Chapter 536 New Era Department Store



After the elders had bought enough, Han Zheng drove to Huailuo Hutong and chopped twenty kilograms of meat and five kilograms of beef for his uncle's family. Yun Huaying also sent some meat to Lin Shan who was resting at home.

Lin Shan was lying at home resting. When she opened the door and saw her coming, she smiled and said, "Huaying, why are you here?"

"I went to the grand opening today, and business was booming. I asked Xiaojun to save some good meat for us and bring some to you." Yun Huaying put it on the table and asked her, "Is it feeling better?"

"I just slept at home this morning. I felt much better after waking up. I just cooked some porridge and didn't vomit after eating it."

Seeing that she looked much better than before, Lin Shan expressed her concern: "Huaying, you fainted before. Don't go out during this period. Rest more at home."

"Yeah, I'll get more rest."

Yun Huaying had just brought some fruit and said, "If you can't eat greasy and meaty food, eat more fruit. Eat an apple and two eggs every day."

Lin Shan nodded, asked her to sit down, and said to her, "Huaying, Li Bin has been very busy recently. He wants me to live with his grandfather. I don't want to trouble the elders. Besides, his cousin's wife just gave birth, and my grandmother is helping to take care of her. Everyone else has to go to work, and it will be very tiring for her to take care of me. I want my mother to come to Kyoto and ask her to come and help me prepare meals during this period. After the baby is born, ask her to help me take care of the child."

"Your mother hasn't reached retirement age yet. Will she be reluctant to work?"

"She must be reluctant to give up her job. After all, she only earns a little over 40 yuan a month. But she said before that if I need help, she would give up her job to help me."

Yun Huaying also felt that she needed a caregiver. After thinking for a moment, she said to her, "Let your mother come and take care of you first. You also wanted to bring your parents, brothers, and sisters-in-law to Jingdu to develop. If they are willing, I will help them find jobs. Your father is a senior technician, and it will be easy to find a job. Many factories will be vying for him, and the salary and benefits will definitely be better than in Jing County. As for your two brothers and sister-in-law, if they want to work in the pharmaceutical factory, they can choose the suitable job."

"Hanako, thank you."

Lin Shan was very touched. As long as her family members' work could be arranged, she would have the confidence to convince them.

"What are you thanking me for? I'm pregnant now, and all the work is on my cousin and Li Bin. I'm worried about you staying at home alone to take care of the baby."

The two talked for a while, and then the Han family's grandparents and grandchildren came up together. Lin Shan immediately got up to make tea for the elders. Everyone sat down and chatted for a while, and then returned to the compound before noon.

The jeep stopped at the door of the house. Han Zheng first helped his grandmother and daughter-in-law get out of the car, and then moved the things they bought into the house.

"Oh, Zhengzi, where did you buy this meat?"

When the neighbor next door asked about it, Han Zheng told her, "Aunt Yu, there's a big department store opening on Chaoxi Street. It opened today and has a lot of good stuff, including pork, beef, chicken, and duck. We just happened to be there so we bought some extra."

Aunt Yu saw that the pork he bought was at least four fingers thick with fat, and looked greasy. She hurriedly asked him, "How much is it?"

"The same price as the meat processing plant."

"Zhengzi, will there be any meat when you come back?" Aunt Yu asked again.

"Yes, I heard that they prepared forty pigs for the opening today. When I came back, there were still many people queuing up to get the meat."

"Oh, I'm going to buy some."

Aunt Yu immediately went home to get money, and soon came out with a bag. She called four or five neighbors and rushed to buy meat.

Their family bought over 100 kilograms of meat. Grandma Han chopped a few small pieces with a knife and divided the beef into several pieces. "Zhengzi, your Grandma Long and Grandma Xu haven't gone to buy any yet, so you can send some over to them and pack some of the tangerines you just bought."

"good."

When Han Zheng delivered the meat to Long's house, he met several neighbor grandmothers chatting. When they saw such good meat, they immediately went home to cook. After eating, they called a car and a group of old ladies rushed to grab the goods.

Business was booming in the first three days after opening, and the New Era Department Store quickly became famous.

He Jun has been very busy these days, and of course he is also very happy. He counts the money every night and is always so happy that he can't sleep.

Business was so good that they couldn't keep up with the supply. After only a week of opening, they came to the compound to ask Yun Huaying for help. As soon as they came in, they shouted, "Sister Ying, please save me."

"What's wrong?"

Yun Huaying is not idle at home either, she is working on the plan for the new factory.

He Jun politely greeted his elders before speaking to her: "The warehouse is out of stock. We can only hold out for three days at most. Hurry and find someone to help with the supply."

"It's gone so soon?" Yun Huaying was slightly surprised.

"Sister Ying, we all grew up in the south and underestimated the northerners' enthusiasm for stockpiling during the winter. You didn't see how frantically they grabbed food, pork, and vegetables. If my great-grandfather hadn't sent someone to calm the situation yesterday, they would have nearly overturned the meat stall."

Yun Huaying chuckled and promised him, "Okay, I'll contact my friends to transfer some supplies from other places, so you won't run out of stock."

He Jun knew she could deliver the goods in time, so he brought money with him when he came, and placed a large bag of cash on the table. "Sister Ying, I couldn't find time to settle the bill with you for the last batch of goods. I brought 20,000 yuan with me today. You can use it to purchase the goods first, and I'll find time to settle the bill with you later."

"good."

Yun Huaying accepted the money and said, "I'll contact you today and let you know when the goods arrive."

"Thank you so much." He Jun was very happy and told her, "My grandfather and my parents have been transferred to Kyoto and will arrive in a week. I also bought a house in Huailuo Hutong, which is only three or four hundred meters away from your house."

"I'll visit them again after they come over." Yun Huaying said with a smile.

"I'll pick you up then."

There was a lot going on in the department store, so He Jun didn't stay there for long. He sat for a while and then rode his bike back to work.

Only then did Grandma Han realize that the good goods in the department store were supplied by her granddaughter-in-law, and she asked, "Huaying, did you ask someone to get those goods?"

Yun Huaying nodded and lied without blushing or beating her heart: "These are all the connections my grandfather left me."

Given the Yun family's previous reputation, it was normal for them to have such connections. Grandma Han didn't think much about it and didn't ask any more questions. "Then you can call or send a telegram to the other party."

Han Zheng has been on a business trip these days. The trip will not be long and he will be back in three to five days. Yun Huaying prepared food and other things in advance. After he returned to Kyoto, she immediately called him to provide cover and sent another batch of goods to supply the department store.

Jiang Yuan has been going out early and coming back late every day recently. She goes out with Long Wei in the morning, takes her car to the department store, and then takes her car back in the evening after get off work. She is so busy every day that you rarely see her.
