Chapter 100: Annual Collection

Zhao Hao didn't remember it until he finished eating at Wei Jixian and returned to Lengxiangyuan.

Oh yes, that person is Fang Wen, Zhao Erye's little scholar!

No, now that Dad doesn't need a scholar anymore, Fang Wen has also moved to a secret front that is more suitable for him.

He now has two identities, on the surface he is a special inspector of the inspection and supervision committee of the Jiangnan Group, and he also has a secret identity, which is the head of the special operations section of the security department of the Singularity Investment Foundation.

Singularity Investment is a private shareholding platform owned by Zhao Gongzi, holding 34% of Jiangnan Group, 26.32% of Xishan, 11.8% of Lugouqiao, 50% of Weijixian, 70% of Kokurayama, and 20% of Jiangnan Sugar.

It also wholly owns the Xishan Island Research Center and its subordinate arsenal.

Yes, the guns and ammunition equipped by the security team and the Tamna garrison area were not produced by Jiangnan Group, but purchased from Zhao Gongzi's private enterprise.

This is done in order to isolate itself from the group, so that in the event of a sudden change in the situation in the future, the group may be disconnected. The second is to prevent leaks. Third, it is also to curb the ambitions that may breed at the top of the group in the future.

If you have money, some people, food and guns, I'm afraid that if you don't get happy, you will learn from the iron bull and shout against him.

In addition, the research results of the Xishan Island Research Center will be shared with Jiangnan Group in the form of joint ventures. For example, in 'Jiangnan Glass', there is a 30% stake in the research center. The dividends will be mainly used for reinvestment in scientific research and improving the treatment of scientific researchers.

Although at the moment, Zhao Gongzi still has to put money in it...... Half of the 2 million taels obtained from the sale of Xishan's shares were subsidized to the research center...... But with Arsenal and Jiangnan Glass starting to make a profit, the situation should improve considerably.

At present, the headquarters of the foundation is also located in Xishan Island, with his most trusted disciple Hua Shuyang as the chairman and Zhang Jian as the vice chairman and director of the research center.

It can be said that ninety percent of Zhao Gongzi's assets are in this fund, and this fund is his lifeblood, so he naturally has to protect it.

Therefore, the Foundation has set up a security department, with Gao Wu as the director.

The Security Service consists of six sections.

The first section of the security section is responsible for the personal safety of Zhao Gongzi's family, and Gao Wu personally serves as the section chief.

The Internal Security Section of the Second Section is responsible for the internal security of the research center, arsenal, glass factory, sugar factory and other confidential departments on Xishan Island, with Cai Ming, deputy director, as the section chief.

The General Affairs Section of the Three Sections is responsible for internal affairs, intelligence transmission and summary, and confidential documents.

The North Section of the Fourth Section is responsible for intelligence collection in Beijing and the monitoring of the Xishan Group, with Siya's husband Wu Yu as the section chief.

The Nanyang Section of the Fifth Branch is responsible for intelligence collection in the direction of Fujian, Guangdong and the South China Sea, with Tang Baolu as the section chief.

The Special Operations Section of the Sixth Section is responsible for the monitoring of Jiangnan and Jiangnan Group, and carries out the secret tasks assigned by Zhao Hao, with Fang Wen as the section chief.

Since Section Chief Fang took office, he has unknowingly punished the two brothers Xu Fan and Xu Ying, and even they themselves have been kept in the dark.

During Zhao Hao's absence in China, he was also ordered to monitor the movements of the group's top management. This kid's specialty finally came into play, and he followed the group's executives closely, never being noticed. Even if others have met him, they will forget it all when they turn their heads......

That's a good thing, isn't it?

~~

Zhao Hao and his entourage took a boat out of Suzhou City at noon.

Fortunately, near the end of the year, there were many fewer cargo ships coming and going on the Loujiang River, and they arrived in Kunshan before dusk, and did not delay the sacrifice to the God of Wealth at night.

After twenty-four, it will be the year in the blink of an eye.

This year, Kunshan County has not been flooded for the first time, and everyone has land and jobs, and at the end of the year, they have more or less surplus money in their hands, so it is natural to have a prosperous year.

So every family was jubilant and busy and began to be busy in the New Year, grinding tofu for twenty-five years, killing pigs for twenty-six, slaughtering chickens for twenty-seven years, and catching up with the big gathering......

On the twenty-seventh day, there are annual fairs in the county seat and in the town of Luhe. As soon as the sky was bright, the people of Kunshan flocked to these two places from all directions to rush to buy New Year's goods.

Li Hua and his family also took three children, and rowed a boat early to catch the big set.

Although the family of five did not wear silk and satin, they were all dressed cleanly, and eighty percent of the new cotton robes looked very decent. As soon as the children arrived at the set, they were happy, looking at the dazzling array of things, and they wanted this and that.

Li Hua didn't frown, and the child wanted to buy anything. It didn't take long for him and Miwa to carry large bags and small bags in their hands.

The girl riding on his neck was eating the sugar gourd, and at the same time, she was still looking around excitedly to see what delicious and fun things to buy!

Liang led his youngest son to the side, and reprimanded his daughter angrily: "I've become a little fat pig, and I'm still buying, buying, buying." ”

Then he said to her husband: "Don't let them go, buy so much and go back, my mother will nag and burn buns again." ”

"It's up to the children for the New Year. Isn't it just for the sake of spending hard to make money? Li Hua grinned nonchalantly, picked up a flower from the stall, inserted it in his daughter-in-law's sideburns, and praised: "It's so beautiful." ”

He asked Miwa again, "Is that right, son?" ”

Miwa is fourteen years old, boarding and studying at Yufeng Primary School, with meat and eggs for three meals a day, and it is still free. This kid has grown so big, he can finally eat with his belly open, and his height has risen gradually, and now he is taller than his mother.

By the way, Mr. also gave him a tuba called Li Jiaqi, which means the genius of the Li family......

Although Li Jiaqi was tall, he didn't change his voice, and immediately echoed his father: "Buy it, buy it, buy it, you are a fairy!" ”

"Virtue." Liang's ears were red, but he didn't take them off.

"Boss, how much?" Li Hua asked the stall owner loudly.

"The guest officer has a good eye, this costs a hundred wen." The stall owner laughed busily.

"Why is it so expensive?" Liang was a little distressed.

"This lady has taken a closer look, the materials and handiwork of this silk flower, as well as the big pearl on it, are not expensive at all if you want a hundred yuan." The stall owner was busy.

"Bought it, bought it." Li Hua took out a small amount of silver tickets, also called bronze tickets, and ordered a few to pay.

He is now a team leader in the 3rd Squad of the 9th Engineering Team of the Kunkaisi Engineering Agency. The team leader is a regular employee of the group, and the salary is much better than that of temporary workers.

Moreover, the regular worker has a rank, and he is now a professional bricklayer of the second class, with a salary of four cents of silver per month. Plus one tael per fixed salary, half a tael of the salary of the team leader, and the monthly fixed income is one tael or nine.

In the second half of the year, he followed the engineering team to Tamna Island to build Xingang City, and there was an overseas work allowance of six dollars per month. Coupled with the bonus at the end of the year, this year, thirty taels of silver will be in hand. It's already worth the income of two skilled workers elsewhere.

Money is heroic courage, rich and courageous!

In fact, Liang also got his wish to work in the Kunshan Silk Factory under Jiangnan Textile, she worked quickly, skillfully, and also had a twenty-two income in a year.

In addition, the family's land rent is given to Kun Kaisi, although the number of acres is not much, but the land rent alone can withstand the rations and daily expenses of the whole family, so the fifty taels of the two of them are purely earned. It's definitely a high income in Kunshan.

But she was not as easy to fool as Li Hua, and she bargained expressionlessly: "You are worth twenty wen." ”

"What are you kidding?" The stall owner said angrily: "At least eighty wen, less than one penny will not be sold." ”

"Love to sell or not to sell." Liang plucked the head flower.

"The lady is a bit ruthless." The stall owner said depressedly: "Seventy Wen." ”

"Let's go." Liang put down his head flower and pulled his youngest son to leave.

"Come back, come back, it's not ...... to add a little more" The stall owner saw that he had met a master, and he had no choice but to give up resistance.

"That's all." Liang took out three silver coupons worth ten cents from her husband's hand, then picked up the head flower and carefully put it in her sleeve.

"Well, let's make a friend." The stall owner reluctantly took the money and said to Li Hua: "Your lady is really amazing." ”

"Yes, I'm in charge." Li Hua didn't care at all, smiled and carried his daughter, and continued to go shopping with his wife.

The family also bought firecrackers, Spring Festival couplets, incense candles, roasted paper, raw meat, and braised vegetables for the New Year, and also bought two toys and gifts for the two children of the uncle's family, pulled cloth for several children and the old lady and sister-in-law, and bought two blue satin plush hats for Li Hua and his eldest brother.

Rao is Liang's bargaining skills, killing the whole street in the dark, but she can't stand buying too many things, or she doesn't want to feel distressed, and she can't help but complain that her husband spent money indiscriminately before, disrupting her plan.

Li Hua smiled at his son and said, "Look at your mother, the richer you are, the more stingy you are." ”

"You can't spend any money you have...... Li Jiaqi pouted.

"!" But he was shocked by his mother. "Next year, I plan to buy a house in the county, and I will save some money!"

"Oh." Miwa held her head and was honest.

~~

In the meantime, Chu Liuxiang also came to the market with his father. Compared with Li Hua's family, who are still a little picky, their family spends much more money.

The silk and satin cloth are bought in horses, the tea and rice wine are bought in jars, and the geese are bought in pairs...... He brought back a full three hundred taels this year, and he could afford to spend it.

Of course, this is also to buy a bride price for Chu Liuxiang's family affairs, otherwise his wife will not be willing to do such a trick.

Chu Liuxiang didn't wear his handsome police robe, and his home was still not as clean as the police force, and it was too troublesome to get dirty. He changed into a sauce-colored silk cotton robe, a blue cashmere jacket on the outside, and a six-hat on his head. With a bitter face, he copied it with both hands, and got rid of the stupid son of the landlord's family.

He didn't expect it to be so troublesome to get married, and it was to ask a matchmaker to propose marriage and look at the eight characters. It's been more than 20 days since I came back, and the wedding date hasn't even been set. There are two days left for the New Year, and my other cannon is designated to be useless years ago.

Alas, why is it so troublesome to marry a daughter-in-law? I heard from my colleagues that when you go to that kind of place, you can get on it by giving money......

ps. I had a headache all day today, and I should have stayed up late. The biological clock has to be set back. That said, I'll only send one chapter today, and I'll get up early tomorrow to write it.
