"Get out! Get out!" Shen Canglang stood up and roughly pushed Shen Mingzhi away.
Jiang Shaozhen quickly shielded her, saying, "We'll walk by ourselves."
Shen Canglang was also furious. After his hand was blocked, he slowly calmed down. "Don't blame me for not giving you face. My son is still lying in a hospital in another city. He didn't even come back for the New Year! He was attacked and only had someone call back after he woke up. We didn't even know he was in trouble!"
"Shaochen, you're a father now, you should understand my feelings. The Lunar New Year is almost here, we can't get in touch with him, we don't know which city he went to, we're frantic with worry every day, asking around everywhere, and then he was attacked and killed..."
As Shen Canglang finished speaking, he glared fiercely at Shen Mingzhi, "I wanted to come find you, but Li An stopped me, saying you were busy at the end of the year, that you were competing with Jiang Huanyu, and that you needed to focus on helping the factory overcome its difficulties..."
Shen Mingzhi felt very guilty. She clenched her fists at her sides and bowed deeply. "If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn't have come to find you. I'm sorry..."
"You want to support a factory's workers? Fine, I won't bother you, but you've come looking for me!" Shen Canglang was unaware of what he had done for Shen Mingzhi. If he had known, he wouldn't have just scolded her today; he would have at least beaten her out with a big stick!
“If I had known, I would have gone to see him and look for him even though I had to put aside my work at the factory during the Spring Festival,” Shen Mingzhi said apologetically.
"Go away, go away. I don't want to see you, and I don't want to see Li An. I don't understand the mentality of you businessmen. All I know is that my only son almost lost his life because he was doing business with you. You didn't even come to my house to ask about him during the New Year!" Shen Canglang waved his hand.
With Jiang Shaozhen here, he didn't even bother to scold Shen Mingzhi.
Shen Mingzhi was escorted out of Jiang Shaozhen's office and found that many people were watching outside.
“If I had known his condition was so serious, I would have definitely made time to visit him during the Chinese New Year,” Shen Mingzhi told Jiang Shaochen.
"Do you think I don't know who you are? Shen Xiuzhu's incident was an accident...you didn't expect it either." Jiang Shaozhen patted her shoulder. "You go find him, and I'll go ask around at Peking Union Medical College Hospital for you. What do you think?"
"We'll see," Shen Mingzhi said softly.
She didn't even know if what she was doing was right or wrong.
What if the next distributor ends up like that?
They are all children with parents... The youngest is only in his early twenties, and the oldest is only twenty-five... If something happens, how will she take responsibility?
After getting on the bus, Shen Mingzhi remained silent.
I have no interest in reading the written materials in my hand.
As Jiang Shaozhen drove, he secretly glanced at her while waiting at traffic lights.
When the two returned to the courtyard, Jiang Shaozhen saw her getting out of the car with a heavy heart and took her wrist. "This really can't be blamed on you. Go and see Xiuzhu. Do what you originally planned. The factory is about to be renovated, and Jiang Huanyu is also laying out his own business empire. You can't stop at this time."
Shen Mingzhi unconsciously turned to look at him, "But I only thought about making money and didn't consider the safety of these people. That kind of thinking is too selfish."
“Is this your problem? This is a problem of the overall environment. This situation will be rectified sooner or later.” Jiang Shaozhen told her, “You should make it clear to the distributors that they must develop local people in the area. They can act as the upstream and downstream people behind the scenes. They should not show their faces easily and just be careful.”
Shen Mingzhi still had some hesitation.
When she returned, she thought it would be better to make money locally, since this was the capital and the security was much better than other places.
"All I can do is support you. You really should consider these issues and have a foolproof plan." After saying that, Jiang Shaozhen took her hand and led her into the house.
“I can completely understand why Mr. Shen was so angry. When the two children were taken away, I was like a madman… I can’t imagine how he felt after raising the children for so long, only to have them get into trouble in another city.” Shen Mingzhi said, unable to help but sigh.
Jiang Shaozhen pulled her to sit down next to him and poured her some water.
There was no one inside; Wang Sao and Jiang Qing probably took the child out to play.
After finishing her water, Shen Mingzhi sighed heavily. "I have to go out of town, and it will probably take a long time... By the time I come back, Jiang Huanyu will have completed most of the work. I'm wondering, is it even worth it?"
As they fought, many of their subordinates risked their lives to help them.
Although a crackdown was scheduled for 1983, there was still a year to go.
A lot can happen in a year.
“Of course I remember. You should remember how those workers looked when they received their money for the New Year. I remember it vividly. Our country is poor now, and developing the economy is imperative. Wouldn’t it be a waste if someone as capable as you didn’t participate?” Jiang Shaozhen said.
Shen Mingzhi was amused by his words.
She's not a capable person at all; she just got an early advantage.
Taking a deep breath, she put down her water glass and grasped Jiang Shao Chen's hand. "Then I'll trouble you to give this material to Xiehe Hospital. I plan to sell the cosmeceuticals at a lower price this year, going through a wider distribution channel than Jiang Huan Yu did. We can sell them not only in department stores, but also in hospitals, small pharmacies, and even cosmetics stores."
When Jiang Shaochen heard her say these things, he couldn't help but feel happy and even honored for her.
She always shines when she's in work mode.
Jiang Shao Chen grasped her hand in return, leaned closer, and kissed her cheek. "Has anyone ever told you that when you talk about work, you're especially radiant, glowing, and incredibly attractive?"
"Nobody's around. I spend every day with that old man, Director Sun. It's already good enough that he doesn't cause me any trouble," Shen Mingzhi said with a smile.
She pulled away from Jiang Shao Chen's hand, wrapped her arms around his neck, and whispered, "I'll miss you when I'm away, and you have to remember to miss me too."
Jiang Shaozhen hadn't spoken yet.
Jiang Qing, carrying the child back, exclaimed, "It's broad daylight! If you want to be affectionate, go back to your room. There are people coming and going at the gate. What if bad rumors start circulating?!"
Jiang Shaozhen kissed Shen Mingzhi's lips again. "What business is it of theirs if I'm being intimate with my wife? Besides, it's in my own yard, so what?"
"Why are you back so early today?" asked Wang's wife, who was holding Jiang Zhou.
Jiang Shao Chen walked over, about to answer her and catch Jiang Zhou at the same time, but Jiang Zhou turned his head and arrogantly leaned on Wang Sao's shoulder.
"Oh dear, how did you offend our Zhouzhou?" Aunt Wang immediately teased with a smile.
“Yesterday he insisted on making Zhouzhou learn to walk, which made Zhouzhou angry. He still remembers it the next day.” Shen Mingzhi laughed along.
Jiang Shaozhen could only let Aunt Wang hold him. "I have something to do today. By the way, could you pack Zhizhi's luggage? She's probably going to the south in the next couple of days."
