Chapter 911 Shanxi Aged Vinegar

After four years, I met my younger brother Tian Runsheng again. At this time, Tian Runye was almost unrecognizable. He was wearing a clean and tidy military uniform that fit him very well. He no longer had the timid look in my impression.

"Runsheng."

"Sister, is that you?"

"It's me! I'm back."

Tian Runsheng looked at his sister with surprise. He hadn't heard from her in four years. It felt like a dream, not real at all. "Sister, have you gone home to see our parents?"

"I just came from home, and I heard them talk about some things about you." Tian Runye smiled and explained to her brother, and said something with a hint of meaning.

"Sister, what did our parents tell you?" Tian Runsheng looked at Tian Runye with a bitter smile on his face. He really didn't know how to convince the couple.

"Runsheng, let's find a place to sit down and talk. It's a good opportunity for you to tell me everything that's on your mind."

"Okay! I do have a lot to say."

Finally, the brother and sister found a restaurant in the county town, ordered a few dishes and started chatting, but Tian Runsheng insisted on ordering a bottle of wine. It was obvious that the events of the past few years made him feel very depressed, and he wanted to vent by drinking.

After the waiter from the state-owned restaurant brought a bottle of baijiu and two glasses of Shaanxi liquor, Tian Runsheng wanted to drink more, but was stopped by Tian Runye across from him. "Runsheng, if you have something on your mind, just say it. Drowning your sorrows in alcohol will only make you more worried, just like your brother-in-law who never drinks."

"Haha, sister, it seems that my cheap brother-in-law treats you very well?" Tian Runsheng put down his wine glass and asked Tian Runye with a smile.

"You little bastard! What nonsense are you talking about? A brother-in-law is a brother-in-law, why do you have to add the word cheap?"

"Sister, am I wrong? He kidnapped you so easily back then."

"Go to hell! You're getting more and more ridiculous. I volunteered to be your sister back then."

"Sister, do you know?" Seeing the happy smile on his sister's face, Tian Runsheng felt relieved and recalled his own miserable experience. "I didn't have much thought about Hao Hongmei at first. I just felt sorry for them as an orphan and a widow, so I couldn't help but feel compassion for them. I occasionally helped them when I was on a mission to deliver supplies. But then rumors about Hao Hongmei and me spread in the village. You say we have a lot of mouths, but who can we go to for justice?"

"Runsheng, now that you put it that way, you don't have any feelings for her anymore?" Tian Runye looked at Tian Runsheng strangely and asked, feeling that things between the two of them were not simple.

"Sister, humans are emotional animals. How can we remain indifferent after spending so long together? So, she and I are indeed in love."

"Hey! What does Hao Hongmei think?" Tian Runye then asked the other party's opinion. After all, there is no point in being too enthusiastic.

"Hao Hongmei? She's like a wounded rabbit right now, anxious and worried about every little thing happening in the outside world. Add to that our parents' lack of understanding, and it's really tough for the two of us right now."

"Runsheng, how about I send you to Hong Kong? No one will look at you strangely there." In fact, Tian Runye had made up her mind from the beginning. It would be best to take Tian Runsheng and Hao Hongmei to an unfamiliar place.

"Hong Kong?" Tian Runsheng looked confused. He knew nothing about this place.

"Yes! Your classmate Sun Shaoping was arranged by your brother-in-law to go to the University of Hong Kong four years ago. He is now studying abroad at the University of Munich in Germany. You can actually ask your brother-in-law to arrange for you to go to university as well."

"Sister, I have no interest in going to college. I didn't even take the college entrance examination this year. But I'm quite surprised by what happened with Sun Shaoping. In fact, he was Hao Hongmei's first love."

"Runsheng, even if you don't want to go to university, your brother-in-law can help you find a job in Hong Kong. It's definitely better than living in the poor mountains of northern Shaanxi for the rest of your life."

"Sister, it seems that you and my brother-in-law are doing well out there, but it's unlikely that Hao Hongmei will leave. After all, she can't let go of her child with her ex-husband."

"Then take them together! You don't have to endure other people's strange looks and can live your life happily." At this time, Tian Runye smiled and said indifferently. These things were no big deal in their hands.

"Sister, what about our parents?" As expected, Tian Runye's generosity and proposal made Tian Runsheng moved.

"Your brother-in-law said that the mainland market will become more and more open in the future, and people will be free to come and go from Hong Kong to the mainland. This is why your brother-in-law dared to take me out back then. So you can go back to northern Shaanxi to visit them anytime."

"really?"

"Haha, Runsheng, do I need to lie to you?"

"Okay then! I'll go discuss this with Hao Hongmei tomorrow. I think she'll agree."

"Well, the education, medical care, and life in Hong Kong are all very convenient. At least they are incomparable to what's happening in northern Shaanxi right now. Going there will broaden your horizons and provide you with more development opportunities."

"Sister, thank you and brother-in-law."

"Runsheng, go home! For the time being, just deal with those two elders. After all, I already disappointed them a lot. Don't imitate me and fight with them again."

"Okay! I'll go check on them as soon as possible."

"Don't tell them about Hao Hongmei. I'll explain to them that I'm just taking you to Hong Kong to find a job. Once you get there, things will naturally be easier for you and Hao Hongmei."

"Okay! We'll all listen to you."

Seeing that her brother agreed so easily, Tian Runye felt very relieved. In fact, she had long intended to take Tian Runsheng to Hong Kong to see the world, because she knew clearly the gap between Hong Kong and the mainland.

Moreover, seeing Sun Shaoping, Tian Runsheng's classmate, flying higher and higher, Tian Runye unconsciously felt a little uncomfortable. After all, her younger brother was still an ordinary person in his hometown in northern Shaanxi. Such a huge gap naturally made Tian Runye have other little thoughts, but this is also the most basic human nature.

... Naturally, Mr. and Mrs. Tian Futang could not know too many details. When they saw their son finally coming back, they thought that Tian Runye had persuaded Tian Runsheng. As for letting Tian Runsheng go to Hong Kong to work, they became hesitant. After all, the ideas formed over a long period of time are not so easy to break.

"Dad, Mom, I know what you are worried about, so I feel that your worries are unnecessary." Tian Runye could see her parents' worries at a glance, and then smiled and comforted them indifferently.

"Runye, don't fool me. I also read the People's Daily every day. The market opening mentioned in the newspaper is only in the discussion stage." At this time, Tian Futang showed off his cleverness again. Naturally, he didn't want his beloved son to do anything dangerous.

"Dad, Shaoan's company has already built a factory in Shenzhen. He also said that market opening is the general trend. He saw this and dared to take me to Hong Kong back then. He wanted to bring the funds and technology to build our hometown in northern Shaanxi today."

"Runye, is this really the case?"

"That's great! Since the matter between Runsheng and Hao Hongmei has been resolved, why don't we go to the next county to find my second dad and listen to his analysis of the matter and his opinion on Runsheng's matter."

"That's fine! Our Tian family has produced a great man, your second father, who is also an important cadre trained by the country. Naturally, he sees things more clearly than we do."

"Dad, you're absolutely right! I've always admired my second dad since I was little."

"Humph! Then why did you leave without saying goodbye, instead of going to the county to ask his opinion?"

"Huh? Dad, why are you bringing this up again?"

"Humph!"

Tian Runye then took his family to the next county and brought a detailed plan developed by Ningyuan Group. "Second Dad, I'm back."

"Runye, it's great that you can come back. Your parents and I were very worried about your safety." Tian Fujun looked at his niece in front of him with a face full of relief. He knew clearly the achievements made by Suning and Tian Runye.

"I'm sorry! I made you worry."

"Runye, I heard that you are going to take Runsheng to Hong Kong?" As an elder, he naturally would not really blame the child. Instead, he asked about what Tian Futang had just mentioned.

"Yes! When Shaoan took us to Hong Kong, the first thing he did was to send Sun Shaoping to the University of Hong Kong. Now Sun Shaoping has gone to the University of Munich in Germany to study mechanical engineering, striving to return to serve the motherland after graduation. So I wanted to bring Runsheng to Hong Kong to see the world."

People are most afraid of competing and comparing with each other. If everyone stayed in the mountains of their hometown in northern Shaanxi, they would naturally share the joys and sorrows together. However, Sun Shaoping's departure and rapid growth changed a lot of things.

"Great! The two Sun brothers are truly remarkable. They are both good people from northern Shaanxi."

"Fujun, so you also agree with Runye taking Runsheng away?" At this time, Tian Futang on the side also realized what he meant. It turned out that his capable younger brother also agreed with Tian Runsheng's departure.

"I agree! Of course I agree." Tian Fujun nodded with a smile, then explained solemnly, "Brother, Runye, the opening of our country's market is an inevitable trend. Contact and exchanges between the mainland and Hong Kong will become more and more frequent. Naturally, we need good young people to go out and see the world, and then learn the technology and techniques we need."

"Second Dad, Shaoan actually told me the same thing. He also asked me to find some good projects in northern Shaanxi and help my fellow villagers get rich together."

"Oh? Shaoan really thinks so?" Tian Fujun heard that Tian Runye and Suning were going to take action in northern Shaanxi, and naturally showed a very interested expression.

"Yes! Second Dad, this is the plan that Ningyuan Group specially formulated according to the situation in northern Shaanxi. They want to build the catering company into a brand in our Shaanxi." Tian Runye then handed the company's project plan to Tian Fujun, and then smiled and explained to Tian Fujun in a concise manner.

"Oh? A catering company? This might be a bit troublesome in Xi'an!" After seeing the detailed plan of Ningyuan Group, Tian Fujun felt a little embarrassed.

"Second Dad, Shaoan also anticipated these problems, so he arranged to first target the overseas market and then the domestic market, and then sell our Shaanxi cuisine to the world. Shaoan often said that we must let wealthy foreigners eat expensive steamed buns."

"Haha, Shaoan's plan is very good. The plan is also very detailed. If it is implemented in this way, it will definitely be successful." At this time, Tian Fujun was also amused by Tian Runye's exaggerated tone. As a manager, he naturally knew a lot of things clearly, and he also believed that the powerful Ningyuan Group could do these things.

"Second Dad, it's great that you agree." Seeing Tian Fujun's appreciative and approving tone at this moment, Tian Runye couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised.

"Yes! Runye, I see that this plan also includes the idea of a food factory, so I suggest you go to Shanxi first to take a look. Their Shanxi aged vinegar is very famous."

"Second Dad is right! I also intend to visit Shaoan's second mother's in-laws' family in a few days. I heard that there are several vinegar-making experts in their Hejia Village. They can definitely create a seasoning brand based on Shanxi aged vinegar."

"Runye, it is said that one should look at a man with new eyes after three days of absence. I didn't expect that you have grown to this point today. It seems that we in northern Shaanxi really have to rely on you in the future." Hearing that Tian Runye had considered it in such detail, Tian Fujun couldn't help but be surprised.

"Second Dad, I have learned a lot in Hong Kong over the past few years. Shaoan introduced me to be the executive assistant to the president of Ningyuan Group at the beginning. After a few years of experience, I feel that I have become a much better person."

"Well, this is the meaning of going out and seeing the world. It is to learn the knowledge and skills we need. Otherwise, we will never be able to make progress."

"Second Dad, you are right. Shaoan and I will continue to work hard."

"Runye, I heard that Sun Shaoan has changed his name to Suning now?" Tian Fujun then looked at Tian Runye in confusion and asked, after all, he knew that the main character was still Suning.

"Yes! At first he was worried that it would affect his family, so he changed his name as soon as he arrived in Hong Kong." Tian Runye smiled and explained to Tian Fujun.

"Well, now it seems that Sun Shaoan's caution is a bit unnecessary. Our market will become more and more open in the future. You can let him invest in the mainland as much as he wants." In the past few years, as the days have become better and better, Tian Fujun's work in the unit has also been very smooth.

"Ok."
