Chapter 140 Departure After
the closing ceremony, teachers of each subject handed out and reviewed the examination papers, and began the formal examination tutorial.
After finishing her morning class at school, Meng Shulan went back to the dormitory to get her things and prepared to go home.
Hu Bifang hurriedly ate lunch, helped her get a quilt and a bamboo mat, and sent her back to the yard in town.
In the afternoon, Meng Shulan rode her bicycle back to the village to pack her luggage and prepare for tomorrow's trip.
By the time she packed her things and returned to town, it was almost dark.
Before dinner, Meng Changli called a meeting with the employees and told them that she was going to South City.
These things cannot be concealed, and there is no need to conceal them, so it is better to speak directly and clearly.
After she left, the store's affairs were managed by Shen Chengyuan, while He Jinqiu was still in charge of collecting money and keeping accounts.
Meng Changli also made a special trip to talk about the thief who broke into the yard the night before, and for the first time gave a lecture as a boss.
"Since everyone came from the village to help, I believe you can guess who climbed over the wall into my office without me saying anything. The police station is currently investigating, and I think it won't take long to find evidence and catch the person.
My sister and I are leaving tomorrow. We will be gone for at least ten days or half a month. Although we have hired someone to take care of us day and night, we still need everyone's joint efforts to keep the place safe.
There are some things I said when I signed the contract with you. Although we only have an ordinary employment relationship, if you work hard and seriously enough, and follow me, Meng Changli, wholeheartedly, I will never forget you if I become a team leader, a store manager, or get better opportunities in the future. After all, you are the first batch and the veterans.
Of course, these are just my expectations at the moment, and I can’t guarantee anything to you. I can only say that I will try my best.
If you have your own ideas, or someone offers you better conditions, you can also speak out directly. If you want to leave, leave. If you want to stay, stay. I won't force you. I just hope that you will not do the kind of thing that is in Cao's camp but your heart is in Han, and sell our news and situation to others. After all, we are from the same village, and it will be ugly if we quarrel.
At the same time, I also hope that everyone can be more careful and stop talking about what’s happening here.”
The night before yesterday, those people were able to enter her office quietly, and she even locked the door again, trying to make sure no one noticed.
Meng Changli felt that this matter was a bit strange.
Her office had just been separated, how did the Ye family know about it? Meng Changli had thought about it seriously in the past two days. It was impossible for there to be a traitor. It was most likely that someone in the hospital was trapped and accidentally told the truth.
The people from the Ye family are too sinister. We have to be on guard against them everywhere.
In the past, Meng Changli only wanted to do her own thing well, work hard to make money and expand her business.
Now it seems that this road is not as simple as she imagined. Not only does she have to do her career well, but she also has to use her brain to fight those sinister villains.
The meeting lasted more than an hour, after which Meng Changli began to pack her luggage.
With two children, she did all these things quietly.
My eldest daughter is almost five years old. She can listen a little and understand if you talk to her calmly.
At present, her youngest daughter is still only able to throw tantrums, so Meng Changli doesn't dare let her know that she will be away for so long.
At night, after the two children fell asleep, He Jinqiu took a small cloth bag and went to his daughter's office.
Meng Shulan was also here, having made some space for herself to study under the lamp.
Meng Changli is currently perfecting two other prototypes and will do as many as she can within the limited time.
After the family store opened, Meng Changli became the person in charge, while the financial affairs have always been in charge of He Jinqiu.
This time, He Jinqiu came to give money to his two daughters.
"After deducting the money we spent on the cloth we got from the city last time and this month's staff salaries, we still have over 500 left. You can take all of it."
More than 500 yuan is not a small sum of money in this day and age.
He Jinqiu originally wanted to pay back some of the bank loan before the New Year, but now it seems that is not possible.
For the two daughters to go to South City, the travel expenses, food and accommodation are all considerable.
It was more than 500 yuan, all the working capital of the store. Meng Changli did not refuse and accepted it directly.
It's not easy to go to South City. If possible, she will pick up the goods on the spot. There is no harm in bringing more money.
He Jinqiu held her two daughters' hands and said, "Remember, you must pay attention to safety!"
…
The next day, the sisters got up at dawn, had breakfast, and prepared to take a bus to the city.
I heard from Shen Chengyuan that there is only one train from the city to South City in the afternoon, and it will arrive there at around four in the morning the day after tomorrow.
It was still dark when we got off the bus, which was definitely not a good idea for two people who had never traveled far.
But there is no way. The current transportation is not well developed. It has only been opened up in recent years. More people are traveling there, and there are cars going there every day.
A few years ago, you had to wait for several days before a train went in that direction.
He Jinqiu followed behind to send her two daughters off.
When the mother and daughter were leaving, Shen Chengyuan also came over and helped carry the bag. The four of them went to the station together.
As the end of the year approaches and with the recent opening up to private businesses, more people are moving into the city.
It was just a coincidence that when the four of them got there, they ran into the Ye Feng brothers and Jose Jun.
It was obvious that these three men were going into the city, and most likely to get some cloth.
Before, because the Ye family couldn’t get the supply from the Meng family, they heard that Jose had found a way to the supply and marketing cooperative to get the fabric for their pants, so they didn’t have to go get it themselves. The goods were brought directly to them.
But the price is definitely not cheap, and there are no good colors, it’s very monotonous.
Now, the master chef Jose has started to head to the city. I think he wants to use the Meng family's supply channels and is ready to take action.
When Meng Changli saw the three people, she felt angry. Seeing that they were about to get on the bus, she strode forward and pushed the three people off.
Jose frowned and said "tsk", but said nothing and stood quietly aside.
What can I say? Even though she was not the thief, she still felt guilty.
After taking a seat, Meng Changli did not rush in, but pulled her sister up first, and said goodbye to He Jinqiu and Shen Chengyuan who came to see her off.
He Jinqiu didn't expect to meet the Ye family here, and was a little concerned.
Meng Changli said, "Some thieves and criminals. Don't worry, Mom. I can handle it."
Meng Changli's words had a hidden meaning, and it was clear that she was speaking to the three people from the Ye family.
He Jinqiu silently glanced at He Saijun who was staring elsewhere, nodded and stepped aside.
After the two sisters from the Meng family sat down and put their bags in place, the three members of the Ye family finally had a car to get on.
After a while, the car started moving.
He Jinqiu subconsciously followed a few steps and watched the car go away, even his heartbeat quickened.
Of course I'm worried, because my two daughters have never traveled far.
