Business Ticket Standards
Every policy has its own countermeasure.
Jian Jianan knew that this day would definitely come, but she didn't expect that this day would come so soon.
Ever since she knew that her first month's monthly exam results had dropped slightly, the results would be copied to her parents at the same time. By then, Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping would definitely come up with relevant solutions so that Jian Jianan would not put too much thought on other things that would affect his studies.
But Jian Jianan didn't expect that they would come up with such an idea for a business ticket.
"Business ticket?" Jian Jianan repeated it, confirming that these three words, which he had never heard of before, were definitely words created by his parents.
Su Qinxuan smiled and nodded: "Yes, business tickets."
Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping exchanged a glance before continuing, "A business ticket, as the name suggests, is a kind of permission-based pass that your father and I plan to issue at home. Each ticket represents the time you can spend on your business, and each ticket is valid for one hour."
The more Jian Jianan listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He couldn't help but yell, "One hour? One hour is not enough! I was discussing next month's selling points with Sister Tongtong, and three hours have already passed. One hour isn't even enough for us to exchange a few words!"
Su Qinxuan smiled and shrugged. "Then I can't say anything more. After all, your father and I have already decided. One ticket represents one hour. If you use up that ticket, it means you won't have time to spend on business."
Jian Yangping added, "This business ticket is roughly what your mother meant. Each business ticket represents one hour. We will issue you five business tickets every month, which means you can work on our family business for a total of five hours. Once the business ticket is used up, you will no longer be able to participate in discussions and decision-making regarding the family business."
Jian Jianan now roughly understood what a business ticket was. It was something that her parents had come up with specifically for her.
Mom and Dad felt that she had spent too much time and energy on the family business recently and had no time to study, so they issued this thing to restrain themselves.
"But why?" Jian Jianan felt very dissatisfied when he heard the news. Why did his parents do this?
She has been involved in all business decisions of her parents since the founding of Nanbei Group and Shenya Clothing. While gaining an in-depth understanding of all matters, big and small, she also offers advice and contributes her own little bit of strength. This is how she has been doing for so many years. Jian Jianan has only one thing in her mind.
"You are just killing the donkey after it has served its purpose! You are destroying the bridge after crossing it!"
Jian Jianan complained loudly and angrily, "As a parent, shouldn't you support your beloved daughter throughout this whole process? Look at what you're doing now! You're even issuing some kind of business ticket to restrict me. I don't accept it, I really don't accept it!"
Jian Jianan yelled, "Why?"
There are only five business tickets a month, which means that she can only spend five hours in thirty days to participate in the business. This is definitely not enough for Jian Jianan, who has always been casual and goes to her own store whenever she wants.
Su Qinxuan listened to her daughter's rant without getting angry. "Based on the three rules we agreed on during the summer vacation, and the slight drop in your monthly exam score, what's going on? Aren't you convinced? Nannan, are you going to be dishonest?"
When Jian Jianan thought about what she had promised her parents at the beginning of the summer vacation, she immediately felt guilty. Okay, okay, it was indeed her fault first. When she saw the monthly exam report card that had just been handed out, she also felt guilty!
Jian Jianan thought back to last month when she had solemnly promised her parents that she would be able to balance her studies with the family business, and would not neglect her studies because she was worried about the big and small matters of the two groups and was running around every day.
However, transcripts have always been the best proof of academic performance. No matter how Jian Jianan insisted that she could do both, as soon as they saw the academic results, Jian Yangping and Su Qinxuan immediately understood that their daughter, who was promoted to the third year of high school, really could not do both. She was not capable of it!
So, after the first parent-teacher meeting, the two parents came up with a plan to make Jian Jianan increase her enthusiasm for learning and reduce her enthusiasm for the family business. However, talking to her directly would not work. They knew their daughter's character well. Jian Jianan had never been separated from the family business since she was a child. If they just talked to her, she would definitely make a promise on the spot, and would say "um" and "um" to be obedient, but would do something else the moment she turned around.
She has always been very good at implementing the four words "pretend to obey but secretly disobey".
Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping were very worried. They were both very busy, so it was unrealistic for them to be by their daughter's side to supervise her at all times. But if they weren't there to supervise her at all times, Jian Jianan would definitely find all kinds of ways to sneak around and do all kinds of tricks under their noses.
What can I do then?
One night when Su Qinxuan was sleeping, an idea suddenly occurred to him: Oh, they could get a business ticket!
Think about it, you need invoices no matter where you do business. For example, when they complete a contract, they need to take the contract to issue various vouchers and invoices. Only with the vouchers and invoices can they proceed to the next step of work.
Then why don't they use this evidence in their battle of wits and courage with their daughter?
Thus, business tickets came into being.
Jian Jianan looked at her father, then at her mother, cautiously glancing at the expressions on their faces. They both looked very determined. Although their tone was flat, they had thought of everything. The mistakes had been made up for and the back-up plan had been blocked. It seemed that there was no way to change anything. Jian Jianan could only hang her head in dejection, realizing that her parents' minds could not be changed. It seemed that if she wanted to handle business matters in the future, she could only rely on this newly issued business ticket.
But Jian Jianan is not the kind of person who gets scared when encountering setbacks. Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles. She must ask more clearly!
"What kind of business ticket is this? What does it look like?"
Su Qinxuan was prepared and immediately raised her hand for Jian Jianan to take a look.
When Jian Jianan took it and looked at it, he found that it was a piece of colored printed paper with the three big words "Business Ticket" written on the front, as well as a cute little portrait of a family of four. There was also a puppy Fish Maw following at Jian Jianan's feet.
The back of this business invoice was filled with written rules. Jian Jianan saw that it was not much different from what his parents had just said. There was also a line of small words at the end, "The final right of interpretation of this business invoice belongs to Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping."
It's so formal, just to restrain ourselves! Jian Jianan was so angry when he looked at this business invoice. It seemed that his parents had planned to do this a long time ago. It takes time to come up with and implement the rules of the business invoice, and it also takes time to print the business invoice. Maybe the design and layout of this business invoice also had Deng Bitong's handwriting!
Thinking of this, Jian Jianan couldn't help but spit on Deng Bitong, the traitor, and said, "Sister Tongtong, you are such a fool. I have known you for so many years. Not to mention the deep sisterly love, we also have the friendship of revolutionary comrades who fought together!"
But you didn't even inform me of such big news, which caught me off guard today. I didn't know how to deal with it for a while. When I see you next time, I will definitely ask you why you did this!
After reading the business bill, Jian Jianan pondered over the rules again. As the saying goes, "The devil is one foot high, the road is ten feet high." Although mom and dad set various rules on the business bill, Jian Jianan believes that no rule is perfect. The seemingly perfect rules now are just those that she has not discovered any flaws in. Every policy must have loopholes, including the business bill that mom and dad promoted at the dinner table today, targeting only Jian Jianan.
The back of the business ticket was densely packed with rules, but Jian Jianan read it very carefully, not missing a single word. Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping looked at each other, with the same smug smile in their eyes. The old ones are always wise, and hard work pays off. It was worth it for her and her lover to think over and over for several days, perfecting the business ticket step by step. They just didn't believe that with this business ticket policy, Jian Jianan could still spend most of his time on business?
That must be impossible!
In this case, do they still need to worry about Jian Jianan's studies?
"First, each business ticket means that Comrade Jian Jianan can participate in family-related business matters for one hour. The time starts from the time the business ticket is taken out for exchange. After one hour, the business ticket will be invalidated."
"Secondly, there will be a reward and punishment system based on the issuance of five business tickets each month. For every ten places you advance in the exam ranking, you will be rewarded with one business ticket."
Jian Jianan was confused when he saw this. He looked up and asked his parents, "What does this mean? Why don't I understand? Does it mean that the five business invoices each month are just the basics? As long as I do other things well, I can get more business invoices?"
Su Qinxuan nodded appreciatively, "That's right, that's it. Don't you see it very clearly?"
The two of them knew Jian Jianan's character very well. If there were only five fixed business tickets every month and no other reward and punishment measures, Jian Jianan would definitely not exercise his subjective initiative.
So she discussed it with her husband and decided to implement a reward system. For every ten places the daughter's exam ranking rises, she will receive an extra business ticket as a reward. In this way, in order to get more business tickets and have more business time, her daughter will actively study and use all means to improve her academic performance. This is what both parents hope for.
Jian Jianan's face was full of black lines. She finally understood what her parents explained very clearly, but the clearer they explained, the more upset she became.
How can it be so perfect! Do mom and dad think they are some kind of monster?
You, Boss Su Qinxuan, are usually so busy. Yang Tao has come to you to deal with so many things. She almost wants to tie you up in the conference room of the Nanbei Group and make you deal with various documents 24 hours a day. How do you still have time to deal with business tickets?
And you, Mr. Jian Yangping, haven't you been busy with the interest-free loan to build a factory since last year? Didn't you say that without your own clothing production factory, you will always be controlled by others? How can you still have the spare time and energy to focus on perfecting the business plan at such a critical moment?
Jian Jianan collapsed on the chair, looking as if she was dead. Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping chuckled. They seldom saw their daughter with such an expression, and it was quite interesting to see it now.
So cute!
It seems that Jian Jianan has always been a reliable little adult since she was very young. She is always successful in the business world. Sometimes, even the two adults can't think of things at once, but she can react immediately, find out the loopholes and fill them in, saving them a lot of trouble.
But times have changed. Before, when their daughter was a primary school student, the most important thing for their family was to solve the problem of food and clothing. But now Jian Jianan is already a senior high school student. The most important thing for a senior high school student is the college entrance examination. If Jian Jianan misses the opportunity to take the college entrance examination again because of caring about the family business, wouldn't it be a case of losing the big picture for the small, picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons?
Jian Yangping and Su Qinxuan would not allow such a thing to happen, so the issuance of business bills was an urgent matter, and it was also the best method they could think of now.
Jian Jianan pouted, with a bottle of soy sauce hanging from her lips. She looked extremely unhappy and dissatisfied, but what could she do no matter how dissatisfied she was? She knew in her heart that her parents were doing this for her own good. In fact, she also felt that she had gone too far last month. The monthly exam report card that had just been handed out was still in her room, and she felt guilty every time she saw it.
"Okay, okay, that's it. Since you, Mom and Dad, have made up your mind, then the minority must obey the majority. I can only let it go this way."
After his brother Jian Jiabei left for Shenzhen to attend university, there were only three people in the family. With a two-to-one ratio, Jian Jianan had no choice but to obey the decision of Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping, who were on the same front, and was forced to agree to the issuance of the business bill.
It's so miserable! In this world where the strong prey on the weak, you really have to bow your head under the eaves!
Jian Jianan was forced to accept this cruel fact and buried her head in the bowl to eat voraciously. She wanted to conserve her energy, she wanted to eat to become plump and healthy, and she wanted to keep herself energetic so that she could study well in the future school life. She had to concentrate all her energy on studying, and after getting better grades, she could exchange more business tickets from her parents.
Jian Yangping felt completely relieved when he saw his daughter's face full of dissatisfaction but she had to submit under the authority of two adults.
He and his wife had thought so carefully about everything, so there was no way anything could happen to their daughter again, right? No way, no way?
No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Su Qinxuan disagreed with Jian Yangping. She felt her daughter wasn't someone who would give in so quickly. Even though she was quietly drinking the soup, her little brain was definitely working furiously. Who knows what she's up to? It's best not to relax too soon; you need to keep an eye on her.
Jian Jianan finished his meal and stretched out his little hand, "I've finished my meal! Where's this month's business ticket?"
Actually, they were already clamoring for business invoices right after dinner. Su Qinxuan paused and immediately felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry. However, she had made preparations. She had kept the first batch of business invoices at home, and there were dozens of them!
Give my daughter five every month, and she’ll have enough until next year at least!
Su Qinxuan counted the five business invoices for the first month and handed them to her daughter. Jian Jianan took them, turning them over and over in her palm several times, and only when she was sure there were five did she smack her lips and reluctantly put them in her trouser pocket.
My mom is so mean. Couldn’t she give me some leeway in the first month? If she said five tickets, it must be five. Couldn’t she give me one or two more when she handed them to me? Anyway, they were sandwiched inside the tickets, and my dad couldn’t see clearly from such a distance!
"Five cards are not enough..." Jian Jianan could not hide the disappointment on his face. He had not given up his last hope yet. He used the puppy eyes attack and looked at the adults in front of him with the expression he learned from Fish Maw, hoping that they could change their minds at the last minute and retract this democratic policy.
"Are you really so heartless? I've never suffered such injustice since I was a child. I will definitely study hard in the future. Mom and Dad, please take it back."
Jian Jianan lowered her voice and begged in a coquettish manner, but the two adults opposite were already heartless, especially Su Qinxuan, who had specifically instructed Jian Yangping before dinner today to firmly implement their policy and stick to the original plan no matter what. He must not change his mind just because his daughter said a soft word, otherwise it would really harm Nan Nan.
"Really? Really? Mom and Dad, you said it before. Five cards aren't enough. Ten is at least necessary. Let me do the math. There are thirty days in a month, which means seven hundred and twenty hours. I only have five hours of business time a month, which is only about 0.006 percent. This number is terrible no matter which market you look at. Why not increase it to ten hours, or even twenty hours!"
Su Qinxuan: "Five hours isn't enough?"
Jian Jianan nodded and looked at Su Qinxuan with hopeful eyes, "Yes, yes, it's really not enough, mom, mom, please extend the time a little bit, please, please, please!"
Su Xingxuan stretched out his words, "In that case, then you should study hard. The next exam should be in three weeks if I remember correctly. As long as your ranking rises, you will have more business tickets. If you rise fifty places in the rankings, you will have five business tickets, which will be more than enough by then!"
Jian Jianan: "..."
Mom, when did you learn to trick me? Who taught you bad things? Stand up, I promise I won’t beat him to death!
Jian Jianan retracted his forward leaning body, sat back in his chair, and said sullenly: "Okay, okay, I will work hard. I will definitely work hard for my business ticket!"
Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping were satisfied only after getting their daughter's guarantee.
Seeing that everyone had finished eating, Jian Yangping took it upon himself to clear the dishes and wash them in the kitchen. Their business was so big that hiring a nanny or servants was a no-brainer, but the adults felt it was unnecessary and a waste of money. After all, Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping spent at least twenty-eight of their thirty-day month away from home.
There is also Jian Jianan. She is at school from Monday to Friday and only comes home on weekends. The remaining housework can be completed by the three of them each doing a little bit, so there is no need to spend extra money to hire someone.
Seeing his father taking the dishes and about to leave, Jian Jianan suddenly called out to him, "Wait a minute, Dad, how did you make this business invoice? Do you have any extra business invoices? Where are they?"
Jian Yangping slowly answered his daughter, "Well, I'm not afraid to tell you, this is actually woodblock printing, inspired by ancient movable type printing. Your mother and I first designed the business invoice on a blueprint, then found a master craftsman who specializes in wood carving and has over a decade of experience to help us carve it. Then we printed it on a piece of paper."
"Oh, I see." Jian Jianan thought thoughtfully. So that's how it is~
Doesn't that mean the principle behind the printing of business bills is similar to that of currency? The engraved wooden block is the source, and once you have that source, and buy some ink and paper, you can print as many business bills as you want, right?
But what Jian Jianan can think of, wouldn’t his two parents think of it?
Su Qinxuan must have planned this all along. Seeing her daughter's face inexplicably smiling, she immediately knew what she was thinking, so she said slowly, "This wooden board is in our Nanbei Group's safe. It can't be opened without the key and password."
Jian Yangping added, "Yes, the safe was custom-made by a master craftsman from the province. It's a bank-style safe, very safe. At least with current means and technology, it's absolutely impossible to open it without violent means."
Su Qinxuan put her hands on her hips and said, "There are two keys. One is with me."
Jian Yangping crossed his arms and said, "The other one is with me."
The two parents said in unison: "Only when two keys are inserted into the lock can we open the safe and get the engraving template."
Jian Jianan suddenly collapsed on the dining table as if he had lost all hope. God is going to kill me! God is going to kill me!
Why are all the escape routes I thought of blocked by my parents?
She raised her head and looked at her parents dimly: "As parents, can't you have a little trust in your daughter? There is true love in the world. Is it necessary for you to guard me so closely?"
Su Qinxuan pursed her lips tightly, fearing that she would burst into laughter the next second if she didn't. However, seeing that her daughter didn't look in a very good mental state, it would be better not to stimulate her too much.
"I think that the fact that you can ask this question means that it is very necessary."
Jian Yangping also said the same thing as his wife: "That's right, someone without ideas would never ask this question. Once you ask this question, it means you are a person with ideas."
Jian Jianan sighed leisurely, "Alright, alright. Since your security measures are very strict, then I'm relieved. Don't worry, Mom and Dad. Don't think too much. I was just careless and curious, so I said that. Isn't it also because I'm worried that your security measures are not strict enough?"
Explanation is a cover-up, but neither Su Qinxuan nor Jian Yangping intended to expose their daughter. Su Qinxuan nodded and said, "Alright, then this matter is settled. The business ticket policy will be officially implemented in our family starting today. You have just received five student tickets, which is the first day of the official implementation. The organization hopes that Comrade Jian Jianan can achieve better results in the upcoming monthly exams and obtain more business tickets."
Jian Jiannan responded indifferently: "Okay, okay."
Jian Yangping went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. He whispered to his wife who was washing dishes beside him, "I see Nannan is lying on the table now. It seems that she has accepted this reality. This time it was quite smooth, without many twists and turns. It really exceeded my expectations. I thought Nannan would jump up and object when I announced the business ticket to her later, but now it seems that she is not too bad. It was a bit too smooth."
Su Qinxuan went into the kitchen not to wash dishes with Jian Yangping, they just wanted to have some private conversation between husband and wife. After hearing what her husband said, Su Qinxuan did not agree immediately, but turned her head to look at Jian Jianan who was sitting on the sofa and staring at the void with an expressionless face.
She watched her daughter's eyes flicker for a moment, not knowing what she was thinking. Then she turned to her husband and said, "That's not necessarily true. Have you forgotten that our daughter isn't the type to just accept things passively? She seems to have accepted all our business ticket policies, but she just didn't react for a moment. Plus, we came in so aggressively and handled things so carefully, it caught her off guard. That's why she reacted this way. Do you believe that if she takes a few days to calm down? No, not even a few days, maybe tomorrow, she'll realize it. Then she'll find out where we didn't anticipate any mistakes and use them to get more business tickets for herself?"
Jian Yangping was sweating profusely as he listened. He was a little suspicious, "No way, would Nan Nan really do this? Why do I feel like you're not talking about our daughter, but a business competitor?"
She hasn't reacted yet, but once she reacts, she will seek benefits for herself. This doesn't sound like what the daughter of a senior high school student should do.
Su Qinxuan laughed and glanced at Jian Yangping angrily, "I'm her mother, she's my daughter. As her mother, don't I know what my daughter is thinking?"
She pointed at Jian Jianan's figure and said, "Don't look at her sitting on the sofa now, as if she has lost all hope. But do you believe that her little brain is working at full speed, just waiting to find any mistakes?"
Jian Yangping glanced at the living room in the direction of his wife's finger and nodded, "I believe that."
After she finished speaking, she became a little nervous again and quickly confirmed with her wife: "I think we have thought it through very carefully. Xiaoqin, please help me think carefully again. Were there really any mistakes or omissions that we didn't anticipate? If these mistakes are caught by Nan Nan, then wouldn't our business tickets be wasted?"
Su Qinxuan comforted him, "Okay, Brother Yang, don't be too nervous. We have thought about it for several days and have thought of every possibility. We are very thorough and believe that we can deal with most of Nan Nan's problems."
Jian Yangping hadn't completely let go of his worry when he heard Su Qinxuan change the subject. "But, after all, we are human, not gods. It's normal for there to be unexpected mistakes and omissions. If Nan Nan can really smell something that can be exploited from the densely packed business invoice rules we wrote and find a loophole to exploit, then we have to admit it. After all, we are not as skilled as others."
After Su Qinxuan finished her last sentence, she glanced at her daughter who was sitting in the living room, wondering what she was thinking. If that day really came, she thought about how she would feel.
She couldn't be angry at all. Su Qinxuan thought carefully. If her daughter could really find the mistakes, she would be looking forward to it and would be very proud of herself.
Jian Yangping sighed deeply, seemingly complaining but actually showing off. "Hey, what other family's daughter is like our Nan Nan? She has so many weird ideas in her head every day, and she even forced me and you to take time out of our busy schedules to come up with a business ticket issuance method. Just tell me, can you find someone like her around you?"
"So, this is our one and only daughter!"
Jian Jianan didn't know about the secret conversation between her parents in the kitchen. When she received the five business tickets for the first month, she immediately had the idea of using them.
The next day, she came to Shenya Clothing Factory.
Deng Bitong, who was drawing clothing designs in the studio, was neither happy nor scared when she saw Jian Jianan. Instead, she blurted out, "You're here. Where's your ticket? You need a ticket to come in."
Jian Jianan was very upset and took out a business bill and handed it to Deng Bitong.
She knew it, she knew it! It didn't make sense that Mom and Dad would only know about the business invoice among the three of us. They must have told the people around them!
After Deng Bitong took the business ticket, she did not put it away immediately. Instead, she held it up and rubbed it, unfolding it continuously, and even held it up to the light to confirm whether it was real or fake.
Jian Jianan: "..."
"Sister Tongtong." Jian Jianan couldn't help but speak, "I remember that the last time you received a hundred-yuan bill, you didn't examine it as carefully as you do now, right?"
Deng Bitong smiled awkwardly, "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this is just an old habit of mine that I've always been very careful and cautious about."
Jian Yangping told her that a real business ticket would have a steel stamp badge on it. Deng Bitong had just looked at it and confirmed that this was a real business ticket.
"Is this necessary?" Jian Jianan frowned and said unhappily.
Deng Litong originally thought that this was unnecessary. She remembered that after listening to Jian Yangping's words, she asked the same question as Jian Jianan.
But Jian Yangping replied seriously, "You'll understand once you see it."
Deng Bitong finally realized today that Jian Yangping's concerns weren't entirely groundless. Jian Jianan was constantly pestering her about how to identify a genuine business invoice. Perhaps once she figured out how to identify it, she could immediately forge one.
After all, this is not a difficult task for Jian Jianan at all!
After Deng Bitong finally managed to laugh it off and divert Jian Jianan's attention, the two of them ended the topic of business tickets and turned to talk about Shen Ya's recent major event: the interest-free loan for building a factory.
"I remember that the last loan should be issued next month. Have you and my dad decided on the location of the new factory?" Jian Jianan asked Deng Bitong.
Deng Bitong replied, "We've been looking around for a long time and have looked at almost every major site in Shenzhen. We've chosen about three or four locations, but we haven't agreed on a price yet. Each of these three locations has its own advantages and disadvantages. Your father is currently negotiating prices with the owners of these three plots of land. We'll see if we can get a good price."
"Okay, then..."
They continued talking, so engrossed that they forgot the time. Jian Jianan had no idea that it was almost an hour.
"What about the last piece of land? How much is the price for the last piece of land?"
Jian Jianan was so engrossed in her conversation that when she asked the last question, she lowered her head to look at the address on the drawing. She didn't notice the expression and movements on Deng Bitong's face, and thus missed her action of checking the time on her watch.
Jian Jianan lowered his head and waited for a long time for Deng Bitong to answer the question, so he raised his head and looked over curiously, only to see Deng Bitong with a serious face, tightly pursing her lips, and a look of struggle on her face.
Jian Jianan was curious: "Sister Tongtong, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell, or did you eat something bad this morning and now you have diarrhea? Do you want to go to the bathroom? If so, go quickly. I'll wait for you here."
Deng Bitong said seriously, "It's time."
"What time?" Jian Jiangnan didn't react for a moment.
She pointed to the watch on her wrist and motioned Jian Nan to look at it. "One hour. From the moment you just got the business ticket and I took it, it has been exactly one hour now."
Jian Jianan almost fainted. "Oh my God! Oh my God! When you were dating Wen Xiu before, I didn't realize you had such a good sense of time! How come you can't even spend a minute here?!"
Deng Bitong felt a little shy when she heard Jian Jianan talking about her boyfriend. "That wasn't love. It's different from doing business now. It's not the same thing. It's easy to forget the time when you're kissing. Besides, Qi Wenxiu and I don't need a kissing ticket. Your father has told me many times about business tickets. I must remember it to take good care of you."
Jian Jianan looked at Deng Bitong eagerly: "Can't you be flexible? It's only been a minute, and I'll just ask one last question. Sister Tongtong, can't you just answer me?"
Jian Jianan approached Deng Bitong, held up four fingers and swore to the sky, "Really? I promise you, this matter will be known to heaven, earth, you, and me, and no fifth person will know about it. I won't even tell my father."
Who would have thought that Deng Bitong seemed to be entangled by some dirty thing, and the moment Jian Jianan approached, she hurriedly jumped backwards.
"No, no, no, absolutely not, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely not!"
Deng Bitong said several absolutes in a row, "Your father has repeatedly told me about this matter. He also told me that you are at a critical stage in your college entrance exams. If you fail to get into university and learn management knowledge, we will all be sinners."
Jian Jianan was speechless. Was there any need to be so exaggerated? It sounded as if her life would be ruined if she failed to get into university. She looked at Deng Bitong angrily and wanted to say something else.
I saw a complicated look on her sister Tongtong's face. She stared into the void with a look of longing and a hint of sadness. "College, college is a great place... Too bad I haven't been to college yet. When I was in junior high, my teacher said I wasn't smart enough to study. Plus, I couldn't get into high school, so my parents didn't let me go anymore. To be honest, I don't even know what college is like."
After Deng Bitong finished her sigh, she turned around and looked at Jian Jianan, "Nannan, if you go to college next year, you can enjoy college life and make up for your sister Tongtong's regret. When you come back from vacation, you must tell your sister Tongtong about that wonderful college life!"
Jian Jianan has always been soft-hearted and did not respond to harsh words. She had not expected Deng Bitong to say this. Now that she felt the regret and yearning in Deng Bitong's words, she could not say anything harsh.
She was a little embarrassed. "Okay, okay, then what do I have to do in order for you to tell me the address of the third store?"
Deng Bitong blinked. "Of course you'll need to take out the second business invoice. Isn't that what business invoices are used for?"
Jian Jianan gritted his teeth, took out the second business ticket from his trouser pocket, and handed it to his sister Tongtong with great force, "Here, I'll extend it for another hour!"
Deng Bitong beamed, "Okay, okay, boss is so generous, boss is so generous! Nannan, when you gave me the business bill, it was quite like your dad spending money on fabric!"
Facts have proved that what our ancestors said makes sense and we cannot stand listening to nice words.
Jian Jianan was coaxed by Deng Bitong into working for a third hour after the second one in the afternoon. When she came out of the Shen Ya Clothing Store factory in a daze, only two of the five business invoices that had just been issued yesterday were left in her hand.
She stood on the street outside the factory, holding the only two remaining business invoices, her mind a mess. "How did they disappear? Weren't there five just now? Now there are only two left?"
