Lin Ye carried the stone mill home, and Lin Chunhua and Lin Xiaocui came to see what was so strange.
"Oh dear, you went to the riverbank? I almost forgot about this!" Lin Xiaocui said with delight, holding a baby.
Lu Wanqing quickly washed her hands and took the baby from her arms. "The consignment shop said someone wanted it, so we brought it back."
As for the process, it's not important, so I didn't go into details.
Otherwise, with Lin Xiaocui's intelligence, she would definitely have guessed that Xu Bowen had another father.
She had thought about this matter. If she brought it up rashly, neither of them would admit it, which would be very difficult to handle. Since there was no signed identification available, she could only wait for the right opportunity to bring it up. Then they would have no choice but to admit it.
......
A few days passed peacefully, and it was time for Huang Ming to come and pick up the goods again.
Huang Ming arrived in a small truck, looking distressed and seemingly in a bad mood.
From his own words, Lu Wanqing learned about the grudge between him and the garment factory.
The day after that, Huang Ming took a large truck to pick up the goods, but Factory Director Cao turned around and accused him of already taking the goods.
Huang Ming paid eight yuan for 5,000 sets, but he paid 40,000 yuan upfront. The factory told him the goods had already been picked up, which he was definitely not going to agree to!
He thought that Director Cao was saying this on purpose so that he could ask him for a kickback. But Director Cao was very certain that the clothes would not disappear into thin air; he must have taken them by some means.
Neither side would back down, and they almost came to blows.
However, since Director Cao belonged to the collective, Huang Ming could only accept his bad luck and consider it as a loss of 40,000 yuan.
But he didn't stop there. Instead, he demanded that Director Cao double production, saying that the only way to make up for the losses was to increase output.
In order to get more new styles, he naturally came to Lu Wanqing to pick up the goods.
Lu Wanqing didn't care. It didn't matter who she sold these clothes to. Anyway, she already knew Huang Ming's tricks and would never let him release counterfeit products into the market again.
However, she has also decided that once this batch is sold out, she will temporarily stop making cheongsams, only occasionally taking on some other clothing orders, and will take a good rest for a while to take good care of her three babies.
Huang Ming took another 150 items with this truckload of goods, earning 15,000 yuan.
After deducting the 10% public fund contribution paid to the brigade headquarters, the 70-80 yuan given to Chen Xiangxiu, and other costs, the profit is still more than 9,000 yuan. This includes the labor results of Zhao Xiaolan, Lin Chunhua, and Lin Xiaocui. According to the distribution based on their work, each person receives between 1,000 and 2,000 yuan, and I can still earn more than 4,000 yuan myself.
Her savings treasury has grown again, now holding nearly 50,000 yuan.
She was worried because she couldn't find anywhere to spend her money.
If you leave this money in your hands, it will only depreciate over time. It's better to invest it.
Another month passed, and just as she was thinking about what to do, Yang Hui from the brigade headquarters rushed to her house to tell her that someone was looking for her.
"He said he entrusted the shop owner, and I told him to call back in ten minutes. You should come with me to the brigade headquarters right away!" Yang Hui was an impatient person, and seeing that she was still taking her time, she urged her to hurry up.
"It's okay. If you're not here and no one answers the phone, he'll call back," Lu Wanqing joked.
The only telephone in the brigade headquarters was installed in Yang Hui's office, and she spent her days either handling accounts or answering calls.
Over the past year, I've worn out several pairs of shoes just from running around trying to get people to answer the phone.
Because of this, Yang Hui has also accumulated some good reputation in the brigade.
Lu Wanqing rushed to the brigade headquarters and received a call from Polan Li, who asked if she had time tomorrow.
She thought about it for a moment and decided it was no big deal, so she readily agreed to move the stone mill over.
When she returned and told Lin Ye the news, he had no objection. "Then it's a good opportunity to visit Teacher Mu."
They went to Teacher Mu's house last time but found no one home, so they didn't wait long. Tomorrow is the weekend, and the staff don't have to work, so they should be able to meet him.
The next day, Lin Ye borrowed a tractor from the brigade to transport the stone mill.
Fearing the tractor would have to wait too long, they also loaded the bicycles onto the vehicle. Once the stone mill was unloaded, the tractor could leave without taking up too much time.
Just as the tractor was driving on the dusty road in the county town, Lu Wanqing suddenly noticed a large truck passing by in front of her, and Huang Ming seemed to be in the passenger seat.
Lu Wanqing guessed that he was going to pick up goods, so she stopped the tractor, unloaded the bicycle from the trailer, and said to Lin Ye, "I have something to take care of, I'll come find you later!"
"Be careful!" Lin Ye called out from behind her, feeling that her personality had become wilder since she became a mother.
However, whether she was gentle or wild, he liked her very much.
Lu Wanqing was so focused on chasing Huang Ming's truck that she completely missed Lin Ye's intense gaze.
Soon, she saw the truck at the north gate of the garment factory.
Perhaps he was going down to handle some paperwork. Huang Ming jumped out of the car to talk to the security guard, while the truck waited by the roadside.
Lu Wanqing quickly found a secluded spot to enter the space, then disguised herself and went out to chat with the truck driver.
With just a cigarette, Lu Wanqing got all the questions she wanted to know.
This car was indeed used to pick up clothes and head to Dongguan.
"Driver, could you stop here for a bit after you come out? I have a friend in Dongguan, and I'm going to buy some things to take to him. Don't worry, I won't let you make the trip for nothing!" Lu Wanqing said to the driver before leaving.
In those days, being a driver, especially a long-distance driver, was a lucrative job. They often did deliver goods for others because they could pocket the money instead of handing it over to the state-owned vehicle fleet.
The driver readily agreed, and sure enough, he stopped at the entrance for a while half an hour later.
However, Lu Wanqing would definitely not reappear. Instead, she secretly removed the seal from the car, stuffed a note into her clothes, and then resealed the car.
She could certainly put all the clothes into her spatial storage, but if the clothes were gone, the driver would definitely be held responsible. If there were extra items inside the clothes, then it would be a problem between the clothing factory and Huang Ming.
After she finished doing all that, the driver probably didn't wait for anyone and started the car and drove off. A while later, Huang Ming walked out of the factory with a smug look on his face.
After he left the factory, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and put it in his mouth with a smug look on his face, as if to say that he was going to make a fortune again.
The last time Lu Wanqing suddenly entered the factory, her clothes were later stolen, and he even suspected that Lu Wanqing had done it.
But when Lu Wanqing went to her house to pick up her clothes, she didn't say a word. She also felt that her suspicions were ridiculous. She was just a woman who had just given birth. How much power could she have?
Even if she lived another lifetime, she could never compete with him!
