“What happened? Am I not worthy to work for Boss Deng?”
Wang Jun was anxious.
“It is not that you are not worthy. I am afraid Brother Wang is joking…”
Whether to take wages or not is a small matter. Wang Jun digging ponds?
That is the real joke!
With the time to dig ponds and work, how much money would Wang Jun miss earning!
Deng Shangwei feared Wang Jun would regret after leaving the table, and he could not force Wang Jun to work. It would be so awkward when they meet.
“Uncle, I think Uncle Wang’s idea is quite good. Uncle Wang is not the type to give up halfway. If he says he will come to work two days a week, he absolutely will not miss half a day!”
Wen Ying smiled and finalized with one stroke.
Wang Shuang almost could not hold back laughter.
In front of so many people, his dad had boasted first. Even if he wants to quit later, he could not lose face.
The great filial son, while his dad had not regretted yet, quickly added chips. “My dad will not regret, but working for free without wages always has a deadline. It is impossible for Uncle Deng’s farm to open one day and my dad has to come work forever.”
Wen Ying deeply agreed. “That is indeed a problem. Uncle Wang, once words are spoken, even four horses cannot pull them back. We cannot let Uncle Wang suffer too much.”
“Then use physical examination indicators as standard. Uncle Wang first comes to work for half a year. After half a year, if re-examination indicators are normal, no need to come.”
Qin Jiao was also holding back laughter.
The shallowest in composure, Li Mengjiao, where could she hold back? She laughed while imagining. “What if Uncle Wang’s indicators are normal after half a year, but he is addicted to working? Will you let him come or not?”
Wang Jun. Addicted to working? Am I so cheap?
Wang Jun finally saw it. Wen Ying and the four were vying to put high hats on him, just fearing he would regret!
These little brats really underestimated people. Boss Wang, who was already vaguely regretting, was riding a tiger and hard to get off, stiffly nodding. “No problem. Just as you said, with half a year as deadline. After half a year, I go to hospital for re-examination. If blood lipids drop, I will not come. If not drop, I continue to come!”
Qin Xianming led the applause. “Good, then it is settled!”
Li Zhentao and Wen Dongrong both applauded. Deng Shangwei, this boss, could only follow applauding.
Several times Deng Shangwei wanted to correct everyone. He really just did an aquaculture base… Everyone thought it was a farm. Deng Shangwei slowly accepted this setting.
If to do a farm, the current scale is still small. Need to contract more land from the village.
The village’s good fields cannot be touched. Land outside good fields, contract fee is not expensive. The real big part is subsequent development funds.
Once the stall spreads, a mere hundreds of thousands investment where enough. This money spends without count!
Doing aquatic business in Rongcheng indeed makes money, but most earned money followed Qin Xianming and Wang Jun to invest. Wife Chen Li also followed wind to buy house in Modu. Because Wen Ying is optimistic about this year’s stock market, Chen Li also took some money to Chen Ru to operate. Even landlord families sometimes have no surplus grain, let alone Deng Shangwei who just left small boss level. Multi-line investment can share risks, at same time makes Deng Shangwei feel economic pressure.
On the way back to city, Deng Shangwei was both happy and worried.
Wen Ying whispered. “Sister Qin Jiao wants villagers to raise crayfish. This part of upfront cost investment definitely will not let you bear, Uncle. Uncle Wang will come work two days a week. Working and working, he will have feelings for the farm…”
Once have feelings, can he watch the farm fall into development bottleneck without moving?
Wang Jun is much richer than Deng Shangwei.
Deng Shangwei thought but shook head. “Little Ying, I cannot morally kidnap President Wang to invest with me. The village lives my elders and folks. I lead them to earn money and get rich willingly. This land nurtured me. I am willing to give back. This land did not nurture President Wang!”
Wen Ying thought, yes.
Qin Jiao wants villagers to raise crayfish, that helps “Shrimp King” business.
No reason to pull Wang Jun to invest in village.
Wang Jun invests 1 million in village, works hard for one or two years, possible return only 100,000. This 1 million invested elsewhere, maybe earn back 2 million, 3 million or more for Wang Jun!
“Uncle, if your money is not enough, wait for me to settle royalties. I invest with you. Around one million I can bear.”
Because Editor Bao deliberately delayed, Rongcheng Literature Publishing House’s royalties due in November last year dragged to end of December.
Now it is February 2007. Wen Ying’s new book “Xun Yong” will publish in ten days or so. Two old books also due for new quarter settlement.
Also Tianjiao’s upcoming dividends.
Wen Ying’s cash flow is well secured.
Deng Shangwei still refused. “I do not want President Wang’s money, how can I want yours? You girl are smart. Money in your hands can invest and appreciate!”
Invest in Tianjiao, buy Modu property, these are insightful investments.
Money in Wang Jun’s hands can generate money. In Wen Ying’s hands, no less.
But Wen Ying smiled. “Money where can be earned endlessly. This place did not nurture me, but it nurtured you, Uncle. What difference from nurturing me?”
In this instant, sweet, sour, bitter, spicy all surged to Deng Shangwei’s heart. He almost moved to death.
Deng Shangwei always doted on Wen Ying. This doting does not need Wen Ying to repay. Wen Ying usually does not say repay kindness, even occasionally lets Deng Shangwei take blame. At key moments, supports Deng Shangwei so much. Blood relation or not, what relation? Even biological daughter is no more than this!
Deng Shangwei almost cried. Wen Dongrong in back seat also almost cried.
Wen Ying in front of Deng Shangwei is warm little cotton jacket. In front of Old Wen, only leaks wind!
Holes too big, so Old Wen wants to mend but does not know where to start.
When getting off, Wen Dongrong hypocritically reminded. “Your uncle invests in hometown, that is real poverty alleviation. This is not like sponsoring poor students small play. You throw one million in, may not even hear a sound. You already said the words in car. Have you thought how to tell your mum?”
Wen Ying was baffled. “Just say directly. I did not plan to hide from my mum.”
One million spent on consumption is prodigal.
Gambled away is fool.
Invest with Deng Shangwei in countryside, Wen Ying thinks no matter how is not bad thing.
This year’s A-share bull market, Wen Ying took millions to trade stocks. Expected return no matter how more than one million. Transplant “leeks” cut from stock market to poor countryside, Wen Ying feels no problem!
“You…”
“Dad, not that I say, your ideological awareness still needs improvement. Cannot limit to small family small love!”
Wen Ying quickly went upstairs, leaving Wen Dongrong behind. Wen Dongrong’s cheeks puffed and puffed.
He is not really stopping, just a bit sour. Cannot the black-hearted cotton say some nice words without money to coax him?
Coax is impossible.
Wen Ying in front of Chen Ru added salt and vinegar. Chen Ru looked at Wen Dongrong with questioning eyes, as if saying Wen Dongrong even mixed fake in brother-in-law relation with Deng Shangwei!
