Jianjiabei College Entrance Examination
“Interest-free loan?”
Deng Bitong frowned in thought. She had seen this incident in the newspaper before.
After the reform and opening up, the whole country focused on economic development and vigorously developed the economy, and introduced a number of policies to encourage people from all walks of life to bravely start their own businesses.
This includes this interest-free loan.
Deng Bitong hesitated, not remembering if she had remembered it correctly. "Isn't the interest-free loan the policy where you borrow money for free and don't have to pay any extra interest after you repay it?"
Jian Jianan nodded, "Yes, that's it!"
Deng Bitong racked her brains, trying to dig out more information about this policy.
"Hmm... I've seen this news in the newspaper before, but I can't quite remember it now."
She didn't take it seriously when she read it, but just had a general understanding of the specific content of the policy.
However, now, suddenly hearing Jian Jianan talking about interest-free loans, it seems from her expression that her father is also very interested and wants to take advantage of this policy to develop Shen Ya even bigger.
"But why?"
Deng Bitong frowned, puzzled. "Why don't we just take it one step at a time? Shen Ya is at its peak right now. If things keep going this way, I don't even need to think too much about it. It's bound to get even better! Is there any need to rush like this?"
Jian Jianan didn't directly answer Deng Bitong's question. Instead, she suddenly asked, "By the way, Sister Tongtong, do you remember how long Shen Ya has been established?"
Deng Bitong thought for a moment and replied, "If you count from the time I met you, it's been almost a year!"
Jian Jianan nodded: "Well, it has been more than a year since our Shenya was founded."
"Sister Tongtong, even though this year seems short, just over 300 days, a lot of things happened in this one year!"
"Take the second half of last year, for example! In the first half, we had just established Shenya and encountered many problems, but we resolved them early on. After partnering with Aunt Fang, pirated clothing has disappeared. I can't say it's completely gone, but compared to before, it's definitely become much less."
"The second half of the year wasn't all smooth sailing either. We at Shenya were at our peak, but it was too eye-catching. Our sales doubled in the second half of the year, not just doubled, but multiplied several times. But problems also followed. Even if we dealt with Fang Ruoyan, there were still other pirates popping up!"
"Also, besides the issue of piracy, other original brands should not be underestimated. Piracy is easy to deal with. As long as it's plagiarism, we can follow the old examples, just like we did last year. However, the same cannot be said for original brands. We can only compete fairly."
Jian Jiannanyue said that Deng Bitong's expression became more and more solemn. She had also been paying attention to the rise of original brands from the second half of last year to the beginning of this year.
Shenzhen has a unique geographical location and is close to Hong Kong. It doesn't make sense that they are the only clothing brand that knows how to capitalize on the fashion trends of their neighbors and others don't.
After Shen Ya's rise, many people saw that the clothing industry was profitable and began to follow its example.
Hong Kong style is no longer Shenya’s signature style!
Jian Jianan saw the relief on Deng Bitong's face and immediately struck while the iron was hot, "Isn't that right? Sister Tongtong, think about what I said, doesn't it make sense? We can't always be suppressed and beaten by others, right? Although we are now cooperating with Fang Ruoyan, I have never trusted her. Otherwise, Dad wouldn't have been looking for other suitable garment factories to see if we can cooperate."
From what Jian Jianan vaguely heard, Fang Ruoyan has always wanted to get people from Yanran Garment Factory to come and work in Shenya, under the pretext of "conducting friendly exchange practices." But don't think that Jian Jianan doesn't know what Fang Ruoyan's plan is. Isn't she just trying to poach people?
Yanran Garment Factory is the second party, working according to the orders placed by Shenya Clothing. It will never be as refreshing as being the boss!
"But it's not good to always rely on others for support. It's better to take a chance on yourself and own an independent garment factory. That's the best option!"
Jian Jiannan softened her tone to persuade Deng Bitong, and she described a beautiful dream to Deng Bitong.
"Think about it, Sister Tongtong. When we have our own garment factory in the future, won't it be very convenient to make clothes? Although our current factory and warehouse are expanding, they are still not as large as a factory."
"Once Shen Ya has established its own garment factory, Sister Tongtong, you can do whatever you want. You can make any kind of clothes you want. No one will stand in your way! You are the chief designer of Shen Ya. Won't you be second only to the chief designer?"
Deng Bitong was immediately captivated by the beautiful future described by Jian Jianan, and couldn't help but think along the lines of what she said.
Yes, it would be great if I could have my own garment factory!
Deng Bitong immediately thought of her collaboration with Fang Ruoyan in the second half of last year.
Ever since Fang Ruoyan realized that the trend was unstoppable and piracy was something that everyone was condemning, and her scale was so large, if the higher-ups wanted to make an example, they would definitely use her as a target. By then, not only would her factory be confiscated, she might even lose her life and property. So she established a deep cooperation with Shen Ya.
But no matter how deep the cooperation is, they are not a family after all. How can the employees below get along with each other?
Obviously not.
Therefore, the contradiction here inevitably arises.
First of all, there is Deng Bitong. She is a perfectionist, and her perfectionism is also reflected in her clothes. She will never put unqualified perfect clothes on the shelves.
Therefore, every time Deng Bitong went to Yanran Garment Factory, she would almost always quarrel with the person in charge of the factory.
Manager: "What bullshit are you talking about! This is not okay, that is not okay. It's just a piece of clothing with a small problem, and you're dragging it into all kinds of value issues. Are you trying to kill me? I've been here for so long and I've never seen a designer as picky as you!"
Deng Bitong showed no sign of weakness. "Well, now you've seen it! There are so many loose threads on this dress, and the seams underneath aren't evenly aligned. It's completely different from the requirements of our contract, and you still have the nerve to accuse me of nitpicking. Of course, it's fine with you, but if I agree and allow clothes like this to enter the market, it will damage Shenya's reputation!"
This is roughly the conflict between the two groups.
But this is normal. After all, Yanran Garment Factory started out by producing counterfeit clothes, and the employees in their factory don't like such high-intensity work.
In their opinion, if you can make money by counterfeiting, why should you spend so much time and energy to make genuine clothes?
Although Fang Ruoyan now has to decide to transform under the iron fist of the times, the people under her do not understand, so naturally this conflict is inevitable.
Deng Bitong thought about this and complained to Jian Jianan repeatedly, "Nannan, you don't understand, those people seem to not understand what I say. I say east and they go west. They ignore my words all day long. But, I can't really get angry and leave everything alone. I still have to go back and give in to them to solve the problem. If, I mean if, we really can have our own factory, this problem will definitely be greatly improved. Moreover, we don't have to rely on others anymore and worry that Fang Ruoyan will jump the queue for the next order because a big client has come, delaying our clothing production plan."
Jian Jianan is still frightened by what Deng Bitong is talking about now. The situation at that time is so scary that it makes people scared even when they think about it now.
At that time, Shen Ya had already placed an order with Yanran Garment Factory in advance, paid the deposit, and Fang Ruoyan had agreed, and the employees were about to start work.
As a result, because other big customers cut in line temporarily and because this big customer offered too much money, Fang Ruoyan suddenly decided to postpone Shen Ya's order. Even so, Fang Ruoyan still wanted to conceal this news by all means!
Later, Deng Bitong, who had been supervising the work, found out about it and brought the matter to the two big bosses of both parties, exposing Fang Ruoyan's dishonesty and finally forcing her to act in accordance with the contract.
But after going through this, who wouldn’t be scared!
If this happens every time, no one can stand it!
It is impossible for Deng Bitong to go to the garment factory every time to watch their every move. Fang Ruoyan is such a scary person. In her mind, business ethics are as non-existent.
Moreover, even if she has a good character, other people's garment factories are still not as comfortable as her own.
Deng Bitong's eyes sparkled, and she kept whispering something. Jian Jianan waited for a long time but didn't hear her sister Tongtong's answer. He simply leaned closer to her head and finally heard what Deng Bitong vaguely said, "I need a big office for the garment factory, and mannequins, ten or eight mannequins. Models, and models can't be missed. I want to hire eighteen models to wear my clothes for the catwalk..."
Jian Jianan: "..."
Sister Tongtong, you are imagining the future, right?
But it's also good. In this way, Deng Bitong will be completely pulled into Jian Jianan's camp. If Jian Yangping disagrees, she can send Deng Bitong to persuade her father.
Deng Bitong muttered to herself, "That's right, Nannan, you're right. We should have our own garment factory. Now is a great time to expand. Shen Ya has only been established for a year and already has such huge potential. I can imagine its future development will be very good. Not to mention now that this policy has been introduced, isn't it another boost for us?"
Jian Jianan nodded seriously as he listened, "That's right, Sister Tongtong, you have a good idea." Jian Jianan pushed the flyer in his hand over at the right time. On the large A4 paper were four clear words written in black and white: interest-free loan.
Deng Bitong suddenly reacted, "Okay, your parents are not here to celebrate the New Year at your house, so I'll leave first. I'll come back and tell you if there's anything else."
Deng Bitong did not leave empty-handed. When she left, she did not forget to take the interest-free policy flyer that Jian Jianan took out.
"Good luck and good fortune, take care, Sister Tongtong!"
Jian Jianan saw her off to the door and said goodbye, "That's it, Sister Tongtong. I'll be waiting for your good news at home!"
Deng Bitong turned around nonchalantly and waved towards Jian Jianan. "Okay, okay, no problem. Just wait for my good news at home! I must convince Brother Jian to learn more about this policy!"
Jian Jianan was satisfied and went back home to continue reading and studying.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, besides her, the only one at home was her brother who was studying hard in his room. However, Jian Jianan did not return to the room after seeing Deng Bitong off, because she had guests coming to visit later!
Speak of the devil and he appears. Jian Jianan had just returned to sit on the sofa for more than ten minutes when the doorbell rang again.
The noise outside made Jian Jiabei, who was working hard in the room, gasp in surprise. What was wrong with his sister? She was like a sociable little bee, flying diligently in all kinds of colorful worlds. The previous guest had just left, and the next guest came.
If the guests who came to see Jian Jianan were not all women, Jian Jiabei would have thought that his sister was possessed by some evil spirit and he would have to step in to deal with it.
But now...
Jian Jiabei lowered his eyes and looked at the cultural knowledge textbooks in front of him. The third round of college entrance examination review was just around the corner, so he should worry more about himself!
It doesn't make sense that his parents and sister have worked so hard to create an environment suitable for studying for the college entrance examination, but he doesn't know how to cherish it.
"Teacher Zhu!" Jian Jianan opened the door and said happily when he saw the newcomer, "Teacher Zhu, I made an appointment with you in advance and thought it would be inconvenient for you. I didn't expect you to come right after I mentioned it."
Zhu Xue smiled and replied, "Hey, I'm fine staying in the dorm anyway. It's so boring, so I might as well come over and take some lessons with you."
This was true. Zhu Xue lowered her eyes. Although she had other relatives at home, it was as if they were dead now that things had come to that point. Besides, it would be boring during the New Year, so she might as well take advantage of the opportunity to work as a tutor and earn some money. Anyway, Jian Jianan had told her that tutoring during the holidays would earn her three times the salary.
Jian Jianan curled his eyes and said, "That's great, Teacher Zhu, please come in!"
Zhu Xue came in to change her shoes while looking around the environment. It can be seen that this small family had decorated carefully during the Chinese New Year, with couplets and window decorations, creating a very festive atmosphere during the Chinese New Year.
Speaking of which, Jian Jianan is one of the most diligent students he has ever seen.
No matter how much a child loves studying, at least during the Chinese New Year, they finally have a few days off to have a good rest, and they will definitely not focus on studying. But on the other hand, Jian Jianan, the New Year hasn't even passed yet, and the balloons and red lanterns on the streets haven't been taken down, but Jian Jianan has already made an appointment with himself to go to class.
When Zhu Xue received the message from Jian Jianan yesterday, she was very surprised. She thought Jian Jianan had sent it to the wrong person, and went to confirm with the parents in disbelief.
Su Qinxuan replied, "It wasn't a mistake, Teacher Xiaoxue. Our Nannan is just like that. You'll get used to it. She's a good kid who loves to learn, especially economics. So, Teacher Xiaoxue, please don't be surprised."
How could Zhu Xue not be surprised? According to Su Qinxuan, Jian Jianan was already learning professional knowledge before he even went to college. Which kid nowadays is the same as Jian Jianan!
But after all, this was a client, and I was just here to tutor, so it wasn't convenient for me to say anything more. As long as the money was paid and the goods were delivered, that was all that was needed. Zhu Xue thought so and started today's teaching class.
"Nannan, let's learn some professional economic terms today..."
As Zhu Xue spoke, she took out all the teaching materials and lesson plans and placed them on the table.
Jian Jianan had no time to act naughty at this time. She had always been very serious and focused in her studies, and nothing else could attract her attention.
"Okay, Teacher Xiaoxue, but I still don't understand the term you just mentioned. Could you explain it again?"
Zhu Xue: "Of course, the so-called financing system refers to..."
The three-hour class passed in a flash, and the class that Jian Jianan had booked for today has come to an end. Zhu Xue finished today's class and prepared to take a break. She would take a breath and rest here for a while before going home.
Jian Jianan was not idle even when Zhu Xue finished the class and took a breath. She was checking her notes to see if there was anything she didn't understand so that she could bring it up while Zhu Xue was still there.
Today's class will be officially over only after Jian Jianan's tea leak is filled.
Seeing Zhu Xue stand up and prepare to pack her things, Jian Jianan suddenly handed her a red envelope, "Sister Xiaoxue, don't leave in a hurry. This is a red envelope from my mother. Happy New Year!"
Zhu Xue was stunned. She took it in disbelief, tears welling in her eyes. "It's a red envelope. A red envelope for me?"
Although the Chinese New Year is so lively this year, she has never received a red envelope from anyone else. This is the first time she has received a red envelope, and it was from a student who is not related to her by blood.
Zhu Xue's first reaction was to refuse. "This... this isn't good. I don't deserve a reward without merit. I don't have any special skills, so how can I accept your red envelope? Besides, I'm paid to be your tutor, not working for free, so there's no need for a red envelope."
Jian Jianan's attitude was very firm. Seeing that Zhu Xue had no intention of accepting the red envelope, she simply stood up, walked over to Zhu Xue, and stuffed the red envelope directly into her trouser pocket. Zhu Xue had no time to stop her and could only listen to Jian Jianan stuffing the red envelope while saying, "Teacher Xiaoxue, please don't refuse! Giving out red envelopes and red envelopes is a very normal behavior in Guangdong! Don't take it too seriously. For us Guangdong people, whenever there is a happy event, no matter how big or small, our first reaction is to give out red envelopes and share the joy with others. What's more, this year is Chinese New Year, so red envelopes must be given!"
Jian Jianan finally stuffed the red envelope in, still complaining, "I'm not saying this, Teacher Xiaoxue, the pockets on your pants are too small. How can you put things in them? You should buy bigger pants next time, otherwise, if you run into this situation again, it will be inconvenient to put things in!"
Zhu Xue: “…”
Does this mean that I will be able to live a life of receiving red envelopes every day in the future?
Zhu Xue wanted to refuse again, "You are still a child, and you are giving me a red envelope. This is so inappropriate."
What made Zhu Xue feel even more embarrassed was that she had no idea that there was such a custom here, or her family had never reminded her of this point to pay attention to. Therefore, when she came to teach Jian Jianan on the first day of the new year today, she did not prepare any red envelopes at all.
Who would have thought that there would be countermeasures from above and policies from below? Jian Jianan's words put an end to Zhu Xue's final struggle. "Why are you so polite? If I'm just a child to you, then aren't you, Teacher Xiaoxue, also a junior to my mother? Then isn't it only natural for my mother to prepare a red envelope for you, her junior?"
Jian Jianan noticed the struggle on Zhu Xue's face and soothed her heart with his last words, "If you're really embarrassed, you can stay a little longer when you come to teach me later! Let's chat more. I'm quite interested in college life!"
Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Zhu Xue could only purse her lips and reveal a faint smile, "Well, okay. You don't have to wait until next time. You can ask now. As long as I know, I will tell you everything."
It seems that she has found a good family for her first tutoring job. Zhu Xue heard from her classmates that when other people went out to tutor, their lives were not as smooth as they are now.
They have also encountered many unexpected situations, such as the employer thinking that you are not able to teach the children well and deliberately deducting your wages on the grounds that you have taught the children badly; or the price has been agreed upon, but the employer feels that it is not worth the price at all, so he wants to deduct the wages when settling the wages at the end.
But this situation would not happen in Jian Jianan's family. When Su Qinxuan hired Zhu Xue as a tutor, she had already made it clear.
"It's two days a week on the weekends, a total of eight hours, eight dollars an hour, and the salary is paid once a day. Is that a problem?"
"No problem, no problem, I have no problem at all!" Zhu Xue shook her head like a rattle, showing her determination to take the position immediately, and she got the job immediately.
Only now did she realize how lucky she was to have her first tutoring job.
Jian Jianan is not only the kind of diligent and studious child that every teacher likes, but she is also very considerate and understanding. Although she thinks that Zhu Xue must have some unspeakable secrets for not going home alone during the New Year, but because Zhu Xue never says it, Jian Jianan doesn't ask.
Now that she had received a big red envelope from the other person's mother, Zhu Xue was not only more grateful, but also secretly vowed in her heart that she would teach Jian Jianan more attentively in the future.
But she had already been attentive enough before, so how could she improve now? Now that Jian Jianan had asked what college life was like, Zhu Xue would definitely tell her everything.
Jian Jianan asked Zhu Xue, "Sister Xiaoxue, how did you get into university? Do you have any tips you can teach me?"
Zhu Xue is from the north, but she was admitted to Guangzhou University of Finance and Economics. It has to be said that the distance she traveled across provinces is quite long, and this distance directly spans half of China.
"At the time, I was just thinking about taking the college entrance exam as soon as possible, the farther away from home the better, so my first choices were all universities in the south. The college entrance exam competition in my province is quite fierce, and it's no exaggeration to say that only one in ten thousand gets in. When I wrote down my first choice, many teachers and parents asked me to change it, saying that I was too ambitious. But that's not right. If my first choice score is not high enough, I will fail, and then I will have to start all over again."
Zhu Xue couldn't hide her pride. "But as soon as my scores came out, those people immediately shut up. My scores weren't just high enough for my first choice. Even if I'd taken a bit more risk when applying for college, I'd have gotten into a university with a higher admission score!"
Jian Jianan nodded. "Is that so? Teacher Xiaoxue, you're amazing. I really hope you can teach me some advice. I'm also going to take the college entrance exam next year. Do you have any tips you can share? That way, I can also get into the university of my choice!"
Zhu Xue turned her head and asked Jian Jianan cautiously: "Nannan, do you mind me asking this? If you mind, I won't say it."
Jian Jianan shook his head, indicating that he didn't mind the question. Zhu Xue then continued, "I've wanted to ask you for a long time. Nan Nan, where is your ideal university?"
Jian Jianan told him, "I want to apply to a financial school in Beijing. The Central University of Finance and Economics is a very good one. I'm working hard towards this goal."
Zhu Xue was pleasantly surprised. "Central University of Finance and Economics? That's a very good school! Great! You have a good vision and ambitious goals. Let me wish you all the best in the future!"
Jian Jianan nodded appropriately, accepting Zhu Xue's praise and well wishes. "First of all, I'd like to thank Teacher Xiaoxue for your kind words. With your blessing, I believe I can definitely pass the exam!"
"Then what major are you going to apply for? Central University of Finance and Economics is a comprehensive financial institution, which is further divided into many colleges and majors. Each major has different specific knowledge and focuses. I think your situation is very suitable for this college..."
After hearing about Jian Jianan's dream university and considering her status as the heir, Zhu Xue immediately volunteered to recommend one to her.
Jian Jianan listened and wrote down on paper that it was an extremely correct decision for her mother to find a college student as a tutor for her.
Zhu Xue is a college student tutor specially found from Guangzhou. Although the distance is a bit far, it is really worth it.
Because she also fought her way out of the college entrance examination, which was a single-plank bridge among thousands of people, she had her own unique insights on how to get into college, and could also teach Jian Jianan some unique personal experiences, which benefited her a lot.
Zhu Xue finally finished speaking. Her mouth was dry and her saliva was almost dried up. Jian Jianan considerately handed her a glass of water to moisten her throat.
She looked at her notes and muttered, "Business School, School of Economics, School of International Economics and Trade..."
There are so many colleges?
Zhu Xue rarely saw such a surprised expression on Jian Jianan's face, and she couldn't help but laugh. "Yes, after all, it's a comprehensive financial school, with many colleges and classes. Most financial schools are like this. I've explained to you clearly what each college represents. You can refer to this information and make your choice when you apply for admission."
Jian Jianan was very happy and held the notebook as if it were a treasure.
"Thank you, Teacher Xiaoxue! I will definitely keep it well!" Jian Jianan hugged Zhu Xue's arm and kept thanking her. This was not a learning material that could be bought in bookstores. In this day and age, although everyone has reached a consensus that the college entrance examination is a very important exam, information about the college entrance examination is still very rare, and it is a way that only a few people can access.
This is normal. After all, it has only been a few years since the college entrance examination was resumed, and many people still have only a vague understanding of the college entrance examination process.
Zhu Xue was able to tell him all these things, which showed that he was teaching him everything he knew without hiding anything.
Zhu Xue couldn't help laughing. "It's okay, it's okay. I'm just telling you what I know. It's nothing big. If you have anything else you want to know, you can always ask me next time. If I'm not with you, just write to me. Oh, by the way, I haven't given you my address yet, right? Sorry, I forgot. I'll write it down for you now!"
Just like that, Jian Jianan, who had only scheduled a few classes with Zhu Xue, got her mailing address. You have to know that Zhu Xue is a very guarded person. It's really rare for someone like her to be able to open up to someone they've only known for less than half a year!
However, she felt that although Jian Jianan was a few years younger than her, she was a very calm girl and was still very reliable.
After finishing today's teaching class, Jian Jianan stood up and sent Zhu Xue out. Then he returned to the coffee table and looked through his schedule.
"The tutoring class is over, let me see what to do next..."
"Oh, right. If I have some free time, I'm going to visit Dad at Shenya Clothing. I'm also going to help Mom prepare the New Year gifts for the employees of the Nanbei Group, and..."
Just as Jian Jianan was looking through his schedule and making arrangements one by one, a figure appeared in the room and tried to sneak away.
Jian Jianan looked up and said the unfinished sentence: "And supervise my brother's studies."
She took a deep breath and yelled, "Stop! Jian Jiabei! You haven't had your tutoring class yet! Mom just made an appointment with you today, and Teacher Han will be here soon. You better stay in your room and don't go anywhere. Wait for the teacher to come and teach you!"
Jian Jiabei had originally intended to sneak out of the house, but he hadn't expected his sister to be so sharp-eyed. He had just made the move to sneak out of the room when she spotted him. Upon hearing what his sister said, Jian Jiabei couldn't help but pause, retracting his foot but still unwilling to give up: "Why are you so fierce? Are you guarding me like a thief? Did I tell her where I wanted to go? I just got up and wanted to go out to wash up."
"Oh, really?" Jian Jianan didn't seem to believe it at all. She squinted her eyes and looked at Jian Jiabei's neatly dressed clothes, focusing on his running shoes.
"Why are you wearing running shoes if you want to wash up? Don't tell me you are going to run ten kilometers at home!" Jian Jianan saw through his brother at once.
Jian Jiabei didn't expect that his disguise was seen through by his sister at once. He was just bored with studying and wanted to go out for a run to exercise.
"Okay, okay, I won't go out. Okay? I'll just stay at home and prepare well." Jian Jiabei almost wanted to surrender.
That's more like it, Jian Jianan nodded with satisfaction.
Ever since his brother told his family about the university he wanted to apply to, the four members of the family have been working as closely as the gears in a huge machine, each doing their own job and helping Jian Jiabei move steadily towards this goal.
Jian Yangping and Su Qinxuan specially hired a tutor for Jian Jiabei to help him improve his cultural knowledge so that he could get into his dream school.
Jian Jiabei actually understood his parents' good intentions and had no intention of resisting. It was just that today was New Year's Day! It was a fresh start to the year, so why should he study so hard on the first day of the year?
Jian Jiabei was puzzled by this, but his sister, who had full authority over his tutoring, threw up her hands and said, "It's the first day of the new year, so you have to take tutoring lessons. Don't you think it's a good omen, brother? Taking tutoring lessons on the first day of the new year means you're learning every day, and this will bring you closer to your dream school!"
Jian Jiabei was completely stunned by his sister's logic, but then the doorbell rang. It must be Teacher Han who had arrived. He could only cast a resentful look at his sister and followed Teacher Han in to study.
Jian Jianan happily watched his brother follow Teacher Han into the room to study, and satisfiedly crossed out the column "Supervise my brother's study" on his schedule to indicate that this had been completed.
So now, today's schedule is completely filled up.
Jian Jianan collapsed on the sofa, "Today is such a fulfilling day!"
Ever since the Chinese New Year, Jian Jianan felt as if everything happening at home had been accelerated.
Deng Bitong went back and discussed the interest-free loan with her father. Jian Yangping was also optimistic about this policy and was discussing with Deng Bitong how much money to borrow next.
My mother Su Qinxuan’s Nanbei Group has a big business this year. There is a selection of the top ten restaurants in the province, and Jinhuiju is trying its best to be selected!
As for herself, Jian Jianan is now in her second year of high school. Not only does she have to study hard, but she also has to go to Jinhuiju and Nanbei Hotel whenever she has free time to understand the business situation so that she can help when needed.
But the three of them were not as busy as Jian Jiabei alone.
Jian Jiabei is already a senior in high school this year, so his winter vacation is incomplete. The New Year hasn't even ended yet, and he has to go back to school on the fifth day of the New Year.
For Jian Jiabei, this meant that he hadn't even had a good year!
And that’s not all. In addition to the early start of school, Jian Jiabei’s second semester of senior year also saw a period of three days of small tests and five days of major tests. Their class teacher said that this period would continue until the end of the college entrance examination.
From then on, all paper documents appearing in Jian Jianan's house were converted from digital reports of major industries to Jian Jiabei's test scores.
Jian Jianan, his father, and his mother each held a copy of Jian Jiabei's test scores. The three of them were marking and checking them nervously, wanting to know whether Jian Jiabei could be admitted to his dream school based on these test scores, and if not, how big the gap would be.
Fortunately, Jian Jiabei was originally smart. Although he didn't understand business matters, he had a solid grasp of cultural knowledge, so there was no need to worry about his academic performance.
So Jian Jianan started to pay attention to his brother's other training.
The People's Public Security University is different from other universities. In addition to academic performance, it also requires a physical examination, and the examination is extremely strict. If any item does not meet the standards, the candidate will be immediately rejected and the admission qualification will be revoked.
In response to this situation, Jian Jianan and his parents developed a very strict training diet for his brother. He was not allowed to eat foods with high oil and salt content; he was not allowed to eat fried foods; he was not allowed to eat unknown street snacks; and he was not allowed to eat anything given by strangers.
Jian Jiabei was so annoyed that he frowned. "Why is there something here that I can't eat given by a stranger? Do you think I'm still a child?"
Jian Jianan felt a little guilty. "I just wrote this by accident, and it's not wrong. It's better to be safe than sorry. Maybe one day you'll suddenly feel hungry and want to eat something to satisfy your craving. If a stranger came over and offered you something, would you honestly say you would refuse?"
This... this actually makes a lot of sense. Jian Jiabei's eyes wandered, not daring to answer.
The days passed one by one, and Jian Jiabei lived a life where he studied academic subjects at school from Monday to Friday, and alternated academic subjects with sports training on weekends.
From the Chinese New Year in January to the following hot summer with the temperature rising day by day, the day of the college entrance examination is slowly approaching.
Finally, the day of the college entrance examination arrived.
The person involved, Jian Jiabei, was not nervous, but the three people around him were very nervous.
Jian Yangping put his hands in his pockets and said, "How's it going, Xiaobei? Have you checked your things? Are you sure you have everything you need? Did you forget anything? Did you bring your pencil and admission ticket?"
Jian Jiabei repeatedly assured: "I've brought everything, don't worry."
