Chapter 293 How do you become a mother?
"Hurry, you guys hurry up and catch up."
"Hey, Brother Chang, this train station in Sijiu City is really big!"
"Well, it is the capital of our country, isn't it?"
"Hehe, from now on we will also be residents of this Forty-Nine City!"
"Yes, I have to marry a city girl in the future."
"Haha, Baokun, why don't you take a look at yourself in the mirror? Which girl in the city is blind enough to fall in love with you? I think you should just marry Cuihua from the next village!"
"Go away, I think you and Cuihua are a better match! In the future, I will definitely marry a wife who is ten thousand times prettier than Cuihua, and you bastards will be envious to death."
"Hey! Are you still trying to pick a fight with us?"
"Okay, stop arguing there and hurry up and catch up. If you get lost later, you will cry."
After hearing Ma Hongjun's words, Xu Yuchang, Sun Jinda and Ma Baokun dared not say anything and hurriedly followed with their large baskets.
Soon after, they walked out of the train station smoothly and came to the street outside.
At this time, it was just daybreak, and the tempting aroma of fried dough sticks blew in the cool breeze, making them swallow their saliva.
Then, when Xu Yuchang, Sun Jinda and others thought that Li Guoqiang would go buy some food to satisfy their cravings, Li Guoqiang directly called three waiters who were waiting for work nearby to come over, and then asked Xu Yuchang and others to load the big basket into the car.
Then, he immediately asked Ban Ye to pull the cart towards Xiangmi Zhai.
Fortunately, the railway station and Xiangmi Zhai are both located in Dongcheng District, and in the end, they only spent nearly two yuan to deliver more than a thousand kilograms of honey combs and nine adults to Xiangmi Zhai.
As soon as Xu Yuchang and others arrived at the store door, they surprised the customers waiting in line.
They didn't expect that people had already lined up to patronize the store just after dawn.
It seems that what Li Guoqiang said before was not nonsense. The business of Xiangmizhai is really unexpectedly good!
Then, they all felt a little excited.
Because the better Xiangmi Zhai's business is, the more benefits they will be able to get in the future, and they won't have to worry about having no place to live in the future.
Soon, Li Guoqiang asked Xu Yuchang and others to unload the big baskets, and then follow him to move the big baskets into the store.
As soon as he showed up, he was spotted by Shang Xiuzhen and others who were busy in the store, and they all showed excited expressions.
If there weren't other customers in the store who needed to be entertained, they would have probably surrounded them by now.
Seeing this, Li Guoqiang hurriedly smiled and nodded to them, then took Xu Yuchang and others into the backyard.
After Xu Yuchang and others put down the big basket in the yard, they looked around curiously.
Because before Li Guoqiang came back, he had already told them that they would live in the backyard of Xiangmi Zhai in the future, so they were naturally more concerned.
When they saw that there were not only rooms and a kitchen in the backyard, but also a well, they couldn't help but reveal a look of satisfaction on their faces.
The living conditions are much better than when they were in the countryside.
Although the space is not as big as that in the countryside, it is a brick house after all, and it is also antique. It can be seen at first glance that it is where a superior family lives.
After they finished looking at the environment, Li Guoqiang clapped his hands and asked them to gather together, then he laughed and said, "I have already told you before that from now on, the five of you, Brother Chang, Brother Da, Brother Jun, Brother Kun, and Brother Xing, will live in this wing room.
After you have completed the settlement procedures and the street office has allocated you a house, you can move out on your own.
In addition, Chu Meiling, Wu Zhaodi, and Sister Ying, the three of you should go to my house first and live with Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan, and Shen Fengxia. It's just right for two people to live in a room.
There is also something about your future work arrangements.
Among them, the five of you, Brother Chang, Brother Da, Brother Jun, Brother Kun, and Brother Xing, are temporarily responsible for helping to maintain order in the store, going out to promote our store, and doing some rough work.
Chu Meiling and Wu Zhaodi, you two will be temporarily responsible for following Shang Xiuzhen and Pan Qiaoyan and receiving guests.
Sister Ying, you will be responsible for supervising the store's accounts and working with Shen Fengxia.
When our store opens branches in the future, we will promote you based on your performance.
As long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to stay in the city and live a good life in the future."
After saying that, he asked everyone to wait for a moment, went to the front shop, replaced Shang Xiuzhen, and asked her to introduce the store's work processes and precautions to everyone, and then went to the kitchen to make some breakfast for them.
In such a busy schedule, it was soon past one o'clock in the afternoon.
The store finally became quiet.
Moreover, Xu Yuying finally saw Li Guoqiang's wife Luo Huijuan.
As soon as they met, she was struck by the dignified, virtuous temperament of Luo Huijuan. Then, looking at Luo Huijuan's pretty, beautiful face and graceful body, she couldn't help feeling ashamed for a moment.
At the same time, she also understood why Li Guoqiang married Luo Huijuan.
If it were her, she would also choose to give the position of the first lady to Luo Huijuan.
Then, just when she didn't know how to tell Luo Huijuan about her and Li Guoqiang, Li Guoqiang directly pulled Luo Huijuan to a corner and whispered to her.
When Luo Huijuan heard Li Guoqiang say that he had brought her three more good sisters, she couldn't help rolling her eyes, then reached out and pinched Li Guoqiang a few times.
Upon seeing this, Li Guoqiang immediately pretended to be in pain and grimaced, successfully calming Luo Huijuan down.
Afterwards, Luo Huijuan took the initiative to call Xu Yuying, Chu Meiling, Wu Zhaodi and the other two to the backyard room, and as the eldest lady, she explained the family rules to them.
Since the three of them were not newbies and were very familiar with the family situation, and they did not have the ambition to compete with Luo Huijuan, the result was naturally more harmonious.
When Luo Huijuan found out that Chu Meiling and Wu Zhaodi had not yet completely become Li Guoqiang's people, she immediately decided to give the first bite of the soup in the evening to them to show her magnanimity.
At the same time, this is also to block Chu Meiling and Wu Zhaodi's escape route as soon as possible so that they will not have any second thoughts.
She believed that as long as anyone had seen Li Guoqiang's abilities and realized the secret to becoming beautiful, basically no one would be willing to leave Li Guoqiang.
After they had a good conversation, Pan Qiaoyan, Shen Fengxia and others, under the leadership of Yao Meilan, prepared a large table of sumptuous meals and placed them directly in the backyard to welcome Xu Yuchang and others.
Seeing this, Xu Yuchang and others didn't say anything polite and just sat down at the table and started eating.
After dinner, Shang Xiuzhen took Xu Yuchang and others to familiarize themselves with the store's work. Luo Huijuan, on the other hand, told Li Guoqiang about the incident in which Fan Jinyou brought people to cause trouble.
"Ah!"
After hearing this, Li Guoqiang couldn't help but sneered, then said with a firm face: "In my opinion, this must be someone who is jealous of our store's business and wants to come and get a piece of the pie."
"Qiangzi, what should we do?"
Luo Huijuan frowned when she heard this, and then asked hurriedly.
"fine!"
Li Guoqiang waved his hand, and then said indifferently: "Since those people were sent away so easily by Aunt Wu, they should not come to trouble us again in the short term.
During this time, I will ask someone about the situation, and then think of a way to let those people know that we are not easy to mess with."
"Ok!"
Luo Huijuan nodded, then whispered, "Then be careful and don't make it such a big deal."
In fact, she was really worried that Li Guoqiang would get angry and lock people up in this small world.
In that case, even if there is no evidence that Li Guoqiang killed the person, there are still some hidden dangers.
If they were to be targeted by the higher-ups, it would be difficult to hide the fact that their family had so many concubines.
"Do not worry!"
Li Guoqiang smiled slightly, then whispered to comfort her: "I know what I am doing and I won't do anything rash."
After all, he now has a backer, so if he wants to deal with some bad guys, he doesn't have to resort to inhumane means.
What's more, even if he wanted to play a trick on someone, there was no need to bring the person into his little world. He only needed to use teleportation, sneak into the person's house, and pretend to be a ghost to scare the person to death.
Seeing that the serious business had been discussed, Luo Huijuan thought about how she now had six good sisters, and then thought about the wooden bed at home, and suddenly she couldn't help but said with some worry: "Hey, how do you think we should sleep at night now? Don't let the bed collapse, that would be a joke."
"fine!"
Li Guoqiang was delighted when he heard this, and then he quickly said, "I have already made a big bed in my little world with some good wood. It is more than enough for us."
Hearing this, Luo Huijuan was slightly stunned, then rolled her eyes silently.
Then, she tried to hold back, but finally couldn't help but said, "We already have enough people in our family now, so don't add any more people to the family in the future, otherwise I'm really afraid that something will happen one day."
"Got it!"
Hearing this, Li Guoqiang nodded hurriedly and agreed, "I will listen to you on this matter. I will never bring anyone home casually again."
In fact, even if Luo Huijuan didn't say it, he didn't plan to recruit any new people now.
At most, we can find some people like Qin Jingru and Yu Li, keep them outside, and let them change their taste from time to time.
"Ok!"
Seeing that Li Guoqiang really listened to her words, Luo Huijuan felt a little relieved. Then when the time was almost up, she went back to the factory with Yao Meilan to continue working.
Li Guoqiang explained to Shang Xiuzhen and others, then quietly returned to the courtyard and changed the bed in his room.
By the way, he also took out some meat, vegetables, fruits and grains from his small world to replenish the supplies at home.
In this way, even if it is discovered by someone, we can tell others that it was brought back from the countryside.
Since he represented the production team and brought so many people back to work, he didn't have to worry about arousing suspicion.
After he finished his work, he hurried back to Xiangmi Zhai, took out the bags of bamboo tubes he had prepared, some tea, lemons, etc., called a cart, and pulled them back to the shop.
Then, after Shang Xiuzhen and others inspected the goods, he directly withdrew more than 200 yuan from the account as purchasing expenses, completely separating his personal accounts and store accounts.
In addition, he is also considering making a trip to the south to see if he can find someone to cooperate in setting up a factory.
If possible, he would like to directly make canned fruit pastes such as honey lemon tea, honey grapefruit tea, honey chrysanthemum tea, honey osmanthus tea, etc., so that customers can buy them and brew them themselves.
This not only solves the problem of market expansion, but also adapts to the business environment of this era.
However, there is no need to rush this matter. After all, Jinshanbao's current honey production is not very high, and the capital is not much. If he really opens a factory, he will have no other advantages except the fruit tea making technology he has.
The most urgent task was to secure the supply of bamboo tubes, lemons and tea.
Otherwise, as the store's business continues to expand and the number of employees continues to increase, some people will definitely doubt the source of the goods.
By then, he couldn't fabricate a source of goods out of thin air!
After sorting out the next work plan, he was busy issuing work certificates to Xu Yuchang and others, so that they could go to the police station with their work certificates and household registration certificates issued by Jinshanbao to handle the household registration transfer procedures.
Once the settlement procedures are completed, they will be able to go to the street office to register, apply for grain certificates and purchase and sales certificates, and arrange for housing allocation.
Soon, it was evening.
When Xu Yuchang and others came back after finishing their business, Shang Xiuzhen and others had already packed up the shop and checked the account books with Xu Yuying.
When they saw that Xiangmi Zhai’s daily income was really over a thousand, they all smiled happily.
Afterwards, Li Guoqiang, Xu Yuchang and the others gave some instructions, asking them to guard the shop at night and not run around, and then they took Xu Yuying and the others back to the courtyard.
Because it was already late, they didn't run into any neighbors.
It was just that when Yao Meilan came back early to cook, she mentioned it to the people in the courtyard to let everyone know that some villagers from Jinshanbao had come to their house to avoid any misunderstandings.
Upon learning that Li Guoqiang had given the job quota to the people from the Jinshanbao Production Brigade, Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu and others felt instantly disappointed.
Jia Zhang stood at the door of her own house, cursing for a long time, and only went back home after being persuaded by Qin Huairu.
When Li Guoqiang and others returned to their own home, Jia Zhang was also sitting at the dinner table, with a sarcastic look on her face, staring at Qin Huairu, and angrily scolded:
"How can you be a mother? You missed such a good opportunity to return to the city. Are you worthy of Dongxu?
If anything happens to Banggeng in the countryside, I will die before I can spare you."
