Chapter 280 Bitter Fruit
This time, Cui Changjia did not refuse and agreed on the spot.
I went back and told my father and brother about it, but they didn't say anything. After all, their factory was small and the workload wasn't large. No matter how expensive the design fee was, it would only be about 10,000 or 20,000 yuan at most, so they couldn't owe me a big favor.
The current layout of the factory is that both offices and dormitories face north and south, with offices in the front and dormitories in the back, one row in each direction.
Cui Changjia and his colleagues discussed it first and decided that the location would remain unchanged, only the size, the interior layout of the house, the location of the pipes, etc. would need to be changed. The building did not need to have a gorgeous appearance, as long as it was convenient and practical.
The designer is not very old, probably around 25 or 26 years old. His surname is Lei and his full name is Lei Qi.
Reggie is very short and thin, wears glasses, and doesn't seem to be very talkative.
Because he was recommended by Zhou Qingyan, the Cui family did not dare to have any objection because he was young and ugly. Anyway, they respected him very much.
Lei Qi first inspected the site, asked Cui's family what they thought, and then said to them, "If the location remains unchanged, there will be a big problem. The office building and dormitory will have to be built two stories high. The higher the building, the larger the shadow area will be. The dormitory building will be blocked, and the lighting will definitely be poor, which will definitely affect accommodation."
Cui Wenquan values his employees the most. As soon as this question was raised, he denied their idea.
Then Reich gave his advice.
His suggestion was to move the office building forward, change the orientation of the dormitory that originally faced north and south to face east and west, and convert the open space opposite into a two-story cafeteria with dining on the first floor and the second floor as a cultural room for employees. The open space between the cafeteria and the office building could be used to install sports equipment, and an outdoor dining area could also be built for employees to use.
After all these are built, the canteen in front can be demolished. In this way, when you enter the factory and look to the right, you will see a neat, unobstructed office building, which will be more comfortable psychologically.
Reitch's idea was unanimously approved by everyone.
Cui Changjia specially called Zhou Qingyan to praise him. After a long time, they found out that Lei Qi, who was not good-looking, charged according to square meters.
There were a lot of things to do, but he just picked the most important ones to do. After finalizing the design plan, Cui Changjia went to find Sister Yao.
When she was in Jinzhou, she called Sister Yao to arrange a meeting time. Sister Yao answered the phone and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Cui Changjia, I can't come." Then she hung up the phone and could not get through to her again.
Cui Changjia really wanted to know why. After all, he had told her before that she seemed quite willing to come.
It didn't matter if I went there. After asking, I found out that Sister Yao was in the hospital.
It's not a disease, it's an injury.
When the money was being divided, for some unknown reason Sister Yao got into a conflict with several of the employees below her, and someone beat Sister Yao, causing her multiple injuries and a fractured left arm, for which she just had surgery.
Cui Changjia immediately asked Sister Yao’s colleague for her address, bought some things and went to the hospital to visit her.
Sister Yao was admitted to a small hospital with not very good conditions. There was only one large ward for the entire orthopedic department. When Cui Changjia went there, it was noisy inside and a group of people were arguing and almost fighting.
If Cui Changjia hadn't asked the nurse for Sister Yao's bed number, she wouldn't have been able to find who Sister Yao was even if she went to look for her on her own.
Because half of Sister Yao’s head was wrapped in gauze.
When Cui Changjia went over, she was half leaning against the head of the bed, looking outside with a dull look in her eyes. There was a cup of water on the cabinet beside the bed, and nothing else, as cold as she was.
"Sister Yao."
Cui Changjia walked over, called out softly, and put the things he brought on the bedside.
She had inquired about it. Miss Yao's real name was Yao Junhua. She was divorced. Her son followed her ex-husband and her daughter followed her. She was now in college. However, it seemed that her daughter didn't have a good relationship with her and usually didn't come back. Now she was in the hospital and no one came to see her. She looked really miserable.
Yao Junhua came back to his senses and saw that it was Cui Changjia. He frowned and asked, "Why are you here? Didn't I say I wouldn't go to your place?"
"I heard you were in the hospital, so I came to see you."
Yao Junhua looked guilty, "No need to look, just go."
"Sister Yao," Cui Changjia was sure she would not leave. She pulled a stool over and sat down and asked, "Did you know that I spent too much money on the land at the cotton station?"
Yao Junhua's expression changed. "You already know?"
Cui Changjia nodded, "Don't worry, I'm not here to question you, I just want to know the truth."
Yao Junhua smiled bitterly, "At that time, someone wanted to buy land from us, and the price was 2.6 million, and they were very determined. At that time, we had a contract, so I asked you first. Later, when we completed the formalities and divided the money, I realized that I was cheated."
So that's how it is. Yao Junhua didn't even need to explain further, Cui Changjia already knew why.
Cui Changjia added, "If I don't buy the land, that person will lower the price on your side, and the employees below will make a fuss, and the price of the land will go down, right? Or, that person is not really interested in buying the land, but is just trying to stir up trouble."
Yao Junhua smiled bitterly, "The most hateful thing is that you said you wanted to wait a while before paying, but I refused to give in at all."
This is what she has always felt guilty about.
"So, now you not only feel guilty, but also very upset. You took great pains to consider the employees, but you didn't expect that someone among the employees was a traitor and colluded with others to cheat you, right?"
Yao Junhua looked at Cui Changjia and said, "I didn't expect that you are young but you know people's hearts very well."
Cui Changjia saw through her.
She clearly had the opportunity to be transferred that year, but for the sake of the employees at the cotton station, she refused to leave.
Two million six hundred thousand was enough to cover the wages owed by the cotton station, and there was even a surplus. She did not let anyone suffer, but in return she received accusations, ridicule, irony and betrayal!
When she was pinned to the ground and beaten, she was so desperate that she even thought it would be best if she never woke up.
Cui Changjia said, "Sister Yao, you don't have to feel guilty. To us, you are our benefactor."
Then she talked a lot to Yao Junhua. She talked about her family's difficulties and her grudges with Cao Kun without hiding anything.
She came today to help Yao Junhua resolve his worries. Whether she goes to her factory or not, she is a benefactor to their family.
The extra spending of hundreds of thousands of dollars was the result of Cui Changjia's own actions, and Yao Junhua should not be made to bear the consequences.
"Sister Yao, the extra money you spent has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to feel guilty about it. It's meaningless for you to continue staying at the cotton station now, and it's difficult for you to transfer to another unit at your age, so don't have to have any grudges in your heart, just come to our side."
Yao Junhua was so shocked that he couldn't calm down for a long time. "Is your factory the original Cui's Furniture?"
