Blackening starts from the golden years

Yuan Xudong carried Guan Juer into the swimming pool. She swam towards Fan Shengmei and Qiu Yingying. The three girls stretched out their arms and legs in the water, swimming and playing happily, splashing water at each other and making bursts of sweet laughter and screams, just like three white mermaids, seductive elves.

Looking at them, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but smile. He was wearing a black swimming trunks, with his strong upper body bare. He was like a shark in the sea, swimming under the water and swimming quickly towards the three little mermaids.

Qiu Yingying was the first to notice Yuan Xudong swimming under the water. She screamed and swam to the side, trying to escape. Unfortunately, Yuan Xudong swam too fast and she could only splash around in the water. It took her half a day to swim a short distance and she was soon caught up by Yuan Xudong. He rushed up from under the water and held her in his arms. She shouted happily, moving her limbs and splashing around in the water.

Seeing her like this, Yuan Xudong hugged her tightly. She was wearing a white swimsuit. The upper body was like a tube top, and the lower body was a white miniskirt. Her entire back was exposed. It was tied with only two thin straps and tied with a bow. She looked very seductive.

Holding the alluring Qiu Yingying, Yuan Xudong could see a touch of snow-whiteness just by lowering his head slightly. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a wicked smile, he reached out to untie the bow on the back of Qiu Yingying's swimsuit, and then pulled it with a little force, suddenly revealing her spring scenery.

Qiu Yingying couldn't help but exclaimed, and she threw herself into Yuan Xudong's arms, hugging him tightly with both hands, her whole body pressed against his arms, her pretty face flushed, and she said shyly:
"Hate it, give it back to me."

Yuan Xudong smiled. He held the swimsuit that Qiu Yingying had originally worn on her upper body in his hand, lowered his head and whispered in her ear with a sly smile:
"It's okay. The swimming pools here are private and match the houses we live in. No outsiders will suddenly break in."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and kissed her, gently kissing Qiu Yingying's fair neck, and said with a wicked smile:
"Yingying, I'm going to eat you."

"Hehe, it's so itchy. Don't eat me, eat Guan Guan. Guan Guan tastes better than me."

Qiu Yingying giggled and said that Yuan Xudong kissed her neck and she felt itchy.

At this time, Fan Shengmei and Guan Juer swam over from the side. They were originally planning to rescue Qiu Yingying, but when they heard what she said, Guan Juer snorted:
"Qiu Yingying, is there anyone like you? I won't save you, you're on your own."

Fan Shengmei also laughed and said:
"Yes, little earthworm, how can you do this?"

"Guan Guan, Sister Fan, help me."

Qiu Yingying cried for help. At this time, Yuan Xudong returned the swimsuit to her, caressed her chest, and then swam towards Guan Juer and Fan Shengmei next to her.

Seeing him swimming over, Fan Shengmei and Guan Juer ran away quickly, while constantly turning back to splash water on him. Qiu Yingying behind him put on her swimsuit again and then joined in the crusade against Yuan Xudong. She stood in the swimming pool, constantly scooping water and splashing it on him. The swimming pool was filled with bursts of crisp and pleasant laughter and exclamations from the three women.

Unlike Qiu Yingying, Guan Juer wore a traditional bellyband-style swimsuit, which made her chest bulge and looked very tempting. She wore a pair of white shorts that stuck to her body tightly, revealing her flat waist between the bellyband and the shorts, which was white and slender.

At this time, Yuan Xudong swam to her side, held her in his arms, and caressed her young and beautiful body with his hands. Guan Juer was very shy. Her face blushed. She resisted Yuan Xudong, trying to break free from his arms, while asking for help from Qiu Yingying and Fan Shengmei beside her.

Fan Shengmei was wearing a black bikini-style swimsuit. She swam directly towards Yuan Xudong. It was more like she was deliberately offering herself to him rather than wanting to save Guan Juer. Sure enough, she just patted Yuan Xudong's body twice and he reached out and embraced her in his arms. At this time, Qiu Yingying also swam over. She pushed Yuan Xudong with a giggle, but was also embraced by Yuan Xudong.

For a while, Yuan Xudong and the three mermaids were entangled together. After playing around for a while, he hugged Guan Juer, whose pretty face was blushing, and smiled:

"Okay, let's go take a break."

As he spoke, he carried Guan Juer ashore. Fan Shengmei and Qiu Yingying also walked out of the swimming pool. They each put on a white bath towel and then walked towards the room behind the swimming pool together. That was where they would stay tonight.

Yuan Xudong carried Guan Juer directly into the bedroom. The most conspicuous place in the bedroom was the extraordinarily large round bed. He threw Guan Juer in his arms directly onto the bed, then pounced on her. Fan Shengmei and Qiu Yingying, who followed him into the bedroom, looked at each other, then walked over and actively joined the game.

"Uh-huh……"

For a moment, the bedroom was filled with springtime sceneries and pleasant female voices could be heard one after another.

……

At this time, on the other side, at Qu Xiaoxiao's home.

After dinner, Qu Xiaoxiao told her father about the difficulties her company had encountered recently. Her father gave a third solution that was different from Andy and Yuan Xudong's. He also expressed his understanding of engineering projects. After all, he has been working on real estate projects all his life, and his understanding of this industry is far beyond what Andy and Yuan Xudong can compare to.

Sitting at the dining table, Qu's father was very satisfied with Qu Xiaoxiao's recent performance. This serious attitude was what he wanted. If you don't know how, you can learn; if you don't understand, you can ask. But if the attitude is not serious and you are slacking off all day long, then it's all over.

He was also very worried about this because the successor he had been training, his son Qu Lianjie, was such a careless person who was lazy and sloppy all day long. He spent all day dating women and playing racing with others. The branch company he was in charge of was run in a mess. If it weren't for him to help take care of it, he, the president of the branch company, would have been driven out by shareholders long ago, and might even be in jail now.

Looking at Qu Xiaoxiao, Qu's father said with a smile:

"Xiao Xiao, didn't you just say that? There are three companies in the second round? The situation has become very clear now. It all depends on who has the materials and is willing to compete."

Looking at her father, Qu Xiaoxiao said:
"But I can't do such a big project without making any money, right? Look at my quote. My gross profit is only about 2 million. After deducting the cost and the company's expenses, there is nothing left. If I add materials, then my entire project will basically make no profit at all."

"Yeah, that's right."

After listening to Qu Xiaoxiao, Qu's father pointed to her project plan and wrote:

"With this amount, everyone knows how much the business costs now. The operations of your company are transparent to those old hands. You might as well give them the full amount in one go, become brothers with them first, and let them open the door for you. As for the actual profit, there is still a long way to go."

Looking at her father, Qu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and said angrily:
"Dad, you mean to let me get the project first, and then do something when it comes to the actual operation? You are maliciously low-priced, and if you find out, your bid will be revoked."

Hearing what Qu Xiaoxiao said, Qu's father smiled and said:
"In order to do long-term business, we may have to give up immediate interests. As long as we don't lose money, it cannot be judged as malicious low prices. As for the implementation and operation, there are too many links, so it is normal to have some problems. Otherwise, what else can you do?"

Qu Xiaoxiao was speechless. She felt that she was still too naive. Andy and Yuan Xudong were also too naive. She really didn't expect that it could be done this way. Yes, there are so many links in engineering projects. As long as she does a little bit of manipulation in it, won't she make a profit?

Looking at Qu Xiaoxiao who seemed to be thinking about something, Qu's father smiled proudly and said:
"Xiao Xiao, you still have a lot to learn. Let me give you an example. In actual construction, for example, if you make the steel bars a little thinner, a little shorter, and use less, then when the building is completed, who knows?

Of course, you can't go too far. The minimum quality should be there, just a little worse than the requirement, a little worse here, a little worse there. After the whole project, won't you make a profit?"

Looking at her complacent father, Qu Xiaoxiao raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said with a smile:
"Dad, if you do this, those people who buy houses will scold you to death."

"Why are they scolding me?"

Father Qu smiled and said:

"It's not like I didn't build the house. It's the same if they move in. Xiaoxiao, let me tell you, if you want to make money, forget about conscience. How much is conscience worth?
I donate millions of dollars to charity every year, who wouldn't say I'm a good person? When you make money, and then take out a little to do charity, then you are a kind person. On the contrary, if you don't have money, then you are nothing. In today's society, having money means you have ability, and not having money means it's all nonsense.

Take your project for example, do you think the other party doesn't know the tricks here? They are squeezing the profit margin of the other party, for what? It's for their own profit. As long as you don't go too far, no one will care about it. Who would go against money?"

Hearing this, Qu Xiaoxiao nodded, and she suddenly asked:

"Dad, there won't be any problem with the house we live in, right?"

"what are you thinking?"

After rolling his eyes at Qu Xiaoxiao, Qu's father smiled and said:

"We built our own house, how could there be any problem? Not to mention the house, even the rice, vegetables, chickens and ducks we eat are all specially grown and raised by people I hired. Hehe, let me tell you, in the market now, not only the house, but also the food and drink you eat may have problems. In order to make money, there is nothing people dare not do."

"Fuck, that's so exaggerated."

"What do you think?"

Qu's father rolled his eyes and laughed. At this time, Qu's mother came over, sat down next to Qu Xiaoxiao and laughed, "Yes, your father specially rented a piece of land in the countryside. We eat and use good things. If we want to be like the people outside, then what do we earn so much money for?"

"good."

Father Qu nodded and said:

"My family is still not rich enough. If we were rich, we could build a private nursing home. Not to mention special supplies of food and drinks, there are many other things that can be specially provided. Do you think the difference between rich people and ordinary people is just buying luxury goods?

Then you are wrong. There is a world of difference between the life of a rich person and that of a poor person. The resources they can enjoy are completely on different levels. Do you think the bags you bought and the sports cars your brother bought are luxury goods?
Then you think the life of a rich person is too simple. Work hard. Dad has laid a good foundation for you. Whether you can go to the next level in the future depends on you and your brother."

"Okay, I will try my best."

Qu Xiaoxiao smiled and said that she had gained a lot today. She only knew that her family was rich, drove luxury cars, lived in a mansion, and had servants at home. She didn't expect that her father actually rented a piece of land in the countryside. The food and things her family used were all good things that money couldn't buy. But then again, her family was so rich, and if they ate food bought outside every day, who knew if it was healthy?
After chatting with her parents for a while, Qu Xiaoxiao left home. She decided to confront the other party and reduce her own profits to the lowest level. If she could do it, she would do it. If she couldn't, then forget it. As for whether she should tamper with the project after it succeeded, Qu Xiaoxiao was still a little hesitant. After all, she had never done such a bad thing before, and she still felt a certain amount of pressure in her heart.

If something goes wrong, I won’t go to jail, right?
At this moment, Qu Xiaoxiao had an idea, and she secretly thought that she could open another company in the future under someone else's name. This way, if she made money, she could take the profits away, and if something went wrong, there would be someone to take the blame. Wouldn't she be safe then?

Thinking of such a good idea, Qu Xiaoxiao secretly delighted and felt that she was born to be rich, otherwise how could she be so smart?
……

On the other side, in the holiday villa, night fell, Yuan Xudong took Guan Juer and the other two girls to the restaurant for dinner. He went to eat with Lao Fang and others, and Guan Juer and the other two girls sat together to eat.

Qiu Yingying happily ate her favorite dessert while talking to Guan Juer beside her:

"Guan Guan, I should have a small amount of savings next month. What do you think? Should I give this savings to my parents, or keep it for investment?"

"invest?"

"Ah."

"What do you want to invest in? Stocks?"

Looking at Qiu Yingying, Guan Juer said:

"My suggestion is that you should save the money in the bank, or give it to your parents. With your salary, you don't have much left every month. What should you invest in?"

"You're right. I should honor my parents. They used to give me money every month. Now it's my turn to give them living expenses."

Qiu Yingying smiled happily, and then she looked at Fan Shengmei who was eating with her head down and asked:
"Sister Fan, what about you? You have been working for so many years. Do you have any private money?"

Guan Juer secretly tugged at Qiu Yingying's clothes under the table and winked at her. Looking up at the two of them, Fan Shengmei smiled and said:

"As for me, I live paycheck to paycheck. How can I have any private money?"

Fan Shengmei's smile was a little awkward. She had been working in Shanghai for ten years. Not only did she not have a penny in savings, she also owed a lot of foreign debts. It was only later that Yuan Xudong gave her a bank card that she was able to pay off all her debts. As for the money she earned from her previous job, she had to send living expenses to her parents every month, and also support her bastard brother's family. With such a big family sucking her blood and bones, she naturally would not have any savings.

"Sister Fan, eat beef. This beef is delicious."

Guan Juer wanted to pick up some beef for Fan Shengmei, but Fan Shengmei quickly stopped her and said with a smile:

"Even if it tastes good, you can't eat too much. If I continue to indulge myself like this, I won't be able to fit into my skirt."

"Sister Fan, is this all you're going to eat?"

"Well, if you don't exercise some moderation, what will you do in the future?"

Looking at Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying, Fan Shengmei smiled and said:
"You two should be more restrained, especially you, little earthworm. Be careful not to get fat if you eat too much. We'll see if Yuan Xudong still likes you then."

Hearing Fan Shengmei say this, Qiu Yingying was stunned and said:

"Then I should eat less, too, and eat healthier."

Looking at the beef on her plate, Guan Juer ate it in one bite and said:

"I'm fine. I run every morning so I can eat more."

"Guan Guan, I'll start running with you tomorrow morning, and you can wake me up then."

"Okay."

Guan Juer smiled. At this time, Qiu Yingying looked at Fan Shengmei next to her and asked:
"Sister Fan, what about you? Do you want to run with us?"

"As for me, forget it. I recently signed up for a training course."

Fan Shengmei smiled.

"Training class?"

Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer were both a little confused. Qiu Yingying asked:

"Sister Fan, what kind of training class is this? Can Guan Guan and I follow you to learn?"

"Okay."

Looking at Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer, Fan Shengmei approached them and smiled softly:

"It's the kind of socialite training class that teaches women how to serve men. Do you two want to sign up?"

"what?"

"what?"

Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying both blushed and couldn't help but exclaimed. Looking at Fan Shengmei, Guan Juer said shyly in a low voice:

"I heard that many people who graduated from those socialite training classes married rich men. Sister Fan, is this true?"

"There are some, but they are rare. Rich people are a scarce resource."

Fan Shengmei smiled. At this time, her cell phone rang. She picked up the phone and took a look. It was a call from her college classmate. She answered the call directly and smiled:

"Hey, Lao Hu, why did you think of calling me?"
