Dress up as an eighty-year-old girl, earn money and learn to do everything

Chapter 90 Coal
Ah Sheng could tell that the boss had a bad look on his face, but he couldn't figure out why, so he turned his head and looked at Xiang Wan with a hey smile: "Xiao Wan, how much watermelon do you have? I want to buy some back for my family to taste. This summer Bought one is terrible."

Peng Qingliang looked at Xiang Wan brightly.

"There is only one in the family." Seeing the disappointment of the two, Xiang Wan curled his lips and said, "But I can ask someone to send more."

Peng Qingliang pulled away A Sheng who was standing in front of him, and looked at Xiang Wan with a 'wretched' smile: "Xiao Wan, how much can you send over? Look, you didn't bring me back this watermelon last year." , I was overwhelmed by the question from the people above, this time you have to bring back a few hundred catties for Brother.”

Seeing that Peng Qingliang opened his mouth to weigh a few hundred pounds, and Xiang Wan was still smiling, Ah Sheng knew that he should go out, so he turned his head and left quickly.

"You are satisfied with a few hundred catties? It's a pity. This time I sent someone to send three thousand catties. It's a pity."

Peng Qingliang jumped up on the spot, the corners of his mouth almost reaching his ears, and he pulled Xiang Wan's hand excitedly and said, "Three thousand catties! Then I'll go to withdraw the money now, you sit here for a while."

"No, it's probably the day after tomorrow. Why are you in a hurry? My dad said you have something to do with me. What's the matter?"

Only then did Peng Qingliang stop, turned around and went to the desk in the inner room to fetch a document and put it in front of Xiang Wan, his brows and eyes were full of joy.

This is the latest policy issued from above to vigorously support the people in doing business.

Xiang Wan looked up carefully and then raised his head: "It seems that our previous decision was correct."

"It's more than correct, that's quite correct. The workshop on the factory side has already been built, and only the dormitory building is left. It will be completed at the end of next month. How is your design drawing here? I have contacted the machinery and equipment, and so on." In a few days, someone will pull it back."

Xiang Wan nodded: "I've got everything ready here, first I'll give you a quarterly drawing, summer is not long, and then I will make autumn and winter clothes, I also drew a few styles of bags and leather shoes, see if you can find someone Get some skins back."

"Okay, I'll figure it out, and I'll go to your house to get the blueprints later."

Peng Qingliang hired a lot of workers to build the factory building, and the factory building is simple and does not require any layout, so it was built very quickly.

In the future, it will take some time for the dormitory building for employees.

The layout of the dormitory building was also Xiang Wan's idea, and it was slightly adjusted by referring to the layout of later generations of apartments; first, two dormitory buildings were built, each with three floors and six rooms on each floor, and each room accommodated two people; There are a lot of people here, and if you want to make money in the future, you don’t have to worry about expanding the scale. Just build two more buildings at that time. Anyway, Peng Qingliang won the whole piece of land there; People build yards, and it will be convenient to go to the factory at that time.

The garment factory is only part of Xiang Wan's plan. After graduating from university, Xiang Wan plans to start a real estate business. In the past few years, he has worked hard to make money.

After the two finished talking, Xiang Wan went home and took out another watermelon from the platform when there was no one else on the way.

Xiang Xiong was chopping firewood in the yard with an axe. Seeing him sweating profusely, Xiang Wan couldn't help but said, "Dad, we're burning coal and gas now, why don't we send a truckload of coal over another day."

Xiang Xiong smiled and put down the axe: "You don't understand now, food made from coal doesn't taste as good as firewood. Gas is fine, but you can still buy some charcoal to boil water."

Beishi began to popularize coal gas in the early 1980s. The most advanced is natural gas liquefied gas, but most people still use coal, and fewer people use firewood.

There is a coal stove in the kitchen in Wangbei Lane, but there is no need to ask people to set it up, just ask people to bring coal.

As for natural gas, even though Xiang Wan thought it was cheap and easy to use, Xiang Xiong was in charge of the cooking, and there was nothing he could do if he didn't want to use Xiang Wan.

Now there are about [-] coals per ton, and one can be burned for an hour; larger coals cost five cents each, and smaller coals cost four cents.

Seeing that his daughter was silent for a long time, Xiang Xiong thought she was still thinking about the gas, so he smiled and said, "The gas that came out two years ago is not used by anyone around here, and I don't need it, so I might as well buy some. When the coal comes back, buy two more stoves and put them in the house, don’t you keep saying that it’s cold in winter, and when the time comes to burn the stoves in the house, it will be warm.”

Two years ago, Xiang Guan was extremely cold in the winter, and the cold wind was blowing into his bones. At that time, he didn't think about coal. In the end, Xiang Xiong went to the hospital to find a friend and brought some glass bottles back to add hot water.

The winter without air-conditioning and electric blankets is particularly difficult for Xiang Wan.

At this time, after hearing Xiang Xiong's suggestion, Xiang Guan nodded hastily: "Have someone set up two stoves in the house, and buy coal stoves for the other two rooms. In winter, you won't be cold while reading homework and making clothes."

"Okay, I'll find someone to fix it tomorrow morning."

After speaking, Xiang Xiong noticed the watermelon in his daughter's hand, and his eyes lit up: "Where did you buy the watermelon? It's quite big."

"Given it by a friend, Dad, you go wash your face, and I'll cut the watermelon."

In the end, the father and daughter sat on a deck chair under the eaves, talking and eating watermelon.

Xiang Xiong was full of praise for the watermelon.

Lying on the bed at night, Xiang Wan took the time to exchange three thousand catties of watermelon and three thousand catties of lychees on the platform, both of which are summer fruits and are also popular in Beishi.

The next day Xiang Wan went to school early, while Xiang Xiong went out to contact the coal seller.

When Xiang Wan came back at noon, coal was piled up in a corner of the yard. After asking, he found out that Xiang Xiong bought a ton of coal for 40 yuan and put it away.

Looking at the piles of coal, Xiang Wan couldn't help laughing: "Dad, when will we use up so much?"

Xiang Xiong didn't care: "Use it slowly, I've already bought two coal stoves, and I'll invite someone to come to my house in the afternoon to start another two, so you don't have to be afraid of the cold in winter."

Beishi is no better than the Northeast. Almost no one in Beishi uses a kang. If you don't have a way to keep warm in winter, it will probably be freezing enough.

After hearing this, Xiang Wan nodded and said nothing.

There was a well in the yard. Xiang Xiong put the leftover half of the watermelon in the well to freeze it. The sun was shining right now. After lunch, Xiang Xiong took the watermelon and cut it into small pieces.

"Don't say that this watermelon is really cool to eat, once you eat it, you know it wasn't grown in Beishi."

"Outside watermelons, Beishi is not suitable for growing them. If you like to eat them, I will bring back two more tomorrow."

Xiang Xiong couldn't stop nodding: "Then take four, give one to your aunt Fu, Uncle Deng and your aunt, and keep one to eat slowly at home."

"it is good."

"Xiao Peng told you about the situation over there in the factory. You chose that place well. I heard from Xiao Peng that you bought that piece of land?"
