Chapter 213 This is not a game
Cui Changjia has already made plans for next year. The first is to maintain the existing business in the factory, the second is to vigorously expand the office furniture business, and the third is to make panel-based finished household furniture.
It goes without saying that the frameworks for one and two have been set up, and the business personnel are already in place. The main thing is the third one.
It turned out that the Cui family made solid wood furniture. Both Cui Wenquan and Cui Xiuyuan did not approve of panel furniture. Cui Changjia was afraid that his father and elder brother would not agree to make panel household furniture. If they disagreed, Cui Changjia would not be able to do it well no matter how hard he tried.
But when she proposed it, neither Cui Wenquan nor Cui Xiuyuan objected. With millions of foreign debts lying around, did the Cui family have any other choice?
Cui Changjia didn't expect it to be approved so smoothly. She said, "Once it is established, the factory will have to recruit a large number of people, including carpenters, installers, and draftsmen."
"I'll take care of this," Cui Xiuyuan said, "You just need to do the external work well. The news that our factory can pay wages on time in the past two months and can give out year-end bonuses and holiday gifts has spread. More than one person has come to inquire about our factory's recruitment next year, so I think personnel should not be a problem."
"Then we may not have enough space for offices and dormitories."
Cui Xiuyuan said, "Try to squeeze in as much as possible. This factory is rented by us. If the investment cost is too high, it will not be suitable."
The land is not yours. If someone decides not to rent it and builds a house on it, you won’t be able to move away in the end, which is a waste.
"Jia Jia, the situation will be better next year. Talk to the people at the cotton station. If it doesn't work out, we can buy it," Cui Wenquan said. "This land is not small and not too far from the city. The price is reasonable."
Cui Changjia nodded, "Dad, I think so too. We will start working on this in June or July next year. If the momentum is the same as this year, I don't think there will be too much difficulty."
After all, it is your own ground, so you will feel more at ease using it.
"When the time comes, ask your uncle Chang to help raise some money," Cui Wenquan said, "Xiuyuan, contact our previous customers next year to see if there are any high-end furniture that they want to customize. If the wood in the warehouse is made into finished products and sold, it can earn at least hundreds of thousands of yuan."
When Cui Chengze and his friends came into the office covered in sweat, Cui Wenquan and his two grandsons had already decided on the next year's plan!
Cui Chengze turned on the computer and played online games with the three of them in the office. Cui Wenquan was annoyed by the noise and asked Cui Changjia to accompany him out for a run.
Without a job, I don't have to think about anything, and my life becomes leisurely all of a sudden.
Cui Changjia goes to bed late and gets up late every day. He doesn't comb his hair or wash his face. He just puts on his slippers and runs to the office to learn how to play online games with Cui Chengze.
She opened an account on Journey to the West and played the role of Little Dragon Girl. Every day, she took her pet to fight monsters outside the city, picked up some small items, and then sold them in various stores in the city to exchange for small items, and then went to level up and fight monsters.
This game requires spending money on a game card, but Cui Changjia is very stingy in this regard and she won't spend money on a game card. So after playing for two or three days, Cui Changjia's Little Dragon Girl is still at level nine.
Cui Chengze couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to give his trumpet to Cui Changjia.
Cui Changjia doesn't want to, "I just like playing level nine."
"You can't even enter a level 9 dungeon, what's the point of playing this?"
Seeing this, Cui Xiuyuan asked Cui Chengze to go to another room to play so as not to disturb Cui Changjia, because his sister was not playing a game at all.
When his sister was playing games, there was no light in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was wasting her time.
When he was not playing games, Cui Changjia would move a stool to the glass-enclosed corridor and sit there, with a cup of tea at hand. He would do nothing but bask in the sun and stare blankly outside, and he could be in a daze for half a day.
Chang Ying was obviously a guest, but she was like the opposite of Cui Changjia. Cui Changjia was either playing games or daydreaming, doing nothing, but Chang Ying stayed in the kitchen almost the whole day, either helping Jiang Hongying and Aunt Zhang cook and make pastries, or making fire. She was more like a member of the Cui family.
Days passed by in the game, in the daily necessities of life. On the morning of New Year's Eve, Jiang Hongying packed a lot of things, including steamed buns, stewed pork elbows, ribs, etc. She asked Cui Changjia to load them into the car and send Chang Ying back. Chang Ying joked, "Auntie, you don't need to pack so much. Just pack enough for three meals. I'll be back tomorrow afternoon."
"Nonsense," Jiang Hongying said with a smile, "Let your dad and the others eat something too." She felt sorry for Chang Ying, and said, "Go back and eat and drink. Just pretend you don't hear what others say. I'll let Jiajia pick you up after dinner tomorrow afternoon."
No matter how much she treats Chang Ying as her own daughter, Chang Ying's surname is also Chang, so it would be more appropriate for her to go back home to celebrate the New Year.
Cui Changjia wore an old cotton-padded jacket, had his hair loose, and wore old cotton-padded shoes made by Aunt Zhang. He drove a broken van to pick up Chang Ying.
They soon arrived at Chang Ying's house, and Cui Changjia helped her take down her things and was about to leave.
Chang Ying grabbed her and said, "Why are you leaving? Play for a while before leaving."
"Forget it," Cui Changjia said leisurely, relaxed, "I don't want to see your stepmother. Just stay here and I'll pick you up tomorrow afternoon."
Chang Ying let her go and said, "Go slowly on the road."
"I know, don't worry."
Cui Changjia got in the car and drove away slowly. Chang Ying turned around and rang the doorbell. After a while, someone came to open the door. It was Chang Xiao.
Chang Xiao came up and asked, "Why are you here?"
What the little girl said was "Why are you here?", not "You're back."
Chang Ying looked at the thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, and her heart was extremely sad. This was the little girl she had watched grow up. In the cold winter, she squatted by the water pipe outside to wash her diapers, and her hands were frozen like carrots...
When Chang Xiao saw Chang Ying looking at her like that, she was so scared that she shrank her head and dared not speak. She turned around and ran into the courtyard.
Chang Ying brought some things into the house. Zheng Yuehong was busy wearing an apron. When she saw Chang Ying coming back, she said indifferently, "Finally you're here. Come and help me cook."
During the Chinese New Year, the aunt and the nanny were on holiday. In previous years, Chang Ying cooked almost all of the New Year's Eve dinner. Zheng Yuehong only sprinkled some chopped green onions and coriander at the end and served the meal. This year, Chang Ying was not here, and Zheng Yuehong was left alone to work. She became more and more annoyed when she saw Chang Ying coming back, and she instinctively breathed a sigh of relief.
Chang Ying put the things she brought from Cui's house into the kitchen and asked, "Where's my dad?"
If Cui Changjia hadn't said that Zheng Yuehong shouldn't get the advantage, she wouldn't have wanted to say a word to her.
"Your dad is upstairs," Zheng Yuehong saw Chang Ying trying to go upstairs and shouted, "Where are you going?"
