Gu Fei was about to go out to buy New Year's goods when he saw Tian Jianle smiling and inviting him to sit in the house. He poured a glass of water and handed it to him, and said sheepishly: "Brother Le, I'm sorry, the house is a bit shabby. I hope you won't dislike it."
Before going to Yangcheng, he planned to build a house in Pengjia Village in two years. But now that he has bought a house in Yangcheng, he does not plan to come back to build a house again.
This time, Peng's mother had been ill a few days ago, and Peng Xiaomei was worried. She happened to come back during the factory holiday. In fact, according to Gu Fei's wishes, he didn't want to come back. The memories left for his son here were not good, and he was afraid that coming back would bring back the past.
Those embarrassing memories.
Tian Jianle deliberately pulled a face and said: "It's too outrageous for us brothers to say these things. I think when we first met, the house you lived in wasn't even as good as this. I didn't dislike it then, and I don't even mind it now.
Maybe I dislike it."
Gu Fei said differently. When they first met Tian Jianle, he had just arrived in the county from the countryside, but now Tian Jianle is the big boss. And he is just an ordinary wage earner.
Tian Jianle didn't like hearing this and said, "Gu Fei, you are just a wage earner for a big boss. We are brothers, and it will hurt my heart too much if you say this."
"Gu Fei, you quit that job and joined my factory as the director."
He also opened a garment factory in Yangcheng, mainly engaged in agent processing. At first, he opened this factory just to test the waters. Later, he found that he was not making much money, so he imitated Tian Shao and hired an individual to manage it.
Gu Fei was very grateful for his partiality, but still politely refused: "Brother Le, I'm not that material. It's okay to let me run errands, but I don't have the ability to manage such a big factory."
Tian Jianle immediately changed his mind and said, "Then don't join the garment factory and you can work with me. Don't worry, your income will definitely be twenty times what it is now."
He knew that after Gu Fei was promoted to deputy director, his monthly salary would be RMB 108, plus bonuses, the salary would be around RMB 1,500 for the whole year. If he followed him, the salary would be at least RMB 30,000 a year.
Gu Fei was not moved at all, he shook his head and said: "Brother Le, I told you before, I just want to live a stable life now. Working in a home power plant, although I don't make much money with you, I can sleep peacefully.
My wife doesn’t have to worry."
Peng Xiaomei works as a cook in the kitchen. Because she has to take care of children, she does less work than others, and her salary is only 36 yuan. However, the couple’s combined annual income is 2,000 yuan. Since they don’t have any big expenses, they can save half of it in a year.
.Both he and Peng Xiaomei were very satisfied with this.
Tian Jianle continued to persuade: "Afei, if you follow me, your wife and children will soon be able to live a good life. If you stay at the home appliance factory, you will have to count money every day in the future."
"A Fei, we swore before that we must do something great so that our journey in this world will not be in vain. A Fei, what's wrong with you now?"
When you were just released from prison, Tian Jianle came to him and was rejected. He didn't dare to push too hard because he hadn't adjusted his mentality. But it's been two years and he still hasn't recovered, and he hates that iron can't become steel.
.
Gu Fei said with a smile: "Brother Le, I was young and ignorant at that time. I thought that a man had to do something in order to have face, even if he risked his life. But I am not alone now. I
I have a wife and children, and I have to be responsible for them."
Tian Jianle said unceremoniously: "If you are really responsible for them, you should follow me and provide them with a good life. It is not as hard as it is now for your wife to work in the canteen."
Gu Fei was not angry. He said sincerely: "Brother Le, I don't want to make a lot of money. I just want to live with my wife and children. Brother Le, I'm sorry for letting down your kindness."
Seeing that he wouldn't let go no matter what, Tongtian Jiale had no choice but to leave a business card and let Gu Fei find him when he figured it out.
After sending the person away, Gu Fei continued to work. But Peng Xiaomei came out of the kitchen and asked in a low voice: "A Fei, what kind of business is he doing? If you follow him, you can make twenty times what you are making now in a year?"
"
Hearing this, Gu Fei smiled and said, "Are you excited?"
Peng Xiaomei did not deny that she was really moved at that moment: "Twenty times the income? It is equivalent to working with him for one year, which is equivalent to working in a home power plant for twenty years. But I know that there must be a reason for your refusal."
Gu Fei didn't hide anything from him and said: "The home appliance and clothing stores he opened in the provincial capital were very profitable, and he would also buy some rare items from Yangcheng and sell them in the provincial capital, but the most profitable ones were the song and dance hall and the video hall.
.”
Peng Xiaomei has lived in Yangcheng for two years, so she naturally knows what a dance hall is. It is a place where a group of men and women dance and have fun. With these men and women hugging each other, you can imagine what will happen next.
Peng Xiaomei quickly said: "Those are all inappropriate. You were right not to agree."
She has to follow Tian Jianle, if she fails to learn, she will have no place to cry.
Gu Fei smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I won't do anything with him. Although I can't compare with him, I believe that our days will get better and better in the future."
It is not illegal to open a dance hall and video hall. He did not agree to follow Tian Jianle because he thought he rose too fast. Based on experience, he guessed that Le Ge must have found a backer.
The six years he spent in prison made Gu Fei clearly understand one thing. The backers found in this kind of business are actually the most dangerous. Once something happens, they will be pushed out, and the backers may be hidden behind the scenes.
He escaped unscathed. He was going to have sex with Tian Jianle, and he would not be able to escape if something happened. He owed his wife and children too much, and it was impossible to take risks again.
Peng Xiaomei nodded and said: "You are so able to endure hardships, the factory director also values you, and your salary will be higher and higher in the future."
Gu Fei smiled and said: "Before I came back, the factory director told me that he would promote me to supervisor when I get my high school diploma, so I will try to get my high school diploma within two years."
After Gu Fei got his elementary school diploma, Zhang Jianhe hired a male teacher to give him one-on-one tutoring, and the factory reimbursed him for the cost. Likewise, he got his junior high school diploma within a year and a half.
Hearing this, Peng Xiaomei was both grateful and felt lucky: "A Fei, the factory director is such a good person. We must repay him in the future."
Gu Fei smiled and agreed. In fact, he knew in his heart that the benefits he enjoyed came from Tian Shao, not the factory director Zhang Jianhe. He was particularly grateful to Tian Shao for this. She did not use money to hit people like Tian Jianle, but
He was given a job so that he could support his wife and children through hard work. Step by step, he has not only provided a stable life for his wife and children, but also won the respect and recognition of the people in the factory.
