From Cultivator to Widow - Chapter 115
There are now dozens of employees in the sauce factory, who belong to different departments.
The first is the purchasing department, which purchases raw materials, packaging materials and so on.
After purchasing, it is cleaning, washing what should be washed, and drying it.
Then the first step, the second step, the third step… After the machine enters the bottle, the workers label, pack, put into the box, inspect, check the order, and finally deliver the goods.
They have seen the sanitation here, the floor is very clean, they have to take care of hygiene every day to and from get off work, and they have to wear gloves, hair caps and special clothes when they come into contact with ingredients.
Pay attention to surprise them.
Su An: “What I make is something that can make people feel at ease. Some people don’t pay attention to hygiene in order to save costs, but it is easy to mix in unclean things. It’s good to say that adults have strong immunity. If the elderly and children know It’s easy to get sick, and I can minimize that from happening.”
After listening to her words, Tang Keping and his party nodded silently, and secretly wrote down this brand, and bought sauce in the future. If you see this brand, you should choose this one first.
Accompanied by Su Hui, the workers cooperated with what they wanted to ask.
They asked in detail about working hours and benefits.
The working hours vary from eight to ten hours depending on the department they belong to, and there are one to six days off each month.
For rest days, many people don’t want to rest at all, just want to make money.
In terms of welfare, they have three meals a day here, and there are staff dormitories to live in. As long as they don’t buy other things, they can save all their monthly income.
Meals in the canteen are average, with occasional snacks…
Tang Keping was very satisfied, and then Zhang Weiguo was given a day off to give him time to spend with his mother.
Su Zhong bought land and built a facade in the provincial capital, and spent seven to eighty-eight of the money in his hand. For the follow-up, he could only continue to set up a stall to sell clothes, and he had to earn a little more, otherwise he would not even have much capital.
The house went well.
A facade house was built near the street. The original earth wall was also knocked down and replaced with blue bricks. The door was opened in another direction.
This facade room is divided into two small rooms, and the two small rooms also have partitions, which can store some goods.
Because there is a house here, he doesn’t go to other places to set up stalls, and only goes back and forth between the special zone and the provincial capital.
In this way, he can see the progress after he has sold his clothes here.
Although his younger sister was watching for help, he felt more at ease and more motivated to make money when he saw it with his own eyes.
Watching his house take shape little by little, I feel a great sense of accomplishment. Seeing that I still have some money in my hand, he has two more rooms next to the one in the back, so that when the mother-in-law and parents come over, they will have a place to live. .
The clothes he brought this time are almost sold, and he thinks about changing the place next time. He comes here often, and the people nearby have almost bought everything they want to buy. Maybe the business will be better if he goes to another place to have a look.
There are still a few pieces in his hand that have not been sold. Two of them are cracked with a small gap, and one is dirty. He didn’t notice it. The other is a problem of yardage. , I got a few pieces with a particularly large yardage.
He came to the place he bought, saw that they were busy, patrolled around, bought some drinks to send to them, and rewarded them for their hard work.
With Xiaoen and Xiaohui in front, they will work more actively and diligently.
Soon his facade will be ready, and the house in the back is not so fast, but it’s not too far away, he hasn’t told his parents and the others, how should he speak? For the sake of this industry, his dad shouldn’t treat him like that, right?
He didn’t stay long, the stock was gone, and he had to restock.
On the train, she succeeded in selling those few clothes with the wrong size and slight flaws at a low price.
When he got to the special zone, he got off the train and went to Su Hui’s small house, where he had the key.
When he arrived, Su An was there, and his nephew was also there.
“Uncle!” Zhang Weiguo saw a smile on his face: “You’re back, just in time, we can meet again, long time no see.”
After the investigation was over, he would also leave and go back to the capital. It was a coincidence that he could see his uncle before he left.
Tomorrow is his day off.
Su Zhong was also very surprised to see him: “Wei Guo, you have grown taller!” Su Zhong was very pleased to see his size. He was not short, but Zhang Weiguo was taller than him, and he can still grow now.
Zhang Weiguo smiled proudly: “That is, I can see my height in school, but my eldest brother is taller, he is 188.”
He is still a few centimeters away.
Su Zhong laughed: “Good job, come on too! Why are you here now, don’t you still have to go to school?”
Zhang Weiguo: “I came here to do research with my teachers and classmates.”
“Research? Is this also a way for you to study in class?” Su Zhong didn’t understand.
Zhang Weiguo thought for a moment: “For us students, it is indeed a way of learning.”
Su Zhong: “Then you have to study hard and not slack off. Are you staying here tonight? Where are your teachers and classmates?”
Zhang Weiguo: “They are staying at the hotel.”
Su Zhong was a little worried: “Will they have any opinion on you like this?”
It’s not good to be unique.
Zhang Weiguo laughed, he knew that his uncle was worried about him: “No, no, they know.”
“By the way, uncle, I will have a day off tomorrow. Uncle, where are you going tomorrow? Let’s have a good meal together. I’ll cook and give you a taste of the craft I learned in the capital.”
After hearing what he said, Su Zhong also forgot what he wanted to ask next, and laughed: “Okay, uncle is waiting to taste your craftsmanship and see how much progress you have made.”
It’s not that he can’t make time now, or he’s making less money by one day.
Su An opened the refrigerator and asked Su Zhong, “Would you like something to eat? There are dumplings in the refrigerator, or for you? Vermicelli?”
When it comes to food, Su Zhong really wants to eat something hot: “If you have dumplings, cook me some dumplings.”
He looked at his wrinkled clothes: “I’ll take a shower first, and we’ll talk later.”
Zhang Weiguo nodded: “Uncle, go, you are tired from the train.”
Even the most comfortable sleeper is tiring.
According to his understanding of his uncle, it is impossible for his uncle to buy a sleeper ticket, and he won’t go if he buys it. It is too expensive. He either stands or sits back.
Indeed, because there are many places where building a house costs money, Su Zhong bought a standing ticket and came back all the way. He brought a small stool and sat down when there was a space.
There was also hot water at this time, and Su An and the others hadn’t taken a bath yet.
He took a shower, changed into comfortable clothes, and came back. The dumplings were already cooked and placed in front of the dining table.
No trouble, just boil the water directly, put the dumplings in, and then add the seasoning and green onions.
It doesn’t take much effort and the taste is not bad.
Su Zhong took a few sips of soup first: “Wei Guo, how long are you going to stay here?”
Zhang Weiguo: “Not necessarily, the itinerary is decided by the teacher, and I won’t leave until it’s over.”
“How about you, uncle?”
“Me, I’ll run back and forth on both sides, take a day off tomorrow, and I’ll set off after I get the goods.”
Zhang Weiguo nodded: “Uncle, how is the progress of your house over there now? Can it be built so quickly? I’ll go take a look when I have a chance.”
Speaking of this, Su Zhong felt a little embarrassed: “It’s nothing to see, it’s just an ordinary one-story house, planned to be a storefront, with a yard at the back and a house, I’m also having people build it now, and I can take your grandfather in the future. They’ll take it over, it’s coming soon, and it’s estimated that they will be able to finish work in more than half a month.”
Speaking of this, he scratched his head and looked at his sister: “I haven’t figured out how to tell them about this.”
As soon as he heard this, Zhang Weiguo understood that his uncle was hiding it from his family.
“Uncle, will you go back during the New Year? You can tell them during the New Year.”
Su Zhong: “It’s easy for you to say, the question is how to say it?” He sighed: “I wonder if your grandfather will be angry with me.”
Zhang Weiguo felt that uncle was a little too worried: “What’s wrong with this, uncle, you have an estate in the provincial capital, and grandpa will be happy and proud of you.”
What is the proud cough, Su Zhong is a little embarrassed.
Compared with his sister, he really doesn’t have the capital to be proud of.
“…I’m just hiding this from my family and substituting it. If my son suddenly buys a house in the city over his university without making a sound, I’ll be in a hurry.”
He brought in like this, Zhang Weiguo didn’t know what to say for a while, and then he returned to the topic: “Uncle, you can’t just think like this, you have to think about it, your cousin bought a house there, aren’t you happy? You may be anxious at first, but you will be proud later, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
With his comfort, the look on Su Zhong’s face became better: “Maybe.”
Immediately he shook his head: “Let’s take a look later.” Procrastinate as long as you can.
“Get the house on the right track first. If there are achievements, your grandfather and the others will not be too angry. Do you have any place you want to go tomorrow?”
“Yes, yes, yes!” Zhang Weiguo responded immediately, “I want to go to the beach for a walk.”
Although they are in the same province, their hometown is not close to the sea. They went to the capital to go to university and changed their place, and it is not a city on the coastline.
He has yet to play on the shoreline.
“I heard them say there’s a lot of shells on the coast, and crabs and stuff, is that true?”
Su Zhong had been there, and he thought about it: “This is not necessarily, it depends on the area. Some areas only have sand and rocks. Do you want to eat fish? I know there is a place, there is a wharf, When someone comes back from the sea, they will sell it there when they have a harvest. It is fresh and the price is not expensive.
If you want shells, there are also there, you can pick up a few good-looking ones. “
Zhang Weiguo looked at Su An and asked for her mother’s approval: “Mom, are you free tomorrow? How about we go to the beach together?”
Su An nodded: “Okay.”
It was rare for him to come here once, and his teacher gave him a vacation. She was so busy that she couldn’t spare a few days. If that was the case, it would undoubtedly mean that she failed.
“Let’s go to the beach first, buy materials and come back, you can show your skills, are you confident?”
Zhang Weiguo: “No problem!”
I haven’t been to the seaside, and I haven’t eaten less seafood.
…
Not only did they walk around the beach, Su An also rented a boat, and the owner of the boat took them to the sea.
Zhang Weiguo and Su Zhong both tried fishing nets to see if they could catch fish. Su Zhong threw the net three times and only caught two and a half large sea fish. Zhang Weiguo was better. When it was Su Hui’s turn, she hit the net with a particularly precise force. There were more than 20 hits on the net.
The owner of this boat is an old fisherman who often goes out to sea, and she also says she is lucky.
This boat is owned by a husband and wife who often go out to sea together. There are not so many taboos. In many places, women are not allowed to board the boat, saying that it will bring bad luck.
It was only after seeing the couple on the boat that Su An asked them if it was inconvenient to take a few of them out to sea. After hearing what she was willing to pay, they readily agreed.
Let Zhang Weiguo and Su Zhong have a good time.
On the way back, Zhang Weiguo went to the sea for a few laps, and he came up very quickly. He accidentally took a sip of seawater, that taste.
They went back and picked up a few shells and conch shells on the beach as souvenirs, took the big fish that were just caught by the net, and bought a lot of other fresh seafood on the pier, and they returned with a full reward.
Seafood is very simple to make, and Zhang Weiguo, who is complicated, can’t.
Not steamed, is braised, fried.
Most steamed.
Original.
…
Zhang Weiguo is on vacation, and Tang Keping is not the kind of person who is particularly strict. He gave everyone a day off. They have been busy for so long, and they should rest.
Most people didn’t stay in the hotel obediently, but went out in twos and threes. It’s different from the time of the research, when everyone remembers things in their hearts, now they can slow down and observe slowly and carefully. The situation on the roadside, when you see any food on the roadside, you will stop naturally. When you see this pancake fruit, it is very fragrant. Buy one and try it. This fruit skewer looks fresh. , yes, here are two…
They basically come back with their stomachs. Most of these are not expensive, and even students who are shy in their pockets, with subsidies, can also eat well.
In addition to food, there are all kinds of “specialties”.
For example, watches, there are many kinds of watches to buy here, the price is cheap, no tickets are needed, you can choose!
In the capital, most things in supply and marketing cooperatives require tickets.
This kind of industrial product ticket is not easy to obtain, and one may not be issued a year.
After a day’s rest, Su Zhong quickly got on the train again. He wanted to continue to make money and support the stall of his clothing store.
Zhang Weiguo also returned to the research team, and continued to go around here with the teacher.
During this period, Zhang Weiguo accidentally saw Wang Haiwen and Auntie Wang coming to find Teacher Tang, and he didn’t know what to say.
He mentioned to Su An, Su An nodded and said that she knew, so she didn’t care.
If there is anything that needs her help, she will say it directly.
Zhang Weiguo bought a lot of things here, all of which are gadgets. There are a lot of small commodities here, and the prices are not expensive and very attractive.
He plans to take it back to the capital to give to his classmates and friends as souvenirs.
After collecting enough data, they plan to return to the capital.
At that time, Su Zhong was not there, and Su An was there, but he didn’t send it. There were so many of them, and they were all so old, so she didn’t need to send them off.
She prepared some food in advance for him to take back. The large and small bags would not be too conspicuous among the teachers and classmates, because even his two teachers couldn’t help buying a lot here. stuff, wrapped bulging.
Yan Lu bought an imported refrigerator, and some bought a tape recorder. Don’t laugh at anyone.
It is rare to come here once. There are some things here that are really rare in the capital, or not at all. Not only are there rich varieties, but the supply of goods is relatively more abundant, and the price is suitable. If you don’t buy them, you will always feel at a loss.
During Zhang Weiguo’s research, Su An had a phone call with the capital. Zhang Anguo and Zhang Dingguo were very envious of the second brother. The second brother could follow the teacher and the others to their mother’s place.
so good.
They also want to see their mother’s factory and see the houses there.
They also hadn’t seen their mother for a while, and she said she only came back years ago.
After careful calculation, it won’t be too long, but my mother won’t stay here for too long. The year has passed, and my mother is going back to the south again. However, after this year, the eldest and second brothers are I don’t know where they will be assigned for internships. My mother may stay for a while longer, and she will leave after understanding their assignments.
Zhang Baoguo received a letter from Liu Weizhi at this time. Zhang Baoguo took the college entrance examination for the second time, and was admitted to the top military academy with his excellent grades, but Liu Weizhi did not expect the college entrance examination at all, and all the knowledge he had learned was returned to him. The teacher, but he also knew that it would be good for him to learn more.
Learn as much as possible.
If there are any lectures or knowledge conferences to be held in the army, as long as I have time, I will never fall behind, and I have learned a lot of useful things.
This one, Zhang Baoguo, was absorbing all kinds of knowledge like a sponge in the school. Liu Weizhi had already been on the battlefield. Sometimes it was inconvenient to communicate, and he would cut off contact with Zhang Baoguo for a long time.
This time, he wrote a letter to Zhang Baoguo. It was half a year after the last time. The letter did not mention why it took so long to reply. He knew that Zhang Baoguo could understand.
In the letter, Rory was as wordy as usual, but this time, the letter contained some information similar to last words in Zhang Baoguo’s opinion, saying that when a soldier has consciousness, if he is unfortunate, he will help him at that time. Taking care of his family, his parents only have one son. If he is gone, his parents will definitely be very sad.
He was still mourning in the letter. When he went back last time, he refused to see his wife. Now he has some regrets. He didn’t marry a daughter-in-law and have a child earlier. , When Zhang Weiguo read the letter, his hand tightened again and again.
What dangerous mission is he going on?
Or go to the battlefield?
They have been having a local conflict with a certain country in the south for the past two years. He didn’t go there because he hasn’t graduated yet, but he has simulated in his mind more than once how he would respond if he went there.
At present, only this can be called a war, and the other borders are also somewhat troublesome, but those can only be called conflicts.
Soon, he will soon graduate from the internship.
After a long silence, Zhang Baoguo replied to him.
He seriously wrote in the letter that if he had an emergency, he would walk around with his uncles and aunts as his own uncles to reassure him.
However, no matter how he takes care of him, his own son will not be able to take care of him properly. The most important thing is that he takes care of himself.
Thinking about it carefully, apart from the friends I met in college and my hometown, there is only Liu Weizhi who is still in contact. They are all soldiers in the army, and they have a lot of topics to talk about, so they won’t be out of touch. Now, I don’t even know what to chat with my childhood friends, about the crops in the fields? daughter in law? child? Or is it short for parents?
He is not interested in any of these.
If Liu Weizhi had an emergency, he would definitely do his part. They were from the same town, and their home was so close.
He thought of his father. After the accident, his father was thanks to his comrades in arms and the help of other people in the army, such as Uncle Sun Qiang, Uncle Guan Shaoli, and Uncle Zhang Chengye. Besides them, There is also my father’s former boss, the comrade-in-arms where he was on the mission. They are far away, and they have always communicated with each other. Now they still communicate, only one or two letters a year, and the communication is not frequent, but they can know about themselves. They didn’t write much in the letter, but the words of concern could be read between the lines, because he was the only one in the family who joined the army, and his father’s correspondence with colleagues and friends is now handed over to him. In fact, this is also a network of contacts.
Thinking of this, Zhang Baoguo sighed. He really didn’t hope that one day he would do the same thing as Uncle Sun Qiang and help take care of his comrades’ family.
However, it may be reversed, and he is also very likely to have an accident. He thought about it, if an accident occurs, the family will be sad, but fortunately he has no daughter-in-law and children. If his mother, there are three younger brothers, they will not If his mother was wronged, he could be considered free of worries and could go to the battlefield with confidence.
He didn’t want to die. If he could live longer and better, he didn’t want to leave this world just like that, but the battlefield was never inseparable from bloodshed and sacrifice.
Liu Weizhi is much worse than him in this respect. He is an only son and has no other siblings. If something goes wrong…
Thinking of this, he stood up and went to the training ground. Now that he sweats a little more, he can save a drop of blood on the battlefield. At a critical moment, the instinct he has trained can save lives.
…
Zhang Weiguo and the others returned to the capital, and Zhang Quan also mentioned that he met Zhang Weiguo here, and mentioned in the letter that he met him, and he followed the teacher to do research here. Now he has gone back, he is now a long So big.
It’s a pity for Zhang Quan, he can’t spare time to go home, his brothers have not gone back for two years, their parents should miss them, but it doesn’t matter, they will graduate soon, and they can be assigned after graduation. At work, Zhang Quan thought of his son. His son’s college was not as good as his second brother’s, but compared to other people who couldn’t pass the test at all, he was already very good, and he could be called a leader.
And he was also assigned a package. That job was different from his own. It wasn’t like they were unstable. After finishing one, he didn’t know where the next one would live, what to do, and what the salary would be like.
Zhang Quan was overjoyed at the thought of his son.
Zhang Gui also met Zhang Weiguo once, and didn’t say much. Zhang Gui was busy going to work, and Zhang Weiguo was also busy. He said a few words in a hurry and then said goodbye.
Zhang Weiguo also wrote a letter to his grandfather and bought some things to send.
Zhang Chengye also received it. He smiled when he got the package, and when he saw the letter, he sighed when he saw it.
Liu Yanxin, this matter has to be resolved in the end, but since everyone has left, even if they can get compensation, the damage will be done.
He pondered for a while, then went out to find someone.
Their Zhang family’s daughter can’t be bullied just like that, and both compensation and lessons are indispensable.
…
Zhang Weiguo and the others returned to the capital. They went back to their respective homes. After working hard for so long, tomorrow is another day off. Everyone should rest and recover.
This time, they got a lot.
There is no doubt that the establishment of the special zone is right in the general direction. The vitality and development brought by it surprised them. In comparison, the small changes in the capital are easy to make people feel conservative.
After their break, they have to write a report based on the research. Zhang Weiguo already has a draft in his heart. Now he has a place where he wants to apply for an internship. If his report is accepted by the teacher, it should help him achieve Target.
He can’t wait for the internship now.
Su An was also a little impatient, and finally finished the formalities. The little blessed land she was looking for was in her name, how should she arrange it?
