Chapter 74 The Tragic Story of Lin Laosan



Thus, at Lin Li's request, the unfortunate Lin Laosan began his days of searching everywhere for a shop!

After Lin Li handed over the tasks here to Lin Laosan, she felt much more relaxed!

When she had nothing to do during the day, she would return to her courtyard house in Beijing and go to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital to learn from Dr. Yu.

That evening, I returned to my home in Shenzhen and listened to the stories of several shops that Lin Laosan had found after asking around.

"Mom, I've basically searched the whole city, and these are the few shops I think are good. Why don't you come with me to take a look tomorrow!"

Lin Li looked at the promotional materials that Lin Laosan had brought back and nodded.

"Go ahead, I won't go. I trust your judgment!" After saying that, she took out her bankbook and handed it to him.

"You can register two of the four shops in your own name. Consider this your initial capital from Mom. From now on, you'll have to start earning your own money for a wife!"

Lin Laosan blushed with embarrassment upon hearing the words "wife's dowry," and lowered his head, lost in thought.

"Don't be shy, you're almost 23 years old, it's time to think about this!"

"good!"

Lin Laosan looked up, his eyes shining brightly, "Thank you, Mom, I will work hard to earn money!"

Lin Li patted his shoulder and laughed heartily!

"Does this mean he already has a girl he likes?"

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Laosan nodded. "I don't know what she's thinking yet, but lately I've noticed her image appearing in my mind quite often. I guess that means I like her!"

After listening, Lin Li smiled and said, "You are responsible for your feelings. I'll only tell you one thing: if she truly likes you, you can be together. But if she has other motives for approaching you, then I'm sorry, I will break you up!"

After hearing Lin Li's words, Lin Laosan grinned, revealing all eight of his front teeth. "I understand. If she didn't truly love me, I wouldn't be with her!"

"Remember what you said. If Mom hits you too hard and you resist, I will disown you..."

After a moment's thought, Lin Laosan nodded firmly.

If a mother can see that her son has a problem, but he still blindly believes her and doesn't trust his mother, then his mother should indeed kick him out!

Seeing the trust in Lin Laosan's eyes, he curled the corners of his lips into a smile, "You can't tell her our family secret before I agree to let her into the house..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Laosan immediately straightened his back, looked at Lin Li solemnly, and assured her, "I won't tell her our family secrets, not even after we get married! Mom, you can trust me!"

"good!"

Lin Li still trusted Lin Laosan's filial piety and character. Whether it was in the original owner's previous life or in her interactions with him recently, she felt that she had a good eye for people!

After the mother and son finished their heart-to-heart talk, Lin Laosan became even more responsible in his actions!

He quickly bought the four shops and began looking for business opportunities.

This time, he plans to bring goods from Shenzhen to Beijing to sell and earn the price difference.

He borrowed the initial capital from Lin Li and wrote an IOU. Since it was for his future wife, Lin Laosan wanted to earn it all himself!

Time flies when you're busy!

Before they knew it, it was the day before Lin Laosan was to return to Beijing to study!

"Mom, could you please put these things into my spatial storage and take them to Beijing? That way I can save a lot on travel expenses!"

Lin Laosan had his own plans; with so much stuff, the travel expenses saved would be considerable!

"Fine! Mother and son should keep clear accounts. I'll take it to you, but you have to pay for the travel expenses..."

? ? ?

Are they really mother and son?

Lin Laosan stared at Lin Li in disbelief, his face full of question marks!

Lin Li raised an eyebrow. He needed to know the costs that were necessary, otherwise he would think that business was easy.

His lips twitched, and looking at his mother's outstretched hand, he took a deep breath and forced a smile.

"Mom, I'll write you an IOU first, and pay you back together after I earn the money!"

Lin Li nodded and took out paper and pen. "I'm only lending it to you interest-free because you're like my own son."

"Understood!" Lin Laosan took the paper and pen, wrote down the IOU neatly, and then handed it to Lin Li.

"Mom, then please take this to Beijing for me!"

With a wave of her hand, Lin Li's goods, which filled the living room, vanished and instantly appeared in a room in a courtyard house in Beijing.

Convenient, fast, and safe!

Have you packed your luggage?

"Alright!" Lin Laosan dragged out his heavy suitcase.

"Let's go to a restaurant and have a nice meal, as a way of sending you off!"

Go to a restaurant for the staff's boxed lunch? To see him off?

Well, at least we got a decent meal. You know, it's really hard to book a table at Nanhai Pavilion these days; you have to book three days in advance to guarantee a spot.

The mother and son had just strolled leisurely to Nanhai Pavilion when they saw Wang Jianguo hurriedly walking out of the restaurant.

Upon seeing the two of them, he quickly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Boss, I was just about to come find you."

"Is it urgent?"

"Yes, we've found the pharmaceutical company's management personnel. Xiao Chen from the management office happened to bring them along. Would you like to meet them?"

"OK!"

After seeing that factory last time, Lin Li changed her plans. Actually, opening a pharmaceutical factory wouldn't be a bad idea; the equipment and production lines in the factory wouldn't be wasted.

The skincare products use Chinese medicinal herbs, and we can just open another production line later, no problem!

As she was thinking and taking her first step into the South China Sea Pavilion, she saw Wang Jianguo still standing outside the door.

"Is there anything else?" She turned to look at him.

"Uh! Boss, your phone line has been installed. The post office just came by to let us know they'll be coming to install it in a bit..."

Lin Li glanced at the already overcrowded South Sea Pavilion and pointed at Lin Laosan.

"Prepare a staff meal for the third son to take home. He can go home and wait for the post office to come and install the telephone. You don't need to go over there; things are getting busy here again!"

Lin Laosan: ...

Is this what Mom meant by seeing someone off?

Resignedly, he accepted the employee lunchbox handed to him by the staff, turned around, and headed home.

He had no choice but to obey his mother's orders!

Sigh...!

A leaf drifted down onto his head on the sea breeze, seemingly lamenting his misery!

Lin Li was completely oblivious to Lin Laosan's sorrowful mood; she was currently examining the middle-aged man in front of her, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses, while holding his resume.

Name: Gao Zhe; Education: Master's Degree...

Highly qualified personnel!

"What made you decide to return to China?" Lin Li asked curiously, looking at his resume.

"I believe that the country's development will be very rapid after the reform and opening up..."

Lin Li looked up at him, "...I have great faith in the fighting spirit and resilience of our people!"

Looking closely into his eyes to make sure he was telling the truth, I continued, "Do you have experience managing a pharmaceutical factory?"
