Chapter 287: Chain Store

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As a person who was practically from the future decades ahead, Fang Ya naturally had different ideas from Wang Xu and the others.

For Wang Xu and the others, the power of the state-owned industry was much stronger than the private industry, and they were not very optimistic about the prospects of the private market.

Although many companies had started private recruitment over the past few years, it was still too risky an investment.

Fang Ya, on the other hand, thought otherwise. She wanted to take advantage of the fact that the private sector was not really thriving and gain a foothold there first.

Fang Ya was not wrong. Wang Xu and the others had repeatedly praised her for her foresight.

Fang Ya did not follow the traditional pattern of small shops. Instead, she turned a few shops into a franchise.

To Wang Xu and the others, this was almost reckless.

However, Wang Xu and the others had absolute trust in Fang Ya. Therefore, they went along with whatever Fang Ya planned.

After setting up a chain store, Fang Ya started a few similar shops in the vicinity that did not immediately seem to be doing very well.

Fang Ya repurposed the different shops and gained some understanding of the surrounding residential areas. Then, she started a door-to-door service.

This was something that would only bear fruit after a few decades, but at the moment, she was taking much of the future into account.

Many residents and factory workers had started to order from Fang Ya’s shops, and they had recognized this door-to-door service as something legitimate and innovative.

Wang Xu started to do a preliminary investigation of the surrounding shops, residential buildings, and factories according to Fang Ya’s request, and she had determined the direction for further development.

During this period, Wang Xu contacted Chu Qi from time to time, hoping that Chu Qi would join them again.

However, Chu Qi was also a stubborn person. He believed that Fang Ya did not have the backbone to face the tumultuous world of investing and did not want to waste his time.

Fang Ya also came to visit a few times, but she knew that she would not persuade Chu Qi no matter what.

Such was Chu Qi’s personality. The matter that he had set his mind on could only be resolved by himself.

Shao Hua sent people to look for Fang Ya a few times. They were all asking for new investment directions.

Jiang Han seemed to be afraid of Fang Ya because Fang Ya had previously raised the matter of buying a real estate.

After Shao Hua sent people over, Jiang Han would always contact Fang Ya by phone to confirm whether Fang Ya’s plan was feasible.

Fang Ya told He Feng about this situation. He Feng guessed that Jiang Han and Shao Hua probably had bad blood between each other, so they did not completely trust each other.

As for Shao Qiang’s poisoning, He Feng went to the hospital to find Director Fang to understand the situation. He then sent people to Shao Qiang’s nursing home to investigate the situation.

Although there was no way to prove that Shao Hua was the one who had ordered the poisoning, Shao Hua was definitely involved in this matter.

Fang Ya could feel that Shao Xiang’s mood had been in the pits during this period of time.

It was not until the news came from the hospital that Shao Qiang finally woke up. Shao Xiang’s face finally revealed a relieved expression.

Shao Xiang still accompanied her two grandchildren every day and went to the hospital to take care of Shao Qiang.

Ever since Shao Qiang woke up, the siblings talked about many things that had happened over the years.

Shao Xiang was surprised to find that Shao Qiang was not completely unaware of Shao Hua’s experience. On the contrary, he knew more than Shao Xiang did.

Shao Qiang even vaguely guessed that Shao Hua had been responsible for his own poisoning.

Shao Xiang asked Shao Qiang if he was disappointed over it.

Shao Qiang just smiled and did not say anything.

Fang Ya was still busy every day. Under Wang Xu and He Kun’s hard efforts, Fang Ya’s investment finally bore some fruit.

After nearly a month, the two surrounding streets had almost made up a small monopolized business street.
