Liu Tianyu said awkwardly, "I started out in the coal mining business, and I thought that if I wanted to accomplish something, I had to follow some rules, like middlemen. Besides, in the early years, directly contacting big shots without going through middlemen was a career-ruining thing to do!"
"Also, back in 2013, when movies and TV series were quite popular, I invested in some and filmed a few. Then some third-tier actresses approached me, saying they wanted me to give them a chance!"
"I'm a kind-hearted person and I can't bear to refuse anyone, so I accept all comers. However, I never interfere with what kind of movies the director arranges for her to film, because acting is not my profession, so I don't want to give any random advice."
Fourth Sister Xu Mengting laughed out loud: "What kind of time is this? You old-fashioned people are still sticking to the old ways?"
"Don't you know that old ideas are no longer applicable in today's society? Moreover, in my opinion, if you want to get rich, all you need to do is cheat and swindle!"
"Secondly, I can basically be honest with you now. From the beginning, I only intended to keep you hanging on, but I didn't expect it to last for several years, because I also didn't expect Xu Mo to be so important to you!"
Liu Tianyu glanced at Xu Mengting and then remained silent.
He started his fortune as a coal mine owner. He admitted that he lacked intelligence, but he never imagined that there would be people in this world who would take pride in cheating and swindling!
And this person is actually Xu Mo's sister!
Although he was furious, he knew that this was not the time to make threats!
If it were in the earlier years, given his volatile temper, he wouldn't be a coal mine owner if he didn't drive Xu Mengting into the pile!
"Young friend, the story begins many years ago..."
"Go ahead and speak."
Xu Mo pondered for a moment, then sat down on the sofa, deciding to listen to what Liu Tianyu had to say.
Liu Tianyu rang the bell, and the waiter brought the prepared dishes into the private room one by one: sea cucumber, abalone, bird's nest, shark fin... everything that flies in the sky, walks on the ground, and swims in the water was there.
After all the dishes were served, he poured Xu Mo a glass of Moutai, then poured himself a glass, completely ignoring Xu Mengting.
"Let's eat and talk!"
"good."
Xu Mo glanced at the Moutai, picked up the cup, and drank it all in one gulp.
As for what exactly Moutai tastes like, he couldn't describe it.
Because it was his first time drinking it, he couldn't quite describe it.
He actually thought the coal mine owner's attitude was quite good.
However, Xu Mo was also very curious as to why Liu Tianyu insisted on meeting him.
Liu Tianyu quickly gave his answer: "The reason I came to you goes back four years! At that time, I had just founded Yuanhang Group, but due to some issues, the transformation was not going smoothly. However, I had been investigating the matter and recruiting talents from all walks of life!"
“I’ve recruited people from prestigious universities, from major companies, and even some veterans who have been in the business world for over ten years. I hoped they could provide some help to Yuanhang Group, but the results were unsatisfactory, which resulted in all the money I invested going down the drain!”
"Luckily, I started out in the coal mining business years ago, otherwise I would have lost everything by now. Just when I was about to go bankrupt, I met a benefactor!"
"A benefactor?" Xu Mengting was puzzled and turned to look at Xu Mo: "Xiao Mo, the benefactor he's talking about wouldn't happen to be you, would it?"
"But four years ago, you hadn't returned to the Xu family yet. Before you returned, you helped a big shot like President Liu, which is truly enviable!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Mo couldn't help but recall what happened four years ago.
He thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out what he had done four years ago that had attracted the attention of the coal mine owner.
However, he said firmly, "I didn't meet you, Mr. Liu, four years ago! So, I don't think I'm your benefactor!"
"Maybe, I mean maybe, have you ever considered that you've contacted the wrong person?"
"Wrong person? No, no, no! I haven't gotten the wrong person!" Liu Tianyu immediately shook his head in denial and said again, "The person I'm looking for is you!"
"But I don't remember helping you at all four years ago! I can even confirm that we've never met before! It was only recently, after we won first place in the city, that I started to come into the public eye!"
Xu Mo looked serious.
Liu Tianyu then said, "I never said that you were my benefactor!"
Xu Mo fell silent again, then suddenly realized that President Liu seemed to be implying something.
He couldn't help but ask, "So, Mr. Liu, you have another purpose in contacting me?"
Liu Tianyu nodded: "Yes!"
Xu Mengting suddenly realized, "Oh, I see! But since you're not looking for Xu Mo, you must be looking for someone close to him, right? Is it to get in touch with our Xu family?"
Liu Tianyu scoffed, "The Xu family's total assets are only a billion. What are they? If it weren't for you, young friend, I wouldn't even give them a second glance!"
"However, I never expected that it would take so long to meet you, young friend! If I had known this earlier, I should have found you directly back then and asked you to introduce me to Senior Jin!"
Xu Mo's mind was a little foggy: "Senior Jin?"
Liu Tianyu nodded: "That's right, Senior Jin is my benefactor! That's why I wanted to get to know him... And you, among the children in the orphanage, are the only one who can catch Senior Jin's eye! So, I figured you must hold a special place in his heart! Maybe you're even his illegitimate child..."
Xu Mo suddenly realized, and then laughed out loud: "I knew it! How could a big shot I've never met be interested in a little kid like me? Oh, I see!"
Fourth Sister Xu Mengting asked from the side, "Xiao Mo, is the Senior Jin he mentioned the old man who sweeps the floor at the orphanage? But I heard Third Sister say in private that apart from his bad temper, that old man doesn't seem to be any different from the old sweeper."
Seeing that she had insulted Senior Jin, Liu Tianyu's face quickly darkened: "Xu Mengting! Who gave you permission to insult my esteemed person!"
Xu Mengting didn't expect Liu Tianyu to get angry, and said awkwardly, "I was just saying, why can't you take a joke?"
Xu Mo knew that Uncle Jin was no ordinary person, and turned to his fourth sister, Xu Mengting, saying, "Fourth sister, are you full? If you are, please go out and don't delay my conversation with President Liu!"
