"Of course I have something to do. I have also secured a place for you in the non-staple food store in the family area. Thank me how you can."
The family area is improving community functions. With the support of the city and the cooperation of various departments, the family members The district's non-staple food stores, supply and marketing cooperatives, grain and oil stores, and markets have all been completed, which can solve some employment problems for the families of employees in the steel rolling mill.
Now that Yu Li came to the door, I felt that this little daughter-in-law was not bad. After helping me look at the vegetable garden a few times, I agreed to give it a try. Zhu Xuefeng took the opportunity to recommend Yu Li. Unexpectedly, Lao Yang He moves very quickly.
“Oh, so soon, when can she come to work?”
“Next Monday, next Monday, the grocery store started closing yesterday, and it will still be open for a few days. She can’t get the job, but we agreed that she can only be considered a temporary logistics worker in our factory. If she wants to be promoted to a full-time employee, it will depend on her performance, and the other will have to wait until the quota is set.”
“Sure, Temporary workers are good. I think she is young and literate. If she is wasting her time, she might as well come out to serve our workers’ families. You have been a big help, haha. I have to let her come and thank you in person. "< br>
"It's not surprising. Who is doing this? Just tell me. When will there be news about the car I want? I've already boasted about it. Our minister is waiting, so don't Let me make a fool of myself.”
The purpose of the vehicle factory’s car project brought Zhu Xuefeng into Professor Xu’s team. Zhu Xuefeng spent most of his extracurricular time in the vehicle factory during the past six months. Of course Lao Yang asked him.
“Don’t worry about this, we will definitely deliver your first qualified car before National Day.”
Lao Yang patted Zhu Xuefeng on the shoulder and was very happy. Xia called and said it was very difficult. Now Zhu Xuefeng's reply gave him reassurance. This old Xia had also become bad and actually set an ambush for him.
"This thing is going to be done. I can't thank you enough. Hahaha, this is what you said. Don't be unable to hand it over when the time comes."
Zhu Xuefeng is a leader in the progress and technical research of the car project. Clearly. "Don't worry, don't worry about me. You have to trust Professor Xu. He is as anxious as you and wants to complete this project as soon as possible."
"Yes, Professor Xu is a good comrade. It's a pity that I still have It seems that there is no hope for him to take over the relevant business of the institute.
"But the leader, I still suggest that we develop along the path of engineering vehicles. Small cars can create achievements." , build a few vehicles and deliver them first. "
When he heard this, Lao Yang became a little serious, "I thought about what you mentioned last time when I went back. It is indeed necessary. But Xiao Zhu, maybe I am too ambitious. I want to ask. Question, since you said that our cars are really going to be manufactured and will be no worse than the most advanced ones in the world, can we follow the method of the motorcycle project? We should focus on export sales and continue to earn foreign exchange. "
"Well, leader, I don't have a good opinion of your idea. Let's put it this way, I personally think it is very difficult, at least much more difficult than the motorcycle project, but it is not impossible to give it a try. You still have to try it. Please seek the opinions of higher authorities and partners. "
Lao Yang threw out the cigarette and the two of them lit it, "When the car is actually built and proven to be good everywhere, of course we have to consult the higher authorities and Dongsheng Company for their opinions. Isn't this out yet? , I have to figure it out myself. Now that Lao Chen is not here, I can only ask you. You know a lot about these things. "
"Don't flatter me. "Zhu Xuefeng stood up and opened the back window. As long as he lit up the cigarette, according to the previous rules, the cigarette could not be stopped until Chou Yinmao came.
"I know how capable I am. , I know you want to ask, why is it said to be much more difficult than the motorcycle project, right? "
Zhu Xuefeng turned back and sat opposite Lao Yang again.
"Leader, at that time, in the motorcycle project, small-displacement motorcycles were considered blank internationally and there was no inherent market. When our new products appeared, there were basically no competitors except Fuso's competition."
老Yang vomited, "I understand, you are saying that the foreign car market is relatively mature. If you want to break into the enemy, you will be resisted by them. It is more difficult than opening up a new market. There will be considerable resistance. For ”
“That’s pretty much it. Of course, it’s definitely difficult. If we have the confidence to build a car that’s not inferior to theirs, we’ll have the confidence to face the difficulties. The key to market development depends on the partners. , they are the leaders in market development, listen more to their suggestions, I think there may be some gains."
Lao Yang nodded, "What you said makes sense, you have to try it no matter how difficult it is. No matter how difficult it is, it is better than leaving it to the Ministry of Commerce to come forward."
Lao Yang felt that this time, Secretary Liu led the team to participate in the Canton Fair. It was a big scene, but in the end, Dongsheng Company failed. Without taking any action, only two diesel engine trucks with obviously excellent performance were sold, each with a price tag of less than 7,000 US dollars, which was more than half the current price in Europe and the United States. After the secretary came back, his momentum suddenly dropped. Go down.
Take another deep breath and spit out, "Small cars are much more expensive than small-displacement motorcycles, and the market demand is definitely different. According to the concept of consumer groups you mentioned, our products can only be sold in Look for opportunities in North America and Europe first. This is much more difficult than motorcycles.”
Lao Yang started to earn foreign exchange by starting a factory, and he became very interested in this information, plus Secretary Liu. This setback gave him a clear understanding of the concept of consumer groups.
The two chatted for a long time before Lao Yang watched Zhu Xuefeng leave. In any case, this small car project must first come up with suitable things and then consider the rest. As long as Dongsheng Company is willing Taking over the company will not be like Secretary Liu's, with big thunder and small rain. Dongsheng Company must find an opportunity to talk again, and try the truck project.
Zhu Xuefeng did not expect that Lao Yang would come up with the idea of letting Dongsheng Company try to export cars and trucks. This job is not easy to do. He just briefly discussed the difficulties with Lao Yang. In fact, the biggest problem is, The Hong Kong government is not blind. Last time it carried out a surprise inspection on the scooter project.
Small-displacement motorcycles are a side effect. Besides, they don’t have this kind of thing in their country, so the rebound is not big. But it will be different if the complete vehicle is exported from Xiangjiang. There is no automobile industry in Xiangjiang now, and this thing always It can't just appear out of thin air like the scooter project. This is the crystallization of the wisdom of modern industry. Dongsheng Company, which has only been established for two years, has this kind of ability. There is nothing fishy behind it. No one would believe it.
But Zhu Xuefeng decided to give it a try and let’s see if it works or not. At least it seems possible to sell it to the peninsula. Or, Zhu Xuefeng suddenly had an idea and thought of whether it is possible to operate in Jeddah City, which has sufficient goods. This is an excellent opportunity. springboard.
After his mind cleared up, he had a new idea. Zhu Xuefeng wanted to turn around and continue discussing with Lao Yang, but finally stopped. It was still early for the car project, so there was no need to talk about it now.
Today is Saturday again. Overtime work is no longer arranged for general positions in the steel rolling mill. Zhu Xuefeng returned to the compound. The two girls are not home today.
Now that Lou Xiao'e is married, Zhu Xuefeng is too embarrassed to ask Sha Zhu to help prepare dinner, but he often comes back to cook it himself, riding a small motorcycle very fast. As soon as he enters the outer courtyard, he sees a strange young woman entering. Went to the front yard, presumably someone’s relatives were visiting.
At this point, the younger siblings had already returned home from school and entered the front yard, just in time to see Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng coming from the backyard.
"Sister-in-law Yu." Zhu Xuefeng greeted, and Yu Li raised her head and smiled, which seemed a little reluctant.
"Big brother is back."
"Sister-in-law, let me tell you something, your matter is done." The good news made Yu Li a little bit groggy, and she covered her mouth with her hands in surprise. , asked in surprise after a while.
“Really? Really?”
Zhu Xuefeng looked at Yan Jiecheng who was silent and was a little surprised, but he still nodded.
"Sister-in-law, it's really done. I'm going to report for duty next Monday, but I've agreed to start working as a temporary worker first."
"I know, I know, big brother, Thank you, thank you so much..."
The good news about Po Tian made Yu Li a little incoherent. She wanted to grab Zhu Xuefeng's hand in excitement, but Zhu Xuefeng stepped aside without leaving any trace.
"Sister-in-law, it's all said and done. There is still one day tomorrow. You can arrange your family affairs and report to work the day after tomorrow. I have to go back to cook. See you later."
Watching Zhu Xuefeng turn and leave, Yu Li realized that this time the favor was owed. Now everyone's tacit understanding is that it will cost three hundred to find a temporary worker. Yu Li must be sure that this money He couldn't take it out, and besides, he probably didn't want it either. Looking at the man standing stupidly on one side, Yu Li said happily to Yan Jiecheng.
"Did you hear that? It's done, it's really done. I have to tell mom quickly."
Yan Jiecheng didn't seem as excited as Yu Li and said silently, "If you also Go to work. From now on, it will be difficult to rely on my mother alone to handle the family affairs. You have to find time to help me more."
Yu Li didn't think much about it and nodded, "Of course, it's all family affairs. , everyone has to help, hurry up, and make your parents happy."
Last time Zhu Xuefeng casually asked Yu Li about going to work, the third aunt was very concerned. Yu Li knew that her mother-in-law must be. She was supportive of her going to work, but the man's attitude was a bit weird. Yu Li didn't think much about it. She might be really worried that there were too many people in the family and her mother-in-law wouldn't be able to handle it all by herself.
This good news made the third uncle and his family very happy. The third uncle even took the initiative to have a small drink. His wife can also have an income. The days from now on will only become easier and easier. It will no longer be the case in the past few years when the whole family of six relied on His salary alone, even if he raised his age, was only a few dollars more per month, which could not fundamentally solve the problem. Although his son also went to work, the cost of getting married and adding another family still made him feel... It was quite difficult, but now it’s better, I have one more person to share the burden.
"Xiao Li, from now on I will give this salary to your mother and let her take care of it together. Our family's life will definitely become more and more prosperous as time goes by."
After a glass of wine, the three of them The uncle's face was slightly red, his eyes were shining, and his joy could be felt through the glass.
Yu Li was taken aback by her father-in-law's suggestion. The reason why she was looking for a place to work was because the couple would live alone in the future. How could they pay the salary? She reluctantly forced out a smile.
"Dad, this isn't appropriate. I've been bothering you with Chengdu for almost a year. I don't feel good about it. When the time comes, I'll get my salary and start the fire myself. Mom will be able to relax."
The third uncle's eyes were shrinking, but he still smiled and said, "You silly boy, the whole family talks about two different things and doesn't disturb anyone. They are all in the same yard. Of course, the whole family is harmonious. It's better to be angry together. If you two start fighting again, it will be troublesome. Those who don't know may think that you two are breaking up."
Yu Li asked her father-in-law to talk, but she was speechless and worried. , secretly glanced at her man, but Yan Jiecheng acted as if nothing was wrong and was only focusing on eating. Yu Li felt anxious and kicked the man under the table. The man then raised his head.
"Dad, this seems inappropriate. We are both married and I have paid my salary. If Yu Li also pays it, wouldn't it be in vain for both of us? This is not the same as Yu Li not having any classmates. Well, we still have no money in our pockets, so we can live together. I have to pay less for a while, otherwise, we will be at a loss."
"You kid, how can we get along with you? What is your father talking about? "When her son said this, the third aunt was not happy. What is a waste of money? If you say so, wouldn't it be a waste of money for you and your wife to raise four children?
"Boss, what you said doesn't make sense. We calculated it at the time. We calculated these months. You have to admit this."
The third uncle put down his chopsticks and looked at Yan Jiecheng, looking confident.
“I don’t think it’s because Yu Li has to pay her salary again. I shouldn’t have paid it in advance. That’s right.”
Yan Jiecheng also thinks that he is justified. Since he wants to say it, Let's just talk about it, and don't care if my father is looking at me.
"There is something you have missed. We haven't asked you to make up for your wife's living expenses this year. In the future, if we live together together, will we also have to make up for the living expenses? If you make up for it for one year, you Have you ever thought about it? "
"That's right, brother, now that my parents are here, it's not a big deal to start a fire separately. It would make people laugh even if I say it." Nose expressed his opinion. He is also seventeen this year and is about to face the college entrance examination. He has a lot to think about. This time he will stand by his parents without hesitation.
"Sister-in-law, just stay and eat with us. I like to eat the food you cook. I am tired of my mother's cooking after eating it for so many years."
Yu Li She has been here for a year, and although she has received a lot of education, her father-in-law's words today still shocked her. She had had nothing to do for a year, and her father-in-law's words made her feel chilly. This family must The mother-in-law, who had always been considerate, didn't say anything at this moment, which made her panic even more, so she had to show Yan Jiedi a helpless smile.
"Dad, let Yu Li and I go back and sum up this matter."
Although it was unexpected, he was not surprised when his father asked for his wife's living expenses for one year. , his father has always been so shrewd, this will hit him by surprise, Yan Jiecheng will be very confused and not in the mood to think.
Seeing the man speaking, Yu Li could only stop speaking and accept it silently.
The good atmosphere became depressed and silent. The whole family finished their meal with their own thoughts and looked at their son and daughter-in-law leaving. There was no smile on the third uncle's face, and the hint of drunkenness just now disappeared without a trace.
"Master, this matter..."
"Don't worry about it, just keep it like this. Their wings haven't hardened yet, so they can't fly, but sooner or later they will break up. Let’s talk about it when the time comes. Let’s take care of the second child first. The exam is not due in two months. If he fails, he will have to find a job for him.” (End of Chapter)
