Chapter 830: Does Yuan Hongbiao Have This Brain?
Chen Yuanlin looked at Zhou Andong with appreciation: "Once the matter is made big, no one will care about the cause and effect. Because you, Zhou Andong, are a celebrity, a big rich man, the common people will definitely stare at you and not let go.
Under the coercion of public opinion, even if the county and city, in order to keep you, this god of wealth, remove Yuan Hongbiao, this deputy mayor, they can't speak for you.
Because public opinion is as big as the sky, the common people are all staring at you, if the county and city intervene to speak for you, it is very likely to bring fire to themselves. And Yuan Hongbiao, who was removed from his post, without the title of deputy mayor, can do things even more unscrupulously."
At this time, Yuan Ying and Chen Yuan came out, also moved small stools and sat down. Actually, in the room, they had already listened for a long time.
"Dad!" Chen Yuan asked somewhat unclearly: "Even so, how can Yuan Hongbiao put the money into his own pocket?"
Chen Yuanlin didn't answer him, but smiled and looked at Zhou Andong.
Zhou Andong took a puff, stepped on the cigarette butt on the ground.
"He will stand out, incarnate as the embodiment of justice, use public opinion, force me, this unscrupulous investor, to withdraw shares, and will withhold the funds I invested on the grounds of compensating the victims of the mine disaster.
Even if I promise to compensate the families of the mine disaster victims, the common people won't believe me, and my personal and group reputation won't be saved. If I insist on withdrawing the invested funds, Yuan Hongbiao can't stop it.
But as Uncle said, the common people won't care about any cause and effect, because I am a celebrity, a rich person, they will stare at me and not let go. Once I take back the funds, Yuan Hongbiao will constantly splash dirty water on me.
He will push all the responsibility onto me, plus the mine disaster families in order to get money, and also afraid of Yuan Hongbiao's retaliation, will definitely add fuel to the fire, making me unable to defend myself.
In this way, my personal and group reputation won't just be a little negative impact, but will suffer a devastating blow. By this time, I am already in a dilemma, and in the end, I can only choose the lesser of two evils and give up the invested money."
Chen Yuan and Yuan Ying were both stunned, the two brains turned frantically, and only then figured out the key inside.
Zhou Andong continued: "By then, Yuan Hongbiao will use my money to compensate, so he not only earned a good reputation, but the remaining money he will openly put into his own pocket."
Yuan Ying said somewhat unbelievingly: "Does Yuan Hongbiao have this brain?"
Zhou Andong said: "No matter whether he has this brain or not, we have to guard against it."
Chen Yuan pondered and said: "This is too passive, this method won't work, he will think of other methods."
Zhou Andong smiled: "If he cooperates honestly, then it's good for you, good for me, and good for everyone; we'll make money together. If he wants to play dirty, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Li Fenglan came out of the room: "Dongzi, it's raining so hard outside, don't go to the west end, just eat here. Let Chen Yuan catch a chicken to stew, and steam some rice."
Zhou Andong scratched his head and said very embarrassedly: "Auntie, we came here and you stewed all your geese, and even a big rooster. You wouldn't take the money, so how could I have the nerve to eat more?"
"You child!" Li Fenglan scolded with a smile: "Xiaoying is my daughter-in-law, and you are her brother; we are one family, why be so polite?"
"Right!" Yuan Ying said: "Just eat here."
As she spoke, Yuan Ying kicked Chen Yuan: "What are you still standing there for? Go kill the chicken."
"Oh!"
Chen Yuan hurriedly got up, found a piece of plastic sheeting to drape over himself, tied it with a rope, pushed the door open, and rushed into the rain.
Immediately after, the sound of chickens flying and dogs barking could be heard from the woodshed outside. After about ten minutes of commotion, Chen Yuan came back in, covered in mud, clutching a big rooster.
Chen Yuanlin took the big rooster: "I'll kill the chicken, you go to the back garden and pick some green beans."
Because they all got up late, they definitely couldn't eat breakfast, so they could only wait to eat chicken stewed with green beans.
In less than half an hour, the chicken was killed, the feathers were plucked, and it was thrown into the pot to stew.
By the time the chicken was stewed and they had just started eating, Yuan Hai came running over with Lao Si on his back, along with Yuan Tao, Xiao Qin, Xiao Bei, Yuan Lu, Yuan Zhe, Liu Hao and his girlfriend, and Yuan Mei and her husband.
Yuan Tao also brought a black cloth bag containing a set of mahjong tiles.
"It's raining today and we can't do anything, let's play mahjong."
"Mahjong?" Jian Qiu's eyes lit up immediately, "You guys hurry up and set the table, I'll be done eating in a second."
Zhou Andong looked at Jian Qiu speechlessly: "You know how to play mahjong?"
"Who are you looking down on?" Jian Qiu said very proudly: "I started playing mahjong in junior high school; I'm an expert."
Yuan Mei got excited: "Sister-in-law, Xiaoying, Xiao Qin, let the four of us play."
"Go, go, go!" Yuan Hai said irritably: "You're still pregnant, what are you playing for?"
Yuan Mei was very dissatisfied: "What does me being pregnant have to do with playing mahjong?"
"Exactly!" Yuan Ying immediately chimed in: "The four of us will play, you guys stand aside."
Xiao Qin said: "I don't know how to play."
Xiao Bei rushed to say: "If you don't know how, I'll play."
Chen Yuanlin picked up his wine glass and took a sip with a squeak.
"Chen Yuan, your second uncle has mahjong, go borrow it, and don't forget to bring the table too."
"Okay!" Chen Yuan agreed.
Yuan Tao draped the plastic sheet over himself: "I'll go with you."
The mahjong table was set up. Jian Qiu finished her meal quickly, got off the kang, and sat on a stool.
Lao Si tugged on Jian Qiu's lapel and tilted his little head up: "Sister-in-law, where is Su Su?"
Jian Qiu lowered her head and kissed Lao Si on the face: "She's sleeping in the east room."
"Oh!" Lao Si thought for a moment, then ran to the west room on his short legs.
By the time Zhou Andong finished his meal, Lao Si hadn't returned, so he went to the west room to take a look.
He saw Lao Si lying beside Su Su, propping his little head up with one hand, staring at Su Su with wide eyes.
"Lao Si, what are you doing?"
"Shh!" Lao Si raised a finger and shushed him, "Keep it down, don't wake Su Su up."
Zhou Andong smiled, lowered his voice, and said: "Okay, you watch Su Su, if she wakes up, call me."
"Go, go!" Lao Si waved his hand.
Returning to the west room, seeing Yuan Zhe watching the fun, Zhou Andong patted him on the shoulder.
"I've already found a school for you, have you considered which university you want to apply to?"
Yuan Zhe said without thinking: "Of course, Tsinghua or Peking University!"
"Ha!" Zhou Andong laughed: "That's quite an ambition, but with your current grades, even if you moved your household registration to the capital, the chances of getting into Tsinghua or Peking University aren't high."
"A person must fight for their dreams," Yuan Zhe said with a very serious expression: "If you don't even try, what's the point of talking about dreams? Can a Tsinghua or Peking University admission letter fall on your head while you're lying on the kang?"
"Hahaha..."
"That makes sense!" Zhou Andong laughed heartily: "Have you thought about what major to choose or what to do after graduation? Although it's a bit early to ask now, you should have an idea in your mind."
"I haven't really thought about that yet," Yuan Zhe shook his head, "but after graduation, I want to join the Yugong Group."
Zhou Andong was stunned for a moment, then laughed again: "No problem, but taking the back door is definitely not allowed; how far you go depends on yourself."
"That's for sure!" Yuan Zhe lifted his head proudly, "Does a top student from Tsinghua or Peking University like me need to take the back door?"
