Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 314

Chapter 314: Chapter 317: Return Once More

In Country M, at Rose’s family meeting, it was his elder brother Chase who was speaking.

"Hua Xia has a large population. From their development in recent years, it’s clear that in the coming years, their consumer spending will activate the entire market."

"I suggest we seize the opportunity to intervene before their domestic industries fully blossom, quickly capture the market, and take this juicy piece of Hua Xia."

Chase’s theory is backed by a lot of data, and the family’s think tank supports this decision.

The current family head, dragging his frail body, looked towards Chase.

"Chase, where do you plan to start?"

"Food, clothing, shelter, transportation; let’s start with food."

"Any developing country will naturally first improve lives in terms of food."

Chase showed a confident smile and said, "As far as I know, there’s currently only one dominant player in the Hua Xia condiment market, and defeating him is easy."

After Chase finished speaking, Rose proposed a different suggestion: "We don’t have a production line for Hua Xia condiments and don’t understand the tastes of Hua Xia people. Isn’t it too risky to suddenly invest in a new production line?"

With a disdainful look, Chase glanced at Rose, as if looking at something dirty.

"Rose, no wonder you lost."

Chase didn’t bother explaining to Rose, and Rose was once again ignored by everyone.

At the end of the family meeting, Chase was permitted by the family head to go ahead.

Rose, who fell behind others, might have joined Chase if he hadn’t met Jiang Cheng.

But now, he felt Chase looked like a clown.

Suddenly, Rose was delighted.

He was quite looking forward to seeing Chase running hurriedly away from Hua Xia.

At the same time, Jiang Cheng finished his business in Country F and boarded a plane back to Hua Xia.

The plane landed in Beijing, and Jiang Cheng and his two companions took a taxi to the company first.

Back at the company, Jiang Cheng busily handled the backlog of tasks.

"Knock knock—"

"Come in."

The office door was pushed open, and Jian Yueer handed a fax to Jiang Cheng.

"From Country M."

"Thank you."

Jiang Cheng picked it up.

It was an encrypted message from Rose. It was an agreement between the two, using a book as the basis for sending secret messages.

After delivering it, Jian Yueer left, and Jiang Cheng opened the cipher book, decoding Rose’s message.

Chase is coming to Hua Xia.

"Perfect timing."

Jiang Cheng had prepared for this moment for a long time.

The wheels of history often have similarities; ever since Hua Xia vigorously sought foreign businesses, Jiang Cheng knew that there would be a time when foreign capital would invade.

Many great domestic products were being crushed by the wheels of history during this period, fading into dust.

In modern times to come, it’s surprisingly difficult to find someone with thick hair.

But now, the streets are full of Hua Xia people with abundant energy and thick hair.

Jiang Cheng knew there would inevitably be corrupt businessmen in Hua Xia; she couldn’t prevent others, but she could maintain herself.

Preserving herself meant fending off these malicious foreign entities.

The first battle starts with Chase.

Jiang Cheng, full of determination, felt her long-lost blood surging, making her eyes shine brightly.

Indeed, she’s suited for battle!

After handling the backlog, Jiang Cheng prepared to go home.

Before going home, she secretly called Shen Que’s machinery factory and confirmed with Shen Que’s secretary that he hadn’t left yet.

"I’ll go pick him up, make sure you keep it confidential."

Shen Que’s secretary replied very softly, "Don’t worry, President Jiang."

After hanging up, Shen Que’s secretary couldn’t help showing a smile from being fed a mouthful of dog food.

Suspiciously, Shen Que asked, "You’re in a relationship? If you need time, feel free to take a few days off."

"Ah? No, no, I... it’s just... that..."

"No need to explain, no need to feel embarrassed, you’re not young anymore."

On the other side, Shen Que drove very slowly because once they got home, others would snatch Jiang Cheng away.

He wanted to spend more time with her.

Talking along the way, when a cyclist overtook Shen Que’s car from outside, they muttered: "Showing off a broken car, for what!"

Misunderstood all the way for showing off, Shen Que finally arrived home.

Grandma Shen, who was chatting at the alley entrance, initially didn’t pay attention. Only after seeing Jiang Cheng get out of the car did she stand up energetically.

"You’re back!"

"Auntie, I missed you so much!"

Jiang Cheng affectionately supported Grandma Shen, whose smile never faded.

Once again Shen Que was perfectly ignored, but luckily, he was used to it.

At night, when Shen Xing and Shen Yue returned, Jiang Cheng became even busier.

Checking Shen Xing’s progress in language studies, admiring Shen Yue’s new painting, and reviewing Shen Yue’s newly serialized book; everything was so busy that Shen Que was left waiting dejectedly.

After Jiang Cheng freshened up, she raised an eyebrow teasingly, saying: "Which family’s young gentleman is so handsome?"

Shen Que’s pouty expression lasted less than a minute before being broken by Jiang Cheng’s teasing, and he cooperated, saying, "Your family’s, what are you waiting for, my dear?"

Such an invitation, naturally, wouldn’t be delayed.

Beauty leads astray, making one enthralled.

Ten fingers locked, rising and falling.

Through the night, Jiang Cheng and Shen Que woke up a bit late.

The two had breakfast alone, as everyone else had gone out—some to school, some for walks.

The alone time they wanted was found in this moment.

"Ring ring—"

The urgent phone ring interrupted their quiet moment.

Jiang Cheng turned around to answer the phone.

"This is Jiang Cheng."

"President Jiang—there’s been an incident at the food factory!"
