Chapter 68: Plans Face Obstacles



Luo Qianyu picked up the preheated electric iron and was about to sit back in the chair to work, but was blocked by Lu Jiuchuan.

Without even looking at him, she pushed him aside and sat down.

Jiang Shili immediately followed two steps and pushed Lu Jiuchuan to the side:

"Brother Chuan, I don't need your help. Just sit aside."

He also didn't even look at Lu Jiuchuan.

Lu Jiuchuan returned to his original chair and sat back down, holding his breath in his chest, feeling very uncomfortable and blocked.

He wanted to close his eyes again, out of sight, out of mind, but his two ears kept standing up unruly. Finally, he stood up, holding his hands across his chest, not too far away.

After a long time, Luo Qianyu finally put down the tools in his hands and announced:

"Finished! It took much less time than expected. Dali, plug it in and try it out."

"Okay." Jiang Shili plugged in excitedly, and kept flattering her, "Sister-in-law, you are awesome!"

"Haha, it's actually very simple. You can try it next time you encounter the same problem."

As the black and white TV was announced to have been repaired, the two of them started chatting with each other in a familiar manner.

Luo Qianyu asked:

"Da Li, I'm planning to open a second-hand store, mainly recycling second-hand home appliances, repairing them and then selling them. Are you interested in being the person in charge?"

"I can't tell you the salary right now. It depends on how much profit we make from selling this batch of used goods. But it's definitely not worse than being a senior worker in a factory."

Jiang Shili's eyes lit up. Ordinary factory workers earned more than 30 yuan a month, and senior workers earned a maximum of 50 yuan.

Although he used to do reselling, and sometimes earned a high salary from a stable job, it was unstable and he worried about being caught every day.

If it weren’t for Lu Jiuchuan the last time he was taken to the Public Security Bureau, he probably wouldn’t know where he’s being done in a labor reform now. After he got out, he didn’t dare go there again and was worried about his livelihood.

"I'll do it! Sister-in-law, as long as you can get the formalities done, I'll work with you. I'll try to help you sell this TV first."

Luo Qianyu didn't expect it to be so smooth. He even had a way to sell it, so he happily decided:

"Okay! I have other things to do. I'll come back tomorrow to see if anything else can be fixed."

"You should discuss the work with your family and make sure it is done in a formal and legal manner."

Jiang Shili was so excited that he walked around in circles in the living room and had a great time talking to her.

Lu Jiuchuan was even more upset. More than two hours ago, Luo Qianyu had clearly told him to apply to open a store, but now the person in charge had been found. What was he supposed to do?

Dark clouds gradually gathered on his side, but the two men were unaware of it.

After Luo Qianyu finished chatting, she greeted him with a beautiful smile:

"Let's go to Hongguang Road first. After we're done, Zhang Weimin can come over and talk. We don't need to waste any more time."

What can he say?

After saying "hmm" sullenly, he helped Luo Qianyu up, and left the house with Jiang Shili's 'reluctant' farewell, and continued to work as a coachman.

On the way, he couldn't help but ask:

"Why did you suddenly think of giving Dali the responsibility for the home appliances?"

Luo Qianyu didn't know about his twists and turns, but he didn't intend to hide it from him:

"You rushed to the county overnight last time to help him deal with things, and brought me here today. He must be someone you trust."

"Besides, as you said, he has a foundation for being interested in this industry, and I think he is the most suitable candidate."

"You and I both have other more important things to do. There's no need to hold on to things that can be handed over."

After hearing this, Lu Jiuchuan felt that she still trusted him, and he felt better.

It was rare that I agreed with her.

Luo Qianyu observed the flow of people along the way. Yang County was not very big, and Hongguang Road was indeed a bit off the beaten track, not close to the department store or the farmers' market.

There are several factories next to each other in the surrounding area, and the main flow of people is factory workers, and the family quarters are also in this area.

If you want to build a commercial street, you have to create a gimmick and make it famous.

The warehouse and factory building that Zhang Weimin mentioned are indeed backed by Hongguang Road. Looking at the whole road, there are walls on both sides. Compared with the alley, the road is only a little wider.

Luo Qianyu looked at the walls on both sides and asked:

"Which piece is the textile factory? They all look the same."

Lu Jiuchuan nodded:

"They were almost the same. They were built at the same time. The left side is a textile factory, and the right side is a paper mill."

Paper mill?

Luo Qianyu thought about her sanitary napkin business, looked at the wall on the right, and wished she could take it all for herself.

The oxcart reached the end of Hongguang Road, which was a crossroads. Lu Jiuchuan pointed to a factory area diagonally ahead and said:

"That's the Red Star Hardware Machinery Factory that Jiang Haitao is in charge of."

Luo Qianyu squinted his eyes and vaguely saw the gate opposite. It would probably take about ten minutes to visit by bicycle.

“The planning is pretty good.”

After making the comment, she secretly cursed herself for her slip of the tongue, thinking what did a little country girl know about planning.

However, Lu Jiuchuan acted as if he heard nothing. He drove the ox cart to the gate of the textile factory and tied it to a tree.

The middle-aged man guarding the door pulled his red armband and shouted:

"What are you doing? This is the factory gate, not your home. Go somewhere else."

Luo Qianyu jumped out of the car, walked over with a smile on his face, and said in a gentle voice:

"Uncle, we have an appointment with your factory manager. We are coming here today to take a look at the old warehouse and factory and discuss renting it out."

The man trotted over and waved his hand:

"Go away, go away. I sit here every day and I haven't heard of warehouses and factories being rented out."

"Besides, even if they want to rent it, they will rent it to other factories or units. Who are you trying to fool by driving a bullock cart to rent it?"

"We are now hunting down enemy agents everywhere. The factory has a rule that no one can enter the factory without someone to pick them up. Who knows what you are up to?"

Apart from the fact that this statement may seem a bit contemptuous, it is all within his job responsibilities.

Luo Qianyu didn't make things difficult for him. He looked at his watch, turned to Lu Jiuchuan and said:

"Let's wait on the bullock cart."

"Yeah." Lu Jiuchuan reached out to support her and walked towards the ox cart.

The man chased after him and shouted:

“No matter who you are waiting for, the bullock cart cannot be parked in front of the factory.”

Luo Qianyu glanced at the location of the gate:

"It's not even counting your door, is it? It's at least several dozen meters away."

"Yes, it counts near our factory. It counts as long as you can see it when you leave the factory gate."

This is simply unreasonable, Luo Qianyu was a little angry.

But before she could say anything, a fat man carrying a briefcase walked out of the factory.

"Old Kong, what are you doing at the door? It affects the morale of the factory."

The gatekeeper immediately shouted with a smile:

"Director, these two people came to see the warehouse and factory for rent. Did you make the appointment?"

The fat man glanced at Luo Qianyu and Lu Jiuchuan:

"no!"

"I just finished a leadership meeting inside. Warehouses and factories are not allowed to be rented to any individual. Please go back."

After saying that, he tucked the briefcase under his arm and walked towards the bicycle not far away.

The gatekeeper whom he called Lao Kong raised his chin:

"Did you hear that? Take your cows away as well."

Luo Qianyu and Lu Jiuchuan looked at each other. It seemed that Zhang Weimin didn't have much say in the factory.

However, since she was here, she naturally had to meet Zhang Weimin in person and have a talk with him.

It's normal that plans are blocked! Just cut a path through the mountains and build a bridge over the water.

She raised the corners of her lips:

"Uncle, is this the only factory director in your factory? I was invited by Zhang Weimin to come here, so I just want to ask you, is it okay for me to wait for him here?"
