Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 619: Being Troubled by Ah San

In a blink of an eye, it was the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month. Chuangzhi Technology closed down a day early, just in time for Zhou Jing and Gu Jia to buy New Year's goods.

Because this time they would be back for a long time, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia spent the whole afternoon shopping for things to bring back for the New Year, including New Year's goods, gifts for family members, children's clothes and other miscellaneous things, and set off early in the morning on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.

"Did you drop anything?"

Wu Suqin said as she tidied up the trunk of the car.

"Just don't leave behind the important things. I didn't bring the rabbit."

Zhou Jing turned off all the electricity and water valves in the villa, and closed the doors and windows. He forgot to bring the rabbit. Zhou Jing took the key from Gu Jia's bag and went home. He changed the feces tray under the rabbit cage and put the tray with feces outside. He put a carrot and a few vegetable leaves in the cage.

"It's really troublesome to take a pet out, because it can't fit in the trunk."

Gu Jia opened the trunk and looked inside.

Zhou Jing put the rabbit cage under the passenger seat. Although raising a pet is troublesome, there is no way to avoid it. Since you have raised it, you must take good care of it. You can't just play with the pet when you want and then ignore it and let it die when you get tired of it. You have to see it through to the end.

"dudu~"

The child looked at the rabbit and reached out.

"Go home, do you want to go back to your hometown?"

Gu Jia said while holding the tightly wrapped child.

"Hmm~"

The little girl stared at Zhou Jing with her watery eyes, as if she was worried that Zhou Jing would leave her behind to go on a business trip again.

"Dad is going on a business trip and won't be back for a long time. Say goodbye to Dad."

Gu Jia lied to the child and pretended to take the child back to the house.

"He~he~Daddy, hug me~"

The little girl thought it was true and started to cry anxiously.

"How about going with dad?"

Zhou Jing said while looking at the child while blocking the wind.

"Hmm~"

The child's arms were wrapped in a down jacket, and his already inflexible hands were wearing cotton gloves, and he was clumsily doing the Zhouzhou gesture.

"Then let mom hold you in the car."

Zhou Jing bit the child's hand and said.

"You only have eyes for your dad and your mom to hold you."

Gu Jia smiled and sighed, then got into the car and sat in the back seat. When the car was almost warm enough, she took off the child's hat.

Zhou Jing moved the passenger seat to the front, fastened Gu Jia's seat belt, closed the door, and walked around the front of the car to get in.

"Grandma, give mom a hug so she can rest for a while."

Wu Suqin said as she got in the car.

"No need to hold her. It's not comfortable for me to hold her in the car."

Gu Jia put the child on a seat specially installed for children, which was in the middle of the back seat of the car. It was equipped with a pillow, a quilt and a seat belt. Gu Jia took off the child's down jacket and put the child on the small seat, covered him with the quilt and fastened the seat belt.

“Is this seat comfortable?”

Zhou Jing turned around, held the child's feet and said.

"Say it's comfortable."

Gu Jia kissed the child and said.

"Comfortable~"

The little girl's baby voice was confusing.

"I still have to buy a big SUV. An SUV is more spacious when I'm traveling long distances with my kids."

Zhou Jing doesn’t have a decent SUV yet, but Gu Jia has one which is a compact one.

"We don't take the child on long trips very often. Zhou Zhou won't need this chair in half a year." Gu Jia chatted and teased the child, "Chat with daddy and tell him to be safe."

"Dad~"

Lying on the exclusive seat, the little girl called out.

"Sing a song for Daddy, Little Bunny Boy."

"Little Du, be good~"

The child babbled, his pronunciation was unclear but very pleasant to the ear.

"Little bunny, open the door!"

Gu Jia taught the child sentence by sentence.

The baby's babbling voice in the car seemed to refresh Zhou Jing, making him not feel sleepy at all.

On the way, he not only had to take care of the child, but also the rabbit. When passing a service station, Zhou Jing stopped the car. Gu Jia changed the child's diaper and went to the toilet. Zhou Jing took the rabbit cage to the green belt and cleaned the feces tray.

"Rich people keep pets in such a simple way. Is this rabbit a special breed?"

"It looks no different from the little white rabbit I once raised."

The ordinary rabbit in Zhou Jing's hand seemed not so ordinary to others.

"See what your dad is doing?"

Wu Suqin held the child outside to get some fresh air.

"Dad~"

"Bunny's stinky stinky or Zhou Zhou's stinky stinky?"

Zhou Jing put the rabbit cage in the sun to dry, took two pieces of paper from the car and went to the bathroom.

“Is this a Maybach?”

"S680, modified or real?"

"Master Jing, it shouldn't have been changed. Master Jing doesn't need this little money."

"You look so familiar, is he the boss of Ideal Mobile?"

"Seems to be."

"."

After going to the bathroom, Zhou Jing called her best friend Bai to ask about the arrangements for Ideal Technology.

Ideal Technology is different from other companies. Ideal Technology has its own production line. Since January, sales of Ideal products have been increasing steadily. Production continued as usual during the Spring Festival, and workshop employees went to work as usual. The production department also arranged for people to stay behind. Ideal Technology paid triple salary to all those who stayed behind in the company from the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month to the 7th day of the first lunar month, so that they can work overtime as happily as possible. Workers in the production workshop who need to go home can switch shifts with their colleagues on their own, and those who do not need to work overtime can take a day off today.

"The company's New Year's Eve dinner is a bit more sumptuous, and the first day of the new year is dumplings."

Bai Xiyao's family has all gone to Tangdu and are spending the New Year there. It is more convenient if there is something going on at the company and they can go there anytime. This was the main reason why Bai Xiyao asked her parents to transfer the Internet cafe in Yushi and move to Tangdu.

"The meals on New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year are free. Companies that have spouses going to Tangdu to accompany employees for the New Year will make arrangements."

Zhou Jing advised that working overtime during the Spring Festival is not a pleasant thing, and triple the salary is incomparable to spending time with family, but for the development of the company, they have to bear with it. Ideal Technology is very humane. Some companies require employees to pay for the New Year's Eve dinner after working overtime on the night of the Spring Festival. It is really depressing to work in such a company.

Bai Xiyao: "Okay, after the New Year, how about retesting Ideal 1s and Imagine 1s and starting mass production after the tests are completed?"

Zhou Jing: "Okay, how much do these two models cost now?"

Bai Xiyao: "The cost of Ideal 1s is about 1 yuan now, and the cost of Changxiang s is about yuan. If mass production starts in March, the processor price can be reduced a little."

周靖：“三月下旬上市，理想1s发布价2799，畅想1s发布价1199，发布后理想1和畅想1各降价100，理想1s国外3499起售，畅想1s国外1599起售。”

"it is good."

"."

The pricing of the Ideal series models is a bit high. Zhou Jing thought about it and decided to set the price like this. No matter how outrageous the pricing is, it is not as excessive as foreign brands such as iPhone and Samsung. Foreign brands can price traditional mobile phones at more than four or five thousand. The profit margins of Samsung and iPhone smartphones are greater than any domestic brands.

The Ideal series will move towards high-end models in the future, and now we must take advantage of the software system to build the brand.

Furthermore, only when profit margins and sales volume increase at the same time will the company have the capital to delve deeper into technological research and development. If it follows the example of its domestic competitors and simply raises prices without making technological breakthroughs, no matter how much it sells, it will be useless and will be tantamount to chronic suicide.

The company is uncomfortable because the profit margin is suppressed by the coil price, and the employees are uncomfortable because their income is not increasing. Zhou Jing would rather price his products high and lose sales to competitors and go bankrupt quickly than survive by relying on the coil price.

The car was dried, and the people and the rabbit were dried too, and they set off again.

There were more cars on the highway than usual. Zhou Jing, who had his family and children in the car, drove steadily and arrived at Qing County at around 5:00 p.m. Since there was no one at home in the county, he did not stay there and went straight back to the countryside.

"The New Year atmosphere in the county town is so strong. Are you going to buy New Year goods tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"

The county town was filled with the atmosphere of the New Year. Red lanterns could be seen everywhere. There were vendors selling all kinds of New Year goods on both sides of the streets. The county town bridge was decorated with lights and colors, which made Gu Jia want to go shopping.

"Come and buy something tomorrow."

This is the first time that Gu Jia comes to her hometown to celebrate the New Year, so Zhou Jing of course wants to take Gu Jia to experience the New Year in a small town. Last year, Gu Jia was pregnant and did not go home for the New Year, and next year, Gu Jia may not be able to come back because of pregnancy. It is not easy to go back to their hometown together to celebrate the New Year.

On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, many people have returned to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year. From time to time, there are speeding cars on the village road. The village road is not wide, just a two-lane road. When a car passes by, you have to be careful to pull over and avoid it.

Zhou Jing's car is the most beautiful one in his hometown. When people from the same village who drive see the Maybach S680, which is rarely seen even in big cities, they guess it is Zhou Jing's car, and they actively pull over to let him pass, slow down, and roll down the window to say hello.

"Come back for the New Year?"

"Well, where are you going so late?"

Zhou Jing stopped the car, took out a box of cigarettes, took out a cigarette and handed it to the other party.

"Take mine and buy a poker."

The other party said this and took Zhou Jing's cigarette.

“There is no more store in the village?”

Zhou Jing thought to himself that he was really not doing his job properly, and he even drove out to buy poker cards.

"No, Old Xu is gone this year and there is no one to open the store. The child is already so old, and there is no red envelope, so just buy a toy for the child."

Seeing Zhou Jing's child leaning on the window and looking out from the back seat of his car, the other party took out two hundred yuan.

"no, I'm fine."

Zhou Jing immediately gave up. "It's for the children of fellow villagers."

The other party stuffed the money into Zhou Jing's car window.

"Chou Chou, thank you, uncle."

It was disrespectful to refuse, so Zhou Jing took the money and rolled down the rear window. Returning to his hometown, he couldn't avoid the social etiquette.

"Say Happy New Year Uncle."

Gu Jia carried the child to the window and said.

"Susu~ Happy~"

"Happy New Year, this child really looks like you two, then you go ahead and get busy, I just came over and saw your grandfather waiting on the street."

"Then uncle, take care."

Zhou Jing nodded and started the car.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

“Is gambling serious during the New Year among those who hang out outside?”

Gu Jia said after the car drove away.

"It's not serious. The bigger bets are 10 yuan for mahjong and 5 yuan for playing poker."

Not many people in Zhou Jing's hometown gamble. Those who play regularly are always the same few people. There are not many people who live in the village all year round who play on their own, and those who go out can only play for a few days after returning during the Chinese New Year.

Wu Suqin smiled and said, "Your grandfather often played in the winter. Old people play small games, and they run faster when they play together, or they smoke, one card and one cigarette."

"It's a good way for the elderly to pass the time by entertaining themselves. The cigarettes for gambling should be the same, right? What kind of cigarettes are usually there?"

It was the first time that Gu Jia heard of gambling and cigarettes.

Wu Suqin said, "Five dollars a box of Monkey King."

Seeing Zhou Jing's car coming back, the old man drove his three-wheeled motorcycle to the bottom of the slope to pull things, while Zhou Guozhong and the old lady walked behind.

"Do you still remember the old man and the old lady?"

Gu Jia carried the child and walked towards the old man and the old lady.

"The baby is back. Is he cold?"

The old lady said, holding the child's hand.

"Tell grandma if you're cold?"

"It's not cold~"

The little girl snuggled in Gu Jia's arms and said obediently.

"The rabbit has grown so big now. Should we take it with us when we bring it back?"

The old man put the rabbit cage on the three-wheeled motorcycle and said.

"Bring it. Zhou Zhou has to watch it every day."

Zhou Jing opened the trunk of the car to keep the things belonging to his grandmother and uncle's family, and took out his own things.

"Mom, car~"

The child pointed at the three-wheeled motorcycle and said.

"You've been riding the bus for a whole day and still want to ride?"

Gu Jia leaned close to the child and said.

"You can't sit on this one, let grandpa hold you."

Zhou Guozhong didn't smoke much these two days in order to hold his child.

After putting the things away, the old man drove his three-wheeled motorcycle ahead.

“There are still people herding cattle now.”

Gu Jia said as she looked at the yellow cattle eating corn stalks on the dam.

"We have to release fodder during the New Year even if we don't have fodder at home." Zhou Jing looked at the child and said, "Zhou Zhou, how does a calf call?"

"Huh~"

The child mooed like a cow.

"The kid is getting smarter and smarter. He's much smarter than your father was when he was a child."

The old lady touched the child's head through the cotton wool and said.

"the student surpasses the master."

There were still dates on the jujube tree at the bottom of the slope. Zhou Jing picked two, but they were too dry to eat.

"Daddy hug~"

The child waved at Zhou Jing.

Gu Jia said, "Dad is tired after driving all day, so let Grandpa hold him."

"The big boss is back. How much did Jing earn this year?"

Many old men, women, uncles, aunts and young people gathered on the street, all looking to greet Zhou Jing.

“I didn’t make much.”

Zhou Jing took out cigarettes and distributed them to everyone.

"You must have made a lot. It's said on the Internet that your company distributed 10 billion in dividends to employees."

A young guy said.

"The more you earn, the more you spend."

Zhou Jing said modestly.

"The more successful a person is, the more humble he is. Mr. Zhou, do you play mahjong in the evening?"

The neighbor aunt’s son said.

"can."

"This baby is so handsome, he looks like he is destined to be rich."

"He's almost one year old, right?"

"It will be one year old in less than two weeks."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Zhou Jing and his friends went home. Dinner was ready. Zhou Jing and Gu Jia washed their faces, washed the child's face and hands, and went to eat.

"Go up and eat."

The old lady said to Zhou Jing and Gu Jia.

There was a low square table on the kang, which was filled with sumptuous meals, including mutton, stir-fried pork, and a steamed chicken. It was unknown how many chickens had to be sacrificed when Zhou Jing's family came back to celebrate the New Year.

"What a sumptuous meal, do you want to eat?"

Zhou Jing said as he carried the child onto the kang.

The little girl drooled as she watched and reached out for the plate.

"this is delicious."

Zhou Jing broke off half a steamed bun and gave it to the child because it was no longer hot. The little girl grabbed the bun with both hands and started to eat it.

Gu Jia sat next to Zhou Jing, rubbed the child's face and said, "Is it delicious?"

“Haha~”

The little girl was as happy as a candied haws.

"The chicken is not spicy. Will the children dare to eat it now?"

The old lady picked up a chicken leg for Gu Jia and another one for Wu Suqin.

"You can eat less."

There were only two chicken legs, and the old lady gave one each to herself and her mother-in-law. Gu Jia thought that it was an ancestral custom for Zhou Jing's family to love their daughter-in-law.

"Open your mouth."

Zhou Jing tasted the chicken thigh to see if it was salty enough, then tore off a small piece of meat and handed it to the child.

"Ah~" The little girl opened her mouth obediently, just like a bird that saw its parent bird carrying food back and feeding it to its child. Zhou Jing said, "Chew it a few more times, chew it thoroughly before swallowing."

"Grandma made the chicken very tasty. Let mom have some porridge. Dad is tired after a long day, so let him have a good meal."

Gu Jia tasted the chicken and realized that she could only eat such authentic chicken by returning to her hometown.

"There's nothing wrong on the ground. Suqin can go up and eat too."

The old lady said to Wu Suqin.

"No, it's more comfortable to stand after being in the car all day."

Wu Suqin ate while standing with the bowl in her hand.

"Dad~ah~"

Being held in Gu Jia's arms, the little girl still did not forget to ask Zhou Jing to feed her, and she opened her mouth consciously when he called out.

The braised lamb was not spicy. Zhou Jing tasted it and found the lamb was chewy. The child's teeth couldn't handle it, so Zhou Jing picked up the easy-to-chew fat part and fed it to the child to try.

"Mom~"

The child opened his mouth towards Gu Jia again.

Gu Jia picked up a piece of white radish from the stewed mutton, chewed it up and fed it to the child.

[After we refused to build a factory in India, India really restricted the import of our products. However, other major domestic brands do not plan to build mobile phone factories in India for the time being. Xiaomi is willing to build a factory but lacks funds. India is unwilling to provide too much loan, leaving room for us. If we build a factory in India, it will be fine. If we don’t build a factory, India will continue to restrict our products to reduce our market share and increase the share of brands willing to build factories.]

Bai Xiyao received a message from the overseas Asian market director and sent a message to Zhou Jing.
