When Li Manjun returned home, she handed the ice cream to Zhao Yong and Aunt Guo, and asked Aunt Guo to rest for a while. Then she went to the kitchen to wash her hands and continue making mooncakes.
Aunt Guo knew that it was Li Manjun's kindness, so she was not polite to her. She greeted Nian Nian, washed her hands, ate ice cream, and went to see the little rabbit.
Zhao Yong leaned over, ate the cold ice cream and asked curiously: "What did you and Zhu Yaowei talk about?"
Li Manjun put the kneaded mooncakes into the mold and pressed them into shape. She smiled and said, "The investment is ready. Now that the deal is done, we won't have to worry about it for the rest of our lives."
There are four big bosses, and you can make a lot of money if you choose any one of them.
Zhao Yong didn't understand why the Internet could protect him for the rest of his life, but his wife was absolutely right, and he was also happy, "Then how much are you going to invest?"
"Full investment." Li Manjun was a little surprised to see Zhao Yong, and explained: "Zhu Yaowei was the one who took the lead. He had no money, so he borrowed five million from me, and the interest was paid with 3% of the shares of his capital branch."
"Including our own 10 million, the total is 15 million."
I have a total of 16 million in hand, but I have invested all of it.
Zhao Yong nodded, it was not impossible, he could still make money anyway.
However, what is Zhu Yaowei doing?
"He didn't have to pay a penny to cooperate with us, so he gave us five million for free?"
Li Manjun choked and said, "Ah...don't I still have 3% of the shares?" It can't be said that it's free of charge.
Moreover, the money was borrowed and he would pay it back when he has the money.
Zhao Yong sighed helplessly, "But all the money was paid by us. If we lose, the risk will be all ours. He knows how to calculate."
Li Manjun shrugged helplessly, "There is no way, I wouldn't be able to find anyone without him."
Rongcheng is still a place with limitations.
Li Manjun patted Zhao Yong on the shoulder, "Don't be angry, he is just like that, but he is actually not a bad person."
It was this sentence again, Zhao Yong felt like he had heard it several times.
But when he thought about it, none of his friends here were reliable, and he felt instantly at peace.
"Have you finished eating? Make mooncakes after you finish. Don't eat them until night." Li Manjun said with a smile.
Zhao Yong nodded, threw away the finished ice cream stick, washed his hands and continued making mooncakes.
Nian Nian and Aunt Guo joined in after they had rested. At four o'clock in the afternoon, the mooncakes were finally put into the oven.
Aunt Guo continued to prepare dinner, and Li Manjun's family of three were responsible for keeping an eye on the oven. When the time was up, they took it out, turned it over, and continued baking.
Not to mention, the mooncakes made by myself smell extraordinarily delicious.
However, when it came time to eat mooncakes in the evening, I didn’t eat even two of the mooncakes on the baking sheet at home, but the mooncake gift box sent by Zhu Yaowei had already been opened and most of it had been eaten.
Aunt Guo smiled bitterly and said: "Next time, I'd better go to the store to buy it. Making it yourself is time-consuming and not delicious."
Li Manjun took the homemade five-nut mooncake that her daughter had eaten and then discarded, and asked in confusion:
"What's the problem? It smells delicious, but it doesn't taste good..."
Aunt Guo also didn’t expect that her craftsmanship, which she was so proud of, would fail with the mooncakes. She took out her notebook to review the recipe at night, and finally discovered that the dough might have been kneaded dry and tasted hard.
But I still couldn't finish the rest. Zhao Yong now has a mouth full of food and is no longer the rough guy he used to be who could eat anything as long as he could fill his stomach.
Not to mention that every year, the little girl is the first in the family to hold the food in her mouth, not touching a bite that is not delicious, and tightening her mouth so tightly that she cannot even put it in.
There was no other way, so Li Manjun asked Aunt Guo to wrap all the remaining mooncakes in white oil paper, five in a pack, which was exactly four packs, and give them away.
As the name suggests, it is purely handmade, green and pollution-free.
Shirley Zhong, Wen Yufeng, Mrs. Qiu, and Park Hye-jin, who were called to the coffee shop by Li Manjun, were each holding a fragrant mooncake. They were quite happy and felt that Li Manjun was interested.
It wasn’t until I took it home and wanted to taste it that I realized how good it was.
Delicious food in the world".
Mrs. Qiu and Park Hye-jin still gave them face, but maybe they didn't know Li Manjun well enough to complain about each other, so they didn't say anything.
Shirley Zhong was not polite. She called Li Manjun that night and asked, "Did you give me all the mooncakes that you failed to make?"
Li Manjun coughed twice, looked at her daughter who was milling around in front of her, and said, "What? Isn't it delicious? They are made every year. The little girl specially reserved them for her godmother. No one in the family will touch them."
Touch it, I smell it and it shouldn’t be bad.”
"...Ah, did you make it specially for me every year?" Shirley Zhong's tone instantly softened.
I look at my mother who is snickering every year, but I have no idea that I have taken the blame for my mother, and I want to take my mother to feed the little rabbit with the carrots.
Two days later, Li Manjun ran into Wen Yufeng on the street. As soon as her sister saw her, she came up and slapped her on the shoulder, "Li Manjun, good on you! Give me the mooncakes that were spoiled at home. What are your intentions!"
As a result, she still has those five moon cakes placed on the dining table, unable to eat them. It would be a pity to throw them away, and it would be very difficult for her to die.
Li Manjun screamed in pain, rubbed his shoulders and said innocently: "No, I made it seriously. It may not taste good the first time I make it, but it's not bad either."
Wen Yufeng rolled her eyes at her, dragged her to a cold drink shop on the street, asked Li Manjun to buy a cup of shaved ice, and then let her go.
Before the two parted, Wen Yufeng repeatedly warned, "Don't do it next time!"
Li Manjun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had no choice but to accept it.
The moon cake thing just happened.
Good news also came from Zhu Yaowei. The meeting has been arranged. It is scheduled to be in mid-November, and we will meet one person a day.
Li Manjun had no objection to this time arrangement, it was just right.
According to the time when the contract was signed three years ago, the cooperation between Greenman and Toyo Company expired at the end of October.
When the workers heard about this, they began to worry that the cooperation would end and the sorting field would be closed. Especially at this point in time, the Chinese New Year will be coming in two or three months. They all want to survive until the end of the new year smoothly, and they are panicking.
Liu Yan was pregnant, and when she encountered this incident, she was extremely busy just trying to appease people's hearts every day, and she was very anxious.
Under the urging of the workers, they finally couldn't stand it anymore and came to Li Manjun to ask for permission.
"Will the sorting field still work? Will the contract with Toyo Company be renewed?" Liu Yan came in a hurry, sweating all over her head.
A few days after she found out she was pregnant, Li Manjun was the first person besides her husband to know.
Seeing that she was so anxious, I quickly poured her a glass of water and asked her to sit down and rest for a while to stop the fetal force.
Liu Yan flipped the glass of water away, "I can't drink it, I'm worried."
If the sorting field is closed, she will definitely not lose her job, and Li Manjun will arrange a job for her no matter what.
But what to do with the more than fifty workers in the factory?
For people who have to support their families in Hukou, it is not easy to accept the sudden loss of a long-term and stable job.
She was worried that the workers would cause trouble.
