Looking through the iron gate at the crooked-neck tree in the yard, Jiang Chen rang the doorbell.
"Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong..."
After a while, there was movent inside the house.
A broad-shouldered, sturdy black man ca out.
Jiang Chen was montarily stunned.
He thought he had co to the wrong place.
That can’t be right.
He glanced again at the crooked-neck tree rumored to have been the site of a death.
The black man opened the door.
"Mr. Jiang, please co in."
Alright then.
Jiang Chen suddenly realized.
Vera was indeed receptive to advice, but why was he still a black man?
Could it be that so form of political correctness has beco so widespread?
Actually, don’t say that.
Like Cynthia’s black bodyguard, apart from being very dark, this black man was definitely outstanding in appearance among black people.
As Jiang Chen entered the house, he saw Vera coming down the stairs, holding onto the railing.
"Did you co to tell the good news that Miss Cao has been rescued?"
Without a doubt.
The two sides are now completely united in the sa camp, as could be heard from Vera’s tone.
"Good news, indeed, but it’s a different piece of news."
"Another one?"
Vera ca down to the first floor, slightly curious, "What other good news?"
Jiang Chen didn’t speak.
Vera understood, looking at the black bodyguard and said lightly, "Snoopy, go buy so dicine."
Snoopy?
Jiang Chen was taken aback, then couldn’t help but turn his head to watch him leave.
That nickna was truly unique.
"What kind of dicine?"
"Sleeping pills."
"Sleeping pills?"
Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze from the door.
"Mm, I’ve been having trouble sleeping lately."
Can’t sleep?
Although they were allies now, Jiang Chen didn’t think she would be losing sleep over Cao Jinse’s matter.
Could it be that she was influenced by the magnetic field of this haunted house?
Of course, Jiang Chen would definitely not expose this secret; if such a trivial matter affected their strategic friendship, it would not be delightful.
"Sleeping pills should be taken sparingly; they have significant side effects. I’ll have a friend prescribe sothing later."
"Traditional dicine?"
This girl understood a bit about Shenzhou culture after all.
Of course, in terms of the most knowledgeable foreign friend about Shenzhou, among the people contacted so far, no one surpassed Koda Kaoru.
Oh right.
Teacher Xiang Tian seed to have been in hiding for a while now.
"Hmm, at least it sure is healthier than sleeping pills. You’ve t him, that friend of mine from last ti."
Boss Jiang spoke straightforwardly, regardless of whether the person could indeed do it.
But also.
Even if she hadn’t experienced it, as a true successor from the Daoist Sect, the Taoist nun sister must have dabbled in traditional dicine.
It’s well-known that among the various schools of thought, Daoism holds the most varied and comprehensive knowledge.
Miss Vela is soone with self-respect; after being refused once, of course, she wouldn’t entangle herself anymore, returning to the main topic, "What’s the good news?"
"The loan has gone through."
"But Miss Cao isn’t out yet."
Vera pointed out directly, indeed, as long as Cao Jinse isn’t free, obtaining the loan is aningless.
However, it’s important to note that it’s a no-interest loan; the weight of those two words, ask the big bosses who are sleepless from banks chasing debts, and they’ll understand.
This highlights Vera’s uniqueness.
She truly cares, possibly not about the money.
"Whether Miss Cao gets out or not doesn’t affect things."
Hearing this, Vera showed a hint of surprise, "Did Jiuding change leadership?"
Jiang Chen shook his head.
"Jiang, then what do you an?"
Vera was puzzled.
"Sit down, and I’ll tell you."
Jiang Chen was calm and composed, sitting on the sofa. Once Vera sat too, he spoke, "With Miss Cao not out yet, the money can be used for other purposes first."
Vera’s amber eyes blinked, "Jiang, I still don’t quite understand."
Jiang Chen didn’t beat around the bush anymore, getting straight to the point, "Another business deal, I think you and I could work together."
"What business?"
"Investing in the Dongying stock market."
Vera was stunned, clearly caught off guard, but after a brief shock, she didn’t question Jiang Chen’s ntal state but instead seriously and solemnly stared at Jiang Chen and asked, "Jiang, what are you trying to do?"
"Go long on the Dongying stock market."
Jiang Chen was straightforward.
"Your true intention."
Vera said without thinking: "Doing business, the most important thing is integrity. If you aren’t willing to tell your purpose, sorry, I can’t consider your proposal."
"The purpose is simple, of course, it is to make money. Affected by the nuclear leak accident, the Dongying stock market is sluggish; this is a rare opportunity. As long as we join forces, there’s great potential."
Jiang Chen spoke slowly, continuing to persuade, sorry, I an advise, "Moreover, you’re taking a no-interest loan; there’s no risk."
Vera was not impressed, pointing directly, "Jiang, do you think I’m a fool? So what if it’s a no-interest loan? Don’t you need to repay the principal?"
"..."
Jiang Chen was speechless.
The principal indeed needs to be repaid.
After all, the money lent to Vera was painstakingly accumulated over ti.
However, at the sa ti, the other party’s response made him even more convinced that she was a reliable partner.
At least she genuinely intended to repay the money, instead of recklessly squandering it just because it was borrowed money.
Why do most bosses gradually beco delinquents?
Isn’t it because they consider bank loans as wealth gained out of thin air, indulging in a fantasy bubble without restraint, stepping into the abyss step by step.
The sa applies to ordinary people.
Many people had no intention of repaying when borrowing money, hence the saying arose, those who owe money are the masters.
"Partnering with carries no risk."
"Jiang, you’re too confident, the total of the Dongying stock market amounts to tens of trillions of US Dollars, what makes you think our few billions of RMB going in poses no risk?"
