Chapter 39: A biological daughter cannot be considered a connection?
Meng Anran tried to suppress her laughter. Her parents looked so helpless that it was really funny.
In the Lu family, having more daughters is no different from having more servants. They are all outsiders who are not valued.
But for the Meng family, it means they have a new family member in the true sense, a family who can live together day and night and support each other.
This difference felt very fresh to Meng Anran.
"Hey, Anran, what... do you want to talk about?" Meng Rong had already prepared himself mentally. Even if Meng Anran said she would leave tomorrow, he could bear it.
"It's not a big deal." Meng Anran suppressed her mischievous smile and returned to seriousness. "My mom's beauty shop just opened, so it's unlikely to be profitable in the short term. Our family's financial situation is too poor. If you want to start a new business, it's difficult to raise enough start-up capital just by driving an online car-hailing service. So, do you want to consider changing jobs?"
Meng Rong was stunned for a moment. After all this time, wasn't he going to leave?
As long as Anran doesn't leave, Mengrong's tense nerves relaxed instantly. As long as Anran doesn't leave, everything else will be fine.
There was a smile in his eyes. "From what you said, do you have any good suggestions?"
"Well, go to work."
The smile froze on Mengrong's face, his eyes fixed for a long moment, and he lowered his eyes dejectedly, "Anran, it's not that Dad can't bring himself to work, but Dad is too old. When we first went bankrupt, I interviewed at many companies, but no one wanted to hire me. My family had no income and was so poor that I couldn't even make ends meet. That's why I took out a loan to buy a used car and started driving a ride-hailing service."
Mentioning this, Meng Yushu also sighed slightly.
During that time, he saw his father sitting under a big tree and sighing with a sad face several times after school. The shade of the tree bent his father's waist, and the dazzling sunlight turned his father's hair white.
My father always pretended to be indifferent in front of them, swallowing all the cold stares he received during the interview, but he was still accused of being useless by Lu Qingcheng. The burden of the family fell on my father, making this middle-aged man like a prodigal dog huddled in the corner every day.
It was he who suggested to his father that he take out a loan to buy a car and drive a ride-hailing car. With a certain income to cover the family's daily expenses, his father felt a little relieved.
"Anran, Dad knows you also want to make this family better. I will also take orders at night in the future to save more money. Then I can open a shop and do some small business. Life will get better and better." Meng Rong didn't want to reject his daughter's kindness, but he had indeed tried to find a job, but no one was willing to hire a man in his fifties.
Seeing Meng Rong and Meng Yushu's unhappy expressions, Meng Anran could probably guess how difficult it was for Meng Rong to find a job. She leaned back in her chair, grabbed a pillow and hugged it in her arms, and continued to talk about her proposal:
"Dad, the streets are full of high-achieving students who can't find jobs these days. If you go for a clerk interview, you'll naturally have a bunch of competitors who are younger and more educated than you. But you started from scratch, and the Meng family has been wealthy for over 20 years. Your biggest advantage is your management experience. Why don't you directly interview for management?"
Meng Rong pursed her lips and said, "If they don't accept junior staff, how can they accept management?"
"Anran, drink some iced juice to quench your thirst." Su Wanman handed the grape juice with a straw to Meng Anran, and sat on the armrest of the sofa on Meng Rong's side. Looking at her daughter who always had a contented attitude, she was afraid that she didn't know how difficult this society was.
He couldn't help but say, "An Ran, it's not that your dad doesn't want to try, it's just that finding a job these days is so difficult. In those companies nowadays, if you don't have some connections or background, you may not even get a promotion after working for five or six years. Why would they hire someone with unknown background to be a manager?"
Meng Anran took a sip of juice and tilted her head towards Su Wanman, "Can't I, your biological daughter, be considered a connection?"
Su Wanman was stunned. She looked at Mengrong and almost forgot that their good daughter had so many connections.
"The Meng family used to be in the car business, right? A friend of mine recently acquired a car manufacturing plant and is looking to hire someone to run it. Dad's experience is suitable for the job. If you want to give it a try, I'll recommend him to my friend and have him interview. Besides, once you're in this industry, it's easier to understand current market trends, which will also help you start a new business in the future."
Meng Anran lowered her eyes while eating noodles, her tone so calm as if she was talking about something as simple as buying a piece of clothing.
Meng Rong was abstract again and asked tentatively, "What kind of company does your friend run?"
Could it be another big shot like Wu Chongxi?
Meng Anran blinked and said calmly: "You should have heard of Jiling Automobile."
"Ji-Jiling?!"
Mengrong stuttered when he spoke. Jiling is a car brand that has suddenly emerged in the past two years. It currently only has one off-road vehicle, which is priced at over one million. It uses fully rebound glass and the latest chip technology, and is famous for its extremely high safety.
The affiliated Liyu Automobile Group is a well-known domestic enterprise. The sales volume of several automobile brands under its name are among the top ten in the country. Its industries have also expanded overseas, especially in Country A, where Liyu cars can be seen everywhere on the streets.
Meng Anran actually has connections with Li Yu?
"I don't really know Li Yu. My friend is mainly responsible for the Jiling brand. Automobile production involves many processes and processes, so naturally there are many factories. He recently acquired a factory that does car painting and parts installation."
After hearing what Meng Anran said, Meng Rong's eyes were still wide open. Nowadays, automobile factories are all operated by robotic arms, which are very advanced. He has never seen these high-end technologies with his own eyes. If he has the opportunity to see them and understand the current automobile market, it would naturally be the best.
"Will it be too much trouble for you?" He wanted to go, but was afraid that his daughter would owe him a favor and it would be difficult to repay it.
"Is there anything troublesome about being a family?" Meng Anran put down his chopsticks and turned to look at Meng Yushu. "Right, brother?"
Meng Yushu smiled knowingly. He was the one who told his sister that family members don't need to be too picky about each other. His sister was beginning to accept them.
"Dad, I can only recommend you to go for an interview. Whether you can pass depends on your performance." Meng Anran said frankly. They are all businessmen. If Meng Rong's qualifications do not meet the standards, she has no ability to force her friend to manage such a large factory.
"Of course, Dad is still very confident!"
Meng Rong took a sip of strong tea and couldn't suppress the smile of emotion on the corner of his lips.
The Meng family is like a sailboat, and Meng Anran is the oar.
Without oars, the boat can only float on the water and drift with the current.
With oars, they have a direction to move forward.
The whole family worked together with all their strength, believing that one day they would reach the other side of success.
