Rebirth 1983: Building My Business Empire Chapter 250 - 250 239 A Batch of Antiques

Chapter 250: Chapter 239 A Batch of Antiques Chapter 250: Chapter 239 A Batch of Antiques Su Heyuan didn’t return until after the Lunar New Year, during which ti it was Susan who took care of the clothing factory. When Lu Jiaxin left school that day, she saw him waiting for her.

As Lu Jiaxin spotted him, she noticed he had lost quite a bit of weight; however, the school gate was not the place for chatting, so she calmly said, “Let’s go!”

It was at that mont Dong Jiajia ca running over and curiously asked upon seeing Su Heyuan, “Jiaxin, who is this gentleman?”

“He’s my cousin. Jiajia, I have sothing to take care of, so I’ll leave first. We’ll talk another ti.”

Once they were at a distance, Su Heyuan asked, “You don’t like this female classmate?”

Lu Jiaxin shook her head to indicate she didn’t like her: “Just after I transferred here, she started causing trouble by saying Cui Zhihui likes to bully people, and that a classmate had dropped out because of her. In fact, that classmate and Cui Zhihui were both bullied by other people; she just couldn’t take it anymore and withdrew, while Cui Zhihui wanted to go to college and thus endured.”

“What’s her purpose in doing this?”

Lu Jiaxin sighed, “Cui Zhihui, true to her na, is a very intelligent girl. It’s just that she was rather depressed from being bullied before, which made people keep their distance and also affected her grades. Last year she broke free from her slump and got her act together, finishing the sester exams as the top student in school.”

Su Heyuan felt sowhat emotional, “High school students on the Mainland bury themselves in their studies to get into university, unlike the young ladies here in Hong Kong who have so many other concerns.”

Lu Jiaxin said it went even further: “Ever since Nie Zhan ca to pick up at the school gate to go have dinner, her attitude has turned very warm, adopting a deanor as if we were close sisters.”

If she really beca friends with her, this girl would definitely try to steal soone’s boyfriend. Of course, a boyfriend that could be stolen wasn’t worth pining over, but it was still best to keep one’s distance from such people.

Upon hearing this, Su Heyuan imdiately knew her motive: “Unless so young master is blind, she wouldn’t be able to marry into a wealthy family with her looks.”

Speaking of marriage, Lu Jiaxin looked at him and said, “You’re twenty-seven this year, haven’t Aunt Su and your dad started urging you to get married?”

Su Heyuan admitted they hadn’t: “I need to make money first. Only when I’ve earned a lot will I be able to marry the person I want to.”

Lu Jiaxin knew the type of person he wanted to marry was a beautiful, virtuous woman from a wealthy family who could also give him a hand in his endeavors. But at least he was aware of his circumstances and knew that he needed to make a lot of money in business to marry such a wife.

“I wish you achieve your dreams soon.”

They chatted about these casual topics until they got ho, where Su Heyuan shared the actual news with Lu Jiaxin: “They paid one million, and for the remaining one million, they provided antiques and jade in exchange. Don’t worry, I personally made sure everything was of good quality.”

Lu Jiaxin asked, “Can these items get through customs?”

Su Heyuan shook his head and said, “Ordinary antiques are not restricted, but with the quantity you have and over ten rare pieces, they will definitely be confiscated. So I found soone to help smuggle this batch of antiques over.”

Lu Jiaxin knew at once that he must have turned to those involved in smuggling for help. Nevertheless, as long as the antiques were brought over, she could feign ignorance about the process.

“How much does it cost? I’ll pay you back.”

Su Heyuan waved his hand dismissively, “It wasn’t much. We don’t need to stand on ceremony with each other. You should keep those rare pieces and the jade in your safe, and you can sell the rest to recoup the funds.”

That could work, as long as they weren’t objects of research value or special significance; it was permissible to take ordinary cultural relics out of the country.

Rembering Gu Xiuxiu’s illness, Lu Jiaxin said, “Big Brother Su, could you help sell the ordinary antiques and then deposit the money into my account?”

“Are you worried about the He Family?”

Jiaxin nodded and said, “Yes, I am worried about the He Family. I consulted a lawyer, and even if there is a will, the He Family can request the court to declare the will invalid based on Aunt’s guardianship rights. If they have no sha, they can also recover the large sum of property Aunt bestowed upon and Haifan.”

Su Heyuan said, “It won’t go that far, the property given to you both adds up to only three or four million, the He Family won’t lower themselves so much. However, forget about the property.”

Jiaxin said, “I never really thought about taking Aunt’s property, and now I dare not even consider it. But we can’t be careless about the guardianship, Big Brother Su, when will you have ti? I want to get the guardianship changed over quickly this morning.”

Heyuan said, “It’s too late today, tomorrow. Jiaxin, right now, the He Family is too powerful and we can’t fight them, but when we are capable in the future, we will take back all your Aunt’s property.”

A gentleman’s revenge is not too late even after ten years; his long stay in the Forty-nine City this ti was to send those who had persecuted his family into prison.

Jiaxin had the sa plan, but talking about it now was too early, so he changed the subject, “How much money did your three friends make?”

Heyuan shook his head to indicate he didn’t know, “They can’t bear to sell the Clivia because its price changes every day, they’re still watching. The state will definitely intervene with the Clivia market like this, and the price will plumt then. I told them to sell quickly before I ca back, I hope they’ve taken the advice.”

“How’s your relationship with them?”

“Very good, one of them has given a lot of guidance, saving from taking many wrong turns.”

Jiaxin said, “Then you should call them more often and make sure they sell the Clivia within the next two months.”

This was actually like the ga of passing the parcel, the last one holding the flower when the policy cos down gets stuck. She rembered the policy was introduced around May or June, and then the price of Clivia plumted. It’s March now, if they sell before the end of April, they won’t get stuck.

Heyuan had the sa idea, to make a profit without being too greedy, “I’ll call them in two days, to remind them again. After two warnings, if they still don’t listen and lose everything, they can’t bla anyone else.”

That was the right rationale. She also sold the Clivia to them, so she wanted them to make a profit and then sell it off; otherwise, she wouldn’t have ddled.

After discussing serious matters, Heyuan brought up so gossip, “How’s your progress with Nie Zhan?”

Jiaxin shrugged her shoulders and said, “After going on vacation to Hawaii, I ca back to catch up on classes, and I haven’t had ti to accept his invitations.”

Heyuan joked, “Aren’t you afraid Nie Zhan will lose his patience and stop pursuing you?”

Jiaxin said indifferently, “Whatever happens. I’m only seventeen now, focusing on my studies and my career. Once I have achieved success in my career, I won’t worry about lacking excellent suitors.”

She had a good impression of Nie Zhan; otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone for als and played badminton with him. But she had her own plans and wouldn’t change them for anyone.

Heyuan said, “Nie Zhan cares about you a lot. If you feel it’s suitable, there’s nothing wrong with dating.”

“Eh, weren’t you opposed to it?”

Previously, he hadn’t wanted Jiaxin to date so soon, thinking her too young, but now his opinion had changed, “The situation is different now. If you and Nie Zhan date, the He Family people will have reservations about targeting you.”

“Jiaxin, safety is the most important; everything else can be set aside.”

Jiaxin nodded to show she understood.
