Reborn in 1981, starting by smashing my iron rice bowl.

In his previous life, Liu Weidong had heard that Wei Wanqing's husband, Zhou Zhenyu, was a high school teacher in the city. However, their relationship was not good, and they divorced in the mid-1980s.

At that time, divorce was a big deal, and it was the talk of the town. Some said Wei Wanqing had an affair with her business partner, while others said Zhou Zhenyu had a mistress.

However, not long after their divorce, Zhou Zhenyu was imprisoned for molesting his female student, and the rumors related to Wei Wanqing gradually subsided.

After his release from prison, Zhou Zhenyu relied entirely on Wei Wanqing's charity. However, instead of being grateful, he conspired with several of Wei Wanqing's unscrupulous business partners to ruthlessly swindle her. As a result, they ruined the company, and no one knows what became of Wei Wanqing in the end.

Now Liu Weidong also knows that Wei Wanqing and Zhou Zhenyu's relationship was already very tense in 81, otherwise Zhou Zhenyu wouldn't have even stopped visiting his father-in-law's house for the Spring Festival.

When the topic turned to his daughter and her husband, Wei Guohui was somewhat helpless. He frowned and waved his hand, saying, "Let's not talk about such unpleasant things during the New Year. Let's talk about something happy!"

Wei Wanqing was finally happy. She leaned back on the sofa armrest, put her arm around Wei Guohui's shoulder, and said, "Dad still cares about me the most!"

These days, parents aren't used to being so affectionate with their children, especially when there are other people around. Yang Jianying quickly frowned and said, "You're so old and you're still acting like an adult. There are guests here. What kind of behavior is this? Sit down properly!"

"Oh!" Wei Wanqing reluctantly agreed and sat down on the chair next to her, but deliberately winked at Liu Weidong to show her dissatisfaction with her mother.

The mature and elegant woman suddenly made such a playful little move, which added a touch of cuteness to her appearance.

To be honest, Liu Weidong, who had lived two lives, quite admired Wei Wanqing's straightforward and passionate personality. Being with someone so frank would be easy for both parties.

Yang Jianying prepared a sumptuous meal, and Wei Guohui had his daughter open a bottle of Moutai that Liu Weidong had brought. They enjoyed their dinner together in a harmonious atmosphere.

Even at the dinner table, Wei Guohui couldn't stop praising Liu Weidong, earnestly telling his daughter, "Look at Weidong, he's a few years younger than you, yet he's so steady and reliable in his work, much better than you, so impulsive!"

Liu Weidong never expected that he would one day become "someone else's child," and quickly smiled and said, "Teacher, you flatter me. Actually, I'm nothing special."

"Look, he's still very humble!" Wei Guohui added another advantage to Liu Weidong's reputation.

Wei Wanqing was even more indignant now. She deliberately made things difficult for Liu Weidong, staring at him and saying, word by word, "I also want to start a business. What do you think... given the current environment, what would be a suitable business?"

The fact that this strong woman was actually testing him made Liu Weidong secretly amused, but he remained outwardly calm and said, "That depends on how much you plan to invest, Senior Sister."

Wei Wanqing hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth: "The most I can come up with is 250,000!"

Although Liu Weidong already knew that Wei Wanqing's business was very successful, he was still shocked when he heard this number. This was 250,000 yuan in 1981! In an era when even a household with 10,000 yuan could make the newspapers, it was definitely not a small amount.

Given the current uncertain economic climate, Wei Wanqing's willingness to invest so much money is truly admirable. No wonder she will become a well-known and successful businesswoman in the future.

Since Wei Wanqing was so frank, Liu Weidong didn't intend to hide anything from her. After considering it for a moment, he said in a deep voice, "If you have this much investment, my suggestion is to go into the clothing industry."

Wei Wanqing was not like Wang Shujuan, who blindly obeyed Liu Weidong. Upon hearing this, she immediately asked, "Why?"

After saying this, Wei Wanqing realized that her tone was too harsh, and quickly explained to Liu Weidong, "I don't doubt your judgment, but 250,000 is not a small amount, so I have to ask for clarification."

Liu Weidong nodded in understanding and began to analyze for Wei Wanqing: "First of all, we need to understand that the biggest advantage at this stage is cheap labor, so labor-intensive industries like garment factories are more suitable for investment..."

Next, Liu Weidong analyzed the situation from several aspects to prove that his judgment was correct. These were conclusions drawn by many people in his previous life after conducting research, and they were very convincing. Not only was Wei Wanqing completely convinced, but even Wei Guohui nodded repeatedly in agreement.

After Liu Weidong finished speaking, Wei Wanqing said with admiration, "What you said makes a lot of sense. It seems I should really consider this industry."

Liu Weidong then advised Wei Wanqing: "I suggest you go to Hong Kong Island when you have time, buy some trendy clothes there, and make your own. Young people these days love fashion more and more, so trendy clothes will definitely be popular!"

Wei Guohui said, "Wei Dong is right. Young people nowadays are starting to pay attention to the style of their clothes. Like what he's wearing... a ski jacket, which is very popular right now!"

Wei Wanqing nodded and said, "That's right. Okay, I'll go and check out the factory and sewing machines in a few days and try to get the garment factory up and running as soon as possible!"

"Senior sister, you have such great courage!" Liu Weidong clapped lightly and said confidently, "Trust me, you're right, the clothing industry has unlimited potential, and you will definitely achieve great things!"

Liu Weidong was so certain because he knew that Wei Wanqing had built her fortune in the clothing industry in her previous life. Therefore, at this time when this successful businesswoman was preparing to enter the business world, advising her to return to her old profession was definitely the right thing to do!

"Junior brother, thank you for your kind words. Senior sister toasts you!" Wei Wanqing nodded, picked up the wine glass in front of her, and drank it all in one gulp.

This glass of wine contained at least an ounce or more. Wei Wanqing drank so much baijiu in one go that her cheeks quickly turned rosy, making her appear even more beautiful and charming.

The future businesswoman was clearly a little drunk. She leaned closer to Liu Weidong and said with a smile, "Junior brother, I actually think your sunflower seed business is doing quite well. How about... we partner up and continue this business?"

Wei Wanqing's cold and beautiful face was so close that he could even smell her faint fragrance, which made Liu Weidong's heart flutter.

Fortunately, Liu Weidong, who had lived two lives, quickly came to his senses and moved back a little to keep his distance from the beautiful older woman. Then he said with a smile, "It's no big deal. Senior, if you want to start a sunflower seed business, it's easy. I'll write down the seasoning recipe for you later, and you can find someone to make it according to it!"

Since Liu Weidong wasn't planning on selling melon seeds anymore, he simply gave the recipe to Wei Wanqing, hoping to use this opportunity to improve their relationship.

However, before Wei Wanqing could express her opinion, Wei Guohui said in a deep voice, "No!"
