Chapter 271: In a Dilemma
After discussing with Wei Wushang the rough plan of opening affordable dining shops in each city within Daxia’s borders, Yuan Yindi once again found himself in a state of depression.
The plan was good, but the problem was, he had no one to use.
"Dad, do you think I should call in my eldest brother and fourth brother?"
From the heart, Yuan Yindi really did not want his two brothers to get involved in this matter.
Although they were blood brothers and had a good relationship, such business, once family members are involved, if anything goes wrong and interests are involved, it would be really difficult to manage.
But now, he had no one available.
It wouldn’t do to rely on Wei Wushang for everything. In this way, Yuan Yindi would really feel embarrassed to take the 40% share.
"This matter, you decide for yourself; I won’t make the decision for you!"
Hearing Yuan Yindi’s question, Old Yuan tossed him a big side-eye.
As an old man over fifty, what hasn’t Old Yuan seen?
"Dad, this is our family’s big business. We can’t rely on others to handle everything, can we?"
"At least give some advice, old man!"
Yuan Yindi actually knew that it was a bit difficult to consult with his father. But indeed, he had no other way. Coming to discuss this matter with his father already indicated his intention to have his eldest and fourth brothers help.
However, to prevent any future conflicts between brothers, Yuan Yindi approached his father hoping Old Yuan could act as a notary.
Some things are better to be agreed on beforehand to avoid chaos later.
"You’ve already got an idea, and still come to ask me?"
Old Yuan, not in a good mood, gave his youngest son a glance, waved his hand disdainfully, and said, "Alright, go ahead with what you think. At that time, I’ll come and notarize the matter for you."
"Dad, I knew you wouldn’t ignore me!"
Yuan Yindi chuckled, quickly making his exit.
...
Because this matter was significant, Yuan Yindi naturally rushed to Beishan Village at the first opportunity.
By this time, summer had set in, and the farm work in the fields was mostly done.
Mrs. Li had returned to Beishan Village half a month earlier. Although her injury from the fall had not completely healed, it was basically not a problem. She could still cook and tidy up the house.
After all, with the busy farming season, she must ensure logistics for Yuan Pandi.
During her time living in the city, Mrs. Li truly experienced what is called a good life.
No need to cook, no housework to do, and she could order the little maid around if something was needed.
Returning from the city to the village in these days, Mrs. Li really struggled to adjust. Unfortunately, Yuan Pandi was busy with the work in the fields and had no time or energy to chat with her.
When Yuan Yindi suddenly came from the city, Mrs. Li’s eyes lit up.
"Xiao Wu, you came rushing over, is something the matter?"
Mrs. Li brought a bowl of water to Yuan Yindi and spoke with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, there’s something I need to discuss with my eldest brother!"
"Then wait a moment; your eldest brother just went to the vegetable field and will be back soon!"
Upon hearing Mrs. Li’s words, Yuan Yindi took a sip of water, stood up, and said, "Alright, I’ll first go see Fourth Brother. By the way, is my Fourth Brother home?"
"Shouldn’t have gone out!"
Mrs. Li thought for a moment; indeed, she hadn’t seen Yuan Zhaodi go out.
Yuan Yindi then bid farewell to Mrs. Li and headed out towards Yuan Zhaodi and Mrs. Xiao Li’s house.
Yuan Zhaodi hadn’t gone out; he was lying on the kang resting in his house.
