To resign or not to resign

  Resign or not resign

  Chen Haosheng rarely hesitated in his life.

  But this time hesitated for a month and still couldn't make up his mind.

  Resigning to start a business is easy to say but hard to do. Only those who are irresponsible or have no sense of responsibility would make it sound simple. Chen Huasheng and Peng Hua, when sharing their experiences with graduates, began by warning them not to be misled by various success stories, as geniuses are rare. "If you're really a genius, you wouldn't need a graduation certificate. Who knows, maybe 20 years later you'll be China's Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Alan Schwartz, or Michael Dell? They all dropped out of college. Don't tell me you didn't know that Oracle and K...".

  Now it's her turn to shoot herself in the foot: she surprisingly can't make up her mind to quit and start her own company.

  !

  This might be the reason why most women who start their own businesses are divorced. In their 20s, at the best age for marriage, they get married and then spend all their time revolving around their elders, husbands, and children. They need to get approval from their husbands, mothers-in-law, and even kids before doing anything - it's almost impossible to start a business, of course, except for opening a small shop to earn money for groceries and picking up the kids on the way.

  Both housing and business expansion require cash, but banks only do icing on the cake, let alone sending charcoal in snowy weather, it's already good not to fall into a well. As for private fundraising, it is not considered at all, because she can't even confirm whether it will succeed or not, let alone high interest rates. She needs to accumulate cash now! Otherwise, the company's house needs to be mortgaged, and her husband's house is not suitable...

  She readjusted the product line, removing several products and sets that were not profitable, and made a batch of high-end handmade soaps. She also launched two Mediterranean series and two Chinese-Western fusion series. Additionally, she sent a bunch of things for research, testing, and approval...

  Pang Hua noticed her anxiety over the past few months, especially at night. Sometimes she was very cold, and sometimes she was unusually enthusiastic, even taking the initiative to provoke him.

  Fortunately, the annual financial data and actual cash outflows were unexpectedly good, and the company's commercial loan can finally be repaid in advance! As a result, the revolving loan amount for working capital under the internet has increased significantly, and she can solve the cash turnover problem brought by the distribution of nanometer beauty needles and sportswear! The only downside is that the company continues to lose money. Fortunately, banks, tax authorities, and e-commerce platforms have no objections to this. In addition, the accumulated income from legal services also looks acceptable.

  Her anxiety and irritability improved significantly, and she even started to agree with Pang Hua and her parents' attempts to test her.

  Pang Hua hasn't used a condom for some time. Chen Xuan doesn't care about safety either.

  But she didn't get pregnant.

  "Let's just go with the flow. Before that, why don't you spend more time with kids and learn how to take care of them?" Chen Hua suggested somewhat reluctantly.

  Pang Hua wasn't actually thinking about the kid all day, because previously Chen Xiao Sheng had forced him to help take care of a distant cousin's three-year-old child for half a day.

  The words are unclear, but the temper is very strong and stubborn. It took almost two hours to finish lunch! As a result, when it was past 2 pm, the child woke up and couldn't find her beloved mom and obedient grandma anywhere, she was very unhappy. Suddenly, she insisted on going to see the big and small animals, which made the two men of similar age almost cry out loud.

  "Alright, no need to force it." He was scared to death by that little kid - not a little angel, but a little devil! So he became more concerned with safety issues during this period, and then swung back and forth between the child and peaceful life. It seemed like Chen Huacheng had transferred his anxiety disorder to him.

  Raising a child is really, really troublesome. Once you have one, it's impossible to go on vacation for at least five or six years.

  "Why? You can just take it away!"

  "Because children at this age are very active and curious, they are easily kidnapped or get into traffic accidents. They don't know how to look both ways when crossing the street and can't remember various safety precautions. They also can't control their volume and will scream with excitement regardless of whether it's appropriate or not. If they see something fun in a crowded place, they'll run off without holding an adult's hand. Then they get lost and if they're lucky someone helps them find their parents. If they're unlucky, they get lost."

  "......Well, going to Greece was a bit far last year," and "it cost too much money." "Why don't we go somewhere else for Spring Festival this year?"

  “……good.” No wonder he's a science student, his mind works too fast, suddenly jumping to vacation and play, “Now booking plane tickets and train tickets is not possible, popular ones can't be bought, unpopular ones are also full price——just drive out yourself.”

  "Okay, anywhere is fine, as long as there's air conditioning and I won't get diarrhea from eating."

  "Hmm, what's your suggestion?"

  "Hmm... Zuo Zhixuan actually suggested we go to Beijing. Anyway, the high-speed rail is very fast."

  "That's also a good idea. Have you been to the Forbidden City?"

  "No."

  The Great Wall?

  "Hmm, I think I've been there for a day or two when I was little, visiting relatives, don't remember much, seems like I went to a park, but it shouldn't be the Temple of Heaven."

  "Poor kid." Chen Huan touched his face, as if she didn't even think about where they hadn't been. "Let's go to the capital city then."

  “! You go online and book a place near the subway station. That city is too big, taxis are chaotic, buses are unfamiliar, and subways are more convenient.”

  And after discussing with both sets of parents - mainly the Chen family - they decided that during the Spring Festival holiday, the two would take a break and go to Beijing.

  Chen's parents didn't object anyway, and in a few months their daughter would bring back all sorts of cute little things or food, clothing, and daily necessities. Besides, what they were looking forward to now was having a grandson, preferably two, best of all would be a granddaughter with the surname Chen...

  Of course, another advantage of traveling during the Spring Festival is that it solves the problem of where to have dinner on New Year's Eve.

  Online store, physical store, during the Spring Festival only accepted orders and did not ship. A large batch of goods required by the clubhouse was also resolved. This is thanks to a newly recruited worker-student. The boy's level of responding to customers is not very good, but his "craftsmanship" is excellent. He helped Chen Huasheng solve a lot of handmade work and even proposed improvement suggestions for two products.

  Pang Hua was a bit skeptical that this kid wanted to steal the master's skills in order to open his own store later. Chen Xiao smiled and let it go, she could survive and even do well in the e-commerce wave where many others were falling, not because of how good she did, but because of her ideas and constant innovation. Moreover, the profit from beauty products now only accounts for about 40% of the company's total profit, while the resale and agency operations are relatively stable, and the growth of private label goods is the fastest - but the pressure on operators is also greater, because if they stop slightly in new products, they will be ruthlessly forgotten and eliminated.

  On the high-speed train, Chen Huasheng was writing promotional copy and new product suggestions while chatting, and at the same time, he was answering consultations on his mobile phone: "This year will be profitable. Although wages have doubled and financial expenses have increased significantly, sales and profits have indeed increased significantly."

  Two part-time customer service staff did not come to work in the office, but rather worked online from their own places. Chen Haosheng thought they were good and recommended another store owner who needed part-time customer service staff.

  "We can consider renting a place that is a bit bigger and has a suitable price." We have already been contacted by some business people.

  "It's not necessary. Unless we take over some production departments or a large number of agency outlets, because at that time, many business and specialized IT, art, finance... would be needed. Only then would it look like a company."

  "Isn't it too exhausting?"

  "So, I'll just maintain the status quo. As long as I'm happy, that's all that matters. If I make more money but age faster and my body deteriorates earlier, it's not worth it." She doesn't want to die before she's fifty! "Yeah, and there's also the option of quitting my job, but I haven't made up my mind yet."

  。”

  "Haha, lawyer, just sounds very powerful, and everyone will naturally not dare to cheat too much." Pang Hua was not only once teased by people with a mix of envy and sympathy for marrying an old wife who is not afraid of divorce.

  "Hmm, just introducing it like this can save a lot of trouble." There were also other collaborators who made additional requests for her to issue service invoices from her own studio to replace the sales invoices issued by the company. Although it was a loss, sometimes in order to help with personal relationships, she had no choice but to nod and accept it.

  "I also save a lot of effort." As soon as I mention going home to ask for the opinion of my lawyer wife, the other party often changes their mind.

  "Yes, so I hesitated and decided to become an assistant in my field of expertise." Her workload was heavy, but not to the point of overwork, especially since she would occasionally return home, take a vacation, or visit her mother-in-law with many Mid-Autumn Festival gifts and travel souvenirs - her mother-in-law's indifference didn't matter, as her father-in-law appreciated her more than the beautiful girlfriend of the eldest son of the Pang family. As for the messy affairs outside of the Pang family marriage, they had nothing to do with her!

  Until the electricity for the computer was cut off, the two people had a clear plan for this year's business adjustment. Apart from work, it was confirmed that the company would no longer pay his rent starting this year - firstly because issuing invoices for this is costly, secondly because he now has a salary and basic living expenses are guaranteed, thirdly because after all, with the two getting married, this transaction is becoming less reasonable, what kind of wife opens a company and rents her husband's house while paying a large amount of rent?

  "I will definitely make a profit this year." This is almost certain, unless they suddenly decide to buy real estate - buying involves paying taxes, depreciation and a lot of trouble, and selling also involves more taxes and transaction costs, it's really not as good as renting. "As long as you don't rent a large office."

  She checked the sales situation on her phone again, and it was quite good. In her impression, the promotional activities of Singles' Day are expanding more and more, so she might as well start preparing now to avoid not being able to take out goods that can be greatly discounted at that time. Moreover, there were many high-end products with import, inspection and production cycles close to half a year.

  "Huh? The Greek company actually agreed."

  "That Chinese-run restaurant?"

  Otherwise, there's really no way to communicate.

  “……”

  Two people, one with a suitcase and the other with a backpack, walked in the opposite direction of the large crowd. Travel is indeed like this: from where you are tired of staying to where others are tired of staying.
