Chapter 178 True Gold Afraid of Fire



Li Guifang felt a chill in her heart after hearing this. Business that came to her door was either a scam or a pyramid scheme! This idiot Li Jianghai was being targeted!

"Don't you have a fucking brain?" Li Guifang was so angry that she grabbed Li Jianghai's collar.

She poked his nose with her finger and said, "You're just a jerk who's been shoveling coal in the boiler room for decades and can't even read a few words. Why should a big boss who just returned from overseas help you get rich?"

Don't you even consider your own weight?

Li Jianghai's hands trembled at the shout, and the big unity he had just counted scattered again.

His face flushed red, and he hurriedly squatted down to pick up the money, still saying, "You don't understand this! Mr. Liu, that kid, thinks highly of me..."

"Do they think highly of you?" Li Guifang raised her voice and slapped his hand away. "Why should they think highly of you? Is it because you, Li Jianghai, are so capable and obviously extraordinary, or is it because you are smart and clever?

Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? You're just an old-fashioned guy with wrinkles all over your face. You have no culture and no connections. What do people want from you?

So you can shovel coal straight? So you can do Tai Chi with ease?

Li Jianghai was so embarrassed by the scolding that he stiffened his neck and retorted, "What do you know? He and I are close friends regardless of age difference. He saw that we got along well, so he gave me a hand now that he had the chance!"

What's more, Mr. Liu said that doing business nowadays requires character!

I, Li Jianghai, have worked in the factory for 20 to 30 years. Who wouldn't say I'm honest and reliable?

When Li Guifang heard this, she was furious. "Oh my! These swindlers must have been blinded by the Horse King to have picked up a naive and wealthy old darling like you in the park!"

A few years ago, there was a big boss who went overseas to develop and said he would come back to build his hometown. Didn’t that person have some connections?

Did my father die early, or did my mother get married?

Why did he ignore all his relatives and friends, and refuse bank loans, and instead asked for help from you, an old helper in the park whom he had only known for two days?

Is he overflowing with love and has nothing better to do, so he comes to give you money, or is he too tired to pay and wants to find someone to suck it up?!

Li Jianghai felt that Li Guifang was making a big deal out of nothing, "Could you please stop being so suspicious?

What kind of person is Mr. Liu? He just returned from overseas and is knowledgeable and experienced. What can he want from me?

I just thought I was a good person and wanted to help me and start a legitimate business together. Why do you have to think the worst of me?

Li Guifang was so confused by this novel train of thought that her voice changed tone as she spoke, "You are really like an old sow wearing a bra - one set after another!

What kind of magic potion did that Liu guy give you to make you protect him so wholeheartedly?

Still have character? Li Jianghai, have you drunk horse urine a few times and don't know your own weight?

You are just an old worker who has shoveled coal in the boiler room for half your life. You have no education and no background. The big boss who returned from overseas has so many capable and resourceful people but chooses you instead. Isn't it obvious that there is something wrong?

They're the ones who cheat 'honest people' like you. When the time comes, they'll make you bankrupt and you won't even have anywhere to cry. I'm telling you!"

Li Jianghai still didn't believe it. He stiffened his neck and retorted stubbornly, "You just like to think the worst of people. You've already said that I have everything. Why would a big boss like Mr. Liu waste his time on someone like me?

I think you just can't stand seeing me doing well, and you just pour cold water on me all day long!"

When Li Guifang heard this, she instantly flew into a rage. She kicked Li Jianghai with both legs and lashed out at him, her voice blaring like a machine gun, "Oh, I can't bear to see you doing well?

Li Jianghai, after flying for a few days, have you forgotten that you need to walk on your feet?

I have lived a hard life with you for most of my life, and I hope every day that our family can get better. How could I not want to see you do well?

I suspect that the guy surnamed Liu doesn't want to watch you being sold and help others count the money!

Let me ask you, when he returns from overseas and really wants to find a partner, he won't go to places where business elites gather and resources are concentrated.

Is it reasonable for someone to talk to you in a park where old men and women are strolling and dancing in the square?

Does he think the old men in the park are more business-minded than the young ones, or does he have no good intentions and is targeting old, confused people like you? Which of these two statements do you believe?"

Li Jianghai was stunned by the barrage of questions, but he still argued stubbornly, "Then... maybe it's just fate.

We met in the park, we got along well, and he thought I was a nice person. I don’t have a job, so we decided to work together!

Li Guifang listened and looked at Li Jianghai with a mocking expression, "Fate? This fate is really a coincidence!"

Li Guifang pulled Li Jianghai over and sat him down on the other side of the bed, staring at him intently. "Come on, let's have a good talk today."

She stretched out her rough fingers, breaking them off one by one and counting them. "First, did that Liu guy show you a proper contract? The kind that spells out in black and white how much to invest, how much to share, and how to calculate losses?"

Li Jianghai rubbed his hands and hesitated: "I haven't even paid the money, how can I sign the contract!"

"That means no!"

"B-But..."

"Don't worry, no buts, that's no problem! Let's move on to the next question!"

Li Guifang sneered and opened her second finger. "Second question, did he take you to the project factory? Did he let you see real gold and silver goods?"

Li Jianghai became excited when he heard this question. "I've been there, of course I haven't. You haven't seen how luxurious that office is..."
