Yu Yin was busy as a bee, having chosen the location for the cooked food processing plant in the two-story building she had previously purchased.
Because her previous neighbors were splitting up and selling their house, Yu Yin bought it on the spot, and now they have two two-story houses. Yu Yin asked Huang Qiang to demolish the middle wall and clear it away, so the yard would be big enough.
The neighbor's building retained the load-bearing walls, and all the other partitions were removed to create a large open space. Several large stoves and pots were built in the space, creating a spacious food preparation area.
The house is 150-160 square meters, with the kitchen on the first floor and the storage room on the second floor, all connected. For hygiene, Yu Yin tiled both floors and installed large fans.
The courtyard wall was raised and reinforced, the gate was re-customized, a new storage room was built in the yard, and the sewer system was repaired. It cost Yu Yin a lot of money. She pulled strings and bought pipes, but she couldn't do without the sewer system.
Even the old house was connected to the sewer system, and the bathroom could finally be used normally.
While Yu Yin was busy with a flurry of activity, the Lu family, who had been quiet for a while, had something else to do.
"Yinyin, Dad called and asked us to get together at Shukang's place tomorrow night." Before going to sleep, Lu Shurui suddenly remembered the phone call he received from his father that morning.
"Going to Lu Shukang's place for a get-together, did he say what it was about?" Yu Yin was sitting in front of her dressing table doing her skincare routine. If she didn't take care of herself, she would really get old.
"I didn't ask. I was busy with some data and hung up in a hurry." Lu Shurui was participating in a research project and was quite busy.
"Okay, I'll have Lin Dong drive me back tomorrow. We'll drive over tonight, otherwise it'll be hard to find a car later." Yu Yin has been so busy lately, it's good for her to go and have some fun.
In the morning, Yu Yin told the children, "Tonight, Dad and I are going to Grandpa's place. After you come home from school and have dinner, don't go out. Stay home with Grandpa and Grandma Hu."
"Mom, what's the matter with Grandpa?" Kuai Kuai asked curiously.
"I don't know yet, we'll find out when we get there tonight." Yu Yin planned to go out for a nice meal with Lu Shurui that evening, and then go there.
"Mom, don't forget to tell us when you get back," Kuai Kuai quickly added.
"Alright, why are you so curious? Your brother and the others will finish eating soon and won't wait for you." Yu Yin didn't even know who this child resembled. Neither she nor Lu Shurui were particularly curious or liked to join in the fun.
I glanced at them quickly, and sure enough, they were almost finished eating. He stopped talking and hurriedly shoveled down a few mouthfuls of rice. He couldn't leave anyone behind; he didn't like walking alone.
An'an and Pingping exchanged a smile. Kuai Kuai must be worried now, even Manman secretly chuckled. His little brother…
After finishing her meal, Yu Yin went to the factory. Under Wu Shengnan's leadership, the laboratory was thriving, and the quality was absolutely guaranteed. Quality inspection was carried out according to the strictest standards available at the time, leaving no room for error.
Yu Yin, Zhong Liang, Brother Liang, Wang Qiming, and He Haifeng held a meeting together. Based on the current orders, they are still able to supply the goods.
"Sister Yu Yin, shouldn't we continue to develop new markets now and strike while the iron is hot?" He Haifeng is in charge of sales. Previous customers have placed additional orders, but these are only for two cities. They want to expand nationwide, and this is just the tip of the iceberg.
"Of course we need to develop the market. We still have two expensive production lines out there. But we haven't been able to get many things in place yet, especially the testing part, and we also need to sort out our existing customers."
"For the remaining market development, you should discuss it with Zhong Liang. Should we start with nearby locations, or try multiple locations together? And the train station—that's a huge market, with long-distance trains!"
Yu Yin gave a heads-up, but she wouldn't follow up on the details. She was only responsible for keeping track of the general direction, and the rest was left to Zhong Liang and the others.
"Brother Liang, place a job ad in the newspaper for a human resources manager and office staff. HR needs to be in charge of attendance and such; your job is too complicated." Logistical support is very important; Brother Liang can't be too distracted.
"Okay, I'll call the newspaper in a bit. It'll be the same one as before. I came here because I saw several news articles about it in the newspaper."
Liang Chao also hopes to hire a human resources manager as soon as possible, as he is powerless to do so.
Having finished discussing the matter, Yu Yin asked Lin Dong to take her to the cooked food processing plant. She also needed to check on the progress of the house renovation.
Huang Qiang worked quickly; the warehouse was almost finished, the stoves on the first floor were completely dry, and the bellows were installed.
Lin Dong drove Yu Yin home, then went back to the cooked food processing plant to check on the progress. He's still Yu Yin's secretary.
Lu Shurui returned home early that evening, and the two had agreed to go out for Western food.
"Yinyin, this car drives pretty well." This is Lu Shurui's first time driving this car. He's been too busy lately. He's been wanting to try it out ever since he learned that Yinyin bought a car, but he just hasn't had the time!
"That's good. I also want to learn to drive after I'm done with this busy period." Yu Yin doesn't know how to drive a manual transmission, so she has to learn from scratch.
"It'll be during summer vacation, I'll teach you." Lu Shurui thought to himself that their project was about to end, and he would get a bonus. He wondered what he could buy for Yinyin then.
“Okay, you teach me, and we can go on a date and learn to drive at the same time, killing two birds with one stone.” Once the cooked food processing plant is up and running, she can finally take a break.
The two of them rarely got to go out alone, so they leisurely finished their Western meal, checked the time, and then drove to Lu Shukang's house.
"Hey, whose relative is this? They even drove here!"
“A jeep, it’s a jeep, I recognize it.”
...
As soon as Yu Yin and her group drove into the vicinity of Lu Shukang's house, the elderly people who were cooling off downstairs started talking about their car as if they had discovered a new continent.
Lu Shurui parked the car, took the things he bought for his father and the others, and went upstairs.
Although everyone was curious, it was a car, and no one dared to touch it. They couldn't afford to pay for the damage if they broke it.
Inside the house, Brother Lu and his wife, and Sister Lu and her husband were all there, but Sister Lu was not present.
"Dad, Mom, I brought you some food." Lu Shurui handed the food to her father, and Yu Yin greeted Lu's sister-in-law and Lu's second sister.
"Yinyin, have you eaten yet?" Second Sister has been busy with Zhuangzhuang's studies lately and hasn't seen Yu Yin for a long time.
"We've already eaten. What about you?"
"We ate everything." Sister Lu Er and Sister-in-law Lu returned to Yu Yin together.
"Sister-in-law, Xiang Yi is about to take the college entrance exam, right? Which school is he planning to apply to?" Yu Yin knew that Xiang Yi was a good student, but she didn't know which school he had his eye on.
“He wants to take the exam in Beijing, he wants to go out and see the world. We haven’t decided yet, we’re worried it’s too far, and we’re not comfortable with him being alone.” Sister-in-law Lu was also worried. Xiang Yi didn’t want to study medicine, he wanted to go out and explore the world.
"We also need to consider the children's wishes and their college entrance examination scores. We'll have to study it carefully then." Yu Yin couldn't offer any advice. Even if An'an and the others decided which university to attend, she wouldn't interfere too much, only offer suggestions.
While they were chatting enthusiastically, Lu's mother and Lu Shukang were extremely anxious, but no one noticed.
