Chapter 597 Difficulties in ordinary life
After returning home, Hu Li took the food prepared by his wife at noon to the microwave as usual. They were both very busy with work. If they went home and cooked, they often ended up after 10 o'clock in the evening. Therefore, his wife always ran home during the lunch break at noon to prepare the evening meal. Because they were close, they could sometimes lie in bed and rest for half an hour.
This matter is sad to say. The most important thing for Chinese people is to not eat fresh dishes for dinner. The middle-aged women who love gossip in their hometown can't help but say a few more words about the bad things in big cities. But somehow, his wife didn't think it was so great.
Every time after get off work, she would always show off to Hu Li proudly what kind of quick-shou dish she had learned. She prepared it for ten minutes at noon and slept for an hour. Hu Li was also very cooperative. No matter how unpleasant the dishes she tried were made for the first time, he swallowed with a smile.
Today's dish is a fish-flavored eggplant pot. The overheated eggplant is already a little black, and it also emits a burnt smell of canned yaki fish after being heated. Hu Li picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, and smiled helplessly and shook his head.
Fortunately, this dish is just "not delicious". For him, who is already used to all kinds of strange dishes, it is not impossible to swallow.
He stood there and thought for a moment, took out two sausages from the refrigerator, put them in the microwave for two minutes, then took them out to slice them, and when he put them in the plate, his wife happened to come back from work and open the door.
"I'm back!"
Hearing his wife's cheerful voice as usual, Hu Li quickly stood up to greet her. The other party ignored the oil stains on his hands and rushed up to hug him and acted coquettishly. The two of them were so sucked for a while before they separated. They packed their things and sat at the dining table to start moving.
“The eggplant today is pretty good.”
Hu Li said.
"Bao, what's good? It's so salty. I shouldn't put salt in cans, remember next time."
My wife smiled and felt a little ashamed.
"It's okay, it's good to do it for the first time. How is it today? Is the work going smoothly?"
"It's okay! I'm going to send wedding candy today, and our leader congratulated me on coming. He said he had prepared a big red envelope for us. I don't know how big it is - I guess it will be distributed to the first half of the year's prize."
"You said that these leaders are all good at humanity, and they are not sure about the bonus. I don't know how much he sends. Can this be considered a red envelope? Why don't you give me 200 yuan..."
Hu Li was funny. Compared to her work on the client line all year round, her wife's work content is simpler and does not have much so-called human nature, so it is difficult for her to see the meaning behind a bonus.
In his opinion, his wife's leader obviously planned to give her some support at work - after all, he had met the other party several times, and intuition told him that he was a fairly kind old-school middle-aged woman with some old-fashioned habits, but also had the human touch in the courtyard.
Thinking of this, he spoke:
"You, will they lose your red envelopes? She means taking this opportunity to give you a personal favor, which will be beneficial to your future development. When you come back from vacation, we will treat her to a meal alone and repay the favor."
"Oh... I got it."
After hearing Hu Li's words, my wife nodded reluctantly, then sighed and said:
"Hey, I have to spend money again... Is there any way to repay favors without spending money? For example, to invite her to have a meal at home?"
"That's fine, but your relationship is not that close yet. Usually, you have to be very good friends when you go to your house for dinner. Now if you invite me, people may not be willing to come."
"It's okay, it's just a meal, it won't cost much. We spend so much money on getting married, so that's not bad."
"That's right, but the small money adds up a lot---do you know how much money we have?"
"How many?"
Hu Li asked curiously.
He did not have a clear understanding of the family’s property, but had a general concept. According to his estimate, the deposit was about 700,000 to 800,000, which was still a gap from buying a house, but he could get it even by tiptoeing.
"794,000. We will save up to 800,000 when I get my salary next month. Alas, it sounds quite big, but I feel that it's still far from buying a house."
The expression on his wife's face was a little helpless, and Hu Li thrust in his heart and did not respond.
The topic of houses is the topic they both mentioned most often but are least willing to raise. They both knew that they had to have their own house, but where did the money come from?
The lives of small people do not have so many magnificent choices. The choices of life and death are more about pressure and setbacks like cutting flesh with a dull knife, and slowly eroding away the already-not-so-desirable will.
In fact, most of these problems point to the same core - money.
With money, many things can be solved easily.
No wonder so many people are standing by and taking the risk of taking the paths of criminal law.
Hu Li sighed in his heart, and then he smiled sarcastically again. The wife opposite noticed his expression and asked:
"What are you laughing at?"
Hu Li raised his head and replied:
"No, I just laughed at us calculating money here so much. Actually, I have a way to get the money. Do you want to hear it?"
"Speak quickly!"
My wife's eyes lit up instantly, and she couldn't wait to ask.
Hu Li cleared his throat, put down the bowl in his hand, and said seriously:
“Do you know the news about immune reconstruction therapy recently?”
The wife tilted her head and thought for a moment, and replied:
"I heard of it a little, but I didn't look at it carefully---what is wrong? Will your company participate in this project?"
Hu Li shook his head, then nodded again.
"It is considered to be participants, but not directly. Our company is one of the core suppliers of Sut products and has mastered about 20% of Sut channels in China. It can be said that if the immune reconstruction therapy needs to enter the standardized test, it is necessary to purchase a large number of Sut products from our company."
"And what? You mean you can get a commission?"
"No, how much commission is, it can't solve the problem... I mean, someone is eyeing this cake, they want to buy our company at a high price, and part of it is to compensate employees."
"You know, our company has a collective shareholding structure. Major decisions like acquisitions require signatures from the employee committee--I am one of the representatives of the committee."
"I'm sure that as long as I sign, I can definitely get a considerable signing fee."
"Sign it! Why don't you sign it!"
The wife's expression immediately became excited. Before Hu Li could explain, she continued to speak:
"You said, who is doing your company's business is not doing it, anyway, it's just an acquisition, and the production process will not change----the content of your work should not change, right?"
"That won't be...but do you want to hear who wants to acquire us?"
"who?"
The wife opposite also put down the bowl, looked at Hu Li with a serious expression, and suddenly realized that things might not be that simple.
Hu Li sighed and said:
"Xiansheng Pharmaceutical."
