How can I go back to the past?
Chapter 380: Hundreds of Millions of Lighters
"Second brother, why are you here?" Ye Qi asked.
Ye Wei: "What you said, isn't it normal for me to come here?"
Ye Qi: "No, I mean why did you come here at this time?"
Ye Wei: "I came to see my uncle and aunt. I can't come anytime."
Ye Qi: "Okay!"
The old man patted Ye Wei on the head and said, "You little bastard, just say you came to see her, what's wrong? Why are you making up so many excuses?"
Ye Wei rubbed the place where he was slapped and said, "Uncle, I just came to see you and aunt."
"Okay, got it." The old man said with a smile.
Just as Ye Wei sat down, Li Le's brother-in-law and aunt also came over, and of course, Ye Bin followed behind them.
"Brother, sister-in-law."
"Come here, come and sit down." The old man nodded.
"Oh!"
"You little brat, you've been back for a few days but you didn't come over to see me." The old man suddenly said to Ye Bin.
"No, I've thought about coming here for a long time. We're going to my father-in-law's house, so..." Ye Bin said quickly.
"Okay, stop making excuses. If you want to come, you can come when you have time."
Ye Bin knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't say another word and just stood there with his head lowered.
"Well, the child has finally come back, why are you so nosy?" the old lady said to the old man.
"Okay, come and sit down too!"
The old man still has to give the old lady face.
"Thank you, uncle, thank you, aunt."
"Come and sit down." The old lady patted the sofa next to her and said.
"Ok!"
After Ye Bin sat down, the old lady looked up and said to Li Le, "You little bastard, why are you still standing there? Come and sit down."
"Oh!" Li Le touched his nose and quickly ran over to sit down.
What followed was an introduction, mainly of Ye Bin and Ye Wei, since I hadn’t seen them the last time I came back.
After the introductions were finished, Li Le turned around and asked, "Mom, when will my elder brother and sister come back?"
"I don't know about that either. Anyway, he is coming back, but he didn't say when he will come back."
"OK then."
Li Le thought he was the only one who came back and didn't tell his family, but he didn't expect that his elder brother and sister did the same.
"Don't leave tonight. Let's make a sumptuous meal and celebrate together." The old man said at this time.
"Okay, Dad, I get it. I'll prepare it right away." Mom said quickly.
"Brother, sister-in-law, I'll go and help." The aunt stood up and said.
"Well! Go ahead!" The old man nodded.
"Grandpa, grandma, dad, I'll go help too." Nie Weiwei also said quickly.
"Son, you've been in the car all day, just sit down and take a rest, and let your mom and the others do it!"
"It's okay grandma, I'm not tired."
"This is not a question of being tired or not, this is..."
Before the old lady finished speaking, Li Le said, "Grandma, don't forget that Weiwei is also a member of this family."
"Ugh! This..."
Nie Weiwei looked at Li Le gratefully, and then said to the old lady, "Yes, grandma, I am also a member of this family, so I should go and help."
"Alright then! Go ahead then!"
"Ok!"
At this time, Li Qingcheng also sat up and said to the old man and the old lady: "Grandpa and grandma, I'm going too."
"Okay, okay, let's go!"
Li Qingcheng and Nie Weiwei went, so Ye Qi would definitely go too! There was no other way, if she didn't go, there would be no one to play with her.
"After they left, Ye Bin hugged Li Le's neck and said, "Boy, that's great! Finding two such beautiful girlfriends."
"Uncle, are you very envious?" Li Le asked.
"Nonsense, who wouldn't be envious!" Ye Bin said.
Ye Wei next to him slapped his forehead helplessly and was speechless to Ye Bin.
"Is that so? Okay, I got it. When Auntie comes back in a couple of days, I'll tell her and I promise you can find another one."
"Uh! Lezi, you can't make this joke." Ye Bin quickly shook his head and said.
Li Le shrugged and said, "I'm not kidding! Didn't you say that? You are very envious."
After hearing what Li Le said, Ye Bin could no longer help but understand that he had fallen into Li Le's trap.
Ye Bin quickly took out a pack of unopened Zhonghua cigarettes from his pocket, handed it to Li Le and said, "Please smoke. Just pretend you didn't hear anything."
"Uncle! You sent me away with just a pack of cigarettes?"
"What do you say."
Li Le thought for a moment and said, "I plan to go to the city in two days. I heard that a new Bazhuang has opened in the city."
Li Le's words left Ye Bin speechless! He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll treat you."
Father Li said at this time: "Kid, stop teasing your uncle. It's not easy for him to save up some private money."
"Brother, what are you saying? Who said it's not easy for me to save some private money?"
"Is it easy? I remember when you came back, you asked your wife for money to buy cigarettes!"
Hearing what Mr. Li said, Ye Bin was speechless.
There was no way, because on the day he and his wife came back, Li's father happened to be taking a walk in Longguangdi.
When Ye Bin was buying cigarettes in Longguangdi, he was seen by Li's father.
"Brother, it's just that I didn't bring my cell phone." Ye Bin said stubbornly.
Dad Li curled his lips and said nothing more.
Although the two are cousins, there is a twenty-year age difference between them.
You have to know that Ye Bin is only two years older than Li Le’s older brother Li Qiang.
So for some things, Dad Li would just stop at the point and not say anything too harsh. But for Ye Bin, who is dominated by his wife, sometimes he still has to say what needs to be said.
This is not to say that being henpecked is bad. Dad Li is also afraid of Mom Li, who is also henpecked. But when it comes to money, Mom Li never cares.
When your wife controls your finances, sometimes you don't have the ability to be filial to her even if you want to.
This is also the reason why Dad Li chose him. Now it’s okay because my brother-in-law and aunt are still young.
A few more years later!
"Okay, he is still young, just wait a little longer." The old lady said at this time.
"Mom, you're still young! You're already thirty."
"Shut up." The old lady said with her eyes wide open.
"Oh!" Dad Li didn't dare to say anything.
From beginning to end, the brother-in-law didn't say a word, not because he didn't want to say anything, but because he didn't know how to say it.
He was very clear about Ye Bin's situation, but because he was clear about it, he didn't know how to say it.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, come and smoke."
Li Le returned the hard Zhonghua cigarette Ye Bin gave him, and then took out a box of Zhonghua Shenlong from his pocket. Looking at the cigarette in Li Le's hand, Li's father said speechlessly: "You little brat, you don't know how to save money at all, you are the kind of person who needs supervision."
There's no way, Dad Li knows exactly how much Li Le's cigarettes cost.
A pack of cigarettes costs 50,000 yuan! Many people working in large companies may not even earn that much in a month.
Let’s just talk about Ye Bin, who joined the company right after graduating from university. He has been working there for so many years, and now only makes a little over 20,000 yuan a month.
And you have to rent a house, and eat and drink. After deducting these, there is only a little over 10,000 yuan left per month at most.
In other words, Li Le's pack of cigarettes is equivalent to Ye Bin's three months' income.
Li Le handed one to each person and said, "I can't help it. I'm used to it and can't smoke anything else."
"you……"
"Okay, you are the one who is troublesome. Since he can smoke, he can make money." The old man said at this time.
"Uh! Okay!" Dad Li nodded.
Come to think of it! Li Le is really good at making money now.
Let's talk about the villa we live in now! Including the lake outside, the total cost is almost 200 million.
This is two hundred million!
To be honest, he worked for most of his life and only bought a house for each of his three children.
And this is because houses were cheaper before. To be honest, he really can't afford it if it were sold at today's prices.
As for Li Le, he easily makes hundreds of millions. If you count like that, smoking cigarettes that cost tens of thousands of yuan a pack may not be a big deal.
At this time, the old man said again: "Remember, if you can spend money, you can make money. If you can't even spend money, how can you expect him to make money?"
After saying this, the old man turned to look at Li's father and said, "You spent a lot of money when you were young! The money I earned from my own business was not enough for you to spend, and I even gave you a lot.
When it comes to spending money, there are really few people who can compare to you. It was only since you were in your thirties that you stopped spending recklessly and started saving money."
The old man's words made Mr. Li lose face, but what the old man said was true.
The son-in-law said, "Brother, you are right. I know this very well. To be honest, when it comes to making money, no one in our family can make more money than him."
"Uncle-in-law, this is a bit unkind of you!" said Dad Li.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Hearing him say this, Li's father was also helpless! Because he was not wrong!
"Come here, brother-in-law, let me light it for you." Li Le quickly took out a lighter and lit the cigarette for his brother-in-law.
Li Le had just put down the lighter after lighting the cigarette when Ye Wei picked it up and said, "Hey, this lighter looks pretty high-end."
"Not bad." Li Le nodded.
"How much did you buy it for?" Ye Wei asked after opening it and trying it.
Li Le took a puff of his cigarette and said, "It's not much money, maybe 100 million!"
"How much...how much?" Dad Li looked at Li Le and asked.
Everyone heard it, but Ye Wei and Ye Bin thought Li Le was joking and didn't take it seriously at all.
Not to mention Ye Wei and Ye Bin, even the brother-in-law is the same.
But Li's father was different! Because he knew very well that what Li Le said was absolutely true.
He knew from several people that Li Le didn't take money seriously at all.
For example, he went to Shenzhen and spent hundreds of millions to buy two villas there.
Moreover, he no longer cared about the house after buying it, even the decoration was left to Li Qiang.
He also knew some things about the imperial capital.
In addition, building this house also cost nearly 200 million yuan.
This is a rural area! Who would spend over 200 million yuan to build a house in the countryside?
Because it is different here from the city. In the city, houses are commodities, but in the countryside, houses are "real estate."
The reason why an illiquid property is valuable is because you live in it. If you don’t live in it anymore and want to sell it to someone else, basically forget it.
Before Li Le could say anything, he heard his father yell, "You spend hundreds of millions on a lighter, you spend hundreds of millions."
"Dad, you don't understand. This is an investment."
"Investment, investment, what the hell, even a lighter can be invested? You are a spendthrift."
"Dad, you are wrong. Ordinary lighters are certainly not worth investing in, but this one is."
"Xiao Le, does this lighter really cost 100 million?" Ye Wei asked in surprise.
"Yeah!" Li Le nodded.
Seeing Li Le nod, Ye Wei quickly put down the lighter and said, "My goodness, a lighter costs 100 million, what kind of lighter is this?"
"Uncle, lighters are like watches. Ordinary ones are of course not valuable and have no investment value, but good ones can be invested in."
After saying that, he showed the watch on his wrist and said, "See my watch?"
"Yeah!" Ye Wei nodded.
“My watch is called Patek Philippe 1518. In the s and s, this watch only cost a few hundred yuan.
When I bought it in April or May, it was 80 million. Do you know how much it is now? "
"How much? Is it worth 100 million?"
Li Le shook his head.
"How much is that worth?"
Li Le said calmly: "It is now worth 120 million, and there is no place to buy it."
"Ah! It's worth so much money?" Ye Wei felt incredible.
Yes, in order to keep a low profile, Li Le did not wear the 6300A, but the 1518, because it did not look that new.
"Of course. And you can't buy it with 120 million. Let's put it this way. If I want to sell it, I can sell it at any time. It may be worth more than 120 million."
"No way, it's just a watch, is it really worth so much money?"
"Of course. The same goes for this lighter. Let's put it this way! I'll use it for ten or twenty years, and when I sell it, it will definitely be much more expensive than it is now."
Hearing what Li Le said, Ye Wei nodded and said, "I knew that watches could appreciate in value, but I didn't expect it to appreciate so much."
"Uncle, the ones you mentioned are relatively common, and there is not much room for appreciation, so there is no need to buy them."
Yes, generally speaking, better watches can appreciate in value, but the room for appreciation is very small.
The ones with the greatest potential for appreciation are those with relatively small production volumes and those with limited editions.
For the more popular ones, a piece is produced in tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of pieces. Even if it appreciates in value, how much can it appreciate?
"Well! I am ignorant."
"Son, let me see your watch." Dad Li said at this time.
"Oh!" Li Le took off his watch and handed it over.
Dad Li took it in his hand and looked at it, but couldn't see anything different, so he put it on his wrist directly.
"This watch looks nice. I wear it. You can wear this one!" Dad Li said as he handed over the watch he had just taken off.
Mr. Li’s watch is also a Patek Philippe, and it is worth more than two million yuan. It was bought for him by Li Le when he came back last time.
"No, you should keep it for yourself! I have a lot of watches, I can just wear another one later."
"Are there a lot? Are they all so valuable?" asked Li's father.
"Dad, how is this possible?" Li Le shook his head.
"Isn't it? I..."
Before Li's father finished speaking, Li Le said, "There are only a few dollars more valuable than this." (End of this chapter)
