February 9th is only one day left before New Year’s Eve.
Haotian Group begins its holiday.
Except for some people on duty, most of the employees have two days off. There is nothing we can do about it. Agricultural production is no different from others and cannot be separated from people.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Fang Zhigang returned home with the Spring Festival benefits. At the same time, he also received a year-end bonus of one million yuan, which was like a dream.
"Honey, I'm back."
"Why are you coming back now? The couple next door, Lao Wang, went on vacation at the end of last month."
Gu Haiyan came over and complained.
"What's the comparison? Lao Wang only earns more than 20,000 yuan a month. My current salary is almost three times his." Fang Zhigang explained helplessly.
Gu Haiyan took two big bags from her husband and couldn't help but curiously said:
"What? Why is it so heavy?"
"Spring Festival benefits issued by the company."
"Really? Let me see what was posted?"
Gu Haiyan immediately became interested.
I heard from my husband that their company is a big company, and the boss has always been very generous. Their old man is now considered a senior executive in the company, and the benefits are definitely good.
Fang Zhigang smiled and replied: "The food is not bad. There are ten kilograms of whale meat and twenty kilograms of mushrooms in total, which is enough for our family to eat for a month."
"It's not only good, it's much better than I expected. The food stamps were just issued a few days ago. I was originally thinking of giving out some goodies for the Chinese New Year, but I didn't even get half a kilogram of pork." Gu Haiyan's tone was full of surprise.
"Is pork so popular?"
Fang Zhigang was a little surprised.
"Look what you said, who wouldn't want to eat better during the Chinese New Year?"
"How much does a pound of pork cost on the market now?"
"Sigh, there is no market at the moment. You can't buy pork at all. You can occasionally buy some seafood, but the price is extremely expensive, one pound costs two to three thousand."
"Two or three thousand? Such an exaggeration?"
"Who says it isn't? But then again, there are tens of millions of people in the city, and with so many mouths, no matter how much meat there is, there won't be enough meat."
Fang Zhigang nodded: "Cut half of the whale meat out later and ask the boss to come and get it."
Their eldest son has been married for several years, and the two families live not far apart. In addition, the couple also has a daughter who just got married to Shencheng next door last year.
"Got it."
Gu Haiyan agreed wholeheartedly.
In less than half an hour, Fang Jie’s family arrived.
Fang Zhigang quickly took over his grandson from his daughter-in-law Xu Li. Due to his busy work schedule during this period, he had not held the little one in his arms for a long time.
"Dad, how many days off do you have during the Chinese New Year?"
"I have to be on duty and won't have a holiday."
Fang Zhigang shook his head.
"So busy?" Fang Jie asked in surprise.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Your father and I are now the security directors, so we have to lead by example."
Fang Zhigang explained casually.
After a while, Gu Haiyan came over with a large plate of braised whale meat:
"Have you had dinner?"
"So what?"
Fang Jie, who smelled the aroma of meat, immediately changed his words.
In fact, their family has already eaten.
Xu Li couldn't help but asked curiously: "Mom, where did you buy this meat? I'll weigh it tomorrow too."
"This is whale meat. It is distributed by your father's company. You can take some back later."
"Dad, your company is great. It even gives out meat. It's much better than our company. We don't even give out stuff during the Spring Festival, and we only get one-third of the salary."
Fang Jie couldn't help but envy him.
His father was unemployed in middle age, but he could still find such a good job, with not only high salary but also good benefits.
"Wow, grandma, I want to eat meat."
When the little guy sees the meat, he can no longer take his eyes away.
Fang Zhigang greeted with a smile: "Okay, hurry up and start eating, don't make Liangliang hungry."
"Mom, Liangliang has eaten at home, please don't serve more food." Xu Li reminded quickly.
"Then let him eat more meat and eat less."
Gu Haiyan smiled and nodded.
After dinner started, Fang Zhigang first helped his grandson pick up two large pieces of whale meat. Whale meat has fewer spines and is very suitable for children.
The little guy ate very happily, his mouth was full of oil.
Gu Haiyan looked a little distressed: "Oh, look at Liangliang, you two don't usually save too much, why do you save so much money?"
"Mom, we still have to pay back the mortgage!" Fang Jie said bitterly, "The mortgage interest rate was just raised this month. Xu Li and I calculated that we have to pay twice as much as before. We paid part of it in advance.
Otherwise, it will be a big loss."
At present, the currency is depreciating rapidly, but what is annoying is that wages have not increased by a dime. Coupled with the high unemployment rate, the life pressure of ordinary people is still very high.
Fang Zhigang winked at his wife, and Gu Haiyan went to the bedroom, and when she came back, she had an extra bank card in her hand.
"Boss, this is your dad's salary card. There is 2.3 million in it. Take it back and pay off your mortgage!"
"Mom, this is your pension money. The world is so chaotic now, I can't take it."
Fang Jie quickly shook his head.
When I got married and bought a house a few years ago, I already emptied my parents' savings. Children should not be too selfish.
Fang Zhigang smiled and reassured: "Take it, your dad and I have a job now, and my monthly salary of 80,000 yuan is completely enough."
"Yes, your dad will receive a million yuan in year-end bonuses this year alone. You don't have to worry about us."
Gu Haiyan followed closely and echoed.
"One million?" Fang Jie's eyes widened instantly, "Dad, you didn't lie to me, did you?"
Damn it, what kind of fairy company is this?
Other companies can be very conscientious as long as they don't delay wages, but his father's company actually gave out a year-end bonus of one million, which is really infuriating.
"Why did I lie to you? Didn't I tell you that our boss is not short of money?"
Fang Zhigang helped his grandson pick up a piece of fish again.
Fang Jie slapped his forehead in frustration: "Dad, I remembered that your company sold doomsday cans last year and must have made a lot of money."
"Hehe, I bought ten boxes of doomsday cans privately before. Your mother almost divorced me because she complained that I spent money indiscriminately. What now?"
"I made a lot of money. I went shopping a few days ago and saw a shop selling doomsday cans. This guy dared to ask for two thousand yuan for a small can. I was really crazy about money."
Fang Jie murmured to himself.
Gu Haiyan's eyes suddenly lit up: "Is the price so high? How about selling our cans, how can we make a lot of money?"
"Don't come here blindly. This is the last life-saving food for our family. Don't touch it unless it is absolutely necessary."
Fang Zhigang quickly stopped him.
"Mom, my dad is right. Now that we even have food stamps, the future is really not optimistic."
"I would rather sell a house than sell cans."
Fang Jie and his wife followed suit.
"Okay, I'll just say it casually."
Gu Haiyan immediately gave up the idea.
……
At the same time, after get off work, Ma Ruijie knocked on the door of her eldest sister's house with a lot of gifts.
She can't eat so much by herself.
Speaking of which, after my parents sold the house, they rented a house at first. Later, due to changes in the situation, they have been taking turns living in the house of their two sisters.
This month it happens to be the turn of my eldest sister’s house.
