Courtyard House: Purchasing Agents' Comeback from the Great Famine

Chapter 163 Bringing Qin Jingru and Qin Dashan to Work at the Steel Rolling Mill

After the police left, Yi Zhonghai shouted to the people in the courtyard:

"The police haven't found the money at Uncle San's house in our compound yet. The thief probably isn't from our compound. Everyone should be more careful around strangers in the future, and it's best to deposit your savings in the bank as soon as possible so you won't be robbed."

"Everyone has to go to work tomorrow, so let's all go home."

Upon hearing this, everyone dispersed. It was already nine o'clock at night, and many children had already started to doze off.

Yan Fugui sighed deeply and had no choice but to lead his family, dejected, to the front yard.

If he had known he wouldn't have found his money even after searching the entire hospital, he wouldn't have reported it to the police. Now look what's happened—the money wasn't found, and everyone's pointing fingers at him.

Now everyone in the hospital knows he had over two thousand in savings. How can he pretend to be poor now? How can he take advantage of the people in the hospital?

When Yan Fugui and his family returned to the house, the third aunt could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

"Old Yan, what are we going to do? This is our life savings, and it's all gone like this. What are we going to do now?"

Yan Fugui sat on the stool without saying a word, but his eyes twitched, indicating that he was not at peace.

As for the three Yan brothers, they weren't so upset. When they had over two thousand yuan in savings, they ate cornbread and pickled vegetables. Now that they have no savings, they still eat cornbread and pickled vegetables, so it doesn't affect them much.

Wang Feng and Qin Jingru returned to the room. Qin Jingru touched the hot water in the bathtub and found it was all cold, so they had to boil water again for a bath.

After the two of them boiled water and took a bath, it was almost 11 o'clock. After Qin Jingru went to bed, he didn't go to sleep at all.

He used his mind to enter the space, fed all the poultry and livestock, checked the growth of the rice and wheat, and then left it alone.

There are now more than 300 wild boars in the space, mostly baby wild boars, and 14 domestic pigs. The four largest domestic pigs are now weighing a little over 200 pounds and are ready to be slaughtered.

However, these four domestic pigs consist of one male and three females, and he wants to keep them to continue breeding, so he cannot kill them for the time being.

The other ten piglets have also grown quite a bit, now weighing over fifty pounds. Once these ten pigs are fully grown, they can be slaughtered at will.

To Wang Feng's delight, the four tiger cubs in the space had grown quite a bit recently and no longer needed milk; they could now hunt on their own.

Wang Feng specially set up a hunting ground for several tiger cubs and released a lot of wild rabbits into it so that the tiger cubs would not lose their wildness.

Also, that tigress is pregnant again these past two days, which is something to be happy about.

At midnight, Wang Feng put on his cotton-padded coat and hood and went out to search for treasure.

He returned at four in the morning. This time, he searched 12 abandoned courtyards in Dongzhimen but couldn't find a single thing, which left Wang Feng speechless.

......

The next day, early in the morning.

At the dinner table, Qin Jingru handed Wang Feng a steamed bun and said with a smile, "Brother Wang Feng, when am I going to the steel rolling mill? My brother is starting work at the steel rolling mill this afternoon. How about I talk to my master and go to the steel rolling mill with my brother this afternoon?"

Wang Feng thought for a moment and nodded, "Alright then. Go to Fengzeyuan later, say hello to your master and come back. I'll take you to the steel rolling mill at one o'clock this afternoon."

"Hehe, okay then, I'll go to Fengzeyuan and tell my master later." Qin Jingru nodded with a smile.

The thought of becoming a worker soon and being able to command dozens of people filled Qin Jingru with excitement.

at the same time.

Steel rolling mill, foundry workshop.

Yan Jiecheng arrived at the workshop with a few dried fish and a bag of Daqianmen cigarettes in his hand. He went to the director's office and knocked on the door.

"Knock knock knock".

"Come in."

When Director Zhang saw that the visitor was Yan Jiecheng, he asked in surprise, "Yan Jiecheng, what do you want with me?"

Five minutes later.

Yan Jiecheng returned to his workstation with a long face.

Director Zhang not only refused his gift, but he was also severely reprimanded. It seems that it is basically impossible for him to be transferred back to the fitter's workshop.

......

At 11 a.m., Qin Jingru pushed her bicycle back to courtyard number 95.

"Jingru, have you told your master?" Wang Feng asked.

Qin Jingru nodded: "I told him, but Master didn't agree at first. He said that there weren't many opportunities to cook in the factory, which would slow down my progress in cooking skills. I told Master that I didn't have much room for improvement now, and that my cooking skills were improving very slowly and that I needed a long time to practice before Master agreed."

"Okay, then you go cook first. After lunch, I'll take you to the steel rolling mill."

"Um."

After lunch and two pots of tea, seeing that it was already 12:50, Wang Feng took Qin Jingru to the steel rolling mill.

The two of them, each on a bicycle, traveled from courtyard number 95 to the steel rolling mill in just a few minutes.

Upon arriving at the gate of the steel rolling mill, we saw Qin Dashan, carrying large and small bags, looking around at the entrance.

"elder brother."

Qin Jingru stopped her bicycle and waved to Qin Dashan.

Wang Feng stopped his bicycle, handed him a Daqianmen cigarette, and said, "Brother, have you had lunch yet?"

Qin Dashan took the cigarette, scratched his head, and laughed, "I've already eaten. I ate three cornbread buns."

Wang Feng nodded: "Okay, big brother, come in with me, I'll take you to the onboarding process."

Wang Feng greeted the security department staff, handed over the letter of introduction from Li Huaide, and then led Qin Jingru and Qin Dashan into the steel rolling mill.

Upon arriving at the deputy factory director's office, Wang Feng knocked on the door.

"Knock knock knock".

"Please come in."

Wang Feng told Qin Jingru and Qin Dashan to wait outside before he went into his office.

When Li Huaide saw that it was Wang Feng, he immediately burst into laughter: "Hahaha, brother, now that Yan Jiecheng has been transferred to the foundry workshop, I even asked Director Zhang to take special care of him. You should be able to vent your anger now, right?"

"Hehe, thanks, Brother Li."

Wang Feng got straight to the point: "I brought my wife with me this time. I'll have her show you her skills later. I guarantee she'll be better than Sha Zhu."

Li Huaide patted Wang Feng on the shoulder heavily and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, you've brought your sister-in-law over. Hurry up and let her in. There's no need to be so polite with Brother Li."

Wang Feng smiled and waved his hand: "Brother Li, it's like this, didn't you give me a fitter spot last time? I gave it to my brother-in-law, and I brought him along. He's waiting outside."

"Alright, brother, let them in. Since they're your brother-in-law, don't worry, Brother Li will take care of them," Li Huaide said with a smile.

Wang Feng nodded and shouted towards the door, "Jingru, come in."
