Chapter 176 telephone calls

The jiang family, a military compound in the capital.

"Beep!"

The phone rang three times. Jiang Zitong, who was playing in the living room, grabbed the phone and said, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

Li Haitang tightened her heart when she heard the child's voice coming from the other side. She had guessed that it might be Jiang Chuheng's nephew. She smiled politely and said, "Hello, little friend. My name is Li Haitang. I'm looking for Jiang Chuheng. Is he home?"

"Oh, hello, aunt. My little uncle is at home. Wait a minute." Jiang Zitong put down the microphone and howled upstairs, "Little uncle, aunt is calling for you. Come on."

Hearing his cheerful voice, Li Haitang couldn't help but smile, "Thank you."

"No thanks." Jiang Zitong smiled slyly, then pressed the hands-free button and shouted at the top of his voice, "Little uncle, stop whining, hurry up."

"Coming." Jiang chuheng responded, holding something in his hand, and walked down in three steps.

Chu Hongmei and his two daughters-in-law, daughter and niece were all in the living room. A few people were sitting around the table making dumplings. When they looked up, they saw him stride down and frown slightly, "Chu heng, slow down. Be careful you fall."

"No."

Jiang Chuheng picked up his nephew lying beside the phone and put him on his lap. He took the microphone and said, "Hey, haitang, you finally called."

"Ah? Chu heng, are you looking for me for something?" Li Haitang was stunned.

"You won't be able to find anyone when you get back to your hometown. I called your store and there was no answer at your classmate's house. I had to wait and see if you could remember to call me." When Jiang Chuheng spoke, he didn't even notice a trace of sadness.

Li Haitang smiled awkwardly, "I went back to my hometown in 28. I rarely stayed at home, so I didn't install the phone. My classmate's phone is in the new house in town. Their whole family is going back to the countryside this year for the new year. They only come to the new house occasionally to clean up, so I didn't get your call."

"I see. Okay, let's not talk about it. Is there something you want to talk to me about?" Jiang Chuheng knew that she was always a person who didn't call.

"Yes. Heh heh, there are two acquaintances who want to buy two trucks, the same kind that I bought in my shop, so I want to ask you for help." Li Haitang didn't waste time either, so he came straight to the point.

"Oh, okay, I'll call my brother later and ask him to send you two more." Jiang chuheng chuckled and said, "Thank you for taking care of your business. I'll treat you to dinner later."

"Ah?"

Li Haitang did not understand for a moment. He was stunned for a second before he realized it. He exaggeratedly said, "Chu heng, these cars are yours. You are the boss?"

"My brother is a big boss. I invested in stocks, and I invested in transocean, but we still don't care. I'll send you his contact number later. If you still need a car next time, I'll go straight to him." Jiang Chuheng had not told her about this before.

Li Haitang chuckled, "Okay, thank you. To be honest, I really need to buy a car. Dongming asked me to take over the dealership, and I have to buy a few more. Say hello to your brother first. I have a good car for you to keep. I'll probably contact him around may."

"Okay." Jiang chuheng responded and joked, "You, Xiaonizi, are really rich. I heard that you bought a small piece of land not long ago and bought a car. Now you have money to buy a few at once. Tsk tsk, envy!" His business was so big that he was in debt to the bank.

"Come on, you don't know what I have? I really don't have much money in my hands right now. I'm just chasing after Dongming. The land I bought can only be built at a slower pace. I can only start construction with his money." Li Haitang spoke to him in a much more casual tone, like two talkative friends.

"I still have some money in my hand. Why don't I lend it to you first?" Jiang Chuheng started using the same old trick again.

However, the result was the same: "No, your hotel is the key to expansion, I will not drag you down. If the money in Dongming is still going to be slow, I'll start another money-making plan."

Jiang Chuheng: ... "I knew you, Xiaonizi, must have a plan in mind. Say, what's the way to make money?"

"Heh heh, Editor zhou's help. You can guess for yourself. It's boring to say it out loud." Li Haitang smiled and said that she had only revealed the good news to him.

Jiang Chuheng raised his eyebrows and guessed a great possibility. The corners of his mouth were turned back to his ears, and he was not stingy with admiration, "Tsk tsk, you're really good!"

At this time, another nephew, Jiang Zicong, who had been learning how to make dumplings, came bouncing over. He got the order from his aunt, went up to Jiang Chuheng and said crisply, "Little uncle, ask aunt to send more bacon and chicken. Aunt wants to eat it."

Jiang chuqi smiled and said indulgently, "When can this kid not be so straightforward?"

Xia Yuping's eyes fell on his son's dumplings and made a joke, "Is it better to be as round as his dumplings?"

Chu Xiaoman was the first to cheer up. The dumpling was big and round, bigger than jiang zicong's hand. In Brother Four's previous words, it was a big meat bun for the chinese new year.

Li Haitang, who was on the other end of the phone, heard the child's honest expression and chuckled, "Chu heng, is that your nephew? He likes bacon?"

Jiang Zicong said to himself, "Aunt, I like the bacon you sent me. My family likes it. Last time you sent me too little, I only ate three pieces and it's gone."

Li Haitang: ... "Ahem, that little auntie will send you some more. But it's chinese new year tomorrow, and it may take days for the post office to send a package."

"Yes, yes, thank you, aunt." Jiang Zicong cheered, then bounced back to his aunt to ask for credit.

Jiang Chuheng smiled warmly and continued to talk to her, "I just called to ask you to send us some more bacon. There are too many people in the family. The last meal you sent me was over." It was true that each person only managed to get a few pieces on average, and none of them had enjoyed it.

Li Haitang chuckled, "Last time, it was mei fang's sister-in-law who sent me two pieces of cured chicken and a few pieces of cured meat. Her mother-in-law sent it to her from the countryside. I sent it to you in half. When I was at school, I promised Zhou Yunyang fifty pounds and asked my sister-in-law to help me smoke. There should be a lot of stock in her house. I'll send it all to you when I get it. You can share some with yue yang and Dongming."

"Sure." He promised, and finally, a big bag of bacon was put into the mouth of the jiang family. He gave a chicken and a piece of bacon to the two masters.

"That's fine. I'll go to her house to buy some wax. I'll call you during the spring festival. I wish all of you a happy new year ahead of time, a smooth work and good health in the coming year." Li Haitang looked at his watch. It was getting late. He had to hurry up.

"Well, thank you, and I wish you a happy new year ahead of time. I wish you all the best." Jiang Chuheng smiled and hung up.

When Wang Li and Wang Tiao finished cleaning up, the three of them went back to Wang jia village together. The wang family did have a lot of bacon, chicken and fish, and a big goose. Li Haitang bought them all and bought all the food that was supposed to be brought to the provincial capital for Wang Yao and the others. Anyway, the wang family had done the bacon business before, and they had their own set of smoked bacon tools. It only took a while for them to smoke out another batch.

Wang li helped her send sixty or seventy kilograms of wax to the post office. After sending an urgent message, the two of them separated. Wang li went home first. Li Haitang went to Li Jianhong's shop. This was the first time she came to visit.

Ever since last night's in-depth conversation, Li Haitang's subtle resentment towards Li Jianhong had completely disappeared. Instead, she had a little pity and sympathy for her. If it weren't for her biological mother, her marriage wouldn't have been so bad and all these years wouldn't have been so miserable.

By the time she got there, there were no more customers in the store, and the three of them were sorting out their inventory. Looking at the empty shelves, she walked over and said, "Is this all sold out?"

Li Jianhong grinned and nodded, "Yes, there's not a single bag left. All the cotton-padded clothes and pants are here. There are only six or seven of them."

"Our Clothing wholesale division doesn't have a lot of winter clothes in stock either. After the new year, we will directly wholesale spring clothes. If you still want to put in some winter clothes, go to the wholesale department as soon as possible after chunmei arrives in the provincial capital." Li Haitang reminded them.

"Okay." A month or two after the spring festival was still very cold, and she really wanted to sell some winter clothes.

Zhou Chunmei recognized another meaning and was slightly surprised, "Sister hoi tong, did you mean to let me work in the provincial capital?"

"Well, go ahead. Dad told me about you before. My job in the shop is easier than in the factory, and the money is no less than that. Tao' er and jin qiao will have to prepare for the exam in the first half of next year. Aunt fen won't go to work and will focus on taking care of the three of us. After six months of familiarity, I have to open a beverage distribution store. You can help me work there." Zhou Chunmei was a bit of a shrewd person, but these days she observed that she was very diligent and conscientious, not stingy with guests, but rather generous, very suitable for this job.

Zhou Chunmei smiled happily and said, "Thank you, Sister hoi tong."

As soon as she went over to take over her aunt's class, it must have been a very easy and important job. She was not very good at reading, but her mind was very lively, and immediately understood the meaning of her words.

"No need. Aunt Fen will be half a month away by then, so you can learn from her. Of course, if you don't want to go to the beverage store in the future and are still interested in clothes, then I can arrange for you to go to the Clothing wholesale division. The salary and other treatment are the same."

Zhou Chunmei shook his head, "No, you don't have to make special arrangements. You can do it at the Sugar wholesale division and the beverage distributors." The two shops had family members, and most of the workers were acquaintances. She felt it was easier to get along with them.

"Okay, let's talk about the details then." Li Haitang smiled and looked at the familiar figure across the street, "Dad is here. Pack your things and go back."

"Okay." Before Li Jianhong could thank her, he saw that she had already strode out.

As zhou chunxing packed her things, she said happily, "Sister, it's really great. You go work at Sister hoi tong's, and I can come and play with you when I'm on vacation." She had heard a lot about Li Tao in the provincial capital, especially when she learned that their four children had earned more than a thousand yuan during the summer vacation. She was so envious.

Zhou Chunmei was also very happy. The smile on her face grew bigger and bigger. Thinking about her behavior when she was a child, she really didn't know how her eyes and heart grew at that time. Why didn't she realize that sister haitang was much better than Li Ting before?

The thought of Li Ting made the smile on his face fade. Oh, what a pity. Fortunately, she is now aware of it. I hope she can live a good life when she comes out of there.
