Chapter 142: This Is Something You Can’t Envy
The accountant and the cashier counted the money, confirmed that it was twenty thousand yuan, signed it, and then locked it in the safe.
Soon, the news that Song Chu had earned twenty thousand yuan for the breeding farm spread throughout the farm.
Song Chu didn’t think it was something that needed to be kept secret. After all, the money for purchasing equipment had to come from this, so she let them spread it.
It was also a good opportunity to let everyone know the value of technology.
The workers at the breeding farm could hardly believe it, but when they heard Tang Youhua and Tang Wei say so, they had to believe it.
Some people even ran to ask the accountant and the cashier. After confirming it, they excitedly continued to spread the news.
When the workers went home for dinner after work, they also shared the news with their families.
Then the whole village was in an uproar. Song Chu was really too amazing.
To earn twenty thousand yuan without selling chickens and ducks was unbelievable.
The Song family was also having dinner at this time. Song Lao Si was bragging to his family about his feelings when he saw the stacks of money and how nervous he was on the way back.
“I was on tenterhooks riding my bike, but Little Sister acted as if she wasn’t carrying twenty thousand yuan but a pile of waste paper. Awesome, right?” He took a bite of food and said to the others.
Tang Feng said proudly, “Nonsense, can my Yaobao be the same as you bunch of fools?”
Song Youfu nodded. “That’s right, all of you combined are not as good as one finger of Yaobao.”
Song Lao Si: “…” Was the gap that big?
“Awesome.” Song Lao Er gave a thumbs up, then looked at Song Chu resentfully. “Sister, why didn’t you ask me to go and see this kind of thing? That’s twenty thousand yuan. We haven’t seen that much money in our entire lives.”
Song Chu said exasperatedly, “You’re not an employee of the breeding farm. Why would I ask you to go?”
“Besides, why are you so short-sighted? It’s just twenty thousand yuan. What’s the big deal about seeing it or not?” She felt that she should broaden her family’s horizons even more.
The three Song brothers: “…”
It’s just twenty thousand yuan. Has Little Sister become so inflated?
“Little Sister, that’s twenty thousand yuan, not two hundred yuan. Even if you don’t eat or drink and save your salary every month, you won’t have twenty thousand yuan in twenty years,” Song Lao Er couldn’t help but say.
He was just short-sighted and wanted to see what twenty thousand yuan looked like. So what?
Song Chu rolled her eyes. “Only you won’t have twenty thousand yuan in twenty years. You’re so thick-headed.”
“Let me tell you, in a few years, twenty thousand yuan won’t be worth that much, and it won’t be that hard to earn.”
“In a few years, our family will not only earn many twenty thousand yuan, but we will also buy a car and a big house.”
She would definitely buy a car to drive in the future.
“Really?” Song Lao Er’s eyes widened. He felt that Little Sister was bragging a little too much.
Others also felt that this was difficult to achieve. Buying a car? Don’t kid them. There were not many cars in the whole county.
Song Chu raised her chin. “Of course, it’s true.”
“Let me ask you, did we get that twenty thousand yuan because of me?” She asked.
Song Lao Er nodded. “Yes, you are indeed very capable in this regard, but that’s also public money belonging to the farm.”
“Sister, are you planning to get a car for the breeding farm in a few years?” Song Lao Si’s eyes lit up and asked.
Song Chu shook her head. “I won’t be at the breeding farm in a few years. Whether they get a car or not has nothing to do with me. I’m saying that our family will buy a car.”
“To tell you the truth, I heard some news. In two years, the policy will be relaxed, and then private business will no longer be considered speculation and profiteering.”
“Will we still worry about not earning twenty thousand yuan then? Will we still worry about not being able to afford a car?” She planned to give the Song family a heads-up in advance to raise their expectations for the future.
Everyone was shocked. “Who did you hear that from? Is it true?”
Song Chu replied, “I heard it from someone in the county. His family is from the Imperial Capital, so he has some inside information.”
“We can do business? That’s great. I can hardly believe it,” Song Lao Si smacked his lips.
◈◈◈
Song Chu said, “What’s there to not believe? Ten years ago, people could do business. In the future, it will just be restored.”
When everyone heard this, they also felt it was true. In previous years, people could indeed do business. Maybe it would be restored in the future.
Song Chu continued, “But don’t go out and talk about it. Otherwise, if you are accused of spreading rumors and taken away for public criticism, I won’t care.”
She still needed to remind them.
“Of course, we won’t talk about it outside!” The whole family nodded.
“If that’s the case, then our family might really be able to make that much money and buy a car.” Although Song Lao Er liked to shirk work and behave dishonestly, he was also really a little smart.
With her Little Sister’s ability, earning money was too easy.
Song Lao Si’s eyes were shining. “If we can really do business, that would be great. I will definitely go and do it myself.”
Although working at the farm was also interesting, he felt that he was more suited for excitement.
Because of the changes in recent months, Song Chu had established a very high image and prestige, so the people of the Old Song family did not doubt her.
Besides, even if they couldn’t do business openly, she seemed to be able to make money secretly. Just look at the thousands of yuan for installing the telephone.
“Little Sister, the future of this family depends on you,” Song Lao Er looked at Song Chu with burning eyes.
Song Chu raised her eyebrows. “Of course, who else can we rely on? Can we rely on you? Are you reliable?”
This made the whole family agree. “That’s right. This family now and in the future depends on Yaobao/Little Sister. If we rely on you, we might not even have food to eat.”
Song Lao Er: “…” That hurt! Can they still have a good chat?
However, no matter what, the people of the Old Song family had more hope for the future. Becoming a ten-thousand-yuan household and owning a car, it was wonderful just thinking about it.
After dinner, Tang Feng and Song Youfu put down their bowls and chopsticks and couldn’t wait to go out to the entrance of the village to chat under the banyan tree.
Their daughter had earned twenty thousand yuan today. Many people in the village must have known about it. Of course, they had to go out and show off.
The three Song brothers had the same idea. While Song’s Second Eldest Brother’s Wife was cleaning up, they went out.
They wanted to brag to the young men in the village, especially Song Lao Si, who had seen what twenty thousand yuan looked like, was even more impatient.
Sure enough, as soon as the people of the Old Song family went out, they were surrounded by villagers.
“Tang Feng, how is Chu Chu so capable? She actually earned twenty thousand yuan for the breeding farm.”
“I heard from Chu Chu that you made those down jackets. Tang Feng, how are you so capable? I knew Chu Chu took after you.”
Tang Feng liked to hear this the most.
“Youfu, you really chose the right name. With such a capable and competent daughter like Chu Chu, you just wait to enjoy your later years.”
“The Old Song family’s ancestral graves must be emitting green smoke to have raised such a capable girl like Chu Chu.”
“Why can’t our family give birth to such a promising and capable child?”
The middle-aged and elderly people praised Tang Feng and Song Youfu, and they envied them for having a good daughter. They felt that they were just missing a good daughter.
Tang Feng and Song Youfu were full of pride. They liked this moment of showing off and being praised.
“Your sister is too awesome. She made twenty thousand yuan in one go. Why don’t I have such a sister?”
The young men in the village were extremely envious of the Song brothers. They felt that they were also missing a good sister.
The three Song brothers not only showed off but also provoked envy. “My sister is my sister. This is something you can’t envy.”
