Chapter 1009 Going Back Together
"The conditions in the village are not good. There's nothing much you can ask for, and the weather will soon get hot. Wouldn't it be hard for you and the children to go back?"
Fu Jingyou shook his head in disapproval:
"Be good, you can stay in Beijing. Don't the factory, yard and store here need people?"
Lu Miao rolled his eyes at him unhappily:
"Uncle and aunt don't just want you. If it weren't for the older kids who need to go to school, I would have brought them all back with me."
As for what's going on in the store?
A person in charge as important as Chen Xiangdong is here!
Besides, people go to high places and water flows to low places.
As things get more and more busy, they probably won't have many chances to go back.
"Think about it. If you don't let me go back with Baichuan, then you shouldn't go back either!"
Lu Miao pretended to be stubborn and kicked the ball back to Fu Jingyou.
What can Fu Jingyou say?
I could only hug him in my arms and say "yes" ten thousand times in one second:
"Okay, let's go back together."
"Um!"
Only then was Lu Miao satisfied.
The young couple had their own ideas, so Tang Mei and Lu Yuanzheng naturally wouldn't stop them.
But when it comes to going back to my hometown in the south, there are still a lot of things to pack and prepare.
Lu Miao cleaned up all the clothes that Shi An had taken off and the picture books that the children no longer needed.
I sent it to the post office together with the new books, notebooks, stationery, etc. I bought for Minjie, and sent it directly back to his hometown.
Then he found Chen Xiangdong to arrange work matters.
At present, Chen Xiangdong has been able to skillfully control the company's operations.
Just a little bit.
Previously, Lu Miao withdrew 9,000 yuan from the company account to order imported essential oils. They immediately returned to their hometown and would not be back for a while.
Chen Xiangdong asked when the essential oil would be delivered.
He chose the right time and went to pick it up in time.
It was a very valuable item, and Chen Xiangdong was afraid that an accident might cause further losses.
Lu Miao comforted him and said with a smile:
"There's no point in worrying about this. Just wait patiently! Shipping by sea will take at least two months. Once we arrive at the port, the dock storage point will send a telegram. If I'm not here, you can just go there with the company's relevant documents and money."
Chen Xiangdong said "Oh" as if he understood, then asked with a light hiss:
"Haven't I already paid? Do I have to pay again when I pick up the goods?"
Lu Miao nodded, "You still have to pay import duties."
It's customs tax.
Lu Miao did a rough calculation and said:
"For a 9,000 yuan item, the tax will be around 450 yuan, and there should be some other miscellaneous expenses. Bring some extra money with you."
Although Chen Xiangdong nodded, he was also very frightened:
"This tax is too high. I have to pay hundreds of dollars in tax alone..."
Lu Miao shook his head and said with a smile:
"This is for basic materials. The tariff is calculated at a rate of 5%. For those who pay more, there is a deduction of 10% or 20%."
So much money is deducted for tax alone, what kind of profit is needed to make back the original investment?
Chen Xiangdong shook his head, not daring to think too much.
Lu Miao wrote him another note:
"This is the address and zip code of your brother Fu's hometown in the south. If you need to contact me, please send an expedited telegram. Someone will deliver it there. As long as it is sent before this afternoon, I should receive the message that day."
"good."
Chen Xiangdong nodded and put the note away. Then he thought of something and asked:
"After I delivered the goods to Guangzhou last time, I don't have much soap left. What if I sell them all? Should I continue making them? The essential oils haven't arrived yet either."
"Make it. The essential oils haven't arrived yet, so if you can get some good tea seed oil, make tea seed oil soap first. You saw me mixing it last time. I only need about 200 kilograms of tea seed oil and a certain amount of citric acid. Just use that as a reference. Don't exceed the dosage. Too much citric acid will affect the quality."
Chen Xiangdong nodded and wrote it down carefully:
"good."
After talking about work, Lu Miao mentioned Minmin to Chen Xiangdong.
Worried that Chen Xiangdong wouldn't be able to get the little girl, Lu Miao also said hello to Mei Zi.
Ask them to take time to check it out every once in a while.
After everything was arranged, Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou went to the courtyard on South Street again to water the flowers, plants and trees planted in the yard.
Later, he took Baichuan with him and set out on the journey back south.
I didn't say hello when I came back this time, so no one knew.
Naturally, no one would come to the station to wait after hearing the news in advance.
However, Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou are still relatively lucky.
On the way out of the county town, we happened to meet the brigade's ox cart carrying improved grain seeds.
The family of three took a ox cart along the way, which saved them a lot of trouble.
The countryside gradually becomes busy at this time, and the main farm work is planting beans, grafting sweet potato seedlings, and raising late season rice seedlings.
Another thing is to apply fertilizer to the early season rice, in preparation for harvesting around the Dragon Boat Festival in more than ten days.
In the first few years, Dahe Village reclaimed the back mountain and planted many fruit trees, so there was an additional seasonal work to do, and the orchard had to be taken care of.
In short, all the villagers in Dahe Village are very busy.
Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou entered the village and knocked on the He family's door lock.
The key to the Fu family had always been kept by the old couple of the He family. Now that the door lock had been hit, they couldn't get into the house even if they went back over there.
After brushing off the dust on the threshold, Fu Jingyou sat the mother and daughter down to rest. He was just about to go to the back mountain to look for his uncle and aunt.
Before I could finish my words, I heard a voice calling from the side:
"Hey, why are you back?"
Lu Miao held Bai Chuan's hand, stood up and said with a smile:
"Second sister-in-law."
Tian Guihua, with a basket on her arm, quickly took out her key and opened the door:
"Hurry, hurry, come inside and sit down and rest!"
The two parties exchanged greetings:
"Why did you come back so suddenly this time? Without even saying hello in advance!"
"I'm not busy these days, so I came back to see... What did my second sister-in-law do just now? Where are my uncle and aunt?"
"There's been a lot of work lately. While it's still hot, do as much work as you can in the fields. I brought lunch to my parents because they didn't come home at noon."
Tian Guihua stayed at home and occasionally went to the fields to help the old couple with some work.
Today was the day. Tian Guihua had originally planned to come back to eat, clean up the stove, and then go to the orchard to help.
Unexpectedly, Xiaoliu and his wife came back suddenly.
"Have some tea, sit down and take a rest. I'll go call my parents back!"
After pouring water and settling the family of three, Tian Guihua left the yard while talking.
Not long after, the sound of hoes was heard outside.
Lu Miao walked all the way and just sat down to cool down a bit when Fu Jingyou stood up. She also put down her teacup and stood up.
He Hongjin had a dark face and was covered in sweat. He stood in the main room and was stunned when he saw the people.
"You guys are really back. It's neither the middle of the year nor the end of the year..."
"grandfather!"
He Hongjin grumbled subconsciously.
Before she could say a few words, Xiao Baichuan hugged her thighs.
Xiao Baichuan stood on tiptoe and raised his head and shouted:
"Grandpa, you, you turn on the radio for me!"
This time he didn't stay away from home for too long, and Xiao Baichuan still remembered the time when his grandfather tuned the radio for him.
Happy New Year, babies! It’s 2025~
