Zhutian: Since I was a child, I have been happy to be a father

Donghai Wholesale Market.

Xun Jianxiang took two lunch boxes and walked into the office.

When Yang Xun looked up and saw it, he felt hungry too.

The two of them chatted while eating.

Yang Xun drank a mouthful of soup and asked tentatively:

"Brother Daxun, what did you talk about with Brother Xiaohui last night? Can you tell me about it? Let me learn more."

Xun Jianxiang went back last night, and took advantage of being drunk to not talk to him.

I slept all morning today and just came now.

Xun Jianxiang smiled and said, "An old friend of mine came to Donghai, and Song Yunhui asked me to go over and chat with her."

old friend?
Yang Xun was very curious, but with his status, he was not qualified to get to the bottom of some things.

Insisting on asking will only make people annoyed.

So he didn't ask any more questions, but changed the subject and said with a sad face:

"Business has been good recently, but I have to pay back a debt of 600,000 yuan, plus 120,000 yuan in interest. Oh, I have to pay back the money before it's even warm. It's so difficult! So difficult!"

This money needs to be returned to Xiao Ran.

Xun Jianxiang advised, "You'd better pay it back sooner rather than later! A few months' interest will cost you 120,000 yuan. Can you still use this money?"

With such high interest rates, if the market hadn't been revitalized, Yang Xun would have packed up and returned home by now.

In fact, Yang Xun’s risk appetite is very aggressive, and he relies on luck in almost every major investment. If it weren’t for his halo as the protagonist, he would have failed so badly that even his mother wouldn’t have recognized him.

Yang Xun explained with a bitter face: "Brother Daxun, don't get me wrong. I will definitely return the money to Xiao Ran when the time comes. What I am worried about is how to get the order from Donghai Factory and increase revenue without affecting or troubling Brother Xiaohui."

When Xun Jianxiang heard this, he knew why he was called "Big Brother Xun", so he put down his chopsticks and asked with interest: "What are you going to do? Go ask him for help?"

Of course I want to ask him for help! But he is stubborn and won't even help the Cheng family. What can I do?
Yang Xun was secretly annoyed, but he denied it directly:
"It's not easy to ask Brother Xiaohui for help with this kind of thing, so I'd better figure it out myself!"

Can you think of a solution?

In the end, didn't he still set his sights on Song Yunhui?
Xun Jianxiang didn't understand. Song Yunhui had clearly not wanted to violate the principles, so why did Yang Xun still want to make trouble?
How sincere is the name "Brother Xiaohui"?
Of course he couldn't understand.

After all, the brotherhood between him and Song Yunhui is very pure, and he never wants to make things difficult for his brother.

Yang Xun can't even bear the pain of his mother, for whom he has given everything, so how can he take his brothers seriously?

Xun Jianxiang didn't want to persuade him anymore, so he changed the subject directly:
"When I'm not around, take care of yourself. If you're really unsure about business matters, don't be impulsive."

When Yang Xun heard this, he almost choked on his food, coughed twice, and said in surprise:
"Brother Daxun, what do you mean by this? Are you going to leave me?"

Xun Jianxiang nodded and said, "My old friend is doing business in Hong Kong Island now and invited me to help. I couldn't refuse. Besides, your business is already on the right track, so I agreed to her request."

"Hong Kong Island?"

Yang Xun perked up: "What kind of business does he do? We are good friends, we can cooperate if there is a chance!"

Xun Jianxiang shook his head: "I don't really know what kind of business it is. I just went there to work. I just did what they said. I also mentioned you, but she wasn't interested."

After hearing the last sentence, Yang Xun felt that he was being looked down upon again and was a little unhappy, but there was nothing to say, after all, he had never even met the other person.

He became more and more curious: "What does Brother Xiaohui say? Does he also support you to develop in Hong Kong Island?"

Xun Jianxiang laughed and reminded meaningfully: "I am his brother, of course he supports me."

After hearing this, Yang Xun naturally thought that Xun Jianxiang wanted to leave on his own, and his mood suddenly became complicated.

From Jinzhou to Donghai, Xun Jianxiang helped a lot. Now that he leaves, will he be able to find such a useful helper again?
But he couldn't stop Xun Jianxiang from going to Hong Kong Island.

I could only say depressedly: "Da Xun, you should know that I can't leave you here."

Xun Jianxiang said calmly: "The only person this wholesale market cannot do without is you, Yang Xun."

"Have you really decided?"

"The formalities should be completed before the 20th of next month. During this time, I will go back to Jinzhou for a visit."

"..."

Yang Xun lost his appetite.

***
During the National Day holiday, Chen Tao also had a day off and took his daughter and parents out for a ride.

After that, I continued to work and attend various social events.

Basically unremarkable.

Monday, October 22nd.

In a private room of a hotel.

Yang Xun suggested, "Da Xun, you are going to Hong Kong Island tomorrow. Do you want to invite Brother Xiao Hui to have dinner together tonight?"

Xun Jianxiang smiled and said, "He's a very busy man! How can you invite him just because you want to? In fact, he went to Beijing on a business trip the day before yesterday, and he won't be back to Donghai until at least the end of this month."

Yang Xun sighed when he heard this.

He actually knew very well why his "halfway brother" Xun Jianxiang was more trusted by Brother Xiaohui than him.

Since Xun Jianxiang doesn't do business, there's no need to ask him to do anything, so the relationship is naturally more pure.

"Brother Xiaohui is indeed busy!"

He echoed and raised his glass to Xun Jianxiang.

Since we can't get together in the evening, this lunch will be a farewell drink.

Xun Jianxiang and he finished the cup, took two more bites of food, and then said with emotion:
"Growing up, what I miss most is Jinzhou. I also miss the days of forced labor in northern Xinjiang. The memory is still fresh!"

Yang Xun exhaled the alcohol and said, "I miss my mother too, but I can't go back to visit her often. After all, how can I have the time to do business outside?"

Xun Jianxiang was tired of hearing nonsense like this.

This side of the East China Sea is really far from your hometown, and you don't have time to go back home, that's the truth. But don't you have time to install a telephone at home?

When you have time, call your mom and ask about her money. Don’t you have any?
Excessive!

Xun Jianxiang sighed, "Family is more important than business. You should pay more attention to your mother when you have time!"

He was speaking from deep within because he was thinking of his own father who died in the line of duty.

Yang Xun nodded repeatedly. Of course he cared about his mother very much.

As for whether he would pay back the money his mother owed him, it was unlikely.

As long as his mother lives, he will continue to spend the two hundred thousand dollars.

"Come on, Brother Daxun, I wish you all the best in Hong Kong Island."

Yang Xun raised his glass again, wished Xun Jianxiang a happy marriage, and then said with a smile: "If you become successful in Hong Kong Island, don't forget to help me, your brother!"

Do you still need me?

Xun Jianxiang believes that although Yang Xun has many shortcomings, he is indeed good at doing business.

Even though Chen Tao has given him a lot of encouragement, he still doesn't think that he will be able to reach Yang Xun's level in the future.

He complained: "Maybe I can't adapt to it over there and will come back soon. Then I'll have to beg you to keep me!"

Yang Xun couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'd love for you to come back and help me!"

'Even if I come back, I won't help you anymore,' Xun Jianxiang thought secretly.

He knew very well that one of the reasons why Chen Tao asked him to follow Liang Sishen was to keep him away from Yang Xun.

The next day, Frost Descent.

In the morning, Xun Jianxiang boarded a flight to Hong Kong Island.

At noon, the flight landed and Liang Sisen took him to a second-hand house in Peak View Garden in Central.

This is a house specially prepared for him.

Liang Sisen will live in the hotel by herself and move into the villa after it is renovated.

At the same time, Jinzhou Cheng family.

Lao Deng put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to Cheng's mother across from him, "I don't know why, but I occasionally feel frightened these past few days."

Cheng's mother comforted her, "Don't worry too much about Qianli. He suffered a loss once, so he won't do anything rash this time. If you're worried, give him a call."

Lao Deng thought for a moment, then got up and called his son to ask about the business situation.

Cheng Qianli was very upset because he was unwilling to lend him money, and he said impatiently:
"Can you please stop being like that ungrateful bastard named Song and think that I'm incompetent? My business is doing well! Stop bothering me!"

Lao Deng got angry when he heard this: "How can you talk like that? I'm concerned about you! I'm your father, can't I ask a question?"

Cheng Qianli boasted: "If you care about me, then lend me the money. I can guarantee that I can pay you back with interest in less than three months! My last name is not Song, and I am not an ungrateful person!"

He really got the money.

It’s not reselling steel… I haven’t received any orders, so what’s the point of reselling steel?
Instead, you can borrow money from relatives and friends at a low interest rate, and lend it out at a high interest rate. You can get a high interest payment every two months. Not only does it make money quickly but it’s also easy. It’s so cool!
Unfortunately, a year and a half later, the business he was involved in would be classified as the "first major case of illegal fundraising."

Lao Deng asked suspiciously, "Qianli, did you really make money?"

"If you don't believe me, throw me down!"

Cheng Qianli was too lazy to say more: "Anyway, I can live a good life without the help of that ungrateful bastard. Just save yourself the worry and pay more attention to Kaiyan!"

Lao Deng was still worried: "What kind of business are you doing? Come back when you have time and tell me about it."

"I won't tell you. What if you don't keep it secret and it gets out? How can I borrow money at a low interest rate?"

Cheng Qianli complained in his heart, but said casually: "You won't understand even if I tell you, so forget it!"

Lao Deng felt looked down upon and said unhappily:

"I don't understand? I'm your father, and I'm also the factory director. I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice. How can I not understand something that you can understand? Hurry up and tell me!"

Cheng Qianli snorted, "I will tell you when Mr. Song reports his work to you. You think I am incompetent? He is a son-in-law and he dares to look down on me. He is really a beast! I have something else to do, so let's not talk about it for now. I will go back to see you with Yuan Xiang when I am free."

"Hello..."

After his son hung up the phone, Lao Deng felt a little embarrassed and said depressedly: "This kid dares to talk like that, it must be Yuan Xiang behind this! Alas, it's unfortunate for our family to find this daughter-in-law! And that son-in-law!"

After saying that, he called his daughter.

"Kaiyan, how are you doing recently?"

"I'm fine! How about you? Are you and mom okay?"

"We are fine! We are just worried about you and Song Yunhui. Is he still in contact with Liang Sishen?"

"Uh~ Dad, there should be no problem between him and Liang Sisen. But how are you feeling recently?"

If her father were in good health, Cheng Kaiyan could try to confess.

"Alas, it's not good. I feel anxious these days. But it's nothing serious. Don't worry too much. As long as you take care of yourself and Song Yunhui, Dad will be relieved."

Is this not a big deal?

Lao Deng's words made Cheng Kaiyan hesitate again.

She still didn't confess: "Well, I understand. You and mom should take care of yourselves and don't overwork yourself. How is your brother doing?"

"He?"

Lao Deng couldn't help but complain, "He's been doing business recently, and he probably made some money, so he's so proud of it. I asked him what the business was, but he refused to be honest, as if I knew I would ask him to pay back the money. I don't even need to guess, I know it's your sister-in-law who is behind him. Your sister-in-law is really... I don't want to talk about her anymore."

"Dad! Don't be angry!"

Cheng Kaiyan comforted him, "It's a good thing that my brother can make money. This way, you will have less pressure. I don't have to look for Xiaohui anymore and see his face."

Even though she was right, Lao Deng was still very angry: "He gave you a cold shoulder? He's such a piece of shit! You were so blind to marry you to him!"

So was it the right decision for me to get a divorce?

Just as Cheng Kaiyan was thinking this, Lao Deng's voice came again:
"Don't beg him anymore in the future. Get along well with him and don't let family matters affect you."

"..."

Cheng Kaiyan was not stupid. Of course she knew that what her father said was actually because he didn't want her to get divorced!
Oh, how can I be honest so that my dad won’t get angry or even get sick from anger?

It’s so fucking annoying!

Cheng Kaiyan really wanted to go back to Jinzhou as soon as possible to be with her parents.

Evening, Beijing.

After dinner, Chen Tao strolled along the street holding his daughter and took some photos as a souvenir.

At 8:15 in the evening, the father and daughter returned to the guesthouse where they were staying.

As of now, friends like Director Lu finally understood why he often brought his daughter here.
I guess he didn't want his daughter to be alone with Cheng for too long and be influenced by him.

After washing up, the little girl suggested with a smile:
"Dad, I sing to you and you tell me stories."

Chen Tao smiled and said, "Dad is going to call your sister Si Shen, so you can sing after the call!"

"I want to sing for Sister Sishen, too."

"No, only Daddy can listen to you sing. After all, Daddy is the only one who will tell you stories tonight."

"Okay then, just sing for Dad."

"..."

Despite this, the girl still sang a few lines during the few minutes that Chen Tao and Si Shen were on the phone.

Liang Sishen also sang a few lines.

After singing, he asked Chen Tao to comment.

"Teacher, how do I sing?"

"To be honest, it's not that great. I'll teach you when I have time later!"

"I don't believe you're good at music."

"The capable are capable of anything. The song sung by the little cutie was composed by me."

"what?"

"..."

On October 30, Chen Tao and his daughter returned to Donghai.

In the next month, Luoda Chemical will come to inspect. (End of this chapter)
