Rebirth of the Millennial: Getting Rich After Parents Get Laid Off

Chapter 13 Uncle Wants to Transform the Company
As soon as Shen Qingqing asked this question, the three adults in the family all looked at her.

Shen Qingqing blinked and calmly told the adults at home what Chen Man had said to her, especially Li Xunli who was sitting next to her.

"Manman said that her father didn't agree to it directly with Mom, and he also told the boss that they could only discuss it if Mom agreed."

"Besides, they're Christmas gifts, and there are only five sets. It's only September 10th, so there are still more than two months to prepare until December!"

Shen Qingqing stuck close to Li Xunli, tilted her head back and asked eagerly, "Mom, will you agree? There's money to be made! I want to buy a nice little dress for the New Year~ If I go to Manman's house to pay New Year's greetings, I must wear something nice~"

Li Xunli wanted to refuse, but when she heard Shen Qingqing say that she wanted to go to Chen Man's house to pay New Year's greetings, she hesitated again.

If I go to Chen Man's house, I'll probably be paying New Year's greetings to Shen Rongzhou's boss, and Shen Rongzhou can't dress too poorly...

When Shen Qingqing saw her mother hesitate, she immediately pressed the issue: "Mom, just treat this as a practice session to get back to your old feel!"

"You don't want to work at Uncle Zhang's ceramics factory because you feel you've lost your touch after working with porcelain for so long. Now's a good time to get back on track!"

"This way, we can still cooperate with Uncle Zhang in the future! Mom will be responsible for firing the porcelain to make gifts, and Uncle will be responsible for decorating the gifts and making them into gift boxes to sell. Is there anything Uncle can't do?"

"What about Christmas gift boxes, New Year's Day gift boxes, Spring Festival gift boxes, Lantern Festival gift boxes, Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day and anniversary gift boxes? There are so many festivals to send gift boxes!"

The three adults, who originally thought Shen Qingqing was just a child who wanted them to make more money to buy her clothes, became more surprised the more they listened to Shen Qingqing's words.

Especially Li Xunjin, who already runs his own company, his eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened to Shen Qingqing's words.

When his company first opened, it did make quite a bit of money. However, as the country's economy improved in the new millennium, and Beijing successfully bid for the Olympic Games in 01 and joined the WTO, all sorts of small companies and self-employed individuals sprang up, diversifying the original customer base. Now, simply maintaining a balance between income and expenditure is already a very good situation.

Recently, several of his former regular customers have told him openly or covertly that they probably don't plan to continue cooperating with him after this order is completed.

Li Xunjin understood that his company was going through a bottleneck period, but he did not dare to tell his family for fear of causing them to worry as well.

However, what Shen Qingqing said today made him see a new possibility - transformation.

His original clients have been more or less dispersed by his peers, and it is difficult for him to compete with them now. However, what if he opens up new directions for cooperation?

Human relations, these four words are very important in this land.

When you have interactions with others, you can't avoid bringing some gifts.

The more Li Xunjin thought about it, the clearer the transformation plan became in his mind.

Li Xunli didn't quite understand what Shen Qingqing said. She thought what she said was ridiculous and poked her on the forehead. "You just talk nonsense! Do you think doing business is as easy as doing homework? You're just talking nonsense!"

"Qingqing is really not talking nonsense this time." Li Xunjin took over the conversation and raised his hand to touch Shen Qingqing's head. "What Qingqing said can indeed be done."

"Brother?" Li Xunli and Shen Rongzhou looked at Li Xunjin in surprise.

Li Xunjin smiled gently, "But these things still need to be considered in the long run. As for the five sets of porcelain that Qingqing mentioned, sister, if you really want to continue making ceramics, then do it. I'll cover the cost for you."

Li Xunli was silent as last time, but her eyes were flashing.

She had already taken the initiative to step out and explore the world outside her comfort zone. Even though the job in Shancheng fell through, it had planted a seed of courage in her heart. This time, this seed encountered the sweet rain of "ceramics", and it seemed to be eager to break through the ground.

Shen Qingqing noticed her mother's hesitation and immediately struck while the iron was hot: "Mom! You didn't go to Chen Man's house with us, so you don't know that when Uncle Zhang saw the set of porcelain figurines you made, his eyes were almost glued to them! He kept asking if you would like to work in his porcelain factory!"

"Uncle Zhang is a wealthy man, and he admires your craftsmanship so much. It proves that you, Mom, have the talent!"

"Besides, the old house is close to home. When I learn to ride a bike, I can cook at home and bring it to you. If you need to come back for something, it will be very convenient to ride a bike!"

"Besides, I'm just going to give it a try. I'm just going to find some time to talk to the boss. I didn't say that just talking means I'm going to take the job, right, uncle?"

Shen Qingqing finished her words and turned to look for Li Xunjin to be her ally.

Li Xunjin did not let Shen Qingqing down, "Yes, just go and have a chat. What to do next is up to you. Look, Qingqing, Rongzhou, and brother all support you."

The reason why Li Xunjin was not in a hurry to persuade Li Xunli to agree was that his own company's transformation had not been planned yet. It was still just an idea and he didn't know whether it could be implemented.

"Okay, then let's meet and chat first." Li Xunli nodded.

"Okay!" Shen Qingqing cheered and raised her hands. "Then I'll tell Manman tomorrow! I'll tell it! And Dad can't tell Uncle Zhang secretly!"

"Okay, you just say it." Li Xunli and Shen Rongzhou said in unison with a smile.

Perhaps the laughter in the living room was too loud, and Shen Hong, who was sleeping in the master bedroom, was woken up, and loud crying was heard.

Li Xunli was about to go and coax her when Shen Rongzhou pulled her over and asked her to take a shower first while he would coax her.

The couple walked into the master bedroom together, leaving Shen Qingqing in the living room with Li Xunjin.

Shen Qingqing immediately turned around and lay on Li Xunjin's knees, mysteriously taking out another five hundred yuan from her pocket: "Uncle, I want to buy some more stocks, or the two I bought before..."

The living room was not far from the master bedroom, so Shen Qingqing didn't dare to speak too loudly.

Li Xunjin has been very busy these days and actually forgot about buying stocks that day. Now, when Shen Qingqing suddenly asked him to buy stocks, he finally remembered it.

He looked at Shen Qingqing with amusement, "Why do you want to buy it again? You don't even know whether you've made a profit or a loss."

Shen Qingqing raised her head proudly. "I know, I made money. I saw the newspaper today. The number given in the newspaper is different from the number when I bought it that day. It's bigger than the number I bought it at that time!"

"But there aren't many big ones. I want to buy some more so that next time I see one, it might be much bigger!"

Shen Qingqing spoke stealthily, but Li Xunjin was surprised by the word "earned money" she said.

He pushed Shen Qingqing's money back and said, "Wait for your uncle to come home and take a look. If you really make money, your uncle will buy it for you."

Without saying anything, Shen Qingqing stuffed the money into Li Xunjin's pocket, then stood up and waved at him: "Goodbye, uncle! Go back quickly!"
