Seeing that they had been keeping accounts in a small notebook all day, and that they couldn't suppress the excitement of finding money, Liu Guilan would occasionally offer them some pointers.
"It's all because Weiwei saw that you were struggling financially, so she tried to help you out. You must remember this kindness and remember how you got your good life and decent jobs. It's all thanks to someone."
Su Xuemei, Zhao Lingdang, Huo Hai, and Huo Jiang immediately nodded, obediently accepting the instruction: "Mom, don't worry, we all know that it was the third brother and Weiwei who helped us. We remember it and will never be ungrateful."
Liu Guilan nodded in satisfaction.
Putting everything else aside, her two sons are not very talented, not as smart and capable as her third son, but they are more obedient and listen to advice.
Her two daughters-in-law are reasonable and not the greedy type.
Take this watch sale, for example. Although they look so happy when they're keeping accounts and counting money at home, they keep their mouths shut when they're out, afraid of causing trouble for Weiwei and Lao San.
She is very content to have such a son and daughter-in-law.
Although they are not particularly smart or outstanding, as long as they are willing to work diligently with the smart people around them and not fall behind, their lives will not be bad.
When Su Xuemei and Zhao Lingdang came to deliver the money, they excitedly told Ye Weiwei about selling the watch.
Seeing the light in their eyes, Ye Weiwei asked, "These watches are selling so well, should I try to get some more to sell?"
Su Xuemei and Zhao Lingdang both quickly shook their heads and refused.
Su Xuemei said, "Weiwei, don't take any more risks. These watches are just right now. Although this business is profitable and quick to make money, it is also risky. We know you want to help us, but we can't go too far or attract attention. Especially since your grandfather and third son both work for large organizations, we can't let it have a bad influence on them."
Zhao Lingdang: "Weiwei, what your sister-in-law said is right. Our lives are so much better now than before. It's something I never dared to dream of before. I often feel like I'm dreaming, and I'm afraid that if I get too greedy, the dream will end. We really can't be too ostentatious about this, lest people have their eyes on us and it will have a bad impact on you and Lao San."
During this period, the two of them felt that making money was as fast and unreal as a dream. Although they were envious of the money, they did not want to cause trouble for Lao San and Weiwei because of it.
Many people in Kyoto seem warm and polite on the surface, but some are like daggers hidden behind smiles. No one can guarantee that they won't turn around and stab you in the back after just smiling at you.
Ye Weiwei naturally listened to advice and readily accepted her two sisters-in-law's suggestion, ceasing all further tinkering with the watch.
Actually, her suggestion just now was also a test of her two sisters-in-law.
The result of the trial was naturally very satisfactory.
She was actually worried that her two sisters-in-law were blinded by the prospect of quick profits from selling watches.
After all, the profit from selling just one watch is equivalent to more than two months' salary for them. Moreover, these watches are very easy to sell; people go through connections and beg to buy them, practically begging for large sums of money to be handed to them.
Ye Weiwei was genuinely worried that if they became addicted to reselling, they wouldn't be able to concentrate on their work and would only be looking for shortcuts.
It seems that these two sisters-in-law were able to resist the temptation of money and not let it cloud their judgment.
Once things loosen up in a couple of years, she can properly train them. Putting aside everything else, making a fortune in Kyoto will be a piece of cake.
While I was talking to my two sisters-in-law, a special visitor arrived at our home.
I had met Longlan a few times.
Long Lan came to the house with Dr. Zhao.
The two formulas that Ye Weiwei contributed some time ago were taken very seriously by the higher-ups, who quickly set up a special workshop in the pharmaceutical factory to begin mass production as military supplies.
Because the recipe is not difficult to make and easy to learn, the first batch of finished products has been put into the military camp and distributed to the soldiers who were given the mission. The initial results are very good and the response is very positive.
Dr. Zhao only had some free time after finishing her work in the production workshop, and she came to find Ye Weiwei happily without even taking a break.
When Long Lan heard that he was coming to Ye Weiwei's place, she insisted on coming along.
She remembered that she had an agreement with Ye Weiwei.
She's been busy lately, and Ye Weiwei has been back in Beijing for a while now, so the two of them haven't had a chance to meet and talk. She can't afford to miss this opportunity again.
Old Master Long was happy to see his granddaughter make friends with people her own age, so of course he would agree.
"Ye Weiwei, you promised to fight me, and I'm here to keep my promise."
Long Lan couldn't wait to shout as soon as she entered the door, but she was immediately embarrassed when she saw that everyone in Ye Weiwei's house was staring at her.
Little did she know that Ye Weiwei had guests at home, and it was incredibly impolite for her to shout and yell on her first visit.
When Ye Weiwei saw it was her, she pretended not to notice her discomfort and greeted her with a smile, "Look how anxious you are! I'm in Kyoto and I can't run away. I'll be waiting for you anytime!"
Long Lan smiled sheepishly, "I didn't know you had guests at home today, I'm sorry."
She was so excited at the thought of competing with Ye Weiwei that she was overjoyed.
Ye Weiwei: "These are not just guests, they are all my family, my parents-in-law, my brother and sister-in-law, and my nephews and nieces."
Ye Weiwei introduced the two sides and then had her nephews and nieces greet each other.
Long Lan looked at the family's harmonious scene with surprise, "These are your family members who moved here from the countryside?"
Ye Weiwei: "Yes. We all come from the countryside."
Long Lan glared at Ye Weiwei with displeasure: "What kind of tone is that! Do you think I'm as shallow as those women surnamed Zhou, looking down on rural people? You're underestimating me, Long Lan, far too much."
When I was a child, I lived in the countryside for more than two years. I would get up before dawn to cut pig feed, feed the chickens, ducks and pigs. I could cook and boil water using the earthen stove in the countryside!
Rural life is a bit tougher than in big cities like Kyoto, but we're all the same people. Without farmers growing crops, what would we city dwellers eat? I'm not one of those ungrateful wretches who eat from the fields and then curse the cooks.
Ye Weiwei smiled and gave Long Lan a thumbs up, "No wonder you grew up by Elder Long's side, your ideological awareness is really high."
Long Lan gave a smug snort: "That's right!"
After saying that, she looked at Ye Weiwei with admiration: "But I really admire this about you, your clear sense of right and wrong."
This woman could bring down the Qin family's collateral branches without batting an eye, and she could also wholeheartedly share the good fortune with the Huo family.
