Mixed in 1980

Chapter 158 Arrangements for Ali
Xu Jinqiu glared at Chen Fan angrily: "Not only do we need to give an explanation to our family, we also need to give an explanation to the outside world. Otherwise, our family will be too embarrassed to hold their heads up."

Gossip can kill people, especially in a place like a slum. When Xu Jinqiu got engaged to Chen Fan and lived with Zhao Yuanyuan in Chen Fan's house, the gossip never stopped.

Now that this relationship has been exposed, both families can forget about raising their heads in the yard. They will be pointed at and criticized every day and cannot live in peace.

Chen Fan pondered for a moment and said, "After we go back, we will buy a big yard first, and you two families can move out of the compound. It would be best if Yuanyuan's family can move out as well."

"It's better to move out. The slum is not a good place. Cut off contact with that place. I don't have any particularly good friendship there anyway." Xu Jinqiu nodded.

Zeng Ali had no objection either, as she felt the same way about the slum.

"Uncle Zeng and Aunt Liu both have jobs, so people will inevitably ask about it, and we have to give an explanation to the public."

Chen Fan thought for a moment and looked at Zeng Ali: "Sister, why don't you become a Hong Kong citizen? If anyone asks, just say you immigrated to Hong Kong and are working here."

Zeng Ali thought about it and didn't object.

Nowadays, immigration is still considered a glamorous thing by many people. It won't be embarrassing for parents to say so, and they can still deal with the matter.

Chen Fan considered this issue mainly based on the environment in the mainland. His behavior is currently considered to be promiscuous.

It is 81 now. In two years, people will die.

This is how she did it, and Zeng Ali felt wronged: "Sister, you have management experience now, why don't we start our own company?"

"Start your own company?" Zeng Ali blinked.

I have never thought about this question: "What type of company should I start? I have never run a serious company."

"Among the necessities of life, clothes come first. How about we go into the clothing industry? Sister Ying has ready-made resources. We can go there to study for a few months and get a thorough understanding of the industry. Then we can create our own brand?" Chen Fan suggested.

"Wait a minute, what do you two mean? Do you really want to keep my elder sister in Hong Kong?" Before Zeng Ali agreed, Xu Jinqiu was unhappy.

I originally wanted to ask my elder sister to share the burden of this indestructible ox. If I keep my elder sister in Hong Kong, wouldn’t it be a waste of time?

"Leave it for a while, and we'll talk about it after 1989."

Chen Fan rubbed Xu Jinqiu's head and looked at Zeng Ali: "What do you think? It would be nice to stay for a while and start a business of your own."

Zeng Ali said, "Then let's give it a try."

"There's no rush. I'll wait until I buy the yard and my family moves in. Also, I need to find someone to connect me with for the job at Beijing University."

"Listen to you!"

"That's settled then. We have an explanation to the public now. The only thing left is how to tell this to my family. I'll be frank with them then. The worst that can happen is that I'll get beaten up."

"You are usually very cunning, but are you pretending to be honest now? Tell your family directly. If there is a quarrel, no one will be embarrassed." Xu Jinqiu rolled her eyes.

"It's not good to lie about this, right?" Chen Fan frowned.

As a man, you have to take the responsibility you should. Having a wife, even if you get beaten a few times, it's still worth it.

"You usually act in a roundabout way, why are you pretending to be so straightforward now? Forget it, as for your family, just follow my ideas, then everyone can accept it." Xu Jinqiu laughed.

"Tell me about it!" Chen Fan asked curiously.

"I won't tell you. I'll go talk to Yuanyuan. She has to help smooth things over. If she lets it slip, everything will be ruined." Xu Jinqiu took Zeng Ali's arm and left.

Chen Fan was in a state of confusion, and was he deliberately keeping people in suspense? However, this girl was treacherous, and she might be able to come up with a good idea.

"Let her do whatever she wants!"

Chen Fan sighed, lay down on the bed, and thought carefully. In order to let Zeng Ali stay in Hong Kong, he had to get a good business.

Can't treat her unfairly!

Since we are starting with the clothing industry, we should create a brand. It cannot be a small third-tier brand. We should create a first-tier brand. That would be more interesting.

If you want to become a first-tier brand, the investment will be huge. Chen Fan thought that he had to throw money into it. With the current amount of funds in hand, it is highly likely that he will not be able to do it.

"We still need to make money!"

Just as he was thinking about it, Zeng Ali walked in. Seeing him lying on his bed, her pretty face blushed slightly. She came over and patted him: "Hurry up and lie down in your room."

Chen Fan pulled the man over to sit down: "This is also my house now."

Zeng Ali felt her face getting hot, and spat, "Chen Fan, don't push your luck. I just agreed to give it a try with you, don't think too much."

"What do you mean by trying? Comrade Zeng Ali, are you going to deny your responsibility now?"

Chen Fan held her in his arms and blew a breath of hot air into her ear. Zeng Ali felt weak all over: "Who doesn't admit it? You said it yourself, let's try it."

Chen Fan hummed softly: "Then let's try it?"

Try? It's not a try. Zeng Ali sat up straight with embarrassment: "Stop making trouble first, let's talk about business. Yuanyuan also wants to stay and help me."

"She helps you?"

Hearing this, Chen Fan burst out laughing: "She needs someone to take care of her, but if you two are together, you can take care of each other, and I will feel more at ease."

Zeng Ali rolled her eyes at him and said, "Yuanyuan is a little lazy in life, but she is not lazy at work. She has done everything she should do at Beijing University."

"When we go to work on Monday, let Sister Ying arrange for the naturalization process." Chen Fan reached out and hugged her again: "After I go back, my mother will beat me to death. She came out and threw her two goddaughters here."

Zeng Ali laughed out loud. The godmother is most rare in the garden and must be reluctant to let go. Chen Fan will definitely become a punching bag, and he will inevitably be beaten.

That's what Chen Fan deserves.

Just as she was laughing, she suddenly felt something was wrong, a sense of oppression came from her chest. Zeng Ali's pretty face turned red, and she gritted her teeth: "Chen Fan, take your claws away from me."

Chen Fan chuckled: "Sister, why not give it a try?"

Zeng Ali slapped his hand away: "Qiu'er is right, you are just greedy. Also, don't call me big sister. I feel scared when I hear these two words."

"What is that called?" Chen Fan smiled.

Zeng Ali's eyes widened, not knowing what to say. The relationship had changed so suddenly: "Think about it yourself. Anyway, you are not allowed to call me Big Sister anymore."

"Is that called a wife?"

Zeng Ali blushed again, but did not object. Chen Fan smiled and said, "Wife, shouldn't we fulfill our obligations?"

"you……"

Before he finished speaking, he felt a soft touch on his lips. Zeng Ali felt her mind go blank and she responded to him involuntarily.

It was not until he felt a cool sensation on his chest that Zeng Ali realized that all his buttons were unbuttoned. He shuddered with fright and quickly pushed the person away.

Then, they dragged the man out.

Chen Fan stood at the door, his face full of black lines. This girl changed her expression too quickly? She kicked him out so suddenly.

Okay, let’s go back to our room.

Xu Jinqiu was reading a book. Chen Fan walked over, hugged her from behind, and kissed her on the side of her face: "Wife, I'm sorry!"

"I don't blame you!"

Xu Jinqiu turned around and hugged Chen Fan: "Let's not talk about this anymore. If we continue, everyone will feel uncomfortable."

Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Xu Jinqiu raised an eyebrow: "Why did you come back? Didn't you take the opportunity to capture the eldest sister?"

"..."

The weekend passed quickly and we went back to work on Monday. Li Hongying also came, but she looked a little haggard: "You are right. Most of the funds in the real estate market are flowing to England."

Chen Fan was not surprised at all: "It's inevitable. How is your family doing now?"

"My family has agreed to sell the car, and we've started contacting buyers. I hope it's still in time." Li Hongying couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was inevitable that she would lose money this time.

"Half a year should be enough. If you really can't sell them, just hold on to them. The British devils are sucking the blood of Hong Kong, and this wave is sure to be more than one."

"You mean, they will repeatedly push up housing prices?" Li Hongying's eyes lit up.

"It is inevitable. Only when housing prices rise can the value of land be maximized. The British will not just reap the benefits in one go. However, this process will take several years."

Li Hongying nodded and said that if the house could be sold, it must be sold first. Once the property market collapsed, a large amount of funds would be locked up in the house, and high interest would have to be paid, which would really drag the Li family down.

But this is the Li family's business. Chen Fan reminded them that he had already done his best to show friendship and there was no need to interfere in other people's affairs. He changed the subject and talked about Zeng Ali and Zhao Yuanyuan.

One is to become a Hong Kong citizen, and the other is to go to a company to study, preferably to the Philippines to sell clothing. Chen Fan also plans to enter the light luxury market.

"These are all minor matters. I can arrange them later. As for you and Qiu'er's residence permits, I said we would apply for them last year, but they have been delayed until now. It's just the right time to get them for you."

"Then I'll trouble Sister Ying."

Chen Fan smiled and nodded, then took out a cigarette and lit it up: "One more thing, there is still a lot of money in the publishing house's account, and I plan to distribute it as dividends."

"Do you plan to continue investing in futures?"

Apart from this, Li Hongying couldn't think of where else he would need the money. She could only sigh that this kid had a strong gambling habit and would spend any money he had.

"There is no sign of interest rate cut in the US so far, so I plan to give it another try." Chen Fan made up an excuse casually. His main purpose was to get more money to prepare for Zeng Ali.

If you want to build a brand, it will cost a lot of money.

Li Hongying had no objection. Investing in a business is all about making money. In order to cope with future changes in the property market, the Li family also needed to prepare sufficient funds.

She even wanted to give it a try!
Deliver the futures purchased previously and then increase the funds. If you lose the bet, it will be considered as a loss of the principal of 500 million Hong Kong dollars, but if you win the bet, you can raise a large sum of money for the family.

After the matter was settled, Chen Fan took a document and went straight to the Bank of East Asia to find Yu Jing: "Help me see how much the maximum loan amount can be."

Yu Jing flipped open the document and was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Chen, I can't give you a quote for this. I need a bank professional to evaluate it before I can give you a quote."

"how long it takes?"

"It will take at least three days."
