Era: Life's Big Winner

Chapter 119: The incident happened suddenly, and I went to the countryside overnight

Liu Hongchang naturally agreed to what Xu Huizhen discussed.

Although medicinal liquor is indeed considered a flagship product, production will not be a problem at all after the new winery opens next year.

What's more, Xu Huizhen now places orders at import prices, which is in line with Liu Hongchang's high-end positioning of Cynomorium songaricum and Ruby Wine.

As for the medicinal liquor produced by the factory in Hong Kong Island, it is mainly sold to the global market, and its sales volume is increasing year by year.

By then, both domestic and overseas markets will be flourishing, and it will not have much impact on the domestic market.

Time flies and it is already the twelfth lunar month.

Every time this month comes, people seem to be particularly busy, and the festive atmosphere comes from all directions, mostly reflected in food and clothing.

It was a sunny Sunday, and Gao Junling and Qin Jingru brought their children to Liu Hongchang's house to play.

A group of children were laughing and playing in the yard, so happy, adding a lot of liveliness to the house.

The children were playing outside, and He Wenhui, He Wenyuan, Gao Junling and Qin Jingru happened to get together to play mahjong and were very engaged.

Liu Hongchang and Houdunzi sat on lounge chairs in the garden, drinking tea, chatting and basking in the sun.

"I originally just wanted to contract a small coal mine, one worth a few hundred million to test the waters first." Houdunzi said with a smile.

"Since you plan to invest five million and are not afraid of losing money, I certainly have no objection. It would be great to be a big boss."

In this era, five million is not a small sum, but after another ten years, it will not make even a single wave for the coal bosses.

Of course, no matter whether it is a large coal mine or a small coal mine, no one will take the whole thing alone when contracting it out. The shares will only be divided into larger or smaller amounts.

Generally, we will try to find more reliable people to cooperate with and share the risks.

This industry is a place where you can either die from drought or flood. You make money quickly but lose money quickly too. In addition to safety, there is also the fear of human influence.

"It's not easy! We talked about this a few years ago, but we're only now starting to implement it," Liu Hongchang sighed.

Hou Dunzi nodded and said, "There's nothing we can do. Many things are closely related to each other, and the higher-ups are also quite cautious."

Liu Hongchang smiled and said, "I'll leave the coal factory business to you. I don't have the energy to take care of it anyway."

"Haha, aren't you being too polite? I also invested money, so of course I hope the business will develop well." Houdunzi said with a smile.

As we were chatting, Gao Junling brought over a plate of sliced ​​apples and a plate of melon seeds and peanuts, and said with a smile, "The kids are having a blast, hiding here and there. They've never been so happy before."

"Don't play mahjong anymore?" Liu Hongchang asked with a raised eyebrow and a smile.

Gao Junling put the plate on the low table, walked to the recliner next to him and sat down, smiling, "Zhou Hao took my place."

Houdunzi pondered and said, "Hongchang, we are not outsiders. I have something to say. Two children are not enough. We need at least three."

Hearing this, Liu Hongchang looked at Gao Junling and asked with a smile, "Do you still want to have a baby?"

"What's the matter? You ignore me because you don't want to have a baby?" Gao Junling said with a glare.

Houdunzi said unhappily, "What are you talking about? Isn't Hongchang still concerned about your health?"

"Yes, try to take care of your body first. Giving birth is too damaging to your health." Liu Hongchang nodded.

Gao Junling pursed her lips and smiled faintly: "How about the second half of next year? I should be well by then."

"Okay." Liu Hongchang nodded.

Gao Junling looked at him with watery eyes and said shyly, "I don't want to go home tonight."

Liu Hongchang looked at Houdunzi and asked, "Do you want to obey her?"

"Go ahead! I can't control her." Houdunzi said helplessly, "It's better for her to stay with you, so that she won't have a hard time. At home, she always dislikes me and says sarcastic things to me."

Liu Hongchang stretched out his hand and pinched Gao Junling's face, sighed and said: "You are usually a very gentle person, why do you have such a bad temper?"

Gao Junling raised her hands, rubbed her cheeks with his palms, and said with a smile: "Maybe it's because of my age? My needs have increased." The shallow sunlight shone on her face, making it look white and rosy, delicate and full of femininity.

Houdunzi stood up and said, "You two can chat about the past first. I'll go out for a walk and come back before lunch."

"You can come back at 11 o'clock. Three hours is enough to play." Liu Hongchang reminded.

Houdunzi nodded with a smile, turned and left the garden, while Liu Hongchang and Gao Junling went directly to the backyard hand in hand.

Liu Hongchang took advantage of any opportunity and soon the two of them became entangled with each other, you are in me and I am in you, they are inseparable.

……

After lunch, Houdunzi said he had to go out and do something, so Liu Hongchang took the opportunity to invite Gao Junling and the children to stay at his home for one night.

He Wenhui and the others didn't think much about it, but instead politely invited her to stay, so Gao Junling agreed to stay for one night before going back.

At around one o'clock, He Wenhui and her friends didn't want to play mahjong anymore, so they got up and took their children to the park to play.

Liu Hongchang didn't join in the fun, and Zhou Hao didn't want to go either, so he just watched TV at home.

The TV was left there with no one watching, so the two of them went to the bedroom and made love.

After the storm calmed down, Liu Hongchang held the fragrant Zhou Hao and asked, "Do you want to go back to your hometown for the New Year this year?"

"I don't want to go back. My mom and I have agreed to go back next summer." Zhou Hao said with a rosy face and a smile on her lips.

Liu Hongchang sighed and said, "It's so hot in the summer? Why choose to go back then?"

"My dad's birthday is in July, so we chose that time." Zhou Hao looked very comfortable and said while drawing circles in his arms.

Liu Hongchang thought for a moment and said, "I will open a new factory next year and arrange a good job for you. Do you want to?"

"Is it reliable? I paid for this job with my own money." Zhou Hao pursed his lips and said hesitantly.

Liu Hongchang held the headlight in both hands and chuckled, "How can I treat you badly?"

"Yeah, that's right. You've already paid me back the money. Hehe..." Zhou Hao said with a grin, "It's up to you!"

The two chatted for a while, and Liu Hongchang became interested again, so he turned over and got stuck in the quagmire, unable to extricate himself.

……

After the 15th day of the first lunar month, the festive atmosphere becomes really strong, and every household is busy purchasing New Year's goods and preparing for the New Year.

On the evening of the 21st day of the twelfth lunar month, Qin Jingru suddenly went to the food factory to find Liu Hongchang, and said in tears that her father fell into a ditch while doing farm work in the afternoon and died on the spot.

So Liu Hongchang drove himself and sent Qin Jingru and her three children back to Hongxing Commune overnight.

When they arrived, Qin's father had already been buried.

Qin Jingru left her three children to Liu Hongchang to take care of. She went to the mourning hall, knelt down and burned paper, crying loudly.

The courtyard was full of people. Liu Hongchang was holding Qin Huishu and Qin Jingru's two brothers and smoking and chatting. Qin Huiyang and Qin Huijing went to find their grandmother.

In fact, even after so many years, Qin Jingru's family was unaware of the relationship between Liu Hongchang and Qin Jingru. They only knew that the two had a good relationship, and if they had any difficulties, they could find Liu Hongchang and he would generally help.

So when Liu Hongchang drove over this time, Qin Jingru's family was very enthusiastic and also felt very honored.

After a while, Qin Jingru came out of the mourning hall after burning some paper. She asked around and asked someone to invite a gong and drum band or something. As a daughter, she naturally wanted to send her father off in a lively manner.

In those days, transportation in rural areas relied on walking, communication relied on shouting, public security relied on dogs, heating relied on shivering, and even inviting a gong and drum band had to be asked for help.

Qin Jingru was busy for a while before she finally arranged this matter.

Her two brothers were also busy, so after talking to Liu Hongchang for a while, they went back to work.

Qin Jingru took the child in her arms and talked to Liu Hongchang.
