Chapter 367 Investing in a Supermarket
"Smuggled?" Jiang Xinbai glanced at Yang Jinsheng, "Jinsheng, did Xiumin tell me how they got there?"
Yang Jinsheng shook his head. "He didn't say that much. He just said that they paid 100,000 yuan, and then someone took them out. They didn't spend money to sneak across the border, right?"
"Uncle, which country is Aunt Xiumin going to?"
"Spain, what's wrong?"
Jiang Zhengdong smiled and explained, "Uncle, I asked my friend. Generally, you need to transfer when you go abroad. The journey is long, so the cost is also high. If 100,000 is the cost for one person, then the agent will help you get the work visa."
"No, the 100,000 is for two people." Yang Jinsheng remembered that his younger sister was talking about 100,000 for two people.
"Two people, so they must have smuggled in." Jiang Zhengdong said with certainty.
"Ah, one person spends 50,000 and still sneaks in? How much does it cost to apply for a visa plus various fees?" Jiang Xinbai was really curious. It's not cheap to go abroad!
Jiang Zhengdong thought for a moment and replied, "Well, to a nearby country, such as Sakura Country, the total cost should be around 40,000 or 50,000. The price has been rising recently, so it should be around 50,000 or 60,000. A farther country, like Italy, where we are going this time, will cost more than 100,000. Moreover, the formalities are complicated and time-consuming. We want to go directly there."
"Go straight through? Can they pass?" Jiang Xinbai was curious. Is it so easy to pass through customs between countries?
"Of course not, aunt, but we paid in advance, which is the so-called buying the pass, you know! We gave the money to a middleman and asked them to take us away. There are many people going together, so it's also good." Since he wanted to go abroad, Jiang Zhengdong naturally found out everything.
"Ah, aren't they said to be very strict in foreign countries? How can you let people go just by paying money? What if you are stopped? What should we do? Go home?"
"That can't be possible. Since we've paid, we have to go through. If we're really unlucky and get denied entry, then we'll just have to wait. We'll get through after a few attempts. They all got through that way. Anyway, the people who took our money will find a way."
Yang Jinsheng said thoughtfully: "So you are just trying to pass the level?"
"Yes, that's what you said, uncle. My good buddy also went there that way. If he can't get through this side, he can go to the other side. Anyway, there are opportunities. They have many connections. As long as you pay, they will do everything for you."
Jiang Xinbai understood everything after hearing this. She asked with some hesitation, "Wouldn't it be illegal for you to leave? It would be inconvenient to do anything without a formal identity, right?"
Jiang Zhengdong looked at his aunt in surprise, "Aunt, you also know about illegal residents? Yes, those who go abroad in the way we do are all illegal residents. If we are found by the Immigration Bureau, we will be deported..."
"Ah, deportation, I told you it's dangerous. You said that if you are deported, your children won't be able to become officials in the future. You're leaving them with a criminal record!"
At this moment, Sun Ju suddenly became smart and brought up the future of her grandchildren, hoping to prevent her two sons from going abroad.
"Mom, you haven't heard me finish! It's okay even if we are caught by the Immigration Bureau. As long as someone is willing to guarantee us and pay the fine, we can do it. You have to know that money can work everywhere, and we don't need to worry about things that haven't happened yet." Jiang Zhengdong looked very relaxed.
Sun Ju rolled her eyes at him. "It's easy for you to say that. Pay the money? The little money you earn has been given to others. What if no one guarantees you?"
"Mom, my brother has already said that as long as we have money everything can be done. Don't worry, his good friends have taken care of everything. We just need to go." Jiang Zhengxi really couldn't help it. His mother really was the one who kept badmouthing them. Was that fun?
"Money, money, are you going to invest all the money you've saved over the years?" Sun Ju looked at them seriously. If they dared to say yes, she would explode.
Jiang Xinbai also saw it. She pushed her second sister-in-law Sun Ju's hand and comforted her, "Second sister-in-law, I think it's good that they want to go abroad to try their luck. You, don't worry so much. Mom, why don't you take your second sister-in-law out for a walk? The night market here is still very lively."
Chen Cui'e understood what her youngest daughter meant, and immediately stood up from her chair, took her second daughter-in-law's hand and said, "Aju, old man, let's go out for a walk together and let them talk about things. We can't understand here."
“Hey, I’m not, I…” Sun Ju didn’t want to leave, but her mother-in-law kept pulling her hand. Her strength was so great that she didn’t even look like someone in her seventies. In the end, she was pulled out of the house.
In the corridor, Sun Ju looked at her mother-in-law complainingly and said, "Mom, why did you pull me out? Look, I was thinking that Xiaobai could persuade Adong and the others, but now it's me who has to persuade them."
Chen Cui'e rolled her eyes at her. "You, you're getting older and older. When you were young, you followed Baojia to the black market to resell things. Why didn't you say it was dangerous?"
Sun Ju blushed, "Mom, how did you know? Did Baojia tell you?"
"Do I need him to tell me? I can tell from the way you guys are doing, but I didn't say much because you guys have been so cautious. Look, isn't it just like you guys are doing business in the black market when Adong and Axi are going abroad now? So you, just relax and let them go! Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."
How could Sun Ju not understand this? She could only sigh, "Well, let them be! They won't listen to me anyway. Mom, didn't we say we were going to the night market? Let's go!"
Inside the house, Jiang Xinbai saw them leave, then turned to look at Jiang Zhengdong, "Tell me, why did you wink at me just now?"
Jiang Zhengdong chuckled, "Aunt, you really understand me. Well, actually I want to discuss something with you." As he said that, he glanced at Yang Jinsheng.
"Hey, why are you still looking at your uncle-in-law? Just tell me if you have something to say. Is it about the expenses for going abroad? It's okay. If you don't have enough money, your aunt will lend it to you." Jiang Xinbai was very generous.
Jiang Zhengdong glanced at his aunt, shook his head, nodded, and said, "Yes and no."
"Hey, you're still playing dumb. Tell me clearly, is it true or not?"
"Hey, brother, why is it so difficult for you to explain something? Let me tell you. Aunt, uncle-in-law, it's like this. Your brother's good friend is called Xu Weijie, and we all call him Brother Jie. He opened a small supermarket abroad and made a lot of money. Now he wants to expand the scale, and then he wants to get us to invest..." Jiang Zhengxi explained the whole thing thoroughly.
Jiang Xinbai nodded thoughtfully, "I understand what you mean. You don't have much capital right now, so you want us to lend it to you. Is that what you mean?"
