night.
Cao Hanzhi came to Li Wenqin's room, looked at Li Wenqin sitting on the bed, and said, "Are you not asleep yet?"
"If I could sleep, would I still be like this?"
Cao Hanzhi said: "I knew you were like this, let's talk."
"You said Xiaoqiang doesn't know who he is with him. What's wrong now? He's so old that he doesn't even listen to me."
Cao Hanzhi said, "I said you don't get angry. You said that during the period when we arrived in the capital, many things happened to us, and there were many girls around Xiaoqiang one after another. Maybe Xiao Liu and Xiao Xu are the ones who came with Xiaoqiang."
"Xiaoqiang is no longer a child. He has his own life. He can't always listen to our opinions, and our opinions may not be correct. Besides, Xiaoqiang himself has a sense of responsibility. He said that he is an ordinary friend with Xiao Xu, and the married person is Xiao Liu, so we should not interfere too much."
Cao Hanzhi said with deep feelings: "After the New Year, Xiaoqiang will be 36, and he is no longer a child. If you want me to tell me, let him decide his own affairs. Otherwise, we will force Xiaoqiang and Xiao Xu to draw a clear line. If it doesn't work well, if this child is rebellious, will we be more worried then?"
"What you said is not unreasonable, but Xiao Liu doesn't care now, can he care again?"
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. No matter how much we care, it is useless. If you talk more, which girl hasn't been here in this day? Just say Xiao Liu, such a good girl and so young, has had several immature love experiences. Do you think you can live your life by just having a partner like in the past?"
"But Xiaoqiang, who is so stubborn, will not be stabbed by someone at that time?"
Cao Hanzhi said: "It's not as serious as you said. Don't you know what our son looks like? You won't do such a ridiculous thing."
"I hope so!"
Gao Jianling originally hoped that Zhao Shucheng's parents could stop Zhao Shucheng and Xu Ruoyun from continuing to contact. But he never expected that since he went to find Li Wenqin and Cao Hanzhi that day, Zhao Shucheng and Xu Ruoyun seemed to have nothing happened. Not only were they not alienated, but they had more contact than before. Every day, Zhao Shucheng would pick up Xu Ruoyun from get off work and often go on dates to have dinner, which was more like a couple than before.
He didn't think about going to find Wu Xiaoliu, hoping that Wu Xiaoliu could go to Xu Ruoyun's company to have a fight after knowing Xu Ruoyun's existence. But Wu Xiaoliu's reaction was very dull, and he even said directly that she knew Xu Ruoyun's existence and didn't mind the relationship like this now.
This was beyond Gao Jianling's expectation. If Xu Ruoyun could do this, or his ex-wife could do this, why would he break up with Xu Ruoyun or even get into divorce from his ex-wife? As he is now full of trouble, Zhao Shucheng will be all cheaper.
He even thought of sending a letter to Xu Ruoyun's company to report Xu Ruoyun's lifestyle problems, but he quickly gave up this idea. After all, he did not want to be in trouble with Xu Ruoyun. If he really did this, Xu Ruoyun would not compromise and not say anything at that time, and it would even lead Xu Ruoyun's father to deal with him personally.
Seeing Gao Jianling with no hope at all, he finally boarded the train back to the Magic City. However, when he left, his inner unwillingness and resentment could not be eliminated.
After knowing that Gao Jianling had left, the matter of Zhao Shucheng and Xu Ruoyun pretending to be a couple came to an end. In order to appease Wu Xiaoliu, Zhao Shucheng and Xu Ruoyun had less contact, from meeting each other every day to meeting twice a week now. More time is spent with Wu Xiaoliu, and of course his own work.
However, when Zhao Shucheng came to work in the company that day, Chen Zhiming called Zhao Shucheng to the office and said:
"Xiaoqiang, I'm looking for you today, I'm telling you something."
"Oh, what's the matter, boss?"
Chen Zhiming said: "It's like this. Recently, our company's sales in Beijing have declined very sharply. I am planning to move the company to a second-tier city, which will also help reduce the company's operating costs. You are my junior brother and I trust the most. I think, I will send you to Baoding first, and then move the entire company over after it stabilizes."
Zhao Shucheng looked at Chen Zhiming and said, "Boss, do you really think clearly about moving to a second-tier city? You must know that it is easy to go out, but it is not that simple to come back."
"I have thought about it. Although the company can still maintain it now, the operating costs in Beijing are too high, and our company is really hard to afford. I know that this matter is very sudden to you, but this is really impossible. If I can stay in Beijing, I don't want to move to a second-tier city."
Zhao Shucheng nodded and said, "I understand, but if the company moves away, I may not be able to continue fighting side by side with you."
In fact, Zhao Shucheng had long since wanted to stay in this company. Although his monthly salary of 10,000 yuan was considered good, Chen Zhiming used Cao Xiaoqiang as a livestock.
Moreover, Zhao Shucheng knew very clearly that Chen Zhiming chose to avoid competition like this. Although it seemed that the company could survive, when second-tier cities faced competition from some big brands again in the future, what could he do? He would continue to relocate to other third-tier cities, and even ended up going bankrupt.
The competition among food companies is getting fiercer, and Wawa Food is just an inconspicuous small company. It seems to be developing the capital market, creating the North African market and the Arab market, but those orders are just one-time transactions and have not really opened up the local market. If Chen Zhiming could really develop the local market, Wawa Food would not be a small company like this now. It has long been a salary of over 100 million yuan, and would not have fled from the capital in a mess.
What's more, although Zhao Shucheng likes to eat donkey meat, he doesn't want to eat it every day, and he doesn't want to leave the capital like this and start working hard again.
Although Zhao Shucheng may not be able to find any better jobs in a short time after leaving Wawa Food, as long as Zhao Shucheng can look a little bit more elegant, his previous connections can be used.
Chen Zhiming was somewhat surprised by Zhao Shucheng's choice and asked: "Xiaoqiang, you have to think clearly. It is difficult for people of your age to find a job, not to mention that you still have a mortgage on your side, so where can you find such a good job now?"
"If you are worried about your house, there is no need to. Your house has appreciated. Now that you have sold the house, you can change to a larger one in Baoding. Moreover, the cost of living there is lower, and you can have a better quality of life."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Senior Brother, I know all the things you said. But I am ready to get married, and I can't leave my family and business to go to another place. Wouldn't it be that the two places are separated? You don't want me to be like this, right?"
When Chen Zhiming heard that Zhao Shucheng had made up his mind to leave, he was a little reluctant. You should know that Cao Xiaoqiang has been at the company for so many years and has always been down-to-earth and willing to work hard and loyal, and has made great contributions to the company. He is also his most capable general and the company's firefighter.
"Xiaoqiang, you have to think clearly. This change is a good opportunity for you. I am going to promote you to vice president. You are thirty-five. There are not many opportunities like this, you have to seize it."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Boss, you must understand my difficulties. I am thirty-five. If I don't get married, this person will doubt that I have something wrong with me. Actually, I can't bear to leave. After all, we have been working together for so many years, and you have been taking care of me. I have always been grateful. But the matter of getting married and having children is not waiting for anyone. My parents are now moving to the capital to live with me. When they are old, I should stay by my side to do my best to be filial. Boss, you should also understand and understand my difficulties."
In fact, based on conscience, Chen Zhiming is not very good to Cao Xiaoqiang, but it is definitely not bad. At least he is much more than Shi Xiaomeng's fellow villager Hu Rongqiang in "Yanjing Love Story". Even if he treats Cao Xiaoqiang as a labor force, at least he has never been treated unfairly. Of course, he has tried every means to deduct the bonus, but at least he has given a reasonable excuse, and has not detained the commission as unscrupulously as Hu Rongqiang.
"Okay, since you have made up your mind, I can't stop you. But I also told you that I came to you today to inform you that this is the overall development strategy of the company. If you don't obey, you can only leave the company." Chen Zhiming said.
"It's okay, boss, I understand. After all, if you have a good relationship with us, it will be unfair to others. I haven't had a good rest for so many years. I've taken advantage of this period of time to have a good rest and spend more time with my girlfriend."
Zhao Shucheng also understood Chen Zhiming's choice. After all, the relocation matter was decided. If Zhao Shucheng did not go, there would be no punishment and others would follow suit, and the relocation work would stagnate. This is commonly known as killing a chicken to warn the monkey, but Zhao Shucheng did not expect that one day he would become the chicken that was killed.
Zhao Shucheng did not delay, and went straight out of Chen Zhiming's office and went through the resignation procedures. Because he voluntarily resigned, there was naturally no compensation or severance. He just settled the monthly salary and some reimbursement accounts, so he only got more than 10,000 yuan in total.
Other colleagues were surprised to hear that Zhao Shucheng was about to leave the company. After all, Zhao Shucheng was already considered a veteran in this company. In addition to the factory workers, there were some workers with a longer working experience than Zhao Shucheng. It can be said that those who conquer the world with Chen Zhiming had already left.
Besides, Zhao Shucheng's departure was a bit too sudden, and he didn't reveal any words beforehand, which was very surprising.
Zhao Shucheng didn't say much about this, but simply packed up his own things, handed over the work, and then went home directly.
When Wu Xiaoliu saw Zhao Shucheng coming home so early, he asked in surprise: "Uncle, why did you come back so early today? Don't you have to go to work?"
Zhao Shucheng said: "Xiao Liu, from today on, your uncle is a jobless vagrant. Do you think the uncle is useless?"
Wu Xiaoliu was a little surprised when he heard this and asked, "Uncle, why did you resign?"
"Of course I'm reluctant to leave you. Our company is about to move to Baoding. Boss Chen asked me to go to the front station and promote me to be the vice president, but this means we have to separate from the two places, so I have to resign."
Wu Xiaoliu didn't know whether he should be happy or lost. After all, Zhao Shucheng resigned because of him, which means he really loved him. But on the other hand, if Zhao Shucheng resigned, wouldn't he have no income?
Maybe Wu Xiaoliu didn't care much about whether he was rich or not, and maybe he would choose to quit his job and go home to be a housewife. But since living with Zhao Shucheng, she has gradually begun to learn to calculate family expenses and knows that making money is not easy and spending money easily.
She hasn't taken the initiative to ask her parents for money for a long time. Even if the money her parents sent, she kept it in a bank card and only lived with her own salary and Zhao Shucheng's money.
Now that Zhao Shucheng's salary is suddenly reduced, their living expenses are a lot less, and their living standards will definitely decline in the future.
Of course, she would not feel that Zhao Shucheng could not give her the life she wanted because she had no income, and then broke up with Zhao Shucheng because she knew very well that even if Zhao Shucheng had no salary, she would definitely not be poor and had no income.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! She was with Zhao Shucheng during this period and was also watching Zhao Shucheng's Bitcoin investment make money. From the exchange of one to three hundred at the beginning to the price of one to two now. The more than 2,000 yuan that Zhao Shucheng invested at the beginning is now worth 300,000 yuan. Just taking out all this money is enough for them to live a year.
Besides, she heard from Zhao Shucheng that this is not the final peak, and she will go to higher prices in the future and make more profits.
"Uncle, what are you going to do next? Find a new job?"
Zhao Shucheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I haven't thought about it. I've been working in this industry for so many years and I'm really tired. I want to take a break for a while. In addition, I don't want to continue to work related to food. I'm going to see if there are any other suitable jobs to do first. After the investment income comes, I'm going to invest and trade stocks by myself."
Wu Xiaoliu hesitated and said, "Uncle, is it very risky to trade stocks?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "That's very simple for others. Why, don't you believe in my abilities and vision?"
"Of course I believe in the uncle, but stock trading is unstable after all, so it's better to find a job?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you suffer with me."
"I don't think being with the uncle is hard work, I just think that it's better not to work too hard." Wu Xiaoliu said with a sweet smile.
When it was late at night, Zhao Shucheng looked at Wu Xiaoliu who was sleeping sweetly beside him, thinking about his future affairs.
To be honest, he didn't expect to leave Wawa Food so early. He originally thought that he would resign from the company after he got his own Bitcoin cashed out. But now he resigned has disrupted Zhao Shucheng's steps and he has to think about what he will do in the future.
As for what Zhao Shucheng and Wu Xiaoliu said before, Zhao Shucheng didn't think it was that simple. Maybe it was a simple thing for young people, but for middle-aged people like Zhao Shucheng, it was not that simple.
Unless it is invited by a headhunting company, it is the most embarrassing for middle-aged people like Zhao Shucheng who are thirty-five years old to find a job. On the one hand, most companies require recruitment requirements under thirty-five, which blocks Zhao Shucheng's job hunting. In addition, if Zhao Shucheng really applies for some positions, he also needs to start from the company's basic positions, that is, compete with those newly graduated college students, which is difficult to be competitive, not to mention that the salary given by the company is lower than his expectations. A salary of 3,000 or 4,000 is not small for newly graduated college students, but for people like Zhao Shucheng who have mortgages or families, it is not attractive at all.
Faced with such a situation, job hunting is actually not the first choice for middle-aged people. On the contrary, starting a business may be the best way out. However, entrepreneurship is not something that everyone can do. Perhaps only a reborn person like Zhao Shucheng has the most advantage.
Zhao Shucheng thought about it over and over again, thinking that if he wanted to make money, he would not spend money, and perhaps he would have to make his own house. That was to make a second mortgage, use this money to trade stocks, and complete his first fund accumulation.
Just like Chen Zhiming said, Zhao Shucheng's house has appreciated a lot, from the original 8,000 per square meter to more than 20,000 yuan now, and the house is more than 150 square meters. Even if the mortgage loan is more than 900,000 yuan, there is still a balance of more than 2 million yuan, which is enough to borrow more than 1 million yuan.
Of course, there is no way to get a second mortgage loan. If possible, Zhao Shucheng still hopes to borrow money to invest instead of mortgage the house.
The candidate for this loan can be Xu Ruoyun or Wu Xiaoliu. In fact, Wu Xiaoliu doesn’t have a car and doesn’t have any famous brands. In fact, she is a little rich woman, and she can still take out more than one million in savings.
Zhao Shucheng was embarrassed to speak to Wu Xiaoliu, otherwise it would be a bit like a soft-hearted person, which would make Wu Xiaoliu's parents think that Zhao Shucheng was not that reliable.
With the chaotic thoughts in his mind, Zhao Shucheng slowly fell asleep. Wu Xiaoliu seemed to notice something, reached out to hug Zhao Shucheng, changed his position, and fell asleep peacefully.
The next day.
Xu Ruoyun was surprised to receive a call from Zhao Shucheng to meet her. After all, since Gao Jianling left, Zhao Shucheng has offered to meet her for a few times. In order to avoid Wu Xiaoliu being too worried, he didn't even have much dinner together. Moreover, it is working hours on weekdays, and Zhao Shucheng should be busy with work. How could he think of making an appointment with her?
When Xu Ruoyun came to the restaurant and saw Zhao Shucheng, she asked, "Xiaoqiang, don't you have to go to work today?"
Zhao Shucheng said: 'I have resigned from the company.'
Xu Ruoyun frowned and said, "Why, is Gao Jianling going to trouble you? That's why..."
"No, it has nothing to do with him, it is my own choice. Our company is preparing to move to Baoding, and I can't leave everything here, so I can only resign from the company."
Xu Ruoyun nodded and said, "Then do you want me to help you find a job? No problem, even if you go to our company, I can arrange an interview for you, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Forget it, you are using your power for personal gain. I don't want you to be discussed in the company because of my affairs. Besides, we are in a superior and subordinate relationship, so it will be a bit embarrassing to get along. If you meet, will you say hello to me, or will we pretend not to know each other?"
"It doesn't matter. We care what those people say."
"That's not what Ruoyun. Even if you and I don't mind what others say, your company recruits all workplace elites, even foreign returnees, and people from the investment industry. My major is in food and has nothing to do with you. If you use your rights to allow me to be admitted, I feel uncomfortable."
Xu Ruoyun felt a little regretful when she heard Zhao Shucheng's refusal. She also wanted to take the opportunity to let Zhao Shucheng go to the company so that she could see Zhao Shucheng every day, and she would never have to see him like now, just once a week, and even avoid others seeing him.
"Then are you looking for me?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Ruoyun, we are friends, so I don't hide anything. I will only tell you. People of my age cannot find a good job when looking for a job. Unless the job is very appropriate, it is difficult for someone to ask me for a job. But as an ordinary employee, the salary is not enough for me to pay back my loan. I have to compete with those young college students, which makes me feel embarrassed."
As he said that, Zhao Shucheng looked at Xu Ruoyun and said, "I am going to start my own business, but I encountered some problems with funds. Originally, I wanted to use the second mortgage of the house and invest with this money. But this is a bit risky after all, so I thought that you are the richest among the people I know, so I hope to borrow one million from you by mortgaged with the property certificate. It lasts for half a year, and the interest is 20%. If you cannot repay the loan when it is due, the house belongs to you."
"I have bought this house for less than ten years. It was 1.5 million at the beginning, but now it has appreciated a little, worth about three million, and there are fifteen years of loans, and repayment of about six thousand a month. So there is no problem with a value of one million."
Xu Ruoyun said, "Xiaoqiang, if you are short of money, I will lend it to you, and you don't need a real estate certificate to mortgage it."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "This is different. This is my loan from you. If there is no mortgage, then I might as well go to the bank to take out a loan directly. If you put the property certificate here, don't worry, I can't worry too."
"That's it, okay, I agree." Xu Ruoyun had no intention of asking for Zhao Shucheng's real estate certificate at all. But seeing Zhao Shucheng so determined, she agreed. Her idea was that if Zhao Shucheng's investment failed, she would not force Zhao Shucheng to pay back the money, and she could even return the house to Zhao Shucheng.
