Xie Zhengyang came to Su Li's house happily that day. The weather was cold, so Su Li, Xie Qi, and Li Ruiying were playing with the children in the room.
"Third brother's wife, come with me to the threshing ground. I'm going to slaughter pigs today. You can pick the two pigs and one sheep you asked for and keep them first. I'll ask the butcher to slaughter the pigs and send them to you later."
Su Li looked at Xie Zhengyang's excited face and knew that he had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
"Second brother, I don't need to go. Just keep it for me. How can I not trust you?"
Xie Zhengyang also came over to say something. His wife had said before that his sister-in-law would definitely not come, so it was reasonable for them to say something.
After receiving the letter, Xie Zhengyang said, "Okay, sister-in-law, I'll drive the pigs to the wheat field first. Many people are waiting to buy pork."
Xie Zhengyang said as he turned to leave.
"Wait a minute, second brother."
"Anything else?"
Su Li said, "Brother, if you still have a lot of pigs after the New Year, you can sell them to the county meat processing plant. Their price is higher than what we offer in the village. It's better to buy a piece of land and build a large pig farm."
Xie Zhengyang has raised a lot of pigs. He now farms and raises pigs at the same time. His wife also has shares in a garment factory, and his family lives a happy life.
Now the third son's wife actually asked him to run a large pig farm. To be honest, he was shocked.
"Ah~ I...can I do it?"
Xie Qi looked at his second son's silly look and said angrily, "Why not? Your eldest brother is a fruit tree farmer and a cannery owner. Didn't he do it all? You are raising pigs and you are afraid of this and that. If you can do it all and ask your father to help you, won't it be fine? What is there to worry about?"
"Yes, second brother, you have learned a lot this year and read a lot of books. I believe you have your own way of raising pigs. Just look at how well you raise the piglets in the pigpen and you will know whether you can succeed. Otherwise, you can discuss it with second sister-in-law first."
Xie Zhengyang was a little confused. "Well, well, let's discuss it first. I'll go drive the pigs to the threshing ground first."
"Second brother, go and get busy first!"
After Xie Zhengyang returned home, he and Xia Xiuzhi's elder brother Xia Yong drove the pigs to the threshing ground.
Except for the ones that were bitten, he left two for Su Li, and he kept one for himself, killed it and ate it, and sold the rest.
The total amount was more than 3,100 yuan. Xie Zhengyang gave 500 yuan to Xia Yong on the spot.
"Why is it so much, Zhengyang? I didn't help you at all, how can you give me so much money? Take it."
Xie Zhengyang had already thought about Su Li's words when he drove the pigs here. After looking at the money he would get after selling the pigs, was there any need to think about it? The pig farm must be capable!
"Not much, brother. You've worked hard here. You've walked several miles from your village to ours. I know it well."
"What's the hardship? It's not that hard for an old farmer like me to walk. I came here to learn how to raise pigs from you. You didn't hide anything and taught me everything. It's fine if you give me some money, but how can you give me so much? I can't take it."
Xie Zhengyang held Xia Yong's hand and said, "How about this, big brother? Here is a slaughtered pig. You take 30 kilograms of meat and give half to my father-in-law and the other half to your family. If you think I'm giving you too much, you can give my father-in-law a dollar so that my father-in-law and his wife can have a good New Year too."
"You don't have to tell me. I have to respect them, too. Why should I ask you to pay for it?"
"Brother, we are a family, don't say that. I am thinking of getting a piece of land to build a pig farm next year, and then selling the pigs to the county meat processing plant. Do you want to join me?"
Xia Yong stared at Xie Zhengyang with his small eyes and said, "Build...build what?"
"A pig farm? Not really. I also want to raise some sheep. Big brother, our third son's wife is a capable person. She can help me find pig feed. They will grow fat if they have enough food. If you do it yourself, you will have to spend a lot of money to buy pig feed. If the pigs get sick, you will have to find a veterinarian or something. Let's do it together and share the money we make."
Xia Yong was not stupid. He could earn a little money by raising his own children, but it was obvious that his brother-in-law wanted to help him make a lot of money. Think about his younger brother Xia Zhi, who was now studying carpentry in the county town with a master.
The wife he is going to marry in the future is the boss's niece. I heard that he will be in charge of the furniture factory in the future. How can I not be envious? Who doesn't want to live a better life?
His wife and children have been with him through so many years of poverty. If he had the chance to make a lot of money, how could he let them go? "Yes, of course, Zhengyang, you think highly of me. I'm willing to work for you!"
"Let's not talk about that, big brother. Let's take the pork first and raise the pigs for next year. Let's have a good New Year this year and have a good year next year."
"Yes, I'll do it next year."
The two men talked while pulling the cart. A slaughtered pig and Yang were delivered to Su Li's home, and another slaughtered pig was delivered to Sujiaba as Su Li requested.
Su Li had already prepared the New Year gifts, including clothes, fabrics, rice, flour, grain, oil, fruit, wine and tea, and was just waiting for Li Ruiying to go to Sujiaba and have Xie Zhengchuan drive a truck to deliver them.
Jingyu and the other two were still young, and the weather was cold, so Li Ruiying didn't let them move around, for fear that they would catch a cold. However, Li Dan and the others really wanted to go to their grandmother's house with them, and Li Ruiying didn't refuse. She was so happy that the children wanted to be close to her when they grew up.
So before officially hibernating, Li Ruiying went to Sujiaba with a lot of bags. At noon, Xie Zhengchuan and the children stayed for lunch, and then went to Shanghe Village in the afternoon.
The garment factory will be closed for the holiday after finishing the last batch of orders in the next two days. Some people want to go back to their hometown to celebrate the New Year, and the roads will be difficult to travel if they are any later.
After working hard for a year, Su Li saw that the performance was very good when she checked the accounts. The textile factory in the provincial capital was under her personal name and had nothing to do with Pan Yumei and Xia Xiuzhi, so the money from Mengli Garment Factory was not used.
After the accounts were settled and the working capital was released, there was 78,000 yuan in the account that could be used to pay salaries and dividends.
Including overtime pay and bonuses, ordinary workers received a salary of RMB 1.50 each, and team leaders received an extra 10 yuan. Su Li, Pang Wei and Lu Shengnian spent a day sealing envelopes.
The New Year gifts were one month’s extra salary for each person, so the factory decided not to buy any.
All in all, I spent nearly ten thousand yuan.
Su Li also held an annual meeting. When she went to give Yang Meiling a wedding gift, she said that she would prepare sewing machines, bicycles and watches as prizes for the workers in the factory. She did prepare these three things and let them draw lots. Whoever won would get the one. If someone from outside the area won the one, he would just give an industrial ticket and the corresponding money.
After the lively annual meeting, everyone was extremely happy. The normal salary was already high enough, and it would be almost three hundred thousand yuan by the end of the year. Who wouldn’t be happy?
After the annual meeting, Su Li's money was distributed as dividends. Su Li himself received 33,000 yuan in dividends, while Pan Yumei and Xia Xiuzhi each received 13,200 yuan.
Wang Hong received a dividend of RMB 1,000.
After the shop closed, they began to have holidays and prepare for the Chinese New Year. However, Wu Yanhong got to know from nowhere that Wang Hong had shared the profits of the garment factory. She was very angry. The Wu family and Su Huai complained for a long time, thinking that Su Li treated her as an outsider, even worse than an outsider.
Su Huai didn't know how his wife became like this, and he had a headache.
The cannery made a lot of money during the Chinese New Year. Although it is not yet profitable, orders are slowly increasing.
Every family is looking forward to developing in a better direction.
