Chapter 21: Eighty Soldiers 21

Not long after Jiang Rui's red and white checked dress went out, many similar styles appeared on the streets. She made another aqua-blue shirt-style one-piece dress, but within a few days, many people wore the same clothes as her.
She started to compete, and spent a lot of thought, hooked a complicated hollow cardigan with crochet hook and wool, and matched it with the newly made red dress, which was fashionable and elegant. This time, no one was like her.
A few days later, when she went out to buy groceries, she met a stranger to talk to.
The visitor claimed to be the deputy director of the garment factory. He happened to see the plaid long skirt worn by Jiang Rui a while ago. After smelling the business opportunity, he organized a batch of plaid skirts in the factory to cater to the trend of young people. It was quickly sold out. The shirts and skirts that followed were also the work of their factory. If it weren't for Jiang Rui's later cardigan practice to be too complicated, I am afraid that the same style is all over the street now.
"You mean, you want me to be a technician in your factory and teach workers how to make clothes?" Jiang Rui felt a little strange.
"Yes." Shi Kaiming couldn't help but look at her more, then said: "But it's not the Red Star Factory, it's another garment factory."
With the changes in national policies, some people with a keen sense of smell moved by the wind, Shi Kaiming is one of them.
He is the deputy director of a clothing factory and travels frequently to various places. He has different vision and courage from ordinary people. He has already discovered the great benefits of the term trend and wants to go to the sea by himself, but he is reluctant to bear the iron rice bowl and hesitates.
Until recently, several novel costumes produced by the Red Star Factory were snapped up, and the large amount of money returned made him realize once again that the people have money in their hands and are willing to spend money on new trends.
Networking, sales, production materials, plant equipment, these are not a problem for him, in that case, why not give it a go?
He approached Jiang Rui, first because of her trendy taste, and second, to emphasize her outstanding appearance.
The same piece of clothing, worn by different people, must have different effects. If Jiang Rui is not beautiful enough, no matter how fashionable clothes are worn, how can others compete to imitate it?
This is the same as the popular Xiaoqing shirt and Xingzi shirt.
Jiang Rui was very interested in what he said. She liked to make beautiful clothes by herself. If she can do what she loves and have money to get, why not do it?
But she didn't agree immediately, and she had to ask Zhao Nan's opinion. The two agreed to see each other two days later.
Halfway through the summer, Jiang Rui received a letter from his home stating that Du Baozhen had finished the college entrance examination and did well in the exam, and was admitted to a college in the provincial capital.
She is the first college student in the Xishan brigade, and she is counted in the Chaoyang Commune. For this reason, the commune specially rewarded the Du family with fifty yuan, and the team also awarded fifty yuan.
When Zhao Nan returned, Jiang Rui was writing a reply at the table.
"A letter from home?" Zhao Nan walked behind her, leaning over her on the table.
Jiang Rui leaned back and leaned in his arms, "Baozhen has been admitted to college, and his parents are very happy. The letter says that there is a table for celebration at home."
"It's a good thing, are we going to wrap a red envelope back?"
This can be regarded as their local custom. If there is a child in the family who is admitted to college, relatives and friends will send red envelopes, no matter how many, it is the heart.
"Yeah." Jiang Rui nodded, "I'm thinking about how suitable the bag is."
"You are the master." Zhao Nan said, the economic power of their small family is now in the hands of Jiang Rui.
"Wait a minute to ask Zheng Ge and his sister-in-law." Jiang Rui couldn't make up his mind either. "By the way, there is another thing to tell you."
She told Zhao Nan about meeting Shi Kaiming today and the other party's intentions.
"I met it on the street?" Zhao Nan frowned.
"Yes, I haven't responded to him yet, what do you think?"
Zhao Nan said,
Be cautious when you meet strangers in the future. Don’t talk to them casually. Some people have bad intentions.

"What? Right at the gate of our military area, with so many guards guarding, which bad guy would dare to come? Besides, I look so stupid and so cheating?" Jiang Rui was not convinced.
Zhao Nan didn't speak, he couldn't say that in his heart, every strange man who talked to his wife was criticized by him as being unkind, right?
Jiang Rui asked again: "Then do you agree?"
"You want to go?" Zhao Nan asked back.
"I think it's pretty good, just make a few clothes and still have money."
Zhao Nan said: "When the time comes, I will ask for a leave and go and talk with the other party with you."
"Don't you can't walk away?" She had been here for so long, except for the previous leg injury, she had never seen him take a serious rest.
"It's okay." If you can't walk away, you have to make time. He hasn't seen it with his own eyes.
So two days later, Zhao Nan and Jiang Rui went to see Shi Kaiming together.
Jiang Rui was listening, watching two men come and go. It was the first time that she saw Zhao Nan's sharp words. Originally, Shi Kaiming just wanted Jiang Rui to be a technician. Later, Zhao Nan talked about becoming a technology shareholder. Although the share is not much, it is not the same as the original Compared with getting a fixed salary, there is a fundamental difference.
When he went back, Jiang Rui's eyes looked at Zhao Nan.
Zhao Nan didn't squint all the way, and seemed unmoved, until he returned to his home and closed the door, his ears slowly turned red.
Jiang Rui smiled and threw himself on his back, unceremoniously praised: "Uncle is really great."
"Beware of falling." Zhao Nan supported her with both hands.
"How can you know so much?"
Zhao Nan confessed: "I asked the political commissar for advice."
"So that's the case, but just now, the uncle's momentum in strategizing and controlling the overall situation is still too strong, and he will suppress the other party in one fell swoop."
Zhao Nan just snorted, the little wife praised her without reservation, which always made her face hot.
Since then, Jiang Rui has also become a woman with a job and a career.
Every morning, the two of them go to the camp to go to the camp, to go to work, each have lunch at noon, go home in the evening to make dinner together, and walk downstairs after dinner.
At first, people saw their husband and wife coming in and out together, as if they were the same person, and they often joked. Later, I got used to it, but occasionally he still sighed. When Camp Leader Zhao looked at such a reticent person, he did not expect to be very considerate to his wife.
At the end of the year, Zhao Nan got a TV ticket. The two negotiated and spent 420 yuan to move back a 12-inch TV from the department store. It was only black and white. The color TV cost more than two thousand.
This year, the material is too scarce. The salary of an ordinary worker is only 30 or 40 yuan. If you want to buy a TV, you have to save for nearly a year without eating or drinking, and even if you save enough money, if you can’t get a ticket. , Still can't buy.
After buying the TV, Jiang Rui's great unity was reduced by half. Before she was distressed, the clothing factory paid dividends.
It has only been a few months since she opened the factory, and she was allocated five hundred and sixty yuan.
She occupies a small share, and Shi Kaiming can only earn more. With such an amazing profit, it is no wonder that he is willing to abandon the iron rice bowl he has been holding for ten or twenty years.
Regardless of how much others earn, Jiang Rui only knows that she is rich again. The banknotes in her hand are counted up and down. She slapped the table and said boldly, "Go, let's go to the restaurant."
Zhao Nan also let her go, really changed his clothes, and went out to eat.
When it first entered the winter, Zhang Liyun asked Zhao Qianqian to write to them and ask them whether he would go home for the New Year this year.
Zhao Nan intends to go back. He used to be alone, but now he is worried about his wife being homesick. It was only during the Spring Festival last year that he took family leave, and this year it should be someone else's turn. Therefore, he and Jiang Rui only set off on the return journey until the first month of the first month and the previous wave of family visitors returned.
Jiang Rui brought gifts to everyone in the family, and brought them home in large and small bags.
Last year, she left home, wearing cotton-padded clothes and cotton shoes. Now she wears a new woolen coat and small leather boots from their factory. Walking on the yellow mud road of the brigade, she met many acquaintances and hesitated seeing her. He didn't dare to speak, thinking he had admitted wrong, until Jiang Rui smiled and greeted them one by one.
Needless to say the surprise of others, the Zhao family was naturally surprised and happy.
Zhang Liyun was happy and self-satisfied. She knew that this daughter-in-law had chosen the right choice. In the past, the stinky boy was single, just like a wild horse without the rein. There were not many letters all year round, let alone regular visits. Nowadays, I have a fixed letter every month. The beautiful handwriting tells me that it came from my daughter-in-law at a glance, and when I went home to see them, I also knew that I went home to buy something.
There was not much change in the family, except that Li Xiaoe was pregnant again, his belly bulging high, and Jiang Rui looked curiously for a long time.
Seeing her performance, Zhang Liyun also remembered something in her heart: It stands to reason that her son and daughter-in-law have been married for more than a year, and the relationship between the two looks good. They are together again this year. There should be good news. Nothing at all?
Is it because the body is not strong enough? It doesn't look like it, so I won't say anything about it. He is as strong as a cow, and his daughter-in-law can do all kinds of tasks, unlike a weak person.
That is the brat who is too tired in the army and has no energy?
It's possible that when other soldiers in the brigade came back, they all said how painful and exhausting the training was in the army, and they would sleep like dead pigs every day when they touch the bed. If you are really tired like that, even if there is a flower-like daughter-in-law next to her, I am afraid it will not be tempting.
Zhang Liyun thought quickly, if her son had no energy outside, he would have to hurry home during the time he went home. She turned her mind and went out the door. When she came back, she went to cook and cook secretly.
At the dinner table in the evening, Zhao Nan divided a bowl of soup alone, but no one else.
