Chapter 353

As long as they could find connections, they could obtain land from the government at an extremely low cost, thus achieving a win-win situation.

The design of Huasheng Grand Hotel also came from Zhi Xia\'s hand, and she contributed 30% of the funds. Wu Xiaohua held 30%, while the remaining 40% was controlled by Liu Xuan, who was also responsible for subsequent management.

Liu Xuan did not have a high level of education, but he was literate and harder working than an average person. Such a person would eventually rise above the masses - he just lacked an opportunity for someone to give him a hand.

Zhi Xia found him several books on hotel management. She barely asked about the subsequent construction and recruitment - including Wu Xiaohua, whose role was limited to contributing funds. She was completely unable to participate.

Fortunately, Liu Xuan was open-minded. Knowing his own inability, he did not interfere, satisfied to be a shareholder who only collected dividends. It was not bad, and certainly less tiring than Liu Xuan\'s job.

Wang Li had not appeared at school for several days, facing graduation job assignments and divorce from Li Fei.

Zhi Xia had not deliberately inquired about the matter, but she learned what had happened from Li Fei, and could easily guess the subsequent results.

Although Li Fei was cheerful and passionate, he also had a temperamental side.

He had believed they were in a loving marriage, but it turned out to be his wife\'s elaborate scheme - something almost anyone would have trouble accepting.

In the classroom, the hottest topic recently was everyone\'s job assignments after graduation.

The best outcomes were civil servants and jobs in public institutions. Slightly worse options were factory placements, but those could still lead to management roles.

After all, the country had long suffered from a talent shortage. The university students it worked hard to cultivate certainly could not be made to do simple manual labor.

Of course, they only discussed this speculation in private. Their individual preferences did not determine the final assignments.

After class, Zhi Xia returned home to find An Jingzhi there as well.

Over the years, the relationship between them had improved significantly. Bygones were bygones - no one wanted to bring up those events again. At minimum, they could maintain a superficial calm.

An Jingzhi and Zhou Nan were also compensating Zhi Xia. Although they realized she needed little help career-wise or at home.

Thinking of her siblings, she was actually the least worrisome child. The previously most rebellious fourth child had also settled down after joining the army.

On the other hand, the most obedient second and third children had caused them no small amount of worry.

The steady eldest child could only leave his wife and children at home for An Jingzhi and Zhou Nan to help look after.

Zhi Xia made tea for An Jingzhi. Perhaps out of habit, she had also come to enjoy drinking tea - simple preparations slowly savored.

“You’re about to graduate from school. What are your plans after getting your work assignment?” An Jingzhi carefully tasted the tea. The lingering fragrance on his lips and teeth signaled satisfaction, and he put the cup back on the table.

“I’ll see what the school arranges,” Zhi Xia said. “My grades are decent, so the assignment shouldn’t be too bad.”

Her original purpose in attending university was to improve her education level, so people wouldn’t assume she was an illiterate when hearing the name An Zhi Xia.

“But public institutions don’t allow private business,” An Jingzhi reminded her. “That would be impossible to hide, and there’s no need to take the risk. Factories would also take many years to rise up the ranks. Since you already run your own factory, there’s no need.”

“Let’s see the school’s arrangements first. I actually prefer developing my own business,” she replied. She didn’t like rigid jobs, and running her own business was more liberating.

In addition, with the economy just beginning to open up, not aggressively expanding would be letting herself down.

“Your father was thinking, Jin City University will establish an economics department next year. With your business success in Shen City, you could compete for a teaching position and work toward an economics professor title after a few years. That certainly wouldn’t hurt.”

Although An Jingzhi had treated Zhi Xia very unfairly in the past, he now sincerely looked out for her interests.

“What about my second brother?” Zhi Xia asked him.

“Your second brother plans to go into politics. With his outstanding academic performance, that shouldn’t pose much difficulty. We can’t intervene on his behalf in Jing City, so his luck is all that remains to be seen.”

An Jingzhi meant that if Zhi Xia gave it careful consideration, he still had some connections he could leverage, not for selfish reasons. Anyone with helpful connections wouldn’t neglect their own children.

But Zhi Xia felt secretly pulling strings would be deeply unfair to others.

“I still think we should wait and see. I went to university mainly to avoid remaining illiterate in others’ eyes, not because I’m particularly attracted to jobs,” she said.

Having lived so long and seen so much, Zhi Xia herself preferred enjoying life when possible without holding extravagant ideals.

Making money was the foundation of that enjoyment.

In the end, although she had been eligible for a prosecutorial position, she was assigned a high school teaching job instead because of her beauty and Huasheng Hotel shares. Zhi Xia declined.

After New Year\'s, Zhi Xia visited Shen City again.

After two or three years, the factory there was very stable, with nationally franchised stores reaching 23 locations and supply volumes remaining steady.

When Wu Lei learned Wu Xiaohua had opened Huasheng Grand Hotel in Jin City, he was so excited he couldn’t close his mouth, even more thrilled than at his own factory’s establishment.

After all, no matter how well he did himself, he still hoped his son would accomplish more.

But he also understood most of the credit belonged to Zhi Xia’s support and Liu Xuan’s leadership, not Wu Xiaohua alone.

However, during this Shen City trip, Zhi Xia discarded plans to open a branch factory.

The existing Shen City plant was large enough, with supply from all regions keeping pace, so a branch was unnecessary.

What they needed now was product diversification.

Shen City\'s development had reached an considerable scale, attracting many Hong Kong and foreign investors who thoroughly catalyzed fashion trends there. Ladies dressed up elaborately.

There was one other piece of welcome news - after years of effort, Jiao Yan had secured market share, accounting for a certain proportion of sales. Connections to overseas markets had also been established. In early February, they shipped their first batch of products abroad.
