The Red Era: Starting from a Truck Driver

Chapter 320 An Accidental Guess

Jiang Cheng took Jiang Juan and the others to Shenzhen, where he was bound to meet Zheng Ke.

Because Jiang Juan was going to the headquarters of Jiangdonglai in China, and Zheng Ke was in the publicity department of the headquarters. Jiang Juan's former junior high school classmate Liu Li was also managing finances at the Shenzhen headquarters.

In the past, there was no general manager at the Shenzhen headquarters, and each department was independent. There were no instructions from Hong Kong, and each department only had to manage its own affairs.

When no one was in charge, and Zheng Ke in the Propaganda Department was not doing things in a formal way, her daughter Zheng Shuang was often brought to the company by her.

Jiang Cheng used to go to the company as a driver. If his daughter Zheng Shuang was also in the company, he would try his best to avoid Liu Li.

Now he has a niece named Jiang Juan, who is also a general manager, the highest position in the domestic company. Jiang Cheng doesn't plan to show up at the company anymore, as it would be bad if his daughter Zheng Shuang was seen calling him dad.

"What? The newly transferred general manager of the company is your niece. You are really good at using backdoors."

"That's nothing. When our Xiao Shuang grows up, I can get her to work as a leader in the company."

At Zheng Ke's residence, Jiang Cheng hugged Zheng Shuang and said to Zheng Ke with a smile.

Jiang Cheng naturally had to inform Zheng Ke about his niece's joining the head office as a manager. After all, Jiang Juan was Zheng Shuang's cousin.

In a few years, if Jiang Fei and the others really took over the company, and if they saw the development market in China and came to China, Jiang Chengdu couldn't imagine the scene of this family meeting.

But in fact, the easiest place is Hong Kong, because Shen Li did not shy away from her children, she was Jiang Cheng's concubine, and the first wife did not know about their situation.

So Jiang Fei, Jiang Yue and Jiang Fan now all know that they are the second wife's children, but this situation is too common in Hong Kong. Since they knew it from the beginning, they didn't think there was anything wrong with their identities.

At least compared to the poor, they live a good life. Although their mommy is a concubine, it is enough that daddy loves them.

The key is that Shen Li has now instilled in them some ideas of rich girls. Their dads will let them inherit the company's wealth, so what they have to do is to work hard to improve themselves.

According to the wealthy families in ancient times, they and their younger brother were concubines' daughters and sons. If they did not work hard, even if their parents loved them, they could not compete with the legitimate descendants.

"Jiang Cheng, tell me the truth, what is your relationship with the female leader in Hong Kong?" Zheng Ke sat next to Jiang Cheng and asked the question that had been puzzling him in a serious manner.

At first, Zheng Ke only knew that Jiang Cheng drove for a boss in Hong Kong, but after working in Shenzhen for so many years, he naturally knew some things.

It was no secret that the business owner who came to Shenzhen was a woman, because she had met many leaders in Shenzhen and had given them many shopping coupons.

Although Zheng Ke came here later, she knew about this matter after asking around. It was said that at the beginning, the female leaders from Hong Kong would bring their children here every month to attend social events.

After the factories and shopping malls were built, I don’t know why I never came back to China again.

But now Zheng Ke found that Jiang Cheng was too capable. He could place anyone he wanted in the domestic Jiangdonglai company. She was the head of the publicity department at that time. It seemed that she received an appointment from the Hong Kong headquarters not long after she came to Shenzhen.

But after so many years, Zheng Shuang was already in primary school, and Zheng Ke had never seen a leader to supervise her. In the Propaganda Department, whether it was right or wrong, it seemed that she had the final say.

In addition to Zheng Ke herself, she also knew that Jiang Cheng had placed her sister and brother-in-law in the food factory and the garment factory to be in charge of dormitory buildings and so on.

He opened two small shops, and his source of goods was still from Jiangdonglai shopping mall.

Zheng Ke also knew Liu Li from the Finance Department. Of course, it was Jiang Cheng who took the initiative to tell her that a technical secondary school student could actually be arranged to go to Hong Kong for internship.

Liu Li is only in her twenties now and works as a supervisor in the company's finance department. Zheng Ke doesn't believe that it wasn't Jiang Cheng's effort.

It is even more outrageous now. A niece has become the general manager of a domestic head office. Domestic college students are indeed the chosen ones, but that is only for ordinary people.

Normal college students can only work as assistants to store managers. If it is in Hong Kong, a college student in China may not be qualified to intern there.

Various signs indicate that a normal large company would not allow Jiang Cheng, a driver, to randomly assign people to other companies like this, which means that Jiang Cheng has a special relationship with that female leader.

Zheng Ke had this suspicion for a long time, but she had never asked him out loud. She suspected that her man was having an affair with the female leader. If that was the case, the female leader was a married woman, after all, she had a child.

"What can I do with my leader~~."

"Don't touch me. Tell me the problem honestly."

Jiang Ben originally wanted to hug Zheng Ke and cover up the matter, but before he could hug her waist, she pulled away.

Jiang Cheng could only pull his hands back without hugging Zheng Ke, and continued to hug Zheng Shuang with both hands and kissed her. Having a daughter in his arms could ease some of Jiang Cheng's embarrassment.

"I am a family man, how could I have any relationship with the leader? Please don't think too much about it." Jiang Cheng didn't dare to look into Zheng Ke's eyes. He hoped that his daughter in his arms would stand up to protect him.

But this time he really couldn't fool around anymore. Getting his niece to the position of general manager was not just a suspicion for Zheng Ke. It was almost a definite guess.

But think about it, if Jiang Cheng was driving for a male boss, even if he trusted him, it would be impossible for him to place someone who was not competent enough for the position.

A technical secondary school student could go to Hong Kong for internship and then become a financial manager, which even college students could not become. Even so, it is understandable that he took a backdoor.

Jiang Cheng's sister and brother-in-law, even if they were placed there, were only some unimportant positions. The key point is that this niece is a bit outrageous. She became an intern store manager right after graduation, and in less than two years, she came to the head office as the general manager, managing more than 20 shopping malls, and will soon expand 30 more shopping malls.

Zheng Ke raised these questions directly, and now he was forcing Jiang Cheng to tell him what his relationship with the female leader was.

If he really had an affair with a married woman, he would have arranged so many relatives to sneak into the company. Zheng Ke felt like the sky was about to fall, and even felt sick.

Maybe Zheng Ke also has double standards, thinking how could Jiang Cheng seduce a married leader who has children. It's hard not to feel dirty when another man has entered your body.

But Zheng Ke knew that Jiang Cheng had a wife, but she didn't think Jiang Cheng was dirty because she thought that she didn't give her first time to Jiang Cheng, and she was already husbandless.

Zheng Shuang was young and didn't understand the situation. She felt that her parents were arguing but it didn't seem like it. She could only hug her father as hard as she could. She felt that her father might have made a mistake and her mother was blaming him.

Jiang Cheng felt overwhelmed. Just a moment ago, he was still boasting about his ability and being able to use the back door. The next moment, he was facing interrogation. It was also obvious that this interrogation was not accidental, and Zheng Ke must have been enduring it for a long time.

The fact that his niece Jiang Juan was brought in and even became the general manager was just a fuse that caused Zheng Ke's inner doubts to burst out.

I can't come up with any good reason.

"Take a look at this." Jiang Cheng took something out of his pocket and gave it to Zheng Ke.

"This is~, my ID card in Hong Kong. How do I have an ID card in Hong Kong?" Zheng Ke took the thing from Jiang Cheng and asked in shock after seeing what it was.

"Please arrange your work and come with me to Hong Kong the day after tomorrow." Jiang Cheng responded. The three women were hiding things from each other, and Jiang Cheng felt too exhausted. He just didn't expect that it was because of arranging Jiang Juan's work that Zheng Ke's "blind" guess would be made.

Although the guess was wrong, Jiang Cheng still couldn't explain it all. In this case, Jiang Cheng faced it calmly.

Of course, it is also possible that Jiang Cheng really doesn't care as much about Zheng Ke and Shen Li as he does Zhou Lingying, so he can be so calm after being exposed in front of them.

Because facing Zheng Ke, Jiang Cheng felt that if she couldn't accept it, then that was the only way. If she didn't want to live with him, they would definitely be guaranteed a rich and prosperous life.

When Zheng Ke heard Jiang Cheng ask her to go to Hong Kong with him the day after tomorrow, she was confused, but she knew what Jiang Cheng was going to reveal. She wanted to ask what he was going to do in Hong Kong, but she held back.

Because Zheng Ke was afraid to ask further and give her the worst answer directly. In that case, her inner world might collapse. At least Jiang Cheng's words now left her with an imaginary thought.

In the afternoon, Zheng Ke went to the company to explain things. She told her colleagues that she would be away the day after tomorrow and that some things should be handled by everyone.

Zheng Ke wants to ask for leave, and there is no one above her to manage her. She doesn't have to report anything, she just needs to hand over the matter to her colleagues.

It is the weekend now, Jiang Cheng is at home with Zheng Shuang. In the afternoon, Jiang Cheng takes his daughter out for a walk.

At night, Zheng Ke obviously disliked the possibility that Jiang Cheng might have an affair with a married woman. But for some reason, Zheng Ke was very proactive at night, even a little crazy.

Perhaps this is the final madness. Zheng Ke is afraid of learning a result that she cannot face.

Two days later, Jiang Cheng brought Zheng Ke and Zheng Shuang to Hong Kong. They still went through the foreign personnel channel. With Hong Kong ID cards and some documents, Zheng Ke did not need to apply for exit procedures.

This is because the documents Jiang Cheng gave Zheng Ke were all genuine. Zheng Ke was a registered resident in Hong Kong with an ID card and an address. He even had his daughter's identity information. Zheng Ke was full of doubts along the way.

When they arrived at the dock on the Hong Kong side, Jiang Cheng took them to a nearby warehouse and drove out in a luxury car.

Judging from Jiang Cheng's driving experience in Hong Kong, he is very familiar with the roads in Hong Kong. He even introduced some of the conditions in Hong Kong like a tour guide.

This made Zheng Ke feel as if he had met Jiang Cheng for the first time. How many things had he concealed?

When Jiang Cheng arrived at the mountaintop villa in Kowloon District, Zheng Ke was completely stunned when the doorman and the servants in the villa returned to Jiang Cheng.

Shen Li is not at home because her children are at school.

But this did not prevent Jiang Cheng from telling Zheng Ke a story about how a driver in China made his fortune in Hong Kong from a fish ball workshop. Of course, some bizarre and mysterious things were naturally concealed in the process.

The villa was very big, and Jiang Cheng asked the housekeeper to arrange rooms for Zheng Ke and his daughter, Miss Zheng Shuang. If Zheng Ke wanted, she could live here in the future. If not, there were villas in other places. After she chose, she could hire housekeepers, servants, and drivers.

Of course, the premise is that Zheng Ke wants to live in Hong Kong. If you don't want to live here, you can raise any ideas in Shenzhen, China.

Jiang Cheng is no longer a man who drives for his boss and uses his salary to take care of his wife and children in Changcheng first.

"You said Jiangdonglai is yours. There are also hotels and shops in Hong Kong. Several factories in the country are also yours." Zheng Ke asked in disbelief.

"Yes, my last name is Jiang, and I came from the East. So the name of the company is 'Jiang Donglai'. The fact that I have a wife and children in Hong Kong was also an impulse mistake I made back then." Jiang Cheng said frankly.

"Your sister-in-law and your children in Hong Kong don't know about what happened to you in Hong Kong?" Zheng Ke asked again.

Jiang Cheng nodded. If he knew, he wouldn't be so tired. It's possible that Zhou Lingying knowing everything would be a relief for him, but Jiang Cheng was afraid that Zhou Lingying would not accept it.

Moreover, the children in China are not as open-minded as Jiang Fei and Jiang Yue. What if Jiang Zhaozhao knew that their father had two other women and several children outside, and looked down on him as a "hooligan" with improper conduct?

Jiang Cheng no longer had any aspirations for wealth, nor did he seek any messy excitement. What he feared most now was the emotional problems among his family members.

"Master, how do you plan to arrange dinner for the Third Lady and the Young Lady tonight?"

"Let's get a grouper and some shark fin soup. Xiaoshuang, do you want to try some lobster?"

"Dad, I want it."

"Lao Liu, add another serving of lobster, and the rest is up to you."

Jiang Cheng said, Shen Li should be back soon, Jiang Fei, Jiang Yue and Jiang Fan will also be back from school. However, the kitchen will usually arrange what they want to eat according to their tastes. If there is something they want to eat that is easier to prepare, they will give instructions as soon as they come back.

Some dishes that require a long time to prepare, even Jiang Cheng and his friends will not order them at the last minute. The servants, drivers, chefs and housekeepers at home must also be treated with a certain degree of respect and not be unreasonable.

If you really want to make things difficult for the chef, you won't be able to detect if he does something tricky, like spitting or adding something that's imperceptible but disgusting.

Therefore, in wealthy families, there are no unruly young ladies or young masters. If there are, they may be the nouveau riche who have just become rich and are willful and do whatever they want.

Even after several decades, there are basically no scandals of servants being abused in Hong Kong and China. If there is a servant who is not suitable, he would have been fired long ago.

After the dinner was arranged, Zheng Ke felt a little embarrassed because as time went by, she would meet Jiang Cheng's other woman and children besides his original wife.

Jiang Cheng's account of these years at least shows that he did not hook up with married women. It is not difficult to accept that he has wives in Hong Kong and China.

Because in the 1970s, many educated youths who had started families in the countryside returned to the city and married and had sons. Although Jiang Cheng's situation was different from that of the educated youths, he was much better than those educated youths. At least he was not a heartless man who abandoned the countryside after returning to the city.

Moreover, compared with hooking up with a married woman, even if Jiang Cheng was at fault, this situation was a world of difference for Zheng Ke.

"Jiang Cheng, the entire 'Jiangdonglai' is yours. You've cheated me so hard, and now I have to take advantage of your funds all the time." Zheng Ke couldn't help but say as he thought about his situation in the company.

No one is perfect. Zheng Ke's publicity department had no one in charge, and she had the final say on the arrangement of funds. She did not embezzle, but she worked very hard when it came to spending funds.

When taking people to perform and promote, they always follow high standards. Hotels in Shenzhen are directly billed, and Zheng Ke always takes her daughter there to take advantage of it.

Zheng Ke didn't expect that the entire company belonged to her man. She was taking advantage of Jiang Cheng.

"Tomorrow I will take you to open an account in a bank here and give you tens of millions directly. You can spend it however you want after you return to China. You don't have to quit your job in China either." Jiang Cheng said.

Zheng Ke has indeed suffered in the past few years. Her salary is not low, but she does not live a rich life. She always thinks that Jiang Cheng cannot be relied on, and she has to save some money for her daughter.

The reason why Jiang Cheng cannot be relied upon is that he has a wife and six children in Changcheng, so Zheng Ke thinks that Jiang Cheng cannot be relied upon in the future.

Tens of millions, if Zheng Ke was given one million, she wouldn't know how to spend it. Hearing this number, Zheng Ke was not a saint, so she shouldn't say anything like money worship. It was given by her man, so she felt at ease. But she suddenly became rich like this, and she really didn't know how to spend it.
