Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 474 Look at the son and respect the father

There are more than 5,000 households in Shilou Township, and about half of them are involved in making cat climbing frames.

With so many people working overtime, 15,000 sets of cat climbing frames were completed without even using them for a month.

The staff in the township, in cooperation with Sheng Xiwen and Sheng Xiwu, inspected the products in each village, and directly recorded, packed and shipped the qualified products.

Those who fail will be sent back for re-doing.

Everyone cherishes this rare opportunity to make money. In fact, people in this age rarely fool around, so there are very few substandard products.

After all the 15,000 sets of cat climbing frames were inspected and accepted, Sheng Lianjie found a way to contact the county's truck and sent the goods to the train station for loading and delivery.

Sheng Xiping transferred the remaining balance to the township government account, and then the township distributed the money door to door according to the account.

Those with a large family and a lot of work can earn more than 300 yuan a month, while those with less work can earn more than 200 yuan.

Originally, many people didn't believe in the idea of ​​a cat climbing frame in the countryside.

Our ancestors have lived for so many years, who has ever heard of making a nest for a cat?

Not only is it a nest, but it also has shelves, cotton mats, and even things specifically for cats to scratch and play with? How is this raising a cat? This is more valuable than raising children.

I don’t know which whimsical person with brain problems came up with these things. Isn’t this nonsense?

There are not a few people who think this way, and they all think this is nonsense.

The villagers must have been deceived, and they might have been working so hard that they had nothing in the end, and it was all in vain.

So, a lot of people weren't involved.

Then, when they learned that this batch of goods was not cheated and all the workers had received their money, these people regretted it to death.

If I had known, they would have taken some of the tasks assigned by the village.

In a month, let alone three hundred, wouldn't it be good to earn even one hundred? Where can I find a hundred dollars these days?

Compared with the regrets of these people, those who received the money were all smiling and happy.

"Secretary, do you still have this job? If you still have it, please remember us.

It's winter and I have less work to do. I want to earn some more money for my eldest son to get a wife. "Someone happily put the money into their arms and asked the village cadre who distributed the money.

“I don’t know if there will be any more, everything will be decided by the township.

I heard that Secretary Sheng from our hometown is related to the big boss in the south, and he is trying to help us find a way to make money. So just wait, and I will notify you door to door if there is any news. "

The village secretary waved his hand, signaling those who had received the money to leave quickly and not to delay the people behind them from receiving their money.

News that Shilou Township led the farmers to develop a sideline business, weaving baskets and making shelves for others, and earning a lot of money in a month, quickly spread to nearby towns.

Many township and village leaders came to see Sheng Lianjie, saying that Sheng Lianjie was not honest and would not take them with him if he had a profitable business.

"Small business is really not worth mentioning. Our township doesn't have enough points for it, so I didn't alarm you."

Sheng Lianjie handed over to the other township leaders with a smile on his face. He said it politely, but he couldn't hide the complacency in his tone.

Fifteen thousand sets of cat climbing frames cost 50 yuan a set. This is an output value of 750,000 yuan.

After deducting all kinds of expenses, the net profit would be four to five hundred thousand. How could you imagine earning this much money in a month?

Moreover, this is only the first batch. Sheng Xiping said that after this batch of goods is shipped abroad, if the sales response is good, there will be more orders in the future.

Not to mention too much a year, if each household earns an extra 1,800 yuan, wouldn’t their life be quite rich? What a great thing?

"Small business? We've all heard people say that this time in Haixiang, he made at least hundreds of thousands. Do you think this is called a small business?

Oh, Lao Sheng, now that you are rich, your tone has become louder. "The others were filled with envy and jealousy after hearing this, so they said sourly.

"No, I don't dare to say that. The money didn't reach my pocket. Why am I so rich?" Hearing this, Sheng Lianjie waved his hands quickly.

Although a small part of the money went into the village's account, Sheng Lianjie dared to say that he didn't get a penny.

Both of his sons work with Sheng Xiping, and it is said that the salary is not low, which is enough.

Why do people work all their lives? Isn't it just for the sake of the children?

"Old Sheng, that was a joke just now. Let's talk about something serious. Let's think about any profitable business in the future.

Hey, we are all in the same place. If we eat meat in Haixiang, it’s okay for us to drink some soup along with it. "Everyone was unwilling to give up and continued.

"Zhong, Zhong, I have made a note of this. If there is still money-making work in the future and my hometown is too busy, I will definitely ask for help."

They were all subordinates of the same county, and they usually looked down without looking up. Sheng Lianjie didn't want to offend these people, so he nodded in agreement.

What about the older people in their village? For ordinary orders, their own village doesn’t have enough to share, so how can they give it to others?

Everyone couldn't get much useful information from Sheng Lianjie, so they had no choice but to go back.

Compared with the hundreds of thousands earned by Shilou Xiang, the profits earned by Tengyue Trading Company are several times greater.

After the goods are shipped, the foreign merchants pay the balance.

Of course, feedback from foreign customers has not yet arrived, and Sheng Xiping did not dare to be careless. He did not take the risk of producing first, but asked people to pay attention to customer feedback.

As the end of the year approaches, there are too many things going on in the company. Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng are so busy every day that their original plan to return to Northeast China has to be postponed.

The Sheng family's house had been packed up a long time ago. After the snow fell, Zhou Qinglan took Aunt Li and her two sons and moved back to their new home.

The new house has heating. Zhou Qinglan spent money to buy a lot of coal. When the weather gets cold, he starts to burn the boiler for heating. Plus, he usually burns fire for cooking, so the house is not cold at all.

Just four people living in six large houses seemed extremely empty.

After winter, the forest farm's winter production began. Sheng Liancheng still had one year to retire, so he went up the mountain to see Daku as usual.

Zhang Shuzhen was at home, coaxing her two granddaughters. Huahua would send some prey back from time to time, and would stay at home for one night every now and then.

The three little tigers have grown quite big, and they are still as naughty as when they were little. They often go out to bully the dogs at home.

Every time the three tiger cubs went out to play, Huahua would get so angry that she would beat the children violently.

The more times they did it, the three tiger cubs also understood that they couldn't mess with those dogs, and gradually they stopped bullying the dogs.

On the evening of December 3rd, I got a call from my hometown saying that Sheng Xiping's grandmother, Sheng Han, had passed away.

Since the death of the old man of the Sheng family, Sheng Han's health has not been good.

When Sheng Xiping accompanied his brother back in the autumn, he took his grandma to the county hospital for a physical check-up, and told Sheng Lianyi and the others to make the old lady take medicine on time and take good care of her body.

During that time, the old lady's health obviously improved a lot.

On the evening of the 3rd, Mrs. Sheng Han said that she was not feeling well, and her family wanted to see a doctor. The old lady thought it was troublesome, so she said she should eat first.

Wait until you finish eating. If you still feel uncomfortable, go see a doctor.

As a result, before the meal was ready, the old lady couldn't breathe, and her face and lips turned purple.

When Sheng Lianyi and his wife saw this, they hurriedly sent for a doctor. Here, Sheng Lianyi's daughter-in-law rubbed her mother-in-law's chest and back, trying to make her feel better.

Unexpectedly, before the doctor was called, the old lady passed away without even taking a breath.

At this time, everyone was in a panic and hurriedly wiped the old lady's body and put on the old clothes that had been prepared long ago.

The family hurriedly sent people to go to the countryside to inform Sheng Lianjie and ask Sheng Lianjie to call others quickly.

At the same time, the family quickly invited people over to discuss the old lady's future.

When the call came to Qianchuan Forest Farm, Sheng Liancheng had just left on the commuter bus. Zhang Shuzhen hurriedly called Songjianghe and finally found Zhou Qinglan.

"Mom, don't worry now. The matter has already happened. We are so far away, so it is useless for you to worry.

In this case, you first talk to the people on the scene and quickly notify the people on the mountain to stop my dad and ask him to follow the commuter car before coming down.

Then tell the neighbors and ask them to help take care of the house.

I will immediately arrange for someone to drive up to pick you up.

At nine-thirty in the evening, there is a train to Shenyang. You and my dad take the train. If you can't catch up, you can go back and have a look. "

The old lady from the Sheng family left in the evening, and she was only three days old. This place was quite far from her hometown, and she had to reverse the car several times along the way, so she would definitely not be able to make it in time for the funeral.

But no matter what, Sheng Liancheng has to go back and take a look since his biological mother is gone.

Just like that, Zhou Qinglan hung up the phone call to her mother-in-law, and then immediately called Zheng Hua and asked them to arrange someone and drive back to the forest farm to pick her up as soon as possible.

When Zheng Hua heard this, he did not dare to neglect and immediately drove to Qianchuan Forest Farm.

Zhou Qinglan, after hanging up the phone, called Sheng Xiping and Sheng Xikang.

"Daughter-in-law, I just received a call from my third uncle. I'm too busy here and can't get away.

You ask Xiwen and Xiwu to accompany our parents back to their hometown. I'll call the third child to see if he has time. "

After the brothers Sheng Xiwen, Sheng Xiwu and Sheng Xiwu finished working on the cat climbing frames, they returned to the Northeast. It happened that they could accompany Sheng Liancheng and his wife, and they also had someone to look after them on the way.

In this way, Zhou Qinglan arranged for people to pick up her parents-in-law and their two children.

Sheng Xiwen and Sheng Xiwu accompanied Sheng Liancheng and his wife and took the train back overnight.

But even so, by the time Sheng Liancheng and his wife rushed back to their hometown, it was already the morning of the 6th.

The old lady went out for funeral on the 5th. After the funeral, she only had three days to round the grave.

Sheng Liancheng knelt in front of his parents' graves and cried bitterly, regretting that he had not been able to come back and stay for a while in the autumn to see his mother for the last time.

After the three-day round grave is the first seven, every seven is burned here in my hometown, so Sheng Liancheng and his wife have to wait at least until the fifth and seventh are burned before they can go home.

Unexpectedly, the day after Sheng Han's first burn, a message came from Zhang Shuzhen's natal family saying that Zhang Shuzhen's mother was no longer alive.

Her mother-in-law had just passed away, and her natal mother was gone too. Zhang Shuzhen cried so hard that Sheng Liancheng had no choice but to endure his grief and comfort his wife. Two elderly people passed away one after another, and Sheng Liancheng and his wife were sad for a long time before they recovered.

In late December, sales feedback from foreign customers began to arrive.

Cat climbing frames are selling like hotcakes all over the country. They were sold out almost as soon as they were put up without any promotion. Those who couldn't get it were booked one after another.

Customers from all over the country requested additional orders. This time, the order quantity far exceeded the last time.

Moreover, customers from other regions also came to Sheng Xiping's company after hearing the news and wanted to order products.

After receiving customer feedback, Sheng Xiping immediately communicated with the customer and signed a long-term supply contract.

After that, Sheng Xiping immediately contacted Sheng Xiwen and Sheng Xiwu who were still in his hometown, and asked them to seize the time to organize manpower and start work.

When Sheng Lianjie heard that another order had come in, and this time the amount was larger, he couldn't bear to be sad. He quickly cheered up, called a meeting with people, and assigned tasks.

This time, many people have taken the initiative to ask to join. To be on the safe side, new joiners need to undergo an assessment.

Only those who pass the skill assessment will be assigned tasks, and those who fail the assessment will not be used at all.

Sheng Xiwen and Sheng Xiwu also became busy, running materials and contacting transportation. Even Sheng Xizheng, Sheng Xihong, and Sheng Xiyong, who had just been demobilized and returned home, were also dragged to help.

There is no train service here in my hometown, so transportation is not very convenient, and transporting goods out is very troublesome.

Sheng Xiping also took this into consideration, so he purchased six large trucks through connections to form a transportation team.

Sheng Xiyong was appointed as the captain of the transportation team, leading Sheng Xizheng, Sheng Xihong, and the two sons of Zhang Shoushan's family to specialize in transportation.

"The second child, Xiping of the Wei family, is this one."

On the day the big truck arrived in the countryside, Sheng Lianyi and several elders in his family praised Sheng Xiping in front of Sheng Liancheng.

"This kid has a good heart and never forgets his roots. When he gets rich, he still remembers to help the people in his hometown. We all have made money, so who doesn't think about his kindness?"

Facing the praise from everyone, Sheng Liancheng is naturally beautiful.

This son of my own is really quite capable, and he actually thought of a good way to lead the whole town to become rich.

When Sheng Liancheng refused to answer his brother's inquiries, he was mainly worried that people from his hometown would label Sheng Xiping, do things poorly, and cause trouble to Sheng Xiping.

Unexpectedly, under Sheng Xiping's plan, these people from his hometown became a help.

It's good. Everyone has something to do. It's much better to get rich by working hard with your hands than to have a small amount of money from others.

Because of this incident, the sadness of Sheng Liancheng and his wife due to the death of their loved ones has faded a lot.

Sheng Liancheng also ran to the carpenter's house in the village and watched those people working. He became interested and insisted on helping.

These people in the village all know Sheng Liancheng. In the past, when they met him, they would at most say hello politely, but now when they see Sheng Liancheng again, they are so enthusiastic.

What's the old saying? In the first thirty years, you should respect your father and your son, and in the next thirty years, you should respect your son and your father.

Before, Sheng Liancheng was respected by everyone at the forest farm, but Sheng Liancheng didn't think anything of it. After all, his son had been capable since he was a child, and he was used to it.

Now in his hometown, Sheng Liancheng is treated so politely by his fellow villagers, and Sheng Liancheng feels the real joy of returning to his hometown with a rich legacy.

Not only the people in the same village had special respect for Sheng Liancheng, but even the leaders of other towns and villages got the news somehow and brought things to see Sheng Liancheng.

Especially in Zhongxing Town, where the Zhang family belongs, the town secretary and village secretary specially asked Zhang Shoushan to accompany them to meet Sheng Liancheng and his wife.

Just to get closer to each other, let Sheng Liancheng and his wife say something nice to their son, get some orders, and give it to them.

Sheng Liancheng was naturally reluctant to agree, so he just said he would send a message to his son later.

As for whether it would succeed or not, he couldn't guarantee it. Sheng Liancheng didn't understand the company's affairs, and he couldn't interfere casually.

"Uncle, thank you. As long as you say this, it will be fine. No matter what my brother says later, I will always accept my uncle's feelings." The town secretary held Sheng Liancheng's hand and said gratefully.

"Oh, I have lived for most of my life, and this time I really feel that we can take advantage of the child."

After all the visitors had left, Sheng Liancheng sat on the kang and said to Zhang Shuzhen.

"Yes, look at these people in the village, they are all busy working and making money, adults and children alike, all have happy faces, how nice is that?

I heard from my elder brother that from the last order, he, Xi Zheng, Xihong, and his wives earned more than 300 yuan. Other people earn at least more than two hundred.

I heard that there are quite a lot of orders this time, and it seems that I can do it until May or June next year. If I calculate it this way, I can earn at least a thousand yuan. Isn't this good? "

Zhang Shuzhen was also happy when she heard her husband's words. "Seeing that our family members are doing well makes us feel comfortable."

I didn't come back often before. One reason was that my family was not doing well and couldn't afford to spend so much money.

Another reason is that life is not good in their hometown. When they come back, even food and accommodation will be a burden to the relatives at home.

Now that the family has other livelihoods besides farming, no matter how much or how little they earn, it is still an income. When they come back and look at it, they feel better.

Sheng Liancheng and his wife stayed in their hometown until Zhang Wangshi finished the May 7th Burning Festival, which happened to be around January 10th.

Sheng Xiping called and discussed with his parents to let them go to the capital to stay for a few days. Before they were in a hurry, Sheng Liancheng and the others took a train to Shenyang, and then took a newly opened train from Shenyang directly to Yanzhou without passing through the capital on the way.

This time I go back to the capital and see my son and daughter-in-law.

In particular, Wu Yuhua was more than three months pregnant, and Zhang Shuzhen, the mother-in-law, took care of her for a few days, just to be considerate of her kindness.

It just so happened that Sheng Xitai would be on vacation in a few days. Sheng Xiping would finish handling the company's affairs as soon as possible and would meet in the capital then.

Sheng Liancheng and his wife thought for a while that this would be okay. They have been out for so long and it is not too late in a few days. Then they should go to the capital to visit their daughter-in-law.

Just like that, on the morning of January 16, the couple got on Sheng Xiyong's delivery truck to Yanzhou. After arriving in Yanzhou, they bought tickets and got on the truck, heading straight to the capital.

Sheng Xikang received the news in advance and went to the station in advance to take his parents home.

Zhang Shuzhen was very happy to see her third daughter-in-law. She held her daughter-in-law's hand and expressed all kinds of concern.

"Yuhua, look, you are pregnant, and I can't take care of you even if you are far away.

With this little money, you can keep it to buy some delicious food and replenish your health. If you and the child are fine, your father and I will feel at ease. "As Zhang Shuzhen said, she took out five hundred yuan and gave it to Wu Yuhua.

"Mom, no need. Xikang and I both have jobs. The settlement allowance you gave us before has not been touched."

Wu Yuhua and Sheng Xikang's salaries are not low, and their workplace's benefits are good. They have their own houses in the capital and don't have to rent, so they have no burden.

The two of them would cook something casually in the morning, eat in the work canteen at noon, and go home in the evening. If they wanted to move, they would cook something, and if they didn't, they would go to Wu's house to eat, so their daily expenses were not large.

Wu Yuhua saved all the betrothal gifts from the previous engagement, red envelopes for lip changes, settlement expenses, and the money secretly given to her by the Wu family.

So the young couple had a lot of money, so how could she have the nerve to worry about her mother-in-law asking for money?

"That's different. Those are for you to live in. This is for me as a grandma to give to my grandchildren.

Be obedient, keep your money, and buy what you usually eat, and don't lose your money.

Pregnancy is the hardest time for a woman, so you must not be careless. From now on, this family will have one child, and you must take good care of it. "Zhang Shuzhen didn't care about that and forced the money into Wu Yuhua's hands.

"Don't quarrel with me. You're feeling heavy now. We put our children first. You're welcome to mom. You can spend whatever you want."

Her mother-in-law was so kind that Wu Yuhua couldn't refuse anymore and could only accept the money obediently.

In order to welcome his parents-in-law, Wu Yuhua specially prepared a lot of delicious food and made dumplings.

It happened that Sheng Xitai had no classes in the evening, so he rushed over, and the family had a lively dinner.

Sheng Liancheng and his wife stayed with their third son and went to the Wu family to visit Mr. Wu the next day.

After that, the couple wandered around the capital and bought a lot of things, most of which were for Wu Yuhua.

When a woman is pregnant with a child, she is most afraid of catching cold. Winter in the capital is quite cold, so Zhang Shuzhen is afraid that her daughter-in-law will be cold and hurt her body.

So she went to the store to buy cloth and cotton, made Wu Yuhua a pair of loose-fitting cotton trousers, and kept them for Wu Yuhua to wear.

After Wu Yuhua and Sheng Xikang got married, they returned to the capital to live, which basically meant that they had never lived together with their mother-in-law.

Before, she only listened to her sister-in-law Zhou Qinglan say how nice her mother-in-law was. In fact, she was a little disapproving of it.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is good if they can respect each other and be polite. How many mother-in-laws really love their daughter-in-law as if they were their own daughters?

But at this moment, Wu Yuhua finally realized how her sister-in-law said they had a good mother-in-law.

When she put on the loose and soft cotton pants specially made by her mother-in-law, she not only felt warm on her body, but also felt warm in her heart.

"Mom, thank you. These cotton pants are warm to me and they fit well.

Mom, you are really good at needlework, much better than my mother. "Wu Yuhua said happily.

"Can it be the same? Your mother has a job, and others still have to go to work.

I am just a housewife with many children at home. If I am not good at sewing, won’t Xikang and the others have to suffer from the cold? "The praise from her daughter-in-law made Zhang Shuzhen smile from ear to ear.

"Um, the blankets, quilts, pee mats for you to give birth to, the small clothes and bellybands for the baby to wear, wait until I get home and make them for you.

These things, no matter how much you buy from outside, are not as good as those made by yourself. "

Zhang Shuzhen was so elated by her daughter-in-law's praise that she immediately said that she had packed everything needed for the baby's birth.

"Hey, thank you, Mom. I really don't understand these things, so I won't prepare them. I'll use ready-made ones."

Wu Yuhua was not polite to her mother-in-law and responded directly.

Zhang Shuzhen and Wu Yuhua, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, get along very well, which makes Sheng Xikang relieved.
