Chapter 171 Cultural T-shirt

"Hey!"

Silly Zhu was wearing a floral apron and sat opposite Li Xuewu. He smiled evilly and said, "It's both right and wrong to say this."

After saying that, he leaned forward with a big face and said: "If Deputy Factory Director Jing is treating you, you will naturally be unpopular, but today it is Deputy Factory Director Li who is treating me, so you are just teasing me."

"Haha, everyone hires leaders."

Li Xuewu murmured with his eyes: "I'm not at a high level yet."

"Nonsense!"

Silly Zhu scratched his neck, raised his eyebrows and said: "If the head of the security department and the deputy secretary of the disciplinary supervision department are not enough..."

Seeing Li Xuewu trying to hit him with a teacup, Silly Zhu immediately stopped talking, squinting his eyes and laughing: "Why don't I praise you? Look at you, I don't know who is gone?!"

After saying that, Li Xuewu put down his tea cup and leaned over, smiling and raising his eyebrows, and asked, "What game are you having tonight? I can see that Deputy Director Cheng is here too."

“It’s not the Hongmen Banquet anyway.”

Li Xuewu chuckled lightly, waved to the rainwater coming out of the kitchen and said, "Sister, bring me a pot of tea."

"Who are you calling girl?"

Yuyu rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I'm older than you, you have to let me know!"

Li Xuewu nodded and said again calmly: "Okay, elder sister, bring a pot of tea."

Now it was Yu Yu's turn to frown, moved his mouth, and turned around to go to the west room.

Silly Zhu shook his head, glanced at the two of them, and began to feel unhappy again.

First call me sister, then call me sister, and finally call me...

"What are you looking at!"

When Li Xuewu turned around, he saw Sha Zhu staring at him with big eyes, looking suspicious, as if he was cross-eyed.

Silly Zhu curled his lips and had no intention of teasing Kezi anymore about things in the factory. His teeth started to hurt again.

"You are hysterical~!"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, reached out and opened the teacup on the table, waiting for the pot of tea to rain.

Silly Zhu crossed his arms and leaned on the table and said, "You are hysterical."

As he spoke, he looked at the girl in the west room, and then asked Li Xuewu: "Why don't you think Yu Yu is looking for a partner?"

"You asked me?!"

Li Xuewu looked at Silly Zhu and said, "Are you and your sister enemies? Or are you two thousands of miles apart? I won't ask her, but you ask me?"

After saying that, he turned to look at the rain in the west room and asked loudly: "Rain! Hmm~...".

Yu Yu heard Li Xuewu's shout and turned around, only to see his brother covering Li Xuewu's mouth and struggling to prevent him from speaking.

"What are you doing?"

"It's okay, I urge you to hurry up~"

Silly Zhu pulled Li Xuewu's head hard, and when Yu Yu's words came back, he saw the girl turning her head and muttering "I'm sick", and then he let go of Li Xuewu's hand.

"You want to kill me, you!"

"You want to kill me, you!"

After Si Zhu said this, Li Xuewu also said something, gasped hard, glared at Si Zhu and said: "You save your life, if I had taken action just now, you would have saved the money for hospitalization today."

"Stop bragging!"

Silly Zhu was cruel, then poked Li Xuewu and said: "Don't ask, if you ask, you will be quick-tempered and show your temper."

Seeing Yu Yu coming over with a teapot, Sha Zhu didn't dare to say anything more. He sat down and chirped with Li Xuewu, telling him not to cause trouble for him.

Li Xuewu rolled his eyes and was too lazy to talk to him. Seeing Yu Yu pouring tea into his cup, he smiled and said thank you.

Yu Yu put down the teapot and thought for a while, looked at Li Xuewu and said: "Let you take advantage. From now on, don't call me sister, just call me sister."

"Okay big sister"

"you!"

Seeing that Li Xuewu was still teasing himself, Yu Yu couldn't help but glared, looked at Li Xuewu's clothes and said angrily: "Look, you are dressed like an old man and you call me eldest sister. You don't think so, but I don't think so!"

"Haha, I look like an old man?"

Li Xuewu looked at what he was wearing. When did Bai Jiahei look like an old man?

“Similar temperament!”

Yuyu tugged at the corner of his mouth, and then pointed at Li Xuewu with his finger. His threatening look was obvious, and he returned to the kitchen with a fierce look.

Li Xuewu turned to look at Shazhu, raised his eyebrows and said: "I know some teachers from sports schools, the ones who are particularly good at playing. I think they are particularly suitable for rain."

"What do you mean?!"

Silly Zhu was still thinking about what his sister said about letting Li Xuewu take advantage, but when he heard Li Xuewu say this, he didn't want to do it now.

Silly Zhu looked at Li Xuewu speechlessly, then sighed helplessly and asked: "Do you have anything to do with the police investigation? The teacher is now... ahem, I think the police investigation is okay."

Li Xuewu took a sip of tea and said with a grimace: "As you know, I'm at the branch."

Silly Zhu nodded and said, "I asked you because I knew you were in the branch."

Li Xuewu put down his teacup and looked at Shazhu and said: "It is precisely because I work in the branch that I understand the hard work of police investigations. Let's not cause trouble for them."

"..."

Silly Zhu was speechless. He thought Li Xuewu was in trouble for his sister, but he didn't expect that it was because of the police investigation.

Is your sister so unbearable?

Are you still in trouble for the police?

------------------

Dinner was eaten in the back room. It was almost seven o'clock when we came back, and Zhao Yafang didn't light a fire because of Delia's instructions.

It's hot and it's summer, so it would be better if the room is cooler.

In the past, her mother-in-law would always use the South House pot and stove to cook. She went to sleep with her mother-in-law in her room, leaving the South House kang empty.

There are only a few girls left in the house, and there is still room for everyone to sleep on the kang.

Ji Yuxiu had been sleeping in the east courtyard because of her schedule. Regardless of whether she came back or not, Liu Yin went to burn the kang every three or two days to avoid moisture.

This is the case with new houses. There is more moisture on the floor, kang surface, and walls.

Liu Yin didn't need to worry about the backyard. Yu Li would go there from time to time, and Li Xue would sometimes go there to work at night.

Liu Yin, Zhao Yafang and Li Xue are the only ones living at home. The three mothers have a clear division of labor. One goes to work, one takes care of the baby, and the other takes care of the housework.

At night, it was Liu Yin who prepared rings and small clothes for her grandchildren.

It was calculated that the eldest daughter-in-law should be born in the twelfth lunar month and the second daughter-in-law should be born in the first lunar month. There is about three months difference between them.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It was precisely because Zhao Yafang and Gu Ning were married that Li Xuewu asked his mother to go to the mountains to take a look while she was not busy, so that she could rest assured.

Otherwise, I would spend the whole day taking care of the house and not go up the mountain to see the father and son. After all, they would be thinking about him.

In fact, when it comes to going to the mountains, Lao Biaozi goes to the mountains every week, but his mother is reluctant to leave home and her eldest daughter-in-law.

The mountain is the eldest daughter-in-law's natal family. When I went up the mountain, my in-laws asked me about it. After all, it was not a problem to leave my daughter-in-law alone at home.

After all, it is an old man's thought. There is really nothing to argue with when young people like Li Xuewu and Zhao Yafang think about it.

Don’t you have to worry about eating?

There are no days when the fire is allowed in the taizuo room. It is also about eating. The food in the taizuo room may not be as elaborate as at home, but how many exquisite meals can there be in this era?

Zhao Yafang also took advantage of Li Shu. Li Shu was not at home, so she ate more than half of the eggs Banggeng brought.

Li Xuewu didn't want to keep any for his family. Lao Biaozi also pulled eggs down from the mountain. Li Shu and Gu Ning had enough to eat.

Maybe Zhao Yafang is a little embarrassed because she doesn't eat enough eggs to eat one a day.

After returning from dinner, Li Xue carried her bag to the backyard as usual, and Gu Ning and the old lady carried Li Shu and Zhao Yafang back home.

Just now at the dinner table, the topic of replenishing the health of Zhao Yafang and Gu Ning was mentioned. When she came back, the old lady told Zhao Yafang to pay attention to her eating habits.

After all, it is a family of traditional Chinese medicine, which has inheritance and theoretical support for health preservation, maintenance, and fetal care.

Gu Ning sat sideways on the kang, watching Li Shu wearing small cloth shoes and having fun on the kang. He said to Zhao Yafang who was sitting at the head of the kang: "I have eggs at home. He often brings them home. You are here."

Tell mom to cook it and eat it."

Zhao Yafang smiled and said: "It's enough to eat. As much as you can eat, let mom pickle some and wait for the New Year."

"Goodbye now"

Gu Ning picked up Li Shu, who ran over to talk to her, and replied: "There are people who celebrate the New Year. It is the children who are affected by your loss of body."

While talking, he helped Li Shu adjust her crooked crotchless pants, took her car, rolled it in the kang, and played with the children.

The old lady smiled happily when she saw that the two sisters got along well with each other. She sat on the kang and looked after Li Shu while listening to their conversation.

Gu Ning didn't talk much when she was at home. She basically talked to Li Xuewu and only said a few words to her every day.

When you come back here, you will catch up with things, or you will talk more when you have a topic to talk about. Otherwise, you will be like a stuffy gourd who only listens to what others say.

Zhao Yafang is an eloquent person. They both have similar knowledge and status, and they can talk about something in common. Unlike her old lady, she only talks about things in the courtyard.

Gu Ning and Zhao Yafang didn't talk that much. They chatted wordlessly. They both went to college and had serious jobs and identities, but their family backgrounds and life concepts were different since they were young.

Woolen cloth.

Now others don't think that Liu Yin thinks that Li Shun is right to choose the eldest son to provide for him in his old age. It has to do with the eldest son's temperament and the family background of the eldest daughter-in-law.

Needless to say, I would not choose the middle child even if I were to choose him. Although he has the best life and the best job, his temperament and personality are not what the old man says, nor is he calm and easy-going, so we can't live together.

Although the second child is acting filial now, he will listen to what you say, and whether he does it or not, it won’t be him. Are you angry or not?

The same goes for the second daughter-in-law. She is indeed a good wife, but she is not suitable for living together.

Aloofness is not a temper, but a character that has been developed over a long period of time. Gu Ning's living situation since he was a child is not directed at them.

But in their view, the second daughter-in-law is a standard child from a high-ranking cadre family in the city. Maybe the younger couple are both cadres, and their life together is very smooth, but it is different with the old man.

Even the old ladies living there sometimes can't stand it, let alone when several generations live under the same roof.

There are ideological differences in living habits, daily consumption, food, clothing, housing and transportation.

This is true for the second child's family, and even more so for the third child's family. Ji Yuxiu grew up doted on by her parents and loved by her brother.

Maybe it was because he was young and easy to fool around with. When he got older, let alone Ji Yuxiu, even the third scholar wouldn't be able to stand their family's traditional life concepts, let alone Ji Yuxiu.

As the external environment changes, the concepts and ideas of traditional families are also changing.

Young people are more likely to accept new ideas, new concepts, and new lives, while older people are slower to accept, or more defensive.

Old people have experienced a lot and are prepared for the pitfalls of life and have a happy-go-lucky attitude. Naturally, they don’t have the same ideas of advancement and risk-taking that young people do.

If the two conflict, naturally neither of them will live comfortably.

The reason why most people choose the eldest brother for retirement at this time is that by the time they are old, the eldest brother will basically be middle-aged and can already feel the crises and defenses they once felt.

It is easier to communicate and understand. Liu Yin said that the second reason why Li Shun chose the eldest son is that he has the eldest daughter-in-law.

Of the three daughters-in-law, two are high-ranking cadres. Only Zhao Yafang is from a rural background. Although she has received higher education, she is still a rural person at heart and in life, and still has a rural mindset in life.

The qualities of diligence, thrift, honesty, filial piety and respect are all engraved in her bones. She also bears the responsibility of the eldest daughter-in-law, so she naturally treats the elderly more politely than the other two daughters-in-law.

The old lady came here like this, so she understood Liu Yin's thoughts very well, and her attitude towards Zhao Yafang was different from that of other grandsons-in-law.

There is respect for the eldest daughter-in-law, and there is also reliance on the future head of the family.

Family is a very warm place, but it also has a realistic side. Since it is determined that the eldest son will support the family in old age, then the eldest daughter-in-law will naturally be designated as the future person in charge of the Li family.

There is no need to fight or fight over this. It has the advantage of having the right to speak and the responsibility of being a family member.

Zhao Yafang has actually assumed part of the decision-making power in the family now, and Liu Yin also intends to let go of the family affairs and let the eldest daughter-in-law take the final decision.

In fact, this is what the eldest daughter-in-law should have after marrying her, but at that time, Zhao Yafang only wanted to go out and live alone without being involved by the old man.

After the marriage, I did not receive the account books and keys from my mother-in-law. I thought that my brother-in-law also went to college, my second brother-in-law was still serving as a soldier outside, and my father-in-law and mother-in-law were not very old, so I had to wait.

What she was thinking was that if one of her second brother-in-law and brother-in-law planned to inherit the family business or offered to provide for her parents-in-law in their old age, she and Li Xuewen would move out.

Even if I live in a dormitory on campus, I don’t want to be crowded at home.

But who could have imagined that the plan did not change quickly. The original expectation was that the home would be very crowded, as crowded as the door opposite, but in less than half a year, there were four or five places in their home in this courtyard.

real estate.

Let's move in now, I can't live here anymore. My second brother-in-law even moved out after getting married, leaving three properties vacant in this courtyard.

Things are getting better now. Going around and around, there are not enough people living in the house to fit into one kang bed in one room.

She and Li Xuewen still had an empty apartment assigned to them at school, and they couldn't live there now. The housing issue they were worried about before has now become a burden.

The change of environment naturally determines the change of concept. Gradually, Zhao Yafang no longer resisted and declined the matter of providing for the elderly and being the head of the family. She accepted the keys and account books given by her mother-in-law, and she officially became a housekeeper's wife.

Speaking of which, this is just a traditional custom and ritual. Li Xuewu doesn’t know how much money the Li family can have and how much mobile assets they can have?

Don't ask, their family doesn't have jade bracelets like the Lou family's, and they don't have any gold or silver antiques, just daily wages and receipts.

It is necessary to have an account book. Regardless of whether the family is big or small, whether it is poor or rich, whether there are many people or few people, basically every family has an account book.

The amount of salary received this month, the amount of profit last month, the amount of debt owed, and the daily expenses this month will all be recorded in this book for reflection and verification.

When you buy a pen, order a magazine, repair your shoes, or buy groceries, you have to register everything, and every payment goes in. People's days are all recorded in the ledger.

The housekeeper's wife is in charge of accounts and money. If she says she can buy this, she can buy that. If she says the living expenses for this month are not enough and she can't buy it, then she can't buy it.

The man and the rest of the family only have to make money and make demands. As for spending money and buying things, they have to go through the hands of the housekeeper and his wife.

In the early days, this authority was also given to the daughter-in-law of the housekeeper who had just moved in. She continued to manage her daughter until she was thirteen or fourteen years old. When she became sensible, she had to teach her how to be a housekeeper.

Regardless of whether the daughter leaves the palace or not, as soon as the eldest daughter-in-law comes in, the keys and account books of the money bank must be handed over from the mother-in-law to the new daughter-in-law.

There is no time to relax, usually on the second day of the wedding when the new daughter-in-law kowtows to her parents-in-law, offers tea, and receives the keys and account books.

Normally, a new daughter-in-law has already learned housekeeping skills from her mother at home for several years, and will not be frightened or numb.

This is why people in the early days paid attention to having a well-matched family. It was difficult for a girl without a mother to find a wife from her husband's family, as she was said to be uneducated.

Of course, this upbringing does not only refer to quality and character, but also includes the ability to manage life and family chores.

In this era, the traditions of the older generation have been preserved. Every family is not living in affluence, and living frugally and frugally is the main theme of all families.

There is an account in the box, no one feels at a loss, and everyone, old and young, also has a score in their hearts.

The Li family is naturally good, everyone is doing something good, everyone can make money, there is a lot of money in the box, and there are few calculations.

When the eldest daughter-in-law got married and did not receive the ledger, she collected her own wages. It was not until this year that she received the keys and ledger from her mother-in-law that she and Li Xuewen's wages were transferred to the public ledger.

Not to mention Li Shun's salary, he has always been the mainstay of the family and has always provided for the family. He is the most selfless person and the person with the highest say in the family.

During this period, the traditional family formed a strange power structure. On major matters, it became a situation where the father-in-law and the principal's daughter-in-law discussed the matter.

The father-in-law takes care of things, has a big picture view, and has life experience, while the daughter-in-law controls the money, can manage small matters, and is diligent and thrifty in running the house. This structure balances the voice of the previous generation and the next generation.

The father-in-law can beat and scold his son, but he cannot beat and scold his daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law can quarrel with her mother-in-law, but she cannot openly and scold her father-in-law.

The two of them respect each other, so this matter is easier to discuss and make a decision.

Otherwise, traditional things are not necessarily bad, sometimes there are some great principles in them.

In the Li family, except for Li Xuecai, who does not work to earn wages, only Liu Yin and the old lady do not earn money.

But Liu Yin has to do housework, and the old lady has to take care of her children and grandchildren. They all have their own responsibilities that they should do at their respective ages.

There should have been a share of Li Xue's salary in the money box, but after Zhao Yafang got married, her mother-in-law allowed her to manage her own salary. How could she ask for living expenses from her sister-in-law now?

Without waiting for her mother-in-law to speak, Zhao Yafang told her mother-in-law as early as after Li Xue went to work that her sister-in-law would have to find her husband's family in the future. The dowry due from her parents-in-law would not be counted. The dowry given by her brother and sister-in-law would be separate. She would collect her own salary.

If you keep it, it's your own money.

Ordinary people don't calculate their own money this way. Girls have to pay living expenses to their families when they go to work. It's the same as boys. They pay for every meal they eat.

After paying the living expenses, the girl decides by herself whether she should give her parents some pension money, or call it filial piety money, and the rest is called self-care money.

It seems that the Li family requires girls to eat and use the family's food without having to pay for living expenses and receive all the wages themselves. That is really rare.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xu is a powerful mother-in-law, the one who can do this by grabbing the money box and the ledger without letting go.

But the result of doing this is that the daughter-in-law and son are alienated from each other, the son also complains, and the whole family can no longer live in harmony.

In fact, Zhao Yafang thought more about it. She got along well with her sister-in-law, and despite the age difference, it was true that they were sisters.

Her father-in-law and mother-in-law are really nice to her family. They send rice and noodles to her. They get along really well with her. If she loses her heart, she will get a big slap from her father.

Another thing is that it is very easy for my father-in-law to earn a salary to support the family now. Although he still supports a brother-in-law, this brother-in-law is not hopeless. He will have a good job and a good life in the future and will not be a burden to her.

Things are going well now, and the future will be full of help and guidance.

In the past, she felt that she and Xuewen had good jobs and made a lot of money, so it would be absolutely comfortable to live a small life without them.

But after experiencing the trouble with the second brother Xuewu, the second brother-in-law bought bicycles for tickets and tried to find a house for them.

If something happened to Li Xuewen, he would have to ask his second brother-in-law to come forward and pick him up.

How could she not ask what happened that day? Li Xuewen told him that the second brother-in-law, with a gun in his hand, rescued him from a group of people. One of them was lying at the door. When he got to the gate, he chased and beat another one.

Zhao Yafang felt heartbroken when she heard this, but she felt at ease at the same time. She asked about the experiences of her colleagues in the school because she felt grateful to have such a pillar of her family who dared to take risks for her brothers.

Comparing her feelings with others, the slap from her father was not in vain, it completely woke her up.

Her younger brother was working under her second brother-in-law. After half a year, she saw that her liveliness had returned. She also had her own reasons for this.

My sister-in-law can eat a few meals at home, and her second brother-in-law buys clothes for her. She can only use a few feet of cloth at home, and she doesn’t even think about spending too much money on the family.

The father-in-law can still make money, the mother-in-law can still take care of the family, the old lady can still take care of the children, how can she do such stupid things?

She offered to take care of her sister-in-law and did not receive any income from Li Xue's work. This not only won her mother-in-law's love and care for her daughter, but also made her family aware of her generosity.

Even if Li Xue was charged ten or twenty yuan for living expenses, no matter how much more she could put in her box, it would still not be worth the value of the things her second brother-in-law brought home.

The eggs sent from the backyard were not money, and they were not public chickens. They were raised by the second brother-in-law who separated the family before they got married, and the eggs were laid for Li Shu to eat.

Now Li Shu has taken her home to raise her, and her second brother-in-law is a capable person, so there is no need to worry about eggs. She is pregnant again, so her mother-in-law cooked it for her.

But while eating the eggs, she had to think about it, did Li Shu really stop eating? Didn't her second brother-in-law tell her sister-in-law Gu Ning that the eggs were for her to replenish her health, and Li Shu's eggs were eaten separately.

Everyone in this family is making money, everyone is self-motivated, one person is actively contributing, and two people are thinking about the family. The old man is impartial, and there is no one in this family who is a troublemaker. Everything is going well for the family.

There is no need to argue or compare, no one's family is doing badly. It is normal for the parents-in-law to care about the children who are separated, and it is also appropriate to greet the children who are still young. She is not at a disadvantage now, and these brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law can still be together in the future.

Let her lose money?

This time when we went up the mountain, it was said that the third daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law were going to see their father-in-law and the third child, and Kazuya wanted to bring a gift to her parents' family.

They looked at each other, and sometimes her mother-in-law was a bit more powerful, but she always thought about them. Zhao Yafang stayed at home for a long time, and she had more to think about.

Sitting on the Kang, watching the old lady laugh, he also laughed and teased the naughty Li Shu.

Li Shu is happy today. She is happy all the way back, happy to eat, and happy to play in the evening.

Even the little ones know the taste of longing, and they know that they miss their loved ones in their stomachs.

------------------

After finishing their meal in the dining room, Li Xuewu and others made a place for the boys. Everyone was waiting to use the big dining table to study.

Maybe it's because the atmosphere here is good, or maybe it's because he's a good teacher, but He Yuyu is also used to reading in the east room at night.

Sometimes when the kids had something they didn't understand, they would always ask Yuyu for advice. She actually became addicted to being a teacher.

In fact, it is Zhao Yafang who preaches the most and is the most knowledgeable. Because she is free at home, sometimes she comes here to sit for a while after dinner, mainly talking to Yu Li and Delia.

It's really boring. There are only so many people in this courtyard. Ever since the "banggeng explosion" happened in the front courtyard, no one came to sit here because the third uncle pretended to be crazy. They all went to the middle courtyard.

The Li family was also happy to be quiet, and Zhao Yafang mostly came here to sit and chat, while explaining knowledge to the boys.

Teachers all have some habits and addictions. If someone is eager to learn, she will take the initiative to ask questions, and she will also become interested in teaching.

The boys were taught by Yu Yu every day, and Zhao Yafang often taught them, so their knowledge improved very quickly.

Li Xuewu and the others set up a Kang table in the west room, Yu Li prepared tea, and each held a cup and held a small meeting here.

Lao Biaozi was not there. The second master said that he had not seen this guy since the afternoon, the car did not move, and he did not go up the mountain.

According to Li Xuewu's thinking, the big-breasted brother said that he would do it as soon as possible, so tonight he would either investigate or take action.

Since everything was left to him, Li Xuewu didn't worry and just waited for the news at home.

Everyone in the room except Lao Biaozi was there. Li Xuewu rarely had time, so he was ready to listen carefully to how to work in the next stage.

At the recycling bin, grandpa is still in charge of the furniture and accounts, second master is in charge of the counter and antiques, and Guodong is in charge of all junk business, including delivery to the scrap company.

The second child is also training to learn business-to-business transactions from Lao Biaozi. The main reason is that a large number of stable customers are gradually developing. Supplying these families is enough to cover all the expenses of the recycling station, so he cannot let go.

Another thing is that part of the business-to-business business can be spared to supply these customers. Now the VIP business products are much richer than before.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As the wind blows more and more fiercely, the market is becoming more and more tense. According to what Lao Biaozi asked, the pigeon market is not very convenient.

Yes, from time to time someone comes to spy on the inside story, which is not a good thing.

Therefore, the VIP clientele has been growing steadily. Erhaier is busy with these things every day. At the same time, he also gives Lao Biaozi a shortcut and gets in touch with the business there.

The sales department still has the original layout, with Xiaoyan and Er Ye standing at the counter, responsible for recycling and selling second-hand goods.

Yu Li, along with Delia and Wang Yamei, are in charge of the business of the thrift store, while also supporting Xiaoyan and Erye.

When arranging three people, I still want to have more manpower and have time to rest. This is also because there are many things at the recycling station, and logistics cannot be guaranteed without a small number of people.

Someone has to go back and cook three meals a day, and someone has to clean the house and tidy the yard.

These are the only people sitting in the room now. Wang Yamei is not here. Yu Li said she was taking a day off to rest today. Silly Zhu even joked about whether the two of them had gone out to have sex, which earned Delia a glare.

Those who are at home are these people, and those who are not at home are from several directions. Third uncle Wen Saner is in Steel City with his wife and children, and he also has the top three of the Thirteen Taibao at hand.

The little bastard Zhou Changli led two groups of about a hundred people to work there, while Zhang Wanhe, who came down from the mountain, led Da Qiangzi and more than 40 people to work in the steel city.

Xilin and Ge Lin, together with Ding Wanqiu, run a small buying station in Jicheng that connects China Unicom Mountain and Steel City. It is inconspicuous, but it is very important.

Finally, there is the First Prison, which is the production base of the recycling station, papermaking, printing, engraving, tailoring, leather, electronics, and the newly developed Xicheng Third Prison, which provides carpentry and printing services.

Brother Xuewen is in charge of electronic teaching and training there, and Teacher Wu has agreed to take care of these businesses and supervise financial work there.

Next, my sister-in-law Zhao Yafang will also take care of the finance here and the financial business of the first prison, forming a complete closed loop for all the business.

Li Xuewu took a puff of cigarette and sat at the kang table, listening to Shen Guodong reporting on the business and work of the recycling station with a notebook, as if starting a guild in the workplace.

In fact, it is the same thing. Listening to Shen Guodong talking about how much junk he collected and sold this month, he analyzed the current market conditions, what are the environmental factors, how to judge the situation, how to avoid risks, and the focus of the next step.

What is.

These are all what Li Xuewu asked him to do, which can be regarded as laying a foundation for future development.

Shen Guodong doesn't have any college education, writing and arithmetic are no problem, and he is more than capable of managing the waste collection business.

But that's all he pursued. He just wanted to be rich and content, as long as he had food to eat and a full stomach.

Li Xuewu, on the other hand, dealt with him twice, telling him to withdraw his shares if he didn't want to do it. He also cleaned up his house and found him a job so that he could live a stable life with Xiaoyan.

Not to mention, when Li Xuewu punished him like this, he really wanted to do it, but when he went back and mentioned it to Xiaoyan, Xiaoyaner refused to do it.

I can't make as much money at work as I do now, and it's not as fulfilling and comfortable as it is now. I work for my company, with the bosses watching over me and my colleagues below me jostling around. Who knows what I'm going to do.

Following Brother Wu in her career, apart from anything else, she didn't lose money to them. In the sales department, she was just like at home. She was in a good mood and earned a lot of money. She didn't want to suffer outsiders.

Seeing that he didn't have an ideal look, Xiaoyan even said that she didn't expect to be as grand as Brother Wu when they got married, but there had to be someone in the family who could lead the family.

This put Shen Guodong in a dilemma. He wanted to prepare a box of firecrackers for Xiaoyan, but he was afraid that Xiaoyan wouldn't let him go home.

What is a loudspeaker? It's a car. It can't be a broken bicycle or a karaka.

At this time, no one dares to think that their family can buy a car when they get married, even the cadre family. He knows that Xiaoyan is making things difficult for him.

But Xiaoyan said, you don’t dare to think about it, but Brother Wu has done it. There used to be cars in the recycling bin?

Now there is either a GAZ 69 small truck or a big truck, but Brother Wu also has a Willys at home.

Shen Guodong wanted to say that he couldn't compete with Brother Wu, but after asking Brother Wu, he found that Willis Steel Rolling Mill was also for sale. The cost of one unit was less than a thousand yuan. He could buy it after saving for a few years. .

Xiao Yan'er is still young, and it will take three or four years before she gets married, so it's really not a problem.

Dividends?

No, Brother Wu said, don’t think about dividends in the short term. You still have to invest in the future. You are not short of money for the time being, just get enough salary to live on.

So now he can only live on his salary. Fortunately, he has a big house. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all taken care of here. He can just go to work.

With his ideal life and his ambition, he no longer dared to mention to Brother Wu about finding a class to wait for retirement.

With his ambition, he became more focused on business management and took over all the shabby businesses, which made it much easier for Lao Biaozi.

Especially now that the boys are learning to drive, there are more drivers in the courtyard, making it much more convenient to use cars.

After Shen Guodong finished his report, his grandfather began to report. He also used a notebook and talked about the recycling and sales of furniture. The recent focus of work is still on the furniture production of Xicheng No. 3 Prison.

Wooden brackets and glass flowers are the best-selling coffee tables and are also the most popular products for newlywed families.

There are no imitations on the market yet, but the recycling bins are making a lot of money.

Li Xuewu listened to his grandfather saying that a large amount of old furniture had been cleared away, so he interrupted and asked: "Have you disposed of all the ones that third uncle collected?"

“Almost”

Grandpa put on his reading glasses, looked through the account book, raised his head and said to Li Xuewu: "Many of them were sent away by Biaozi, and the rest were all simple in style. They were modified and sold."

Li Xuewu knew that those things Lao Biaozi sent away were given to the club, and the club also transferred money there, so there was no bad debt.

Naturally, it is difficult to use those gorgeous furniture outside, but the club is not in danger. The world inside the gate is a collective unit after all. As long as people are fine, then everything is fine.

All regular employees in the club are reliable, while temporary employees have no say. The identities of members are all tied together, so who dares to say something will happen there.

"Have all the goods you got at the beginning of the year been processed?"

Li Xuewu looked at Mr. Ye. He was asking about the commodities seized during the crackdown on theft at the beginning of the year. There were only twenty to thirty thousand yuan in scattered items.

Ye Erye nodded without looking at the account book: "There are some bits and pieces left. Biaozi said they were put in the acquisition account. Last month, he settled the accounts with the street and also went to the street office to do it."

prove".

As he spoke, Mr. Ye opened his notebook again and introduced: "Some things are miscellaneous. They are needed when used and cannot be sold when not used. It will take several years to pay off if you hold on to them."

“No problem”

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "It's good to settle the matter, so you don't have to worry about it. If you collect things from the street or the warehouse of the department, you must pay in cash. Don't embarrass others."

The second master glanced at his grandpa and saw him nodding to indicate that he had nothing to introduce, so he started reporting on the sales department's business with his notebook.

The main thing is radios. Second-hand items of this kind are very scarce and very popular. People who are getting married or separated want to get this thing as a decoration.

Just because it's second-hand doesn't mean it can't be used. It was manipulated by Li Xuewen from the No. 1 Prison, so it can be used for a long time.

Because the second-hand parts are used less, there is support from Jinmen Electronics Factory, and new original parts can be purchased, which naturally saves the need to pick up old ones.

Like Wen San'er, he used the old ones to deal with them and stopped doing business to earn more money for repairs. He didn't have the manpower and didn't have the energy.

In addition to talking about what happened at the counter, the second master also talked about the old book paper and fiber materials among the waste that were sent to the First Prison for papermaking, and also talked about the current sales situation of books.

Surprisingly, the Little People's Book sells as well as the Red Book. The Red Book is mostly bought by young people and working people, while the Little People's Book is mostly bought by children.

The main reason is that the batch of short-form novels produced by No. 1 Prison and Huaqing Painting Academy are of high quality, the content is well edited, and the stories are interesting and educational.

The supply and marketing cooperatives are very tough and no one checks their goods, let alone the security brigade.

Because the sales department here bears the sign of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, it is quite safe.

During this period, it was rare for cultural items, especially written books, to sell well.

The main reason, Li Xuewu thought about it, was related to the main idea of ​​​​the villain's book, because all the stories and the characters in the propaganda first advertise that the core idea is upward.

Secondly, the core values ​​​​in the villain's book are all positive, professional and popular, which is in line with the current publicity needs.

What’s more, these sites sell little books and red books at the same time.

Not only these, but also red leather notebooks, pens, erasers, pencils and other stationery with printed slogans.

For example, the store at the Public Security Brigade also includes "cultural shirts", single-color vests or T-shirts with quotes and slogans printed on them.

In the end, it was Director Ma's care and the supply and marketing cooperative's endorsement. At this time, no one really came to trouble me.

It is also effective for Lao Biaozi to go to Director Ma's house for dinner every month. At least Li Xuewu can see that the recycling station is very stable.
