Taking advantage of her free time when making scented tea, she picked two more large pots of flower petals, washed them and dried them, thinking of taking them to the county town tomorrow to make some rose flower jam and save them for snacks.
On the other side, Li Jingming suddenly appeared in the brick and tile factory, which shocked Zhao Wenhu and others.
If I remember correctly, the boss has been in Shanghai for almost a month.
At this time, everyone in the brick and tile factory was very orderly and busy with their own tasks.
When Zhao Wenhu saw Li Jingming coming back, he smiled from ear to ear. He simply threw away the hoe in his hand, grabbed his vest and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and walked towards Li Jingming.
When the villagers saw Li Jingming coming back, they all said hello.
As soon as Li Jingming walked away, everyone started talking in low voices.
"I heard from Wang Ying that a young man from Jingming went to Shanghai. He said he wanted to buy some machinery and set up a furniture factory in the county town."
"Yes, my grandpa is a craftsman, so making furniture has fulfilled Mr. Li's wish."
"Have you noticed that since Yang Lina changed, this Jingming young man has become like a fairy? His legs have healed, he has become energetic, and he has become so rich."
"Who says it's not the case? If Luo Xiaoyan had not disliked poverty and loved wealth and married Li Jingming, she would be the one enjoying the blessings now."
"Yes, please don't say that. If Luo Xiaoyan is really so lucky, she can enjoy it even if she marries anyone. In the end, they still have no fate."
"That's what you said. If you look at Yang Lina, you will live up to your expectations, and she will become like a flower.
At first, one of them was lame and no one wanted to marry him, and the other was unruly and sloppy and no one dared to marry him. In the blink of an eye, the two of them changed so fast, it was like a dream."
"Who says it's not the case, but to get to where we are today, we have to endure hardships."
"Anyway, if you want to be distinguished in front of others, you have to suffer behind the scenes.
This kind of crime is not something that ordinary people like us can bear. You should all work hard so that you can eat fine food three meals a day."
"In this case, I have to thank the couple. Good people will always be rewarded."
Several women talked for a long time, and then they stopped thinking and started doing the work at hand.
Luo Xiaoyan, who was not far away, saw Li Jingming's back, and her heart couldn't help but ache, but soon, this feeling disappeared completely.
It was because I was blind back then that I ended up where I am today.
However, after she figured it out, she would not regret it.
It belongs to you, even if you throw it away, sooner or later it will come back to you.
It shouldn't be yours, even if you fight hard and exhaust your efforts, it will not belong to you in the end.
Luo Xiaoyan raised her head and looked at the fiery sky above her head, as if she could see her son's smiling face.
She raised the corners of her mouth, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and continued her work.
Li Jingming was not idle either. He walked around the brick and tile factory and saw that the brick and tile factory was well taken care of by his younger brother and the others. He smiled with relief.
"Brother, you are back. This is the latest ledger. Check it out."
In front of Zhao Wenhu and Zhang Kaikai, Li Jingcheng handed the account book in his hand to his elder brother with a look of anticipation on his face.
The so-called ledger refers to the number of bricks produced every day and the detailed records of entries and exits.
Behind each day's detailed records are the signatures of three people.
They knew very well that although they had shares in the factory, they did not get much business, and their main income came from Li Jingming.
They themselves know better how this brick and tile factory was opened in the first place.
If it weren't for Li Jingming's long-term vision, how could they have recovered their capital in a short period of time and made a lot of money.
After twenty days of absence, the factory earned another large amount of money.
Li Jingming flipped through the pages and put the book into Li Jingcheng's hand.
"You did a good job while I was away. Once I leave, this factory will be entirely dependent on you."
Li Jingming's hand slapped Zhao Wenhu heavily on the shoulder.
The sudden praise and attention made Wenhu a little shy, and he touched the back of his head with a naive smile.
"You are our eldest brother, where would the three of us come from without you?
Now our whole village can eat fine grains because of you, what would it be like without you?"
Not long after Zhang Kai's house was repaired, he was busy working on the front line at two o'clock every day, and he didn't care to listen to other people's gossip. He had no idea how shocked he was by what Li Jingming said next.
"I'm just one person. Starting tomorrow, the county town will start to get busy. The machines have already been shipped. I'm afraid I will have to focus on the furniture factory for the time being.
However, I am responsible for this situation, and I still want to do business, but it’s the three of you who have done the hard work.”
"Wait a minute, what are you talking about? What furniture factory?"
Zhang Kai was confused as he listened. What this guy said just now was not a joke.
"Don't tell me you don't know. The boss wants to open a furniture factory in the county."
Zhao Wenhu took out cigarettes, one for each person, took out matches and lit them for Li Jingming, and then lit them for himself.
"Furniture factory? My dear, what are you doing? Why didn't anyone tell us about such a good thing?"
Zhao Wenhu actually didn't know very well. The last time he saw Li Jingming was more than 20 years ago. He only listened to what Li Jingcheng said about the furniture factory, and he didn't know the details.
Zhang Kai was originally squatting on the stacked bricks. When he heard the news, he jumped down from the bricks in shock.
"Everyone in the factory knows about this. If you don't know, it means your mind is not in the factory."
Zhao Wenhu said jokingly, and the next second, a map was opened on his trouser legs.
"Go, go, don't talk nonsense. I just work too hard and I don't have time to listen to people gossiping."
When Zhang Kai finished speaking, the other three grown men all laughed.
“I have planned this for a long time, but I just don’t know whether it will be profitable or not.
I brought you here so that you can live a good life. If the furniture factory loses money, I will have uneasy conscience.
You have a stake in this brick and tile factory, so run it well first.
The country is developing, and the living standards of our farmers are also improving. There are many people in these villages and towns who want to build new houses.
Our factory is legal, and unless there are special circumstances in the future, we will only get richer and richer.
I have thought carefully about the furniture factory, so I will handle it alone for now while you focus on the brick and tile factory.
You know, I, Li Jingming, am not a person who covets glory and wealth.
I still say the same thing, if you have money, let’s make it together.
If the brick and tile factory makes good profits in the future, I guarantee you that when the furniture factory expands, you can invest in it and receive dividends."
Li Jingming is not afraid of being misunderstood by everyone, but he still needs to say what he needs to say clearly.
He really has no idea whether the furniture factory can make a profit.
He can't let everyone take risks.
It’s hard to make some money, but if everyone joins in with me, I’m afraid it’ll be too late to cry.
