She was only five or six years old. Like a porcelain doll, she was extremely cute. Her beautiful eyes were full of tears, and her pitiful appearance was irresistible.
"Okay, if your mother allows it, I'll take you there, okay?" Qinger squatted down and pinched her little face.
"Cousin-in-law is the best!" The little girl suddenly smiled through her tears.
…
"Qinger is back!"
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
The people who were chatting with the old man in the living room stood up and greeted Qinger respectfully when they saw her. Jiang Banxia quickly gave up the seat next to the old man.
Not only Jiang Chao and Jiang Banxia's peers, but even Eldest Aunt and Youngest Aunt were also respectful and nervous.
In fact, the Zhao family of Lin Zhou was just a third-rate family. Originally, they looked down on Qinger a little.
But now, it was different. A wife should be proud of her husband. Jiang Tian was the head of the Jiang family. He made the ruined Jiang family flourish and was famous in Jinling. As Jiang Tian's wife, who dared to disrespect her?
Moreover, she was now a cultivator. It was no exaggeration to say that she could fly in the sky and burrow into the ground like a living immortal. When the Jiang family was attacked by the Dark Ones, she turned the tide. Everyone recognized and was very grateful to her.
"Don't be so polite. Talk about your business!"
Qinger was a little uncomfortable with their trembling respect. It felt like she was a monster.
She nodded and smiled at everyone. Then, she walked to the seat next to the old man and sat down. She smiled and said, "Old Man, Mom, Dad, Jiang Tian asked me to go to Nanyang Star Continent to accompany him …"
"And me …" Jiang Waner pointed at herself, afraid that she would be left behind.
"Ah? He's not coming back for the Spring Festival? "
The old man was a little disappointed.
Qinger naturally wouldn't tell him about Jiang Tian's killing in Southeast Asia. She said, "He's not playing. He wants to talk about some business cooperation."
"Oh? Jiang Tian wants to push our Medicine King Group into the Southeast Asian market? "
The old man took it seriously. He was relieved and chuckled. "Jiang Tian's idea is not bad. There are many Chinese in Southeast Asia, and their acceptance of Chinese medicine is very high. It's easier to enter the market … "
"Wow, this time, is our Medicine King Group going global?" Jiang Banxia and Jiang Lin were suddenly excited.
Zhao Xueqing didn't say anything. The old man immediately expressed his support and said with a smile, "Go, go quickly! You young people have your own careers. It's more important to work hard. You don't have to accompany an old man like me! "
"Alright then, Sister Ziwei, help me book a ticket!" Qinger looked at Ye Ziwei and smiled.
Ye Ziwei immediately made a call to her secretary. When she heard back, she smiled and said, "There are no direct flights to Singapore. You'll have to transfer to Yang Cheng or Zhonghai!"
"Let's transfer to Zhonghai then … I went to university in Zhonghai back then, so I can meet some of my classmates!" Qinger thought for a moment and smiled.
"Okay!" Ye Ziwei answered. Soon, it was done.
…
On the other hand, Jiang Tian had just hung up the phone when Paris smiled sweetly and said,
"Master Kang, good news. The former Venerable Master Red Boat and Premier Li Xianlong are here to see you! They're already outside the island! "
"Why is it good news?"
"They want to invite Master Kang to be the State Preceptor of Singapore!" Paris couldn't hide her excitement.
She felt that she had made the right bet. It was the smartest investment she had ever made, and she was now riding on the coattails of the State Preceptor.
"Let them in!" Jiang Tian's figure flashed and appeared in the main altar hall like a god.
"Disciple greets Master Kang!"
Li Xianlong's face was full of reverence and fear. He didn't dare to say a word. He lowered his head deeply and didn't even dare to look at Jiang Tian.
Venerable Master Red Boat bowed respectfully and said, "Venerable Master Red Boat greets Master Kang!"
"What's the matter?" Jiang Tian was a man of few words.
"We are willing to enshrine Master Kang as the State Preceptor of Singapore. After Master Kang becomes the State Preceptor, he will have the Singapore government as an important ally. All the treasures in Singapore will be at Master Kang's disposal! With Master Kang's wisdom, he won't refuse! "
Venerable Master Red Boat knelt on the ground and said respectfully.
"Singapore will hold a grand coronation ceremony. Many high-ranking government officials and Singapore's rich and powerful families will attend! The Guo family's assets will all belong to Master Kang. With the endorsement of the Singapore government, it will take effect immediately! "Li Xianlong added, bowing deeply.
"Do you think that you have the right to cooperate with me just because you have all the treasures in the Pill Land of Singapore and the power of the rulers of small countries? If I want to get something, won't I be able to come and go as I please? "
Jiang Tian revealed a mocking smile.
Then, under Li Xianlong's shocked gaze, he said calmly, "Remember, you are not my allies, but my slaves. You may have power, but I have your lives in my hands!"
"We understand!" Li Xianlong couldn't resist the majestic pressure and knelt on the ground with a thud.
"However, seeing that you, Li Xianlong, are sensible and didn't provoke me, I will grant you the State Preceptor position!"
"Let me correct you, this is not a coronation ceremony. Why do I need the coronation of a small country's ruler? It should be called a coronation ceremony!"
"Do it as soon as possible, tomorrow morning! My wife will be here tomorrow night, I want to accompany her! "Jiang Tian smiled and slowly walked out of the hall.
"We will follow Master Kang's instructions!" Venerable Master Red Boat said respectfully.
"Thank you, Master Kang! Thank you, Master Kang! This is the blessing of the Li family, the blessing of the people, and the blessing of Singapore! "
When Jiang Tian walked out of the hall, Li Xianlong realized that his back was cold and his body was drenched in sweat.
…
The next day, Qinger flew from Jinling to Zhong Hai International Airport. There was a three-hour break between flights.
Qinger held Jiang Waner's hand and walked out of the airport. They took a taxi and went straight to Huadong University.
Zhong Hai was a first-tier city, second only to the capital, Yan Jing. In terms of prosperity and economic development, it far surpassed Jinling. Even Huiyang City of Lingnan Province was slightly inferior.
When Zhao Xueqing came to this bustling city with simple luggage, her heart was filled with curiosity and awe.
Yet now, she instead felt that all of this was ordinary and not worth mentioning. She was extremely indifferent towards it.
As a self-cultivator, her mentality had changed.
But when she thought of Huadong University, she still had a trace of expectation.
This was her alma mater, where she spent four years of unforgettable university life.
Sweet Cake Dessert Shop on the east side of the school gate.
A red Mercedes-Benz SUV was parked at the entrance. Qinger held Jiang Waner's hand and pushed the door open.
A store manager greeted them warmly, "Welcome, what would you like?"
"A glass of freshly squeezed juice. What would you like, Waner?"
"I want ice cream! Fresh milk! "
A fashionably dressed girl who was sitting with her back to the door heard Zhao Xueqing's voice and quickly ran over. She hugged Qinger and smiled in surprise. "Qinger, you're here!"
"Sister Xu, I'm on a business trip to Singapore. I'm in Zhong Hai, so I came to see you!"
Zhao Xueqing smiled and then looked at the card on the girl's chest. She smiled and said, "You've become the assistant to the chairman of Zhicheng Investment?"
She had also heard of this company. It could be on par with the famous Sequoia Capital and was known as the Softbank of Hua Xia.
"Yes, now Sweet Cake Dessert Shop has opened more than a dozen branches in Zhong Hai and has become the number one cake and dessert brand."
Sister Xu pulled Qinger to sit down and said with a smile, "Brother Ye also withdrew from Sweet Cake and cashed out 200 million! As for me and some of the older members of the team, we followed Brother Ye to start another business! The new platform was invested in by Zhicheng! "
Sister Xu was very beautiful. She was tall, had exquisite facial features, and straight shoulder-length black hair, giving people a very refreshing feeling.
In Zhong Hai, she could be the assistant to the chairman of a big investment company. Her annual salary was also in the millions. At that time in Zhong Hai, she was considered a gold-collar worker.
However, when she mentioned Brother Ye, her face was full of reverence and her eyes were full of stars, like a brainless fan meeting her idol.
"So Zhicheng Investment is Brother Ye's!"
Zhao Xueqing was stunned, then nodded and smiled. "Yes, he's not a simple person. In the end, he has to pursue a bigger career!"
"Yes, back then, Brother Ye was only a fourth-year student. I was still a graduate student. When he brought us to start a business, I only thought that he was messing around. Who knew that he would turn a small dessert shop into the number one dessert brand in Zhong Hai in just a year!"
Sister Xu smiled and said, "However, I later found out that he was actually Ye Qide's grandson. That's why he's so extraordinary!"
The waiter brought two cups of freshly squeezed juice and a cup of fresh milk ice cream for Jiang Waner.
Zhao Xueqing sipped the juice and was slightly stunned. "What? He's actually Ye Qide's grandson! Our market economics textbook was written by Professor Ye Qide! "
Zhao Xueqing majored in finance at Huadong University's Business School. It could be said that Ye Qide's existence was like a god to students of this major.
In the early days of reform and opening up, as the dean of the School of Economics and Management, he proposed a market economy theory with the characteristics of Hua Xia. It was like thunder in spring, avoiding the debate of capitalism or capitalism, and proposed a clear idea for Hua Xia's reform and opening up.
Later, he entered the core of Beijing's power and became the chief think tank of Deng Gong and many other leaders. He made indelible contributions to the economic development of Hua Xia.
Now, Ye Qide was already a prominent figure in the field of economics in Hua Xia. His every move could change the fate of an industry and region. He could give lectures to leaders in the Government Administration Council. Many provincial officials and the richest people on the Forbes list were his students. He was known as the "Imperial Tutor" in the field of economics in Hua Xia.
"Yes, Ye Haochen is really too low-key. If someone else had such a background, wouldn't their tail be raised to the sky?"
Sister Xu said with a face of reverence, "But Haochen never talked about these relationships in front of his teachers and classmates. He didn't even publicize or use these relationships at work. A year ago, when I went back to school to attend the alumni gathering, I heard from our school's Dean Li that he didn't know Ye Haochen's identity at that time! "
"Oh, so he's so powerful!" Zhao Xueqing said in surprise.
"You didn't know? You didn't contact him? "
Sister Xu was surprised.
Seeing Zhao Xueqing nod, she said coquettishly, "You really have no conscience! Ye Haochen was extraordinarily good to you back then! If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have been able to go to university! "
"That's true, but …" Zhao Xueqing said with a wry smile.
It could be said that Zhao Xueqing had always been very grateful to Ye Haochen. However, after she graduated from university, she immediately married Jiang Tian. Her life was a mess, and there was an endless mess to clean up. How could she have time to contact these old friends of hers?
