During this period, there were 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 regardless.
Brother Jiezi called me, wanting to treat me to a meal, but I was too busy to find the time. Finally, Brother Jiezi could no longer hold back: "Xiao Lin Brothers, could you please talk to Sister Hong for me? Let me go back, even if the salary is lower and the commission is less?" But I knew it was no longer possible.
After experiencing the events at Heavenly Abode and dealing with someone like Scarface, Hong Fu despised betrayal more than anything. She had been hurt too deeply by it! Evergreen Funeral Company was about to be sold off. The young boss's wife had fled with all her family's possessions. The owner’s wife, Gu Qinglian, who had been abandoned by Huo Changqing, returned.
She started using her savings to settle various matters, but her limited funds quickly drained away. Next, she planned to sell Evergreen Funeral 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 Funeral 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. In the more than two hundred square meter house, it could truly be said to be 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; make do with what you have. I can't even offer you a cup of hot water." Sister Hong sat down and looked at this woman who was over ten years older than her but appeared as old as a fifty-six-year-old lady, feeling a sense of respect: "Sister-in-law, I'll be brief; I want to take over your business."
Huo Changqing's wife initially felt delighted but then her expression dimmed: "Just name your price!" Sister Hong held up three fingers: "How about three million?" Gu Qinglian was shocked: "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 showed interest. 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; this house alone was worth 3 million. In times of crisis, friends turned against him while enemies were the ones extending a helping hand.
Gu Qinglian finally realized that when someone dies, they transition from the living world to the underworld. Similarly, in reality, there are “two sides” to every agreement that can be signed smoothly, but related procedures are complicated because the owner Huo Changqing was still in detention. Upon hearing this news, Cui Mingjiu was furious and believed Sister Hong had undercut his offer. He brought his brother-in-law and several people to our company for "negotiations," directly accusing Sister Hong: "Aren't you afraid of having nightmares at night for doing this?"
Sister Hong didn’t expect such a situation and felt a bit dazed. I stepped forward: "Boss Cui, we’re not afraid of Huo Changqing; do you think we would fear these people you brought? If you bring them here, are you trying to follow in Huo Changqing's footsteps? Some of your matters are being handled by Huo Changqing while he's inside; if I let Aunt Gu pass on a message, do you think he wouldn’t pull you into it too?"
Cui Mingjiu immediately backed down. He confronted his brother-in-law, "Who invited you here? I came to talk to Sister Hong about something. What are you pretending to be, some kind of gang? Hard power means doing things the right way—acting with integrity, leaving no room for others to criticize or take advantage of you."
