Chapter 156: Losses are Mr. Jiang's fault, and profits are Mrs. Jiang's fault

"Then my dear husband, why don't you hand over your salary card?" Xu Xian raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled cunningly, like a fox with evil intentions in mind.

She was just joking and wanted to see his reaction.

As for his salary card, she was too lazy to care about it.

Jiang Shibai thought for two seconds after hearing this, and then said seriously, "You are right. It is indeed my negligence. After the new year, I will call the family office and hand over the property under my name to you for management."

"Are you satisfied, Mrs. Jiang?" He quickly tilted his head and glanced at her with a half-smile. His dark eyes were bottomless, with a faint smile hidden in the corners of his eyes.

Xu Xian exclaimed in surprise, his pupils were shocked, and his lips were slightly parted in surprise. He looked at Jiang Shibai, who didn't want to pretend, and saw him staring at the road ahead calmly.

The bony palm fell on the steering wheel, manipulating it to turn, drawing a curved arc, and blue veins appeared on the surface of the skin.

"Don't joke." She swallowed uneasily, trying to keep her tone calm.

As a family with a long history, the Jiang family has a top wealth management agency that specializes in property management and economic affairs management. The existence of the family office ensures the protection, value preservation, and tax optimization of assets, which is not as simple as it seems.

The words "property management" sound light and airy, but there are many twists and turns and tricks involved.

Xu Xian was busy taking care of the design company's affairs and had neither the ability nor the time to manage his property.

Jiang Shibai's inky black eyes were filled with a faint smile, and his eyes turned upwards. He said lightly, "I'm not kidding. Perhaps you can try management, which may also help you with asset management in the future."

He had long expected that Xu Xian would definitely not be willing to take over such a complicated and cautious task as managing the property, but now he suddenly changed his mind.

Theoretical knowledge is far less effective than practice. After all, practice makes perfect.

In just a few months, the real estate and movable properties under Xu Xian's name had already reached billions, all of which were given to her by Jiang Shibai under various names.

Surprise gifts, apology gifts, gifts for statutory holidays, such as giving a sea view villa on the winter solstice, show your wealth.

She couldn't imagine whether he would become a pauper one day given the standard and frequency of his gifts.

Xu Xian didn't dare to try his hand with his large fortune, as if he failed, the loss would be a huge sum.

The amount of loss didn't matter to him, but it didn't reduce her psychological pressure. After all, it wasn't her money. It was okay if she spent it in a proper way, but she would feel guilty about the prodigal son squandering his money.

"No, what if we don't take care of it and we end up sleeping on the streets and starving?" She was still in a state of denial. In order to dispel his absurd idea, she described the situation as being very bad.

Her tone was serious, as if she had already foreseen the future scene of the two of them begging on the street.

Jiang Shibai laughed when he heard this. It was hard to imagine her train of thought. As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if he lost all his money, he still had the Jiang family behind him, so the two of them would not become beggars.

"Let's put it this way! If there's a loss, it's Mr. Jiang's fault, and if there's a profit, it's Mrs. Jiang's. This is a business that won't lose money. Mr. Xu, are you sure you don't want to invest?" Jiang Shibai changed his words, speaking from a businessman's perspective.

There is no smart businessman in the business world who would do a business that is bound to lose money, except Jiang Shibai.

However, the only person he would lose money on was Xu Xian. The others could only be played around by him and had to count the money for him after they sold the goods.

Xu Xian's lips twitched slightly. He didn't understand what he was so obsessed with. Was it because he had too much money?

"I have half of your money now. It sounds like a sure-win business. If we lose money, it will be a loss for both of us." She said with a smile, pulling out her trump card.

Now their property is considered joint property after marriage. No matter which party pays compensation, the other party will also suffer certain financial losses.

Jiang Shibai didn't expect that she would suddenly come to her senses and remember the agreement they signed before marriage and apply it flexibly to him.

"I respect you. If you ever want to manage your money, tell me and I'll give it to you."

Seeing how he insisted on letting her manage his property, Xu Xian sighed faintly, "Jiang Shibai, your money doesn't seem worth anything."

"It seems a little bit." Jiang Shibai agreed inexplicably.

He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and had been living a life of luxury since childhood, never lacking money. Money was just a specific number in his mind, without any other concept.

Xu Xian: “…”

After the two arrived at the hospital, Zhang Wan's examination for temporary discharge was completed.

As long as her condition doesn't worsen, it wouldn't be a big deal for her to be discharged from the hospital for a day or two given her current condition. She can barely swallow some food and is not completely terminally ill, lying in bed unable to move at all.

Xu Xian stuffed the slightly thick red envelope into Aunt Wan's palm, "Aunt Wan, Happy New Year! I'll be back to trouble you again next year."

Aunt Wan was a native of Hai City. Her home was only a few kilometers away from the hospital. She was not in a hurry to go home for the New Year and stayed with Zhang Wan in the hospital until the afternoon of New Year's Eve.

In the first year, Xu Xian changed several caregivers but was not satisfied with any of them. It was not until he met Aunt Wan through an introduction that he felt relieved and entrusted his mother to her care during the day.

In the past two years, Aunt Wan has been staying in the hospital day and night. She would not ask for leave to rest unless there was something important. In name, Xu Xian was the employer and had paid her wages. Aunt Wan was just doing her job. The two of them had settled the payment and owed each other nothing.

But people are emotional animals. Aunt Wan has made great contributions and worked hard in the past two years. She is not stingy with the amount of red envelopes during the holidays, which is an extra token of her thoughtfulness.

Aunt Wan was straightforward and didn't like false courtesy. She took the red envelope without hesitation and smiled brightly, "Of course not! I wish you and your mother would bother me forever."

This sentence does not sound auspicious when applied to ordinary patients. No one wants to spend their life in a broken state with the need for care from nurses in the hospital.

But for patients in the late stage of cancer, living one more day is a luxury, and living a lifetime is a wish and expectation.

"Okay, we'll bother you forever, as long as you don't mind." Xu Xianshui's eyes were misty, and he smiled softly, "We'll take care of the finishing here. You should go home for the New Year! Little Tiaotiao must be waiting anxiously."

The "little Tiaotiao" she mentioned is Aunt Wan's grandson.

Aunt Wan was very thoughtful and had already packed Zhang Wan's luggage. They just needed to check if there was anything else that was left out.

"Okay, the day after tomorrow I'll bring you some glutinous rice and brown sugar rice cakes that I made myself. You love them the most." Aunt Wan picked up the supermarket shopping bag on the table, put the red bag in it, and smiled on her kind face.

She knew that Xianxian liked sweet things, so she brought her brown sugar glutinous rice cakes and white sugar glutinous rice cakes several times before. Unexpectedly, she liked them very much and ate all of them.

Making glutinous rice cakes is a time-consuming and laborious process. She usually takes care of patients in the hospital and has no time to make them, but she can try it out during these two days of rest.

Xianxian gave her a big red envelope, but she couldn’t take it for free.

Brown sugar rice cake is not worth much money, but it is a token of thought. Cultured people like to say that the gift may be small but the sentiment is great.

Xu Xian already understood the ways of the world very well. He knew Aunt Wan's thoughts without having to guess. Instead of refusing, he agreed with a smile.

If she dared to say "no", the red envelope that had been put into the woven bag might be stuffed back into her palm in the next second.

A similar scene from last year is still vivid in my mind.
