Back to 70s: To build a career, don’t be a grudge but a group favorite

Chapter 388 Competition and Family Relations

"Yes, mother, the recipe I gave you in Qiyue can produce fragrant rice noodles."

Han Lao Er is also excited. He is now in charge of the soap production workshop.

Although, the soap production workshop looks pretty good at the moment, and it looks like it can bring profits to everyone.

But he has been worried that as time goes by, will it not be sold?

Their current sales channel is mainly to supply cotton mills, but if they expand production in the future, cotton mills will definitely not be able to handle it.

They also need to look for external sales. The soap they produce is too single and not very competitive.

It's different with new products, especially Xiangjizi, which is very popular in the city.

I heard that women in the city use fragrant soap to wash their hands, face and bathe, so the demand must be huge.

"Why is July so busy thinking about the soap factory, why not think about our luggage factory?" Yang Chunzhi muttered while doing the work in hand.

She was asked to say that the luggage factory was started by July, so she should be more concerned about it. Why didn't she say a word about it in July?

Could it be that this girl took a look outside and discovered that there is actually no market for bags?

Yang Chunzhi became a little anxious when she thought of this possibility.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, there will definitely be more in the future. We are not unreliable people in July."

After Han Laoer said this, he continued to read the rest of the letter.

I wrote a thick pile in July, and it was impossible not to talk about the production of luggage factories.

Han Qiyue's letter was really thick. Everyone in the family greeted him and talked about his life in Beijing in detail.

But in fact, she basically reported good news but not bad news in her letter.

He talked about a lot of interesting things about himself in school, showing that he loved school and was living a good and happy life. He also said that his classmates liked the teacher, etc., but he didn't mention a word about those bad things.

Of course, the Han family would not doubt that in their hearts, a child as good as Han Qiyue would definitely be liked.

Several people in the Han family began to listen to Han Laoer's continued reading with great interest.

"How come you've finished reading the letter and haven't mentioned anything about the luggage factory yet?"

After Han Lao Er read out the date of the letter, Yang Chunzhi became anxious.

What does July mean?

Why don't you say a sentence or two? No need to say more, just mention it.

"Sister-in-law, maybe it's in another letter." Xia Xiuhe hurriedly comforted her sister-in-law.

She was also complaining in her heart, how could she not mention this child in Qiyue? What did her sister-in-law think?

The luggage factory, but my sister-in-law is in charge.

The sister-in-law is impatient and strong-willed. She is now in charge of the production of the luggage factory and wants to do something big.

Recently, the bags produced by the bag factory are selling well in the city, and my sister-in-law is very motivated.

However, my sister-in-law is really someone who can see three steps at a time. She said in July, she said that she should look at problems from the perspective of development. No matter when, she should think about development.

She thought that the factory should introduce more beautiful bags to attract more people's attention.

If Qi Qi doesn't mention this matter now, isn't it disappointing her sister-in-law?

Han Lao Er happily opened the formula Han Qiyue gave him and prepared to study it carefully.

"This process is definitely not easy. Look, I wrote such a thick pile in July."

Han Laoer said proudly as he opened a thick stack of papers and began to look through them.

However, Han Laoer only had time to turn two pages before he was dumbfounded.

The recipe only has two pages?

Han Lao Er continued to flip back in disbelief, and there was actually a picture of a bag at the back.

Han Laoer flipped through seven or eight pages in one go, all of which looked like drawings with detailed annotations.

Han Lao Er instantly felt jealous. He thought Qi Qi was thinking about his old father. Who knew that this kid was still thinking about the luggage factory even if he didn't write it in the letter.

How did he know that Han Qiyue valued the luggage factory more than the soap processing workshop.

Now, Yang Chunzhi and Xia Xiuhe, both sisters-in-law, are practicing in the luggage factory.

In two years, if the policy is liberalized, Han Qiyue plans to open a luggage factory to make a fortune.

After all, if this industry is done well, the Han family will be able to develop smoothly without having to find another way to develop for decades.

There are so many different kinds of bags in her mind that she is not afraid of running out of new styles.

"Sister-in-law, these next ones are for you."

Han Laoer felt very uncomfortable, but he still gave the next seven or eight pieces of paper to Yang Chunzhi.

"Second brother, why did you give me the letter? I can't read it even if I'm illiterate."

When Yang Chunzhi said this, he looked a little decadent.

Her educational level is not high, she has only attended literacy classes, and she usually learns a little from other people in her family, but even so, she will definitely have no problem reading letters.

But Yang Chunzhi always likes to say that she is illiterate and cannot understand, etc.

At this moment, he just said this casually.

"It's okay, sister-in-law. It doesn't matter if you can't understand the words. What I gave you in July are all pictures. You just need to understand the pictures."

Han Laoer said with a sour tone, looking at the thick pile of design drawings with his eyes, he was very heartbroken.

Yang Chunzhi and Xia Xiuhe didn't pay attention to Han Laoer's current expression. When they heard the picture behind them, Yang Chunzhi had already taken the paper and started to read it.

Xia Xiuhe also hurriedly came over, and her sisters-in-law looked at each one carefully.

Grandma Han saw it, glared at him angrily and said, "He looks like a loser, and he even cares about his family."

It looked fine when I was a kid, but why is it getting worse now?

"Mom, that's not what you said. We are a family, but we represent two factories and have a competitive relationship."

Han Laoer's words were righteous and righteous, as if that was really the case.

In fact, he thought so too.

Grandma Han couldn't help but rolled her eyes.

It sounds like you are competing based on your own ability. Why don't you think about it, no matter which one of the two factories, can it be established without July?

"Don't tell me this. I don't believe a word of it, old lady. If you have the ability, rely on yourself. Don't rely on my ability in July to compete with your sister-in-law. That's a real man!"

Grandma Han did not hide her dislike for her hopeless son at all.

It has to be said that it is not unreasonable for Grandma Han to manage this big family for decades and keep the whole family in harmony.

She is a person who protects shortcomings, but she knows in her heart what kind of shortcomings can be protected and what kind of shortcomings cannot be protected.

For example, between her son and her daughter-in-law, Grandma Han will definitely protect her daughter-in-law, no matter what time, but if she protects her son, she will definitely be in trouble.

Han Lao Er has long been accustomed to his mother's habit of quarrels. When he quarrels with his wife, she will definitely protect her. Now that he is competing with his sister-in-law, she will also protect her.

He touched his nose and said nothing.

Who told him to really rely on his own daughter?

Forget it, everything my mother said is right, we are a family anyway, it doesn't matter if we have two factories, what matters is that we are one family.

Grandma Han snorted in disgust as she watched her son get up and leave.

Neither Yang Chunzhi nor Xia Xiuhe paid attention to the lawsuit between Grandma Han and Er Er Han. They even didn't notice that Er Er Han left.

The new patterns designed by Han Qiyue are more beautiful, and they look better than the previous ones.

That is, the two of them didn't quite understand the picture, but that didn't stop them from liking the bag at the first glance.

"Sister-in-law, look here, is it the side of the bag? Why don't I understand?"

"I don't understand it either. It's okay. Let's go back and find some rags and try it out first. We can talk about the pattern and study it later."

"Okay, let's study this after dinner tonight."

"Now we have electric lights in our house. They are bright and bright, so we can do a lot of work at night."

Grandma Han happened to hear the two sisters-in-law talking, and immediately said: "You don't want to sleep and work at night. You have to go to work during the day, and you have to go to the fields to work, and then you work at night. You will never make up for the damage you have done to your body." ."

The two daughters-in-law at home have never enjoyed any blessings since they entered the house. Now that the conditions at home have finally improved, the daughters-in-law cannot be made to work hard.

She thought about it. From now on, she should rest when she needs to rest and eat when she needs to eat. Talent is the most important thing.

The two sisters were very touched by their mother-in-law's concern.

Xia Xiuhe said hurriedly: "Mom, my sister-in-law and I are both sensible people. Don't worry, we will definitely not break our bodies."

Grandma Han nodded.

"When we get back, I'll ask my second brother to write a letter to Qiyue. You should also think about whether you have anything to say to Qiyue. Don't think too much about work."

I didn't know Qi Qi's address before and couldn't write a letter, but now I know the address. From now on, I will ask my second brother to write a letter to Qiu once a week. When San Yang comes back, he will take it to the county and send it out.

Although stamps are quite expensive, Grandma Han doesn't feel bad. The current conditions of her family are such that she can't afford even one stamp.

"The kid in July is talking nonsense, but I don't know if she can take care of herself or if she has starved herself to death!"

Grandma Han began to lament that her granddaughter could not take care of herself.

"Mom, it's okay. When you write the letter, you can tell Qi Qi that studying is hard. Let her eat well and sleep well. This child has no time to rest when he studies." Xia Xiuhe said immediately.

My daughter knows very well that this child has never been too strong before, but in recent months, she has been dying.

Not only Xia Xiuhe, but also most people in the old Han family thought so.

They felt that Han Qiyue could find several jobs in the city and must have put in more effort than others.

The leaders in other factories are not all fools. It is estimated that no one would want someone who knows nothing and cannot do anything.

"Brother and sister, you are right. We are very strong in July. We have to tell her to take care of herself. She has never been away for such a long time. As an aunt, I miss her. What is it? It’s too far away in the capital, but if it’s in the county, or even the city, I’d have to go and see the baby.”

"This baby is so far away when he leaves. He can only come back during the holidays."

Grandma Han also misses her little granddaughter, but she knows in her heart that it will take a long time for the baby to come back, and she will never see her again no matter how hard she thinks about it.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking here when they heard Han Sanyang's voice coming from the door.

"Nai, I'm back." Han Sanyang's hearty voice sounded.

"Oh, it's this guy Sanyang who's back." Grandma Han walked out happily.

Yang Chunzhi watched her mother-in-law walk out in such a hurry, and she had a feeling that her mother-in-law couldn't see Qi Qi, and even Sanyang, a brat like Sanyang, cared about her?

Han Sanyang never knew that he could be treated like being welcomed by his grandmother.

In the past, when grandma saw me, she would give herself face by not scolding him for being a brat, so why would she welcome him out?

When he saw Grandma Han coming out, Han Sanyang felt that he must have been dazzled by walking too much.

"Grandma, why are you out?" Han Sanyang asked hurriedly: "Is there something going on at home?"

Grandma Han felt bad after hearing what her grandson said.

"You kid, why are you talking? Your family is fine. It's not because I thought it would be difficult for you to come back."

I know that none of my grandchildren can take care of me. If Qi Qi was here, he would hug his arms affectionately and say he misses his grandma.

Sin!

Han Sanyang instantly understood that he had made a mistake.

"Grandma, I'm not thinking that you are working too hard."

He hurriedly looked for help, but no matter how much he tried, it was too late.

Fortunately, Grandma Han had no other thoughts besides regret.

It's not easy for these brats to say such a thing, so the demands can't be too high.

Han Sanyang carried the bag in his hand and was about to help Grandma Han go to the house together.

Grandma Han refused.

"My hands and feet are fine. You can just go your own way. If you are clumsy, you will make me fall down again!"

Han Sanyang: "..."

Is he so stupid?

When Yang Chunzhi heard her son come in, she said without raising her head: "Sanyang, why are you back?"

Han Sanyang didn't even get a look from his old mother. It would be a lie to say he wasn't sad.

He's been walking around for hours, why did he treat you like this when he got home?

"This is not because my brothers and sisters at home are not here. I have to come back to see you."

Han Sanyang put the bag on the table in the yard.

Han Sanyang felt like he was a little redundant.

Why can't my old mother even give me a look? What is she looking at? So focused?

On the other hand, Xia Xiuhe glanced at Han Sanyang, looked away from the drawing, stood up and said, "Sanyang, whatever you want to eat tonight, my second mother will cook it for you."

Feeling the concern, Han Sanyang immediately said with a smile: "My second mother still loves me. I want to eat rice at night. Is that okay?"

"Okay, there is still a lot of rice at home. Since you brothers and sisters have left, the rice and noodles at home have been eaten slowly."

Xia Xiuhe stood up with a smile and prepared to cook. During this period, the family had enough rice and they didn't save anything. They ate whatever they wanted.

It’s not a big deal if your child wants to eat rice.

"Old people often say that I am poor when I am young, but we are a bunch of young adults. It has not been easy for you to support us brothers these years. Second mother, we will definitely honor you in the future." Han Sanyang followed Xia Xiuhe's words. said.

He has always known in his heart that the poor conditions at home are related to the fact that they have many children, and more importantly, they have many sons.
