Chapter 172 My Mom Transformed into a Real Rich Man After Her Divorce in the 9s (Part 11)
"What about people?"
Wang Fangzhi looked anxiously into the room, but no matter how hard he looked, it was still empty; there was nothing there at all.
The things are gone, and so are the people.
"Lu Huailiang, you bastard, get out here! That's all my hard-earned money!"
Wang Fangzhi collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down his face.
That's eight thousand yuan!
“Young man, crying here won’t do any good. They’ve already left. If you had come a week earlier, you might have been able to find them, but now, it’s hopeless.”
An old woman couldn't help but sigh when she saw Wang Fangzhi crying so bitterly.
"What? It's been more than a week? Sigh, it's all my mom's fault. Why did she have to get sick now of all times?"
Seeing Wang Fangzhi constantly complaining, the old lady walked away with a gloomy face. What kind of good person is someone who only knows how to blame his mother when things go wrong?
Meanwhile, Wang Qianmo's studies were also progressing well. She joined the professor's team in her first year of university, where the team was mainly responsible for the application and research of materials science.
Si Yan's preparations are almost complete.
"Boss, we've already put out the ads for our garment factory and spent a lot of money on advertising, but we haven't received many orders lately."
"I'm embarrassed," said Xiao Zeng, the main force of Si Yan from Momo Clothing Factory.
Xiao Zeng was also puzzled. His factory had produced so many red sweaters, and after several months, most of them were still piling up in the warehouse. If they still couldn't be sold by next year, then...
“Great. Tell the purchasing department to order another batch of denim fabric so we can make another batch of jeans. This time, we’ll make wide-leg jeans.”
Si Yan's words brought Xiao Zeng back to his senses.
"Okay, boss, I'll pass the word down right away."
As he spoke, Zeng tried to leave.
"Wait, take this to the design department and have them make the pattern in the next few days. I want to send a few to someone first."
Si Yan handed a piece of drawing paper out of her bag. With just a few strokes, the outline of wide-leg jeans was already vividly depicted on the paper.
Xiao Zeng looked surprised as she picked up the drawing paper. Her boss wasn't the foolish rich person they said he was. Just by looking at the drawing, she knew her boss's aesthetic sense was quite good.
Who knows, maybe the clothes from my own clothing factory will actually become popular.
"Okay, boss, don't worry, I'll arrange it properly."
Zeng readily agreed, holding the drawing paper.
After arranging the jeans, Si Yan went to Manager Li in the purchasing department to ask him to buy a batch of custom-made belts.
After all, what could be more appealing in this day and age than getting a belt as a free gift with the purchase of clothes?
"Xiao Li, do you have the contact information for a belt supplier?"
When Manager Li from the purchasing department saw Si Yan arrive, he quickly got up from his seat and came over.
"Boss, why are you asking about this? But if it's a belt, I do know a suitable one here. My previous company worked with them, and their quality and reputation were quite good."
Manager Li replied with a smile.
"Okay, you can contact them here. There are no requirements for the leather, but please make the belt buckle according to the one on this piece of paper."
Upon hearing this, Manager Li quickly took it.
"Hmm, it does look quite like a mathematical symbol, no, it also looks quite like an hourglass, except that the two sides are round."
"How was it? Was it difficult?"
Si Yan asked softly.
“It’s not difficult, it’s simple, they can do it.”
Manager Li replied immediately.
"Okay, then Xiao Li, I'll leave everything to you. As for the quantity, just customize it according to our jeans production plan."
Speaking of this, Si Yan remembered that she had entrusted Xiao Zeng with the task of placing the order for the jeans.
Seeing Manager Li's bewildered expression, Si Yan continued.
"I've given the jeans to Zeng to take to the drop-off point. I estimate it will take a while for the order to reach you. When it does, you can order the belts according to the number of jeans."
"Sure, I'll have them send over a sample first, and then I'll confirm it for you. Is that alright?"
After nodding, Xiao Li asked for instructions again.
"Just arrange it."
After making the arrangements, Si Yan left the company. She had been busy with work lately and hadn't seen Qian Mo for several days.
Today happens to be the day she returns to the Si family's old residence.
As soon as Si Yan arrived at the old house, she saw Qian Mo laughing so hard she could hardly breathe, looking very happy.
Si Yan raised the corners of her mouth and followed.
"Qianmo, what's so funny? You're laughing so hard you can barely breathe."
Si Yan asked with a slight smile.
"Mom, I'm listening to Grandpa tell embarrassing stories from his childhood. He said he even had a face-to-face conversation with bandits when he was a kid."
Wang Qianmo said with a light laugh.
"Oh, what's going on? I'd like to hear about it too."
Si Yan sat down curiously as well.
“My maternal grandfather said that when he was about thirteen years old, a group of bandits entered the village. Everyone ran away, but he was unable to run because of a leg injury, so he was conscripted by the bandits.”
Wang Qianmo paused for a moment at this point, and seeing that Si Yan had become interested, she continued.
"Later, the bandit asked my grandfather: 'Kid, do you know whose family has the most grain?'"
"Mom, guess what Grandpa did?"
Wang Qianmo asked playfully.
"How to do it?"
Si Yan also chuckled and played along, genuinely happy to see Wang Qianmo so vibrant.
“My grandfather pointed to the landlord’s house where the people were oppressed and said: ‘That’s it.’”
"My grandfather also took advantage of the chaos to carry some grain to the homes of the poorest families in the village. Later, the bandits ate their fill and even gave my grandfather a chicken as a reward when they left."
Wang Qianmo became more and more excited as she spoke, as if she had experienced it herself.
In the end, she even pulled Si Yan aside and said something.
"Mom, don't you think Grandpa's experiences are interesting? And it's really not easy for Grandpa to have survived in such an environment."
Through this period of time, Wang Qianmo gradually developed a sense of kinship with the old man in front of her.
Seeing Wang Qianmo so happy, Si Yan couldn't help but smile happily as well. It seemed that coming to stay at the Si family's house was the right move.
Si Yan was unaware that after Wang Fangzhi was scammed in his investment, he now regarded Wang Qianmo as his lifeline, since in his mind, taking a bride price to marry off his daughter was not illegal.
