Chapter 237: Father's Sorrows

There is no way to raise a hundred kinds of people with the same rice. Wang Maogen can only try his best to do his duty as the boss of the family, and as for his younger brother Wang Shenggen, he is helpless.

In the afternoon, Li Liang and his sister returned home, Li Meng began to cook, and Li Liang returned to his room on the second floor.

Since moving to his new home, Li Liang's living conditions have improved significantly. In the old yard, his room was a simple small house next to the kitchen, and the small desk that usually read and wrote homework was made by his father Li Shuangzhu himself, which was simple and rough.

After the new home was built, Li Shuangzhu hired a professional carpenter master to make a complete set of furniture on the second floor. The TV cabinets, coffee tables, sofas, tables, chairs, benches, and beds in the living room are all made of fine solid wood, which was shipped from Li Liang's grandfather's house.

The old man thought about his children very early, and successively stored more than a dozen of all kinds of fine wood on the beams of his hometown, including precious camphor wood, as well as common fir and poplar trees, all of which Li Liang's grandfather usually saw some good trees in the countryside, and bought one or two scattered ones a year to store.

It happened that Li Liang's family had built a new house, and the old man invited a farm truck and sent it to Li Shuangzhu.

The camphor wood has been stored for some years, and the moisture in the wood has long been controlled and dried, and the furniture created exudes a faint camphor smell, which is durable, and also has the effects of insect-proof, moth-proof, mildew-proof, and sterilization.

Li Liang's bed is a one-meter-five-wide bed made of camphor wood, and he sleeps on it every night, which is very comfortable. His desk was made of poplar wood, neat and beautiful, and there was a new lamp sent by his sister on it. In addition, at Li Liang's request, the master carpenter used camphor wood to build a bookshelf for Li Liang, which was very practical.

"It's good to be rich!" Li Liang sat at his desk and said to himself.

In his previous life, after graduating from secondary school, he was assigned to teach in Xima Township Central Primary School, and worked as a teacher for several years before being transferred to the township government. At that time, the school and township governments could only barely guarantee that wages could be paid, and the welfare benefits were more than a little worse than those of later generations. He and Chenchen were married for several years before the old yard was torn down and rebuilt with the financial support of his parents.

And now, before I was in high school, my family had built such a good house. Sometimes seeing the pride and satisfaction in the eyes of his parents, Li Liang is also very relieved.

"Ryoko, let's go downstairs to eat!"

I don't know how long it took, my sister's voice came from downstairs.

"Okay, come down right away!" Li Liang responded.

Li Liang's house now has a total of three floors, and there are four storefronts on the first floor facing the road, which are still empty for the time being. On the first floor, facing the food company's family home, there is a kitchen, toilet, and dining room. Usually, the family eats on the first floor, but only when there are guests, they will eat in the large restaurant on the second floor.

The dining room on the first floor is a small table one meter square, and a family of four eats around the table. Li Meng's craftsmanship is good, and several dishes are made vividly.

"Son, I heard from your sister just now, are you going to let your second uncle go to Mr. Yang's investment company to be a kiwifruit planting consultant?" Wang Xiulan asked with a mouthful of food.

"Yes, Mom!" Li Liang took a bite of water spinach and said while chewing, "Mr. Yang will come over tomorrow, and when he finishes his inspection, I will ask the county to start the planting plan." I'm going to go to high school in September, and I definitely won't have so much energy to focus on this at that time, and I'll be like letting my second uncle represent me with full authority at that time.

You all know the second uncle, he is a very good person, and he started growing kiwifruit last year, and he has a lot of experience, so I think it is very suitable for him to be this consultant. What do you say?"

"Yes, my parents are worried about whether someone will gossip when the time comes!" Wang Xiulan said.

Li Liang's father, Li Shuangzhu, also nodded on the side.

Both of them are very simple people and are unwilling to take advantage of the public. Although Mr. Yang is willing to invest, it is because people have the mentality of doing good deeds and doing charity, but it does not mean that people are willing to be fooled. Li Shuangzhu and his wife Wang Xiulan are a little worried that their son will do such a big thing at a young age, and their hearts will float. If you arrange it in this way, it is easy to provoke other people's gossip.

Li Liang knew what his parents were like, and he comforted: "Mom, Dad, don't worry." I have a sense of proportion, I will first agree with Mr. Yang, if he does not agree, I will not force the second uncle to come in as a consultant!"

"It's good if you're measured!" Li Shuangzhu said.

During the time he came back from Pengcheng, in addition to being busy moving for the past two days, he was still anxious about the things in the factory at other times. There is such a big thing in the factory, and the workshop director Liu Honghong is a good gentleman, and no one wants to offend him. Li Shuangzhu can only be a bad guy, trying his best to restrain the workers in the workshop, asking everyone to take the factory as their home and control the quality of the factory.

But to be honest, it's too tiring to do such a thing. After all, Li Shuangzhu is only the deputy director of the workshop, and all the thoughts in the factory, from the factory director to the secretary, from the secretary to the chairman of the trade union, are all focused on fighting for power and profit. Relying on Li Shuangzhu's strength alone is really a drop in the bucket.

Li Liang looked at his father and frowned, and asked with concern, "Dad, hasn't the matter in the factory been solved yet?"

"There is no way to solve it, the supply and marketing cooperatives are determined to return the goods!" Li Shuangzhu sighed and continued, "But if this batch of goods is returned to our factory, there will be no place for our factory to sell them again! Don't look at the fact that there are still so many assets in the factory, but in fact, there is not much liquidity in the bank account. It is said that next month's salary may be halved!"

"Is it so serious?" asked Li Liang.

"Yes!" Wang Xiulan said, "Fortunately, our family has you, and the family still has some money." Those who wait for their wages to support their families will have a hard time then!"

Li Shuangzhu and his family met and got married after entering the factory, and since Li Liangda was born, most of the friends of his parents were employees of the textile factory. When Li Liang was a child, he was picked up by his mother every day after work since he was in kindergarten. On weekends, when my parents work overtime, I often play alone in the open space in the factory. To be honest, Li Liang has a deep affection for the textile factory.

But having feelings is one thing, and now in the situation of the textile factory, Li Liang has no good way for the time being.

Although he knows that the 30 years of reform and opening up are the 30 years of vigorous development of China's textile industry. In the process of the development of the private economy, many entrepreneurs have made a fortune from the textile industry.

But the point is that it is only 1981, and it is okay to make a small fuss in the county, and if you really make the private economy go on par with the fool at the helm of Hui Province, then you are really in the water!
