Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1108: Ribbon Cutting and Unveiling
He Jinxuan drew her into the office, setting the staff list right in front of her: "Take a look at this."
He poured her a cup of water before adding, "These folks are mostly retired soldiers. For one, they possess strong endurance and can handle tough work. For another, they bring real skills, so they won't get pushed around when trouble arises."
Xinyan nodded in full agreement with He Jinxuan's view, grinning as she replied, "I could use some capable hands on my side too. Would you mind introducing a couple to me?"
With a warm smile, He Jinxuan consented, "Of course, I'll reach out for you in the coming days and let you know the moment I get updates."
Xinyan felt overjoyed, since plenty of tasks awaited her ahead, and Ling Tianze's team alone couldn't shoulder everything.
Having reviewed the lists, she gained a solid grasp of the staff situation there.
While absorbing He Jinxuan's details, she shared a few ideas of her own too.
He Jinxuan jotted them all down carefully: "Yanyan, spot on. I'll make the announcement tomorrow."
The pair chatted extensively, and He Jinxuan picked up tons from it: "Yanyan, your points were spot-on brilliant. Hearing you beats a decade of book study. I've gained so much."
Xinyan chuckled softly; her insights stemmed straight from future knowledge, pure hands-on wisdom.
Only after deep thought did He Jinxuan choose to launch a modest transport firm.
To start, he knew the business inside out, and besides, long-distance hauling was in demand, plus city folks needed it too. With his long-forged networks, he saw bright prospects ahead.
Darkness had fallen by the time they stepped out.
They spotted a state-owned eatery, grabbed dinner, and then He Jinxuan escorted her back to the siheyuan.

Over in East Province, the Gu elders stirred with mixed feelings upon spotting their escort.
At last, they could head back to Beijing.
Life felt cozy here, yet they'd never shaken their longing, with Beijing always their heartfelt goal.
Granny Zhang felt a pang of sorrow learning of their Beijing return.
Still, she'd anticipated this moment, so she hustled to sort their belongings.
Back home, Zhang Yueshan caught his mom in the midst of preparations: "Mom, did Xinyan reach out?"
Granny Zhang blinked in surprise: "No, she hasn't."
Zhang Yueshan frowned in confusion: "So what's with all the packing?"
A touch of sadness colored Granny Zhang's words: "Jingchen dispatched folks to bring Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu back to Beijing. I'm just aiding with their stuff."
Noting his mother's hesitation, Zhang Yueshan chuckled: "No need for sadness. We're all heading out together this time."
Granny Zhang eyed her son: "What's that supposed to mean?"
Zhang Yueshan spoke seriously, "They've reassigned my position."
Granny Zhang's brow furrowed: "Can you finally appear openly in Beijing?"
Zhang Yueshan affirmed with a nod: "Yeah, the culprits are all nabbed, including their backers. No more hiding for me—my status is reinstated."
Tears welled in Granny Zhang's eyes from sheer joy: "Wonderful, just wonderful."
Reluctance tugged at her for the neat courtyard and friendly community, now that she'd relocate to Beijing alongside her son.
Yet she realized her son's survival and comeback were blessings enough. Home lay wherever he did.
Plus, she yearned for Yanyan.
After two days, they waved goodbye to neighbors and hopped on the train to Beijing.

Come the weekend, Xinyan had just wrapped up her chores when He Jinxuan showed to fetch her.
Xinyan teased with mock annoyance, "I said you're swamped today—no need to come get me. Why won't you heed me?"
He Jinxuan grinned: "Busy or not, you top my list."
Everything stood prepared upon their arrival.
Congratulators knew He Jinxuan well, and the An Family naturally dispatched a rep.
Han Jingchen even carved out time to offer his best wishes.
He never imagined his future son-in-law He Jinxuan had silently launched a compact transport business.
He also hadn't foreseen the firm registered straight under Xinyan's name.
The involved Xinyan herself learned of it only post-ribbon-cutting.
He Jinxuan dubbed the transport outfit Yan Jin Freight.
