Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

Chapter 1143 The Subtle Thoughts Between Sisters-in-Law

Hong Xin and Wen Huixin flew back to Beiping the very next day without stopping.

Upon returning to the Zhao family's old residence, Hong Xin first visited several of her mothers.

"Auntie, I came back this time because I heard that the family clothing business is not being managed, and my sisters-in-law want me to come back and take over!" Hong Xin said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Hasn't Jingping always been in charge of the clothing business?" Tian Dan asked, frowning, after hearing Hong Xin's words.

"Second Aunt, didn't Jingping's family just open a new clothing factory? They wanted Jingping to go back and help out, so they brought Hongxin back. After all, she studied at Daisy's company for so long, managing a small shopping mall is a piece of cake for her!" Xiao Suizi quickly said.

"Let Hong Xin manage it? Then what are you going to do?" Pingping asked Xiao Suizi curiously.

"Oh dear, my novel has been published, right? There are so many book signings and stuff! I'm too busy to handle them all!" Xiao Suizi quickly said.

"Your novel has been published?" Ye Juan asked, somewhat surprised.

In this room, Ye Juan was the only college student, so they valued Xiao Suizi, who could write novels, highly. They were very happy to hear that her novel had been published.

"Yes, Third Aunt, it has indeed been published, and the sales are not bad, so I'm going to go and do some promotions!" Xiao Suizi said with a glint in her eyes.

Actually, her novels didn't sell very well. It's just that she's not cut out for business. Usually, with Xu Jingping around, she was in charge of everything. Now that Xu Jingping is gone, asking her to manage the company is really putting Xiao Suizi in a difficult position.

So she used the excuse of her novel to go out for a stroll. She had it all planned out: first she would go to see Hao Shuwen, then she would go to see Zhuoma. Taking a stroll was much better than managing a company at home.

Hearing Xiao Suizi's words, Ye Juan didn't say anything. Pingping and Xiuzhi didn't understand, so they just let her be.

But who is Tian Dan? Could Xiao Suizi's cunning really fool her?

However, Tian Dan didn't say anything. After all, only the fourth son's wife was usually at home, taking care of the children and cooking, which was quite tiring. Since she wanted to go out and have fun, she let her go.

"How about this, fourth brother's wife, why don't you take Hong Xin and He Qing for a stroll?" Tian Dan said after thinking for a moment.

"Huh?" Xiao Suizi and Hong Xin looked at Tian Dan in surprise.

"What do you mean 'oh'? He Qing is in Beiping negotiating some kind of investment. Why don't you take the two of them on a trip? I'll pay for it!" Tian Dan said.

"Really? Second Aunt, you keep your word!" Xiao Suizi stood up happily, ran to sit down next to Tian Dan, and hugged Tian Dan's arm.

"Really, would I lie to you!" Tian Dan said irritably.

"We didn't hold a wedding for He Qing and Hong Xin because we wanted to be mindful of appearances, so this is just compensation for them!" Tian Dan said with a smile.

“That’s true, He Qing and Hong Xin didn’t have a wedding! They really should make it up to them,” Pingping chimed in.

"Thank you, Mom!" Xiao Suizi said happily.

Listening to their conversation, Hong Xin felt a little lost. After all, she had only been in the family for a short time and hadn't spent much time with her mothers-in-law, so she was still somewhat reserved.

"Ye Fei is on vacation right now, should we bring her along?" Xiao Suizi suddenly thought.

"Ting, you're enough. If you take Ye Fei away, Lao Liu will be running home all the time again, and I'll have to cook for him!" Pingping quickly stopped her.

Xiao Suizi stuck out her tongue. She couldn't help Wei Ping and Ye Fei, who often came home for meals.

"Xin Xin, tomorrow I'll take you to the company to familiarize yourself with it, and let Miss Wen help you tidy up the place first! When we get back, you can take over the company!" Xiao Suizi said with a smile, pulling Hong Xin out of the house.

"That fourth son's wife certainly knows how to avoid trouble!" Pingping said helplessly.

"Alright, don't worry about it. Actually, that company is just so-so. All they do every day is collect money. The manager they hired is quite capable. It doesn't matter whether family members are watching over them or not. It's just that having someone watching over them can prevent the subordinates from taking advantage of loopholes!" Tian Dan said.

Xiao Suizi led Hong Xin out of the old house and got into a car heading towards the clothing wholesale market in Haidian.

“Xin Xin, don’t be so nervous. Although the company looks big, in reality, apart from a few stalls that we own, the rest of the stalls in our market are rented out. You’ll have a pretty easy job every month, just collecting rent, handling some urgent matters, and checking the accounts.” Xiao Suizi explained to Hong Xin while driving.

It took half an hour of driving before we finally saw the clothing market. The entire wholesale market was incredibly busy, packed with people.

The most customers come from the Northwest, since Wang Nana's clothing business can only expand to a few cities near Shihezi, and the vast remaining area is mainly for these individual wholesalers.

The crowds here are enormous, and dialects from all over the country converge here. It sounds incredibly noisy.

Xiao Suizi led Hong Xin and Wen Huixin to start shopping in the mall.

"Xin Xin, this row of stalls is ours, mainly selling seasonal clothing!" Xiao Suizi led Hong Xin to a row of stalls and gestured as she spoke.

Hong Xin looked at the four stalls in a row, which were in the best location in the entire mall.

"Fourth Sister-in-law, do we manage everything here directly?" Hong Xin asked curiously.

"No, we have many departments in the mall. The daily turnover here is reported to the mall's finance department. You just need to check what's different each day!" Xiao Suizi said.

“There’s only one shopping mall like this in Beiping right now, so business is booming. You could say it’s a unique business!” Xiao Suizi said.

"Ms. Xiao, this shopping mall is only part of the company, right? I heard that the company has quite a few stores in Beiping?" Wen Huixin asked curiously.

“That’s right. We still have about 42 retail stores in Beiping. We need to check on them every now and then,” Xiao Suizi said.

Actually, the biggest trouble for the whole company is inspecting the stores, because the stores are all over Beijing, and it takes a week just to inspect them, which is a real headache.

It was fine when they were all together before, as they would patrol separately. But now that they're all busy, some are with their husbands in the military, others are with their families, so there are fewer people, which has naturally become a hassle.

"So many stores? Fourth Sister-in-law, how can one person manage all of this?" Hong Xin felt a little dizzy upon hearing this.

"Oh, it's alright, there are other people to help you. I'll come from Beiping too! It's all our business, what are you afraid of!" Xiao Suizi said with a smile.
