"In the early 20th century, an American businessman named Charles Ponzi used a scheme of making money out of thin air and robbing Peter to pay Paul to attract more investors by promising initial investors a 40% return on their investment. Because Ponzi promised high returns, he attracted more than 30,000 investors and received $15 million in investment within just six months. Investors regarded him as a god and believed that they could make a lot of money by believing in him. However, within just one year, Ponzi went bankrupt and was sentenced to prison for failing to deliver on his promises."
Zhou Yun listened, completely stunned.
Xu Tong was displeased and retorted with a dark face:
"What nonsense are you talking about? Don't think you're so great just because you've read a few books. The president of the mutual aid association is an amazing person. He's not short of money at all, so how could he possibly cheat people out of money? Besides, what relationship do I have with Zhou Yun? Would I cheat her? As for you, you haven't even married into the Dai family yet, but you dare to interfere in their affairs. You really know how to flatter yourself."
Xu Tong spoke without thinking, which displeased Zhou Yun.
She was dissatisfied with Chu Yu, but Chu Yu was Dai Donglin's girlfriend after all. If Xu Tong didn't respect Chu Yu, it meant she didn't respect the Dai family.
Zhou Yun's expression was rather unpleasant.
Xu Tong realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly tried to make amends:
“Zhou Yun, we’ve been friends for so many years, would I lie to you? I’m here because I have a way to make money and I wanted you to make some too. If I become rich in the future, will you be envious? This young girl, how can she sow discord at such a young age?”
Zhou Yun is protective of her own. With Dai Donglin not at home, she would never allow Chu Yu to suffer injustice at the Dai family home.
She said coldly:
"Alright, I've changed my mind. I'm not going to any mutual aid groups anymore. You can go wherever you want."
Xu Tong looked embarrassed, and before leaving, she glared fiercely at Chu Yu.
"Auntie, I'm so sorry."
Zhou Yun waved her hand. She wasn't someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong. Chu Yu's reminder was entirely out of good intentions.
"You've read a lot, and you speak very eloquently. Auntie believes you."
Zhou Yun invited Chu Yu to dinner, but Chu Yu declined, saying she needed to pack her things to go to Hong Kong with so many employees. Chu Yu had a lot to do.
Zhou Yun was stunned. Chu Yu had already expanded her business to Hong Kong? The girl was really outstanding. If Dai Donglin really got together with her, he could leave the business to her and go to the army himself, and the couple could work together inside and outside the army.
They managed to get by without missing a single job and made a living without missing a single opportunity; it truly didn't interfere with anything.
