Lin Qingqing was so busy that every time Li Qiang passed by her cloth stall, he saw her selling goods, almost without stopping for a moment.
Hou Guiying also noticed it several times. At first, she thought Li Qiang was just passing by. Later, after seeing him more often, she felt that there was something wrong with the way Li Qiang looked at Lin Qingqing. No wonder Li Qiang didn't like her own daughter. It turned out that he liked Xiaolin.
She was furious and very upset.
Besides, Li Qiang was already 26 years old that year and still had no partner, which was definitely considered an older young person in 1980.
As the saying goes, an elder sister is like a mother. His parents died early, and his married sister was really worried about his marriage.
As soon as he got off work that day, his sister came to urge him, saying that she had arranged a blind date for him. The girl worked in the only bank in the county. She was very beautiful, and her family members were all cadres in the system. She was very well off.
His sister thought that Li Qiang would agree to meet this time, but Li Qiang turned his head away and didn't take her words seriously at all.
His sister was furious. She grabbed his ear and scolded him, "What kind of person are you looking for? Xiao Liang is so good! She's the only child in the family, has a good job, and her parents are officials in the county. How can they not promote you in the future? You won't find someone as good as her even if you search with a lantern. At least meet her!"
Li Qiang said impatiently, "Sister, don't worry about my business!"
"Don't worry about it. Just find me a sister-in-law so I don't have to worry about it!" His sister saw that hard tactics didn't work, so she tried soft tactics: "Just listen to me this time. Xiao Liang's parents are both in the county. If you say something unpleasant, her father can transfer you to a key department with just one word. It's much better than you running around all day, which is hard and has no future. You'll get sick when you get old. I'm thinking of you. Both of our parents are dead. If you can get married and start a family, it will also put my mind at ease."
His sister's words were full of deep affection and loyalty, so Li Qiang couldn't refute them directly and just agreed to consider it.
After the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, it was time to sell off goods, but Boss Zhang was out of stock again.
Lin Qingqing was so anxious that her lips were bubbling because she couldn't make money.
Open a factory, I must open a factory! This idea became clearer and clearer in her mind.
On the 27th day of the 12th lunar month, she had sold all her goods, not even a piece of cloth left.
She took stock and found that she had earned less than 10,000 yuan in these eight days. Combined with the more than 20,000 yuan she had earned before and the 60,000 yuan she had earned from selling pears, she had nearly 100,000 yuan in funds available.
In 1980, 100,000 yuan was enough to start a factory.
First build a simple factory building, recruit a group of workers to start a small-scale business, and then expand step by step.
Currently, the only cotton processing factory in Jinning County was established in 1973. It is a state-owned enterprise with surprisingly good performance. She remembered that until her rebirth, this company was still doing well. It not only had cotton textile industry, but also had many branches in printing and dyeing, banking, pawnshops, wine, real estate and so on.
The reason why she remembered this company was that it was a leading enterprise in Jibei Province, and its chairman, Zhang Qunguo, who was nearly 80 years old, was well-known throughout the country.
She didn't want to take over this company, but wanted to poach people from the factory. To open a factory, you must have professional guidance, otherwise you will take many detours.
When she mentioned professionals, she thought of Li Xiang.
Although Li Xiang is a logistics worker, he has worked in the factory for seven or eight years and must be familiar with the factory's situation. If he is willing to help...
