Blackening starts from the golden years

The next morning, at Gu Jia's house.

Yuan Xudong hugged Gu Jia and sat behind the desk in the study, listening to her talk about the tea factory.

"I have personally gone through all the links, and it still cannot achieve standardized production. The equipment is old and the workers are scattered. It basically depends on the weather, and it cannot achieve a unified production plan and a stable sales model."

This is the current situation of the tea factory. It is simply a piece of loose sand with no investment value. Looking at Gu Jia, Yuan Xudong smiled and asked:

"What about the good parts?"

"The good thing is that there is no over-development, the people are simple, the environment is really good, there is no pollution at all, and the key and most primitive hand-picking and planting techniques have not been lost. You can take a look at the business plan I made, which is all mentioned."

Gu Jia smiled, and she reached out and moved the laptop on the desk so that the computer screen faced Yuan Xudong.

"See how it goes. If you think something doesn't work, then I'll change it."

After taking a look at the tea factory business plan written by Gu Jia, Yuan Xudong hugged her and smiled:
"Last night, didn't I promise you to invest three million in the tea factory? Why, this money is not enough for you?"

"No, that's not what I meant. Three million is enough."

Looking at Yuan Xudong, Gu Jia said seriously:
"Xudong, I really want to run this tea factory well, not just to play house. You are an investor and I am an entrepreneur. I hope you can really value the tea factory project instead of accompanying me. Play house.”

"Okay, since you said that, I'll be more serious."

Looking at Gu Jia, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Now I am an investor and you are an entrepreneur. You come to convince me to invest in a tea factory."

"Okay."

Looking at Yuan Xudong, Gu Jia smiled and began to introduce her business plan.

"I have done a very detailed data collection and analysis. There is still a blue ocean of brands in the mid-to-high-end tea market. There are many places in China that can produce tea, but most of them supply to a few well-known tea merchants like us. There are indeed very few independent brands, and I am particularly confident..."

After listening to Gu Jia's words, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Your plan is very ordinary and not attractive. Moreover, according to what I know about you, you are a housewife and have never been exposed to the field of tea before. So, why do you make me believe in your qualifications and What about ability?”

After a slight pause, Yuan Xudong continued:

"Our company receives many business plans every day. Unfortunately, your business plan does not meet the requirements of our company. Is there anything else you would like to add?"

Looking at Yuan Xudong, Gu Jia smiled and said:
"Our tea garden is located in the deepest mountains in western Hunan. The environment there is really good, far away from urban pollution, and we have always followed the most original hand-picking and planting techniques, just like the most emerging independent tea gardens in the city now. Cafes, I think tea will also be this trend in the future.”

"But according to my investigation, the current tea market prospects are not very optimistic, so I'm sorry, your investment plan is not in line with our company's current investment direction."

After taking a look at Yuan Xudong, who rejected him again, Gu Jia used the mouse to click on a few photos on his laptop and said:

"These are photos of tea gardens that I took casually with my mobile phone. They are not professional or clear, but these pictures are the ones that move me the most. I know that we now live in the most prosperous and convenient first-tier metropolis, and we may occasionally see things like this. The photo was also in a certain news photo when I was scrolling through my phone.

But I went there in person and lived with them for a week. I also felt the limitations brought by the environment, the most primitive planting and hand-picking techniques, and the most simple people's hearts. It is said that love comes from the heart. In fact, Tea is also made from the heart, and being unadulterated is the most valuable quality in this era.

In fact, I have walked a lost road before. I just wanted to take shortcuts to get wealth quickly. It was only because I went to this mountain that I found my original intention.

I really want to run this tea factory well. If you are willing to invest, I can minimize my profit margin. I don’t want to make much money from this project. I just want to let the children in the mountains have food. I have something to rely on, I'm done. "

"Very good. It's very touching. If you were to make a TV series now, I would definitely invest in your project."

Looking at Gu Jia who was a little moved by herself, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:

"However, reality is not a TV series. Reality will not teach people to do good deeds like TV series. Similarly, capital will not help the poor, it will only pursue profits. I didn't understand some of what you just said. I am an investor. You are an entrepreneur, you need my funds, and I need you to bring me returns, but what you just said, are you teaching me to do charity?”

Looking at Gu Jia who was a little confused, Yuan Xudong continued:

"A businessman, an entrepreneur, says that he wants to minimize his profit margin and doesn't want to make much money. If it is to deceive others, forget it. But if what you say is true, then it is too stupid, businessman Chasing profits, you don’t want to make money, you just want to do good things, so how can I believe that you can bring me enough returns?”

"But……"

Gu Jia wanted to say something, but Yuan Xudong interrupted her directly:
"There is no but. The only purpose of investment is to make money. A project that cannot make money is not a good project. Starting a business is not about playing house, let alone doing charity in the mountains. Gu Jia, you have to see clearly that the essence of shopping malls is to make money. In this world There is no free lunch, and there is no charity for no reason. Of course, a few true philanthropists are not excluded. However, the logic behind most businessmen doing charity is still to make a profit, and businessmen who say they don’t care about money are not liars. Just a madman.

So, accept the reality. I know you want to prove your ability, but there is no need to ask for trouble. Accept my help and continue running the tea factory. This is the right choice. "

After Yuan Xudong finished speaking, Gu Jia looked at him and asked:
"Since the purpose of investment is to make money, why would you invest in a tea factory that doesn't make money?"

"Why did you say?"

Looking at Gu Jia, Yuan Xudong smiled evilly and said:
"I like money very much, but I like beautiful women even more."

With that said, he stood up with Gu Jia in his arms and put her on the desk to sit.

Seeing Yuan Xudong put herself on the desk and then leaned over, as if she knew what he wanted to do next, Gu Jia's face turned red with embarrassment. She sat on the desk and leaned back, raised her eyes to look at Yuan Xudong who was gradually approaching and said shyly:
"Yuan Xudong, what do you want to do?"

"What do you say?"

Yuan Xudong smiled evilly and leaned down. He pressed the blushing Gu Jia under him, his right hand gently caressed her white legs under the pink skirt, and his left hand pulled open the bow on her chest and peeled it to both sides. , revealing her beautiful body as white as jade.

With a cry, she fell down on the table, her black hair spread out, and her two straight, tight, jade-white long legs tightly together, blocking Yuan Xudong's right hand.

"Don't be like this, Xudong, let's, let's go to the room, okay?"

Looking into Yuan Xudong's eyes, Gu Jia begged with tears in her eyes. Looking at her, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"I think it's nice here, Gu Jia, you are so beautiful."

"No, gangster, let me go~~"

Gu Jia was very shy. She felt that Yuan Xudong's physical strength was really great.

……

At noon, a restaurant.

Yuan Xudong sat with Zhong Xiaoqin, Wang Manni, and Gu Jia to eat together. Looking at Yuan Xudong, Gu Jia smiled and said:

"Xudong, I plan to run the tea factory well. In this case, I will have to run between Xiangxi and Shanghai, and even stay at the tea factory most of the time. You are Ziyan's godfather, can you help me? Take care of Yan for a while?"

"No, I don't know how to take care of children." When he heard that Gu Jia wanted to help take care of her son Xu Ziyan, Yuan Xudong passed the blame to Zhong Xiaoqin without thinking:

"Xiaoqin, you are Ziyan's godmother. You are responsible for taking care of him. I am a grown man. I can't even take care of myself. How can I take care of a child?"

"what?"

Seeing Yuan Xudong passing the blame to herself, Zhong Xiaoqin opened her eyes slightly and said:

"But I don't know how to take care of children. I can't even take care of Pikachu. I need Manni to help raise and take care of Ziyan. I can't bear such a big responsibility."

As she said that, she looked at Wang Manni, who was eating with her head down next to her, and said:

"Manni, you..."

Before Zhong Xiaoqin could finish speaking, Wang Manni raised her head and quickly refused:

"Don't try to mess with me. I've never even been married. Are you going to get it right in one step and let me raise the child?"

Seeing Yuan Xudong, Zhong Xiaoqin, and Wang Manni blaming each other there, Gu Jia couldn't help but rolled her eyes and said:

"Stop, stop, stop, please stop arguing and listen to what I have to say?"

"it is good."

"You say it."

Looking at Yuan Xudong, Zhong Xiaoqin, and Wang Manni, Gu Jia said:

"My dad will move in with us, and he and Aunt Chen will take care of Zi Yan together. If you have time, come over and take a look, and take Zi Yan out to play for a while on Sunday. Is that okay?"

"No problem, I'll take care of it."

Yuan Xudong agreed wholeheartedly, and Zhong Xiaoqin and Wang Manni also nodded repeatedly.

Xu Ziyan is quite obedient, and it's no problem to take him out to play occasionally. Yuan Xudong felt it was a pity. If Xu Ziyan was a girl, then for Gu Jia's sake, as the child's godfather, he would definitely raise him well and give him some of his property in the future, just like Like the big star Liu Yifei. Unfortunately, he is a boy. As the saying goes, a boy should be raised poor, so Yuan Xudong would not spend any money on him. At most, he could only spend some on his mother.

"Cheers, I wish the tea factory a prosperous business and great wealth."

"cheers."

……

After the lunch break, Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin went back to work, and Yuan Xudong also went to do his own business. Gu Jia returned home, took a hot bath, changed her clothes, stuffed an empty can of camellia into her bag, and then rushed to Mrs. Li's garden house. This afternoon, all the ladies in the wife’s circle were having afternoon tea at Mrs. Li’s garden house.

Mrs. Li naturally did not invite Gu Jia to the afternoon tea she hosted. Gu Jia only found out after asking Mrs. Wang. She planned to go to the ladies' circle for the last time to quarrel with the ladies and vent her anger.

Anyway, with Yuan Xudong supporting her, she was not afraid of the wives' revenge afterwards.

……

Arriving at Mrs. Li's garden house, Gu Jia walked directly in and appeared in front of the ladies. At this time, all the ladies knew that Gu Jia was tricked by Mrs. Li.

Looking at Gu Jia with a cold face, Mrs. Liu, who worked with Mrs. Li to deceive her, taunted her in a sinister way:

"Hey, isn't this Gu Jia? What are you doing here?"

Knowing that Gu Jia came to settle a score with Mrs. Li, Mrs. Wang looked at her and persuaded:
"Gu Jia, there's no need to look bad for that little money."

After glancing at Mrs. Wang, Gu Jia smiled, then she looked at Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu and said with a smile:

"Why are you nervous? I just came back from the tea factory. This is the latest product of the tea factory, Kongshan tea. I brought it back for everyone to try. By the way, I have made this tea factory."

With that said, Gu Jia took out a can of tea from his bag and put it on the table. Taking a look at Gu Jia and the so-called empty can of camellia she brought over, Mrs. Liu mocked:

"Oh, then we have to congratulate you. Congratulations on finding a big deal."

Looking at Mrs. Liu who was mocking him, Gu Jia smiled and said:
“I learned from the beginning to the end in the tea factory about tea picking, water sifting, rolling, drying, hair removal, and pressing, and finally this empty jar of camellia was formed. Even though this small piece of tea is inconspicuous, it has to go through thousands of tempers. What’s more, if it’s a human being, if he takes a wrong step, he’s nothing.”

Hearing what Gu Jia said, Mrs. Wang on the side laughed softly:
"It's different if you're literate."

After glancing at Mrs. Wang who was gloating about her misfortune, Mrs. Liu stood up and slapped the table and cursed:

"Gu Jia, who do you think you are? What's wrong with our circle? All kinds of cats and dogs can sneak in. Gu Jia, let me tell you, we have wanted to clean up the family for a long time, but you just refused to do it. Let’s go.”

Hearing what Mrs. Liu said, Mrs. Yu next to her whispered:

"Oh, Mrs. Liu, please don't speak so harshly, okay?"

In the circle of wives, only Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Yu are slightly nicer to Gu Jia. As for the other ladies, they all dislike her, especially Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu. In fact, this is normal. She is not in the same circle. Gu Jia has to squeeze in. Moreover, she is so arrogant. Although her posture is very low, these ladies are not fools. How could they You can't see the arrogance in Gu Jia's bones.

On the one hand, I look down on these ladies in the wife circle, thinking that they are superficial and uneducated. On the other hand, I want to stay in the wife circle and get some benefits from these wives, which makes Mrs. Li and the others feel unhappy. Therefore, Mrs. Li designed to trick Gu Jia and wanted to teach her a lesson. She was not really interested in Gu Jia's three million yuan. As Gu Jia said before, how could someone with a net worth of tens of billions cheat her from three million?
Of course, there are no absolutes in the world, but under normal circumstances, it is indeed impossible for someone with a net worth of tens of billions, and there is no need to specifically design to defraud others of three million.

Getting back to the topic, Gu Jia ignored Mrs. Liu, she went directly to Mrs. Li and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Mrs. Li, for digging such a big hole for an inconspicuous person like me. I am willing to pay for my mistakes. Every step a person takes has to pay a price. I will pay the price." Mine, what about you?”

Seeing Mrs. Li drinking coffee and ignoring her, Gu Jia didn't care either. She turned to look at the other ladies and said with a smile:

"You all always think that you have a backer, a superior family background, and are superior to others, but what about the reality? I can have my own name, Gu Jia, what about you? Mrs. Li, Mrs. Zhou, and Mrs. Liu survive because they bear their husband's surname. Living within the radius of your husband's value, trying to develop a sense of superiority, showing off together, and comparing, the more glamorous you are, the more pathetic it is."

After quarreling with all the ladies and taking one last look at Mrs. Li, Gu Jia turned and left.

"My name is Gu Jia. We will never see you again."

Seeing Gu Jia leaving gracefully, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Yu felt that they were wronged. Were they also being ridiculed?
