Chapter 340

The sun had just come up when Little Sixth started clamoring to go out and play, because he still remembered Mom saying she'd take them to see the ocean when they arrived.

Wanqing was very helpless. "All you can think about is playing. You haven't even had breakfast yet. Aren't you hungry?"

"Not hungry, not hungry..." Little Sixth happily ran circles around Wanqing. "I already promised PingAn I'd bring him back seashells and shells when I got home..."

"You've still got to eat breakfast first before you can go." Wanqing didn't refuse him. After all, Second Brother was still here, and the machinery wasn't urgent, otherwise Second Brother would have noticed something with how clever he was.

Although Wu Lei was equally clever, both he and Hu Zhou thought they were using their relationship with the An family. In reality, whether she used it or not, An Zhiren definitely knew.

Besides, the An family's glory days were all decades ago now. Wanqing hadn't grown up in the An family either, so she'd never been in contact with any of that.

But An Zhiren smiled gently, "Go take care of your things if you need to. I'll take the three kids out for a look around and to see the sights. It won't be a wasted trip all this way."

"I don't have anything urgent. With Hu Zhou and Brother Wu here, I can't help much anyway. Let's just go out and have fun together." Wanqing said.

Wanqing unhurriedly followed them out to play for a day, going around town and to the seaside.

The weather was too hot to bring seafood back, so they could only buy some dried goods like sea cucumber and abalone. Little Sixth bought several conch shell horns that made a whining sound when blown into, with a string to wear around his neck.

Worried that PingAn wouldn't be able to wait, he repeatedly told An Zhiren to bring the conch shell horn back for him to give to PingAn.

Only after obtaining An Zhiren's promise did Little Sixth feel reassured enough to go play.

By the time they returned to their motel, everyone was exhausted.

An Zhiren tentatively asked her, "Little Sixth and the JianGuo kid seem to get along well. Even out here, he still thinks about him."

The foolish things Pei JianGuo had done were notorious even in the capital.

That was also why, despite their families being so close and around the same age, he and his brothers had never been close to Pei JianGuo.

Everyone said you could tell when a child was three years old. Pei JianGuo had been like this since he was little, liking to be pampered and doted on. Even though he was inferior to others, he still insisted on lording it over them.

An's Eldest was the same age as Pei Jing, Second and Third were about the same as Pei JianGuo. They were like oil and water, only maintaining appearances. As for Fourth Brother, he had a terrible temper and could never get along with this sort of person.

Wanqing sighed and said, "They're around the same age. Back when Guo Momo was around, she was always bringing PingAn over to play. He called Little Sixth 'Uncle,' so Little Sixth, with his somewhat arrogant personality, really put himself in the position of an elder and looked after PingAn like a child."

What she was thinking was, this was probably fate too.

In this life, Little Sixth was Pei Chenyou, no longer Pei Yuhao, and he had also escaped Pei Yuhao's fate. But PingAn had still entered the cycle of the previous life, taking Pei Yuhao's place.

Wanqing had never rejected Little Sixth getting close with PingAn. She probably felt a bit of pity for the child.

An Zhiren didn't say anything more. Fortunately the boy was with Pei Yongzhu now. With his guidance, hopefully he wouldn't develop a personality like Pei JianGuo's and thereby also corrupt Little Sixth.

An Zhiren stayed here for two days. They went out to play together the first day, and the second day he went out wandering alone.

Yue Ya had been taken away by Hu Zhou. Little Sixth was tired yesterday, so no matter what, he refused to get out of bed today. Wanqing could only leave him in the space and take Wanqing out.

"Friend, look, the latest electronic watches from overseas. Great prices, superb quality, very suitable for buying in bulk and reselling yourself..."

Wanqing had encountered this sort of thing with Wanqing many times now.

The goods were good goods, but things like this were mostly smuggled in, so best not to get involved.

The open policy had just started; reviews weren't very strict yet. Plus, Shenzhen was aggressively recruiting foreign investment, so smuggled goods avoiding tariffs weren't uncommon.

At this time, there were many people getting rich off of these kinds of goods, as long as you didn't get caught. If you were caught, you'd be eating prison food.

Wanqing was just wandering around killing time with Wanqing, but unbeknownst to them, not long after they left, a brother and sister struck up a conversation with the electronics seller.

After another two days, Wanqing found a remote warehouse through locals and rented it for three days for 20 yuan.

20 yuan was still a large expenditure in Jincheng, but in the bustling Shenzhen of today, it really wasn't much. She was able to rent it smoothly because of the remote location.

She had long since commissioned the machinery from the aquaculture magnate. Based on the era's level of development, they weren't fully automated machines. Many procedures still required manpower to operate.

But compared to machinery purchased from overseas, they were absolutely just as good, if not better.

Also, afraid they wouldn't be able to find engineers, the machinery came disassembled in batches. They just needed to follow diagrams for simple reassembly and connection for use.

After getting this done, Wanqing notified Wu Lei's side to come move the machinery.

The plant had long since been prepared; the machinery was the only thing without progress. Although Wanqing kept saying not to worry, as the person overseeing everything, how could Wu Lei not worry?

Although he only held 5% of the shares, he had been the most anxious person from coming here until now. This was also his only chance to turn things around, not even Hu Zhou was as anxious as him.

Seeing the machinery right before his eyes, he was overjoyed.

Wanqing hadn't been idle either. The skincare formula used pure herbal ingredients. Although she had only simply made a few bottles before, the aquaculture magnate had already begun mass production.

The formula was what she had used to pay for the machinery.

Batch production was naturally inferior in effect compared to individual handmade, but use would still produce significant obvious results.

The first batch of necessary plants had long since been prepared in her space, and had been moved into the plant along with the machinery.

Next, everyone was busy.

Wanqing took Little Sixth, Yue Ya, and PingAn. Wu Lei and Hu Zhou were busy with the machinery and hiring workers. Wanqing designed packaging and customization for the skincare products.

The product positioning was high-end skincare, so the packaging couldn't be random. It had to be beautiful and impressive, making people want to buy it as soon as they saw it. There was also naming the skincare products.

It took a full month to get these things on the right track and ensure they could still operate after she left.

As for later provision of raw materials, Wu Lei and Hu Zhou had long since found suppliers who could take over.

"Wanqing, look." Wu Lei excitedly brought over the first finished set to hand to Wanqing. "From production until now, we gave a set to each factory worker to try out for half a month. More or less everyone has had some obvious changes. Look at my face, it's clearly a lot whiter this half month. I dare say none of the stuff on the market now is as good as ours."
