Chapter 2020 A Clumsy Scam
Chapter 2020 A Clumsy Scam
As soon as Shen Xinjun entered the room, he sat on the sofa without saying a word, as if his soul had been sucked out of him.
Su Xingxian was telling Shen Yi and Su Xueqing what happened tonight. Pi Yangyang sat next to him and asked curiously, "Shen Xinjun, tell me, how did those people contact you and take you to Africa to mine?"
Shen Xinjun said with a gloomy expression, "It was Qingqing... no, it was Tang Kexin who accidentally mentioned it. She was chatting with me and told me about a classmate who went to Africa last year to do gemstone business. He wasn't doing well in China at first, but this year he came back, driving a Maybach and buying a mansion in Beijing..."
Pi Yangyang's eyes flickered, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Just because she said that, you believe it?"
"After she told me about this, I became very interested and wanted to go to Africa to do the gem business," Shen Xinjun said with some annoyance. "So I contacted her and asked for her classmate's contact information, hoping that he would take me to Africa to do it together. At first, she refused, saying that if we could go, we would need to invest one million. She said she was worried about the risks, and if I lost money, she would feel bad..."
Pi Yangyang couldn't help but say, "She was trying to retreat in order to advance, provoking you, and you fell for it?"
"Well, later on, her classmate contacted me and said there was a gem mine over there that was ready for development and needed shareholders. She asked if I was interested..."
After hearing this, Pi Yangyang had a rough idea of what was going on.
"Now I understand. She was lying to me from the beginning." Shen Xinjun grabbed his hair with both hands and buried his head deeply. He didn't know whether he was uncomfortable or embarrassed.
"Where's Qin Yuyu? What's going on with him?"
Pi Yangyang asked again.
"He's pretty much the same. He's a mahjong buddy of his mother's. He accidentally let it slip while they were playing mahjong. That buddy said one of her nephews had gone to Africa a while ago to do gemstone business and made millions in just a few months. Qin Yuyu's mother got his contact information and lent him several hundred thousand so he could go to Africa as well..."
Shen Xinjun was much calmer at this time and spoke very clearly.
Pi Yangyang couldn't help but feel relieved.
With Yan Jinfeng's intelligence and her greedy personality, she would certainly not miss such a good opportunity.
Qin Yuyu was a brainless person. When he heard that someone had made money in Africa and Yan Jinfeng gave him one million to go to Africa, he went there without thinking twice.
Most people who get cheated do so because they believe that something good will happen and they always think they will not be fooled.
These two people are of the same kind, no wonder they have such similar tastes.
"Okay, now that you're back, don't think about anything else. Think carefully about what to do next."
Pi Yangyang comforted her and didn't ask any more questions.
After listening to Su Xingxian's story, Shen Yi couldn't help but look at Shen Xinjun and said, "Xinjun, I really don't know what you're thinking! Can you trust someone you met online? She sold you to Africa, and you helped her count the money..."
Shen Xinjun still didn't speak.
"You'd better be more careful in the future and don't trust just anyone." Shen Yi continued to nag, "Your family has a business. The tea plantation is doing so well, why are you still going out to mess around? Stay at home and help your father manage the tea plantation. Isn't that your career? As for good girls, aren't there plenty of them? Your cousin's husband's company has many recent college graduates. Which one can't be more reliable than those people on the Internet?"
Su Xueqing said with deep conviction: "That's right, are you stupid to be sad for a woman like Tang Kexin?"
Shen Xinjun suddenly raised his head, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, "I will go back tomorrow, but I will come back."
Su Xueqing was stunned and asked in confusion: "You will come back? Why, you still don't give up on Tang Kexin?"
"No, I don't want to think about that anymore," Shen Xinjun said. "I want to come to Beijing to start a company and build my own business. I don't believe I can only stay in the countryside for the rest of my life."
Su Xueqing choked, and Shen Yi said unhappily: "What's wrong with the countryside? Your father has contracted so many tea mountains, and you still despise it? Besides, you come to open a company, what kind of company do you want to open?"
Shen Xinjun said, "I'll open a tea company specializing in selling my family's tea! I've made up my mind. I want to build my family's tea into a brand and sell it nationwide."
As he said this, a light flashed in his originally dim eyes.
Shen Yi didn't speak immediately, but looked at him with some surprise.
"Aunt, don't worry, I will do my best." Shen Xinjun said firmly.
Su Xueqing looked at him suspiciously, "Have you really thought it through? You have to know that starting a company is not that simple! First of all, there is capital, then talent, and management. It is a very complicated matter!"
"I've figured it out. I can start from the basics, build a small company, and then gradually expand," Shen Xinjun said. "I believe I can succeed."
Su Xueqing always felt that it was unreliable.
Because she knew very well that Shen Xinjun had always been lazy. He only went to a junior college and spent almost several years hanging out in Internet cafes. He almost didn't even get a diploma.
Moreover, even people on the Internet believe it. How can someone with this kind of IQ do business?
"You have to think clearly. You've already lost a million dollars on this trip to Africa! Your family can't stand you doing that."
Su Xueqing warned.
Shen Xinjun didn't say anything. He was still depressed.
However, he was obviously not convinced and had already made a decision.
"Xueqing, since he wants to do business, let him try." Pi Yangyang thought for a moment and said, "My uncle's tea plantation has good quality. If he can make tea using traditional methods, it's not impossible for him to create his own brand."
"Traditional tea making methods?" Su Xueqing asked in confusion. "Now it's the industrial age, who still uses traditional tea making methods? Not to mention that such artists are hard to find, even if they are found, the production volume is still a problem."
Pi Yangyang smiled calmly, "We can combine modern technology with ancient tea-making methods. Invite a few inheritors of folk intangible cultural heritage to become tea-making masters, and blend their skills into the modern production line. It should be feasible."
"Really? You thought of it a long time ago?" Su Xueqing looked at Pi Yangyang in surprise.
Pi Yangyang nodded. "This is just a preliminary idea. I still need to research how to do it specifically. After all, this is not an area I'm familiar with. However, if I really want to do it, I can find a way to help my uncle make some health-promoting herbal tea. I think there should be a market for it."
Su Xueqing's eyes lit up and she immediately understood what Pi Yangyang was thinking.
With the addition of Pi Yangyang's medicinal tea, it is indeed feasible to establish a tea company.
When Shen Xinjun heard the conversation between Pi Yangyang and Su Xueqing, his eyes lit up.
Although he had already made up his mind to open a company in Beijing, he actually had no reliable idea of how to do it.
Pi Yangyang's words gave him great confidence.
He took out the Ferrari keys and placed them on the coffee table, saying, "Cousin, I'm returning the car to you. If I want to drive one in the future, I'll have to buy one myself based on my own abilities! I'll rush back tomorrow and discuss with my family about opening a company in Beijing. I believe I can do it well."
Su Xueqing looked at him and said, "If you have anything to say, go back and talk to him. Don't act on your own. Your brother-in-law can help you, but whether you can do it depends on you."
"I know." Shen Xinjun stood up, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, brother-in-law, thank you, cousin, aunt..."
Shen Yi's mood also eased a little. She smiled and said, "Okay, now that you've made up your mind, just do it. It's getting late, go get some rest. Your cousin is pregnant and can't stay up late."
Shen Xinjun was stunned for a moment, then said in surprise: "My cousin is pregnant?"
Su Xueqing said: "I just got pregnant, so I'm not that nervous."
Shen Yi said, "How can I not be nervous? Pregnancy is a big deal for a woman! Not only do you have to pay attention to your diet, but you also need to get enough rest. This is not only related to your own health, but also to the future development of your child. So starting today, you must strictly follow the pregnancy care plan I have set for you. When An Weiwei's summer vacation comes, we will come up again and I will take care of you personally."
Su Xueqing said helplessly: "Is it necessary to be so nervous? With Xu Ma and Aunt Tian here, you don't have to worry..."
Shen Yi said seriously: "I'm not worried, I want to make sure you and your child are healthy. The Yan family has not had an easy life, and you must be careful with your first child."
Hearing this, Pi Yangyang felt a little touched and subconsciously glanced at Su Xueqing's belly.
Yes, it’s not easy for the Yan family.
