Chapter 39 There are dates and no dates

That night, after Gu Cheng and Quan Baoya separated, he and his cousin walked back to the hotel. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The next day, he personally acted as a tour guide and took his cousin to Seoul for two days until the evening of the 29th.

Then, Gu Cheng rushed to the COSTA café at the entrance of S-M Company in Jiangnan District on time and asked for a private room.

He didn't let his cousin follow.

As a man, he has an obligation to protect his sisters from their potential "enemies".

Just after 6 o'clock, Han Geng's father and son came on time.

When they met, Han Geng didn't know the purpose of Gu Cheng's search for him, and his eyes were full of resentment.

He paid 600,000 yuan, two-thirds of which he borrowed from relatives such as seven or eight aunts and eight aunts -- at that time, his own family only had 200,000 yuan in cash.

This money was used by his father to gamble on the future of his life.

Now I was told that the HOT substitution plan had failed, and "TVXQ" was also postponed indefinitely because of the Internet bubble.

How could Han not be resentful.

Therefore, these days, in front of Zheng Yunhao and other trainee teammates who have passed the selection, he has complained and attacked Gu Cheng in various ways.

It's also a shame that he still knows the severity, and he never said the most critical thing about the behind-the-scenes transaction - if the behind-the-scenes transaction is leaked, Han Geng himself will completely and forever fall out of favor with the company. So he can't confide until he's really desperate.

What Gu Cheng has to do today is to plug this leak again before Han is completely desperate.

"Sit down and have tea. Gu Cheng ordered black tea, and poured two cups of hot tea in front of the Han family's father and son.

The father and son of the Han family looked at it coldly and did not move.

Gu Cheng picked up the cup casually and took a sip: "I've heard about the recent events in the company." I have deep sympathy for what happened to you. After all, we didn't expect this sudden possibility when we were trading. ”

"Don't give me a pretense! Now you're happy!" Han was young and vigorous, and he couldn't help it for a long time, but at this moment, seeing that Gu Cheng was still slow and methodical, he scolded loudly.

It was still Han's father who became old and grabbed his son.

"Young man, don't be impatient, can you listen to me?" Gu Cheng said as he spoke, covering his face with the white napkin provided by the café to prevent Han Geng from splashing his saliva unqualifiedly.

After the aura was completely suppressed, he continued.

"You got the benefit from my withdrawal, and I took you 600,000, which is justified. Now, due to the unexpected force majeure of a third party, the opportunity you should have had in cooperation has been lost. Supposedly, it's none of my business, business is always risky.

But who asked me to be kind, I am willing to return your principal to you today in the spirit of humanity - even if it is the risk of miscarriage of the HOT plan, I took the initiative to bear it. ”

When Gu Cheng said this, Han Geng finally trembled, and his whole person seemed to have Parkinson's.

Gu Cheng took a box from his feet, unlocked it, and pushed it across the table.

"Here is 650,000 yuan, you'd better check it - I'm very generous, I only borrowed you for half a year, and I gave you 8 points of interest, which is a lot. ”

Han Geng's legs were weak and he knelt on the ground.

"Honest ...... Brother Cheng, I, I misunderstood you. I'm blinded by lard, and you don't remember the villain......"

Gu Cheng waved his hand casually, as if to dispel the cigarette in front of him: "Okay, don't talk nonsense." I have the ability to turn 600,000 into 2 million in half a year, so I naturally have the ability to do more big things--do you know how to keep your mouth shut about those things before?"

The figure of 2 million, of course, was made up casually by Gu Cheng. He was afraid that 6 million would scare the pee, and he had never seen the world.

"I know, if I dare to mention a word about you again, I will fight the street for the rest of my life!"

Gu Cheng didn't think much of himself: "Okay, then you can tell me, what are you going to do first thing after getting this money?"

"What are you going to do first?" Han was stunned and couldn't answer.

It was his father who reacted more quickly, knocked his son a violent shudder, and reprimanded: "Of course, I will go back first and repay all the money borrowed from my relatives, and then re-round the reason for borrowing money last time!"

On the road.

Gu Cheng felt that there was no problem, looked at his watch, and got up.

"That's it, let's disperse. I still have to catch a night flight, so I won't be with you to eat. ”

"Brother Cheng, go slowly. ”

……

Gu Cheng and his cousin caught a night flight overnight and flew back to Qiantang.

This time, he was really penniless - to be exact, only a few tens of thousands of pocket money left.

As soon as I returned to China, I had to think of ways to raise money immediately.

On the plane, Gu Cheng remembered that tomorrow would be August 30th, and the summer vacation was about to end. Theoretically, Ms. Pan would have to go back to school — she was already a first-year MBA student.

"Sister, you'll be back to school in two days, right?

"It's not that fast, the first year of research doesn't start on September 1st, it's always a week or two late, it's okay. Pan Jieying comforted her younger brother.

She knows that her brother is now unavailable, and the domestic company has not yet been set up, so how can she bear to pick a child.

Gu Cheng couldn't help but sigh: "Alas, why do I walk so thrilling every step, there are obviously millions of people, and I still push myself to a dead end every time." ”

Pan Jieying glanced at him helplessly: "Who made you so greedy, try to take the biggest step in every step." ”

The steps are big, and it is easy to pull the eggs.

Half a year after coming to this world, everything is still very difficult.

When the plane landed in Qiantang, it was already late. When the siblings got home, it was already the middle of the night, and they tiptoed back to their respective rooms to sleep, without waking up the elders in the family.

The house of more than 70 square meters is really very useless, and it is too crowded for 4 people. Pan Jieying's room is a small study room of only a few square meters, the bookcase is removed and put on the bed, and the sliding door that can only be translated is added outside, which is barely a room.

The next morning, when the siblings woke up, their grandmother Quan Yinglian had already made breakfast, and her aunt Gu Wen had gone to work.

The old man always wakes up very early.

White rice porridge in a large pot, side dishes composed of pickled melon, salted bamboo shoots, and bean curd, as well as handmade fried dumplings.

After Gu Cheng and Pan Jieying finished washing, they sat at the table and ate breakfast.

Grandmother had already eaten, and just sat quietly and watched.

Gu Cheng was a little embarrassed, and persuaded: "Grandma, don't make dumplings in the future, buy quick-frozen dumplings from the supermarket." ”

The grandmother obviously did not listen to the persuasion, and said with a smile: "Idle is also idle." You've finally come back, you can always rest at home for a few more days this time, right? ”

Gu Cheng didn't think much about it, and said casually: "Well, I won't go far away, but I still have to run for loans every day." ”

My grandmother was old and didn't understand the truth, so she muttered it again: "Running for loans?"

Pan Jieying kicked Gu Cheng under the table and gave him a roll of the eyes.

It seems to be saying, "What are you doing with your grandmother?"

Gu Cheng immediately discovered his recklessness, and hurriedly saved the scene in human words: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that the money is spent too much when the goods are purchased, and it's a bit difficult to turn around." Rest assured, it's sure to be a big profit. ”

"Is it a lack of money?" the grandmother frowned, as if remembering some bad past, but finally didn't say anything.

After eating, my grandmother called Pan Jieying to the room alone and asked about something. Then he called Gu Cheng in, and that posture was like an isolated confession.

Gu Cheng picked what he could say, and said everything.

He didn't understand how his grandmother, who had always cared about outside affairs, could suddenly ask these questions in detail.

Fortunately, after listening to the siblings' statement, the grandmother hesitated for a moment, and seemed to have made up her mind. Gu Cheng's doubts were quickly solved.

Grandmother instructed, "Chengcheng, drag out the box in your left hand under the bed." ”

Gu Cheng dragged out the box under the big bed as he said, and then further turned out a small box at the bottom of the box according to the instructions.

"Open. ”

Gu Cheng opened it, and what caught his eyes was a yellowed piece of sulfuric acid paper, with a few lines of handwritten characters on the back, traditional Chinese characters, and a hand-drawn sketch.

"What is this?" he asked his grandmother, confused.

Grandmother looked at him and was silent for a long time before she could gather her thoughts.

"There are some things that I told you more than ten years ago, when your grandfather was alive. However, I didn't say anything about your father, for fear of causing trouble. Originally, I thought about bringing these things into the coffin, but ten days ago, when I was watching the news channel, I saw a piece of news, and I thought it might be providence. ”

"Grandma, you just say it, I can accept it. ”

He had even seen the crossing, and he didn't believe that his grandmother could say anything more incredible.

Grandmother actually shed tears.

"In this case, you call Xiaoying in too. Grandchildren and granddaughters, I can't favor one over the other. You're all grown up. ”

Gu Cheng immediately called his cousin over, and the sister and brother sat down around the old grandmother.

"Over the years, our family has always said to the outside world, I was from Beiyi Country when I was a child, right? Chengcheng, I know that your history class is very good, how did you draw the border between Milu and Milu when they drew the border on the peninsula?"

Gu Cheng and Pan Jieying glanced at each other, feeling that this question was too simple, but they really couldn't understand why their grandmother's thinking was so jumpy.

"The 38th parallel, everyone knows this. ”

"Then you take a map and take a look, in fact, the current national border between the north and south is indeed the 38th parallel?"

Pan Jieying got up and brought a map of the peninsula - because her grandmother was a Yi person, the map of China and the map of the peninsula were collected at home.

Gu Cheng looked at it himself and found that the actual ceasefire line was indeed not the standard 38th parallel:

On the eastern shore of the peninsula, in the mountainous area of Mount Kumgang, the boundary line turned a little to the north, and a part of the land that was theoretically supposed to belong to the Beiyi country was included in the Dongyi country.

On the west bank of the peninsula, at the mouth of the Han River, the boundary line turned a little to the south, and a part of the land that theoretically belonged to Dongyi was assigned to Yi.

However, Gu Cheng quickly found a reasonable explanation and didn't think it was a big deal:

"This ...... I know that the original line of 38th parallel was drawn by the Yalta Conference during the negotiations between the Mi and Lucian people. Later, the actual demarcation line was renegotiated in Panmunjom in 53, and after a few years of fighting, the boundary will of course change. ”

Grandmother nodded, pointing to the bulge on the map where the ceasefire line on the west bank of the peninsula turned south.

"Later, this place that was taken away by the north through the war was Kaesong. In 1950, Kaesong was still Dongyi land, and I was a 12-year-old child. That year, my father went to Kaesong to do business and took me from his hometown in Seoul with him......"

Gu Cheng and Pan Jieying, sisters and brothers, listened quietly, but their eyes widened more and more.
