Chapter 838: Bamboo Cannon



A design assistant assists the designer in completing all tasks except design.

There are many trivial things to do, but it is precisely because of this that you can learn a lot, and by watching how designers design clothes, they will also learn it through osmosis.

The few people Jiang Xia picked were those who dressed well and worked diligently. In short, she thought they had potential.

The Guangzhou Trade Fair is about to begin, and the other two designers are too busy as they have to work with Jiang Xia's designs as well as their own.

Now that we have promoted several design assistants, things are much easier.

Now every designer has two assistants, and Jiang Xia has three assistants, who help her design winter wear, spring wear and handle other matters.

Jiang Xia was busy in the garment factory until 4:30 in the afternoon, then drove to the city to pick up Zhou Chenglei and go home together.

On the way back, Zhou Chenglei drove and Jiang Xia sat in the passenger seat: "Looks like I have to buy another car."

Zhou Chenglei finished his work at four o'clock today and waited for Jiang Xia in his father-in-law's office for almost an hour.

After finishing his work this week, Jiang's father will go to the neighboring province to take up his new post.

Zhou Chenglei asked, "What kind of car do you want to buy?"

"Let's buy a business car."

Sometimes Zhou Chenglei prefers to drive a business car when meeting clients.

Anyway, the family already has a Jeep, so there is no need to buy another one.

She had heard from Ruan Tang that Zhou Chengsen also planned to buy a car at the end of the year.

"good."

Business cars will be more comfortable, and they have air conditioning so it won't be a pain to go out in the hot summer. This time Zhou Chenglei plans to buy an imported car.

It would be a good idea to buy one and study it.

The level of automobile manufacturing in our country is still relatively backward.

The road to the city has been repaired, and now it only takes about half an hour to get back to the village.

When they got home, the triplets sat in the yard and watched their eldest and second brothers making bamboo cannons for their other brothers and sisters.

The adults repeatedly told the brothers and sisters not to let the triplets play with things like bamboo and sticks, for fear that they might accidentally poke their eyes.

So the triplets could only watch as their little brother and sister fought and made loud noises.

Their older brothers and sisters just wouldn’t let them play.

The triplets did not try to grab it, but just watched curiously.

The younger sister circled around her brothers and sisters, lying on their backs one by one, pointing at the bamboo cannon and shouting "Yiyayaya", "brother" and "sister", but no one gave it to her, so they used other things to fool her.

My brother watched without blinking.

Seeing his parents coming back, his brother immediately supported himself with his hands, stood up, and walked towards Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei.

Zhou Chenglei reached out and picked up his eldest son.

The older brother turned and pointed at his older brothers and sisters: "Dad, snap!"

He wants one too.

Jiang Xia gently pinched his son's little hand that was resting on Zhou Chenglei's shoulder: "Dabao, children can't play with that thing yet! It's easy to poke your eyes and then you won't be able to see."

Dabao looked back at his mother and held her fingers: "Mom, snap! snap!"

"Dabao wants it?"

"Um."

"Can we play again next year?"

"It's okay, I'll take him to play."

Zhou Chenglei: "Dad will make one for you and play with it for a while."

Dabao seldom makes requests on his own initiative, but this time he couldn’t wait and obviously liked it very much.

So Zhou Chenglei carried his eldest son to his nephews and nieces, and used bamboo to make a bamboo tube cannon for his son.

At this time, the younger brother and sister also noticed that their father had returned, and they stood up and came to their father.

Dad is more reliable, my brothers and sisters are not as good as him!

Jiang Xia looked at the four of them, father and son, smiled, and went to the kitchen to help cook.

Zhou Chenglei is always patient enough to make various things for the children.

He is a very patient father. Every day after work, he comes home to take care of his children because Jiang Xia once said that children are better raised and educated by their fathers.

"Mom, grandma, if there is any dish that has not been cooked, I will make it." Jiang Xia walked into the kitchen.

In summer, the sun doesn’t set until after seven o’clock, so it’s a little later to make dinner.

Grandma was lighting the fire and said with a smile, "No need, it's almost done."

The eldest son, the youngest son, and the daughter are all here, but the grandparents did not go back. They live in the Zhou family and continue to help take care of the children and do some housework.

My second aunt helped my second uncle sell fish in the city.

Zhou's mother was frying fish: "You are not needed here. You have been busy all day. Go and have a rest. You can eat when your father and others come back."

Father Zhou and Zhou Chengxin went to the town today to buy some food and fruits, preparing to sail out to the open sea on a new fishing boat.

Tian Caihua was also very active and went to several villages to harvest winter melons.

This is a large ocean-going fishing vessel that her family also owns! An ocean-going vessel that can earn tens of thousands of dollars per trip!

Tian Caihua came back alone with a cart full of winter melons: "Are these enough? There are fifty of them now."

Zhou Chengxin: "That's enough. We can't just eat winter melon. My dad and I also bought some potatoes, taro, pumpkin, yam, radish and other things in town."

Father Zhou: "Ahua, how much did you pay for the winter melon? I'll give it back to you."

Tian Caihua waved her hand: "No, it's not expensive. Winter melon is cheap."

They still owed the old man 400,000 yuan for this large fishing boat. After all, the boat was too expensive, and they and the second wife could not even afford it even if each of them paid one-third of the price.

Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia both said that they had paid first and they could just pay it back slowly in the future.

So Tian Caihua was particularly active. Since others had invested so much money, of course she had to be more active.

Jiang Xia is so generous, how could she be so stingy as to charge for a cart of winter melons?

It's hundreds of thousands of dollars. If you put it in the bank, the interest would probably be more than the money for a truckload of winter melons.

Moreover, now is the peak season for winter melon. There are especially many winter melons this year. They cost less than one cent per pound, only one or two cents per pound. I bought a cart of winter melons for just over twenty yuan.

"It's time to eat. Wash your hands and eat!" Zhou's mother and Jiang Xia came out of the kitchen with dishes and shouted for everyone to wash their hands and eat.

While they were eating, the weather forecast was broadcast on TV. It said that a typhoon was forming and was expected to land in their area in three days.

Tian Caihua frowned: "Why are there so many typhoons this summer? Do we have any chance to survive?"

They are always worried every time a typhoon comes, as they have eleven cages of fish!

There are also fish fillets for abalone and pearl oyster farming.

Zhou Chengxin: "The weather is not good. We have almost bought everything and now there is news of a typhoon. We don't know what level this typhoon will be."

He had never been out to the open sea. Originally, he thought that since Zhou Chenglei was at home during this period and he didn't have to look after the farm, he wanted to go out to the open sea and try his luck. For this purpose, he took a certificate exam last year.

Zhou's mother: "Although there are many typhoons, fortunately none of them landed near us in the end, so the impact was not great. This one will probably take a detour this time."

Tian Caihua: "Even if it doesn't land in our area, we still don't dare to go out to sea because we know there's a typhoon! We haven't made any money this month!" (End of this chapter)
