Chapter 162 Gift 4
Although Ziyue plans to take over the family business, her father, Qing Wanjun, is still in his prime and not yet at the age to retire and enjoy his old age. He can easily work for another twenty years.
With Ziyue's abilities, she could easily manage this huge family business on her own. But having such a good father and not using him would be foolish, wouldn't it? Don't you think so?
If the father and daughter joined forces, wouldn't they be able to sweep away a large area?
Ah! She is so filial.
ヾ(＾。^*)
After the two finished their meal, Qing Wanjun called Ziyue to come to the study together.
Well, this is where we need to get down to serious topics.
Qingfu first mentioned the recent situation in the country, with warlords carving up the country. In the eyes of the warlords who had guns, they, as wealthy merchants, were a piece of fat meat that everyone wanted to pounce on and take a bite of.
Among them, the one most targeted is Qing Wanjun, the richest man in China.
Qing Wanjun was a little worried. What if, once his precious daughter gradually took over the family business, people would see that she was a young girl just starting out and dare to make a move on her?
Although he believed in his daughter's abilities, even tigers have their moments of weakness.
He would rather give up his vast fortune than ensure his daughter's safety.
He had also considered finding a capable man to marry into his daughter's family, so that he could raise and supervise her, and she could happily be a carefree little princess.
It's alright now that he's watching over things, but he's getting old and can't stay with his daughter forever. What if his son-in-law treats her badly when he's old and gone?
He couldn't sleep whenever he thought about these things.
The love of the parents is far-reaching.
But he only has one daughter. If he doesn't think about her, who should he think about? He hopes she will be successful, and he also hopes she will be carefree, peaceful, and happy.
Ziyue could feel the deep fatherly love and the heartfelt affection of the man in front of her, so she quickly comforted him, "Dad, I've practiced martial arts since I was little, and I'm quite skilled. When I was abroad, I was fortunate enough to meet a teacher who taught me a lot. Now I can easily take on twenty people at once. Also, my marksmanship is excellent; I can hit the bullseye every time. So, don't worry, Dad, I'm not someone to be trifled with."
She was also giving her father a heads-up in advance so that her superior skills and marksmanship compared to the original owner wouldn't be exposed later.
Upon hearing this, Qing Wanjun burst into laughter, "Really? That's wonderful! Hahaha, my darling is so amazing, Dad is so proud of you."
As for the teacher that my sweetheart mentioned, he wouldn't ask too many questions. If she wanted to say something, she would naturally say it; if she didn't, he wouldn't ask. He trusted that his sweetheart knew what she was doing.
Besides, my daughter has been a studious and intelligent child since she was little, and she can always find the right people to teach her things that interest her.
Therefore, he was not surprised by this.
Today, the country is divided into three major warlord families: the Wang family in the Northwest, the Ye family in the South, and the Xiang family in the Northeast. Among them, the Xiang family is the most powerful.
In addition, there were local warlords like the Han Family Army and the Zhao Family Army.
"My dear, I've already told you about the situation in China. Now that you're back, you should visit those uncles and elders in the business world. In the next few days, I'll take you to visit some elders and attend some banquets with me."
Since Guai Bao'er intends to take over his business influence, he will do everything in his power to pave the way for her.
You see, his friends in the business world have always envied and been jealous of his daughter's excellence and intelligence. He believes that his daughter will definitely surpass him and make those people look bad.
Besides, her father is still alive; he'll protect his daughter.
“Okay, Dad, no problem,” Ziyue replied readily.
Before leaving the study, Ziyue turned around and playfully reminded him, "Dad, remember to look at the gift I prepared for you, don't forget!"
Actually, she had noticed during their conversation that her father's eyes kept glancing at the boxes, so her words were just a tease.
After Ziyue finished speaking, she walked out of the study with a smile and thoughtfully closed the door behind her.
Qing Wanjun shook his head and chuckled as he looked at his daughter's mischievous appearance, but her hands honestly took the three boxes to her and opened them one by one without any hesitation.
Seeing the watch, he nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad, it suits his temperament very well."
He immediately took off his own watch and put on the watch his daughter had given him.
It looks good no matter how you look at it.
My daughter has such good taste.
She truly is worthy of being Qing Wanjun's daughter.
His sweet little girl really understands her father.
The father praised his daughter's eight-hundred-word essay in his mind before opening the second box.
Upon seeing the miniature handgun inside, a look of surprise flashed in Qing Wanjun's eyes.
He never expected that the gift his daughter gave him would be such an exquisite miniature handgun.
Upon picking it up, the entire gun was shorter than his index finger. It was exquisitely crafted, exceptionally miniature, and entirely silver, exuding a cold and ruthless aura that made one wary of its destructive power.
Thinking about what his daughter had just said about her excellent shooting skills, he figured she must have had some experiences abroad. He wouldn't pry too much into it; as long as his daughter was alright, he didn't care about anything else.
I was already quite calm when I saw the hidden blade in the third box.
Qing Wanjun played with the miniature pistol in his hand with great delight, his eyes also fixed on the hidden arrow on the table. He couldn't contain his joy. As expected of his daughter, even her gifts were extraordinary.
Since his daughter was able to get these things for him, she must have her own means of self-preservation. The more means his daughter had to protect herself, the more at ease he would feel.

They are currently in Qingcheng, a coastal city.
In today's business world, the Qing family is the leader, and they dominate half of the market. That's not just empty talk; just imagine how prestigious they are.
However, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down. Not only warlords, but even in the business world, many people are waiting for Qing Wanjun to fall from grace and for his daughter to take over, so that they can get a share of the profits.
However, several of Qing Wanjun's close friends knew that his daughter, Qing Ziyue, was no less capable than any man.
That's a cunning "little fox," a true master of the "manipulative fox," and certainly no pushover. It'll likely disappoint those who want to watch the show but have ulterior motives.
With Ziyue's return from studying abroad, it's like throwing another pebble into this seemingly calm lake that harbors hidden turbulence. As for what kind of ripples it will create, we'll only know in the future.

There is a large business association in the business world, headed by the Qing family, followed by the Zhou, Bai, and Qin families. The heads of the Zhou, Bai, and Qin families can be said to have watched Ziyue grow up. In addition, there are some other leading bosses from various industries.
The next day, Qing Wanjun took Ziyue to visit the Zhou family.
The Zhou family mainly operates docks and ferry businesses. Uncle Zhou is a few years older than Qing Wanjun, and the two can be described as business partners who help each other and are also very compatible in personality.
Ziyue brought Uncle Zhou a pocket watch, a rare find in China, as a gift. Uncle Zhou had always been very kind to Ziyue.
When the original owner was young, she was polite, intelligent, and quick-witted. Uncle Zhou was eager to learn from her and taught her a lot about business strategies, tactics, and management techniques.
