After learning from Zhang Guoqing that it was confirmed, Zhou Jiao didn't need Miao Tianming to urge Heizi to come to her this time. She made an international call with Heizi's company.
The phone bill is very expensive.
This is also a last resort. Time is money. These days are equivalent to robbing money from financial tycoons.
This time, Zhou Jiao withdrew the funds from gold futures without hesitation and invested all of them in oil futures. She knew that the Iran-Iraq War was about to break out.
What surprised her was that this time her cousin did not ask her for confirmation again and again like he did last time, nor did he mention that the oil price was a bit high.
But she did remember one thing.
Miao Tianming had already received her letter and said that he had explained all the details to her in his reply. He estimated that Heizi should receive the letter within this week, so he asked her to pay attention to it.
Then let’s see what the reply letter says?
It’s really hard to explain over the phone at the moment.
Besides, she was willing to spend money, but the people at the post office were not happy. Didn’t you see that everyone was staring at her and Heizi? What were they doing?
You are really sick!
After listening to his wife's complaints, Zhang Guoqing echoed a few of her words and then asked the question that concerned him most: "Has Xiaoming found a manager?"
"I've already asked Lawyer Xue to contact me. He said he'd fax Heizi in a few days and let me pick one. I said forget it, it's too much trouble. As long as he likes the one he sees, that's fine."
"That's good. He keeps watching the stock market and delays his schooling." Zhang Guoqing hadn't said anything else. With a manager, his wife wouldn't have to work so hard. All she needed was one instruction.
I don’t know if it’s because the domestic situation is getting better, but the speed of international mail is getting faster and faster.
Not long after the phone call, Zhou Jiao received an overweight international letter from Heizi.
——A dozen thick sheets of letter paper, in addition to his thoughts, also contained a detailed delivery list. Of course, there was also a subtle mention in it.
Her uncles from the Miao family, whom she had never met, also went crazy with her and said they made a lot of money. They asked her what she wanted and told her to pay attention to receiving large packages before the New Year.
After reading the letter, Miao Lishan flipped through it again, grinning widely. "I didn't even dare write how much I made in the letter, but I guess I really made a lot."
Zhou Jiao nodded. They had money and could easily increase their capital later, unlike herself, who was trapped in China.
"Xiao Ming should be really used to it over there now. I wonder if he'll come back to visit his family? Are university holidays abroad the same as ours?"
Zhou Jiao laughed and shook her head. "He still has to take over his father's company, so his vacation will be even busier than when he's at school. Besides, he's invested a lot of money now, so he definitely won't be able to come back anytime soon."
"That's right, maybe your three uncles will follow you this time."
Zhou Jiao nodded in agreement. That was for sure. While speculation might make real business less reliable, who wouldn't want a lot of money? Especially when it came to oil, which was practically guaranteed.
Families like the Miao family, whose descendants are spread across developed countries around the world, naturally have the foundation and capital to get to know more financial professionals and may have access to more information resources.
Should she go out?
Miao Lishan noticed her daughter was dazed again and nudged her. "What are you thinking about?"
Zhou Jiao woke up immediately after being pushed by her and smiled, "Nothing. Mom, have you met Aunt Zuo recently?"
"What's wrong? Is she busy? Isn't she taking care of the children with your second sister-in-law? By the way, does Juhua want to go back for the New Year?"
Zhou Jiao had never considered this question.
She usually has to go to work and only goes there on weekends. Occasionally, when she has something to do on the weekend and can't go, she will find an evening to go there with Zhang Guoqing.
When they got there, Zhang Guoqing had nothing to talk about with Shitou, so she went over to hug the child and chat with Aunt Zuo and Lin Juhua, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
It was still a long time before the New Year, and she couldn't ask Lin Juhua about her New Year plans in front of Aunt Zuo. So she didn't want to ask.
"Aunt Zuo and the eldest sister-in-law of the Zuo family are taking turns to take care of the child. She must be thinking about going back. Before, she could even open a vegetable garden in the yard to play around, but now it's too bad to even grow vegetables."
When mentioning Lin Juhua's vegetable garden, Miao Lishan couldn't help laughing. "You used to say your second sister-in-law was lazy and afraid of doing too much. How is it now?"
Zhou Jiao laughed and shook her head, "People change."
When mentioning Lin Juhua, Miao Lishan naturally thought of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhang family. "How is Xiaowu's sister-in-law now?"
Zhou Jiao frowned subconsciously. "Lin Juhua said that before she came, she was busy at work every day. On weekends, Boss Zhang came back to visit his parents, and they didn't quarrel."
Miao Lishan's eyes widened with curiosity. "What does this mean? It's been over a year since we've been separated, and she's not anxious? Is this how Uncle Ping'an plans to live?"
"Who knows?"
Zhou Jiao didn't want to talk about these things.
For Zhang Guoqing's sake, if Zhang Guofu is short of money or has trouble at work, she is willing to help, but what about the emotional problems between the couple?
Haha...she was too lazy to interrupt.
Even when the three Ping'an brothers returned to their hometown to visit their grandparents during the summer vacation, she specifically instructed the children not to bring up this issue.
She was afraid that her mother-in-law would be sad if she mentioned these things.
If Zhang Lao Da and his wife had a good relationship, what would her parents-in-law have to worry about in their lives?
Not to mention her family, Zhang Laoer also lived a smooth life, not to mention the twins. The following year, both couples were admitted to the provincial university.
Twenty years have passed, and the children and grandchildren have all grown up. The Zhang family has really washed the mud off their legs.
Of course, she couldn't understand what else her parents-in-law couldn't let go of?
Especially when he came back on May Day, he heard that now only his second uncle and two aunts are left in the county town. Once Xiao Tao is admitted to university next year, his children and grandchildren will probably all run away.
She wanted to buy a yard for the old couple in the provincial capital, just like in the county town. Firstly, it would be far away from Huang Cuilan, and secondly, Zhang Laoer would also be transferred to the provincial capital after the New Year.
Look how well she arranged it.
The old couple can enjoy their old age in peace and quiet, and can also keep in touch with Zhao Dashan and others.
It's alright, the old guys have a drink together, the old ladies go shopping together. When there's time, they can go see the sights. On the weekends, the children and grandchildren gather around them again...
This day is so happy.
But they just refused!
She just couldn't understand what was so good about the county town.
Apart from being a little closer to Zhangjia Village, how else can it compare to the provincial capital with its many scenic spots and historical sites, and how else can it compare to the place where your children and grandchildren are not around?
Zhou Jiao was convinced by her parents-in-law.
But since they really don't want to leave, we can only let them do as they please. Being filial to them means doing what they want and making them happy.
I just wonder if her godmother Huang Huimin has found a yard? In any case, first find a yard and let them live there or not.
Having robbed someone else's old son, Zhou Jiao, as the daughter-in-law, still felt a little guilty. Now she could only spend more money to make their lives more comfortable.
