Chapter 1177 Winning Over

Zhao Changlong said seriously, "Girl, don't worry, there's no one in our family who doesn't know what's good for them. If there really is, don't worry, I'll be the first one to get away with it."

"Your suggestion is perfect. To be honest, now that I have some status, everyone with connections is coming to me. It's not that I don't want to help my relatives, but my abilities are really limited. If the family really had a business, even just giving them jobs would make things much easier for me."

"Uncle Zhao, don't worry, I will definitely help if I can."

"Okay, Uncle Zhao, thank you."

"Why do you have to be so polite with me?"

"Haha! Yes, don't be shy."

“Hongmei, I’ll send a few people over tomorrow too,” He Chuanyong said with a smile.

"My family is the same," Kong Mingde added, not wanting to be left out.

"No problem at all. All three uncles are the same; we're family, and we shouldn't let good things go to outsiders. I will definitely give you the most suitable project for your family."

They were having a pleasant conversation when Zhang Xingguo arrived with the children.

"Old Zhang, you're living a pretty good life now, aren't you?" Zhao Changlong teased him.

"Hehe, it's alright. Old Gu and I will go up the mountain next week."

"Haha, spending time with your grandchildren?"

"Yes, while we're both still in good health, let's share our experience with them so they can avoid making the same mistakes."

"That's a good idea. I'll go wherever I can be of help."

"We need you, especially you. Tell those four people in detail about your two victories against overwhelming odds."

"Sure, that's my life's pride, Old Zhao. I'm so proud to be able to tell them about it. When are we going?"

"While we wait for the call, we should start with the small things."

"What about me? I have glorious deeds too, don't I?"

"Old He, you'll be indispensable."

Zhang Shouyi returned. He greeted the three of them very politely.

"Boss, aren't you going home a bit too early?"

"Hehe, Uncle Zhao, if I had known the three of you were coming, I would have arrived even earlier."

We set up a separate table for the children today, since they're the ones who drink.

The donkey meat was served directly in a large bowl. There were also pig's trotters, braised pork, steamed fish, and prawns.

"Let's satisfy our cravings by eating at my niece's house." Zhao Changlong sipped donkey meat and drank wine with relish.

"Why don't you just come over every week?"

Zhao Changlong shook his head, "It gets boring if it comes too often. Isn't there a saying that things taste better when they're far away and worse when they're close by?"

"Eat up, even eating won't shut you up," Gu Chuanming retorted immediately.

In fact, Gu Chuanming's favorite person was Zhao Changlong, and their relationship was much deeper than with others.

After the children finished eating, they politely came over to say hello and then went out to play. They had an hour of playtime after the meal, which, although scarce, was a rare opportunity for the children to relax.

"Girl, are all these children you're raising just for Zhenye and the others?"

Zhang Hongmei said, "No, I didn't think about it. These are all the children of my family and friends. I just thought that since we're teaching one of them, it wouldn't be a waste for all of us instructors to come here."

"That's a good idea. If we train them according to our own wishes, they will be of help to Zhenye and his team even if they are not behind him in the future."

Zhang Hongmei just laughed; she really hadn't thought that far ahead. It's best for the children to cultivate their own trusted confidants; she would absolutely not interfere.

This was actually the reason why we tried to win over Zhao Changlong and his group earlier. Having indirectly rejected their marriage proposal, we had to find another way to compensate.

After the meal, the three of them left with smiles on their faces.

"Honey, they are very different today. I feel that they are very grateful to you."

"It means I agreed to take them with me when I do business."

Zhang Shouyi gave a thumbs up, saying his wife had made a good move.

The next afternoon, fifteen people from the three families came together.

The three elderly people even thoughtfully provided each of them with a brief introduction.

Kong Mingde's family had two girls and three boys. He Chuanyong's family had the same arrangement, while Zhao Changlong's family had one girl and four boys.

They were all quite young, around sixteen or seventeen years old.

Zhang Hongmei flipped through their resumes. She had a preliminary idea in mind.

"Since you've been sent here, you must know why you're here. So you'll have a year to learn. I want to see which area you're best suited for."

The logistics company is currently short-staffed, so you should all go there. You might be separated later and sent to different companies for training.

"yes!"

"Lu Jing, call Hongxiu and ask her to come and pick up the people. Give her their resumes as well. Also, I want to see their evaluations when they leave, with a score of 10."

"yes."

"Please sit down, everyone. The person in charge will be here in a bit. I look forward to your results."

The nanny brought tea, but the fifteen of them remained very reserved.

Zhang Hongmei sat to one side without saying a word, thinking about how these three old foxes had actually sent their own children over, and she had thought they were from a collateral branch of the family.

Sang Hongxiu arrived quickly and, at Zhang Hongmei's instruction, reported her work directly in the living room.

Drivers have now been trained and tested.

Most importantly, 300 vehicles have been arranged, all in the north and central regions, with none assigned to the south.

"Madam, let's order from the car factory in Haishi. My plan is to have two hundred cars."

“Okay, bring it over here and I’ll sign it. Then I’ll call them and ask Huang Yanqiu to allocate the funds.”

After arranging things for Sang Hongxiu, Zhang Hongmei introduced the fifteen people to her. "From now on, you will lead them. You will decide for yourself which tasks to assign based on their abilities."

"Yes." Sang Hongxiu led them away; Lu Jing had sent a car to take them there.

Time flies, and it's already the end of September. Zhang Hongmei lives a regular life every day.

Zhang Hongmei was very satisfied with this kind of life. The only thing that made her a little unhappy was the matter of Liu Jingsong in Liujiatun.

The child stayed in Liujiatun for a few days, then went to the city to buy a house and went to school there.

That's possible, but he's just a teenager and has no life skills whatsoever. He can't even cook, let alone do laundry.

Liu Jianguo couldn't stand it anymore, so he let him come over for meals every day. But the boy was too selfish and had no intention of paying anything. It was as if Liu Jianguo owed him something.

This is tolerable, but she's always picky and has demands for the food every day.

After a week, Liu Jianguo couldn't stand it anymore and told him that he didn't need to come anymore because he was at work and didn't have time.

But Liu Jingsong said a few words and left. The implication was that Liu Jianguo had wronged him.
