Chapter 35: Prepare for a Rainy Day
Jiang Qian'an walked into the shop again, unable to suppress the joy on his face.
“You can actually get in through some other place!”
"Of course!"
Chen Jinyue was also very happy. After all, with the transportation problem solved, their needs might increase. "But why did you go out for so long?"
The smile on the young man's face faded a little. "There aren't many people in the east of the city. The whole street has been torn down and burned as firewood."
Chen Jinyue pursed his lips with a heavy feeling as he thought about the border scene he had seen for a few seconds.
"Will the situation in Xiurong City be better?" she changed the subject.
Jiang Qi'an shook his head. "Not much better, but Xiurong City is bigger. Before it was occupied by the barbarians, it was lined with shops and the streets were prosperous."
Chen Jinyue continued to ask thoughtfully, "Are there many survivors in the city?"
"Not many, only about 80,000." Jiang Qian'an's voice was dark. "Xiurong City is the largest city on the border, and it has the highest population concentration. After the barbarians invaded, they slaughtered the people in the city and used them as their food reserves."
Chen Jinyue, “…”
She turned pale.
She had learned about these things from history.
The Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties was a chaotic era with corrupt social morals.
Due to long-term wars and regime changes, people lived in extreme hardship. Nomadic peoples from the north invaded and abducted and killed people for food.
But historical records are one thing, and hearing it with your own ears is another kind of shock...
"Miss Chen, all the valuables are here. Could you help me send some quilts out first, and I'll come back later to get the rest and some dry food?" Jiang Qian'an seemed reluctant to mention this and pushed the two boxes over.
Chen Jinyue opened it and took a look. This time he gave a box of bronzeware and a box of textiles and embroidery.
The moment she saw the weaving and embroidery, her discomfort faded. "Of course, come and see the thickness of the quilts. They're all ten-pound quilts, a total of fifty thousand..."
Chen Jinyue took apart one and showed it to him. It was a space quilt.
Jiang Qi'an's clear eyes sparkled. "This quilt is so soft and light! But it feels so warm!"
Chen Jinyue replied, "Yes, it's much lighter and softer than a cotton quilt. Do you think ten kilograms is enough? If not, I'll increase the weight for you next time."
If it is custom-made in your own factory, it will be more operational.
Jiang Qi'an weighed the quilt and said, "This one is already much better than ours, but it would be even better if it could be thicker."
The border is unusually cold this year.
"For the next batch of heavier quilts, I'll give you double the price today."
Chen Jinyue paused for several seconds before overcoming his desire and holding on to his remaining conscience. "What you gave me is enough for me to make you two more batches of quilts. You don't have to pay extra money next time."
Jiang Qian'an glanced at her, then looked at the two boxes of items, as if trying to guess the reason.
"You gave us embroidery this time, which has never happened before. In my opinion, it is of great value." Chen Jinyue simply told him directly.
Jiang Qi'an nodded, "I understand."
Miss Chen likes new things.
"Do we still need to collect the wood blocks from before?" he asked.
"Yes!" Chen Jinyue thought for a moment, "Collect whatever you find. I'll pay you next time. One box of wood blocks is worth one jade ruyi."
Jiang Qi'an was surprised, "!!!"
That thing is as valuable as the imperial gift?
If Chen Jinyue heard his doubts, he would definitely tell him, of course, it’s all thanks to this that you can get in!
Chen Jinyue helped him deliver 20,000 quilts. He would wait two hours before returning to Xiurong City to pick up the remaining 30,000 quilts and compressed biscuits.
As Jiang Qian'an stepped out of the door, quilts were delivered one after another behind him.
The soldiers were ecstatic when they saw this scene.
While tidying up quickly, they marveled at the quilt, which was so soft and light that they had never seen anything like it before.
Only three lieutenants and Xiao Chengyu quickly surrounded Jiang Qian'an and asked, "Your Highness! Can you enter through this shop?"
Jiang Qi'an smiled and nodded, "You can enter in Xiurong City in the future."
Xiao Chengyu widened his eyes in surprise. Guessing it was one thing, but getting it confirmed was another.
“That’s great!”
"Is there any special method?"
The deputy general, who was overjoyed, asked subconsciously.
As soon as I said it, I realized something was wrong.
Xiao Chengyu quickly stopped him, "How dare you! How dare you interfere in His Highness's affairs!"
"It's okay." Jiang Qian'an's voice was gentle and he was in a good mood to explain. "It's just that since I'm a regular customer of the store, Miss Chen has given me some special privileges."
And this privilege belongs exclusively to him, and his name is written on the identity card.
It's useless for others to take it...
Chen Jinyue sent Jiang Qian'an away. He heard that it would take him two hours to come back after he returned to Xiurong City.
That's four hours.
She decisively ordered takeout for herself and had dinner in the warehouse.
Staring at the white rice in the lunch box, Chen Jinyue couldn't help but think of what Jiang Qian'an had said about the tragic situation at the border.
Jiang Qian'an is very confident about the Emperor of Jiang State.
But Chen Jinyue is not very optimistic.
She made a lot of money from him. After paying taxes, repaying debts, and buying a car and a house, she still has about 70 million in cash.
Just be prepared for a rainy day and prepare a separate batch for them so that you don’t have to rush to buy medicine like last time.
She called the rice company and ordered another thousand tons of rice.
At the same time, the food processing factory was notified to allocate a production line to make semi-finished pasta.
It was within her financial means, so even if her estimate was wrong, she could afford the loss.
…
In the next few days, Chen Jinyue sent compressed biscuits to the other party twice, welcoming the resumption of work in the garment factory.
Rongjie Garment Factory was changed to Shengyu Garment Factory.
Enrich the country and benefit the people, and bring prosperity.
Except for the dozen or so relatives who were fired, all the more than one hundred workers chose to stay.
joke.
Chen Jinyue has been quite active recently.
The debt was completely paid off, all factory equipment was replaced, and the food processing plant officially started operation.
Everyone knew that she had met a noble person.
Chen Jinyue is about to turn things around!
On the first day of the factory's opening, the canteen added more dishes for the workers, with each person receiving three meat dishes, two vegetable dishes and one soup. The atmosphere in the factory was very harmonious.
Because their boss said that once the 60,000 quilts and 1,000 military sleeping bags were processed, he would invite everyone to a dinner at the Jingyang Hotel.
Each person will also be awarded a shopping card worth 500 yuan.
Not to mention that Jingyang Hotel is the only four-star hotel in the county, even this 500 yuan shopping card is enough to cheer everyone up and work harder.
However, all this harmony only lasted until the next day.
As soon as Chen Jinyue drove into the factory, he saw two uninvited guests.
Mr. Chen and Chen Jie.
The old man seemed to have aged ten years overnight. He no longer had the shrewdness he had when he plotted against her a few days ago. Now she could see some of the vicissitudes of life, the old man sending off the young man.
Chen Jie, on the other hand, was still wearing designer clothes, had a fashionable hairstyle, and looked rebellious.
It was as if the bankruptcy of the Chen family did not cause him any loss.
Isn’t it?
When Chen Jinyue was being chased for debt, he was living a life of luxury abroad with a huge sum of money...
Seeing the two of them coming towards them, she took out her phone and sent a message, "Chen Jie is back."
