Chapter 177 Zhou Jianguo and Lin Shuyi are coming
Lin Shuyin said, "Yes, by the way, Sarin, I suggest that if you want to open a second store, a third store, etc. in the future, don't tell anyone else. Let's do it quietly."
This touched Saran's heart. "We are sisters after all. I think so too. It's not good to say too much."
All of it was borrowed money.
It would be hard to not lend it to her, but if I lent it to her I would feel unhappy.
Brother Shen, Sister Shen and Lin Shuyin and Shen Guannan returned the one thousand yuan they borrowed last month.
The money was just sitting there, so Lin Shuyin discussed with Shen Guannan, "Why don't we open a clothing store?"
Shen Guannan glanced at her and said, "You don't need to ask me about my wife's business. Just make the decision. Leave one thousand for the family, and you can use the rest of our money as you like."
Lin Shuyin was surprised, "You trust me so much, what if I lose all my money?"
Shen Guannan said seriously, "With your ability, no."
When his wife opens a store, she will observe the market and the environment around the store and think over it again and again before deciding to open it. Such a cautious person cannot be said to make a lot of money, but she will definitely not lose money.
In one word: stable.
Lin Shuyin, "Oh, you are praising me. I don't have any ability. I am just making trouble."
Shen Guannan smiled and said, "Don't be modest, Boss Lin. You are very good at everything you do."
"You can open a clothing store. You can open one for men and one for women."
Lin Shuyin, "I want to run a joint business. I've picked a shop that's over 200 square meters."
She bought three shops, two of which are over 100 square meters, and one is over 200 square meters. She could just open a big clothing store.
Shen Guannan, "Okay, do we have enough money? If not, I'll borrow from others."
Lin Shuyin: "That's enough."
Although the cosmetics store looks deserted, it still has a lot of customers every day and can earn two to three thousand yuan a month.
In May, the sales of Lin Shuyin's cosmetics store, excluding costs, was more than 2,500.
Moreover, her store is newly opened, and there will be more and more customers in the future.
We have to open stores one by one. Now that Lin Shuyin's cosmetics store is on track, we have started to renovate the clothing store. The renovation of the clothing store is relatively fast and it is estimated that the renovation will be completed in mid-July and the store will be open for business at the end of July.
It was summer vacation time, and when the clothing store was getting on track, she opened her third store, a tobacconist's shop.
Then buy a few more shops next year, and so on, making money and more money.
Lin Shuyin did not dream of buying a courtyard house. She wanted to buy a villa and a car, and move into a bigger house when she was forty years old.
In addition to her own needs, she also wanted to leave some assets for her daughter. Siyu was a good student, and Shen Guannan said that he was many times better than him.
Lin Shuyin also thought so. Her daughter was among the top three in the class, either first or second.
Although she is still in primary school, it is hard to tell whether she is good at studying or not, but Lin Shuyin feels that she is much better than when she was in primary school.
She was often scolded by teachers in elementary school, and those who were scolded were afraid of teachers. It was not until she entered junior high school that she began to love studying, but that was all, she only loved liberal arts.
She was thinking that if her daughter started a business in the future and became a businesswoman, she would help her save the capital. If she chose another path, the same would apply so that she would not be short of money.
In short, she must nurture and care for her child in all aspects.
In early June, Lin Shuyin hired someone to renovate the clothing store.
Selling clothes does make money, but opening a clothing factory makes even more money. Zhou Jianguo opened a clothing factory, but opening a clothing factory requires a lot of capital and energy, which she couldn't do. She still had to go to work and have a respectable job as a university teacher.
Moreover, being a teacher has winter and summer vacations, which is a nice, decent and comfortable job.
She used to be busy studying alone. Now that Sarin has retired from the army, Lin Shuyin is thinking about whether she should go out and have a look during the summer vacation.
For example, going to Haishi, she had never been to Haishi since she traveled through time.
Lin Shuyin mentioned it to Shen Guannan, "I'll take Siyu with me, and then call Sarin. What do you think about the four of us going?"
Shen Guannan shook his head, "Not very good."
Lin Shuyin: "Ah?"
"Because I can't go, wife, you don't take me with you." Shen Guannan felt a little aggrieved that he was not included in his wife's plan.
Lin Shuyin, "You have to go to the team, are you free? It will take us at least half a month to be there."
Shen Guannan, "I can ask for leave from the team. I have never been to Dahai City, and I want to go out and have a look. My annual leave for several years has been useless."
Lin Shuyin: "...then you can talk to the team."
Shen Guannan, "Yes, wife, I will talk to my superiors tomorrow."
The next day, Lin Shuyin found Salin and talked to her.
"Saren, do you want to go?"
Sarin was delighted. "Let's go, Dahai City. I want to go! I'll take Nanding with me, and you take Siyu with you. The four of us will go."
Lin Jianshe, "....where is my wife?"
I just watched his sister and his wife chatting and making plans, but he was not one of them.
Sarin glanced at him and said, "You are at work, how can you have time?"
Lin Jianshe said cautiously, "I can take a leave..."
Sarin, "Oh, don't go. When you get off work, help me look after the store or something."
Lin Shuyin cleared her throat and said, "Well, Sarin, your brother-in-law wants to go too. He talked to the team today."
Sarin, "He also goes"
Lin Shuyin nodded, "I didn't want to take him with me, but he didn't go to Guohai City last time, so he wanted to go out and take a look."
Salen glanced at Lin Jianshe and said, "Then you should ask your leaders as well."
Lin Jianshe smiled, "Sister, you are my leader."
Lin Shuyin: "Ah?"
Sarin's face turned red. Why...
"Stop talking nonsense."
Lin Jianshe: "I'll ask when I get to work tomorrow."
Lin Shuyin glanced at the two of them. Really, they were just flirting with each other.
The plan was good, but plans cannot keep up with changes.
Lin's mother called and couldn't even stay at home, let alone go to Hai City. "Jianguo and Shuyi want to go there, for tourism. They said they have never been to Beijing and want to see Tiananmen Square or something."
Zhou Jianguo and Lin Shuyi are coming to travel, and Lin's mother wants her sister to take them around.
"Mom, doesn't Shuyi take care of the children? Does Laowu drink milk powder?" Lin Shuyin asked on the phone.
Last year, Lin's father and mother came to say that Lin Shuyi was pregnant again and should have given birth by now. If she did, it would be five children.
Lin's mother said on the other end of the phone, "She fell and was not born."
"I will definitely write to you when the baby comes."
"It fell off. Why?"
"I don't know why, but I didn't keep the baby. The doctor said the embryo was bad or something, but I don't understand. Four children is enough. Why have so many? It's not the same as before."
Lin's mother thinks that there is no need to have so many children, especially since society is different now. When a man has some money, he will find another woman. If you have too many children, you can't get a divorce.
You can't control it, it's so annoying.
"It's good for you to have only one child."
Among the three daughters, Lin's mother likes the second daughter the most. She feels that this daughter is particularly wise and has become a university teacher, which makes her proud.
Lin Shuyin said, "Okay, I understand, Mom. How soon will they arrive? Have they set off yet?"
"No, the train is tomorrow morning and will arrive the day after tomorrow afternoon."
After chatting for a few more sentences, she hung up the phone with Lin's mother. Before hanging up, Lin's mother asked if she would come back for the New Year. Lin Shuyin said, "Let's see if Guannan is free."
Generally speaking, bringing up Shen Guannan would work perfectly in this situation. Just say that Shen Guannan is not available or that the troops are busy, and no one will question it.
Lin Shuyin didn't want to go back. There was no other reason. It was too far, and it was too troublesome to go back and forth. She was just lazy.
Wait another two years, or save another seven or eight years before going back.
Shen Guannan is about to have a vacation, and so is Lin Jianshe.
I had originally agreed with the children to go on a trip to Hai City, but now we can’t go. The two kids are very disappointed and lost, not to mention Lin Shuyin, who is also a little disappointed.
Shen Guannan comforted her, "Wife, we can go there during the winter vacation."
Lin Shuyin, "It's cold in winter, I don't want to go out."
Cats are more comfortable at home in winter.
Shen Guannan, "Then we can only wait until next summer."
Lin Shuyin sighed, "Next summer, then next summer."
Before leaving, Zhou Jianguo and Lin Shuyi called Lin Shuyin and told her the specific departure time and when they would arrive in the capital.
Lin Shuyin went to the train station to pick them up at the time they agreed. She got up at six in the morning, and the train arrived at around seven.
After waiting for a while, she saw Lin Shuyi, Zhou Jianguo... and another person in the crowd. The three of them came together. Lin Shuyin looked for a long time but couldn't tell who they were until the three of them came closer.
After meeting her, Lin Shuyi introduced her to him, and he finally knew who she was. "Second sister, this is our cousin Hongmin, don't you recognize her?"
Lin Shuyin laughed, "I can't recognize her. She is very different from when she was a child. If you two weren't here, I definitely wouldn't be able to recognize her."
"She was still a little girl ten years ago, but now she has grown into such a pretty girl!" Lin Shuyin praised.
She is now evolving towards the direction of the "aunties", bragging to everyone she meets. This is mainly because she is getting old enough. In a few years, she will probably love to fiddle with those flowers and plants.
Zhang Hongmin smiled shyly, "Sister Shuyin, have I changed that much?"
Lin Shuyin smiled, "Oh, the change is huge, it's getting better and better."
Zhang Hongmin was very happy to be praised, and Zhou Jianguo also praised her.
"Hongmin is the prettiest girl in our factory. Many male colleagues like her."
Lin Shuyi, "This girl has high standards and she doesn't like anyone."
Lin Shuyin naturally put her arm around Zhang Hongmin's shoulders.
"It's normal to have high standards. After all, we are college students and we need to find a better partner."
I don’t know what Lin Shuyi was thinking. The couple went out for a trip without their children, but brought their cousin along.
If a couple or a married couple goes out to travel or date, if you don't take the child with you, then don't take anyone else with you, because the child is such a big light bulb.
As they walked and talked, Lin Shuyin asked with a smile, "What kind of boys does Hongmin like?"
Zhang Hongmin glanced at Zhou Jianguo subconsciously and whispered, "Cousin, I don't know yet."
Lin Shuyin, "It's ok, we'll look for it slowly."
"Second sister, what is your brother-in-law doing?" Lin Shuyi asked.
Lin Shuyin: "What can he do? He is in the army."
Lin Shuyi said, "Where are my second brother and his wife?"
"Your second brother is working, and your second sister-in-law opened a clothing store and is looking after the store."
Lin Shuyi was surprised, "My second sister-in-law has retired from the army"
Lin Shuyin nodded, "Yes, the art troupe is too tiring. They perform all year long. Your second sister-in-law has also been in the art troupe for more than ten years. It's time to change jobs."
Zhou Jianguo: "It's good to open your own shop. Even though being a self-employed person is not respectable, the money you make every month is dozens of times more than what you make in a company."
Lin Shuyin: “Yes.”
Lin Shuyi, "Sister, why don't you open a store? If you don't have money, I can lend it to you."
Lin Shuyin glanced at her and said, "I opened a cosmetics store."
"Oh, how is the cosmetics store business?" Lin Shuyi asked curiously.
Lin Shuyin: "It's OK. I won't lose anything at all."
"How about you? How many stores do you have?"
Lin Shuyi said, "Why should I open a store? I don't have time to open a store. I stay at home to take care of the kids. He makes money. One earner in our family is enough."
Considering that she had just said she would lend him money, Lin Shuyin wanted to say a few more words, "Your children are all so old now. They can go to primary school or kindergarten. They won't take up any of your time."
"Besides, we have grandma."
"You can study accounting and then work as an accountant in your factory."
Lin Shuyin said this, and Lin Shuyi smiled, "Second sister, which boss lady have you seen working?"
Lin Shuyin: ".......yes."
She is such a jerk. Why does she say that?
"Second sister, bosses don't have to do the work themselves. They hire people to do the work. Look, I just hired a college student."
I said this to Lin Shuyin in secret.
In fact, Lin Shuyi thinks, what's the use of going to college? You still have to work. Zhang Hongmin earns 200 yuan a month, and her husband has never been to college, but he earns tens of thousands a month, even hundreds of thousands!
Which college student can earn so much money in a month?
Lin Shuyin smiled, "You are right."
Lin Shuyi also smiled, "Second sister, I heard from mom that you have been promoted to the dean of the university department. Congratulations."
"Deputy, deputy."
Lin Shuyi covered her mouth and laughed, "You are already a deputy, how far are you from being a director? Second sister, you will be able to sit in the position of director in less than two years."
Lin Shuyin liked to hear this, and she said, "Thank you for your good wishes, sister."
Lin Shuyi, "Did my brother-in-law get promoted? Did he become a division commander or a corps commander?"
Lin Shuyin was speechless. "You think the military is just a game? Getting promoted is like eating and drinking water. It's all earned through military merit."
Shen Guannan has moved up very fast. He is already a brigade staff officer, and it has only been five years since his last promotion. The higher you move up, the harder it is.
Lin Shuyi, "Oh, I don't know. I just think my brother-in-law has been in the position of staff officer for too long and should be promoted."
Lin Shuyin, "Shuyi, I still think it would be better for you to go to night school to improve your academic qualifications."
After attending night school, you shouldn't be able to talk like this...
"Second sister, I have a high level of education. I graduated from high school. Don't look down on me just because you went to college."
Lin Shuyi was a little angry. Her second sister had been talking about this matter since she got off the car. One moment she wanted her to take the accounting exam, the next she wanted her to go to night school.
Only people with a diploma from elementary school would go to night school. She already has a diploma from high school, so why would she go?
Besides, what good would it do to improve her education? She doesn't have to go out to work.
