Chapter 108 She Wants to Find a Concubine for Me
Exchanging scrap metal for cakes sounds like a mutually beneficial thing, but in reality it has "cheated" the factory managers of these factories.
One ton of scrap iron can only be exchanged for 50 cakes. A factory only produces two or three tons of scrap iron a day, which can be exchanged for more than 100 cakes.
These are factories with thousands of employees. More than 100 cakes are thrown in every day, but the complaints they get are much greater than the complaints.
In addition, the sales of the majestic cakes in department stores have been very hot recently, and a whirlwind has gradually formed, making those who cannot get them even more unbalanced.
Why do you have it and I don’t? Even if you are a leader, you can't take all the good things for yourself.
Especially after the leaders have distributed it all, there is still no share for them!
The employees of the iron barrel factory surrounded the factory director's office.
The factory manager has also been brainwashed by "Powerful Cake" recently. His wife even asked him to take all the handbags he exchanges every day home for her. He thought it was just a small matter and agreed readily.
In the end, this handbag became the last straw.
The voices of discontent drowned him out.
“Okay, okay, let’s order cakes. One for each person, okay?” said the director of the iron barrel factory.
"One is too stingy. The machinery factory ordered five!"
"No, I heard that the machinery factory added 5 more, 10 each!"
"There is also an enamel factory, and we have ordered five of them."
"These are nothing. You don't know that in a department store, they have 500 employees!"
"Oh my goodness! Is this true?"
The factory manager was shocked: "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
The person who spoke also laughed: "Indeed, they are not given by the company, but are determined by myself and the people in the cake factory."
That's about right.
The factory director didn't dare to let them speak: "Okay, okay, two per person, no more. We, a barrel factory, can't compete with the machinery factory directly under the central government..."
"What about the enamel factory?" someone interrupted.
Factory Manager: ".....Their factory manager is a bully, but I am not. I will give you 5 cakes for 5 yuan. You can order them all. But don't ask for other benefits during the Chinese New Year. There will be no rice, flour, fruit, or fish."
When everyone heard this, they decided to order less.
The last person ordered 2.
The iron barrel factory only has about 2,000 employees and the orders are not large.
The food factory added two more ovens in the past few days, and production increased.
Cheng Hui asked the secretary to wait here and baked it for them that day and took it away.
By the way, tell them not to unload the iron sheets here in the future, but to take them directly to Gaojiatun.
These were all small matters, and the other party readily agreed.
As soon as the people from the iron barrel factory left, Zhao Daxing's car drove into the yard. Zhou Qin and Zhao Daxing got out of the car together, and the last person to get out was Cheng Rui.
He had to ask his sister for her opinion. If he really broke up with the machinery factory, he would find a way to return to Beijing and would not stay in the machinery factory anymore!
"Xiaohui, the investigation results are out. Uncle came here to tell you." Zhao Daxing said as he entered the room.
He felt uncomfortable when Cheng Hui said "Director Zhao" before.
However, if Cheng Hui really got into trouble right under his nose, he would feel embarrassed to let Cheng Hui call him uncle again.
"Uncle, drink some water and talk slowly." Cheng Hui stood up and poured water for several people himself.
When calling "Director Zhao" before, he was actually forcing Zhao Daxing to express his stance and stop trying to smooth things over.
Seeing that she is fine, just pretend that nothing happened.
Now it seems that they are not reconciled, so the uncle is still an uncle.
"The factory will strengthen access control in the future. Except for employees and specially invited personnel, employees' family members will not be allowed to enter." Zhao Daxing said.
Cheng Hui nodded with confidence: "Then I will dare to enter this machinery factory in the future, and I am not afraid that she will suddenly come up from behind and hit me."
Zhou Qin immediately said awkwardly: "I have explained everything to her. She also knows that she misunderstood you. She promises that she will never trouble you again in the future!"
Cheng Hui thought about Zhou Qiaolan whom she had met yesterday. She looked average, but was unusually fat, perhaps about 150 or 160 kilograms. She also had a bad temper and was unreasonable.
It really doesn't match Zhou Qin's gentle and nerdy temperament at all.
She asked curiously, "How did Mr. Zhou marry her? Was it introduced by a matchmaker? Did you never meet each other before you got married?"
It’s not that she looks down on fat people, it’s that the woman’s unreasonable temperament is overflowing from her face. Anyone who is not blind can see it, right?
Zhou Qin sighed and said, "My hometown is in the northwest. I fled here when I was young. After I got here, my whole family died. I wandered the streets and was adopted by the Zhou family.
"Zhou Qin was the name my adoptive father gave me. Zhou Qiaolan is the only daughter of my adoptive parents. Before they died... they asked me to take good care of her."
Cheng Hui immediately showed great respect for him.
This is a poor man who gives himself to repay a favor.
There were no outsiders in the room except Cheng Hui and his sister, so Zhao Daxing couldn't help asking:
"I know all this, so you tolerated her not having a child after all these years of marriage. But how come I heard recently that you wanted to divorce her? If you didn't want to divorce her, she wouldn't believe everything she heard and come here to go crazy."
Zhou Qin's face suddenly turned red.
Zhao Daxing was stunned. Was it his problem? That's so offensive!
"Just pretend I didn't say anything!" he said immediately.
"No..." Zhou Qin stammered and looked at Cheng Hui and Cheng Rui.
Cheng Rui immediately said, "I'm going out to smoke a cigarette."
Cheng Hui, however, looked at Zhou Qin calmly and curiously.
She wasn't embarrassed at all, she wasn't a little girl anymore.
Zhou Qin came here today to "atone his sins". If Zhou Qiaolan had beaten Cheng Hui to death yesterday, he would have been ready to pay with his life.
In order to prevent Cheng Hui from having any grudge against him or the factory, he had to sacrifice his reputation today.
"She is a bit confused, and still has some feudal remnants in her head. Since she can't give birth herself, she wants to find a concubine for me... and she is her cousin!"
After finally saying it out, Zhou Qin suddenly felt that it was no big deal, and instead he felt relaxed all over.
It's no problem to marry the fierce daughter of his adoptive parents as his wife, but finding a concubine, or even a sister-in-law, is absolutely unacceptable!
That goes against his principles as a human being, so he would rather get a divorce.
Zhao Daxing opened his mouth wide, so shocked that he didn’t know what to say. Why didn’t he have such a good wife...呸呸呸呸! Why doesn’t he have such a bitch wife... Bah!
"She is quite shady... What is she thinking? She seems to be very jealous and envious. How could she find a concubine for you?" Zhao Daxing asked curiously.
Cheng Hui nodded and said, yes, this is not rational.
"She didn't really take me as her concubine." Zhou Qin said, "It's just that her cousin is very fertile and has given birth to five children. She wanted to give someone some money and lend her a belly."
"Why go through so much trouble? Why not just adopt one?" Zhao Daxing said.
Nowadays people don’t take adopting children seriously.
There are fewer cases of human trafficking now because people are not allowed to move around. People in cities all have jobs and have purposes and time for business trips.
Rural people are not allowed to go out easily. They need a legitimate reason, and even if they want to stay overnight with relatives in the next village, they need a letter of introduction.
Moreover, there are many families in rural areas who cannot afford to raise their children and voluntarily send them away, so there is no need to kidnap them.
Given Zhou Qin's family situation, if he said he wanted to adopt a child, his door would be stepped on the next day.
Zhou Qin stammered, "She said she wanted my seed. How smart."
Zhao Daxing...is really weird. He was speechless.
"Anyway, take care of your wife and don't cause trouble for Engineer Cheng again!"
"Of course!" Zhou Qin nodded: "I asked her to go back to her hometown!"
Zhao Daxing was immediately satisfied.
At this time, Zhou Qiaolan returned to her rural hometown and found her uncle and aunt who loved her. She said happily: "Uncle, my cousin doesn't need to give birth to a child for my man. I found a smarter child!"
