Chapter 94 Chapter 94 Parents
The babies in the garden are growing well, but Lin Anran has been away for many days. She has been recording and making adjustments. As for the orchids, she basically just follows her original method of growing them, mainly the aloe vera and roses, because she is trying to cultivate new varieties. There has been some small progress so far, and the future is bright.
Although she knew it would be a long battle, Lin Anran was not afraid at all. Even if the cultivation failed in the end, she had developed various skin care formulas in her experiments. These formulas were very easy to use. Of course, with her golden finger, she would definitely succeed in cultivation. She could definitely afford the few years, and her money was enough to support her own research.
After the Mingyuan Villa garden was completed, Lin Anran made some new arrangements and then quickly rushed to the Jinyuan Villa. She did not live in the Jinyuan Villa, but it did not affect her use of the garden here. The batch of roses she had planted by cuttings were growing well. It was a good idea to build a greenhouse garden. When the batch of rose products she had made before was used up, she could take over the ones here.
Lin Anran nodded with satisfaction. Very good, very good. She no longer had to worry about being blocked at her door by a group of loyal customers of the beauty salon. Rose essential oil surpassed aloe vera gel and became the star product of the beauty salon, and it was firmly established.
Many customers want to buy rose essential oil because they want to use it every day, not just once or twice a month, and it is too difficult to get an appointment at a beauty salon.
Lin Anran has used the formula to make ordinary rose essential oil. Compared with the rose essential oil made from the roses she planted, the former is very easy to use and the effect is also very good. Of course, it is indeed not as good as the latter.
Wang Simei was a neighbor, so as soon as she heard that Lin Anran had returned, she immediately visited him while he was at home: "Boss Lin, did you have fun this time?"
Lin Anran: "I'm happy. How come you have time to come here?"
Wang Simei smiled widely, "Boss Lin, your beauty salon is so hard to get a reservation at. I'm here to ask you how I can get your rose essential oil. Look at my face, it's so fair and tender, all thanks to your aloe vera gel. It's just that I prefer using rose essential oil now. Your rose essential oil is my favorite."
Hearing this, Lin Anran looked at Wang Simei's face, which was indeed white and tender. Wang Simei liked to wear makeup, and she still likes to wear makeup now, but sometimes she also likes to go out without makeup, saying that her whiteness can cover up all ugliness, and she is not afraid of others looking at her face.
Lin Anran looked at Wang Simei. Although Wang Simei had an ordinary appearance, she looked fair and clean now, and had a friendly smile, which made her very likable.
"I remember you go to the beauty salon once a week. Isn't that enough?" Lin Anran gave preferential treatment to Wang Simei, the first guinea pig and the first customer of the beauty salon. Other customers were not like Wang Simei. Half of the customers only went once or twice a month. Maybe there were others who exchanged places privately. Lin Anran didn't care about these. Anyway, she made a lot of money, and those who were willing to give their numbers to others would also benefit from it.
"I gave you rose essential oil before." Lin Anran wanted to laugh when talking about this. Wang Simei shamelessly went to her house on her birthday. In the end, Lin Anran gave Wang Simei rose essential oil as a birthday gift.
Wang Simei immediately frowned and said, "Yes, Boss Lin, you gave me two bottles of rose essential oil, but my mother took them away when I wasn't paying attention. After she took them away, I never even saw the bottles again. I didn't know my mother was so good at hiding things."
Lin Anran laughed. Seeing that Wang Simei was even sadder, although he could tell that she was pretending, he was too embarrassed to continue laughing. He coughed twice and said, "You came to me specifically to ask for rose essential oil."
Wang Simei smiled immediately. "It's such a good thing. I want to use it every day. Boss Lin, your rose essential oil is so good! It's much better than those international brands. If you open a skincare company selling rose essential oil, you can definitely sell it all over the world, and you have to sell it at a high price."
"I suspect you came to see me just for the candy." Lin Anran shook his head and laughed.
Wang Simei immediately said, "I'm telling the truth. Boss Lin, we're all optimistic about the rose essential oil you make. Everyone in our circle is asking how we can buy it from you. If you could sell it to customers, instead of just using it in your beauty salon, you'd definitely be in big demand. Since you've been away recently, many people from Hong Kong have been coming to your beauty salon to spend money. Did you know about this?"
Lin Anran shook his head: "I know."
Yuan Fei temporarily managed the beauty salon on her behalf and was very diligent and responsible. Yuan Fei was also a capable person. When the beauty salon began to receive wealthy women from Hong Kong, Yuan Fei called Lin Anran as soon as possible. Lin Anran was traveling outside, but she did not completely abandon her career.
"My mother said it would be great if you could open a beauty salon in Hong Kong." Wang Simei sighed. The Wang family came to the mainland from Hong Kong to develop. Although the Wang family's development center has been moved to the mainland, the Wang family still often goes back to Hong Kong.
Lin Anran seemed to be thinking about something. Compared to Shenzhen, there are more people in Hong Kong who can afford high consumption. Hong Kong is developing rapidly now and the salaries of Hong Kong people are very high. If he opens a beauty salon in Hong Kong, he might really be able to make more money.
But it was a big step. She had just started out in Shenzhen, and she didn't know how she would fare in Hong Kong.
"Thank you for your kind suggestion. This is the rose essential oil I made before. Although the effect is not as good as that of the beauty salon, it works well. You can take it back and try it." Lin Anran gave Wang Simei a large bottle of rose essential oil.
Wang Simei was so happy that she held the rose essential oil tightly and smiled with great pride. She thought it was a good decision for her to come here. She didn't expect to have such an unexpected surprise!
"It doesn't matter if the results are different, it will definitely work!" Wang Simei said happily, "I'll help you try it out and see if it works!"
Wang Simei wanted to pay, but Lin Anran refused: "If it's a gift for you, then it's yours."
Wang Simei returned with a full load, which made Lin Anran shake his head helplessly.
"Sister!" Lin Anli and Lin Anhua knew that Lin Anran was going home today, and both wanted to come back to see her. Lin Anran simply asked Zhang Yan to drive to pick them up for dinner, and then send them to school and work after dinner. As soon as the twins saw Lin Anran, they ran over happily.
Lin Anran looked at Lin Anli. The girl brought a test paper with her when she returned home. She was still studious and in good spirits. Then he looked at Lin Anhua. The latter was even more energetic. It seemed that he was doing very well as a chef's apprentice in the restaurant kitchen and had a successful career.
"You're back just in time. I brought you some specialties from Qiongzhou, Shanghai and Beijing as gifts. See if you like them." Lin Anran waved his hand and asked the twins to come over.
They definitely liked it, especially Lin Anhua, because most of the local specialties were food, and he ate the most happily, his mouth never stopping. Lin Anli curiously asked Lin Anran how Qiongzhou, Shanghai, and Beijing were doing...
Aunt Zhong prepared dinner, and the table was full of dishes, but there were five of them, so they finished it all in the end.
The twins happened to be there, so Lin Anran simply called the Lin family back. Now she called the Lin family directly. The Lin family and the Yang family had partnered to expand their business. After the two families discussed, Lin's mother decided to move the family to the town and build a factory in the town. The town government was happy to see a factory opened in the town to solve the employment problem of some people and provide tax revenue. Although the Lin family did not have many connections, the Yang family did, so the two families built the factory in the town smoothly and then expanded it. The factory had a telephone, and the Lin family now also had a telephone line, making it very convenient to make calls.
Lin Anran picked a good time. Lin's mother and the others happened to be at home, so it was Lin's mother who answered the phone. She could hear her mother's familiar voice: "Anran, are you back in Shenzhen?"
"Yes, Mom, I'm back. Anli and Anhua are both here with me. The three of us just finished dinner, so it's a good time to call home." Lin Anran said with a smile.
On the other end of the phone, Mother Lin was stunned for a moment, then said happily, "Are you three having dinner together? Your uncle and I are having dinner right now. There are so many people gathered at our house today, it's so lively!"
"Is everyone here? It's so lively, it's a pity I'm not here." Lin Anhua was very close and heard it, and answered loudly.
Lin Anli said, "Mom, when we get home, let's have dinner together and have some fun together."
Mother Lin said happily, "Okay, okay, okay! Anli, study hard, Anhua, learn cooking from your master, and both of you listen to Anran. Anran, take your time with your partner and see what kind of person he is..."
Mother Lin started nagging, but Lin Anran and the other two were not impatient and listened carefully. From time to time, Father Lin responded to Mother Lin's voice, and occasionally they could hear Brother Lin talking, as well as the voices of other people. It was indeed very lively.
Lin Anran chatted with Uncle Yang for a while, mainly about Yang Liang and the others. After listening to Lin Anran's analysis, Uncle Yang said, "Anran, you see more and further than we do in Shenzhen. We don't understand anything back home, so we can't help you. We won't hold you back. Just do what you have to do. Your second cousin's son is capable, but he's a man without big ideas and his vision isn't great. But the good thing about him is that he listens to advice. If you're happy, you can guide them. If not, let them go ahead. After all, we've built a family business back home, so you'll always have food to eat when you return."
Lin Anran: "Okay, uncle, I know."
Yang Liang did listen to the advice and wholeheartedly believed that she was the God of Wealth and had no problems with her character. They were relatives, so it would not be difficult for Lin Anran to lend a hand. She, Yang Liang, and Lu Hong were in a win-win situation, just like the Qiongzhou Company. If Yang Liang, Lu Hong, and others had not gone to Qiongzhou to help her keep an eye on it, Lin Anran's investment would not have been so smooth.
After what happened to the Xue siblings, Lin Anran understood that it is difficult to support a family alone. Yang Liang's people in the Lin family are not useless. She just needs to give them some guidance, and they will stand up instantly without her having to spend time and effort to help. Then she will definitely help them, and it would be best if both families became rich.
Lin's mother and father picked up the phone and told Lin Anran about the factory in their hometown. The two factories sold towels, which was a route of small profits but quick turnover. Although the profit from one towel was small, the volume was large, so the factory was really profitable. They also did not give up the production of hair bands, which also followed the route of small profits but quick turnover. Lin's mother listened to Lin Anran's opinion and learned that the factory also produced other cheap and easy-to-use products. In addition, the styles were good-looking and kept up with the trends in big cities. Everyone was happy to buy their products, and their small factory would continue to recruit workers.
Lin Anran was particularly happy to hear the good news and said, "Then I will continue to send you new magazines for your reference."
After chatting for a while, their call lasted for more than half an hour. Lin Anran said, "Mom and Dad, I'm hanging up now. You and your uncle should continue eating, otherwise the food will get cold."
"Okay!" Mother Lin waited for Lin Anran to hang up the phone with a dazed expression.
Father Lin smiled and put the phone back in Mother Lin's hand: "What's wrong? Are you so happy to hear your daughter calling you mom and dad that you're crazy?"
Mother Lin raised her hand and rubbed her eyes: "I am happy, how can I be stupid?"
Dad Lin rubbed his eyes like Mom Lin did. The couple looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
Father Lin spoke first, "I was thinking, if we send our eldest daughter out alone, she'll probably resent us. She'll be all alone... We were so cruel to send her out then. It's such a mess out there. I was terrified to hear about what Ah Liang went through, but we couldn't go with her."
Mother Lin sighed, "Anran deserves to blame us. It's because we're useless parents that we let four children suffer with us."
But at that time, the eldest daughter Lin Anran looked lifeless, which scared them. They were afraid that she would commit suicide. They had no choice but to think that if they sent the eldest daughter away and away from Lin Village, would she be fine?
After their eldest daughter, Lin Anran, went to Shenzhen, Lin's parents couldn't sleep every day. They would wake up in the middle of the night with dreams, fearing that they would receive bad news. Later, the eldest daughter, probably seeing the outside world, came to her senses, but she also became estranged from them. Although they contacted her from time to time, they never heard her call them "Mom and Dad" again. How could Lin's parents not notice? But they didn't dare to ask. As long as the eldest daughter was fine, that was all that mattered.
Father Lin held Mother Lin's hand and said, "It's all in the past. From now on, our family will be prosperous. Just like An Ran said, we will become rich together and reach the pinnacle of life."
Mother Lin couldn't help but laugh: "You are using An Ran's words to pretend."
"An Ran is my daughter, her father is just borrowing her words."
"Okay, go eat first, otherwise the food will get cold."
"Mom and Dad, come and have dinner!" Brother Lin shouted quickly when he saw his parents talking over there.
"Here I come."
