Chapter 201 I also want to work
Li Youcai was about to turn around and argue with the old woman when Chu Xinyan pulled him back.
"Forget it, let's just go."
People's minds are still very closed in this era, and many people even get married without ever meeting each other.
On the street, it is indeed rare to see people holding hands.
Li Youcai strolled on the street for a while and felt much better. His head was not so dizzy anymore.
"I feel much better. Let's go back. We can pack some food from the restaurant to take home tonight. This will save you from cooking."
"Ah."
The couple turned around and walked back.
On the way, Chu Xinyan pursed her lips, glanced at Li Youcai, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Youcai, I want to tell you something."
"Why are you being so polite to me? Just say it directly."
"The accounting class at the library is about to end, and I also want to have a job. Duoduo is already grown up now. I drop her off in the morning and pick her up in the evening. I don't have anything to do the rest of the day. It's a bit too boring."
While Chu Xinyan was speaking, she was looking at Li Youcai cautiously.
Li Youcai was silent for a moment after hearing this.
The farmers' market is managed by Li Youjie, and the Zhenweiju Restaurant is managed by Gao Dapeng. The finances are also handled by specially hired people. If Chu Xinyan is allowed to go there, Li Youcai is worried that Gao Dapeng will think too much and make it seem as if he does not trust him.
The bakery is jointly run with the flour mill. The flour mill also sent someone to take up an important position in the finance department. If he asked his wife to go to the finance department as well, the flour mill would not say anything.
After much thought, I think the bakery is the most suitable place.
"Have you really thought it through? It will be very hard to work outside." Li Youcai said to Chu Xinyan with a smile.
"I'm not afraid of hard work."
"I know I'm not as smart as you, nor as good at business as you, but I also want to help you share some of the burden, so that I will feel better." Chu Xinyan said.
"Okay, the finance department of the bakery is still short of someone. You have learned some accounting knowledge, so you can put it into practice there. Besides, the finance department of the bakery is staffed by experienced accountants, so you can learn from them." Li Youcai said.
Hearing this, Chu Xinyan was overjoyed.
"Don't worry, I will definitely learn from them."
Chu Xinyan was very happy after getting Li Youcai's promise.
Everyone has his or her own value, and Chu Xinyan doesn't want to remain unchanged forever, otherwise she will be even more unable to keep up with Li Youcai.
On the other hand, Li Youjie was worried about Huang Juan going to talk to their brigade secretary about purchasing corn alone, so he simply followed Huang Juan to Changxing Brigade.
Old Huang’s house.
Huang Laosan, who had just returned from Shangdi, was sitting in the yard, tidying up his sickle. The sickle was a little rusty because it had been left for a long time and was accidentally caught in the rain.
The corn harvest is almost here, and we will need this sickle to cut the corn stalks.
Huang Juan led Li Youjie into her yard and happened to see her father.
"Dad, I'm back."
"The old girl is back."
"uncle."
Huang Laosan looked up and saw Li Youjie: "Youjie is here too. Juanzi, go to Lao Wang's house and ask your mother to come back and cook two dishes. We'll have a couple of drinks later."
Huang Laosan's family is very satisfied with Li Youjie, the future son-in-law.
"My brother's restaurant has just opened. The chef is the descendant of the imperial chef. I specially asked the chef to prepare a few dishes and bring them over. You can try them later." Li Youcai was holding the packed food in one hand and two bottles of Maotai in the other.
"Really? Then I have to try it." Huang Laosan smiled, put down the sickle and grindstone in his hands, and stood up.
"My brother said that all the guests invited to the opening ceremony today are outsiders, and the family banquet is scheduled for the day after tomorrow. Juanzi and I came back specially to invite my uncle and aunt, my eldest brother, my second brother and others. We will have a great time together in a restaurant in the county town the day after tomorrow." Li Youjie continued.
"The day after tomorrow? Then I'll send a telegram to Brother Juanzi and tell him." Huang Laosan said, "Come in quickly, it's hot outside."
"Dad, don't put away the sickle yet. I want to tell you something." Huang Juan said.
"Anything else?" Huang Laosan didn't know what his daughter was going to do next.
"Let's talk inside." Huang Juan pulled Huang Laosan into the house.
After entering the house, Huang Juan expressed her idea of buying corn from the team and then selling it in the market.
Huang Laosan has been a farmer all his life. He knows everything about farming, but when it comes to doing business, Huang Laosan really knows nothing about it.
Just a little scared.
"My dear, how much is all that corn? What if I lose it?"
"Let's give it a try. I see so many people selling things in the market, and I haven't seen anyone lose money. Besides, I can buy a small amount first, sell one truckload, and then come back for another, and trade it slowly." Huang Juan had made up her mind and had already thought it through.
Li Youjie also smiled and looked at Huang Laosan: "Uncle, the market is ours. There is no rent. I can also help you contact a truck to transport corn. The freight is not much. It's just a matter of making more or less money. We won't lose money."
Li Youjie works in the market and has a good understanding of the fruit and vegetable sales business. The profit margin is usually between 30% and 50%. Corn itself is a seasonal ingredient. Out of season, corn will become old and can only be threshed, ground into powder, or used as raw material for producing corn starch.
If there are really some that cannot be sold, they will not be wasted.
Seeing Li Youjie say this, Huang Laosan finally felt a lot more at ease.
"Okay then, you've both got your eye on this, and Dad supports you. When your mom comes back, I'll ask her to get you the money."
Huang Juan's betrothal money was all in Tian Yulan's hands.
"Don't worry about the money, Dad. Come with me to find the brigade secretary and talk to him about this in advance. Otherwise, we can go alone. I'm afraid the brigade secretary won't sell it to me." Huang Juan said.
It is said that a man without a good mouth cannot do things well. Although Li Youjie is the manager of the farmers' market, he is too young after all. He works well in the market, but people here may not buy his tricks.
Huang Laosan is the production team leader in the brigade, and his words still carry some weight with the branch secretary.
"Go now?"
"Why don't you invite the Party Secretary home to talk? It would be a good opportunity for you and Youjie to have a few more drinks with him, eat our food and drink our wine. He wouldn't feel comfortable refusing. Isn't it said that things get done easily over a table of wine?"
Looking at the dishes and wine brought back by his future son-in-law, Huang Laosan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go find him now. You two set up the table and get ready."
