Chapter 1314: Chapter 1314: Work and Career
Two months into the semester, Xinyan completed all the exams for the two majors in the Western Language Department—English and German—and was approved for graduation.
The school coordinated with her so that her diploma would be awarded together with the graduates of this class.
However, her graduation placement stirred up some waves. The medical school felt she was extraordinarily gifted in medicine and already capable of independently performing various major surgeries, wanting her to work at the hospital. Meanwhile, the Western Language Department refused to let her go, thinking that the country is currently short of talents in this area and wanted her to join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Both sides were unwilling to give in. Ultimately, when it came to consulting her personal wish, Xinyan chose neither the hospital nor the Ministry of Foreign Affairs but opted to stay at the school to teach.
Though it was somewhat unexpected, it was reasonable. However, staying on to teach brought her back to a battle for resources between the medical school and the Western Language Department, with neither willing to concede.
In the end, both sides discussed and shook hands, saying that young people should be responsible and contribute more if they are capable.
Only Xinyan did not agree; she didn’t want to tire herself out like a spinning top. After careful consideration, she chose the medical school. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Although the Western Language Department was somewhat disappointed, Xinyan made it clear that if any special tasks required her, she would not hesitate to undertake them, and she would also take on some translation work.
What she didn’t say was that preparations were already being made to start an English tutoring class. Although the early 1980s might not place as high a value on children’s education as later times, there was still market demand and considerable profits to be had.
As for other languages, she would add them gradually depending on the situation. The tutoring classes would mainly be aimed at community members and students with lofty ambitions.
To her surprise, for the remaining two months of this semester, the school didn’t waste any time and directly arranged classes for her. However, to help her adapt to the change in identity, she started as a teaching assistant.
In the coming days, Xinyan would go to school when there were classes, and attend to matters at the company when there were none.
On this day, after finishing her class, Xinyan headed to the courtyard. Now, besides the shops surrounding the courtyard, everything inside had been cleared and used as temporary office space for various departments.
As for the small clothing workshop previously in the courtyard, it’s now a clothing factory with an independent business license, mainly producing women’s and children’s clothing.
There are now eight of her own clothing stores in the city center, and naturally, they will develop towards a chain in the future. However, since the clothing factory was only recently established, all parties involved are still in the adjustment period.
The beauty salons, thanks to Jiang Xiaomin’s efforts, have opened two stores each in East City and West City. Whether they will open in other cities in the future will need to be taken step by step, after all, one cannot become a fat man in one bite.
Most importantly, the cosmetics company is still under construction. Although the workshop has been moved to the site of the cosmetics factory under construction, its supply capacity is indeed limited.
Additionally, the tea shop, thanks to direct contracts with tea farmers, and the increasing annual demand for tea, has now opened six stores, and business is quite good. What’s most important is that occasionally Xinyan releases some of the space-produced premium tea, which results in the tea shop guest traffic being of high quality and stable.
She wasn’t aiming to venture into other industries, after all, people’s energy is limited, and doing these well is already very good.
She had long planned that once these industries were all on track, she would just need to steer the ship and leave the rest to the people below. freewēbnoveℓ.com
She teaches, incidentally pursues her master’s and PhD degrees, manages her small household well, and travels with He Jinxuan during holidays.
