60s Splendid Life

Chapter 391 Negotiations

The summer night sky is full of stars.

In July, all the brigades are rushing for the autumn harvest, and their village is also busy harvesting grain, and everyone is still working at the grain drying field at night.The grain drying field in the village has built a basketball court a few years ago. When the grain is not drying, everyone plays basketball there, and when the grain is harvested, it is used as a field for drying the grain.

After the electricity was connected to the village, street lamps were set up everywhere, and the lights on the sun-drying farm were turned on at night. The lights were bright, and working at night was not as difficult as it used to be.

The little girl in the family was not feeling well, so Lu Jin asked her sister to look after the house at home. He brought Shen Yu and a group of children to work in the grain drying field, and his grandfather came out with them.

On the way, Shen Yu asked strangely what was going on with their little girl.

"Don't ask about the little girl." Lu Jin didn't tell this person.

Shen met Lu Jin with a smile on the corner of his mouth, thinking it wasn't something bad, so he didn't ask any more questions.He is not a curious person, of course it also depends on who the matter is about, if it is about Lu Jin, he will probably want to find out what is going on.

Lu Jin helped the little girl in their family to keep the secret. Even the boys at home didn't tell them, nor did they tell Shen Yu.It's just that I feel a little emotional in my heart. The children in the family have grown up so much without knowing it. The little girl in their family has now become a big girl.

When they arrived at the grain drying field, there were already many people working here.

Young people, old people and children in the village are all here, and they form several large and small circles, picking peanuts, breaking corn, and breaking corn. All these tasks are done manually.

"Xiao Jin, you guys are here too." Wang Xiumei and her family also came. Seeing Lu Jin and her family also coming, Wang Xiumei called Lu Jin.

"Hey, sister-in-law, auntie." Seeing some acquaintances here, Lu Jin led his family to Wang Xiumei's side.Wang Xiumei asked everyone to step back and make room for Lu Jin and his family to sit down together. They were picking peanuts, and there were peanuts on the ground in the middle.

Seeing that there were not too many peanuts, Lu Jin asked his boys to bring some peanuts.

Soon Lu Haochen brought a group of younger brothers to fetch two baskets of peanut seedlings for everyone to pick.

Lu Jin and Shen Yu also sat down. There were women and children around them. They were all from the same village and basically knew each other. There were also a few female employees in the factory. Seeing him like this The factory manager was a little nervous.

"Where is your friend, factory manager?" People in the village often see Shen Yu coming to their village, and they know that he is Lu Jin's friend. The young man is so energetic, and he doesn't know if he is married. Just wanted to ask.

As soon as Lu Jin heard it, he knew what the aunt wanted to ask. He glanced at someone out of the corner of his eye and said with a smile, "His family is in the city."

Shen Yu listened to Lu Jin tell others about him without changing his expression.

"Ah, the ones in the city, it's a little far away." When the aunt heard the ones in the city, she thought that the ones in the city might look down on the girls in the country, and she was also reluctant to marry her daughter to such a far away place. Go, I'm afraid it won't work.

Two young and handsome young men sat together, and these big ladies who had daughters or relatives had daughters inevitably had other thoughts.

In fact, these big ladies in the village liked Lu Jin more. Not to mention his good looks, he also became the director of the factory. There were no parents-in-law in the family, and his daughter could be the master of the house as soon as he married.It's just that there are a lot of younger brothers and sisters in the family, but all of them have grown up so much, and in a few years, each of them will become a family, and the lives of everyone will be independent of each other.

But if they fell in love with others, they have to be fond of their girls.

There was still that unyielding sister-in-law asking: "What about you, factory manager, what kind of girl do you like?"

"It depends on the eye. If you like it, you like it. It doesn't matter what you look like." Someone deliberately handed him a peanut and touched his finger. The smile on the corner of Lu Jin's mouth deepened, and he felt inexplicably good.

"Hey, don't ask any of you. There are so many young people in our village that are not enough for you to choose. Do you have to stare at our factory manager?" Wang Xiumei interrupted these women's delusion politely, It's not that the girls in their village are not good, but that their factory manager is so good that no ordinary girl can be worthy of him.

But no one thinks about good things, and no one wants to marry a girl to a good young man.

Grandpa Yu also met a lot of people who talked to him, and he always said that it depends on what his grandson wants, and he can't make the decision.

When their family returned home from outside, it was almost ten o'clock.

The boys at home took a bath and went back to bed. Lu Jincai and Shen Yu took turns taking their clothes to take a bath.

When Lu Qinglian came out to go to the bathroom, she happened to see the door of her brother's room closed, but it seemed that it wasn't her brother who walked into her brother's room?Do the two brothers also live together?This made her feel a little strange.

But the little girl doesn't think about other things at the moment, she just thinks that the two brothers have as good a relationship as the group of younger brothers, and they don't want to sleep in an empty room, so they like to sleep in one bed in one room.

After going to the bathroom, she went back to her room to sleep.

***

The two days of Saturday and Sunday passed quickly.

Lu Jin and Shen Yu were going to work on Monday, and the boys at home were all at home after the summer vacation.Recently, the commune in the village was busy with the autumn harvest. Lu Jin asked these children to help the commune with the work first and then go to work in the factory. The other child laborers in the village basically arranged in the same way.

"Xiaodun, do you want to go back to the city with me? I'll go find your grandpa and take you back later." Lu Jin asked the little guest who had been playing at their house for two days when he was leaving.

"I don't want to go back. Brother, tell my grandpa, I'll play at your house for a while before I go back." Lai Xiaodun had a good time playing in the country, and only then did he realize that the country is so fun. Now he doesn't miss home or grandpa and grandma at all. I don't want his parents anymore.

"Okay, when I meet your grandpa, I'll tell him what you said." Lu Jin touched the heads of the little boys at home, and went out with Shen Yu.

Shen Yu went back to the town to go to work, Lu Jin went to the factory, and took their factory car to the city.

After meeting Secretary Lai, Lu Jin brought Lai Xiaodun's words to Secretary Lai.

"This kid, I think he's playing too much and doesn't want to go home anymore!" Sure enough, the one who knows his grandson is Secretary Lai, "Yesterday his parents came back and asked me where the child went."

Where else can I go? I went to someone else’s house to play, and I played until I refused to go home.

"He played very well at our house. When I went out today, he and Chen Chen went to the commune to help with work." Lu Jin told Secretary Lai about the child's performance at their house.

"Oh, he's still so capable." Secretary Lai was a little surprised after hearing this, as if he had met his grandson for the first time.If he remembered correctly, the eldest grandson of his family never worked at home, and often went out to fight outside. Every few days, parents brought their children to their house to complain.

It seems that it is not bad to let the grandson go to the countryside, right?In less than two days, he is already so sensible and obedient.Secretary Lai's mind turned, and he discussed with Director Lu: "Director Lu, let's discuss something?"

"Tell me." Lu Jin probably guessed what Secretary Lai wanted to say.

Sure enough, Secretary Lai proposed to let his grandson stay with him for a while, and let his grandson learn more from their children.

This is not too difficult, Lu Jin agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Later, the talks about their coming to the city to build a factory went quite smoothly, and all aspects were discussed in detail. The land rent changed from the original three years to five years, that is to say, within five years, the land rent The land was lent to them for the factory for free.However, in terms of funds, they may need to find their own way, because the country is also very difficult now.

Lu Jin said that this is no problem, he intends to borrow from the credit union in the name of their factory, but this requires Secretary Lai to help him as a guarantor.

After hesitating for a while, Secretary Lai agreed.

They took a car to look at the land that day. One of the two lands was in the eastern suburbs. Lu Jin also visited the land at that time, so after discussing with Secretary Lai, they decided to want the land in the eastern suburbs.There are no houses around in the eastern suburbs, and there is a village nearby. Part of the land here belongs to that village. Secretary Lai promised to arrange someone to come forward to talk about it.

"Okay, give me a call when you have negotiated with me. If the time is arranged, we plan to start construction next month and build the factory before the tenth month of the lunar calendar." After getting into the car, Lu Jin and Lai said the secretary.

"Oh, I thought you wouldn't start construction until next year. That's great. The sooner the factory is built, the sooner people can be recruited to work." Naturally, Secretary Lai had no objection to this.

Afterwards, they discussed the recruitment targets for the new factory, and Lu Jin agreed to recruit 50.00% of the employees in the city, including 5.00% of the quota for the local village personnel, and the remaining 50.00% for their youth. This is what he promised Secretary Wang to recruit from within the town.

Secretary Lai felt that the 50.00% quota was a bit small, and wanted more.

"I agreed to Secretary Wang. If I give you more, I'm afraid he won't agree. How about this? Why don't you give Secretary Wang a call? If you can discuss it, he will agree to it for you. As much as I give up, I can give you as much as I want." Lu Jin kicked the problem to Secretary Wang.

"You kid, you're a slippery head." Secretary Lai had no choice but to pass his idea to his subordinates.
