later.
Without thinking about Li Nanming, Li Chengyuan changed the subject and said: "The Li family, what you said is enough, you did a good job.
People can't forget their roots, our roots are here.
When your father and I die, we have to be buried here, and your grandparents are also here.
Everyone, old and young, can help as much as they can, and it is enough for others to work hard on their own.
But Chenjiawan is not just our Li family, they all belong to the same village, and the others..."
"I understand this." Li Dong nodded and said: "Other elderly people in the village, 5,000 yuan per person over the age of 60, and children, if they are admitted to college, I will pay for the college tuition.
As for the others, although I'm not short of money, I don't need to do too much. I have sons and daughters, so I can't count on them all. "
"That's the reason." Li Chengyuan nodded.
When Li Dong came back this time, he was sure to bleed. After all, there was a lot of rumors. If he didn't bleed, he would be cast aside.
Now that Li Dong has arranged this way, no one can tell why.
Li Jiagen is here, and the reputation of his hometown is still important.
No matter if you are an official or a businessman, if you really want to be successful, no one will disregard the nostalgia.
Li Chengyuan was quite satisfied with his son's arrangement, and the only one who was somewhat disappointed was Li Nanming's nephew.
This is a serious relative, but it turned out to be worse than outsiders.
Disappointment in my heart is disappointment, Li Chengyuan didn't bother to say, nephew, after all, he was still a step behind.
If Li Dong kissed his elder brother and younger brother instead, Li Chengyuan would be furious if Li Dong said so decisively today.
But cousin, whether you recognize it or not depends on Li Dong himself.
