Chapter 126 Xi Family
Without hesitation, the two bought tickets and headed to their destination.
This long-established resort, named Yuanhe, is one of the earliest resorts.
The area boasts beautiful mountains and clear waters, with a river meandering through it, dividing the resort into two parts connected by several bridges.
The pollution level here is an alarming 15%.
Before Anwar, this was arguably the least polluted natural landscape here.
"Speaking of which, this place is still owned by the Xi family."
Liu Nian and Feng Shuyuan introduced it.
"Oh?"
Before the story of the passing years, Feng Shuyuan really didn't know much about it.
She only inherited the most profound part of the original owner's memories; she had no recollection of such unimportant knowledge.
"Speaking of which, the Xi family is quite different from other companies."
Seeing Feng Shuyuan's curiosity, Liu Nian didn't hesitate to say a few more words.
"The characteristic of his family is that they are all very Buddhist-like, at least that's how the Xi family members I know are."
"Are there really people who are 'Buddhist-like' in the business world? How can they do business like that?"
Feng Shuyuan was a little skeptical.
"Well, to put it simply, they have virtually no rivals on their own track, so they can only compete against their own people at most."
Liu Nian shook his head.
“Each adult child of the Xi family will be allocated a resort, and the resources will be adjusted at the end of the year based on the operating conditions of each resort.”
"But after operating for so long, each resort has already formed its own customer base, so it's not that how they compete will make a difference."
The fleeting years fell silent for a moment.
"Of course, I'm referring to before Anwar appeared."
“Anwar is a phenomenal resort, not a typical resort.”
Thank you for your compliment.
Upon suddenly hearing his own name, Feng Shuyuan was both amused and exasperated.
"In short, no matter how hard his children try to compete, they can't get much more. They won't be short of what they deserve even if they just lie down. So, generation after generation, they have almost completely given up."
As if she had thought of something, Liu Nian couldn't help but smile.
“In the past, at many business dinners, the younger generation of each family should have been brought out for a get-together, but the Xi family always only sent the person in charge.”
"According to them, they won't get anything extra from coming here, so they might as well stay in their own territory and rest for a while."
"After all, work is tiring enough, so don't add to your burden during rest time."
Feng Shuyuan nodded.
Yes, that's what she thought too.
Unfortunately, Anwar is still developing and cannot afford to slack off like this.
"However, over the years, it seems that there have always been people trying to expose their 'Buddhist' facade, which has annoyed them to no end."
When he said this, Liu Nian was extremely happy.
This is really interesting, isn't it?
Feng Shuyuan also smiled.
"They seem to be a very different family."
"I'd really like to get to know you if I have the chance."
Liu Nian glanced at her and said speechlessly:
"Don't you realize that you are now the biggest enemy of their Buddhist-like lifestyle?"
Feng Shuyuan froze.
It seems that this is really the case.
……
At the Yuanhe Resort.
"Boss, we've spotted someone; it seems you should come and take a look."
Xi Zhengchu was resting in his break room when he suddenly heard a report from an employee.
"what's up?"
He responded somewhat impatiently.
He was disturbed from his sleep last night and is now extremely sleepy.
Last night, around midnight, a man who called himself "Mr. Factory" called him.
He assumed it was a business collaboration or that an employee needed to contact him, so he patiently answered the call.
It turned out that this factory owner was actually asking him to join forces against Anwar.
Although Anwar's arrival did indeed affect his customer traffic, it affected more than just his business.
Thinking that his brothers' and sisters' resorts must have been affected, Xi Zhengchu was no longer in a hurry.
Is being anxious helpful?
Is he able to find those unique foods, or can he make his resort pollution-free?
Can't do it.
Thinking about all this is tiring, I'd better just wash up and go to sleep.
As for dealing with Anwar?
She attracted the customer through her own abilities, and you used malicious means to sabotage her?
Xi Zhengchu came to Yuanhe as an adult and ran the business honestly for seven or eight years. He looked down on and disdained using such despicable means.
He was so tired that he didn't feel like arguing with Mr. Chang anymore, so he hung up the phone.
As a result, this person relentlessly kept calling him, and even after being blocked, he quickly changed his phone number and continued to call.
Xi Zhengchu was worried about missing important messages, so he didn't dare to turn off his phone and was kept being bothered by him.
Having quietly run his business for so many years, Xi Zhengchu had never seen anything like this before.
"What on earth are you going to do!"
Finally, Xi Zhengchu couldn't take it anymore and answered the call again.
"I just want to talk to you about something."
The voice on the other end of the phone was clearly different; it sounded sinister.
"Speak, speak!"
Xi Zhengchu knew that he had not gotten his way and that he wouldn't be able to rest tonight.
Then, that person started brainwashing people relentlessly.
It must be said that Mr. Factory's words were truly inflammatory.
From personal ideals to family development, everything seemed to be designed to make him feel that Anwar's existence was utterly heinous.
If Xi Zhengchu is truly an ambitious or narrow-minded person, then he might actually be swayed by him.
Unfortunately, the Xi family lineage is traditionally Buddhist.
Xi Zhengchu couldn't quite remember what he said.
At the end of the call, he only remembered that Mr. Chang sighed as if he was disappointed in Mr. Chang, and then hung up the phone.
"I've already said I won't participate, why don't you believe me?"
Xi Zhengchu mumbled something half-asleep, glanced at the time on his phone, and almost snapped awake.
He cried out in anguish, "I have to go to work tomorrow!"
Then, I forced myself to fall asleep.
He was forced to get up after only three hours of sleep, and is now extremely irritable.
“We noticed that one of the tourists appeared to be an Anwar representative, but we are not sure.”
The staff member said in a low voice.
Although the boss is usually very good-tempered, you should never provoke him when he is occasionally irritable.
"Ah? What did you say?"
Xi Zhengchu suddenly sprang up.
The nightmare from last night seemed to echo in his ears again.
As the saying goes, peers are enemies.
Even though Xi Zhengchu didn't want to use those despicable methods, he absolutely disliked Feng Shuyuan for stealing his business.
Moreover, Feng Shuyuan was one of the culprits for his lack of rest last night.
"Why is she everywhere? I'm not going!"
Xi Zhengchu sat back down in his chair, fuming.
Why is everyone coming to see me these past two days?
Can't he just quietly relax and enjoy his work, or clock in and out peacefully?
Looking at the live surveillance footage sent by the staff, Xi Zhengchu began to struggle again.
The people in charge of Anhua are all here. Would it be inappropriate for me not to go?
Oh well, they didn't message me, so they probably don't want to meet.
But if the other brothers and sisters knew that Anwar's person in charge had been here, wouldn't they say he was not doing his job?
Just say it, I'm not afraid of anything.
Sigh, I hope my own father and other elders won't nag me about this.
"Never mind, let's go take a look."
After struggling for a long time, Xi Zhengchu steeled his heart and said those words.
The staff watched silently as their boss struggled with his inner turmoil.
He shouldn't be silenced, right?
I guess so?
