138. Giants and Second Generation

When he entered the resort, Jin Xiao frowned slightly.

Because he found that the standard of this resort was really not good.

In the ten o'clock in An Yao and his, the resort wanted to be unqualified just at the first point of the scenery. Then all kinds of services could not keep up. When they entered the door, the security guards were lazy and when they entered the parking lot, no one came to greet them. After entering the main building of the resort, a waiter came to greet them, and his face was full of smiles, but no one could see that smile.

Overall, this resort is really not good. It is not large in scale, has poor scenery and poor service. I don’t know how this resort persists.

Before they arrived, Zhang Shubo had called his friend to notify him, but when Jin Xiao and the others entered the main building, the man did not show up.

Zhang Shubo's face looked a little bad, and he made several calls in succession, and the other party appeared lazily in front of Jin Xiao and others.

"Shubo, is this your classmate?"

This man had a big belly and his face was full of contempt.

"Zhu Bingrong, what do you mean?"

Zhang Shubo's face became even more ugly.

"What does it mean? What are you?"

The fat man named Zhu Bingrong looked at Zhang Shubo with surprise.

"You know what I mean. These are my classmates and I came at your invitation. We have been here for almost half a time, and we don't even have a glass of water. You haven't shown up until now. What do you mean? "

Zhang Shubo was very angry.

He was very favored by three roommates in the dormitory. After two months of getting along, he got along well with these classmates in his class.

Although Zhu Bingrong is his friend, he is actually just a friend of drinking and meat. If the relationship is really strong, it is definitely not up to date. The other party’s family is similar to his family, so it is considered a matchmaking family, and it is a good friend. But now, as a friend, Zhu Bingrong has made him lose face in front of his classmates, especially in front of Jin Xiao. How can he tolerate it?

He has become well-educated without slandering.

"whispering sound--"

But when he finished speaking, Zhu Bingrong opposite him had no guilt at all. Instead, he sneered, "Are you just some classmates? You can just treat yourself? If I have any, I won't be able to do it first."

Zhu Bingrong was actually ready to leave like this.

"Zhu Bingrong! You, are you still treating me as a friend?"

"Of course I treat you as a friend, but I have important things here. I have invited Mr. Zhang to visit me today. If you have the courage, go find Mr. Zhang and see how he answers you."

Zhu Bingrong sneered and said slowly.

"Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Shubo was stunned, his face becoming more and more ugly.

"Which Zhang is yours?"

"Who else can you have? That Young Master Zhang. Anyway, I'll go with Young Master Zhang first. Please greet your classmates yourself."

After that, I no longer give Zhang Shubo the chance to speak, so I turned around and walked away.

After he left, a group of classmates scolded this person with one word and another.

Zhang Shubo stood there, staring at the direction where Zhu Bingrong left without moving, and said nothing for a long time.

Jin Xiao walked over and patted Zhang Shubo on the shoulder.

"Well, what's going on with this Mr. Zhang?"

Judging from Zhu Bingrong's appearance, he knew that Mr. Zhang must be not simple, but he was also a little curious about how difficult it was.

Zhang Shubo took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

"I'm sorry, I'll let you guys laugh at it."

"We can understand what this is. You can see first. What does Mr. Zhang mean?"

"What else can I do... Although his surname is Zhang, it has nothing to do with me, or we are a little bit unbearable. This person is called Zhang Zicheng. He actually has no ability, but his family is not simple. He is considered the top wealthy family in Pengcheng."

"oh?"

Jin Xiao was really surprised when he heard this.

In today's society, no one who can be called a top wealthy family is simple.

What is a wealthy family?

We can often hear about this wealthy family.

We can often hear about family of scholars, medical families, and music families. So what exactly is a "family"?

In "Mencius", aristocratic families refer to families of wealth and famous families of nobles from generation to generation.

Taking the ancient upper class as an example, it is generally divided into three levels:

The first level is both rich and noble. This is the noble among the nobles, and both wealth and position are important.

The second level is not rich but noble. Although it is already on the decline in economics, its status is still there and can still enjoy the respect it deserves in social life.

The third level is only rich but not noble. That is, the "nova" in the legend, because of its lack of foundation, it will be discerning from wealthy families.

What can be called a "family family" refers only to the first two levels. As for the outbreak clan, even if the family is rich, it is not worthy of the word "expensive".

Those who accompany aristocratic families are usually "rich families".

So what does a real "wealthy family" look like?

The best example is from the most familiar "Dream of Red Mansions".

Chapter 53 "Ningguo Mansion's New Year's Eve sacrifice to the ancestral hall, Rongguo Mansion's Lantern Festival Banquet" describes how exquisitely the Jia Mansion's New Year's money was distributed during the New Year: 220 croquettes were cast with 153 taels of broken gold, including plum blossoms, crabapple style, pen ingots Ruyi, Babao Lianchun, etc.

The etiquette was also quite complicated when worshiping the ancestral temple: whenever a dish came, it would first go to Yimen and then pass it to Jia Jing again. Jia Jing passed it to Jia Rong, Jia Rong passed it to his wife, and then to Fengjie, Youshi, etc. When he arrived at the altar, he passed it to Mrs. Wang, and then passed it to Mrs. Wang, and then it was handed over to Jia Mu. Finally, it was put on the altar by Mrs. Jia Mu. After the offerings were placed, Mrs. Jia took incense and bowed. At this time, everyone in the Jia family knelt down.

In the book, if you kneel like this, you would "put five halls, three halls to hold the building, the eaves of the inner and outer corridors, the steps up and down, and the two elixirs, flowers are clustered with no gaps." It can be imagined that the scene must be spectacular.

The vast Ningrong Mansions, the vigorous clan momentum, and every part of life cannot lose the aristocratic style. This is the "speciality" of the aristocrats.

But strictly speaking, the Jia family could only be considered the second-class in the upper class.

As Mrs. Wang said to Fengjie: "Now you sisters live better than those maids from wealthy families. Your Lin Meimei's mother was the real daughter-in-law back then."

The real noble sister Lin Daiyu, who was born in a scholarly family, has been a master of celebrating food for generations. This is a rare honor. Her aloofness and pickiness are her reasons for her, and she has always had a sense of glory of identity.

Although the noble character of the Jia family is still there, the wealth has gradually declined and has become a second-class person, but the centipede insect died without being stiff.

Also in the family, Leng Erlang Liu Xianglian was also in a down-and-out family. Although his hands were gone, outsiders still respected him "Second Master Liu", just because Liu Xianglian was originally a "child of aristocratic family", and the afterglow of his ancestors was enough for him to shine for a lifetime. At the same time, although he had feelings for You Sanjie in Ningguo Mansion, he also regretted the marriage because he was worried about the muddy courtyard and was afraid of rumors. It can be seen that the arrogance of the noble children was deeply rooted.

Next, Xue Baochai's family, who is in the third level of the upper class, was the daughter of a businessman. She always kept her ancestors' affairs on her face, "Our ancestors were also scholars." She was afraid that others would misunderstand her family education. This was because merchants could only be classified as "outbreak". In ancient society, they despised merchants. They only had money and could buy jewelry and silk, but they could not buy status and honor. It was also because of Baochai's origin, even if she was "aware of the world but not the world", she would not be loved by Mu Jia.

Some people may refute that Jia Mu often praises Baochai for being thoughtful and sensible, but this is a scene and it is not very true. The real attitude should be seen from the details.

For example, when Jia Mu celebrated Xue Baochai's birthday, it was more of a kind of courtesy. Just like Sister Feng: Since she was happy to be lively, she would not have to spend a few taels of taels of money by herself. She found the bad twenty taels of silver to serve as the host, and she even asked me to pay for it. It was okay if I couldn't take it out, gold, silver, round, flat, crushed the bottom of the box, but just lecked us... This is enough wine? enough playful?

It can be seen that Jia Mu gave Xue Baochai a birthday, which was for Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue. Twenty taels of silver were the rituals that girls valued very much. In a wealthy family like them, there were not many, and they were even a little shabby. "It was neither enough to drink nor enough to play". Therefore, Jia Mu was not very dedicated to Xue Baochai's birthday. The reason why she took out twenty taels of silver was just to have the intention, and she didn't want to fall into the words of Mrs. Wang and her relative Aunt Xue, that's all.

As a representative of the wealthy family at that time, Jia Mu was concerned about family background. She looked for her loved ones for her loved Sun Baoyu. The first sentence was first asked: How is she? What is her foundation?

The "foundation" in the eyes of the nobles is the social popularity accumulated from generation to generation. What aristocrats value most is not the word "rich", but the word "expensive". "Money" cannot replace the rank of identity and culture.

In modern society, the same is true for "wealthy families". It is not enough to have money. A real wealthy family must be a family that has a background and has the ability to influence policies to a certain extent. Only such families are qualified to be called wealthy families, and sometimes they are involved in certain underground forces. However, this situation is rare in China, but it is not uncommon for foreign countries.

However, although wealthy families are praise words, they are often connected with another word that is derogatory, that is, "second generation".

In modern society, we often say that we praise others for being awesome, and they will be tall, rich and handsome, but the term rich second generation cannot be used by anyone. Don’t demonize the “rich second generation”.

When the "poor second generation" encounters the "rich second generation", the "poor second generation" will always occupy the high ground of moral public opinion. A hundred years ago, there was an old saying in the West: wealth is the burden of morality. They are labeled: "a beating generation", "a brain-dead generation", "a generation that needs spiritual redemption"... The "a second generation" is being synthesized like never before.

The general view of the melon-eating crowd: Be arrogant when you have money, this is absolutely true.

In the eyes of the public and the media, the second generation of rich people is an excellent negative news provider. But if you think about it carefully, how do the money of the rich people come from? If you are cautious, you earn it from one cent, how can those rich people watch their children so arrogant while they are alive? How can they not know how to teach their children to be cautious in their family? In the eyes of most people who are eating melons, the second generation of rich people is a must, and it feels strange to have a good person...

The general view of the melon-eating crowd: children from rich families bully others and are scoundrels.

"Rich Second Generation" has almost become synonymous with playboys. It even has a stronger derogatory meaning than the latter. Because the rich man killed someone, he happened to be severely punished, and the perpetrator's indifference to human life and contempt for the law have made public opinion one side turn to the unfavorable side of the rich second generation.

Actually, the question is, do you really understand the term rich second generation? What is the rich second generation in your mind?

"Rich Second Generation" can be divided into several general categories:

Playboys are prodigal, such as my father's name is XX, my father Li XX, etc.

Originally, this kind of scene is very common among the "rich second generation", accounting for about half. Many private entrepreneurs have suffered a lot in their hard work and entrepreneurship, but they are unwilling to let their descendants suffer. Life conditions are too good, and the family business that their parents have accumulated is very limited. Because these "rich second generations" who are halfway through, they usually do not want to make progress and live in vain. Many of their studies have not been completed, and most of their businesses have gone bankrupt. Because they can never understand the life at the grassroots level, they often make some weird words like "Why not eat meat minced". Because they are pampered, this situation has been caused. They have grown up in honeypots and become lazy and let these second generations enjoy the victory.

Knowledge success type.

Their parents realized that wealth is not only three generations. Therefore, the development of the company is not limited to simple inheritance, but should be inherited by civilization. Therefore, they attach great importance to the teaching of future generations. These children also cherish the family business that their parents work hard, study hard, and continue to succeed. These successful people account for about 20 to 30% of the "rich second generation". Some of the "rich second generation" are not limited to the traditional professions of their parents. For example, a husband of the whole nation is devoted to new professions with high technological content, such as Internet industry, software development, advertising media, etc.

Father and son are declining.

This generation has experienced great ups and downs. Because the money came too quickly during that special period of his parents. The situation encountered by the continuous transformation and improvement of the market economic system was completely different from the original one. They did not have the qualifications to slow down their knowledge and were at a disadvantage in future market competition. Before they could even take the title of "rich second generation" on the stage, they became commoners.

Let it go.

The first and second generation gold diggers in the entrepreneurial wave, although they made some money, they were not very capable, and they were more wealthy than ordinary people. Is it easy for them to stay at home if they make a fortune? They usually develop steadily and have no high demands for their descendants. In this kind of tepid, most of their children have relatively successful studies because of their good environment and conditions. They can start a business and stay at the business. Compared with real rich people, the plan will not be very large, but they are also sufficient to be based in the middle and upper class of society.

Jin Xiao hasn't seen too many rich second-generations, but as far as he has seen so far, there are indeed some good and bad things. In short, it's still much better.

However, Zhu Bingrong had performed very badly before, but Zhang Zicheng didn't know what he looked like.
