Chapter 577: Extreme Winning Over
Chapter 577: Extreme Winning Over
At the banquet, Ruan Xinghan gave Jiang Ning enough face and kept saying that he wanted to adopt Jiang Ning as his adopted son.
This caught Jiang Ning off guard.
He treated me as an enemy and tried to kill me.
Now he suddenly adopted me as his adopted son.
This Ruan Xinghan is really inhumane!
It is enough to see that everything he did was for profit, without any emotion at all.
General Lowe was even more depressed about this. "You adopted the person I recommended as your adopted son. What are you doing?"
Jiang Ning did not comment on this, nor did he say whether he would do it or not, he just smiled.
General Luo Wei disagreed: "Xinghan, you have only met Jiang Ning once, isn't it inappropriate to adopt him as your adopted son?"
Ruan Xinghan said with a smile: "Some people are indifferent to each other even after meeting a thousand times, while some people are inseparable after meeting once. I think Jiang Ning has a good impression of me."
"Even if you have a good impression of Jiang Ning, you can't be so careless." Luo Wei said, "Your brothers have been with you through thick and thin. They have been with you for so long, but they are just your younger brothers. As a result, Jiang Ning was adopted as your son as soon as he arrived. What do you think they will think?"
What Lowe said was right. Right now, the group of younger brothers around him were already eyeing him covetously.
Lowe just wants to create this atmosphere.
Because he didn't want Jiang Ning to become Ruan Xinghan's adopted son.
He had finally found such a capable partner, and had just established a friendly relationship with him. He was thinking about becoming brothers with Jiang Ning and supporting each other in the future.
Fortunately, as soon as Jiang Ning arrived in Myanmar, he was spotted by the old man Ruan Xinghan, who wanted to adopt him as his son.
Isn't this just stealing someone's love?
Ruan Xinghan was also drunk, and indeed what he said was a bit hasty.
He looked around and saw that everyone had a hint of anger in their eyes. He knew that he had been a little rash just now, so he hurriedly said, "I was just joking..."
In fact, he was just acting.
He really wanted to adopt Jiang Ning as his adopted son.
Because, even though he now monopolizes the jade industry in Myanmar, as he gets older, his subordinates are beginning to get restless.
One of his sons and one daughter are studying in North America and are not cut out for business. His brothers and sisters-in-law are all lazy and good-for-nothing.
So, although he seemed to be in a good position, in fact, he was fighting alone and was extremely fearful.
You never know when the people below will rise up in rebellion, overthrow his rule, and replace him.
Therefore, if he could successfully take Jiang Ning in, his position would be much more stable.
However, seeing that everyone was very emotional, he hesitated: "Just kidding, just kidding..."
"Father, please accept my child's respect!"
But Jiang Ning knelt on one knee and kowtowed to Ruan Xinghan before he could finish his words.
This put Ruan Xinghan in a difficult position and he couldn't get down.
Afterwards, Jiang Ning asked Leng Yu to bring a bowl of wine and drank it all in front of Ruan Xinghan: "Foster father, I'll drink it. From now on, I will follow you and serve you wholeheartedly."
Ruan Xinghan didn't expect Jiang Ning to be so straightforward. If he continued to say that it was a joke, the situation would be awkward and it would be tantamount to humiliating Jiang Ning.
Besides, he really needed Jiang Ning as his right-hand man, so he no longer cared about other people's opinions and accepted Jiang Ning as his adopted son.
"Okay, okay! Jiang Ning, you will follow me from now on. The jade industry in Myanmar needs brave young people like you!" Ruan Xinghan laughed and patted Jiang Ning's shoulder.
In his plan, Jiang Ning was a chess piece that he had grasped.
With Jiang Ning as his personal guard, let’s see who dares to provoke me easily.
"When we return to my house in the evening, we will perform the ceremony." Ruan Xinghan laughed, looking very proud.
Lowe, on the other hand, was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
He looked at Jiang Ning, confusion flashing in his eyes: "Do you... need it? Is it that necessary?"
Jiang Ning smiled slightly, "One day you will understand me."
"Depend on!"
Lowe was so angry that he swore.
Ruan Xinghan said, "Why, General Luo Wei is not happy with my adoption of a son?"
"Jiang Ning is my brother, you should at least accept him as your brother, how can you accept him as your adopted son?" General Luo Wei couldn't find any other excuse, so he used the seniority as an excuse: "Isn't this taking advantage of me?"
"Oh, I didn't think this through." Ruan Xinghan laughed contemptuously, "But Jiang Ning has agreed to be my adopted son, so I guess no one else has the right to object to this, right?"
"Besides, through Jiang Ning's relationship, aren't we even closer?" Ruan Xinghan smiled and patted General Luo Wei's shoulder: "Before, our relationship was considered brother-in-law and brother-in-law, but now, I am still your uncle, we are closer, you said nephew?"
"Humph!"
General Lowe was so angry that he walked away.
Jiang Ning shook his head helplessly and sighed.
These people all think that they are the protagonists of the play and that everyone else is just a minor supporting role.
So, they naturally think that others have to cater to them.
If you don't cater to others, you will think that others are wrong.
These people who think highly of themselves!
Jiang Ning no longer paid attention to General Luo Wei's departure and turned to look at everyone.
He discovered that many of the people in this group looked unfriendly, as if they were very dissatisfied with the fact that he had become Ruan Xinghan's adopted son.
Of course, more dissatisfaction is directed at Ruan Xinghan.
If we just adopt an outsider as our adopted son, how can we still have any unity in our student association?
However, Ruan Xinghan also had his own plans. He had already seen through the ambitions of this group of people. He took Jiang Ning to give them a warning and tell them that there were more people in this industry than just them. I had elite soldiers and generals, so you all should just shut up.
The banquet ended with an undercurrent.
In the evening, Jiang Ning, Leng Yu, Xiao Ye Xiao Xiaozi and others were invited to Ruan Xinghan's residence.
Ruan Xinghan's residence is located halfway up the mountain, with an elegant environment and overlooking the night view of Myanmar's capital.
Everyone followed Ruan Xinghan to the teahouse, drank some local hangover tea, and then listened to Ruan Xinghan's story.
According to Ruan Xinghan, a hundred years ago, the jade and jadeite business in Myanmar was very chaotic.
At that time, his grandfather Ruan Lengshan was also a jade merchant. He was half Chinese, and the surname Ruan was inherited from his Chinese father.
He also inherited the Chinese people's business acumen and the advantages of bravery and resourcefulness. With his abilities, he conquered the north and the south and unified the entire industry.
At that time, he established the Jade Industry Association, received strong support from the government, and contracted all the mining areas in Myanmar.
However, the brothers who followed Ruan Lengshan to conquer the world naturally need to eat.
At that time, they were all very loyal. Ruan Lengshan divided the mining area into eight pieces of equal size and gave them to the other seven brothers, and kept one piece for himself.
In addition, Ruan Lengshan has been collecting dividends from the other eight mining areas for generations, and has the right to take them back at any time.
This is no different from the ancient emperors.
The other seven families are like seven princes.
As time went by, the other seven families continued to grow stronger and gained more followers, which threatened the status of the Ruan family.
When it came to Ruan Xinghan's generation, he used his intelligence and talent to stabilize the situation, founded the Tongsheng Society, brought everyone into the society, and advocated living and dying together and being in the same boat.
However, he found that after a long time, these people began to make moves again.
Therefore, although Ruan Xinghan seems to be in a good position now, in fact, he is also shaky.
The princes of the world are all trying to rise up, and it is so difficult for him as the emperor!!!
