She Only Cares About Cultivation-Chapter 907 - 821: Famine Era 62

Later, Ji Huzi was transferred back to District J, Department L in Yunan Province, becoming the head of Department L.

What surprised everyone might be the sisters Ye DanNi and Ye Zhiqiu.

They were both born in the same year, Ye Zhiqiu was even two months older than Dan Ni, and upon hearing Dan Ni skipped a grade, she gritted her teeth and did the same, so they both took the 1981 college entrance exam.

However, the two secretly kept from their family that during their senior year, they participated in the pilot selection process. After being selected, they didn’t announce it, and after the college entrance exam, they applied to the People’s Liberation Army Air Force Flight Academy, and only after receiving the admission letter did they share the news with their family.

Little did they know that what they thought was a mysterious surprise, how could their family not know? But since the children chose this path, enjoyed it, and even passed the assessment, what right did the parents have to oppose?

However, being female pilots might come with more difficulties and challenges than their male counterparts.

Thus we see that family tradition is important; whether Liu Family, Tong Family, Ji Family, or Ye Family, respecting children has become an implicit style.

"Although I haven’t been a model for the children, seeing their great achievements in this lifetime, it’s worth it."

If you think that Ye Huan would just let it go for the rest of her life, you are mistaken. Tong Zhan feels it’s worth it because all his regrets were compensated by the children, but Ye Huan believes her life is just beginning. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

How could she settle down honestly in her fifties after being restrained for so many years?

How would it be fair to the years of relentless training?

Isn’t it just about having a good body?

So two years later, she retired three years early, returned to Beijing in 1983, and with the salary compensation from Tong Zhan over the years, savings after buying a house, and the children’s filial piety, she opened a clothing store in Wangfujing.

The rented clothing store wasn’t small, three large rooms in total, over two hundred square meters, and just the annual rent alone was 5,000 yuan, she immediately signed a ten-year contract.

After leasing the clothing store, she personally designed it, supervised the decoration, using transparent glass windows, high-class wooden floors, soft lighting, and unique hanging display methods; even the fitting rooms and mirrors adopted the most avant-garde styles, successfully launching [Huan·Yan] clothing store.

Then she went to Guangzhou to wholesale clothing, using a vision from the future, accurately positioning their family clothing store in the mid-range market.

From decoration to rent, the first batch of goods, she invested a total of 30,000 yuan, and then opened the doors of Huanyan with a nervous heart.

Officially opened on May Day in 1983, invited dragon and lion dances, distributed flyers, launched full-amount gift activities, and the sales in three days reached 5,000 yuan.

Originally thought the goods would not sell, who knew the shop would blow up upon launch, and it was worth hiring three sales staff to work as guides, professionally training them during the decoration period, and differentiating customers’ experience from the cold shoulder of department stores to their welcoming smiles, treating customers as gods.

Priced higher than street vendors, slightly lower than department store clothing, still the most popular clothing in Southern, especially after launching the full-amount gift with promotional gift bags, within three days, she managed to gain heat for [Huan·Yan] in Wangfujing.

Of course, this was not her only strength, finding art academy or professional students to help draw posters for the glass windows, creating their own Huanyan clothing bags, gifting small wallets, belts, scarves, and other small gifts became their promotional methods.

First batch of goods cost 10,000 yuan, and in less than half a month, received a second batch from Guangzhou, for which she even specialized in railway freight transportation.

In her eyes, even at the age of fifty, she could still hustle for another ten years, and these ten years happened to be an opportunity for some people to get rich first, she absolutely couldn’t miss out, after all, all the merit in this lifetime would be based on these ten years; without a certain amount of startup capital, how could she create other projects in the future?

Doing individual businesses in this era wasn’t honorable, at least in the eyes of others, her early retirement was not a wise choice.

But she didn’t care about what others thought, because it wouldn’t be long before these people regretted their initial comments.

Those who looked down on individual businesses were still earning a meager monthly salary of tens of yuan, unbeknownst to them, the people they looked down on had already started to earn hundreds or even thousands of yuan daily and were quietly prospering.
