Wang Gang wanted to take Luo Yuzhu home. Although it was a temporary idea, he had given it some thought.
It was too dangerous for Luo Yuzhu to live alone in the old factory building. Since Wang Gang encountered it, there was no reason to let it go.
But his proposal was too direct, which shocked Luo Yuzhu, thinking that Wang Gang had some evil intentions.
Luo Yuzhu was able to escape from the traffickers, so she was naturally very defensive.
Although she was familiar with Wang Gang, she didn't go home with him.
Wang Gang naturally saw Luo Yuzhu's precautions and explained: "It's too dangerous for you to live here. If you go to my house, you can share a bed with my mother or my sister. It's better than freezing to death here."
"I can't trouble you anymore."
Luo Yuzhu gradually let down her guard and recalled the scene where Wang Gang picked her up and walked like flying. Wang Gang really wanted to do something, and she was powerless to stop it.
"We are neither relatives nor friends, why do you want to help me?" Luo Yuzhu asked, lowering his head.
Wang Gang sighed and said, "Because you look like a friend of mine."
This was the second time Luo Yuzhu heard Wang Gang say this.
"Is that friend of yours a female?" Luo Yuzhu asked curiously.
Wang Gang nodded and said, "Her name is Zheng Juan, and she used to be my favorite person."
Luo Yuzhu suddenly felt a sadness in Wang Gang.
"You said once, where is she now?" Luo Yuzhu asked curiously.
Wang Gang shook his head and said nothing.
Luo Yuzhu had already guessed something.
Wang Gang picked up Luo Yuzhu's luggage and said, "Let's go home with me."
This time Luo Yuzhu did not refuse.
The two of them walked for half an hour before arriving home. Wang Gang brought Luo Yuzhu back, which scared Mother Han and Second Sister Han to death.
Mother Han had lived her whole life, how could she not realize that Luo Yuzhu was a woman disguised as a man.
She first asked her second daughter to greet Luo Yuzhu, then pulled Wang Gang aside and asked, "Xiao Wuzi, why did you bring a girl home? Who is she?"
Wang Gang said: "She is a friend I just met, named Luo Yuzhu. She has no place to stay for the time being. She will stay at our house for two days."
Mother Han asked anxiously: "Where do you know this person?"
Wang Gang didn't dare to tell his mother about the black market, so he could only talk about him.
"Actually, Luo Yuzhu is quite pitiful. She has been since childhood..."
As soon as Wang Gang told Luo Yuzhu's tragic life experience, Mother Han's eyes immediately turned red.
"How can there be such a cruel father in this world!"
Wang Gang sighed and said, "Mom, it's not like you don't know that the preference for boys over girls in rural areas is quite serious. I'm really worried about her being a girl wandering outside."
Han's mother was worried and said: "How can you get a wife if you bring a girl back and spread the news?"
Wang Gang deliberately provoked Mother Han and said, "Then I will drive her away now."
Mother Han was shaken. After learning about Luo Yuzhu's life experience, how could she safely let a girl live in a shabby factory building?
"Alas." Mother Han sighed, walked up to Luo Yuzhu and asked, "Girl, you must be hungry! There is nothing to entertain. There are still some steamed buns at home, so you can eat some."
Luo Yuzhu almost cried when she saw the two steamed buns.
Mother Han reminded her of her own mother.
When Luo Yuzhu cried, Mother Han felt even more distressed.
"Girl, don't cry! It makes me feel bad when you cry." Mother Han said lovingly.
In this way, Luo Yuzhu moved into the Han family and spent the night with Han's mother.
Early the next morning, Wang Gang was used to getting up before dawn, but found that Luo Yuzhu had gotten up earlier than him and was already helping to clean up the house and wash clothes.
"Why did you wash all my and my mother's clothes?" Wang Gang stopped Luo Yuzhu who was washing clothes.
Luo Yuzhu said embarrassedly: "I haven't slept in a bed for a long time. I'm not used to sleeping. I have nothing to do, so I washed the clothes you changed."
"Don't feel like you owe us." Wang Gang advised, "Don't treat yourself as an outsider either."
Luo Yuzhu was moved and said: "It's you and Aunt Han who didn't treat me as an outsider."
Last night, Luo Yuzhu felt the long-lost warmth of family and didn't sleep all night.
Wang Gang didn't say anything else, and asked Luo Yuzhu to wash the clothes, go outside to exercise, and bought some by the way to come back early.
When Mother Han and Second Sister Han woke up early in the morning, they found that Luo Yuzhu had done all the housework, and they felt a little embarrassed.
"Yuzhu, you are a guest, how can you do these things?" Mother Han took Luo Yuzhu's hand, but found that her hand was extremely rough.
Yesterday Luo Yuzhu said that she is only eighteen years old, but her hands are full of calluses and wounds, which shows that she has suffered a lot.
"Child, you..." Mother Han's eyes turned red and she choked with sobs.
Second Sister Han comforted her mother and said, "Mom, let's take Yuzhu to the bathhouse later!"
Luo Yuzhu had been living in a shabby factory building before. She was dirty and had probably not taken a bath for a long time, so the second sister Han suggested taking her to the bathhouse.
"My work has issued some bathhouse tickets, which are just enough for the three of us."
"You have a good idea." Han Mu smiled and held Luo Yuzhu's hand, and said: "Yuzhu, you haven't been to the bathhouse in our capital yet!"
Luo Yuzhu shook her head. She had never been to any bathhouse, let alone the bathhouses in the capital.
In the past, when I was in the countryside, I would always bathe at home. Later, when I was wandering outside, I would just wash and wipe myself casually and would not spend money to go to a bathhouse.
Wang Gang safely handed over Luo Yuzhu to Han Mu and went to work.
As soon as they arrived at the workshop, Tao Zi and Cai Xiaoli surrounded him.
"Chunming, did you escape yesterday?" Taozi was so nervous that he couldn't even stutter.
Wang Gang rolled his eyes and said, "If I hadn't escaped, would you have seen me today?"
Cai Xiaoli asked: "Luo Yuzhu wasn't caught either, right?"
"She is very good and is now at home with me."
Cai Xiaoli was startled and asked in confusion: "Why did you take her home?"
"She didn't have a place to stay in the capital, so I let her stay at my house for a few days. Anyway, she would leave and go back to the south in two days."
Cai Xiaoli worried: "Is this convenient? Otherwise, let her go to my house!"
Wang Gang shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter, my mother likes her very much and almost treats her as her daughter."
Cai Xiaoli felt even more uneasy.
At this time, the workshop director ran over, called Wang Gang out, and ended the conversation between the three of them.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The workshop director came to Wang Gang about the eggs.
"Chunming, you said before that you could get a lot of cheap eggs, is that true?" the director asked anxiously.
The food factory has recently had a procurement problem and is in urgent need of a large number of eggs, which has affected the output of the production workshop.
When the director was chatting with Wang Gang, he heard that he had relatives in the countryside who could get a lot of eggs.
With the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, the director came to find him.
"I have a batch of eggs on hand, about a thousand." Wang Gang said.
The director's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Really? On behalf of the factory, I will purchase these eggs from you at the market price!"
Wang Gang shook his head and refused: "That's not possible. Am I not just speculating?"
The director's smile froze, and then he remembered that Wang Gang was not qualified to resell eggs.
Seeing that the director was in trouble again, Wang Gang said, "Director, does our factory have a purchasing department?"
The director was also a smart man. He patted his head and said, "Look at my brain. As long as you are transferred to the purchasing department, you can purchase eggs normally on behalf of the factory. As for the source of purchasing, we can be flexible."
Wang Gang's lips curled up. What he wanted was the identity of the Purchasing Department.
Once he becomes a purchasing specialist, he can use this status to do many things.
He has space and can save a lot of transportation costs when purchasing, and the money does not end up in his own pocket.
This is a quick and stable source of income, much easier than being a workshop worker!
"Chunming, please wait for me. I'll go to the head of the purchasing department to discuss this."
The director was a man of action. An hour later, he took Wang Gang to see the purchasing section chief.
The purchasing section chief of the food factory is named Tao.
Chief Tao was very interested in the eggs in Wang Gang's hands, but he was even more interested in the source of the eggs.
Of course, Wang Gang would not cut off his wealth. He only said that he could get cheap eggs, but he would not say where they came from.
Section Chief Tao was also anxious. The factory director gave him a fatal order not to affect the production tasks. Finally, he agreed to transfer Wang Gang to the purchasing department, but he must obtain 3,000 eggs within three days.
Wang Gang promised Section Chief Tao that he would complete the task, and took the initiative to lower the purchase price of eggs. Each egg only earned the factory one penny, and he also reduced the transportation fee by 80% to only 20%.
He did some calculations and found that this business could earn him about 300 yuan, the bulk of which was still in transportation fees!
Naturally, Section Chief Tao didn't know that Wang Gang had space, and thought he was taking advantage of Wang Gang. He was so moved that he directly gave him the deposit for the eggs, and said that if he did a good job this time, all the purchasing tasks in the factory would be handed over to him in the future.
Wang Gang took a bus to the countryside in the afternoon, used the money from the factory to buy another batch of eggs, put them all in the space and took them back to the city. The only transportation fee for the whole journey was two tickets.
In this era, there is no shortage of things in the countryside, but how to transport them into the city is a big problem. Wang Gang found a way to make money.
