Chapter 248
After hearing this, Jiang Meishu was also a little surprised. She really didn't expect Jiang Lamei to be so fast. They called the other party at 10:40.
It's only about twelve o'clock now.
Did this fly over?
Perhaps sensing Jiang Meishu's confusion, Jiang Lamei sighed, "I've been traveling from Guangzhou to Shenzhen to look for Xiaojuan, and I'm staying at a guesthouse on the border of the two cities."
"After you called your mother, she contacted me."
It can be said that Jiang Lamei has never had a good night's sleep since Zhao Xiaojuan ran away from the train. As soon as she closes her eyes, her mind is filled with the scene of her daughter being abducted.
This made her unable to sleep.
So much so that in the past few months, she has been constantly traveling between Guangzhou and Shenzhen, not missing any corner, just to find Zhao Xiaojuan.
To be honest, if Zhao Xiaojuan hadn't been the child she had conceived and given birth to after years of marriage, she really wouldn't have wanted to care about her.
I have never seen such a disobedient child.
Jiang Meishu then realized how hard Jiang Lamei had worked. She sighed, "Auntie, she's in there."
"That evening, I received a call from Jiahui. Zhao Xiaojuan had come to seek refuge with her. To keep Zhao Xiaojuan safe, Jiahui pretended to agree to take her in."
Jiang Lamei's face flushed with anger as she heard these last few words. "I'm sorry for causing trouble for you and your friend."
From this sentence, she could tell that the man her daughter was desperate for had no intention of liking her at all.
No one wants it even if you give it to them.
Jiang Meishu shook her head. She knocked on the door and whistled at Jiang Lamei. After a while, footsteps were heard in the house.
Qiao Jiahui came out in pajamas, big pants, and slippers and opened the door. "Sister-in-law, Brother Qiurun."
When he saw someone behind them, Qiao Jiahui raised his eyebrows but didn't ask who the other person was.
However, it’s not difficult to guess.
"Someone is still sleeping inside."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Xiaojuan was awakened. She jumped out of bed barefoot and walked to the door. When she saw Jiang Meishu and Jiang Lamei.
Zhao Xiaojuan's face turned pale, "Mr. Qiao, you betrayed me!"
The sound was so sharp that it seemed as if it could pierce a person's eardrum.
Qiao Jiahui looked at her coldly, "Betray? What's the point of betraying? Do we know each other well?"
"If it weren't for my sister-in-law, do you think you could come in here?"
He was regretting it now, regretting that he shouldn't have been so mean as to greet Zhao Xiaojuan. If he had known this would happen, he would have rather not planned it.
Qiao Jiahui admitted that he was not a good man, but his previous relationships had always ended amicably.
Zhao Xiaojuan is the first person to haunt us.
Zhao Xiaojuan's already pale face turned completely pale after hearing Qiao Jiahui's words, "Mr. Qiao."
She had just washed and was wearing loose clothes. Tears welled in her eyes, and she looked stubborn and pitiful. "Are you really so cruel that you don't have any feelings for me?"
Even at this point, Zhao Xiaojuan's focus was not on her mother Jiang Lamei coming to arrest her, but on Qiao Jiahui.
It's really ridiculous and stupid.
Qiao Jiahui looked at her with a frown, "A rabbit doesn't eat grass near its burrow, you know that?"
"You are the grass beside the nest."
Zhao Xiaojuan didn't give up, "What if my cousin wasn't there? Would you fall in love with me?"
Even at this moment, she is still struggling for love and affection.
Qiao Jiahui, "This assumption is not true. Without my sister-in-law, do you think I would know you?"
Although Qiao Jiahui is a powerful figure in Hong Kong, he is still a superior person. Even when he came to Guangzhou and Shenzhen, he brought bodyguards with him. With his status, he could not get in touch with people of the lower class like Zhao Xiaojuan.
As Qiao Jiahui finished speaking, Zhao Xiaojuan sat down on the ground, "I, I, I——"
"I'm so stupid."
Jiang Lamei, who was standing by, felt both distressed and angry when she saw her daughter like this. "Since ancient times, those who are engaged become wives, and those who run away become concubines. Don't you understand this principle?"
Zhao Xiaojuan didn't say anything.
She looked up at the people surrounding her, and finally fixed her gaze on Jiang Meishu. Tears were in her eyes, and her tone was stubborn, "Are you satisfied?"
"Seeing me rejected by Mr. Qiao, being unwanted by him, and seeing my beautiful dream shattered, are you satisfied?"
Jiang Meishu frowned and cursed, "Psycho."
"What should I be satisfied with? What does it have to do with me if he rejected you? Zhao Xiaojuan, the only relationship between you and me was because of my aunt. If it weren't for my aunt, who would I be if I knew you were my neighbor?"
If it weren't for Jiang Lamei, she wouldn't even bring Zhao Xiaojuan to the south.
After hearing this, Zhao Xiaojuan's face suddenly turned gloomy.
It's Mr. Qiao.
Jiang Meishu too.
"Yes, you guys are so high and mighty, and I'm just a clown. Is that okay?"
Before she could finish her words, Jiang Lamei slapped her hard in the face. "Are you crazy? You've come to the South and you've lost your mind. Who's so high and mighty? When has your cousin ever been mean to you? Isn't she good enough to you? If she were really so high and mighty, do you think you'd show up in the South? In Yangcheng, and even stay at your cousin's house?"
"Zhao Xiaojuan, you should act according to your conscience. Do you have a conscience?"
The slap made Zhao Xiaojuan completely stunned. She covered her face, didn't speak for a long time, and tears streamed down her face.
Jiang Lamei didn't care about all this. She brought people, especially two men, and told them to take ropes and tie up Zhao Xiaojuan.
After making sure she wouldn't run away.
Jiang Lamei then turned to Jiang Meishu and said, "I'm sorry, kid."
She bowed to Jiang Meishu.
Jiang Meishu shook her head, "Aunt, let's not talk about this between us."
She had originally been a little angry with her aunt Jiang Lamei because of Zhao Xiaojuan, but when she saw her aunt's haggard appearance, she felt relieved.
Anyone who has a child like this will be miserable and unlucky.
Since her aunt was like this, she didn't say anything more.
"aunt."
Jiang Meishu sighed, "Now that we've found Zhao Xiaojuan, let's keep an eye on her this time. After we bring her back to the capital, if she runs away again."
"My advice to you is don't look for it."
She glanced at Zhao Xiaojuan, who was lying on the ground, tied up, and said in a particularly cold tone, "Anyway, you have more than just Zhao Xiaojuan. Instead of wasting your time on this clueless loser, why not put all your thoughts, money and energy on Xiaogang?"
"Your retirement capital will be Xiaogang, not Xiaojuan."
After this incident, she finally understood that Zhao Xiaojuan was a love-minded person who was only interested in profit. She had no sense of responsibility at all, and would not provide for Jiang Lamei in her old age.
When Jiang Lamei heard this, her face turned pale and her hair trembled slightly. For a moment, she seemed to have aged several years.
"I understand. I will take your suggestion to heart."
As a mother, she was unwilling to give up any of her children, but when things came to this point, Jiang Meishu was right.
Instead of focusing on Xiaojuan, it is better to put all the money and energy on Xiaogang.
Xiaogang is well-educated, filial, and clear-headed. If he is well, they as parents will be well too, and their old age will be secure.
Seeing her mother listen to Jiang Meishu's words, Zhao Xiaojuan immediately became anxious, "Jiang Meilan, stop sowing discord. My mother and I have a good relationship. You want my mother to abandon me and ignore me. You have such a vicious heart!!"
Before Jiang Meishu could speak, Liang Qiurun slapped her in the face with a loud slap.
The scene suddenly became quiet.
Zhao Xiaojuan's left cheek also became red and swollen. She looked up at the man who was so powerful and frightened.
At this moment, he was staring at her coldly, "If it weren't for you, my Jiang Jiang would be resting in bed right now. If it weren't for you, her mind during this period would either be on business or resting at home."
"Because of you, a loser like you, she's been unable to do her business well and hasn't had a good rest. Zhao Xiaojuan, she's been so worried about you, are you trying to disrespect her?"
Liang Qiurun's slap was more effective than anyone else's.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Xiaojuan immediately froze in place, not daring to say a word.
Not only that, Liang Qiurun also said to Qiao Jiahui, "Remember her appearance. Next time she comes to you, call the police and report her for harassing you."
"I want to see if you, Zhao Xiaojuan, are tired of eating good food and want to eat prison food."
This is the real solution.
Zhao Xiaojuan was stunned for a moment, and of course she was more afraid.
She no longer dared to move or speak, and let the other party take her away.
Jiang Lamei also heard Liang Qiurun's threat. She sighed, lowered her head and apologized.
Liang Qiurun didn't say anything. He didn't have Jiang Meishu's magnanimity. Whoever made Jiang Meishu uncomfortable, he would make the other person uncomfortable.
As for an apology?
It's useless.
Jiang Meishu waited until Jiang Lamei and Zhao Xiaojuan left before she tugged at Liang Qiurun's sleeve and said, "Old Liang, are you not angry anymore?"
Liang Qiurun's tense face suddenly softened a bit, "I'm just angry that she's been causing you trouble time and time again."
I'm busy as hell during the day, and yet I still have to deal with all this bullshit at night.
Jiang Meishu didn't say anything. She sighed softly, "I won't do that again."
She hoped that this time her aunt would be able to make Zhao Xiaojuan die.
Liang Qiurun hummed, held her hand, turned to Qiao Jiahui and said, "Jiahui, you did a good job tonight."
If Qiao Jiahui hadn't calmed people down, they wouldn't have been so successful today.
Qiao Jiahui immediately flattered, "Brother Qiurun, since I did such a good job tonight, why don't you take over the project at Xiaodongmen as well?"
He was really having a headache. "I've been staying at the construction site every day these days. I'm really fed up with it."
"Besides, I'm not cut out for this. I don't understand it at all."
Liang Qiurun didn't say anything.
"Brother Qiurun, just help me and my sister-in-law. Neither of us can endure hardship."
He can't stand sitting in the office every day, and the same goes for Jiang Meishu.
Both of them are one-time deals. It's okay if they work hard at the time, but it's a bit difficult for them to persist for a long time.
Liang Qiurun, "Let me think about it."
With these words, Qiao Jiahui immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Brother Qiurun, I knew you couldn't bear to see my sister-in-law and I so busy."
After saying this, Liang Qiurun glanced at him indifferently, and Qiao Jiahui, who had jumped up and down, suddenly became as quiet as a chicken.
Liang Qiurun and Jiang Meishu then left. When he got home, while coaxing Jiang Meishu to sleep, he whispered, "What do you think of what Jiahui said?"
"What?"
"He asked me to go to Xiaodongmen to help."
Jiang Meishu lay on Liang Qiurun's chest and said sullenly, "I actually hope you can help, but you're already very busy right now. If you take on all the work we've done, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."
"Forget it, Jiahui and I will just take our time. Xiaodongmen won't be finished in a short time anyway."
"First, we need to find a way to fill in the bay in Qianwan and recoup the money. I want to combine it with the profits from setting up stalls in the past few months and the dividends from various businesses, and then return some of the money to Director Chen first."
People who owe foreign debts always feel uncomfortable.
Liang Qiurun naturally had no objection, "Then return the dividends from Hongtai as well."
"No."
Jiang Meishu rejected it directly. "Keep the dividends from Hongtai for now. You need to prepare to build a factory, which will cost a lot of money."
Liang Qiurun thought for a moment and didn't say anything.
He just kissed Jiang Meishu's forehead and coaxed her to fall asleep again.
The land reclamation and road construction project in Qianhai was completed at the end of July and the beginning of August.
That piece of bay was completely filled with land, two months later than the time originally given by the Planning Bureau.
There's nothing we can do about it.
There was a lot of space to be filled in the bay on the Qianhai side. Later, the foundation of Hongtai was dug out, the foundation of Jinshadi was also dug out, and even the soil from the construction sites of the entire Pengcheng was included.
Still failed to fill up Qianhai.
Liang Qiurun was also very courageous. He immediately decided to find those unwanted barren mountains and started mining them.
It took two months overdue to completely fill up the Qianhai area.
August 3rd.
Jiang Meishu and Liang Qiurun went to the Planning Bureau together and asked Director Chen to take people to Qianhai for acceptance.
Director Chen sighed as he stepped on the flat land. "Who would have thought that six months ago this was a bay, and now it's land? I was skeptical when my boss gave me the task of reclaiming the sea and building a road, but now I consider myself blessed."
"What's the big deal about reclaiming the sea and building roads? We can even go up to the sky and into the earth if we want."
Jiang Meishu's mouth twitched, and she thought to herself, Director Chen's words are out of place.
You can't say that.
She flattered calmly, "That's because the leaders above are so kind, otherwise we wouldn't have achieved what we have today."
"Director Chen, please take someone to inspect it. If there are no problems, we will proceed with the acceptance inspection and delivery. At that time, we will remove the pavilion and the cables on the bay side."
Director Chen seemed unaware that Jiang Meishu and the others had charged him twice. He hummed, "I had someone drive around and fill out the form correctly. You guys will come back to the office with me in a while, and I'll have the accountant settle the rest of the bill for you."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Meishu was immediately delighted, "Okay."
She pulled Liang Qiurun's hand, and Liang Qiurun nodded, "Thank you."
After returning to the Planning Bureau, Director Chen really did what he said. After returning to the Planning Bureau, he immediately arranged the finances and paid the balance to Jiang Meishu and Liang Qiurun.
So far, they have received a total of 140,000 yuan in payment for goods from the Planning Bureau.
All settled.
After receiving the money, Jiang Meishu and Liang Qiurun did not leave immediately. Instead, they found Director Chen again and said, "Director Chen, sorry to bother you."
Director Chen was a little surprised to see them coming again. "Did the accounting department give you a hard time?"
"That's not the case."
Jiang Meishu smiled and said, "I just want to ask you, isn't the land in Qianwan already filled? Is this land up for auction?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Director Chen raised his hand and gestured, "You, you, are you interested in this piece of land in Qianwan again?"
Jiang Meishu coughed lightly, "Yeah, I just don't know how the Planning Bureau plans the land in Qianwan. If it's auctioned or sold, can they give us priority?"
She smiled and said, "After all, we have worked together for such a long time, and Director Chen knows us well."
“Wouldn’t it be better if the money earned from the Planning Bureau was spent back in the Planning Bureau?”
Of course, Director Chen did not admit that he was interested in the last sentence.
The land reclamation and road construction project was funded by their unit, and the cost was quite high.
If you can earn it back again, that would be great.
Thinking of this, Director Chen didn't say anything final. "I don't know what this piece of land is used for. Once I find out, I will give you priority."
After hearing this, Jiang Meishu was naturally very grateful.
She didn't expect Director Chen to be so quick. They had just checked out and left in the morning, and Director Chen called them to the Planning Bureau again in the afternoon.
Liang Qiurun had originally planned to go to Xiaodongmen in the afternoon, but he didn't make it.
I could only go to the Planning Bureau with Jiang Meishu again.
"I've found out everything." Upon seeing them arrive, Director Chen stated directly, "The original intention of this piece of land was to expand Pengcheng's usable area."
"After all, this place is too small. If you want this piece of land, I can give you a lot."
Jiang Meishu and Liang Qiurun were confused when they heard this. "What signature?"
“It’s the priority purchase ticket.”
Director Chen, "Because we haven't received any specific orders on what to do with this piece of land, but this piece of land will never remain in the hands of our unit."
"It will definitely be transferred later, but we are not sure when exactly. All we can say is that once you get this signature, you will have the right of first refusal if the Qianhai land is transferred to someone else in the future."
That's enough.
Jiang Meishu immediately thanked Director Chen.
After taking the stick and leaving.
Liang Qiurun was puzzled. "Jiang Jiang, we didn't get the Qianhai land, why are you so happy?"
Jiang Meishu pursed her lips and smiled, "Lao Liang, it's right that we haven't acquired the Qianhai land yet. If it were to be auctioned now, do you think we would still be able to acquire it?"
After asking this question, Liang Qiurun also understood.
"Is there still less money?"
That's why it's so difficult to use.
If they were as wealthy as Ka Fai, they would have just shot it directly without having to wait.
"Yes."
Jiang Meishu whispered, "It would be good for us if the Qianhai land is auctioned later. Even if it's postponed for a year or two, we can have more money."
"This way we can take over this piece of land in its entirety."
But if they auction it now, it won't work. They need to take out a loan to cover the outstanding balance to bid for the land. But if that happens, the several projects they are currently building will be put on hold.
A small workshop is just a small workshop, how can it afford so much construction?
Liang Qiurun was silent, "Let's save some money first."
Jiang Meishu hummed, "First save money and grow slowly. When we have enough funds, we can move on to the next step of business."
Now, all we can do is save money, make money, and find ways to pay off debts!
Liang Qiurun naturally had no objection to Jiang Meishu's opinion.
After receiving a payment of 140,000 yuan from the Planning Bureau, Jiang Meishu received a dividend of 170,000 yuan from Hongtai in three months. She did not touch the dividend as it was the foundation for Liang Qiurun to build a new factory.
So, she had to go back to Guangzhou and first went to the stall. The stall made a profit of 110,000 yuan in four months. Although it was not as good as during the Chinese New Year period, it was at least not bad.
Then he went to Li Wenjuan's clothing factory. Since she opened a decoration company in Hong Kong, Li Wenjuan has been running between the two places.
When Jiang Meishu came for the first time, Li Wenjuan was not in the factory yet. It was not until after five in the afternoon that Li Wenjuan returned from Hong Kong.
After hearing the news that Jiang Meishu had come to see her, she went to find Jiang Meishu, and ended up calling Pengcheng.
Jiang Meishu was not there.
Since she had no contact information, Li Wenjuan had no choice but to give up contacting her.
It was not until the next morning when Jiang Meishu came again that she met Li Wenjuan.
However, as soon as the two met, Li Wenjuan couldn't help but sigh, "Sister Jiang, why don't you buy a pager so that I can contact you?"
"Otherwise, every time I try to find you, I can't get in touch with you."
Jiang Meishu was a little dazed when she suddenly heard the word "page machine." "Page machine?"
"yes."
Li Wenjuan took off the pager from her waist, handed it to Jiang Meishu, and introduced it, "This is it. With it, I can leave you a message, and you can call me back."
Jiang Meishu was used to touching mobile phones in her previous life, so when she suddenly touched a pager in this life, she was a little dazed.
"How much is this?"
"I bought it from Hong Kong for 1,200 yuan. If you want it, it seems that our Pengcheng Customs often intercepts some goods. You can buy it secondhand from here."
She knew that Jiang Meishu was now heavily in debt and was reluctant to let her go.
Jiang Meishu hesitated for a moment, then said bluntly, "I'm here to pay you back."
Since they want to buy this pager, it must be one for each of her and Liang Qiurun. Otherwise, what's the point of just being able to contact one person?
When Li Wenjuan heard this, she immediately glared, "Pay back the money? Are you afraid you can't pay it back?"
"Sister Jiang, you earn millions a year, and you can't even afford a pager?"
