Far away in Moscow

Chapter 189 After the Separation
The scorching summer was coming to an end, near the end of August, Fu Jiahui finally came back from China, and his fourth uncle came back with him.The two uncles and nephews are still talking and laughing as before, but from the perspective of the company, they are no longer a family.

Mengxuanna was originally jointly controlled by a group of old and young relatives of the Fu family, with a total of more than 40 natural person shareholders.This time the family split was almost in half. More than 20 people followed the uncle to set up another family, and the other 20 people stayed with Fu Jiahui's father.

There is no feud between the family that cannot be resolved. The so-called estrangement and conflicts are nothing more than daily trivial grievances over the years, most of which are related to money.The broad-minded person laughed it off, but the narrow-minded person couldn't figure it out, and finally the trouble came to the point of separation.

Contradictions and struggles between people are very strange things. Sometimes they can turn close relatives against each other, and sometimes they are very trivial.When we were under the same roof, everyone looked at each other disliked, and we couldn't get over the hurdle in our hearts no matter what; once we were completely separated, many things disappeared quickly.

The shareholders of Mengxuanna are like this.Since the separation, the previously icy relationship between the two parties suddenly eased, and some things in their hearts were finally able to be shared with each other. On the contrary, they are much warmer than before the separation.Now they have become two companies, but they still share an office building and a factory building, but the pants they produce are no longer of the same brand.

Mengxuanna's brand remained at Fu Jiahui's father's side, and the uncle's brand was named Mengshanna. The English trademark looked very similar to Mengxuanna, probably to gain the glory of the old brand. The market gives new brands a certain degree of visual recognition.

In the next few years, the two companies have experienced several separations, and each of the separated brands will adopt a similar name, such as Mengjiana, Mengxianna, Meng Xina, etc. with the same purpose.

Although the grievances between the family have been resolved, after all, they all produce pants and they all face the same market, so the competition relationship is obvious.It was precisely because of this that the uncle sent his fourth uncle, who had a good relationship with Fu Jiahui, to Moscow to avoid any unpleasantness.

Fu Jiahui knew everything well, since the matter had developed to this point, there was no need to use unnecessary emotions to avoid breaking the relationship between uncle and nephew.So he was secretly on guard in his heart, and on the surface he talked and laughed with his fourth uncle as usual, and there was no quarrel.

The fourth uncle came to Moscow for more than a month last time, and contacted all the clients that the uncle had made before.The original intention was to win them over and take a share from Meng Xuanna, so that her new brand could gain a firm foothold once it entered the market.

But he and his uncle still underestimated their nephew.Fu Jiahui has been in the market for nearly a year. Although he handed over most of the daily affairs to Hu Yi in the later period, he is not idle every day. Friendship to strengthen business relationship.

So the fourth uncle's previous poaching work did not achieve much results, and the ambiguous words of the old customers also made him and the uncle feel lacking in confidence.But at that time, separation was imminent, and they had no choice but to take one step at a time.

Now that the fourth uncle has returned to Moscow with a new brand, most of the old customers have an ambiguous attitude and are unwilling to take more of their products.He had no choice but to unpack and take out bundles of trousers, and went to the bulk goods stalls to sell half-sell and half-give them, hoping to promote sales from the bottom up.

"I think the fourth uncle has worked hard enough. If it goes on like this, it will definitely not pose any threat to you, Meng Xuanna." On the penultimate day of August, Hu Yi fanned the wind with a newspaper by the side of the box, and dealt with it leisurely. Jiahui said: "I'm afraid your uncle may have screwed up this time, and I think it will be a waste of time to fetch water from a bamboo basket."

"No, there is no unsalable Chinese product in the big market—at least for now." Fu Jiahui sniffed lightly from his nose: "Their pants are of the same quality as ours. Reasons don’t sell, it’s just a matter of time.”

"Then what do you mean..." Hu Yi hesitated for a moment: "Fourth Uncle may affect your business in the future?"

"Hey, there's nothing to worry about. The market is so big, and there are thousands of customers who make pants. It doesn't matter if there is one more owner. What's more, as long as your products are good enough, no matter how much others struggle It won't affect us." Fu Jiahui set up an awning and looked at Fourth Uncle's booth: "But you have to shout for good things, Fourth Uncle is very energetic now, I can't be careless, I have to go out and find more customers. "

Hu Yi followed his gaze to look at Fourth Uncle's booth, which was still operated by another family in winter, and it was vacated just a few months ago.He took a deep breath, turned his head to Jiahui and said, "Jiahui, I want...to discuss something with you."

"Just say it. What is vague?"

"In the first half of the year, I worked in the market almost every day, and I missed a lot of classes. The teachers had a lot of opinions on me. In two days, school will start again. I think..."

"School affairs are easy to handle." Fu Jiahui interrupted him indifferently: "We are still the same as before, if you need to go to class, just say so, don't be shy."

"No." Hu Yi didn't feel comfortable speaking, and smiled coyly: "If you don't lack people here, I think...study a few months in school."

Fu Jiahui was startled, and stared at him blankly for a while: "What do you mean? Don't plan to do anything here anymore?"

"I have this idea." Hu Yi bit his lips: "Actually, I really don't want to part with it. To put it hypocritically, we get along well, and you have always been very interesting to me. What are you talking about? Working here makes a lot of money, so I have been hesitating for the past few days. Now that school is about to start, I have to talk to you about it."

"Yeah, aren't you doing a good job here? Is attending classes more important than making money?" Fu Jiahui seemed unable to understand Hu Yi's thoughts, and rubbed his chin embarrassingly: "I remember Li Baoqing said that you need money That's why I came to the market to find a job, what? Are you not short of money now?"

Fu Jiahui's words were not meant to be ironic, but it was a bit harsh to Hu Yi's ears, as if he said that he had slapped his ass and left after earning enough money.

He blushed, shook his head hastily, and said, "No, absolutely not. As I said just now, I was actually quite hesitant... Well, it's mainly because I'm just in my third year, and I... I don't know what to do. You know, I My parents paid me to send me here to get a degree in college, and I was really afraid that I would let them down."

"Then..." Fu Jiahui stared at him in embarrassment: "Let's discuss it again, how many days do you need to attend every week?"
