Chapter 41 Xia’s father and daughter
To show his loyalty, Xia Donghai made a phone call to borrow money in front of the mother and her three children. This was only the second time in his life that he had been so willing to spend more than 100,000 yuan on Xiaopang's surgery.
But this time it was truly impossible to borrow money. All his relatives and friends knew about his gambling losses, except for his mother and three children who were kept in the dark. No one would lend money to a gambler who had just lost 100,000 yuan.
After her outburst subsided, Ma Dongmei returned to her role as a virtuous wife and loving mother: "No one is forcing you to borrow money for Xiaobao's surgery. Just live your life well and save money slowly. We women can wait."
Xia Donghai smiled and made a promise, then turned to Xia Tian and asked, "Tian Tian, what did you do with that money?"
“Xiao Bao knows that I bought a pack of diet pills; that makes a lot of money,” Xia Tian said.
"Damn, that's a huge spender. Is this my sister? How did she become so bold?" Little Fatty rolled his eyes. I know you spent a few hundred dollars on two packs, but I didn't know you'd become so successful.
"Medicine packet? What's going on?" Xia Donghai asked.
Xia Tian proudly recounted the business opportunity she had discovered, saying, "I've already developed several downlines and sold quite a lot, all at double the price."
"You're still recruiting downlines? Isn't that pyramid selling? You'd better stop right now, it's illegal," Xia Donghai frowned and said, "How much do you have left? See if you can get a refund. Forget it, you can't get a refund, just get rid of it quickly and don't get involved in these things again!"
"Illegal?" Xia Tian asked in surprise.
“Yeah, remember this from now on: any opportunity that seems too good to be true is a scam unless you have connections,” Xia Donghai added sarcastically, shaking his hand which was in a splint. “If this kind of thing happens again, think about your dad’s hand.”
Xia Tian was a little unconvinced: "Really? People make a fortune doing this, and I've never heard of anyone getting detained."
Xia Tian was clearly bewitched by the pitiful version of Xia Donghai in front of her, and actually dared to talk back.
Xia Donghai's kneeling and submission were only for Ma Dongmei; he still wouldn't indulge his two daughters. He immediately slapped Xia Tian twice across the face, bringing him back to reality.
Summer suddenly realized that the pitiful old man being forced to chop off his hand was her own father, whom she had feared since childhood. The next day, she sheepishly disposed of the batch of medicine packets.
Six months have passed since then, and the pharmaceutical packaging industry has remained calm and thriving.
In the past six months, I often heard my former "colleagues" talk about how much money so-and-so had made and how so-and-so had bought a new car. I felt both angry and envious, and I often complained to Xiaopang: "Your dad and I are very capable, but when it comes to real things, we are timid and hesitant. If I had been working until now, you would have had your surgery long ago."
However, it was clear that Xia Tian complained too early. As it turns out, experience is the best teacher, and Xia Donghai's ability to maintain such a small factory for more than ten years shows he has some foresight.
That medicine bag was specifically investigated by the provincial authorities, and a whole bunch of people, big and small, were arrested, filling several detention centers.
The news made headlines when that group of big fish was caught. Xia Tian was terrified when she saw it. The news said, "A thorough and strict investigation is needed; no effort will be spared in cracking down on this kind of economic fraud." She wondered if she was among those targeted for such a thorough and strict investigation...
A hero's true colors are revealed in turbulent times. At this critical moment, Xia Donghai remained calm and composed: "What's the panic? If they find out, just say I asked you to do it."
As Xia Tian became more involved in society, she developed some resentment towards Xia Donghai, feeling that her father was both incompetent and pretentious. However, Xia Donghai's words deeply moved Xia Tian; he was truly her father.
But in reality, Xia Donghai had his own ideas. He was somewhat selfish. He would treat people who were of benefit to him like his own father, but if they were of no use to him, he would be lucky if he didn't kick you when you fell to the ground.
A clear example is Brother Ma and Little Fatty. He was initially respectful to Brother Ma but later became disrespectful, and he went from being the apple of Little Fatty's eye to a burden. This is the same mentality he had.
He doesn't care about being detained for a few days for the summer. Besides, being detained for economic crimes and then getting out might even become something to brag about.
But Xia Tian can't be detained; Xia Tian has now replaced Xiao Pang as his darling.
If Xia Tian is detained, how will a girl with a prison record find a good husband? How will she have a good grandson? Is she supposed to marry a mentally challenged man and have a mentally challenged grandson? Wouldn't that make her a laughingstock?
Unsurprisingly, Xia Tian, this little shrimp, was quickly exposed by her "upstream" (referring to her superiors).
