Chapter 368 Yang Xiumin was cheated by her family
Jiang Zhengxi nodded repeatedly, "Aunt, this is what we mean."
"How much will that cost?"
"Well, Brother Jie said that the total investment should be around one million RMB, and he will pay half, and we can take the remaining half as shares."
"Then you two will pay 500,000?" Jiang Xinbai frowned as he spoke.
Yang Jinsheng shook his head and said, "Why do I feel that your friend is not so reliable? You haven't even left yet and he's asking you to invest money. Is he trying to cheat you?"
Jiang Zhengdong shook his head. "That shouldn't happen. He and I were close friends when we were in China. He wouldn't lie to me."
"That's hard to say. You said it was in the past." Jiang Xinbai was still a little worried. The world is so vast and the money is gone. Once it's been stolen, it's gone. There's no way to get it back.
"This..." After hearing what his aunt said, Jiang Zhengdong became a little uncertain.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhengxi suggested: "Aunt, uncle, how about this, my brother and I can contribute about 150,000 of the 500,000, and you can lend us the remaining 350,000. I will mortgage the house in my hometown to you, is that okay?"
"Oh, your parents will beat you to death. It's not that I don't want to lend you money. So, how about we wait until you get abroad and see how it goes? If you think it's okay, I'll transfer the money to you. International remittances are very fast now. What do you think?"
Jiang Xinbai thought about it and decided to wait until they arrived abroad and took a look at the situation before making a decision.
The Jiang Zhengdong brothers looked at each other, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go abroad first and contact each other later."
On October 8th, Jiang Xinbai received a call from Jiang Zhengdong from abroad.
"Hello, who is this?"
"Aunt, it's me, Adong." Jiang Zhengdong said excitedly on the other end of the phone.
Jiang Xinbai was also very happy when he heard the familiar voice, "Oh, it's Ah Dong, how are you and Ah Xi doing now? Your parents said last time that you have adapted well there, and you have even learned a few words, right? That's amazing."
"Hehe, it's nothing, just a few common phrases that I still need to learn! Aunt, it's seven o'clock in the evening at home, right?"
Jiang Xinbai raised his wrist and glanced at his hand and replied, "Hey, it's 7:20, how about your side? Is it evening too?"
"It's a little after one here, six hours later than home, it's daytime now."
"Oh, I know, it's called jet lag, right!"
"Yes, you know a lot, aunt. Well, aunt, the phone bill is a bit expensive, so I'll make it short. We've seen this supermarket by Xu Weijie, and it's feasible. Do you think you can lend us the money?"
Jiang Xinbai raised his eyebrows and replied, "You have seen it and it is reliable, right? Then give me an account number and ask your uncle-in-law to transfer the money to you tomorrow."
"Really, aunt, you agreed?" Jiang Zhengdong couldn't believe it. He made this call with the expectation of being rejected. After all, when they were still in China, they all thought that his aunt's words were a tactful rejection. This time he called just to show his appreciation.
"Of course it's true. I believe you. Tell me, I'll write down the account number." Jiang Xinbai said as he took out a piece of paper from the drawer.
"Oh, okay, thank you, aunt..."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xinbai handed the note to her husband, "Jinsheng, please transfer 500,000 to this account tomorrow."
Yang Jinsheng, who had just received the note, was stunned. "Isn't it 350,000? How come it's more?"
Jiang Xinbai smiled and glanced at her husband, explaining, "My second brother and his wife love their son very much. Last month, they told me that if Adong and Axi called to borrow money, they hoped I could lend them 500,000 yuan, and they would use their house in their hometown to mortgage it to me. Now I still have the property rights of their three houses!"
"Wow, didn't my second sister-in-law always disagree with them going abroad? Why is she willing to let us lend money to Adong and the other two now?" Yang Jinsheng was really curious.
"Everyone is out now, so what's there to disagree with? Since you are out now, you can only work hard, and your family members have to support you."
"Yeah, that's right. Xiumin and her husband called yesterday and said they are working at her sister-in-law's restaurant. They are paid two to three thousand yuan a month. Once they have worked for three years, they will be fine."
"Hey, didn't you say before that Zhang's son didn't go to Sakura Country, but also worked in a restaurant and earned more than 10,000 yuan a month? How come Xiumin and her husband only make 3,000 yuan?" Jiang Xinbai thought to himself that the gap was too big!
"That's different. Old Zhang's son has a formal visa to go to the Sakura Country, so of course his salary is good. Xiumin and the others are illegal workers, and their salaries are about the same over there. It's impossible that her sister-in-law is cheating them, right?"
Yang Jinsheng smiled and shook his head, thinking that after all, Xu Heping was his biological brother, so it shouldn't be the case.
"That's right."
But these words were proven wrong four months later. One day, Yang Jinsheng received a call from Yang Xiumin. As soon as he picked up the phone, he heard her crying voice.
"Third brother, we were cheated, wuwu..." Yang Xiumin's sobbing voice reached Yang Jinsheng's ears through the telephone line.
Yang Jinsheng was anxious and asked quickly, "What's wrong, Xiumin, don't just cry, say something!"
Yang Xiumin sniffed and whispered, "Third brother, my eldest sister-in-law is really a bad person. Today, I talked to the Chinese people nearby and found out that a couple like us should earn at least 5,000 yuan a month, and she gave us 2,000 yuan less."
"Ah, is that really the case? What about Heping? What did he say? After all, she is his sister. If he doesn't step forward, why would he ask you to do so?" Yang Jinsheng became angry as he spoke.
"No, he also had a big fight with his sister and brother-in-law, and now he's calling home to talk to my mother-in-law!"
Hearing her say this, Yang Jinsheng was somewhat relieved. At least the couple were on the same side. After thinking for a while, he asked again, "So what do you want to do now? Do you want to continue working at her house?"
"I don't know either, but I was very angry. After my eldest sister-in-law was exposed by us, she said on the spot that she would give us the money, but my eldest brother-in-law was not very happy about it. He said that we were greedy and if it weren't for their help, we wouldn't even be able to earn the three thousand yuan. Anyway, he looked down on us. Third brother, I really regret going abroad. I didn't expect that the first person to deceive us would be our relatives."
At this time, Xu Heping came over with his head down and whispered, "Xiumin, I don't know what my brother-in-law said to mom. Mom, she, she asked us to apologize to my sister and brother-in-law."
