After hearing what Jiang Li said, Jiang Xu suddenly felt much more cheerful.
After thinking about all the feasibility and the wealth that would be required, he smiled and said, "Li Li is so smart. It would be a waste of your talent if you didn't come to Hong Kong to make a living."
"Uncle, you think too highly of me. I just analyzed the current situation."
"Compared to my cousin, I'm still far behind."
After hearing this, Jiang Heng smiled and said, "My cousin is very good, just as good as me. I will definitely go to the inland area to see her if I have the chance."
"I have lived for so many years, but I have not visited the place where my ancestors lived. It is a waste of my life."
"But I heard that the inland areas are under very strict control now. Do you think people would welcome me if I were to invest in the inland areas now?"
Jiang Li thought for a moment and said, "Wait a little longer. After all, changes will happen in the inland area within three years. If my cousin goes there again, he might get some unexpected gains."
It's almost 1975, so there's no need to rush.
"Okay, I'll listen to you and wait. It's just right for me to gain a foothold in Hong Kong in the next few years. Then I won't have to worry about family matters when I go inland."
"Well, it's a bit chaotic here right now. I've seen quite a few gangs here. My cousin just returned, so it's best to think about the consequences of your actions."
"We adults have nothing to fear, but the next generation won't."
“There are no eternal friends in this world, only eternal interests.”
"As long as everyone is well fed and watered, no one will cause trouble for themselves."
"You said so?"
Since ancient times, tall trees attract the wind and are envied. Whether in modern times or in ancient times, people in power will not allow one company to dominate the market.
Being strong is good, but sometimes it is better to be low-key so that people won’t know your true intentions.
After saying so much, I don’t know if my cousin understands what she means.
There is gold everywhere in Hong Kong now. If you are not stupid, you will not just go and rob it.
If she could get away now, she would like to get a piece of the pie here.
After all, she is also a mortal and won't think that too much money is a waste.
Jiang Heng pondered over Jiang Li's words and said with a smile: "I know what to do now. Thank you for your reminder, cousin."
"You're welcome, cousin. We are all family. My mother will be happy if you live well."
"On the contrary, we are living well, and you and uncle can rest assured."
"Is it?"
Jiang Heng nodded, "That's right, we should try to keep in touch in the future. Once the inland is open, we won't have to avoid each other like this anymore."
"But you've been out for so long, would you like me to send a telegram back for you?"
Jiang Li thought for a moment and said, "It will be a few days. I know what's going on. Don't worry, cousin."
"Okay, come find me if you need anything."
"Well, I won't be polite with you."
At this time Jiang Xu handed her the pistol and said, "Keep your own things away, and use the one your cousin gave you here."
"After all, you were the first to develop it. If someone sees it, your position will be exposed."
Jiang Li took the gun and replied: "I know, no one can see it except our family members." As for those who saw it before, their graves were already covered with grass.
After that, the family chatted for a while and then had dinner.
Jiang Li was not in a hurry to go home after dinner, but followed his uncle to the study first.
Jiang Xu first took out a small box that he had prepared. When Jiang Li saw it, she knew it was a gift for her.
Looking at the glittering jewels inside, Shen Li smiled and said, "Is this too expensive, uncle?"
"What's the point of spending money? Your brother and I have worked hard for so many years, and we only make money but have no place to spend it."
"Now that I have you, I naturally want to give you the best."
"When we return to the Beautiful Country, your uncle will transfer a manor to you. As for your brothers, I will not be in charge of them anymore."
"The Jiang family has always had a rule that boys have to work hard on their own, and girls have dowries and property."
"I have no control over your cousin's share, but all of your uncle's property will be given to you in the future."
Jiang Li smiled and said, "Uncle, leave your things to your future grandchildren. I will fight for what I want."
"Okay, put your hand over here and I'll show you."
Seeing that he was determined to watch, Jiang Xu sighed and said, "Go ahead."
When Jiang Li heard his uncle's tone, he knew that he was hiding something from them.
After she took her uncle's pulse, she finally understood why he had that expression.
After confirming the diagnosis, Jiang Li frowned and said, "Uncle, you have a liver problem. Did you know about it a long time ago?"
Jiang Xu took his hand back, "Yes, I knew it a long time ago, and I have been taking medicine to control it. Since you can see it, I won't hide it from you. My disease is cancer, but it can be controlled."
"I've seen many doctors abroad and they all said there's no hope. I can only try to live longer. At least I have to see your cousin get married before I can leave with peace of mind."
"Don't tell him either. I don't want him to worry."
"Your cousin has suffered a lot over the years. He has been without his mother since he was young. I acted as both his father and mother to raise him."
"I owe him too much, and I feel sorry for him. From now on, he will have to bear the burden of the Jiang family alone."
"I have lived enough. After I have avenged the Jiang family, I will be worthy of my ancestors a hundred years later."
Jiang Li's eyes were red. "Uncle, your illness can still be cured. Please believe me, okay?"
"Let's not take western medicine anymore. I'll go out and buy some medicine for you tomorrow. Combined with my unique acupuncture, you'll live a long life."
Jiang Xu said in a gentle voice: "Li Li, don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"I had never thought about seeing you again, but now that I know you are all well, I have no regrets."
"It's just that after uncle is gone, uncle hopes you can take care of your cousin."
"Although he usually looks cool and handsome, he is actually a bit childish."
"In this generation of the Jiang family, your cousin is the only one left. You cousins should help him if you can."
"Uncle knows you have this ability, okay?"
Jiang Li choked up, "Don't worry, uncle. I won't let you die. I will help my cousin and won't let you worry. As long as I, Jiang Li, am alive, I will not let the Jiang family fall into desolation."
She had already made up her mind that after returning, she would let her fifth brother Sidun leave the inland.
Fifth brother is as smart as she is. Even if she is not here, with fifth brother and cousin helping each other, nothing will happen here.
I just don’t know whether my mother will be willing to do so.
Jiang Heng, who was holding fruits outside the door, was in tears at this moment. He never knew that his father was so seriously ill.
In order not to worry him, I didn't tell him anything.
As a son, he felt like a failure.
I also hated myself for not paying more attention to my father's situation. If I had known earlier that he was abroad, I wouldn't have made my father so angry.
Wiping the tears from his face, Jiang Heng turned and left. No one knew...
