Chapter 621: Who likes buying lottery tickets, don’t you know?
Ten years ago, the real estate market began to rapidly develop, and housing prices in Hua Country’s big cities skyrocketed. Mr. Xu, Xu Fuhai, also saw business opportunities to speculate on real estate in Jiangzhou Prefecture.Jiang City can’t really be considered a big city, and there weren’t many people speculating on housing, so the Xu Family didn’t make a big profit but could still be considered wealthy.
As for a large company like Ao Shi Group, Xu Fuhai never even considered being able to establish some connections, but who would have thought that this big company would take good care of him, thus increasing his profits significantly.
This time, there was a bit of a problem in the South Mansion of Jiangzhou Prefecture, requiring urgent funds to get through the next month or two, so he thoughtfully approached Ao Shi Group.
"It should be doable, right? Ao Shi Group has taken good care of me, a couple of months should be fine." Xu Fuhai was anxious and pacing back and forth in the office, wringing his hands together and muttering to himself.
"Mr. Xu, Ao Shi Group refused. Mr. Feng personally said, ’Your assets are sufficient for your company to weather the storm.’" The secretary rushed in, saying anxiously.
Liu Fuhai almost fainted, what?
Their assets aren’t enough either, even mortgaging that villa worth millions wouldn’t cover it!
After several hours without success in his office, Xu Fuhai returned home looking distressed. The housekeeper took his briefcase and offered, "The second miss went out to play with her brother; they should be back soon. The eldest miss is in her room chatting with Miss Su Li."
At the mention of Su Li, Xu Fuhai sighed.
This Su Li isn’t the biological daughter of the Chu Family, so relying on this connection to seek help from the Chu Family would be difficult.
Xu Fuhai said irritably, "Is Xiao Shuang still outside playing with a group of boys? Our family is on the brink of bankruptcy, and she’s still playing!"
Just then Xu Haohao came down with Su Li, and seeing Xu Fuhai looking dejected, Xu Haohao scoffed sarcastically, "Bankruptcy? Your Xiao Shuang has struck it rich; what’s there to bankrupt?"
Xu Fuhai was still in shock when he saw Shen Shuang running in with a group of rowdy boys, laughing boisterously, "Dad, you came home early today! I don’t want to go back to school for tutoring this winter break; I want to take my buddies to Europe for a trip."
Xu Fuhai was so angry his face turned green, a trip? And with her buddies?
If the company crisis isn’t handled well, everyone will be left in dire straits!
Su Li looked at Xu Fuhai with a smile and asked, "Uncle Xu, aren’t you curious where Shen Shuang got the money to take all those boy toys... oops, buddies on a trip?"
Five million is not a lot, but what a pity, she’d rather use it all for charity than see Shen Shuang squander it!
Upon hearing this, Xu Fuhai immediately looked suspiciously at Shen Shuang.
Shen Shuang stiffened all over and glared viciously at Su Li.
Shen Shuang watched as her mother came down and brushed her short hair behind her ears, saying, "I... I won seventy million in the lottery, and after taxes, it’s fifty-six million."
Xu Fuhai was first stunned, then overjoyed.
He finally understood Mr. Feng’s meaning, it’s like handing you a pillow just when you’re feeling sleepy!
Xu Fuhai stared at Shen Shuang, ecstatically saying, "Xiao Shuang, the land my company invested in has had some issues, could you loan me forty million first?"
Shen Shuang’s face turned green, she couldn’t help but take a step back, "This... this..."
Shen Shuang brazenly sat down, her tone brash and confrontational, "Dad, you’ve never given me any support, and now you want my money? You have so many friends, can’t you gather a few million?"
Xu Fuhai instantly recalled how he felt guilty about neglecting Shen Shuang.
A gentle voice suddenly popped up, "Uncle Xu, why not ask Haohao if you want to borrow money?"
Xu Fuhai was taken aback, Haohao? Why ask her, this girl isn’t financially independent?
Su Li gave Shen Shuang a meaningful look, which made Shen Shuang feel so uneasy that she tightly clutched her purse.
"Uncle Xu, don’t you know which of your daughters likes to play the lottery?"
