However, remembering Fu Hongxing's repeated instructions not to seek out people to buy or sell privately, she couldn't help but feel a pang of doubt.
"Do you know something, which is why you're so worried?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Hongxing frowned as he looked at Ning Jing.
Is it so obvious in your performance?
As if sensing the question on his face, Ning Jing shrugged.
"You've repeatedly told me not to exchange things privately, and now you're advising people you know not to do it either. I can't think of any other reason why you'd be so earnest in your advice, except that you've heard rumors that the higher-ups will be cracking down on this key target."
Upon hearing Ning Jing's words, Fu Hongxing opened his mouth, then fell silent.
"But are you going to work in a coal mine? How much will you get paid? What kind of benefits are there?"
Even if he can't get the vegetables to make pickles, if he goes to work, the family will have an income, so why worry about going hungry?
Seeing her grinning from ear to ear, Fu Hongxing couldn't help but smile too.
"It's not clear yet; we'll have to go and report to find out what salary grade they'll receive."
However, I was a company commander in the army, and even if I were transferred to the coal mine, which would be roughly equivalent to a level 4 worker, it would be enough to support my family.
Ning Jing was completely confused: "Level 4 worker? How much can that earn?"
Fu Hongxing thought for a moment, then said, "It's about 55 yuan! Not including benefits or other perks."
"so much?"
Ning Jing exclaimed in surprise.
No wonder everyone wants to be a factory worker!
Then I thought of the previous recruitment quotas, and suddenly felt a pang of regret.
With such high income but selling so few, I'm losing money!
Looking at Ning Jing's pained expression, you could easily tell what she was thinking.
For some reason, Fu Hongxing felt all the pent-up frustration in his heart vanish.
After laughing heartily, he patted Ning Jing's head from behind.
"Don't overthink it, you did the right thing back then."
It's better that you didn't get involved in that quota. Besides, even if you did go, you'd only ever be an apprentice at best.
An apprentice only earns 18 yuan a month, and the work is dirty and tiring.
Hearing Fu Hongxing say that, Ning Jing felt a little calmer.
Then he asked, "What about Tan Qingshan going to the coal mine? Will he also be an apprentice there?"
"Qingshan? In the coal mine, an apprentice earns 22 yuan. Once the master trains you and you're officially hired, you can earn 34 yuan."
Are you close to Aoyama?
When Fu Hongxing saw Ning Jing asking about Tan Qingshan, after explaining the apprentices' wages, he asked another question.
"We're not that close! Aren't we brothers? So, I'm just asking out of curiosity."
Ning Jing stroked her chin, thinking that as long as Tan Qingshan didn't feel he had lost out and came looking for trouble, that was fine.
Fu Hongxing was speechless for a moment after being taken aback by her blunt words.
"I haven't seen him for six or seven years, and I don't know how he is doing?"
Before Fu Hongxing could finish his exclamation, Ning Jing immediately pouted and said, "Didn't you say you were going to work in a coal mine too? It's only a matter of time before we meet again, so what's there to be so surprised about?"
Well, upon hearing Ning Jing's words, Fu Hongxing, who had been lamenting the fleeting nature of time, had all that last thought drift away.
He rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache, and said to Ning Jing, "If there's nothing else, I'll take a shower now."
Upon hearing this, Ning Jing glanced at Fu Hongxing's waist and legs, and said somewhat reluctantly, "Alright!"
"Sister-in-law, what are you and my brother talking about?"
When Xiuhua saw Ning Jing enter the house, she asked curiously.
