How could Ren Rongzheng not know what kind of person Ren Naiyao is?
He had already prepared the three hundred yuan, which made his bottom line clear. If she asked for even a penny more, the deal would fall through.
But how could she be controlled by him?
"Director Ren also said that three hundred yuan is a lot for ordinary workers, but it's not much for you. I'm not asking for five hundred yuan, and I have a reason for it. Director Ren and Miss Ren have heard of the name Cui Qinghe, right?"
It would be fine if he wasn't mentioned, but once he was mentioned, the faces of both father and daughter became uglier than shit.
Ren Naiyao had already stuffed the three hundred yuan he had taken out back into his pocket.
"He is my partner now. He came to the market to check me out. If my business is good and the quality of my clothes is up to standard, he will enter into a long-term cooperation with me.
But at this time, your wife hired people to cause trouble at my stall, saying that my clothes were not only of poor quality, but also damaged the skin when worn. As soon as this was said, many customers wanted to return the goods.
If those two scoundrels hadn't been so incompetent, your wife would have succeeded. If she had succeeded, my long-term cooperation with Cui Qinghe would have been ruined, and the loss to me would have been immeasurable.
If it was a simple malicious competition between colleagues, it would be fine. But the key point is that she is my stepmother who has watched me grow up. I have left the Ren family, but she still won't let me go. She has such vicious intentions. Do you think 500 yuan is too much for me?
Well, I had hoped to settle the matter peacefully because you came in person, but it seems my good intentions have ultimately been in vain. In that case, please go back and don't say anything else. Let's just wait for the court to begin."
After saying that, Ren Rongzheng was about to close the yard door and drive them both out.
"Ren Rongzheng, I came here with sincerity, but you're so heartless. I'm your father after all, and we're still living in a military compound, yet you kicked me out. If this gets out, how can you look good?"
You're even going to blackmail me?
Just as Ren Rongzheng was about to say something, Zhan Beiqin spoke up, "Father-in-law, Rongzheng is young and naive, why bother with her?"
Hearing Zhan Beiqin speak, Ren Naiyao forced himself to calm down and said, "It is true that her stepmother was wrong in this matter. I came here with sincerity, but..."
"Father-in-law, please don't get angry. I can see that you came here with sincerity, but Rong Zheng has just started her business. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. This is her most critical starting stage.
Her stepmother's actions undoubtedly meant to cut off her path to entrepreneurship. Normally, she would have just scolded her a few times, but to cut off someone's financial resources was to cut off their livelihood. Rong Zheng was not only angry but also heartbroken. The pain of being stabbed by your family could not be made up for with money.
After Zhan Beiqin said this, Ren Naiyao lowered his head in shame, and Ren Rongxue didn't dare to look up. He really regretted it now.
"My stepmother was terribly wrong, but since my father-in-law has come to visit, I have to give him some respect. I think what he said just now is quite right. Since the incident has already happened, let's both take a step back.
We all have to respect ourselves, so let's not go to court over such a small matter. Rong Zheng wants five hundred, and my father-in-law wants three hundred. So why don't we both give me some face and compromise, four hundred? How about that?"
After Zhan Beiqin said this, he looked at Ren Rongzheng and gave her a look. The subtext of that look was: That's enough, otherwise you won't get any points.
"Okay, since Director Ren readily agreed to my first two requests, the only thing we haven't settled on is the money. My husband has spoken up, and since we're in this military compound, I'm afraid the neighbors will laugh at me if things get unpleasant. I'm willing to compromise, and it depends on Director Ren's opinion."
Ren Naiyao looked at Ren Rongzheng, then at Zhan Beiqin. It seemed like the couple was acting together, singing in unison.
But at this point, if he doesn't act accordingly, it would seem like he is narrow-minded and deliberately picking on the younger generation.
"Well, since you've asked, I'll give you four hundred, but I only brought three hundred today."
"That's fine. As Rong Zheng just said, I still need to trouble my father-in-law and his family of three to write a letter of guarantee, and I also need to accept my stepmother's apology in person. We will have a chance to meet again soon, and then my father-in-law will give me the remaining hundred."
"Okay, then we've settled the matter. Rong Zheng won't say anything more. My dear son-in-law, you're a soldier. I believe you'll keep your word."
"must."
Afterwards, Ren Naiyao left the three hundred yuan and walked away with Ren Rongxue. After they left, Ren Rongxue began to complain, "Dad, why did you really agree to this? That couple teamed up to set us up."
"If you hadn't been so clever and done this, would they have been able to pull off their trap?"
Ren Rongxue lowered her head after hearing this.
"I've given birth to two daughters, and neither of them is worry-free. Now that this matter has been settled, if you and your daughter don't stop, you can just leave the Ren family!"
"Dad, please don't say such cruel words. I was wrong. I was really wrong. I will never dare to do it again."
Seeing that Ren Naiyao was really angry, Ren Rongxue hurried forward to coax him. Although Ren Rongzheng did not have clairvoyance and sharp hearing, he could almost guess their conversation from their expressions.
"Have you seen enough? If you have, close the door and go inside."
After hearing Zhan Beiqin's reminder, Ren Rongzheng withdrew his gaze and closed the yard door.
"You need money to build a factory. Every penny counts. Four hundred is a lot."
"Four hundred is not a small amount, but it doesn't seem like much coming from Ren Naiyao. I originally wanted one thousand, but I was worried that if I asked for too much, he would just walk away. I even kindly gave him a 50% discount, but he still couldn't accept that."
"You are the one who is greedy and wants to swallow an elephant." Zhan Beiqin complained, then pushed his wheelchair into the house.
