Chapter 74 The Weaver Girl
Xinlan's stability and diligence gave Zhang Jie an idea. This idea did not come up just today, but he had this idea a long time ago. It was just because there was no suitable candidate, so he did not seriously consider it. And now, the suitable person is
At that moment, Zhang Jie felt that it was time and had to think about it. He sat at his desk, holding a cigarette between his fingers, drinking tea and thinking about his thoughts.
Zhang Jie's job is a casual type of work in the locomotive depot, and it is not very strict in terms of time. But the more it is like this, the more he pays attention. He knows the bad nature of human character. If you are an ordinary worker, you are not afraid of being punished.
He will think it's normal whether you arrive late or leave early during the day, and he can laugh at your jokes and socialize with you. But once you are different from ordinary people, do business or do other things better than him, it will make people jealous, and you will suddenly feel jealous.
Thousands of pairs of eyes are staring at you. Even if they don't say it clearly, they will use various excuses and methods to block you, lest you stand out from them, and even wish you would lose immediately. But because of this, he pays too much attention to you.
It was a hardship for himself and even more for his wife Chen Ping. The two seemed like a couple, but they lived like a Cowherd and a Weaver Girl. It was rare for a family to sit together and have a complete meal, which made him very distressed. He thought about it early on
He can find someone to take over his role in the store, so that the family can have time to reunite. Now, Xinlan is here, and through observation, he feels that this woman is completely qualified, but this requires Chen Ping's permission.
After all, this is a family business and there is no room for sloppiness. Zhang Jie thought about it for a long time and decided not to delay it anymore. He told Chen Ping about it when he handed over his shift in the evening to see what she would think!
With Zhang Jie thinking like this, he finally waited until the time to get off work. He drove his little Feihu car and went home for a walk. After handing the child over to his parents, he didn't bother to eat at home, so he drove to the store again.
The business in the store was good, and Chen Ping and a group of people were busy. Zhang Jie stood outside, thinking about what to say to his wife while waiting. He saw that Chen Ping had been busy for a while, and then came in to look for Chen Ping. Chen Ping looked at
Zhang Jie arrived and without saying a word, he took off his work clothes and left work.
Zhang Jie saw it and hurriedly stopped him and said, "Chen Ping, let me tell you something."
When Chen Ping heard about it, she quickly asked: "What's going on?"
Zhang Jie said a little: "Chen Ping, should we close the store?"
Chen Ping didn't expect him to say this. She became anxious when she heard it and said hurriedly: "Why? The store is closed and you let the whole family drink the northwest wind!"
Zhang Jie said: "No reason! I just want to ask you what is the purpose of making money?"
Chen Ping didn't expect her to say that, and she didn't know what he wanted to say, so she watched in silence to see what he wanted to say.
Seeing that he remained silent, Zhang Jie continued: "Isn't the purpose of making money just for enjoyment and to improve the quality of life? But, look, what kind of life are we living now? I'd say we've earned enough money.
, why don’t we just close it. Besides, if we close the store, we won’t be able to support you with my salary!”
After hearing this, Chen Ping curled her lips and said, "With your salary, you can support yourself, not only your family! What do you mean?"
Zhang Jie looked at Chen Ping, then looked around. Perhaps because he was worried about affecting others, he lowered his voice and said: "It's not that I don't want to do it. Look at how we have been working in this restaurant since we were in the factory. But look at how we live at home."
What a day! I earn a lot of money, but what’s the use! All day long we are like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, you come and I go, I come and you go, do you think we still look like husband and wife! Why do I feel like that?
Just like a monk, I can't be intimate with you even once I'm an adult. What's the point of doing this business? I make money just for enjoyment, and this enjoyment is nothing!"
After hearing this, Chen Ping couldn't help laughing out loud and said: "I thought it was for some reason, but it turns out it's because of this matter that I'm so worried about you. Isn't it a shame that I'm still thinking about this matter?"
Zhang Jie said: "What's the shame? Haven't you read the newspaper? The happiness index we talk about all day long is one of them. You said we just have to spend the whole day grinding our butts to earn enough money!"
Chen Ping was about to leave, but Zhang Jie stopped her from chatting casually. She guessed that Zhang Jie had something to say, so she asked Zhang Jie: "You don't have anything to say, right? Don't
If you are making innuendo here and there with a hammer and a hammer, if you have something to say, just say it!"
Hearing what Chen Ping said, Zhang Jie put together his thoughts. When Chen Ping heard this, his thoughts merged with mine, so he said: "I have thought about this a long time ago, but I just didn't think maturely. In a
I don’t know if you will agree or not, so I haven’t had time to tell you yet. It’s just right for you to bring it up now. If we don’t win, we’ll start doing this tomorrow. What do you think!?”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jie hurriedly said: "Of course. Just tell me how you plan to start tomorrow?"
Chen Ping listened to Zhang Jie's question, thought for a moment and said: "This matter is very simple. You know what happened a few days ago when we brought in people. Originally, two people were enough, but Cao Pang came for three at a time, and now Cao Pang is
She came out and had nothing to do all day. You know her character, she is a fierce general when charging into battle, but she can't hold back the battle while commanding from a tent, so she was so anxious that she had nothing to do. Two days ago, she even asked me to ask for help.
Give her some work. Now that you tell me, we can arrange it like this: starting from tomorrow, I will take care of the many things during the day, and let Sister Li take care of the less things at night. Cao Fat will return to her post, and Xiao Jiang will go and stand up for Sister Li.
For your position, Sister Li will only work the night shift starting tomorrow, covering your role, so you will be liberated. You no longer have to work during the day and stay up late at night. Everything else is running normally. What do you think?"
When Zhang Jie heard this, he was filled with admiration. He didn't expect that his wife would arrange this matter so seamlessly. But when he thought about it, he was still worried about the accounts, so he asked Chen Ping again: "Everything you said is easy to explain, but this account
What do you do about the problem?”
Chen Ping thought for a while and said: "As the saying goes, don't be suspicious of people you use. Now that we have this idea, don't worry. After all, we have been doing this for so long. What kind of business we do every day depends on how much food we produce and how much food we bring in."
There are bills coming and going in the account. The only thing I can’t count is the drinks at the stall outside, but I can get a rough idea of how much a barrel sells. Don’t worry, there won’t be any problems!”
Zhang Jie felt relieved when he heard that Chen Ping was so confident and urged Chen Ping to leave.
In a blink of an eye, the next day came. Chen Ping was thinking that Zhang Jie still had to go to work, so she came to the store early to replace him. After finishing what she was doing, she came outside and saw that Xinlan happened to be on duty, so she called Xinlan.
In the room, I told her my thoughts. Xinlan was alone, and it didn't matter what shift she worked in. But when she heard that she was asked to manage the night shift, she felt a little worried.
I was sorry for the kindness of Chen Ping and his wife, so she told Chen Ping her worries and refused. After hearing this, Chen Ping understood her worries and hurriedly comforted Xin Lan and said: "Sister Li, don't worry!
There’s nothing to worry about in terms of management. As long as we stay on track and do business, nothing will happen. Besides, if you work the night shift, you’ll have time during the day, so it’ll be more convenient to handle relocation and other matters!”
Xinlan heard what Chen Ping said and knew the good intentions of Chen Ping and his wife. Thinking that the two of them were helping to buy gifts and pay more wages for their own sake, it would be very ignorant if she didn't agree. So, she didn't
