Chapter 279(1/4)
Only when you have money can you be free and easy
The New Year's Day holiday is coming, and the employees of Anye Home Decoration also took a few days off and did not continue the decoration.
There is a time limit for decoration in the community. Although most of the time, the decoration workers do not stick to the time. They still start work on Saturdays and Sundays, during the lunch break, and sometimes even at night.
However, starting work on a legal holiday like New Year's Day will cause great public anger and disturb the people. If we cannot continue to work in the community, it will be a big trouble.
The workers had been working for so long and needed a break, so Feng Chen and Yan Xin discussed it and gave them a holiday.
However, during these three days, Feng Chen and Ruan Mengyao did not return to Fengcheng. Instead, they invited Master Ruan's family to Yangcheng for three days, and even showed them the country they had conquered.
Yan Xin is one of the owners of Anye Home Decoration, owning 50% of the shares like Feng Chen. He is also a fellow villager and friend of Feng Chen. When Master Ruan and his family come, he will naturally participate in the reception.
The establishment of Anye Home Decoration Company was based on his investment and business introduction.
However, being able to recruit so many people to work was inseparable from Master Ruan's personal connections.
Master Ruan did not contribute any money, but he still made a great contribution to the development of this company.
Of course, a good relationship with such a person must be established.
Master Ruan drove his wife and daughter over in his van, and Yan Xin treated them to dinner at noon that day.
This was also the first time he met Master Ruan.
Master Ruan is not very old, only in his forties, and has been working as a bricklayer for more than twenty years. He is exposed to the wind and sun every day, and his skin has turned soy sauce color, making him look much older than his actual age.
After working as a foreman for almost a year, I walked around the construction site almost every day. Now I still look more like a migrant worker than a foreman.
Yan Xin still admires this person.
Master Ruan did not read many books and started working very early. He used to help people build houses in his hometown, then he went to work in the city, and then he went to the south.
Over the years, I have earned a fortune through hard work, bought a house in Xiaorong Town, and a van.
Before I became a contractor, my income was already higher than that of most families.
He also embodies the four words of getting rich through hard work.
An opportunity arose last year. I grabbed it and suddenly became a contractor from a master mason. In the first half of the year, I had to consolidate my position as a contractor and made a lot of investments. I didn't make much money. But in the second half of the year, I took another job.
It's a big job. If the settlement goes smoothly at the end of the year, you can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars and buy a very nice house in Fengcheng.
If you keep doing it, it will be no problem to earn a net worth of tens of millions.
Although he is already a contractor, his appearance is similar to that of most migrant workers Yan Xin has seen. He looks quite simple.
Thinking that the interior decoration company with Feng Chen would have a lot to rely on from this person in the future, Yan Xin was very polite to him.
He was also very polite to Yan Xin and showed a certain degree of respect.
Yan Xin told Feng Chen about Wei Qiang's affairs, and Master Ruan later took advantage of the situation to overthrow Wei Qiang and become the contractor himself.
Feng Chen opened this interior decoration company with the help of Yan Xin. From the initial investment to accepting jobs, Yan Xin made a great contribution.
Based on these two points, he also had to be polite to Yan Xin.
The couple are both very hard-working, and they know how to live well, and they don't have the habit of spending a lot of money.
Under this family style, the two daughters are also more frugal than their peers.
Ruan Mengyao went to work in an electronics factory after graduating from high school. Later, when Feng Chen started his own business, she also came to help. She also received a salary of more than 1,000 yuan a month. It was similar to working in an electronics factory, but she had a lot more things to worry about.
.
After all, it's my boyfriend's company.
Ruan Siyao is in her third year of high school, and her grades are not very good, but they are not bad either. She may be admitted to college, so now she carries her schoolbag with her when she goes out to play, and she still has to study every day.
While eating, she complained to Yan Xin that the pressure to study was so heavy that she no longer wanted to go to college and only wanted to work after graduating from high school.
She also asked Yan Xin and Feng Chen: "Does your company still need people? If so, leave me a place and I will come to work in your company."
Feng Chen shook his head: "Our company has just opened, but we don't have money to support idle people."
Ruan Siyao was anxious: "I'm not an idler, I can also work."
Master Ruan scolded her: "If you can read, you have to give me a good read. After more than ten years of reading, there are only a few months left, why are you still complaining? In the future, if you don't have a high diploma, you will have to suffer."
!”
Ruan Siyao pouted and expressed her dissatisfaction: "None of you has a higher diploma than me. It's not like you can't find a job, so why do you need such a high diploma?"
This is true.
Needless to say, her parents have never read any books.
The other three people, Feng Chen, Yan Xin and her sister, also only went to high school. They are not lower than her now, but they are not higher than her either.
Just having graduated from high school does not affect both Feng Chen and Yan Xin from owning their own companies.
In her opinion, since you can achieve such achievements in high school, there is no need to study hard to go to college.
There were some students in the class who had no chance of getting into college. They had no expectations, so they had no motivation. They were just messing around in their senior year, which made her envious.
She knew that Yan Xin had only graduated from high school and had been working for more than a year and was already prospering.
She hoped that Yan Xin could convince her parents not to put so much pressure on herself and that it would be best to give up going to college.
However, Yan Xin did not speak for her, and said seriously: "It is true that our education is not high, we only went to high school, so when we graduated and looked for jobs, we couldn't find any good jobs. Your sister works in an electronics factory.
, Feng Chen is moving bricks at the construction site, and I am working as a security guard in the community. Do you also want to find a job like ours after graduating from high school? "
Feng Chen also joined in and said to Ruan Siyao: "Your sister works in an electronics factory. She works for several hours at a time. She can only rest when eating. She has to work for more than ten hours a day and only has two days off a month.
The time and salary are just over a thousand, do you want a job like this?"
Ruan Siyao felt a little scared when she thought of those days, and shook her head: "I don't want it."
Feng Chen added: "Not to mention mine. I go to the construction site to move bricks every day, and I'm exposed to the sun until I turn into a black man. I'm so tired that I'm dying for only a few dozen yuan a day.
, I don’t think you can do it in half a day. Let’s just say Yan Xin, the job he is looking for is easier, but he is scolded by the owner every day for being a lowly person, with a salary of several hundred yuan a month, do you also want to do it?
"
"But, you are all doing well now." Ruan Siyao said.
"We are doing well now because we are lucky and have met noble people. But can you guarantee that you will have such good luck?" Feng Chen said, "Of course there are people who have made great achievements without studying much, but
We have to look at the whole. Generally speaking, there is a big gap between those who have gone to college and those who have not."
Ruan Mengyao also nodded: "With low academic qualifications, it is really difficult to find a job. If you study seriously now, you will suffer for a few months, but if you give up, you will suffer for a lifetime."
Feng Chen also said: "My sister is also in the third year of high school like you, but she is studying very hard now. During the New Year's Day holiday, my family wants her to go back. She takes the initiative to stay in school and study hard. So her current grades are also
Very good, top three in the whole grade.”
Yan Xin thought to himself: "That's not because your sister loves studying. In these three days, she mainly manages the online store."
But it goes without saying that Feng Xi studied very hard.
Obviously I no longer need to rely on reading to change my destiny, but I still study with great discipline.
Since I was in my third year of high school, I have done very little management of online stores. I basically just contact them on QQ to understand the general operation and that's it.
Only when I am on vacation will I go over and take a look, carefully check the accounts, show my sense of existence, and also shock the employees not to have messy ideas.
She finally had a three-day holiday on New Year's Day. During these three days, she still had to study, but she would also take advantage of this holiday to spend more time on the management of the online store.
Not to mention opening an online store, Feng Xi's learning attitude and academic performance are enough for her to become "other people's children", used to educate those underachievers.
Ruan Siyao was very depressed when she heard what Feng Chen said, and said: "I don't have a brain as good as your sister. There are some things that I really can't learn."
Feng Chen disagreed: "If you can't learn, that's just lazy thinking. As long as you really want to learn, how can you not learn?"
Then, Yan Xin and Ruan Mengyao were embarrassed.
Because their college entrance examination scores are quite bad.
Ruan Siyao couldn't help laughing and asked Yan Xin:
"When you failed to get into college in the college entrance examination, was it because you were lazy or because you really couldn't study?"
Yan Xin said seriously: "I am not interested in studying because my family is poor and cannot afford to go to college."
This was a reason that Ai Lili found for him at the beginning. He has used it several times. The more he uses it, the easier it becomes. Now he takes it out without hesitation.
Although I am a bad student, I still don’t want to be considered a bad student.
Feng Chen confirmed from the side: "The conditions in Yan Xin's family are really poor. His mother passed away early, and his father raised him by himself. It was not easy. The situation at home is much worse than mine, and he really doesn't have the ability to provide for him.
He's in college."
Ruan Mengyao also lamented: "I went to see his house during the Chinese New Year. The houses he lived in were all made of mud from decades ago. I didn't expect such houses to exist in the 21st century. The conditions at home are really not good."
Ruan Siyao became interested: "What does an earthen house look like? I have never seen one before, and I really want to see it."
Feng Chen smiled and said: "You can't see it now. Yan Xin's family built a small villa this year. I heard my mother say that their house is the most beautiful house in the village."
Ruan Siyao smiled and asked Yan Xin: "Would you like us to be guests at your home during the Chinese New Year?"
Yan Xin said: "Okay, as long as I am at home, I will definitely welcome you to come over."
They had a meal together at noon, and in the afternoon they took the family to visit the company.
