The following day, when Fu Qiyuan left, Jiang Shan did not come to see him off.
Sanlang held Jiang Huai in his arms and said goodbye to Fu Qiyuan with reluctance at the door.
Fu Qiyuan kept his eyes fixed on the movement at the door, but he couldn't catch a glimpse of that beautiful figure no matter how hard he looked.
Just before boarding the carriage, An Jing joked, "Lord Fu, take care on your journey, and don't stumble or bump into anything!"
Fu Qiyuan touched the wound on his lip, gave An Jing a meaningful look, and then leisurely got into the carriage.
An Jing felt a little uneasy under Fu Qiyuan's gaze and pondered for a long time without figuring it out.
When he saw the same wound on Jiang Shan, his heart shattered into pieces.
"You, you all...you all...!" He silently accused Jiang Shan, his eyes blazing with anger at being hurt.
Jiang Shan touched the wound on the corner of his lip, hissed softly, rolled his eyes in a harmless manner, turned and left, ignoring An Jing.
She is a victim and doesn't need to explain anything to anyone.
Not long after Fu Qiyuan left, Chongqing's "Chengbang Logistics" officially opened for business.
With An Jing's deep pockets and extensive business background, coupled with Jiang Shan's novel and unique business plan, and Manager Li's business skills, Chengbang Logistics' advertisements quickly reached every corner of Chongqing.
People in this era have no concept of the word "logistics," but the advertisements clearly state that they transport different goods from various counties and prefectures in Chongqing to Chongqing, and then allocate the goods to other places according to the needs of various places, forming a continuous cycle.
"Chengbang Logistics" has obvious advantages in delivering goods: a wide variety of products, on-demand ordering, guaranteed quality, and prices that are not more expensive than other stores.
"Chengbang Logistics" offers both wholesale and retail options. There's one price for large quantities and another for small quantities, but the quality is guaranteed for both.
Almost all merchants have shown great interest in this "City-State Logistics".
Some vendors expressed disdain. Like those merchants who go to the countryside to buy poultry, they can obtain enough poultry anytime, anywhere, and then sell it to their regular customers—it's very convenient.
However, they did not take the consumers into account.
The Chen family is having a wedding tomorrow and needs over a hundred chickens and ducks. The steward can buy a hundred chickens and ducks from Zhang San's house, but at the "Chengbang Logistics" dispatch point, not only can you buy a hundred chickens and ducks, but you can also buy eggs, meat, fruits, and vegetables, and they even deliver them to your door for free. Anyone with a brain knows which option to choose.
The routes in the hands of Fugui, Jixiang, and Ruyi were established almost simultaneously. Under the guidance of Jiangshan and Manager Li, they quickly built their own dedicated logistics teams and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to them.
Surprisingly, Hu Zi approached Jiang Shan and proposed the idea of running a dedicated logistics line.
Tiger is now called Jiang Yong. He and the other orphans asked Mr. Xunmei to give them names, but they insisted on taking the surname Jiang.
The second-ranked stone also has a surname, and he changed his name to Jiang Yi, which represents being as strong and independent as a stone.
The third son, Chun Ge'er, was named Jiang Chen, which means the seed of spring.
The child, named Jiang Lin, is a combination of two woods, signifying a lively and joyous occasion.
Xiao Wu and Xiao He were given the name Jiang Tao, which implies striving and making progress.
Xiao Qi, the youngest child, is best named Jiang Ji.
Jiang Yong is only fourteen years old. He is currently learning to read and write under the guidance of Mr. Xunmei. With the help of Sanlang's guidance, he is making rapid progress. He can recognize quite a few characters and can also do some simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
But that's far from enough. They haven't even reached the level of elementary school students. How can we feel at ease letting them go out and make their way in the world?
Jiang Shan absolutely refused to agree.
Jiang Yong failed to persuade Jiang Shan and returned to the bamboo hut dejectedly, remaining in a bad mood for several days.
Even the seven brothers working together couldn't comfort him.
It's making Sanlang very worried.
Sanlang found Mr. Xunmei and told his teacher about Huzi's worries.
"Teacher, please think of a way to persuade Yong Ge. He hasn't been eating well for the past few days!"
In Sanlang's eyes, Jiang Yong and his friends always felt that nothing was more important than eating! If there was, it must be something extraordinary.
Mr. Xunmei asked with a smile, "Why don't you try to persuade your sister to agree with Jiang Yong's choice?"
Sanlang's eyes widened. "Is what you said wrong, sister? Yong-ge is still young; he still needs to study with his teacher!"
Mr. Xunmei patiently guided them, "Before they met you and me, had they ever read books? Had they ever had enough to eat? Were they always following me to read and learn to read?"
Saburo blinked his big eyes, looking confused, and asked, "But they have the opportunity to learn to read and write with a teacher now. Sister wants them to become scholars and pass the imperial examinations in the future, isn't that good?"
"How many scholars are there in this world? How many of them can truly rise above others? Tell me, do you think Jiang Yong and his friends will really be able to achieve anything in the future? Let alone helping your sister manage the shop now, even if you let them focus on studying with me, do you think they can pass the imperial examinations?"
Saburo was stumped by the question.
Yong is getting older and has passed the best age for studying. Even if he is taught for a few more years, he can only learn more characters and compose some poems and songs. Moreover, Yong is not as smart as Xiao Qi when it comes to studying. Indeed...
Having figured this out, Sanlang asked again, "Yong-ge is still so young, won't he be bullied outside?"
Mr. Xunmei patted Sanlang's head and said affectionately, "Whose growth doesn't involve tempering and strengthening? He has already passed through the darkest moment. With your sister's protection, he will grow up quickly. You must believe in him."
Sanlang nodded thoughtfully and said, "Teacher, Yong-ge and I will go and discuss it with my sister again. I'll just tell her this, and she'll definitely agree!"
That night, Sanlang and Jiang Yong had another long talk with Jiang Shan.
This time, Jiang Yong easily persuaded Jiang Shan, but Jiang Shan also had requirements: no matter where he was, he could not fall behind in his studies, he had to keep a low profile when he was out, he could not fight with others, and he had to take good care of himself.
Jiang Yong was moved to tears by Jiang Shan's words, which further strengthened his resolve to become Jiang Jie's most capable assistant.
Little did anyone know that over the years, Jiang Yong would truly grow into Jiang Shan's most loyal and capable right-hand man.
After that, Jiang Yong followed Xia Qing, Rong Hua, Fu Gui, Ji Xiang, Ru Yi and others, traveling all over the country and establishing his own logistics line, even heading straight to Beijing, but we will not go into details here.
The seven brothers were not affected by the temporary loss of one person; instead, they worked even harder.
Before leaving Chongqing, the eldest brother Jiang Yong gave them a lesson and set a clear and great life goal for them.
They are Sister Jiang's younger brothers, and they will dedicate their lives to Sister Jiang's great ideals!
Jiang Yong quietly told them that Sister Jiang's dream was to be listed on the Forbes Daqing Rich List!
