Lu Qin looked at the pile of documents that needed to be processed and leaned back in frustration.
"Ahhhh! I don't want to work!"
These are the cries of her heart.
Lu Qin didn't dare to complain out loud, mainly because she was the "boss" now!
Although it is an agent.
That bastard Qu Dongbo ran away, taking his sister-in-law with him...
No, he left with his trusted teammates.
Lu Qin was left in Antu County, under the pretext of being in charge of the daily government affairs of Antu County.
Lu Qin complained that he had agreed not to let her work, but in the end she was still the one working for him.
But no matter how much you complain, you still have to do your work.
Fortunately, the biggest task in Antu County at the moment is to arrange screening for the "cold wave virus" for the people and to trace the specific source of the "human flesh".
Everything else goes on as usual.
But Lu Qin does more than that every day.
The supply requests and problem solving from various departments were overwhelming her. For the first time, Lu Qin realized how much pressure Qu Dongbo was under.
…
"Knock knock knock." There was a knock on the door in the office.
This made Lu Qin, who was half lying on the chair and doing nothing, stand up, rub his swollen temples, and speak loudly.
These days, she was tortured by the almost constant knocking on the door, almost going insane and unable to sleep in the middle of the night.
In her dreams, someone knocks on the door and brings her a new incident for her to deal with.
She even felt numb.
"Hey, why is it you, Sister Yan?" Lu Qin was surprised.
The person who came was Xu Mingyan.
She hadn't seen Xu Mingyan for a long time.
He's a busy man, too. Ever since he opened a nursery and school at home, he's been constantly busy. It's rare to see him so relaxed.
"Hey, I'm just taking a break from my busy schedule." Xu Mingyan winked at Lu Qin. Looking at Lu Qin, who was sitting in Qu Dongbo's usual seat, still busy organizing documents, she suddenly said, "Xiaoqin, I think you're quite suitable for this job."
"Stop laughing at me! Qu Dongbo is forcing me into this!" Lu Qin waved her hands quickly.
"Oh, others haven't had this blessing yet." Xu Mingyan said with a smile: "Forget it, I won't waste your time. I know you've been busy these days. You must be exhausted. How about inviting Aunt Liang to our house for dinner tonight?"
"Forget it, Sister Yan, I still have so much to do. I don't know when I'll be done. Let's forget about eating so that Uncle Wu and the others don't have to wait. Besides, my mother is away from home all day lately and is very busy."
"It's good to be busy with your career! Women should be busy with their careers." Xu Mingyan smiled and said, "Don't rely on men, that's the real thing."
Xu Mingyan's school has been doing very well recently. Not only does it earn a lot of money, it is also very famous in the circle. Many people know about Xu Mingyan's school, and in order to get their children in, many of them are very polite to her family.
Therefore, Xu Mingyan's parents-in-law had nothing to complain about her. They almost treated her as their own daughter and praised our daughter-in-law to everyone about how capable she was.
Poor her, Brother Wu, has even less status at home now, and both her parents are on Xu Mingyan's side. So Xu Mingyan's life is very comfortable.
"By the way, Sister Yan, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to ask you, don't you have an unused fireplace at home? Can you sell it to me?"
fireplace?
Lu Qin thought about it and suddenly realized.
That's what it was. This was the item she'd gotten when she couldn't choose the delivery type for her Gold Finger. It was a large, built-in fireplace, quite bizarre.
Originally, she didn't want to bring it into reality, but supplies were scarce at the time, and Lu Qin was reluctant to throw anything away, so she moved it back home and told Liang Shuyu that she had picked it up outside.
This fireplace is huge, but it needs to be built in. Moreover, the daily consumption of charcoal is quite high.
Lu Qin's house is not big at the moment, and a heating stove is enough to provide heat. He doesn't need it, so it has been left idle.
"What do you want that for?"
"Oh, isn't our school getting more and more crowded? Well, my house can't accommodate them anymore, and the villa I rented isn't enough either. I was thinking of renting a factory in the southeast corner." Xu Mingyan gestured, "You know, behind the cafeteria, there used to be a quilt-making factory there, but unfortunately, most of it collapsed. I had someone renovate it and plan to use it as a new school. It just so happens that you have this thing. If you install it in the school hall, wouldn't it be much easier to keep warm?"
When Lu Qin heard this, she thought it was a great idea. This huge fireplace was perfect for a place like the school that needed a spacious space.
So she nodded and said, "Alright, just take it. Why do you need to ask me? Just go find my mom and ask her to help you move it."
Xu Mingyan shook her head and said, "How can I take it for free? Let's calculate it according to the market price. I will give it to you later."
"Hey, do we still need to worry about so much between us?"
"That won't do. Even sisters have to settle accounts clearly. Besides, this is for public use, not something I need for my family. Just take it." Xu Mingyan said seriously.
"Oh, all right."
Lu Qin didn't refuse and nodded in agreement.
"There are so many weird things in your house. I don't know where you collected them from. You run outside all day long. Don't bring home everything you see!" Xu Mingyan complained.
Lu Qin is like a little hamster. Whenever he sees anything useful, he wants to collect it, for fear that he may need it one day.
Xu Mingyan also thought that this was something Lu Qin had found when he followed the large group to register people in Antu County.
Lu Qin was helpless.
She didn't want to either. Who knew what she would come up with then? It wasn't like now where she could control it and just take whatever was missing.
"How about this? You can open a grocery store in the market and put all your rags and rags there. Aunt Liang also works at the trading house, so opening a grocery store is not just a side job."
"Then why not just give it directly to the trading house?" Lu Qin said with a smile.
"Are you stupid? How can it be the same? It would be great to open a grocery store. You know that the prices of goods in official trading houses are kept low, and you can only trade one item at a time. Wouldn't more people come to your grocery store to buy things? Even if the tax rate is a little higher, it won't be a big deal." Xu Mingyan explained naggingly.
No wonder his school is so successful. He really has a good business sense.
Lu Qin thought about it and felt that this was a good suggestion.
Indeed, because official trading houses are afraid of people deliberately reselling goods, they have very high trading limits for each person and also have quantity requirements. If you want to engage in public trading, it is better to open your own store.
Lu Qin thought about it and realized that her family owned a grocery store, which could be considered as a kind of industry. She just happened to have all kinds of strange things, and now she could get all kinds of goods from the Golden Finger Warehouse every day. If she couldn't use them for her own use, it would be a good idea to open a grocery store and sell them to those in need.
Moreover, before Qu Dongbo left, the market was just about to start building a batch of new temporary simple houses as trading shops.
With her contributions, it shouldn't be too much for her to get a spot in a shop!
This cannot be considered as taking the back door.
Lu Qin thought about it with confidence and couldn't help but find himself funny again.
After the two of them decided to open a grocery store in a few words, Lu Qin said, "Okay, I understand. I'll rent one of the shops under construction in the market when they open in a few days."
Xu Mingyan waved her hand in praise, smiling like a fox, as if she was waiting for her here.
"That's great, how about I get involved too?"
Lu Qin looked at it, somewhat puzzled. "You want to buy a stake? Why? Do you have anything to sell?"
"Well, some parents can't afford food or anything like that, so they use other things from their homes to pay for tuition. I have a lot of jewelry and other things stored away. I feel bad not accepting them. Everyone is struggling, and it's not easy for children to go to school."
Xu Mingyan sighed.
It must be no easy task to open a school. It may look glorious on the surface and collect a lot of tuition fees, but there must be all kinds of problems and troubles behind the scenes.
"These things are useless at home. I thought it would be easier to run the school if I could exchange them for more food."
