Chu Yu and Dai Donglin's apartment was of average size, but the lighting was quite good. Since they didn't care about the size, they didn't rush to find a large apartment. Instead, they carefully selected from the remaining smaller units and surprisingly found a decent floor.
The small apartment on the third floor is enough for Chu Yu. She doesn't know how Dai Donglin's position will change in a few years. She might have a child and then have the opportunity to move to a different house. She'll plan for it slowly!
Besides, what kind of houses does she not own? Why would she care about such a small house?
Chu Yu has a good attitude and plans to go over and decorate the house properly after the handover. The hard furnishings are all the same, the important thing is the soft furnishings. Before, since everyone lived close by, she was embarrassed to buy too much furniture and appliances. Now that she has moved into an apartment building, Chu Yu plans to buy a refrigerator, a TV and an air conditioner, and also buy a dishwasher from Gangcheng. In short, she will do whatever makes her comfortable.
If you decorate the small house a little cozily, it's actually enough to live in. Besides, the houses in the team have almost no shared area, so they are all real space and quite comfortable to live in.
Dai Donglin found her amusing; sometimes she wouldn't give an inch, and other times she was so generous.
However, Chu Yu's decision to return the house to Sister Yu caused quite a stir in the team. Everyone said that she was a good person and didn't hold grudges. Sister Yu had five children, so having a larger house would indeed be more spacious.
"That's right. My family got a three-bedroom apartment. We can even partition off a room from the north-facing balcony. It's enough for five kids to live in three rooms. It's definitely much more spacious than two rooms."
Sister Yu was overjoyed to get a suitable house. Shen Jun gave her the money for the prescription, and the price difference for the house in the team wasn't expensive. Sister Yu paid the difference without any burden.
Chu Yu took some time to visit Shen Jun, whose chili sauce business was booming and had clearly taken off.
"Mom, how's it going?"
Previously, Sister Yu stayed here every day, providing technical guidance to Shen Jun's workers and helping them get ahead. Now, the chili sauce produced in Shen Jun's factory is no worse than that made by Sister Yu.
Because the chilies they bought were of high quality, the finished product was even more fragrant than what Sister Yu made.
Shen Jun smiled and said, "Not bad. But what about you? Did you gain anything from your trip to Hong Kong?"
Chu Yu then mentioned the opening of Mandarin and Hua Lai's desire to invest in "Jurassic Resurrection." Shen Jun was surprised by the scale of her operation. In her previous life, this movie was a huge hit, grossing $1 billion worldwide. If Chu Yu could produce a movie of the same quality, it would be hard to guarantee its success.
Shen Jun still has high hopes for her daughter. "With such a big investment, you must be under a lot of pressure. Mom hopes you can be happy and not feel too much pressure."
"It's alright, Mom. Things are going very smoothly in the South China Sea. I have enough funds on hand, so I'm not under too much pressure."
Chu Yu was quite optimistic, and Shen Jun was relieved to see that she was in good spirits.
Chu Yu brought up the matter of allocating housing again. Shen Jun didn't care about apartment buildings. Having lived in apartment buildings for so many years, she really didn't care whether they were big or small.
“If you and Dai Donglin have a child, this two-bedroom apartment won’t be enough.”
"We'll see when the time comes; we're not planning on having children yet."
Chu Yu didn't want to have children so early, and Shen Jun agreed, saying, "You're so young, enjoy life. Even if you don't have children, Mom won't object."
"Mom is the best," Chu Yu said with a smile.
"You child, if I don't treat you well, who else will I treat well?"
Shen Jun's chili sauce trademark has been registered and it will be called "Grandma Chili Sauce"! With the first batch of goods ready, Shen Jun plans to roll them out and sell them in the market.
"Why don't we sell them at Chu Jiali first, and give them to customers to take away? If they sell well, we'll definitely build up some good reputation. Once we have a good reputation, we can then sell them outside. It's the same thing."
Shen Jun thought so too.
She put the old lady's chili sauce in Chu Jiali's store. Some regular customers recognized this chili sauce and wanted to buy some to take home before leaving, and also to give their relatives far away a memory. Shen Jun also started a package sale, buy five bottles and get one free. Some people asked their colleagues and friends to buy together to get a discount. Before they knew it, the sales volume went up.
The old lady's chili sauce, sold exclusively at Chu Jiali, has achieved impressive sales figures, with several hundred bottles sold daily.
Shen Jun thought that she should first conquer the market in Beijing. If customers in Beijing approve of this chili sauce, it proves that the chili sauce suits their taste. Starting from Beijing and expanding to other places is definitely better than expanding nationwide.
Chu Yu agreed and helped Shen Jun contact several suppliers. Shen Jun also found salespeople to promote the product to large stores. Many store owners found it good after trying it and agreed to sell it to her.
Speaking of chili sauce, it's something every household needs on their dining table, so if it can sell well, it's quite good.
You don't make much money from one bottle, but it's a different story when you ship a lot.
How many bottles can a family consume in a year? With so many families across the country, how could the sales volume be small?
After several months of hard work, Zhang Ying's public speaking skills improved day by day, and her eloquence was no longer what it used to be.
Zhang Ying is visibly becoming more and more confident.
Chu Yu met with her. "How have you been lately?"
Zhang Ying was quite happy. A few days ago, she went back to her alma mater to give a speech. Many students from her alma mater wanted to go abroad and had to take exams like the GRE. Zhang Ying happened to have teachers who could tutor them, so she recruited quite a few students.
“You’re right. Being a good teacher isn’t enough; you also need to build your own brand and be a good speaker,” Zhang Ying said. She used to be a poor speaker, and even though she could teach, her students weren’t interested. But now it’s different. She can tell stories, spread dreams, and use data to illustrate the importance of learning English. Whether others are interested or not, she doesn’t know, but the students at Tsinghua University certainly are.
