Rebirth: My dad is too obedient

Chapter 92 Feeling guilty
While a "celebration banquet" was being held here, a group of debt collectors were still banging on the door and cursing at the factory next door.

The words "Pay your debts" were painted in red paint on the wall at the entrance of the factory.

The iron gate was locked tightly. Several sturdy men were holding bricks and wooden sticks, knocking on the iron gate and cursing at people inside.

"Xu Zhihai, come out here and stop being a coward!"

"It is only natural to pay back debts! Don't force us to resort to other means!"

……

Third uncle Xu Zhihai was not in the factory.

But at this moment, in the room at the backyard of the factory, there were four people with sad faces sitting.

Aunt Xu Zhiyan and uncle, uncle Xu Zhishan and son Xu Xin.

I just heard about the incident at the machinery factory two days ago, and I didn't expect it to spread here so soon.

The third brother Xu Zhihai’s debt problem broke out almost instantly.

In fact, before taking the order from the machinery factory, Xu Zhihai's factory had a very high debt ratio.

He wanted to move up a ladder with the orders from the machinery factory, but who could have expected that this state-owned machinery factory, which had been in operation for decades, would suddenly face the risk of bankruptcy.

When Xu Zhihai borrowed money, he used the name of the machinery factory's winning bid. Now that the machinery factory has run into problems, several creditors are naturally afraid that they will not be able to get back the money they lent, so they came to collect the debt.

At this moment, Xu Zhihai had no idea where he was hiding from his debts...

Today, my aunt Xu Zhiyan and my uncle Xu Zhishan came to the factory to pack up their things, but they happened to run into debt collectors blocking the door.

Fortunately, I locked the door when I entered, so the debt collectors couldn't get in.

When the other party started to break down the door, several people went to put up two big locks.

But now the gate is blocked and I dare not go out. I can only stay in this factory for now.

Uncle Xu Zhishan was sitting on a small stool, smoking a pipe and saying nothing.

His son Xu Xin stood behind him. Although he was almost thirty years old, he looked terrified and at a loss when something happened.

Aunt Xu Zhiyan and uncle sat side by side.

The sounds of banging on the door and cursing continued to come from outside. Xu Zhiyan glanced outside the door from time to time, with fear on her face.

Xu Zhiyan looked at her elder brother Xu Zhishan and said:

"Brother, what should we do? Why are these people cursing for so long and still not leaving?"

Xu Zhishan: "Just fight them. There is no other way."

Xu Zhiyan thought for a moment:

"Do you want to give my second brother a call? I just heard firecrackers being set off in the factory next door. I think my second brother is probably in the factory."

Xu Xin said hurriedly: "Yes, let's call Second Uncle! Second Uncle will definitely have a way to rescue us!"

Xu Zhishan took a puff of his pipe and said in a deep voice:
"How can we have the nerve to call the second brother?!

When the second brother wanted to close the factory to grow seedlings, we all took the money and voluntarily withdrew.

Now that I've run into trouble, I'm still thinking about asking my second brother to help...

Even though I am his biological brother, I can't lose face like this!"

Xu Zhiyan sighed deeply:

"If I had known earlier, I should have followed my second brother to work on the seedlings...

I heard that my second brother has won bids for several highway projects in a row.

In addition to the several plots of land we leased on the North Mountain, we also leased several plots of land in our town.

Not only is his nursery company doing well, but it’s doing better than the original foundry…”

The uncle at the side said:

“We are all short-sighted, but my second brother has a long-term vision.

It seems that it was a very correct decision for him to close the foundry parts factory despite all the advice.

Otherwise, my second brother would be in big trouble now!"

Xu Zhishan finished smoking a pot of dry tobacco, coughed lightly and said:

“When the second brother lost the order from the machinery factory, I thought he was doomed.

He said he wanted to plant seedlings, but I, his elder brother, said that this had no future..."

He knocked his pipe against the sole of his shoe, sighed and said, "Among us brothers, the second one has always been the most capable.

As the elder brother, I should have given in long ago and listened to him long ago..."

As he said this, a hint of loneliness appeared in Xu Zhishan's eyes.

Xu Zhiyan comforted:

"Brother, don't say that. Our parents passed away early, and you raised us brothers and sisters."

Xu Zhishan waved his hand:
"Brother, I really have no ability...

I can't do anything except farming. When I was young, I could use my arms to do something strong, but now I have lost that strength.

The second one is the best, he can see farther than us and walk wider than us...

When I worked as a helper in his foundry, I, as his older brother, felt a little uncomfortable.

While taking the second brother's money, he spoke in a sarcastic tone and made all sorts of remarks.

I was the first one to stop the second child from working on the nursery, and I also went to persuade the fourth child to quit every day...

I didn't realize these things at first, until Xu Chen said a few words that day, and then I understood.

As the eldest brother, I also feel ashamed..."

Xu Zhiyan's eyes turned red and she wiped away her tears:

"Brother, I feel guilty too.

We all used to work in the fields, and it was my second brother who brought us out.

Later, when we made money by sand-casting parts, my second brother was never vague about giving us money.

If it weren’t for my second brother, how could the two-story house at home be built?
But when my second brother lost the order from the machinery factory, not only did our two families not share the hardships with him, we also took his money and turned away.

You can imagine how miserable my second brother felt at that time...

My second and fourth brothers rushed to the North Mountain to plant seedlings. I said a lot of sarcastic things behind their backs, and I never hoped that my second brother would have a good life...

When I think about these things, I feel so sorry for my second brother!"

Xu Zhishan looked outside the house and said:
“The second oldest is very capable, and his boy Xu Chen is also very capable.

In the future, our Xu family will all depend on these father and son to have a bright future."

As he said this, he couldn't help but glance at his son Xu Xin beside him.

Xu Xin stood there with his huge body, a hint of shame on his face.

Xu Zhiyan suddenly smiled again:
“I heard from my fourth sister-in-law that it was Xu Chen who told my second brother about this seedling idea.

The last time the fourth brother was beaten, Xiaochen actually ran to Beishan to settle the matter, which was unexpected.

I am increasingly unable to understand this nephew!"

Xu Zhishan: "Maybe Xu Chen will be more capable than his father in the future!"

……

Xu Xin frowned and said:

"Dad, Third Uncle's factory is definitely going to continue. Should we look for Second Uncle and follow him in the future?"

Xu Zhishan picked up the pipe and hit his son's leg with it.

Xu Xin cried out in pain and took a step back with a look of grievance.

"You useless thing!

How can we still have the face to talk to the second brother...

You are almost thirty years old, and you just think about relying on this and that every day!

Look at Xu Chen, how capable is he at such a young age? !
He is about to be admitted to a good university. He is the first college student in our Xu family.

They are all children of our Xu family, why is there such a big difference between them? "

Xu Xin shrank back and dared not say a word.

Xu Zhiyan looked into the yard and suddenly said:

"There seems to be no movement outside. Have they left?"
