After Qian Qing returned to the oil field, she did not go out for several days. When she went out, she happened to encounter the interview of Huazhen Tobacco and Liquor by the city TV station. For a while, few people paid attention to why she went to the provincial capital for so long.

Qian Qing was so happy that no one knew about it. All the neighbors in the compound were paid only a few dozen yuan a month. Even if she didn't like to show off as much as Wan Zhenzhen, how could she live if everyone knew the progress of her business?

This one comes to say a few sour words, that one comes to complain about borrowing money, she and Zhou Hao are exhausted from dealing with all these things all day long.

The fact that Huazhen Tobacco and Liquor was so powerful was not a bad thing for her. All eyes were on Wang Hua's family, so naturally no one paid attention to her.

Speaking of Wang Hua, he got angry after dragging Wan Zhenzhen back home.

His family was indeed doing well during this period. The goods brought from Ah Zhen were in great demand, not to mention Y City, even the provincial capital might not have them. The people who came to buy goods were getting more and more generous, and some people even came in a small car a while ago!

There are more and more people who are self-employed, and more and more of them are rich. When their wallets are full, they want to show that they are different from others. Therefore, although Huazhen Tobacco and Liquor is not as crowded as other stores, its turnover is not small at all. Many times, Wang Hua's hands were shaking when he counted the daily turnover.

Ah Zhen told him that when rich people buy things, they don’t necessarily need to buy high-quality ones, but they must be high-end and expensive so that others feel that it is worth it when they buy it!

Wang Hua divided the goods he got into different grades. The cheapest wine cost several dozen yuan a bottle, and the middle ones cost several hundred yuan. Wang Hua did not put the best wine on display. He made precise sales and recommended the right people.

After a few months, Wang Hua counted the money and found that he had earned hundreds of thousands of yuan!

With the money, Wang Hua couldn't help but relax a little. He thought about how anxious he was at this time last year, worrying all day long whether Zhou Hao was going to kill him. In the end, he was forced to resign by Zhou Hao.

Looking at this year, he has become a millionaire with a bulging pocket!

Although Wang Hua felt a little discouraged when he thought that Zhou Hao's wife should have been a millionaire long ago, he changed his mind and realized that Zhou Hao was a gigolo who relied on his wife's hard work to make money. If he only counted himself, wouldn't he only have a salary of a few dozen yuan a month?

The realization that Zhou Hao had been left behind made Wang Hua very excited, and he also began to like Wan Zhenzhen a little better.

As the Chinese New Year was approaching, Wang Hua also left some money for his family, asking Wan Zhenzhen to help them buy things for the New Year. Last year, his family had just quit their job, and they had a boring New Year, which also made the neighbors laugh at them. This year, he was determined to live a prosperous life and let everyone around him know that he, Wang Hua, made the right decision to go into the adult entertainment industry!

This was the first time in Wan Zhenzhen's life that she had so much money at her disposal. She happily went out and bought herself a mink coat.

A mink coat is not cheap, and it made Wang Hua's eyes turn red.

This time, Wan Zhenzhen embarrassed herself in front of the TV staff, and Wang Hua's anger, which had been accumulating for some time, finally exploded.

"Wan Zhenzhen, are you sick? Will you be suffocated to death if you don't talk?"

Wan Zhenzhen had a son, which was a completely different development from her previous life when she had a daughter. It made her have great confidence in her life. When she heard Wang Hua's accusation, she subconsciously retorted.

"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me? What's wrong with what I said? Wang Hua, it was my idea for you to be on the show! Why can't I show my face?"

Wan Zhenzhen is not stupid. She is on TV now. If she, the legitimate wife, doesn't show up, what will happen if others think Wang Hua is a rich bachelor?

Wang Hua's eyes were sinister: "You just opened your mouth, made connections, gave gifts, and took care of people. What can you show for it? I asked you to run a store for me, but you are not as good as the 17 or 18-year-old girl in the store..."

This was really a hornet's nest. Wan Zhenzhen caught Wang Hua's words and started to curse: "What a good you, you just looked down on me when I just had some money, and you also looked down on the 17 or 18-year-old girl in the store, Wang Hua, you beast! You already have a son and you still look at others. You went out to buy goods for half a year, and I complained about you, didn't you? Is this how you treat me?"

What followed was a string of curses in a crying tone. Wang Hua's eyelids twitched wildly and he slammed the door and walked out.

What's the point of living this miserable life!

Wan Zhenzhen wiped her tears and thought bitterly, all the girls aged 17 or 18 in the store would be closed when she arrived in a few days!

She had suffered so much injustice and contempt, but now she had just gotten along with Wang Hua, and they had a son. Wang Hua was her hope for life. How could she be kidnapped by a woman who showed up halfway?

Wang Hua ran out of the tube building angrily and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. These were cigarettes specially prepared for him by Ah Zhen. She said they were good cigarettes imported from abroad, expensive and in small quantities. She told him not to sell them but to smoke them himself.

Thinking of Ah Zhen, who was gentle as water and often cared about him and sent him things, Wang Hua was extremely angry.

How can women in the world be so polarized! One is Wan Zhenzhen, who is good at everything but feels good about herself, and the other is Ah Zhen, who lends a hand to him in times of crisis and helps him achieve his career.

Even a fool knows who to choose!

Wang Hua finished the cigarette in his hand and decided to book a ticket to the south.

The last time I went to see Ah Zhen was last month. I talked to Wan Zhenzhen about purchasing goods. This time...

Just say that you are going to discuss business with a partner.

Anyway, that idiot Wan Zhenzhen doesn’t know whether what he said is true or false.

****

Starting from December, Qian Yu was extremely busy. Not only did he have to take care of the vermicelli factory, but he also had to consider how to sell the pork at the pig farm.

Qian Qing gave her sister an idea: "Make it into bacon and smoked meat, and ask your uncles' restaurants if they want it. If all else fails, we still have our mom's cooking skills, so we can try a few recipes."

Qian Yu thought about it according to the girl's suggestion, but still shook his head: "My uncles want fresh pork, and at most they can use one or two pigs. Every family can make bacon and smoked meat, but it won't sell well, and it will also delay manpower."

"...I'm going to make sausage and salami. I'll get two machines and seal them up so they can be eaten for half a year without going bad. For the rest, I'll ask my mom for recipes and process the cooked sausages into small packages, which I'll also seal up and sell."

Qian Qing didn't know whether her brain had been idle for too long recently, so it was working much slower than before: "Huh?"

Qian Yu: "I plan to open a direct-sale store. When the time comes, the store will sell packaged items like this. I will also dry the mushrooms and fungus I grow and package them separately. I can also put vermicelli in the store and sell it together. It will be a grocery store."

Qian Yu had been thinking about this since Wen Lan helped her integrate several factories and put them under the grocery company. Qian Qing was right. If she was just a wholesaler, the buyers would not advertise for her. It would be better to open her own store and do both wholesale and direct sales.

Qian Qing racked her brains and felt that what her sister said was right.

"Where is the direct-sale store?"

"The first and second stores should be opened together, in Y City and the provincial capital."

Qian Qing was now excited: "Then there is no need to rent. We have a ready-made house. Two stores near the Xiaodongmen of Wutong University have closed down this year. You can go pick a store. Also, in the provincial capital, I have a small building and three stores. You can go and see where you want to put it."

Qian Yu: ...

"When did you buy another building?"

Qian Qing chuckled: "Actually, I also own a factory."

Qian Yu smiled helplessly. She was still far behind Qian Qing in terms of business. She was still struggling in the city, while Qian Qing had already established a foothold in the provincial capital.

On the other hand, Qian Qing also had some doubts about her sister's business: "If you open two stores at the same time, will you be able to supply the goods?"

Last year, the vermicelli sales were crazy, and her sister didn't save any inventory during the expansion of the scale and manpower. This year is only three months away, how much production can her sister's vermicelli factory achieve?

Speaking of this, Qian Yu's smile faded a little.

"Don't worry, we will probably be able to store a lot of goods this year."

Just as she expected last year, several nearby villages and towns have started making vermicelli this year, especially Liujia Village where she lives and Huangjia Village.

Last year, her vermicelli factory shipped so much that it blocked a road, which made many people jealous. This year, even before November, the surrounding villages have started to move.

Some people took out loans, some borrowed from others, and some families didn't sell a single pound of sweet potatoes this year, and kept them all to make vermicelli. It's not even November yet, and the price of sweet potatoes has doubled compared to last year, so the cost has increased a lot, and they have to go out of town to buy them.

In December, after the Qianyu Vermicelli Factory opened, various incidents occurred frequently.

They blocked the road outside her vermicelli factory to prevent buyers from coming in, and some people even deliberately cut the power lines outside her vermicelli factory...

Qian Yu found it absurd. Could it be that these people thought that if they suppressed her vermicelli factory, their business would be as good as hers last year?

"The vermicelli market is actually very large. The reason you were in short supply last year was because you were the only one doing the business. In fact, even if you add a few surrounding villages this year, your business will not be affected. After all, you have so much to buy, and the more you do, the more famous you will be, and the more people will come to buy..."

Qian Qing said this to her sister, and in her heart she also lamented the short-sightedness of these people.

Qian Yu nodded: "That's what I said. Even if I expand the scale of my vermicelli factory, how much can I produce? Vermicelli is in great demand, and the bulk of the sales are made before the Chinese New Year. There is no need to worry about sales, so everyone should control the quality of their own vermicelli and build up a reputation. Make a name for themselves as the hometown of vermicelli. In the future, won't we be able to make money every year?"

But it was useless. The small workshops that had invested heavily were worried that their vermicelli would be sold out if the buyers bought the goods from Qianyu Vermicelli Factory. They wished that Qianyu Vermicelli Factory would go bankrupt tomorrow, and the vermicelli business would be taken over by the surrounding villages.

Qian Qing asked with some concern: "Did the village cadres in Liujia Village say anything?"

The farmers' actions are no big deal, but it would be troublesome if the village cadres had ulterior motives.

"Liu Ertao was also there, and she didn't say anything for a while."

It was also thanks to her decisive decision to choose Liu Ertao as her partner last year, otherwise it would be hard to say whether her vermicelli factory could continue to operate this year. Liu Ertao worked even harder this year. The four of them, along with their new daughter-in-law, kept an eye on the vermicelli factory, and nothing serious happened.

"I simply don't ship out products now. I only take orders. If someone places an order in advance, I'll use a tractor to deliver it to the destination. The rest are stored in the warehouse and will be sold slowly after the store opens."

She was also unwilling to argue with these people. To put it bluntly, these people had small capital and were feeling anxious. Once they made some money this year and realized how big this market was, they would not be so short-sighted.

However, Qian Yu was not stupid. She had realized the disadvantages of opening a factory in the countryside. It would be too easy for the village to restrict her with a factory like this. For example, if something went wrong, the village would probably still stand on the side of those people.

"I plan to open a branch factory in the city."

The location has been selected. Qian Yu plans to do the same as last year, enclose a piece of land, build a wall, and build a thatched shed inside. She has sufficient funds and can afford the investment. Eggs cannot be placed in the same basket, isn't it just vermicelli? The technical content is almost zero, so it doesn't matter where it is produced, right?

If Liujia Village was doing well, she would keep the factory open. If there was trouble, she would close the factory and keep the land for appreciation. Anyway, her sister said that the land was close to Meihua Town and close to the main road, so she could make a profit if she left it alone.

Qian Qing was already used to her sister's habit of opening a factory: "Then open it. There's still enough time anyway."

“I’m planning to buy another car.”

Qian Qing counted her sister's money and said, "It's not enough to buy a car. Do you want me to lend you some?"

Cars are very expensive nowadays. She had considered buying one some time ago, but she felt bad after looking at it from left to right.

"If it's enough, I'll buy a used truck. Not a sedan."

The car was so expensive and she had no use for it, so she planned to buy a truck to transport the sweet potatoes and vermicelli.

Qian Qing was excited: "When are you going to look at the car? I want to go too!"

Although it is not a sedan, she also wants to buy a few trucks. You know, if you want to ship goods to the provincial capital now, you have to look for cars at the bus station every time, which is not only troublesome but also expensive.

Qian Yu calculated the time: "The day after tomorrow, in the city."

After the two sisters finished chatting about business, Qian Yu left in a hurry. She was very busy during this period, running around a lot and walking with the wind.

Qian Qing lay on the recliner in the sun for a while and felt sleepy again.

She didn't know what was going on during this period. She couldn't suppress her sleepiness at all. Zhou Hao would wake her up almost every day when he got home from get off work, thinking that she would not be sleepy at night if she had slept enough during the day. But who knew that she could still sleep after dinner.

In a daze, Qian Qing suddenly thought of something and sat up.

She knew her own body very well. Although she had felt sleepy in winter in previous years, this had never happened before.

...Could it be...

Qian Qing was unsure and walked around the room twice.

Do you want to go to the hospital now?

Do you want to tell Zhou Hao?

She had heard that pregnancy causes nausea, so why didn’t she have this symptom?

Or why not just stop talking?

…

By mid-afternoon, Qian Qing still hadn't made up her mind.

It was not until around six or seven in the afternoon, when Zhou Hao was about to get off work, that Qian's mother suddenly came over crying.

"Qingqing! Something happened to your sister!"
