"Do you think I want to come looking for you? Just tell me where Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang are staying, and I'll leave right away!"
"Pah, you wish! Not just anyone can know about their family. Just say what you have to say, and I'll pass it on for you, but that's all I can do."
Yu Jiu had already spoken with Zhang Yan and knew that they were on bad terms. Yu Jiu wasn't giving her any face and wouldn't even answer her calls, so Zhang Yan was even less likely to give her any face.
"How can you all be like this? Yu Jiu won't even answer the phone! What about the winery? I came here to visit the winery. We had everything agreed upon beforehand, but now she's shirking her responsibilities. What does she take me for? What does she take my father for?!"
Tell her to come find me, or I'll expose their broken promises. Let's see who dares to cooperate with them again; they're completely untrustworthy!
Wu Qianqian was trembling with anger. After saying this long speech, she left in a huff. If Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang dared not come to find her, she would fight them to the death. Anyway, she didn't live here. At worst, she would make a scene and ruin their reputation, then she would go home.
Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang will have a lot of mess to clean up, but it won't harm her interests.
Since she had said that, Zhang Yan naturally had to help convey her meaning, lest she really cause trouble and cause problems that couldn't be handled, affecting the business, which would be difficult to resolve. Zhang Yan called Yu Jiu; now that both of their families had telephones installed, communication was very convenient.
After listening to Zhang Yan's words, Yu Jiu couldn't help but sneer. She thought, "If she wants to take this to the ground, let's see if she has the ability."
But if we're going to meet, then so be it. She'd like to see what kind of trouble she'll cause once we meet.
This time, Yu Jiu finally answered Wu Qianqian's call. Wu Qianqian asked Yu Jiu to come to her rented apartment at 8:00 AM the next morning. Yu Jiu agreed and said she would go.
However, the next day she didn't leave until 10:00. She strolled over to Wu Qianqian's place. Wu Qianqian was getting impatient waiting for her. She was so irritable that she smashed a lot of things. She originally thought Yu Jiu wouldn't come, but she didn't expect that even though she was much later, at 11 o'clock, she still came.
Wu Qianqian angrily accused him.
"I told you to come at 8 o'clock. Look at the time now, it's 11 o'clock. You're three hours late. Don't you have any sense of time at all?!"
Wu Qianqian wanted nothing more than to pounce on this woman and strangle her, but she remained calm and composed, showing no fear whatsoever.
"I did promise you I would come, but I didn't promise you I would come at 8 o'clock. It's too early, I can't get up, and I have a child to take care of. Unlike you, who are all alone and have it easy."
Yu Jiu smiled mockingly.
·····
"You fucking bastard! Who said I'm all alone? I have kids too!"
Wu Qianqian was so angry that she let it slip. After she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong and immediately covered her mouth, but it was too late. Yu Jiu had already heard it and hurriedly asked her questions.
"Oh? You have children too? Then why don't you stay home and take care of them? Why do you have to come all this way to destroy my family! I know you're divorced, but since you have children, aren't you afraid of embarrassing your children by doing such a despicable thing?"
How will you ever have the face to go back and see your children again!
She became a bit aggressive, and Wu Qianqian, enraged, put her hands on her hips and started cursing.
"It's none of your business. My child is doing just fine with his biological father, so it's none of your concern. Whether I've brought shame to him or not is none of your concern!"
"Really? If you weren't here to destroy my house, I wouldn't bother with you. Who do you think you are? A hot commodity? Someone everyone would flock to take care of? Stop daydreaming. I'd rather you go home and never bother us again!"
Yu Jiu, like a machine gun, relentlessly blasted her until she was a bloody mess.
Wu Qianqian couldn't get the better of Yu Jiu verbally, and as for a fight, she was too proud to fight Yu Jiu. Besides, she knew this was Yu Jiu's territory, and Yu Jiu could easily find a lot of people to help her. In the end, she would be the one who got beaten up.
So she held back and immediately changed the subject.
"Who wants to bother you? I need to see the distillery, lead the way!"
"Hmph, sorry, I'm in a bad mood today, so I can't take you. You'll have to stay here by yourself!"
Yu Jiu turned her face away and left, leaving Wu Qianqian fuming alone. Having no other option, she called Yu Jiu again to apologize and beg her to take her to visit the winery. Yu Jiu really was quite flexible and adaptable.
Yu Jiu sneered and slowly accepted her apology. Then she came over and took her to the winery.
After so many days of travel, we've finally arrived at the distillery. The location has been chosen, and it's mostly built; only a few details need to be finalized. Once it's completely finished, we can start preparing for many things.
Wu Qianqian's visit to the winery was not just an excuse; she genuinely wanted to see how big a winery Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang planned to build.
She didn't know until she arrived that their winery was enormous, covering hundreds of acres. It wasn't a small operation; it was almost as big as the winery her father managed. However, although her father was the factory manager, he didn't manage his own factory. That one belonged to the state, unlike theirs, which was privately built. She couldn't help but ask Yu Jiu.
How much did you spend to build this factory?
"It cost a lot; just buying these lands cost tens of thousands of yuan."
She wouldn't tell Wu Qianqian the exact amount, only giving a vague estimate. Wu Qianqian knew she wouldn't say, so she didn't press further, instead calculating on her own. She arrived at a rough figure: the winery would likely cost over a hundred thousand yuan by the time it was fully built!
Without going into too much detail, at least 100,000 yuan is needed. If the business fails and the produced wine doesn't sell, the losses will be devastating. A loss of 100,000 yuan is something most people can't afford. Even her family, with her father being the factory manager, doesn't have that much money, let alone the capacity to lose it!
The couple was indeed wealthy, and Wu Qianqian grew increasingly eager, her resolve to steal them away only strengthened. She was still considering the scenario of failure, but according to her father's analysis, it shouldn't fail.
If successful, such a large factory could produce countless bottles of wine. And if it makes money, it could be hundreds of thousands! For decades to come, they'd have money to spend without having to work!
"I'd like to go inside and take a look."
She had just been looking around the outside to see the overall picture; now she was going to go inside the factory to examine the details.
There wasn't much inside; many things hadn't been prepared in time. Taking her in wasn't a big deal, so Yu Jiu generously led her inside. Several managers accompanied them, leading the way and explaining the factory's current status and progress to Yu Jiu.
Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang had been here many times. She wasn't just an ornament beside Xu Zijiang; she was someone who genuinely had her own ideas and could express her opinions and make decisions. Therefore, the people below clearly understood that Yu Jiu was their other boss, not just their boss's wife.
Naturally, he treated her with utmost respect and obeyed her without question.
After the tour, Yu Jiu left with Wu Qianqian. Wu Qianqian wanted to have dinner with her, but Yu Jiu ignored her. Who would want to eat with her? It was disgusting.
"You've finished your tour of the distillery, and our hospitality is complete. Now you can do whatever you want; we can't entertain you any further. If you want to go home, then go back. If you don't want to go back and want to stay here for a long time, then we'll sign a new contract for the apartment, with your name on it."
You pay your own rent and return the money I paid, so you don't have to blame me if something happens to you in the house.
