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

Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Preparing the Plan

Director Zhang’s home.

"Jiang Cheng, this isn’t something you need to worry about. If you have any difficulties, I’m willing to help you solve them, but there’s no need to say more about other matters."

Director Zhang was serving tea, indicating he was seeing them off. Jiang Cheng didn’t move, and seeing this, Uncle Sun also stayed put.

"There’s no need for Director Zhang to tell me, nor for you to do anything. I just hope that if an opportunity arises, you will seize it."

Jiang Cheng picked up the tea and drank it all in one go.

"Thank you for the tea."

Jiang Cheng stood up, and Uncle Sun quickly put down his teacup, keeping pace with Jiang Cheng.

Director Zhang remained seated, and he suddenly spoke as Jiang Cheng reached the door.

"If there’s an opportunity, I will naturally seize it."

Jiang Cheng, facing away from Director Zhang, smiled slightly.

"That’s enough."

The confident words prompted Uncle Sun to quicken his pace, instinctively opening the door for Jiang Cheng, who was momentarily surprised.

However, it presented a chance to maintain a high profile, and acting the part was fine.

She calmly walked out of Director Zhang’s house, and Uncle Sun trotted behind her by half a step.

Director Zhang’s wife, having sent the two off, went back inside with a curious expression and said, "Who is that young girl? And why does Old Sun look so much like... someone from the palace?"

Director Zhang chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Her name is Jiang Cheng, quite a remarkable young woman."

Elsewhere, Uncle Sun and Jiang Cheng returned to the compound, one after the other, not attracting attention.

Back home, Jiang Cheng called Shen Xing and Shen Yue for their first family meeting.

In the main room, Jiang Cheng and Grandma Shen sat on either side, Shen Xing held paper and pen ready to take notes, and Shen Yue had a serious and solemn expression.

"Today’s meeting has only one purpose, which is how to protect ourselves."

Jiang Cheng’s gaze fell on Shen Yue, and she smiled gently: "Don’t be nervous... Yue Yue."

The tense Yue Yue relaxed a little after hearing Jiang Cheng’s words.

But when she saw Jiang Cheng’s smile, she immediately tensed up again.

"Sis... don’t smile like that, it scares me!"

Jiang Cheng’s wolfish grin widened.

"It’s good to know fear. Will you still fight five people alone next time?"

Shen Yue shook her head, though her expression was clearly defiant.

"They’re the ones who insisted on blocking me!"

Jiang Cheng pulled Shen Yue closer.

"I know, but did you do what I taught you? When the opponent is numerous, what should you do?"

Shen Yue reflected and replied, "Run! And if you can’t, grab the leader and fight them hard!"

Jiang Cheng affirmed Shen Yue’s response and proceeded to do some practical drills.

"See, if it’s a boy, hit here..."

"If the opponent is taller, kick the knee."

"Use all available resources around you, like dirt, branches, and so on..."

...

Jiang Cheng explained and conducted a partial demonstration on the "human dummy" Shen Xing using a bamboo stick.

Shen Xing looked up speechlessly, thinking: Without me, this house would "fall apart"!

After an hour, the family meeting adjourned.

The little ones went inside to sleep, while Jiang Cheng and Grandma Shen remained outside.

"Grandma Shen, could you help me make another batch of sewing bundles..."

"Sure!"

Grandma Shen agreed without even asking.

Jiang Cheng took out a sketchpad, drew several styles on it, and after discussing the required quantities, Grandma Shen got busy immediately.

The next morning, Jiang Cheng left home with her backpack, accompanied by Shen Yue and Shen Xing.

"Jiang Cheng, morning!"

Li Chunxiang, smiling brightly, ran over and eagerly helped push the bicycle.
