Chapter 1796 It turns out that I was the one being guarded against (2)
What else could Shu Jie do? Besides, this was not a big deal. It would not cost much to invite the third branch to come to Beidu for a New Year’s gathering. At most, it would be like a family trip, so he agreed.
But what Shu Jie did not expect was that Ruan Jianguo did much more than that.
In the past two years, most of the Ruan family’s business had been handled by Ruan Hao. He knew exactly how much the hotel had earned. However, when the financial settlement was done at the end of the year, a big problem was discovered. There was a sum of nearly 300,000 yuan that was unaccounted for.
He checked and found that it was Ruan Jianguo who had used it.
300,000 yuan was a lot of money in that era. Ruan Jianguo was usually controlled by Shu Jie and Ruan Linshi. He could not spend big money, and no matter how much small money he spent, it would not be 300,000 yuan.
Ruan Hao did not inform Shu Jie in advance, but talked to Ruan Jianguo alone.
At first, Ruan Jianguo hesitated and refused to tell the truth, saying that he had made other investments, but he refused to tell what kind of investment he made.
Seeing his hesitation, Ruan Hao suspected that he had raised a child outside, but then he thought that his personality was not like that, and his clingy attitude towards Shu Jie was not fake, so he should not have raised a child. Just
when he was puzzled, he heard from Ruan Lin that Fourth Uncle Ruan planned to buy a house in Beidu at the end of the year.
If the second wife of the Ruan family wanted to buy a house, Ruan Hao would still believe it. After all, Ruan Chi and Ruan Jun have already entered society and can make money. It is not impossible for them to buy a house in Beidu with an effort. However, the fourth wife of the Ruan family, Ruan Feng, is studying in a medical school, and it is a five-year program. This is much more expensive than the average family to support a college student. Ruan Qing is still in high school. Supporting a high school student and a college student really costs money everywhere.
The price of a house in Beidu is more than 3,000 yuan per square meter, which is easily tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. Where did the fourth wife of the Ruan family get the money?
Ruan Hao already had a plan in mind. He talked to Ruan Jianguo again, and this time he was really surprised.
Ruan Jianguo was called Ruan Dakuang because he was really generous, especially to his brothers. Everyone in the Ruan family knew his character. Although he was a bit extravagant in the past, he was still stable and didn't make too much trouble. Shu Jie
turned a blind eye to his financial support to the other three branches of the Ruan family and didn't say much.
But this time, he secretly took out 300,000 yuan to give to the fourth branch so that they could buy a house in Beidu without informing the family.
What surprised Ruan Hao even more was that from Ruan Jianguo's tone, he didn't intend to show favoritism. He planned to give 300,000 yuan each to the second and third branches so that they could buy a house.
When Ruan Hao heard Ruan Jianguo say this in the office, he was such an eloquent person, but at that moment he was really at a loss for words and didn't know what to say.
He looked at Ruan Jianguo who was standing in front of him, asking him not to make it public, saying that as long as he didn't make it public, his family wouldn't know about it. He was silent, and after a while he said, "Dad, I won't keep this a secret for you."
"Xiaohao, that's your uncle. His family is in a difficult situation now, as you can see. As long as you don't tell anyone about this money, no one in the family will know about it, not even your mother." Ruan Jianguo said.
"Dad, this is not a matter of knowing or not, but..." Ruan Hao said, but before he finished speaking, the door of the office was pushed open, and the person standing at the door was the one that Ruan Jianguo wanted to keep secret.
