Chapter 249
Qin Xiang looked at the nervous Jia Fugui and smiled. "You should ask yourself this question. It's you who wants to be the captain, not me, right?"
Jia Fugui was stunned.
Qin Xiang said, "As far as I know, even though the deputy captain has the title of captain, his salary is much lower. Many people who contact your construction team always go to the captain, and he takes all the benefits. You can't get any, right, as the deputy captain?"
After returning to the capital, Mi Hongjun happened to come to her for something, and she learned about the situation of this construction team from Mi Hongjun.
Captain Lu is a domineering and greedy person. Whenever there is a construction project, he is the one who negotiates with others. Mi Hongjun also heard workers say privately that Captain Lu has made a lot of money from this. Some even said that the reason Captain Lu delayed the construction period was because Qin Xiang did not give him enough benefits, so he did it on purpose.
At that time, Mi Hongjun also suspected that the bricks lost from the construction site were also stolen by Captain Lu, but he had no evidence, and in the end he had no choice but to build a wall.
Mi Hongjun also said at the time, "I've been thinking about how to deal with this Lu guy lately. Since you've taken action, I won't do anything about it."
Then he ran off. Halfway through, he returned and said, "That deputy team leader, Jia Fugui, is quite good. He has a lot of prestige within the construction team. He's the one who leads most of the work, but he can't handle some important matters."
Mi Hongjun is really busy.
Qin Xiang rarely had time, so she didn't bother with him about it and just took over the matter.
Looking at Jia Fugui at this moment, he was not worried at all that Jia Fugui would not agree.
The captain's temptation is too great. Apart from eating and drinking with the bosses and getting benefits after taking on the project, his salary alone is enough to make others jealous.
There is only one word difference between deputy captain and captain. A deputy captain who doesn't want to be a captain is not a good deputy captain. Qin Xiang took advantage of this mentality.
After Qin Xiang finished speaking, Jia Fugui hesitated and worried. He rubbed his hands and said anxiously, "But, but I'm worried that they won't listen to me..."
Qin Xiang smiled, "Who are you talking about? How do they usually work?"
Jia Fugui was stunned again, "You mean..."
"I definitely can't use those sneaky guys," Qin Xiang said. "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. I definitely can't use Captain Lu anymore. Either you have to find a new captain to lead the team, or you all should evacuate immediately. I'll find a new construction team myself."
It was already 1987, and more people were working in the process industry. Various industries had begun to develop, and some private construction teams had appeared.
If it really doesn't work, she would rather ask her father to bring the Qinjiatun team back and she would spend a lot of money to find someone to guide them.
Wouldn't it be better to delay the construction and save our own people?
Seeing her serious expression, Jia Fugui knew that the other party was determined to clean up the team. Jia Fugui couldn't help but say, "Actually, most people are still down-to-earth and willing to work. It's just that Captain Lu asked us to slow down the progress, saying that every day of delay would earn us an extra day's pay."
Qin Xiang believed this, but it didn't mean she could accept it.
She sighed and said, "So what do you mean? Do you want to leave with him through thick and thin, or do you want to take over and let him and his sneaky people get out?"
Jia Fugui's mouth was dry, and he rubbed his fingers for a long time. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will be the captain."
Hearing this, Qin Xiang showed a satisfied look. He took a bottle of soda and poured it for him, saying, "Come on, Captain Jia, we can't drink tonight, so let's have tea instead. I'll toast you a glass."
When Qin Xiang saw Jia Fugui coming, she was already certain that Jia Fugui would agree. If he had no idea at all, Jia Fugui would not come tonight.
Now that he had received the promise, Qin Xiang was naturally more satisfied.
Jia Fugui held his wine glass, smiled awkwardly, and asked carefully, "Then, what should I do?"
Qin Xiang laughed. "You know this best. After all, you are the one who knows Captain Lu and those people best, not me. Isn't that right?"
Jia Fugui smiled awkwardly.
"Come and eat."
There was a lot of food, and Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing ate happily. Although Mi Hongjun was captured, he didn't say a word the whole time, and just stared at Jia Fugui.
Jia Fugui felt a little nervous when he looked at him, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
After dinner, Jia Fugui rode his bicycle back home at night. Mi Hongjun said excitedly, "Sister, you are really bad. You let them mess up internally and clean up the mess on their own."
Qin Xiang gave him an annoyed look and reached out to hit him, "If you don't know how to talk, then don't talk. Seriously speaking, I have to deal with the consequences of your responsibility. I haven't dealt with you yet."
Mi Hongjun quickly hid behind Meng Huaiqing, and said guiltily, "I am too busy."
Qin Xiang snorted and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Of course she also knew that Mi Hongjun was busy, otherwise she would have beaten him long ago.
This is how things stand for now. All they can do is wait for news from Captain Jia.
The construction period does not wait for anyone. If there is no news from Jia Fugui within three days, she will really go directly to the county government to replace this team.
Fortunately, Jia Fugui did not disappoint. Perhaps the captain position was indeed very tempting. After only two days, Mi Hongjun came to tell Qin Xiang excitedly, "It's done. Lu Dajiang has been taken away, and those sneaky people have been taken back by the construction team. Now Jia Fugui has calmed down the workers and has accelerated the progress to start construction."
Qin Xiang was a little curious, "How did he do it?"
Lu Dajiang looks like an honest man, but Jia Fugui doesn't look that smart either. How did the honest man succeed in confronting the treacherous Lu Dajiang?
Mi Hongjun said bitterly, "It's nothing. We just found all the bricks they stole, catching them red-handed. I thought everything would be fine after the wall was built, but who would have thought they would still sneak around and steal things. Besides bricks, they also stole some building materials like cement. The night before yesterday was exactly the time they agreed to move, so we had Jia Fugui and Li Ming block them right there, catching them red-handed. Lu Dajiang and the others were taken directly to the police station, and how the police deal with them from now on is none of our business."
He paused, then continued, "Anyway, this incident involved more than a dozen people, and the rest were shocked. Some were panicking, and that's when Jia Fugui stepped forward and said he would continue to lead them. I also had Li Ming speak a few words to scare them, and they all started to listen to Jia Fugui."
After he said it simply, Qin Xiang understood. She nodded and said, "Okay, then you should go there more often. I don't think that Li Ming is particularly smart."
Mi Hongjun laughed. "It's not that he's not smart, it's that he lacks experience. Also, you've met too many smart people, which makes them look stupid. After all, not everyone graduated from Tsinghua University."
Mi Hongjun looked at the college students coming and going around him and finally felt envious. "That's great."
Qin Xiang nodded, "It's not too late for you to work hard now."
Mi Hongjun shook his head. "Forget it. Even if I come to school, I won't be with Jingjing. I can't have a campus romance. It's meaningless to come alone."
Qin Xiang: "..."
She was inexplicably fed a mouthful of dog food, and she waved her hand, "Get lost."
So Mi Hongjun left quickly.
The construction team suddenly lost more than a dozen people, and the team leader was replaced, so they really had to keep an eye on that area. Mi Hongjun was so busy that he suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Hao Jingjing for a long time.
Because Hao Jingjing was mentioned just now, Mi Hongjun really missed her, so he ran to the radio station to find Hao Jingjing, but he heard that Hao Jingjing was out on business and had been gone for several days.
Mi Hongjun suddenly felt aggrieved. His Jingjing left without saying a word to him.
Things at the construction site were temporarily settled, and Qin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief.
After breathing a sigh of relief, I started preparing for other work.
May Day is not far away and the weather is getting hot. Summer clothes have been put on the shelves, and there are still some spring clothes left. Qin Xiang called again and asked each store to report the number of spring clothes, select the styles that can still be sold in autumn, and put the rest in the discount area for discount.
Don’t think you’ll be at a loss if you get a discount. The discount is only based on the original selling price. If you calculate carefully... ahem, you can actually still make some profit.
But for consumers who have limited spending power but like to pursue beauty, it is an excellent consumption time.
Almost all stores announce discounts, and people flock to buy them. The stock sells out quickly, and some people arrive late and their favorite items are gone.
Qin Xiang couldn't help but sigh, this is the benefit of the advertising effect. Nowadays, the national TV station is still broadcasting advertisements every day. Li Xiu Lian has become a household name because of the advertisements. It is said that many directors have asked her to film.
For this reason, Li Xiulian even came to see Qin Xiang and expressed her gratitude to her, saying, "As long as you need me, I will shoot the commercial for you no matter how busy I am."
Qin Xiang couldn't ask for more, and even thought that the better Li Xiulian's career was, the better it would be for her advertising, so she immediately agreed, "Thank you very much."
The fate between people is so wonderful. She established a long-term cooperative relationship with Li Xiu Lian, but Yun Na, whom she first met, has gradually drifted apart. After Yun Na was appreciated by the director for shooting commercials, she started shooting movies outside one after another and came to school less and less, so the cooperation with her was no longer continued.
Fortunately, Cui Xueer helped to shoot twice, which opened up the situation.
The positioning of clothing products in the 'Xiangsi' store is originally different, and now the business in the capital is pretty good. Most of the customers are old customers who were introduced by each other, so the business is pretty good.
After finishing all these, Qin Xiang started thinking about the branch stores again. Since the beginning of the month, Tan Xiu has taken people to develop new stores, basically all along the Ningcheng line. After the development along the line is completed, they will prepare to develop in some cities with convenient transportation. Tan Xiu is very excited and wants to open "Xianglian" stores all over China.
Qin Xiang packed up her things and went downstairs, ready to go back to school.
Qin Baotian hurried over, "Qin Xiang."
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "What's wrong, Dad? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
Qin Baotian said, "I really want to see Wang Junsheng and Cui Hong."
Qin Xiang was a little surprised. She hadn't seen these two people for a while. She still remembered that when she went to Haicheng before the New Year last year, she seemed to have seen Wang Junsheng. Later, she returned to the capital and didn't see him again. She thought they went directly to Haicheng, but she didn't expect them to come back again.
"Don't worry about them, they have nothing to do with us."
Qin Baotian said indignantly, "Looking at them dressed like dogs, I feel uncomfortable."
Qin Baotian knew everything that had happened to Wang Junsheng and the others in the capital before. People are like this. They feel happy when they know that their enemies are not doing well, so he never asked about it and never cared about it.
But just now when he saw the two of them walking by arm in arm, looking very well dressed, Qin Baotian felt very unhappy and wanted to go up and hit them with a brick.
He did something shameless and yet he still had the nerve to hang around them. Where does he get the nerve from?
Qin Xiang looked at her father's angry expression. Although she found it funny, she also felt warm. It felt so good to be loved and cared for by her parents.
In the past, Qin Baotian was reserved and not good at expressing his feelings towards them. Now, Qin Baotian has broadened his horizons, met more people, and his mentality has changed.
Qin Xiang comforted him, "Dad, what happens to them has nothing to do with us. We don't need to dirty our hands and make ourselves unhappy because of such people."
"I feel disgusted when I think about what they did in the past. And that Cui Hong, not only did she rob Wang Junsheng, she even wrote a letter to report you. What kind of person is she? It's too easy for her to be locked up for just a few days." Qin Baotian was furious.
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "They have been punished. Besides, they can kill themselves without any help from us."
She hadn't dared to tell her father about Cui Hong's malicious attempt to drag her into this, otherwise she was really afraid that her father would go to Wang Junsheng's door with an axe.
Qin Xiang came out and saw Wang Junsheng and Cui Hong again.
In the middle of summer, Wang Junsheng wore a gray suit and three-jointed leather shoes. His hair was shiny and slicked with so much hair oil that he looked very funny.
Cui Hong was also dressed beautifully, wearing a bright red knee-length ruffled dress and putting on makeup, which made her look even more charming and beautiful.
Qin Xiang couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. Her father had just encountered him and was passing by again.
Could she suspect that these two people had made money and were deliberately showing off in front of her?
Qin Xiang felt that the two men were just clowns, so she turned around and left.
Zhao Ping hurriedly followed, and Cui Hong called out, "Qin Xiang."
Qin Xiang turned around and saw Cui Hong holding Wang Junsheng's arm and slowly walking up to her. "Qin Xiang, long time no see."
"Yeah, long time no see." Qin Xiang looked Cui Hong up and down and said with a smile, "This is only in the new society. If it were in the old society, not everyone would be able to wear such bright red."
Cui Hong's face changed immediately. "Qin Xiang, don't go too far. Don't think you can be so arrogant just because you've made a little money. Do you really think that others can't make this much money?"
"Yes, you can make money." Qin Xiang glanced at the two of them with disdain. "One likes selling meat, and the other likes selling cucumbers. You two are really a perfect match. You would be sorry if you didn't make a fortune."
After she finished speaking, Cui Hong was stunned for a moment, but Wang Junsheng reacted and immediately blushed. "Qin Xiang, don't go too far. We came here to talk to you because we were once husband and wife. I didn't expect you to say such harsh words. You're not married, and yet you say such vulgar things. It's really shocking. I wonder if that big boss in Gangcheng knows about it."
"Whether he knows or not is none of your business." Qin Xiang smiled. "I can't believe you two can sleep in the same bed. Isn't that disgusting?"
As she spoke, she couldn't help but laugh even more happily. Cui Hong snorted and said, "I don't know what you are talking about. We came here just to tell you, don't be complacent."
Qin Xiang nodded seriously, "Okay, I won't be proud. I'll just quietly watch you guys make a fortune and become the richest man in China, okay?"
After she finished speaking, she and Zhao Ping turned and left. Cui Hong glanced at Wang Junsheng from behind and said softly, "Junsheng, you have to believe me. Although I made mistakes in the past, it was all for the good of both of us in the future."
"I understand." Wang Junsheng's facial muscles were stiff, and his words were also stiff. "Don't believe her lies. Ever since I've been with you, you're the only one in my heart."
Wang Junsheng felt disgusted when he said this.
Cui Hong's eyes were red, and she shouted "Junsheng" and threw herself into Wang Junsheng's arms.
Wang Junsheng smiled stiffly and patted her on the back. His face showed disdain, but he said gently, "Okay, you've been wronged."
If Cui Hong didn't need to please those big bosses, how could he be with such a bad woman.
He thought so, and Cui Hong was not much better. She leaned on Wang Junsheng's chest and looked very disgusted. Wang Junsheng had his thing broken by the rich woman's man last time, and it couldn't be used anymore. A man who can't use it is just a eunuch, right?
If it weren't for the position of the richest man's wife, she wouldn't bother getting involved with Wang Junsheng. When Wang Junsheng made a lot of money, opened a company and became the richest man, she would definitely find a way to divorce him.
The two people, each with their own ulterior motives, were thinking about their own things, and their deep affection and friendship made passers-by turn their heads.
"It's indecent."
"How shameless! Hugging each other in the street."
Cui Hong doesn't care about these things, she only cares about a good life.
Wang Junsheng said, "Let's go. We have a dinner party tonight. Whether it can be done depends on you."
Cui Hong bit her lip and said aggrievedly, "I understand, Junsheng..."
"I know you're feeling wronged. I know everything." Wang Junsheng hugged her again. "I know everything. Just bear with it for a while. You won't suffer any real loss anyway. Once we get the goods and make a profit, we'll have enough funds and I can start a company and a factory."
Cui Hong suppressed her disgust and had to agree.
The behavior of the two was nothing to Qin Xiang.
For people like Wang Junsheng and Cui Hong, even if they are rich, it cannot be obtained through legitimate channels.
What’s past is past.
Back at school, Zhao Wenna handed her another notebook and said, "Boss, please check it."
Qin Xiang opened it and saw that there were more than a dozen summer skirts in various styles. Some were in Zhao Wenna's style, while some seemed to have changed. But there was no doubt that the designs were all very beautiful. Zhao Wenna not only designed simple drafts, but also added colors to several styles. Qin Xiang was moved by the pictures.
She was surprised and asked, "Are you trying a new style?"
Zhao Wenna nodded hurriedly, "Yes, the previous style was good, but I always felt that it was a bit petty. This time it's more elegant."
Qin Xiang disagreed, "Both styles are good, but they can't be said to be petty, otherwise it would seem that I have poor taste. That one is more gentle, and the current one is more generous. I think those girls like royal sisters will like it."
Zhao Wenna laughed, "For example, Hao Jingjing?"
"Yes, I think it suits her."
The two were just talking about Hao Jingjing when news came from Hao Jingjing.
It is said that Hao Jingjing is sick.
