Qian Duoduo's Difficulties

"Why not?" Guan Ting was a little confused about this. Being reluctant to give is one thing, but being willing to give but not being able to give is another.

"Xiaoting, there are some things you don't understand." Qian Duoduo sighed, "The assets of Qiancheng Investment are nominally mine, but in reality, that's not the case."

"What's going on?" Guan Ting couldn't help but ask.

Qian Duoduo seemed to want to say something but stopped himself. He sighed and just drove silently without saying anything.

"What can't you say?" Guan Ting looked a little unhappy, "We're getting married soon, and you don't even believe me?"

"Xiaoting, don't get me wrong. It's not that I don't trust you." Qian Duoduo quickly explained, "I just don't want you to worry about these things."

"But if you don't tell me now, I will be even more worried." Guan Ting pouted. It wasn't that she had to know some secret, but she felt that Qian Duoduo didn't trust her enough, so naturally she was a little unhappy.

Seeing Guan Ting like this, Qian Duoduo felt a little helpless. After a moment of hesitation, he finally nodded: "Okay, Xiaoting, I originally wanted to tell you these things later. Now that you want to know, I will tell you."

"Then what's going on? The money is not yours, could it be your Qian family's?" Guan Ting seemed a little anxious, "But even if it is yours, it can be considered yours."

Qian Duoduo shook his head and said, "Xiaoting, this money is not mine, nor is it my family's. In fact, it has nothing to do with our Qian family. I do have some money in it, but it's not much. In fact, out of the tens of billions of assets of Qiancheng Investment, I only have about 10 billion."

"Then who does the rest of the money belong to?" Guan Ting became more and more confused the more she listened. The money was clearly in Qian Duoduo's name, but it was neither Qian Duoduo's nor the Qian family's. So who else could it belong to?

"This money actually doesn't belong to any one person, but to many people." Qian Duoduo no longer concealed it and began to explain in detail to Guan Ting, "Xiaoting, you should know that there are countless families in Beijing, big and small, and each family has many direct or collateral descendants, and among these family descendants, there is a kind of person who is quite special."

"What special person?" Guan Ting was a little puzzled.

"There is a type of people who are self-disciplined and are not willing to use their family power to gain some illegitimate benefits. They hope to rely on their own efforts to get what they want. However, there are actually two types of people like them. One type is very capable and can make a name for themselves and live a good life even if they rely on themselves." Qian Duoduo explained calmly, "But there is another type of people. Simply put, they are not very good at making money. As a result, their lives are not as good as those who use their family power to do evil things."

Qian Duoduo sighed softly when he said this, "These days, honest people always suffer losses. As the saying goes, the bold will die of overeating, while the timid will die of starvation. This is true for ordinary people, and it is also true for the children of the noble families in the capital."

Guan Ting agreed: "Indeed, honest people are always at risk."

After a pause, Guan Ting felt strange again: "But what does this have to do with the money you mentioned?"

"I have always felt that it is unfair to let honest people suffer, so I wanted to change this situation back then, and then I founded Future Investment Company. I asked them to give me their money and I helped them invest, so that I could make them have a good income every year." Qian Duoduo finally got to the point, "Back then, they each took out hundreds of thousands or millions and handed them to me, and I did not let them down. Future Investment has grown from hundreds of millions in assets at the beginning to tens of billions now. The dividends I give them every year ensure that even if they cannot catch up with those others, they are not much behind."

Guan Ting was stunned for a moment. After a while, she asked, "Are you saying that this money belongs to many family members in Beijing?"

"That's right." Qian Duoduo nodded affirmatively. "They have tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars with me. Although the money is nominally mine, we all know exactly how much each person has. Over the years, I have distributed dividends to them once a year, and they all trust me."

After slowly exhaling, Qian Duoduo continued, "Xiaoting, I think you should understand now why I can't give the money to others."

"But, but what if you are really sick?" Guan Ting did understand something, but she was even more worried at this moment.

"When I first established this investment company, I just thought that honest people should not suffer losses. But now, this is more than just an investment company. Over the years, I have established a very good reputation and brought countless benefits to the Qian family." Qian Duoduo looked quite solemn. "If this investment company operates normally, then I have those people backing me up. In fact, no one can estimate how powerful they are together, but once this investment company has problems, it may bring a devastating blow to me and the Qian family."

Guan Ting didn't say anything. She was not stupid and naturally understood this principle. Although Qian Duoduo did not explicitly say how many people had money with him, it only took a rough estimate to know that there were at least hundreds of people, hundreds of family members in the capital. Although some of them were only from small families, if they were tied together, their power would be truly immeasurable.

"Xiaoting, even if I'm really sick, I can die, but I can't give half of the assets of this investment company to Xia Tian." Qian Duoduo sighed, "Now I can only hope that I'm not actually sick."

Guan Ting was suddenly in a bad mood. After a while, she suddenly remembered something: "Oh, Xia Tian seemed to have said that you didn't have any disease, but you saw a doctor you shouldn't have. Did you really see a doctor?"
