Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 116 Big Opportunity

During her lunch break that day, she ran to the post office and sent the remaining translation manuscripts to Xiao Jiaxue.

In addition, she sent photos of Cheng Tianfang to her parents, telling them to pay attention to the cold and take good care of their health.

Then she went back to work.

Everything went smoothly for her, but Cheng Tianyuan was scolded bloody by his boss Lao Wang.

"It's been more than half a month since you left! The supply and marketing cooperative has to purchase and ship goods, and a lot of accounts have to be sorted out every day! There are settlements over there, and payments here. It's so busy!"

Cheng Tianyuan said quietly: "Old Wang, this is what an accountant should do. I only get the salary of a salesperson."

After the supply and marketing cooperative was converted from public to private, the accountant was reluctant to work at first. He always felt that he had suffered a lot of injustice and was entrusted to someone else.

Lao Wang, the boss, was also very picky and always disliked him. Later, he simply found an excuse to fire him.

There is a lot of accounting work, especially since the supply and marketing cooperative has a large amount of goods coming in and out every day, so it is very difficult to register.

Lao Wang couldn't bear to hire an additional accountant, and he had learned a little about numbers, so he started writing by himself.

Fortunately, Cheng Tianyuan had gone to high school and had a solid foundation in mathematics. He was very good at calculating the abacus, so he helped with the calculations in the morning and evening, so that Lao Wang could always take some time off to fatten up.

After he left, Lao Wang had to do everything by himself, and occasionally even had to work overtime until night, so he was full of complaints.

"Hey! Don't forget, I give you a salary increase every year! Chen Min is a few years older than you, and he is only one hundred and fourteen."

Cheng Tianyuan smiled slightly and said, neither humble nor arrogant: "I am also one hundred and four, but I have to make accounts and make payments, so I am much busier than him."

Lao Wang was speechless for a moment and said in a low voice: "Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and put it into the account! I don't care for idlers here!"

Cheng Tianyuan thought that he would resign after working for more than a month, so he didn't care about his bad tone and turned to work.

When he closed the door after get off work that day, Lao Wang threw a ledger to him.

"You go back tonight to calculate it and hand it in tomorrow."

Cheng Tianyuan managed not to get angry and nodded.

The honest Chen Min on the side couldn't see it and stared at the thick account book.

"It's time to get off work, and you still have to go back and work overtime at night. This is originally the accountant's job, but he doesn't hire an accountant, and he doesn't do it himself, so he leaves it to you all day long!"

Cheng Tianyuan thought that he wouldn't have to help his wife copy the final draft these nights, so he didn't care.

"Forget it, it's cold and there's nowhere to go, so it's just idle time."

Chen Min secretly scolded Lao Wang and asked, "By the way, has my cousin gone to find you two? He should be back."

Cheng Tianyuan got on his bicycle and replied: "Not yet, probably tonight."

The two said goodbye in a hurry, and Cheng Tianyuan went to pick up Xue Ling before heading to the rental house.

On the way, the two of them saw someone selling roasted sweet potatoes on the street. Xue Ling jumped down and bought six of them, wrapping them warm in oil paper.

"Go back and eat with your parents!"

Cheng Tianyuan responded, kicked his feet, and the bicycle was stable and back on the road.

At this time, shouting came from behind: "Brother Ayuan! Sister-in-law! Ayuan! Sister-in-law! Wait!"

Xue Ling looked back and shouted in surprise: "Brother Ahu!"

Cheng Tianyuan stopped the car quickly.

Ahu was wrapped in a military coat and a Lei Feng hat, and his nose was red from the cold. "I just came back from a long run. I thought you guys should have gotten off work, so I drove over here and went home later. I didn't expect to see them on the road! It's great!"

Cheng Tianyuan took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to him.

"I bought this in the provincial capital for you to try."

Ahu was not polite, he took it and stuffed it into his pocket with a smile, and then leaned towards them.

"The driver's name is Lao Lin, who specializes in the Imperial Capital route. He said that Lin Cong and the others got off the bus at Yuecheng, which is not far from the train station. There are no people nearby. If they can't stay overnight, they must go to the train station. He later recalled Lin Cong said that he has relatives in the imperial capital, they seem to be some kind of cousins, and he will look for them after he goes to settle down, and there will be some people to take care of them."

Xue Ling's heart skipped a beat when he heard this!
Couldn't it be...referring to their home?

Cheng Tianyuan asked nervously: "What is the name of the relative? Has he mentioned it?"

"I didn't ask." Ahu sniffed and whispered: "I just gave them a ride, and I wasn't interested in asking too many questions. If Lin Cong didn't like to brag, he wouldn't have heard this."

Cheng Tianyuan nodded and said: "At least we can confirm that they are going to the Imperial Capital, which is good news!"

Xue Ling quickly echoed: "Brother Ahu, thank you!"

She quickly took out a large sweet potato from the oil paper and handed it to him.

"Are you hungry? Eat something to cushion your stomach first. We bought it in advance."

Ah Hu was not polite and took it without even peeling it off. He started chewing it with big mouthfuls.

"Thank you, sister-in-law! I didn't eat much for lunch, and my stomach has been growling for a long time! Wow! These sweet potatoes are so sweet! Delicious!"

Cheng Tianyuan smiled and said, "Come over and have a casual meal with us tonight!"

"No." Ahu said with a smile: "My mother is still waiting for me at home. She knows that I will come back in the evening, and she must have cooked for me. I'd better go back early and don't let her worry."

He quickly finished the sweet potatoes and took out a cloth from his pocket to wipe his hands.

"By the way, sister-in-law, I have one more thing to discuss with you."

Xue Ling asked: "What's the matter?"

Ahu laughed and explained: "I told you a while ago that I planned to do some business. You said that if there are any good opportunities, I have to tell you in advance. Don't I have any opportunities? I want to attract you. The couple is working together!"

Xue Ling and Cheng Tianyuan looked at each other and asked in unison: "What business?"

Ah Hu sniffed and lowered his voice: "Construction has been going on in the land by the river a few days ago. Several groups of workers are working on it. There are so many machines and so on. The scene is huge! I counted, there must be at least several hundred workers. doing."

"I asked around. The factory materials and other materials are all shipped from the dock. As long as they are connected, they will be ready for use soon. I heard that two factories will be recruiting workers to start work after the Chinese New Year."

He smiled lowly and gestured with five big, thick, black fingers.

"I also asked, six or seven factories must have at least [-] workers."

Cheng Tianyuan was a little surprised and asked: "So many people?"

Ahu couldn't help but nodded and said: "With the management staff and so on, it must be more than that! Workers have to work in shifts, and there are dormitories in the factory. Not only do we recruit workers nearby, but we also have to go to far away places to recruit, otherwise there will be no numbers. enough!"

Xue Ling's eyes lit up and he asked, "What business are you planning to do? Selling things to these workers?"

"Yo! My sister-in-law is so smart!" Ahu gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "I want to pick a place in the middle to build a big house to sell daily necessities and some food. More than 5000 people will need food, drink and supplies. , that’s a big market!”

Cheng Tianyuan's eyes were also bright, and he turned to look at Xue Ling excitedly.

This suits him so well!
