After Cheng Su returned ho from Little Yu and the others, she told Qi Taiguo about the situation of the bun shop and showed him the stock ownership docunt.
"She insisted that we accept it, I couldn’t refuse her, so I accepted." Cheng Su said, "In the future, if there’s an opportunity, they can redeem it back."
Qi Taiguo replied, "Since she gave it to you, just keep it. Don’t be fooled by her gentle appearance; she’s actually quite stubborn inside. Once she decides on sothing, she won’t turn back. Back in the day, even when her parents-in-law advised her to remarry, she refused, kneeling in front of them saying she wouldn’t leave, and if they forced her to leave, she would die with her two children."
Cheng Su was surprised, "Really, sothing like that happened?"
Qi Taiguo nodded, "That’s why her parents-in-law treat her even better than their own two daughters. After all, they were touched by her sincerity. She’s suffered for so many years, and now with the bun shop, she hopes life will get better and that there’s hope for the future. It’s not in vain that she’s endured all these years!"
Cheng Su also liked Little Yu’s character very much, so she said, "It surely will be. Good things happen to good people."
"Speaking of which, it’s also her luck to have t you." Qi Taiguo held Cheng Su’s hand and said, "Wife, thank you. All these things you’ve done are actually for . Thank you!"
Cheng Su felt a bit shy and said, "Why are you saying all this?"
"I’m so lucky you ca to this era, to be by my side!" Qi Taiguo looked at her sincerely.
"Then treat well in the future, don’t let other people bully , always stand by my side!" Cheng Su took the opportunity to ask for a promise, why not take advantage when the opportunity arises?
Qi Taiguo nodded, "Absolutely!"
...
The bun shop on Little Yu’s side opened successfully, and Cheng Su felt relieved, turning her focus to expanding her jam business southwards.
Wang Bo brought news that the shelves set up at Lailai Departnt Store were already stocked, and the location for the distribution store was also chosen. It’s right in the city center, with very convenient transportation and a large flow of people, thanks to the Cheng family’s help. He had already sent the salespeople out to secure orders.
This is considered a good start, and Cheng Su felt happy inside, revisiting her plans once again.
Her interest in Guangcheng is substantial, not just because of the jam business. While the business itself is one matter, what she’s truly interested in is its future developnt and the land in Guangcheng.
Cheng Su was no longer content with buying land and constructing houses in Qing City; her sights were set on Guangcheng. The land is cheap now, and if she could gather a few plots, she could profit when the real estate market booms in the future.
However, this year all of Cheng Su’s money was invested in the construction of a restaurant, which only reopened three or four months ago. It’s still far from breaking even; it would take at least a year or two to see any dividends!
So, calling Cheng Su a pauper now isn’t wrong. She doesn’t have the money to invest in buying land; she’s just a pauper, and the thousands on hand aren’t much, just enough to scrape by.
But that doesn’t stop this from becoming Cheng Su’s new goal.
It’s already 1987, and if she doesn’t seize the opportunity, once the 90s arrive, the land will beco expensive. By then, even with money, she might not be able to afford it. So, if she wants to buy, she has to buy now.
But there’s no money, so what should she do?
Cheng Su set her eyes on the current policy of economic reform and opening up. Among the excellent benefits provided by the country to stimulate rural economic developnt is an interest-free loan.
If she could secure such a loan, how could she still worry about being unable to buy land?
