Chapter 120: We need to give them some encouragement!
That night, Bi Lizhu lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
An Jianping, who was also unable to sleep due to her disturbance, surprisingly remained silent.
He's still thinking about it.
Are the things the second daughter is doing intentionally or unintentionally?
Before he could even consider the situation, his wife's voice rang out:
"Jianping, tell me, aren't we being too distrustful of the children?"
An Jianping turned over in the darkness to face his wife.
But a thought lingered in my mind...
Here it is. Perhaps this is what our daughter originally wanted to achieve?
"After thinking it over, I still think that our initial concerns were certainly not unfounded!"
"But times have changed!"
“We’ve seen the children’s temperament and their behavior these days.”
"How about we give them some encouragement?"
"What kind of encouragement?" An Jianping finally followed up with his wife's question.
"I was thinking... how about we just let them invest or spend no more than 100,000 a month?"
"However, this investment can't be made every month, and if the expenses really reach 100,000 every month, that won't work!"
"Then let's just make it a million a year!"
"We won't interfere with anything within this scope. At least let them get some proper training."
"We'll have them give us a proper report in six months or a year!" Bi Lizhu's tone still carried a hint of uncertainty.
After all, before this, let alone a child earning 100,000 a month, or even a million a year.
Even if all their family savings were combined, they wouldn't reach a million a year.
However, if they are truly restricted indefinitely...
It's as if they've completely stifled the courage of several children.
An Jianping rolled over and lay flat, looking at the dark roof.
For a moment, he was unsure about his earlier guess.
But when Bi Lizhu asked again, he couldn't help but ask:
"Are you really comfortable with giving them a monthly investment or expense limit of 100,000?"
"A million a year?"
Bi Lizhu remained silent for a long while before saying:
"I certainly can't be completely uneasy."
“But Jianping, I’ve done the calculations.”
"With the money the children have, even if they spend or invest a million every year, it would be enough for them to live on for forty years."
"This may be longer than the time we still have to watch over the children."
"If, after such a long period of time, the children still haven't learned how to manage this money themselves..."
"And use that money to create wealth or improve yourself."
"Even if we watch over them for the rest of our lives, it won't do any good."
"In that case, we might as well learn to let go while we can still watch!"
An Jianping closed his eyes and thought for a long time before saying:
"What if they suddenly have an investment that requires spending tens of millions?"
“Then let’s do it the same way as before, and use your investment plan to convince us!” Bi Lizhu answered decisively.
But after saying that, I felt something was off.
Shouldn't the husband use hundreds of thousands or millions as examples?
How did the amount suddenly skyrocket to tens of millions?
Before she could think any further, her husband's approving voice came from the darkness: "Then let's do it this way!"
The next morning, without Bi Lizhu urging her, An Songyu directly explained her itinerary for the day.
About that shop.
The first person An Songyu thought of to learn about her was Yu Yingying.
Last night, after Bi Lizhu reprimanded her, she called to ask about it.
Yu Yingying was very open and honest in speaking her mind.
But aside from the information they wanted to know when looking for a shop, she didn't know anything else.
Fortunately, Yu Yingying knew someone who knew about this shop.
The two agreed to meet today to introduce themselves.
After listening to her daughter's explanation, Bi Lizhu nodded in satisfaction.
Then she added, "Xiaoyu, Xiaoxiang, if you two don't have any other plans tonight, come back on time."
"I've invited your brother and sister-in-law along; I have something to announce."
The An sisters exchanged a surprised glance.
I felt that Bi Lizhu's attitude at this moment was somewhat strange.
But the two sisters didn't think much of it.
Recently, not only has An Songyu been busy, but An Songxiang is not doing much better.
Having taken An Songyu's advice to heart, she has recently started to seriously consider running her Hong Kong personal shopping business.
I've been taking a lot of leave from work.
She not only wanted to go back and finish the work she had missed, but she was also seriously considering leaving the company.
An Songyu came out of her house and only remembered when she saw the car in the yard.
She was reminded about taking her driver's license test yesterday.
I did call my aunt, but it seems like taking the exam without any preparation isn't going to work!
Fortunately, getting a driver's license these days is more flexible.
An Songyu wondered if she could also try to find a way to get something from her father.
With this in mind.
After meeting with her friend, An Songyu quickly obtained the information she wanted from another person who was with her.
To confirm, An Songyu even went to the vicinity to observe carefully.
However, due to the limited time available, it was not possible to investigate further.
The knowledge we have is also limited.
However, according to Bi Lizhu.
For them now, the price isn't actually the most important thing.
Rather, it was simply a matter of whether the price was worth it in her mind.
With that thought in mind, An Songyu stopped focusing on the process.
After contacting the homeowner again.
An Songyu first went to the area around the shop and observed it more carefully.
However, this time, she mainly observed only two points.
One point is the location of the store.
Another point is the current condition of the shop's building.
One reason is to prepare for the reconstruction of the store.
Another reason... is to negotiate the price.
However, once the two sat down, An Songyu heard the price and stood up without saying a word.
"Hey, wait a minute, you pretty lady, you should at least be sincere if you want to buy a shop!"
"Sincerity? How can I be sincere?" An Songyu's footsteps remained on the ground as she tried to leave.
She turned around and looked at the homeowner with a cold smile:
"You're asking for 300,000 right off the bat. How can I possibly be sincere enough to continue this discussion?"
"Beautiful lady, you're mistaken!" The landlord seemed confident, just as An Songyu had predicted that day:
"Didn't you say last time you came that the rent for my shop is 1,000 a month, which would amount to about 15,000 a year?"
"This 300,000... can be earned back in about 20 years."
"Twenty years from now, my shop will still be making money!"
"Besides, look at my location, who knows how much this shop will become in the future!"
“Then there’s really no room for negotiation!” An Songyu nodded firmly, turning around as she spoke:
"Anyway, the largest square in our Rongdi area is almost completed."
"With this 300,000, I don't believe I can't buy a shop anywhere."
The homeowner's confident smile froze.
As he stood up, he said resentfully, "But are those shops over there as big as mine?"
