Reborn 1980 Married to the toughest guy in the army
Chapter 2677 Oldest Brother 2: Father, why do you always favor him?
Qiao Ya was very surprised after hearing Hai Jing's words; she hadn't expected her husband to become so intelligent.
He used to be so single-minded and didn't have so many thoughts, but now he's become somewhat cunning and ruthless.
It seems the Hai family has good genes.
Having already had Qiao Liancheng, and now Hai Jing, just thinking that the man in front of her was her husband made her inexplicably happy, as if all her efforts had been rewarded.
Then Joa remembered the Rainbow's launch and asked Hai Jing:
"What are your thoughts on Rainbow?"
"Wouldn't it be dangerous to throw them into Antarctica?"
Hai Jing said, "There are definitely some dangers, but as long as we don't get too close to the Antarctic ice, and the ship doesn't get frozen inside or run aground, there shouldn't be any major problems."
"The key is that our Rainbow is so big."
"That's a five-story luxury cruise ship, how could it sink so easily?"
That's what Qiao Ya thought, and that's what Hai Jing thought too.
What they didn't know was that a giant cruise ship had sunk in history after hitting an iceberg, but at that time, information was relatively scarce.
They simply didn't know this news yet.
The couple discussed it for a while and finally decided to continue down this path, determined to empty and swallow up the Pei family.
On the morning of the second day, Haijing went out to explore the route in a very serious manner.
Then they planned the launching and maiden voyage ribbon-cutting of the Rainbow.
The shipping magnate waited leisurely at home, trusting his eldest son to handle the matter.
Qiao Ya also went out to help with the work.
Seeing Qiao Ya now wholeheartedly devoted to her eldest son, and seeing that her eldest son and daughter-in-law are no longer as recklessly demanding as before.
It had a sense of harmony within the family, which made the shipping magnate even more satisfied.
At this moment, his second son called and asked, "Why did you withdraw all the cash from the branch office back to China? You should know that at this critical juncture, no investment will yield any return."
"Moreover, you've diverted so much funding; if something goes wrong, we'll suffer a severe blow."
The shipping magnate, somewhat annoyed, said, "Just do what I tell you to do. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
He should have explained the situation to his second son. If he had, his second son might have been smarter and could have given him some useful advice.
At least they could have dissuaded us from going to our doom so soon!
However, the shipping magnate remembered what his eldest son had said to him last night.
At the time, Haijing said, "We can't tell my second brother about this for now. He's a bit impulsive and has a fiery temper."
"He doesn't know how to be patient."
“Our whole family are staunch anti-China, what if he knew we used this money to build a bridge in China?”
"If he understands, that's fine. He knows we want to make money off Chinese people. But if he doesn't, he might think we're trying to curry favor with China and are preparing to betray our previous beliefs."
"If he does something rash in a moment of weakness, all our efforts will be in vain."
"The best way is to keep it from him for now."
"Once the matter was almost settled, he saw the signs and stopped opposing it."
Seaview also learned the art of tea conversation, and after this exchange, the shipping magnate found it deeply insightful.
They listened to his every word, so they used the excuse that the company needed money for cash flow to withdraw funds from overseas.
But they didn't give him a decent reason.
Furthermore, they remained completely silent about the huge sum of money that was about to be invested.
When the second son heard his father say this, he knew that his father had always favored his eldest brother since childhood.
So he didn't find it strange that he was speaking in his elder brother's favor now.
Instead, he felt more disappointed, and finally, after a moment of silence, he said:
"Alright, after these funds are withdrawn, I will give you 4% of the overseas profits every year, and I will not give you the rest."
The shipping magnate immediately flew into a rage upon hearing this: "What do you mean? Are you trying to rebel?"
Because the second son's words clearly indicate that he wants to sever ties with the main body in Hong Kong, establish himself as king, and no longer be subject to its control.
The second son replied, "No, I just want us to separate and operate our own businesses."
“If the headquarters back home runs into trouble, we can still provide support. But if we give you all our output, what will I use to help you if you encounter problems later?”
The shipping magnate gritted his teeth in anger and roared, "Don't forget, you're also a member of the Pei family. Don't think you can be independent just because you're overseas."
“You’ve only been abroad for a little over a month, and your older brother is still running the business overseas.”
How could you just steal it like that?
The second son didn't want to waste any more words with him. He felt that no matter what happened or what was said, his father was always on his eldest brother's side.
They didn't take him seriously at all.
Since that's the case, what else is there to say?
So he said casually, "I have a meeting to attend to, let's talk about it later."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
The shipping magnate gritted his teeth in anger, picked up the phone on the table, and smashed it out.
Outside the door, a maid wrote down everything she heard and then turned to report it to the young master.
This maid was recently recruited by Haijing. After impersonating the young master, Haijing deliberately kept an eye on the Pei family's servants.
In his view, although these servants were the lowest-ranking, they were also the ones who understood the situation best and were the ones who could help him the most.
If used properly, it will definitely be more useful than those who have power.
Therefore, Haijing has been very gentle with them at home these days, and often gives them small favors.
A couple of days ago, I heard that A-Yue's parents were sick and were waiting for money to have surgery.
A-Yue told the housekeeper about this, and the housekeeper only said that according to the rules, she could get two months' salary in advance, provided that she had worked for their family for more than three years.
Ah Yue has only been here for two and a half years, and it will be six months before she reaches three years.
He said it didn't meet the standards and rejected A-Yue's application. When A-Yue was crying alone in the garden, Hai Jing heard her.
After asking Haijing in detail, he didn't say much. Afterwards, he sent someone to investigate and confirmed that what Ayue said was true.
Haijing immediately paid for Ah Yue's parents to go to the hospital and have them undergo surgery.
Only after the surgery was successful was A-Yue allowed to return to work.
Therefore, A-Yue was completely devoted to him.
Having overheard the news, he naturally went to tell Haijing immediately.
After A-Yue left, Hai Jing looked at Qiao Ya.
What's your opinion on the second young master of the Pei family?
Qiao Ya pursed her lips and said, "This second young master is very smart, and obviously smarter than the eldest brother, and more capable than his elder brother."
"In my opinion, if we don't interfere, the Pei family will be the second son sooner or later."
