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

Chapter 71 Places in Adult High School

The guests enjoyed the meal very much.

Shen Qingqing also took the trouble to politely decline further thanks from Zheng's father and mother.

When leaving the restaurant after dinner, Father Zheng said to Shen Qingqing with a pleasant face: "Sister, if you want to buy a house in Guangcheng in the future, you can come to Uncle Zheng. Uncle Zheng will definitely give you a preferential price!"

Shen Qingqing blinked, "Uncle Zheng, are you in real estate?"

Father Zheng was stunned and replied, "Yeah, what's the matter? Meizi's family wants to buy a house in Guangcheng?"

Shen Qingqing shook her head honestly: "I don't have such plans yet, but I will definitely do it if there is a chance in the future!"

Seeing this, Zheng's father smiled and said, "If you want to buy a house, buy it as soon as possible. The housing market waits for no one!"

"Yes! Uncle Zheng! I'll be grateful for your help when the time comes!" Shen Qingqing raised the note in her hand and shook it towards Zheng's father.

"Hahaha, no problem, no problem!" Zheng's father was amused by the way Shen Qingqing spoke seriously like an adult.

After watching the three members of the Zheng family leave, Shen Qingqing followed the teachers back to the hotel.

Shen Qingqing was indeed surprised that the Zheng family was actually a real estate developer.

Although they don’t have enough money to buy a house now, who can say how long it will take for them to be able to afford one?
Especially the Hengjia Real Estate bankruptcy incident in later generations. Many people who bought their buildings lost their money and houses, and even had to take out bank loans.

In the future, my uncle’s company and my mother’s brand will certainly not be limited to Chaocheng. Even Uncle Jingyuan’s clothing company will definitely develop in better cities.

In order to transfer, the first thing is to have land.

If they can get it at a cheaper price, it will definitely be a big advantage for them in terms of competitive prices.

After all, in later generations, it was not uncommon for commodity prices to be raised again and again because rents were too high, and eventually became the last straw that broke the camel's back for shops and companies.

After Shen Qingqing returned to the hotel, she folded the piece of paper with the phone number written on it and put it in the compartment of her pencil case.

The three or four-month-long competition was finally over. Shen Qingqing had nothing else to worry about, so she fell into a deep sleep as soon as she got home.

Li Xunli finally completed Zhang Hengyun's order and can spend the New Year more relaxedly.

In Li Xunjin's Spring Festival gift boxes, each one also comes with a jade Ruyi knot as a match. It doesn't matter how many pendants you make, right?
What's more, although Li Xunjin has gift box orders from several companies, each of which costs about a hundred, not every company needs a porcelain pendant with a jade texture.

The quantity required was not large, so Li Xunli found time to finish it and handed it to Li Xunjin two days before he shipped it out.

It was Chen Manyu who gave Li Xunli a big surprise.

Chen Manyu is not interested in some small and medium-sized porcelains, but he is very talented in making tea sets. Although he only makes rough clay and simply fires them, the finished products have a unique beauty.

Li Xunli began to teach him something deeper.

But she also thought it through and decided to find a suitable master to guide Chen Manyu. With such talent, there was no need to waste it with her.

However, the great tea set and porcelain masters in Chaocheng all attach great importance to their own inheritance. It is not easy to find a master who is willing to teach Chen Manyu sincerely.

Li Xunli watched the sky gradually darken. The porcelain kiln was freezing even when it wasn't firing. She looked at Chen Manyu, who was still pounding the ingredients, and said, "Manu, go home. You don't need to come pounding ingredients every day anymore. Auntie finished her work here before the New Year!"

Chen Manyu heard the voice and shifted his gaze from the small card book spread out on the bench next to him to look at Li Xunli: "Pound the materials well, it will be convenient later!"

After saying that, he didn't care what Li Xunli said anymore and buried his head in pounding, his hands and feet moving non-stop. The loud noise of smashing the material did not affect his silent recitation of the words on the card book.

Unable to persuade him, Li Xunli could only let him go.

As the year draws to a close, Zhang Zeqin's company is in a hurry to ship out several batches of goods so as not to affect the New Year holiday. Therefore, Shen Rongzhou increased the number of trips from two a day to three a day. Basically, when he returns, it is one or two o'clock in the morning.

But tonight I got home before eleven o'clock.

Shen Qingqing, who hadn't slept yet, quickly brought him the chicken soup that had been kept warm in the rice cooker.

After washing his face and hands, Shen Rongzhou shared some new news while drinking some chicken soup: "Mr. Zhang told us that he has three places for adult high school. If any of us want to continue our studies, we can go to him to register after the New Year. He will help us arrange it, but we will have to pay the tuition ourselves."

Shen Qingqing was originally lying on the dining table, but upon hearing this, she immediately stood up and said to her father, "Then Dad, go sign up!"

Shen Rongzhou glanced at her and continued, "But it's a private school. The tuition for one semester is twelve thousand, not including the cost of textbooks."

But the good thing is that students can arrange their class time according to their own schedule, and as long as they can pass the final exam, they can get a diploma.

But there is also a problem. This private school charges according to the semester. If you have not finished your studies, you have to continue studying until you pass the exam and get your diploma. This fee must be paid until you get your diploma.

Moreover, Shen Rongzhou said that when he was in junior high school, there was no such thing as English in the middle school in his hometown.

In other words, if he goes to adult high school, he will not only have to regain knowledge of basic subjects such as Chinese and mathematics, but also have to learn a completely new language.

When the tuition fee issue arose, Shen Rongzhou and Li Xunli both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

They also know that as they develop further, academic qualifications will become more and more important, and their compulsory education qualifications will definitely not be enough.

But the tuition fee issue is really a big problem. Just to pay all the tuition fees for Shen Rongzhou, he has to spend half of his monthly salary, and he can't even guarantee Shen Rongzhou's learning progress.

"Dad, sign up! I have money! I will pay your tuition!" Shen Qingqing said firmly.

“Where are you…”

Shen Rongzhou and Li Xunli looked at Shen Qingqing in surprise. Li Xunli was about to ask where she got the money, but then she remembered what Li Xunjin had told them before, that his daughter had made a lot of money by buying stocks with him.

However, as parents, they also have parental self-esteem, and they don't want to touch a seven-year-old child's money unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Dad, not only will I give you money, but I'll also start learning English when I skip to third grade. The teacher asked a senior to lend me books from higher grades so I can familiarize myself with them first. Then I can teach you!"

Shen Qingqing said so, Li Xunli gritted her teeth and said, "Qingqing, you don't have to pay, Rongzhou, you can go to study! Since Mr. Zhang said this to you, he must hope that you can all improve your academic qualifications."

"With a higher level of education, he might even value those with higher education. We've already made a bet once, from the garment factory to Mr. Zhang's company. Now it's proven that our bet was right. Now we're making a second bet. The worst-case scenario is that you can't finish your studies, but you still have a job, so you haven't lost anything!"
