Chapter 141 Leaving
Wang Xiumei boiled the eggs, peeled two for her daughter to eat, and scooped up all the leftovers and put them in her bag.
After watching her daughter finish eating, Wang Xiumei looked at her husband and parents-in-law and found that they had all fallen asleep on the kang.
Wang Xiumei rummaged through the drawers for a long time and finally found more than 200 yuan and some banknotes at the bottom of the drawer. Without hesitation, Wang Xiumei put all the money in her pocket.
Then he went back to his room, packed two sets of clothes for himself and the child, found a sack to put them in, took Chuncao's hand, and stepped into the night.
"Mom, where are we going?" Chuncao asked fearfully.
There is not a trace of moonlight tonight, and it is eerily dark all around.
Wang Xiumei just held Chuncao's hand without saying anything. The mother and daughter walked faster and faster, and soon they met Yang Dan who was waiting for them at the entrance of the village.
Yang Dan saw two figures walking towards this side from a distance. When they got closer and saw Wang Xiumei and her daughter, she smiled.
"I knew you would come."
Wang Xiumei also smiled and said, "Let's go."
Two people, one with a child, walked slowly forward in the darkness, one step deep and one step shallow. The snow that had not yet completely melted soaked their shoes and socks.
But they didn't feel cold at all.
Before dawn, they finally reached the town, bought the earliest bus tickets, and took the bus to the city.
As if they were afraid of being caught up, after getting off the train, Wang Xiumei and Yang Dan went to buy train tickets and then boarded the train to Beijing.
Wang Xiumei's husband and parents-in-law woke up at noon the next day. The three of them got up one after another and found something wrong.
Then they ran into the captain who came to look for them.
"What's wrong with your family? It's okay that you didn't come to work yesterday, but why do you want to be absent today?" The team leader's tone was very bad.
Wang Xiumei's husband asked in some confusion: "What do you mean by absenteeism? Didn't we go to work yesterday?" He still didn't know that their family had already slept for two nights and one day.
After figuring out what happened, Wang Xiumei's husband immediately felt something was wrong and hurried back to the room to check, but sure enough, he did not see Wang Xiumei and Chuncao.
Just as he was stunned, he suddenly heard another scream.
"My money! Who the hell took all my money! More than 200 yuan and tickets, everything is gone!"
Wang Xiumei's mother-in-law shouted at the top of her lungs, and Wang Xiumei's husband came back to his senses with a start.
He ran out quickly and looked at his mother with a pale face: "Xiumei and the child are gone!"
The captain also realized something was wrong at this time: "What do you mean missing? Did she go back to her parents' home with her child?"
When Wang Xiumei’s mother-in-law heard this, she rushed out with a roar: “It’s bad enough that you sneaked back to your parents’ home with the child, but you even dared to steal my money.
If I catch her, I will tear her apart! This little bitch is capable of anything!"
Fearing that their mother would suffer, Wang Xiumei's husband and her father, who had remained silent, followed their mother and rushed out.
"Captain, you see, this is what happened in my family. We will go to work after my family affairs are dealt with." After saying this, the man ran away.
The captain shook his head and sighed, then left.
…
Wang Xiumei's husband and his family went to his father-in-law's house and made a scene, only to find out that Wang Xiumei had not returned.
"What's going on? Are there no men running away?"
Wang Xiumei's mother-in-law slapped her thigh and said, "All the money and tickets in the house are gone. She must have taken the money and ran off with someone else!"
When the news got back to the Victory Brigade, everyone in the brigade was excited.
It had been a long time since a woman ran away with someone else. When this happened, Wang Xiumei was nailed to the pillar of shame.
Whenever Wang Xiumei’s husband and his family show up in public, they are pointed at and criticized by everyone.
The captain didn't want to get involved in the matter at first, but since Wang Xiumei's husband and the others had come looking for him, he couldn't just ignore it, so he had to accompany them to the town to report to the police.
After the police arrived, the captain remembered one thing. It was not just Wang Xiumei who had not come to work for the past two or three days. Yang Dan was also not here.
The captain quickly took the police to look for Yang Dan again, but found that the place was also empty.
…
Wang Xiumei and Yang Dan arrived in Beijing on the afternoon of the third day. According to the address written in the letter, they found Li Ruolan's home at noon the next day.
Li Ruolan was watering flowers at home. When she heard someone knocking on the door, she went to open it. As soon as she opened it, she saw Wang Xiumei and Yang Dan, as well as two children, one big and one small.
As soon as these two people saw Li Ruolan, their eyes immediately became red.
Li Ruolan was a little surprised. She didn't know why Wang Xiumei was also here, but looking at the looks of the two of them, she knew that they had made up their minds to come to her. They must have suffered great injustice at home.
"Come in quickly. You haven't eaten yet? I'll cook for you." Li Ruolan didn't ask anything. She pulled the two people in and went to the kitchen to cook a pot of noodles.
The two of them did not stay there and let Li Ruolan work alone. They put the luggage in the yard and went to the kitchen to help light the fire.
"Tell me, why are you here?" After the two of them finished their meal, Li Ruolan began to ask what was going on.
After hearing the whole story, Li Ruolan reached out and patted Yang Dan and Wang Xiumei's hands.
“You are much braver than others. Some people are unwilling to save themselves or others even if they are suffering the most.
But you are willing, so I am willing to give you a hand. There are many paths in front of you now, choose one.
Liu Kunming and Xia Zhen's family took over the weaving factory, and Qin Wan opened a garment factory. If you are willing to work in the factory, we can arrange two positions for you and provide you with dormitories.
There are business opportunities everywhere now. Would you like to sell breakfast? Right in front of the school gate." Li Ruolan asked.
During this period, after school started, Li Ruolan would send her three children to school every day because she didn't have to go to work.
It didn't matter that she sent it there, Li Ruolan discovered that there were several bungalows opposite the school.
The primary and middle schools here are not far from each other, on both sides of the road. Although they are not gate to gate, they are very close.
There are many bungalows between the two schools. Li Ruolan saw these as business opportunities, so she decided to see if they were for sale and then buy two.
These small bungalows may look inconspicuous, but they will become storefronts in the future.
Yang Dan asked hesitantly, "Is breakfast just buns or something like that? Isn't that speculation? Won't we get caught here?"
Li Ruolan smiled and said, "Now the country has changed its policies, there is no need to be afraid when doing business."
Yang Dan and Wang Xiumei looked at each other, and Wang Xiumei said, "If you were a worker, you would only get this much money a month.
But if we do business, then doesn’t it mean that all the money we earn is ours? ”
Li Ruolan nodded, looking at Wang Xiumei with eyes full of approval: "You are right, both of you are taking care of children, and raising children and sending them to school will be an expense in the future.
If I just rely on my salary, I will definitely be a little tight, but if I start a business now, especially selling breakfast at the school gate, I will definitely make a profit. "
Wang Xiumei clenched her fist and nodded: "If that's the case, then we choose to do business.
Since we have brought our children here, we must definitely take root here. We must not only raise our children well, but also buy a house here to give them a better life.
And from what you said, I think you really want us to do business, right?"
Li Ruolan just smiled and didn't say much.
Seeing that Wang Xiumei made the decision so quickly, Yang Dan nodded in agreement.
Deng Minghao came back in the afternoon and was surprised to see Yang Dan and Wang Xiumei, but after learning what had happened, he didn't say anything.
The next day, Deng Minghao went to inquire about the bungalows.
Those bungalows were already in disrepair after a long period of time. When the owner heard that someone wanted to buy them, he didn't think much about it and sold them directly.
Because it was a dilapidated bungalow, it was sold at a relatively cheap price. I bought the two bungalows for more than 400 yuan.
This bungalow was old, small and dilapidated, so it definitely needed to be rebuilt. So Deng Minghao contacted the construction team and demolished the bungalow and rebuilt it.
During the time when the house was being built, Deng Minghao asked Wang Xiumei and Yang Dan to buy two packs of good cigarettes and two bottles of good wine, and then took them to find Mr. Xu.
Mr. Xu’s son is the person who is in charge of the household registration in this area.
When Wang Xiumei and Yang Dan came, they naturally brought their identification documents with them.
Deng Minghao and Li Ruolan kept saying how miserable Wang Xiumei and Yang Dan were, and even brought their two children with them, just to show how pitiful the mother and daughter were.
Looking at the pitiful Wang Xiumei and Yang Dan, who were crying and begging, the old couple Xu felt sorry for them and asked their son to help arrange their household registration.
Seeing that both Mr. and Mrs. Xu agreed, Yang Dan and Wang Xiumei were even more polite and knelt down to kowtow to the old couple.
The old couple helped him up.
After the household registration issue was resolved, Wang Xiumei's daughter Fangcao could be arranged to go to school.
Although Fangcao had never been to school, Wang Xiumei would teach her to read at home, so she became a transfer student and was arranged into the same class with Ningning and Anan.
Yang Dan’s little girl Yanhong was also sent to kindergarten.
While the house was being built and renovated, Wang Xiumei and Yang Dan went to the weaving factory to help out, because the factory was close to here and they could take good care of the children.
In order to take care of them both, Liu Kunming paid them both daily wages.
The couple and their two children temporarily lived in Li Ruolan's home. After they were settled, Li Ruolan was bored at home, so she went to take a look at the garment factory.
But as soon as I got there, I found that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the garment factory.
Li Ruolan finally found Qin Wan and Lu Yunxiao in the factory director's office.
"As soon as I came in, I noticed that the atmosphere in the factory was not right. What was going on? What happened?" Li Ruolan asked.
Qin Wan rubbed her brows and said, "The factory's purchasing department usually does a pretty good job, so I didn't ask too much about him going out to purchase.
Who would have thought that he actually took money from other weaving factories, bought a lot of old and second-hand goods from the weaving factories, made a fortune and ran away.
These cloths are totally unusable now. They will break into pieces if you rub them. Fortunately, I found that there was something wrong with this batch of cloths and they were not made into clothes.
Otherwise, if the clothes made of inferior fabrics are spread out, the reputation of our garment factory will be ruined.”
Li Ruolan immediately asked, "Have you called the police? Does this count as absconding with the money?"
Qin Wan rubbed her brows and said, "We have already called the police, and all the defective cloth has been destroyed. Liu Kunming has also sent emergency cloth, so the garment factory is doing fine.
I just feel that this is not right. I still trust the character of the purchasing agent, otherwise I would not give him such an important job.
But he suddenly did this now. I think he might be threatened. Maybe someone is targeting our garment factory."
Lu Yunxiao said: "The cloth sent by Liu Kunming will not last long. Minghao is now looking for other weaving factories to buy a batch for emergency use.
He probably won't be able to go back these two days, so I'm telling you first so you don't worry about him."
"I understand. Don't be too anxious. Since we think someone is targeting us in private, if he fails in his first attack, there will definitely be a second one.
All we have to do is wait and see, and then give him a hard blow." Li Ruolan said.
Even if you have the halo of a heroine, doing business will not be smooth sailing, and you will definitely encounter this or that kind of things.
The plot of the original book has long gone astray. The hero, Xu Tao, is still in college and it is impossible for him to become a business tycoon.
Qin Wan had no idea who her opponent was this time, and Li Ruolan had no idea at all.
But she was not afraid. Although the original plot had deviated in some way, Qin Wan was still the heroine after all. She still had the aura of the protagonist, and the protagonist would not be defeated so easily.
Li Ruolan went back and made some arrangements for the children, then came back to take charge.
Deng Minghao quickly brought a lot of cloth that met Qin Wan's requirements from other places. The garment factory only rested for one day before resuming production.
Several large orders seemed to be on the verge of being completed, but in the end, they were all completed within the scheduled time.
After Lu Yunxiao loaded all the clothes into the car, he immediately led the team to deliver them.
These orders from the garment factory are no longer limited to Beijing. Deng Minghao has also handled several orders from other places, and each of them is a very large order.
The large orders from other places are given priority for delivery.
As for those within the city, Deng Minghao acted as a transport team and helped deliver them.
After these waves of large orders, the garment factory's business began to slow down. It was at this time that the two clothing stores came to it.
"The clothes from your Changhong Garment Factory have serious quality problems. We want a refund!"
