Chapter 678: Nurturing!

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

On the highway from Suzhou to Kunshan, Yang Yu was driving while listening to his wife’s nagging.

“What can I say to you? You’ve missed such a good opportunity. It serves you right if you never get rich in this lifetime.”

“Just because you’re his cousin, as long as you speak up, he’ll definitely lend you a hand!”

“Our factory’s business isn’t doing well right now. Tongtong is about to start primary school, and relying solely on us, who knows when we’ll be able to buy a house. You don’t want to keep renting forever, do you?”

“I don’t know what’s going through your pig brain. How did I end up with such a useless wimp like you!”

Yang Yu, who had been silent all along, involuntarily tightened his grip on the steering wheel.

Indeed, as his wife said, if he really spoke up, the days ahead might be much better. But he couldn’t bring himself to say it, perhaps his male pride was getting in the way.

Listening to his wife’s incessant nagging in his ear, Yang Yu glanced at the service area not far ahead and drove straight in.

After parking the car, ignoring the surprised look in his wife’s eyes, he opened the car door and got out.

Taking out a cigarette from his pocket and lighting it up, he squatted on the roadside curb, smoking by himself.

Soon, there were two or three cigarette butts on the ground. Yang Yu’s eyes even became slightly red, perhaps from smoking too much.

“Have some water. I was too impatient earlier, and what I said was a bit too much. I hope you won’t take it to heart.” At some point, his wife was already squatting beside him, holding a bottle of mineral water.

Yang Yu tossed the cigarette butt away, took the water from his wife’s hand, and laughed, “It’s nothing. I just had a craving for a smoke while driving. Don’t overthink it!”

Seeing Yang Yu’s forced smile and those reddened eyes, she also felt uneasy. “Yeah!”

Drinking half a bottle of mineral water in one gulp, Yang Yu stood up, smiling as he extended his right hand to his wife. “Let’s go, dear, let’s go home!”

“Yeah, let’s go home!” His wife nodded with a smile, grasping his right hand for support as she stood up.

Soon, the car was back on the road, but it seemed much lighter than before.

At the same time, Zhou Chao and Lin Wu were also on their way back to Modu.

Zhou Chao was listening to Xiao Guo’s report on the situation at Yang Yu’s factory.

“Brother Chao, according to my investigation, there are only six workers in the factory, including Yang Yu and his wife. They haven’t started working for almost half a month now.”

As soon as he heard that they hadn’t been working for almost half a month, Zhou Chao’s brows furrowed. He knew that for this type of small workshop-style factory, without business, it meant losses.

“What’s the main issue? Is it a problem with the quality or something else?”

“Well, according to the data, the quality of this factory is quite good. Compared to the entire area, the main problem is the intense competition in the surrounding area, which has squeezed profits too thin!”

After speaking, Xiao Guo pulled up a table showing the profits and workmanship of all the mold factories in the area.

Zhou Chao looked at the table on his phone, carefully examining it for a moment. Indeed, it was as Xiao Guo had said.

“I got it. You go rest first,” Zhou Chao said before closing his eyes to rest.

Xiao Guo pouted as she glanced at Zhou Chao on the screen, then unhappily shut off her phone.

Lin Wu, driving the car, also caught Zhou Chao’s conversation in his ears. He glanced at Zhou Chao through the rearview mirror, knowing that the boss was figuring out how to help his third brother.

“Lin Wu, does the group have companies with such needs?” Zhou Chao suddenly opened his eyes and asked Lin Wu comprehensively.

“Boss, I’m not sure. After all, there are too many companies under the group. Maybe you can ask Xiao Guo; she should know,” Lin Wu replied.

“I know,” Xiao Guo chimed in from the phone.

Zhou Chao smiled and looked at the phone beside him. “Xiao Guo, tell me!”

Instantly, Xiao Guo on the screen changed into a suit, looking very formal. “Ahem, there are 8 companies under the group that have demand for molds, and the demand is quite large. Any one of them can meet your needs!”

“But…” Xiao Guo paused, not continuing.

“But what? Just say it all at once!” Zhou Chao looked at Xiao Guo somewhat speechlessly.

Even Lin Wu, driving the car, occasionally glanced back.

After all, it’s annoying when someone stops halfway through speaking.

“But with the capacity of your third brother’s factory, even the smallest order would take almost half a year to complete. It can’t fully meet the company’s demand. They wouldn’t shut down the company and wait for him to finish, right?”

When Xiao Guo finished speaking, Zhou Chao burst into laughter. It seemed that Xiao Guo still needed to learn more to avoid situations like this in the future.

“Why are you laughing, Brother Chao? Did I say something wrong?” Xiao Guo looked at Zhou Chao with those puzzled big eyes.

“It’s not that you’re wrong, it’s just that you didn’t consider splitting the order into a quantity that my third brother can complete in a month. As long as there’s a monthly order volume, the benefits will naturally come!”

“Oh, I see!” Xiao Guo suddenly looked enlightened.

After all, Xiao Guo had only been created for a short time, and Zhou Chao had imposed some restrictions on it, limiting its ability to learn freely, especially browsing information online.
