Chapter 79 The Disappearing Chen Meichun

Therefore, he might as well keep doing nothing, take advantage of people's illness and kill them, and no matter how hard he gets in the cold drink market, he will never quit. As long as he can make Chen Ming sick, he will not lose money!

Anyway, he doesn't know how much better than Chen Ming in terms of financial resources or strength. If he continues like this, even if he drags Chen Ming to death, it is not impossible!

Even if he can't delay it, it will prevent Chen Ming from recovering for half a year. By then, he will no longer believe that Chen Ming can really make a living in his wine market with the three melons and two dates in his hand?

Let’s see if he doesn’t suppress Chen Ming until he can’t hold his head up!

But after thinking about it, even if I don't quit, how can I continue to seize the market from Chen Ming, disgust Chen Ming, and prevent Chen Ming's family from becoming dominant?

The new flavor has failed. Is it possible that I really have to spend a lot of money on publicity and rent the sky-high-priced billboards from Monopoly?

Soon, it was the next day.

Early in the morning, the Shannan Cold Drink Factory was a bustling scene. Ever since yesterday's advertisement came out, Shannan Cold Drinks had completely become popular in Shannan County and its surrounding areas. In the morning, countless trucks waiting to haul goods were already waiting at the factory.

After arriving here, the workers who had had a day's rest were also very enthusiastic and worked enthusiastically in the completely repaired factory building.

Chen Ming stood in front of the office window, looking at the scene in the factory, with a face full of satisfaction. The first battle he fought with Shannan Winery, his performance could be described as beautiful!

Near noon, Li Hu came to the office. Before Chen Ming could ask, Li Hu said, "Mingzi, I don't know why, but Chen Meichun didn't come to work today. It's already noon. What's going on?"

"Have you asked for leave?" Chen Ming was a little confused.

"I asked, but I didn't ask for leave." Li Hu said immediately.

After hearing this, Chen Ming felt something was wrong.

Chen Meichun, like the workers living around her, had been laid off and her economic conditions could be described as poverty. Before coming to the cold drink factory, many people could not even open a pot in their poor families. It is precisely because of this that almost all of them

They were all obsessed with the cold drink factory. Chen Meichun devoted almost all her attention to the cold drink factory because she once saved her daughter. She was the first to come and the last to leave every day, but today, she didn't even see her until noon.

I saw a figure. Could it be that something happened at home?

"Have you asked other workers?" Chen Ming frowned and asked.

Hearing this, Li Hu shook his head: "I haven't asked yet, but a few days ago, I smelled a smell of Chinese medicine on Chen Meichun. I even asked, and she said that indeed, she has been feeling unwell recently and has been

Take Chinese medicine.”

Chen Ming nodded: "I understand."

After saying that, Chen Ming paused and then asked: "By the way, is it time to pay wages today? Have all the workers' wages been settled? How much has been paid in total? How much is left in the factory's accounts?

?”

"It's all been paid out. I just realized that Chen Meichun didn't come today when I just paid my salary. Look, this is a financial document. A total of 84,300 yuan has been paid. Except for Chen Meichun's, everyone has been paid."

Everything has been paid. Now after the wages are paid, plus the money earned by the factory in the past two days, there is only 16,000 left in the factory's accounts."

After Li Hu finished speaking, he handed the document in his hand to Chen Ming and asked: "Mingzi, you said these 16,000, how are we going to compete in the wine market?"

Li Hu still felt a little worried.

Chen Ming took the document and glanced at it briefly, and then sighed. It seemed unrealistic to use such a small amount of money to compete in the wine market, but if the soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth came, and he had let out his words, then of course there would be no

The principle of recovery.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and said to Li Hu: "Okay, Brother Hu, don't worry, I have a way. How much is Aunt Meichun's salary this month? Just give it to me."

"Oh, because I didn't send it out, it's all on me. Well, that's all." After Li Hu finished speaking, he took out a few RMB from his pocket.

One card is fifty yuan, four cards are ten yuan, and three cards are one yuan.

"Chen Meichun's monthly salary is 80 yuan. Because she is active in her work and works overtime very diligently, so according to the factory's rules and regulations, her monthly salary is 93 yuan, which is all here."

Li Hu saw Chen Ming taking the money, compared the documents, and after making sure there was nothing wrong, he spoke.

"Well, I understand. Brother Hu, please continue to work." Chen Ming put the money into his pocket.

"Okay." After Brother Hu said that, he turned and walked out of the office.

According to the entry form, Chen Ming quickly learned Chen Meichun’s address.

It's not too far from the cold drink factory. After passing through the employee residential area next to the cold drink factory, you can reach the tube building in less than a kilometer.

Thinking of this, Chen Ming walked through the employee residential area with ninety-three yuan in his pocket and walked towards the Tongzi Building.

While walking on this winding path, there were many grasshoppers dormant in the weeds on both sides of the path. After being frightened, they kept jumping around in front of Chen Ming.

Alongside the path, there is a half-meter-wide stinky water ditch, which is filled with black, stinking water. The flow rate is slow and it can't stop emitting a strong stench that is nauseating.

Within a few minutes, Chen Ming arrived downstairs at Old Tongzi.

It is said that it is a Tongzilou, but in fact it is dilapidated. Even if it is described as a slum, it is not an exaggeration.

"Mr. Chen, why are you here?" Chen Ming stood here and suddenly heard someone calling him.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw it was the security guard of the cold drink factory, Tie Zhu.

Tie Zhu's skin was dark, and even reflected some light under the scorching sun at noon. He grinned, and the white teeth on his dark face showed such a rumor.

He worked the night shift today, so he had nothing to do at noon, so he walked a short distance from the employee residential area and came here to catch some grasshoppers, planning to go back and fry them.

In this era of scarcity of food and clothing, the big and fat grasshoppers in this season are a delicacy in the eyes of many people.

Tiezhu's family works as workers in a cold drink factory. His father works as a porter and his mother works in the factory. He is responsible for guarding the gate. The family's income has gone from less than RMB 80 a month doing part-time jobs to nearly RMB 200 a month.

In their opinion, this is a great day.

Therefore, Chen Ming is the benefactor of their family. In Tie Zhu's eyes, how could a big boss like Chen Ming come to such a remote place?

This Tongzilou is far away from human habitation and can be described as a slum.

"Tie Zhu, do you know where Chen Meichun's home is?" Chen Ming asked.

Hearing this, Tiezhu immediately asked: "Does Chen Meichun's family live in this Tongzilou? I don't know. Apart from catching grasshoppers, I rarely come here on weekdays."

"Okay." Chen Ming responded.

"Mr. Chen, are you looking for Chen Meichun's family? Do you want my help?"

"No need, keep an eye on your grasshoppers. Several of them have escaped." Chen Ming waved his hand.

Only then did Tie Zhu react and quickly looked at the basket containing the grasshoppers in his hand. Sure enough, he had already run away most of it without paying attention.

Based on the information on the employment form, Chen Ming spent some time and found Chen Meichun's doorstep.

This is a wooden door that is many times more shabby than my own home. There are even several big holes under the wooden door. It is obviously the result of long-term gnawing by rats. I don’t know which year the Spring Festival couplets at the door were put up. They have already been

Dilapidated and crumbling.

There is also a small briquette stove placed next to the door, with half-burned briquettes placed in it, and a small pot next to it. It is obvious that this is the place for cooking.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ming sighed, stretched out his hand, and knocked on the door.

Soon, a familiar voice came from inside: "Who is it?"

Chen Ming immediately asked: "Is your mother Chen Meichun at home?"

The girl obviously didn't hear Chen Ming's voice. As soon as she heard this, she immediately trembled and said: "I...my mother is sick, and our family...has no money to pay back..."

Chen Ming only felt helpless: "I'm not here to collect debts. I'm Chen Ming, the owner of the cold drink factory. I'm here to pay your mother's salary. We've met before."

"Mr. Chen?" After hearing Chen Ming's words, the girl didn't hesitate at all and immediately opened the door. When she saw it was Chen Ming, her face was filled with joy.

She turned her head and ran towards the house, shouting in surprise as she ran: "Mom, Mr. Chen has sent you your salary!"

Chen Ming looked at the girl's back and walked into the house. Although it was shabby and shabby, it was cleaned spotlessly.

The entire space is only thirty square meters, and it is obviously separated from a house. In the small living room, there is only a small, worn-out square table and two round stools. In the room inside, there is only a narrow

A wooden bed, but no other furniture.

"Cough cough cough..."

There was a violent cough from the direction of the bed. When Chen Ming turned his head, he saw the girl sitting by the bed and said to the person on the bed: "Mom, did you hear that? Mr. Chen is here."

"Who? Who is here? It must not be Mr. Chen. We must not let Mr. Chen know... know that I am sick..."

Chen Meichun struggled to sit up from the bed, but unfortunately her sick body was too weak. If she wanted to sit up completely, she could only use her two hands to support her.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ming was very moved.

Over the past month or so, Chen Ming has really had the deepest impression of this person in the cold drink factory. Otherwise, he would not have decided so quickly to train Chen Meichun as the future management team of the cold drink factory. He is the first person every day.

She is the last one to leave. As long as there is a place for overtime work, she will definitely be there.

At this time, Chen Meichun's face was pale, and her lips had no color at all.

When she saw that it was really Chen Ming who was here, her face turned pale with shock: "Chen...Mr. Chen, it's really you? You...why are you here?"

As she spoke, she struggled to get out of bed.

Chen Ming immediately took a step forward, blocked her movement, and said, "You are so sick, why don't you tell Brother Hu?"

When Chen Meichun heard this, she looked panicked and didn't say a word for a long time.
