Stepmother Reborn: Dad, my mom hasn't hit me for three days

Zhang Xiuhua waited from ten o'clock until twelve o'clock. When it was lunch time, all the workers in the factory went to eat.

The factory manager finally arrived and saw Zhang Xiuhua. He quickly apologized, "Sorry to have kept you waiting. The workshop is too busy. So many people are rushing to get the goods. I'm not a superhero, so I can only supervise from below."

At that time, the sugar factory was doing very well. And promotions were very fast. I heard that the factory manager who had signed a contract with her was promoted within less than a year.

This factory manager is probably in a similar situation. Only those with strength and background can be transferred to such a high-performance factory for training, and this is their springboard.

She smiled at him and said, "I'm a free person. You have something to do, so I'll be fine later. It's dinner time now, how about I treat you to a meal?!"

The factory manager declined several times, but finally agreed.

Zhang Xiuhua took him to the state-owned restaurant in the county. With his status, he disdained to eat in private restaurants because the decoration of private restaurants in the county at that time was not luxurious enough and could not meet the standards. They were not as grand as state-owned restaurants.

Zhang Xiuhua ordered a few of her signature dishes and also specifically asked for a bottle of Moutai.

The factory manager seemed satisfied. "I see your grocery store is doing pretty good business. It's squeezing out the supply and marketing cooperative next door."

"They are all vegetables grown by myself. The villagers ask me to transport them to the county to sell when they can't finish eating them. It's not safe to set up a stall at the door. So I opened a store. Don't be fooled by the good business. It's actually a small business. It's not like the sugar factory, which ships out truckloads of goods. That's very impressive." Zhang Xiuhua should not show off her wealth. Even if she really made money, she could not admit it in front of him, otherwise she would be like meat on the chopping board, at his mercy.

When the factory manager heard her say that she couldn't make any money, he looked skeptical, "Really? Your business is so good, you can easily make a hundred or eighty a day."

Zhang Xiuhua shook her head like a rattle, "Director, you really think too highly of me. A hundred or eighty? If it was really that profitable, I would have spread all over our county. We just grow our own vegetables, they are not worth much. If we go to the countryside to buy them, the profit is very thin. Look at the vegetable shops nearby, they are all husband-and-wife shops. They can't even afford to hire one employee. It's because they are middlemen, and I grow my own vegetables."

The factory manager hesitated for a moment and said, "It's like this. I have a son who also wants to learn how to do business and go to the south to make his fortune, but I'm worried. I noticed that your store is doing pretty well."

Zhang Xiuhua's heart skipped a beat. So they came to rob her shop? She complained about their shamelessness in her heart, but smiled on her face, "It's easy to open a shop. But selling vegetables is not suitable for him. He has to get up early at four or five in the morning and finish work at eight in the evening. If he wants to do business, I think he can open a barber shop. Just hire a barber, and there are no barber shops nearby. He is doing an exclusive business, which must be very good."

The factory manager was slightly startled, "But there is no store..."

He is the factory manager, and the only store he can use is Zhang Xiuhua's.

Zhang Xiuhua thought: Is he trying to get her to quit? That's impossible. She smiled and said, "Isn't it easy to build a store? Just build another house next to our store. Buy a few bricks and paint it. You are the factory manager, this should be easy to do!"

The factory manager thought that her shop was the only storefront in the factory. From the outside, it looked like a courtyard wall, but inside it was a parking lot. Of course, it was for bicycles, not cars.

If a house is built, where will the bicycle be parked?

Although the sugar factory is very profitable, the factory does not occupy a large area. Apart from the parking lot, there is no other open space in the factory.

"New hairstyles are popular in the south, including hair dyeing and perming. I heard that they are very profitable." Zhang Xiuhua actively gave him advice, "Selling vegetables is too hard, and the money earned is not as much as hairdressing."

The factory manager felt that this statement touched his heart. In fact, he had never thought that selling vegetables was profitable. After all, the price of vegetables was similar to that of the supply and marketing cooperative. The reason why the business was good was that the vegetables were grown by himself. If it was hairdressing, it would be a unique business, and there was no hair dyeing or perming in the entire county. It was feasible to do this business.

He smiled at her. "You're right. It's a nice haircut indeed."

Because Zhang Xiuhua had come up with this idea for him, he felt it was difficult to chase the other party away. After much thought, he decided that it would be better to build a new one. As for the bicycles, he let them park them at the door.

After eating and drinking, Zhang Xiuhua did not give out the red envelope, but asked for his home address, hinting that she would send him some fruit.

The factory manager understood what she meant, told her his home address and left.

Zhang Xiuhua returned to the store, took a basket, filled it with gala apples and blueberries, and some ready-made snacks, filling the basket to the brim.

She delivered the fruit basket to the factory director's address. The factory director's mother was at home, so the other party accepted it after some politeness.

When she got home, it was already very late. Zhang Xiuhua was extremely tired. She lay on the bed in a very ungraceful manner and told Li Jianguo what happened.

He used to get angry when he heard about this kind of thing, but now he reacts calmly, because this kind of extortion is still considered light, what is more excessive is to make things difficult for you, deliberately tear up the contract, and force you to move out.

Li Jianguo sighed, "You're right! We still have to have our own facade."

"There are no commercial houses in our county yet. We might as well buy one in the capital." Zhang Xiuhua asked him, "How much money do you have at home?"

Li Jianguo showed her the account book. He had spent a lot of money on buying animals and blueberries this year. The money he earned from the store had already bought the courtyard house. The money he had on hand included her salary, the money he earned from reselling, tea eggs and chicken eggs, and the money he earned from Gala fruit, blueberries and radishes.

The total amount was 8,300 yuan, and the bulk of it came from reselling.

Zhang Xiuhua propped her chin on her hand, "It's still a little too little. Let's wait a little longer."

"Don't worry, our family is much better than other families now. I bought a house for Youcai in the capital, if he wants to get married, he can get married there directly." Li Jianguo felt that she was a little anxious. Once an idea popped up in her mind, she had to realize it immediately, otherwise she would be very anxious. But he felt that it was really unnecessary.

Zhang Xiuhua nodded, "I know."

Li Jianguo told Zhang Xiuhua, "Big brother's Hongwu has already bought a house in Pengcheng."

Zhang Xiuhua asked him, "How many houses have you bought in the capital?"

"Two. One is the small shop rented by Jidong, and the other is a slightly larger courtyard house." Li Jianguo was just about to discuss this with her, "Here we give girls dowry in the form of money, not houses."

"Why give her money? By the time the couple lives together, all the money will be gone. It's better to give her a house as a dowry. If the man bullies our girl, we can move out and live alone. This is confidence." Zhang Xiuhua reminded him, "You already have two houses, just work hard to get another one. Zhuzhu is still young, don't rush."

Speaking of Zhuzhu, she suddenly remembered, "By the way, you didn't seem to include Zhuzhu's advertising fee just now?"

"The contract she signed with Ergou was 9% to % split. I deposited yuan for her for eight years." Li Jianguo scratched his head. "The interest rate is quite high. %."

At this time, the maximum term of the lump sum deposit is eight years, and the interest rate is indeed very high. However, Zhang Xiuhua knew how quickly money depreciated, so she asked him to take out the passbook, "I will use this money to buy her a house in the capital. I will put it in Zhuzhu's name. This is also her earned money, so it can be regarded as her fixed asset."

Li Jianguo felt a little pain, "Withdraw now? Two months' interest will be gone."

"It's okay." Zhang Xiuhua told him not to worry, "House prices will rise faster than savings. Look at the courtyard house we bought. It was only 30,000 or 40,000 yuan before, but now it has risen to 40,000 or 50,000 yuan."

The examples given by facts were particularly convincing. Li Jianguo agreed with her and handed the passbook to her.
