Chapter 491: I Like Gamblers

~7 min read 1,386 words

"My trip this time is for the purpose of investigation, but I intend to take a slice of this cake, so you need to consider whether or not to go to Pengcheng." An Yinan looked at Kang Jian, while throwing the question directly at him.

Kang Jian fell into silence; on one side was an unknown adventure, and on the other was a solid foundation already built.

Everyone knew how to choose.

But him?

"Nan, I'll go." Kang Jian stood up.

An Yinan looked at him; this person had transformed from a child not yet twenty years old into a successful businessman.

She used to appreciate his slickness and mindset, and now those merits still existed.

However, there was more stability and loyalty in him now.

In terms of communication with Beijing, and his heavy reliance on the people sent over by Guo Ge, he had already done very well in all these aspects.

"Why?" An Yinan smiled as she looked at him.

Kang Jian thought for a moment, "Perhaps I am a gambler by nature."

An immature business plan had kept him at Nan's shop.

Now he was going to a new place.

Compared to holding onto what he had, he preferred a challenge.

Was he short of money? He had already earned a lot by now, enough at the very least to let himself and his grandfather live the rest of their lives without worry about food or clothing.

After all, he received a commission on the shop's turnover.

But now, he wanted to challenge a bigger place and see a wider world.

"I like gamblers." An Yinan smiled, "Go back and pack your things. Spend these next few days guiding the person you've selected; hand the shop over to him later."

An Yinan had seen that person; he was waiting outside, one of the people who had come with Kang Jian.

And as for the people Guo Ge selected, she had always trusted Guo Ge's judgment.

"Okay." Kang Jian left the conference room.

And Han Xiao had been listening the whole time; it seemed like there was nothing for him to do?

But why did Nan keep him behind?

"Curious?" An Yinan saw Han Xiao's expression and guessed his likely state of mind.

Han Xiao did not hide it and nodded.

"You've worked in Hong Kong?" she asked.

Han Xiao answered earnestly, "Yes! My ancestors went to Hong Kong, and I only returned from Hong Kong last year."

"What do you think of Pengcheng?" An Yinan asked directly.

Han Xiao thought of that dilapidated and broken place and didn't quite understand why Nan would take a fancy to it.

"Most of it is just small fishing villages over there, Nan. I don't see any development value in it," Han Xiao answered honestly.

An Yinan was not in a hurry to tell him how prosperous the future Pengcheng would be or how much the Development Economics would flourish.

These were things they needed to experience for themselves.

"Arrange an identity for me in Hong Kong, one that can be verified, don't make it too fake. I will go to Hong Kong for a visit before long." An Yinan looked at Han Xiao.

This was the reason she kept him by her side.

"Yes." Han Xiao agreed immediately without asking further questions, nor did he know what Nan intended to do.

He only needed to do what Nan had instructed for now; everything would be known in the future.

After An Yinan finished giving instructions regarding the factory, she recorded some things in her notebook, as well as her observations and discoveries about these people.

After organizing these, she left the Clothing Factory.

"Nan, where to?" Xiao Guo hailed a taxi and asked An Yinan.

"Back to the Guest House," An Yinan replied.

She had been out all morning, and she didn't know if her grandmother and Big Aunt had eaten. Since they were all unfamiliar with this place, she was a little worried about them.

Although there was no need to worry about safety, as bodyguards were following them.

But she was worried they wouldn't adapt.

Returning to the Guest House, she had just entered the door when she saw her grandmother sitting in the Main Hall.

"Grandmother, why are you downstairs by yourself?" An Yinan walked over and supported her grandmother's arm.

Grandmother opened her eyes, looked at Nan Nan, and then said with a chuckle, "Your Big Aunt went upstairs to get something. We both wanted to go out for a stroll."

In such good weather, smelling the unique scents, she wanted to go out for a walk.

She wanted to see how this place differed from Beijing.

How could she not know that she was being willful this time?

At her age, she was just adding trouble to the younger generation.

"I'll go with you." An Yinan took a sun hat out of her backpack and put it on her grandmother.

She had also taken a few sets of clothes during this trip to the Clothing Factory.

There were sun hats, as well as dresses and short-sleeved shirts.

"Grandmother, I brought you some clothes. Shall we go upstairs and change?" An Yinan suggested.

She also brought a camera; this camera was quite old, a film camera, but it was in color.

After taking photos, she could have them developed to keep as a memento later.

"I won't change. I'm an old lady, and it won't look good for me to change clothes. Nan Nan, you go change," Grandmother said with a chuckle.

An Yinan hooked her arm through her grandmother's, "The clothes I have this time are Parent-child Outfits. Do you know what a Parent-child Outfit is?"

"It means the style and fabric are the same, with only slight differences in design, just in different sizes."

"Just think, when we walk down the street, others will see at a glance that this beautiful old lady is my grandmother, and I'll be so happy," An Yinan coaxed the old woman.

At the mere thought of that scene, Grandmother, who hadn't wanted to move just a moment ago, stood up immediately without needing anyone to pull her.

"Then let's go change our clothes right now," Grandmother said.

An Yinan supported Grandmother, and the two of them returned to the second floor.

"Why have you come back up?" Liu Xicai had just finished getting her things and was about to go downstairs.

"Big Aunt is coming too, we are wearing Parent-child Outfits today," An Yinan said.

Considering the ages of Big Aunt and Grandmother, she chose light yellow-toned clothing; Grandmother had a light yellow top and white light gauze trousers, which were neither revealing nor hot.

As for Big Aunt, she had a white long dress with a light yellow belt at the waist.

An Yinan had a light yellow dress with a white belt at the waist.

It was the exact opposite of Big Aunt's, but both the style and the look were very similar.

It was just that An Yinan's dress went just past her knees.

But Big Aunt's dress reached her ankles.

"It looks so good," Zhao Qiu Hua exclaimed in admiration when she saw them.

She had just been sleeping and hadn't fully recovered her energy yet.

The moment she opened her eyes, she was hit by a beauty blast.

"I prepared one for you too, in light blue tones; go change into it quickly, we are going out to take photos," An Yinan urged.

"You are all going out for a stroll as a family; wouldn't it be bad for me to tag along?" Zhao Qiu Hua hesitated slightly.

Nan Nan had little time to spend with her family, and she shouldn't go and interfere.

An Yinan pulled her up from the bed, "Hurry up."

Her Grandmother and Big Aunt were the type of people who liked lively company, and Qiu Hua was also her partner who had taken great care of her.

How could she leave her alone to sleep in the Guest House?

"Alright, alright," Zhao Qiu Hua was not the type to be coy.

She changed into the clothes and tied her hair up again.

An Yinan walked over, pulled her hair straight up to the top of her head, and styled it into a bun.
