Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 341 - 340: Greed

"The money from the shares, how about writing an IOU first and paying it back after the year-end dividends come in? We are all family here," Han Qi suggested, trying to work around the idea.

Gu Xiaoqing sneered, treating everyone like fools.

"Sis-in-law, if you say that, can’t I just owe you too, and pay you back at the end of the year? Then I might as well take over myself since we all have the same amount of shares. It’s not like you should get the first pick."

"That’s not acceptable. Why should it be owed?"

Han Qi was not willing.

Gu Xiaoqing smiled at Han Qi, making her a bit uncomfortable. She just said the same words, refusing to credit others. Why would others agree to credit her?

Li Weimin and Li Weiqiang were both reminded by Gu Xiaoqing’s words.

Yes, if the shares were purchased this way, the shop wouldn’t have to break up.

Jianhui noticed Han Qi was speechless, realizing Han Qi couldn’t come up with the money.

He calculated the money he had combined with what his father had, and if it wasn’t enough, he could ask his aunt for a little more, thinking it would be manageable.

He then proposed, "Sis-in-law, how about we buy your shares? According to current profits, your thirty percent is roughly two hundred thousand. See if you have any concerns about this number, and if not, I’ll figure out how to gather this money for you."

Han Qi was even more upset upon hearing this.

She quickly turned to Li Weimin, "Dad, this isn’t right. The shop has been open for three years, and even by dividend allocation, we should have sixty thousand in cash. You haven’t mentioned a penny yet, and you mean to dismiss us with twenty thousand?"

This was a confrontation.

Li Weimin was almost faint with anger.

"This is absurd! These three years have been profitable, but before dividing the family’s money, what we earned belongs to the family.

Everything you eat, drink, live, and spend is paid by the family. Now the shares are given to you because we are dividing the family now. Otherwise, every penny in this household belongs to me, Li Weimin, and Li Weiqiang. What does it have to do with you?"

This daughter-in-law’s words were offensive.

She was also forcing the parents-in-law to hand over the family money.

Han Qi was frustrated, "But we can’t get nothing at all, can we?"

"The first year’s business wasn’t great. Over these three years, after various expenses, we have a total of one hundred twenty thousand. Xiaoqing takes forty thousand, and your uncle’s family and we split fifty-fifty, leaving twenty thousand for your grandparents as retirement money, which is deserved. The remaining sixty thousand is split thirty thousand each for us.

Your mother and I are keeping ten thousand and giving you twenty thousand; that’s all the family’s money. If you want it, that’s how it’s divided. If not, then we won’t divide the family."

Li Weimin knew this daughter-in-law wouldn’t give up. If Han Qi didn’t get money from him, she would never stop.

Han Qi calculated; forty thousand for herself if she doesn’t ask for twenty more isn’t enough to pay Li Jianhui. She still couldn’t take over the shares.

But she couldn’t just let Li Jianhui have it cheaply.

She bit her lip and said, "Jianhui, your twenty thousand offer is really mean. Our thirty percent of shares earn tens of thousands in dividends annually, and you want to buy it out for just twenty thousand?"

This was an attempt to inflate the price.

"Sis-in-law, what amount do you want? Tell me, and I’ll see if I can make it work. If not, then forget it," Jianhui shrewdly responded, not mentioning the amount, waiting to see Han Qi’s demand.

Han Qi looked around, biting her lip, "Forty thousand, a one-time buyout."

Li Weimin and Li Weiqiang both sucked in their breaths.

With the current business, how many years would it take to earn that back?

This was plain stubbornness to prevent Jianhui from taking over.

Jianhui smiled and said, "Sis-in-law, I can’t come up with that much. Even if I could, I wouldn’t pay it. This shop’s earnings are set annually. You want me to work for three years for nothing and give you money? I can’t do it.

If you sincerely want this, add five thousand, making it twenty-five thousand. Otherwise, let’s just sell the shop and split the money. I won’t work for nothing and pay you."

Jianhui’s words were honest; solving this with money was due to them being relatives. If it were outsiders, who would do it?

However, Han Qi’s greed was too overwhelming for Jianhui to handle.

Han Qi knew her demand was excessive; forty thousand indeed was impossible.

Raising it to twenty-five thousand was more than she expected. But Han Qi still felt there was room for discussion.

"Jianhui, sis-in-law isn’t making it hard for you. You’ve taken over all the shop’s management rights, and my brother and I have no other skills. Without taking some money, how do we support your nephew?

Twenty-five thousand is too little. How about thirty thousand, so we can have some money to live on?"

This was bargaining.

Wu Fengying stepped up, "Sis-in-law, that’s not right. We’re not obliged to sell the shares. You can keep them and just receive dividends. But you just can’t be in charge.

This thirty thousand in starting a business wouldn’t be earned back in two to three years. We’re not dumb. Who would do this thankless work?"

Treating us like fools.

It was clear who had the upper hand here; there was no need for such effort.

Han Qi sneered, "Yes, I’m someone who can’t stand others succeeding. Fine, second brother, twenty-five thousand it is, but give the money now, so we resolve this immediately. Otherwise, I might change my mind by tomorrow."

Jianhui nodded and said, "Okay, since sis-in-law wants it this way, that’s what we’ll do. Let’s get Brother Li to write a note, and I’ll go with Mom and Dad to withdraw the money. We’ll finalize this today."

Being able to settle this for so little money, Jianhui was willing.

Han Qi didn’t respond, holding her child and heading upstairs.

Li Weimin handed a savings account book to Li Weiqiang, which was a thirty-thousand fixed deposit account.

Then, he handed Gu Xiaoqing a forty-thousand account book.

These were the agreed arrangements.

Gu Xiaoqing looked at Jianhui’s hesitant expression and pushed the account book in front of him.

"Brother Jianhui, take this money first. You’re in need now to resolve things, and I’m not in a hurry. We’re family."

Jianhui gratefully accepted it immediately.

He couldn’t gather much money at once. After giving Han Qi twenty-five thousand, leaving five thousand, Jianhui felt too embarrassed to take it all without leaving anything for his parents. It made him feel ashamed as a son.
