Chapter 882: 878. The Complex Mind of a Parent (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

~8 min read 1,434 words

At the mere thought of these things, Zhang Siyan felt some indescribable emotions in her heart.

Just a few years ago, she was still a housewife, and her family life was quite miserable, but now, she was about to become the actual person in charge of a Fortune Global 500 company.

"Hmm, as for the shares, keep your own for yourself; don't give them all to Siyan. Transfer the rest to Siyan's name," Zhang Ran said.

Although Zhang Siyan had been slowly taking over Kangshilan before, the shares had always remained under the control of Huo Zhiyuan, and Zhang Ran had not asked for them.

After all, at that time, it was not very suitable to make big moves.

Now the timing was just right, and Zhang Siyan could take over Kangshilan in a legitimate manner.

"Brother Zhang, I don't want any shares; keeping these shares is of no use to me," Huo Zhiyuan said hurriedly.

"If I tell you to keep them, then keep them. If it really doesn't work out, just donate them to the Charity Fund," Zhang Ran said.

"Alright."

At the same time, Zhang Siyan wanted to say something, but she was interrupted by Zhang Ran, "Siyan, don't decline these shares either; they were meant for you in the first place.

You and Sicheng are the same; whatever he has, you will not lack."

Zhang Siyan opened her mouth, then finally looked at her older brother and sister-in-law. Seeing that their expressions had not changed in the slightest, she felt some emotion in her heart and finally said, "Alright, thank you, Dad."

Over such a long time, she had actually experienced a lot and seen through many things.

In these few years, she had seen no shortage of people who caused conflicts over family assets. Although it was not as melodramatic as in television dramas, in reality, their relationships were not very good either.

To say nothing else, even the second-generation heirs that Meng Mingxuan associated with had caused quite a few jokes because of these matters.

But their family did not have that, which made her feel very warm inside.

"Why are you saying these things when we are family?" Zhang Sicheng said with a chuckle.

Regarding such an arrangement, he naturally had not the slightest objection. Not to mention that his bond with Zhang Siyan as siblings was very deep, even with his own personality, he could not give rise to any other thoughts.

He had been able to endure such bitter days in the past, and now that life was better, he would not become the type of person who haggled over every ounce, especially when facing his own biological sister; that was even more impossible.

As for Liu Lu, she would have such thoughts even less. Although it is said that a son inherits his father's business, she was not a greedy person either.

Moreover, Zhang Ran had not treated their family unfairly.

Seeing such a situation, the happiest person was naturally Zhang Ran. In fact, he was truly afraid that because of money, the family would have those kinds of awkward conflicts.

Some things, don't look at how well they are said, and don't listen to people saying they don't care on the surface, but in reality, if even the slightest bit of favoritism is shown, the majority of people will absolutely not be happy in their hearts.

Zhang Ran knew these sentiments. Let alone wealthy families, even in ordinary families, it is not unheard of—and in fact, quite common—for people to have conflicts over money, or even end up with everyone turning against them.

"What you need to do next is to let go and do it. No matter what happens, I will be there to back you up, so don't worry about anything else," Zhang Ran said happily.

"Hmm, Dad, I plan to acquire some companies. Here is the list," Zhang Sicheng said, seizing the opportunity.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ran said directly, "Handle it yourself. If you don't have enough money, go to the bank for a loan."

This time, Zhang Ran did not say he would provide the money. Since he wanted to let them venture out on their own, Zhang Ran had to let go completely.

If they suffered losses and Zhang Sicheng and the others could not pay the money back, only then would Zhang Ran come out to provide a safety net.

As for the matter of loans, Zhang Ran did not need to worry at all. As long as Zhang Sicheng spoke up, he believed no bank would refuse, even if it exceeded the limits of their company.

After all, with a father who was the richest man as their backing, there was truly no bank that would worry about them not being able to repay the loan.

Especially since Zhang Ran only had this pair of children, and coupled with the fact that Zhang Ran was not a miserly person, they were very generous.

Zhang Ran could even guess that if Zhang Sicheng let word out, banks would even bid against each other for the loan.

There was no helping it; no one wanted to give up such a guaranteed profitable deal.

"Alright." Zhang Sicheng also felt his father's determination and took a deep breath.

From now on, no matter what, he would have to shoulder everything himself. Only when he could not hold on would he be able to look for his father.

Seeing him in this state, Zhang Ran worried again and said, "Don't be too anxious. Everything must be done slowly, and when you encounter problems, don't take them too much to heart."

Good grief, just before he had told Zhang Sicheng and the others to go ahead and venture out, and now he himself was worried again.

There was no helping it; this was the helplessness of being a parent. One hopes that their children can carve out a world of their own and have their own careers.

Yet one also does not want the children to suffer too great a setback because of it.

This is a very contradictory sentiment, but it is very easy to understand.

The family talked and ate their meal, appearing harmonious and happy.

Finally, Zhang Ran thought of Liu Lu's plastic surgery hospital and asked casually, "Xiao Lu, how is your hospital? Is the situation alright?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Lu immediately made a bitter face and said, "Dad, this company is really not that simple. Sigh, the company..."

She did not even know how to put it.

It was Zhang Sicheng who spoke up, "Liu Lu's hospital is running very well; profits and clients are both growing."

"Then why that expression?" Zhang Ran asked curiously.

Zhang Sicheng said, "What else could it be? It's all about management. The company has had quite a few problems. For example, those nurses who came over with Xiao Lu, some of them are using company resources to do their own things.

Some are even reselling the company's client data. Xiao Lu doesn't know how to handle it for the time being."

At the beginning, it was fine. With Zhang Ran's deterrent power, and the fact that everyone was working together with one heart when they first started the business, but as the company developed better and better, everyone's income also grew accordingly.

What followed was an increasingly unsatisfied heart; this is also human nature.

So some people started to have ulterior motives. After all, when it comes to money, no one will complain about having too much.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ran smiled and said, "What's difficult about that? Fire those who should be fired, and handle things as they should be handled.

If you really can't bring yourself to be ruthless, then just go talk to them directly. If they restrain themselves, then everything goes back to the old way; if they are still the same as before, then there is nothing to hesitate about.

Of course, there is a premise to this, which is that they have not caused harm to the clients' bodies for their own benefit."

Upon hearing this, Liu Lu hurriedly said, "Dad, you can rest assured about that. They absolutely have not done such a thing. After all, they all came from large hospitals, so they still have that bit of sense of responsibility."

This was truly the case; just as Liu Lu said, they all came from large hospitals, and the sense of responsibility cultivated within those places meant they could not bring themselves to do such things.
