Reborn in the 1980s, remarried and followed a soldier, the ungrateful wretch cried with regret.

Chapter 312 Good heavens, is there really that much prize money?

When Director Geng heard this, he smiled.
He knew that although Fu Mingxue was young, she was actually more reliable than anyone else.

"Then I'll wait for you."

He then took a thick envelope out of the drawer.

"what is this?"

"Remember that water pump drawing you revised? The prototype is finished, and after several rounds of testing, it's excellent. We're ready to put it into production. Here's a bonus of one thousand yuan for you."

Fu Mingxue's eyes lit up.

She couldn't refuse the money.

"Thank you, Director Geng. If there are any good opportunities like this in the future, feel free to come to me. I promise it won't take up your work time."

What's wrong with wanting to earn a side hustle?

After all, she has a system that burns through money.

Having money allows you to learn more advanced knowledge from the system.

Without money—how can she study?
The basic principles of internal combustion engines, dynamics, and all sorts of books on them are far superior to what we have today.

What you learn is priceless.

Director Geng looked at her delighted expression.

I finally understood this aspect of her personality—her love of money.

Still, it's pretty good.

After all, what she loves is the legal income she has earned from her knowledge.

As long as one's patriotism remains unchanged—a few minor flaws are truly insignificant.

Fu Mingxue got home quite early.

When Fu's mother saw that she had returned home so early, which was unusual for her, she was also surprised. "Why are you home so early today?"

"The project has come to an end, so I'll have a two-week break. Perfect timing, I need to go back to Beijing for my school exams. Mom, why don't you come back to Beijing with me for the next two weeks?"

"You're on vacation for half a month? Going back to Beijing?" Fu's mother was pleasantly surprised, but also somewhat tempted.

"Yes, Mom, why don't we go back together and take a look? Perfect timing, we can air out all the things at home that need to be dried."

Fu's mother was persuaded, but she still considered the money issue—after all, the round trip would cost quite a bit of money.

Or maybe we shouldn't waste the money.

Fu Mingxue could easily see what was causing her hesitation.

She took the thick envelope out of the bag. "Mom, guess what this is?" Fu's mother's gaze fell on the large, thick envelope. "What is this?"

"The bonus is for a water pump I designed for the factory last time. It's a total of one thousand yuan."

Upon hearing the number, Mrs. Fu's eyes widened suddenly. "How much?"

Fu Mingxue said, "Keep your voice down, it's one thousand."

Mother Fu: ...?
Good heavens.

A prize of one thousand.

She felt dizzy.

Someone please come and help her up.

Trying to calm herself, she asked incredulously:

"Is this really a bonus from the factory?"

She had never heard of any factory giving out a bonus of one thousand yuan—it was truly terrifying.

Could it be that her daughter tricked her into going back to Beijing with her?
This damn girl.

They've even tried to fool me.

Fu Mingxue: ? ...

"Look at this envelope, where is it from?"

Seeing her mother's disbelief, she handed her the envelope containing the money. "Look for yourself, it's all brand new ten-yuan notes."

When Fu's mother took the envelope, she saw that it was stamped with the seal of her daughter's workplace.

Then she carefully opened it—it was full of brand new unity notes, still smelling of pleasant ink.

"Really, it's a bonus?"

"Of course, why would I lie to you about this? But don't tell anyone else." Fu Mingxue lowered her voice.

Fu's mother rolled her eyes at her, "Do you need to tell me that?"

She's lived so long and still doesn't know the principle of not flaunting wealth?

However, the heavy sum of money made her heart race.

Her dad—did you see that? Your daughter is really amazing.

What others earn in several years, her daughter earns in a month.
