Chapter 72 Departure to Su City
Zhang Fengming burst into tears the moment he saw Cui Wenquan. He grabbed Cui Wenquan's hand and said, "Boss Cui, I shouldn't have left. Why are you like this?"
It was embarrassing for a fifty-year-old man to cry in front of everyone, but no one laughed at him.
Ergang came over with his injured hand and said with a grin, "Old Zhang, stop throwing away your golden beans. Our President Cui is now fine."
Zhang Fengming saw Ergang's hand and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with your hand?"
"Well, it won't work without you watching over me. The chainsaw hit my hand."
Zhang Fengming frowned and said, "You have been reckless before, and you still can't change your bad habits!"
Cui Xiuyuan said, "Mr. Zhang, Auntie, you must be tired from the journey. Let's go eat first. It happens that Haitao is here today, so we can have a reunion dinner."
As soon as Cui Xiuyuan called, Haitao came.
Cui Changjia took a look at the young man and his first impression was that "this young man is quite shy" and he hoped that he could work hard here.
Cui Xiuyuan had already packed up and was waiting for Zhang Fengming and his wife to arrive. He even asked Sister Xiang to come over and help cook a table of dishes, and even Jiang Hongying came with Xiaobao.
Roast chicken, braised pork, steamed carp, braised prawns. Basically, they are all staple dishes. This is the best meal I have had since the fire.
Cui Xiuyuan also prepared white wine, but he and Cui Wenquan couldn't drink it. Ergang also couldn't drink because his hand was injured. Haitao didn't know how to drink either. Only Dagang accompanied Zhang Fengming to drink a few cups.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Fengming heard that they were unable to produce enough, so he wanted to go to the shed to work without stopping after dinner, but was stopped by Cui Xiuyuan. No matter how urgent it was, there was no point in spending one night tonight.
Zhang Fengming came back, and Cui Xiuyuan's tension suddenly relaxed.
That night, Cui Changjia sent Jiang Hongying and Xiang Sao back home and stayed there directly.
On the way, when Cui Changjia and Jiang Hongying were talking about Zhang Fengming's family, Jiang Hongying was surprised, "Are his two children both adopted sons and daughters?"
Cui Changjia was even more surprised, "It's been so many years, and you and my dad didn't know?"
"If Lao Zhang hadn't told us, how would we have known?" Jiang Hongying felt sorry for Zhang Fengming and his wife. "Lao Zhang has worked for us for so many years, he must have saved hundreds of thousands of yuan. Now, someone has taken away all his money."
"It's good that he sees it clearly now. When Zhang Gong and his family are old and his two children deceive him again, won't it be even worse?"
That's true. Mr. and Mrs. Zhang are only fifty years old now. They are in good health and can still get by. If they are ten years older, there will be no turning back, right?
It was already late when Cui Changjia came back. After washing up, she went to rest quickly. When she turned over in bed, she felt like her waist was about to break.
It takes seven or eight hours to go back and forth. Even a robot would be smoking after driving for seven or eight hours, let alone a human.
Jiang Hongying came out with a quilt and heard Cui Changjia's groaning, "Jiajia, what's wrong?"
Cui Changjia lay motionless on the bed, "It's okay, Mom, why don't you go to bed?"
"I'll add another quilt for you. It's very cold at night now." Jiang Hongying felt sorry for her daughter. "You must be tired."
"It's okay. I'm not too tired." Cui Changjia supported herself and sat up. Her long hair fell on her shoulders. She reached out to Jiang Hongying and said, "Give it to me."
Jiang Hongying walked over and spread the quilt on Cui Changjia's bed, "Mom, let me give you a massage?"
"No, no," Cui Changjia said quickly, "I'll just need a night's rest. I'm not that delicate."
Jiang Hongying went to close all the curtains that were not fully closed, then turned around and said, "Go to sleep, there is nothing to do anyway, sleep in tomorrow." "No, you can wake me at 6:30, I still have to deliver goods tomorrow."
Then take a tour of the market in the state capital.
On her way back yesterday, she received three calls, all asking her to deliver goods. One of them was from a new customer. Cui Changjia had visited that customer before, but the boss didn't want him at the time. Now, seeing that others are selling well, he is jealous.
Jiang Hongying touched her head and said, "Mom knows, go to sleep, kid."
Cui Changjia lay down. Jiang Hongying turned off the light and went out silently.
In the darkness, the woman with gray hair had tears all over her face.
She is a mother, how can she not see that her child is lying to her? Unfortunately, no one can help her share the burden now, so she has to bear it by herself.
Jiang Hongying originally planned to get up quietly the next morning to let Cui Changjia sleep a little longer, but she didn't expect that when she got up at six o'clock, she was no longer on the bed.
At six o'clock, Cui Changjia was almost at the factory.
Although Ergang injured his hand, the production progress was much faster with the addition of Zhang Fengming and Haitao.
Especially Zhang Fengming, his skills are really amazing. He finished screwing in three tables and Da just finished one.
Before, Cui Xiuyuan and his team could only produce four to five hundred tables a day at most. But on the first day after Zhang Fengming came, they produced nearly a hundred small folding tables.
Although Aunt Zhang looks a little rough, she is very hardworking. She is responsible for buying groceries, cooking, and cleaning the factory. She raised four old hens that she brought from her hometown directly in the open space in the south, and collected eggs the next day.
The chickens were simply not killed. Not only that, Cui Wenquan also asked Cui Changjia to buy a few egg-laying chickens and raise them together.
The next day, the one thousand small folding tables that Choi Seung-taek requested were gathered.
It’s not that Cui Changjia couldn’t pull her van away, but she was worried that it was too heavy and might break down on the way, so she rented a small truck, had breakfast, and headed for Sucheng, the city where Cui Chengze was.
Ergang's hand was injured and he couldn't work, so Cui Xiuyuan simply let him go with him.
Sucheng is five or six hours' drive from the provincial capital, so the regional difference is quite large.
In her previous life, Cui Changjia had business dealings in Sucheng, so she was very familiar with it. In addition, as one of the earlier economically developed cities, Sucheng had a better economic level than the state capital, so it looked more prosperous than the state capital.
Ergang was very excited along the way. He had never been to a place farther than the provincial capital in his life.
Cui Changjia didn't ask Ergang to come here to work for her. As soon as he arrived in Sucheng, she found the most famous garden attraction in Sucheng and dropped him off. She gave him a hundred yuan and asked him to take a walk around. When he was done, she asked him to take a taxi to Cui Chengze's school.
Ergang felt very embarrassed. His hand was injured and he couldn't work anyway. When he arrived in Suzhou, his boss went to work while he went out to play. How could this be acceptable?
Cui Changjia told him not to be embarrassed and just go and have fun. He could work well when he was in a good mood. Cui Changjia was not going back today. She almost collapsed from exhaustion after picking up Zhang Fengming. If she went back and forth again today, she would be exhausted to death.
Cui Chengze had been waiting for Cui Changjia for a long time. Not only was he waiting, but several of his classmates were accompanying him.
