The plane landed in Beijing.
As soon as Zhao Qinglan went out, she was picked up by the people who were waiting.
She didn't go to her own place to settle down, but went to Wei Hong's place first.
Wei Hong's youngest son is almost one year old, and he's very cute with his chubby cheeks.
Wei Hong and her husband, Professor Lü, also dote on their hard-won son.
Before the weather got cold, the couple often carried their son outside.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the family's nanny took the little one away, and Wei Hong and Zhao Qinglan got down to business.
Professor Lü has a job, and Wei Hong also has a career. They hired a nanny as soon as their child was born to help them take care of the child and do some housework.
The information given over the phone was incomplete, so Zhao Qinglan described her thoughts in more detail in front of Wei Hong.
Having been involved in trade for some time, Wei Hong now knows more about it than Zhao Qinglan.
She had heard a lot about the world of speculators; some became rich because of it, some fell into poverty, and some even lost their lives. Opportunity and risk go hand in hand.
Like a train heading north, because the Big Brother country is gradually falling into chaos, the journey there is full of danger.
Not only do the police there take bribes, but there are also robberies and extortions.
To successfully cross the border, make money, and return safely, one needs both luck and courage.
If Wei Hong were to do it herself, given her small family business, she wouldn't dare to take the risk and would never even consider it. Only now, with Zhao Qinglan and Zhang Yu joining her, does she dare to take a gamble.
Having a child changed many of her ideas.
Before, she only wanted to live a comfortable and carefree life, but now she also wants her child to have a worry-free and bright future.
She always thought that since she and her husband had a child in middle age, and she didn't know how long she could accompany the child, she wanted to save more money for the child.
Zhang Yu was leaving Shenzhen and needed to give more instructions, so he returned a day later than Zhao Qinglan.
The three of them gathered at Zhao Qinglan's private restaurant to eat and discuss their plans.
After finishing their meal, they went directly to Zhao Qinglan's room to drink tea and continue their conversation.
Three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang, not to mention that each of them has their own unique strengths.
The plan to earn money from the older brother in exchange for goods was gradually improved through their discussions, and its feasibility increased step by step.
Even though she was very close to Wei Hong and Zhang Yu, Zhao Qinglan could not tell them the exact time of the disintegration.
According to her and Li Huai (who was in the military field)'s long-term observation of the elder brother's situation, they felt that the elder brother couldn't hold on for much longer, so the sooner they acted, the better, and they would take as much as they could.
Over three days, they ate several meals together and finally finalized the plan.
Even if there are still areas that need to be added or changed, we will proceed as needed.
Wei Hong immediately set up a new company, with the three of them jointly investing in it.
All three of them also transferred their trusted confidants from their own companies to the new company.
As for how the people from the three departments would get along, the bosses didn't worry about such trivial matters.
Anyway, they don't plan to keep this company open for long; everyone will have to go back eventually.
Zhao Qinglan didn't get involved in many affairs of the new company in Beijing. She only had time to go elsewhere when various tasks were being prepared.
When Da Wa and Xiao Duo were off work on the weekend, they came out of school, along with Zhao Qingju and her family of three, and they all went to Sun Guangming's place for dinner.
Sun Guangming was overjoyed to see the lively atmosphere in his home that he hadn't experienced in a long time.
After dinner, Zhao Qinglan brought up the idea of partnering with Zhang Yu and the others to start a company called Big Brother Trading.
Zhao Qinglan had only briefly mentioned it before, but now she went into detail, even sharing her and her husband's analysis and judgment of the current situation of the elder brother. Sun Guangming, who had initially been just listening casually, gradually became serious.
"Qinglan, come to the study with me."
After the two of them left, the remaining people reacted in various ways.
Xiao Duo didn't think much of it and continued to tease her younger brother.
The eldest child seemed to be pondering his mother's words because of his school and major.
Zhao Qingju herself didn't quite understand, so she quietly asked her husband, "Is it alright for Uncle to be so serious?"
Because of his work, Wei Yaohui could glean some insights from Zhao Qinglan's analysis. However, he also knew that such major national events were beyond the reach of ordinary people like him and his wife, so he simply smiled reassuringly.
"It's alright, even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. Uncle is probably thinking about work."
Zhao Qingju finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wei Yaohui spoke calmly, but in his heart he admired his wife's older sister, Zhao Qinglan, even more.
Even as a public official, he felt he shouldn't get involved in such matters, but his wife's sister-in-law saw an opportunity in it.
No wonder my sister-in-law's business is so successful.
He listened casually, but thought that if the business was planned properly, it might not be impossible.
Once in the study, Sun Guangming asked significantly more questions, even some rather tricky but crucial ones.
Fortunately, Zhao Qinglan had discussed it with her husband many times, and even kept track of his progress by phone these past few days; otherwise, she would have been stumped by her uncle's questions.
She answered some of the questions she could, and for the ones she couldn't answer, she first blamed her husband.
Sun Guangming would never make things difficult for his own niece; his previous probing questions were simply out of genuine concern.
Seeing that his niece couldn't answer, he said with a hint of regret, "It seems that I'll have to have a good talk with Li Huai when I have the chance."
In the past, he had the highest opinion of Li Huai among his three nephews-in-law. Unexpectedly, Li Huai was even more outstanding than he had imagined, and he had unknowingly discovered something big.
Are there no military experts or commentators in this field in China? Of course there are.
He had already read many of the analysis reports about his elder brother.
I had never thought about it from this angle before, but now, reminded by my niece and her husband's deductions and the things they need to do, I realized that I seemed to have overlooked something important before.
Zhao Qinglan smiled. "Uncle, that's easy. If Li Huai has any new achievements, just have him write to you and send them over."
"That would be great, but if I have the chance, I'd still like to talk to him in person."
If things really continue to go according to their plan, the husband might actually have to go to Beijing once. But for something so important, it would be worth making several trips.
They stayed in the study for almost half an hour before finally leaving.
Sun Guangming also encouraged Zhao Qinglan and Zhang Yu to work hard, and he also wanted to know what kind of achievements their company could make.
The small family gathering ended, and the eldest child went back to his mother's house with his sister and mother before returning to school as it was getting dark.
Zhao Qinglan then pulled her daughter aside and shared some heartfelt words between mother and daughter.
Facing her mother, Xiaoduo then subtly revealed her intention to study abroad in the future.
Zhao Qinglan was initially surprised, but quickly calmed down.
