Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371: Chapter 371: Targeting Xiyang Food Factory

Lin Chuxia watched the old couple’s performance with happiness in her heart.

A family should be just like that — not stingy with praise and admiration, giving timely affirmation.

She noticed that in many families, even though the spouse and children are one’s closest people,

As soon as one makes a mistake, it is pointed out almost immediately, and even a small mistake can lead to endless nagging and fuss.

Meanwhile, the efforts and contributions of the other person are overlooked.

What a family needs, after all, is devoted care and more giving.

The sound of hurried footsteps came from outside, and Little Zhuangzhuang ran in with his backpack on.

Seeing the look of surprise on Lin Chuxia’s face.

Then looking at Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin, he loudly asked, "Grandpa, Grandma, are you both wearing new clothes to visit relatives? Are you going to Auntie’s house? I want to go too, I want to go too."

Last time when mom, dad, grandpa, and grandma went to Auntie’s house without him, they left him to have lunch at Uncle’s. He couldn’t be left behind this time.

"No," Lin Chuxia replied smilingly while patting his little head, "Your grandpa and grandma are just trying on new clothes. There’s also a new piece of clothing here for Zhuangzhuang, do you want to try it on now?"

"Yes."

Kids love new clothes and new toys the most.

Lin Chuxia helped Zhuangzhuang put on the new clothes and gave him some tasty treats, the little guy was now overjoyed, having completely forgotten the incident last time when the family left him behind to go to the city.

For lunch, they stewed pork ribs in an iron pot, adding vermicelli, potatoes, and green beans, even sticking a circle of white dough rolls on the edge of the pot – delicious enough to make one’s tongue melt.

Little Zhuangzhuang gnawed his bones clean and still looked regretful, "Yuan Bao isn’t home, what a waste of bones."

Mr. Qin snorted, "If you’re worried about waste, chew on them. Children have strong teeth."

Zhuangzhuang glared with dissatisfaction, "Grandpa, I have human teeth, not dog teeth; don’t trick me."

With a tone still tinged with a childlike lisp, the whole family was amused and laughed.

In the afternoon, Lin Chuxia went to Xiyang Food Factory.

Each month, the food factory and the bun shops would still report their finances to Lin Chuxia.

Looking at the accounts for the past two months, both the food factory and the bun shop are operating normally and even growing steadily.

Especially the food factory, where the order volume is expanding repeatedly, with a stable monthly turnover increase of about 20%.

When she arrived, the sales department was reporting to Su Wensong, and she waited by the side for a while. After the person left, Su Wensong repeated the situation to her.

"The several sales channels we just mentioned were originally from the old food factory. After we invested in the beef sauce production line, we have taken over quite a few of their sales channels. It’s not that we intentionally took their business, but that’s how the market is now; the people’s tastes are the referees. Whichever products taste good and are cheaper, everyone has a clear scale in their hearts."

The implementation of policy liberalization, transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy, Su Wensong anticipated would be an opportunity for them, but he didn’t expect the transition would go so smoothly.

Lin Chuxia had long seen through this, "That’s why I say the market opening is an opportunity for individual enterprises like us. If it were before, the sales points would have all been allocated already, where would there be a share for us."

Su Wensong also laughed along, "Sometimes when I think about the past, it feels like a dream. In just a few years, the market rules that have been maintained for decades have been broken. I just fear that one day if another policy comes down, restoring the old system, if that really happens, us individual enterprises will be stuck in a tight spot for survival."

"That won’t happen," Lin Chuxia was utterly certain of this, "Once the market economy has opened up and people have adapted to the market, it’s impossible to go back to a planned economy – human nature simply won’t allow it."
