Ye Qianqian became a six-year-old chubby darling. Not only did she possess dual-system powers, but she also had four big-shot dads.
"Dad!"
The little darling cried, startling th...
Chapter 504: Full Support for Trade with Nanyuan 3
"It's enough to have savings. Money is the most reassuring thing. I can't help you with money, but I can still manage the business. Leave the construction of the restaurant to grandpa. I guarantee that within half a year, all major cities in Beili will have aquatic-themed restaurants." Old Gu was also a little excited.
Just thinking about discussing this with my grandson and great-granddaughter makes my blood boil.
Gu Shuo was speechless, knowing how come he cared more about this matter than he did.
"Haha, since this is the little girl's wish, why don't we join forces?" Qian Fu suggested.
"Okay, Nanyuan is so big that one family cannot take it all. When it becomes famous in the future, there will definitely be many rivals. The boy from the Qian family is the most capable in handling these matters." Old Gu readily agreed.
"Then we have a deal."
"It's settled."
Qian Fu and Mr. Gu discussed the matter with each other and made the decision in a blink of an eye, without any concern for the others.
Zhan Chi looked unhappy and forgot to call his father.
Ye Qianning listened to the conversation and felt amused and helpless. If he wanted to participate, then he could. After all, there would be a lot of things to do later. Mr. Gu was very familiar with the business conditions in several countries. If he could grasp the key points and move towards the future, the seafood restaurant would become famous quickly.
Qian Fanji and Gu Shuo didn't say anything either, which meant they agreed.
Now they just have to wait for Nanyuan. They can wait, but Nanyuan can't.
——
The next day, the Gu family sent someone to convey a message, asking Mr. Gu to return home.
Ever since the Gu family was threatened by Old Gu last time, they no longer dare to surround the general's mansion no matter how big the problem is.
When Mr. Gu saw the person coming, he understood everything clearly. Without hesitation, he immediately got up and went back to the Gu family.
Ye Qianning persuaded Mr. Gu for a long time yesterday before he gave up the idea of leaving the family tree. If a man in his eighties left the family tree, people would point at his spine and laugh at him.
Those who knew about it would ask to leave on their own initiative, while those who didn’t know would definitely feel that they had done something shameful and would no longer be tolerated by the clan.
Although the old man always said that he didn't mind, as the younger generations, they felt very sad to see their old man being pointed at and scolded by others.
"Miss, the second master and second mistress of the Gu family are here." The servant reported.
Ye Qianning frowned slightly when he heard the visitor. He was afraid that Gu Mingqiu bringing Dai to the house right after Mr. Gu left was not a good thing: "Just say I'm not at home."
"yes."
"etc."
The servant retreated and turned around, but before he had taken two steps, Ye Qianning called him back.
"Please let them in."
"yes."
Ye Qianning lowered her eyes. She couldn't hide from Gu Shuo's parents.
only……
Gu Mingqiu looks honest, but he actually has a bad heart. He doesn't treat Gu Shuo and Dai very well. If it weren't for the Gu family's assets, he would be a typical Phoenix man.
Dai was responsible for everything at home, but his words were harsh and he even asked for money.
If you don't give it to him, he will definitely scold you.
When Gu Shuo was framed, he didn't say a word for his son. Instead, he listed Gu Shuo's mistakes in front of everyone, which was extremely heartbreaking. That was why Gu Shuo was willing to leave the clan.
Dai is a good woman. She is decisive and insightful.
The servant led Gu Mingqiu and his wife in, bowed to Ye Qianning and then left.
As soon as Gu Mingqiu entered the door, he looked at the sitting little baby with a gloomy look in his eyes.
"Miss Xiang." Dai leaned forward slightly.
Ye Qianning didn't expect Dai to bow to her, so she quickly stood up and said, "Madam, there's no need to be so polite. Please take a seat."
Dai winked at Gu Mingqiu.
Gu Mingqiu snorted softly, turned around and sat down, muttering softly, "Why are you giving such a small gift to a kid?"
When Dai heard this, she glared at him fiercely, with a strong warning in her eyes.
Although the person in front of him was young, she was the daughter of the general's mansion after all, and the crown princess who was married by the emperor himself. They were businessmen, and etiquette could not be violated.
"Are Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu here to look for Great Grandfather? He just left." Ye Qianning asked with his head tilted.
When Gu Mingqiu heard the name, he glared at Ye Qianning several times, looking very dissatisfied and angry.
Dai said amiably, "No, we are here to see you."
"Um?"
"My husband and I came here just to find out whether Miss Xiang has recognized Gu Shuo as her godfather, or just the old man as her great-grandfather." Dai went straight to the point.
"Is there any difference?" Ye Qianning raised his eyes.
Dai looked at the pink and innocent little baby in front of her, and didn't know if she could understand what she explained. She was so young and shouldn't be so scheming.
"Tell me, were you the one who persuaded the old man to split the family property?" Gu Mingqiu couldn't help but stand up and asked angrily.
"The division of the Gu family has been something that several branches of the Gu family have wanted to do for a long time." Ye Qianning almost knew why they came.
"Who told you that you have been thinking about it for a long time? The old man was going to leave the Gu family's property to us Gu Shuo, but you messed it up like this and it's all gone. The old man wants to leave the family because of you. Little kid, you are the daughter of the Xiang family, not the daughter of my Gu family. What good will it do you to instigate the old man?" Gu Mingqiu has been angry since the last time.
Dai glared at him secretly and whispered, "Don't be so angry when talking to the child."
"I'm hot-tempered? Look at what disgusting things the dignified Miss Xiang has done. I've been kind enough. If it were someone else, they would have taken action long ago."
If this kid hadn't caused trouble, even if the other families objected, the old man's property would have been left to Gu Shuo.
Dai looked at Gu Mingqiu with uncontrollable disgust in her eyes.
Ye Qianning laughed when he heard these words, and his laughter was clear and pleasant.
Gu Mingqiu was stunned immediately, looking at the smiling child, he felt that she was abnormal.
Ye Qianning's smile faded, and his eyes became sharp: "Disgusting things? Master Gu, tell me what disgusting things I have done."
Gu Mingqiu was stunned again, then reacted and said, "Don't think I don't know that the Xiang family's kid is meddling in the Gu family's affairs. It was you who instigated Gu Shuo to prevent him from returning to the Gu family regarding the division of the family property."
"Does Master Gu know what your son's personality is like?"
"Of course I understand."
"You should know better whether he wants the family property or not. Why are you questioning me?" Ye Qianning said in a light voice.
"It's you..."
"Okay, stop talking." Dai was very impatient to interrupt Gu Mingqiu.
Gu Mingqiu was very unhappy about being interrupted and turned around to glare at her.
"Why are you glaring at me? You didn't dare to say a word when the family was divided, and now who are you showing off to?" Dai wanted to save his face, but she also knew her husband's character very well.
The more you give him face, the more excited he will be.
Gu Mingqiu glared at him several times: "Huh."
"Please go out. Miss Xiang and I have something to discuss alone."
"Why should I go out?"
"Okay, if you don't go out, I'll leave. You can make a fuss here by yourself, as much as you can." Dai said as she stood up and walked out.
Gu Mingqiu was a typical timid person. When he saw Dai really left, he quickly got up and followed her.
"Why are you leaving?" Dai turned around.
Gu Mingqiu had a gloomy face and was speechless.
"Hurry up and go." Dai urged.
Gu Mingqiu wanted to speak several times but held back and reluctantly walked out the door.
He wondered in his heart why she was speaking so harshly today, not giving him any face at all.
Ye Qianning watched with interest. Although Gu Mingqiu had no ability and did not care about his wife at all, he was very afraid of his wife and did not dare to refute her in private.
But there is one thing, Gu Mingqiu does not allow others to talk about the affairs of the Gu family's several branches. Even if Dai is dissatisfied, as soon as the matter of the Gu family's several branches is mentioned, no matter whether it is good or bad, he will turn his face away, either refusing to listen or starting an argument as soon as it is mentioned.
Gu Mingqiu's thoughts and attitudes are rare, and it's thanks to the Dai family that they have tolerated him for so many years.
Dai walked back to the hall and saw the little man staring at her. She smiled slightly, not at all embarrassed by the incident that had just happened.
"Madam, what do you want to tell me?" Ye Qianning asked.
"I want to know what's going on between you and Gu Shuo."
"It doesn't matter."
"Don't lie to me, little kid. I know my son's temper better than anyone else. He is not the type to like children, nor will he hang out with people just because their children are cute." Mrs. Dai not only understood her son, but also the old man.
The old man thinks more than anyone else. If he hasn't figured something out himself, no one's persuasion will be of any use.
"Then what do you think of the relationship between me and Boss Gu, madam?" Ye Qianning asked back.
Dai thought about it and shook her head: "I haven't figured it out yet."
If the girl in front of her wasn't Miss Xiang, she might think that this girl was Gu Shuo's illegitimate daughter. Now that she has a family, and Gu Shuo's attitude is so abnormal...
"It's nothing, actually. I just thought Boss Gu was good at business, so my dad asked me to discuss a deal with him." Ye Qianning didn't reveal too much.
"Just business?"
"Um."
Dai was skeptical: "What business?"
"It's inconvenient to talk about commercial secrets. Madam should understand."
Dai knew the business rules, but he still couldn't understand why a great general would let a six-year-old child negotiate a business deal?
"Regarding the division of the Gu family, I did talk to Mr. Gu about some things, and only then did he agree to a complete division." She had nothing to hide about the division of the Gu family.
Come to think of it, I had indeed crossed the line.
"I know." Dai was not surprised at all.
"Madam, don't you blame me? Mr. Gu originally wanted Boss Gu to return to the family tree and leave the Gu family to Boss Gu." Such a large sum of money would be very explosive in modern times, comparable to a major business leader.
Dai sighed when she heard this. "It's not easy for him to return to the clan. Even if the old man wanted to, he can't make a scene with the other branches. There's also Elder Zhang in the clan. When they expelled Gu Shuo, they thought about letting him return. I know my son well. Even if the old man gave him everything in the Gu family, he wouldn't want it. He has been very opinionated since he was young. No one can persuade him to make his own decisions."
The current situation of the Gu family is considered a good thing. At least they won’t have anything to do with each other in the future.
From now on, I will be responsible for everything good or bad, and it feels good.
Ye Qianning's eyes were filled with admiration. Dai was a very insightful person and had great business acumen. The second branch's division of property would surely prosper if she were to manage it.
"I came here today, first, to ask about you and Gu Shuo, and second, I simply want to see you." Dai said.
