Chapter 690: Chapter 498: Reasonable Arrangement

“`

In mid-November, after Chen Tan left.

Grandpa came alone from Tower King Villa to the Bund Community to find him.

The over-eighty-year-old grandpa had experienced everything, from the earliest ghost village invasions to several years of civil war

That era could be described as rife with war.

It wasn’t just about having enough to eat, just living safely was a luxury.

Then, in 1949, the establishment of the new China was announced.

The wars were finally over, and everyone looked to the East and thanked the great leader.

The days that followed saw one era after another.

“Grandpa, you didn’t come just to talk about history, did you?”

“Of course not, I just want you to understand some things.”

Through grandpa’s weathered gaze, a tone of plainness seeping through, “The pride of your dad’s generation was to marry a poor farmer, the seventies were different again, everyone preferred to marry degrees, in the eighties it was marriage visas, countless people dreaming of going abroad, and by the nineties, those who were not too bad off wanted to marry into wealth.

“When your grandma and I first got married, we believed in the strength in numbers, so everyone was desperately having children, but for your cousin Chen Tan’s generation, family planning was at its strictest.

“From five or six kids in a family, it shrank to one or two, with fewer children naturally receiving more love from their parents.”

Chen Pingsheng understood, his grandpa was here to persuade him.

Not about Chen Tan’s matters, but to ask him to stand more in the shoes of his relatives, to understand those people.

Just like his second aunt and second uncle, they were uneducated people.

Whatever Chen Tan turned out to be, they didn’t have the capacity to raise him well.

Once Chen Tan and the others arrived in Magic City, Chen Pingsheng gave them material comforts that did not match their skills.

They went from biking to suddenly riding in Rolls-Royces in Magic City.

It’s inevitable there would be a phase where attitudes couldn’t adjust.

The younger generation still lacks extensive social experience, and even less ability to handle money.

It’s like a three-year-old child suddenly holding a hundred thousand in cash, and his first thought isn’t to hide it at home but to show it off to his peers.

But he must understand this himself.

He cannot make them suddenly rich and then expect strict behavior and disallow mistakes.

Thinking back to when he, Chen Pingsheng, was a naughty and mischievous child, always causing trouble everywhere he went.

His third uncle and second uncle, including his little aunt, would help him without asking why first.

And now, when he has the ability,

he lost patience with relatives’ issues; he should give these people more time, or more help.

This assistance isn’t just about money, it should also be about patience.

Most of the younger generation from the Chen, Song, Peng, and Liu families have moved to Magic City, and due to the number of people, Chen Pingsheng adopted an almost ruthless attitude, using an elimination system.

This, to grandpa, was not the correct choice; the old generation still values family deeply.

mself.

Perhaps, as grandfather said, it is his patience that has led to all this.

Magic City may be a bustling and realistic city, but there should still be warmth among relatives.

And he himself should adjust his way of doing things.

After Chen Pingsheng returned home, he couldn’t find Song Yanxi.

He called her and found out that she had gone to the headquarters of Water Cloud Space.

Chen Pingsheng drove to find his wife; there was something he still preferred to discuss with his wife before making a decision.

Water Cloud Space is entirely staffed with women, all of them from the countryside.

But these girls are now all in fairly good conditions.

At the very least, much better than his relatives who had just arrived in Magic City.

Song Yanxi’s office is still very distinctive; there is a view of the Huangpu River from the floor-to-ceiling windows. Sitting here, having a cup of tea, and talking about work – to say life isn’t comfortable would be a lie.

“Husband, did you come over here just for this?”

“Pretty much, this morning grandfather went to see me alone, and I went to Tower King Villa again. The environment inside is luxurious to live in, but it truly lacks some of the countryside warmth that should exist between relatives.”

Song Yanxi blinked her beautiful eyes, “Husband, you have always been managing these relatives of our generation with the methods you use for managing a business. Doubtless, their parents are nervous, fearing they might make a mistake and be sent back to the countryside by you; under such circumstances, naturally, there won’t be any warmth.”

Chen Pingsheng realized that his wife had already noticed the problem and had simply not mentioned it.

“Also, the start-up fund can’t just be applied for without restrictions; there must be some conditions, such as having worked in Magic City for a year or two and doing quite well.”

These restrictions are mainly because some people can’t even handle two million in experience.

They must first truly understand Magic City, integrate into Magic City, and when they really have entrepreneurial ideas, then give them the money.

This is obviously more reasonable.
