Chapter 19: Doing Business with My Uncle
Only twenty minutes had passed when Fu Juechuan returned to the dormitory.
When no one was around, the corners of his mouth, which he had been restraining, finally rose uncontrollably, and he put the four valuable gifts that Ye Qiaoqiao had given him into the wooden box with a code under the bed.
All that Ye Qiaoqiao had given him was placed inside.
He obviously did not intend to use the sunglasses and other items, but to carefully preserve them, leaving a note next to each item with the specific date written on it.
Looking closely, there are many objects in this wooden box, all of which Ye Qiaoqiao is completely unfamiliar with.
It seems that Ye Qiaoqiao occupies a large part of his life.
The next morning, Ye Qiaoqiao just got up and went downstairs, and saw her father talking to Fu Juechuan who had come over at some point.
Ye Qiaoqiao was far away and only vaguely heard some special mission, some grain being robbed, and the need to move out immediately.
After a while, Fu Juechuan looked up at her.
Commander Ye waved his hand.
Fu Juechuan nodded and walked towards her.
"Qiao Qiao, take good care of yourself." Fu Juechuan said deeply, seeming very worried about this.
Ye Qiaoqiao didn't understand, but nodded obediently. She felt that she was quite safe now. Maybe it was because Brother Fu was suffering from the aftereffects of spraining his ankle when she had an argument with Zhou Cong.
He will subconsciously feel that he needs protection.
"I understand, Brother Fu, you should also pay attention to safety and come back early." Ye Qiaoqiao waved with a smile.
Fu Juechuan nodded to her, looked at her deeply, and then turned and left.
Also leaving with Fu Juechuan was Commander Ye.
But he went to the military district office to direct the operation.
Ye Qiaoqiao had just finished breakfast.
Gu Jin, who had made an appointment with her, came to her house.
"Uncle, I came to you today because I want to ask you for a favor."
Seeing her being so polite, Gu Jin couldn't help but smile, "What favor do you need? Just tell me."
"Do you want to do business?"
Ye Qiaoqiao's sudden words instantly surprised Gu Jin, and at the same time, he felt a little guilty, "Do you know that I'm doing business?"
Ye Qiaoqiao just looked at him with a smile.
She only found out about this in her previous life after her uncle passed away.
It was then that she realized that her uncle had such a good business sense.
However, his grandmother was so devastated by his mother's death that she did not allow him to do business. She only allowed him to have a stable job, and it didn't matter if he earned less, as long as he was safe.
"Qiao Qiao, can you not tell your grandma?" Gu Jin fell silent and asked softly, as if he was asking himself, his expression dazed for a moment.
"Uncle." Ye Qiaoqiao covered the back of his hand and said with a smile, "If you didn't help me with business, Zhou Chong would continue to bully me. I have you at grandma's side."
"Grandma wouldn't want us to be bullied." Ye Qiaoqiao said with certainty.
If we were to say who was more sad after my uncle passed away in my previous life, it would only be my grandma.
"You want me to expand my business and suppress Zhou Chong in the business world?" Gu Jin understood what she meant and nodded in agreement, "Yes, you have a good idea."
Ye Qiaoqiao wrote down all the investment information she had compiled and the opportunities that had enabled Zhou Cong to become successful in his previous life, and handed them to Gu Jin.
Gu Jin took the documents back to the company that day.
After watching it, I started doing business in a big way.
Ye Qiaoqiao said nothing and just handed over her savings.
On Gu Jin's side, he skillfully snatched away the refrigerator factory that Zhou Chong originally wanted to acquire at a low price, and cooperated with Jiang Yuan to import a batch of refrigerators. The large-capacity Dongqiao refrigerators they produced became popular all over the country.
Gu Jin's business immediately got on the right track and began to make huge profits every day.
A few days later, Ye Qiaoqiao went out to visit her grandmother in the nursing home.
"Grandma, I'm here to see you." Ye Qiaoqiao walked into the nursing home wearing a long coat and leather shoes.
This is a retirement home for cadres. My grandmother donated the property left by my grandfather a few years ago, and the state gave her preferential treatment. At the same time, my grandmother is also a famous painter, so she has a worry-free life in her later years.
"Qiao Qiao, didn't you just get engaged? How come you have time to come and see an old woman like me?"
Ye Qiaoqiao took her grandmother's hand and told her about her uncle's business for her.
Grandma Gu was silent.
Ye Qiaoqiao only talked about what Zhou Cong did to her.
Some of them happened in past lives, and some happened in this life. She didn't lie. After she finished speaking, her whole body felt a little low.
Grandma Gu turned her head and looked at her. Her granddaughter, who had been very happy at the engagement party, now looked like a withered branch beaten by wind and rain.
"No wonder I felt that although Qiao Qiao was happy at the engagement party, she seemed to be hiding something." Grandma patted her hands gently, her eyes kind, "Since someone is plotting against you, then fight back. However, you must promise me that when you have money in the future, you will not betray your country, become a profiteer, or ignore your relatives for money."
"Grandma, my uncle and I don't know how to do that." Ye Qiaoqiao just smiled, "We are your descendants."
Grandma Gu smiled.
Her face was filled with trust and pride in the younger generation. "Go ahead, Qiao Qiao. Grandma believes in you and will defeat those who bully you."
"Yeah." Ye Qiaoqiao's nose felt sore and her voice became tearful.
The pressure she had been under for so long was finally released when she leaned on her grandmother's shoulder and listened to her unreserved trust and love.
Even though she was happy to face her father, she was also worried that he would repeat the same mistakes.
Facing Fu Juechuan, her benefactor, the better he treated her, the more guilty she felt.
Facing her uncle, she was worried about his health.
Only her grandma can give her a moment of peace.
"Miss, someone is looking for you outside."
About an hour later, Xie Song stepped forward and informed Ye Qiaoqiao.
Ye Qiaoqiao looked up and asked, "Who is it?"
"…It's Zhou Cong."
"What did he come to me for?"
Xie Song naturally couldn't answer this question.
Ye Qiaoqiao was not prepared to hear the exact information from him.
She thought for a moment, then stood up, said something to her grandmother, and took Xie Song out to meet Zhou Chong.
Zhou Chong stood outside the nursing home.
He couldn't get in at all without any relatives inside.
He paced in the alley with an anxious look on his face.
"Ye Qiaoqiao." Zhou Cong looked up and saw her. Because of her appearance, he paused slightly, but this emotion was restrained in the blink of an eye.
"Is Gu Jin your uncle?" Zhou Cong asked with a dark face.
Ye Qiaoqiao spoke to him through the iron gate and nodded when she heard him. "He's my uncle."
"Gu Jin stole my business, did you know that?" Zhou Cong said bluntly, staring at her as if wanting to see Ye Qiaoqiao's reaction.
"Know."
Zhou Chong got this unexpected answer, his pupils slightly dilated, and he looked puzzled, "Why didn't you stop it when you knew it?"
"Why should I stop you?" Ye Qiaoqiao smiled.
She had never figured out how to deal with Zhou Chong before, but now she has an idea. Her uncle is just the first step.
"Zhou Chong, you should understand that you are the one who is sorry to me. You just need to accept the consequences of offending me." Ye Qiaoqiao said this coldly.
