Chapter 52 The older the world, the less courageous you are

The next day, early in the morning, Zhao Shucheng made an appointment with Xie Zhiyao, took his car to the airport, and then went straight to Shenzhen to sign the contract.

When Xu Hongdou knew that Zhao Shucheng was leaving and wanted to send him off, she saw Zhao Shucheng carrying a small bag and couldn't help but ask: "You just bring such a little thing?"

"Otherwise? I'm going to sign a contract, not to travel or stay in the business, and after signing and getting the money. If there is a plane back, I'll come back directly. If there is no one, stay for one night, don't bring too many things, right?"

Xu Hongdou then realized and said, "You must not sign a contract with someone more formal?"

"What do you care about so much? It's better for people to be comfortable on their own. Always consider other people's ideas. How tiring is to live."

At this time, Xie Zhiyao came to ask Zhao Shucheng to go out. He agreed, and then kissed Xu Hongdou while he was not paying attention, and then ran out.

Xu Hongdou touched the place where Zhao Shucheng kissed just now, looked at Zhao Shucheng's back and smiled.

Although Zhao Shucheng said he came back after signing, the flight from Shenzhen to Dali is not available every day, so Zhao Shucheng can only wait for the next day's flight.

The courtyard without Zhao Shucheng seemed to have returned to its previous state and became deserted. Although Zhao Shucheng was just lying on the recliner when he was there, it gave everyone a different feeling.

Xu Hongdou felt that something was missing, and her thoughts also drifted to Shenzhen. This was the first time she was worried about a man.

Although Zhao Shucheng videoed Xu Hongdou after he landed, and even sent her a message at night, he always felt empty. Fortunately, she still had a small restaurant to go to, and work allowed her to kill time, and she would not feel so difficult.

Others also felt that there was a lot of fun. Damai either wrote in the room, went out to pick up Lin Na, or rested in her room every day.

Perhaps the only thing that is not affected much in the courtyard is Maqiushan, who is busy starting his own business.

Although Zhao Shucheng has confirmed the investment, Maqiushan does not expect Zhao Shucheng at all. After all, if it is just Zhao Shucheng's investment, they can only be considered a partnership, which is not very beneficial to the company's development, and it is not very good for him to control the company.

Fortunately, Xie Zhiyao also knew that Maqiushan wanted to start a business, so he introduced his previous colleague to Maqiushan and won him a second investment.

However, the other party also made a request to Maqiushan, that is, he must also invest some funds so that the funds can be received.

In fact, this is understandable. After all, Maqiushan is doing physical operations this time, and is no longer an Internet industry. If Maqiushan does not invest funds by itself, the other party will always be a little worried. That is why Maqiushan is asking it to invest funds by itself and bear the risks together.

Maqiushan also understood the other party's concerns, but the money he earned before was basically the same when he started his business last time, and even bought a house. If he wanted to take out some money, he could only move the house he bought for his parents after he made money.

But Maqiushan doesn't really want to sell a house because it is already his last asset and retreat. He is worried that if the tea shop fails to operate, his parents will not be able to withstand such a blow.

As the saying goes, the older the world, the less courageous it is. Maqiushan was young and frivolous when he was young and did nothing he dared to do. He took the savings of his parents for most of his life and went to start a business without telling his family. Later, after earning money, he told his family about starting a business.

Now that he is getting older, although he is persistent in starting a business, he is also beginning to worry about what happens after the failure of his business. Or it can be said that with his previous failure and long-term reflection, his edges and corners have been smoothed out.

He was a little confused about his entrepreneurship, so he specifically asked Aunt Agui for advice. After all, although Aunt Agui never went far in his life, and was even just an ordinary rural woman, sometimes what he said was very Zen and gave people great inspiration.

"Aunt A Gui, I want to ask you some questions."

Aunt Agui couldn't believe it and said, "Here's here again. Let me tell you, you are a top student, I am an old mother who graduated from elementary school. What can I help you?"

"No, you have great wisdom, but you must."

"Okay, since you have invited me warmly, I'll sit down and listen to it and see if I can give you some ideas."

"That's right, you know that I'm starting a business. Of course, it's not my first time starting a business. The first few entrepreneurs can be said to be smooth sailing, quite successful, and almost reached the peak of my career. But when I climbed for the last time, I was not sure and went bankrupt. Later, I carefully summarized it. The luck and luck in my previous successes were relatively large."

"You also know that this entrepreneurship is probably not successful in most cases. This failure is much more than success. Those who can reach the peak in the end are the best in the industry. You taught me a while ago that you must think about it. My parents are old. If I fail again in this business, they will suffer a major blow. This is my concern. I want to hear your opinions. Should I start a business again?"

Aunt Agui said, "Master Ma, you have been talking for a long time and it's all nonsense."

"How can this be nonsense?"

"You said before that you are already starting a business. Since you are starting a business, why do you still ask me if I want to start a business? Isn't this nonsense?"

Maqiushan said: "Ah, my wording is not accurate enough. Do I need to continue to start a business?"

"You are asking me if you are going to give up halfway, but right? Well, even if you are going to give up halfway now, what are you going to do? Or continue meditating here, will your parents not be hit again?"

Maqiushan was said by Aunt Agui, so he could only forcefully say: "When meditating, the focus is on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and people can always be quiet..."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! ‘Don’t chant scriptures with me here. I will ask you, your own heart is pure, can your parents be purified? Have you ever thought about it for your parents? They don’t say it, but what will they think in their hearts? Wouldn’t they be sad? Wouldn’t they be stimulated?’

Aunt Agui said, "I tell you, what I mean is that you might as well make trouble for a while, toss your career, toss others, and to be like a personal one, so that your parents will not worry about you becoming a monk."

Aunt Agui believes that escaping cannot solve the problem. If Maqiushan wants to solve the problem, he must think about the problem from the perspective of his parents. Then he starts to use his own experience to reason with his own children. Although they do not come back often, they are actually very filial. When they call back, they always report good news but not bad news, and do not want to worry about them. In fact, how could Aunt Agui and others not worry about their children, but they just don’t want their children to delay their own development because of them. Parents are like this. Even if they love their children and miss their children, they still need to consider the long-term development of their children.

When Maqiushan was enlightened by Aunt Agui, he suddenly became enlightened. Since he started his own business, don’t think about failure. Instead, he should think about how to succeed so that his parents don’t have to worry.

On the third day, Zhao Shucheng finally returned from Shenzhen by plane.

After Xu Hongdou learned about Zhao Shucheng's return, she took a bus to the airport and prepared to pick Zhao Shucheng up.

This was something Zhao Shucheng didn't expect, so after leaving the airport, he was about to take a taxi when he saw Xu Hongdou standing at the exit with a smile.

"Hongdou, why are you here?"

"Of course I'm here to pick you up."

After hearing this, Zhao Shucheng gave Xu Hongdou a big hug and said, "Why, I haven't seen me for only a few days, I just missed me like that. Should I say that you haven't seen each other for a day, like three autumns?"

Xu Hongdou gently hit Zhao Shucheng and said, "She is so stinky. By the way, you didn't bring us a gift when you went out?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "There is no gift. I'm not on a trip. I can't prepare any gifts. But I don't really bring anything. What do you think is this?"

Xu Hongdou saw the gift in Zhao Shucheng's hand, was stunned for a moment and said, "I can't ask for this."

Zhao Shucheng saw Xu Hongdou's expression and said with a smile: "What are you thinking? Even if I really plan to propose to you, I will not be in such an occasion or a place. This is just a necklace, and I think it is very suitable for you, so open it and take a look."

When Xu Hongdou heard Zhao Shucheng say this, she breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt that she was also a little disappointed.

"I'll see this when I go back. By the way, is the homestay going well?"

"It's all going well. The contract has been signed and the money has been paid to the boss. So now the homestay is mine, and I am the boss."

Zhao Shucheng said, holding Xu Hongdou's hand and said, "By the way, how did you come? Should we take a taxi back?"

"No need, I rented a car and we'll drive back."

"That's good, let's go and talk slowly on the road."

"good!"

Xu Hongdou looked at Zhao Shucheng who was driving and said, "You don't know. When you didn't come back, Ma Ye was not as steady as before. Instead, he often asked me when you would be back."

Zhao Shucheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Is that so, why don't I know? He didn't call me, I thought you were just anxious to ask me to come back."

"Who is worried about you? But Mr. Ma should be really anxious. He heard that his business start-up has been almost done, and the investors have already taken their seats. It seems that as long as you sign the contract, he will be ready to start running a tea shop."

Zhao Shucheng said: "It shouldn't be that fast. After all, Ma Ye still has a shortage of funds. He has to wait until his funds are in place before he can officially start a business."

"Ah? The problem of funds is not solved. Isn't it enough money you invest and the investors' money?"

"Enough is enough, but physical entrepreneurship cannot all rely on investors' money, and they must invest some of the funds themselves. What Ma Ye needs to solve is his own investment capital problem. This is not a problem that investors and I can help solve."
