She knew that the Wu family was a rare red capitalist family. Their ancestors were all loyal martyrs. Later, during the war, they donated most of their property. The men in the family also fought bravely against the enemy. In the end, only Wu Dayong was left.
Although the Wu family still appears to be a wealthy merchant family with a certain economic status, in reality, most of the Wu family's factories have now been turned into state-owned enterprises. They have not yet developed new projects, so sooner or later they will face resource depletion and difficulties. Without new industries to support them, the Wu family will gradually lose its wealth and influence.
However, this situation may not be so bad for Wu Dayong. He does not need too much money to make a living. Instead, he pays more attention to the pursuit of spiritual level.
He enjoys activities such as reading, playing chess and fishing, which do not require a large amount of capital investment. So even if the Wu family lost most of their wealth, it would not have much impact on him.
Furthermore, due to a wound he sustained in battle early in life, he was diagnosed by the hospital as unable to have children. He no longer had to worry about his family's future or inheritance. He could focus on his hobbies and enjoy life's pleasures. This simple lifestyle brought him contentment and peace.
But now this family of loyal warriors is being used as a stepping stone for the success of a treacherous man like the male protagonist. I'm afraid that if the Wu family finds out, they will have to rise up and rebel.
However, Liu Yanran is completely different from the Wu family. She understands the course of history, knows exactly when to take action, and can accurately grasp the timing.
In addition, she had no shortage of start-up capital, and her family was trustworthy. In comparison, the Wu family was just a bare-bones force, and could not compare. Although the current Wu family was a prominent family, who could guarantee that the Liu family would not become one in the future?
Lin Ye seemed to be a man of great adaptability. If Liu Yanran hadn't interfered, his future would have been unpredictable. However, regarding Tang Xiaoxiao, Liu Yanran could only lament that she might have saved the author's life, allowing her to continue to develop so smoothly.
This character setting and plot development made Liu Yanran feel somewhat helpless. She wondered if the plot would be further repaired later. In order to avoid being a stepping stone for this adulterous couple, their Liu family must become the upper class, making it impossible for the hero and heroine to shake. Whoever wants to be cannon fodder can do so.
Although Liu Yanran has a lot of money, there are too many wealthy people in Beijing. During those ten years, many people hid their talents, and some chose to go to Hong Kong or abroad. With the reform and opening up in recent years, many people are trying to come back, so having money is still not as good as having power.
There must be someone at the center of power in their family. That person can be the eldest brother or the second brother. The third sister, the fourth brother and she will be responsible for expanding the business territory. From now on, their Liu family will have money and power.
Liu Yanran decided to hold a family meeting before everyone returned home. She was ambitious and hoped that her family would not hold her back.
So after dinner, Liu Yanran called her eldest brother, second brother, third sister and fourth brother to her house, and prepared to have a good chat with the five siblings about their future plans.
Liu Yanran poured a cup of hot tea for the brothers and sisters, then got straight to the point. "Do you have any plans for your future?"
The eldest brother, Liu Guoqiang, wasn't surprised. Ever since his younger sister asked them a few days ago if they wanted to buy property in Beijing, he knew she had already made plans. She'd probably already thought about everything the boys wouldn't dare consider. "What do you want us to do?" he asked instead of answering.
"Brother, second brother, are you going to stay in the army until you retire?" There won't be so many wars in the future, so most officers will be transferred to civilian jobs by then. But with so many people, how do you know that the place you are assigned to is where you want to go? It's better to make plans early.
"Of course not," said the second brother, Liu Guodong. They had seen countless lives taken in an instant on the battlefield, but he had actually had enough of this life that made his family live in fear. Every time his wife touched her scars and cried, he felt heartbroken. But they were not born in peacetime. Defending the country was every man's duty. How could he protect his family if he couldn't protect the whole nation?
"In that case, why don't we try other avenues?" Liu Yanran looked at her two brothers with a determined gaze. "Brother, others may not understand, but someone in your position must understand. With your military achievements, you could definitely move up to a higher position, but your age and experience aren't enough. However, if you take the initiative to transfer to another department, there's plenty of room for advancement."
After hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought and had to admit that what Liu Yanran said made sense.
During those years, people from all walks of life were affected. However, the military region was always in need, so not many people were affected. The positions were all fixed, and there was only one person for each position. No one could move up unless they stepped down.
But it is different in the political arena. Many people have been demoted, some have died in the place where they were demoted, and some are no longer able to stay in their original positions due to age and health, and have already retired. Therefore, they are all looking for suitable people. With their military merits, if they voluntarily transfer to civilian jobs, they have a good chance of being added to these positions.
The eldest brother, Liu Guoqiang, nodded and said, "Yanran, your idea is very far-sighted. But now that the college entrance examination has been restored, there are also academic requirements for officials. Your second brother and I only graduated from junior high school."
The second brother Liu Guodong continued, "That's right. Besides, we are used to being soldiers, so we may not be able to adapt to the outside world."
"It's urgent to learn new knowledge and master new skills." Liu Yanran added, "Times are advancing, and we can't stand still. Big Brother and Second Brother really need to supplement their knowledge reserves."
