Feng Haidong lived an unremarkable life and passed away peacefully. After his death, he found himself back in 1996.
Now in his prime at the age of thirty, Feng Haidong resolves to try just a ...
Since Feng Haidong had nothing to do around noon, after Sun Yongxing finished cooking, he simply joined Sun Yongxing and Zhao Hongxia in packing the food into clean bowls and delivering them to Tang Anguo and the others who were working.
Of course, when delivering the food, Feng Haidong also specially brought two cases of ice water from his restaurant's freezer to take with him to Tang Anguo and the others.
After all, it's already July, and it's still very hot to be working on the construction site outside.
However, Feng Haidong also noticed that summers now don't seem as hot as they were later.
After loading the food and water onto the tricycle, Feng Haidong personally pedaled the tricycle with Sun Yongxing and Zhao Hongxia to deliver the food.
When he dropped Feng Haidong off at his wife's workplace gate, the security guard there was already quite familiar with him.
"Haidong, why did you, the big boss, personally come to deliver the food?"
Feng Haidong responded with a smile: "I'm a boss who started out as a worker, so I definitely can't treat my coworkers badly. I'll make sure everyone has a good lunch, right?"
The gatekeeper laughed and said, "Haha, I like your personality, Haidong. You never argue with anyone, you can stick to your bottom line, and you never hide your past identity. You are a person who can accomplish great things."
Feng Haidong said, "Thank you for the compliment, sir. I never thought about doing anything big; I'm just a small business owner."
After chatting with the security guard, Feng Haidong rode his tricycle into his wife's workplace.
As soon as you enter the gate, you see Lu Yaobin and Tang Anguo standing together, holding blueprints in their hands and seemingly discussing something. Next to them are cutting machines and welding and grinding equipment.
Lu Feng followed the electrician who came to work and helped organize the laid wires.
The other workers were also busy with their own tasks.
It must be said that the workers that Tang Anguo found were all capable people.
In the past few days, no one has deliberately delayed anything.
Each day, we completed the assigned tasks, gradually building up the overall framework.
Some leaders from Lu Wanling's workplace also came to see for themselves. They witnessed the progress that Lu Yaobin and Tang Anguo were making with their team, leaving them speechless.
Especially after Tang Anguo and his team followed Feng Haidong's instructions to first make a lightbox, installed it, and showed the effect to Ding Huaixiao and the others, they received high praise from Ding Huaixiao and the other leaders, which made them realize Tang Anguo and his team's capabilities.
Feng Haidong rode his tricycle directly to his brother-in-law and Tang Anguo.
"Brother Tang, Yaobin, come on, let's eat first."
As he spoke, Feng Haidong said to Sun Yongxing and Zhao Hongxia, "Brother Sun, sister-in-law, please distribute the water to everyone first. It's been too hot at noon lately. Why don't we stop work at noon and resume after sunset? That should still be enough time for the project."
Sun Yongxing and Zhao Hongxia immediately took out the ice water and distributed it to the workers on site.
Everyone received the ice water and immediately felt a refreshing coolness.
One of the workers who came to work said to Feng Haidong with a smile, "Haidong, you're really a big boss now. You're even giving us ice water to cool us down."
Feng Haidong responded: "I'm not a big boss. I'm just like everyone else. We're still just coworkers. If the store wasn't so busy, I would definitely come and work with everyone. I'll definitely give out these ice waters. If you want ice cream, I'll order a few boxes tomorrow."
Hearing Feng Haidong's generosity, his fellow workers naturally agreed.
"Okay, there's ice cream."
"Yes, yes, ice cream is good."
"Give me the mung bean ice cream, it'll be even more refreshing."
Upon hearing this, Tang Anguo immediately said, "What are you doing? Do you think it was easy for Haidong to get this job for us? He's paying us wages and even providing us with meals. Can you please stop making so many demands? It's not easy for Haidong to earn his money."
The workers were all disgruntled when they heard this, and some even said it was a joke.
Seeing this, Feng Haidong said, "Brother Tang, everyone can tell us what they need. An ice cream doesn't cost much, it's no problem."
Tang Anguo said seriously, "Haidong, this isn't about money. I know you've made money now, but you shouldn't spend it like this."
There are still quite a few projects underway here. We're using pretty good materials, but since we lack experience, we're mostly figuring things out as we go. Inevitably, there will be a lot of waste material, which adds up to expenses. You've only received a deposit; if the expenses are too high, you'll need to pay for it out of your own pocket.
Tang Anguo said earnestly, "So we should save money wherever we can."
Feng Haidong was deeply moved after hearing Tang Anguo's words.
Feng Haidong understood that his senior brother was an honest person. He was not jealous of Feng Haidong's money. On the contrary, he understood that it was not easy for Feng Haidong to earn money, so he wanted to help Feng Haidong reduce unnecessary expenses.
Feng Haidong said earnestly, "Don't worry, senior brother, I will definitely pay attention to the expenses. So, we will still provide everyone with what they deserve. Food, ice water, and ice cream don't really cost much, and I will try my best to satisfy everyone."
Before Tang Anguo could offer any further advice, Feng Haidong interjected, "Brother Tang, I'm doing this for everyone's health. After all, health is the most important thing, and we can't let everyone's health collapse just to save money."
Lu Yaobin, standing nearby, added, "Yes, Brother Tang, my brother-in-law is doing this for everyone's health."
Seeing Tang Anguo hesitate, Feng Haidong said, "Brother Tang, just listen to me this time."
As he spoke, Feng Haidong took the food that Zhao Hongxia had served and handed it directly to Tang Anguo, saying, "Come on, let's eat first, Brother Tang."
Seeing the sincere expressions on Feng Haidong and Lu Yaobin's faces, Tang Anguo reached out to take the lunch.
Then Tang Anguo said to everyone, "Alright, everyone, let's eat first."
As soon as Tang Anguo spoke, everyone naturally put down their work for the time being, lined up to get food from Sun Yongxing and Zhao Hongxia, and sat together under the shade of a big tree not far away to eat and rest.
After everyone had served themselves their rice, Feng Haidong first asked Sun Yongxing and Zhao Hongxia to serve him rice and dishes, and he served himself rice and dishes last.
Then, Feng Haidong, his brother-in-law Lu Yaobin, and Tang Anguo ate and chatted together.
Tang Anguo took a few bites and said, "Haidong, I think the design of the entrance to the liquor market is a bit off. With the current plan, putting a ring of lights around the front of the sign will indeed make the sign very bright at night, but the words 'market' might still not stand out."
As Feng Haidong listened, he also glanced at the blueprints his brother-in-law had brought over.
After looking at it carefully for a while, Feng Haidong thought for a moment and said, "Could we do it like this? Make the inside of those words on the storefront hollow? Then we can install light bulbs inside the words. That way, when the lights are turned on at night, the words will light up, making the storefront even more eye-catching."
After listening to Feng Haidong's words, Tang Anguo and Lu Yaobin exchanged a glance.
The two exclaimed almost simultaneously, "That's a great idea!"
