The next day.
Xie Zhenghe came to find Su Li and Xie Zhengchuan early in the morning and told them that he and Pan Yumei had discussed it all night. Pan Yumei also meant that since there was such an opportunity and Su Li was helping, they should just do it. At worst they could just go home and farm.
Su Li and Xie Zhengchuan actually knew that Xie Zhenghe would agree.
"Then big brother, since big sister-in-law is also willing, let's get started!"
Xie Zhenghe thought about it and asked the question he wanted to ask.
"Third brother, sister-in-law, I have a few questions to ask. First, I have taken over two hills in the village. Although the fruit trees have been planted, such large hills still need people to take care of them. Secondly, there is a brick kiln factory to be built in the village. If we start a canning factory, will it be too big? I really want to do it, but I am afraid I can't manage it."
Su Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, big brother. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Our village has been a little bit poor in the past few days. We can only solve the basic problem of food and clothing. Some families are still eating sweet potato leaves and steamed buns. If you build all the factories, there will be more job opportunities for them. Not only our village, but also the neighboring villages can come to work. This will help a lot of people. Besides, big brother, don't worry about not being able to manage it. There are many capable people. Can't you use them?"
"Yes! Big brother, what Xiaoli said is right. It's the same as in our bureau. When there is a case, we can investigate it together, but we have to look for clues separately. If they are capable and do a good job, you can relax a little. You have to learn to use people and also learn to let go of power. It will be very tiring to hold everything in your hands."
Xie Zhenghe listened to Xie Zhengchuan and Su Li's words, and suddenly he was enlightened. He made this mistake. He was always worried about what others did, and he did many things by himself. It was really tiring. Are there no capable people in the village? No, many of them are very capable, but he just doesn't know how to use them. After figuring out this trick, Xie Zhenghe felt much more relaxed.
"Okay, I understand. Am I narrow-minded, or are you two more insightful?"
Xie Zhengchuan smiled and said, "Brother, if I have nothing to do at noon today, I'll go around the county town to see if there is a suitable place to set up a factory."
Su Li put down the apron in her hand.
"It's okay for my eldest brother to want to open a canning factory. I'm going to the county town today to find my youngest brother and ask him what he thinks."
Xie Zhengchuan smiled and said, "Shall we go together?"
"Let's go together!"
Seeing that it was getting late, Xie Zhenghe stood up and said goodbye. "Okay, you guys go ahead and do your business. I'm also thinking about the canning factory. As for the Murakami brick kiln factory, I'll go see where there's clay."
"T."
It was the first time for Xie Zhengchuan to ride a bicycle to the county town with Su Li. He didn't know why he had a different feeling in his heart and kept wanting to laugh. After a while, he looked at the woman riding a bicycle side by side with him, and he couldn't stop feeling happy.
In fact, ever since Su Li started working in the garment factory, they had spent much less time together. Also, his job was special, so he couldn't help but always neglect her, which made him feel guilty towards Su Li.
Su Li didn't know what Xie Zhengchuan felt. She was thinking about how to convince Su Huai to give up his current job and run the factory with Xie Zhenghe. If he was unwilling, she could only let her third brother Suzhou and fourth brother Su Lie do it. They were also capable and had both attended junior high school. After helping Su Li to get the factory almost done, they returned to Sujiaba. They also rented the land.
Su Li was not disregarding her natal family. She originally wanted to let her natal family members prepare the food, but she wanted them to do it tomorrow. Li Ruiying stopped her, fearing that the people in Sujiaba would become jealous. If something went wrong, she put the plan on hold.
After leaving the county town, the two separated. Su Li first visited a store to check the sales situation.
Wang Hong was cleaning the doors and windows with Su Lan and Su Fang.
"Ouch! The boss is coming," Wang Hong said as she put the rag aside.
"Have you had breakfast? We have hot sweet potato porridge, vegetable dumplings, and pickled vegetables on the stove."
Su Lan and Su Fang also greeted him, but they did not stop their movements.
"Aunt."
Su Li put down the cloth bag in her hand, "Hey, I've eaten Sister Wang, how are the clothes in the store selling well during this period?"
When this was mentioned, Wang Hong became excited. "Yes, of course. Our autumn and early winter clothes are selling very fast. I thought that men's clothes would not sell much, but as soon as they were put up, several pieces were sold. The styles are unique. Every woman is willing to buy one for her man. Besides, our quality is excellent."
Su Li looked through the account book and found that the sales were indeed very good. There were also some clothes kept in the tailor shop, which were also selling well.
"Okay, Sister Wang, the business is so prosperous, and it's all thanks to your contribution. Your bonus is not small, and there's also a small dividend. Sister Wang, just wait to make a fortune secretly!"
Su Li knew that Wang Hong always told others that she only earned 30 yuan a month, and her sister-in-law even came to her house to thank her for this. After all, she took the job from Wang Hong, and she would have to keep in touch with her brother and sister-in-law in the future.
Wang Hong pretended to cry poor and the conflicts in the family disappeared. It was just that Wang Hong kept some things in mind. Anyway, she would have money in the future and no one could bother her.
Su Lan and Su Fang also started laughing when they heard Su Li say this.
Su Lan has already told her family about Su Li's arrangement, which allows her to go to the provincial capital with Pang Wei. The whole family is very happy about this, as it means that Su Lan will not only be a city dweller, but also a person from a big city.
Liu Shuying thought about all the hardships she had endured, and was extremely excited to see her two daughters now being so successful following their sister-in-law. Her son Su An was also doing well, and now he was in junior high school with good grades. Liu Shuying was now hoping that her son could be admitted to high school. Once her two daughters got married, she no longer had any big concerns.
Su Fang was not jealous at all that her sister could go to the provincial capital. She knew that she still had a lot to learn and she was still young. Her will also needed to be tempered. The furniture factory would open soon and she had so many things to do that she had no time to think about anything else.
Su Li stayed for a while and then went to the second store. The second store was also open. Wu Yanhong was standing behind the counter drinking tea from an enamel cup, and two young female clerks were cleaning the windows.
Su Li paused when she saw it, then walked in pretending nothing happened.
When Wu Yanhong saw Su Li coming, she quickly put down the cup in her hand and poured Su Li a cup of hot water with a few red dates in it.
"Sister, now you're here, drink some hot water to warm yourself up." For some reason, Su Li couldn't resist Wu Yanhong's enthusiasm.
I always feel like something is different.
"Fifth sister-in-law, is everything in the store okay?"
Wu Yanhong smiled and said, "Oh, it's so much. Oh, there are so many people buying clothes every day. Look, I asked Xiaowan to remember the account book clearly."
Xiaowan and Chunxue are two clerks in the second store. Xiaowan only studied in junior high school and had good grades, but her family was poor and she could not afford to go to school. Originally, she didn't know what to do. Fortunately, she was introduced here by Wang Hong. She has a basic salary of 25 yuan per month, and she also gets commissions for selling clothes, sometimes 30 to 50 yuan, and sometimes 70 to 80 yuan. She also gets gifts from time to time, and sometimes clothes. It's hard to find such a good job here.
Chunxue also went to junior high school, but she didn't finish it. She dropped out after the second year. However, she was a good talker and smart, and we sold the most clothes from her, sometimes making more than a hundred yuan a month.
So the two little girls were extremely grateful to their boss Su Li, and seeing her was like seeing a relative.
Wu Yanhong was talking to Su Li. As she was talking, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the counter and handed them to Su Li.
"Sister, eat some melon seeds to make your mouth fragrant."
Su Li looked at Wu Yanhong's expression and her smile froze for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses.
"Sister-in-law, you can keep it for yourself. But it's best not to eat it when guests come over, or they will find it embarrassing."
She finally realized that Wu Yanhong was different. She was wearing fashionable clothes from the store and her hair was curled. She was no longer the Wu Yanhong who used to hang around the stove and take care of the children, worrying about how to spend every penny.
Wu Yanhong felt a little embarrassed when she heard Su Li say that, but she didn't care in her heart. The business of her second store was booming, and people who came to buy clothes were very polite. They wanted to say a lot of nice things and asked her to give them a lower price. How could they have a problem with her eating melon seeds? However, Su Li was the boss and she was just an employee, so she didn't say anything.
Su Li sighed inwardly, "Fifth sister-in-law, it's almost noon, I just want to find my brother for something, let's go to the steel mill together, Xiaowan and Chunxue can just look after this."
Wu Yanhong stretched her head to glance at the large and small bags hanging on Su Li's bicycle, and immediately said with a smile: "Hey, you haven't seen Xiaogang and Xiaoya for a long time. It's time to meet your nephews and nieces."
