Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

The more Chen Jun thought about it, the more feasible this matter became. She looked at her man and asked seriously, "Dongzi..."

"If the steel mill is really insolvent and about to close down in the future, do you really want to take over the steel mill and become your own boss?"

Wang Dong's face also became very serious. After thinking for a while, he replied: "Wife..."

"Without the steel mill, I wouldn't be who I am today. I also don't want to see the steel mill close down right under my nose, with more than 10,000 workers losing their jobs and tens of thousands of their families being left with no income because of the closure of the steel mill."

"I have no education and no knowledge of production. If I continue to work in the steel mill, my hope of being promoted to a factory leader is almost zero."

"That's why I quit the steel mill and opened the Dongjun Restaurant."

“But if I use my money to buy the steel mill in the future, I will be the owner of the steel mill.”

“You don’t have to worry about promotion like before.”

"As long as I find someone who knows how to produce to help me produce, someone who knows how to sell to help me sell the products, and someone who knows how to manage to be the deputy director of the steel mill, I, the boss behind the scenes, can be a hands-off manager. I only need to go to the steel mill regularly to check the profits and collect the money."

"In my eyes, even if the steel mill is going downhill now, it is still a hen that lays golden eggs. The key lies in how to manage it."

"So if there is an opportunity in the future and I have enough capital, I will definitely choose to buy the steel mill and become its boss myself."

Seeing that Wang Dong's words were well-reasoned, Chen Jun chose to believe it without hesitation.

After hesitating for another half a minute, he made a decision: "In this case, I will listen to you and find a way to transfer away from the steel mill so that the steel mill can be rebuilt as soon as possible."

…………

Early the next morning, Wang Dong went to find someone to arrange for his wife's transfer, and at the same time went to select a site for the second Dongjun Restaurant.

Wang Dong spent a total of 40,000 yuan to open the first Dongjun Restaurant.

It cost me almost 50,000 yuan to buy the courtyard house. In total, I bought seven courtyards of different sizes. In the end, I had less than 20,000 yuan left.

Adding the restaurant's profit for half a month, Wang Dong's savings once again exceeded 30,000 yuan, and he was fully capable of opening a second restaurant.

And opening a restaurant is not something that can be done overnight.

Selecting a site, building a house, decorating...all together it would take at least three months.

The first Dongjun Restaurant, located directly opposite the steel rolling mill, will continue to operate. As long as there are no problems with the business, it can bring him at least 30,000 yuan in profit every month, which can fully meet his financial needs for opening a second or even a third restaurant.

According to my wife's introduction to the steel mill, the mill will become insolvent due to continuous losses in three years at most. That will be the best time for me to buy the steel mill.

So Wang Dong must seize every opportunity to make money.

Only by opening Dongjun Hotel in the remaining three directions of Sijiu City as soon as possible can Wang Dong accumulate wealth quickly in a short period of time and have the ability to purchase a steel mill.

At this moment, in another courtyard less than one kilometer away from the courtyard, Xiao Dangzheng and Guo Piezi's family were furious.

Today I was chatting with my neighbors in the yard, and the conversation turned to my man Guo Piezi.

It was also at this time that Xiaodang truly understood what kind of person Guo Piezi was.

When he learned that before Guo Piezi married him, he spent a large amount of his salary every month on drinking and partying, and even had to borrow money from neighbors and co-workers to do so, he was completely dumbfounded.

Guo Piezi borrowed money from his neighbors and co-workers to spend on drinking and partying, which meant that it was impossible for him to save any money.

In Xiaodang's opinion, Guo Piaozi had at least 5,000 to 6,000 yuan in savings. He even dreamed that Guo Piaozi had tens of thousands of yuan in savings.

As long as she gave birth to a son for Guo Piezi, all the tens of thousands of savings in Guo Piezi's hands would fall into her hands.

As a result, the neighbor told him that Guo Piezi did not have a penny in savings and that all the wages he received from the steel rolling mill had been spent on wine and women. How could this be possible?

Just then, the neighbor told her another story, which Xiaodang had no choice but to believe.

In the first month of marriage with Guo Piezi, perhaps because Guo Piezi was attracted to Xiaodang, he came home on time after get off work almost every day and fulfilled his promise to give Xiaodang 20 yuan for living expenses.

When he was in a good mood, he would give Xiaodang a dollar or two. At the end of the month, Xiaodang received a total of 40 yuan for living expenses and pocket money from Guo Piezi, which was more than ten yuan higher than the salary of a regular worker in the steel mill.

At that time, Xiao Dang was so happy that he almost lost his mind.

She secretly swore in her heart that she would give Guo Piezi a son as soon as possible. In this way, she could not only get all of Guo Piezi's savings, but also completely tie Guo Piezi, the God of Wealth, to herself.

Starting from the second month, Guo Piezi no longer went home on time after get off work every day, and even stayed out all night for two nights.

The explanation Guo Piezi gave was that he was working overtime at night.

Because Guo Piezi gave Xiaodang 20 yuan for living expenses on time and an additional 7 or 8 yuan for pocket money, Xiaodang, who was greedy for money, did not suspect anything.

But the money I got from Guo Piezi that month was obviously more than ten yuan less than the first month.

In the third month of their marriage, Guo Piezi's number of nights out increased significantly. Apart from the 20 yuan living expenses he promised Xiaodang, he hardly gave Xiaodang any pocket money.

Although Xiaodang felt something was wrong, he didn't think too much about it, nor did he dare to think too much about it.

Because she is pregnant.

By this month, Guo Piezi did not go home more often because of Xiaodang's pregnancy. As for the number of times he went home on time after get off work, it could be described as very few.

They have also become more stingy when it comes to giving money.

Apart from the 20 yuan living expenses that was promised, he didn't give me any more pocket money.

Coupled with the reminder from the neighbors that Guo Piezi used to spend money on wine and women and borrow money everywhere, Xiaodang finally realized that he had been cheated.

As soon as Guo Piezi returned home, she asked Guo Piezi to hand over the family savings to her on the grounds that she was pregnant.

But Guo Piezi always refused with various reasons.

In order to prevent Xiaodang from getting angry and causing miscarriage, which would affect the baby in her belly, Guo Piezi also specifically promised that he would hand over the savings as long as Xiaodang gave birth to the baby in her belly.

Listening to Guo Piezi's lies and watching his constantly evasive gaze, Xiaodang knew that Guo Piezi was fooling him again, and immediately asked to take a look at the stored funds.

Take a look at it first, and then help Guo Piezi keep it after the baby is born.

This request should be considered very reasonable, but it was still rejected by Guo Piezi.

Guo Piezi didn't have any savings, so he didn't save it. Apart from trying every possible way to reject Xiaodang's request, Guo Piezi couldn't find any other way to solve the problem.

So Xiaodang got angry and started throwing things around the house. (End of this chapter)
