The leisurely life of a reborn dad

Chapter 698: Time, location, harmony (12,100)^_^

Regardless of other people's comments and discussions, after putting the sign on the car and driving home from the city, Cao Jianguo stopped going to the orchard these days.

He drove in Caojiazhuang, from the south end to the north end, and then from below to the dam, or went for a walk around the town, which was not far away.

He wasn't driving very fast either. He was getting familiar with the car and driving it for others to see.

It seems to be saying, take a look, this is the car my son bought me, and I’m asking you if it looks good?

He always kept in mind what his wife said. No matter who asked about the price, it was more than 500,000. He never told anyone that it was a limited edition and he bought it for 1.2 million.

Even so, everyone in Caojiazhuang, from the elderly to the ignorant children, knew that there was an old slut in their village who drove around in his car every day when he had nothing to do.

It's only a few minutes' walk away, but we still have to drive there. They say that new cars can't be left alone as they'll break down easily, so they have to be driven out for a spin.

After Cao Jianguo got familiar with the car for a few days, he even drove his wife to the home of his brother-in-law Wang Jialiang.

Even Wang Yuelan couldn't stand it, saying that he was too old and too capable.

My son just bought a new car for him, and it's been driving around all day long and I don't know what to do with it.

But Cao Jianguo has his pride.

In his words, he neither steals nor robs, and his son neither steals nor robs. This is the car that his son bought for him with his hard-earned money. What else!

…

Cao Shujie really didn't know what his father was doing, but even if he knew, Cao Shujie didn't care.

It is already mid-January, and Xuemeng Food Factory is still doing its final work.

We must ensure that the products are produced before the Spring Festival.

Jiajiayue Supermarket needs to stock up.

Walmart supermarkets also need to stock up.

The Credit Building also needs to stock up.

Moreover, the three supermarkets made some special requests to Cao Shujie. They asked Xuemeng Food Factory to provide preserved fruits in gift boxes in addition to normal bulk packaging.

It's not hard to imagine, and it's easy to see why they do this.

Because of this, after sales manager Guan Boyong reported this requirement of the three supermarkets to Cao Shujie, Cao Shujie called Guan Boyong, Xiang Zhengyan, Shi Jingxiu and others together for a small meeting, and finally decided to rush to produce a batch of gift boxes. .

Put the 6 flavors of preserved fruits that their factory currently has, including apple, kiwi, strawberry, yellow peach, mango and cantaloupe, into a gift box and sell it for 88.8 yuan.

The cost of some preserved fruits is very high, and you lose money if you sell them cheaply.

These 6 packages are calculated based on 100 grams per package, which is 600 grams, one pound and two taels, and the weight is not light.

In addition, they also provide another most cost-effective preserved fruit gift box.

Several kinds of cheap apple preserves, kiwi preserves and yellow peach preserves are made into one piece, two bags of each kind are placed in a gift box, the price is 58.8 yuan.

No matter which one of these two kinds of preserved fruit gift boxes, the overall price is not high, and they are also in line with the positioning of market consumer groups.

After the goods were sent out, when the three supermarkets received the goods from Xuemeng Food Factory, they were all very satisfied after reading them.

This packaging and price meet the standards of a big seller.

Whether it will work or not can only be verified by the market.

As for Cao Shujie, he is looking forward to it now, because last year he negotiated with Chen Dongliang, the director of Suzhou TV Station, and finally signed a naming advertising agreement for the "The Strongest Brain" program group. Cao Shujie paid a lump sum of 230 million for this sponsorship. advertising fee.

The program "The Strongest Brain" will be broadcast next Friday.

In terms of time, it happens to be one month before the Spring Festival, and Cao Shujie is also looking forward to the advertising effect of this program.

According to the time slot, there are four Fridays from the broadcast of the first episode to the Spring Festival. According to the frequency of broadcasting one episode per week, the premiere of "The Strongest Brain" can be promoted four times, plus It has been replayed and popular on the Internet, etc., and the promotion of Xuemeng Food Factory's Aimeng Preserved Fruit is comprehensive.

It happens to be the time when the Chinese New Year is about to come, when many families need to buy dried fruits and snacks, or buy preserved fruits in gift boxes to give gifts.

"The right time, the right location, the right people, God is really helping me!" Cao Shujie sighed in his heart.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the 230 million advertising fee was well spent.

He is now thinking that Xuemeng Food Factory only needs to make enough preserved fruits.

Therefore, during this period, the two factories have been working hard, and all employees have worked overtime to rush production, just to sell more products before the Spring Festival.

Because of this matter, Cao Shujie had no time to spend with his wife and daughter at home in the past few days after buying his father a car.

At the same time, we have to deal with the year-end meeting.

Cao Shujie has been very busy these days.

Even so, Cao Shujie always had a smile on his face every night when he returned home, and he never talked about work in front of his family, so as not to worry them.

When I got home on Thursday night, it was already past 7 o'clock.

The street lights in Caojiazhuang are on. Because of the cold, there are not many people strolling on the road like in summer.

As soon as he entered the house and changed his clothes, Cao Shujie heard his mother talking about where his father was driving his car to show off.

"Shujie, tell me, my father is almost 60 years old. He still has this kind of virtue. A horse doesn't know how to look good, and a monkey doesn't know how to have a red butt. If you ask me, you shouldn't buy him a car." Her mother, Wang Yuelan, complained. .

Cao Shujie didn't expect that his father would be like this after getting the car, but he could understand it.

But thinking about it, after he bought a car for the first time in his life, he drove to and from get off work every day. It didn't matter if he was stuck in traffic. It felt like he wanted to tell the whole world that he also had a car.

He thought again that his father's mood at this time should be the same as his at that time.

This is not difficult to understand.

Cao Shujie is still thinking about how many more days his father will drive. After this novelty wears off, he may not be willing to let him drive.

"Mom, it's okay. Let my dad drive it more. It's just for training. The more you drive this car, the better you will become. If you don't drive it, it will be easy to learn." Cao Shujie said to his mother.

Wang Yuelan said: "I just can't get angry. Now everyone in the village says he is so good at making things."

"A person of such an age doesn't know how to describe shame." Wang Yuelan muttered.

Cao Shujie laughed and didn't care very much: "Mom, that's something my dad can do."

"Just face him." Wang Yuelan stopped talking.

Cheng Xiaolin also wanted to laugh when she heard her mother-in-law complain.

She and her husband are of the same mind and think her father-in-law's current state is normal.

I also remembered that when they first bought the car, her husband would drive her out for fun every day. His behavior was the same as her father-in-law’s now. Newbies who just bought a car were like that.

Cheng Xiaolin also looked at her husband specifically, and Cao Shujie understood.

"Mom, what else is there to eat? I'm hungry." Cao Shujie asked.

Cao Shujie came back late today, but his parents, wife, children and grandfather were fine at home, so he had to eat early.

"There's still beef in the pot. I'll fish it out for you."

"Would you like the steamed buns? I'll heat them up for you." Wang Yuelan asked her son.

Cao Shujie nodded: "Eat two."

Some are good to eat, but you don’t have the right to be picky.

While eating, his mother Wang Yuelan asked him how the Daqing party in the factory went.

"It's not bad. We're still rehearsing the show. Actually, it's not that exciting. It's just an ordinary performance. Let's all join in the fun." Cao Shujie told his mother.

Even so, Wang Yuelan is looking forward to it and wants to go and see it.

"I wonder what that big star is like?" Wang Yuelan muttered.

"I'll take you there when we wait for the performance." Cao Shujie said to his mother.

After eating, Cao Shujie took the dishes and chopsticks to wash them out.

His wife is now pregnant and is sitting on the sofa, eating an apple and watching TV.

Seeing him coming out, Cheng Xiaolin pointed to the mobile phone on the other side of the sofa: "Shujie, bring it to me."

"Okay!" Cao Shujie nodded.

"How are you, don't you feel anything?"

Cheng Xiaolin nodded and said she was fine.

"I called my mother yesterday and told her that we were going out for the New Year this year. My mother also said that we should not rush to Chengjiapo and wait until we get back." Cheng Xiaolin mentioned.

Cao Shujie asked his wife if his mother-in-law was going?

Seeing his wife shaking her head and saying that her parents were busy, Cao Shujie didn't ask any more questions.

She could see the exhaustion on her husband's face, so Cheng Xiaolin asked him to go and rest early.

Cao Shujie didn't show any pretense: "Okay, I'm going to bed."

Mengmeng still wanted to play with her father. She ran over and found that her father was missing. She also asked her mother, where has his father gone?

"Your dad is tired. He went to rest. We will also go to rest later." Cheng Xiaolin said.

But Mengmeng disagreed: "Mom, I'm on vacation and I don't want to sleep."

After finishing speaking, Mengmeng looked at the turned on TV and asked her mother: "Mom, why don't you show me cartoons."

"Not today. Grandpa is also resting. We can't watch TV anymore and disturb his rest. We'll talk about it tomorrow." Cheng Xiaolin firmly disagreed.

She also sets an example. Turn off the TV yourself.

When Mengmeng saw her mother like this, she knew there was no chance of compromise. She lowered her head reluctantly, trying to look pitiful, but unfortunately Cheng Xiaolin didn't accept her.

Mengmeng felt very hurt.

I secretly vowed to learn how to turn on the TV.

…

Just as Cao Shujie and his wife thought, a week after buying the car, Cao Jianguo felt so fresh about driving there that the car stopped moving at the door.

Wang Yuelan was afraid that passing cars or other children might scratch her car, and she also wanted to ask her husband to drive the car home.

However, the car is 5 meters long and 2 meters wide. The door of their house is only more than two meters wide, and the door faces the south facing the alley. The size of the alley is a little over 3 meters. Cao Jianguo does not have the ability to drive the car home. .

In the end, I found that if I wanted to park my car securely at home, I had to modify the gate and expand it.

But now that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, it is definitely not appropriate to expand the gate.

In the end, Wang Yuelan came up with an idea. Cover the car with tarps from home.

When Cao Jianguo heard what his wife said, he didn't agree with anything.

I always feel that this approach is too outrageous.

When Wang Yuelan told her daughter-in-law about this matter, Cheng Xiaolin directly said that she could buy a special car tarpaulin online.

And good quality canvas can also protect the car from scratches, stones and other external damage.

Finally, Cheng Xiaolin went online to find a shop that made custom orders. She also asked the shop to use the best canvas, which cost more than 1,000 yuan.

Wang Yuelan also wanted to give him money, but Cheng Xiaolin refused.

In Cheng Xiaolin's words, it's not necessary.

Mengmeng is finally on winter vacation. The vacation she has been dreaming about for a long time has finally come true. She will definitely be able to run wild now.

Let grandma take her out to play every day and not come back until dark.

She didn't want to go home when she was hungry, so she asked her grandma to bring her some snacks to satisfy her hunger at any time.

Cheng Xiaolin heard her mother-in-law talk about Mengmeng's current condition, but she didn't care.

Mengmeng is still a child, and it is the nature of this age group to love playing. It is unrealistic to expect Mengmeng to be locked at home and study hard.

There is still one month left before the Chinese New Year. As kindergartens and primary schools are on winter vacation, there are many children in Caojiazhuang.

The sounds of firecrackers and fireworks gradually increased.

Let adults feel that the New Year is not far away.
