After being reborn, the school beauty's entire family knelt down to repent.

Chen Ming sneered, the cold faces of these relatives clamoring to withdraw their shares flashing through his mind.

At that time, coal prices in Shanxi dropped, and these people avoided him like the plague, fearing that he would bring them bad luck.

Now that his career has started to improve, they flock to him, each one as enthusiastic as if they've become a different person.

These people don't genuinely want to help him; they're clearly just trying to take advantage of him and make a quick buck!

Nothing is that cheap!

He said coldly, "I do not look down on any of you."

He glanced at everyone, his tone still icy, "It's just that before, everyone said they wanted to withdraw their shares, and now you want to reinvest. If you lose money and then want your money back, I can't guarantee that I won't take that risk."

He looked at everyone and continued,

"Moreover, I plan to partner with my eldest uncle, second uncle, and second maternal uncle."

He paused for a moment, then added.

"We have enough manpower to expand production scale for now."

"So, I appreciate everyone's kindness."

He nodded slightly to show respect, "and I ask for your understanding as well."

The current production scale is simply insufficient to meet the ever-growing market demand.

Expanding production is now an urgent matter.

Rather than letting those greedy relatives get a share, it's better to put in the money yourself.

Find a few truly trustworthy relatives to partner with, build an even larger factory, and expand production.

This way, market demand can be met while maintaining control over the company.

Seeing Chen Ming's resolute attitude, these people's faces turned ashen, like wilted eggplants.

"They don't know what's good for them. Once they become successful, they look down on their poor relatives."

"They've really grown up and forgotten their own name."

You'll regret this one day!

"Hmph, you've become capable and forgotten your roots, what a piece of trash!"

Seeing the situation becoming increasingly chaotic, Chen Ming stepped forward, his face icy cold.

"enough!"

"I didn't say anything when you withdrew your shares."

"Things seem to be looking up now, I want to come back..."

"Sorry, our little temple can't serve you!"

The moment those words were spoken, the whispers vanished instantly.

Seeing Chen Ming's resolute attitude, the crowd hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly dispersed.

......

After seeing off those vampire-like relatives, Chen Ming breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling as if the world had finally quieted down.

He rubbed his throbbing temples, a wave of exhaustion washing over him.

However, now is not the time to rest; expanding production is the top priority.

He suddenly stood up, strode towards the door, and decided to immediately go to his uncle to discuss the cooperation.

As Chen Ming walked along the road, he pondered how to discuss cooperation with his eldest uncle, second uncle, and second maternal uncle.

He first went to his second uncle's house and called him over. Then, they went together to his second maternal uncle's house and brought him along.

When I arrived at my uncle's house, it looked just as familiar as I remembered.

The yard was filled with all kinds of vegetables, a lush green expanse full of life.

Chen Ming pushed open the half-closed courtyard gate and went inside. He immediately saw his uncle busy in the vegetable garden.

"Uncle!" Chen Ming greeted him warmly. The uncle looked up, saw Chen Ming, and a smile spread across his face.

"Why are the three of you here together? Come in and sit down."

Chen Ming followed his uncle into the house, and they sat around the table drinking tea and chatting.

Chen Ming took a sip of tea and spoke calmly.

"Uncle, Second Uncle, Second Uncle, I've come today to discuss with you the matter of expanding production."

The uncle put down his teacup, somewhat taken aback: "Expand production? What's your idea?"

"The factory is receiving more and more orders, and the current production scale can no longer keep up. I want to build a larger factory, add new equipment, and expand the production scale."

"Mingzi, are you really going to expand production?" Uncle rubbed his hands together excitedly, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

"This is fantastic news!"

Hearing what his eldest uncle said, the second uncle excitedly chimed in, "Yes, Mingzi, you're really something! You've made the factory so successful in such a short time, that's truly remarkable!"

"Our Chen family is finally going to produce a great person! From now on, we can hold our heads high when we go out!"

Uncle patted his chest excitedly. "Mingzi, go for it! I will absolutely support you with all my might! Even if I have to sell everything I own, I will support you!"

As he spoke, he took out a cloth bag from his pocket, carefully opened it, revealing a thick wad of banknotes inside.

"This is some savings I've accumulated over the years. It's not much, but you can take it and use it first. If it's not enough, I'll figure something out!"

When the eldest uncle saw the second uncle taking out money, he quickly pulled a cloth bag from his pocket as well.

Unfolding layer by layer, a stack of banknotes carefully bound with yarn was revealed inside.

Some of the small bills even had slight creases, showing how much my uncle cherished them.

"Mingzi, this is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it and don't be shy about it!"

My second uncle was no exception. He took out a slightly yellowed plastic bag from his inner pocket and carefully opened it.

Inside was a thick wad of cash, some new, some old, some in whole bills, some in small change, clearly accumulated over a long period of time.

Every single bill of this money is soaked with their sweat.

Uncle didn't have much money with him and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Mingzi, I don't have that much money on me. I'll get it for you when we get back!"

Chen Ming was deeply moved to see how supportive his three elders were of him.

"Mingzi, don't stand on ceremony with us!" Uncle grabbed Chen Ming's hand and said firmly.

"We're family, your problems are our problems! We all support you!"

"Yes, Mingzi, just take it!" Uncle Er chimed in, "Don't make us old folks worry!"

Chen Ming's second uncle shoved the money directly into his hand, saying without allowing any further discussion, "Mingzi, just take it! Don't let us down!"

He took a deep breath and said firmly, "Uncle, Second Uncle, Second Madam, thank you for your support! I will definitely work hard to make the factory bigger and stronger, and I won't let you down!"

Looking at the stack of banknotes on the table, Chen Ming felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

These banknotes are of varying ages and are a mixed collection of coins.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his excited emotions, his chest filled with gratitude.

Then, he slowly opened his mouth, his gaze sweeping over the three elders, and said earnestly, "Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, Second Maternal Uncle."

He paused, giving the three elders some time to process what he had said, before continuing, "How about we split it 50/50?"

The three elders were stunned upon hearing this. They looked at each other,

His expression shifted from confusion to shock; he didn't react for a moment.

They hadn't expected Chen Ming to be so generous.

"Mingzi, this...this won't do!" Uncle's wrinkled brows furrowed tightly, his lips trembling slightly.
