The number of checkouts each time is several times higher than before. If it weren't for the system upgrade and the huge increase in space volume, he would definitely be worried.
The resumption of the New Year holiday has made Tang County extremely lively. People are happily preparing supplies for the New Year. Some people want to take this opportunity to make some money, so they set up stalls in the market to sell things, among which couplets are the most popular.
The style of these couplets is different from those used during the storm. They are full of festive meaning and therefore very popular, allowing the stall owner to make a lot of money.
The Li family did not buy it and still asked Li Mei to write it.
As early as when Li Mei became the director of the fertilizer factory, the neighbors around her no longer asked her for help in writing couplets, and this is even more so now.
This saved Li Mei a lot of trouble.
Li Xu drank ginger and sugar water every night, but his cold not only did not get better, but became worse. Sometimes he would suddenly start to run his nose while he was talking.
Sometimes it makes him feel embarrassed.
But there was no other way. I had to freeze in the snow for several hours every day, and even if I took medicine, my cold would get worse.
The annual leave gave Li Xu a chance to recuperate, and he planned to take this opportunity to recover from his cold.
But he didn't plan to take medicine.
Because it is unlucky to take medicine in the first month of the year.
The situation of the other people in the car team was similar to his. They all had severe colds and were unwilling to take medicine during the first month of the lunar year. They could only find ways to make themselves sweat in the hope of recovering faster.
On New Year's Eve, while the children were away, Li Xu talked to Li Ju about his business.
Li Ju trusted him very much and planned to leave some living expenses for him and give him the rest of the money.
In the first few years of Li Ju's work, all her salary was given to Zhou Miao.
Only after Li Chen came back from the countryside did she finally have her salary in her own hands.
Although it was only six years from that time until she was admitted to university, she did not have to hand over her salary, plus the money Li Xu and others gave her and the money she earned from selling her work.
She had more than three thousand yuan in her hand.
Li Xu asked her to keep more money, but she refused.
There was no choice but Li Xu agreed to accept it.
The money is kept with Sun Xiu, and he will take it when he does business.
Li Xu then talked about his plans for his job as a driver. After listening to him, everyone had no objection.
From the first to the third day of the first lunar month, the Li family visited relatives as they did in previous years.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, everyone officially goes to work.
When he arrived at the unit, Li Xu first said something to Uncle Xu at the gate, and then walked to the car team.
When his colleagues came over, Li Xu was overjoyed to see them wiping their noses from time to time.
The reason for this is that he has recovered from his cold.
But he didn't laugh at others out loud.
After all, there are still more than ten days before the goods are transported, and he cannot guarantee that he will not catch a cold again.
They had not been chatting in the snow for long when Li Xu saw Uncle Xu coming over.
He stood up to greet him. Uncle Xu said with a smile, "You made me come all the way here just to tell you something. Can you tell me now?"
Li Xu chuckled and said, "No, I have to call Uncle Liu."
"Okay, I'll go say hello to them first."
Uncle Xu has the best relationship with Li Xu and Liu Gang, and he also has a good relationship with other members of the car team.
After everyone greeted each other, Li Xu took Liu Gang and Uncle Xu into his car.
It seemed a bit crowded for three grown men to sit here, so Li Xu didn't waste any time and got straight to the point. "Uncle Xu, Uncle Liu, I plan to resign this year. I..."
"What are you going to do?" Li Xu was interrupted by Liu Gang before he could finish his words.
"I'm going to quit."
Liu Gang now understood what was going on. He and Uncle Xu exchanged a look of astonishment, then both said quickly, "You're doing a great job, why are you quitting?"
"Xiao Xu, don't be impulsive about this. Ask your family for their opinions first."
"I've thought about it carefully, and my family has no objections," Li Xu replied. "I plan to quit my job and start my own business, but not now. I'd like to apply for an apprenticeship. Uncle Xu was instrumental in getting me into the car team, so I'll ask him if he wants the job. If not, then Uncle Liu will consider it."
Although Uncle Xu had long since repaid his favor for arranging him for the motorcade, Uncle Xu still owed him a lot of favors.
But when he gave away his job, he still gave priority to Uncle Xu.
This has nothing to do with personal relationships, but is because of the friendship between the two parties.
Uncle Xu thought for a moment and then said, "Let's put aside the question of whether to work or not. Let's talk about quitting your job and starting a business first."
In the past, in order to raise funds for industrial development, the county leaders allowed farmers to do business in the market. In addition, the storm did not have much impact on Tang County, so now many people set up stalls on the streets, so Uncle Xu has no prejudice against doing business.
He just wanted to know what Li Xu was thinking.
Li Xu didn't say much, just that he was very optimistic about the prospects of doing business.
Yet this sentence is enough.
Uncle Xu and the other two knew his vision very well, and they knew even better that he would not miss a single thing as long as he was sure of it.
So Uncle Xu stopped talking about this and responded to Li Xu's words, "My three children are all in college. I don't know who will get this job from me in the future, let alone yours."
The implication was obvious: he didn't want Li Xu's job.
Li Xu looked at Liu Gang, "Uncle Liu, what do you say?"
"I don't want it either, Xiaoxu. Tell me about doing business. I'm interested in it now."
"Are you interested in the business I want to do, or in the matter itself?"
"All interested."
