"It's too early to talk about this now. Let's wait until they come to the city."

"Okay." Li Jiakang nodded in response.

Hu Guilan thought for a moment and asked, "Xiaoxu, when you said that children who are not good at studying should pursue other paths, were you referring to business?"

Now that Li Wenbai is attending university, Li Xu no longer has any concerns. "Yes, but it depends on whether they have the talent and the interest. If they have both, they can start a business. If they have neither, or if they lack one, they can just live a life of idleness and wait for death."

This was too blunt, and everyone was gnashing their teeth. Du Hong couldn't help but say, "Fortunately, the children aren't in the room, otherwise, if they heard this, who knows what they would think of you."

Things discussed at the Li family meeting are generally not convenient to be spread outside, so the children are asked to stay in other rooms at this time.

Li Xu, who knew the children's moral character well, curled his lips and said, "Do you really think they will be angry? Do you believe that if I tell them this, they will jump for joy?"

Others: ...

After thinking about it carefully, they felt that what Li Xu said was indeed very likely to happen.

The other children may have been frightened by how hard Li Wenbai studied to get into college, and now they are particularly unwilling to make progress and just want to lie down.

Maybe they just hope to live the rest of their lives in idleness and waiting for death.

Li Ping pondered for a moment and said hesitantly, "Xiao Xu, are you saying that you want to start a business and expand it so that the children can have enough money to live on?"

"To be precise, it's you and the third brother who are doing business with me."

Li Ping is calm, cautious and decisive. Even if he does not have a talent for business, these qualities are enough to make him a good assistant to Li Xu.

As for Li Chen, Li Xu simply wanted to help his younger brother.

"Ah?" Everyone couldn't help but scream. Sun Xiu quickly asked, "Xiao Xu, are you serious?"

"certainly."

"You have to think clearly. They may not have a talent for business."

Li Xu is well-known in the Li family for his good vision. He chose to do business, which means that there is great potential in business.

Everyone knew that he was proficient in business, and Sun Xiu believed that he could make the business prosperous.

But no one knows whether Li Ping and Li Chen have the talent for business.

It would be fine if they had them, but if not, they might cause losses to Li Xu's business, and eventually the brothers might turn against each other.

Rather than this, it would be better not to bring them along.

Sun Xiu's words were a reminder to Li Xu to think carefully about the consequences, as it was still not too late to regret.

Li Ping understood what Sun Xiu meant. He was also worried about the breakdown of their relationship, so he said decisively, "Forget it. My current job is pretty good."

Previously, Liu Wen promoted Li Ping's rank by two levels, and later when Li Mei became the deputy county magistrate, he promoted him by another level. Now he is a sixth-level clerk, with an administrative level of twenty-four and a salary of forty-three yuan, which is not much different from Li Xu.

Li Ping is very satisfied with the salary.

Li Xu waved his hand. "Given your situation, you can only be promoted one level at most. Forget about it after that. You might as well start business with me. It doesn't matter if you don't have talent. As long as you obey and do as I say, the money you earn in a month will at least be enough for your salary for several years."

Li Ping's academic qualifications are a major flaw. As a junior high school graduate, if he did not have a good background, even if he retired, his administrative level would not exceed level 26.

But even with his background, he could only be promoted to level 23 at most, which is the level for college graduates who just started working.

If we go any higher, it won't make sense no matter where we put it.

Brothers should not do business together. This may be true more than 20 years later, but it is not appropriate now.

Li Xu insisted on letting Li Ping join him because doing business with his family would be more reassuring than partnering with outsiders in the next few years.

In an era of wild capital growth, opportunities are everywhere, but also dangers.

If you partner with outsiders, you may accidentally be killed by them. If you partner with family members, at most you may have financial disputes, but you will not lose your life.

Some people may ask if it is necessary to partner with others?

Let's put it this way: you can't even close your eyes when riding a train alone, and there's the possibility of being robbed. Walking also carries the risk of being hit with a club or stabbed...

When Li Ping heard that he could earn several years' salary in a month, his eyes widened. "Can he earn so much?"

Li Xu smiled and said, "It's possible to earn more."

Not to mention Li Ping, there was no one in the room who was not moved.

Li Chen didn't even think twice before making his decision. "Brother, I'll go with you. I might not be good at other things, but I'm really good at fighting. I'll beat up whoever you want."

Li Xu nodded and continued to look at Li Ping.

Li Ping thought about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind, "I'll go too."

Seeing that he agreed, Li Xu immediately laughed and turned to the others and said, "Mom, sister, you can invest and hold shares when the time comes. You will have a share of the profits. I'll talk to my younger sister when she comes back from vacation."

Sun Xiu and Li Mei looked at each other and agreed.

Then Li Jiakang thought for a moment and asked Li Xu, "When do you plan to start your business?"

"next year."

Next year we will pilot special economic zones and open cities to the outside world. That will be the time to make money.

"Still going to work before doing business?"

"right."

Li Jiakang nodded to show that he understood and said nothing more.

Seeing that everyone had no questions, Li Xu looked at Li Mei and told her the future work guidelines.

After the meeting ended, everyone chatted about other topics for a few minutes before dispersing.
