Wang Minglan talked on and on, feeling quite satisfied. Then, his gaze fell on Yu Li, and he realized that he might have been using area-of-effect attacks and accidentally injured an ally!
"Yu Li, don't listen to what I'm about to say!"
"You married the right person; your life is better than ours!"
"Sister Minglan, please stop talking!"
Yu Li felt it was best to end this topic sooner rather than later.
Their situations are fundamentally different.
Even though Qin Zhunru and Wang Minglan are both divorced, Qin Huairu is different from Wang Minglan. What if Wang Minglan tells Qin Huairu to be independent?
"Okay, okay, I won't say anymore!"
Wang Minglan smiled brightly, "I'll go check on things at the Intermediate Court first. Make sure Mingliang doesn't drink too much!"
"Sister Minglan, you should go quickly!"
Yu Li quickly spoke up, afraid that Wang Minglan would stay any longer.
After Wang Minglan left, Yu Li glanced at Qin Zhunru, a little nervously, and tentatively asked, "Sister Qin, do you think Sister Minglan is right?"
"We are different!"
Qin Huairu smiled at Yu Li, "Sister Wang has her family to back her up, but I don't!"
"Sister Qin, do you think I'm taking advantage of someone in a vulnerable position?"
Yu Li suddenly felt that she was being a bit immoral, having dragged Qin Zhunru into the mess for her own sake.
Qin Huaizhunru pushed Yu Li away, saying, "What are you saying? I'm already thanking God you didn't blame me for stealing your man!"
"Besides, if you hadn't given me a hand, I don't know what kind of life I'd be living now!"
After divorcing Jia Dongxu and being kicked out of the house by Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu's only option was to return to her village to farm.
But as soon as she returns to the village, her parents will definitely marry her off.
She's a divorced woman with a daughter; what kind of good family can she marry into? She's not good at farm work either; she'll probably be worn out and die soon.
Qin Huairu saw it very clearly.
She was also very grateful to Shen Zhishou and Yu Li.
Without this couple, she really wouldn't have survived.
But now?
She has a job and a house!
They also obtained the urban household registration they had always dreamed of.
As a result, her daughter also became a city dweller, with a fixed ration, and no longer needed to buy expensive negotiated grain.
Sometimes when Qin Huairu wakes up at night, she wonders if she is still dreaming.
Seeing the sincerity in Qin Zhunru's words, Yu Li chuckled and said, "Sister Qin, you'll have to help me out more often in the future!"
"I'll do my best!"
Qin Zhunru's face immediately turned red.
A train bombed a freight station.
When Shen Zhishou arrived, the place was busy. Wang Weigong even ran out of his office to lend a hand from time to time, and he had a boil on his lip.
"Brother Wang, why are you on such a big fire?"
"Brother, you've finally arrived!"
Wang Weigong was extremely excited to see Shen Zhishou.
"Brother Wang, is there too much work to do?"
"Too much, far too much!"
Wang Weigong said with a bitter face, "There's a lot of stock, but I can't allocate more manpower. I've been worried about this for two days now!"
"Okay, I'll go get to work!"
Shen Zhishou also knew the situation of the freight station. The site was only so big, the space for handling was not very large, and there was no large machinery. It could only rely on manpower, so of course it was subject to various restrictions.
The workers who were also moving things breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Shen Zhishou appear. Whenever they encountered this situation, they had to work overtime until late at night, or even all night long. But there was no other way; the things couldn't be squeezed, and some things that needed to be moved had to be done in a hurry.
With the development of Beijing over the years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, this station is now somewhat small in scale, and a new train station is under construction.
But before the new station was built, the pressure on this station was increasing day by day.
Shen Zhishou's move brought a huge sigh of relief to everyone.
One person can do the work of four or five people, but doesn't need to take up the space of four or five people.
Moreover, even so, Shen Zhishou still had the capacity to help others, which greatly improved the handling efficiency of the entire freight station.
Wang Weigong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
At the same time, he secretly made up his mind that if something like this happened again, he would have to borrow people from the steel mill.
Otherwise, he felt he would collapse before the new station even went into operation.
Wang Weigong breathed a sigh of relief and then went to the stationmaster's office.
Yang Zhenhua smiled when he saw him approaching and said, "Brother Shen, you've arrived?"
"They're here!"
Wang Weigong took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, "That's why we can't give Brother Shen a higher salary; otherwise, I would have insisted on keeping him at the station!"
"You're kidding me!"
Yang Zhenhua rolled his eyes at Wang Weigong. "Brother Shen, you're worth five or six people by yourself. How much salary can you afford to pay him?"
A typical porter can earn thirty or forty yuan a month, but Shen Zhishou does the work of five or six people. Even if it's five people, the porter's salary can't possibly be one hundred and fifty yuan!
To put it bluntly, their temple is too small to house a true god.
"You know, we'll be too busy from now on, how about we borrow some people from the steel rolling mill?"
"Brother Shen, since you're here to help, we'll pay him an extra salary!"
Upon hearing Wang Weigong's words, Yang Zhenhua immediately burst into laughter, pointing at Wang Weigong and exclaiming, "You're something else! That's a brilliant idea!"
"However, there's one downside!"
Although Yang Zhenhua agreed with Wang Weigong's idea, he still raised a slight objection: "Brother Shen is now a fitter at a steel rolling mill. Fitting is a skilled job; it's a craft that requires a lot of practice. We're taking up his time, which might affect his fitter qualification!"
"That is a problem!"
Wang Weigong also fell silent.
"How about we ask Brother Shen later?"
Yang Zhenhua spoke again, "Brother Shen has been at the steel rolling mill for a while now. We don't know how well he's learned the techniques. Let's ask him later and hear what he has to say."
"OK!"
Wang Weigong nodded.
"Oh, by the way, could you ask someone to keep an eye on the freight department for me? I need to get some sleep; I haven't slept for almost two days. This job is inhuman!"
"Fine, you can take a nap now!"
Yang Zhenhua immediately called someone over to help him on duty, and went to the freight department himself.
With Shen Zhishou joining the freight department, the progress of the handling work has been greatly accelerated.
On the surface, his strength is comparable to that of five or six people, but when it comes to actually doing the work, the increase in efficiency is not simply due to the addition of five or six people, because the working hours of five or six people are superimposed on one person.
To put it simply, if six 100-pound bags are to be moved by six people, they can't move them all at once; they have to take turns.
But now that Shen Zhishou is alone, he saves the time of queuing.
This is the most important!
Shen Zhishou worked at the train station until almost midnight before he was finally able to clear out all the accumulated goods.
If it weren't for Shen Zhishou, that ruthless guy, relying on the others alone, it would probably have been another all-nighter!
That's why there are so many people doing odd jobs around the train station area; otherwise, no one, no matter how kind, could endure it all night long.
"Brother, it's getting late, I won't keep you any longer!"
"Even though you live nearby, I'll still let Xiao Zhang give you a ride. Don't refuse!"
Yang Zhenhua immediately called someone to drive Shen Zhishou back to the courtyard house.
The day's work paid out a considerable sum, all of which was placed in an envelope and slipped into Shen Zhishou's pocket by Wang Weigong.
In addition, there was half a basket of apples.
This half-basket of apples was also the reason why Yang Zhenhua insisted on having someone drive Shen Zhishou there.
After all, carrying half a basket of apples late at night would only cause trouble if the joint defense team saw him, so it was better to just have someone send Shen Zhishou back.
When the car arrived at the alleyway outside the courtyard, Shen Zhishou got out of the car carrying apples and immediately handed four apples to the driver, Xiao Zhang, as a token of his gratitude.
Xiao Zhang naturally thanked him repeatedly.
These days, apples are a real rarity.
They are generally not available on the market.
Shen Zhishou wasn't really a fan of the apples available now, mainly because they tasted so-so.
But for others, this is a really good thing.
Lou Xiao'e brought apples back to the courtyard house from her parents' home and specially shared some with Yu Li.
Yu Like is a baby; she eats one every day and doesn't eat much more.
Now that we have this half-basket of apples, it will be enough for Yu Li to eat for a while.
Compared to eating apples, Shen Zhishou thinks the white radishes of today are particularly good.
Of course, you can't eat too many radishes, they'll cause gas!
When Shen Zhishou returned to the courtyard house, all was quiet.
However, the lights in the back room were always on.
At this time, the courtyard gates were already closed.
Shen Zhishou knocked on the window of the room and woke Yu Li up so she could open the door.
"Honey, what is this?!"
"Station Chief Yang sent some apples; that should last you a while!"
Shen Zhishou casually put down the apple basket and replied casually.
Yu Li didn't pay much attention. Perhaps she didn't hear clearly, she went into the kitchen in a daze to help Shen Zhishou boil water for a bath.
"Go to sleep first, I can do it myself!"
Shen Zhishou stopped Yu Li, not wanting to trouble her since she looked sleepy.
However, Yu Li forced her eyes open and said defiantly, "I can do it!"
If a man works outside and comes home late at night, and she does nothing but sleep soundly in bed, what kind of behavior is that?
She knows her man loves others, but she also feels sorry for her man.
Seeing this, Shen Zhishou said nothing more.
Yu Li had already boiled water in the pot, but by the time Shen Zhishou returned to Taiwan, the water had already cooled down.
"I made these steamed buns tonight, I'll heat up a few for you!"
"OK!"
Although Shen Zhishou had eaten dinner at the station, he had worked for several hours afterward, and was now quite hungry.
Money is really not that easy to earn.
Sometimes, Shen Zhishou wondered if the great god of time travel knew how difficult it was to make money in this era, so he specially strengthened his body so that he could earn more money.
After all, in this day and age, finding a legitimate and safe way to make money requires a lot of effort!
As for making money through writing?
Any transmigrator with a sound mind understands that in this era, making money through writing could lead to losing everything at any time.
In this day and age, only money earned through hard work can withstand any test!
