Chapter 80 80. Cleverness on top of cunningness
After listening to Du Chuan's narration, Ji Xuetao fell into silence again. For a moment, he even doubted whether he was listening to a story.

But he knew Li Yuan's identity, and he also knew that the Sixth Textile Factory had recently made some big moves. Combined with what Du Chuan said, everything seemed to make sense.

"Why didn't you tell me this before?" Ji Xuetao came back to his senses and asked subconsciously.

Du Chuan smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle, I can't say much about this kind of thing. If I take the initiative to say it, wouldn't it be like showing off?"

The moment Ji Xuetao said this, he knew he was confused, because he knew the relationship between his daughter and Du Chuan.

From Ji Nian Qing's state, he could naturally see that Ji Nian Qing liked Du Chuan, so Du Chuan was very likely to be his future son-in-law.

He had no other requirements for his daughter's marriage. He was not like his own wife, who had to find someone with a good family background and a bright future. He just wanted his daughter to like her.

So he was very satisfied with Du Chuan before. Now it’s not that he is dissatisfied, but he is suddenly a little unsure.

"Do you have any cigarettes?" Ji Xuetao suddenly asked.

Du Chuan quickly said, "Yes."

As he said this, he took out a cigarette and handed it to Ji Xuetao, and also took out a match to help him light it.

"Does Qingqing know about this?" Ji Xuetao asked after taking a deep puff of cigarette.

Du Chuan said: "I wanted to talk to her last time, but I didn't have the chance. Then I was too busy and didn't have time to talk to her."

Du Chuan was really prepared to tell Jin Yiqing, but their family was together at the time and Du Chuan didn't find the opportunity, so he just thought about waiting.

But I didn't expect to meet Ji Xuetao here.

Ji Xuetao thought about how busy his wife had been recently and nodded, knowing that Du Chuan must be very busy.

"What are you thinking? Aren't you worried about something going to happen? What's more, it's so much money. If something unexpected happens and you lose it, won't you feel sad?" Ji Xuetao asked again.

In response to these questions, Du Chuan said very easily: "I didn't have much idea at the time. The higher-ups found me and expressed their intention in this regard, so I thought about giving it a try."

"After all, this is also a contribution to the country."

"As for accidents, it doesn't matter if I lose the money. At worst, I can just go back to my previous life. I also saved some extra money to ensure that my family can live well."

When Du Chuan said these words, Ji Xuetao kept staring into his eyes, and all he saw was relief.

This made him suddenly feel relieved. He could see the sincerity in Du Chuan's words, but what relieved him most was that he did not see any ambition in Du Chuan's eyes.

Just as Du Chuan himself said, he did not take these things very seriously, nor did he have a strong desire to achieve something.

If Du Chuan is really such a person, he might need to consider Ji Nianqing's choice.

Because he only hopes that his daughter can live a stable and happy life in the future.

However, if he knew Du Chuan's true situation, perhaps he would understand why Du Chuan treated this matter so calmly.

Because this money is completely insignificant compared to Du Chuan's entire wealth.

So Du Chuan doesn't care about the money from the bottom of his heart. It would be best if he could get things done well. It doesn't matter if accidents occur, as they won't affect his foundation anyway.

It can even be said that there was not even a single ripple.

After finishing a cigarette, Ji Xuetao asked for another one. This incident really shocked him. However, Du Chuan's answers also made him feel more or less relieved. At least Du Chuan was not what he imagined.

"Do you know that Qingqing's mother actually works at the Sixth Textile Factory?" Ji Xuetao suddenly said.

This time it was Du Chuan's turn to be stunned. This was something he had not expected. Zhu Hui actually worked at the Sixth Textile Factory. Does that mean she would be his subordinate in the future?

This sudden news caught Du Chuan off guard. When Ji Xuetao saw Du Chuan's expression, he suddenly calmed down and even wanted to laugh.

"What kind of work does your aunt do?" Du Chuan asked dryly.

Ji Xuetao said: "The accountant, she used to work in this compound sometimes. I would come to see her when I had nothing to do."

This is also the reason why Ji Xuetao is familiar with this compound, because of Zhu Hui.

Du Chuan suddenly thought of something, and his heart suddenly jumped, "Well, uncle, auntie hasn't been transferred, right?"

He knew that many people in the Sixth Textile Factory had been transferred by their superiors, and he had reassigned some staff to take over the work in the factory to better cooperate with Du Chuan.

Although most of them are middle and senior level cadres, no one says that Zhu Hui is just doing things, and judging from some of her attitudes, she is very likely a middle level cadre.

If this was because I was transferred, Zhu Hui would probably have an even worse impression of me.

Seeing Du Chuan's nervous look, Ji Xuetao couldn't help but laugh, "Don't be nervous, your aunt has not been transferred and is still employed. Most of the people in their accounting department have stayed."

Thinking about how busy his wife has been recently, and even how worried she is just because of Du Chuan in front of him, Ji Xuetao really found it funny.

In fact, he knew his wife's personality and understood her thoughts, but it seemed that Du Chuan should be able to satisfy her.

"That's good." Du Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Xuetao had completely calmed down at this point and threw away the cigarette butt in his hand. "Okay, tell me the purpose of your visit this time. Do you have any requirements for the house?"

Du Chuan quickly expressed his thoughts, but added at the end, "If it's hard to do, forget it."

Ji Xuetao said, "It's nothing complicated. There happens to be a large basement under this compound. It used to store some means of production. It should be fine with a little modification."

As he said that, he walked back with Du Chuan. At this time, Liang Gang and the others were still staying where they were.

Du Chuan introduced Uncle Gong to Ji Xuetao and asked him to state some of his requirements.

Ji Xuetao then took them to the basement, which was indeed quite large, and very dry, with excellent ventilation. It was obvious that many things had been taken into consideration when it was built.

But it’s normal if you think about it, after all, this compound was previously occupied by high-ranking officials.

In response to Mr. Gong’s requests, Ji Xuetao calmly said that it was no problem and that this was his expertise.

After everything was discussed, it was already noon. Du Chuan suggested that everyone go out for dinner together, but Ji Xuetao refused.

"There are a lot of things to do here, there's no need to be so troublesome." Ji Xuetao said.

Du Chuan was somewhat helpless about this. He couldn't force him to eat, so he could only have a quick meal with Li Yuan and the others, and then he went straight to the Normal College.
