Chapter 362 - Chapter 362 Chapter 361 Fate Plays Tricks on People

Chapter 362: Chapter 361: Fate Plays Tricks on People Chapter 362: Chapter 361: Fate Plays Tricks on People Wang Tianfu moved a chair, and after the family elder had sat down, he said, “I was thinking, while I am still somewhat healthy, why not gather everyone together, get to know each other better? That skit last night said it well, you blink, and a day goes by. Don’t blink, and a lifetime goes by. Now at my age, who knows how many years I have left, but I don’t care much. However, I was just thinking, the Wang family has so many people, the older ones are pretty much set in their ways, no point in trying to change them. But the younger ones, where there are many, there will inevitably be some who succeed and some who don’t. Today, I actually just want the children to talk about how they are doing, to better support each other, am I right?”

Hearing the family elder speak like this, the crowd immediately began to comment–

“The elder is really looking ahead, this is good!”

“Yes, those who are doing well should definitely help those who are lagging a bit, that’s what family is for, it should be like this!”

“Absolutely, our family Mingfu is particularly worried about finding a job right now, if anyone has some connections, help him out, even if it’s just an introduction, it would be a good thing!”

“Yes, yes, this is the right way!”

Soon the whole courtyard was abuzz with quiet discussions, and once everyone had spoken, the family elder continued, “So, today I take the liberty, children, everyone sit down and talk about how you are doing. Don’t be shy, we are all actual relatives here, should help out as much as we can.”

Having said this, the youngest generation of Wang Hao and his peers promptly took their seats.

Wang Mingjing was the first to step forward, smiling, “I’ll go first, set an example for everyone!”

This was interesting, and the crowd applauded!

Wang Mingjing said, “I am currently working at a high school in DQ County as the Dean of Academic Affairs. I can’t boast too much, but if anyone wants to send their kids to my school, I can definitely take good care of them!” He, being the dean of academic affairs at a high school, certainly had some power. As soon as the relatives heard this, they all nodded and murmured among themselves–

“Yes, that’s indeed good, having someone looking out for you in school will definitely benefit their studies. When our children reach high school age, we can send them there.”

“That’s true, nowadays if you don’t know someone in the school system, it’s difficult to get things done, this is good!”

After his introduction, the great-grandfather continually nodded and smiled, “Yes, good, Ming Jing has a bright future, and in the future, whoever has things they need help with can feel free to ask him.”

Wang Hao also listened and nodded silently; Brother Ming Jing was doing well!

With Wang Mingjing taking the lead, it was now time for the young people of the Wang family to showcase themselves.

First was a cousin from Wang Hao’s great-grandfather’s side, named Wang Mingqiu, 23 years old, who stood up and introduced, “I am in my final year of university, studying mechanical design, and in two months, I am preparing for an internship. After the internship, it’s about finding a job and a partner, and if anyone has suitable job opportunities, I hope you can introduce me. Of course, introducing a partner would be even better, hehe.”

“Yes, he’s about to enter society, he should indeed prepare well,” said Wang Hao’s second cousin, taking notes. This was a clan meeting, and the family elder took this gathering very seriously, mainly focusing on supporting these young people, not risking neglect.

Wang Hao made a mental note to himself to introduce him to suitable girls or jobs in the future; for him, it was just a small effort. But for his cousin Mingqiu, it could potentially decide his future.

Next, there were a few more brothers and cousins talking about their current endeavors, some working in catering as waiters, some in entertainment singing in bars, and even one doing pet grooming; all sorts of careers.

These were generally doing well, not wealthy but definitely not struggling.

Soon, it was Wang Mingqing’s turn, he got up, scratched his head, and laughed, “I’m doing alright, currently flipping goods at the Tianli second-hand market in Zhonghai City, if anyone wants to buy some good second-hand home appliances in the future, or has something to dispose of, you can come to me, I’ll make sure you get the best price!”

With that said, everyone laughed, and someone asked, “Mingqing, working in Zhonghai City doing this, how much do you earn a month?” “Exactly, Zhonghai is a big city, I heard it’s profitable!”

“I’m doing okay,” Wang Mingqing replied modestly, though inwardly he felt quite proud, “I make about ten thousand a month, just getting by. Zhonghai is an expensive place, haha.”

Ten thousand a month!

For many relatives present, this was a significant figure they were discussing. Many exclaimed, “Look, Ming Qing has really made it big! He’s earning over ten thousand a month!” “It’s the big cities that offer growth opportunities!” “Ming Qing, if you are ever short of staff, just give us a shout, okay?”

“No problem, absolutely no problem!” Wang Mingqing quickly sat down and said, “If anyone really can’t find a job, coming over to my place for some temp work is definitely possible!”

Everyone burst into laughter.

After Wang Mingqing, it was Wang Mingjie’s turn. He stood up, bowed to everyone, and then smiled, “I’ll be brief. I’m not that capable. Just the other day, I went to Zhonghai to look for a job. Initially, I asked Brother Hao about it, and Brother Hao recommended me for an apprenticeship. But then I thought, I’m already nineteen, I’d be married with children back in the village. I need to make money first. So I talked to my Brother Tianli, and he offered me a job in his restaurant chopping vegetables, earning four thousand a month, heh.”

Hearing his humorous take, many laughed and commented, “Yes, making money is the right way to go!” “Correct, money in hand is what counts!”

“Brother Hao,” said Wang Mingjie after finishing, giving Wang Hao a sheepish smile, “Sorry about that, Brother Hao, I’m at that age, don’t take it to heart.”

“Ah, it’s fine,” Wang Hao didn’t mind and laughed, “You need to start earning money, and since you didn’t go, I just recommended Ming Bo instead. It’s all the same, we’re family. We should look after each other.”

This was really just an appetizer. The mood among the crowd had already picked up considerably, and soon it was Wang Tianfu’s turn to introduce himself.

“I’m currently the Head of the Planting Department at the Forestry Bureau in the XY District of Zhonghai, overseeing the flower and sapling industry work,” stated Wang Tianfu, standing with pride as he pushed his glasses, speaking confidently and smiling, “If anyone needs anything related to forestry, like buying saplings to plant, feel free to contact me.” He then went on to mention the projects he was responsible for, including garden planting and sapling purchases. After finishing his introduction, Wang Tianfu bowed to everyone, his face carrying a confident smile as he slowly sat down.

Hearing that Wang Tianfu was now the head of the Planting Department in the Forestry Bureau of Zhonghai City, faces around him were full of envy. “Wow, that’s impressive, he’s a department head!” “Yes, he’s an official civil servant, truly something else!”

Listening to the murmurs of envy from the crowd, Wang Tianfu appeared somewhat proud, and next up was his good brother, Wang Tianshi.

“I’m currently working in a foreign-capital company,” Wang Tianshi stood up and smiled, “It’s called Alpai Electronics (Heavenly People’s Republic) Limited, mainly handling human resources. If any of our younger siblings and cousins are really struggling to find a job, I can arrange something, like a logistics position, to at least ensure you have food and shelter every month.”

As soon as they heard Wang Tianshi was managing human resources at a foreign-capital company, everyone was stunned!

After all, in their minds, to work at a foreign-capital company made one truly impressive!

“Wow! Listen to that, look where he’s at now, a foreign-capital company!”

“What’s human resources about?”

“That you don’t know? Human resources handle stuff like staff transfers. Just wait for our children to graduate from university. We’ll get them in touch with Tianshi directly, and that will work out great!”

“Not surprising, he’s got a postgraduate degree, that’s different!”

Listening to the quiet discussions among the relatives around him, Wang Tianshi suddenly glanced at Wang Hao through the crowd.

Sigh, back in the day, Haoer and he were both considered the future hopes of the young generation of the Wang family. Everyone used to praise his intelligence, but now, he himself had become the Director of Human Resources at a foreign-capital company, while Haoer had achieved nothing besides bragging.

With a soft sigh, Wang Tianshi could only shake his head helplessly.

His own future was boundless, and he was no longer on the same level as Wang Hao. Fate was indeed unpredictable.
