Yan Peng cried, crying very sadly, without hiding it at all, as if he wanted to cry out all the sadness in his heart.
For a grown man to cry so bitterly in front of outsiders is undoubtedly extremely sad.
"In the end what happened?"
Zhou Chen really couldn't imagine what kind of thing would push Yan Peng to this point. The two families had already been in such trouble, and it could be said that they had no contact with each other for the rest of their lives. Yan Peng could find him again.
One can imagine what kind of determination he had.
Yan Peng cried for a long time before slowly calming down and telling Zhou Chen what happened.
After the incident was exposed online, their family of three moved back to the villa and lived with their parents.
It was fine in the beginning. Tian Yulan went along with everything, coaxing the couple and gradually letting them down. Then Yan's father tried to let Tian Yulan manage his own factory in order to find a successor to the family business.
Tian Yulan studied very seriously and had a very good attitude, which made Yan's father more reassured and slowly began to delegate power, allowing Tian Yulan to manage the factory alone.
After Tian Yulan actually took charge of the factory, he was still very humble at the beginning, and he beat down the management and workers of the factory.
But slowly, her ambitions began to grow, and she wanted to expand her factory. In order to make more money, she began to take orders on a large scale, and even thought about expanding the production line.
It has to be said that Tian Yulan's ability to coax people is really top-notch. She was so coaxed that Yan's father agreed to the plan. He decided to expand the factory as Tian Yulan said and even applied for a mortgage loan from the bank.
After the production line was expanded, Tian Yulan quickly took orders and recruited workers. But just when she was done with all this and was ready to start working hard, the epidemic hit.
As soon as the epidemic hit, the factory stopped working and could not enter production, so it naturally could not create profits. But the problem is that the factory has signed contracts with many companies and must ship goods when the time comes. If it is unable to ship, it will have to bear compensation.
Tian Yulan has great ambitions. In order to expand her business, she signed many orders and took out many loans from banks.
Seeing that the deadline was running out and the factory could not start operation, the Yan family had no choice but to use their family assets to pay off the debt, and to check how much money was left in the factory's accounts to see if they could use it.
But something happened that the Yan family couldn't believe. After checking the accounts, they discovered that there was a big problem with the company's accounts, and a lot of money disappeared out of thin air.
After questioning Tian Yulan, I found out that the money that disappeared from the factory was secretly invested by Tian Yulan, and he bought stocks. After a few months, he lost everything.
The reason why Tian Yulan bought stocks was also influenced by Yan Peng, because Yan Peng bought Bitcoin with Zhou Chen and believed Zhou Chen's words. He sold them all at the end of June and made a lot of money.
Tian Yulan was deeply affected by this method of making money quickly. After discovering that Bitcoin was falling, she set her sights on stocks. While managing a factory, she followed a group of stock brokers to play stocks.
In the end, it led to this series of things happening.
During the epidemic, all companies are having a hard time. Many companies that cooperate with the factory have no regard for their feelings at this time. If the factory cannot deliver the goods, it will have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages after the expiration. With the contract in hand, the factory has no
Any way.
To make matters worse, the bank learned that there was a problem with the factory and began to collect debts.
In order to be able to ship goods in time, Tian Yulan made a crazy move. She even took risks, forced workers to start work, and promised double wages, which actually allowed many workers to come back to work despite the epidemic.
But the factory had only been open for a few days when someone reported it. Under this policy of compulsory prohibition of operations, the Yan family's factory even opened operations at the risk of violating the rules. Of course, the district and city leaders could not let them go.
As a result, the factory was closed down and faced severe punishment. For the Yan family, this was like a bolt from the blue.
During this period, the entire Yan family was in turmoil. Yan's father, Yan's mother, and Tian Yulan had many big quarrels. Faced with the questioning and dissatisfaction of her parents-in-law, Tian Yulan didn't know how to reflect at all. Instead, she thought she was right and directly punished Yan's father.
He was so angry that he was admitted to the hospital.
Yan's father was admitted to the hospital, and Yan's mother could not bear the burden. Tian Yulan was like crazy and refused to admit her mistake. There was no other way, so Yan Peng could only stand up.
It's just that Yan Peng has always been lazy and can't take care of things at all. He can't borrow money anywhere, so he can only sell his property in the hope of repaying the debt. But now during the epidemic, some things can't be sold at all. Even if they can be sold,
The price is also shockingly low, and it won't help much with their debts at all.
In a short period of time, Yan Peng endured hardships that he had not endured for more than thirty years. He saw what it means to be warm and cold in human relationships, and his entire being was devastated and miserable.
Yan Peng, who was desperate, thought of his former friend Zhou Chen. Although the two families had no contact with each other, he had also heard that Zhou Chen and his wife were doing well in their careers, so he suffered for a long time and finally lowered his face and went to find Zhou Chen.
Chen.
After Zhou Chen listened to Yan Peng's narration, he was also stunned. The Yan family's assets are not weak, but Tian Yulan has made them like this in such a short time? Is this woman a Sangmen star? Is she so sharp?
"How much do you want to borrow?"
"five million."
Zhou Chen suddenly frowned. Five million is not a small amount. If he hadn't made a lot of money writing novels in the past six months, he really wouldn't be able to afford so much money. Even now, his total assets are only
Less than 20 million, five million is really a lot for him.
"Brother, I know this is a lot of money, but now I really have no choice. If we don't repay the debt, we will be legally responsible. Don't worry, this money will be available as long as our house is sold.
Back to you."
The Yan family actually still has some real estate, but in the current situation, it is impossible to sell it in the short term. Moreover, their family still owes money to the bank and cannot get a loan. Even if they mortgage the real estate, it cannot be approved.
Otherwise, he would not have been forced into a desperate situation.
"Brother, don't worry, I won't lend you this money in vain. It's 20% interest, three months. If you give me three months, I will definitely pay it back to you."
Of course Zhou Chen would not agree wholeheartedly, but was full of worries. Yan Peng's words were okay, but he really had no trust in Tian Yulan at all. Who knows if the money would be wasted if he lent it out.
"Yan Peng, this is not a trivial matter. Five million is a lot of money for our family. I need to discuss it with Nan Li."
Yan Peng looked very humble: "It should, it should."
Yan Peng's behavior made Zhou Chen feel uncomfortable. He said, "I will give you an answer tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you, brother."
Yan Peng rubbed his hands. Now he no longer cares about his face. He is willing to do anything as long as it can save the family from crisis.
Yan Peng returned home exhausted and saw Tian Yulan sitting in the living room. Quan pretended not to see her and prepared to go back to the room.
The current house still belongs to their family, but it has been mortgaged to the bank. If the loan cannot be repaid in time, their villa will be forcibly expropriated by the bank.
In order to keep the little remaining property, Yan Peng had to borrow money from Zhou Chen.
"Where have you been?"
When Tian Yulan saw Yan Peng coming back, she immediately asked, "Did you go to borrow money again?"
Yan Peng looked at her coldly: "If I don't borrow money, where else can I go?"
Tian Yulan: "Have you borrowed the money for so long? How about selling the factory as I said. Not only can you pay off all the foreign debts, but you can also have a balance."
"Tian Yulan, shut up."
Yan Peng pointed at Tian Yulan angrily and yelled: "The factory is my parents' lifelong effort. There is no way I can sell it, and I can borrow the money tomorrow."
Although their factory cannot operate now, if the factory's machinery, real estate, orders, etc. are sold, it will definitely cost a lot of money.
But Yan Peng never thought about doing this, because this was his parents' lifelong efforts. Even in this desperate situation, he never thought about selling the factory.
Hearing Yan Peng say that he could borrow money, Tian Yulan showed an expression of disbelief and looked at Yan Peng with suspicion, but suddenly seemed to remember something.
"You're not going to borrow money from Nan Li and Xia Junshan, are you?"
Of course Yan Peng would not admit it. He was about to leave, but Tian Yulan rushed over and stopped him.
"Tell me, did you borrow money from them?"
"It has nothing to do with you, go away."
Yan Peng pushed Tian Yulan away, but Tian Yulan grabbed his clothes and shouted angrily: "Yan Peng, who asked you to borrow money from them? Even if I die, I will not borrow money from them.
Money, you useless waste, you actually borrowed money from them, you..."
"Snapped!"
Yan Peng raised his hand and slapped Tian Yulan to the ground, but Yan Peng showed no mercy.
"Tian Yulan, you are a lunatic. If you want to die, go die on your own. Don't get involved with my parents and Ziyou. I have really endured you to the limit. If it weren't for Ziyou's sake, I would have let you go.
Get out of here, you caused the trouble yourself, and your whole family suffers with you, but you still don't know what to do or regret."
Tian Yulan was lying on the ground, the fingerprints on her face were clearly visible, but she didn't pay attention at all. Instead, she yelled at Yan Peng.
"What do you mean I caused the trouble myself? Why didn't you tell me when I was making money to expand the factory? Now that I'm losing money, it's all my fault. How can you blame me? It was a natural disaster, not caused by manpower at all. Why do you blame me?"
Besides, if you weren’t useless, would your father have let me manage the factory? Why am I working so hard, and not for you, so what qualifications do you have to criticize me and hit me? "
Yan Peng was shaking with anger and pointed at Tian Yulan.
"You really have the nerve to say it out loud, are you doing it for us? You just want to prove that you are better than Nan Li and the others. Why do you think we blame you? You secretly used the factory's money to buy stocks, and forced the start of work regardless of the epidemic.
If something goes wrong, you still refuse to admit your fault, don't repent, and put all the blame on others, how dare you say that?"
"Yan Peng, how dare you scold me."
"What's wrong with me scolding you? I still want to hit you. I have really indulged you too much these years, so I have developed such a ungrateful and self-righteous character like yours. Tian Yulan, I really have had enough of you.
"
Tian Yulan jumped up and cursed: "I've had enough of you, Yan Peng, you are just a waste, a waste that has accomplished nothing, what qualifications do you have to teach me? If it weren't for Ziyou, I would have never wanted to live with you.
"
"I don't want to be with you anymore, Tian Yulan, please listen to me, divorce, I want to divorce you."
Tian Yulan was not afraid at all: "Divorce, fine, just leave, but Ziyou will be mine."
"You're dreaming."
Yan Peng pointed at Tian Yulan and yelled: "I won't let Ziyou be with a woman like you, get out of here, get out of here now."
Tian Yulan didn't care about him at all, but quickly rushed to Yan Ziyou's room and pulled out Yan Ziyou who was hiding in the room and covering his ears.
"Ziyou, let's go, follow mom, and get out of here."
But Yan Ziyou didn't want to go with her at all, and struggled hard, "I won't leave, I won't go with you, I want to be with my father and grandparents."
Tian Yulan, who was already in a rage, was like a bolt from the blue when she heard this, but then she pulled Yan Ziyou harder.
"You are the flesh that fell from my body, you can only follow me, hurry up, follow me."
After all, Yan Ziyou was just a child, so how could he have pulled Tian Yulan away, and was just pulled out of the room by Tian Yulan so forcefully.
But at this time, Yan Peng rushed over, struggled to break away Tian Yulan's hand from Yan Ziyou, then pushed Tian Yulan away, pointed at her and cursed.
"Tian Yulan, you crazy woman, you can even attack your own son, you are really crazy, get out of here, get out of here."
After saying that, he ignored Tian Yulan's struggle and carried Tian Yulan out of the villa.
"dad."
Listening to Tian Yulan yelling and cursing outside, Yan Ziyou hugged Yan Peng hard and cried loudly.
"Dad, I don't want to be with her, I don't want to be with her, let her go, let her go, I don't want her anymore."
"Don't be afraid, Ziyou, don't be afraid, dad will protect you and won't let her hurt you again, never again."
Yan Peng hugged his son tightly and shed tears of regret. Tian Yulan was the culprit who caused all this, but he was also an accomplice. If it hadn't been for his blind connivance, Tian Yulan would not have been so arrogant and ruined a good family.
