Jiang Xiaocai looked at his family members around him, listening to their words of comfort and encouragement. A warm feeling welled up in his heart, and his originally cold and desperate heart gradually warmed up. He reached out to wipe the tears from his face, looked up at his grandmother, and asked, "Grandma, what do you think I should do now?"
Su Jinli pondered for a moment and slowly said, "How about this? Take all that low-quality candy to your Aunt Xiaohuang's bun shop and let her see if she can come up with a way to recycle it. As for the debts you owe, go work at the bun shop to pay them off, and learn how to run a business from your aunt. Gaining experience through practice is much better than trying to figure it out on your own."
Jiang Yan added, "Also, you can't neglect your studies. You need to study hard. You can't do business without knowledge. Only with knowledge can you make your business bigger and stronger."
Jiang Xiaocai nodded vigorously and said, "Yes! Grandma, I understand! I will definitely work hard!"
Thus, Jiang Xiaocai's ambitious plan to "monopolize the sugar industry" ended in failure. Helplessly, he hired several trucks and hauled a warehouse full of low-quality sugar to Jiang Xiaohuang's bun shop. Standing at the shop door, Jiang Xiaohuang frowned at the blackened sugar that emitted a strange smell.
"Xiaocai, are you sure this candy is still edible?" Jiang Xiaohuang asked doubtfully.
Jiang Xiaocai's face flushed all the way to his ears. He lowered his head in shame and stammered, "Auntie, I was wrong... I really wanted to make money too much at the time, so I got cheated..."
Jiang Xiaohuang looked at her nephew's pitiful appearance and couldn't help but sigh. She said, "Forget it. Since you are my nephew, I will help you think of a solution." As she spoke, she fell into deep thought. After a while, Jiang Xiaohuang's eyes lit up and she said excitedly, "I got it! We can make caramel buns. Although the color of this caramel is not good, maybe the buns made from it will taste good."
So, thanks to Jiang Xiaohuang's meticulous research, the bun shop launched a brand new product—caramel buns. Initially, customers were skeptical of the dark, dark buns. However, once they took a bite, they were pleasantly surprised. Despite their unassuming appearance, the buns had a unique flavor: sweet but not greasy, offering a truly unique experience.
Jiang Xiaocai watched his bun shop, overflowing with customers and booming business, sparks of hope rekindled within him. He secretly resolved to work diligently there, paying off his debts while earnestly learning how to run a business. Along the way, he gradually realized that business success required more than just wishful thinking; it required a down-to-earth approach, a deep understanding of market demand, and a flexible mindset. Every step was crucial and indispensable. This experience would become a valuable life lesson, inspiring him to forge ahead in his future business ventures...
