Guan Wenru understood instantly. She quickly helped the girl up and gently patted her shoulder. "Don't be like this, comrade. Being able to earn a living with your own hands shows that you have courage and are willing to work hard. If you sell the goods, that's the best way to repay yourself."
The girl nodded vigorously, wiped away her tears, and carried the load of goods away as if it were a precious treasure.
At this moment, a man who looked to be around thirty years old, with a weathered face but a resolute look in his eyes, also came over. He received a voucher for a night market stall.
“Boss Guan, I came back to fill in for my father, but the factory is full and I’ve been waiting. My children are young and my elderly parents are in poor health. We’re desperate for food… Your cooperative is a real lifesaver! I promise I will follow the rules and never bring shame to your reputation!”
Guan Wenru looked at him and smiled, "Brother, don't be shy. The night market has a lot of foot traffic. As long as you're willing to promote your products and provide good service, your business will be good. If you encounter any difficulties or have any ideas about the products, you can come here to let us know at any time."
The man sighed heavily, his eyes reddening as he clutched the thin certificate as if it held the hopes of his entire family.
Similar scenarios keep happening.
Almost everyone who received a basket of goods or a stall would cast a grateful glance at Guan Wenru. Some would come over to thank her, while others, not being good with words, would simply look at her deeply.
Looking at these faces that have regained their vitality and hope, Guan Wenru felt a warm glow in her heart.
She stood on a small step at the warehouse entrance, cleared her throat, and spoke in a clear voice to the young people waiting in the courtyard and those preparing to leave:
"Comrades! Receiving the cargo load means you've received an opportunity! An opportunity to earn a living and live a good life honestly through your own hard work and wisdom!"
The crowd fell silent, and everyone looked at her.
Guan Wenru: "I know that everyone is facing many difficulties and adjustments since returning to the city. But we must believe that the country is getting better and better! The policies are becoming more flexible! Look, now we are allowed to operate our own businesses and revitalize the economy, and that is our greatest hope!"
Her gaze swept over the crowd, her tone full of encouragement, "The difficulties we face are temporary! As long as we don't give up, are willing to endure hardship, and use our brains, taking one step at a time, life will definitely get better and better! Everyone has hope for the future!"
"Yes! With the boss leading us, there's hope for the future!" someone in the crowd shouted excitedly.
"Thank you, Manager Guan!"
"We will definitely do our best!"
A chorus of responses rose and fell, and the young faces were filled with long-lost enthusiasm and anticipation for the future.
Guan Wenru smiled and waved to everyone, "Alright, everyone stop huddling together and let's get going! The sooner we set up our stall, the sooner we can open for business!"
The young people smiled and agreed, carrying their goods or receipts, and scattered confidently, like seeds of hope spreading throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.
After finishing the registration, Duan Feifei walked over to Guan Wenru and looked at the dispersing crowd. She sighed, "Wenru, look at them. They are completely different from how lost they were two months ago."
Guan Wenru nodded, "Yes, what's the point of living if you have something to look forward to?"
In a car not far from the warehouse, He Yanzhi, who was waiting for Guan Wenru, had a slight, almost imperceptible curve to his cold lips, his gaze fixed on Guan Wenru.
His wife is soothing some of the wounds of this era in her own way, and lighting the way forward for many people.
She probably doesn't realize how charming and captivating she is.
