An hour after dinner, Yu Bing started running and exercising on the way home.
Xiao Sheng was weaving a bamboo basket in the Xiao family’s courtyard. After Yu Bing finished running, she walked around and when she saw that there was no one around, she snuck into the Xiao family’s house.
After closing the door, Yu Bing sat on a small wooden stool. ...
Xiao Sheng didn’t stop what he was doing, but he raised his head and looked at Yu Bing. “The girl you interacted with today is called Zhou Min. The higher-ups are asking for an increase in the quantity. The amount is still 100 bottles every three days. I’ve already accepted it.”
When Yu Bing heard this news, she felt as if she could already see the money coming to her. She said excitedly, “Go ahead and accept it. Any paying customer is fine! The connections you found this time are not bad. You opened the market and started increasing the quantity after less than a month.”
When Xiao Sheng saw Yu Bing’s money-grubbing look, he smirked slightly. “As long as we have quality goods, we won’t have to be afraid of not being able to sell them. We don’t have money, but the people in the big cities don’t worry about not having money and connections. They’re worried about not having good food.”
Yu Bing widened her eyes and looked at Xiao Sheng in admiration.
She didn’t expect Xiao Sheng to be so knowledgeable after being in the business for a few years.
Their country had a huge population, and there were many rich people in the city. The hundreds of bottles of jam they made every month were nothing compared to the huge population. When they were sold in the market, it would be like water dripping into the sea!
This was the benefit of having a large population!
Yu Bing thought for a moment and said, “Looks like new products will be released soon. You can negotiate with the person above.”
Xiao Sheng liked how quick-witted and creative Yu Bing was. His eyes flashed with mirth as he said, “That’s right. We only have this product now. In the eyes of the higher-ups, it’s insignificant. It can’t showcase our strength.”
Yu Bing snorted when she heard this. She hadn’t even displayed 10% of her true potential yet.
She pondered over it for a while. “Bring me to the mountain again. I’ll see what other free ingredients I can use!”
Xiao Sheng immediately replied, “No problem! By the way, the radio announcement said that you were the one who suggested choosing apprentices to learn how to drive the tractor. Is that so?”
Yu Bing was surprised again. “How did you guess that I took the initiative?”
Xiao Sheng glanced at Yu Bing and said jokingly, “After the tractor incident two days ago, who dares to target you? They’re afraid of being chewed out by you.”
Yu Bing rolled her eyes angrily when she saw Xiao Sheng describe her as a tigress.
The next day at noon.
Yu Bing went straight home from the county city. When she arrived home, it was just past twelve o’clock.
Seeing that Jiang Chun was cooking, Yu Bing parked the car and entered the kitchen to help.
Yao Nian carried the water into the kitchen shakily while Yu Bing looked at him in disdain.
He couldn’t even carry the water as steadily as her. It was obvious that he had been slacking off a lot. He was so tall, but he didn’t have much strength at all!
When Yao Nian saw Yu Bing, he immediately put down the bucket and strode to Yu Bing. He asked anxiously, “Little Bing, last night, Director Liu said on the radio that he wanted to choose tractor apprentices. What happened? Did they force you to take in disciples? Tell me, and I’ll seek justice for you!”
When Yao Nian heard the broadcast last night, he was very shocked. His first reaction was that the members of the village committee were forcing Yu Bing to take in disciples. This was detrimental to his interests!
After all, he was going to take Yu Bing’s position as the driver later on. How could he let those uncultured villagers learn how to drive first?!
Yao Nian wanted to look for Yu Bing immediately, but before he left, he thought about how Yu Bing was probably panicking if she was forced to do so, so as her fiancé, he would be the first person she would choose to rely on.
Hence, he calmly waited for Yu Bing to arrive in the dormitory so he could let her know his importance!
Unexpectedly, even until he fell asleep, no one came. He guessed that Yu Bing was too embarrassed to look for him. As a man, it was fine for him to take the initiative. He could even let Yu Bing feel his concern for her.
Yu Bing was dismayed by how delusional he was. She frowned and looked at Yao Nian as she said calmly, “I was the one who suggested it. No one forced me.”
Yao Nian looked like he had suffered a huge blow as he shouted, “Are you out of your mind? Do you know how many people want to be tractor drivers? Don’t you know that the position won’t be lucrative anymore after other people learn how to drive?! You’re as stupid as ever! Hurry up and find the village staff to take back your words!”
Yu Bing’s tractor driver position was registered with the commune. She wasn’t stupid. Taking in disciples wouldn’t affect her position.
