Chapter 478 Account
How could you have been filmed?

After watching the video, Chen Yanyin frowned. High-end goods are afraid of being exposed, and many customers don't like items that are exposed.

Comrade Xiao Huo specifically gave instructions.

"Second Aunt, please wait a moment."

Chen Yanyin took out her phone and called Xie Yun: "Xie Yun, what's going on? Didn't I tell you not to film this? Why are you letting it be broadcast live?"

"Fourth Sister, no one's taking pictures." Xie Yun was stunned.

Chen Yanyin said irritably, "How could there not be? There are a lot of clips of live streams on Douyin now. You can find them with a simple search on Douyin."

Xie Yun hurriedly added, "Fourth Sister, I really didn't let anyone take pictures. When you just left, a female anchor came, but I stopped her from taking pictures."

"They left for a while and then came back, but we didn't let them take pictures."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yanyin quickly understood: "Search for Douyin yourself, and also, pull up the store's surveillance footage and send me a copy."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yanyin reopened Douyin and watched several videos in a row, her brows furrowed. Although the streamer didn't say it explicitly, the implication was clear.

They're part of the "National Treasure Gang," selling counterfeit goods!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but grit his teeth: "Dad, make a call and have her account blocked."

Chen Fan smirked: "Girl, how old are you? A PhD in economics, and you can't beat a little internet celebrity? You'll have to handle this yourself."

Chen Yanyin immediately went over and hugged her father from behind, saying coquettishly, "Dad, your daughter was bullied, don't you feel sorry for her?"

"It breaks my heart!"

Chen Fan raised an eyebrow slightly and teased, "But daughter, you make me handle such a small matter? Your father's face is worthless."

Seeing that his daughter was about to speak, Chen Fan added, "I will call your second brother and tell him not to get involved. You have to handle this yourself. Just think of it as having something to do."

"Are you so bored that you're making a fool of your own daughter?" Chen Yanyin said irritably.

Chen Fan joked, "That's one way to understand it."

"Fine, I'll handle it myself then." Chen Yanyin scratched her head and stormed off.

Seeing this, Xu Jinqiu glared at her husband: "You're really something. You could have solved it with just one phone call, but you had to make things difficult for Lao Si."

Zeng Ali laughed and said, "I think it's great. This girl is too lazy. Let's not let her use the family's resources and let her go out and compete with others."

"Once we start fighting and our tempers flare up, we might just be able to get things done."

“That’s exactly right,” Chen Fan nodded.

They know their own children better than anyone else. Even the most generous third child has a temper and won't be taken advantage of for no reason.

The fourth one is the same; laziness is just a facade, her true nature is stubbornness. If someone provokes her, once her stubborn temper flares up, she will definitely seek revenge.

“You scheme against the child…” Zhao Yuanyuan looked at her husband and elder sister with disdain.

Zeng Ali immediately glared at her: "You're lazy yourself, and you teach your child to be lazy too. What kind of mother are you? Others hope their sons will become dragons, but you hope your daughter will become a worm."

Zhao Yuanyuan didn't take it to heart. Her daughter was lazy, so let her be lazy. She herself had been lazy her whole life, and she lived a better life than anyone else.

They're in their fifties, and you still have to spoil them.

Who else gets this kind of treatment?

My daughter was born to enjoy a life of luxury. Everyone in the family, from top to bottom, spoils her. She has no ambition and is perfectly content to be idle.

It's better than those arrogant and troublesome rich kids who won't cause trouble for their families.

While they were talking about the fourth son, Chen Lao Er rushed home in a panic: "Dad, what happened? Why did you suddenly call me back?"

"There's something I need you to do."

Chen Fan took out a cigarette, tossed one to his son, and lit one for himself: "You have two years to plan this."

"The focus is mainly on the medical field."

"For companies producing ventilators, protective suits, goggles, and masks, we should acquire them as much as possible; for those that cannot be acquired, we should build our own factories."

"Once it's built, stockpile it like crazy."

Chen Lao Er, puffing on his cigarette, stared wide-eyed: "Dad, what are you doing? Are you waging a biological war? If you make a scene, the higher-ups will question you."

"Is that not allowed?" Chen Fan narrowed his eyes.

Chen Lao Er quickly shook his head: "Who would dare tell you it can't be done? But Dad, could you give me some information so I can have a better idea?"

Chen Fan took a deep drag on his cigarette: "I'll only say what I can say."

“Dare to ask another question, and I’ll punch you. I got some information from a very shady source: the Americans are developing a vaccine for the virus.” “Are the Americans crazy?” Chen Lao Er gritted his teeth.

Chen Fan nodded and said, "Everyone knows the specifics, and I don't have any accurate sources either. Anyway, I'll leave the matter to you, and don't ask about anything else."

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Old Chen nodded.

Chen Fan added, "The resort villa area near Mentougou Wildlife Park has been renovated to create an independent ecosystem."

"There also needs to be an isolation area."

“If something bad happens, our whole family will move in, especially your grandparents and maternal grandparents. They are all getting old and can’t take any more trouble.”

Hearing the seriousness of his father's words, Chen Lao Er did not dare to hesitate: "I will have someone design it tomorrow."

Chen Fan nodded slightly, took another puff of his cigarette, and then changed the subject: "You must have made a lot of money in the gold futures market in the last three years, right?"

"It's alright," Chen Lao Er shook his head slightly.

I made a fortune shorting gold in 2014. After that, the gold market recovered and slowly rose from $1046 per ounce, only reaching $1300 in three years.

Of course, what Chen Lao Er said was just an average comparison, referring to the gains from sharp drops and surges. The actual returns were still quite considerable.

In addition to futures, they also made large-scale purchases of gold in 2014. Now, three years later, if they were to sell these gold purchases, the returns would be substantial.

"You kid, be content. Price surges and crashes are all about timing. Based on the current trend, gold prices will rise even more. Buy another batch of gold."

Chen Fan took a drag of his cigarette and said, "Also, sell all the land that Tianhe Agricultural Group owns in Wu Ermao's house. Don't keep a single acre."

Are you worried that a fight might break out?

Chen Lao Er studies economics and is very familiar with the situation in Russia and Ukraine. It is unlikely that a war will break out in the short term, but the situation is very tense, and such a possibility cannot be ruled out.

"Who knows?" Chen Fan shrugged.

He took another drag of his cigarette and slowly exhaled the smoke: "A wise man does not stand under a crumbling wall. Tianhe Agricultural Group owns 30 hectares of land in Wu Ermao's village."

"Before a fight breaks out, let's quickly find a sucker."

Upon hearing this, Chen Lao Er's lips twitched slightly. If the customer heard this, he would probably be furious. "I'm spending money, and you're treating me like a sucker?"
However, this matter should indeed be handled as soon as possible.

If the conflict escalates later and the situation becomes clearer, then any potential buyers will avoid selling the product altogether.

After thinking it over for a while, Chen Lao Er decided to go on a business trip to Hong Kong to oversee the matter, as selling 30 hectares of land was no small business.

The next day, Chen Lao Er set off with Ye Ling.

Meanwhile, Chen Yanyin was also busy, scrolling through videos on her phone, occasionally revealing a gritted-teeth expression.

The live stream and video clips by a popular influencer with eight million followers have stirred up a lot of controversy. At least online, "Chen Laosi Stone Shop" has been labeled a black market shop.

Chen Yanyin also saw another video, a clip from Qiu Xiaoqiu's live-streaming sales last night, in which she mentioned her own store quite a bit.

Although he didn't explicitly say he was selling counterfeit goods, his words implied that, and the chat in the live stream was full of mockery of "Chen Laosi's Stone Shop".

"You're stepping on my shop to sell your goods?"

"You want to play like this, huh? Fine, today I'll show you that just because you have a camera and a few fans doesn't mean you can do whatever you want."

"If you dare to step on me, you must take responsibility."

After a cold laugh, Chen Yanyin took the nanny's phone and called Xiao Huo first, explaining the situation: "Brother Huo, send me a WeChat message later, requesting a refund."

Xiao Huo: "No need, right? That safety buckle is of such good quality, your sister-in-law will definitely like it."

Chen Yanyin: "It's okay, I'll find you another one. The quality will definitely be no worse than this one. Just come over later, and you can pay me back later."

Xiao Huo: "Do you have other plans?"

Chen Yanyin nodded and said, "They secretly filmed me, spread rumors, and ruined my business. They should definitely make me pay for this loss. I'll go and report it to the police later."

Xiao Huo laughed and said, "Okay, just like your second brother."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yanyin called other customers, asking them to refund all their money and to replace the items they wanted with something else.

There's no shortage of high-quality gadgets at home.

After dealing with all that, Chen Yanyin didn't use her family's resources; instead, she went directly to the largest law firm in Beijing to handle the litigation.

After finishing all that, Chen Yanyin raised the corners of her mouth and said, "You dare to rip me off? I'll make you pay until you're bankrupt."

Little did the lawyer know, he was also taken aback. Who was this girl? Her clients were all heirs to Hong Kong's top wealthy families.

Can she be simple?
