After finishing her conversation with Qin Futong, Fu Wan immediately felt refreshed.
Construction on the residential buildings has already begun, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, they should be able to catch up with the first wave of residential building boom in Beijing next year.
When the time comes, besides keeping two sets for ourselves and the ones for Qin Fu's side, we'll sell the rest and we're sure to make a big profit.
Thinking of this, Fu Wan felt a little regretful. She wished there were other places in the capital to buy.
She'll still have to ask Qin Fu to keep an eye on things for her later.
Thinking this, she prepared to go to the new house. However, just as she stepped out of the door, the phone on the table rang again.
Hello, who is this?
"Is that Comrade Xiao Fu?"
The steady voice of a middle-aged man came from the other end of the phone, and Fu Wan recognized it immediately.
"Leader Zhao?"
Zhao Gang chuckled twice. "Yes, it's me. What a coincidence! I thought I'd have to wait a few minutes for you to answer the phone."
Fu Wan laughed, "It's quite a coincidence. I just finished a phone call with a friend in Beijing. Is there something you need from Director Zhao?"
Given Zhao Gang's position and the fact that it's during working hours, he couldn't very well call to reminisce.
Sure enough, the next second, Zhao Gang sighed.
"Comrade Xiao Fu, we've dealt with each other a few times already, so I won't stand on ceremony with you."
"Are you still short-staffed for your aquaculture project?"
Fu Wan was somewhat surprised, "Oh no, Uncle Jiang just arrived recently, and he's preparing to start training these past few days."
"What's wrong? Does Leader Zhao have anyone suitable to recommend?"
Zhao Gang smiled wryly and said, "To be honest, I thought about it for a long time last night about whether or not to bring this up with you, but I really had no other choice."
The person I recommended to you is someone you can trust in terms of both his work ethic and character; he's definitely a good comrade.
That kid was also a soldier I trained; he was previously selected for the special forces. But during a mission, he was injured in one eye by an explosion.
You know how dangerous special forces missions are, so after that kid was injured, he chose to leave the military. He refused the subsidies and jobs offered by the army.
At this point, Zhao Gang felt a lump in his throat, and he coughed twice before saying, "That child has no one else in his family. His parents were our former colleagues who died on the battlefield."
Yesterday I received a letter from a comrade-in-arms asking if I knew of any suitable job opportunities. The young man is stubborn; he'd rather stay home and farm than accept help from the organization.
Having said that, Fu Wan had a general idea of what kind of person this was.
Loyal to the country, and not wanting to be a burden to the organization.
But if you have such skills, wouldn't it be a waste to just stay at home and farm?
Seeing that Fu Wan remained silent, Zhao Gang continued, "I'm not afraid to tell you this, but I recommended this child to you because I felt comfortable with your treatment and trusted you as a comrade."
"You can decide on the salary and benefits. I'll transfer some money to you later, as a personal payment from me. But don't mention this to her."
Zhao Gang's intentions were indeed well-intentioned.
Fu Wan immediately agreed, "No problem, I admire such a comrade as well. When do you think he will arrive? I'll arrange his accommodation."
Zhao Gang was overjoyed upon hearing this. "Thank you so much, Comrade Xiao Fu! She lives in a village in the next city. I'll buy her a train ticket right away and send her there!"
"Okay, don't worry about it."
After finishing her call with Zhao Gang, Fu Wan immediately started making plans in her mind.
A comrade from the special forces must be quite skilled. She wondered if he would be willing to go to sea with her; if he was, that would be even better. Fu Wan wanted to wait until the weather warmed up and then go to the high seas to take a look.
If he's unwilling, then let him take charge of the farm!
After hanging up the phone, Fu Wan left the money for the call and went to the new house.
When Boss Fu saw her coming from afar, he quickly waved to her.
"Ah Wan, come take a look. The house is basically finished. If there are no problems, I'll have the electrician come and install the wiring."
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan took a stroll around the new house. As was her usual practice, Fu Laoda had also reserved a courtyard for her.
Because it has several floors, this house is much taller than most of the brick houses in the village, and from upstairs, you can have a panoramic view of the sea.
Uncle Wang, who built the house before, truly deserves to be called the best house builder in this area. The house perfectly reflects Fu Wan's vision and is comparable to a villa from the millennium.
"No problem, Dad. Have someone install the wiring. And have someone clean up the broken bricks and other debris in the house later. Once the floor is finished, I'll go to the county to buy appliances."
Upon hearing this, Boss Fu nodded, but in his heart he was thinking, who else would he need to hire to do this brickwork? He could work hard himself and finish it in a month.
However, judging from his expression, how could Fu Wan not guess what he was thinking!
"Dad, there's no need to skimp on this money. Look at your back, how can you take such a hard job?"
"Besides, with the time we'd spend cleaning up these bricks, we could make a good profit on a trip out to sea."
That makes perfect sense. After thinking about it, Boss Fu finally nodded in agreement.
"Okay, then we'll do it your way."
After the house was finished, there were a lot of broken bricks, which the villagers could take to build fences in their vegetable gardens.
After discussing the matter, Fu Wan took the opportunity of sending Feng Ji back to the county to visit the cannery.
Everything at the cannery was proceeding smoothly. Fu Wan glanced at the recent income; the financial statements all showed a profit, and the cashier's account was accumulating more and more money.
"Uncle Wang, this month's wages will be an extra twenty yuan for each of you."
When it comes to benefits, nothing is more pleasing than simply throwing money at you.
Upon hearing this, Wang Jianmin nodded repeatedly in agreement.
"Okay, everyone's probably going crazy with joy now."
Fu Wan smiled and said, "Tell everyone to work hard, and I'll give you all a big bonus for the New Year!"
There were no problems at the cannery, and Fu Wan returned to the village after lunch.
After breakfast, Fu Jian, Fu Ming, Fu Liang, Fu Qing, and the others listened to Jiang Wanghai talk about the precautions for aquaculture in the ancestral hall.
Fu Wan listened for a while. Besides Fu Jian and the others, there were also quite a few interested uncles and aunts.
However, most people rarely stayed until Jiang Wanghai finished speaking. Only Fu Jian and Fu Ming and a few others listened and took notes at the same time.
The key to oyster and scallop farming is to do a good job in the early stages. The oysters also need to be tied with small ropes and suspended in the water.
Jiang Wanghai introduced all the tools needed to Fu Ming and the others. As for the fish cages, they would be used when raising fish, and Fu Wan would have to have them custom-made.
The day passed in this way. The next morning, Fu Wan took her child to school as usual. When she returned, she unexpectedly ran into Wang Xiuer and Fu Qing at the village entrance, along with a tall young man standing straight next to them.
"Auntie, where have you been?"
Hearing the noise, Wang Xiuer turned around and saw that it was Fu Wan. She immediately smiled and gestured to the people next to her.
"I'm going out to burn incense, Comrade Fang. This is Fu Wan from our village!"
