Chapter 173
As soon as these words fell, Secretary Chen was startled. He secretly glanced at Liang Qiurun's expression and thought, this might be a change in the situation.
Half an hour later.
Almost all the middle and senior management staff of the meat processing plant are here.
Liang Qiurun glanced at them for a moment. Just as everyone was getting anxious, he spoke. "Start with the sales department. Report to me on your recent work. It would be best if you could clearly specify what you're doing today."
As soon as these words fell, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
You know, Liang Qiurun has been working less overtime recently and has been focusing on his family, so people like them are taking advantage of the situation.
Besides, it was summer, and the meat processing plant was not busy at all, so, essentially, everyone was slacking off.
Liang Qiurun suddenly pointed this out and asked everyone to report their work records, and everyone was a little confused.
You look at me, I look at you.
In the end, everything was pushed onto the sales manager. "Manager Li, you go first, you go first."
"After all, the sales department is the golden goose of our company."
this--
Section Chief Li was also confused, sweating profusely from anxiety. "Recently, recently, recently."
Liang Qiurun took out the sales slip and said, "Look at the sales slip."
"Is it true that on average only fifty pigs are produced per day these days?"
He actually knew this data better than the head of the sales department. This made Section Chief Li nod his head, "Yes, yes, it should be this number."
Look at the children, they are all terrified.
Liang Qiurun, "Continue."
This report lasted for two hours. When everyone came out of the factory director's office, they were all trembling with sweat dripping down their foreheads.
After they had walked away, everyone started whispering, "Director Liang, what's going on? Why are you suddenly arresting us again?"
"The last time he caught us working was when he was first transferred to the meat processing plant. What? Is he going to be transferred?"
"Otherwise, it's pretty good for everyone to just live like this."
This resonated with everyone. "That's right. After all, it's the organization that pays our wages, not Director Liang. Why is he asking us to work like donkeys?"
Liang Qiurun knew that after he had done his homework, his subordinates would have opinions about him. But there were some things you couldn't just ignore because you had opinions.
After Liang Qiurun's conversation with Jiang Meishu, he encountered a serious crisis. After checking the ground, he found that the current situation in the factory was more serious than he expected.
If this continues, there will be only one consequence.
In the future, state-owned factories will inevitably be replaced by private factories.
He is also responsible for the livelihoods of more than a thousand workers, who have more than a thousand families behind them.
Perhaps only those who shoulder heavy responsibilities understand how great the pressure is.
Liang Qiurun sat alone in the office until evening.
He finally made a decision. "Secretary Chen," he called out. Secretary Chen dozed off in the chair. Liang Qiurun spoke, and Secretary Chen immediately woke up. "Leader."
Liang Qiurun then noticed that Secretary Chen had fallen asleep. He pinched his brows and said, "Sorry to bother you."
Secretary Chen stood up and rubbed his eyes. "How could that be? Leader, I exist to serve you."
His job is to meet all the requirements of the leadership.
Liang Qiurun was silent for a moment. He had seen and remembered everything the other party had done. After a while, he whispered, "Help me find the phone numbers of the directors' offices of several meat processing plants in the south. I need to call them to communicate."
All these details are handled by Secretary Chen.
After listening to this, Secretary Chen immediately got busy. He recorded all the phone calls in a hard cover notebook.
In a moment.
He took it out and said, "I have five factories here. The first is the Yangcheng Meat Processing Plant, the second is the Yangcheng Breeding Farm, and the third is the Pengcheng Breeding Farm."
"There are also Zhuzhou and Shanzhou ones. Do you want any?"
"Give it all to me."
Secretary Chen hummed, handed over the phone number, and then he waited at the door.
The call lasted until half past nine when Liang Qiurun finally came out of the office. He said to Secretary Chen, "Book me the earliest train ticket to Guangzhou."
Secretary Chen raised his wrist to check the time. "Boss, it's already half past nine. Even the earliest ticket will be tomorrow."
"That's okay, then tomorrow, the sooner the better." Liang Qiurun said calmly, "After it's settled, you can pick me up. This time we'll go to Yangcheng together."
Secretary Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect Liang Qiurun to actually invite him to join. He nodded immediately, "Okay, Leader."
The answer was clear and crisp, without any hesitation. This was the reason why Secretary Chen could become Liang Qiurun's right-hand man. No matter what the situation was, he always obeyed the conditions with the fastest response.
Liang Qiurun, "Thank you for your hard work."
"The bonus will be doubled at the end of the year."
This is a qualified leader. Although he has a lot of things to do and a lot of work to do, he pays people with real money. So Secretary Chen follows Liang Qiurun, and even though his workload is two to three times that of others, his salary is still the same.
He had no complaints about this, but instead expressed gratitude, "Thank you, leader."
*
Liang Qiurun got home a little after ten o'clock. Jiang Meishu, who was rare, did not rest at all. She was dividing the spoils with Liang Rui.
"Here's your money, a total of 10,600 yuan, please count it." Jiang Meishu handed over several thick stacks of big unity bills.
Liang Rui was a little surprised, "So many?"
Jiang Meishu hummed, "I'll take 40%, your aunt will take 40%, and you'll take 20%."
Liang Rui, "I can't take so much." He directly took out half of the money and returned it to Jiang Meishu. "When I advanced the money, I gave you fifteen hundred. The remaining five hundred is the money you helped me advance."
The cost was 10,000 yuan, of which Jiang Meishu and Jiang Meilan each contributed 4,000 yuan, and Liang Rui contributed 2,000 yuan. In the end, he did not have enough money, so Jiang Meishu gave him the 500 yuan.
Looking at the money Liang Rui handed over, Jiang Meishu raised her eyebrows, "You really don't want it? Look carefully, this is five thousand yuan."
"No, this is yours."
Liang Rui gritted his teeth.
Jiang Meishu smiled and said, "Forget it. Keep the capital. You can use the 10,600 yuan. Take out 600 yuan for high school. If you save a little, it will be enough for two years. Keep the remaining 10,000 yuan as capital. Don't let yourself be without capital when you start a business next time."
"What capital?"
Liang Qiurun came in wearing a white shirt. His skin was fair, and the white shirt made him look even more elegant and clean. Although he was already in his thirties, there was not a trace of grease on his body.
Instead, it becomes more gentle and clear.
When Jiang Meishu saw Liang Qiurun, she was stunned for a moment, then rushed over, "Lao Liang, why are you off work so early?"
On weekdays, Liang Qiurun doesn't go home until midnight.
Liang Qiurun, "I didn't stay up too long today." He unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his protruding Adam's apple, looking both restrained and charming.
Jiang Meishu was stunned.
"You haven't answered my question yet." Liang Qiurun raised his hand and tapped her forehead. "What capital?"
Jiang Meishu said blankly, "Last time I went to Yangcheng to make money, I asked Liang Rui to collect all the profits so that he would not have no capital to do business next time."
"How much?" Liang Qiurun took off his shirt and wore only a short-sleeved shirt. The weather was too hot, so he picked up the enamel pot and took a sip of cold boiled water. The next second, he heard Jiang Meishu say, "Ten thousand six hundred."
"How many?"
Liang Qiurun almost couldn't hold the cup.
"One thousand and six hundred."
Now, the whole house fell silent.
Liang Qiurun muttered after a while, "After a trip to Yangcheng, this kid actually made so much money?"
“Not much.”
Liang Rui deliberately hurt him, "I haven't earned half of what my stepmother has earned. She earns more than 20,000 yuan by herself."
"Dad." He walked up to Liang Qiurun with a sympathetic look on his face. "You are the poorest among all our family members."
Liang Qiurun, "..."
"If you don't work hard, you'll be relying on your wife and son in the future."
After Liang Rui said this, he ran away with the money. Nonsense, if he didn't run away, would he be beaten?
As soon as Liang Rui left, Liang Feng also ran away. Now only Liang Qiurun and Jiang Meishu were left in the bedroom. Liang Qiurun stood there for a long time before he asked, "Is business in the south so profitable?"
His monthly salary was 290 yuan, even after the salary increase. He had always believed that his salary was good, and that he was among the best in the entire capital. However, his wife and son gave him a blow, telling him that he could not even support his wife and children with this salary.
Jiang Meishu thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't make money."
"How do you say that?"
"We make money because we're backed by the department store. If we go out to buy goods privately and then resell them on the black market, we might make money, but we might also lose our lives." She said seriously, "Lao Liang, the atmosphere in the capital is definitely different from that in the south. If we ship this batch of goods ourselves, it's hard not to get people killed."
"If you take human lives into account, the money earned isn't that much."
Risk and reward go hand in hand.
Liang Qiurun put down the enamel pot, his warm face thoughtful for a long time, and then he said, "In the early stage, at least don't lose contact with my second sister-in-law."
"You guys would rather make less money than lose the department store."
Jiang Meishu hummed, "I know."
"So we guarantee that our second sister-in-law's department store will be the exclusive supplier."
Liang Qiurun nodded. He watched the person in front of him change one after another, and thought to himself that he had to change too.
Otherwise, he would become the most backward one in the family.
"I might have to go to Guangzhou tomorrow."
"Ah?" Jiang Meishu was a little surprised. "Why so sudden?"
Liang Qiurun whispered, "After you told me about the changes in Yangcheng, I wanted to go there."
"The meat processing plant is now at a critical moment. I want to go to Guangzhou to see how they manage and operate it, and then I can think about what the future of our meat processing plant should be."
He looked out the window. It was eleven o'clock in the capital, a hot summer day. The old locust tree was rustling in the evening breeze. A silver crescent moon hung in the sky, which was very beautiful.
"Jiang Jiang, if you fall behind, you will be beaten."
"I can take a beating myself, but the workers behind me can't." This was the first time Liang Qiurun showed his vulnerability in front of Jiang Meishu. "I have more than a thousand workers behind me, and I am responsible for their future."
He was responsible for the livelihood of these people, who had wives, children, and elderly parents behind them. They all depended on the meat processing plant.
If the Capital Meat Processing Plant is replaced by a private factory and goes bankrupt in the future, he hopes that day will come later.
After Jiang Meishu finished listening, she paused and murmured, "Lao Liang, this is the general trend. How can you change it alone?"
She felt a little sad and distressed. "To be honest, if that day really comes, I would rather you quit your job and come back. After all, our family doesn't need you to make a living."
Liang Qiurun knew what she meant, but he just shook his head. He turned his back to her, his posture straight and his back cold, "I don't want to."
"I also want to try harder and see if I can change the fate of the factory."
Also change his destiny.
Jiang Meishu didn't seem surprised that Liang Qiurun rejected her.
This is the real Liang Qiurun.
He is both proud and capable. Even when faced with a desperate situation, he will not give up, but will find a way to break through.
Thinking of this, Jiang Meishu smiled slightly. She stretched out her hands and hugged Liang Qiurun's thin waist from behind. Liang Qiurun stiffened, but she didn't let go. She just asked softly, "When do you leave tomorrow? How long will you be gone?"
Liang Qiurun shook his head. "Secretary Chen is booking the tickets. We don't know the exact time yet, or how long we'll be gone." He held Jiang Meishu's hand and whispered, "We don't know yet. We can only go and see how the study is going."
Jiang Meishu supported him without any hesitation, "Don't worry, I'm at home. I'll go and send Liang Rui off when he starts high school, and I'll also take care of Mom."
She is always like this. No matter when he works overtime or is on a business trip, she never complains.
This made Liang Qiurun feel relieved, but also gave him an indescribable feeling.
"Why don't you ask me to stay?" He turned around and looked down at her.
Jiang Meishu, "..."
This bastard is really ungrateful.
Jiang Meishu bit her back teeth and gritted her teeth, "If I ask you to stay, will you stay at home?"
Liang Qiurun was stunned for a moment, "No."
He would not hesitate to discuss such an important matter concerning the future of the factory because of sentimental reasons.
Jiang Meishu rolled her eyes. "That's it. Even if I try to persuade you to stay, you won't stay. So why should I try to persuade you to stay?"
"It's just like if I were to go out on business, I wouldn't stay even if you asked me to."
Jiang Meishu raised her hand, patted Liang Qiurun's shoulder, and said earnestly, "Lao Liang, please don't be so childish in the adult world, okay?"
They have long passed the age where they need each other's constant company.
Liang Qiurun was speechless. Under the moonlight, his face seemed a little hurt. His voice was low and his emotions were a little out of control. "Jiang Jiang, can't you just stick to me?"
Don't always be so indifferent.
If he is on a business trip, let him go on a business trip.
If he wants to work overtime, let him work overtime.
She never objects, nor does she get angry or jealous, which makes him feel extremely insecure.
Jiang Meishu seemed to be meeting Liang Qiurun for the first time. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Lao Liang, listen to what you are saying."
"Are you still Liang Qiurun?"
Is this the Liang Qiurun she knows, the emotionally stable, cold and distant one?
Liang Qiurun answered simply, "Yes."
He looked at her, his eyes fixed on her, with a hint of grievance that Jiang Meishu couldn't understand. "I just wanted you to make a fuss. You didn't allow me to go on a sudden business trip and asked me to stay at home with you."
"That way I'll have a feeling that you care about me."
But not now.
Jiang Meishu was too generous and too indulgent towards him, as if she had no love or possession at all.
This made Liang Qiurun a little anxious.
Jiang Meishu felt that the person seemed quite strange.
In her previous life, her sister married Liang Qiurun and had a quarrel with him all her life, hoping that Liang Qiurun would take some time off from work to see his wife, but Liang Qiurun didn't do so, not even once.
Her sister spent her whole life in loneliness.
In this life, she did the exact opposite of her sister. She never cared whether Liang Qiurun worked overtime, was on a business trip, or was not at home.
I even have no desire for him.
Let him go wherever he wants.
She can quietly do what she likes.
But in this life, Liang Qiurun has changed and become a person who cares about feelings.
Would a cold and aloof workaholic care about feelings?
Who would believe this if I told them?
Jiang Meishu stared at Liang Qiurun for a long time. She pursed her lips and whispered, "Lao Liang, are you serious?"
Liang Qiurun hummed.
He never lies or cheats.
Jiang Meishu felt a very strange feeling. She thought about it for a long time, and then tentatively asked, "Then don't go on a business trip. Stay at home with me this time, not with me, right?"
She gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Then divorce!"
Before he could finish his words, Liang Qiurun picked up Jiang Meishu and hugged her sideways. Jiang Meishu screamed in surprise. Liang Qiurun looked down at her, their breaths intertwined. He whispered, "Don't say that."
"What?"
Before Jiang Meishu could finish her words, Liang Qiurun kissed her and said in a broken voice, "Divorce."
"Don't say these two words."
They can quarrel and be angry, but they cannot say the word divorce.
Jiang Meishu understood. She put her arms around his neck and asked, "So you're running away from home?"
Biting his lip, she smiled mischievously, "If you go on a business trip without me, I will run away from home and leave you without a wife, Liang Qiurun!"
When she said this, her big eyes curved like a little fox stealing some fish.
So cute.
Liang Qiurun's heart softened when she saw it, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
That night, the two seemed to know that they were about to part ways, and they were extremely serious and devoted.
Jiang Meishu didn't know how many times she had soared into the sky. That kind of extreme peak made her whole body tremble.
In the end, her waist was so sore that she covered her waist with her hands, tears welling up in her eyes. She shook his arms and cried, "I don't want it anymore."
"sleep!"
Unfortunately, Liang Qiurun was a tireless old ox. He bent down and kissed her forehead, "Go to sleep, I'll comfort you."
He looked at the body but it showed no intention of coming out.
Jiang Meishu cursed the beast inwardly. When she woke up again, it was already noon. She felt as if she had no idea what year it was.
She touched the bed beside her out of habit. The bed was already cold. She didn't know how long Liang Qiurun had been gone.
Jiang Meishu jumped up and almost fell down. She gritted her teeth and said, "Liang Qiurun!"
Liang Qiurun, who had already boarded the train, sneezed, and as if by telepathy, he asked Secretary Chen, "Did you tell your family before you left?
Secretary Chen was carrying the suitcase, and he nodded, "I must explain it, otherwise my wife will be very upset with me."
"She said I didn't tell her I was on a business trip and didn't treat her as my wife."
Hearing this, Liang Qiurun's eyes darkened. "Secretary Chen, if a husband is away on business and working overtime and doesn't come home, and his wife never asks, why do you think that is?"
Secretary Chen blurted out, "His wife doesn't love him."
Liang Qiurun, "..."
Secretary Chen looked at Liang Qiurun's expression and suddenly had a bad guess. His leader might be asking about him.
When Secretary Chen thought of this, he wanted to give himself a slap in the face!
You always bring up things that are not related to the topic!
The work has really been done.
Unfortunately, Liang Qiurun still hadn't let him go. "If you don't care, it means you don't care about the other person in your heart, right?"
He began to ask Secretary Chen, the emotional expert.
Secretary Chen gritted his teeth and hummed, "Probably." He took out eggs, burritos, tea, Beibingyang soda, melon seeds, pills, and Band-Aids from his suitcase.
"My wife prepared these for me."
He pretended to be stupid and asked tentatively, "Boss, does your friend's wife prepare these things for him every time he goes on a business trip?"
Liang Qiurun's face turned ashen, and he said nothing.
Won't.
Not even once.
When he was on a business trip, Jiang Meishu wouldn't even prepare a needle for him.
Liang Qiurun's heart ached when he thought of this.
His Jiang Jiang doesn't love him.
*
Jiang Meishu woke up and went to the bathroom, but she didn't want to move. Her whole body felt like it was falling apart, so she lay on the bed to rest and watch a story.
If she knew what Liang Qiurun was thinking, she would definitely knock Liang Qiurun's head open!
Yes, yes, yes!
She didn't like him, and then the bed in their house collapsed.
And more than once.
That's what I don't like.
Jiang Meishu was too lazy to pay attention to him. She rested at home for three consecutive days, and Liang Rui started other business again.
He makes popsicles, ice cream, ice packs, and Arctic Ocean soda.
After a summer vacation, he was 78 degrees darker, but his wallet was fatter. He and Liang Feng earned more than 1,300 yuan in a summer vacation. If they split it equally, each of them could get more than 600 yuan, which was really good.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for him to start school.
Jiang Meishu specially prepared their luggage and sent them to No. 1 High School. Since Secretary Chen was not there, there was no one to drive them, so they had to ride bicycles.
Liang Feng had a large bag of luggage on his bicycle, while Liang Rui had his on the front bar, with Jiang Meishu sitting in the back.
They just came out.
Liang's mother came out to see them off. "It's not far to No. 1 High School. After you've seen the environment, come back early. It's too hot outside."
Jiang Meishu hummed.
Liang's mother was worried, so she told Liang Rui, "No. 1 High School is a good school. Don't cause trouble when you go there. Study hard with Liang Feng and apply to the University of Science and Technology where Jiangnan Fang is."
Although Liang Rui was impatient, he finally said "hmm" and agreed. As soon as they walked out of the courtyard gate, they saw Chen Hongjiao coming out to send Liang Haibo to school.
Liang Haibo didn't get into No. 1 High School, but took the entrance exam for No. 6 Middle School. Strictly speaking, he was still a few points short of getting into No. 6 Middle School. It was only because Liang Haibo's father used his connections to get him in that he was able to barely go to school.
Chen Hongjiao listened to everything her mother-in-law said. She looked at Liang Rui coldly and said sarcastically, "How come anyone can get through the gate of No. 1 Middle School now?"
Liang Rui's expression changed immediately.
Jiang Meishu held him down and said calmly, "Yeah, the threshold for No. 1 Middle School is so low, how come some idiots can't even get in?"
"you!"
Chen Hong trembled coquettishly and pointed at Jiang Meishu.
Jiang Meishu, "A good dog doesn't block the road."
"Let's go Liang Rui, don't listen to the dog barking!"
