Chapter 52 Chapter 52 Thank you for telling me such a wonderful story...
Hongguo asked Shi Jinzhou for help, and had to ask Xiao Zheng to make the phone call. Xiao Zheng was really puzzled. According to the young Hong Kong businessmen's admiration for Brother Zong, this was not necessary.
Xiao Zheng laughed: "Sister, you are not afraid that Brother Zong will be jealous."
Hong Guo smiled and said, "A little bit. This is my own business, but I haven't helped Boss Shi with anything. You have a good relationship with him, so please ask him for me."
It was just to get some information, a piece of cake, so Xiao Zheng made the call immediately. Shi Jinzhou on the other end felt that Hong Guo was being too distant and felt uncomfortable.
Soon, Shi Jinzhou found out what happened and called Hongguo's home directly without going through Xiao Zheng.
"Sister, the couple surnamed Xiao who drove a sports car that you asked me to find out about took a cargo to Pingzhou, and then they were detained. The reason was that the cargo was not what they ordered, and they had to pay more than 100,000 yuan. This is a sky-high price for them. The car was not enough, and the person I was looking for could not be found. The child of that family ran away. It's a very poor family. How did they run into the local tyrants of the Yu family? This time it will be difficult, unless Brother Zong comes. In his eyes, my family's affairs are just ordinary matters. He will definitely be able to handle the things you inquire about once he comes."
Hongguo wanted to tell Changzong about this, but the affairs of the Xiao couple were different from those of Shi Jinzhou's family.
Shi Jinzhou's family is an ordinary family. The child of the Xiao couple is a fellow villager of Changzong. But the child's body and mind should be the same. He is only eight years old. What can he do?
Hongguo knew what was going on, but she had no way of snatching it back from the Yu siblings.
She asked Shi Jinzhou to continue to help her find out: "Wait for Changzong to call back, and I will tell him, Boss Shi, thank you."
Shi Jinzhou felt very depressed. Calling Zheng Wenli "Little Zheng" and calling him "Boss Shi" didn't make it right.
He said quickly, "Brother Zong always calls me by my name. Sister, please don't be so formal with me. I just started a business in the mainland last month and made more than 100,000 yuan, but I think it's very boring. Working with you guys is interesting even if I don't make money. Sister, you can call me Xiao Shi or Shi Jinzhou, but don't call me Boss Shi. After we get to know each other for a long time, you will know that I am not a money-shy person. I am still very down-to-earth."
People have come to this point, so it's not right to be polite anymore. Hongguo stopped being polite and called him Xiaozhou. Shi Jinzhou was very happy and said that that's how his family used to call him Azhou.
As soon as she hung up the phone, it rang again. Hongguo picked it up and it was Changzong calling.
Chang Zong was on the other end of the phone, anxious but pretending not to care, and asked, "Guo Guo, the phone at home was busy just now, are you busy?"
Hong Guo had been chatting with Shi Jinzhou for more than half an hour, and teased him deliberately: "You're not busy, I was just chatting with someone for a few minutes. What a coincidence that you called me at this time."
The other end of the phone fell silent. Hong Guo smiled and said, "Chang Zong, who told you to be dishonest with me? Just ask if you want to."
Gu Changzong on the other end of the phone said in a low voice: "Guoguo, we found two old friends, both of whom are dead. I miss you. I called home half an hour ago, but the line was always busy. I was panicking."
Hongguo felt a pang in her heart and regretted teasing him. It was through the phone line, not face to face, so it was easy for her emotions to go astray.
She quickly told him about the phone call she had just made, and because it was very important, she spoke for a longer time.
"I was waiting for your call, and you called. The Xiao couple might be your old friends. Do you want to go over and see them?"
The Xiao couple were not, but their son was. However, the child was only eight years old, and was only six in 1983. How could he be an old friend of Changzong? Hongguo did not want to embarrass Changzong, so she said they were the child's parents.
Gu Changzong was silent for a moment and made a decision. He asked Hongguo to go to Shenzhen to meet the Yu siblings. Since Lao Feng was not with them, it would not be a problem for them to meet him.
"Guoguo, I need to go somewhere else. Let's meet up in Shenzhen."
That's fine. Hongguo also wanted to go and take a look at the situation first and help Changzong. Helping Changzong would mean helping their small family and helping herself.
This time they were going to Shenzhen again. Before Hongguo even mentioned it, Xiao Zheng took the initiative to go: "Sister, don't leave me alone. If I don't participate in your affairs, I will be marginalized soon. I want to go. I can carry your things for you and hold your child."
Hongguo had no choice, and she didn't dare to take the train with her child alone, so she went with Xiao Zheng.
Before leaving, she told her second aunt that she wanted to do jade business in Shenzhen and investigate the market. She had good reasons and her second aunt had no reason to object. She gave her a lot of advice and even sent Hongguo to the station to wait for the train.
Shi Jinzhou came to pick them up at the station. Hongguo held Diandian in the back seat, and Xiao Zheng sat in the front passenger seat. Shi Jinzhou and Xiao Zheng showed off: "Sister calls me Xiaozhou, just like you, right?"
Xiao Zheng laughed and thought to himself, is he usually as silly in Zong Ge's eyes as Shi Jinzhou is at this moment? No wonder Zong Ge doesn't want to talk to him at any time.
Hongguo, Xiao Zheng, Shi Jinzhou, and Diandian were not brave enough to go to Pingzhou, but Shi Jinzhou said they didn't need to go to Pingzhou because the Yu siblings were in Shenzhen.
"Yu Hai's brother Yu Shan is sick. I asked the hospital and it's a hereditary blood disease. Their parents have never had the disease, so it's inherited from the previous generation."
Hong Guo really didn't expect that Yu Hai might not have detained the Xiao couple to find their son for money.
Neither she nor Xiao Zheng and Xiao Zhou were capable of taking on the responsibility, so they decided to wait for Chang Zong to come before deciding what to do.
They stayed in the same hotel as last time. The little one refused to play in the room and wanted to go out. Hongguo was a little tired, so she asked Xiao Zheng to take the child out to play.
Not long after Xiao Zheng left, the waiter knocked on the door and said that there was a visitor and the guest invited her to meet him in the restaurant.
At this time, morning tea was over and it was almost time for lunch. There were few people in the restaurant, so they met in the restaurant. Hong Guo was not afraid and just followed the waiter.
The woman waiting for her was Yu Hai, who was a few years older than Hong Guo. She looked very capable, with her hair combed into a shiny bun without a single strand of hair flying out of place. She was completely different from Hong Guo's lazy and casual look.
Tea had been ordered on the table, but Hong Guo refused to drink it even though it was clean. She didn't trust Yu Hai. In fact, Hong Guo wanted to ask what she had done to Xiao Sun, but she held back.
Hongguo thought Yu Hai would test the waters first, but she came straight to the point. As soon as she opened her mouth, Hongguo looked around. Fortunately, this table was at the corner, and even the waiter didn't come over even if she didn't greet him.
"Old Feng is really amazing. It wasn't until my brother and I avenged our parents and took back our family business that I was convinced that he was different from us. He seemed to have a big flaw. He would do whatever we told him to do. He had no opinion of his own, but that made him useful."
"Is that how you think of him?" Hong Guo interrupted in an unfriendly tone.
Yu Hai's expression did not change, and he told Hong Guo not to get excited: "I have different experiences from you, and we have different perspectives on things. It's hard to say who is right or wrong, but you should have discovered that your Gu Changzong is different from ordinary people, right?"
Hong Guo looked helpless: "I found out, he is better than most men, he takes care of the house and outside, earns money, takes care of the children and does housework, he listens to me in everything, of course he is different from ordinary men, what's the problem?"
"That's not what I meant." Yu Hai knew that Hong Guo didn't want to talk about Chang Zong, so he talked about Lao Feng.
"I avenged my brother and made the business the largest one. But Lao Feng said that my pursuit was not worth mentioning. I had already avenged myself and I didn't expect to get married and have children. So making money was not a big deal? I didn't take it seriously. Didn't Lao Feng die? Only after he died did I know that he left something for me."
Yu Hai opened her expensive handbag, and her slender fingers with rings and bracelets took and put down some of the jewelry. Then, a few photos appeared in front of Hong Guo. The photos showed some gold, silver, jade and antiques.
"Old Feng gave me an address and asked me to dig it up. It's not an ancient tomb, and it's not a tomb robbery. It was buried decades ago during the chaos of war. A wealthy family could not take so much with them when they fled. How did Old Feng know? I still don't understand it, but I understand what he said before. The wealth I pursue is indeed not worth mentioning in his eyes."
Hongguo was indeed surprised. When it came to finding treasure, Meng Qingdai and Changzong could do it before, but neither of them was so generous. Old Feng might have known that he was going to die, so he gave Yu Hai a large sum of money all at once.
Hong Guo returned the photo to her: "You have earned such a huge fortune, and you are still not satisfied?"
"I am not satisfied. My brother is sick. He has a hereditary blood disease that is difficult to cure. I have just realized that compared with my only family, money is really not worth mentioning. I have always been thinking, Lao Feng is so powerful and has money at his fingertips, so what is a person like him pursuing? It's a pity that Lao Feng died. If I had figured it out earlier, I would have protected him no matter what."
Hongguo was heartbroken. If it was useful, keep it. If it was useless, he could die at any time. Lao Feng must have been discouraged, so he went to his death calmly.
Hong Guo said: "Thank you for telling me such a wonderful story. I am waiting for Chang Zong. He will be here in a few days. My Chang Zong is very powerful. I don't think you will be stupid enough to make things difficult for me, right?"
Yu Hai bit his lip and said, "I dare not. Before he died, Old Feng gave me advice that I should not mess with your Changzong. Old Feng is dead now, so I don't have the confidence to mess with Gu Changzong. But I am determined to get Xiao Boyan."
"So, if you don't see him, you don't plan to let his parents go?"
Yu Hai smiled: "You have found out so much, Hongguo, you are here for the child, right? Why don't we cooperate? I do have some skills. If you don't have a plan, I do. What is more important than money is life. As long as my brother can be cured, you can live a long life in the future."
Hong Guo was ashamed, but Yu Hai had no idea that with her conceited approach, she would get nothing she wanted in the end, just like Lao Feng, who would rather be shot dead by the police on the spot than take another way to survive. Yu Hai still didn't understand that if Lao Feng and the others were pursuing life, they would not have died.
Hong Guo said firmly: "If you have a plan, just do it. I won't cooperate with you, nor will I stop you. But don't bother me. I have Chang Zong, but you don't have Lao Feng."
Yu Hai asked Hong Guo to reconsider it and left first, but Hong Guo would not reconsider it.
I went back to the room and waited until noon. Xiao Zheng hadn't come back yet. I guess he was eating outside with Diandian. Hongguo was full from eating and wasn't hungry, so she took a nap.
I didn't sleep long today, only more than half an hour, then went to the restaurant to eat something. When I returned to the room, I heard a noise from Xiao Zheng's room next door.
Hongguo knocked on the door hurriedly. Xiao Zheng opened the door and saw Diandian fiddling with a large suitcase. She went in and asked Xiao Zheng to close it.
Hongguo thought the suitcase was quite nice and thought it was probably not cheap, so she asked how much it cost.
"This is good for carrying things when going out. Where did you buy it? Is there a smaller one? I'll buy a smaller one later."
Xiao Zheng waved his hand, indicating that Hongguo had ears, and then took her to the bathroom. When he opened the door, he saw a child of seven or eight years old huddled in panic.
"Who is he?" Hongguo was very scared. This is a child, how could she bring him back? She might be mistaken for a human trafficker.
Xiao Zheng said, "Sister, he is the child of the Xiao couple you were looking for. I took the kid out to play and happened to see him rummaging through the garbage dump looking for food. He asked me a few more questions and I found out his identity. I simply brought him back. Wouldn't it be better to ask him face to face?"
