Chapter 338 The Jiang Family’s Problem
In the house rented by the Jiang family, Jiang Nansun, who had just dealt with Jiang Pengfei's funeral, was blocked in the house by a group of creditors who came to collect debts.
"Little girl, you are still a student who has not graduated yet, right? Your father's matter is too big for you, a little girl, to understand. You should ask your mother to come out and talk."
"My dad just left, my mom is not feeling well, and I'm the only one left at home. Either you talk to me or we leave first!"
"Don't worry, little girl. This is not a small matter of a few hundred or a few thousand dollars. The principal, interest, and late payment fees add up to a debt dispute of more than one million. What's more, there are not only me here, but also them. Everyone's situation is different, and you can't negotiate."
As he spoke, the debt collector gestured to the other creditors. A group of debt collectors wearing suits and shirts with unfriendly faces still gave a sense of oppression.
At this moment, the door outside was opened, and Zhu Suosuo came in with Lu Cheng.
"She can't talk, so I'll talk to you."
Jiang Nansun heard the voice, turned around and saw Lu Cheng coming over, and immediately stood up: "Brother Cheng, why...why are you here?"
Then she saw Zhu Suosuo standing beside her, and Jiang Nansun immediately understood something.
Lu Cheng nodded at Jiang Nansun, walked to a single sofa in the living room, and said, "Please give up your seat."
The man sitting in the seat stood up immediately. He was nearly 180 meters tall and weighed at least kilograms. He looked quite intimidating.
"Who are you? Why are you talking to us?"
Lu Cheng grabbed the man's collar and lifted up the 180-pound man, putting him aside. "I don't like people talking so close to me. Let me introduce myself. I'm Lu Cheng from the Lu Group. The Jiang family's affairs are now entrusted to me."
Everyone was so surprised that they were speechless when they saw Lu Cheng easily lifted up a fat and strong man, put him aside, and even helped him straighten his collar.
Those debt collectors who originally wanted to overwhelm Lu Cheng with their momentum were now speechless.
Jiang Nansun on the side was also very surprised. She never expected Lu Cheng to have so much strength.
Zhu Suosuo had seen Lu Cheng practicing martial arts and knew how strong Lu Cheng's physique was, but she didn't expect him to be this strong.
Soon, one of the older debt collectors responded: "Are you Mr. Lu, the one who sells daily chemicals?"
"Yes, it's me."
"Excuse me, since the Jiang family's affairs have been entrusted to you, it's the same for us to talk to you."
Lu Cheng sat casually on the sofa, and a powerful aura burst out, making everyone present stand in awe involuntarily.
"I know everything about the Jiang family. Jiang Pengfei is dead, and there are only three women left. You should also be moderate in what you do."
"We understand that we live in a society ruled by law, and we dare not do anything illegal. But these debts are written in black and white, and there are contracts."
"The Jiang family will definitely pay back the money, but you know how high the interest is and whether it is completely legal. You will not pay less than a cent, and you will not pay more than a cent. You will get the principal, and I will let my lawyer talk to you about the interest. You should also call the boss behind the scenes and let the one who makes the decision come out and speak."
This kind of professional matter can be left to professionals to handle directly. Lu Cheng just needs to sit here.
In fact, these loan sharks who come to collect debts are all skirting the rules to some extent, and if you really want to find their loopholes, it is easy to find problems.
Moreover, they are prone to bad debts in the process of lending, and being able to recover the principal and part of the interest is already good. Jiang Pengfei is already dead, and if someone else dies, they can't bear it.
Soon, Lu Cheng's company's finance staff and lawyers began to reconcile accounts with these creditors one by one.
Lu Cheng took Jiang Nansun into a room inside and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Hearing this, Jiang Nansun could no longer hold back the grievance and fear in her heart, and threw herself directly into Lu Cheng's arms, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
Lu Cheng patted her back gently and didn't say much.
Zhu Suosuo, who was standing by, saw this scene and felt mixed emotions.
After crying for a long time and venting all the grievances in her heart, Jiang Nansun finally came out of Lu Cheng's arms. Looking at the wet marks on the chest of Lu Cheng's shirt, Jiang Nansun felt a little embarrassed.
Zhu Suosuo quickly handed over a tissue and asked Jiang Nansun to wipe her tears first.
"Okay, look at the dark circles under your eyes. You probably haven't had enough rest recently, right? Suosuo, stay with Nansun and let her go to sleep first. Don't think too much. Everything will pass."
Jiang Nansun wiped her tears and looked up at Lu Cheng: "Brother Cheng, thank you."
Jiang Nansun, who already had a good impression of Lu Cheng, immediately felt even more favorable towards him after experiencing this series of events.
After that, after more than an hour of processing, the lawyers and financial personnel brought by Lu Cheng reached an agreement with the other party, lowered the interest rate, and waived most of the late payment fees.
Afterwards, Jiang Nansun, who had rested well, came out again, signed the power of attorney, and left everything to Lu Cheng to handle.
On the other hand, Ye Jinyan also transferred the funds for the purchase of the house to Jiang Nansun's account as soon as possible. Jiang Nansun then began to pay off the creditors one by one as agreed.
With the cooperation of professional lawyers and financial officers, everything was done quickly.
Thanks to the efforts of Lu Group's lawyers and financial staff, after all debts were paid off, Jiang Nansun actually had a little over two million left in her account, which was much better than the several hundred thousand she had expected.
With this sum of money, the Jiang family can at least make a down payment on a small house in the suburbs of Shanghai and settle down temporarily.
Lu Cheng's companionship during this period also made Jiang Nansun feel warm in her heart and she developed an attachment to Lu Cheng.
At this time, Jiang Nansun's aunt Dai Xi also rushed back from Italy, and then proposed to take her sister Dai Yin and Jiang Nansun to leave Shanghai and live abroad.
"Sister, you have been married into the Jiang family for more than 20 years, and you have always been disliked by the old lady. Jiang Pengfei has always been disappointing and has caused you trouble. Now that Jiang Pengfei is dead, you don't have to stay with someone who dislikes you. I have made up my mind. This time when I come back, I will take you and Nansun to Italy."
"What about the old lady?"
"Send him to a nursing home. Many elderly people nowadays are willing to live in a nursing home."
After the two sisters finished talking for a while, they went straight to the old lady and made it clear: "I will take my sister and Nansun to Italy, and I will arrange for you to stay in a nursing home later."
The old lady was shocked: "Nan Sun is my granddaughter, why do you take her away?"
Seeing that her sister didn't say anything, Daisy continued, "To be honest, you have always looked down on my sister and treated her badly over the years. You can't expect someone you have looked down on for half your life to take care of you in your old age."
The old lady looked at her daughter-in-law with some sadness: "Dai Yin, I admit that I did say some bad things over the years. But since you joined our family, I have never deducted money from you in terms of food, clothing and daily expenses. You two don't work, and I have always supported you. You go out to play cards, dance, and buy things every day, and you never save money when spending money, and I never said anything.
We have lived together for decades, and it has not been easy. Now that there is a problem in our family, it should not be just my problem, right? Why do we have to separate like this?"
Dai Yin finally spoke at this time: "Over the years, I have indeed spent a lot of money on the Jiang family. Don't worry, I will find a way to pay you back in the future. If you are in a nursing home and the money is not enough, I will continue to give you money. Even if you have to wash dishes abroad, I will support you until you are old."
The old lady didn't say anything after hearing this. Jiang Nansun, who was standing outside the door, also heard the conversation in the room. Then she got up, went out, took a taxi, and went to find Lu Cheng. During this period of time, she had become accustomed to looking for Brother Cheng when she had problems...
