Chapter 492 Visiting the Fu Family
Haha! If you have difficulties, go to the leader. Previously, Huayan's Yanxi Trading and Jiu'er Trading sources their goods from the foreign trade bureaus of several special economic zones. They obtained a large number of foreign trade commodities through their connections, but they did not have their own real channels. Their relationship with the foreign trade bureaus was just a cooperative one.
Now, Hua Yan wants to establish a foreign trade company with its own distribution channels. Back then, she went to great lengths to find partners abroad and partnered with Glory to establish Yaojiu Group, all in the name of investing and building factories in China under the guise of a foreign business.
In other words, the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone had relaxed policies and offered many preferential measures, which allowed Hua Yan and her group to develop rapidly. In Kyoto, Mayor Zhang Fan also provided many policies, which enabled Hua Yan to accomplish a lot of practical things.
However, in the Northeast, without explicit regulations from the central government, they dare not exploit policy loopholes. Even if there are policies, the Northeast is very conservative and doesn't want to be the first to try something new.
With a plan in mind, Huayan returned to Kyoto on July 7th.
If she didn't go back soon, she would miss the exam, and then she would have to gossip to the teacher, which would be a huge loss. So Hua Yan rushed back in time.
A week later, Hua Yan emerged from the examination hall, having completed all her exams. She wasn't worried about the results, as none of the questions had stumped her.
As for whether she can get first place, Hua Yan doesn't care, because she has more important things to do. Grades are an indispensable part of her life, but not a very important one.
As soon as I came out of the examination room, I was surrounded by Fulinfuwang.
"Little sister Jiu'er, Grandpa wants you to come home for dinner."
Fuwang held Huayan's hand tightly, afraid that if he didn't keep an eye on her, Huayan would disappear again.
“Okay! No problem. I also brought a gift for Grandpa! I can give it to him today.”
Hua Yan also wanted to visit these important figures, so she decided to start with Fu Youguo, the Director of the Policy Planning Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"Oh? That's great."
Fuwang jumped up excitedly, and Fulin grinned as well. He wasn't as lively as Fuwang, and his emotional expression was more reserved.
"Third Brother, Fourth Brother, wait for me downstairs for a moment, I'm going upstairs to get the gift."
Okay! Do you have any for me?
Fu Wang shamelessly asked a question.
"Yes, they all are."
Hua Yan thought to herself, "I have as many as you want."
Going upstairs was just a pretext; the gifts are all in the space, but I need to organize them.
In no time, Hua Yan returned carrying a large bag filled with many things. There were quite a few people in the Fu family; no one could be left out.
Last time I visited the Fu family, I only saw Grandpa Fu, not Grandma Fu. I heard she was working abroad at the time! She might be here this time too, so it wouldn't be good to go empty-handed.
"Oh dear! Sister Jiu'er, why are you carrying so much?"
Fu Wang accepted the bag without any hesitation.
"Here are gifts from Grandpa Fu, gifts from Grandma Fu, gifts from Third Brother and Fourth Brother's parents, and gifts from you all."
"Oh? There are also gifts for my grandma and my parents?"
"Of course. If you're included, how could they be left out!"
“Little sister Jiu’er, how thoughtful of you, we didn’t even buy you a gift.”
Fu Lin spoke up this time, feeling that he hadn't done a good enough job as an older brother.
"Yes! Sister Jiu'er, we didn't prepare any gifts for you."
Fu Wang felt a little embarrassed by what Fu Lin said.
"You didn't go out, why buy a gift?"
Hua Yan was melted by the guilty looks on the faces of the two exceptionally handsome children.
"Then we'll buy you a gift when we go out in the future."
"Okay! I'll remember that."
The three of them arrived home in no time. Surprisingly, everyone in the family was there today, including Fu Lin and Fu Wang's parents.
"Oh my! This must be the little prodigy that the three men in our family praise endlessly."
As soon as Hua Yan entered the house, she was attracted by a woman with a noble appearance, dignified and generous demeanor.
"Is this Grandma Fu? I'm Jiu'er, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Hua Yan's composed and confident demeanor immediately earned her many points from Grandma Fu.
"Hehe! Little prodigy, you have good eyesight, you recognized me right away."
Hua Yan realized who Fu Wang resembled: his grandmother, who was both beautiful and humorous.
"come on in."
Grandma Fu pulled Hua Yan into the house.
"This is Fuwang's father, and this is his mother."
"Hello, Uncle! Hello, Auntie!"
"Greetings, Jiu'er!"
Fuwang's parents greeted Huayan with smiles.
"Oh my! Jiu'er, Fuwang said you would come today, and he actually invited you."
Fu Youguo came out of the study, taking off his glasses as he spoke.
"Hehe! Even though they didn't invite me, I still came to visit my grandparents today."
I was disappointed that I didn't see Grandma last time I came! Today I'm here to make up for that.
I recently went to Heilongjiang Province and brought back some things for my family. Please don't mind them.
As she spoke, Hua Yan gestured for Fu Wang to give her the bag.
"Haha! This little rascal, no wonder Fu Lin and Fu Wang like you. Who wouldn't like you?"
Grandma Fu stroked Hua Yan's head, feeling as if she had known her for a long time.
Hua Yan smiled and said, "It's true, apart from Liu Fengzhi and Old Madam Hua, there really isn't anyone who doesn't like her."
Hua Yan distributed all the gifts she had brought; they weren't anything expensive, just a token of her affection.
Grandpa Fu received a pipe, Grandma Fu received an inkstone, Dad Fu received a fountain pen, Mom Fu received a silk scarf, and Fu Lin and Fu Wang received two model cars.
Actually, none of these things were bought in Heilongjiang Province; Heilongjiang Province was just a name given to them.
After distributing the gifts, Hua Yan was pulled to sit down, and everyone gathered around her, talking to her. Her gifts touched everyone's hearts.
Grandpa Fu loves to smoke, and this pipe suits him perfectly. Grandma Fu loves calligraphy, and this inkstone, regardless of its price, was made with care. Dad Fu's fountain pen and Mom Fu's silk scarf are simple and unrefined, but they have been appreciated. For a little child to have such thoughtfulness is truly remarkable.
Actually, they didn't have time to look at them carefully. Each of their gifts was brought back from abroad by Hua Yan, and none of them were cheap.
"Jiu'er, I heard from Fuwang that you took a long leave of absence and only came back before the exam?"
"Yes! We went to Heilongjiang Province with my dad to investigate the market there. R country has a very strong demand for light industrial products, but we are not qualified to set up our own foreign trade company, so we can't do business with them directly."
Hua Yan immediately focused on the key points.
Grandpa and Grandma Fu exchanged a glance but didn't respond. They couldn't offer their opinions; this involved national economic policies, and they couldn't comment on it casually.
Hua Yan didn't dwell on that topic and began talking about the hardships Northeast China faces and the problems it will soon encounter.
No one in the Fu family expected Hua Yan to have such insightful concerns, and they couldn't help but look at her with new respect. Not only was she academically gifted, but she also had a broad perspective. Fu Lin and Fu Wang would benefit greatly from associating with such a child.
When Hua Yan left the Fu family, she had already become a very popular person in the family.
Fu Lin and Fu Wang escorted Hua Yan safely back to school before leaving.
Back in her dorm, Hua Yan called Tai Ji. She had been busy with exams since returning from Heilongjiang Province and hadn't had a proper chat with Tai Ji yet!
"Jiu'er!"
"Brother Taiji, when will you finish your exams?"
"I have one last exam tomorrow, what about you?"
"I finished my exams today and had dinner at Fulinfuwang's house tonight."
"Do you have any other work plans?"
“I’m going to visit Grandpa Ye’s house and Chief Gao’s house in the next few days. I want to talk to them about setting up a trading company in Heilongjiang Province.”
"Okay! Once you're done with your work, let's go out and have some fun for a couple of days."
Taiji wanted to go with Huayan, but then he thought that he would just be a supporting character and wouldn't be of any use, so he didn't say anything.
He hadn't seen Hua Yan for over two months; they only talked on the phone, and even then, only once every ten days or so. This time, Hua Yan told him that she would call him again after her exams, and he didn't dare disturb her, so he just waited anxiously.
