Chapter 938: Big Business Deal

~7 min read 1,292 words

Jian Qiu asked in surprise: "You want to drag them both to speculate on white sugar futures?"

Zhou Andong stretched his arms and gave a big stretch: "They are both business partners and friends. Taking advantage of this opportunity to bring them to earn some foreign exchange can deepen our friendship."

Jian Qiu blinked and asked suspiciously: "Is it that simple?"

"Of course!" Zhou Andong said irritably, "What did you think?"

Jian Qiu chuckled: "Lao Meng and Lao Sun from VCD are also partners and friends; why not bring them along too?"

"No, no, no!" Zhou Andong shook his head like a rattle: "VCD cannot have money. In the future, when the VCD price war breaks out, a VCD with money will definitely be able to survive that hurdle. By then, when our home appliance project is launched, it will be impossible to pull Lao Meng and Lao Sun over to join us."

Jian Qiu rolled her eyes at him, found a coin in her pocket, walked to the phone booth at the end of the alley, inserted it, and handed the receiver to Zhou Andong.

Zhou Andong took the receiver and quickly dialed Wu Hongkang's office.

"Hello, this is Wu Hongkang!"

"Lao Wu!"

As soon as Zhou Andong spoke, Wu Hongkang recognized him, and laughter followed.

"Chairman Zhou, hearing your voice, my heart suddenly feels like it's hanging in the air."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Is it because the surprise was too much?"

"It's because the shock was too much." Wu Hongkang snorted: "We've known each other for so long, and this is the first time you've taken the initiative to call me. Do you think I can not be afraid?"

"Let me tell you, Lao Wu." Zhou Andong said in a tempting tone: "This time there is a big business deal to earn foreign exchange. It's only two or three months, and there's a return rate of at least one hundred percent."

Hearing that it was earning foreign exchange, only two or three months, and a return rate of one hundred percent, Wu Hongkang immediately became spirited.

"What business?"

"It's not easy to talk about on the phone; let's meet and talk this afternoon." Zhou Andong lowered his voice, "Is Lao Zhang still in the capital?"

"Yes!" Wu Hongkang sighed: "Last year he was digging around for connections, wanting to do advertising on the main channel, but as you know, without strong connections, you can't get good time slots at all."

Zhou Andong laughed. It was precisely because the advertising on the main channel became a means for some well-connected people to amass wealth that the main channel leaders came up with the method of public advertising bidding, shutting those well-connected people out.

But at this time, including the main channel leaders, no one would have thought that the auction of advertising resources would be the entire income of the main channel for a long time, and it would also be the barometer of China's economy in the future.

Because the price of the 'Bid King' reflected the direction of China's economy, and on the other hand, who won the 'Bid King' also reflected the internal pattern of China's economy to a certain extent.

"You tell Lao Zhang not to waste his energy looking for people. I received internal news from the main channel; let's come out tonight and have a chat."

"What news?" Wu Hongkang asked curiously.

Everyone knew that Zhou Andong had a good relationship with the main channel, especially his private relationship with that Miss Yang, which made them so envious their eyes turned red.

Take Zhang Shenghui, for example; if he had a good private relationship with Miss Yang, he wouldn't have run his legs off and still not gotten a better advertising time slot.

"Three o'clock this afternoon at the First Bar." Zhou Andong checked the time: "Alright, I have to go back to eat."

"Alright then!" Wu Hongkang replied: "See you this afternoon."

"Let's go, it's about time to eat."

Zhou Andong took out a cigarette, lit it, and walked back with Jian Qiu. Just as they entered the gate, they heard the sound of a car engine behind them, followed by Jian Mingfan's shout.

"Eldest Sister, Brother-in-law!"

Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu looked back and saw Jian Mingfan getting off a minibus, then carrying out a large cardboard box.

"Help me move it quickly."

"Move it yourself!" Zhou Andong pulled Jian Qiu and walked inside.

Jian Mingfan carried the large cardboard box, grunting as he followed behind, complaining incessantly.

"Brother-in-law, how can you be like this? These are all toys I bought for your daughter. Can you..."

"No!" Before Jian Mingfan could finish his sentence, Zhou Andong refused decisively.

Jian Mingfan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, and then discovered they had already arrived.

"Hoo!" This kid let out a long sigh, put the cardboard box on the ground, and discovered the little girl was sleeping soundly on the sofa.

"Asleep?"

Jian Mingfan walked over quietly, bent down, and wanted to kiss her, but was pushed aside by Zhao Ping, who pressed his head.

"Get out of the way, the child just fell asleep, don't wake her up."

Jian Mingfan sighed mournfully, looked at the people in the house, and asked the old man: "Grandpa, can you tell me, am I Jian Zhengye and Zhao Ping's biological child?"

The old man shifted his gaze from the TV, looked at Jian Mingfan, and said very seriously: "No!"

"..."

Jian Mingfan was speechless, looking at everyone in the house with a desperate expression.

"Ha..."

Jian Yue laughed, then covered her mouth, looked at Su Su who was sleeping soundly, and let out a breath after seeing there was no reaction, then said gloatingly.

"Xiaofan, now that you know your background, are you going to find your biological mother?"

Jian Mingfan looked at Jian Yue resentfully: "Sister, I am your biological brother. Now my young heart has suffered unprecedented damage, can't you comfort me?"

"Before you were my biological brother, but now you aren't." Jian Yue said with a smile: "Grandpa already said it, you aren't Uncle and Auntie's biological child."

At this moment, the nanny brought the dishes to the table, and the old man greeted them.

"Let's eat."

"Excuse me!" Jian Mingfan came to the table: "Can I eat my last meal here?"

"Yes, yes!" Zhou Andong nodded, moving the chair beside him: "Come, sit here."

Jian Mingfan sat beside Zhou Andong: "Brother-in-law, no, from now on I can only call you Brother."

"Don't!" Zhou Andong waved his hand: "I can't afford the title of 'Brother'; you'd better call me Chairman Zhou."

"Sigh!" Jian Mingfan sighed: "People leave and the tea goes cold. I'm about to leave this home, and now I can't even call you Brother."

Jian Yue said happily: "This isn't people leaving and tea going cold, but people hating and dogs loathing."

Gu Minglan asked the nanny: "Did you go call the old lady?"

The nanny nodded: "I called, she's feeling a bit uncomfortable and said she won't eat."

"Bring some dishes to her room."

Regarding today's matter, the old man was also a bit dissatisfied with the old lady. Zhou Andong's help to the Jian family in the future was crucial. You don't understand anything, why are you meddling?

"Come on!" The old man personally opened a bottle of Imperial Tribute Wine, "This is what I specially asked for."

Zhou Andong took the wine: "Grandpa, I'll pour it for you."

The old man said with a smile: "Drinking here, there aren't so many rules. Drink as many cups as you want, don't drink if you don't want to, as long as you're happy." ===== CHAPTER 939 =====
