So, everyone smiled broadly, collected their bonuses and televisions, and went off to work happily.
On the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, the last batch of goods was loaded onto the truck and sent off. The brothers Liu Yujiang and Liu Yuhe, along with the people from the Dajianchang, went back to Northeast China with the truck.
As for Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng, they hired a large truck, loaded it with lots of things, and delivered New Year's goods to each household.
Of course, while others might give chicken, duck, fish, meat, cigarettes, alcohol, candy, and tea as New Year's gifts, Sheng Xiping gave color TVs, refrigerators, washing machines, and all sorts of home appliances.
Their smooth development and the large amount of money they made this year are largely due to the hard work of these key figures behind the scenes.
The recipient might not like these as gifts, but whoever receives these in-demand appliances will be happy to accept them.
After Sheng Xiping and his team delivered the New Year's goods one by one, making sure no one was left out, they boarded the train to head back.
Upon arriving in the capital, Wu Yucheng took the delivery slip to the train station to retrieve the goods they had previously shipped back.
The company's ordinary employees were issued black and white TVs, but the three shareholders were different; they owned a full set of home appliances, including refrigerators, color TVs, washing machines, and tape recorders.
Wu Yucheng worked with Sheng Xiping for more than half a year, earning hundreds of thousands of yuan and even buying a full set of home appliances. He was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
Especially these home appliances. For Wu Yucheng, no amount of money he earns can compare to the sense of accomplishment he feels bringing these home appliances home for the New Year.
After all, the amount of several hundred thousand was too large, and he dared not reveal it at all. Sheng Xiping even told him not to tell the truth to his family, so as not to cause trouble.
But once he made money and became successful, he wasn't allowed to show off. This wasn't Wu Yucheng's personality, and he felt incredibly stifled.
With these appliances, things will be different; he can enjoy the envious glances from others.
"Wow, second brother, did you bring all of this back from the south? Such a big color TV? My goodness, how many inches is it?"
What's this? A refrigerator? Wow, this is a rare sight.
Second brother, you've really struck it rich this time! You're amazing! These things are so hard to buy even in the capital's stores, you need ration coupons for them.
Sure enough, as soon as Wu Yucheng and his group arrived home, they carried the refrigerator, TV, and other items inside.
The Wu family brothers and sisters swarmed around, staring at the boxes on the ground, marveling and praising them.
"What do you think? Let me tell you, these are all imported goods. Do you think ordinary people can get their hands on them?"
"Go ask around the whole city, how many companies carry Panasonic TVs and Toshiba refrigerators?"
Wu Yucheng thoroughly enjoyed the scene, walking around the hall with his head held high and hands behind his back, looking extremely smug and arrogant.
"You brat, what are you so smug about? You thought you could have brought all this back without Xiping leading the way?"
Just as everyone was marveling at Wu Yucheng's triumph, Old Wu came over from the backyard, leaning on his cane, and said in a loud and confident voice.
"Hey, Grandpa, what brings you here? Long time no see, Grandpa looks great!"
When Sheng Xiping saw Old Master Wu's condition, he was completely stunned.
The old man had a ruddy complexion, bright eyes, and a straight back. He was nowhere near the old man who used to be sitting in a wheelchair, unable to move around and looking sickly.
"It's all thanks to you. If you hadn't helped me find the medicine, how could this old man still be able to move around freely?"
"Ever since I started taking that medicine, I've had more energy every day. Look at me now, I'm in great shape, I have a good appetite, I'm feeling great!" Old Wu patted his chest and laughed.
"That's good, that's good. As long as you're doing well, it's a blessing for us younger generations."
Sheng Xiping never expected that sheep blood would have such effects. No wonder everyone says it's a good thing; it's true.
It's a pity that this thing is no longer available, otherwise he would definitely go into the mountains to hunt one and keep some sheep blood for emergencies.
Sheng Xiping walked over and helped Old Wu to sit down in the hall.
"It's almost Chinese New Year, and the company is on holiday. I'm going home for the New Year, and I'm passing through the capital, so I thought I'd stop by to visit Grandpa. Seeing how well you've recovered, I'm relieved."
"Good child, you're so busy, yet you still think of Grandpa. Grandpa is so happy."
"Come, sit down and talk to Grandpa." Old Wu beckoned Sheng Xiping to sit next to him.
"Yucheng, stop showing off. Quickly call your dad and uncle and tell them that Xiping has arrived. Tell them to come back early so our family can have a reunion dinner."
Yuhua, call Xikang and ask him to come over too. It's a rare opportunity, let's have some fun together.
Older people enjoy being in a lively atmosphere.
Both sons are usually busy, and the younger children in the family are also busy with their own work and studies. Although they all live together, there are not many occasions for the whole family to get together.
It just so happened that winter vacation had started, and all the students were at home. When the old man spoke, Wu Yucheng and the others quickly went to call the people outside.
By evening, everyone who was still in the capital had returned home.
Sheng Xikang also brought some fruit and snacks to the Wu family's house.
Sheng Xikang has been working for half a year. He is a top student from Peking University and is highly regarded by his superiors.
Under the deliberate cultivation of his superiors, he has grown very quickly. Today, Sheng Xikang has shed his naivety and immaturity from his school days and has become calm and capable.
The two brothers were very happy to see each other, but with so many people around, they didn't have much of a chance to chat alone.
However, Sheng Xiping could tell that the Wu family treated Sheng Xikang very well and got along very well. It was obvious that Sheng Xikang must have visited the Wu family quite often.
Sheng Xiping was very happy about this; it seemed that the marriage between his younger brother and Wu Yuhua was settled.
