Chapter 111

"Grandma!" Meng Nan, who was in her third year of high school, came in pushing her bicycle. She put down her schoolbag, picked up the water scoop, and gulped down a sip of cool water.

Meng Nan has a good bone structure and a strong look between her eyebrows. She is straightforward, but also knows how to be roundabout. Among the five children in the family, she is the most like Zhen Zhen.

Zhen Zhen smiled and said, "Your class teacher has been here."

"What is he doing here?"

"They said your mock exam scores dropped, and they were worried that you might be mentally unstable, so they asked us to do some ideological work on you."

Meng Nan is taking the college entrance examination this year. This kid is smart, but his performance is inconsistent. When he performs well, he ranks first in the city, but when he performs poorly, he ranks outside the top 30.

Meng Nan's class teacher is very concerned about her and is afraid that she might have trouble with the college entrance examination. She has visited her home several times this year alone, asking the Meng family to cooperate with Meng Nan, to encourage and praise her more, and not to put pressure on the child.

Meng Nan put her hand on Zhen Zhen's shoulder. She was 172 cm tall, half a head taller than Zhen Zhen.

"I just didn't perform well at the moment. I will have no problem with the college entrance examination."

Zhen Zhen envied the kid's confidence, "Then I'll just wait for you to get first place in the city?"

"no problem!"

As the grandfather and grandson were chatting, Meng Li came over and said that this year the Taxation Bureau and other units would be recruiting a group of college entrance examination candidates, and that those who met the college entrance examination score requirements would be specially recruited. She came over after hearing the news and wanted to ask Meng Nan if he wanted to go to the Taxation Bureau.

The Meng family has always been democratic, and Meng Nan rejected it directly, "My aunt was admitted to a prestigious university and studied abroad. My uncle also went to a prestigious university. I can't fall behind."

Meng Li knew Meng Nan would refuse. This girl was well raised by her aunt. She was tall and had long legs, a smart mind, good grades, and her family was so rich, so it was normal for her to look down on the IRS.

"I'm just asking, Meng Xi is going to participate in the Olympics, and you, as her sister, can't be worse than her."

"I'm not comparing myself to Arya," Meng Nan held Zhen Zhen in his arms and sniffed her body. He felt much better when he smelled the familiar scent of soap. "I want to go to a prestigious school and take over the family business in the future."

Meng Li was stunned. "You take over the business, will your aunt let you? The third and fifth children are boys."

"What's wrong with a boy? My grandma said, who can give birth to one?"

Meng Li nodded. Under the influence of her aunt, the people around her gradually stopped favoring boys over girls. Not to mention those of them who lived in the county town, even the villagers of Batou Village had been reformed.

There is no way, who makes the girls in Batou Village more capable than each other, farming, researching medicinal herbs, designing clothes, and processing clothing.

Girls are the backbone of the family and are more capable than boys. No matter how unwilling men are to accept this, they have to hold it in.

"Auntie, are you really going to let Meng Nan take over?" Meng Li asked in a low voice, "Will Sanwa and Wuwa make trouble?"

"No," Zhen Zhen smiled. Zhenxin Food Factory has long been developed into the largest food factory in China, and Naoqingsong has also developed a series of health products with an annual turnover of tens of millions. Focus Women's Wear has also grown under Jiao Huilan's meticulous efforts and has become the most famous women's wear brand in China.

Zhen Zhen has never been biased towards boys, and Meng Nan is smart, has good grades, and is the eldest in the family. Who else should the business be given to if not her?

"Third and fifth children listen to Meng Nan. Moreover, they are not yet grown up. I will hand over the business to Meng Nan as soon as possible. When they grow up, Meng Nan's position in the company will be stable."

Meng Li really admired her. She didn't favor boys over girls, but it was difficult for her to be as biased towards daughters as her aunt was.

"Aren't you afraid that your future granddaughter-in-law might have opinions?"

"They have opinions? Who are they trying to scare? So what if they have opinions? I control all the business. The most that can happen is that no one will burn incense or sweep my grave after I die. Do you think I care about these things?"

Meng Li was convinced, "Where's the boss?"

"The big countries are installing ham production lines."

Zhen Zhen has always wanted to do ham and sausage business, but unfortunately he has not been successful in the past few years. Seeing that it is completely liberalized this year, Zhen Zhen asked Meng Daguo and Meng Eryong to go to the island country to introduce the ham and sausage production line.

Zhen Zhen registered the trademark "Double Happiness Ham" and will start the ham sausage business once the production line is installed.

Meat is expensive these days, but ham sausage only costs 80 cents a piece and it still sells like hot cakes.

In addition, the sincere sales system has long been mature, and with the help of sincere salesmen to promote it, there is no need to worry about selling ham sausage.

However, the packaging of ham sausage requires PVDC film, which can only be imported.

Fortunately, Zhen Zhen asked Cheng Su to contact the Meiliguo factory and solved the packaging problem.

Meng Li and Zhen Zhen went to the factory together. The meat was minced and mixed with starch, then filled through a sausage stuffer. The filled ham sausages had to be steamed at high temperature.

Meng Li was stunned. "So this is how ham sausage is made."

The production line was installed. Meng Daguo handed them two steamed ham sausages. Zhen Zhen opened the package and took a bite. "Wow, it smells good."

“It smells so good!”

Meng Li was stunned by the aroma. This thing was so delicious. It was hard to imagine how happy it would be to have a piece of sausage while eating instant noodles!

Meng Eryong smiled and said, "Of course it smells good. We use pork raised by ourselves. You know our pork. The breed of pigs has been improved. They are fat and strong. The pigs are raised in large pens. They exercise, so they taste better. They are different from other pigs."

Meng Li really admires them. Having so many profitable businesses is not enough, so they developed ham sausage.

Nowadays, everyone is starving, so ham sausage will definitely be popular once it comes on the market.

"It's delicious!" Meng Li ate three and still felt it was not enough. "Give me a few so I can take them home for my baby to try."

Zhen Zhen smiled and without being stingy, he filled the net bag with the food and handed it to her.

After the ham sausage was developed, Zhen Zhen sent some to Zhen's second brother, Zhao Meilan, Zhang Cuihua, and Gou Zi's parents' home. She was not stingy with people and often gave gifts to relatives and friends during holidays. Everyone knew how to be grateful. Take Zhen Xiangyang for example, every year he would send a lot of rice, flour, cakes, bean curd skin and other things for Zhen Zhen to taste.

Gou Zi's mother was full of praise for the ham sausage, "It's my first time eating ham sausage, it's so delicious that I was stunned."

"The packaging is also nice. The bright red outer packaging looks festive," said Zhang Cuihua.

Gouzi's mother took the yuba she made and asked Zhen Zhen to take it back, "We won't eat your food for nothing. Let's try the yuba made by my sister-in-law. She plans to sell it in the county town."

This bean curd sheet is clean and hygienic, and looks different from those bought in the market.

Zhen Zhen praised it repeatedly, "The color is quite good. Your sister-in-law is really good at making yuba. Why don't you register a trademark and sell it elsewhere?"

"Okay, I'll tell her. She still grows peppers at home, so I guess she won't be interested in that."

In the past two years, the pepper planting area in the entire Xin Yao County has increased, and most of the peppers are purchased by the good mother-in-law to make chili sauce. Every pepper harvest season, vehicles from other places often come to purchase them. Over time, the peppers in Xin Yao County have gradually become famous.

When Zhen Zhen just arrived, he saw a truck at the entrance of the village. "Is someone here to buy chili peppers?"

"It's not peppers, it's medicinal herbs. Aren't there many villages that have learned to grow peppers and medicinal herbs from us in recent years? The town is planning to build a trading market at the four-way intersection in front so that farmers can bring their own peppers and medicinal herbs to sell."

Although this four-way intersection is in the countryside, it has a lot of traffic, so it is very suitable to build a trading market here.

"By the way, how did your Mengnan do in the college entrance examination?" Zhang Cuihua asked.

Zhen Zhen has a candidate in the family. Although he is usually very calm, he couldn't help feeling a little anxious during the days leading up to the college entrance examination.

"I didn't dare to mention it, I didn't dare to ask, I pretended that no one was taking the exam, and I scolded Eryong for snoring at night."

Zhang Cuihua was envious. "Meng Nan is a stable kid. He won't let you down at the critical moment. You can just put your mind at ease."

The days leading up to the college entrance examination were the most difficult. Meng Nan had gone to another area to take the exam and was not in the county at all. Zhen Zhen had no way to care about her and could only endure these days silently.

"This child is having her period, and I'm worried she'll have a stomachache."

"That's just a coincidence. I heard there is a medicine that can delay menstruation."

"It's not good for the girl to take medicine, just let nature take its course."

Meng Nan finally finished the exam, but before Zhen Zhen had the chance to ask her how she did, she was taken back to school by the teacher to check her answers.

It’s not easy to get into a junior college these days, let alone an undergraduate degree?

After waiting for her to come back with great difficulty, Meng Daguo became anxious and rushed over to ask:

"My dear, how did you do on the test? Have you calculated your score? How many points did you get?"

Jiao Huilan was also anxious, "Can I get into a top university?"

Meng Nan ate cherries without saying a word, which made Meng Daguo and his wife very anxious. "My dear, my parents are so worried, please give me some advice."

"Mom and Dad, you guys are so impatient. Look at my grandma, she's just doing what she needs to do, she's not in a hurry at all."

"What's your skill? Can I compare with her?" Meng Daguo did not forget to flatter his mother.

Meng Nan chuckled and kept it a secret without telling her. She didn't want to say it and no one could pry her mouth open. Meng Daguo became anxious and followed Zhen Zhen into the kitchen.

"Mom, you know Daya best. What do you think she means? Did she do well or poorly in the exam?"

"Need I say that?" Zhen Zhen glanced at his eldest son and said with a smile, "Don't you know your daughter? She looks unreliable, but she is actually a steady person. Not telling you means that her estimated score is very high, so high that it's scary. She must be admitted to Tsinghua University or Peking University."

"Then why didn't she tell us?"

"This is an estimate. If you go out and make a fuss before the results come out, what if you don't do well in the exam? How will you let Meng Nan put his face?"

After Zhen Zhen said this, Meng Daguo couldn't help but smile, "My daughter won't really be admitted to Qingda University, right? At first you asked her to study science, and I thought it was not suitable for girls to study science."

"Girls should study science and take jobs where there are more boys. This is the only way they can have a chance to move up."

Meng Daguo was convinced that Meng Nan was like his mother, shrewd and patient, much more capable than other boys.

Meng Daguo has always been very inferior. He does not have a high level of education, unlike Meng Hua who is a top student. But his daughter is very ambitious. If she can be admitted to Tsinghua University, he will be really proud.

Before the results were released, Meng Daguo became more and more anxious. Shuangxi Ham Sausage was working overtime to prepare for its launch, but he was not in the mood at all. He stood at the door of Good Mother-in-law every day, looking out.

"Mom, if you get admitted to Peking University or Tsinghua University, the school should come to your house to congratulate you personally, right?"

"I think so?" How would Zhen Zhen know? She hadn't been admitted to Peking University or Tsinghua University?

However, according to the rules of later generations, Peking University and Tsinghua University knew their results before they were announced.

Zhen Zhen counted on his fingers and realized it would only take two days.

It's no wonder Meng Daguo is anxious. Nowadays, you can't be admitted just by having high test scores. Some people don't apply for the right major, so they have to repeat their studies even if they have high test scores.

Meng Daguo was standing at the door when he suddenly saw Meng Nan's teacher Xu Qinghua and a group of people riding bicycles over.

Meng Daguo was stunned and looked at Zhen Zhen in disbelief, "Mom! Am I seeing things? Did they get the red letter of approval? Did our Meng Nan really pass the exam?"

Jiao Huilan also came out of the store. The couple were so excited that they were not calm enough. Xu Qinghua directly held Zhen Zhen's hand and said excitedly:

"Thank you, elder sister, for training an outstanding provincial college entrance examination champion for our school and Xinyao County!"

"Provincial top scorer in the college entrance examination?" Zhen Zhen was also stunned for a moment. She thought that Meng Nan had done well in the exam, and it was fine if he was first in the city, but Meng Nan actually got the provincial top scorer in the college entrance examination? "How many points?"

"620 points! Shangqing is in great shape! The school leaders and the leaders of the Education Bureau have told me to bring the good news and publicize this matter so that everyone knows that our No. 1 Middle School has produced a top scorer in the college entrance examination!"

Zhen Zhen laughed, "Daguo, why don't you ask Meng Nan to come out?"

Meng Daguo quickly pulled Meng Nan up from the doghouse-like bed and forced him to wash his face.

Meng Nan was sleeping soundly. When she looked up, she saw Teacher Xu Qinghua coming over with a group of people. He was holding something in his hand, making her look like she was receiving an imperial decree.

"Teacher Xu?"

"620 points! No. 1 in the provincial college entrance examination! You've got into Tsinghua University! The county will reward you 5,000 yuan! The school will also give you a 3,000 yuan bonus! You are the first person in our county to be admitted to Tsinghua University after the college entrance examination was resumed. All major units will also provide subsidies!" Xu Qinghua excitedly held Meng Nan's hand and could not speak clearly. Later he burst into tears, "Meng Nan, thank you, Teacher Xu. You have fulfilled Teacher Xu's wish. I didn't get into Tsinghua University, but my students did. I have no regrets in this life."

Since Xu Qinghua was able to teach a top scorer in the college entrance examination, the county will provide him with a lot of subsidies, and he will not have to worry about promotion in the future.

Meng Nan was delighted. "I estimated the score to be 610, but I didn't expect it to be higher than I expected."

Xu Qinghua said with emotion: "You are a lucky child. You always fail in small tests, but you always perform exceptionally well at critical moments. I have to say that children raised by wealthy families have a stable mentality."

Meng Nan smiled sheepishly: "It's mainly because my grandma said that whoever gets into Tsinghua University will receive a 200,000 yuan reward. I went there for the money, too."

Xu Qinghua was extremely envious, "I also want to have a grandma who gives me 200,000!"

"Teacher Xu, you are not as lucky as me!" Meng Nan hugged Zhen Zhen's arm and rubbed into Zhen Zhen's arms.

Now that their child has been admitted to Tsinghua University, the Meng family has a lot to do.

Zhen Zhen first asked Meng Daguo to bring candies and snacks to Batou Village to announce the good news. Meng Daguo brought several sacks of candies and snacks and scattered them everywhere like a boy distributing wealth. He told everyone he met that his child was admitted to Tsinghua University! He wanted to let the villagers share in the good news.

Zhen Zhen asked Meng Eryong to pull out a banner that read, "Granddaughter admitted to Tsinghua University, 30% off all items!"

As soon as the banner was displayed, people from all over the neighborhood came out to congratulate them. Before long, everyone in the county knew that the Meng family, the richest family in the county, the one that owned Focus Women's Clothing, Zhenxin Food Factory, and Naoqingsong, not only had a net worth of tens of millions, but their granddaughter had also been admitted to National Tsing Hua University!

Everyone said that there was smoke coming out of the Meng family’s ancestral tomb.

Zhen Zhen called Su Xiu, Meng Hua and Tan Wenyin to tell them the good news. Tan Wenyin and Meng Hua's child was already three years old. She was busy taking care of the child and had not returned to Xin Yao County for two years. When she heard that Meng Nan was admitted to Tsinghua University, she was happier than anyone else.

"Mom, you are really good at educating children. Meng Hua, Su Xiu, Meng Nan, and the children of Meng Hua's cousins ​​were all raised by you."

Tan Wenyin admires her mother-in-law very much. It is very difficult to get into Tsinghua University these days, let alone in a small county like Xinyao where education is underdeveloped.

Under such circumstances, the mother-in-law was able to pull Meng Nan out, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

Although the mother-in-law seldom taught Meng Nan his homework, she often bought materials and test papers from other places for Meng Nan to take the test.

After Meng Nan entered high school, Zhen Zhen sent Meng Nan to Beijing for tutoring every winter and summer vacation.

Tan Wenyin sent Meng Nan to a famous teacher's direct-entry class for Peking University and Tsinghua University. Meng Nan took tutoring for several years and the results were remarkable.

In recent years, more and more foreigners have come to Beijing to work as foreign teachers. Zhen Zhen also asked Tan Wenyin to hire a foreign teacher for Meng Nan to teach him spoken English.

With Zhen Zhen's help, Meng Nan became fluent in English and performed very well in the exams. No one could tell that she was a girl from the countryside.

Tan Wenyin wanted to give her child to her mother-in-law to raise, but unfortunately Tan Zheng also doted on his child and was very obedient to Tan Cong, so he was not willing to give Tan Cong to someone else to raise.

The children in the family were also very excited. The third child was going to high school, and his sister was admitted to Tsinghua University. It was an honor to tell others about it.

Zhen Zhen fulfilled his promise and gave Meng Nan a savings book with 200,000 yuan in front of everyone.

Tao Aihong curled her lips and said, "It's so difficult to get into Tsinghua or Peking University. Our third child can only get into a first-tier university. Does he get paid for getting into a first-tier university?"

"If you pass the exam, you will get a reward of 100,000 yuan."

Tao Aihong pulled Sanwa aside and said, "Your grandma is really partial to me. 200,000 yuan! How can a little girl need so much money?"

Sanwa stared at the book and said, "If you are not convinced, go and take the exam too."

"If I had that ability, would I still be your mother?" Tao Aihong pinched Sanwa, "You have a sense of crisis. Our family is no longer the small workshop we used to be. Now we have three companies, plus your grandfather's pig farm. When the ham sausage business is successful, your grandmother's companies will be worth at least tens of millions. Your grandmother is partial to Meng Nan and treats him better than you. You should know this in your heart."

Sanwa sighed. His mother kept nagging him about fighting for the family property every day.

He grew up with Meng Nan and they were very close, so he didn't care who was the housekeeper.

"It would be great if my sister could manage the household! I want to create my own brand in the future and not rely on my family."

"You don't want to rely on your family?" Tao Aihong pinched her philtrum fiercely. "I'm going to die. You can just say you don't want the family property worth tens of millions! Even if you don't want it, you have to consider me and your father!"

"What are you considering? You and my dad get millions in dividends every year. What else do you need?"

Tao Aihong almost fainted.

Sanwa has never been close to her since he was young and often talks back at her. She used to think that the child was young and would know that money is good when he grows up.

Who would have thought that Sanwa was led astray by her mother-in-law and wanted to start her own business.

"Do you think starting a business is easy? Where can you start a business and make tens of millions?"

Sanwa waved the book in his hand. Tao Aihong took a closer look and found that it was a book about the stock market.

"You can make tens of millions by investing in stocks or real estate! That's what the book says."

"Do you believe everything in the book?"

"Last time my aunt came back to China, she also told me that there are a lot of companies making money abroad, and they have assets worth billions. The money we have is not enough to look at." Sanwa said earnestly, "Mom, you should have a long-term vision, stop talking about your parents' shortcomings all day long, and don't say nonsense in front of Xiaowu."

Tao Aihong was helpless after hearing what her son said, "You have been a fool since you were young. I am afraid that you will really give all the family property to Meng Nan."

"Isn't Meng Nan's last name Meng? Aren't they all family members?"

"Meng Nan is not my daughter. Besides, she is a girl! How can a girl inherit the family business?"

Tao Aihong's righteous look made Sanwa couldn't help shaking his head.

"Mom, my grandma favors boys over girls. She's nice to my uncle, but she wouldn't even kill a chicken for you. You've been wronged since you were little. You know it's not good to favor boys over girls, but you still favor boys over girls." Sanwa has seen the world and read a lot of books. He knows that favoring boys over girls is not a good thing. "You think this way, how is it different from my grandma?"

"Your grandmother's family doesn't have tens of millions of dollars!"

Sanwa couldn't help shaking his head, "Mom, don't be a slave to money! Be your own master!"

"Meng Dong!"

Meng Dong found Meng Nan, and the brother and sister pooled together the money they had saved over the years, as well as Meng Xi's bonus and the money from the four girls and five kids, but they could only come up with 250,000 yuan.

The last time Meng Nan went to Beijing for tutoring, he overheard a wealthy businessman from the Bay Island talking about stock trading and eavesdropped on the conversation.

It turns out that the stock market in the Bay Area has been particularly crazy in recent years. It is said that if you pick any stock at random, you can get a 10% return rate every month.

Meng Dong likes to trade stocks, and Meng Nan likes to make money. The two hit it off and plan to use all their money to trade stocks.

"We can't just have money. The Bay Island is so far away, and we need a visa and so on. We can't go there."

"It's okay. I've already made an appointment with someone. He'll help me with the paperwork. Didn't I get into National Tsing Hua University? This is a good excuse to go on a trip to the Bay Area. Grandma won't be suspicious."

Meng Dongbi was still young and a little scared. “What if I lose money?”

Meng Nan was also afraid of losing money, but she asked her uncle and found out that everyone in the Bay Area was investing in stocks and everyone was making a lot of money. Housewives in the Bay Area were upgrading their consumption and many of them flew to Hong Kong to buy luxury goods. Meng Hua was also very interested in the Bay Area's stock market and invested less than tens of millions and made more than three million.

But he still felt that Meng Nan was too young and did not dare to take her with him easily, fearing that she would suffer even more.

"Making money right after entering the stock market is not a good thing. I have the ability to cover the bottom, but you don't," said Meng Hua.

Meng Hua refused to take her, so she secretly asked a good friend from the cram school for help. Fortunately, that person was a second-generation red, and his family had some power, so he helped Meng Nan complete the procedures smoothly.

This time Meng Nan plans to go to the Bay Island with the other party to trade stocks.

"If grandma asks me, how should I answer?"

"Just tell her that I went to Beijing to visit my uncle. She won't suspect anything."

Meng Nan had never been on a plane before. The first time she traveled far away was to a Gulf Island where she was unfamiliar with the place. It would be a lie to say that she was not afraid, but she knew that there were always some roads in life that she had to walk on her own.

No matter how good grandma is, she can't be with her forever.

Since she was able to get into National Tsing Hua University, she has the brains to start from scratch. Isn't it just the stock market?

If others can speculate, so can she. She took 200,000 shares and bravely ventured into the Taiwan Strait. She would come back as soon as she made a profit. When she had more money, she would invest in other industries.

If Meng Xi can win the Olympic championship next year, she can continue to do business under Meng Xi's name. At most, she can give Meng Xi a bigger share, and everyone will win.

In short, Meng Nan was focused on making money.

Meng Nan disappeared for a few days under the pretext of going to Beijing for fun, but Zhen Zhen didn't take it seriously until seven days later when she called Tan Wenyin and found out that Meng Nan had not been to Beijing at all.

"Nonsense!" Meng Daguo was furious. "She doesn't even know him, so she just ran away with him? What if that person is a private businessman?"

Meng Dong muttered: "What can I do? My sister won't let me say it."

"She told you not to say it, so you didn't say it? That person is a man. What should we do if something goes wrong between a man and a woman?"

Meng Daguo was extremely anxious, but he didn't even know where Meng Nan lived, and there was no way he could go to the Bay Island to look for him.

Zhen Zhen was quite calm. Meng Nan was not born in an ordinary family. She often took Meng Nan on business trips to discuss matters. Meng Nan had been influenced by her since he was a child and had become a very competent successor to the company.

After all, even Zhen Zhen didn’t know the stock market conditions in the Bay Area.

"Forget it, let her be! This girl is a thornbird that can't be caged, just let her fly freely."

"Mom," Meng Daguo was worried, "What if she has an affair with someone else..."

"Don't worry, I have given her sex education. She knows how to have safe sex and will never tolerate a man who does it randomly."

Meng Daguo choked and thought his mother was too open-minded. She talked about sexual behavior but kept silent about sex education. How embarrassing.

Zhen Zhen glanced at him and said, "You gave birth to three children, and you're not embarrassed! Could it be that the children were not created by you, but picked up from the trash can? You wash condoms every night, do you think your mother is stupid?"

Meng Daguo's old face turned red, Jiao Huilan also blushed with shame, and the couple ran away with their heads lowered.

At the end of the month, on the eve of the Tsinghua University report, Meng Nan finally came back, carrying a suitcase, and she looked much darker than before she left.

"Grandma! I'm back!"

Zhen Zhen stared at her for a moment, "Is everything okay?"

"Don't worry, don't worry," Meng Nan patted Zhen Zhen's shoulder soothingly. She knew that grandma would never blame her. That was why Meng Nan felt bad. "I'm sorry, grandma, I shouldn't have lied to you. I just wanted to go to the Bay Island with someone to trade stocks and see how the market was. If I told you that I was going to such a far place with a boy, you would definitely not agree."

Zhen Zhen said: "I'm not angry, but you have to know that people have to be responsible for their own actions. If you encounter any accidents, others can't take your place."

"I know I was wrong." Meng Nan kissed Zhen Zhen, "But grandma, the stock market in the Bay Area is really scary. We invested 500,000 yuan and made 200,000 yuan in just a few days. We invested another 200,000 yuan and made more than 300,000 yuan. In less than a month, our money doubled."

As far as Zhen Zhen remembers, the stock market in the Gulf Islands did not completely cool down until before 1990.

"When God wants someone to die, He will make him crazy. Meng Nan, I'm telling you this. At any time, don't forget that you are just a small shrimp in this torrent. There are many things that you can't do well just because you are smart and experienced."

Meng Nan seemed to understand, "Then how can a small shrimp like me survive in the flood?"

Zhen Zhen thought for a moment, "You have to be the banker, you have to sit at the table, and you have to have a say. The higher you stand, the more weight you hold in your hands, and the greater your chances of survival."

Meng Nan also agreed with Zhen Zhen's words. It was only during her trip to the Bay Island that she realized that there were people manipulating the stock market.

There was a wool textile company whose stock had no value at all, but it was picked up by a market maker and then hit the daily limit 22 times in a row!

But Meng Nan had been to this factory and heard from people that this factory had been making losses and had serious financial problems when it went public. In the final analysis, it was just because it had shell resources.

Only then did Meng Nan realize that the tricks played by the capital behind the scenes were beyond her ability to understand.

My uncle is right. You can't be too smooth when you first enter the stock market. Too smooth is not a good thing. If Meng Nan hadn't gone to school, how could she be willing to give up this piece of fat meat in the Bay Island? She must have put all her heart into the Bay Island stock market.

Her friend has refused to come back so far, saying that she wants to pan for gold in the Bay Area.

"Grandma, I understand. I will study hard and strive to become the banker in the future."

Zhen Zhen patted her cheek and said, "I'll give you money. When you get to Beijing, remember to enroll in a driving school and learn how to drive a car."

"Me? There are very few women driving."

"Remember, don't let others take the wheel, even your lover. Only when you hold the wheel can you decide the direction."

Meng Nan doubled the dividends for his brothers and sisters. Sanwa was very happy and felt that he had made a lot of money.

"Sister, take me with you when you start trading stocks. I want to try it, too."

Meng Nan agreed. She looked at the home where she had lived for more than ten years and felt very reluctant to leave. Of course, what she was most reluctant to leave was her grandmother.

At night, Meng Nan hugged the small quilt and crawled into Zhen Zhen's bed. Zhen Zhen patted her back like she did when she was a child, "Are you acting like a spoiled child again?"

"Grandma, I can't bear to leave you," Meng Nan sniffed. She also couldn't bear to leave her parents, but her parents were still young, while grandma was old. She was over fifty years old and had white hair. "Grandma, please grow old slowly. When I make money, I will be filial to you."

Zhen Zhen was half asleep, feeling sweet inside, "I know, grandma is immortal, waiting for you to be filial to me."

Before Meng Nan got on the train, he cried so hard that his nose was blocked. Zhen Zhen was helpless and could only turn her back, fearing that the child would never stop making trouble and would not get on the train even after a long time.

After Zhen Zhen left, Meng Nan sat on the train seat, took Meng Daguo's handkerchief and wiped his nose.

Meng Nan felt a little lost. She looked at the shadows of the trees passing by outside the window and thought about what happened in Batou Village in the past.

At that time, grandma always made maltose for her to drink. She drank the sweet maltose and felt that grandma tasted like maltose.

She wanted to stay at the age of four or five forever, in the place she missed.

Growing up is good, but when you grow up you won’t be able to see your grandma anymore.

After Meng Nan left, Zhen Zhen went to the Double Happiness Ham Sausage Factory. The first batch of Double Happiness Ham Sausage stock had been prepared, and this batch of goods was enough to be shipped to distributors across the country.

All the distributors of Zhenxin instant noodles have made a lot of money. This time when Shuangxi was selecting distributors, Zhenzhen still came closely with this group of partners.

With the support of Zhenxin Food Factory, the order volume of Double Happiness ham sausage has surged. Now, before the inventory has even left the warehouse, there are already millions of orders.

"Auntie, you're here?" Meng Pandi walked over.

Meng Pandi is an older leftover woman. She is focused on her career and doesn't want to get married. She has been introduced to many men left and right, but she doesn't like any of them. Zhen Zhen thinks they are nothing special, but Zhou Shufen is worried that Meng Pandi is too old to have children.

"Don't worry. Our Pan Di is now the general manager of Shuangxi Ham Sausage. In the second half of the year, I will let Pan Di go on a business trip to Beijing. I guarantee that he will be able to find a Beijing man." Zhen Zhen said.

Zhou Shufen smiled. With the help of Zhen Zhen, she and her husband had more than 100,000 yuan in savings. They built their house and also bought a house for Meng Pandi like Meng Daguo did.

The house in the county town is not as good as the courtyard house in Beijing, but it is also a token of Zhou Shufen’s love.

The only regret is that Meng Pandi is unwilling to get married.

It's also strange that women don't want to get married when they have money and a career.

Zhen Zhen arranged to ship Double Happiness ham sausages across the country, and asked Meng Pandi to verify the order. Then he met with the county head Xu Wei to discuss opening a supermarket.

Zhen Zhen had considered opening a supermarket for many years. She originally planned to open one in Beijing, but Xu Wei wanted to keep her in the county.

"The land near Good Mother-in-law is going to be demolished soon. According to the plan, a shopping mall will be opened here. If your supermarket is big enough, the county can allocate this land to you."

Every farmer household in Xinyao County grows peppers and has made a lot of money in the past few years. Although they are not yet out of poverty, they are on the road to getting out of poverty.

In a few years, Xinyao County will be able to get rid of the label of "poor county".

Originally, Zhen Zhen thought that people in the county had no money to spend, but now that the whole county has escaped poverty and people have money in their hands, it is not impossible to open a shopping mall in the county.

In recent years, several streets of shops have opened near Hao Po Po, and asphalt roads leading to various towns and villages intersect nearby.

It's not impossible to open a shopping mall here.

Zhen Zhen was very familiar with Xu Wei. After taking a sip of tea, he got straight to the point. "The county has to exempt us from taxes and give us some nearby land."

Xu Wei was stunned. Tax exemption was a normal operation, but what about requiring several plots of land nearby?

Zhen Zhen did not hide it, "I heard that the real estate industry will be liberalized in China, and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange will hold a land auction this year."

Xu Wei was shocked, thinking that the Meng family was indeed well-informed. He was also a second-generation Beijinger, but he had never heard of this news.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, since the county will give up the surrounding land sooner or later, it might as well give it to me."

“You want to develop a community?”

Xu Wei is not a fool. Boss Zhen is a treasure trove. He can think of any tricks and do anything to make money.

The ham sausage has just been made, and now we are developing real estate.

However, Boss Zhen made money, and Xu Wei and the county were all winners. After all, everyone knew that if there was no Boss Zhen in Xin Yao County, the county's finances would be reduced by more than half.

Zhen Zhen really wants to develop a community. The county has been lifted out of poverty, and the farmers have money in their hands. They have more savings and want to improve their housing.

The land price in the county town is cheap, and the housing price is also cheap. Most people can afford a house for tens of thousands of yuan.

Even if you can't afford it now, you should be able to afford it in a few years when the house is built.

Xu Wei is not responsible for everything, but he promised to help.

Zhen Zhen asked Meng Hua to invite a designer from Hong Kong to help design the shopping mall.

The designer's name is Mike, and he doesn't speak Mandarin very well. Fortunately, Zhen Zhen knows a little English, so the two of them can communicate smoothly.

Zhen Zhen’s request is that the mall build an underground parking lot to facilitate parking in the future.

There is not much demand in this area in the mainland, and many designers lack foresight. Designers in Hong Kong are different. As soon as Zhen Zhen explained it, he understood.

"Parking needs to be convenient, and we need to be able to park as many cars as possible. After all, the mainland is developing rapidly, and it is only a matter of time before the people of Xinyao County buy cars," said Mike.

Zhen Zhen is also thinking about building a food street outside the mall and having a floor inside the mall dedicated to opening a restaurant to attract traffic.

Currently, there are very few shopping malls in China that have elevators, so Zhen Zhen reserved elevator spaces in the hope of installing elevators during future renovations.

Mike praised: "Elevators are essential in the future. Many shopping malls in Hong Kong also have elevators. With elevators, you don't have to walk."

Zhen Zhen discussed the design of the nearby residential area with Mike. Mike expressed his views, and the two spent some time finalizing the outline of the draft.

There are no large shopping malls in Beijing at present, but Xinyao County, as a county seat, is the first to have one.

Zhen Zhen counted the money he had and planned to buy a piece of land in Beijing to open a shopping mall after the land auction started.

The Gangcheng team is very experienced and designed the manuscript quickly.

At the same time, Double Happiness ham sausage sales have repeatedly set new records across the country.

Meng Daguo looked at the sales orders coming in from all over the place and said happily:

"Mom, there have been many happy events in our family this year. Meng Nan was admitted to Tsinghua University, and the Double Happiness ham sausage sold more than 3 million yuan as soon as it was launched on the market. Brain-clearing calcium tablets, vitamin tablets and other products also sold 10 to 20 million yuan. Our family is getting better and better."

Zhen Zhen was also quite emotional, as so many years had passed without her noticing.

"Mom is over fifty years old."

"He looks only thirty."

"You don't understand. Aging is not about the skin, but the state of mind. When you get older, you don't have the passion of youth."

"Mom, you're not excited? I've never seen anyone who looks better than you in my life! People say you're prettier than celebrities!" Meng Daguo smiled, poured his mother a cup of ginseng tea, and brought in a pile of yellow paper. "It must be Dad who is blessing us from below. I have to go burn some more paper money for Dad so that he won't be without money."

Zhen Zhen smiled and said, "If you burn it, he will be able to receive it?"

"Then tell me, mother, why do we have money when others have no money? Maybe our money is burned by our previous generations. If we burn more, we have more money, and if we burn less, we are penniless. If we burn a building, we live in a building, and if we burn a car, we drive a car."

Meng Daguo was the most filial and was the most diligent in burning paper for Meng Changzheng.

"Tell Mannon and Mansey what's going on."

"I have called. Meng Nan is fine. Don't worry. She is in school and it is not convenient for her to obey. She said she will write to you. As for Meng Xi, she is in training now. I can't get in."

Meng Xi will participate in the Seoul Olympics next year. Coach Xu of the national team said that she has great potential and has been training her as a favorite to win the championship.

Studying is hard, training is hard, each has its own pain.

"Then don't bother her. Let her focus on her training. When she participates in the Olympics, we can buy tickets to watch it in person."

"Hey!" Meng Daguo had never been to other countries, and he also wanted to see the lady win the crown with his own eyes.

Meng Xi left home to join the swimming team at the age of eight. Every time he went home in recent years, Meng Daguo felt that his child was growing up too fast, so fast that it made him, as a father, feel sore.

"Mom, I always feel like I owe Erya."

Meng Daguo is an emotional person. He feels that Meng Xi has not been around and has not enjoyed the love of his parents.

"What can we do? We can't just hold the child back and prevent him from going out, right?" Zhen Zhen said with a smile, "Daguo, you've done enough. You bought Meng Xi a courtyard and so much gold. When she sees those things, she'll understand everything."

"But money can't replace the love of parents."

"Why not? Haven't you heard that saying? Where the money is, there the love is! If you feel you owe Meng Xi, just buy her more houses and gold as a dowry."

Meng Daguo's greatest strength is that he is obedient. He went to buy the gold jewelry silently.

Zhen Zhen also hoarded 100 kilograms of gold.

She has been collecting antiques in recent years. There is no room for all the antiques in the space, including rosewood tables, screens, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry and everything else.

It's not surprising to buy too many antiques, at least that's the case for Zhen Zhen.

There are thousands of antiques in her space. If she randomly picks a few hundred to sell, they could fetch hundreds of millions.

Now that he had money and a successful career, Zhen Zhen wanted to do something for the country. It would be great if he could buy back the antiques that were taken abroad in previous years.

At least we should keep the antiques in our own hands.

Zhen Zhen called Meng Hua and told him that there would be a lot of auctions in Gangcheng, and many good things from home and abroad would be sent to Gangcheng for auction.

It’s definitely a good idea to choose Hong Kong as your first stop for antique auctions.

Meng Hua was a little surprised when he received the call. After listening to his mother's words, Meng Hua inexplicably felt that he was too narrow-minded.

"Mom is really amazing. I didn't even think about it that much."

Zhen Zhen smiled and said, "You are in your prime, making money is the most important thing. I am older, so it doesn't matter how much money I have. Antiques are cheap these days, and I want to stock up on some, and leave them to you later, or donate them to the country. It's all fine."

Meng Hua also realized that the price of antiques would rise. "My son listened to you and bought a lot of shops in Hong Kong and Beijing over the years. Even if our family goes bankrupt, we will not have to worry about food and drink."

"Be prepared for danger in times of peace. Now that you have Tan Cong, you have to plan more for the children."

Only when you raise a child do you understand the kindness of your parents. As Meng Hua grew older, he gradually understood how difficult it was for his mother.

It was so difficult for him to raise a child, so how difficult it must have been for his mother to bring up the family under such circumstances.

"Mom, I will bring Tan Cong back to see you during the Chinese New Year this year."

"Nonsense, this is your home, Tan Cong is my grandson, if you bring him back, how can mother not welcome him?"

After winter came, Zhen Zhen kept reading newspapers. Finally, the first land auction in Shenzhen Stock Exchange was concluded and all major newspapers reported on it.

8588 square meters, bidding price of 5.25 million yuan!

It was exactly the same as Zhen Zhen remembered.

Five million may not seem like a big number in later generations, but in that era, the total revenue of the entire Shenzhen Stock Exchange was less than 40 million, and the government might not be able to come up with 500,000. However, Zhen Zhen had a fortune of tens of millions, and it was not without reason that Xu Wei did not let her leave Xin Yao County.

With so much money, you can't just limit yourself to small-scale activities. You can be bolder and buy more stocks of well-known companies and invest in real estate.

In the late 1980s, real estate in Nanhai began to soar, and in just a few years, it became an utopia for many gold diggers.

However, Nanhai is currently still called the Nanhai Administrative Region, belongs to Guangdong Province, and is still a poor and remote place.

Zhen Zhen thought that after Nanhai became a special economic zone, she would have to go to Nanhai in person.

Zhen Zhen went to the construction site. Although Mike's team was professional, it was their first time to design a house in the mainland and they were not easily acclimatized. Meng Dazhui and Meng Dajian had been doing well in the past few years and had formed their own construction team, but they were used to small-scale projects and were not professional enough.

Zhen Zhen was afraid that they would have difficulty communicating, so she would stop by from time to time.

"Mr. Zhen!" Mike greeted in unstandard Mandarin.

Zhen Zhen only found out a few days ago that Mike is a mixed-race of Hong Kong and the United States, but his mixed-race features are not obvious, and he looks like a whiter Chinese.

"No trouble, huh?"

Mike relaxed his shoulders helplessly. This kind of small shopping mall project was nothing to their team and was easy to implement. But the problem was that Meng Dazhui and Meng Dajian spoke even worse Mandarin than he did as a Hong Kong native, and they didn't know English, so the two sides often couldn't communicate.

"If you have anything to say, tell me and I'll help you translate." Zhen Zhen said with a smile.

Seeing that she was calm and not arrogant, Mike calmed down and communicated with Meng Dazhu and his brother.

After the two sides finally communicated, a worker shouted, "Boss Zhen, look at what this is!"

Zhen Zhen walked closer and saw that the excavator had dug out a lot of nails for the coffin, and a black coffin lid was faintly visible.

"Did you find the coffin?"

"Boss Zhen, this coffin doesn't look like an ordinary coffin. It might be an ancient tomb. Should we report it to the county?"

These days, anything dug up needs to be handed in, not to mention such a large ancient tomb, which they cannot keep secret.

Zhen Zhen asked Meng Dajian to go and report the incident to the county. The county immediately sent technicians to request that the construction site be temporarily sealed off and workers be prevented from entering.

"Mom, how long will we stop at the mall?" Meng Eryong asked.

Zhen Zhen shook his head, "I don't know. When they are done, we can resume work."

Meng Eryong also felt worried. There were no professional technicians in the county, so he had to send people from above. He didn't know when the ancient tomb could be cleaned up.

"I heard that a lot of cultural relics were dug out from the tomb?"

"There are burial objects such as vases, jewelry, and silk. It is speculated that they were left behind by a wealthy family."

"Didn't the county give us a definite answer?"

"No, the county just told us to wait for news. I will urge County Mayor Xu to help communicate."

It costs a lot to stop work for one day. Various machines have to be rented, and Mike's team also needs a lot of money for food and drink. Zhen Zhen also hopes to resume work as soon as possible.

Seeing that work could not start before the New Year, Zhen Zhen simply gave the workers a holiday and asked them to go home and wait for news.

Two days before the Chinese New Year, Zhen Zhen was peeling peanuts in the yard when he heard a knock on the door from a distance. He opened it and saw Meng Hua coming back with Tan Wenyin and Meng Nan.

"Mom!" Tan Wenyin cried.

Tan Wenyin hadn't been back for more than two years and had matured a lot. Zhen Zhen hugged her and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, Wenyin. You were the one who gave birth to and raised the child. As a mother-in-law, I couldn't help much."

Tan’s family has a nanny. Besides, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is particularly difficult to deal with these days.

The mother-in-law of Tan Wenyin's friend said she was going to take care of her daughter-in-law during her confinement period, but she ended up quarreling with her daughter-in-law every day. She cried out of heartache when her daughter-in-law ate a few noodles during the period.

My friend had a very chaotic time during her confinement, and she was extremely jealous of Tan Wenyin. People around her also said that she was lucky. Although Meng Hua was not from Beijing, she was highly educated, and Tan Wenyin's mother-in-law was good at making money and was an open-minded person, so everyone was particularly jealous.

In contrast, Tan Wenyin felt that it was a good thing that her mother-in-law did not take care of her during the confinement period.

Besides, although the mother-in-law did not go, she gave all the money and also sent old hens, ginseng, free-range eggs and other things from her hometown, for fear that Tan Wenyin would not eat well during the confinement period.

Tan Wenyin eats well, is in a good mood, and feeds her child until he is plump and white.

Zhen Zhen went to Beijing to see Tan Cong. Tan Cong was not shy when he saw her and stretched out his arms for her to hug him.

Tan Wenyin was surprised and said, "Normally, no one wants this child. When my dad holds him, he pouts. But he's quite affectionate to you!"

Zhen Zhen smiled. She was just liked by children. All the children in the family liked her.

She held the soft child in her arms, just like she had held Xiaowu a few years ago. "Tan Cong is the sixth child, so calling him Xiaoliu sounds nice."

Meng Hua and Tan Wenyin had no objection, but Xiao Wu pouted and said unhappily, "Now that you have a new child, you forget about the old one. Grandma is biased!"

Zhen Zhen smiled and hugged him to his knees, "You little ancestor, are you jealous? I hug you every day, but I only hugged Xiaoliu a few times, and you're not happy?"

Xiaowu gritted his teeth and laughed, "Xiaoliu has grown teeth."

The ignorant Xiaoliu stared with round eyes and snuggled into Zhen Zhen's arms, looking at the group of strangers while twirling Zhen Zhen's hair with his fingers.

Meng Daguo came back and was very happy to see Xiaoliu.

"Uncle, give me a hug!"

Xiaoliu was scared and pouted as if he was about to cry, but Meng Daguo picked him up and put him on his shoulder. He carried Xiaoliu around the house, upstairs and downstairs, which made Xiaoliu giggle with joy.

Having another child in the family is joyful, and with Meng Nan back, the group of children are making a lot of noise again.

When Xiaoliu returned home for the first time for the Chinese New Year, Zhenzhen prepared two gold bricks, a pair of gold bracelets and a gold lock as gifts for Xiaoliu.

Tan Wenyin was frightened. She picked up the golden brick and weighed it. "This golden brick is really heavy."

The two characters "Tan Cong" are engraved on the gold brick, gold lock and gold bracelet, which shows that this gift was made with great care.

Tan Wenyin felt a little sorry, "We have everything at home. Meng Hua runs a jewelry store. Why did you buy so many jewelry?"

"He is him, I am me, and I have prepared something for the others as well. Just think of it as a thought from mom for you."

When Tan Wenyin heard that other people also had one, she did not refuse and happily accepted it.

Xiaoliu is a chubby little baby, who looks sweet and cute, and everyone wants to hold him.

He was a little scared at first, babbling all the time. Meng Nan and Xiaowu and a few others used toys and snacks to amuse him. Xiaoliu gradually became familiar with everyone and was always amused and laughed out loud.

"Xiao Liu is so cute." Meng Nan sighed, "I wish I were this old, and my grandma would hold me all day long."

Xiao Wu curled his lips, "Who isn't?"

Sanwa: "I don't want to get smaller. I finally got to this age, and now I'm going back."

Si Ya: "I miss my second sister."

After this was said, Meng Nan and the others fell silent. Meng Xi seldom went home in recent years, and could only stay for a few days each time. It would be a lie to say that he didn't miss her, especially during the Chinese New Year.

Meng Nan went to the swimming team to see Meng Xi this year. Meng Xi has grown a little taller and his training results have improved. He looks very happy.

Meng Nan also missed her sister. She had the best relationship with Meng Xi, and she had raised her sister. They had been separated for many years, and Meng Nan felt a little lost, just like raising a child.

"You said that since Second Sister doesn't come back often, she might not be close to us anymore, right?" Sanwa rubbed his feet, "Will we become estranged and have nothing to talk about when we meet again?"

"No," Wuwawa just said, and Sanwawa put his fingers, which were rubbing his toes, in front of his nose.

Wu Wa has a quirk, he likes to smell the odor of feet. Zhen Zhen has scolded him several times, but he still doesn't repent.

He sniffed it and chuckled: "It stinks!"

Sanwa was satisfied. "If it doesn't stink, is it still called feet? Remember, this is not called stink, it's called manliness!"

"Hey! According to what you said, the pigpen is the most manly place!" Wuwa complained.

Meng Nan couldn't help shaking his head, "Meng Dong, don't do such disgusting things all the time! And Meng Bei, you too, if you get foot odor from Meng Dong one day, what will you do?"

The two of them didn't get angry even after being scolded, they just laughed.

Meng Hua brought back a lot of cakes and pastries from the port city. The family had no shortage of imported food in recent years, so the children didn't take it seriously. But Grandma Meng and Grandma Meng's father had never eaten such delicious food before, so they enjoyed the meal very much.

Zhen Zhen made a new down jacket and down pants for Mrs. Meng, using new materials from Focus Women's Wear. They looked elegant and fashionable. Mrs. Meng loved them very much, and every time she wiped the table, she would take off the down jacket and fold it carefully.

She has been living a good life in recent years and her complexion has improved a lot. She doesn't look like a person in her eighties, but more like a person in her early sixties.

Occasionally she went back to her parents' home to visit her relatives, and her family members all said that she looked younger, much younger than her older sisters in the countryside.

Old Mrs. Meng would be very happy to hear this and would come back to tell Zhen Zhen that Zhen Zhen took good care of them. If it weren't for her, how could they live such a good life?

Meng Hua came back, and the shopping mall at home could not start construction, so Zhen Zhen discussed the land auction with him.

Unexpectedly, Meng Hua had already received news that the South China Sea Special Economic Zone was to be established, and he also planned to go to the South China Sea to pan for gold.

"The country wants to support the Nanhai Special Economic Zone. Land in Nanhai is easy to buy and banks can provide interest-free loans. The policy is very good. I plan to go there after the Chinese New Year to take a look." Meng Hua said.

Meng Daguo listened quietly at the side. He was not as knowledgeable or cultured as Meng Hua. He only knew how to raise pigs and make ham sausage. Now, Double Happiness ham sausage is the best-selling ham sausage in the country, with astonishing sales every month. CCTV advertisements are broadcast every day and it is very well-known.

Meng Daguo was naturally happy, but he always felt that the pig farm and Shuangxi were managed by dedicated people, and it made no difference whether he was there or not. If he could go to Nanhai and do some real estate business with Meng Hua, then he would be considered a real big boss when he went out.

Zhen Zhen pondered:

"This wave of market conditions should last for a few years. I'm thinking, let's buy a few more plots of land in Nanhai, build houses on them, and then sell them when the price is high."

It would be a lie for Meng Hua to say he was not surprised, as he had just heard the news from Tan Zheng. However, his mother had anticipated the situation in the South China Sea.

In fact, Tan Zheng also said that the country must vigorously support the South China Sea. The South China Sea is remote and the local government has no money, so it can only rely on selling land to make money to develop the economy. The higher the land price, the higher the house price. By then, the first group of people who go in to pan for gold will hold the gold mines in their hands and will make money.

It's not surprising that Tan Zheng could predict the economic trend, after all, he held a high position, but his mother had always been in Xin Yao County, and even if she was successful in her career, she shouldn't have such foresight.

In fact, this was not the first time his mother had surprised him.

There were many times when Meng Hua felt that his mother was very strange. She had a vision and foresight that was beyond her time.

But Meng Hua didn't believe in supernatural powers. He just thought that his mother had awakened and changed her mind. But if you look deeper, how could an uneducated rural woman be more far-sighted than a highly educated person? How could she be more discerning than a female boss in Hong Kong?

How is it possible to see a future that others cannot see?

A bold guess flashed through Meng Hua's mind, but he felt that he was being too ridiculous.

Meng Hua came to his senses and asked tentatively, "Mom, what do you think the South China Sea will become in the future?"

Zhen Zhen pondered:

"It's hard to say how it will develop, but at any time, information gap is the most important. If you get the information first, you will have the most favorable conditions, and you can be the first to try it."

Meng Hua nodded absentmindedly.

Naoqingsong is going to research an oral liquid for children this year, which was proposed by Meng Hua.

"There are many only children in Beijing who don't like to eat at a young age. They need to be coaxed every time they eat. I consulted the formula researchers in the factory, and they said that supplementing zinc and calcium can make children eat more. We add these things to the oral liquid and design a safe and effective oral liquid specifically for children."

In recent years, health care products have grown rapidly. Naoqingsong has appeared on the Spring Festival Gala for several years in a row, and its sales have been rising steadily.

Zhen Zhen said that she had a fortune of several tens of millions, but at this time she, Meng Hua and Jiang Dong shared the income equally.

In fact, she earned much more than this from health supplements.

Now that people's lives have improved, children are raised like little emperors. As long as parents are told that oral liquid can help children eat and promote digestion and absorption, they are willing to spend money on their children.

Zhen Zhen feels that the times are changing rapidly, and many ideas have found a fertile ground for implementation.

One day before the Chinese New Year, Zhen Zhen heard a horn at the door. She went out and saw Jiang Dongping driving a black Santana and parked in front of the Haopo Po store.

Zhen Zhen walked over and asked with a smile, "Bought a car?"

"I bought it!" Jiang Dongping was wearing a leather jacket, a black leather bag, and glasses, looking quite elegant and chic. "It's inconvenient to run business and negotiate business without a car. There happened to be one in stock in the market, so I just bought it. It can be used to pick up the kids and send Meng Li to her parents' home."

Last year, Meng Li opened a training school. It was a small-scale school at first, teaching people painting, sewing and the like.

Earlier this year, Jiang Dongping paid for a batch of computers, intending to let Meng Li open a computer training school in Beijing.

Meng Li's business has grown and she has become more agile than before. In spring and autumn, she wears a white suit, which looks really serious.

Meng Daguo and Meng Eryong had originally had no obsession with cars, but they became excited when they saw Jiang Dongping's Santana.
