The next day, Shao Zhigang told Zhang Ke that Sheng Qing agreed with his conditions and wanted to turn Yuanxiang's venue into a large disco. He will leave the bar to his staff, which is an explanation. He can pay a deposit of one million yuan first, but he hopes to slow down the rent. After all, the original simple Casino has been changed into a large disco, and the investment in interior decoration is not a small amount. He is a little short of money.

Zhang Ke is not afraid of anyone who can rely on his account in Haizhou. Even if he dares to borrow money from the Chengnan district government, there is no problem that the rent there should be paid on a monthly basis.

Sheng Qing is also a person who has a burden. He will remember to help him at the critical moment.

Zhang Ke asked Shao Zhigang to do it.

Xie Wanqing took over Jinhu just in time for the winter vacation. When Ding Huai arrived in Haizhou again, Zhang Ke, Liu Minghui and Ding Huai went to Hong Kong before the Spring Festival to confirm that the manufacturer contacted by Jiang Wei did have mature production technology of DVD players. I rushed back to Haizhou two days before the Spring Festival.

Ding Huai went directly back to his hometown in Anhui for the Spring Festival. After the Spring Festival, he came to Haizhou with a group of technicians from the former Wanyan company.

The sales return of the paper mill had reached 8 million before the Spring Festival, but it was no longer a problem to make up 18 million before the expiry of the letter of credit, plus the advance payment of 3 million from Shanghai Thai Trade and the 5 million borrowed by Chengnan district government. Moreover, Jinhu is no longer a shell company. The two or three million funds in the account are not counted. The equity of Haitai trade and the property in Jinhua building, the provincial capital, can get bank mortgage loans.

Zhang Ke hurried back to the company. All the employees in the office were cleaning up and preparing for the annual leave. There would be normal shifts for the Spring Festival in the paper mill. Zhang Ke hurried to see Zhou Fu send the list of Spring Festival shifts of the managers of the paper mill.

"The workers in the factory have been working hard these days," Zhou Fu said to Zhang Ke. "Does the paper mill mean something extra to boost morale?"

"You didn't mention it to Mr. Xie?" Zhang Ke asked Zhou Fu strangely. "What day is it now? You don't think of mentioning it until the first day of the first month the day after tomorrow?"

"President Xie agreed to raise the wages of workers after the Spring Festival. It's no good talking about it again. I'll wait for you to come back and discuss it with you. If you think it's OK, I'll talk to President Xie."

Although it is said that the Jinhu Lake is under the management of Xie Wanqing, Zhou Fu is used to finding Zhang Ke first to make a decision.

Zhang Ke smiled and said, "why does factory director Zhou learn to say good things now and try to deceive me with a piece of sugar? Well, you go and discuss with sister Jiang. If the finance allows, you can put forward a plan. The capitalists should also pay attention to giving sugar to the workers. I'll go in and tell President Xie about it."

The office in the southwest corner still belongs to Zhang Ke, and no matter how much time Zhang Ke will come to the company in the future. Xie Wanqing and Xu Si share an office, which is also in line with Xu Si's identity as an assistant to Xie Wanqing. Zhang Ke hopes Xu Si can share an office with him. At that time, he will regret using translucent frosted glass.

Across the frosted glass, you can see Zhitong's petite figure beating in the office. Zhang Ke pushes the door open, puts the gift bag by the door, quietly walks behind Zhitong, fiercely holds her up, and Zhitong giggles and struggles in his arms.

Zhang Ke smiled and asked Wanqing, "sister Wanqing, when will you go back to the provincial capital?"

"I'll have new year's Eve dinner with you first. I'll get up early and go back to the provincial capital tomorrow."

Xu Si said, "it's not because I have to wait for you. You don't want to go back to Haizhou for the Spring Festival?"

"In order to pick out gifts for you, I spent a lot of thought, otherwise I would have come back." Zhang Ke nodded towards the handbag by the door and sat on the sofa with Zhitong in his arms. Zhitong is no different from a normal child now, except that he refuses to speak. Zhang Ke told Wanjing what Zhou Fu said outside: "we should build a good model of Xinguang factory. Besides, the workers of Xinguang factory were a little miserable in the first half of the year. Financially, we can add some benefits. I asked Zhou Fu and Jiang Wei to take out the plan immediately."

"You think it's OK. I thought I'd have an annual holiday from today. I don't want to use my brain anymore." Xie Wanqing said lazily.

Zhi Tong watched Xu Si open his handbag and struggled down from Zhang Ke's knee to see the gift.

Zhou Fu sympathized with the workers' situation. He had already drawn up a plan in his hand. There was only one page. Zhang Ke walked into Xie Wanqing's office for less than 20 minutes. He turned around and took the page and came in with Jiang Wei.

Xie Wanqing took the page, glanced at it and handed it to Zhang Ke: "just feel good."

Zhang Ke then took a look, smacked his mouth and said, "the paper mill is not officially profitable yet, so there is no year-end bonus, so the name should be changed to comfort labor money." he took his finger and flicked the page of paper, making a crisp sound, "This plan is too stingy. Raise the standard. The Consolation Fund for cadres is set at 1000, that for regular employees is set at 800, and that for temporary workers is set at 600. Factory director Zhou goes up to change the plan. Sister Jiang quickly contacts the bank. Can you take out the money at this time? Sister Wanqing calls district director Song. Can the district send someone to the factory to distribute the Consolation Fund to the employees at this time?"

Zhou Fu hesitated to look at Xie Wanqing. Xie Wanqing smiled and said, "is factory director Zhou afraid that the district won't agree?"

"Song Peiming dares not to agree!" Zhou Fu said excitedly. He grabbed the page from Zhang Ke's hand and flew out of the office. He was just in time to catch up with an employee passing through the door with a bucket for cleaning the glass. The two collided. Zhou Fu poured water on his cheap suit. Zhou Fu hurriedly said it didn't matter, so he went into his office to change the plan.

Jiang Wei contacted the bank and asked two employees to accompany her to the bank to withdraw money.

Zhang Ke looked at the sewage splashed on Zhou Fu, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "old Zhou is such an adult. He is more careless than me. It's really worrying!"

Xu Si smiled and said, "Zhou Chang didn't expect you to be so generous. Go out quickly so as not to give you time to repent."

"It's fair to earn a million, and it's OK to earn 1.1 million. If you only earn 900000, you will win more opportunities to make money," Zhang Ke shook his head and smiled. He picked out a gift box from his handbag, opened it and said: "This necklace is intended for sister Xu Wei. It's 800 Hong Kong dollars. I don't know if I can make sister Xu Wei laugh. 800 yuan is a very insignificant amount for us. It's different for ordinary workers. We can have a good year at least. We just give up small profits, but we hope they will work hard in the coming year."

Xu Si joked, "if you don't say your last word, no one will treat you as kind."

Xie Wanqing looked over and said, "I'm looking forward to what gifts I can have with Zhitong?"

"I carefully and carefully selected this agate bracelet. I think it is suitable for sister Wanqing."

Zhang Ke reached out to pick out the gift box, but Xu Si ruthlessly exposed it: "did you hurry to find a jewelry store to buy this pile of things in the last half of the day? Fortunately, you mean to choose carefully?"

Zhang Ke smiled and said, "it took some thought. Won't you refuse?"

"No, it's not against yourself?" Xu Si said with a smile, poured the gift on Xie Wanqing's desk, took Wanqing and Zhitong together and opened it. Sure enough, they were all small ornaments such as brooches, hairpins and hands bought from the same store. Fortunately, Zhang Ke had a thick face. In the face of the ridicule of Xu Si and Wanqing, he still sat there without changing his face, and other people would have slipped away.

Xie Wanqing hung up song Peiming and asked him if he had time to go to the paper mill to give comfort to the employees. How could song Peiming not have time to show his face? He rushed to the company in about half an hour.

This was the first time Zhang Ke went to the new factory after it was officially put into operation. He resumed his duties as a young man, bowed his head and followed Xie Wanqing, song Peiming and others to visit the new factory.

In order to make the employees have a good year, the January salary is paid in advance, and the interest on the deposit is settled at the bank loan interest rate. With this consolation fund, most regular employees can receive 2000 yuan for the new year, and they can have a fat year at the end of 1994. Zhang Ke asked Zhou Fu to arrange Xu Si's mother to work as a temporary worker in the warehouse of the new factory. Her income is lower than that of regular employees, but she is also in Haizhou It's a pretty good job. There's 600 yuan of consolation money at the end of the year, which is probably something she doesn't dare to think of, but it just reduces the pressure in her heart.

In the 1990s, ordinary families were burdened with more than 200000 foreign debts. The pressure was unimaginable more than a decade later. Xu Si's family wanted to save every penny to pay off their debts.

Xu Si only dares to tell his family that his monthly salary is only 2000 yuan and that he takes 1500 yuan to pay off his debts to his family every month.

Ding Xiangshan case has been sentenced in the first instance. Haizhou has not released any news, as if it was a very insignificant thing, which has disappeared from the vision of ordinary citizens forever.

When they came to the warehouse, they met Xu Si's mother. Zhang Ke didn't accompany song Peiming. They continued to walk forward. Standing in the warehouse, they chatted with Xu Si's mother and talked about Chen feirong's mother Liu Fen. In the few days Zhang Ke went to Hong Kong, Liu Fen had completely recovered, was able to walk down the ground and rushed out of the hospital years ago.

When seeing a doctor and being hospitalized, relatives in the neighborhood will visit the hospital. When they get out of the hospital, even if they are poor, they will have a banquet to thank them. Chen Qi's family will open a tavern, which will not cost too much. It will be set on the third day of the new year. Zhang Ke is the most important person to thank in their family. It is not enough to face Zhang Ke's parents or song Peiming. They don't know what Zhang Ke's parents do. Tosh wants to ask Zhang Ke will go to dinner then.

Xu Si didn't have time to talk about it. Zhang Ke didn't know whether he was free on the third day of junior high school. He just perfunctorized Xu Si's mother. It depends on the situation when she said it. Looking at Xu Si coming in from the outside, he asked her, "all the visits are over!"

"Song Peiming and President Xie are talking to the cadres in the factory in the office. When they turn around, they don't see you. I'll come to you." Xu Si said to her mother, "I'll go with Zhang Ke first. My colleagues in the company will have new year's Eve dinner in advance in the evening. I won't go home for dinner."

Zhang Ke thought of one thing and said to Xu Si's mother, "Chen feirong's mother is also an employee of the paper mill. Don't say anything else for the time being. You can go to the finance office to help her get the comfort money back. When I meet factory director Zhou, I will help her."

"That's great, otherwise I don't know how to tell Fei Rong's mother about it."

Zhang Ke smiled. What was very simple for him meant something different to others. After the winter vacation, he didn't see Chen feirong again. Even in school, he rarely saw Chen feirong. Chen feirong seldom went out of the classroom. It's not that Chen feirong was deliberately avoiding (this may also be a factor) In key middle schools, teachers want students to devote themselves to learning every minute. Students usually have this self-consciousness. Boys can also gather in the aisle to chat and fart, and girls only occasionally go out of the classroom. This phenomenon is more serious in senior three. Many girls don't look fat, but their waist and legs are full of meat. Zhang Ke often doesn't go to and from school according to the school time, even occasionally When I met Chen feirong, I was mostly with Tang Jing, so I didn't have much intersection with Chen feirong. I haven't seen Chen feirong since the winter vacation.

Zhang Ke and Xu Si went out of the warehouse. The administrative building of the new factory is next to the east gate. To the north of the administrative building is the comprehensive building. There is a staff canteen and training classroom. When they entered the administrative building, they heard applause coming from the second floor. Following the applause, they went to the conference room and pushed open the door. They saw song Peiming surrounded with complacency and bowing. They must have spoken.

Zhang Ke whispered to Xu Si, "it's really time to come. Don't listen to his nonsense." Xu Si smiled and ignored him.

There were other things in Song Peiming district. The representative sent comfort money to the staff of the administrative building, so he hurried away. Xie Wanqing, accompanied by Zhou Fu and Jiang Wei, distributed comfort and labor benefits to various departments. Zhang Ke and Xu Si lead Zhi Tong to speak in Zhou Fu's factory director's room.

Zhang Ke waited for a while and wanted to distribute the consolation money of more than 200 people in the whole plant one by one. It won't be completed in a moment and a half. He just started in Haizhou today and continued to hang out outside at night. I don't know how much to complain about. When Wanqing returned to the administrative building for a rest, he said to her, "I'll take Zhitong home today and let her sleep with me at night. Come and pick her up tomorrow."
