"No, I still have to call him to make sure he's safe." Gu Jia said worriedly.
"When you wake dad up at two o'clock in the evening, do you think he is good or do you think he is bad?" Xiang Nandu said speechlessly.
It was two o'clock in the middle of the night. If anyone dared to call him at this time, he would dare to curse them.
Gu Jia didn't listen to him and called her father's cell phone directly, but unexpectedly it was busy.
"Why is the line busy? No, I have to go over and take a look." Gu Jia said quickly.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, try calling the landline again." Xiang Nan stopped her and said.
He knows that it is not easy for the elderly to play with smartphones, and the reason for busy lines may just be incorrect settings.
Gu Jia nodded, called the landline again, and finally got through.
"Hey, Dad, are you okay?" Gu Jia asked quickly as soon as the call came through.
"I'm okay, something happened at home?" Gu Jia's father, Gu Jinghong, asked in panic.
"Everything is okay at home, I'm asking if you are okay." Gu Jia explained.
"What can happen to me? Are you having a convulsion in the middle of the night?" Gu Jinghong said angrily after getting out of bed.
"As long as it's okay, I'll see you tomorrow. You can go back to sleep." Gu Jia said awkwardly, but finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I just said it would be fine. You had to make this call." Xiang Nan complained.
"I'm also worried about dad. I'm really worried about him being at home alone." Gu Jia said worriedly.
"I have a way." Xiang Nan smiled, "Honey, let's sell this big house and buy a house with four bedrooms and two living rooms near my dad's house. In this way, we can alleviate the pain of our family. What do you think of being able to take care of dad nearby despite financial pressure?"
"Sell this house? How can we do that? We bought this house with great difficulty." Upon hearing this, Gu Jia immediately waved his hand.
"I originally bought this house mainly for my son to go to school. But in the end, buying this house didn't have much effect. My son was able to go to school only because of Mrs. Wang's recommendation letter." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "So this house, For us, it is no longer of much value.
After selling the house, we will buy another one, and the total payment is only 10 million. After repaying another 10 million loan, there will be 10 million left in cash.
Whether it is financial management, injecting liquidity into the company, or developing other industries, this ten million is better than spending money on this house. "
"But if we move, won't those ladies look down on us even more?" Gu Jia refused.
"Even if we live here, do the ladies think highly of us?" Xiang Nan said amused, "After all, you are just vain."
"Why am I so vain? Don't I also want to live a good life?" Gu Jia said aggrievedly after hearing this.
"You sold this house and got 10 million in cash. Wouldn't our life be better?" Xiang Nan said speechlessly, "Aren't you tired of carrying such an expensive house and such a heavy loan? "
Their family currently has a mortgage loan of 10 million yuan, and they have to repay more than 700,000 yuan a year. As for Jiamei Fireworks Company, its annual profit is only two to three million.
In addition to Xu Ziyan's annual tuition of 200,000 yuan, study abroad, winter camp, summer camp, tutoring classes, various activities, etc., the annual tuition is at least 500,000 yuan.
Their family of three needs about 500,000 yuan a year for food, clothing, housing, transportation, entertainment, leisure, shopping, and beauty treatments. This is already 1.7 million.
Taking into account parents' pension, medical care, and personal relationships, the annual expenditure of 30,000 to 400,000 yuan is not much. For example, last time for Shen Jie's son's birthday, the red envelope contained 100,000 yuan.
Therefore, the Xu family's annual expenditure is more than two million. They seem to be rich and considered middle class, but in fact they don’t have any money left. Once the company encounters a crisis, the family will immediately collapse.
"Are you still blaming me for buying the wrong house?" Gu Jia yelled angrily.
"I'm not blaming you, but I did buy the wrong house." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
"After all, it's not my fault!" Gu Jia was extremely angry, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have let you start a business, shouldn't have let you change to a bigger house, shouldn't have let your son go to Depu, and shouldn't have attended Madam circle...you have already complained about me, right?"
"I'm trying to reason with you, can you stop being emotional all the time?" Xiang Nan said helplessly.
At this moment, the door opened, startling the two of them.
Turning around, he saw Xu Ziyan standing outside the door.
"Dad, Mom, please stop arguing. Tai Di's parents always quarreled, and in the end they didn't give up on Tai Di." He said pitifully.
"It's okay, mom and dad didn't quarrel, they were just discussing things." Xiang Nan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Come on, baby, daddy will take you to bed."
With that said, he picked up his son and went back to his room.
"Hmph~" Gu Jia threw the pillow angrily.
…
When he came to his son's room, Xiang Nan put his son to sleep first, and then slept in his son's room himself.
Next day, I get up, wash up, and have breakfast with my son.
Gu Jia had big dark circles under her eyes. She probably didn't sleep all night last night.
She ignored Xiang Nan, and Xiang Nan ignored her. The atmosphere at the dinner table was rather awkward.
After eating, Sister Chen sent Ziyan to kindergarten.
Gu Jia left Xiang Nan behind, "Husband, I thought about it all night yesterday, and I think what you said makes sense. Like you said, let's sell this house."
"Have you thought it through?" Xiang Nan was stunned and asked, "Actually, we don't necessarily have to sell the house. Our family has received a new order from the amusement park, and our annual income can almost double. In two or three years, we can... I can pay off all the loans. As for dad, I can send him to a nursing home, what do you think?"
"It's better to sell it." Gu Jia waved his hand.
"Okay, it's up to you, it's settled." Xiang Nan nodded.
"However, after selling the house and getting the money, I want to use the money to start a business." Gu Jia added.
She thought about it all night yesterday and realized that it was better to rely on herself than relying on heaven and earth.
The reason why Xiang Nan dared to whisper to him was because he was the backbone of the family. The family's income depends on the company, and the nominal boss of the company is Xiang Nan.
Although she also participated in management, she had no name or status and did not have any position in the company, so she was not as confident as Xiang Nan.
In addition, he has changed a lot during this period and has done well in several business negotiations, so he no longer needs her help.
Gu Jia considered that this was why Xiang Nan dared to whisper to her.
So after learning from the experience, she decided to start her own business. When she makes money, she can buy a bigger house, buy brand-name bags, and become a leader in the wife circle. She won't have to rely on Xiang Nan, let alone be humiliated by him.
"Okay, but I have the right to make suggestions about your project." Xiang Nan nodded.
He knew that Gu Jia was capable, but it was limited to public relations and marketing. If she starts a business, she can easily lose her money if she is not careful.
This can be seen from the fact that she opened a tea factory. She took over a bad deal without doing any research beforehand, and then acted emotionally afterwards, broke up with the wife circle, refused the acquisition by VC, and blindly invested 200,000 in network marketing. All the results were... It's all in vain...
It can be seen from these that Gu Jia does not have the ability to control a project. If there is no restraint, it is easy for her to lose all 10 million yuan.
"Okay, but you only have the right to make suggestions, and I will make the final decision." Gu Jia nodded.
