Zhao Tianlei had no objections, "I’ve been busy with the electrical factory lately, still need to recruit workers. I want to get Master Gu to work at the factory, but he hasn’t agreed."
Master Gu was once an engineer at an electrical factory in the Capital City.
"We can bring him over, let him be the deputy plant manager, only in charge of technology, with the same authority, and also find him a house and hire a nanny to take care of him."
We can’t just go down Er Dan’s path; it was them who sent Er Dan to study back then.
Moreover, Er Dan is grateful; we can’t just take advantage of him.
"We’ll see how it goes!"
Talking about Er Dan, Yun Xiaoxiao thought about the letter she received.
"Er Dan’s brother and sister-in-law also inquired about Er Dan from father and mother."
"Trying to get some benefits from Er Dan?"
Zhao Tianlei was not curious at all.
He knew what kind of people Er Dan’s brother and sister-in-law were.
Just like Xiao Yang’s aunt and Little Aunt.
Now that they think he’s successful, they assume the people around him must also be doing well.
"Ignore them. I also asked Er Dan; he won’t go back home for a few years. Besides his parents, he doesn’t miss anyone there."
Yun Xiaoxiao thought of the days Er Dan had lived through.
Maybe many people are nostalgic about their hometown.
But Er Dan hates that place. Before his parents passed away, there was still care, but once they passed, the people around him changed instantly, making him feel as if he was covered in thorns and spikes.
"Are we going back this year?"
Zhao Tianlei hugged her and asked, "You can go back if you want, or not if you don’t."
Zhao Tianlei didn’t really care.
"We didn’t go back last year, and if we don’t this year, a lot of people in the village will talk. Besides, Daya and the others need to go to school, you need to make a statement on this, and also take the opportunity to check the herbs they’re planting."
They haven’t received the money for the herbal seeds yet.
It’s not Captain Zhao’s fault; some families really can’t come up with that amount of money and can only write IOUs.
The next day, when she had some free time, Yun Xiaoxiao wrote a letter to her in-laws, stuffed it in the package, along with the monthly pension money they sent.
"Captain Zhao, Captain Zhao, there’s a postal order for you."
Captain Zhao was busy working in the field when he suddenly heard the mailman’s call.
Many villagers heard this voice too.
"Did Shitou send money to his parents again?"
"Isn’t that obvious?"
They received money again.
Captain Zhao signed the slip and thanked the mailman.
This money was sent, and so was a package.
Malted milk, sugar, seaweed, dried shrimp, and a lot of other things.
Honestly, in over decades of life, he’s received more packages in the past year than he had in all the years before.
"Shitou’s mother, your son Shitou sent you money and things again."
Mrs. Zhao smiled and said, "Laosan and his wife are filial."
Apparently, the things Laosan’s wife sent these past few months were more than before.
Mrs. Zhao knew what was going on.
She shared a portion with the eldest to send over.
The eldest family was at most willing to eat one egg a day, not willing to buy anything else.
The first batch of rabbits in the village were ready for sale. Zhao Tianhai was so busy he couldn’t stand still. He made deals with several factories in the city.
They slaughtered them on their side, only needed the meat, and sent it to the factories.
Returning the first day, early in the morning, he took more than a dozen cleaned rabbits to the factory.
Gradually, some restaurants also started coming to him for orders.
Zhao Tianhai was both pained and happy.
He couldn’t meet the demand.
He even went to farther places to buy pigs.
Occasionally, he asked his elder brother to help with money issues, directly rented the team’s tractor, paying the daily rate for its use.
