I practice martial arts by adding skill points in modern city-Chapter 611: 【196】The grand finale is both an ending and a brand-new beginning

The new year is approaching, and many gatherings are inevitably starting to take place.

Like gatherings with friends, friends gatherings, company annual meetings...

Even for Wang Longhu, as long as he's in his hometown, he can't escape these social obligations.

When he received a voice message from Ye Yuanpei via Green Bubble, Wang Longhu knew something was up.

Before and after the New Year, those who like organizing gatherings will put together some local friends they're on good terms with for a meal to connect.

Along the way, everyone chats about their work and income for the year, which is just the same old stuff.

Previously, Wang Longhu would return to Dong County mysteriously, and no one would know he was back, so he wasn't invited to these gatherings.

But this year is different, Ye Yuanpei knows that Wang Longhu has returned and plans to develop in Dong County.

"Wang Longhu, come to Yixiang Pavilion for dinner tonight. I've called several old classmates for a get-together,"

Ye Yuanpei said with a hearty laugh.

According to what Wang Longhu learned after returning to Dong County, since he helped Ye Yuanpei rescue his cousin Jin Zhihao last time...

Ye Yuanpei stopped his shady business and used his saved money to open a car wash.

Now, the business is doing quite well, and life is comfortable.

Lin Haitao, on the other hand, drives his Tesla Model 3 and works as a computer maintenance administrator at a high school in Oujiangkou.

He goes to work at 8 AM, finishes at 3 PM, and life is rather comfortable.

He's either smoking and chatting with semi-retired teachers in the office or watching the young girls in school.

While heading back to Dong County after work, he can also do DD carpool, picking up a few passengers for some extra income.

"Alright," Wang Longhu agreed.

During the time back in Dong County, he bought twenty apartments in Haiyue City and over a hundred storefronts in the new downtown.

These can be rented out to others, and the rental income can be used by his parents for daily expenses.

Besides this, Wang Longhu also transferred ten million to his parents, not because he's stingy.

It's just that since his parents are in their fifties, if he transfers billions to them, they wouldn't know where to spend it.

There's a chance they might become the center of attention in Dong County, leading to more troublesome situations such as scams or loans.

This ten million is for his parents to open a large supermarket in Dong County for stable retirement.

If someone has money, they should have something to do. Otherwise, daily life can become tedious.

Having this reassurance sorted, Wang Longhu felt much more at ease. This way, when he goes to Shambhala after the New Year, he wouldn't have to worry about his parents' well-being.

As for not teaching his parents how to cultivate Cell Energy, it's purely because Wang Longhu discovered...

After forty, human cells lose their ability to absorb externally. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Meaning before forty, is the time for Cell Energy cultivation. Starting at sixteen or thirty-nine, the difference lies in fast and abundant absorption...

or slow and scarce absorption.

And after forty, cultivation becomes impossible, as cosmic energy cannot be guided into the body.

No matter how one trains, it's just a waste of time.

Understanding this situation, Wang Longhu was relieved.

Accompanying his parents through their remaining years, making sure they lead a happy, healthy life, is more important than anything.

"At this classmates' gathering, should I show off or not?"

Looking at the Rolls-Royce key in hand, Wang Longhu mused thoughtfully.

After becoming successful, he hasn't shown off or flaunted in front of anyone.

Reflecting on his year of martial arts training, it's quite pure, always striving to reach the pinnacle of the Martial Arts path.

Now, it's time to show the grandeur of being a Planet Level powerhouse while returning home in glory.

...

Night falls.

Yixiang Pavilion has been the best hotel in Dong County for the past five years, but with the newly built Nanyang International Hotel, constructed solely to international five-star standards.

Yixiang Pavilion's prestige has been diminished, and with its establishment over a decade ago, the decor appears outdated.

So now, many local young couples and companies in Dong County choose Nanyang International Hotel for weddings or team-building annual meetings for better prestige.

But from a practical standpoint, classmates' gatherings around the New Year are still better held at Yixiang Pavilion.

When a Rolls-Royce Cullinan passed in front of Yixiang Pavilion, the raised Spirit of Ecstasy emblem and the Parthenon Temple-style grille immediately caught the attention of all passersby.

Why the likes of BBA and Porsche, in terms of prestige, will never compare to Rolls-Royce.

It's because Rolls-Royce products never go down-market.

You'd say BBA cars are premium, sure they have multimillion-dollar models, but you can't overlook that BBA also has models like the A180, 1 Series, A3 costing just tens of thousands.

It's like buying a car with a badge, and in terms of driving experience, these cars don't match domestic ones.

Therefore, in today's highly developed video era, BBA's prestige isn't as high.

Even AMG, M series, RS series, driving them on the road, besides youngsters, doesn't catch anyone's eye.

To those unfamiliar with cars, Mercedes S-Class and C-Class look no different, after all, they share the same three-pointed star badge.
