Chapter 4: Clear the stumbling blocks and dig a hole along the way
Xu Zhiquan took a puff of cigarette and fell silent.
Of course he knew what his son was talking about.
In Xu Chen's memory of his previous life, after his father suffered bankruptcy, several relatives were considered to be evildoers who "added insult to injury".
Xu Chen came back from rebirth to promote the transformation of his father's business, and he had to get rid of these "blood-sucking" relatives.
Xu Zhiquan is the second eldest son in the family. He has an uncle above him, followed by his third uncle, fourth uncle, fifth uncle and aunt.
When Xu Zhiquan first started doing business, he took his third uncle and fourth uncle with him.
Later, after the factory business started, the third uncle broke up with Xu Zhiquan and went out to work alone. He also opened a small factory, which was a competition with Xu Zhiquan.
Xu Zhiquan's factory is still bigger now. The uncle, fourth uncle, and aunt all help in Xu Zhiquan's factory.
The third uncle and the fifth uncle are working in the factory.
In Xu Chen's memory of his previous life, after his father's factory went bankrupt, he needed to sell off the factory's property to repay debts. As a result, his uncle and aunt actually came to separate the family and demand compensation. They were really taking advantage of the situation and adding insult to injury.
Only the fourth uncle was willing to tide over the difficulties with his father Xu Zhiquan, and even went south to work together.
When Xu Chen comes back from rebirth, he must help his father and kick out the uncle and aunt as soon as possible.
This matter is a huge hidden danger and needs to be resolved as soon as possible.
Just now, Xu Chen hesitated for a moment, but decided to speak out directly.
He believed that from his father's perspective, he should have been able to tell early on which people were "sucking blood" lying at home. Perhaps it was because of the close relationship between brothers and sisters that he could not talk about it.
My father seemed easy-going, kind and generous, but he also had a clear account in his heart.
Xu Chen said:
"Dad, you understand what I mean.
In fact, you don't have to be a 'bad guy'. This time, you didn't win the order from the machinery factory, so you can just spread things out and let a few uncles and aunts make their own choices. ”
Xu Zhiquan nodded:
"Son, it's clear to all beholders... Who do you think is lying in our house sucking blood?"
Xu Chen did not shy away and said:
"Dad, you actually know very well, which families only come to collect money every month but do nothing?
Besides Fourth Uncle, who really helps you? ”
Xu Zhiquan frowned, put out the cigarette in his hand, and said:
"I just have to go out for a business trip this week. When you come home next weekend, there will be a meeting in the factory.
Your uncle, fourth uncle, and aunt are all here. Just follow your instructions and let them make their own choices. ”
Xu Chen said no more, but he breathed a sigh of relief.
Dad, you better listen to your advice!
Even if you are facing brothers, sisters and relatives.
It is completely foreseeable that when he learned that his father failed to win the contract of the machinery factory and even considered closing the family factory, the two companies who just wanted to "suck blood" would definitely run away immediately.
If the other party refuses to leave, Xu Chen also has other methods...
Xu Zhiquan smiled and looked at his son:
"Son, don't be too stressed about the college entrance examination. If you don't want to go to school, just come back and work with dad!
Anyway, everything dad earns will be yours in the future! ”
Xu Chen: "Dad, I'd better go to school first! I'm lazy, just make money and spend it on me."
Xu Zhiquan laughed a few times and reached out to rub Xu Chen's head.
……
When it got dark, the father and son got up and left.
The father is going back to town, and the son is going back to school.
Xu Chen is a student living on campus, and today happens to be Sunday, so he has time to surf the Internet and meet with his father.
Xu Zhiquan originally came here by Huang Furen's Santana. Huang Furen was still detained at the moment, and now he could only take the bus back.
Xu Chen put his father in the car, then turned and walked towards the school.
He turned around and glanced around, seeing his father's bus walking away, but Xu Chen turned around and changed the direction.
There is one more thing that needs to be done!
……
……
An arcade game room in a certain alley was dark, noisy, and filled with the smell of smoke.
The King of Fighters, Street Fighter, Metal Slug, Romance of the Three Kingdoms... the strong atmosphere of the times is coming to you.
Although it has entered 2006, these classic arcade games from the end of the last century are still popular in small counties.
Xu Chen pushed the door open and looked around the hall. He saw a young man with long hair in front of an arcade machine in the corner.
Xu Xiaoyang, the son of his third uncle, is in the third grade of junior high school in the nearby No. 6 middle school.
Xu Chen didn't have any good impression of his third uncle. Back then, my third uncle had a falling out with his father, and there was a huge commotion when they separated, and they took half of his father's factory.
The reason why it is said that "it is easy for brothers to settle accounts" is precisely because "it is difficult for brothers to settle accounts".
In fact, in the face of financial interests, the fights between many brothers are more naked and cruel than those between strangers...
After the third uncle separated from the family, he started his own factory and competed with his father's factory for business, causing many obstacles behind his back.
Fortunately, Xu Zhiquan was a kind man and had a good reputation, so he was not greatly affected.
In Xu Chen's past life memory, after his father went bankrupt, his third uncle also took advantage of the situation and took advantage of it, taking over the factory assets sold by his father at a very low price.
When Xu Chen came back from rebirth, he naturally wouldn't give this third uncle good things to eat.
The third uncle must be keeping an eye on the orders from Guangming Machinery Factory and trying every means to get them.
Now that his father Xu Zhiquan is "out", the third uncle will definitely pounce on him immediately and try his best to get the order contract from the machinery factory.
This kind of deep pit must be arranged!
Xu Chen bought two yuan of game coins, pretended not to recognize Xu Xiaoyang, but deliberately walked over and sat down in front of the arcade machine next to Xu Xiaoyang.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
There was a "click" sound and a game coin was put in.
Xu Chen controlled the joystick and began to select the game character.
"Xu Chen?" Xu Xiaoyang turned around and recognized his cousin.
He was obviously his cousin, but he called him by his first name, showing his arrogance without hiding it.
Xu Chen deliberately pretended to be surprised:
"Xiaoyang? You are actually here."
Xu Xiaoyang looked Xu Chen up and down:
"I can't tell. They say you are a good student, but you actually come to the game arcade."
Xu Chen: “I’m very annoyed, let’s come out to play and breathe some air.”
Xu Xiaoyang smiled:
"What are you bothering about? Your father's factory is so big that it always puts pressure on our family's business."
Xu Chen: "Don't mention it...my dad's factory recently lost a big order."
Xu Xiaoyang rolled his eyes: "What order?"
Xu Chen: "I'm not sure about the details. It seems that they are from Guangming Machinery Factory. My dad is angry..."
Xu Xiaoyang was startled, but he couldn't help but reveal his surprise:
"Real or false?"
Xu Chen: "It's true. My dad just had dinner with me and got sulky and scolded me."
Xu Xiaoyang remained silent and turned around to fight Street Fighter again.
But it was obvious that he was very distracted.
After playing less than one round, Xu Xiaoyang put away his bag and said with a smile:
"Xu Chen, please continue playing, I have to leave."
He turned to leave, but turned back and threw the remaining few game coins in front of Xu Chen:
“I’ve rewarded you with these game coins, so take it and be happy!”
With that said, he went out proudly.
Xu Chen shook his head helplessly and thought to himself:
"Go back and ask your dad to take action immediately. If it's too late, it'll be too late."
In this deep hole in the machinery factory, if the third uncle really jumped, he could almost be buried...
……
Coming out of the arcade, the night breeze was slightly cool, and Xu Chen felt comfortable.
I helped my father avoid the big pit in the machine factory and started running a nursery business. The moths in the house were ready to be cleaned up, and the third uncle was about to "get rid of them"...
Everything that needs to be arranged has been arranged.
Let the bullet fly for a while...
When I returned to Tiancheng No. 1 Middle School, it was already half past nine in the evening.
Today is Sunday, but the entire seventh floor of the teaching building is still brightly lit. He was a residential student in his senior year of high school, still working hard at school.
The students who live on campus are basically children from lower-level villages and towns, and many of them can be said to be from "poor families."
Studying is indeed the only chance to change one's destiny, and children work harder than those in the city.
Among a group of students who live on campus, Xu Chen is considered to be from a well-off family. He is also the son of the "richest man in the village", so he has the leisure and money to hang out in Internet cafes on weekends.
Xu Chen walked quickly towards the classroom.
There are still three months left before the college entrance examination. He is a little worried about whether he can still handle the test papers and questions after his rebirth.
If his father's bankruptcy and early death were the biggest regrets in his previous life, then Xu Chen, who had always had good grades, was only able to attend a second college by accident, which was the second biggest regret.
