Chapter 13 New Home



Looking at these things, Lu Jiaxin felt a bit complicated. The original body only resented Ding Jing and Zhao Siyi, and had a deep admiration for Lu Hongjun. It was undeniable that as long as there was no conflict with Ding Jing, Lu Hongjun was indeed very good to the original body, and he was never stingy with money.

Lu Jiajie brought the quilt to her room and said with a smile, "Xinxin, make a list of what else you need. If you are embarrassed to ask Uncle San, I will go with you to ask."

"Xinxin, you are Uncle San's biological daughter, and you will have to take care of him in his old age. It is only natural for you to ask him for money and things. If you don't want them, those two people will benefit in the end."

In fact, he asked Lu Hongjun for these things.

Lu Hongjun originally wanted to leave Lu Jiaxin alone for a while and didn't want to buy anything for her. After all, no one could blame him for not buying anything for such a large sum of money. But he couldn't help but think that Zhao Siyi was trying to please him because he had money and power, and that she would behave differently when he retired and had no money to take. When he got old, he could only rely on Lu Jiaxin.

What Zhao Siyi did did indeed make Lu Hongjun feel fearful, and in the end he still took Lu Jiajie to the department store.

Lu Jiaxin glanced outside and saw Xue Mao and the other two people in the yard. She asked in a mosquito-like voice, "Fifth Brother, is it bad to buy so many defective items from the department store?"

It would be fine to buy a few cheap things, but now that so many were brought in at once, Lu Jiaxin was worried that there would be trouble. She hated trouble the most, so she would rather buy them slowly by herself.

Lu Jiajie was stunned at first, then he smiled and said, "We are buying, not taking. We have spent money, so we are not afraid even if someone makes trouble for us."

Lu Jiaxin frowned and asked, "Fifth brother, does my dad often buy defective products from the department store? It would be dangerous if someone reported him and the higher-ups sent people to investigate."

Even if they really fall out, they are still father and daughter, and their relationship will not change. If she is caught, she will definitely be implicated. At that time, doing business may add a lot of trouble.

Lu Jiajie thought that she was grown up now and should know some things: "Xinxin, the defective products in this department store are allocated according to the job level. Uncle San has been in the department store for so many years and rarely buys things from it. This is also a special case, and no one will report it."

"That's good."

After moving the things, it was already past five o'clock. Lu Jiaxin invited Lu Jiajie and his two friends to a small restaurant for dinner. They ordered five dishes and a soup, namely, chestnut jinta meat, braised prawns, braised pork, stir-fried cabbage with pork liver, pickled cucumber shreds, and crucian carp tofu soup, and also a bottle of wine.

Xue Mao was so distressed when he saw this. How much money did this cost?

Lu Jiajie felt that she had changed too much. In the past, when they went out to eat, this girl would order the dishes she liked. But now she basically ordered meat dishes and also ordered a bottle of wine, obviously according to their preferences. After more than a month away, she has learned the ways of the world.

The owner of the restaurant is a good cook and a very honest person. The portions of the dishes are generous. Lu Jiajie and his two friends had a great time eating.

Standing at the intersection, Lu Jiajie said goodbye to his two friends: "It's too late today, you have to ride your bikes back. I dare not let you drink too much. I will treat you on Sunday, and then we can drink to our heart's content."

Jia Xin also thanked the two men: "Brother Aqiang, Brother Asheng, thank you so much for today."

The two came for Lu Jiajie's sake, but Lu Jiaxin was very polite to them and treated them to a meal with meat, prawns and wine. This girl knows how to handle things.

The one called Aqiang said with a smile: "Sister, if you have any problems in the future, just ask me and I promise to help you."

Lu Jiajie waved his hands in disdain and said, "This is my sister, stop trying to get close to her. It's late, go home quickly, or your wife will scold you if you go home late."

The one named A Sheng laughed and scolded her for ungratefulness.

After sending the two away, Lu Jiaxin asked, "Fifth Brother, aren't you going back?"

Of course Lu Jiaxin wanted it. She was unfamiliar with the place, and the security was not good. She was a little scared to live in such a big house.

On the way back, Jiaxin had to pass by a public toilet. The pungent smell almost made her vomit. Even if she could use a bowl at home, coming here was still a torture.

Lu Jiaxin asked, "Fifth brother, my house doesn't have a toilet, and I want to build one. Do you know anyone who can help me? I want to get it done as soon as possible."

Lu Jiajie's mother-in-law's house doesn't have a private toilet either, so they always go to the public toilet. But there are many houses here, so it's not a problem to build a toilet in the yard: "I'll ask my friends first, and you can also report to the neighborhood committee."

Lu Jiaxin was extremely surprised: "What? I have to report to the neighborhood committee to build a toilet at home?"

Seeing her expression, Lu Jiajie became amused and said, "You are about to start construction. If you don't report it, who will know what you are doing? Also, if you build a toilet, it must be connected to the sewer pipe. If you don't report it, do you know where the sewer pipe is?"

Lu Jiaxin felt that she had taken it for granted. This was not the future, and many facilities were not complete.

After returning home, Xue Mao and others entered the yard and locked the door.

Lu Jiajie walked in and looked at the spacious yard, his eyes revealing envy: "It's great to have a house. Alas, I don't know when I can have my own house."

Lu Jiaxin knew that he only earned more than 80 yuan a month, and he would never be able to live in his own house in his lifetime with that salary.

After thinking for a while, Lu Jiaxin said, "Fifth brother, do you know what Xue Mao and I sell at the snack stand in the ancient capital?"

"What?"

"Cold noodles and egg pancakes may not look impressive, but they bring in huge profits."

Lu Jiajie remembered his friend saying that doing business is very profitable, and he immediately became interested: "How much do you make a day?"

Jiaxin smiled and said, "On the best day, we made 46 yuan, and on the worst day, we made 12 yuan. In just 24 days, we not only supported ourselves but also saved more than 300 yuan."

Lu Jiajie was shocked: "What, earn so much?"

You know, his monthly salary is only 86.80 yuan. As a result, the daily income of a snack stand is half of his monthly salary.

As policies are relaxed, more and more private factories will be established, and state-owned enterprises will have a harder time. When the country is overwhelmed, there will be a huge wave of layoffs.

Jiaxin wanted Lu Jiajie to leave the shoe factory and start his own business as soon as possible, so she deliberately provoked him: "I am weak, so I only sell in the morning. If I sell in the morning, noon and evening, I will earn more."

Lu Jiajie opened his mouth, but he swallowed the words back in the end.

Lu Jiaxin could see that he was moved, but he was hesitant to try it. But it didn't matter, she could get him to take action later with a little more fuel.
