Chapter 150 Gu Jia wants to borrow money from Yuan Xudong
Arriving at the destination, he took the flower basket from Sun Jianhong, and Yuan Xudong walked into Gu Jia's dessert house. The dessert house is small in size and the decoration is simple and warm. Looking around, he did not find Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin, only Gu Jia was alone. Busily preparing all kinds of imported mineral water, as well as her best fruit cake.

Putting down the flower basket, Yuan Xudong walked up to Gu Jia and said with a smile:
"Gu Jia, where are Nini and Xiaoqin?"

Hearing Yuan Xudong's voice, Gu Jia looked up at him and smiled:

"Manni and Xiaoqin don't want to come here, they think tasting water would be too boring, and they don't want to contact the wives in the wives' circle!"

Glancing at more than a dozen types of imported mineral water in different water glasses, Yuan Xudong looked at the busy Gu Jia and said with a smile:
"Your circle of wives is boring enough. You have to drink some imported water. Are you tired?"

"Tired!"

After playing with the mineral water, Gu Jia continued to prepare the fruit cake and said:
"Today is Mrs. Wang's host, and the water tasting meeting is the theme I will help her think about. Let her teach those wives a good lesson. Mrs. Wang, although she is not highly educated, she is still very good to me. She helped Ziyan get into the top kindergarten. She also helped Ziyan arrange a summer camp jointly organized by the kindergarten and abroad. She wanted to show off in the wife circle. I definitely wanted to help her. This is called reciprocity. !"

Hearing what Gu Jia said about reciprocity, Yuan Xudong said half-jokingly and half-seriously:

"Gu Jia, you said that Mrs. Wang treats you pretty well, but you want to reciprocate courtesy, what about me, am I not good to you?"

Hearing Yuan Xudong's ambiguous words, Gu Jia paused slightly in fiddling with the cake, and then returned to normal, with a concealed smile on her face and said:
"Mr. Yuan, you are also very kind to me, but my ability is limited, so I really can't help you much!"

Nodding slightly, Yuan Xudong looked at Gu Jia who was dodging his eyes and said directly:

"Gu Jia, tell me, what do you want me to do? Nini and Xiaoqin are unwilling to participate in such a boring water tasting meeting. If you hadn't asked, they would definitely not have let me come over. !"

Hearing Yuan Xudong point out her little thoughts directly, Gu Jia said with a little embarrassment:
"Mr. Yuan, can I borrow 300 million from you?"

"Borrow 300 million?"

Unexpectedly, Gu Jia would borrow money from him, Yuan Xudong looked at her in surprise and said:

"Does Xu Huanshan in your family have no money? Even if he has no money, Nini and Xiaoqin also have a lot of private money. Didn't you tell them that you want to borrow money?"

Shaking her head slightly, Gu Jia looked at Yuan Xudong and explained:
"Our family's fireworks company needs to increase its production lines, and all the money it earns will be reinvested in it. Besides, I don't want to ask Xu Huanshan for money. As for Manni and Xiaoqin, you gave them their money. I If I ask them to borrow money, I should inform you!"

Nodding slightly, Yuan Xudong looked at Gu Jia and said with a smile:
"It's rare for you to ask me to borrow money in person. Tell me, what do you want to borrow 300 million for? Although the money is not much, it can't just be loaned to you in such a vague way. Do you think it makes sense?"

"Yes, I will definitely make it clear to you!"

Seeing that Yuan Xudong was willing to lend her money, Gu Jia looked overjoyed. While thinking about the wife circle gathering yesterday afternoon, she explained to Yuan Xudong the reason why she wanted to borrow 300 million.

Yesterday afternoon, she participated in the afternoon tea event in the wife's circle as usual. Mrs. Li, whose family assets exceeded tens of billions, casually said while drinking black tea:

"As soon as I drank this tea, I remembered that my family still has a tea factory in Xiangxi, but I want to sell it recently!"

"is it?"

Mrs. Zhou glanced at Mrs. Li and said with a smile:
"Haven't heard you say that before?"

Mrs. Li took a sip of black tea and explained intentionally or unintentionally:

"It's not a big business. It's just doing it here and there. Our tea garden has production lines and organic labels, but the output is a bit small. Does anyone want to take over?"

After Mrs. Li finished speaking, Mrs. Zhou couldn't wait to say:
"I have a friend who wants to start a tea business. You keep it for me. I will ask him later. If the price is right, he will definitely be willing to take over your tea garden. By the way, do you have a name for your tea garden?"

"Of course it has a name!"

After giving Mrs. Zhou a blank look, Mrs. Li held the black tea and said reservedly:
"Although it is not a big business, the company has everything that the company should have, and it also has its own official website. You can search the Li Family Tea Garden in Xiangxi on the Internet. It contains detailed information about our tea garden. Ask your friends to look at the official website first. Inappropriate, so as not to waste each other's time!"

Hearing the conversation between Mrs. Li and Mrs. Zhou, Gu Jia immediately searched the Li family tea garden in Xiangxi with her mobile phone. After the party was over, she found Mrs. Li alone and said with a smile:

"Mrs. Li, I have learned about your tea factory. If you really want to consider transferring it, can you transfer it to me?"

After glancing at Gu Jia, Mrs. Li smiled and said:
"It doesn't matter who you transfer it to. The transfer fee is 300 million. Can you get it?"

Shaking her head slightly, Gu Jia looked at Mrs. Li and discussed:
"I may really not be able to pay that much money at once. Otherwise, I will pay you the money in three years, and give you 20.00% of the company's profits every year, which will be regarded as interest. What do you think?"

Shaking her head slightly, Mrs. Li looked at Gu Jia and refused:
"I still find it troublesome. I want to get the money back. If you have no money, I will leave it to Mrs. Zhou's friends. Of course, you are also in our wife's circle. If the fat and water don't flow to outsiders, I will give it to you." Two days to raise this money, can you raise it?"

"Okay, then thank Mrs. Li, I will definitely be able to raise this money!"

"hope so!"

Listening to Gu Jia's explanation of the ins and outs of the matter, Yuan Xudong smiled. Mrs. Li and Mrs. Zhou were obviously setting a trap for Gu Jia. It may be that Mrs. Wang left Gu Jia with the idea that rich people follow the principle of equal value exchange. The rules of the game, or she felt that it was impossible for Mrs. Li, whose family assets exceeded tens of billions, to deceive her. In short, Gu Jia did not realize that there was anything wrong, and Yuan Xudong would not kindly remind her that unless he was desperate, how could he How about taking Gu Jia into his bag?

Thinking of this, he looked at Gu Jia and teased:
"Gu Jia, tell Mrs. Li that you will definitely be able to raise a transfer fee of 300 million yuan. If I don't want to lend you money, and I won't allow Nini and Xiaoqin to lend you money, what can you do?"

After all, seeing Gu Jia's expression was slightly stunned, Yuan Xudong walked up to her, leaned into her ear and whispered jokingly:
"Gu Jia, is it because I was too kind to you and responded to every request, but you took it for granted and never thought that I would reject you?"

Startled by Yuan Xudong's sudden intimacy, Gu Jia quickly took two steps back and said in a little panic:

"Mr. Yuan, forget it if you don't want to, I'll think of other ways!"

"What can you think of? In such a short time, what else can you do besides asking Xu Huanshan for money?"

After a slight pause, Yuan Xudong looked at Gu Jia curiously and said:
"Gu Jia, why are you unwilling to ask Xu Huanshan for money?"

"It's nothing. Even if I asked for it, he didn't give me 300 million. I'm sorry to bother you today. Mrs. Wang is coming. If you have something to do, go first!"

Seeing that Gu Jia wanted to leave early by herself, Yuan Xudong joked with a smile:
"Why, if you don't want to lend you money, you have to close the door to see off customers?"

Gazing at Yuan Xudong, Gu Jia couldn't help being annoyed and said:

"Mr. Yuan, you know that's not what I mean. If you want to stay, you can stay. Those ladies are very boring. I'm afraid you will feel uncomfortable!"

"Are you caring about me?"

Before Gu Jia could respond, Yuan Xudong glanced at the strawberry cake on the table and said with a smile:
"I want to eat strawberries, how about I lend you 100 million if you feed me a strawberry?"

Hearing Yuan Xudong's words to tease her, Gu Jia looked annoyed and said:

"Mr. Yuan, do you mean to humiliate me like this?"

"Humiliated you?"

Yuan Xudong looked at Gu Jia and said with a smile:

"Gu Jia, if you can't bear this grievance, how will you do business in the future? I didn't ask you anything, I just fed a few strawberries. How can I humiliate you?"

Seeing Yuan Xudong looking at the strawberry cake on the table, Gu Jia blushed and said:

"Are you really just eating a few strawberries?"

"if not?"

"All right!"

After hesitating for a while, Gu Jia directly dug a strawberry with a spoon and handed it to Yuan Xudong's mouth, saying:

"you eat!"

Glancing at the strawberries covered in cream, Yuan Xudong slightly shook his head and refused:
"You feed me with your hands, and I will lend you 100 million yuan for a strawberry, without interest, otherwise there will be no negotiation!"

Without waiting for Gu Jia to refuse or agree, Yuan Xudong spoke aggressively:

"Gu Jia, you shouldn't be so squeamish, are you? Borrow a strawberry for 100 million, even a fool is willing to feed me!"

"You are the fool, one million strawberries, right?"

Putting down the spoon, Gu Jia picked up a strawberry and brought it to Yuan Xudong's mouth, saying:
"100 million!"

When Yuan Xudong finished eating properly, Gu Jia felt a little relieved, and she directly picked up the second strawberry and brought it to Yuan Xudong's mouth and said:
"200 million!"

When Yuan Xudong finished eating properly again, Gu Jia felt completely relaxed. She picked up the third strawberry and brought it to Yuan Xudong's mouth with a smile:

"300 million!"

Seeing Gu Jia with a relaxed face, Yuan Xudong smiled, and instead of eating the strawberry directly, he licked off the cream on Gu Jia's finger holding the strawberry, and saw Gu Jia standing there with a flushed face. There, Yuan Xudong deliberately ate the last strawberry slowly. Before he finished eating, a female voice laughed at the door:
"Gu Jia, Mr. Yuan, did I come at the wrong time?"

Hearing Mrs. Wang's teasing, Gu Jia quickly withdrew her right hand and explained with half a strawberry:
"Mrs. Wang, don't get me wrong. How about I just let Mr. Yuan taste the strawberry cake I made?"

Yuan Xudong turned slightly, looked at Mrs. Wang who was walking into the dessert room and said with a smile:

"Mrs. Wang, Gu Jia's strawberry cake is not bad, do you want to try it?"

"No, I don't like eating strawberries!"

Walking to Gu Jia's side, Mrs. Wang touched her shoulder and teased her in a low voice:

"Gu Jia, you can do it. Mr. Yuan is young and strong. He must be good at playing golf. Have you tried it?"

"Mrs. Wang, what are you talking about?"

Throwing the remaining half of the strawberry into the trash can, Gu Jia pointed to more than a dozen kinds of imported mineral water on the table and changed the subject:
"Mrs. Wang, these are imported mineral water from different countries. Have you memorized the information I gave you?"

"Be quiet!"

After glancing at Yuan Xudong, Mrs. Wang leaned into Gu Jia's ear and smiled:

"Don't worry, if you help me like this, I will definitely keep it a secret for you, Mrs. Yuan!"

Hearing what Mrs. Wang said, Gu Jia quickly explained:

"Mrs. Wang, don't get me wrong, I really have nothing to do with Mr. Yuan!"

Mrs. Wang blinked and said with a smile:

"I know you're fine!"

Knowing that the explanation was unreasonable, Gu Jia walked aside with the mentality of the clearer, and began to arrange a water tasting party. Time passed, and other ladies came one after another. When everyone arrived, everyone ranked according to family wealth and seniority. As the referee, Gu Jia followed Zhanguang and sat on his left, while Mrs. Wang, who was the host, sat on his right and talked eloquently:
"These waters are the top imported waters that I have collected from all over the world. They are waters with different TDS and different pH levels. How do you taste it?"

Seeing Mrs. Wang put on airs, Mrs. Yu on the side cheered and said:

"Mrs. Wang, I know the pH, what is TDS?"

Hearing Mrs. Yu's question, Mrs. Wang couldn't wait to say:
"TDS is the dissolved substance in water. These are the best imported water, which is good for your health. You all have a taste and express your opinions!"

After Mrs. Wang finished speaking, Yuan Xudong was the first to take a sip from the water glass, and then commented:
"It's a bit sweet, maybe it's because I just ate strawberries, it affects the taste more, you all have a taste, I won't comment!"

Seeing Yuan Xudong being so cunning, Mrs. Yu was the second to take a sip from the water glass, and then commented:
"It's a bit bitter, maybe it's because I just drank coffee, it affects the taste more!"

Then Mrs. Li, Mrs. Zhou, and Mrs. Wu commented in turn:
"It's a bit sour, maybe it's because I just ate oranges, it affects the taste more!"

"It's a bit spicy, maybe it's because I just ate hot pot, it affects the taste more!"

"It's a bit salty, maybe it's because I just ate bacon, it affects the taste more!"

The sweet, bitter, spicy and salty are all ready, Mrs. Wang took a look at the soil turtles around, then picked up the water glass and took two sips to show off:
"Water flows through different rocks and soils, and its taste is different. High TDS water is saltier, thicker and rougher. In theory, overacid water will appear refreshing, but tooth enamel will be after a pH of 5.5. Degradation, so too acid will appear rough, low TDS water”

While drinking the colorless and tasteless mineral water, Yuan Xudong watched Mrs. Wang reciting popular science materials according to the script. He glanced at the wives who seemed to be listening attentively, but were actually drowsy, and then looked at Gu Jia beside him. Whispering in her ear, he whispered:
"Gu Jia, you still owe me half a strawberry!"
