Why are you looking at me like that?
Chen Yunyun felt uneasy, afraid that he would drag her to play cards again.
Rong Yan curved his thin lips into a light smile, the curve alluring.
“I remember you said before that you wanted to open a garment factory and a hot pot restaurant.”
Chen Yunyun was surprised. She had only said it casually at the time, but he had remembered it for so long?
Their raw material factory seemed to be very profitable, but it was a collective economy, and most of the income was handed over to the state.
If Chen Yunyun wants to earn more money, she will probably have to find another way.
Running her own factory or business independently would be speculation, and indeed only Hong Kong could realize her vision.
With this in mind, Chen Yunyun's thoughts began to stir.
"If you open a garment factory, I can provide the design drawings."
"I can also provide recipes for hot pot restaurants."
“But I can’t go to Hong Kong myself, so you have to go.”
"Rong Yan, let's do this together."
Her eyes sparkled as she said this, making it hard to refuse.
Rong Yan nodded in agreement.
Now Chen Yunyun was completely out of control.
They started researching the precautions for opening a garment factory.
"Look, the most popular clothing styles in department stores now are actually just so-so, and the colors and styles are outdated."
"We can design some simple and elegant styles. These clothes are durable and will never go out of style. We can also be bold in terms of color."
"If we're going to set up a garment factory, then we need to strictly control the fabric and the quality of our clothes..."
When it comes to work, Chen Yunyun talks non-stop.
The children and Rong Yan listened silently without interrupting, feeling that she was knowledgeable and well-read, completely different from other women.
She was truly dazzling under the dim kerosene lamp.
Xu Jingtian whispered in admiration, "Mom is so amazing, she knows everything!"
Xu Jingrun, however, stared blankly at the red burn on the back of Chen Yunyun's hand caused by hot oil.
Mother's luck seems to be getting worse and worse.
Even after he took many lucky charms, there was no improvement.
He quietly left, went to his room, took down a pile of ancient books from the bookshelf, and studied them carefully.
Besides the book of talismans given to him by the founding emperor, he also collected many ancient books. Most of these books were not well preserved, with some missing a corner or the characters blurred.
For the rest of the time, Chen Yunyun discussed opening a shop with Rong Yan.
The garment factory required extensive preparation and significant investment in its initial stages.
She decided to open a hot pot restaurant first, exchanged the recipe for hot pot base with the system, and then went to the county town to buy a lot of spices to try making it herself.
She was in poor health, so she rarely went to the county town.
Since she had come all this way, she first went to the county's primary school to see the children.
Tiger and Xu Jingtian are in the second grade. Tiger's grades are just barely keeping up with the teacher's pace, while Xu Jingtian is smart and quick-witted, and is in no way inferior to her brother when it comes to studying.
Her teacher always gives special praise for her homework.
At the back of the classroom, there was also a model essay with her neat handwriting.
"my mom"
Study hard and serve your country.
Above the essay, the teacher's bold red pen writing of "100 points" stood out prominently.
Chen Yunyun looked at it carefully and smiled. This girl's writing was actually quite good.
It was recess time, and many children were still in the classroom. When they saw Chen Yunyun talking to the teacher in the back, they all whispered among themselves.
"Is this Xu Jingtian's mother?"
"She's so young."
“I heard from my dad that Xu Jingtian’s mother is the factory manager. She’s been to the furniture factory where my dad works before, and she’s very powerful. There was a bad woman who used to bully people in the factory, and Xu Jingtian’s mother caught her and fired her.”
Children often have a natural sense of admiration for powerful and influential people, and their gazes toward Chen Yunyun and Xu Jingtian became even more intense.
Xu Jingtian has such a young and capable mother who treats her so well; they must be so envious.
Xu Jingtian and Xu Jingrun were not in the same grade. After leaving Xu Jingtian's class, she went to the sixth-grade classroom.
Yes, that's right. Xu Jingrun was exceptionally intelligent and was allowed to skip grades.
When the teacher in the class heard that she was Xu Jingrun's mother, she put down what she was doing, brought Chen Yunyun a stool, and looked like she wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with her.
Chen Yunyun's brow twitched, but she remained still.
But then the teacher said, "Jingrun's mom, even if you don't come to school, I figured I'd still find some time to see you."
