Chapter VII School Examinations
Fang City?
Isn't it a place to sell things?
What else can you think of that kind of place?
Xiao Li and Xiao Yan didn't understand what Xiao Zhan meant for a while, they were a little dazed, but Xiao Ding, because he was the oldest, coupled with a stable personality, and smart and wise, he immediately tasted some unusual meanings from his father's words.
He frowned, then his brows stretched again, and he asked Xiao Zhan, "Father, is there something wrong in Fang City?" ”
Xiao Li and Xiao Yan also looked at Xiao Zhan one after another.
Xiao Zhan picked up the teacup, took a light sip of tea, and then said leisurely: "It can be said that it is a problem, or it can be said that it is not a problem, it is just an old and stubborn disease." ”
"It's nothing more than my Xiao family's shop, under the joint suppression of the Galie family and the Oba family, the business is sluggish."
Although Xiao Zhan said it so lightly, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li could feel a trace of his father's anger from it, the Galie family and the Oba family, since the Xiao family came to this Utan City, these two families have always regarded the Xiao family as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh, and suppressed the Xiao family in every way, which is really the enemy of the Xiao family.
Xiao Li also understood why his father suddenly mentioned Fang City, and even thought about it a little more, thinking of some places that Xiao Zhan himself hadn't thought of.
"Is this our father's test for us?" Xiao Li asked Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan was stunned for a moment, then decisively took over the conversation and continued, "Yes, this is indeed a test for you. ”
In a split second, he came up with a set of rhetoric.
"The three of you are my Xiao Zhan's son, the descendant of the Xiao family, my Xiao Zhan is the patriarch of the Xiao family, no accident, the patriarch of the Xiao family in the future will be born from the three of you. Although the business of Fang Market is controlled by the three elders, I am the one who coordinates everything after all...... If any of you inherit the position of patriarch in the future, it is naturally impossible not to understand the many businesses of my Xiao family. ”
"Now, just to let you know in advance."
"Of course, if you are not interested in managing the family, I have nothing to say about the future patriarch position passed on to the three elders, I can only say that my son Xiao Zhan is inferior to others."
Whether to inherit the position of the head of the family in the future, Xiao Ding, Xiao Li and others have not yet thought about it, but the last half of their father's words aroused their competitiveness.
What do you mean they are inferior to others?
Xiao Li immediately asked Xiao Zhan, "Father, what do you want to test us?" ”
Poor business of shops in Fang City? Could it be that my father wanted them to find a way to turn the business around?
Xiao Zhan opened his mouth, and what he said was indeed related to the reversal of the business in Fang City, but it was slightly different.
"I already have some ideas on how to improve the business of the Fang City store, in the final analysis, it is because the products of our Xiao family store overlap too much with the other two, so if we want to improve the business, the best way is naturally that I have you and find a batch of special products that belong to our Xiao family."
"What a plan!"
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were still digesting Xiao Zhan's words, and after touching the fish on the side for a long time, Xiao Yan, who had an adult soul hidden in his young body, tasted the subtlety of his father's method.
He didn't suspect too much, but the inertial thinking of the past limited them, so that they were only immersed in the past and the other two families in the price competition on those ordinary goods, how to increase sales, but they didn't think of finding something else and finding some goods that the other two families did not have for exclusive sales.
Because Xiao Zhan's words were not pretentious, they were extremely simple and clear, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li also recalled, looked at their father again, and waited for his words.
But they didn't expect that the father, who suddenly became majestic and wiser in their minds, said the next sentence, "I asked you to come here today because I want you to help you think about what special products there are." ”
"Let's think?!" Xiao Ding and Xiao Li glanced at each other, looking at each other, a little surprised.
Xiao Yan's original praise for his father gradually faded, and sure enough, his father still didn't get rid of the shackles of his past thinking? But it's not surprising, after all, not everyone is a traverser, and they have experienced the baptism of a more prosperous world, so that their horizons are much broader.
Xiao Yan didn't mock his father, he just deeply felt the difference between the two worlds again.
In fact, when his father proposed to create special products belonging to the Xiao family, he had some ideas in his mind, but he couldn't say, after all, he was just a child who was about to turn four years old, and his current performance was already a little precocious.
No, even more than a demon!
Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind!
Xiao Yan also knows a little bit of this truth.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li pondered for a long time, but they still didn't come up with anything after all.
Xiao Zhan let his three sons here like this, two of them really thought about it, one was fishing, and he didn't deliberately look at Xiao Yan, his main target this time.
He said in a deep voice: "You are still young, sure enough, it is difficult for you to think about these things." ”
As he spoke, he sighed, a look of exhaustion on his face that could not be concealed.
"Father for us...... It's really hard for the sake of the family......" The three children noticed the flash of exhaustion on Xiao Zhan's face.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li said to themselves in their hearts at the same time, they only hated themselves for being powerless, and they couldn't share their father's worries at the moment.
Xiao Yan also noticed this tiredness, suddenly, he thought of the love of his father and mother for him after crossing into this world, in the previous life, he was an orphan and did not experience the so-called parental affection, in this life, he experienced, but did not expect that his mother died early, and his father, love for himself as always, but because of family affairs, he did not have much energy to spend on himself.
The words of his father's previous apology to them resurfaced in Xiao Yan's heart.
He finally made a decision.
Demons are demons!
As long as he can help his father share his worries, he is willing to become an outlier in the eyes of others.
"Father!"
Xiao Yan's crisp and soft voice sounded, which immediately attracted the attention of Xiao Zhan and Xiao Ding, and the two elder brothers looked at the youngest brother at the same time.
Xiao Zhan also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xiao Yan speak, it seemed that he had succeeded.
To help the Xiao family turn around the business in Fang City, of course he has a way, but he doesn't want to be so showy, if he can take advantage of Xiao Yan's cheap son, it is naturally the best, if he really decides to keep the things of the other world in his heart and is determined to fight to the end, Xiao Zhan has no choice but to go out by himself.
The thought flashed, and Xiao Zhan squeezed out a kind smile towards Xiao Yan and said, "Yan'er, what, could it be that you have some wonderful ideas?" ”
This tone, when Xiao Yan spoke, was a wonderful idea between children, but he did not ignore him because of this, but looked at Xiao Yan with a serious listen.
The appearance of his father made Xiao Yan's heart tremble again.
