Era: Life's Big Winner

Chapter 68 Confused Gao Junling
morning.

In the shade of the cafeteria's backyard, Liu Hongchang was drinking herbal tea from a teacup.

"He is a great chef after all. The herbal tea he cooks is really delicious." Jinzhi squatted aside, holding the earthen bowl and drinking tea in small sips.

She is Jin Xiu's younger sister and Jin Yitang's youngest daughter. She is a Peking Opera actress and is extremely beautiful.

A standard oval face with natural and smooth contours, a full and round forehead, moderate proportions, and a skinny face.

Her cheeks are a little chubby and have a pair of obvious dimples. Her smile exudes an unconcealed sense of pure beauty.

She has big eyes with upturned eye bags, she looks lazy and elegant, and her eyes are blurry and seductive.

Her eyes are full of tenderness and charm.

She also has a very good figure, tall, plump, well-proportioned and with fair skin.

She has a slender waist, is thin but not boneless, and has flesh grown in the right places. She is a typical plump beauty, graceful and curvy.

"Don't come to my workplace to play in the future. Didn't you see that my colleagues are looking at me in a strange way?" Liu Hongchang said, glancing at her.

This woman is extrovert and dresses fashionably. When the kitchen workers see her, they can't take their eyes off her.

She said she was passing by, talked to Liu Hongchang for a few words, drank a cup of tea and left.

But his colleagues all looked at Liu Hongchang with strange eyes, and they must have been mumbling about something in their hearts.

Jinzhi curled her lips, looked around, and when she found no one around, she whispered:

"That's not what you said when you dug me up. You're telling me you're lying. Are you turning your back on me now?"

Liu Hongchang laughed and patted her head with his hand, saying unhappily, "You don't care about the occasion. Finish your tea and get out!"

"Go away if you want. Don't try to steal me next time." Jinzhi pouted and said, "Besides, my sister is getting married soon, and her partner is a country boy."

"Have you found the right person?" Liu Hongchang said secretly.

Jin Yitan wanted to find a son-in-law to live with his family, but he didn't want him to be obsessed with the family's money. Naturally, he wanted to find a safe and reliable one without any worries, so it took so long.

Jin Xiu did decorate a room at home so that Liu Hongchang could go there at any time, but Jin Yitan said that he was not allowed to spend the night there until the matter was settled.

Even if he stayed with Jin Xiu in private for more than ten minutes, Jin Yitan would remind him in time and would not allow Jin Xiu to go out selfishly.

Considering that her father had given in so much, Jin Xiu did not do anything too excessive and only let Liu Hongchang kiss, hug and touch her.

Jin Zhi hummed, looked at Liu Hongchang thoughtfully, and asked doubtfully: "Are you hiding something from me?"

"Ask your sister about this. She should be able to tell you." Liu Hongchang pondered.

Jinzhi took a sip of tea and frowned, "You told me it's different? I just want you to tell me."

"Later! I'll tell you after things are finally done." Liu Hongchang said with a smile.

Jinzhi choked, drank the cold tea in big gulps, stood up, stuffed the bowl into Liu Hongchang's arms, and waved, "I'm leaving, don't see me off."

"When is the holiday?" Liu Hongchang asked.

Jinzhi twisted her waist and said without turning her head, "It's only half a day off. I have to go on a business trip in the afternoon. Don't worry about it. I'll do it when I get back."

Liu Hongchang looked at her back, smiled, took the tea bowl and teacup, stood up and went back to the kitchen.

……

It was almost noon when Liu Hongchang said goodbye to Liuzi and the others and left the cafeteria on his bicycle.

Ever since He Wenhui became pregnant, he would personally deliver meals to the garment factory every day at noon because the food there was not good.

Even though supplies are more abundant these days, most people don’t eat well, and the vast majority are still busy struggling to make ends meet.

The same is true for factories. They usually focus on raw materials, with less oil and more salt. The taste is average, and you can only eat meat after many days.

Yesterday morning, Liu Hongchang was still listening to Qin Jingru saying that Huaihua complained to her that they were almost sick of eating noodles at home. It was said that Director Yang of the steel mill was punished to sweep the streets during the special period.

One of the things he was criticized for was that he protected Sha Zhu, who often took food from the canteen back home and stole public food.

Perhaps because he had suffered a lot, after Director Yang was reinstated, he no longer allowed kitchen workers to take food away privately.

As the canteen monitor, Sha Zhu was the one being watched the most closely. No matter how bold this guy was, he wouldn't dare to do anything reckless without someone to back him up.

The most important thing is that the canteen director there is very capable and can subdue Sha Zhu, making his life very difficult.

Because of this, Sha Zhu didn't even dare to take private jobs openly, for fear that his boss would notice him and cause trouble for him.

Another thing is that after he married Qin Huairu, he had to support the whole family, young and old, and he had a burden on himself.

So I don’t do things as recklessly and unscrupulously as I did when I was young. People always change.

When he arrived at the garment factory, the workers had just got off work and Liu Hongchang came on time.

There are six lunch boxes in total, carried in a net bag, three lunch boxes for meals and three lunch boxes for soup.

Liu Hongchang took time out to prepare a lot of meals and soup.

Dozens of home-cooked dishes and a dozen soups, both meat and vegetarian, are placed in the space and can be taken and used whenever you want to eat.

In the future, if he goes on a business trip, he won’t have to suffer when it comes to meals.

In the corner of the canteen of the garment factory, there was a lot of noise. Liu Hongchang, He Wenhui and Gao Junling sat down. Gao Junling couldn't wait to say:
"What's for dinner today? I look forward to lunch every day, mainly because Hong Chang's food is really delicious."

"Garlic pork ribs, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, cold cucumber salad and tofu soup." Liu Hongchang said with a smile, taking out the lunch boxes from the net bag one by one.

He Wenhui asked with a smile: "Did you add some pickles? The pickles in the morning were delicious, very memorable, and can be eaten as a snack."

"That won't work. You're pregnant. It's okay to eat something appetizing occasionally, but you can't eat too much." Liu Hongchang shook his head.

At this time, an employee of the garment factory greeted Liu Hongchang. He came here often and knew quite a few people.

However, these people were very tactful. They knew that Liu Hongchang was delivering food to his wife, so they did not come to join in the fun.

"Let me drink some soup first. It's too hot today and my appetite is a bit poor." Gao Junling took the lunch box and smiled.

There were six lunch boxes, two for each person, one of which was filled with rice with vegetables on top, and the other was filled with soup.

"Well, this tofu soup has a light flavor, with a pleasant bean aroma. It's very delicious." She took a sip and said with great satisfaction.

The three of them ate and chatted.

"After my mother-in-law came, Dunzi seldom came home." Gao Junling whispered.

"I heard from him that the coal plant is going to be restructured in a few years, and it will most likely be contracted out in the future. Dunzi wants to perform well to see if he can get a foothold."

Liu Hongchang nodded and said, "He told me about this and asked me if I was interested in investing some money."

"It's a huge investment, right? A few tens of thousands won't make even a small difference." He Wenhui hesitated.

Liu Hongchang nodded and said, "That's for sure. Even a small coal mine would cost hundreds of thousands of yuan."

"Money can be earned slowly. It's always better to have an opportunity than no opportunity. If you want to make this money, it doesn't matter how much you invest. The key is to enter this circle first." Gao Junling smiled.

He Wenhui smiled and nodded, "That's right. After all, Hongchang is the boss, so I don't care about that."

"You! You are destined to enjoy life. Everything goes smoothly throughout your life and you rarely have to worry." Gao Junling said with a smile.

"Even if Hong Chang doesn't do anything else and only relies on his cooking skills to make a living, he can still live a prosperous life."

Hearing this, He Wenhui glanced at Liu Hongchang tenderly, smiled innocently, and said to Gao Junling:
"Brother Dunzi is also very capable. Although he is not well educated, he is smart and has made a lot of money over the years!"

Gao Junling laughed dryly and nodded, "Not as good as the best, but better than the worst, I guess. I just got through it in a daze."
