Chapter 387 The environment back then was different from now
Zhou Yong and accountant Li Baoshan and Sun greeted each other. Li Baotian asked them to go into the house. The two felt bored in the house and chose to chat in the yard.
Li Baotian went back to the house to wash his face and hands. When he came out, Li Baoshan and Accountant Sun were discussing future development trends.
Zhou Yong sat quietly listening. Li Baoshan believed that even if there was a big collapse, people's lives would not change much.
Accountant Sun doesn't think so. He believes that the national economy will develop rapidly.
Li Baotian's opinion is the same as that of Accountant Sun. Li Baoshan looked at Zhou Yong and asked him what he thought about future trends.
Zhou Yong is a person who knows where the future is heading, but he cannot speak too bluntly.
After some contemplation, Zhou Yong said, "It's hard to say what the future holds."
Li Baoshan curled his lips: "Stinky boy, how come you have become so cunning?"
Zhou Yong is not a cunning person, but there are some things he cannot say. After all, some things have not happened yet. If he tells everything, it will not be a good thing for him.
Li Baotian took over the conversation with a smile. Zhou Yong listened quietly for a moment, then he got up and went into the house.
Dinner was ready at home. Zhou Yong washed his hands. Li Jing'an came out and called Li Baotian and others to come in for dinner.
Li Baoshan and Accountant Sun came after dinner. They continued to chat in the yard while Li Baotian returned to the house.
They both went there at eight o'clock in the evening. The next day, Li Hongjun came to his third uncle's house early in the morning with a worried look on his face.
"Brother, what happened to you? Did you miss Chen Pingliang? Or did something else happen?"
Zhou Yong looked at the expression on Li Hongjun's face and couldn't help but ask.
Li Hongjun sighed, looked at Zhou Yong, and said weakly: "I have handed the notebook to Chen Pingliang. I sighed because of Li Dan and Cao Lai."
Zhou Yong frowned slightly: "Did the couple have a fight?"
Li Hongjun scratched his head and told Zhou Yong what happened.
Li Dan and Cao Lai are preparing to resign, and the couple plans to open their own restaurant.
This matter was strongly opposed by Cao Biao and Zhao Chunhua, but the young couple refused to listen and had a big fight with Cao Biao and his wife.
Li Hongjun also tried to persuade his daughter and son-in-law yesterday, but the couple refused to listen and kept saying they would submit their resignation today.
Cao Biao was furious and said that if the couple dared to do that, he would cut off all ties with them...
Zhou Yong frowned as he listened: "Sever ties? Did Lao Cao say that?"
Li Hongjun nodded: "He told me this himself. Although I know he was trying to scare the two children, this shows that Cao Biao was really angry..."
In Cao Biao's opinion, doing business involves certain risks and is not as safe as working.
Zhou Yong understood Cao Biao's idea, but he did not agree with him doing so.
"Zhou Yong, what do you think we should do about this? If they lose money in their business, how will they live in the future?"
Li Hongjun also disapproved of them opening a restaurant, and his idea was exactly the same as Cao Biao's.
Zhou Yong was thinking: "Brother, I am very interested in opening a restaurant."
Li Hongjun frowned: "Do you think you can make money by opening a restaurant?"
Zhou Yong nodded and analyzed the current situation with Li Hongjun.
It has been completely disintegrated. You no longer need to use money and tickets when you go to a restaurant. Gradually, more and more people will go to restaurants.
Li Hongjun listened to Zhou Yong's words, his brows furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly.
"Your analysis does make sense, but why do I feel so uncertain?"
Zhou Yong glanced at Li Hongjun and lowered his voice: "Brother, have you forgotten all about your speculation?"
Li Hongjun certainly hasn't forgotten: "The environment back then was different from what it is now."
They are different, but isn’t the purpose to make money?
Li Hongjun shut up, and Zhou Yong thought for a while: "I have thought about it. After the project dividends, I also want to start a business."
As soon as Zhou Yong said this, Li Hongjun immediately became excited.
"What kind of business do you want to start? We can do it together."
Zhou Yong's mouth twitched: "Didn't you just say that business was not going well? How come you changed your mind so quickly?"
Li Hongjun smiled and said, "Dandan and Cao Lai are just children. How can they compare with you?"
In Li Hongjun's opinion, there is nothing in this world that can stump Zhou Yong.
So he had already made up his mind that no matter what happened, he would hold on to Zhou Yong's thighs tightly.
Anyway, whatever Zhou Yong does is correct. In other words, he has blind trust in Zhou Yong.
Zhou Yong looked at Li Hongjun and chuckled, teasing his brother-in-law: "Brother, aren't you afraid that I will sell you out?"
Li Hongjun didn't take it seriously and laughed: "I am really looking forward to that day..."
Zhou Yong laughed along, and their laughter attracted Li Baotian over.
Li Hongjun told his third uncle about Li Dancao's coming, but Li Baotian did not express any opinion after hearing it.
In Li Baotian's words, he is old and it is good enough that he can take care of himself, and he can't ask about other things.
Zhou Yong admired this point about his father-in-law: he delegated power very thoroughly and said he would not interfere in worldly affairs, and he really did it.
Li Hongjun went back leisurely. It started drizzling outside while we were having breakfast.
After breakfast, Li Caiyun stood at the door and looked at the sky: "I really miss the days when it rained."
Since the third expansion of the brick factory, a brick drying area has been built, so even if it rains, it will not delay the workers' work.
Zhou Yong stood beside Li Caiyun: "If you don't want to go to work, take a day off."
Li Caiyun shook her head: "That won't work."
Even if you are a factory manager, you will have your salary deducted if you are absent from work without reason.
Zhou Yong went back to the bedroom, and Li Caiyun took her raincoat, packed up and left home.
It was eight o'clock when Zhou Yong went to the team. The office was unusually quiet today. Except for Sun Qing who was sorting out the accounts, everyone else was not in the office.
"What day is it today? Why are you the only one left?"
Sun Qing took a break from his busy schedule and looked up at Zhou Yong: "They all went down to inspect the work, and they will probably be back soon..."
There are many industries in the village, and it is impossible for Zhou Yong to do everything himself, so the village cadres conduct surprise inspections at irregular intervals every week.
Whether the hygiene of the canteens in each factory meets the standards, whether there are workers working while sick, and some safety hazards.
Once the above problems are discovered, the factory manager will have three months’ salary deducted and the workers involved will have one month’s salary deducted.
It is also under this kind of supervision that every on-the-job manager in the factories or other industries in the village dare not neglect their duties.
Zhou Yong sat down at his desk. Just as he opened the drawer, Zhang Dalong poked his head in.
"Brother, are you off duty today?"
Zhang Dalong smiled and nodded, and Zhou Yong motioned for him to sit down.
"Brother, what do you want to see me about?"
Zhang Dalong scratched his head: "I want Zhang Bao and his wife to move out and live on their own, but there are no vacant houses to buy in the village. So I came to the brigade to ask my brother-in-law if my family can build a house by ourselves..."
The brigade previously had a regulation that no one could build houses privately, but hasn’t that been completely dismantled now? Villagers believe some regulations should be abolished.
Zhang Dalong's words reminded Zhou Yong. He pondered for a while and said, "Brother, even if the big demolition is completed, the villagers may build houses privately. Regarding your family's matter, we will discuss it in a meeting and then give you an answer..."
