Chapter 87: Giving You a Car
When Wu Hao arrived at the city bus station, his aunt's family of five had already been there for a while. After contacting them over the phone, Wu Hao quickly found his aunt's family and had a brief conversation before they all got into the car.
Although there were four adults in his aunt's family and Wu Hao's young nephew, the seating in the car was a bit tight. Fortunately, the backseat of Wu Hao's car was spacious enough, accommodating three people and a child without feeling crowded.
Shortly after getting in the car, Wu Hao's cousin, Liu Qin, couldn't help but curiously ask him, "Cousin, this car must be expensive, right?"
Liu Qin was Wu Hao's aunt's only daughter. She got married a few years ago and now had a child of around four years old. Although she didn't know much about cars, she recognized the emblem of a luxury brand. Seeing Wu Hao picking them up in such a luxurious car naturally sparked her curiosity and surprise.
Even months ago, through phone conversations with Wu Hao's parents, they had learned that the financial situation at Wu Hao's ho had improved. Not only had they repaid the ten thousand yuan they owed to their aunt's family, but Wu Hao's parents had also given an additional one hundred thousand yuan as interest and gratitude for the borrowed money.
Initially, Wu Hao's parents had borrowed money from his aunt's family mainly to support Wu Hao and his sister Wu Xiaoxiao's education. In fact, the financial situation in his aunt's family was only average, and they couldn't afford to lend out a large sum of money. Of course, when it cos to borrowing money among relatives, there's usually no discussion of interest or repaynt. If interest were involved, then they wouldn't be considered true relatives.
However, a few months ago when Wu Hao gave his parents several million yuan, they felt that their family was now considered wealthy, so they decided to give an extra 100,000 yuan.
The reason Wu Hao's parents eagerly invited his aunt's family to co back this ti was twofold. Firstly, they wanted to gather together during the Lunar New Year and secondly, to pay respects to their ancestors.
At this mont, while driving, Wu Hao casually smiled in response to his cousin's question, Liu Qin. He said, "Cousin, I don't actually have that much money! If you like, I can give you and your husband a car as well."
Although this car was worth nearly 2 million yuan, money was sothing that ca easily to Wu Hao. Even if he were to give his aunt's family several million yuan in one go, it would be a piece of cake for him.
Because Wu Hao's aunt was his father's only direct relative of the sa generation, and they had lent a helping hand when their family was financially struggling before, now that he had the ability, it was only natural for him to help his relatives and friends.
However, Zhang Weiming, Liu Qin's husband sitting beside her, was taken aback by Wu Hao's words while driving ahead. He restrained himself from speaking out and said, "Cousin, are you joking? I actually have so knowledge about cars. This car of yours should be a rcedes-Benz G500. The whole package, including the paperwork, would cost nearly 2 million yuan. Are you really going to give your cousin a car?"
Zhang Weiming didn't ntion receiving anything from Wu Hao. After all, Wu Hao and his cousin's family were their true relatives. If Wu Hao really gave the car to his cousin, Zhang Weiming would likely be the one driving it. Actually, Zhang Weiming had wanted to buy a car for himself for a long ti. However, both he and Liu Qin were ordinary laborers, and they were also saving money to buy a house in the county. So, buying a car had naturally been put on hold compared to buying a house.
As for buying a house, with the additional 100,000 yuan given by Wu Hao's parents a few months ago, plus another 200,000 yuan they had borrowed for his aunt's family, the house matter had already been resolved. They were buying a house in a small county, and spending around 300,000 yuan, including renovation costs, was already considered good.
At this mont, Wu Hao heard the uncertain inquiry from his cousin's husband, Zhang Weiming. He directly smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, I'm not joking. Let's do this: I'll transfer the money for buying a car directly to my cousin's account. When you go back, you can buy whichever type of car you like." Based on the recent interaction and observation, Wu Hao noticed that his cousin and her husband had a good relationship, and it seed like his cousin held a dominant position in the family. So, even if he gave money directly, it would naturally be for his cousin.
"Xiaohao, are you serious?" Liu Qin, Wu Hao's cousin, was a bit stunned upon hearing this. Although they knew that Wu Hao's family was well-off now, they didn't have a clear idea of how much money they had. But now, Wu Hao casually ntioned wanting to give her a car worth nearly 2 million yuan and even giving her the cash to buy it herself.
Such generosity would require an imnse amount of wealth to achieve! At this mont, not only Liu Qin but also Wu Hao's aunt and uncle wore expressions of astonishnt.
"Cousin, of course I'm serious. Send
your account number later!" Wu Hao said.
"Wow! Cousin, it looks like you've struck it rich! Since that's the case, I'll bask in your glory! I'll also go get my driver's license during the New Year. Actually, I've wanted to get my driver's license for a long ti," Liu Qin exclaid upon hearing this, knowing that Wu Hao wasn't joking. She imdiately beca excited.
Not only her, but Liu Weiming sitting next to her also wore a delighted expression. At the sa ti, he silently thought to himself that he should treat his wife, Liu Qin, better in the future. After all, Liu Qin and his aunt were the only ones who had a genuine blood relationship with Wu Hao. If Liu Qin divorced Wu Hao, they would naturally lose that connection with him.
However, this issue was nonexistent for him, as he always listened to Liu Qin at ho. Perhaps this was due to their personalities!
Although there is a saying that money corrupts n, if that money is in the hands of a woman, the likelihood of corruption becos even smaller.
In this way, during the continuous conversation on the way, and with the luck of not encountering any traffic jams today, Wu Hao was able to bring his aunt's family back to the villa after just over an hour's drive.
Upon seeing the appearance of Wu Hao's new ho, his aunt, cousin, and cousin's husband, Liu Weiming, were naturally shocked. Although they had learned through their conversation with Wu Hao in the car that he had made a considerable amount of money through stock trading, they only had a rough guess in their minds.
And now, seeing that Wu Hao had actually built such a luxurious villa in their hotown, their speculations couldn't help but rise even higher. After all, even soone who didn't understand much about houses could tell that a villa of this scale was not cheap. Wu Hao's villa could be considered a small estate.
