Chapter 257: Establishing a Design Department
During the lunch break at work the next day, Shen Meng took the information to the textile factory. After meeting Li Qianqian, he handed over the information and also reported on the matter of installing electric wires in the village.

It is very necessary for the factory to install electrical wires, and she also wants to install one at home. Her children have to put their faces on the table when they do their homework every night. If this continues for a long time, her three school-age children will have to wear glasses.

"Your suggestion is very good, Sister Meng. Look at these factories in the county, which one has no electricity? I have already met with reporter Fang Yan from the provincial capital. She said that the newspaper will be published in four or five days after typesetting. She said that this article will not only be published in our provincial capital newspaper, but also in Haicheng, Yangcheng, and Shangjing. As long as a newspaper adopts it, our hair flower factory will be noticed. I dare not imagine how popular our factory will be in the future."

Shen Meng: “.”

Isn’t this just casting a wide net?

"Okay, this matter is the same as what I discussed with the village cadres before. Let's wait until John pays the balance before reporting it. Hey, Director Li, our director is still an infant and needs everyone's support to grow better. You are in the county, and you need to show up for many relationships!"

When Li Qianqian heard what Shen Meng said, she straightened her back immediately. She had been afraid that Shen Meng was too capable and that she knew nothing and would be a drag on her. She didn't expect that she would be so important in Shen Meng's heart.

"Sister Meng, don't worry. You don't have to worry about the county town. I will take care of everything. The supplies from the textile factory will be delivered on time. I will definitely not hold the factory back."

Shen Meng looked at her and seemed to be hesitant to speak, so Li Qianqian grabbed her hand.

"Sister, if you have anything to say, just tell me. There is nothing we cannot talk about between sisters."

"Okay, then I'll tell you straight. When I first discussed the cooperation with John, I promised that I would give you a new style of hair ornaments every time an order was placed. So I wanted you to learn design. It would be best if you could go to the provincial capital or other cities to see if there are any new styles of fabrics. Especially in Guangzhou, which is close to the port city, there are a lot of new things there, but they are not introduced to us until a while later. Also, I suggested that you learn design because I thought it was an important department and it would be best if you could take charge of it yourself."

Li Qianqian's eyes lit up after hearing this. During these days as the factory director, she was always struggling with what she needed to do. She even consulted her father-in-law, who was also the factory director, for this. However, all his advice was just empty talk, and nothing of it was actually useful. After hearing what Shen Meng said, she felt that she had a lot of things to do and even did not have enough time.

Head flowers are something that make people beautiful, and this thing is not impossible to replicate. If their factory can get orders to earn foreign exchange, people from other places will follow suit, so having a design department is very necessary.

On the one hand, Shen Meng was doing this to meet the needs of the factory, and on the other hand, to reduce her own burden. She had so many things to do every day that she had no time to enjoy life. After solving this problem, she must reward herself with a Hollington steak with Bordeaux red wine and some dessert tonight.

Ok?
In the evening, bring some small cakes to the kids at home and say they were sent by someone outside.

Before getting off work in the evening, Fu Meili took out the salary slip and distributed it to everyone. Shen Meng looked at the thirty-three yuan on her salary slip and felt very happy. The salary in this era is really worth spending, and there is no housing pressure. It is really comfortable!

"Everyone will go to the finance department to line up to collect their wages. Everyone has done a great job this month, and the company has given everyone an extra 20 kilograms of food coupons and some other receipts. Work hard."

After Fu Meili finished her polite words, she went to the finance office first.

Shen Meng looked at her with some envy in her heart. People who are directors are different. They go to work at 10 o'clock every day and get off work at around 2 or 3 o'clock in the evening. Leaders are different.

Shen Meng felt that her salary was heavy. This was her first salary since she came to this era. Well, she should celebrate it. There was no one on Uncle Guai's ox cart except the three of them. Shen Meng took out two big apples and two bananas from her bag and handed one to each of them.

"eat."

"Hey, where did they come from? These bananas are so big. They are hard to buy in this month!" Wu Xianglan said curiously. She took the banana under her nose and sniffed it hard, then put it into her bag.

Yu Xueli was the same. She looked at it again and again but couldn't bear to eat it.

"Eat it if I tell you to. I have other things here. If you want to love your children, you should love yourselves first. Look at the way you two look. Eat it. Eating more fruits is good for your health."

Shen Meng said this and took out four steamed cakes from her bag and handed them to them.

"Take this back and give it to the children. It's delicious and easy to hide. It won't be easily discovered. Xianglan, stop thinking about your two children and think more about yourself."

Wu Xianglan's eyes reddened and her heart felt a little sour. She took the cake and put it in her bag. She thought about the banana again and again. Under Shen Meng's direct gaze, she peeled it and took a bite. In an instant, the sweet, fragrant and soft taste spread in her mouth. It was so delicious that she felt like she was floating.

Yu Xueli paused and ate the banana very obediently. The apple was big and red, and looked delicious. It was perfect for the little girls at home.

Uncle Guai was sitting in the front with his nose twitching and looking very greedy.

Arriving at the village, Shen Meng paid her fare and went up to Uncle Guai and said, "Uncle, I left some for you and Auntie. I put it under the thatch. Remember to bring it back home."

"You kid, why are you giving it to me, old man!"

"Hehehe, when we were eating just now, I saw you drooling. Please take it and eat it. We will be a family soon. Why are you so polite?"

Uncle Guai snorted awkwardly after hearing what Shen Meng said. Shen Meng laughed and took Yu Xueli away.

On the way home, Wu Xianglan still walked the fastest. She was afraid that Lu Jiahe was at home. If so, her bag would be searched and the two children would not be able to eat the good things hidden in it. Then they would have a quarrel and scare the children.

"Seeing her like this every day, I just feel like it's pointless. It's better for me to live alone!"

"She hasn't thought it through. It's only a matter of time before she becomes single. Here, you have 80 yuan. Keep it. There are fruits in here, apples and bananas. These are given to you individually as a reward. I have a lot more in my bag. I'll send some to Xiaolong later so he can have a taste, too."

Yu Xueli looked at the big bag Shen Meng was carrying. No wonder she staggered when getting on the car today. It turned out that there were too many things in the big package.
