Chapter 199 Frowning Slightly
As the project progressed, Xu Mingjie and Jia Shifa encountered many new challenges. They not only had to cope with market changes, but also had to solve various problems in the project implementation process.
One night, Xu Mingjie and Jia Shifa were discussing the latest progress of the project in the study. It was dark outside the window, the yard was brightly lit, and the two looked particularly serious.
"Mingjie, we have encountered some problems during the implementation process, which need to be solved as soon as possible," Jia Shifa said, "especially the increasing pressure on funding and human resources."
Xu Mingjie nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Shifa, we need to adjust our strategy and optimize resource allocation. At the same time, we can consider introducing some new investments to ease the financial pressure."
Jia Shifa's eyes flashed with hope. "You are right. We need to be more flexible and pragmatic. I will contact some potential investors immediately to win their support."
Attracting new investment
In order to attract new investment, Xu Mingjie and Jia Shifa actively contacted major investment institutions and enterprises to introduce the project's situation and development prospects. Jia Xiaoying and Niu Tinggui were responsible for preparing relevant materials and presentations to ensure that every negotiation went smoothly.
A few weeks later, Xu Mingjie and Jia Shifa welcomed a group of important guests in the courtyard. They were representatives from major investment institutions and showed great interest in the project.
At night in the courtyard, the sound of raindrops dripped, the lights reflected on the wet stone road, and the air was filled with the fragrance of soil. Xu Xiaofeng walked on the path, her steps brisk and hurried. She felt a little uneasy, always feeling that her grandfather was a little weird recently.
She finally reached the mailroom. This place was bustling with people during the day, but extremely quiet at night. She pushed open the door and found the room was pitch black. She turned on the light and found that her grandfather's desk was piled with unopened letters, but her grandfather was nowhere to be seen.
"Grandpa?" Xu Xiaofeng called softly, but got no response. She panicked and looked around, but still couldn't find any trace of her grandfather.
Looking for clues
Xu Xiaofeng began to carefully search for clues in the mailroom. She walked to her grandfather's desk and found an unopened letter on the desk. She picked up the envelope and found that there was no sender's address on it, only "To Mr. Xu".
She was puzzled and opened the envelope. Inside was a simple note that read, "See you at the usual place at 10 o'clock tonight."
Xu Xiaofeng frowned and thought, "The old place? What is the old place that grandpa often mentioned?"
She recalled that when she was a child, her grandfather often took her to a hidden little garden, which was their secret base. She decided to go there and take a look.
Mysterious old place
Xu Xiaofeng picked up her umbrella and walked quickly towards the small garden. This small garden was located in the corner of the quadrangle and was rarely visited. She pushed open the rusty iron gate and walked into the garden.
The scene in the garden made her slightly startled. It still maintained the look of her grandfather's careful care, with flowers and plants neatly arranged, and a pot of hot tea on the stone table in the middle. She walked quickly to the stone table and found a note on it.
She picked up the note, which read: "Xiaofeng, if you see this note, it means that Grandpa has important things to deal with. Don't worry, Grandpa will be back in a few days."
Xu Xiaofeng felt a little relieved, but still couldn't completely let go. She looked around and suddenly found a shadow swaying in the corner of the garden.
Unexpected discovery
Xu Xiaofeng held her breath and slowly walked towards the corner. She pushed aside the dense flowers and plants and found a small wooden door half-open. A low conversation could be heard from behind the door.
She gently pushed open the wooden door and saw a small basement entrance. She walked down the steps carefully. The basement was dimly lit and she saw her grandfather sitting at a table, talking in a low voice with a strange man.
"Grandpa!" Xu Xiaofeng couldn't help but shout.
When Mr. Xu heard the voice, he turned around suddenly and saw his granddaughter standing at the door. His face changed: "Xiaofeng, why are you here?"
Xu Xiaofeng walked quickly to his grandfather and asked anxiously, "Grandpa, what are you doing? Why don't you tell me?"
Grandpa's Secret
Mr. Xu sighed and nodded to the strange man. The man stood up silently, walked to the corner, and seemed to disappear into the shadows.
"Xiao Feng, I didn't want you to know this." Old Xu said in a low voice, "But since you are here, I will tell you the truth."
Xu Xiaofeng sat next to her grandfather and held his hand tightly: "Grandpa, tell me what you want to say. I will support you no matter what happens."
Elder Xu nodded and began to narrate: "Actually, I have been investigating some things that concern the future of our family. That man is my old friend, and he is helping me."
"The future of our family?" Xu Xiaofeng was puzzled. "Grandpa, what on earth is going on?"
Elder Xu took a deep breath and said slowly, "A long time ago, our family had an important inheritance that was hidden. I have been looking for its whereabouts, and now, I finally have some clues."
secret mission
After hearing this, Xu Xiaofeng was shocked: "Grandpa, why didn't you tell me earlier? I can help you look for it."
Mr. Xu patted her hands and said gently, "Xiaofeng, this matter is too complicated and dangerous. I don't want you to get involved. But now that you already know, I can't hide it from you anymore."
Xu Xiaofeng said firmly: "Grandpa, I am not afraid of danger. We are a family, and we should face everything together."
Mr. Xu nodded and smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, Xiaofeng, let's work together. Next, I need you to help me deal with some important documents. These documents are important clues to finding the inheritance."
New clues
Xu Xiaofeng picked up a pile of documents on the table and looked through them carefully. The documents contained some ancient maps and family historical records, as well as some seemingly insignificant letters.
"These maps and records look complicated and we need time to interpret them," said Xu Xiaofeng.
Mr. Xu nodded: "Yes, these documents need to be studied carefully. Our family's legacy may be hidden in these clues."
The two began to divide the work and cooperate, Xu Xiaofeng was responsible for organizing and interpreting the documents, while Xu Lao continued to contact his friends to obtain more information.
The doubt about the high price of beef
At the same time, Niu Tinggui found that Xu Xiaofeng's recent behavior was even more mysterious. He saw Xu Xiaofeng leave in a hurry many times and come back alone late at night. Niu Tinggui was full of doubts and decided to investigate secretly.
One night, Niu Tinggui followed Xu Xiaofeng and saw her walk into the small garden. He stood outside the door, observing her every move.
