Chapter 220 He ran away with the basin in his hand
Du Anrao glanced at Du Desheng, then at Xi Jingyue, and had a hunch that something very important must have happened between the two of them that she didn't know about.
[What's going on? When did you two stand aside? Uncle just now clearly disliked Mr. Xi. ]
Du Desheng: “…” Nonsense, how could I possibly stand on his side? It’s all because of you, a heartless person!
Xi Jingyue: “…” There’s no need to be so straightforward.
Although he was surprised, what the two men said made sense. Du Anrao had always felt that he was not cut out for business, and he bought the two plots of land simply because he didn't want to benefit Du Tianci and his son and the people behind them, and let them cause trouble for the two old men.
Now that someone can help her solve this worry, why not do it?
"Since my uncle has said so, I have no other objection. But this way, I won't be able to pay you back the money I owe you right away."
As soon as Du Anrao said this, Du Desheng's face darkened first: "What are you going to return? Do you think your uncle is such a stingy person? What he gave you is yours. There is no need for us to distinguish so clearly between grandfather and grandson."
"Uncle, that's 10 billion, not 10 bucks."
"Whether it's 10 billion or 10 dollars, it's all the same to Grandpa."
“…”
"My great-uncle is indeed the top figure in the family's rich pyramid. Such Versailles words coming out of his mouth are not surprising at all, and they are not out of place at all."
"???" What does "top of the pyramid of rich people" mean? Does this mean he is a rich man?
The expression on Du Desheng's face fell instantly, and the hand holding the crutch felt a little itchy. He wanted to teach this unfilial grandson who couldn't speak a lesson every minute.
Compared to him, Qin Yanqing was enjoying the show. He stepped forward, held his wife's hand, and said with a faint smile, "Your uncle and I are not young anymore, and we don't know how many more years we can stay together. These worldly possessions cannot be brought with us when we are born, and cannot be taken with us when we die. It would be great if you can use them. Besides, if you don't return these things, or return a certain amount, it means you are deliberately alienating us, and we will be angry."
Since both of them had said this, Du Anrao didn't want to insist any further. She just thought to herself that her grandparents were so good to her, so if she came across anything good in the future, she would give it to them.
Du Desheng and the other man felt warm in their hearts again. Du Anrao specially made bracelets and jade pendants from the raw stone of Fortune, Longevity, Happiness and Happiness, which contained spiritual essence and could nourish the wearer's body and prolong life, as wedding gifts for them. They had already learned the details from Du Bixiao before they came back.
Their thoughts were similar to Xi Jingyue's. At their status and age, money was no longer the most important thing; health and longevity were.
The gift that Duanrao was going to give them was more valuable than millions of gold, not to mention that it was a token of filial piety from his own young generation.
After all, our own little cotton-padded jacket is the best. When we were not familiar with her, she was eager to help others without asking for anything in return. Now that we are familiar with her, if we give her a little something, she will find ways to give them gifts in return.
Unlike those blood relatives who claim to be of the same lineage as him, they are like a black hole that can never be filled no matter how much money is given to them. Even if nothing is given, they will still fight for it!
"Your Grandma Qin is right. Grandpa and Grandma have accumulated wealth for most of their lives. If you don't help spend more of it, will it benefit those ungrateful people who are trying to piss off me and your Grandma Qin?"
Du Anrao was stunned for a moment, thinking that Uncle Awen had reported the matter of Du Tianci's family to the old man in advance. He smiled politely and did not touch Du Desheng's sore spot.
Xi Jingyue watched from the side for a while and couldn't help laughing: "You don't need mine. You forgot that I already used the 500 million to buy two jade brands from you."
"What jade brand?" Du Desheng and the other man's attention was instantly attracted.
Xi Jingyue and Du Anrao bought the two jade pendants when they were about to leave the auction house. Du Bixiao was not present at the time and did not have time to inform them, so the two did not know about this in advance.
Du Anrao touched his nose and said awkwardly, "I auctioned off a piece of stone tonight and took out a pretty jadeite rough stone from it. Apart from keeping a part of this rough stone that is useful to me, the remaining material can just make two more jadeite hanging plaques..."
Du Desheng was struck by lightning. The first thing he remembered was that Du Bixiao had indeed mentioned that in addition to being able to make a pair of bracelets and a jade pendant from the stone, the remaining material could also be cut into a pair of small plaques.
When he thought that this boy could also hear the child's thoughts and must know the effects of these two brands, he became even more angry and dizzy.
Duan Rao didn't notice his strangeness yet, and reiterated: "I thought about it, and I still think that for those two small signs, 500 million is still..."
"Five hundred million is still too little!" Du Anrao hadn't finished her words when Du Desheng interrupted her with a sullen face, "You want to buy such a good thing for five hundred million? That's wishful thinking. It should be at least ten billion!"
"grandfather?!"
"I thought so too. So when I was working with An An before, my original plan was to split the profit 70% and me 30% and her 70% but she didn't agree."
Du Desheng: “?!!” Oh my god, this guy is waiting for me here!
However, the 37 split...
Du Desheng twitched his lips. Even though he was dissatisfied with this guy, he had to admit that this share was much more than the so-called 10 billion.
"…Then why did it become four or six again?"
"Grandpa, I took the initiative to suggest adding a little bit. I always felt that the share seemed to be taking advantage of Mr. Xi."
Du Desheng: “…” You are also taking advantage of him now, the only difference is how much you are taking.
Xi Jingyue glanced at the two of them and groaned for a moment, "However, what Mr. Du said does make sense. Since the profit sharing ratio has been changed to 40% to 60%, you should add some money to buy the two brands. I will transfer another 500 million to your card later, so remember to check it."
Duan Rao was dumbfounded on the spot, and after a while he said in a panic: "No, I didn't mean that. It really doesn't cost that much money. Don't listen to my uncle's nonsense. Those two signs are not worth that much money. Don't fight me!"
The uncle who had said the nonsense was hit hard. Looking at his precious granddaughter who was so ungrateful and obsessed with refusing someone's offer of money, he wished he could turn around and go to the woodshed to find a fork to roast the pig that was trying to dig up their cabbage.
Du Desheng, who was hit hard, decisively sought comfort from his wife: "I always feel like our cabbage is about to run away with someone else, carrying the pot."
Qin Yanqing patted his wife's head soothingly: "If this pig is willing to use the gold-inlaid jade basin to coax our cabbages, it's not impossible. However, it's too early to say this now. It's better to rely on ourselves than to rely on others. Let's try to live a few more years to keep an eye on this pig, and don't let him bully our cabbages."
