Because she was still short 37 yuan, and Xiaohua only had 50 yuan on her, under the boss's gaze that seemed to say, "You're not trying to dine and dash, are you?" and the boss's wife's gaze that seemed to say, "You have no money and you still ordered so much," Xiaohua weakly reached out and pulled back the 50 yuan she had handed over.
He Yan found her little gestures adorable, smiled indulgently at her, took out a hundred yuan from his wallet, and handed it to the shopkeeper.
So He Yan ended up paying for the barbecue and beer, and Xiao Hua's extravagance vanished at that moment.
Xiao Hua told He Yan that she would give him the money when she got back.
But He Yan told her that she could just invite them back next time; it's only fair to return the favor!
Xiaohua finally gave him a few words: You wish!
She had solved a big problem today and was in a good mood. Since he had helped her solve the problem, she thought of treating him to a meal.
From now on, I'm afraid I won't feel like having a meal with him, no matter who invites me.
He Yan wasn't angry; he was used to her words, which rarely had a kind word for him.
He wouldn't be used to her speaking to him nicely one day; it seems everyone has a bit of a masochistic tendency!
But the fact that she took the initiative to invite him to dinner today and was willing to dine with him was already a huge honor for him.
This at least proves one thing: Xiaohua doesn't seem to be so resistant to him anymore.
This is a huge step forward in their relationship!
Through frequent interactions and contact over this period, He Yan discovered that Xiao Hua is the kind of person who is easily swayed; you have to go along with her and not go against her wishes.
Not only should you not support her in starting her own business, but you should also be able to provide her with some assistance in certain aspects.
This will gradually improve her attitude towards you.
He Yan was suddenly glad that he had changed his mind quickly and had not insisted that she find a simple and easy job after graduation, so that her life would revolve around the simple job of her husband and children.
She's not the kind of person who likes stability and comfort at all.
She has ideals and the passion to fight for them. He Yan suddenly admired this about her. There are plenty of girls who would do those stable jobs.
But what she's doing now is something that probably not one in a hundred girls would be willing to do. It's such hard work, yet she's willing to do it without complaint.
He Yan now truly looks at her with new respect.
"Xiaohua, I will do everything I can to help you solve any problems you encounter on your entrepreneurial journey!"
Over the years, He Yan has accumulated a network of connections that most people can only dream of, so what he said wasn't just boasting.
Xiaohua was well aware of the He family's and He Yan's strength. She had been searching for a school for so long without finding a suitable one, but He Yan had solved such a big problem for her with just a few words.
She understood perfectly well that if she were willing to rely on the powerful He family and He Yan, her career would surely soar to new heights.
She decided to let it go this time, as she had been struggling to find a suitable location and things had gone very wrong from the start, which greatly affected her confidence in starting her business.
He Yan's friend's brother-in-law's company was indeed planning to move, so she just considered it a lucky break and didn't ask He Yan to do her any favors.
But this can't go on like this. After all, the He family is a military and political family. It's better to keep him away from the murky waters of the business world. Although she doesn't like He Yan or the He family, the He family has a history of generations of honest and upright officials.
Let them continue to be good officials for the people and get less involved in these business matters.
“If I really encounter a big problem, I won’t come to you. I’ll solve it myself if I can, and if I can’t, then it proves that I’m not suited for business,” Xiaohua said with great self-awareness.
With the school secured, the next step is renovation. Xiaohua wants to use the last three days of her holiday to finalize the renovation details. Her plan is to start trial operations in May or June next year, recruiting a small number of students to test the waters.
There are still about ten months until May or June next year. This timeframe is neither too tight nor too loose. The school's hardware facilities should be completed as soon as possible. She needs to spend the remaining time recruiting teachers, developing teaching content, and promoting student recruitment. These are the most important things!
Ru Jiali was a local and was bored at home, so she took the initiative to go out with Xiaohua to find a renovation company. In the early 1990s, there were very few companies in this field, and the range of choices was also limited.
After two days of searching, the two finally settled on a relatively affordable renovation company. Xiaohua listed her requirements and asked the company to design and renovate according to them.
After the renovation was settled, Xiaohua treated Rujiali to dinner. Rujiali mentioned that she admired Xiaohua and also wanted to do something meaningful during her university years.
I don't want to spend these four years just going to school, then after graduation I'll follow my family's arrangements to find an easy job, marry someone of equal social standing, have children, and live a mediocre life.
Xiao Hua thought back to her past life, when Ru Jiali's daughter, Ru Shangqing, was her classmate and best friend. During their four years of university, Ru Shangqing took great care of her, and she had no way to repay this kindness.
Since that's the case, she'll repay this kindness to her mother.
Moreover, Ru Shangqing was already thinking about starting a business while he was in college. He pulled Xiaohua along, but Xiaohua was using all the time she could squeeze out to do various part-time jobs, making blood bags for her family, and being forced by her parents to support and subsidize her younger brother. She had no intention or ability to start a business.
Later, Ru Shangqing started a business with others. Xiao Hua witnessed their entrepreneurial process. Due to the different times, I couldn't benefit from any of the advantages of that era. It was very unsuccessful, and I even lost a lot of money to their families.
At the time, she thought it was a good thing she didn't join the business. Her family wouldn't even give her living expenses during college, so how could they possibly be willing to fill the huge hole of money she lost in her business?
Only someone like Ru Shangqing, whose parents are democratic and dote on her, and whose family is financially well-off, is suited to starting a business through trial and error.
Therefore, your family of origin is really important. Only a family of origin that not only doesn't drag you down but also provides a safety net will give you the capital to try and make mistakes, and make you dare to try and make mistakes!
She doesn't have such a good family background, but she will work hard to give Kang An such a family background.
Later, after many trials and errors, Ru Shangqing finally achieved some success in her business. At that time, she invited Xiaohua to join her. Although Xiaohua really wanted to work hard with her, she was too ashamed to join.
She chose to stay away when others were going through the toughest times, so there's no reason for her to be shameless enough to come and take a share of their success.
In her second life, she met Ru Shangqing's mother, Ru Jiali. She wanted to drag her along to fight for her future during the prime of her youth, as a way to make up for the regrets of her previous life.
So Xiaohua said to Jiali, "Would you like to start a business with me?"
