“I have a task for you,” Sheng Qian said, summoning He Weiguo and the others as soon as she arrived at the factory that morning. “I want you to investigate the every move of the Qiao family father and son in Beijing.”
He Weiguo and the others had recovered much better after being treated with Sheng Qian's medicinal herbs. They were just worried about getting paid for nothing, but now they were finally given a task.
Sheng Qian paid them too high a salary, nearly ten thousand a month. Normally, even if they went out to do heavy labor for several years, they wouldn't earn that much in a month.
With such a generous salary and the medicinal herbs and meals provided by Sheng Qian, they always felt guilty.
Now that the mission has finally arrived, they can't wait to get started.
"We don't need too many people, just two or three with strong reconnaissance capabilities," it's just an investigation, not a real operation.
Everyone else followed suit and stepped back.
They are aware of their own capabilities.
In the end, He Weiguo took two people of similar age with him.

Sheng Qian said to act immediately, just in case things change.
They are still a bit small, and they need to recruit more people.
Sheng Qian set her sights on the demobilized soldiers in the villages surrounding the capital.
If we can recruit more people, we won't be afraid of a shortage of manpower when we take action in the future.
At this moment, Sheng Qian received a call from Grandma Ju.
When talking about how her half-sister's daughter had married into a prominent family in the capital, the old lady happened to have an old document that had been sent to the capital, addressed to Sheng Qian.
I'll have to trouble Sheng Qian to take some time to send it over.
Sheng Qian was wondering why it wasn't sent directly to that home and why she had to go through the whole process herself.
Grandma Ju then mentioned that there were some reasons for this.
Since the reason couldn't be revealed, Sheng Qian didn't ask any further questions and simply waited for the old document to be delivered to the capital.
Sheng Qian pondered for a while but couldn't figure it out, so she went out.
Sheng Ting ran back from outside and almost bumped into Sheng Qian: "Xiao Qian, you haven't left the house yet."
"I went out and came back," Sheng Qian said, glancing outside at Sheng Ting's radiant face. Sure enough, she saw Qiao Xiangrong. "Are you going out?"
"Yes, Brother Qiao is going to take me horseback riding."
"horse riding?"
“Yes, he said the riding stables nearby are nearby, we’ll be there soon. Xiaoqian, I won’t delay things,” Sheng Ting said before running upstairs to find clothes to change into.
Sheng Qian came out and greeted Qiao Xiangrong, "Sister Sheng Ting has never ridden a horse before, so I'll have to trouble you to protect her."
"Don't worry, I won't let the person I like get hurt," Qiao Xiangrong nodded in agreement.
Sheng Qian nodded, indicating that she believed him.
Just as Sheng Qian was about to leave, Qiao Xiangrong stopped her. "I heard from Tingting that you're planning to start a new business. I wonder what kind of business it is, and whether Boss Sheng needs to invest?"
Qiao Xiangrong asked in a joking manner.
Sheng Qian said, "I'm looking for business opportunities, aren't I? Boss Qiao is the real landlord in the capital. He should know better than me what good business opportunities are available in the capital."
Qiao Xiangrong shook his head and laughed, "I can only do business selling imported goods. I'm afraid I can't manage other businesses with my personal funds."
"Oh? So, Mr. Qiao has connections?" Sheng Qian asked with great interest.
"I wouldn't say there are any connections, but I've heard that some people from higher up have recently come down to do some calculations, and there might be business opportunities," Qiao Xiangrong revealed from the side.
If it were someone else, they would definitely be unable to resist asking more questions and then trying to find out more.
If the opportunity arises, we will also choose to cooperate.
so.
Is Qiao Xiangrong trying to discuss a collaboration with her?
After learning about the Qiao family over this period of time, Sheng Qian no longer dared to trust them at all.
They were also wary of what Qiao Xiangrong said.
"As I've mentioned before, we'll focus on maintaining our current businesses for now, but if we can find suitable opportunities, we wouldn't mind taking on more..."
“If there’s business, of course we hope it can be done. I wonder if Boss Sheng would be willing to cooperate with the Qiao family? If the business takes off, the Qiao family will allocate a portion to Tingting’s name,” Qiao Xiangrong said, using Sheng Ting as bait.
A smile appeared on Sheng Qian's lips: "That's something we can consider."
Qiao Xiangrong looked at Sheng Qian, trying to confirm the truthfulness of her words.
Sheng Qian looked directly at the other person.
Sheng Ting came out after changing her clothes. "Brother Qiao, let's go."
“If there is such a business opportunity, I will come to see Boss Sheng!” Qiao Xiangrong nodded slightly, and then left with Sheng Ting.
"Xiaoqian, let's go."
Sheng Ting happily went to the riding stable.
When Sheng Ting first arrived at the riding stable, she was very curious, just like a country girl visiting the city.
Qiao Xiangrong didn't find Sheng Ting's performance embarrassing at all. Instead, he smiled and pointed around to introduce her to her.
When Qiao Xiangrong's close friends saw him bring such a beautiful girlfriend, they all inquired about Sheng Ting's identity.
As a result, no one knew which family Sheng Ting was from.
In the eyes of these people.
Even though Qiao Xiangrong is an illegitimate son of the Qiao family, he is currently the only male heir in the family, and he will definitely be the one to inherit his father's business in the future.
Therefore, even if he looked down on Qiao Xiangrong's background, he would not show it on his face.
Tang Yuxiu brought a group of people here today for horseback riding and fun. When they saw Sheng Ting, who was brought by Qiao Xiangrong, they all started teasing her.
Tang Yuxiu sat on horseback, watching the people learning to ride, and smiled.
Then ride over.
Upon seeing Tang Yuxiu, Qiao Xiangrong's expression changed slightly. "Uncle Tang Qi."
