Ordinary office worker Tang Xiaoxiao was unexpectedly reborn, returning to ten years ago when she had just graduated from college and had not yet been worn down by society.
Armed with a huge ...
Turning to look at Han Yunqi with satisfaction, Guo Mingli continued, "Before the New Year, this child said he wanted to go out and start his own business. I wasn't willing, but his father enlightened me. A fledgling eagle always has to learn to fly on its own. No matter how reluctant I am as his mother, I have to let go when it's time. Fortunately, our Yunqi is promising. His first venture didn't encounter any setbacks, and he started a small company. He's much better off than his father was back then!"
The elderly Han couple's room was open, right next to the living room, so the conversation inside naturally drifted in. Yu Xiuping and Guo Mingli's voices weren't quiet, and the brothers in the room could hear them clearly. They usually didn't get involved in the barbed banter between women, but hadn't they extracted crucial information? Then, their fourth uncle, Han Shi'an, asked in a loud voice, "Really, Third Brother? Yun Qi has started a company? What does he do?"
Han Shiping smiled and said, "It's just a small-scale operation. They've set up a logistics company, and Yunqi has no experience. It's just the beginning, and there's a long road ahead."
The brothers are all knowledgeable. The logistics industry doesn't really require any professional skills; anyone can do it. But the most important things for scaling up are capital and connections.
Han Shiyong, the second uncle, came out of the house and sat down in the middle of the living room. He asked Han Yunqi, "Yunqi, what's the name of your company? Is it in D City? It must have been tough at first, right? It was hard to find clients, and big trucks weren't cheap. Your dad really dared to give you money to try."
Han Yunqi smiled sweetly and said, "It's a small company in City A called 'Yunxiao Logistics.' It doesn't have many employees. My dad didn't give me much money; it was all investment that came in later."
"Wow, you're really something," Han Shiyong gave a thumbs up. He had worked his way up from account manager to branch manager at the bank, and he knew better than anyone how difficult it was to talk to clients. If you couldn't offer enough benefits, they wouldn't even give you a second glance.
"To secure investment so early in the business requires both luck and skill. But why did they go to City A instead of City D?"
Han Shiping and Guo Mingli knew that their son was going to City A mostly because of his girlfriend. Upon hearing this, Guo Mingli glared at Han Yunqi in annoyance, but did not say anything to contradict him. Han Yunqi then said, "City D is too big, and the rent and other things are expensive, so it's not easy to develop. City A is relatively easier to get started in."
Han Shiyong nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right, that's a very correct idea. It's true that the more prosperous the city, the harder it is to start a business; capital is a major issue. Business is easier to do in smaller places, and the risks are relatively lower." Turning to Han Shiping, he said, "Second Brother, your Yunqi is quite good; he has his own opinions and ideas, which is excellent!"
Han Shiping humbly laughed and said, "Not at all, your Yunyue is just as good." While the two brothers were exchanging pleasantries, the other families didn't look too happy.
They looked at their own children with rather unfriendly eyes.
The second aunt wasn't happy either. Seeing that her family was being completely outclassed by the third son's family, her husband was still praising the other family. Was he out of his mind?
However, since it was a rare occasion for the whole family to get together, she dared not cause trouble and suppressed her resentment.
A few bickering words and sarcastic remarks between sisters-in-law are no big deal, but if it really escalates, her in-laws won't let her off the hook. Even her husband won't tolerate it.
The subsequent family dinners were equally unappetizing. However, the dishes served every year were almost always the same, and everyone was already tired of them, so no one brought it up.
