Chapter 322 Returning to the Capital



Lu Wanqing didn't let him go for nothing; she gave him thirteen houses and, as promised, 6,500 yuan.

"Mr. Lu, you are the most generous boss I have ever met," Manager Chen exclaimed.

He works at a film and television company, and it's really hard to earn money. If he doesn't meet the requirements, his pay will be deducted.

Lu Wanqing remained noncommittal; he had helped her so much, it was only right that she give him some reward.

"Manager Chen, we're old friends, so let's make it a win-win situation. If you're unhappy here, you can consider developing your career in the mainland."

With the reform and opening up of mainland China, if he also had his Hong Kong identity, what job wouldn't be better than being a clothing agent?

That being said, he has an elderly mother at home, and as the saying goes, one should not travel far from one's family. He must have his own considerations.

Everything is going smoothly in Hong Kong, but I don't know how things are going in Beijing. There's been no reply, so I guess Ah Biao has already resolved the matter.

Without thinking much about it, she swirled the wine in her glass, finished the red wine, and went to sleep, as she had to catch her morning flight.

This trip lasted a long time, and I was alone. After finishing my business, I missed home terribly and felt an overwhelming urge to return.

Such magnificent lights are meaningless if you don't have someone nearby to share them with.

She misses even more the flickering incandescent lights in the courtyard house and the aimless strolls the whole family would take after dinner.

The children's laughter and the embraces in the woods seem especially memorable when one is alone.

......

Qianjin Garment Factory is completely finished. People are blocking the gate every day demanding compensation. To prevent the situation from escalating, Xu Jin has used all the cash the factory can produce to pay compensation.

Double the deposit and 5% compensation may not seem like much, but without continuous income, it can be a fatal blow.

The factory only had a little over two million yuan to buy raw materials, and even after losing it all, they still couldn't appease these people.

Ah Biao made a big fuss, so Xu Jin naturally gave him the compensation first. He didn't have a deposit, and the contract didn't specify the amount, but he still got 200,000 yuan in compensation.

Compared to the actual loss, this is not much; it's better than nothing.

Those who arrived late could only wait for Xu Jin to sell the equipment in order to raise the money.

Besides the customers, the factory workers also quit. They had no work and no money for expenses, so they caused trouble at the gate. If it weren't for the security guards, they probably would have rushed in and started looting, vandalizing, and burning things.

Such a commotion naturally alerted the Ministry of Textiles.

Through investigation, Fok Ying-tung discovered that Yin Ke was actually using his name to attract customers for the factory.

Some customers even went to the Ministry of Textiles compound to find him in person.

Feng Yu felt very guilty seeing Huo Yingdong giving her a hard time at home.

She clutched her pregnant belly and prayed, hoping that Yin Ke wouldn't expose her.

Huamei Garment Factory, however, made a fortune and increased its investment to produce women's clothing. It not only sold out of A Biao's stock but also won over many customers.

When Lu Wanqing returned, she saw that her wholesale store was even more prosperous than before.

Basically, as soon as the goods arrive at the store, individual vendors snap them up.

Ah Biao learned from Xu Jin's mistake and didn't engage in pre-sales. He took a steady and pragmatic approach and was still able to make money. There was no need to be too aggressive.

After giving the purchase contract to Abiao, Lu Wanqing didn't say anything more and went home.

Trust people you employ. Since A Biao was able to resolve such a major crisis, we can finalize some specific details later.

As Elaine Chao was about to leave to pick up her three children, she saw her daughter-in-law return and greeted her with a smile, helping her carry things.

Goodness, there were three or four bags at the door, I have no idea how she brought them all back.

"Mom, don't move it, I'll move it." If Zhao Xiaolan hadn't been home, she definitely would have taken these things out of her spatial storage after returning home.

That bag must weigh over 100 pounds; Zhao Xiaolan probably couldn't move it.

"Okay, then I won't worry about it. I have to rush to pick up Sanbao." Zhao Xiaolan didn't insist and left with a smile.

Actually, it wouldn't matter if the daycare was a little late, but she just wanted to be the first person to pick up the child.

No matter the era, there are still many people who love children. When she arrived, she was in the front row, and soon, the area behind her was also full of people.

She would occasionally chat with the people next to her.

Her attire was considered quite high-end among the crowd, her face was dignified, and she wore a gold bracelet given to her by Han Dongsheng, making her appear very wealthy.

She vaguely heard people behind her discussing the frequent robberies on the street. She wanted to listen carefully, but then get out of class ended and the children all rushed out.

"Grandma~"

"Grandma~"

"Grandma~"

Miaomiao and Duoduo rushed to Zhao Xiaolan's side and took her hand, while Ququ remained aloof and followed beside them.

Grandma said that Mom has returned, and they were all very happy. They walked briskly, wishing they could fly back immediately.

To let the children see Lu Wanqing as soon as possible, Zhao Xiaolan deliberately took a shortcut, passing through an alley.

Right in front of a tailor shop, a woman in her sixties suddenly called out to them in broken Mandarin.

"Young lady, I'm looking for Maoyan Hutong, can you tell me where it is?" The old lady was clearly from out of town and had come to ask for directions.

The alleyways were winding and confusing, and it was common to get lost. Without much thought, Zhao Xiaolan pointed out the directions to her.

Just as we were about to leave, the old woman spoke up again, "My eyesight isn't very good, could you please lead the way?"

Zhao Xiaolan looked at the three children, feeling hesitant.

"Young lady, you're not worried I'm a bad person, are you? There are so many people here, and I really have bad eyesight and can't find my way. If you're really worried, you can have the three children wait here," the old woman said promptly.

Ququ clearly saw the glint in her eyes.

"Grandma, don't go," Ququ hurriedly said to Zhao Xiaolan.

Even with poor eyesight, I could see the hesitation in her eyes; there was definitely something wrong.

Just then, Lu Wanqing walked over with brisk steps.

She wanted to take a shortcut to pick up the children.

I didn't expect to run into them on the way.

One by one, the children flew to her side like cannonballs.

This time, Ququ wasn't so aloof and accepted her mother's kiss with a smile.

"Mom, this old lady wants Grandma to lead the way," Miaomiao said quickly to Lu Wanqing.

I turned my head, but the old lady was nowhere to be seen; she had already run away.

Lu Wanqing knew they had definitely encountered scammers.

"Mom, the old lady Miaomiao mentioned is definitely a liar. She takes advantage of people's kindness to lure them away. She either robs them or kidnaps them when they're not paying attention. Luckily, you didn't fall for it."

Lu Wanqing praised.

Zhao Xiaolan patted her chest, still shaken. If it weren't for Ququ stopping her, she almost would have gone. These swindlers were so hateful.
