“But what?” Chen Yiran saw that Lin Banxia had other ideas and immediately pressed.
“Aunt, you work at the machinery factory, right?” Lin Banxia didn’t immediately reply to Chen Yiran’s question but instead asked about Chen Yiran’s workplace.
Chen Yiran nodded: “Yes, I’ve been at the machinery factory for over twenty years.”
Lin Banxia chuckled: “Since that’s the case, I might as well sell the manufacturing method of the massager to the machinery factory!”
“This way, the massager can be openly sold to the public, and I can also be idle. This way, it’s the best of both worlds!”
Chen Yiran slapped her thigh: “Yes! How did I not think of that!”
“The machinery factory already has the qualifications for production and sales, so the massager will have a legitimate sales channel.”
“Moreover, selling it to the machinery factory is a good thing for you, as you won’t have to worry about various matters.”
“I’ll go back to the machinery factory this afternoon to find the factory director!”
Chen Yiran happily took Lin Banxia’s hand, patted it affectionately, and exclaimed, “Our Banxia is so smart! If you have any more good ideas in the future, remember to tell Aunt, and Aunt will negotiate a good price with the machinery factory for you!”
“Thank you, Aunt!” Lin Banxia didn’t care much about these things. Anyway, it was just her hobby, and she wasn’t planning to make a living from it.
“Then I’ll bring the massager to the machinery factory this afternoon and let the factory director experience it personally, so we can negotiate the price!”
Chen Yiran was already calculating in her mind how to get the maximum benefit from the machinery factory director!
Although she was just a facilitator, Banxia was Mo’er’s wife, so this was also considered helping her own family.
She didn’t know when Mo’er would wake up, or… if he would wake up.
As time went on, Mo’er’s subsidy from the research institute would likely decrease, or even stop.
Although Lin Banxia would have the Qin family’s support in the future, it wasn’t a long-term solution.
Now, with the income from the massager, Banxia could live a more comfortable life.
However…
Chen Yiran remembered something else.
“Banxia, are you planning to sell it outright, or go for royalties?”
“If you sell it outright, you’ll get a large sum at once, but then it’s gone. Regardless of how well the massager sells, it will have nothing to do with you. But if you go for royalties, it depends on the sales volume of the massager.”
“However, Aunt has seen this massager, so selfishly, I suggest you choose the second option.”
“The royalties might be less at the beginning, but the key is longevity. It’s equivalent to you getting another salary every month!”
“To be honest, Aunt, as women, we should have our own assets so we can stand tall at home.”
If Qin Mo never woke up, this would also be a way out.
Chen Yiran added silently in her heart.
Lin Banxia was a little surprised by Chen Yiran’s business acumen.
She had no ideas in this regard. After all, she didn’t lack money in her previous life; she only needed to focus on research.
Chen Yiran’s words served as a reminder.
Although she was married to Qin Mo, she couldn’t completely depend on him.
If Qin Mo woke up and turned out to be a scumbag, she definitely wouldn’t wrong herself! She would definitely get a divorce.
Qin Mo: Little wife, I’m definitely not a scumbag!
If they divorced, she and her mother would need to earn money themselves.
If she could get a certain amount of royalties every month, it would be considered her own job.
She could earn money without spending time.
A steady stream of income was not a bad thing.
After Lin Banxia thought it through, she didn’t hesitate too much and said directly: “Thank you, Aunt, for considering me. Then I’ll listen to Aunt and choose royalties.”
“Also, Aunt, you can tell the factory director that I know how to make many other small gadgets. We can cooperate long-term if there’s an opportunity in the future.”
Chen Yiran nodded affectionately at Lin Banxia’s nose after hearing this, affirming: “You’re quite quick-witted! You even know how to increase your bargaining chips! Don’t worry, Aunt will remember! I’ll bring you good news tomorrow!”
Then, Chen Yiran asked in detail about the various functions of the massager.
As the two talked in the living room, the food in the kitchen was also heated up.
The family happily had lunch. During the meal, the Qin family members were very supportive of Chen Yiran’s proposal regarding the massager.
Liu Meiyun was even more surprised.
She didn’t expect that her act of showing off could actually bring income to the family!
She couldn’t be happier! She hadn’t stopped smiling throughout the meal.
Of course, the most crucial thing was that her daughter was capable! This made her, as a mother, stand taller!
Lin Banxia also focused on eating.
The state-run restaurant lived up to its reputation, it was incredibly delicious!
Especially the meat!
Braised pork! Twice-cooked pork! Stewed beef!
Each dish made Lin Banxia’s mouth water!
Being able to eat delicious food in a peaceful era in this life, Lin Banxia felt that this transmigration was worth it!
She only hoped that her research achievements from her previous life could bring hope to humanity!
After the meal, the Qin family members left.
Of course, Chen Yiran also took the massager with her.
After getting into the car for the return trip, Yang Pingying suddenly slapped her thigh and exclaimed, startling Chen Yiran and Du Yuxi, who were excitedly discussing the massager, and they both looked at Yang Pingying in the front passenger seat.
“Mom, what’s wrong?” Chen Yiran looked at Yang Pingying’s furrowed brow, fearing that Yang Pingying was feeling unwell.
Du Yuxi also spoke at the same time: “Yes, Mom, what’s wrong?”
Under their worried gazes, Yang Pingying said faintly: “We forgot to visit Mo’er.”
This sentence plunged the three women in the car into silence.
They had really forgotten!
The atmosphere became somewhat stagnant.
The driver cautiously asked, “Old Madam, should we drive back?”
Yang Pingying waved her hand: “Forget it, Mo’er should be fine. We’ll visit him next time. Otherwise, if we keep disturbing them, Banxia might think we don’t trust her.”
Chen Yiran, having had a deep interaction with Lin Banxia because of the massager, agreed without hesitation: “Mom is right! I saw Banxia in that room all morning, she must have spent a lot of effort researching new things. It’s right for us not to disturb her now.”
Du Yuxi had always listened to Yang Pingying and Chen Yiran, so she didn’t express any opinion.
Anyway, with Luo Gang there, Mo’er wouldn’t be in any danger.
Thus, discussions about the massager began again in the car.
Meanwhile, Qin Mo, lying quietly in **, was completely unaware that he had been collectively ignored by his grandmother and aunts.
If he had known, he would probably have sighed: So love really can disappear…
