C88 – Blind Date
“This is actually Old Su’s house?”
One of them couldn’t resist shouting as they departed.
“Su Ming has quite the abilities, it seems.”
The villagers shook their heads in amazement and sighed.
Su Ming sat in the car, wearing a faint smile.
After all, because of his marriage to Wang Xue, his parents had been subjected to ridicule by many.
In less than an afternoon, word would spread to every household.
Money and advantages were the most crucial factors in this world.
When you possessed wealth, countless people would naturally seek your favor.
However, if you lacked wealth, even if you had no conflicts of interest with others, people would mock you.
That was human nature.
Who would dare to mock them now?
Old Su’s son had just driven home in a ten-million-worth car.
As Su Ming parked the car in front of the house, a few neighbors approached.
“Is this your son’s car, Old Lee?”nove(l)bi(n.)com
“Su Ming, you’re truly impressive.”
The sight of the gift in Su Ming’s hands sparked excitement in the neighbors’ eyes. Wasn’t this abalone and bird’s nest?
It was indeed abalone and bird’s nest!
They had only seen such luxuries on television.
Being ordinary folks, none of them were willing to splurge on such items.
Even when they fell ill, they would resist going to the hospital to save money.
“Su Ming, to be honest, we didn’t do much.”
The villagers seemed somewhat evasive.
“I remember dining at your place when I was young. Consider this my way of repaying your kindness from back then. Please accept it.”
These individuals did not turn down his gesture. They were delighted to receive abalones, ginseng, and deer antler, each getting a few pieces.
Su Ming retrieved several boxes of cigarettes from the car’s rear compartment. These cigarettes came from special channels and were of high quality.
They were top-notch products.
Su Ming handed the cigarettes to the older men nearby.
“I heard that only high-ranking officials can smoke such cigarettes.”
“My son was fortunate to receive half a box of these cigarettes in the past. They’re really something.”
“In the market, a box of these cigarettes would easily cost at least 200 yuan.”
Most of the villagers were smokers. They typically refrained from spending much and opted for cheap or old tobacco.
Rarely did they indulge in such premium cigarettes due to their reluctance to spend and the unavailability of these brands for purchase.
