Hearing Yu Zhou say this, Lin Haichao did not insist further.
He had indeed long considered himself part of this family, because in his eyes, a family's atmosphere should be like this.
Even though there were things Yu Zhou did before that Lin Haichao found a bit displeasing, the honesty and lack of schemes among them was the most comforting thing to Lin Haichao.
It was unlike his own siblings, who were filled with calculations solely for profit.
Moreover, the current Yu Zhou was very different from before. He remembered that when he last saw him, he was polite to him.
However, as long as he hinted that he could help him with something, Yu Zhou never refused.
Now, Yu Zhou's first thought was to consider him, knowing that even though his help was expected, a certain price must be paid.
Under such circumstances, how could his words not make Lin Haichao feel emotional, and not feel that even if he had to pay, it was all worth it?
"However, although I may not be able to help you much for now, I can give you some information."
"This can be considered indirectly letting you understand some things!"
Lin Haichao had already made up his mind that if his brother-in-law had any trouble, he would step forward immediately.
Yu Zhou was his wife's younger brother, and he was also a member of the Yu family. To Lin Haichao, he was completely different from those arrogant second-generation rich kids.
Perhaps it was due to his upbringing? He extremely disliked the atmosphere in his own home, as if everyone was gathered for development and profit.
"Information? Brother-in-law, are you talking about my business partner?"
Yu Zhou's eyebrows shot up, and he immediately guessed what the information Lin Haichao was referring to was.
Lin Haichao, who was in the capital, had not only relied on his family's connections to reach his current position.
To be precise, his abilities were outstanding, and he was even among the best in the Beijing circle.
For such a person, to say he had no schemes would be unbelievable. With his reputation, it was normal for him to know Qin Siyue.
"You're quite sharp. I want to tell you about your business partner's reputation, and also explain the background of your sister-in-law's boss."
Lin Haichao was too lazy to hide anything from his brother-in-law. With a smile, he dropped a bombshell.
"You know all this?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Yu Zhou's eyes. Even he felt that knowing some information or not knowing it didn't make much of a difference.
But whether it was his business partner or something else, knowing was always better than not knowing.
"Your business partner's reputation is quite good. Qin Siyue is from the Fang family in the capital, and she is the daughter that the third master of the Fang family had always owed outside."
"Therefore, after she returned to the Fang family, all the resources controlled by the third master of the Fang family were given to his daughter."
"As a result, they have strong connections with the customs at the coastal areas and started the customs business. However, as Ms. Qin, your business partner, said, this business probably won't last for many more years."
"Her reputation in the capital is quite good; she is a trustworthy person. Therefore, cooperating with her is not a bad choice."
While introducing Qin Siyue's background, Lin Haichao also revealed all of her reputation in the capital.
He understood clearly that cooperating with someone like her was definitely not a bad thing for Yu Zhou.
After all, among their generation of second and third-generation rich kids, very few could conduct business honestly and without overstepping boundaries.
Qin Siyue was a representative of them. Although the money she earned went into her own pocket, a good reputation versus a bad reputation was very important for self-employed bosses like Yu Zhou.
Cooperating with her was essentially a gamble.
For those who were completely brain-damaged, malicious, or reckless second-generation rich kids, they might be good at the beginning of the cooperation, but would they later swallow you whole?
With Lin Haichao around, the possibility of such a thing happening might be small, but it had to be guarded against.
Otherwise, if all your hard work over the years ended up in vain, it would not just be a setback for a self-employed entrepreneur like Yu Zhou, but utter destruction.
Because Yu Zhou was family, even if Yu Zhou hadn't asked for his help, for safety's sake, he would investigate everyone around Yu Zhou.
Lin Haichao had always been like this. After he revealed all of Qin Siyue's past, Yu Zhou's gratitude had not diminished.
How much of a scoundrel had he been in his past life? Such a family, such relatives who wholeheartedly considered him, he had always ignored due to stubbornness.
Thinking back now, even if his wife had left him in despair and he had given up on himself, Yu Zhou still felt that his past self was truly too wrong.
His sister and brother-in-law who were devoted to him, his older brother who was disappointed in his lack of progress – these were supposed to be his closest relatives, and it was Yu Zhou himself who had lost them.
"Actually, I don't plan to make this dried fruit factory my career in the end. In a few years, if Qin Siyue needs it, I won't mind selling my shares to her at a reasonable price."
For others, Yu Zhou might not reveal his thoughts, but for these family members who cared about him and wholeheartedly thought of him, Yu Zhou would not hide anything.
Originally, the career he wanted to pursue was the electronics industry, which he had done in his past life. However, doing electronics in this era was too difficult, and the initial capital was so large that it made Yu Zhou despair.
Under such circumstances, accumulating initial capital became a necessary and inevitable choice for Yu Zhou.
He cooperated with Qin Siyue with this in mind. Otherwise, this 51% stake would not be enough.
To achieve absolute control, at least 60-70% would be needed, so that after several rounds of dilution, he could still maintain complete control.
"You have this idea?"
Lin Haichao looked at Yu Zhou with surprise. He really hadn't expected that his brother-in-law had already planned out his future path.
Before this, in his eyes, Yu Zhou was just someone with a lively mind, but he was a street ruffian who only knew how to play all day long.
Perhaps he had a good heart, but to say that he could achieve great things, Lin Haichao would never have believed it even if he were beaten to death.
