Chapter 545 Decision
Cai Meina and her group rushed over early in the morning; they hadn’t seen the children for a week and missed them dearly.
Even though Hua Miaozhu often visited and told them about how well Gong Ruini and the others were eating, which truly was good, as parents, having their children suddenly away for so long, of course, they missed them.
Seeing the kids’ rosy cheeks was a relief, but soon they were shocked by Zhao Guangran’s actions.
"You, a mere child." Zhan Jing knew that Zhao Guangran was a tough kid, but she never thought he’d be so bold.
Causing such a big stir at school, she really didn’t know what to say, "You’re a student, just focus on studying and don’t meddle in so many things."
Though looking at the current trend, some things can’t return to how they were, but being this arrogant is also not right.
Where is this place? This is Beijing; you don’t even know the connections of your deskmate’s family. Do you think those who enter the key class are just smart students?
Whether in the past or now, there are always some people with privileges. If her son offends them and gets into big trouble, what then? Is he going to rely on Uncle Zhuge to step in?
He does have the connections, but it’s already troubling enough to involve Uncle Zhuge, we can’t let him get dragged into this again.
The more Zhan Jing thought, the angrier she got. Every time she tried to educate Guang Ran, Zhao Gang would jump in to defend their son, but now look, trouble has happened.
Zhan Jing stated that this time, regardless of how Zhao Gang defends Zhao Guangran, a plan to educate him must be formulated.
Zhan Jing wasn’t against hoping her child would succeed, but not every child can have remarkable achievements. If Zhao Guangran isn’t exceptional, she has no qualms, not every child is.
However, a child may not succeed but absolutely must not court trouble outside.
Zhao Gang pinched his nose and had nothing to say either; he was also shocked by his younger son’s actions, unaware he would stir up such a big mess, and if he’d known, he wouldn’t have indulged him.
"Dad, Mom, listen to me." Zhao Guangran initially wanted to boast a little, after all, he was doing something impressive, but didn’t expect his parents to have such expressions, it scared him.
Zhao Guangran really didn’t understand—he was doing something great, absolutely bringing progress to his peers, but his parents just wouldn’t agree.
"What are you going to say?" Zhan Jing pulled Zhao Gang, preventing him from speaking. If her husband opened his mouth again, Zhan Jing feared not knowing where the conversation would go.
"I discovered a way to make money." Zhao Guangran wanted to show off a bit, but now he didn’t dare and couldn’t speak with a grin; otherwise, who knows how things would develop.
So, he thought it better to stay serious. Zhao Guangran sincerely and earnestly said.
A money-making path? Zhao Gang’s eyes lit up. To him, any way to make money was a good way.
"Shut up." Zhan Jing ordered Zhao Gang, who could only hide behind her helplessly.
Wow, it was the first time Gong Ruini saw Zhan Jing with such presence. Usually, regardless of how outrageous Zhao Gang’s behavior was, Zhan Jing would always give him face, never speaking to him like this in front of them.
But today was different; she could be so fierce towards Zhao Gang, you might say, with a bit of dominance.
"You should be focused on improving your classmates’ grades. Where do you find the time to think about getting rich?" Zhan Jing didn’t say it, but she wished he would just focus on studying without thinking about making money, especially since she didn’t believe a child like Zhao Guangran would have a good money-making idea.
"It’s really a money-making idea; if you don’t believe me, ask Big Brother." Zhao Guangran felt wronged; he had been reflecting on his actions these past few days, but why wouldn’t his mom believe him or listen to where he planned to make money.
With his grievance, tears welled up, hoping his parents would understand his feeling of being wronged.
Seeing her son’s eyes turn red, Zhan Jing panicked; she feared she had made another foolish mistake, helplessly turning to Zhao Gang and Zhao Xuran.
"Mom, Guangran thought of a money-making idea, which we also think isn’t bad." Zhao Xuran couldn’t say that Zhan Jing was wrong about Guangran’s actions or ask her to apologize to him.
While Guangran did make mistakes, his efforts shouldn’t be dismissed so quickly, "It’s about compiling the test papers we created for Guangran’s class into exercise books and selling them after printing."
They were aware of their son crafting test papers for Guangran’s friends, but was anyone really going to buy them?
Zhao Gang had long been distanced from the primary school circle, unaware such business was still in vogue. However, wasn’t there a trend after the resumption of college entrance exams where people sold their study materials? Though he didn’t know the sales performance, it was reportedly pretty good.
That is understandable, considering many were uncertain about their future after returning to the city, so passing the college entrance exams was seen as a significant life turnaround. Holding some money as an educated youth, purchasing those practice sets wasn’t burdensome, but might a primary school student feel differently?
"How would you know if you don’t try? I know the practice tests our big brother compiled were in high demand."
Zhao Guangran, though frustrated, was not foolish. To persuade his parents, he needed them to know this was indeed popular, and other aspects were no longer crucial.
Hearing Zhao Guangran talk about the various strategies he used to get hold of exam questions from his classmates, Zhao Gang was stunned, "No way, are they really in such high demand?"
Gong Tao was also amazed. Recently, he was cooped up at home, discussing with Zhao Gang and Cai Ming about ways to make money, but they hadn’t thought of any good solutions. Unexpectedly, Zhao Guangran discovered a lucrative opportunity.
Gong Tao insisted they needed to reevaluate, otherwise, they might be outpaced by a group of kids in the future, "I think we can proceed."
The project was endorsed by their daughter, and since they’d be printing the papers at home, the investment wasn’t significant, although it would be busy. But where there’s money, why not earn it?
"Alright, let’s start printing then." Zhao Gang decided to begin today.
Uncle Zhao was always so decisive, firing up at the sound of a money-making venture, though now wasn’t the ideal time.
In Gong Ruini’s view, the issue wasn’t that the reputation hadn’t been established yet; since they intended to make money, they should compile more topics first, allowing the business to sustain.
Gong Ruini had previously heard that in recent years, the publication of such materials wasn’t strictly regulated; having a sponsorship spot sufficed. However, they should wait for the exercise books to gain fame before finding a sponsor, avoiding expenses before earnings, which would distress not only Gong Ruini but others as well.
