What shocked Yin Yuejuan and Yin Yuezhen was not over yet.
At this time, Chen Xia took out a set of gold jewelry from his backpack.
When people visit newborn babies in Zhijiang, relatives will give them some gold and silver jewelry. But 1982 was not the future after all, and everyone was not well off, so no one would give such precious things.
Even for close relatives, such as grandparents, it would be considered very nice to give them a silver bracelet at most, and this was something only people in the city could do.
But Chen Xia was different. She had a gold longevity lock, two gold bracelets, two gold anklets, and a jade pendant inlaid with gold that was as transparent as the bottom of a beer bottle.
Yin Yuejuan took it and quietly weighed the gold jewelry, and found that they were all solid and very heavy.
Oh my god, what kind of relative is this? Does he have a mine?
Even if there were mines, shouldn't they have been knocked down in the past few years?
In fact, Chen Xia had already seen the expressions of these two "aunts". He had known them for more than 30 years in his previous life. How could he not know what kind of people they were?
Although they have no bad intentions, they are just petty people at heart. They are easily surprised by things they don't see and are easily jealous.
Chen Zhenwu quickly introduced: "Xiao Xia, this is your sister-in-law's eldest sister and second sister. Eldest sister and second sister, this is my cousin from Yuezhou."
Chen Xia quickly called out affectionately, "Big sister, second sister."
In his previous life, the two aunts treated him quite well. After all, he was the youngest child on his grandmother's side. In addition, his parents later became "cadres" and leaders in the hospital, so there was a bit of currying favor with them.
Yin Yuejuan and Yin Yuezhen were also quite polite, and they didn't show their envy. They just smiled and said:
"Uncle, you're really generous. Where did you buy all that milk powder and bird's nest?"
They couldn't help but be curious, because milk powder is a scarce product after all, and there are too many people who want to buy it. They might as well ask around and tell others about it when they get back.
"Oh, this milk powder is from Hong Kong. You can't buy it in China. By the way, big brother, if you run out of this milk powder, please let me know. I still have plenty at home. This little baby must keep up with nutrition. Then she will become a little beauty, hehe."
Chen Zhenwu was already extremely grateful in his heart, but he would definitely feel embarrassed to ask for more after he had finished eating.
Milk powder, so much milk powder to give away, it must be more expensive than his annual salary.
He is not a shameless person. If it were any other relative, he would definitely not accept it.
At this time, Yin Yue'e was also awakened by the noise. Seeing Chen Xia coming, she was also very happy: "Xiao Xia, why are you here?"
"Sister-in-law, you guys are not loyal enough. You only told me after your niece was born."
Yin Yue'e chuckled and said, "You should ask your eldest brother. He said you were too busy with work and didn't want to disturb you. It was me who urged him to call you this time."
Yin Yue'e was already pregnant with her third child, and women of this era were not as delicate as those in later generations, so she was not as frail as Lin Daiyu. Instead, she sat up confidently.
Chen Xia personally made a cup of malted milk water and brought it to his sister-in-law (his mother in his previous life) who was lying on the hospital bed.
"I've been pretty busy lately. My 666 Weitai is preparing to be exported to Hong Kong, and I've been busy with production. Also, our Fourth Hospital is moving to Yuezhou City to establish a new People's Hospital. I..."
Chen Xia sat naturally on the chair next to the bed and told Chen Zhenwu and Yin Yue'e about what he had encountered recently.
In his previous life, whenever he encountered difficulties in study or work, he would tell his parents, and then throw the problems to them while he went traveling with a group of friends.
So even though the old man and the old woman couldn't stand their disappointing son, they would always help him get things done well.
In this life, the two of them could no longer help him, but he was still willing to talk to them. For him, this was a rare moment of peace and tranquility, and it was also the time when he felt most relaxed.
There were many things he couldn't tell Gu Lin, nor could he communicate with his father-in-law and eldest sister, but he was a person who couldn't hold back. So every time he came to Jiangzhou, Chen Zhenwu and Yin Yue'e were the ones he could really confide in.
Before I knew it, the night was over.
In the early morning, Chen Xia drove back to Yuezhou from Jiangzhou while yawning.
Because this day is the day when the first batch of medicines exported from the branch to Hong Kong departs, the pharmaceutical company will hold an export ceremony.
It's really fucked up. Bao Yong worked really hard for his political achievements and even invited Li Bingquan as a stenographer.
With the help of those pharmaceutical machines, the branch factory successfully completed the production of 10,000 pills a day. According to Chen Qiaogu's report, in fact, more production could also be achieved.
But Chen Xia still stopped it. Although mechanization and automation are good, they will bring a problem, that is, the amount of labor will be greatly reduced, which is not a good thing for the villagers.
This is just like the textile industry in Yuezhou. When it first started, one worker could only manage one textile machine, which required a large number of workers and masters, and also led to the prosperity of every household.
Later, with the development of industrial technology, it gradually became the case that one worker was in charge of two textile machines, and eventually one worker could be in charge of 20 automatic textile machines. The efficiency increased exponentially. Isn't this a good thing?
But it also brought a side effect, which was a decrease in the demand for labor. During a certain period, the wave of layoffs was not only violently shaking the north, but Yuezhou also experienced a period of pain.
Chen Xia’s idea is that the factory can become bigger and bigger, and the output can become higher and higher, but some low value-added processes that do not require too much technology are better done manually.
This can be considered as leaving a way for farmers to survive. After all, only a few people were doing business in the early 1980s, and the wave of going out to work had not yet arrived.
Even if the company grows bigger in the future, he still hopes that more and more people will make a living by relying on his pharmaceutical factory.
It could be a worker, a logistics worker, or even opening a small restaurant next to a pharmaceutical factory.
If his pharmaceutical factory has tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of workers, then as long as he doesn't make mistakes and doesn't touch politics, no one will dare to touch him.
If we touch it, it means tens of thousands of people will lose their jobs, and the extended industries will even cause hundreds of thousands of people to lose their jobs. Tens of thousands of families will lose their source of income, which will be a major disaster for the local area.
