Chapter 237: Late Benefits
Chapter 237: Late Welfare
After nearly a year in Xindu, I finally received an order from the military one night to go to the capital three days later to attend a national convention.
I went to the meeting with some of the main figures of the Goddess Legion, and by the way, I also went to visit Chen Lao and Chen Jing's parents and relatives.
In the nearly one year since the end of the war, China has had a relatively stable period. It was also in this year that our economy recovered a little, and the lives of the common people were better.
And the most gratifying thing is that during this year, many countries and regions that did not have economic relations with China have come to China to discuss cooperation matters. They saw the power of Huaxia and knew that now was the most suitable time to cooperate with Huaxia, and it would be difficult to have such an opportunity if they missed it.
With the cooperation between other countries and our China, our economic development has been stimulated, and the strength of China's recovery has also been enhanced.
Because the capital was so badly damaged by the war, it was no longer suitable to continue as the capital of China, but moved the capital to the current new capital. Therefore, our construction task was advanced, and the chiefs asked all the personnel of our Goddess Legion to unconditionally devote themselves to the construction and ensure that the construction task of the Sixth Avenue was completed by the end of this year.
This shortened our time by a year, and we had to add more staff and select a number of trusted people from outside who had construction experience to join the construction team.
In this way, the number of construction workers under the jurisdiction of our Legion of the Goddess, including our own warriors, has reached a staggering 300,000. That's a lot more than all of our people combined, and it also caused some minor problems with our management.
If there are more people, there will be rivers and lakes. This is an old saying, and now it can be changed to another sentence, that is, there will be contradictions when there are more people.
If there is a conflict, there is a need to mediate, so we have to start trying to find a way to contact the local police and get them to participate in our security work to make sure that there are no problems with the people who are brought in from the local area.
The local police also acted as a liaison between us and the locals during the construction process, providing us with a lot of help and reducing our workload.
After knowing our difficulties, Elder Chen also transferred some troops to us for unified command and use, which can be regarded as indirectly helping us.
After the new time and task were issued, we all got nervous and devoted ourselves to our work, feeling that if we didn't hurry up, we would definitely not be able to complete the task, and it would be difficult for us to blame it when the time came.
The Queen Mother is also in charge of this matter herself, so I am a little more relaxed than before, and every day I am in charge of finishing my own work, and then I go to practice, or accompany my children and family.
Time passed slowly, and I always thought that it would not be a bad thing to go on like this, until one day Chen Jing found me and asked me for living expenses.
I'm really not a good person to be in charge, because I don't have the heart and energy to take care of those little things. So when our family was about to run out of food, I found out that I hadn't taken a penny home for more than a year, and Chen Jing was managing the food, clothing and housing at home alone, and the money was also spent on her own.
This is not a good thing, and I immediately feel like a fight. I don't know how to make money, and I don't know how to manage it well, so after receiving Chen Jing's notice, I don't know what to do.
Chen Jing said, "Do you still have money?" Take it out first to help the emergency, and when the military remembers to pay you some salary, we'll talk about other things. ”
I remembered that I had saved a sum of money with Li Huanhuan before, so I said, "Find Sister Huanhuan, she should still have money in her hand." That's the money we made by investing in new energy sources before, and there should be some of it. ”
Chen Jing nodded, and said with a hint of complaint: "You are also a deputy commander, why have you not been paid for several years?" You don't know to ask and see what's going on......"
I nodded: "I'll ask, I shouldn't know my account or something, so I didn't post it." That's fine, it's considered that I've saved a sum of money, and I can take it out later, just enough to pay for a few children's tuition......"
Chen Jing smiled, and I panicked when I laughed: "Don't think so far, think about how to feed our family." We are a big family now, and we need a lot of money, if you ignore it like this, I really don't know what to do, or you should take care of the life of this family yourself. ”
I immediately stood up, hugged Chen Jing, who was a little angry, and whispered, "I was wrong, I'm sorry, I didn't care about you...... Jing'er, don't be angry, I'll ask Elder Chen now, if I have a salary, I will come over immediately, and I will hand it all over to you, leaving no ......."
Chen Jing laughed out loud, broke free from my arms, and said, "You, you don't know how to hurt people!" There are so many children in the family, each of whom has to eat milk powder, and every day needs a lot of money. You don't have to worry about it, I have to do everything...... I was on the verge of quitting! You go and ask for money now, I don't want the child to cry after a while! ”
I hurriedly comforted Chen Jing and said secretly: "It's really hard for a penny to be a hero, and I'm also a deputy commander." was forced to be helpless by the child's milk powder money. ”
After thinking about it, the money still has to be earned, so I called Chen Lao as soon as possible. On the phone, I was very euphemistic about my salary, but Chen Lao didn't embarrass me, and said that he would send me a one-time remittance in a few days.
I put down the phone and was happy, and smiled at Chen Jing: "Look at it, the chief said that it will be sent over in a few days." I'll go find Sister Huanhuan now, she must still have some money, don't worry. ”
Chen Jing left without saying a word, looking a little angry. I hurried to find Li Huanhuan, and it happened that she was looking for me to have something, so I met her at the door.
I've always been direct, and I said, "Is there any money?" ”
Li Huanhuan's face changed, and he said in a cold voice: "When did you start asking about money?" ”
I know she's actually been uncomfortable all the time because of my flowery heart. So I said cautiously: "Just now Chen Jing said that there is no money, and the family expenses are too big...... Do you still have money? I...... I want to take a little out of the flowers. ”
Li Huanhuan still said with a cold face: "You still marry so many wives without money?" I really don't know the difficulties of life......" paused, but she said: "The money is in the bank, I don't know the specific number, it used to be handed over to the energy company, and they will give us dividends every month." But I've been busy before, and I haven't checked how much money I have...... Why don't you ask Sister Hui and see how much money we have......"
I remember that we did invest in Sister Hui's mother's emerging energy research base before, and we also made some money. But I don't know what happened later, Li Huanhuan did it alone.
Now Li Huanhuan said that if you ask Sister Hui, you will know how much money we have, so I plan to ask Zhou Hui directly.
In fact, I can also ask next Zhou Hui's mother directly, that is, my mother-in-law Zhong Ping, who I haven't seen for a long time, but in this case, I will have to face Zhong Ping, who may still be angry with me, and I am a little scared, so I don't plan to do it.
Speaking of Zhong Ping, there was a small incident that happened before, that is, not long after we got married, Zhong Ping called Zhou Hui and asked Zhou Hui to leave me, saying that I was too attentive and would definitely be like Zhou Hui's father, and finally abandon Zhou Hui. This call made Zhou Hui and Bai Feng very worried, they had seen the abandoned Zhong Ping, so they were most afraid of such a thing.
My family and I almost took turns to persuade Zhou Hui and Bai Feng to put their minds at ease. But the result of this incident is that Zhou Hui and Bai Feng did not leave me, but Zhong Ping hated me and refused to meet me, not even Zhou Hui. Even when Zhou Hui gave birth to a child, she didn't come to see the child.
That's why I'm so afraid to meet Zhong Ping, or talk on the phone.
I found Zhou Hui, and before she could speak, she had already said, "Don't you have any money to spend?" I saw that Jing'er was very worried, and I knew that our family had no money to spend. ”
I smiled wryly and said with some embarrassment, "You guessed it, we really don't have the money to spend......"
Zhou Hui smiled: "It's okay, don't worry, I still have some money in my hand, enough to support our family for two or three years." I'll take it out and give it to Jing'er, she knows how to use the money. ”
I shook my head and hurriedly grabbed Zhou Hui, who was about to leave: "Don't, we can't spend your money, we should still have money, it's the ...... who invested in emerging energy before"
Zhou Hui smiled: "What is my money, your money, aren't they all a family, why are you so clear?" ”
I smiled and said, "Don't use your money yet, when my children go to school in the future, if I have no money, I can just pay for my children's tuition." ”
Zhou Hui looked at me and said with some surprise: "Is this good?" Jing'er had spent all her money before, if we left some money, would she have any ideas? ”
I thought for a moment: "It's hard to say, maybe she really has an idea...... So be it, wait for my salary...... No, you can help me see how much money Li Huanhuan and I have invested in your mother's company, if it is enough, I will give Chen Jing some to supplement her previous expenses. ”
Zhou Hui nodded and said, "I asked earlier, there is some money, which should be enough for our family's living expenses." I'm going to contact the bank and see if I can get the money out now. ”
I was overjoyed, and while asking Zhou Hui to help me get the money, I called Li Huanhuan. This must be agreed by Li Huanhuan, because the money is all earned by her investment, and it is said that I have no right to use it.
After solving the matter in front of me, I didn't really put my mind at ease, because there are indeed too many people in our family, and we need a lot more money than ordinary families. And in the coming period, the population of our family should be more and more.
It's not an easy thing to do, and I'm going to find a way to make some money. I always let my wife support myself, I don't think it's appropriate, and it doesn't look good on the face.
If I wasn't a soldier, it would be easier, I could look for a job again, or simply open my own factory, or start a company or something, and I would always find a way to make money. It's a pity that none of this is realistic for me, after all, I am a military man, and I can't do these things against the rules.
So I thought of a way that a soldier could do and make money, and that was to invest in the military's enterprises and share dividends from them.
To put it bluntly, this is the same as what Li Huanhuan did before, but I chose to be different from her. I chose the military's weapons production enterprises, while Li Huanhuan chose energy companies.
I didn't have any money, so I thought of handing over all my salary in recent years to Chen Jing and asking her to send most of it to military enterprises for investment. At the current pace of development of China's military enterprises, they will definitely make a lot of money in the future.
In particular, high-tech weapons such as laser guns will definitely be very large in the market in the future. But if you want to make money, it will be very easy.
That's what I've been thinking about, and it's the most appropriate way I've thought of making money during this time.
Hopefully, my salary will be higher, and my current financial difficulties will be solved.
After continuing to work as a laborer on the construction site for about a week, I finally received a call from Mr. Chen, telling me that my salary had been accounted for and that it had been transferred to my account through the bank.
This made me very happy, and after thanking Mr. Chen, I quickly went to the bank to check. Not to mention, it has been more than eight years since I joined the military with Elder Chen, that is, almost a hundred months.
I don't know how they paid me, but the money I received was about 200,000 yuan. I looked at the number on the bank card and sighed with emotion, 200,000 yuan in 100 months, it seems that there are almost 2,000 yuan per month, which is not bad.
Chen Jing, who came with me to withdraw the money, was very dissatisfied, and whispered in my ear: "Why is it only 200,000?" I thought you would have at least a million or so. ”
I thought it was strange: "A million? Does that mean I have 10,000 yuan a month? How is this possible? ”
Chen Jing said: "How is it impossible? You have been born and died for Huaxia for so long, one million is not much at all, if it were another country, let alone a million, ten million is possible. I really don't know how they did it, and they want to beat us up for this little money? Hmph, I'll go to my grandfather in a while and ask, how can you bully us like this? ”
I didn't know how much salary I should get, but I thought that 200,000 yuan would be good, so I didn't say anything, and Chen Jing still called Chen Lao.
In fact, even if I don't know what the current per capita salary is, I also know that my monthly income of only 2,000 yuan is relatively small. If nothing else, let's just say that some people around me, even if they are ordinary soldiers, have an allowance of tens of thousands of yuan a year, and they don't know 2,000 yuan a month.
So in my heart, I still approve of Chen Jing to ask what is going on, and I also have doubts about this in my heart.
Chen Jing called Chen Lao here and got the answer. I was only paid this year's salary, and no one had ever said how to make it up to me. In other words, it means that I will only be paid this year, and it was all for nothing.
Chen Jing was furious after hearing this answer, and argued with Chen Lao in front of many people, and said that he would definitely figure out this matter.
I was worried that Chen Jing's excitement would anger Chen Lao, so I quietly pulled Chen Jing and motioned her to stop talking.
Chen Jing said goodbye to Chen Lao and suppressed the anger in her heart.
We took the 200,000 yuan we just arrived, and for a while we didn't know whether to take it back for living expenses or invest in military enterprises. It's definitely not enough to invest 200,000 yuan, but if you spend it for living expenses, it's gone, and it's still gone.
I was very conflicted in my heart, looking at Chen Jing smiling helplessly, waiting for her to come up with an idea.
Chen Jing was also speechless, looking at me and sighing again and again, and finally decided to ensure the living expenses of the whole family first, as for the idea of investing and making money, it could only be temporarily put on hold.
This belated benefit actually makes me feel extremely uncomfortable. And the happy feeling that I thought would get better as long as I got this money has completely changed now. Now, I really want to find a place where no one can sit and calm down.
After eight years of war, I completely lost the basic ability to make money that everyone knows, and I became very disconnected from life. I should think about what I should do in the future, and I can't concentrate on any war anymore.
It's ridiculous to think about it, I'm almost thirty years old, and I think that no one will believe it......
