"So Mom doesn't need to work so hard. As long as she knows how to use people well and puts the right people in the right positions, she can run a good business."
Doing business isn't something you can do by constantly monitoring it.
There is still a need for strategy in this process.
However, Lin Xue chose the most foolish method, which was also the most laborious and thankless one.
Song Lili really wanted to tell her, but...
"Then... how come Auntie doesn't know these things?" Xiao Chen asked, puzzled and even more confused.
"Xiao Chen, you need to know that in this world, people are different from each other, and people's thoughts are also different."
"We cannot force others to accept our ideas, and we also have the right to have our own ideas."
"Therefore, you must accept the differences between people and understand the differences between people."
When children reach a certain age, they should be taught some important principles.
"Oh, I understand now." Xiao Chen nodded, no longer paying attention to the question, and didn't ask anything else.
Song Lili didn't say much. Some things, if you encounter them, you'll tell him, and he'll gradually understand in the future. If you don't encounter them, he'll naturally understand when he grows up.
Therefore, it's best to let things take their natural course.
The next morning, guests arrived at the Zhang family early, and they were the people Song Lili knew best and cared about the most.
"Daqing? Come in and sit down quickly. Why are you here so early?" Song Lili had just brought out breakfast when she saw Daqing come in from the door.
As soon as Daqing saw Song Lili, his eyes narrowed and his mouth stretched wide, revealing his white teeth.
"I heard you were back, so I came to see you."
Actually, Daqing had wanted to come for a long time, but considering that they had just returned and might need to tidy up the house and visit relatives, it was delayed until today.
"Come in and eat with us, I made a lot." Song Lili smiled and was in a good mood.
"Where's Yang Mei? Why didn't she come with you?" Song Lili looked behind Daqing but didn't see Yang Mei.
"Oh, she'll be here in a bit, I came ahead of time," Daqing said after sitting down.
"How have you been these past few years?" After sitting down, Song Lili began to chat with Daqing.
"It's alright. Now that the land has been distributed, as long as you're not lazy, you can still live a pretty good life at the end of the year."
Now, as long as a portion of the harvest is handed over, the rest is all theirs.
Therefore, everyone was happy and worked hard, and every household felt that there was hope for the future.
Compared to the past, these days are the days we look forward to.
"That's pretty good. Things will get better gradually." In the future, even if we just farm, we can still make something of ourselves.
"It's good. What about you? You haven't been back for several years. We only write letters, so I don't know how things are going."
"We? We're doing fine too. Qingguo and Qinghua have both been assigned jobs. As for me, I don't like being tied down, so I didn't follow the assignment and started my own business. It's not bad so far."
"Is it easy to do business?" Daqing seemed quite interested in this question.
Song Lili paused for a moment before saying, "It's alright, I guess. It's enough to support the family and even save some money. It should be pretty good, right?"
Song Lili wasn't sure either; she had never worked there and really didn't know if it was a good job.
However, based on her memory, business people seem to be doing quite well now.
"That's...very good." Daqing thought to himself in amazement, and his heart began to stir with desire.
"Compared to us, they should be pretty good, right?" Daqing didn't understand either.
Song Lili nodded, very affirmatively, "That's definitely much better than farming."
Farming is actually the least profitable thing to do.
However, many people are used to farming, dependent on the land, and unable to leave the land, which is why they are tied to the countryside.
As long as you go out, you can find better opportunities.
People are simply afraid of change, or rather, afraid of the unease that the unknown brings.
“I think so too.” Daqing nodded in agreement.
Now, you can hear news in the village that some people have made a lot of money doing business.
"Lili..." Yang Mei called out from outside at this moment.
"Sister Yangmei, come in quickly, I've been thinking about you."
Upon hearing the voice, Song Lili's face lit up with a bright smile, and she even stood up to go out and greet the person.
"Wow, Lili, you look younger and younger! Your face is so fair and tender, you look younger than people in their twenties."
Yang Mei was stunned when she saw Song Lili and exclaimed in surprise.
"Sister Yangmei, it's not as exaggerated as you say. I've just gotten pale from not working for the past few years."
It's because I've been eating and taking good care of myself these past few days that my complexion has improved.
"I'm not exaggerating. Go out and see for yourself, doesn't she look younger than a woman in her twenties?"
The people in their twenties in the village all looked older than Song Lili.
The main reason is that the villagers have to work in the fields all the time, exposed to wind, sun, and rain, and they are also very tired from hard work, so they naturally age faster.
Comparing Yang Mei and Song Lili, it seems as if Yang Mei is ten years older than Song Lili.
But the truth is, the two women are no more than five years apart in age.
"Then I'll take it as a compliment." Song Lili happily took Yang Mei's arm and walked into the house.
"I'm just praising you, don't take it as a compliment, okay?"
Yang Mei was genuinely happy to see Song Lili.
This woman was like a younger sister to her, someone she felt close to and someone she cared about.
Sometimes, Yangmei even has the illusion that Song Lili is closer to Yangtao than Yangtao.
But this shouldn't be happening!
"Thank you, Sister Yangmei."
Song Lili was so happy that she ate a lot more for breakfast.
Daqing and his wife, along with the Zhang family, chatted together for a long time without breaking up.
The conversation between Song Lili and Daqing was thus interrupted and not continued.
An hour later, everyone reluctantly parted ways to go about their own business.
Now, only Song Lili and Daqing and his wife are left here.
"Sister Yangmei? Where are your children? Why didn't you bring them? I brought them gifts; you should have brought them all."
Yang Mei now has three children: one daughter and two sons.
"Forget it. My two kids are such naughty monkeys, always jumping around, they're practically tearing the roof off."
"I think we should just forget about it. It's giving you a headache. I have no other choice but to let him smoke every day so that he'll be more obedient."
When it comes to her child, Yang Mei is truly at a loss; she doesn't know how to discipline him anymore.
Seriously, I've never seen such a naughty child. He's caused trouble for many families in this village.
She was terrified because people kept coming to her door every day.
