Wen Zhichao feels that if there is no one he trusts, it is better to do it himself, even if it is hard, than to seek help from someone he does not trust.
The first person to come was a man named Wei Xiangqian. He was also strong, a little darker than Awang, and had a quick mind, but he just didn't know how to do things. He was haphazard and hadn't made any achievements. So, he had no other choice but to come to Wen Zhichao. When he arrived in Guangzhou, he had no money at all.
Although there was a place to live at home, Wen Zhichao didn't feel comfortable letting them live there. One reason was that it would be inconvenient because he had a wife and children there. Another reason was that Grandma Liu and Grandpa An liked quiet people, and it wouldn't be nice for him to always bring strangers back home. So he let them live in the factory. After all, the factory was big, and it was convenient for a grown man like him to go out whenever he wanted and do whatever he wanted.
Wen Zhichao also explained the situation, and Wei Xiangqian felt embarrassed to have any complaints. He felt that the other party had taken him in, provided him with food to eat, a place to live, and work to do, so how could he be dissatisfied?
After Wei Xiangqian came, Wen Zhichao asked him to follow Awang, who was in charge of the workers in the factory. Haisheng was in charge of the warehouse and was in charge of all matters related to shipping and warehousing. As for the money, Wen Zhichao managed it himself.
After settling his brother, Wen Zhichao thought about his sister-in-law and brother-in-law's business and called them to check. It seemed like their business was pretty good, and their summer clothes were quite popular. Although some girls thought they were too trendy, many of them were delighted. "These clothes are from Guangzhou, and they're even better than those from Shanghai!" And crucially, the prices are not expensive!
Xia Ruzheng was more concerned about his sister's adaptation. Xia Ruqian, on the other hand, was a natural at business, handling customers with ease. She was just a little worried about her child. She said that even though her parents-in-law were looking after her, she missed her son, and her parents-in-law were unwilling to discipline him. The child was like a monkey without a tiger, running around everywhere. Furthermore, Xia Ruqian's mother-in-law, believing that child abductions were far more common in the city than in the countryside, refused to let Xia Ruqian take her grandson with her.
Xia Ruzheng knew Xia Ruqian's mother-in-law, a figure even more powerful than his own. He told her it would be best if she took the child. The child was about two years older than the baby, and with school approaching, she couldn't afford to let him mess around. Xia Ruqian understood Xia Ruzheng's pain; sending a child to school was a real hassle.
"It seems that Binbin still has to go to school at home. I have asked the schools here, but it's too troublesome." The main reason is that the policies in the provincial capital are slower than those in the coastal areas.
"Then just make up your own mind." Xia Ruzheng couldn't help but sigh after hanging up the phone. Although there were no big problems with his sister's business, there were problems with his nephew again.
Now Wen Zhichao is also trying to transfer his household registration, but due to policy reasons, it is very troublesome. Not only does it cost money, but he also has to deal with various procedures and inspections. You know, in the past, the policy was to tie farmers to the land and make them farm honestly. Otherwise, the labor force would be lost quickly, and there would be no one to farm the fields, which would lead to famine.
The baby is very well-behaved. Apart from catching a cold sometimes, she basically has no problems. Xia Ruzheng feels very comfortable taking care of her. In fact, when the baby is a little older, she can be sent to a nursery, but Xia Ruzheng is reluctant to do so. His daughter has grown up in the blink of an eye, and he is reluctant to let her stay by his side.
Grandma Liu had nothing to do, so she taught the baby to sing and recognize words from time to time. Grandpa An also liked to hold the baby and read poems. The baby was well influenced by this and became a little talented girl.
Xia Ruzheng wanted to expand the shop a bit, but he couldn't expand to the left or right. What about the second floor? It seemed that the second floor was rented out.
When Wen Zhichao heard that his wife had an idea, he of course went to help inquire. After inquiring, he found out that the people living on the second floor had just checked out and moved out a month ago. They were really lucky. But would the landlord agree to connect the first and second floors?
As expected, the landlord disagreed.
"How about we buy it?"
The garment factory business is good now. Although I haven't made back my investment yet, I have some extra money now, so it shouldn't be difficult to buy another floor.
"If I buy it, what if the landlord of the storefront doesn't agree?"
This is indeed a problem, but everything is possible. Wen Zhichao went to ask again, and the landlord was indeed not happy. Anyone with a little vision would not be willing to sell the hen that lays golden eggs.
This matter dragged on until autumn. Unexpectedly, something happened in the landlord's family because he injured someone when he was building a house in his hometown. He needed money for compensation, otherwise the other party would sue him. There was no way but to accept his bad luck and reluctantly sell the storefront.
The landlord on the second floor didn't have any objections. In fact, this house had been sold many times. They bought it at the beginning and now they are selling it at a higher price, so they can be considered to have made a profit.
Buying both floors at once was a big deal, but for the sake of his wife, Wen Zhichao felt it was worth it.
Xia Ruzheng was quite touched. Her restaurant was profitable, but most people didn't have the courage to transform it so much!
We signed the contract, paid the house price, and got the property certificate. Because we were not from Guangdong, it took a lot of trouble, but we finally got it done. We started renovating the house in the winter, and by next year, it will be a two-story restaurant.
After a busy year, Xia Ruzheng closed the hotel half a month in advance because it had to be renovated at the end of the year. He posted a notice and went home to take care of the accounts with his children.
This year, the biggest source of income, of course, comes from the garment factory. Now, several department stores purchase goods from here, and the monthly shipment volume reaches two to three thousand pieces. I make a few thousand yuan every month. After deducting wages, raw material costs, rent, etc., there is still a lot of money left. However, I spent a lot of money on buying storefronts and houses this year, so I don’t have much money left.
