Chapter 331 Cleverness Backfires



“Old Bao, if we take over the company and put it all in both our names, then all this money will be ours,” Zhou Huilan said in a low voice.

Bao Liu's eyes darted around, his face turning cunning, and he made a gesture as if he were about to cut off someone's head.

"You mean find someone to take them to..."

Zhou Huilan was terrified by him and punched him hard, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I say I was going to kill them?"

Zhou Huilan only wanted to use a scheme or cheat to seize the company by force. But Bao Liu actually wanted to kill them. She was an honest farmer, perhaps not a good person, but she hadn't done anything too bad.

How could someone do something so frightening?

Zhou Huilan stared at Bao Liu for a long time, as if she didn't recognize him.

Bao Liu quickly smiled and said, "You scared me? I was just saying it casually. I would never actually do such a thing."

Zhou Huilan breathed a sigh of relief. "I was thinking that since we've joined the company, we'll have access to all sorts of things. Why don't we replace the entire company with our own people and bring all your relatives from your hometown—aunts, uncles, nephews, and cousins—we'll feel more at ease having our own people running the company! Your family will definitely side with you. When the time is right, we'll kick Zhou Fangchun and Zhou Jian'an out!"

"You're one of those who'll roll with me," Bao Liu thought to himself.

Bao Liu laughed and put his arm around Zhou Huilan, praising her, "That's definitely good. I know my family. They're not as heartless as Zhou Jian'an and Zhou Fangchun. They're taking my money, so they'll definitely listen to me. When the time comes, my family will do all the dirty and hard work. You can just relax and be the boss's wife. You won't have to worry about anything. Once we get the company, we'll buy a villa and a Mercedes-Benz in Beijing. I'll drive you around and let you enjoy a life of luxury."

Zhou Huilan was touched by the wonderful future described by Bao Liu.

She smiled and sighed happily. No wonder she was smart from a young age.

Bao Liu was being harassed by debt collectors, and his family was struggling to make ends meet, so Zhou Huilan decided to come to Beijing to beg for money.

Fortunately, Jiang Meifeng doted on her and forced Zhou Fangchun to hire her into the company and even make her the company's legal representative. How could she have such a good life?

When the Bao family arrived, she arranged positions for them, making the whole family obey her orders. She made those who looked down on her fawn over her, bowing and scraping to her all day long.

And her annoying mother-in-law, when she finds out that she can earn 100,000 a month, she will definitely be shocked. Now that she has money and is in good shape, let's see if her mother-in-law still dares to look down on her.

Zhou Huilan was overjoyed and felt incredibly relieved. When she got home, she told Zhou Fangchun about bringing Bao Liu's relatives into the company.

Despite her lack of formal education, Zhou Fangchun, having served as a leader, knew that any organization that started hiring its own people wouldn't last long.

If she were to manage the company, she definitely wouldn't let her family members in.

That idiot Zhou Huilan is really asking for trouble. She's trying to sideline her and Zhou Jian'an and turn the mutual aid association into her own property.

Zhou Fangchun almost laughed.

Firstly, the mutual aid society's accounts are not transparent at all. She and Zhou Jian'an earned five million this month, but only gave Zhou Fangchun one hundred thousand. The rest of the money was given to them privately by various specialists or members.

Secondly, Zhou Fangchun originally wanted Zhou Huilan to take the blame. Because of Bao Liu's matter, Zhou Fangchun had a conflict with the Bao family. If she could send those troublemakers to jail, it would be a way to avenge her.

What else could she possibly be dissatisfied with?

Zhou Jian'an listened without saying anything. To be honest, he didn't intend to harm his older sister, but she went too far. Not only did she suffer misfortune herself, but she also wanted to drag the entire Bao family down with her.

"Sister, why don't you reconsider? Back in Baojia Village, didn't you often argue with your mother-in-law and have disagreements with your sisters-in-law? Why bring all these people here?"

Zhou Huilan felt that Zhou Jian'an was plotting against her, so she wouldn't listen to any of his advice.

“Jian’an, you don’t understand. No matter how fiercely a family quarrels, they are still family. Behind closed doors, everyone can still get along harmoniously. I see you hiring so many employees and paying them such high salaries every month, it’s such a waste. You should give the money to your own family. Family members won’t say anything else, they will definitely do their best. I guarantee you, you can rest assured!”

“This…” Zhou Jian’an picked up a piece of pickled vegetable. It wasn’t that he didn’t want the Bao family to come in; he just felt he had let his older sister down.

After all, they were siblings. Unlike Zhou Fangchun, he couldn't bring himself to be ruthless. The thought of his second sister being arrested by the police and them leaving the mainland next month filled Zhou Jian'an with unspeakable guilt towards Zhou Huilan.

Zhou Fangchun smiled:

“Jian’an, what your elder sister said is right. Family members are always easier to deal with than outsiders. We can’t let outsiders make money; we have to think about our own people too. We’ve both met the Bao family; we feel at ease using them.”

Zhou Jian'an's expression was indescribable. Zhou Fangchun and the Bao family had always been at odds. Was she planning to drag the Bao family down with her?

However, everyone has their own interests at heart, and Zhou Jian'an had already made arrangements to escape. They were just waiting for the right time to abscond with the money.

Oh well, since we've already screwed over Zhou Fangchun, it doesn't matter if we screw over a few more people.

Zhou Jian'an readily agreed.

Zhou Huilan slapped her thigh and said excitedly, "Look, Fangchun is the most sensible. What did I say? Family is family. Look at the three of us siblings, we always think of each other. Isn't that the best proof?"

The three of them laughed together, each with their own hidden meaning.

These days, home renovations are simple, and there's no such thing as formaldehyde. You can move in right after the renovations are finished.

The new courtyard house has been renovated for two months, but Chu Yu hasn't moved in yet to let the smell dissipate. The furniture produced by Xibao using the Nix production line has also been delivered.
