"Dad, our family has a 10-year fixed-interest loan. Now I need to go to the countryside. Do you think it's appropriate for you to give me 2,000 yuan?"
2,000 yuan might be a huge sum for an ordinary family, but the Jiang family is no ordinary family.
Back in 1955 or 1966, although the old man had incorporated all of the Jiang family’s cotton mills, department stores and money shops into the public-private partnership, the government’s annual dividends alone amounted to 80,000 yuan!
This doesn't even include the subsidies the old man usually gives them.
Jiang Si was familiar with the plot, and she knew that the valuables in the house had already been moved away.
Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse!
Based on her understanding of her scumbag father, he must have at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan on him for cash flow.
With so much money, you think you can get rid of her with just 2,000 yuan? Is she some kind of despicable person?
Faced with Jiang Si's questioning, Shen Xiuwen remained calm, "The situation is special now..."
"Too."
Jiang Si seemed to suddenly remember something and quickly interrupted him.
"The situation is special right now, and we really can't keep that much money in our accounts."
"How about we put it all in my name?"
"Anyway, I'm going to the countryside in a few days. It's safer to keep the money in my name, so it won't fall into the hands of those rotten-hearted bastards who covet our Jiang family's wealth!"
Upon hearing this, everyone reacted with varying expressions.
Jiang Si pretended to be blind and asked a question that struck at the heart.
"Dad, what do you think?"
Shen Xiuwen: "..."
How about that?
He didn't think it was very good!
Jiang Si angered Shen Xiuwen to the point of near collapse with just a few words, but he couldn't refute her and could only patiently explain to her.
"Everything at home has been taken care of, so you don't need to worry about that..."
He spoke for more than 10 minutes, but Jiang Si kept repeating the same sentence.
"Dad, tell me the truth, how much money do we have left in the account? If you don't tell me, I'll go to the bank to check myself tomorrow!"
Helpless, Shen Xiuwen could only take out another savings account with 10,000 yuan.
He originally wanted to bargain, but Jiang Si didn't give him a chance to speak at all.
As soon as she got the passbook, she quickly changed the subject.
"How about we write another letter severing ties? That would be safer."
Upon hearing this, Shen Xiuwen paused, then looked at Jiang Si with a complicated expression.
In fact, he truly loved this daughter.
However, she behaved eccentrically and acted too willfully, repeatedly trampling her own dignity underfoot!
Otherwise, the father and daughter wouldn't have become so estranged.
But she is, after all, his own flesh and blood...
Originally, Jiang Si only asked the question with the idea of giving it a try. If it worked out, great; if not, so be it. Anyway, she wouldn't lose anything today.
Unexpectedly, after a moment of silence, Shen Xiuwen nodded in agreement.
This is truly an unexpected delight!
Jiang Si didn't have time to think about whether he had a change of heart or had other ideas. She quickly took out paper and pen and wrote down the letter severing ties with him.
They signed the document and pressed their fingerprints on it.
"Alright, now you can rest assured."
Jiang Si smiled and said, "This is nothing."
Don't worry, they'll have to give back all the Jiang family's assets they swallowed up!
Speaking of property, Jiang Si recalled something.
The reason why the scumbag father's family is still reluctant to leave, aside from the heroine's halo, is fundamentally due to one word—greed!
Shen Xiuwen suspected that what he obtained was likely only the Jiang family's assets on the surface.
After all, with Old Master Jiang's shrewd and calculating mind, how could he not have left himself a backup plan?
If he really didn't have a backup plan, why couldn't he find the land deed for the Jiang family's old house after searching all over the house?
Furthermore, Shen Xiuwen speculated that those things were very likely in the hands of his third uncle!
Third Uncle's surname was Zeng. He was the old man's sworn brother, and the two had a life-or-death bond.
Knowing this won't help. Don't be fooled by the fact that Uncle San is over sixty years old now; he used to run a shady business.
He has retired from the criminal life, but the group of people who followed him back then still follow his every word.
Originally, Shen Xiuwen had planned to give up, but unexpectedly, his third uncle's health had been deteriorating day by day since last winter.
If it weren't for this, even if Shen Xiuwen had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn't dare to make a move on his third uncle.
In fact, Shen Xiuwen's guess about the family property was not wrong at all.
Before his death, Grandpa Jiang did indeed entrust half of his fortune to his third uncle.
Unfortunately, after learning that the original owner of this body had gone to the countryside, the third uncle was so angry that he died, and the treasures were soon taken by his scumbag father's family.
Thinking of this, Jiang Si's fists hardened.
His gaze swept over the family in front of him, finally settling on the stepsister, Shen Qingqing.
Okay, so you're going to play it this way?
Okay, then I'll play a big game with you!
Shen Qingqing couldn't stand it anymore when she saw Jiang Si asking for this and that but not mentioning the job transfer at all.
"Dad, that job..."
"Yes, yes, and there's work too. Sisi, have Qingqing go to your workplace with you tomorrow. You two should get the job transfer paperwork done as soon as possible."
"Okay, here's the money."
Shen Xiuwen asked, puzzled, "What money?"
"Dad, how can you be so forgetful? What money? It's obviously money for buying a job."
"These days, a job opening is incredibly hard to come by, and this one is an office job. Selling it for 1,000 yuan isn't unreasonable, is it?"
