Aside from Mandarin, Math, and English, the books also included Geography and Chemistry, and then there were professional courses, mainly focused on professional courses. The distributed books are specifically for night school education.
Lin Wan flipped through them briefly and found that they differed from university books, being relatively simpler yet more specialized.
At this time, most of those attending night schools were people in their twenties or thirties, who were mostly working or married with children. There were over sixty people in their class, and most of the students studying this specialty were girls, though nearly half were boys.
With family constraints preventing them from entering university and a desire not to fall behind, night school was the best choice.
Classes were held in the evening in three sessions, from 6:30 to 9:00. On the first day of class, everyone was very excited and warmly introduced themselves to each other.
This atmosphere was much to Lin Wan’s liking. It was much better than when she attended university in her previous life, where she had almost no friends.
Their house was very close to the school, just a ten-minute walk, but Lin Wan rode her bike there in two or three minutes.
When she got home, she found the light on in Grandma’s room, waiting for her to finish class.
This touched Lin Wan deeply; even in her past life when she treated Grandma poorly, Grandma never held any resentment. In this life, Lin Wan poured her heart out, and in return received heartfelt care.
Though having early mornings and late nights, things at school were going smoothly, and she understood most of the courses.
That day at the winery, Li Jianye showed her this month’s account book. Lin Wan did a quick check and found that the net profit this month was actually more than one thousand.
Not bad, not bad, especially considering the winery had only been open for a few months—it was already doing quite well.
"We got a batch of grapes yesterday, already cleaned by two aunties. Today, we’re waiting for you to guide us on how to make it."
"Did you buy the sugar?"
"Bought twenty bags, is it enough?"
The type of wine Lin Wan knew was just the kind made at home, with just the final step of adding some egg whites to make the wine more clear.
Strictly speaking, it was slightly different from real wine, but Lin Wan still gave it the name of wine.
The bottle packaging was modeled after some foreign brands, with slight alterations.
Lin Wan had been busy making wine over the past few days.
Lin Yinghui and Li Congnan would return to school in two days. During this time, they had become quite familiar with things, together with two salespeople.
Both of them suggested leaving all the winery affairs entirely to Li Jianye while they would come over on Sundays to handle sales and lend a helping hand.
Lin Wan had no objections; the weather was getting colder and the night market wouldn’t last long, so she needed to focus on the shop.
The three of them discussed it and decided to give Li Jianye a twenty percent share.
Lin Wan didn’t plan on taking shares; all of it would go to her brother.
"Xiao Wan, when the winery was first established, it was you and Congnan who did it together. I only helped run clients later, so I don’t want any shares." Lin Yinghui felt ashamed always taking advantage of his little sister.
"Brother, let me finish. The winery’s several types of wine now are enough to open up the national market. You and Brother Nan are both excellent at sales. Back then, I discussed starting the winery with Brother Li because mom’s rice wine tasted great, plus I knew a few ways to brew wine. Certainly, making money is good, but I don’t like staying at the winery—being in the restaurant is better. Let’s settle the shares —I’ll focus on our restaurant from now on. I’ve already discussed with Brother Jianye and Brother Li that if I have any wine-making methods, they will directly pay me. You and Brother Li would get 45% profit each, and Brother Jianye 10%." They had already talked about it in the morning, agreeing to give Lin Wan three thousand yuan at the end of the year as compensation for these methods.
Lin Wan was happy with the arrangement; her ambition wasn’t in the winery, but in clothes.
Having studied for two lifetimes, she was determined to make her mark in the fashion industry.
