Chapter 265 Refusing to Cooperate
Although the Wen family is wealthy, that was all earned when they were engaged in shipping. Over the years, the inflows and outflows in the accounts show that if you carefully calculate the total ledger, you will find that they have not made any money. On the contrary, they have suffered losses.
In other words, even though the wealthy Wen family seemed to have countless fertile fields and forests and their shops were doing a booming business, they were actually living off their savings.
How could Mr. Wen not be so upset that he wanted to vomit blood when he missed such a great opportunity to return to his main business and have money flow into his family like water?
If this matter had nothing to do with my family from the beginning, it would be fine. I would be envious but not feel so bad.
But this was actually a fat duck that flew to his home!
It looks like it’s about to be cooked and put into your mouth, but it disappears in a flash. You can imagine the psychological gap. Who can bear this?
Mr. Wen was so angry that he couldn't help but blame Mrs. Wen.
Mrs. Wen didn't take it seriously at first - after all, she didn't understand these things.
Mr. Wen was furious and explained everything to her in detail. Now, Mrs. Wen also felt heartbroken and depressed.
I feel like I have suffered a huge loss!
But Madam Wen didn't think the situation was irreversible. "Who in business would complain about too much money? If our family joins, with a larger investment, wouldn't we be able to earn more? It would also be good for them. I don't think they would refuse. Master, why don't you try to persuade them? I think it's 80% likely to work. They just want to hear some nice words."
After all, what happened last time was a bit unfair on our part.
But it didn't cause any bad consequences, so the past is in the past. If anyone still insists on it, wouldn't that be too petty?
More importantly, who can resist money?
If the Wen family joins, the investment cost will be greater and the profit will be greater. I don't think they will refuse, right?
Mr. Wen was moved and went to find Zhong Jing.
But Zhong Jing refused without hesitation, not even giving him a chance to say more.
He was too lazy to talk to such a person.
Sister Xiaoya is right. This is a person with bad character. There is no need to cooperate with him.
He is not a professional businessman. If he cooperates with such a person for a long time, there is no guarantee that he will not develop some evil thoughts. Wouldn't that be troublesome?
Besides, with the Zhou and Yan families, there is no need for any cost.
People are like this sometimes, the more they can't get it, the more they want it.
This is what Mr. Wen is like.
Now, when he heard that Zhao Liya and the others had arrived, he started to have new ideas.
She originally wanted to visit and say something nice to Zhao Liya, but before she could do so, Mrs. Wen accidentally ran into Zhao Liya there and couldn't help but get close to her.
Mrs. Wen didn't take Zhao Liya seriously.
Although there is no strict separation between men and women in Lingnan, and there are many women doing business and working, but if the man in the family is capable, why would he let a woman run around outside all day?
What's more, she is a girl.
She believed that Zhao Liya's family was very poor.
Since they are poor, they naturally need money, and naturally they cannot refuse when they hear that there is more money to be earned.
If this matter is accomplished, the master will no longer blame me. Mrs. Wen had a good plan in mind.
She couldn't stand Zhao Liya's rejection and was so angry that she started to speak without thinking.
Zhao Liya laughed out of anger, and her tone became even more indifferent: "I won't keep you now that Madam Wen has finished speaking. Please go ahead, Madam."
Mrs. Wen was even more embarrassed. "Miss Zhao, the Wen family is willing to provide the capital, isn't it also beneficial to Miss Zhao? Miss Zhao, you are acting on impulse. It will be too late to regret it in the future!"
"Oh, if you ever regret it, then just treat it as a lesson. It's not bad. Anyway, I don't regret it now."
Seeing that she was pestering him endlessly, Zhao Liya didn't want to talk to her anymore.
Madam Wen sneered, "In that case, Miss Zhao, take care of yourself!"
"Madam, take care!"
Mrs. Wen snorted, stood up and left angrily.
Zhao Liya didn't care. If she had known this would happen, why did she do it in the first place? The Wen family wasn't something they couldn't lose.
Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Hansheng came. As the sun gradually set, the two of them went out for a walk together, had dinner in the city, and then slowly rode out of the city and back.
The next day, when Zhao Liya met Zhong Jing, she mentioned that Madam Wen had come to visit him. Zhong Jing immediately frowned, revealing a hint of disgust as he said, "They're not done yet. That Master Wen sent people to visit me three times, but I didn't even bother to see him the last two times. I ignored them! Do you regret it now? Oh, what were you doing before?"
Zhao Liya smiled: "I think so too! Anyway, we are not short of money now."
Zhou Hansheng pondered, "This family is knowledgeable about shipping, but they also have bad behavior. If we reject them, they might become dissatisfied and take retaliatory action. Zhong Jing, send someone to give them a hard time."
Zhou Hansheng took this route very seriously after learning about it. It was a goose that would lay golden eggs! Once it ran smoothly, combined with the cooperation with Zuo Xiang, they would be able to bring in large sums of money, which would greatly alleviate their financial constraints.
This is very, very important for the big business he is currently busy with.
After all, the Wen family's strength in the local area cannot be underestimated. Even if Zhou Hansheng is capable and talented, he cannot show his abilities in public now.
If you reveal too much, it will bring disaster.
We naturally need to plan ahead for everything and nip any possible troubles in the bud.
Zhong Jing suddenly woke up, "Brother Zhou is right, we should be on guard against this!"
After all, the Wen family wasn't of good character, so who knew if they had any evil intentions. Anything that could threaten their ability to make money must be stopped.
The next day, Zhong Jing sent Zhong Ming on a trip.
Mr. Wen was still racking his brains to find a way to ease the relationship and gain cooperation, but he was threatened and warned, which was a bolt from the blue.
Mrs. Wen was even more furious, thinking that if she hadn't acted on her own, how could this have happened?
Madam Wen was furious and annoyed, and couldn't help but sneer, "They're so arrogant! In Suixi County, even the county magistrate would give our family some face, so who are they? Since the master understands the ins and outs of this, why don't you talk it over with the county magistrate? I don't believe the county magistrate won't be tempted! When the time comes, the county magistrate will have to get involved, and we'll see how they refuse, humph!"
Mrs. Wen's heart moved and she became happy: "Master, this is also a good idea. Then we can go with the county magistrate!"
"Just shut up! Be quiet!" Mr. Wen was furious and scolded Mrs. Wen.
General Zhong has sent people to warn us. If our family dares to do anything again, will he be polite?
