Chapter 32 Earning Money for the First Time
"It's not that I can't get the tickets, it's not that I don't want to give them. My family is not the kind of family that would be harsh on their daughter-in-law, there's nothing I can do about it."
"Big sister, you can't wear these two watches. You'd be reluctant to give them away, but it's a waste to keep them.
It would be better to give it to me, and everyone will be happy."
The aunt lowered her voice and did not dare to say buy, she could only vaguely say exchange.
Zhang Lin understands that these days anyone who dares to shout about buying and selling will have to play it safe.
Seeing Zhang Lin's interested expression, the aunt became even more excited.
One of them encouraged Zhang Lin vigorously, saying that these days, it is more reassuring to hold the money in your hands.
She didn't care whether Zhang Lin's other piece was for men or women. If it was for men, she would just take the piece in the elder sister's hand.
It looks brand new at first glance, without even a scratch.
If she takes it back, her future daughter-in-law won't be able to tell at all, and she can even bargain for the price.
How could Zhang Lin let her bargain? So she quietly picked out a ladies' watch from her bag, which was actually a raffle bag, took it out, waved it in front of the aunt, and then put it back in her pocket.
In the sunlight, the light reflected from the watch dazzled the aunt's eyes.
She was so jealous in her heart.
This guy really wants to show off, right?
Who would wear a watch and carry a watch when going out?
However, that watch is really nice, even better than the watches on the counter.
"Big sister, how much does this watch cost?"
The aunt's voice became even lower.
"This is high-end stuff from a big city. It's expensive!"
Zhang Lin's cocky look made the aunt want to hit him.
"One hundred and fifty!"
The aunt couldn't hold her temper any longer.
"Why don't you go and grab the 150?"
Zhang Lin acted like an angry and frustrated person.
"My son spent 160 yuan on the watch ticket and bought it, and you want it for 150 yuan!"
"I've never worn this before, it's brand new, you're expecting nothing!"
Instead of getting angry, the aunt felt relieved when she was scolded.
Looks like a really good thing.
After some bargaining, the two men finally settled on 180 yuan.
Auntie was very satisfied. This price is much cheaper than the black market!
After all, this is obviously a high-end product.
She came to the city this time just to try her luck in the black market.
I've looked here before, and good watches on the black market cost over 200 yuan without a receipt.
An ordinary watch would cost around one or two hundred yuan.
This is not a very serious premium.
After all, no ticket is cheap.
Zhang Lin was also satisfied, as this was the first time she earned money on her own after her rebirth.
Although there was a large box of treasures in the space, they were not hers.
Maybe some of it will come to her in the future, but it doesn't belong to her now!
She doesn't feel anything if it's not hers, even if it belongs to her family.
At most, I'll just be a little surprised.
If she wants to live a good life in the future and have money to start a business after the reform and opening up, she has to rely on herself, so she has to start saving money now.
She still has to take care of her mother. She can't use the Zhang family's money to support her mother. After all, they have no relationship in this life.
She still has to make money!
She put her own earned money and pocket money into two separate parts, and kept the money her father gave her for him, and put another part in it.
Every time she silently took notes on paper.
After returning the watch, the disguise charm in front of me counted down to a few minutes.
Zhang Lin rushed into the nearest alley, found a deserted corner, and came out, looking like a child again.
After walking along the alley for ten minutes, I arrived home.
Nowadays, when three or four-year-old children walk in the alley, people think they are just kids from the neighborhood running out to play, and no one is surprised.
After returning home, Zhang Lin rested for a while and his family members came back.
The lunch we had was brought back from the company cafeteria by several people.
"Hey, are we bored today?"
"Dad has done a great job today!"
Zhang Guosheng put down his lunch box, then hugged Zhang Lin and spun around, the joy on his face beyond words.
There was a problem with the machine tool on the production line in their factory today.
He had basic mechanical proficiency and spotted the problem immediately.
When the workshop manager and team leader were at their wits' end, maintenance technicians were in short supply and could not be hired, causing production delays,
He volunteered to repair it himself.
Neither the director nor the team leader believed it.
As a result, he pointed at the broken machine and explained it in a very clear and logical way. The director, who was anxious to resume production, discussed it with the other director and then asked the deputy director for instructions.
In front of a group of leaders, he calmly repaired the machine tool.
And it took less than an hour!
This was because it was his first time repairing a machine, and he was overly cautious when applying the knowledge in his mind to reality.
The leaders praised him on the spot.
He took the opportunity to say that he has been teaching himself various mechanical knowledge.
The leader was impressed by the fact that he was self-taught and had a deep understanding of machinery.
After hearing what he said, several people showed excitement.
"Fuck it!"
Zhang Yaowen smiled.
Zhang Guosheng's eyes were full of hope. He must work hard in the field of machinery and make his own contribution!
【very nice!】
Tears welled up in Zhang Lin's eyes.
Her father was seriously ill in his previous life. Despite the pain, he was afraid that his two ignorant sisters would worry, so he just took on everything without saying a word.
That decayed, pale face, and the lively and motivated face at this moment, kept impacting her mind——
[Dad, you will definitely have a good life in this life. Don’t worry about doing what you want to do and fulfill your dreams!]
[I will always be behind you, just like you were in your previous life.]
Zhang Yaowen looked at the two laughing people with satisfaction, while Chen Yuwei secretly wiped away her tears.
Zhang Guosheng smiled happily, and no one noticed the tears that were being held back in the corners of his eyes.
How could he have such a precious daughter who came back to save him?
He will definitely not let Guaiguai down!
Only Zhang Yuhua, who could not hear her own voice, was still immersed in her own sad world and paid no attention to what was happening here.
It was Zhang Lin’s first time to eat in a cafeteria of this era.
She discovered that the food in the cafeteria at the machinery factory where her father worked was the best.
Her eldest aunt's clothing factory is also good.
Her milk post office was not big and did not have a cafeteria, so people were subsidized and could eat at home.
As for the cafeteria at her grandfather's school, it was the worst.
There is less oil and the food is not as good as those in the machine factory.
Considering the situation of the school in recent years, it is not surprising.
After lunch, Zhang Yuhua went back to her room to rest in silence.
The happy mood of Zhang Yaowen and the other two also turned heavy.
Zhang Yuhua's low mood made them feel that it was a sin for them to laugh happily.
But is it really worth it for an ungrateful bastard?
"I have already taken an hour off this afternoon and will definitely take Yuhua with me to get a divorce!"
Zhang Yaowen looked very unhappy.
[I don’t know if the divorce will be successful. After all, they didn’t get divorced until four years later in their previous life.]
Several people looked unhappy.
Zhang Guosheng said that he took advantage of the fact that his leader appreciated him, told his leader about his brother-in-law's mess and asked for two hours of leave.
He wanted to go to the power plant in person, make a big fuss, and get Xiao Yulin and his elder sister to divorce.
