The attic connects the past and present; I became a tycoon and got rich overnight!

Chapter 49 Don't Underestimate the Identity of the Boss of Lanting

In the lobby, a boy of about sixteen or seventeen was wearing headphones and fiddling with his phone.

He picked up his phone and sent a voice message: "Mom, transfer me some money. I'm out of pocket money."

The mother on the other end replied with a voice message: "I'll transfer 60,000 to you right now."

The boy's face lit up with joy as a transfer message popped up in the chat: "Gentle and Refined Transfers 2000 Yuan to You"

He was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Mom, why is it only 2000?"

My mother's voice message came quickly. I opened it and listened: "[2000 is quite a lot, nine messages!]"

?

You should have hit nine points first, otherwise I would have been disappointed.

The boy looked up after receiving the transfer and saw Gu Tianpei escorting Song Youan downstairs. His eyes lit up and he quickly got up.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Song Youan looked over upon hearing the sound and was delighted to see the boy: "Tutu? Why aren't you at school at this time?"

Jiang Tu is his uncle's son. His uncle's family lives in Ninghua Town, which is near Jinghai City. In order for Jiang Tu to receive a good education, his aunt took him to Jinghai after he took the high school entrance exam. He is currently attending high school in Jinghai.

He usually lives at his aunt's house and takes care of Jiaojiao with his cousin.

Busy with high school studies, Song Youan hadn't seen Jiang Tu for a long time.

"The sports meet ended early today." Jiang Tu scratched his head and grinned, "Sis, I saw you online a while ago."

Song Youan smiled and nodded. She knew it was about her and QG. The matter had been trending on social media for several days, so it was normal to see it.

"What are you doing at the company, kid?" Gu Tianpei asked, looking at him.

Jiang Tu pouted: "I came to see you. I haven't seen you for several days. I need to know if you're still alive."

"You brat, how can you talk like that?" Gu Tianpei slapped his head.

Song Youan smiled and said, "Tutu is just concerned about you."

“Exactly.” Jiang Tu rubbed his head, looked at Song Youan and smiled again: “Sis, it’s been so long since I’ve seen you. I’m free today, so let me treat you to dinner. My mom just transferred some money to me!”

"Keep that little bit of pocket money for yourself. Do you think I'd let you treat me?" Song You'an said, looking at Gu Tianpei. "What about you? How about we have dinner together sometime?"

Gu Tianpei shook his head: "I'll pass. The money issue is resolved, but there are still a bunch of other problems waiting to be dealt with immediately. You guys go eat."

Knowing that time was tight and the task was heavy, Song Youan didn't say much and went out with her younger brother.

At the doorway, Chi Yu stood on the left making a phone call, while Yan Fei stood on the right smoking.

Upon seeing Song You'an emerge, the two simultaneously stopped what they were doing and came to greet her, their gazes falling on the boy beside her.

Although he is quite tall, he still looks very young and unnatural, clearly a high school student.

“This is my younger brother.” Song Youan gently patted Jiang Tu’s head. “Call me brother.” Jiang Tu smiled at Chi Yu, who had a dignified and austere demeanor. “Hello, brother.”

He then looked at Yan Fei and subconsciously swallowed: "Hello... Brother."

Jiang Tu looked down at his nose, thinking to himself, "Which one is my sister's boyfriend? It should be the one in the suit, right? He looks handsome and rich, and he's a good match for my sister."

He didn't mean to say that the guy in shorts was bad. He's a good guy, he just looks fierce and might be abusive.

"Yan Fei, you should go back first," Song Youan said to Yan Fei.

Yan Fei nodded, told Song Youan to message him if she needed anything, then turned and got into his Mercedes and left.

Jiang Tu widened his eyes. You can't judge a book by its cover. This guy in shorts is pretty rich too, driving a Mercedes!
"Brother, let's ride in your car to Lanting and have a meal together."

Chi Yu nodded, took out his car key and pressed it lightly, causing the headlights of a Bentley behind him to flash.

Jiang Tu was surprised again. They were all incredibly capable. No wonder she was my sister!
On the way back, Song Youan sat in the passenger seat and let out a long sigh of relief. She still felt scared when she thought about what happened today. If she had arrived a moment later, or if Brother Chi Yu hadn't found out about the company's problems so quickly, her cousin would definitely have been entangled with loan sharks and wouldn't have been able to get away. Things would have been much more difficult then.

Thinking of this, she thanked Chi Yu again.

Chi Yu turned his head to look at him and said softly, "I told you there's no need to thank me. What the other party is afraid of is offending me..."

The word "you" was not uttered, because Jiang Tu was sitting in the back seat, his eager eyes fixed on the two of them.

Song Youan was still puzzled: "Why?"

Chi Yu paused for a moment before saying, "Let me put it this way, you underestimated the status of the owner of Lanting."

Song You'an frowned and listened attentively as Chi Yu continued to explain: "As one of the top business clubs in Jinghai and even the whole country, Lanting's membership is especially valuable. You should know what kind of people in the business world can become annual members of Lanting Club."

"In Jinghai, whether it's a regular business meeting or a banquet, or a leisure time for business owners, Lanting is always the first choice. When major clients from other places come to Jinghai, the host will also arrange for them to stay at Lanting, as a way of showing that they are valued."

"In addition, the Jinghai City Chamber of Commerce and business associations hold exchange receptions, and even business receptions spontaneously organized by these bosses, and they will basically choose Lanting. These large-scale business activities are crucial to every enterprise group in Jinghai City. They are an important part of their efforts to expand their network and develop their business empire."

At this point, Chi Yu turned to Song You'an and asked, "Do you think it would be a loss for Fu Xiangdong if he offended the owner of Lanting because of a loan and was subsequently blacklisted by Lanting?"

Song Youan finally understood; it turned out that there were many stakes involved.

Chi Yu smiled and said, "Fu Xiangdong is in the import and export trade. He lends money at high interest rates because he was involved in the black market when he started his business in his early years. It's hard to make money in the black market because the country cracks down on prostitution, gambling and drugs. Besides, he's worth over 100 million yuan and doesn't need to take such a big risk. High-interest loans are very profitable and the returns are not small. So, besides him, there are several other big bosses who also do this kind of thing in private."

"But his main wealth comes from his import and export business, so there is no need for him to offend the owner of Lanting by lending money once. That would be a case of losing more than he gained, and would cost him his ticket to participate in high society activities in the future."

Song Youan nodded: "I understand."

The car slowly stopped at the last red light, and Chi Yu continued, "So in Jinghai, many people are very polite to me, but I know that's just for show. But my boss is different. These people have to be respectful to her. No one dares to really offend her. So I'm telling you, don't underestimate the status of the Lanting boss."

"I've learned a lot," Song Youan said sincerely. If it weren't for what happened today, she would have really thought that becoming the owner of Lanting Club would only have the benefit of making her a lot of money.

Unexpectedly, besides money, she also gained the respect and fear of these business tycoons.
