The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 427: Life is impermanent (1.03 million) Good night
"Xue Gong, are you busy?" Cao Shujie greeted the other party.

Xue Jianwei said apologetically: "Boss Cao, I'm so sorry. I worked overtime to draw pictures last night and fell asleep just now."

"It's okay, Mr. Xue, how is my drawing? When will the equipment drawing be finalized?" Cao Shujie asked.

Xue Jianwei has been working overtime just to design drawings for his equipment.

Cao Shujie's "subtle care" still affected Xue Jianwei and He Fucheng.

It's just that Cao Shujie doesn't know these things.

Xue Jianwei told Cao Shujie that the first draft could be produced by the middle of this month. At that time, they would come over to review it with Cao Shujie and map out some accurate data.

If there are no problems, they will change it to a formal drawing and send a copy to Cao Shujie, and they will start making equipment according to the drawing.

Cao Shujie renovated and upgraded the existing workshop according to the drawings.

From the start of construction to full production of a factory, it cannot be completed in a month or two.

Even if a separate workshop is put out, it may take less than half a year, and it may not be completed smoothly.

Cao Shujie also knew these things.

"Gong Xue, let's keep in touch." Cao Shujie hung up the phone.

Cao Shulin and the others heard the content of Cao Shujie's call nearby, and couldn't help but asked him curiously: "Boss, is the equipment almost ready?"

He thought that if the equipment was built and put into production as soon as possible, they would be able to go to work.

But Cao Shujie told him that the equipment was still early.

"But after the drawings are finalized, our factory here will have to find a construction contractor to rebuild and upgrade the existing workshop layout. You can go over and take a look at it then."

Cao Shulin was confused when he heard it. He quickly waved his hand: "Boss, I can't understand the drawings. I may not be able to do this job."

"That's okay. You go over and do some chores and help me keep an eye on the construction company. I will hire another civil engineer."

Cao Shujie knew that he had spent more than 400 million just to buy the factory. The equipment probably cost several million more, plus the workshop renovation and upgrade, and the purchase of the remaining bits and pieces.

At this time, Cao Shujie suddenly had a hunch that when the factory was fully operational, he might not have enough funds.

"I just made some money, and I'm still excited about it. Do I need to invest it all?"

Cao Shujie thought that he planned to buy some stocks before the big bull market arrived, but now he found that he didn't have enough money to spend. What's going on?

Even if he is asked to find a way to make money at this time, Cao Shujie also knows that this year may not be as good an opportunity as reselling apples last year.

"There is no other way, just take it one step at a time." Cao Shujie thought to himself.

Fortunately, the third batch of 100 cows purchased from his orchard will be almost ready for slaughter in May.

It's just that there are too few of them this time, and the original cost of buying calves is not low, equivalent to 3300 yuan per head.

Overall, I can't make as much money as raising cattle before.

Cao Shujie kept these things in his heart, and he didn't tell anyone.

He didn't intend to tell his wife either.

It would only increase the psychological pressure on his wife and would not have any other effect.

At noon, his wife went to pick up Mengmeng from kindergarten.

Cao Shujie came down from the mountain and went home for dinner. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Mengmeng describing her majestic scene in the kindergarten to his grandfather Cao Zhenghu.

"Grandpa, let me tell you, they all call me 'sister', and some are willing to choose me to be the team leader, but I'm not competing against them." Mengmeng also specifically stated this.

She was afraid that the old man would misunderstand that she had obtained it by other means.

After Cheng Xiaolin finished making lunch, she asked her grandfather Cao Zhenghu to eat first while she was responsible for feeding Mengmeng.

But Mengmeng grabbed the spoon from her mother's hand and said, "Mom, I'm already in kindergarten. I'm a big kid. You don't need to feed me."

After saying that, she grabbed the handle of the spoon with her hand and reached into the bowl, scooping spoonfuls of rice into her mouth, but more porridge fell out than she drank.

Cheng Xiaolin was happy but helpless. She wanted to help her daughter, but Mengmeng refused.

She even put the bowl aside and lowered her mouth to drink the porridge that fell on the table.

When Cheng Xiaolin saw it, she directly pulled Mengmeng aside: "Mengmeng, how come you are so good at it? Can you still drink the porridge that fell on the table?"

"But the teacher said it can't be wasted." Mengmeng stared at her mother, she was very eloquent and confident.

When Cheng Xiaolin heard what she said, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Mengmeng, did your teacher teach you this?"

"Didn't I teach you to pay attention to hygiene?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her.

Mengmeng was immediately stopped by the question. She hummed and said, "No!"

"Mengmeng, mommy told you that you can't eat things on the ground in the future. There are a lot of bacteria on them, you know?" Cheng Xiaolin said.

When Cao Shujie came in, he yelled, "Just wash it off. I don't think it's clean. I won't get sick after eating it."

"My family used to be poor, so we didn't want to be so wasteful."

Mengmeng nodded hastily: "Dad is right, our teacher said the same."

"There was a little fat guy in our class whose strawberries fell to the ground. He picked them up and ate them without washing them." Mengmeng also knew how to give examples.

But when Cao Shujie heard what his daughter said, he disagreed this time: "Mengmeng, you can't imitate him. There is a lot of dust on the ground in your classroom. Don't eat if it gets on it."

"Ah!" Mengmeng opened her mouth, wondering why her father's words were inconsistent.

……

After Mengmeng finished eating, she played for about ten minutes and then went to sleep.

I didn't send her to kindergarten until 02:30 in the afternoon, so she had enough time to take a nap.

After Cheng Xiaolin cleared away the dishes, she came back and asked her husband, "Shujie, how are you doing?" "What are you talking about?" Cao Shujie asked her.

Cheng Xiaolin waved her hand and slapped him: "There are a few more things. Didn't you say you were going to town to find Liu Furong for help?"

"Oh, um, the people for emergency plan training have been appointed. They will come over in two days to train us."

"We are discussing with the hospital about setting up an emergency point in our village, but we haven't decided yet."

He said: "If this matter cannot be discussed, I will recruit a retired emergency doctor to be permanently stationed in our village."

Cheng Xiaolin remembered something and reminded him: "Shujie, if you recruit an emergency doctor, wouldn't you be competing with Gao Weimin for business?"

"Who said I was competing for business with him?" Cao Shujie didn't care at all.

He said: "I am recruiting in the name of the company and has nothing to do with Caojiazhuang."

"Gao Weimin can just continue to be his village doctor."

Cheng Xiaolin understood it as soon as she heard it and no longer struggled with it.

She was also a little sleepy, so she told her husband and went upstairs to take a lunch break.

Life is never easy.

The peaceful life in Caojiazhuang was suddenly broken by an unexpected news.

Cao Jiangang, the former village party secretary of Caojiazhuang, was seriously ill and hospitalized.

After Cao Jianlong learned about this, he called Cao Shujie and asked if he had time to go to the county hospital to see Cao Jiangang.

After the two met, Cao Jianlong had a heavy expression on his face.

In his words, Cao Jiangang may not be able to survive this time.

"Uncle Long, is Uncle Jiangang so serious?" Cao Shujie thought about Cao Jiangang's physical condition since he came back in November last year.

Coupled with the torture of various diseases, he actually suffered a lot of sins in his later years.

I heard that Cao Jiangang himself said that he was being punished by God.

Cao Jianlong sighed and said to Cao Shujie: "The situation is more serious than you think."

"Let's just go to the county hospital to take a look, and then send 2000 yuan on behalf of the village committee. It's considered our best effort." Cao Jianlong said this.

When Cao Shujie heard this, he went home and told his grandfather and wife, then got in the car and took Cao Jianlong to Pingyuan County Hospital.

After arriving, Cao Shujie called Cao Jiangang's son, Cao Shufeng, and asked him where Cao Jiangang was hospitalized.

When the two of them saw Cao Jiangang in the ward, Cao Shujie couldn't believe what his eyes saw.

Cao Jiangang was even thinner this time than the last time they met.

There is a word called "skinny". Cao Shujie always thought it was just an adjective, but this word was perfectly interpreted by Cao Jiangang.

"Why did it happen like this?" Cao Shujie murmured, in disbelief.

Cao Jiangang suffered so much, no wonder Cao Jianlong said that.

Cao Jiangang's wife Ren Cuiping has been wiping tears beside her. Perhaps she also knows that her husband will not last long.

Cao Jiangang, who was lying on the hospital bed, wanted to raise his hand and hold his wife's hand several times, trying to persuade her not to cry and to be more open-minded.

But before his hand was raised halfway, he couldn't lift it anymore, and finally fell weakly on the hospital bed.

"Old!" Cao Jiangang said.

The sound has an obvious sense of tearing, which makes people feel sad when listening to it.

Once upon a time, he was also the local emperor who dominated Caojiazhuang, but now he is like this.

"Brother Feng, do you have enough money?" Cao Shujie asked Cao Shufeng.

Leaving aside the things Cao Jiangang has done, in terms of seniority, Cao Shujie has to call him uncle in a serious manner.

Cao Shufeng choked and nodded: "That's enough, that's enough, Shujie, you don't have to think too much."

There were tears in his eyes, but he couldn't shed them.

Cao Shufeng knows his father's current situation better than anyone else.

That is no longer a problem that money can solve.

Cao Shujie and Cao Jianlong came out of the ward. When Cao Shufeng saw them off, he also expressed his gratitude to them for coming.

Cao Jianlong also left the 2000 yuan on behalf of the village committee.

This little money can't solve any problem, but Cao Jianlong also said that this is the intention of the village committee.

"Uncle Long, thank you for not remembering the faults of villains."

"I apologize to the people of Caojiazhuang for what my father did in the past!"

"The doctor said that my dad won't survive this week!"

……

On the way back, the atmosphere in the car was a bit solemn.

Cao Jianlong hummed and said: "Shujie, what do you want to do in this life?"

"Let's talk about your uncle Jiangang. He was indeed greedy for some money before, but he didn't spend it. After he was caught, he returned it in full and gave the rest to the hospital."

"He used to be such a strong person, but he collapsed at the first sign of collapse. My heart is so... filled with panic!"
