Xu Xiangyang transported all the ordered items back into his spatial storage. Looking at the full load of goods, he nodded in satisfaction.
It's more reassuring to have more things in your hands!
However, his money is really increasing. Although he hasn't counted it recently, he can see that he has several large boxes filled with it.
A rough calculation suggests there should be over a hundred!
We're still far from our goal. After all, he's looking at the long term. Once he buys the land, he has to build a factory, and once the factory is built, he has to hire workers to produce the goods.
This is a large sum of money; it can't be solved with just a few hundred.
However, building a factory is much less troublesome than real estate. That kind of thing won't be up and running until the 1990s, almost twenty years, and he can't wait that long.
The next few days were uneventful. Xu Xiangyang worked in the factory, and there was nothing major happening in the black market.
However, he knew in his heart that Master An would definitely not keep taking his goods like this.
"Knock knock knock..." A knocking sound rang out.
Xu Xiangyang didn't even look up. "Please come in."
The door opened and a person walked in.
Xu Xiangyang looked over and couldn't help but smile. It was an old acquaintance!
"Director Xu!" Zhang Lianhe walked in, bowing and scraping, with a smile on his face.
"You're here." Xu Xiangyang nodded and gestured for him to sit opposite him.
The two have rarely seen each other since they stopped working on the project team.
These past few days have been very busy. Zhang Lianhe came here to work as an accountant, and he was quite busy at first too.
Everyone has gotten used to it in the last couple of days, and we're gradually able to control the work rhythm.
The main reason was that Zhang Lianhe felt the gap between the two was too great, and he was afraid that Xu Xiangyang would be unhappy if he rashly approached him.
In the project team, two people live close by, so it's normal for them to greet each other and exchange a few words.
But things are different now. He's the factory director, a powerful figure in the factory.
He's just a lowly accountant; what great future could he possibly have?
Seeing his timid and hesitant manner, Xu Xiangyang said, "Xiaohe, don't be so reserved. There's no one else here."
What he meant was that when there were no outsiders around, everyone could chat freely and treat each other as friends.
With other people present, we naturally have to be mindful of their presence.
Zhang Lianhe could understand what he meant. Having worked at the company for so long, how could he not know the hidden meaning in his words?
He smiled and nodded. "Director Xu... Brother Yang, it's been a long time since we last met. How have you been lately?"
He actually wanted to visit Xu Xiangyang during the Chinese New Year to give him a gift, but then he realized that he didn't know where Xu Xiangyang lived.
How can I visit someone if I don't know where they live?
Xu Xiangyang smiled and said, "It's alright. How about you? Are you getting used to things at the factory?"
Everyone here is new to the factory, so there will definitely be things you're not used to. Try to adapt as soon as possible so you don't end up in a mess.
The two exchanged a few casual words, and then Zhang Lianhe prepared to leave.
He came here today to build rapport and make sure the factory manager remembers him so that there will be opportunities to meet again in the future.
Feelings fade if you don't keep in touch.
Moreover, he never expected Xu Xiangyang to contact him on his own initiative, after all, Xu was the factory director, while he was nothing.
Xu Xiangyang watched him leave, shaking his head with a smile. That guy was really interesting…
He had no vested interests with Zhang Lianhe; they had only worked together in the project team before.
However, he learned that Cao Yajun often asked him about him at that time, but the man never said a word, which meant that he knew nothing about him.
Even so, it's still pretty good.
Xu Xiangyang checked the time; it was almost time to get off work. He had been studying Muay Thai for the past two days, mainly because the fighting aspect was relatively easier.
Aside from finding a coach to ask questions, I practice on my own online the rest of the time.
And you know what? After practicing for a few days, he could feel a noticeable change. His body already had a very fast reaction speed and was extremely sensitive to movement.
With such well-developed limbs, it's no wonder the original owner fell from the tree and died.
Only an active mind can match an agile body!
As he thought about it, he got on his bicycle, intending to go home for dinner first, and then ask his coach.
Last night during training, I felt like I wasn't putting in enough effort, but I don't know what the problem is.
Since being attacked by a martial arts expert, he has decided to strengthen himself properly.
I thought everyone was just an ordinary person, but who knew they had all secretly practiced kung fu!
Now he suddenly realized that people who transmigrate either have a cultivation technique or a mysterious master.
Why is he the stepchild, getting nothing at all? At least let him cultivate to become an immortal, even if he can't ascend!
But complaining now is useless. We should just focus on training and improve our Muay Thai skills so we can fight against others.
On his way home, Xu Xiangyang was riding his bicycle with his head bobbing when he caught sight of two people.
He applied the handbrake, then turned around and followed.
Once inside the alley, seeing that no one was around, he stored the bicycle in his spatial storage.
He then put on his hat and quietly followed them.
After walking for a few minutes, he saw two people stop in front of a courtyard gate. There were quite a few residents in the area, and some of them had their gates wide open.
Xu Xiangyang thought for a moment, then found a secluded spot to enter the space, and then used the little mouse to sneak over.
This thing looks okay at night, but it doesn't look real during the day.
At first glance, it seems fine, but upon closer inspection, something is amiss.
He guided the little mouse to the gate of the yard. The gate was already closed, but each yard had a drain outlet above the sewer for drainage.
Entering through this drain, Xu Xiangyang glanced around and then immediately controlled the little mouse, leading it to behind a large rock under the eaves.
Fortunately, it has stopped snowing these past two days, and the snow has started to melt, otherwise the whole way would have been marked.
As soon as he stopped under the eaves, he heard laughter coming from inside the house.
One of the voices said, "Secretary Cao, you really know how to joke around today."
The voice sounded familiar, and Xu Xiangyang immediately thought of Fatty Lu.
I had met him before and even had a few meals with him, so I had a deep impression of him.
Xu Xiangyang wasn't surprised that Fatty Lu was there. They had always been on good terms with Cao Yajun, so they often ate, drank, and had fun together.
I just don't know if they know about Cao Yajun's situation.
Of course, whether others know or not is none of his business.
What he just saw was Cao Yajun coming over with a man, which is why he followed.
He hadn't originally intended to come, but he remembered Liao Shichang's reminder and was also curious about why there had been no movement for so long.
Who knows what big move he's planning?
As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle!" So, he followed without hesitation, hoping to find out some useful information.
Xu Xiangyang listened quietly to the sounds coming from inside the house, not in a hurry, since he had nothing else to do anyway.
