Chapter 71 Making Empty Promises



"Little sister, tell me, tell me! I want to hear it!"

The second brother urged her on, his humble and eager-to-learn expression making Ruan Meng laugh.

The third brother, feigning maturity, gestured with his hand and said, "Sister, don't worry, your brothers will listen to you!"

Seeing that her sister-in-law nodded, Ruan Mengcai smiled and said:

"If we follow the plan we just discussed, in the future, if we need seafood, we only need to contact the village chief's family..."

“I suggest that the person be the second brother. The second brother is meticulous, patient, and helpful. This task does not require much effort, but it must be done with great enthusiasm so that he will not complain.”

“But reconciliation and acceptance are not my second brother’s strengths, so I suggested that my sister-in-law take on the responsibility.”

“Third Brother likes to eat, so I will take him along to run some food-related businesses in the future, if he is willing.”

"I also hope that Third Brother can take charge on his own as soon as possible."

"As for the Song family, they are good at calculations, quick-witted, and have fast reactions."

"We should learn from each other's strengths and make up for our weaknesses."

“Previously, we had to make trips to the city to do business. So far, we’ve been cooperating with Xinglintang on medicinal herbs, but the volume is small, so we won’t talk about it for now.”

"Currently, the seafood business is the focus. As we move in and out more, there will be more and more accounting and cost calculations to do."

“If all of this is managed by my sister-in-law, it will be too much of a burden. I have an idea. Once the business is going well, I’ll talk to Manager Yu. If the two brothers from the Song family agree, we can send them to He’s Restaurant to learn a thing or two.”

“We’re willing to pay their monthly fees. Let them familiarize themselves with the city beforehand so they can plan for expanding their business in the future.”

"We can't work for others our whole lives, can we?"

The second and third sons were thrilled to hear this.

From what my younger sister is saying, you seem to be considering starting your own business in the future? Not just supplying seafood?

They thought about it and realized it was true!

The food my sister makes tastes so much better than anything I've ever had in the city, not just in the capital, but also in the city itself!

They have talent and manpower, so why can't they?!

Thinking about this, I felt even more that my younger sister's suggestion was very farsighted.

They were completely unaware of the situation in the city from the various factions.

If they want to expand their business in the future, or even become independent, they naturally cannot rely entirely on the He Family Restaurant.

The eldest brother suddenly laughed and said, "You've made arrangements for everyone else, but not for your eldest brother. Why is that?"

Ruan Meng smiled faintly and replied, "How could that be?"

"Big brother, you will always be our pillar! And our soul!"

The older brother gently flicked Ruan Meng's finger.

Ruan Meng didn't dodge the question, and explained with a smile, "It seems like we're the ones charging ahead, but our elder brother has always been there to keep things under control for us."

"When it comes to communicating with the village chief, discussing matters with the Song and Fan families, isn't it always the eldest brother who steps in?"

“Even if we mean well, we can’t always know when to stop. Sometimes we might offend someone without even realizing it. But with our elder brother around, we feel at ease.”

"Right now, we're just getting started, but the villagers seem to see hope..."

"As the business gradually expands, relationships with surrounding villages, and even other forces in the city, the villages, and the government, etc..."

"The real headaches are yet to come. So, big brother, you need to take good care of your health and protect us."

Ruan Meng looked at her elder brother and said solemnly, "Brother, I had a dream. In the dream, there was a scholar with great talent who, like us, was also banished to a remote island."

"The people on the island were uncouth and lived in poverty their whole lives. But he built an academy on the island by himself, and cultivated the first scholar who passed the imperial examination from the island, changing the lives of his students."

"We provide livelihoods for the villagers so that they have the resources to take care of and raise their children well."

"But to completely change poverty, we must also attach importance to education."

"It's not a path you have to take; the official career path is not easy."

"But if one can learn to read and write, one can find a livelihood in the city or inland, which is better than struggling to survive in the storm."

"And the eldest brother is their hope."

"What I want to do is make more money, a lot of money, so that my brother's talents can be realized."

Suddenly, her sister-in-law's eyes reddened.
