Chapter 44; Parents Laid Off, Ye Feng Encourages Them to Start a Business
On the other side, when Ye Feng returned home, he once again saw the house filled with smoke. His mother, Liu Mei, was sitting at the dining table, wiping her tears. Ye Weimin was nearby, furrowing his eyebrow and smoking a cigarette.
Ye Feng was puzzled. It hadn't even been a day; everything was fine when he left in the morning. How did things turn out like this in the afternoon?
Mom, I'm back, Ye Feng greeted with a smile, trying to cheer up Liu Mei.
Seeing Ye Feng return, Liu Mei grabbed his collar, her eyes red, and asked, Xiaofeng, what outrageous things have you done at school?
Ye Feng looked bewildered. Mom, I behaved well at school. Today, the monthly exam results were released, and I ranked in the top ten in the class.
Let's not talk about that. Tell me, what did you do to that girl from the Yan family?
Huh?
Did Yan Huan complain about you? Ye Feng asked angrily.
Ye Weimin slapped the table, saying, Isnt it time to confess?
Ye Feng replied, ??? We just made a bet, and she lost. That's it.
A bet? What kind of bet? Ye Weimin asked.
Seeing this, Ye Feng had to explain the bet he made with Yan Huan. He didn't expect Yan Huan to be so unfair, losing the bet and still reporting it to her parents.
However, he quickly realized that it wasn't a simple matter of reporting to her parents.
After hearing the whole story, Ye Weimin and Liu Mei both sighed deeply.
Xiaofeng, you really didn't do anything else, and she didn't go running laps?
Ye Feng nodded.
Ye Weimin sighed lightly. Just twenty minutes ago, your mother was laid off from the factory.
Oh~! I thought it was something serious. It turns out she got laid off. It's been three months since that lousy food factory paid any wages. It's a good thing she got laid off early. This way, we can start our own business. Just in time, we can venture into entrepreneurship.
Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried about convincing Liu Mei, but he didn't expect that while he was still sleeping, someone would resolve it for him by laying off his mother.
This way, he saved himself a lot of trouble and could start a business with his mother directly.
Because he wanted to go to college, Ye Feng didn't have much time to focus on business matters. Now that both his parents were laid off, he could encourage them to start a business.
Ye Weimin raised his voice. You kid, you don't understand anything. Do you know how people will look at our family now that we're all unemployed?
Besides, youll be going to college in a few months. Dont you need money for college? Dont think that we have a little money now. We cant afford to send you to college.
Confidently, Ye Feng said, Mom, Dad, you dont have to worry about college expenses. Ill take care of my tuition and living expenses.
Go on, youre still young, but you talk big, Ye Weimin scoffed.
Ye Feng knew that talking to his dad about this at this moment would be fruitless. He had to wait until they actually started their business and achieved some results before telling them. That would be the right time.
Alright, focus on your studies for now. Dont worry about family matters.
Ye Feng hurriedly said, Dad, Mom, let me tell you something. I know a type of beverage thats really profitable, called milk tea. It has low production costs, and you can start with just ten to twenty thousand yuan.
Hehe, low production costs of ten to twenty thousand yuan can make a lot of money? It seems like milk tea shops are everywhere now, Ye Weimin said skeptically.
Thats because milk tea is originally from Taiwan and has already become popular in the eastern region. Zhongjiang is just a county-level city, so it hasnt arrived yet. Mom, Dad, this is the best time. Its just a small investment of ten to twenty thousand yuan. Why dont I try it first, and if it makes money, you can join later?
Ye Fengs words stirred up Ye Weimin and Liu Mei.
In any case, they had indeed been laid off, and without jobs, they had no source of income. Regardless of whether what Ye Feng said about making money was true or not, they needed to give it a try. They didnt aim for great wealth; having some income would suffice.
Seeing the old couple showing signs of interest, Ye Feng continued, Mom, Dad, money doesnt just fall from the sky when youre idle at home. But if we do something, we might really make some money.
Alright, since you have money saved up, let me and your mom give it a try.
Dad, youve finally come around. Mom, buy some equipment and supplies tomorrow. Ill tell you how to set it up in the evening, and the day after tomorrow, well go set up a stall to try it out.
Seeing Ye Feng so enthusiastic, Liu Mei also felt motivated. Alright! Lets give it a try.
At the Su family villa, Li Hongyang and Su Lin sat facing each other.
Su Lin, youve received the money, right?
Su Lin patted his head. I havent checked my phone yet.
Hmm, its a total of fifteen million, all transferred to your account. Check it when you have time.
Su Lin nodded. Brother Yang, hows my dad doing over in Donghai?
Li Hongyang thought Su Lin was missing his dad and said, He bought two plots of land and is busy with construction. You know, Su Shao, at this time, bosses are usually very busy, always at the construction site.
I know that. I was just asking. Brother Yang, are you going to Donghai tomorrow?
Yeah, there are still a lot of things waiting for me on the bosss side. I thought I was just helping out for a bit, but who knew it would turn into a whole week, Li Hongyang sighed.
Hehehe, I didnt expect the delivery to be so troublesome.
Those medicine suppliers were dragging their feet. Its only today that they finally sent the money.
Su Lin looked at Li Hongyang and extended one last invitation. Brother Yang, are you sure you wont stay and work for me? I feel like youre wasting your talents at my dads place.
Hehe, it still depends on the bosss approval.
Sigh, if I ask my dad for you, hell definitely agree, but thats not what I want. Su Lin sounded regretful.
Li Hongyangs ability to get things done was undeniable. Gathering over twenty tons of Tianma in a day wasnt something just anyone could achieve, and he managed to make a profit even with the low price Su Lin offered. It showed his capabilities.
Unfortunately, he was a person of Su Zhengguos, and Su Lin knew that if he asked his dad, Su Zhengguo would tell Li Hongyang about his activities. That would be pointless; Su Lin didnt want to do things when Su Zhengguo was fully aware of them.
After seeing off Li Hongyang, Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan were chatting on their phones.
Su Lin, where are you taking me this weekend?
Seeing Lin Xiaowans message, Su Lin knew that she was feeling anxious. He replied, Xiaowan, we agreed in advance that wherever I take you, you have to go.
But you have to give me some idea so I can prepare mentally.
Hehe, dont worry; I wont sell you. Youll find out when the time comes.
Che! All secretive, no fun at all.
Su Lin could imagine Lin Xiaowans cute yet slightly annoyed expression when she sent those messages.
