Chapter 175 Swearing on the Grave(2/4)

Huang Qian actually didn't go to work today. He knew Li Xuewu was coming, so he came to block him.

It's not convenient to discuss matters with the club. It's more convenient to discuss the specific business at the prison in one's own home.

When Li Xuewu and he went downstairs again, the eldest brother was taking his sister-in-law to see the classroom where he was attending class.

Li Xuewu just told the people upstairs about the requirements of Jinmen Electronics Factory. Huang Qian will naturally handle the next thing. He also told Lao Biaozi this morning, and both of them said that Li Xuewu doesn't have to deal with this matter.

.

Teacher Wu also introduced Zhao Yafang's identity to the three accountants working here. Li Xuewu did not come forward. It was agreed that the accountants did not know Li Xuewu.

What they learned was that Zhao Yafang should also be sent by her employer to handle the accounts.

These three accountants used to work in the Lou family, and they knew the old rules very well. They didn't listen, didn't ask, and didn't tell.

Three accountants are in charge of keeping accounts and making statements, Teacher Wu is in charge of funds and expenditures, and Zhao Yafang is in charge of review, summary, and supervision. With three people and three directions, there is no doubt.

These accounts will be handed over to Lou's father and others for review on a regular basis, and there will definitely be no problems.

Li Xuewu's main purpose is to lay the foundation for the future, and financial issues are crucial.

The eldest brother Xuewen saw his lover going to the finance room, pulled his younger brother aside, and said softly: "Isn't this a bad idea?"

"What?"

Li Xuewu looked at his elder brother and raised his eyebrows, not quite understanding what he meant.

Li Xuewen glanced at the finance room, which was separated by a wall from the prison cell, and asked, "What do you mean by putting these three people in there? Do they know?"

"So what if you know?"

Li Xuewu smiled nonchalantly, knowing that his eldest brother was a soft-hearted person and was unwilling to do this for a favor.

Li Xuewen looked at his second brother and asked, "What if, I say, what would happen if these people made a mistake?"

"It depends on what mistake you made."

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said: "If it's a mistake, it's fine. But if it's just private work, then move to the next room and continue working. It's still the same thing, but they will never be able to get out, and it saves me more money."

The wages are paid."

Li Xuewen looked at his brother speechlessly. He knew why his brother put the financial office here. Which factory put the financial office in the prison, and which factory used the accountant as a guard against thieves.

Why!

This is what Li Xuewu does here. It doesn't deprive them of their wages, nor does it deprive them of food and drink. As long as you have the right mind, you can work like this.

He is really not afraid that these people will give him a Shawshank. He is not Norton, let alone Huang Qian.

Without deductions and bullying, how could these people have any objections? As long as there are no evil intentions, this place is safer than anywhere else.

The eldest sister-in-law did not go with Li Xuewu. It was arranged that the second child would drive to pick her up before dinner.

Li Xuewu first went to Haizi Villa, then went to his godmother's house to sit for a while, and then at around one o'clock in the afternoon, when the weather was hot, he went back to the courtyard to pick up Gu Ning.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The old lady said that she would wait for Liu Yin and stay one more night, so she took Li Shu and asked Li Xuewu and his wife to go back first.

Because Li Shu was sleeping, Gu Ning did not persist and rested at home with Li Xuewu for a while before going directly to the train station.

The Beijing Railway Station is a landmark building in the Forty-Nine Cities of this era. It looks really majestic, but there are really not many passengers coming in and out.

This is still the Beijing Railway Station. It would be even more like this if it were any other station.

The inconvenience of travel in this era does not just mean that it is inconvenient to take a train or a plane, but also that it is unaffordable.

Needless to say, flying is a high-end way of traveling, but let me ask, why can’t I afford to take the train?

Are train tickets expensive?

The train ticket from Fengcheng to Beijing only costs 2.6 yuan, which is about two days' wages for a worker, which is basically the same as in later generations.

But there is an old saying that goes well, a poor family can make a fortune by saving money at home, but they cannot save money by traveling far away.

The cost of chewing food on the road, transportation expenses, hotel expenses, and food expenses are not totaled. Once they are totaled, you will be shocked.

Old relatives in the capital must not dare to visit their relatives in the Northeast easily, unless they are rushing to celebrate the New Year and go alone to represent themselves.

When Li Xuewu drove the car to the square at the entrance of the train station, he truly realized the benefits of this era, there were no crowds!

This square is really spacious. There are no less than sixty or seventy cars parked near the flowerbed at the entrance. I don’t know which units they all belong to, so he parked them too. Anyway, no one is paying attention.

After walking a few steps with Gu Ning, they arrived under the shade and felt quite cool.

The wind in the square is cooler, and as long as the sun isn't shining on me, I don't feel too hot.

Gu Ning couldn't eat cold food, and he didn't like eating it, so the two people didn't stop even though there was an ice cream seller.

The train timetable at this time is very magical, not necessarily on time, sometimes faster and sometimes slower.

When long-distance trains pass through other sections, they have to give way to local trains. If you wait until you reach your own section, you won't be able to catch up if you go back, so it's common for long-distance trains to be delayed.

Li Xuewu originally thought that he would come here to save Gu Ning from having to suffer the consequences of waiting here.

But he couldn't bear Gu Ning's words, so Li Xuewu had no choice but to take the horse from home and prop it up against the wall for her to sit and rest.

Gu Ning looked up at Li Xuewu and asked, "Aren't you tired?"

"Not tired, sitting too much, standing is just right"

Li Xuewu reached out to touch the cigarette in his pocket, but felt that it was inappropriate here, so he withdrew his hand again.

Smoking and littering of cigarette butts are prohibited near the Beijing Railway Station. This control is much stricter than in later generations. If you dare to smoke, someone wearing a red cloth will definitely catch you and give you a slap in the face.

Li Xuewu didn't want to cause this trouble, and besides, Gu Ning didn't like him smoking, so he had to quit smoking.

There were quite a few people at the exit of the station, because it was shady and cool, and they were all hiding from the sun.

Gu Ning didn't take a break at noon, and now she felt a little lethargic. Seeing her like this, Li Xuewu stood beside her and motioned for her to lean on him and rest for a while.

Gu Ning gently leaned on Li Xuewu's leg, yawned, and fell asleep unconsciously.

When I felt someone talking next to me, I opened my eyes and found Gu Yan squatting in front of me, looking at me with a smile.

"when……"

She was about to stand up, but Li Xuewu held her shoulders down again. She raised her head and heard Li Xuewu looking down at her and saying: "I just woke up, sit down for a while before leaving, we are not busy."

"good"

Gu Ning responded, turned to look at Gu Yan and asked, "Are you tired?"

"If you're not tired, where are you going?"

Gu Yan smiled and replied to his sister's words, but his eyes glanced at his sister's belly.

"You two sisters talk, and I'll buy water."

Seeing that Gu Ning had sat down, Li Xuewu moved his numb legs and pointed in the direction of the service department to explain to Gu Ning and the other two.

Watching Li Xuewu leave, Gu Yanxiao asked: "Did my brother-in-law bully you? If you are wronged, I will avenge you!"

"What a fool!"

Gu Ning scolded his younger brother, and then asked about his parents in Yangcheng, especially his father's health.

"It's okay!"

Gu Yan twitched his lips and said, "You were very energetic when you were talking to me. You said I would be grown up when I have half the abilities of my brother-in-law."

Gu Ning pursed her lips and smiled, seeing her brother pretending to be jealous but unable to help laughing, she reached out and patted his head.

Li Xuewu walked to the service department and asked for two bottles of drinks. He didn't have to choose. There was only one kind of orange soda. If they had more than one, they were over the top.

"One bottle is cold, one bottle is room temperature, thank you"

The waiter glanced at Li Xuewu, reached out and pulled a bottle out of the case, then went to the refrigerator to get another bottle, and asked impatiently: "Are you opening it?"

“No, thank you”

Li Xuewu's voice was still gentle, and there was no change in the waiter's tone.

When the waiter saw Li Xuewu like this, he didn't use that expression or tone of voice anymore.

Do I need a ticket to buy soda?

I want them too, but there are rarely scattered tickets, but mostly boxes of tickets that Li Xuewu brought back from the factory.

What to do with the scattered ones?

You can exchange for general stamps, food stamps, any kind of stamps, because you don’t have to drink soda, but you always have to eat rice.

After looking at the food stamps and money handed over by Li Xuewu, the salesperson nodded and said, "That's it."

Li Xuewu carried two bottles of soda and walked back slowly, trying to give the two sisters as much time as possible to talk.

I have only met this brother-in-law a few times, but they are both men, and there is no need to hold hands in the bathroom.

First, he broke open the room temperature bottle and handed it to Gu Ning, then broke open the iced bottle and handed it to Gu Yan.

Gu Yan thanked him, stood up, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Brother-in-law, please drink, I'm not thirsty."

"Haha, drink yours, I don't eat sweet things, and I don't drink cold things either."

Li Xuewu knew that Gu had delayed the meeting, so the three of them bought two bottles of soda. Wouldn't it embarrass others?
