Xue Mei soon learned that Huo Xiao was leaving the company.
She was furious. She had finally been released from prison early and was free to see him again, but he wanted to leave.
Her mother went to great lengths to get her a job at the factory.
No, she couldn't give up like this.
"Mom, how much money do we have left?"
After returning home, she asked Xue's mother for money.
Xue's mother didn't understand why she needed the money.
"How's it going that I told you to get close to Huo Xiao's parents and children and win their favor? If you want to win over Huo Xiao, don't just foolishly stick to his side. You need to learn to take a roundabout approach. If you make his parents and children happy, Song Jia will definitely be unhappy and will start arguing with them. Once their relationship becomes tense, your opportunity will come."
After hearing her mother's words, Xue Mei plopped down on the sofa.
"It was because they listened to you that they started arguing. Song Jia took her two children to the capital."
Mother Xue couldn't help but smile: "Isn't this a good thing? Let me tell you, men can't stand being alone. After a while, when there are no women around, they'll start having ideas, and you can take advantage of that."
The thought of her husband being locked up in prison, never seeing the light of day, made her feel that she couldn't rely on him for the rest of her life.
Fortunately, Xue Mei has been released. Only if she gets things sorted out will there be hope for her retirement.
Unexpectedly, Xue Mei glanced at her and spoke coldly.
"What opportunity? As soon as Song Jia left, Huo Xiao also resigned, just like we planned. He's going to the capital in a month."
Xue Mei then understood what she meant by wanting money and immediately took out her savings book.
“Meimei, I understand what you mean. You also want to go to the capital, right? Here is the money I’ve saved over the years, a total of more than five thousand yuan. Take it all. I support you in boldly pursuing happiness.”
Xue Mei received the bankbook. Although she felt the amount of money wasn't much, she still hugged her mother, her eyes reddening.
"Mom, thank you. I will definitely win over Huo Xiao and give you a happy old age."
......
After finishing her meal, Jiang Ning didn't go to work; she had promised Song Jia she would check out the restaurant's location.
She picked out a few good locations and hoped Jiang Ning could give her some advice.
Jiang Ning drove her around the capital in his Crown.
After looking at the seats she chose, Jiang Ning thought they were all just average.
"The most important thing in doing business is to have foot traffic, and location is key, so we should spare no expense to get a good location."
Jiang Ning took her directly to the street where her company was located.
As the two walked down the street, she introduced the place.
"Do you see this bakery? They sell coffee for fifteen yuan a cup, but it's always packed with people. The seats are always full. When doing business here, they're not afraid of expensive things, they're afraid of not being classy enough."
"The places where the wealthy in the entire capital spend their time have no shortage of food."
Song Jia was truly shocked to see the endless stream of people here.
She never dared to think about it in her wildest dreams.
I thought her 150,000 yuan principal was a lot, but now that I think about it, it's only enough to rent a house.
"Ningning, I only have 150,000 yuan. What can I do with that money?"
Song Jia believes that it's not shameful to admit you don't have money.
Since Jiang Ning brought her here to look at houses, it means he was prepared to invest.
Money left in the bank is just sitting there, lifeless. Only by investing money and creating more wealth does it have value.
"Song Jia, if you don't mind, I'll invest capital. You'll be in charge of management, and I'll handle the funding. We'll split it 50/50, how about that?"
Jiang Ning took her for coffee and shared her thoughts.
This was Song Jia's first time drinking coffee. After taking a sip, she frowned slightly.
"Oh, coffee is so bitter! I'll add more sugar. Don't joke with me. I'm not even entirely confident I can keep the restaurant running, and you're trying to steal money from me? Aren't you afraid of losing money?"
"What are you afraid of? I'm not just investing in you. With my current capital, I can invest in more than ten companies of your size. As long as even one of them makes money, I won't lose money!"
You really don't trust my judgment?
Jiang Ning smiled as she held her coffee.
Song Jia was stunned by her confident and charming eyes. Since when did the gap between her and Jiang Ning widen to such an extent?
Opening a large restaurant here costs anywhere from 300,000 to 500,000 yuan, but she says she could open ten.
It turns out her assets have reached such an astonishing level.
My little bit of money is probably nothing to her.
And now she's actually proposing to open a restaurant together—that's such a huge sign of trust in her!
"Ningning, I trust you. I'm willing to cooperate with you. As for the restaurant business in the future..."
“I don’t get involved in the specific work; I’m only responsible for the profit sharing. If you need help with the renovation, you can contact Gao Baoliang. He’ll help you with the design. He’s already a very famous interior designer in the industry, so you can leave the renovation to him.”
Jiang Ning interrupted her.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of coffee, the two finalized their collaboration.
Song Jia asked her if she should go back and discuss such a big matter with Lin Chen.
Jiang Ning chuckled, "No need, we make our own decisions."
Song Jia was extremely envious of her lifestyle.
She has complete autonomy over what she does, her husband loves and trusts her deeply, and her children are intelligent and clever. She is truly a winner in life.
She decided to work hard from now on, to live up to Jiang Ning's expectations, and to make a name for herself.
After finishing their coffee, the two immediately got back to work.
I found a location and went to negotiate the price with the landlord. In the end, I signed a three-year lease with a rent of 30,000 yuan per year.
Jiang Ning asked the landlord and the seller, but the landlord refused to budge and simply wouldn't sell.
She felt that with so much rent every year, the house was like a hen laying eggs, and it would be a pity to sell it.
Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow, surprised that there were indeed quite a few lucky people. This shop, with an area of over 300 square meters, could be worth tens of millions in a few decades if it were kept secret.
After the couple settled on the house and received the keys, it was time to pick up their child.
Taking advantage of this time, Jiang Ning also went to the kindergarten principal and promised to donate 5,000 yuan to the kindergarten so that her two children could be enrolled directly.
Song Jia lamented that in the capital, you either need power or money, otherwise it's very difficult for outsiders to settle down and survive.
After returning home, Song Jia wanted to give Jiang Ning five thousand yuan, but Jiang Ning refused.
"Actually, you could go to one of those kindergartens that don't cost so much, but I took the liberty of arranging it for you because I thought this kindergarten had better teaching quality."
If you really feel bad about it, then do a good job running the restaurant. After all, a restaurant in that location could bring in a thousand or even five thousand yuan a year in profit.
Song Jia didn't insist any further.
Jiang Ning's kindness to her is beyond measure in monetary terms.
