Chapter 174 The first person in their village to use a telephone



Xiaofang's voice was so loud that it startled Liu Ruonan, who quickly held the microphone away. Perhaps they didn't know that in the near future, even more advanced communication devices would appear, like the big brother cell phone, which later evolved into a music phone, and then the smartphone.

Not to mention talking on the phone, even the other party can see it on the phone.

If Liu Ruonan told them this, they would surely feel even more incredible!

"It's me, sister-in-law." Liu Ruonan responded, softening her voice, as if telling Xiaofang that she could also lower her voice so that she could hear her.

Xiaofang chuckled a bit embarrassedly and said, "Hey, I've been waiting for business to come to the store, but I didn't expect that the first one to call would be you."

"We installed the phone for convenience. We can now discuss business matters over the phone," Liu Ruonan said with a smile. This also saves many businesses from having to run errands in person.

A few days ago, Boss Jin had been consoling himself by trying to expand the audio-visual store so that he could earn more. However, Liu Ruonan was originally struggling because she had no place to stay.

Now, the factory has been built, and the general building next to it is also going to be built. When the time comes, she can build several warehouses next to the building, which will be used specifically as warehouses for audio-visual store equipment.

"Nannan, what's up?" Xiaofang seemed to have gradually suppressed her excitement. In fact, when the phone rang, she was a little excited, because she was afraid that it was a business in the store, and if she showed too much excitement, she would be laughed at for being unworldly.

So, Xiaofang had been enduring it, but when she heard Liu Ruonan's voice on the phone, she exploded for a moment.

After the phone call, I gradually lost my excitement. Now my mood is much more stable.

"Sister-in-law, tell my eldest brother to take some time to go back to the village and tell the villagers to come to the factory for training in a week." Liu Ruonan said.

The villagers are currently working on the road. Not everyone has signed up to work in the factory. Some, as Liu Ruonan puts it, are simply unambitious, content to cultivate the land in the village, and take care of their wives and children. Why leave their homes and careers to work in a factory? Working themselves to death, and not knowing what the consequences are?

What's more, everyone only sees Liu Ruonan's surface. Yes, she looks prosperous on the surface, as if she has made a fortune. But no one can guarantee what kind of benefits this factory will have in the future!

What if the factory went bankrupt? They would give up their land and end up with nothing, which would be a loss.

Of course, after a week, all the applicants came to the factory for training, and the remaining labor was used to repair the road. This way, they would earn more money, which naturally made them happy.

Xiaofang responded and was about to hang up when she heard Chen Jianmin's voice on the line: "Xiaofang, who's calling? Is it Nan Nan?"

"Yes! Aunt, it's gay." Xiaofang said excitedly.

"Let me talk to her!" Chen Jianmin was also eager to try this magical thing.

Xiaofang handed the phone to Chen Jianmin, who took it and said curiously to the other end of the phone, "Nannan, this is your aunt, can you hear me?"

"I heard it, auntie." Liu Ruonan responded with a smile. The people around her were all lovely people.

"Hey, I don't have anything to say actually. I just want to say something to you. The telephone is really amazing. You are on the other end and I am on this, and I can hear your voice." Chen Jianmin was deep in the countryside and had never seen these things.

Although she lived in the city now and had occasionally seen public telephones when passing by phone booths, she had never used one. This was her first time using one! She was naturally very happy because she was the first person in her village to have a phone!

"Yes! Aunt, if I am in the factory in the future and you want to find me, just call this number." Liu Ruonan said patiently.

"What's this phone number? I don't even know it. Haha, do you think my aunt is stupid?" Chen Jianmin said a little embarrassedly.

At that time, the phone did not have caller ID, so all he could do was write down the number. Liu Ruonan told Chen Jianmin the factory's phone number, and Chen Jianmin took a piece of paper and wrote it down carefully.

After chatting a bit more about family matters, they both hung up the phone. From now on, Liu Ruonan might have to spend more time at the factory, and she couldn't just sit there and do nothing like she had in the beginning.

Although Ning Haotian's cooking skills weren't great, the small vegetable garden he had cultivated was quite good. Liu Ruonan took a look and saw that he had grown quite a few vegetables.

The factory's front yard has been paved with concrete, leading directly to the warehouse. This is because vehicles need to pass through here, and it is not acceptable to keep this dirt road. This situation will still occur when it rains or snows.

Liu Ruonan looked at the small vegetable garden in the backyard, which looked quite fresh.

Liu Ruonan thought it would be a good idea to turn the backyard into a beautiful garden. She could also leave a small piece of open space for Ning Haotian so that he could be self-sufficient.

The backyard is not small. There are a few lawns, a few stone tables, a few swings, and a cobblestone path. When you are tired, you can come to the stone table in the backyard to rest, chat, and relax.

This is just a thought in my heart, and I am not too anxious. After all, the backyard is not of much use now.

When the cement road in the front yard was paved, two large open spaces were left out to be used as green belts.

Ning Haotian has already contacted the turf. When the factory is fully built, the turf can be transported and the green belt will be prepared.

Liu Ruonan was busy for a while, cleaning up some places roughly, and she was almost exhausted. She had originally planned to make dinner for Zhuang Sheng when she got home, but now she found that with such a little baby in her belly, she was really not as healthy as before.

Liu Ruonan returned home and fell asleep on the bed without even having time to take a shower.

When Zhuang Sheng came back, Liu Ruonan was curled up in bed, sleeping soundly.

Zhuang Sheng went to the bathroom and washed a hot towel. Liu Ruonan gently wiped her body. The weather was getting a little hot now. She must have worked all day. It would definitely not be comfortable to sleep like this.
