Chapter 35
Bar
Vivian knew that he had taken her words to heart, so she patted him on the shoulder. “I may be good to others for a certain purpose and benefit, but I’m good to you because I want you to become a better person! Alright, go and do your homework.”
The heart-to-heart talk that night had a remarkable effect the next morning.
When Leon entered the kitchen, he saw Vivian frying bacon. He hesitated a few times before shouting the words he had practiced for a long time this morning, “Good morning, Mom.
Vivian was very surprised. They had known each other for so many days, but Leon had never called her ‘Mother’.
Vivian was grinning from ear to ear. “Good morning, Leon!”
Indeed, sincerity was always the most touching!
At that moment, Vivian was thinking about the books on parenting in the office. It made sense. There was no one that Vivian could not conquer!
After breakfast, the two parted ways, both working hard in their own direction.
Vivian, who came to the office, urged the Human Resources Department to quickly send someone to register the company. After all, the name of the clothing factory was not impressive enough, and it was easy to make people suspect that they were not strong enough!
Last night, Vivian had recounted her assets. She had spent 7.806 million yuan on real estate and office buildings out of 68 million yuan. In addition, she had spent 3.79 million yuan on the clothing factory and the project she was preparing to invest in. She had also spent almost 500,000 Yuan on her car and other living expenses in S City, as well as Leon’s tuition fees.
She had spent more than 10 million yuan in less than a month. Vivian could not help but feel that money was really easy to spend.
“Boss, Mr. Edwin is here to see you.”
Vivian was a little confused. please let him in.
A few minutes later, Vivian saw Edwin coming in. She realized that he looked much more haggard after not seeing him for a few days. “Hello, Mr. Edwin.”
Edward smiled. “Hello, miss Vivian. I have a favor to ask of you. I have a small and medium-sized farm. Are you interested?”
Vivian did not know much about agriculture and did not want to touch it for the time being, so she smiled and replied, “I’m sorry, Mr. Edwin. I’m not interested at the moment.”
Edwin was a little disappointed after hearing this. He then asked, “Do you have any friends who are interested in farms?”
Vivian had just arrived, so she didn’t know anyone. She could only shake her head.
She looked at Edwin’s slightly anxious expression and asked, “Are you in urgent need of money?”
Edwin was under immense pressure. His family members didn’t dare to go out normally anymore, so he couldn’t hold it in anymore when Vivian asked.
Edwin cried out with a sad face. “Miss Vivian, I’ve been tricked! A friend of mine told me that the bar business is doing well and I was moved after he talked for a long time. Later, he said that he would accompany me to inspect it. I saw that the business was really good and wanted to change my career.”
“In the end, after signing the contract, we found out that the people who went to see it that day were all liars! The bar owner and my friend did it together. It would be good if the bar could break even!”
“I wanted to give up and find a capable manager to run the bar, but the owner of the bar came to me and said that I haven’t paid enough money to transfer the bar. Now he comes to the bar every day to make trouble, and no one comes to spend!”
“When I saw the contract he took out, it wasn’t the one I signed before. The 500,000 was 1.5 million! I don’t know what kind of means they used, but it was indeed my signature on it. They said that if I don’t give them enough money, they’ll go to my house and guard it. They’re clearly using my family to threaten me. I can’t even give up now!”
“I have 290,000 Yuan left from the factory you sold. I think I can sell the farm and the jewelry at home to come with the remaining money.”
Vivian looked at the dispirited Edwin sitting on the sofa with mixed feelings. S City’s public security was indeed very poor at this time. There were many people who came to S City to invest, and these gangs were fishing in troubled waters. It was normal for Edwin to be targeted since he wasn’t born and raised here.
