My minimum living allowance is credited to my account every day with 1000 million yuan
Chapter 596 Zhao Xiangjun's Worries
My second uncle shook his head. "Sure enough, there's a reason why you can't make money sometimes. A man's ambition lies in all directions; how can he be content with a corner of the world and live a mediocre life?"
Cheng, the richest man, smiled. It wasn't that he was unwilling to explore the world; his ambitions lay elsewhere than with his second uncle. If General Manager Xu Wu had arranged for him to go to Africa, he would have done so without hesitation.
To have the hope of earning 500 million after studying for several years is worse than going bankrupt right now. I'm currying favor with Xu's father for the sake of development, not for destruction.
The aunt opened the storage room, and Cheng, the richest man, carried in a case of Luzhou Laojiao liquor. The second uncle said to Xu Xin, "Go and pick out the cheapest liquor and give it to the aunt."
Xu Xin is quite knowledgeable about alcohol. He strode in and was immediately stunned to see that the entire wall was piled with liquor. He was dumbfounded. How come it was all Moutai?
"Hey—there are some in that corner over there, the wine boxes look a bit different. Let's go take a look." Xu Xin walked closer and suddenly exclaimed, startling his second uncle, who quickly asked what was wrong.
“These, these wines—” Xu Xin’s expression changed.
As Uncle Er approached with Cheng, the richest man, Uncle Er exclaimed in surprise, "Why is the seal script for 'Maotai Liquor' printed on this logo different from the normal Maotai?"
Cheng, the richest man, glanced at him. What do you mean by "normal" Moutai? Is this abnormal? He was actually quite shocked. A case of fifty-year-old Moutai is worth millions. The Xu family has nearly ten cases of this liquor, which is worth tens of millions. Can you believe it?
My second uncle didn't recognize it, but looking at the packaging—a top-grade linden wood box, handcrafted lacquer finish, magnetic snap closures and brass locks (with a dedicated key)—it's so much more high-end than the hard corrugated cardboard box of Feitian Moutai, with UV printing, partial gold foil stamping, and ordinary tape sealing.
"Dad, Uncle's place is full of Moutai, and it seems like the cheapest one I bought is the Moutai I bought."
".", the second uncle turned to look at his aunt, who spread her hands, the meaning of which was very clear - you choose, you can choose whatever you want.
Emerging from the storage room, Second Uncle was still reeling from the shock of that pile of Moutai. How much money must that be? And he didn't even know those dozen or so cases were fifty-year-old Moutai; otherwise, he would have been terrified.
"Xu Xin, go out and buy a bottle of wine and bring it back for Auntie." Uncle was still reluctant to use Moutai to wipe the refrigerator; he rarely got to drink that kind of wine.
Upon hearing this from the living room, Mr. Xu shouted, "Stop making a fuss. We're basically not drinking anymore. You told him to go out again, but he's not going. Let's eat."
Cheng, the richest man, also advised him to eat first, and only then did the second uncle reluctantly accept the offer, feeling sorry for the woman. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought that the young aunt had drunk his wine.
At the dining table, Mr. Xu took out a mahogany drawer-style box from the wine cabinet. When he opened it, the box contained a silicone-shaped inner liner and a silk lining, which looked much more upscale.
Feitian Moutai, on the other hand, uses a foam plastic molded bracket, which couldn't be simpler.
"I'm drinking this today—", Mr. Xu knew it was 50 years old, but he didn't know how much it was worth. Among those present, only Mr. Cheng had drunk this wine and knew its price. Even his second uncle and Xu Xin didn't know it was 50-year-old Moutai.
Cheng, the richest man, snatched it away, saying, "Brother Xu, please have a seat, I'll serve you—"
Mr. Xu sighed, "How could I? There are younger relatives here. Let Xu Xin do it."
Cheng, the richest man, said a few polite words, but insisted on doing it himself. He felt a sense of satisfaction just holding such expensive wine in his hands.
Uncle Er laughed and said, "Old Cheng is a hard worker, and he's quick to notice things."
Mr. Xu was exasperated. He gave his second son a few meaningful glances, but when his son remained unmoved, he reprimanded him directly, "Second son, be polite to the richest man. Don't be so rude."
Besides her father and elder brother, Xu Wu's grandfather and grandmother had passed away, so Xu's father was the head of the family. Therefore, it was perfectly acceptable for him to reprimand her second uncle.
The second uncle was completely baffled by the scolding. He had just been joking around with Lao Cheng, and he was being called rude? As a boss, how could he expect to be polite to a mere employee? Therefore, although he didn't dare to talk back when the eldest brother scolded him, he was still resentful.
Just then, Zhou Dawei's phone rang. He glanced at the phone and said, "It's a call from home. I'll answer it."
After he left, Xu's father asked Xu Li why she didn't come back with him, since the wedding was the day after tomorrow.
My second uncle said she needs to look after the shop. She will take the high-speed train to Qingyun early tomorrow morning, stay at the Oriental Hotel in Qingyun tomorrow night, and the wedding car will pick her up from the hotel the day after tomorrow.
The reason they didn't bring her from her hometown is because they haven't been back for several years, and the place hasn't been cleaned up and is uninhabitable, let alone for a daughter's wedding.
In fact, Xu Li and Zhou Dawei had already registered their marriage a few months ago, but in the countryside, without a wedding banquet, it's as if they weren't married. This time, they came back specifically to hold a wedding banquet.
Only then did Cheng, the richest man, realize that the second boss was getting married. He quickly offered his congratulations and said he would definitely be there the day after tomorrow. The second uncle found that Old Cheng handled interpersonal relationships very well. "Thank you!" he said, and then couldn't help but praise him, "Old Cheng, your personality is naturally suited for business. What I said before still holds true. If you want to work with me, you can contact me anytime."
Xu's father and second uncle praised Cheng, the richest man, for being suited for business, but in their hearts they were thinking, "Isn't that obvious? If he wasn't suited for business, how could he be the richest man?"
When she heard him ask others to work with him again, she was both angry and amused. Didn't the second brother blush with shame when he said that? Just as she was about to criticize him, she saw Zhou Dawei walking over with an unhappy look on his face, which meant that something had obviously happened.
My second uncle inquired about the reason. It turned out that it was about the wedding car arrangement for the day after tomorrow morning. The wedding company's service package included a 12-car wedding fleet, with the main wedding car being a Mercedes-Maybach S450 and the secondary wedding cars being a fleet of Mercedes-Benz E-Class vehicles.
Don't let the convoy fool you; it might not look impressive at first glance. In this county town, a Mercedes-Maybach is still quite rare. Zhou Dawei knew his second uncle cared about appearances, so he specifically asked the family to hire a wedding planning company to make preparations in advance.
But they just called to say that because it's an auspicious time of year and there are so many weddings, they can't get that Mercedes-Maybach S450 right now. They called to ask if they could get a BMW 7 Series instead.
Zhou Dawei was naturally unhappy and got into an argument with the other party. BMW 7 Series cars are so common these days, how could he possibly make his father-in-law look good?
Uncle Er hadn't been home for several years, and this time he was determined to make a grand return. Zhou Dawei knew his father-in-law's thoughts well, but the wedding company said they couldn't do anything about it; they simply couldn't arrange any vehicles.
Sure enough, my second uncle looked grim. This time he was going home to do three things—show off, show off, and show off to his mother.
With the debts paid off, his daughter married in style, and his son got engaged in a high-profile ceremony. A Mercedes-Maybach S450 was enough to turn heads in the small town; it was a key part of Xu Lao Er's announcement of his "return of the war god." Now that the Mercedes-Maybach was gone, replaced by a BMW 7 Series, the impact of his return would be much less.
Cheng, the richest man, glanced at Xu's second son and thought to himself, "This second boss probably doesn't even know how powerful President Xu is now. If we ask President Xu to make some arrangements, there's no car we can't get."
But he knew that not only the second boss, but even Xu's father wasn't very clear about Xu's job. They only knew that she worked for a super-large company and was the CEO, but they didn't know anything about that. Mainly, every time Xu Wu came back, they didn't pay attention to her work, probably because they felt they wouldn't know even if they asked. What they were most concerned about was Xu Wu's love life, because during the Spring Festival, Xu Wu said that she had a boyfriend with whom she had a very good relationship, but so far she hadn't brought him home to meet everyone.
The elderly couple were overjoyed to hear that young Chen was also coming. Seeing that their second uncle and aunt looked a bit down, Xu's mother said to Xu's father, "Can we think of a solution?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng, the richest man who had been thinking about Mr. Xu's influence, suddenly snapped out of his reverie and said, "Second boss, leave this to me. As for the lead car, I'll arrange a Maybach S680 for you. What do you think?"
Maybach S680? Is it any good? Of course it is, it couldn't be better. This car is much more upscale than the Mercedes-Maybach S450. Not to mention driving it back to a small town, even in a first- or second-tier city, it will make you look good.
only--
"Old Cheng, are you sure? If you can't handle it, you should tell us as soon as possible. We'll need it for the child's wedding the day after tomorrow."
Cheng, the richest man, smiled and said, "Don't worry, the car will be delivered to the wedding company by noon tomorrow. Is that alright with you?"
Uncle Er raised his glass to him, saying, "Old Cheng, you've really done me a huge favor. I never expected you to have such influence. You're quite something!"
He clinked glasses with his second uncle and said, "Second Uncle, you flatter me. It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning."
Mr. Xu also breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to call his daughter to ask if she had any ideas. Although he didn't know exactly how much power his daughter had, the fact that she could make Cheng the richest man so afraid and treat him like her own parents suggested that her power was probably beyond his imagination.
With the matter resolved and in a good mood, he drank a few more glasses of wine. Xu's father opened a second bottle, which made Cheng, the richest man in the county, twitch. Even though he was the richest man in the county, spending 100 million yuan on alcohol in one meal made his heart pound.
That evening, after Cheng, the richest man, left, the second uncle asked, "Brother, is that old Cheng reliable? What if things don't go well tomorrow and all our hopes are dashed?"
Mr. Xu had drunk quite a bit, and his voice was trembling. "Don't worry, is there anything the richest man promises that he can't do?"
Uncle chuckled and said, "What's so great about keeping wealth? You have to get rich first before you can keep it. He's not at that level yet."
The next day, Xu Li would also be in Qingyun County, but since it was her wedding the next day, she definitely wouldn't have time to come home for dinner. Besides, it would be the first time Xu Wu's boyfriend was coming home that evening, so Xu's father would definitely be more attentive to Chen Xiao.
During the day, he brought his second uncle's family to the Oriental Hotel to check in. His second uncle was unwilling to let his eldest son pay, but Xu's father glared at him and said, "I can't afford the room fee?"
The second uncle didn't dare to say anything. He had taken advantage of the eldest brother a lot since he was a child. In the past, when he was in debt at home, he was often chased to the eldest brother's house. The eldest brother would always give him a few hundred yuan to settle things. So, no matter how arrogant he usually was outside, he was afraid of the eldest brother's words.
Tonight, my second uncle's family will stay here. They will pick up the bride from here tomorrow; it's a temporary "home".
As Mr. Xu was preparing to pay, someone suddenly called out, "Mr. Xu—" Mr. Xu turned around and recognized the man. He heard the man say, "Mr. Xu, I'm Xiao Liu from Qingyun Junxiao Plaza. I'm here to wish you a Happy New Year during the Spring Festival."
I remember now. The general manager of Junxiao Plaza delivered wine and New Year's gifts to my home during the Spring Festival. He left after saying only a few words. I even joked with my daughter at the time, saying, "You're such a grown man, why are you still trembling when you speak? Why didn't you even stay for a while?" Later, my daughter told me that he was the general manager of Junxiao Plaza. That's when I learned that my daughter worked for a super powerful company, which was why the general manager of Junxiao Plaza was so afraid of her.
"Oh, Xiao Liu, no, Mr. Liu, hello!"
Liu Nan never expected to run into President Xu's father here. This is a hidden super big shot in Qingyun County. It's just that apart from a few people like them, no one else knows about him. If people knew that he was the father of the CEO of Junxiao Group, his door would be worn down by people.
He came this time to book a hotel for Xiao Qi and the others. Xiao Qi, Mr. Xu's bodyguard, contacted him in the morning and asked him to book a room at the Oriental Hotel in advance. Although he didn't say anything, Liu Nan had already guessed that Mr. Xu was coming. So everyone at Junxiao Plaza was particularly nervous today, fearing that Mr. Xu would come to inspect the store.
"Mr. Xu—are you booking a room? Shall I book it for you?"
"No need, no need, I can do it myself," Xu's father quickly refused, and Liu Nan didn't dare to persuade him any further.
Uncle Er, however, was curious and asked after Liu Nan left, "Boss, who was that? Why was he so polite?"
Mr. Xu said, "The general manager of Junxiao Plaza—"
Second Uncle: ".", Really? In Qingyun County, the general manager of Junxiao Plaza is quite a figure. He trembles when he sees the boss. Is he a fraud? What kind of general manager is so timid?
After checking into the room, Uncle Er checked the time; it was almost 11 o'clock. He wondered if Lao Cheng's promise could be fulfilled. Just then, Xu's father received a phone call, grunted twice, and then said to Uncle Er, "The car has been delivered to the wedding company—"
As he was speaking, Zhou Dawei's phone rang. The person on the other end of the line at the wedding planning company sounded incredulous. "Boss, you guys were so great! This car? My god, we have such a luxurious car in Qingyun County? A top-of-the-line Maybach S680! Wow, that's awesome!"
Hearing the voice coming from Zhou Dawei's phone, the second uncle's face flushed. With a car, he'd have face too.
In their hometown, weddings for daughters are quite traditional. Nowadays, weddings are usually held in hotels, but Zhou Dawei's family still goes back to the countryside, where the clan head presides over the ceremony, followed by a large banquet. In such a backward place, people are still a bit conservative in their thinking.
But this is fine too. Tomorrow, a Maybach S680, followed by a row of Mercedes-Benz E-Class cars, will make a grand entrance and let the neighbors see the power of the second son of the Xu family.
In Jiangzhou, Xu Wu has now moved to Linyu in Xishan. Knowing that she was going back today, Zhao Xiangjun went to the storage room early in the morning to look for something. When she heard that Xu Wu had gone there again, the whole family was terrified.
"My ancestors, don't you know what's going on? How can you possibly work?"
Chen Xiao and Xu Wu rushed over. Fortunately, Zhao Xiangjun was only giving instructions and didn't climb up or down anything; the house servants were searching.
"Yes, yes, those few thousand-year-old ginseng plants from Changbai Mountain—"
Upon hearing this, Xu Wu stepped forward and said, "No, that's for you to nourish your body."
Xu Wu knew exactly what these wild, thousand-year-old ginseng roots were; she had arranged for them to be auctioned off for 1100 million yuan each. Now that Xiang Jun knew she was going home and wanted her to take them back to her parents, how could she allow that?
Hearing Xu Wu speak, Zhao Xiangjun turned around and said reproachfully, "What supplements do I need? I used to eat cold noodles and rice noodles every day and I was perfectly healthy. Now I eat all kinds of nutritious meals every day, and I'm about to have an overnutrition problem. Take this back for your uncle and aunt to use."
Before Xu Wu could speak, Zhao Xiangjun smiled and said, "At the company, I listen to you; at home, I listen to you—"
Looking at Chen Xiao, Xu Wu, the CEO who was so powerful outside, actually didn't dare to disobey. Chen Xiao shrank back. At home, Xiang Jun was the most powerful person, and he couldn't handle her.
Once this was settled, Xiangjun asked them to move some more liquor. Xu Wu said, "We have plenty of 50-year-old Moutai at home."
She suspected that the Chen family had collected all the wine, and there couldn't possibly be much left on the market. Mainly, Chen Xiao wasn't a big wine drinker; it was mostly given as gifts by several elderly relatives. Zhao Xiangjun initially sent some to the Chen family in Laiwu, and only stopped when Chen Tao's storage room was full.
"By the way, have you prepared gifts for your younger cousin and older cousin?"
Xu Wu said, "There's no need to prepare anything special. Giving too much at once would be counterproductive. If they work hard, like President Zhao, I will provide them with resources and a platform."
Zhao Xiangjun nodded. When it comes to training people and providing resources, no one in the Chen family is more convenient than Xu Wu, so no one needs to worry about this aspect.
Chen Xiao pulled Xiangjun's hand, "Why don't you go to the living room, or take a walk in the garden? What are you doing staying in the storeroom? Come on, come on—"
After taking only two steps, Xiangjun remembered and said, "The 'Moon Mountain' pure iron teapot that Chalan sent a few days ago, we can take it back for Uncle to play with."
Chen Xiao pulled her along, saying, "I know, sir. I can do it myself, you rest."
That iron teapot was something Cha Lan had just acquired a few days ago; it's a national treasure, worth 300 million yuan. Zhao Xiangjun had heard that Xu Wu's uncle was in the antique business, so she thought of giving Xu's father an iron teapot to play with.
Even though Xu Wu had already refused many offers, the trunks of the bodyguards' vehicles were still packed full, turning the Mercedes GLS into a van.
In the morning, Xu's father was chatting with his second uncle's family, but by the afternoon, he was anxious and wanted to go home as soon as possible.
The second uncle checked the time, thinking that since his niece had returned with Chen Xiao, he wanted to see her too. He had a good impression of Chen Xiao last time in Jiangzhou, and besides, Chen Xiao was here this time to attend his daughter's wedding.
He left his second aunt and Zhou Dawei at the hotel to wait for Xu Li and to receive relatives and Zhou Dawei's family. He then took Xu Xin and her father back to Jindi Huafu to meet Chen Xiao and Xu Wu.
Another person who might be associated with the Xu family is Cheng, the richest man in China. He learned yesterday that Ms. Xu and her boyfriend had returned together and was trying to figure out how to run into her. Furthermore, what exactly does Ms. Xu's boyfriend do? Is he a gigolo who rose to power through Ms. Xu's connections? Or is he also a powerful figure? Regardless of who he is, his relationship with Ms. Xu makes him an incredibly important person to Cheng.
At the highway exit, a convoy of Rolls-Royce Phantoms exited at Qingyun County and entered the county road, prompting discussions among the tollbooth staff.
"My God, what a big shot has come to Qingyun? The richest man in Qingyun County, I remember, only drives a Maybach S680. Look at that Rolls-Royce Phantom just now, with four Mercedes-Benz GLSs in front and behind."
"Even if he's the richest man in Qingyun, or the richest man in the country, there's no need for such a big fuss. Those four Mercedes GLSs are clearly security vehicles."
"You see that Rolls-Royce Phantom? It feels very heavy to me, but I can't quite put my finger on why."
This Rolls-Royce Phantom is the bulletproof modified car that Zhang Ziqian spent 100 million yuan to customize. Its appearance is disguised as a regular Rolls-Royce Phantom, but it has been modified.
The original car cost 1500 million, but the armor modification cost 6000 million and the safety system cost 2500 million.
The exterior is the same, but the interior has been completely changed. The regular version has an aluminum alloy body, but this vehicle uses multi-layer composite armor (steel + ceramic + polyethylene), and its bulletproof standard can withstand a 7.62mm armor-piercing round/15kg TNT explosion under the vehicle.
The glass is thickened to 50mm (including explosion-proof film, ineffective against sniper rifles); the tires are honeycomb explosion-proof tires (can still travel 80km even if punctured); the fuel tank is a self-sealing armored fuel tank (automatically repaired after being hit by bullets).
Its engine is a 6.75L V12 twin-turbo (720 horsepower), and the difference from the regular version is that it has an electric motor assist.
This vehicle has a hidden fuel injection system underneath (creating a smoke barrier). Its privacy mode features one-touch fogging windows (with infrared shielding film), and the seats have Kevlar bulletproof back panels and ejector headrests.
You could say that it's only the exterior of the Rolls-Royce Phantom; the interior has been completely changed.
The standard Rolls-Royce Phantom weighs 2.7 tons, while this car weighs 4.8 tons. Its suspension system is an active hydraulic suspension (capable of withstanding the shockwave of a landmine).
This is the most fortified mobile fortress.
The second row of the car was completely separated from the front row. Chen Xiao and Xu Wu were sipping champagne in the back while Xu Wu introduced Qingyun County, her childhood, and her family.
Her childhood was relatively difficult; her parents were honest and didn't earn much money. However, despite the lack of material resources, she felt very happy because her parents loved her very much.
“Since starting university, I've been able to support myself. Scholarships and part-time jobs helped me supplement my family's income. Later, I went to work in Jiangzhou at Zhifei Aerospace. The compensation from General Manager Cha was decent. And then, I met you—”
She suddenly laughed, remembering how Li Guoqiang had acted inappropriately towards her at his company. He was really bold, patting a woman's butt on the spot when they first met, without even fear of being beaten to death.
Think about it again. He later brought a huge amount of business to himself and Zhifei Aerospace. Later, Cha Lan even asked him to recruit him into the company. Then, he found him and asked him to take charge of Junxiao Capital Investment Management Co., Ltd. Later, Junxiao Investment Group was established, with 5 business entities under it. Now the company's assets exceed one trillion.
These things happened last year, but it feels like so long ago—from an office worker to the female CEO of a trillion-dollar company. (End of Chapter)
