Chapter 232 Conflict

While Ye Ziliang and his team continued filming, Liu Lan went to the warehouse next door.

Today is Monday

According to experience, cat food shipments are largest on Mondays because customers like to place orders on weekends. Liu Lan thought Liu Chengyu would come to help Zhang Pei, but when she entered the warehouse, she still only saw Zhang Pei and a few workers.

"Manman, you came at the right time. Please help me calculate this account. I have calculated it several times, but it doesn't add up. I don't know where I went wrong."

"Won't Dad help you?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, he has a new job," Zhang Pei said indifferently when mentioning Liu Chengyu.

"What job?"

"Just work as a handyman in a public institution," Zhang Pei said with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Liu Chengyu has officially been working for a week. His new job is quite leisurely. He is not considered late if he goes to work at 9:30 in the morning, and he is not considered early if he leaves work at 4 in the afternoon.

...

...

Zhang Pei used to think this kind of job was pretty good, so she hoped that Liu Lan would find the same type of job, with no pressure, flexible hours, and stability, but with a lower salary.

But when her husband got her dream job, she just couldn't stand him.

Liu Chengyu had just arrived and was busy every day trying to establish good personnel relationships in his new unit and curry favor with other people, for fear that others would know about his previous mistakes.

Even though he knew that Zhang Pei went out earlier and came back later than him, he never thought of coming to the warehouse to help Zhang Pei.

Zhang Pei had told him about her and Liu Lan's career. He knew that Zhang Pei's job was to manage several migrant workers and work with them to pack cat food for shipment.

Is it necessary for him to do such low-level labor without any technical skills? Liu Chengyu was a graduate of a prestigious university in his early years. Before the accident, he was still a small cadre. He still puts on the airs of a cadre and disdains to work with migrant workers.

Moreover, when he saw Zhang Pei looking energetic and full of energy every day, he felt that her job must not be hard, because when she was a full-time housewife, her condition was not as good as it is now.

His top priority is to gain a firm foothold in the new unit and find ways to get a promotion and a pay raise, rather than running off to do the work of a migrant worker.

Zhang Pei was furious when she thought that Liu Chengyu didn't go to work on weekends and would rather sleep at home than come to help, but she did not show her dissatisfaction with her husband in front of Liu Lan.

After all, she had spent all her money, borrowed money from everywhere, and even caused Liu Lan to suffer with her, and she had finally managed to get this man out.

Liu Lan had no idea of ​​the complicated thoughts in Zhang Pei's mind. She had already helped Zhang Pei to sort out the accounts and carefully checked the total bill for this period. Only half of July had passed, and their profit had already reached 70,000.

At this time, Zhang Pei also mentioned the idea of ​​expanding the warehouse. "Our warehouse is too small. The goods that arrive from Hong Kong every Friday are basically sold out on Monday. From Tuesday to Thursday, we have no goods to ship."

Looking around, there were indeed only cardboard boxes and a few bags of bulk cat food left in the warehouse.

"But we don't have enough money right now," Liu said, "We still have to pay Attorney Li 150,000 yuan in legal fees at the end of the month."

She did not forget the agreement with Li Shuhua. They agreed that after Liu Chengyu was released, the lawyer's fees would be paid by the end of the month at the latest. The 70,000 plus the 20,000 she paid for recording the theme song was only 90,000, and she still had a shortfall of 60,000.

If there are no problems with the business, then I will definitely be able to earn the remaining 60,000 by the end of the month.

Hearing the word "attorney fees", Zhang Pei sneered.

"We don't have to help your father pay this money. He is capable and tough. He can do it on his own."

Liu Lan frowned. She felt that Zhang Pei was speaking in anger, as if she had had an argument with Liu Chengyu.

She did not take Zhang Pei's words seriously because she felt that Liu Chengyu could not afford the 150,000 yuan legal fee.

Zhang Pei said sternly, "You really don't need to worry about him. Use the money you have to rent a bigger warehouse. Only with a bigger warehouse can we make more money and expand our business."

After five days of continuous filming, Ye Ziliang gave everyone a day off to rest. He also had to go back to the TV station to report his work progress to his superiors.
