Tang Xiaoxiao shook her head, ultimately unable to overcome the hurdle in her heart, and said carefully, "I do have a slightly different opinion about Bin City."

"Oh?" He Zhan raised his eyebrows with interest.

Tang Xiaoxiao got up and found a notebook and pen. She leaned over the coffee table and quickly sketched a map of Bin City and Y City: "Look here, although the port is not far from Bin City, there is no direct route between them. To get from the port to Bin City, you have to take a boat first and then transfer to a car. The train station and high-speed rail station are quite a distance from Bin City. People from other places who want to take the train or high-speed rail to Bin City have to take a taxi for nearly half an hour after getting off the train."

Looking up at He Zhan, Tang Xiaoxiao continued, "Bin City itself doesn't have any attractive places. Even though it's near the port, if transportation were very convenient, people might be willing to come into the city for a stroll. But having to take such a long detour," Tang Xiaoxiao looked directly into He Zhan's eyes, "Brother-in-law, if you were a businessman, would you choose to go to Y City or Bin City while waiting?"

Seeing He Zhan deep in thought, Tang Xiaoxiao added fuel to the fire: "Admittedly, if the higher-ups want to develop Bin City, they will build many advanced facilities, develop real estate, and add various entertainment venues, etc. But the port is not just next to Bin City, but is located between Bin City and Y City. No matter how much Bin City develops, how can it be more prosperous than Y City? Unless the higher-ups can move the train and high-speed rail stations to Bin City, I am not optimistic about this place."

"Do you think that without the support of outside businesses, the local population of Bin City, which is less than 400,000 and mostly scattered in the surrounding rural areas, has much purchasing power?"

She only mentioned part of the reason; she couldn't explain the deeper reasons. However, she had memories of her past life and knew for certain that Bin City would inevitably decline in the future. Now, she could only offer such simple advice to He Zhan. Although the hope of persuading him was slim, this was all she could do.

We can't just say she has precognitive abilities.

Sure enough, although He Zhan nodded and admitted that what she said made sense, he was clearly not completely convinced. Instead, he said somewhat perfunctorily that he would think about it carefully when he got back.

Tang Xiaoxiao could only stop there and didn't try to persuade her any further.

She's said everything she needed to say. If in the end nothing can be changed, then it can only be said that it was all destined.

With the He family's resources, even losing a few hundred million wouldn't be a crippling blow.

Tang's mother cooked dinner, and the family had a reunion meal. Tang Xinxin's family stayed at the villa overnight and returned to City A the next day.

Tang Xiaoxiao asked the two men to apologize to Grandpa He and Gao Yong for her, explaining that it was inconvenient for her to visit them now, and that she would visit the old man after she finished giving birth.

He Zhan readily agreed.

......

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Tang Xiaoxiao packed her bags and checked into the largest maternal and child hospital in City A.

Tang's parents and Han Yunqi also accompanied them to City A. Tang's parents checked into a nearby hotel. Tang's mother spent the day with Tang Xiaoxiao and returned to the hotel to rest at night, while Han Yunqi simply settled into the empty hospital bed next door.

On the eighth day of the lunar new year, Han Shiping and Guo Mingli also rushed over, worried that the store would open a few days later. It didn't matter that the store opened a few days later; their future grandchildren were more important.

Perhaps feeling that there were already enough people to welcome them, on the evening of the ninth day, Tang Xiaoxiao felt her belly moving and called for doctors and nurses. Two hours later, she was taken directly to the delivery room.
