Chapter 682: Family Cos First

Although Chen Fan didn't know exactly how much money was needed to buy that shop, judging from Third Aunt's reaction, 100,000 yuan was definitely enough, and there might even be quite a bit left over.

Li Jinqiu wanted to say sothing, but was gently pulled back and stopped by her husband beside her.

Second Aunt was still quite honest, and sowhat embarrassedly said, "It's too much. Your cousin doesn't need that much money to open a repair shop."

Chen Fan smiled though, "Second Aunt, I said this is money to sponsor my cousin's business venture."

"Also, Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt, Chen Xiao is still in school, so I'm sponsoring him 100,000 yuan as well, consider it money for my cousin's future college education."

Hearing this, Fourth Aunt suddenly stood up.

"Xiao Fan, we can't accept this money."

"Your Fourth Uncle's previous hospitalization and surgery already cost you a lot of money, and Chen Xiao doesn't need that much money for school..."

But Chen Fan shook his head with a smile.

"One thing at a ti."

Fourth Uncle Chen Jianlong quietly pulled his wife to sit down.

Although what his wife just said wasn't wrong, directly refusing now could easily offend people.

Didn't she see that Second Sister and Third Sister-in-law were still waiting for this money?

At this mont, Chen Jianye suddenly spoke up: "Since this money is given by Xiao Fan, you should accept it. There's no need to argue further."

Seeing that her eldest brother had spoken, Fourth Aunt finally stopped talking.

Third Aunt secretly glanced at her husband, and suddenly smiled and said,

"Xiao Fan, look at our family. I was laid off last year, and now we're relying entirely on your Third Uncle's ager salary."

"I really worry about your Third Uncle's health, he's too tired."

"You're a big boss now. Third Aunt is not asking for anything else, just wondering if you could help find a job in your company. It would also help ease your Third Uncle's burden a bit."

Third Uncle Chen Jianzhong looked at his wife in surprise. Obviously, she had said this on impulse without discussing it with him beforehand.

Chen Fan looked a bit troubled: "Third Aunt, our company indeed has rules that no one can engage in nepotism or bring direct relatives into the company."

"I set this rule myself and must set a good example. You wouldn't want to violate the rules, would you?"

Third Aunt smiled and said, "I know, I know, you ntioned it last ti."

"But Third Aunt isn't asking to be a manager, just find any job. That's fine."

"Third Aunt used to be an accountant in the factory. Why don't you let co to the company to manage the accounts? At least it would be more reassuring with family."

Chen Fan frowned slightly, looking troubled.

Second Aunt suddenly spoke up: "Let's not put Xiao Fan in a difficult position. He said there are rules, we should support him."

Third Aunt smiled and said, "He's the boss himself, can't the rules be changed with just a word? Besides, I'm not asking to be a manager or anything, how would a small accountant position affect anything?"

"You can't say that. If Chen Fan makes an exception for you, then other executives will want to bring people in too. What should Chen Fan do then?"

"Third Sister-in-law, I think Second Sister has a point. Let's not put Chen Fan in a difficult position."

Seeing Second Sister and Fourth Brother both standing up in opposition, Chen Fan's Third Uncle quickly glared at his wife.

"Alright, stop talking."

Third Sister-in-law pouted: "Now you're good at playing the nice guy. I don't know who was complaining at ho all day about not going out to work."

"I just wanted to find a job to help lighten your burden."

"But we can't put Xiao Fan in a difficult position!"

"Shut up!"

Being scolded in front of the whole family, Third Uncle felt a bit embarrassed and couldn't help but shout loudly.

At this point, Chen Fan's father Chen Jianye suddenly spoke up: "Alright, Third Brother, stop yelling. Your wife's idea isn't wrong. But Third Brother's wife, Xiao Fan really does have rules. Otherwise, we're all family, how could he not help if he could?"

Seeing the atmosphere becoming a bit awkward, Chen Fan sighed inwardly.

"Well, I've thought of a solution."

As Chen Fan spoke up, everyone's eyes turned to him.

Chen Fan pondered for two seconds before explaining, "Third Aunt, it really won't work to have you co work at the company. As the boss, I have to take the lead in following the rules. However..."

"We're all relatives after all, and I can't let people point fingers at my parents' backs, saying the Chen family boy made it big and forgot about his relatives and friends..."

Second Aunt quickly said, "Xiao Fan, it's not that serious. If anyone in the village dares to gossip in the future, I'll be the first to go scold them at their doorstep."

"Thank you, Second Aunt. I know you care for the most." Chen Fan smiled with a hint of coquetry, then changed the subject.

"But Third Aunt did have a point just now."

"So, I've co up with an idea."

"Now our Third Aunt and Fourth Aunt have both been laid off, and Second Aunt and Uncle's only inco cos from that small supermarket in the village..."

"This is what I'm thinking. Second Aunt has experience running a supermarket. I'll put up so money to open a supermarket in the county town. This supermarket will be jointly operated by Second Aunt, Third Aunt, and Fourth Aunt's families. You three families will each hold 30% of the shares, and my parents will hold 10%."

"In the future, you three families will split the profits from the supermarket equally. How does that sound?"

Hearing this, the living room suddenly fell silent.

Third Aunt's eyes lit up a bit, "Xiao Fan, are you serious? That's..."

"Really too good."

Third Aunt was very excited. After all, opening a supermarket was much better than having a job.

Not only would they earn more, but they would also be their own bosses.

Second Aunt could hardly believe it, "Xiao Fan, are you... are you saying to open a small supermarket in the county town?"

Chen Fan shook his head: "Second Aunt, if we're going to open one, let's open a big one. At least several hundred square ters."

Everyone gasped.

This wasn't just a supermarket. To be honest, it would be considered a small shopping mall in the county town.

Third Aunt was so excited her breathing beca rapid. Even Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt widened their eyes and nervously clenched their fists.

Second Aunt was so nervous she started to stamr.

"Xiao, Xiao Fan, if we're really going to open such a supermarket, the investnt would... would not be a small amount."

Chen Fan smiled, "Money is not a problem."

"Actually, my parents have ntioned the situation of each family to many tis before."

"It's just that I've been too busy and kept putting this matter off."

"From childhood to adulthood, everyone has helped my family a lot. As family, it's only right that I do sothing for everyone."

"So, I'll only be responsible for the funding. As for choosing the location, decoration, stocking and such for the supermarket, Second Aunt should know better than ."

"When you've chosen a good location for the store, let know and I'll transfer the money over."

Chen Fan thought for a mont and said, "I'll invest 2 million yuan for everyone."

"If it's not enough, I'll add more later."

With these words, the scene fell into complete silence.

2 million yuan...

It was indeed an astronomical figure in these tis.
