Transmigration: On the Gossip Front-Chapter 1792 - 1793: Wealthy Family Eldest Branch’s Granddaughter 56
Zhang Yinghao shook his head. He knew that loan shark interests were high, but he really had no idea how much.
"I don’t know either, but at least the interest for one day would be twenty thousand."
"Do you think just relying on rent will do?"
Zhang Yu didn’t want to say she would forgive Zhang Yutong, nor would she say she didn’t know things would turn out like this. That would be too fake.
Zhang Yinghao took a deep breath. Twenty thousand wasn’t really a big sum for him. He received a five-figure amount in New Year’s money every year, and with what the elders gave him regularly, he had a lot of money in his small treasury, already into six figures and soon to reach seven.
He never expected his big cousin to owe so much, with daily interest of twenty thousand. His savings couldn’t even cover 50 days of interest.
"You also need to know, the scariest part about loan shark interest is the compounding. If the interest isn’t paid every month, it gets added to the principal."
"I don’t know how much your cousin borrowed initially, but for this two million loan, I think quite a bit of it must be interest."
"Either quickly pay off both the principal and interest, or sell all the properties under your mother’s name. That money can cover it, but selling everything would certainly make your dad angry."
"Your mom knew aunt returned the house to me, so she’s thinking of borrowing it first."
"Perhaps in your mom’s mind, once you get through this time, you can buy back the house when you have money later. But do you know, the house and shop my dad bought originally are now hot property? It’s easy to sell, but not easy to buy back."
"More importantly, I don’t know if your parents have told you," Zhang Yutong definitely wouldn’t say, since it’s her family’s business, and about Zhang Hai, she doesn’t know either, "that amidst so much debt on your cousin, he went gambling again. I heard from Second Uncle he gambled in some big boss’s place, but I don’t know the details."
"And if this incident hadn’t blown up, they planned to use his loan shark debt to make him tell them the goings-on in the company’s investment department."
Zhang Yinghao didn’t know anything about this. That day Zhang Hai mentioned wanting to divorce his parents only briefly, blaming the big cousin’s gambling debt, but the reason was rather vague.
When he called Zhang Yutong, she just cried nonstop, not saying the specific reason, only repeatedly saying sorry and not wanting a divorce.
The old man here told him that the Zhang Family had become a burden, analyzing the issue from a profit angle.
After listening to Zhang Yu’s words, Zhang Yinghao gasped. He had begun to slowly understand some company affairs.
For example, he knew the investment department could earn lots of money for the company yearly. If the big cousin operated this way, it would harm the Zhang Family’s interests. Zhang Yinghao certainly knew the importance.
"Also, your mom actually thought of marrying the eldest sister to the big cousin." Zhang Yu dropped another bomb.
Zhang Yinghao gasped heavily. He was already shocked by the previous news, feeling his brain was at its limit.
Who would have thought that the previous news was nothing? This was the most terrifying thing.
"My mom, why would she think of doing that."
"Elder Sister would never agree." Zhang Yinghao’s vision went black, "If generous aunt knew."
Originally, for the company’s inheritance, Zhang Hujuan had already had all sorts of conflicts with the family, and now Zhang Yutong did this, offending Zhang Hujuan once again.
"And then yesterday morning, Grandpa first had me and your mom reconcile. Your grandpa’s meaning was that since I suffered no loss, we should drop it, and I agreed."
"After all, I don’t have parents. Your parents’ divorce wouldn’t be good for you either."
"I just wanted your parents to promise not to scheme my things again. I said I had already given up on the Zhang Group’s stuff. This is the only thing I can own."
Zhang Yinghao let out a ’huh.’ He really didn’t know this, as Zhang Hai and Zhang Yutong hadn’t mentioned it, especially the latter. She kept saying if Zhang Yu didn’t pursue this, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.
Who could’ve imagined Zhang Yu had already stopped pursuing it, "Then why still divorce."
"Specifically, I don’t know. That time, Second Uncle and I were called by the old man to the study, but before we left, your mom and uncle were making a fuss together."
"Then while we were still in the study, your dad came up saying he wanted a divorce." Zhang Yu explained the details.
"You can ask the old man, and for that section in the living room, you can ask the family maid. They probably heard something."
"The little uncle’s meaning is your big cousin hasn’t realized his mistake. Otherwise, why keep gambling and owing so much, thinking that just because his aunt is Madam Zhang Hai."
"When the Zhang Family shrugs and says there’s no money, then at the Zhang Group’s place, causing trouble for debts, if this spreads..." Indeed, people should not be soft-hearted, better to be a wise older sister.
Hmm, these two still didn’t forget to tarnish her in the end. It’s unforgivable. Even if it’s just a child, they have the right to know the facts.
Those loan sharks pull banners under the Zhang Group? Zhang Yinghao’s face changed suddenly. If they really did that, Zhang Group would become famous, or more accurately, he, the Zhang Family’s grandson, would become famous.
"People, once they touch gambling, you can’t expect their minds to be clear." Zhang Yu sighed.
Zhang Yinghao deeply agreed. Though he wasn’t old, he heard from Zhang Fugui that several people who went south to do business with him floated after making money, fell in love with gambling, and swiftly lost everything, ending up broke.
Even those who have seen the world can be so weak-willed, he really doesn’t think his own cousin could be strong-willed.
Had he any motivation, he wouldn’t have reached this point.
"Your dad has his calculations, and of course, they’re for your own good. He can ignore the Zhang Family, not help, control little aunt’s finances, and not give her money."
"But what will you do, you’re the Zhang Family’s grandson, your grandparents appealed, what will you do."
"Also, I don’t mean to say your cousin is bad, but for his desires, he could ignore the company’s succession to little uncle and harm the company’s interests."
"If someday someone offers a high price for him to lure you into bad habits, like those substances, do you think he would?" Zhang Yu never overestimated a gambler’s conscience.
For them, as long as there’s money to gamble, they will do anything. They’re no different from those addicts.
Zhang Yinghao gasped. He wanted to say no, my cousin wouldn’t do that, but he couldn’t say it out loud.
Zhang Yu lowered her head with a smile. See, even Zhang Yinghao thinks the Zhang Family member is very likely to do such a thing.
