During this period, there have been a lot of applicants coming to the company. More than ten companies suddenly shut down, leaving all their employees unemployed. Our industry is different from others; the circle is so small that you can only move around within a limited number of firms. The remaining companies suddenly found themselves overwhelmed with business, but they had to take it on nonetheless.
Brother Jie called me, saying he wanted to treat me to a meal, but I was too busy to find the time. Finally, Brother Jie couldn't hold on any longer: "Xiao Lin, could you please talk to Sister Hong and ask her to let me come back? Even if the salary is lower and the commission is less, I would still be grateful." But I knew it was no longer possible.
After experiencing those events with Heavenly Above and people like Scarface, Hong Fu despised betrayal the most. She had been hurt too deeply by it! Evergreen Company was about to be sold off. The young boss's wife had fled with all her family's possessions, while Gu Qinglian, who had been abandoned by Huo Changqing, returned.
She first took care of her savings in every possible way, but her limited funds quickly drained away. Next, she planned to sell Evergreen Company with one goal in mind: to shorten Huo Changqing's sentence. We didn't know what Sister Hong was thinking when she told me and Uncle Ming: "I want to take over Evergreen Company!"
Uncle Ming said, "Taking it over is an opportunity; we can negotiate with Huo Changqing's ex-wife. The price should be lower." Sister Hong took me to Huo Changqing's home. The two-hundred-square-meter house was truly bare; everything of value had been moved or sold off. Inside, there were only a few chairs and a coffee table; even the water heater in the bathroom and the kitchen exhaust fan had been removed.
Huo Changqing's wife, Gu Qinglian, looked at the three of us with a bitter smile: "I'm sorry; please make yourselves comfortable. I apologize for not even being able to offer you a cup of hot water." Sister Hong sat down and looked at this woman who was over ten years older than herself but appeared as aged as a fifty-six-year-old grandmother. She felt a surge of respect: "Sister-in-law, I'll get straight to the point; I want to take over your business."
Huo Changqing's wife initially brightened up but then her expression dimmed: "Just give me your price!" Sister Hong held up three fingers: "How about three million?" Gu Qinglian was stunned: "Can you really come up with that much?"
She mentioned that many peers had come to look at the house recently, but since it was a Funeral Home, only those in the same industry were interested. Huo Changqing hadn't managed things well; after the incident, he hadn't seen any good fortune either. Those interested in buying were either taking advantage of his misfortune or trying to rob him.
Cui Mingjiu also came to negotiate but only offered 1.3 million. It's worth noting that just this house alone was valued at 3 million. In times of crisis, friends often turned against you while true help came from enemies.
Gu Qinglian finally realized that when someone dies, they transition from the world of the living to the world of the dead. Similarly, in reality, there are also "two sides" involved in agreements that are signed smoothly, but related paperwork can be troublesome since the owner Huo Changqing was still in detention at that time.
Upon hearing this news, Cui Mingjiu was furious and believed Sister Hong had undercut his offer. He organized several people with his brother-in-law to come to our company for "negotiations," directly accusing Sister Hong: "Aren't you afraid you'll have nightmares doing this?"
Sister Hong didn't expect such a situation and felt a bit dazed. I stepped forward: "Boss Cui, we aren't afraid of Huo Changqing; do you think we would fear these people you brought? Are you trying to follow in Huo Changqing's footsteps? Some of your matters are being handled by him while he's inside; if I were to send a message through Aunt Gu, do you think he wouldn't pull you into it too?"
He immediately backed down and confronted his brother-in-law, saying, "Who invited you here? I came to talk to Sister Hong about something. Why are you all acting like gangsters? What do you mean by hard power?
To be upright in both character and actions, leaving no room for others to criticize or take advantage of you is what true strength is."
