Lín Wēi only realized when she died that having a sister-favoring mother would cause so much damage to her family.
Her father fell from a great height and died. Her younger brother went mis...
"Weiwei, is your project guaranteed? I made sure everything was agreed upon before I came. More than ten people are all counting on this job." Uncle Liu looked at Lin Wei anxiously, waiting for her confirmation.
Lin Wei smiled and said, "I told you before that I would take charge of this project. It's a piece of cake to put a dozen or so people in such a big project. Didn't those uncles and aunts come with us this time?"
"No, I'll go to the construction site tomorrow to coordinate with the contractor. If there are no problems, I'll have them come over on Tuesday, rest for a bit in the evening, and the groundbreaking ceremony can be held on Wednesday."
"Yes, my classmates and I will be going."
After all the dishes were served, Lin Wei quickly poured wine and drinks.
When Aunt Liu saw her like this, she praised her for being sensible.
“Weiwei has become sensible. She is generous and capable in dealing with people, unlike my two children, who are several years older than Weiwei but are not as good as her at all.”
Lin Xiaomeng quickly chimed in, "That's because someone is protecting her. Your child is lucky. If Weiwei had her mother, she wouldn't be like this."
Seeing that the atmosphere was turning sour, Lin Wei quickly tried to smooth things over, "No, why bring up such unpleasant things when the mood is so good?"
"Yes, yes."
Liu Jianmin changed the subject, "Weiwei, you mentioned opening a decoration company before. I don't know what you think of me. After this apartment was completed, you should have already seen my skills, right?"
"What I think isn't the point. The point is, are you willing to work for me? And what about your coworkers? Are they willing to work for you? The same goes for your contractor. How will he be resettled? What will happen to him if so many people leave all at once?"
In fact, Liu Jianmin had already discussed this issue with his coworkers in the past few days.
"The foreman is actually in the renovation business just like me. It's just that he's the one who helps out with things because of his personality. We all get paid the same amount of money and do the same work. If we were to start a company, he could work with us."
"As for the workers, they won't refuse any work as long as there is it."
"In that case, let's find a storefront in the commercial area, either rent or buy, then go through the registration process. I'll quickly draw up the decoration design, and you can start talking to those businesses to see what price we can get for a partial or full package deal. Then we'll put up a three-day ad in the newspaper, and I don't believe we won't attract people."
After Lin Wei finished speaking, she realized that the three adults at the table were staring at her with stunned expressions.
"Weiwei, what are you up to now?"
Lin Wei spoke eloquently, recounting her 'prediction'.
Lin Wei spoke eloquently, but those who listened felt uneasy.
"Weiwei, it's fine to do serious business, but are you sure? Renovation? Isn't it common to do it yourself or just hire anyone? Do you think anyone would be willing to pay for something so professional?"
"Why wouldn't we want to? It can be done for the next 30 years, as long as there is a good design."
pity--
Without a computer, I can't do 3D rendering, nor can I quickly draw using CAD.
Doing it yourself, step by step, will definitely not produce the same results as something made on a computer.
But that's okay, we can take it slow. Once we have business and the renovations are finished, those real-life scenes will become our promotional templates.

The entire meal was told by Lin Wei.
Lin Wei never expected that she could be so talkative.
When she got home, she didn't even want to open her mouth anymore.
"What's wrong? You were so talkative just now, why are you so quiet now?"
Lin Wei ignored Lin Xiaomeng's teasing and rubbed her cheek. "Tired, tired of talking."
Lin Yuan rubbed his ears and said, "I'm tired of listening too. Sister is so talkative."
"I was just afraid of the awkwardness. Everyone was running out of things to talk about, and Brother Awang isn't very talkative either. If I didn't say something, I'd fall to the ground," Lin Wei said. "My cheeks are really tired."
Seeing that Lin Wei was about to wash up and rest, Lin Xiaomeng pulled her back.
"Weiwei, are you confident about the renovation? It's okay if you lose money, but don't let the Liu family lose money too. The Liu family are honest people, how much money can they possibly make?"
“Yes, they don’t have any money at all. How much can they lose?” Lin Wei explained, “Aunt, I’ve been planning to pay for everything from the beginning. I’ll provide the ideas, and Brother Awang will just do the actual work. If the company has business, he’ll work for the company; if the company doesn’t have business, he’ll let them take on private jobs. If they lose money, it will only be my money.”
"Isn't that just you paying them to be supported?"
"No, there's no such thing as being supported. They're not company workers; they just work for Brother Awang. I'm just cooperating with Brother Awang."
According to the original understanding, Lin Wei wanted to do it with the Liu family, with the two families sharing both life and death.
But looking at it now—
Lin Wei is only responsible for providing money; she takes no other responsibility whatsoever.
"You can't put it so harshly. What can they possibly sell? I'll get someone to help me with the sales pitch. I'll do the groundwork in the early stages, but ultimately, it's up to them to maintain the reputation."
In short, it's about investing a sum of money; if there's a return, great; if not, then forget about it.
For Yu Linwei, that little bit of money really wasn't a big deal.
After all, she can earn money.
“I noticed that Aunt Liu’s health isn’t very good, but she can’t stay idle. I guess she’ll have to find work to do.”
"Aunt Liu did this when she was in the new city, doing odd jobs to help support the family. But it's almost Chinese New Year, so there's no need for that anymore. We always need someone to fry meatballs and such."
Hearing Lin Wei's words, Lin Xiaomeng couldn't help but laugh out loud again.
"How big of a stall are you planning to set up for this fried meatball business? You've included almost everyone you can see. Why would anyone bother with you?"
"Why wouldn't you do it? Why wouldn't you do a job that makes money? It'll only be tiring for a month, and we haven't even used up our vacation time this year. Who knows, it might not even be a month."
Lin Wei's heart aches at the thought of the income she would have earned from setting up a stall during winter and summer vacations.
“If it weren’t for the fact that my major would lead to higher earnings in the future, I would definitely drop out of school and go into business.”
"It's a good thing you still have your senses. Alright, go to sleep. If you keep talking, I can't even imagine what kind of things you'll say next."

The Liu family.
"From what Lin Wei said, it seems like she has some ideas, but this child isn't even 20 years old yet, so I'm a little worried," Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu said anxiously.
Liu Jianmin carefully considered his words before speaking, “Actually, I wasn’t too sure about it before, but Weiwei has a good eye. There’s a real market for the renovation industry. We people in Baotou are quite knowledgeable. He said that in Gangcheng, there are separate renovation teams that specialize in that area. They do renovations according to the client’s needs and the price they pay, making it look the way the client wants.”
"It's good that Weiwei has this idea, but our market is still imperfect. Being the first to try something new will definitely bring many unimaginable problems."
