Yang Yajing also knew that investigating taxes or falsifying accounts wouldn't shake the foundation of the Jiang family.
The biggest advantage of nouveau riche is that they have money and connections. People like the Jiang family, who have connections with the Xia family, will not be allowed to fall.
Although on the surface, the Xia family's investors suffered investment losses, their personal income would not be greatly affected.
Wait a while, until the storm passes, and you'll get exactly what you're owed.
For the Jiang family, the loss was only financial. The person in charge, claiming ignorance of their subordinates' actions, paid a few scapegoats to take the blame, paid back taxes and fines, and at most, gained a criminal record!
For ordinary people, having a criminal record makes it difficult to find a job, but for people like the Jiang family who own their own company and don't have to worry about finding work, it's not a problem at all.
When a wealthy family like theirs falls, the whole family suffers the consequences. So, at this time, people of the same ilk will band together to extricate themselves from each other's misfortunes.
However, this matter has caused quite a stir in the media, and the Chiang family's reputation will likely remain tarnished for a while.
If radical groups gather to boycott goods from Chiang Kai-shek's companies, it will only affect sales for a while and turn the annual report green.
Xia Changlong understood this principle, but his goal was not to shake any foundation, but to influence public opinion and sway those hesitant minority shareholders.
After this incident, Xia Changlong quickly cleared himself of any wrongdoing. An investigation would definitely not uncover anything about him; a comparison between the two sides would reveal whose money was cleaner.
But this is for investors and the general public. The shareholders don't care about whether it's clean or not; all they care about is whether there's profit to be made.
Those who invested in the Jiang family are now suffering losses. When Xia Junhu opposes Xia Changlong again, they will learn from this experience and carefully consider who to side with.
This is very beneficial for Xia Changlong to advance his investment strategy and gain more support from shareholders.
In particular, although these shareholders have small shares, they are not to be trifled with. Xia Junhu will definitely find a way to make up for those losses.
The Chiang family has already paid back taxes on all their liquid assets and is also facing fines, so they can't return as much profit as they used to.
If Xia Junhu wants to maintain this level of support, he has to make up for it himself. But he's not stupid; he won't give away his own money. He'll definitely make his two brainless younger siblings the suckers.
To put it bluntly, Xia Caixia and Xia Tengyun began to panic and act irrationally, selling large amounts of stocks to raise working capital in order to protect their investments.
No matter how much the Xia family throws away, Yang Yajing will take it all; she's not worried about diluting their influence.
But all of that was secondary. What Yang Yajing cared about most was Jiang Xuanxuan's reputation at school.
She usually flaunts her wealthy family background and uses the Jiang family to gain influence at school. Although many people try to curry favor with her, many others dislike her.
In society, the Jiang family's bad reputation will soon be forgotten, but in the small society of school, they are not so easily forgotten.
In the past, when Jiang Xuanxuan acted arrogantly, people would be wary and avoid her if they could. Now, if she tries to act arrogantly again, many people will bring up her family's tax evasion and falsified accounts.
The happiest person was Yu Yue. She felt she had finally gotten her revenge. When Jiang Xuanxuan's lackeys were making trouble for her, she just uttered a few words and pulled everyone to her side.
One or two people can keep their mouths shut, but Jinda University is so big, with thousands of onlookers. If everyone keeps talking, the gossip could drown Jiang Xuanxuan.
The principal also felt that such students were affecting the school's atmosphere, but since he had received sponsorship fees, he couldn't openly expel them.
Fortunately, Jiang Xuanxuan herself didn't want to be mistreated at school, and she wasn't really going to learn anything there. So, as a student in name only, she would sign in at class and leave, completely unconcerned about anything else.
Anyway, I can spend two years getting a graduation certificate, get a job in the Jiang family group as soon as possible, and live a leisurely life.
With the school quieter, Yu Yue could focus on her novel. She spent her days in the empty study room of the business school, eating, drinking, and writing—it was incredibly pleasant.
Her writing is excellent, and she has a very creative mind. She always earns money for her short stories of around 10,000 words each time.
I publish two articles a week, each worth over 600 yuan, earning 5,000 to 6,000 yuan a month, which leaves me with some money after deducting living expenses.
Compared to my previous life, where I graduated and became a teaching assistant, working hard full-time for a mere three thousand a month, this is much more comfortable.
At this point, Yang Yajing also began to brainwash her, encouraging her to start writing a novel and try to get selected for publication in print.
Back then, there weren't countless online literature websites. If you could publish a physical book, you wouldn't just make a few hundred or a few thousand copies; you'd become famous!
Yu Yue's personality is that of someone who doesn't like to be controlled. In his previous life, he went to work with his head down every day, and when he couldn't suppress his emotions, he would make a scene. He was also a headache for his boss.
And when she got angry, she snapped: "Fine, I won't do it! My income from writing online novels is better than this little salary you're offering!"
However, her online writing career started rather late, her income was unstable, and she liked to procrastinate and stop updating, so she had to apologize the next day and continue to work like a slave.
Therefore, in this life, Yang Yajing hopes that she can start early and become a big shot before the nationwide writing craze.
When writing online novels, everything becomes smooth sailing once you have a following.
However, when first venturing into writing a long novel, everything from choosing a topic to figuring out how to write it is a challenge.
Yu Yue took it to heart, but her already thin hair became even thinner as she grabbed it.
When she's feeling down, she wants to eat. When she eats, she gains weight. When she gains weight, she can't fit into her clothes anymore. When she can't fit into her clothes, she has to buy new clothes, which costs money, and her mood gets even worse!
This vicious cycle has left Yu Yue in a very bad state lately, with her pouting all the time. She's also on a diet, and when people are hungry, their temper flares up, and they can't control their eating.
However, her inability to control her mouth also had its comforting aspects, namely that those who wanted to cause her trouble were scared away by the sharp daggers that shot out from her mouth.
With those who were looking for trouble keeping their distance, she calmed down a bit and continued to struggle with her long story.
In her previous life, Yang Yajing was her loyal reader, probably because Yu Yue bought her a membership so she could cheer her on every day.
Yang Yajing remembers almost everything she has read. She knows which of her books will be popular and which are well-written but unfortunately missed the trend and remain lukewarm.
So, Yang Yajing invited Yu Yue out for a weekend getaway, treated her to a nice meal, and offered to give her some inspiration.
Yang Yajing chose the article that she thought Yu Yue wrote best, but which had missed the trending topic.
The hot topics that Yu Yue missed in his previous life have not yet arrived in this life. If Yu Yue can write that book now, it will surely become a new favorite among online books.
The current online writers are nothing more than Pi Zi Cai and Winnie; there's no situation where throwing a pebble could hit a whole group of online writers.
Therefore, seizing the opportunity and leveraging scarcity to increase value was the best way Yang Yajing could think of to help Yu Yue take off.
