The Shen family held a simple funeral for Nie Yuping. Nie Huaiwei had a blank expression on her face throughout the funeral, as if she had lost her soul. She stood there holding her father's portrait, her eyes dull.
No one dared to step forward to comfort her. These days, Nie Huaiwei was like a cactus covered with thorns. If you touched her with your soft side, you would be pricked and hurt.
Fu Baoer and Shen Suiwei stood side by side, helping to entertain the guests who came to pay their respects.
The funeral lasted for three days. On the last day, Nie Huaiwei called everyone over with a firm expression, as if she had made some decision.
Shen Qiaolan was a little worried, “Xiao Wei, if you have something to say, tell everyone, don’t keep it in your heart, okay?”
Nie Huaiwei showed her first smile in the past few days. She had thought it through during this period. She was indeed ignorant in the past. The Shen family had been very good to her, especially Shen Qiaolan, who had done her best as a stepmother.
"Aunt Lan, I'm fine," Nie Huaiwei looked around at everyone, "I've made up my mind. I'm going to Southern Province to do business."
When these words were spoken, everyone was a little surprised.
"You want to do business?" Shen Qiaolan disagreed, "You are only nineteen years old, it is time for you to go to college. We have already arranged a school for you..."
Nie Huaiwei interrupted Shen Qiaolan's dissuasion. She had already made up her mind: "Aunt Lan, you should know that I have never liked studying since I was a child. I won't be happy even if I go to college. I want to go to Southern Province. There are many opportunities there. I will definitely be able to make a name for myself!"
"Child, you have no social experience and no capital. What will you do if you go to Southern Province?" Wen Sihui shook her head in opposition.
Nie Huaiwei had money, which Nie Yuping had given her before she returned to the mainland. "Grandma, don't worry. Since I've made this decision, I have the confidence to do so. Can you just trust me this time?"
"But you don't know how to do business, and if you go to Southern Province, people will..."
The sudden death of a loved one had changed Nie Huaiwei's personality a lot. She was no longer so naive. Chen Xiuqi stopped his daughter who was about to persuade him and said, "Since you have made up your mind, then go ahead and do it with all your might. Your uncle is in Southern Province now. Go find him. We are all family. You should accept this little help, right?"
Nie Huaiwei's eyes welled up. She hadn't communicated much with Shen Xiuqi, and she had always thought that this somewhat dignified old man disliked her. "Thank you, Grandpa. I will."
"Thank you..." Nie Huaiwei lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly, "I'm sorry..."
"What are you talking about, kid?" Shen Qiaolan put her arm around Nie Huaiwei's shoulders. "How can we feel at ease if you, a kid, go to Southern Province?"
Liang Yaqi did not add insult to injury this time, but stood quietly by the side. She also cared about Nie Huaiwei a little, but because of her face, she was unwilling to say anything to comfort her.
"Huaiwei, what are you going to do when you go to Southern Province?" Shen Suizhi asked.
Nie Huaiwei was actually very confused. She just didn't want to stay in the Shen family anymore and wanted to make money on her own. She had no confidence about what the future would be like.
Fu Baoer listened for a long time and suddenly had an idea, "Nie Huaiwei, maybe I have a small collaboration that you might be interested in."
Nie Huaiwei wiped her tears and asked with confusion: "What cooperation?"
"Our Qingshan Beverage Factory has recently developed a new herbal tea. I heard that people in Southern Province like to drink it. If you are willing, you can become our distributor in Southern Province. What do you think?" Fu Baoer thought this was a good idea. Her current beverage business was obviously not as good as that of the winery, and she had to find a way to expand into Southern Province.
Nie Huaiwei was stunned. Fu Baoer’s winery?
It was no wonder that Nie Huaiwei was surprised. After all, in her mind, Fu Baoer had always been living off the Shen family, eating and drinking for free. How could she not be surprised when he suddenly mentioned that he also had a winery?
Could it be that the Shen family invested in it? Aren’t the Shen family’s important businesses all in heavy industry?
Fu Baoer briefly introduced the origins of Qingshan Beverage Factory and Winery. Nie Huaiwei's eyes widened when she heard it. It turned out that when she was being willful and domineering, Fu Baoer had already run such a large enterprise?
When she was out playing, she often saw Qingshan Liquor. It was expensive, tasted good, and was very popular. She also thought it was good after drinking it. It turned out that it was developed and created by Fu Baoer?
So amazing! Nie Huaiwei felt that she was so stupid and self-righteous. The girl in front of her was confident and generous, and she handled things calmly. How could she be a dodder who relied on others to make a living?
While she was fighting with Leung Ya-kei over a dress, Fu Baoer should have been handling orders from all over the country and arranging tasks calmly, right?
"I agree! I'm willing to be your distributor!" Nie Huaiwei made a quick decision. "I will definitely gain a foothold in Southern Province!"
Fu Baoer believed in Nie Huaiwei. Her transformation was visible to the naked eye. Even if she failed, it would not necessarily cause the beverage factory to lose much. It was normal in doing business.
Nie Huaiwei doesn't have much money now, and Fu Baoer is only willing to give her a small amount of goods. In addition, several customers in Southern Province will gradually introduce this new product, herbal tea. Whether she can become the general distributor of Qingshan Beverage Factory depends on whether Nie Huaiwei has the ability.
Nie Huaiwei was very grateful for Fu Baoer's decision. If she let her off because of her friendship with the Shen family, Nie Huaiwei would feel looked down upon.
It doesn’t matter if there is less stock, she will definitely sell it better than others!
With a direction, Nie Huaiwei regained her spirits. She quickly composed herself and left the Shen family with her father's portrait and some clothes.
She would not compete with herself, nor would she be pretentious with others. Nie Huaiwei immediately went to find Shen Qiaosheng. She was willing to learn how to do business from her uncle. This was a very rare opportunity for her.
Chen Qiaosheng had heard about family matters from Fu Xiuzhi on the phone a long time ago. He could give some advice to his niece, but he would not stay in Nan Province for too long. He would return to the capital after attracting investment. What would happen in the future would depend entirely on Nie Huaiwei herself.
Nie Huaiwei fully understood that she had never been more motivated about life than she is now.
Fu Baoer's goods have also been delivered. Nie Huaiwei's rental house is filled with boxes of herbal tea. She must sell them all within a month.
From that moment on, Nie Huaiwei was busy selling her products every day, hanging out on the streets and recommending her products to restaurants. This really helped her to gradually gain a foothold. After tasting her products, many restaurants were willing to buy from her, but the price was very low.
For the first time, Nie Huaiwei cleared out all the goods in her hands. She squatted in the rental house and cried all night. It turned out that it was so tiring to survive on her own.
