Chapter 212: Chapter 213: Third Uncle Xu’s Pride
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Third Uncle Xu proudly extended ten fingers, “This much.”
Everyone in the room, except for Xu Ying, had a bewildered look on their faces. If it were just ten yuan, Third Uncle certainly wouldn’t have suddenly given his mom thirty.
Grandpa Xu frowned, “Kid, stop beating around the bush and just tell us how much you earned.”
With a snort, Third Uncle Xu said unenthusiastically, “Not a lot, after working for over a month, I’ve only made one hundred yuan.
Then I went to work at the textile factory for half a month, didn’t earn much, thirty yuan.”
“Third brother, when did you start working at a textile factory? What did you do!” Uncle Xu was shocked.
The corners of Third Uncle Xu’s eyes were filled with smugness, “I’ve been there for a while now, working in sales. If I’m lucky, I might even become the head of the sales department!”
Uncle Xu was somewhat incredulous, turning his head to look at his niece, “Yingying, is what your third uncle says true?”
“True, my third uncle has a way with words, it’s just that before he never used them properly. Just in time, I became a designer at the textile factory, and I got my third uncle a job in the sales department.
The sales department looks at performance, there aren’t as many rules as other departments, and they’re not as strict. Uncle, if you want, you could also give it a try,” Xu Ying said with a smile, worried that her uncle might get upset for not being invited along.
Sometimes people are just like that, especially family members; you’re afraid of creating misunderstandings if you don’t handle something properly.
Uncle Xu shook his head at this; he was not as eloquent as his younger brother, “I can’t, you could have me work in the fields; but if you asked me to sell products, I wouldn’t be good with words.”
Of course, Xu Ying also had a plan for her third uncle, but it would still take a few more years.
“Dad, we need to check the village’s dam carefully every day. This is a serious matter and can’t be taken lightly!” Xu Ying’s eyes revealed a hint of worry.
When she considered the time, it was fast approaching. In her previous life, the heavy rain had directly collapsed the dam, leading to the flooding of crops in the village, and farmers in the surrounding area had no harvest for the year.
Following the collapse of the dam, the lack of stored water, coupled with a drought, resulted in a complete loss of crops, and even access to water for drinking and cooking became difficult for everyone, not to mention washing clothes or taking baths.
Mr. Xu nodded. After the incident with Vice Captain Xu, he’d been particularly vigilant about the dam. Even though he arranged for patrol teams to inspect it, he still made a point to check it himself.
To address the disaster of flooding, it wasn’t just the dam in their village that needed to be inspected, but the dams in other villages as well.
Her dad was the captain and would naturally listen to her, which made things easier. However, people in the other villages wouldn’t heed her word. Now, she had to establish her position before the new year so she would have more clout to persuade everyone.
After dinner, Xu Ying couldn’t wait to get back to her room and start planning.
Taking advantage of the new year, if she could make a big profit for the food factory and the textile factory and secure more orders to be brought to Yushan Commune.
During the recruitment period, she could offer a favor to the team leaders from different villages, which would make convincing them to conduct strict inspections of the dams easier.
The New Year was a time of celebration, and Xu Ying’s eyes suddenly brightened.
Right, she instantly had a plan in mind.
The next morning, Xu Ying got up early, washed up, and pushed her bicycle, ready to go to work.
“Mom, I’m heading out.”
“Ah, take the eggs with you,” said Mrs. Xu, watching as her daughter’s figure gradually disappeared into the distance on the bicycle.
Xu Ying rode fast to the food factory and made a trip to the dining hall to find Old Li.
“Uncle Li, I’m going to discuss new product development with Mr. Sun, so breakfast is in your hands.”
As soon as she said that, Old Li was immediately overjoyed. Lately, he hadn’t been doing much, and he always felt uneasy, as if his presence was superfluous. Now, finally, he had something to do and was thrilled.
With a broad smile, he said, “Okay, okay, then you go ahead. This is a big issue concerning our factory’s performance; I can take care of things here.”
As soon as he spoke, several of the older ladies’ faces fell with disappointment.
No longer able to eat the meals prepared by Xiao Xu, the thought of Old Li’s cooking immediately killed their appetite.
Seeing everyone’s unhappy faces, Old Li became angry and said, “What’s the matter? Is my cooking not tasty or what?
Not tasty? You’ve been eating it for so many years, look at who you are and who Xiao Xu is. How could he possibly keep cooking for you forever?
He is the head of our factory’s R&D department. Do you know what the R&D department is? Whether our factory’s future performance will be good or not all depends on whether the things Xiao Xu develops are good.
Let me put it bluntly, everyone in our factory, including the factory director, has to depend on Xiao Xu’s meals.”
“Really?” the ladies gasped in surprise, their eyes wide. They hadn’t gone to school and had worked here almost their entire lives, never knowing that the people from the R&D department were so important.
“Really!” said Old Li disdainfully.
After finishing, he happily ran to the front of the stove and began busily preparing the food.
Xu Ying went to see Mr. Sun, pitying the factory workers who had to eat Old Li’s cooking, all of them looking dejected.
“Madam, why is Master Li cooking today? Where has Master Xiao Xu gone?”
“That’s right, we all enjoy eating the food made by Master Xiao Xu. Suddenly having to eat Master Li’s cooking is just hard to swallow.”
Old Li’s face turned as dark as ink, and he stealthily appeared behind the group, slapping the shoulder of the person who had been talking: “Is my cooking really that bad?”
The person jumped in fright, and upon seeing that it was Old Li, quickly stammered, “No, no, not at all!”
Old Li, hearing his response, snorted coldly: “Bad or not, you’ll have to eat it, hmph.”
The cafeteria was filled with groans of distress as everyone looked for Master Xiao Xu.
At this moment, Xu Ying was sitting leisurely in the director’s office, sipping tea: “Mr. Sun, the New Year is coming up, and everyone will certainly need to buy New Year’s goods.
We should launch a New Year’s special package, it will definitely be a success. If you agree, I’ll take Third Uncle Xu tomorrow and make a trip.”
The New Year’s special package Xu Ying mentioned consisted of fried meat, fried vegetables, and braised delicacies.
“Mr. Sun, what are you hesitating for? Which family doesn’t eat meat during the New Year? Our factory’s meat is so tasty that it’s a feather in our cap, so there’s no reason why we couldn’t sell it.”
Mr. Sun wanted to go along with it, but he was afraid they wouldn’t be able to sell all the products.
If they increased production now and couldn’t sell it, wouldn’t it all just go to waste?
Seeing his hesitation, Xu Ying decided to throw down the gauntlet: “Mr. Sun, I guarantee that once I go out this time, I’ll at least bring back an order of half a million yuan for our factory.”
Mr. Sun spat out his water in shock: “Xiao Xu, a young lady like you shouldn’t be telling tall tales.
What if you can’t deliver?”
Xu Ying looked at Mr. Sun with a sad face: “Mr. Sun, I didn’t expect you to distrust me like this. We’ve worked side by side so many times, I thought I was someone you could trust in your heart.

I can’t believe you would doubt me like this. Ah well, forget it then, I just wanted to pull in some orders for the factory, so the workers could earn a little extra for the New Year, sigh!”
