Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space

Chapter 1147: Chapter 1147: An Unexpected Dowry

After arriving at my own small transport company, I placed the candies on the office desk.

Jiang Wenbing, who helps manage the company affairs, walked over: "Brother He, are you bringing us wedding candies?"

He Jinxuan smiled and nodded: "I brought quite a lot, you all can share them later and take some home for the kids as a sweet treat. Remember to bring your families to the wedding banquet that day."

Jiang Wenbing laughingly poured He Jinxuan a glass of water: "Even if you didn’t say it, Brother He, we’d bring our families to congratulate you."

After that, people started coming in one after another, everyone greeting with smiles, making the office very lively for a while.

He Jinxuan saw that most people had arrived: "Everyone, please settle down, let’s talk business next."

Seeing everyone find a place to sit, he then began: "You should have heard the news that the factory next door is relocating. I’ve already hired someone to gather some intel on it.

If the price is right, I’m thinking of taking over the site. This way, as long as we tear down the wall in between, our space can more than double.

You also know our business has been pretty good lately. I plan to purchase three new Dongfeng trucks to take long-haul jobs.

Now, what I’m about to say is key. Getting new trucks obviously needs drivers, and I’m giving this opportunity to you. If you know of suitable candidates, feel free to introduce them.

Before the new trucks arrive, get skilled with driving first."

Upon hearing that, those present started to think. Someone asked, "Brother He, how many drivers are you planning to hire this time?"

He Jinxuan didn’t hide it: "I’ve already decided on two. For three trucks, we need to find six drivers."

Thinking of something, he continued seriously: "But let me make this clear: those who can’t bear hardships or are of questionable character, I don’t want them here."

Jiang Wenbing smilingly chimed in: "Don’t worry, Brother He, everyone understands the importance. We’ll definitely introduce hard-working and diligent people."

Having settled this, they discussed some matters about the fleet’s operations before everyone dispersed.

Don’t underestimate this small fleet of his; the work is genuinely plentiful. The few existing vehicles basically have no downtime. To keep pace with the times, the fleet’s scale will need to keep expanding.

The existing vehicles are mostly active in Beijing.

Now, with the network from his father-in-law, the An Family, plus his own connections, forming a long-haul fleet is imminent.

After finishing this business, he planned to take a trip to the Gu Family’s old house on the way.

What he didn’t expect was a surprise waiting for him.

When he arrived at the Gu Family, Han Jingchen and Gu Wanqing had just returned from handling matters and were sitting in the living room discussing the progress with the Gu elders.

Seeing He Jinxuan come in, Old Madam Gu smiled and waved him over: "Jinxuan, come sit over here, we just have something to discuss with you."

He Jinxuan smiled, approached, and skillfully took little brother-in-law Han Chaojun from Old Madam Gu’s arms before finding a place to sit: "Junjun has gotten a lot heavier lately."

Upon hearing about his grandson, Mr. Gu responded: "Indeed, yesterday I carried him to the grain station at the street corner to weigh him, and he’s almost twenty pounds now.

Looking at the little brother-in-law squirming in his arms, He Jinxuan had to stand up.

Then Gu Wanqing said: "Maybe it’s too hot these days, he’s been quite restless."

After speaking, she tried to take her son from He Jinxuan’s arms, but the little guy turned his head, leaned into He Jinxuan, and ignored her.

Everyone in the room found this amusing.

Old Madam Gu laughed: "This little guy is quite attached to Jinxuan."

Han Jingchen, not pleased, got up and tried to forcibly take his son from He Jinxuan’s arms, but the little one, as if he had eyes on the back of his head, reached out and wrapped his arms around He Jinxuan’s neck.

This made Old Madam Gu laugh even harder: "See, I told you, this little one’s small but smart enough."

Annoyed, Han Jingchen lightly patted his son’s little bottom: "You little rascal."

Gu Wanqing smiled at them: "Jinxuan, your grandparents know you want to start long-haul transport, so they’re preparing to buy ten new Dongfeng trucks as Yanyan’s dowry.

The vehicles have been ordered by me and your dad, and they can be collected in a week. You should arrange a place to park them in advance."

He Jinxuan looked up at Mr. Gu. He hadn’t expected that the casual conversation with his grandfather had stuck with him: "Does Yanyan know about this?"

Gu Wanqing, smiling, shook her head: "She’s in closed training now and hasn’t been told."

He Jinxuan never intended to rely on the Yue Family to prosper; he just wanted to take one step at a time.

However, since these are gifts from his grandparents to Xinyan as her dowry, and Xinyan isn’t present, he didn’t feel it appropriate to voice his opinions just yet.
