Reborn: Billionaire in College

Chapter 479 The Mysterious Son-in-law

But looking at Cong Junyou's facial features, he must have been a handsome guy in his early years, otherwise he would not have given birth to a daughter like Cong Nini who is so good-looking.

But years of excessive drinking, sex and overeating had made him look weak. When he smiled, his face had many wrinkles, and he had shaved his head. Although he was in his early fifties, he looked like an old man.

At first, Chen Pingjiang was a little uncomfortable with the father-daughter relationship, but after gradually getting familiar with it, he finally took back the initiative.

Chen Pingjiang is best at speaking differently to different people.

When chatting with his real father-in-law Yan Liming, Chen Pingjiang would talk about hot issues such as the international situation and social outlook. He also had a high-level view of things and spoke to the essence of things, which made Yan Liming look at him with new eyes.

When talking to a fake father-in-law like Cong Junyou, Chen Pingjiang can also continue the conversation by following the other party's previous words.

It's not necessary to start talking about women, playing cards and the like, after all, both men have to save face.

"Business is not easy now. Coal prices are getting lower and lower, and mine management is becoming more and more difficult. On the one hand, the government is strict, requiring complete qualifications and environmental protection standards. On the other hand, the cost of workers' wages has risen sharply, and even the pension standards have gone up. The small mines of the past can no longer be run. Now you need big money to play."

Cong Junyou lowered his head and took a puff of cigarette, then shook his head and sighed. While speaking, he kept looking at this son-in-law.

Cong Junyou was knowledgeable and could tell at a glance that Chen Pingjiang was an extraordinary person.

Cong Junyou had once met the big boss at the mine, Yaoyao, and the aura of the two men was exactly the same.

To be honest, that big leader might not be as good as this son-in-law.

This was enough to make Cong Junyou curious.

What is the identity of the son-in-law?

My daughter has caught a rich husband.

Chen Pingjiang pinched the cigarette butt and extinguished it in the ashtray. He stretched out his hand to wave away the smoke swirling in front of him and nodded at Cong Nini. The latter understood and obediently went to the kitchen to pour water.

This scene made Cong Junyou feel both envious and a little unhappy.

What he envied was that Chen Pingjiang was good at controlling women, which he was not good at; what made him unhappy was that the woman he controlled was his Cong Junyou's daughter.

He knew his daughter's personality and was even more surprised when she became so obedient.

"The overall environment is not good now. The overall performance of the coal market is sluggish, and prices continue to fall, entering a period of sustained lows. From last year to this year, the total supply and demand of the coal market is loose, and the trend of structural surplus is difficult to change. I estimate that especially in the first half of this year, prices will continue to fall, and it would not be surprising to fall to the level of 07. As far as I know, the coal inventory of many companies has hit a record high. In addition, the problem of oversupply is particularly prominent this year, resulting in great operating pressure for coal companies."

After Cong Junyou heard this, he was shocked. After a while, he looked at his daughter who came over after pouring water with a curious look: "My goodness, what does your son-in-law do for a living? The way he speaks is exactly the same as the big leaders I have seen. And he analyzed the market situation very thoroughly in just a few sentences, which is much better than me. I only know that the price of coal is low, but I don't know why it is so low."

Cong Nini rolled her eyes: "Old man, you really don't know him?"

Cong Junyou was completely confused, "Should I know him?"

Cong Nini sighed and shook her head: "Forget it."

Chen Pingjiang interrupted with a smile: "I am just an employee. I have read relevant analysis before. Uncle, if you think it makes sense, just listen to it."

Cong Junyou pondered for a while and then asked, "Why does the price continue to fall? Can't it go up?"

Chen Pingjiang said: "There are many reasons. One is that the country has increased its efforts in economic restructuring and energy conservation and environmental protection. The second is that clean energy has begun to occupy the market."

Small bosses like Cong Junyou couldn't understand why the demand for coal was not increasing, but Chen Pingjiang's position was too high and he could see through the essence at a glance.

After listening to this, Cong Junyou slapped his thigh and said, "Forget it, I won't worry about it anymore. I plan to quit the coal business anyway. I'll just play cards and play with birds in the future. I've played for half my life and it's time to enjoy my life. By the way, son-in-law, when are you going to get married and give me a big fat grandson to play with?"

Chen Pingjiang: "..." After hearing this, Cong Nini wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into. This is really her father, how could he not lift it up? What kind of words are you talking about!

Even someone as thick-skinned as Cong Nini couldn't stand it, and rolled her eyes in annoyance: "The grandson you wanted has already been born!"

"Give birth!?" Cong Junyou was shocked again. "When did it happen? How come I didn't know about it? Why didn't you bring him back with you? Did you two get married or did you get on the bus first and buy the ticket later? What's my eldest grandson's name? Does he look like his grandfather?"

Chen Pingjiang smiled secretly and took a sip of water, leaving Cong Nini sad and deeply doubting whether it was right to come back this time.

Dad is still the same Dad, he hasn't changed at all, a bit of an old man who is not only unruly but also speaks without restraint in front of his lover and doesn't care about his own face.

He doesn’t even know Chen Pingjiang, a famous domestic figure. It seems that the old man just lives in his own little circle and doesn’t care about the outside world at all.

After meeting her father-in-law Chen Guangming, Cong Nini also felt helpless about having such a father.

But what can she do? This is still the person closest to her in the world.

When I was a child, my mother abandoned me and remarried. After she remarried, she ignored me even more. I was raised by my father. Although my father seemed like a bastard to outsiders, he always responded to my requests.

He was never stingy with himself when he was rich, and even now that he is not doing so well, he is always concerned about whether he has enough money.

This weird father of hers doesn't love Xisheng as much as other fathers, but deep down he still cares about her, otherwise Cong Nini wouldn't have come back to see her this time.

But Cong Nini could never forget that her father was determined to provoke the vixen, and she was quite peaceable in the situation of having to choose between the two.

"We'll talk about these things later."

"Why tell me later? Can't I tell you now?"

Cong Nini glared and said, "I said we'll talk about it later. If you care so much, what have you been doing earlier? Oh, by the way, where's that vixen of yours?"

Cong Junyou choked up: "Uh, you mean Xiaolan, she went out to play mahjong, she...she's been a bit addicted lately."

Cong Nini sneered, "I really don't know what's so good about this woman. You're the only one who spoils her. She's lazy and doesn't work. She plays cards every day. She eats your food, lives on your property, and uses your things. She also wants you to give money to subsidize her parents' home. I get angry when I talk about this. When she came back a few years ago, she spoke to me in a weird tone. Dad, you just pretended to be deaf and dumb."

Chen Pingjiang stood by, watching the situation with his eyes and nose, silently, and just listening with his ears.

These family matters were trivial to him, and were also Cong Nini's family affairs. It was not his turn to interrupt the conversation between the father and daughter.

"Oh, I heard someone scolding me outside. It turns out that the little sister from the Cong family is back." As he was speaking, he heard the sound of a door opening, accompanied by a somewhat sharp woman's voice.

Cong Junyou quickly stood up and went over to greet her, explaining with a smile: "You heard wrong, Xiaolan, we were talking about someone else, not you."

Xiaolan, who was walking towards me, was in her early forties. She looked average, but she had a slim figure and didn't have the belly fat that older women have.

Chen Pingjiang couldn't explain why his khaki-dyed hair was styled in a certain style, but it just looked rustic.

Xiaolan's full name is Li Xiaolan. She is average looking and has some freckles on her face. However, the sharp-eyed Chen Pingjiang can still see that her double eyelids are unnatural. She must have had surgery. Her lips are probably also the ones that have had surgery.

Cong Nini did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed about being caught talking about someone behind their back. Instead, she was furious at her father's apologetic explanation.

This was the reason why she couldn't stay in this house.

His father was such a coward! He had been through so much in the past, and he didn't know how Li Xiaolan could control him so well.

The more Cong Junyou behaved like this, the angrier Cong Nini became, because she disliked this woman very much! (End of this chapter)
