Liang Xiaohai, whose heart was already burning with enthusiasm, also calmed down.
The current situation was undeniably favorable. If this decision led to internal instability, as Yu Zhou had said, the gains would not outweigh the losses.
Transitioning from a dried fruit factory to a large-scale enterprise involved many challenges.
Of course, having achieved a successful start, he was still confident in the dried fruit factory.
However, whether this confidence would ultimately translate into tangible profits was something few people could truly ascertain.
Whether it was Yu Zhou or Liang Xiaohai, they might have had grand visions and confidence, but they were certainly not blindly arrogant.
Naturally, under such circumstances, they would not create problems they couldn't solve.
"You've worked hard during this period. I've had too many family matters to fully attend to the factory, so I'll still need to rely on you for daily management."
Yu Zhou saw a hint of disappointment in Liang Xiaohai's eyes, knowing that he genuinely wanted to silence those who doubted them quickly.
It was just that their wings weren't strong enough yet. Many times, they couldn't even confront the people from the Foodstuff Alliance head-on.
Moreover, with the arrival of a second child in Yu Zhou's family, one thing after another had indeed shifted the pressure onto Liang Xiaohai.
"You are the boss who grasps the big picture. You don't need to waste time on details. Don't worry, I will manage the daily operations, and there won't be any problems."
Liang Xiaohai promised with conviction. This was also an opportunity for him.
Perhaps he wasn't a manager who craved power, but when the boss delegated authority, it was equally gratifying to him.
Who wouldn't want the boss's trust and the freedom to work with all their might? Especially when following a boss with such excellent strategic vision.
"Oh! Right, tomorrow, let me use the factory's 'Little Flying Tiger.' I need to go to the train station to pick someone up."
After chatting for a while, Yu Zhou suddenly thought of the next day's plan and asked Liang Xiaohai for the car keys.
For the current dried fruit factory, Yu Zhou was essentially the biggest boss and the owner of everything within the factory.
Yet, despite this, Yu Zhou showed no inclination to use company resources for personal gain. The company was the company, and his personal matters were his own.
Although there was a "Little Flying Tiger" at the factory, he never used it without permission. After all, even as the boss, there were things that needed to be observed.
It was precisely because of this that Liang Xiaohai not only obeyed Yu Zhou's every word but also felt a sense of admiration.
Who would have thought that now that the state-owned factory had transitioned to private ownership, with the person in front of him as the boss, he still adhered to the rules at all times?
Even at the beginning, he had the same work hours as the workers, setting an example without any of the privileges or arrogance of a boss!
"Picking someone up? Alright, I'll instruct the driver to be at your doorstep tomorrow morning."
Liang Xiaohai nodded. Although he was a bit curious, he figured his boss wouldn't be picking up anyone unimportant.
Indeed, the next morning, the factory driver parked the car at Yu Zhou's doorstep. Since Yu Zhou, despite knowing how to drive, didn't have a license.
So, the driver didn't leave. He waited for Yu Zhou to come out, get into the passenger seat, and then stepped on the accelerator, heading straight for the train station.
Today was the day his elder sister's train was scheduled to arrive.
His sister, Yu Xiao, had always been someone Yu Zhou feared as a child.
To put it simply, while an elder brother might sometimes hit his younger sibling, it was mostly just a show of force.
But his second sister was entirely different. She always hit hard, each time he was beaten, it felt as though she wanted to break his legs.
Therefore, even though this second sister lived far away in Beijing, the mere thought of her return made Yu Zhou tremble.
However, fortunately, it wasn't just his second sister, Yu Xiao, returning, but also his brother-in-law. With him around, perhaps that "she-devil" would restrain herself a bit.
Thinking this, Yu Zhou couldn't help but feel a sense of relief. He vaguely recalled that in his previous life, before his relationship with his family deteriorated, his second sister had him completely under her thumb.
But in public, Yu Xiao still gave her husband plenty of face, so Yu Zhou wasn't worried about her immediately launching into a severe scolding.
Perhaps, after not seeing each other for many years, the siblings could have a calm and pleasant reunion this time.
"It's been over a year since we last met, kid, your demeanor has changed!"
As expected, wanting to have a calm conversation with Yu Xiao was Yu Zhou's wishful thinking.
As soon as she came out of the platform, Yu Xiao saw her younger brother and immediately put him in a headlock. Her posture was hardly that of a woman.
Well, if you've always been like this since childhood, you'll eventually get used to it.
After all, Yu Zhou had been suppressed by this sister since he was young, and he had no way to resist.
Even in his previous life, after falling out with everyone in his family, Yu Xiao, who had always bullied her younger brother, had actually been silently concerned about Yu Zhou.
In fact, Yu Xiao's contribution to Yu Zhou's success in business in his previous life was indelible. However, Yu Xiao never told him, and even though Yu Zhou in his past life knew this clearly, he was too ashamed to see his sister at that time.
Seeing his sister's face now, younger and exceptionally beautiful, Yu Zhou felt a surge of emotion and wanted to give her a big hug.
Unfortunately, Yu Xiao didn't give Yu Zhou that chance. Casually clamping his head in her arm, she held him tight as if apprehending a criminal, giving him no opportunity.
"Sis! Brother-in-law is here! Can't you be more ladylike?"
Utterly speechless, Yu Zhou lost all sense of joy at their reunion. What a joke. If this sister, who had always bullied him, had even a shred of sisterly behavior, she wouldn't be tormenting her own younger brother every day.
Hearing this, Yu Xiao finally reacted. She didn't seem embarrassed, instead, she directly cast a disdainful glance at Yu Zhou and the man following behind her.
She said, "Lin Haichao, what did you see?"
Second brother-in-law Lin Haichao looked up at the sky, as if he hadn't seen his wife's gesture at all, and didn't answer, making Yu Zhou almost want to call the police.
