Chapter 2324
Although the ancestors of China have long warned that money is an external object, in fact, many people value money more than their lives.
A heinous villain like Mei Yuzhen has actually long since put life and death aside. For her, her greatest pursuit is to earn more money so that her family can flourish and pass down.
If her descendants can become second-generation rich, third-generation rich, and continue to be prosperous, then for her, that is the ultimate goal of life.
The ultimate goal of her life is not any single descendant, but to allow the entire family to complete a heaven-defying change of fate.
To put it bluntly, it is to sacrifice me alone to make several generations happy.
Therefore, if she were killed at this moment, and her family was not affected in any way, she would not have any hesitation.
But now, this matter has developed in the direction she least wants to see.
That is, the foundation she worked so hard to build has collapsed in an instant.
Compared to the two situations of "people die and money is not spent" and "people are alive but money is gone," she has the same opinion as Zhao Benshan.
She feels that people dying and money not being spent is not a tragedy, but a symbol of success, because those big families in the United States that have been passed down for hundreds of years are, without exception, people dying and money not being spent.
And those homeless people on the streets of the United States who can't even afford a tent and can only curl up under the bridge are, without exception, typical "people are alive but money is gone."
Therefore, when all efforts vanish into thin air and all foundations are destroyed, for her, it is the real tragedy of the world, and it is the real devastating disaster!
At this moment, Mei Yuzhen is heartbroken. After vomiting everything she could vomit in her stomach, she collapsed on the grass on the side of the road and cried with her head in her hands.
The other three didn't expect that this female devil, who didn't know how many people she had killed, would sit on the side of the road and cry with her head in her hands so helplessly.
For a moment, Man Jinshan felt a bit dazed.
He originally thought that someone like Mei Yuzhen, who had a heart of iron and had put life and death aside, would be fearless in this life.
He didn't expect that she wasn't even afraid of death, but was most afraid of being poor.
However, Man Jinshan's heart suddenly felt a bit of pleasure at this moment.
He had long had complaints about Mei Yuzhen.
On the one hand, this woman had absolute control over their small group, never gave them a good face, ordered them around every day, and even occasionally beat and scolded them.
On the other hand, it was because this woman earned far more than him.
Sometimes, seeing others earn money is more uncomfortable than losing money yourself.
You'd rather lose a hundred yourself than see others earn ten thousand.
Man Jinshan is like this.
Although he was also earning money alone in the United States, and his wife, children, and grandchildren were all relying on him to support them in the country, his family could not be considered rich in the country.
Over these years, the cash he had successively given to his family was estimated to be around ten million RMB.
In his view, this amount of family wealth was enough for his family to live, but it wouldn't be as flashy as Mei Yuzhen's. So although Mei Yuzhen's family was arrested, his own family must be very safe.
Thinking of this, he felt even more proud in his heart and couldn't help but laugh secretly: "Mei Yuzhen, oh Mei Yuzhen, you damn well have today! Usually, you scold me, a big man, like a dog every day, and you've been so arrogant, you stinking woman. Why don't you have that arrogant energy you had before? I don't mind that you're old, I want to be a temporary couple with you to solve everyone's physiological needs, but you damn well look down on me. Why aren't you showing off now?"
People say that you should sacrifice your friends rather than yourself.
Man Jinshan has this mentality.
Moreover, he felt that he had always been jealous of Mei Yuzhen earning more.
And now, Mei Yuzhen's assets were instantly cleared to zero, and he instantly achieved an overtaking of Mei Yuzhen, and it was a crushing overtaking.
Man Jinshan, who was proud in his heart, hypocritically comforted Mei Yuzhen and said: "Sister Mei, as the saying goes, money is an external object. As long as you can keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about firewood. Anyway, you are in the United States now, and it's impossible for you to be arrested by the domestic police. Instead of this, it's better to work hard for a few more years in the United States! There must be a chance to make a comeback!"
Mei Yuzhen's eyes were empty and lifeless. She choked with sobs in a dazed and decadent manner: "You say it easily. My twenty-plus years of hard work, cleared to zero in one morning! This means that everything I did before was in vain! If I want to earn back the money I lost, it will take at least another 20 years. Where do I have so many 20 years?! I'm already over 50 this year. I should have retired and returned to the country to enjoy my old age! As a result, everything is gone now, and even my husband and son have been arrested. If I had known this, I would rather have stayed in the country and not come out!"
As she spoke, she slapped herself twice hard and roared emotionally: "My hard work for these twenty-plus years, in the end, is just a bamboo basket drawing water—all in vain... Twenty-plus years! What on earth am I trying to achieve! What on earth am I trying to achieve!"
Man Yingjie on the side hurriedly persuaded: "Auntie Mei, don't be impulsive! We still have business to do. Your top priority now is to hurry up and earn more money. Otherwise, when your husband and son come out in the future, if there is no money, they won't be able to make a comeback!"
Man Jinshan also nodded and said: "Yes, Sister Mei, it's just money laundering, at most it will be sentenced to ten years, right? If you perform well and get a sentence reduction, you will be in your forties or less than fifty when you come out. It's not too bad! Besides, you still have eight, oh no, nine grandchildren. If you don't cheer up, what will they do in the future..."
When Mei Yuzhen heard this, she suddenly came back to her senses and muttered: "Yes... I have to earn money... I have to earn more money... If I can earn enough money, I will immigrate to Southeast Asia and then bring my children and grandchildren over step by step..."
As she spoke, she hurriedly stood up and urged: "Get in the car, hurry up and get in the car! We must reach Mexico as soon as possible!"
Man Jinshan hurriedly nodded and was about to help Mei Yuzhen back into the car, when his own mobile phone suddenly rang.
He subconsciously took the phone out of his pocket and looked at it, only to find that the person calling was his daughter-in-law. In this instant, his heart jumped into his throat.
He didn't dare to answer the phone, but muttered: "Why did my daughter-in-law call too... this... this... could it be that something happened..."
Mei Yuzhen's pupils shrank suddenly, and she blurted out: "Something must have happened!"
Man Jinshan panicked all of a sudden, trembling as he pressed the answer button, and blurted out: "Hai... Haiying... why... why are you calling at this time..."
Before he finished speaking, the daughter-in-law on the other end of the phone burst into tears and said helplessly: "Dad... Mom and Xuemin have been arrested by the police. The police said they are suspected of money laundering... and they also said that the family's assets are to be sealed... what should we do... can you come back as soon as possible and think of a way... I really don't know what to do alone..."
Man Jinshan, who was still laughing at Mei Yuzhen and watching Mei Yuzhen's joke in his heart just now, only felt that the world went black at this moment, and he instantly lost consciousness and fell straight to the ground...
