“I’m not saying that there is anything wrong with the Xia family or blaming any of the family members. 1 just want to be even more independent. I can’t rely on the Xia family all my life. The Xia family can help me with all these small matters now, but if I encounter problems that even the Xia family can’t solve in the future, then what should I do? It’s better to rely on myself than on others. I want to put in enough effort too,” Qiao Mei explained.

Xia Wen had been taught to protect women since he was young and that men should be the ones to handle matters outside the house. It was a good thing that Qiao Mei wanted all this, but he always found her to be a little strange. The men should be the ones working hard to protect their families. Why would they need the women to work hard to protect them?

“Sigh… You can do whatever you want,” Xia Wen waved his hand and said helplessly.

Qiao Mei immediately said, “Of course I’ll always need Eldest Brother’s help! I’ll be careful. If there’s really something that I can’t handle, I’ll definitely come and look for you!’

“You’d better remember what you just said! When Xia Zhe comes back, I’m going to tell him all these things and ask him to teach you a lesson!” Xia Wen said.

He would leave it to her husband to deal with her. MO Zhu was getting bigger by the day and he needed to stay by her side,

The Huang family’s case was closed by the police after the investigation yielded no results. The Huang family were now thinking of ways to get rid of the scrap metal in their factory. Qiao Mei asked Lu Huai to find two unfamiliar faces to go to Lian City to negotiate a deal with the Huang family. Within two to three days, they managed to buy all the broken machines for only 30,000 dollars! They had spent 20,000 dollars less than what Qiao Mei had estimated!

“How did they do it? Why is the Huang family willing to sell everything at such a low price?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“If they sell the scrap metal by weight, it won’t cost us anything more than

20,000 dollars. We’re making a loss here!” Lu Huai said with some heartache.

“It’s fine! Quickly send these things to Shen City. My staff will meet you there. Make sure to send those spare parts in my courtyard over in batches. Don’t send them in one go since that will attract attention,” Qiao Mei instructed.

“No problem! Leave this to me!” Lu Huai said.

Xiang Chen and Wu Duo had gone to Shen City together. It was near the sea, so there was a port which facilitated trading. Furthermore, the city’s economy was only starting to take off and it was not as prosperous as Hu City and the capital yet, so they had a lot of leeway in doing business.

They had headed for this city based on Qiao Mei’s suggestion. Qiao Mei had written to Xiang Chen earlier and recommended five cities to him. These five cities were the ones which would become key economic centers of the country in the future. Even then, the five cities ended up with varying degrees of economic success. This was also Qiao Mei’s way of testing Xiang Chen, to see if he had the aptitude for business.

She left the rest of the work to her staff and only needed to wait for the results. If she still had to handle everything herself, then she should not be a boss anymore.

Previously, when she graduated from Capital University, she had told everyone that she wanted to set up a biological company. It was now time to think about how to put this plan in motion. The name of this company must be completely different from the name of the factory.

After thinking about it for a long time, Qiao Mei decided on a simple approach. She would just name it “Qiao Biological Company”. The world was her oyster, but at this stage, she just wanted to focus on doing research on seeds.

The process of setting up a company was very cumbersome and would take at least one month. Qiao Mei left all these troublesome matters to Qian’e. She was not in a hurry anyway.

“Grandfather, are you making good use of the warehouse by the river?” Qiao Mei asked.

“We’ve been using it to plant crops. Your mother says that that piece of land is truly a treasure. If we don’t plant crops there, the nutrients in the land will eventually be lost. Even when you are away. we must make good use of it.

After all, that piece of land can generate money!” Qiao Qiang said with a laugh.

Qiao Mei was very happy. She had thought that while she was in school, Li Gui did nothing other than counted money every day. However, it seemed that Li Gui was developing good business acumen during this period.

“Have you planted anything this year?” Qiao Mei asked.

“We just harvested a batch of watermelons. The field is empty now and I haven’t thought about what to grow next,” Qiao Qiang said.

“That’s good! I want to try planting some new seeds! Let’s set off now and take a look over there!” After saying that, Qiao Mei started to pack her things. Qiao Qiang also informed Li Gui about their plan..
