Chapter 688: Retired soldiers

Dark Mode

After Lin Xiu came here, she started working the next day.

Her major was also very solid. She knew a lot. However, she wasn't familiar with the business yet. Once she is familiar with it, there will be basically no major problems.

This year there were fewer matters. Eldest got married. Second was sent out on business trip. The family business had stabilized. Lin Qing He's translation studio had started taking orders, but it was not difficult.

Several batches of new tea arrived. All were of good quality.

There were also two army dogs in the warehouse. Like the family dogs, they were all retired. Still, their combat effectiveness was comparable to that of one or two adult men. They weren't tied. Most people didn't dare to go close to them.

Of course they were specially trained. The two army dogs were very disciplined. Zhou Qing Bai would personally send them two meals a day.

He also liked dogs. There used to be a dog called Fei Ying in the family, but he was gone when he got older.

Not only did the warehouse stored new tea, but also the inventory of the dry good shops. Although there were houses in the neighborhood, the public security was still relatively so-so.

Of course, it was the capital after all. After several severe crackdowns, it was really much better than outside.

However, there were so many things here. Zhou Qing Bai would come to patrol every day. What's more, during one of his check, he found that one of the army dogs was injured in the leg!

This made Zhou Qing Bai's face black. He knew what was going on without saying.

He took the dog and find a specialized veterinarian to bandage it up. Then he left it at home. He sent the other two army dogs at home over there.

Zhou Qing Bai didn't think this was enough. So he called the camp where Eldest was.

In recent years, there was a cut down in army labor. The number was more than one million people. It was to the subsequent wave of layoffs.

Therefore, it was very easy for Zhou Qing Bai to recruit a few veterans who can fight.

Zhou Kai wasn't on a mission. So he came over to answer the phone when he received the notification. He thought it was something serious. After all, his family usually waited for the couple to call back by themselves. They rarely called to the camp to look for them.

Hearing this, he immediately said: "It's not a problem. Leave it to me. But five? Do you need that many?"

"I need five." Zhou Qing Bai stated.

The five retired soldiers were all young men. When the young men came back to the capital, Third drove over in a truck to pick them up.

He held up a sign as he waited for a long time. If not, he couldn't pick them up. They didn't know each other. Still, they were all soldiers that had once worked under Zhou Kai.

The five retired soldiers arrived. Zhou Qing bai could go home and hug his wife to sleep.

Naturally, it was impossible for five people to guard the warehouse here every day. Zhou Qing Bai assigned them jobs. Four of them moved and delivered the goods. One of them was enthusiastic and talkative. He went over to the dry good shop and learned to sell dry goods with Xu Sheng Qiang.

After all, it was a little to have Xu Sheng Qiang alone in the dry good shop once Li Ai Guo and Zhou San Ni's family leave.

As for the wage level, it wasn't low.

There was food subsidy included. It nearly impossible for them to find such jobs outside.

They had all went back home and then wandered outside. They were eating the food stored at home for almost a month.

If they kept living there, the sisters-in-law at home would roll their eyes.

Fortunately, they got such a job now.

In August, Li Ai Guo and Zhou San Ni moved out with their Pang Pang.

They moved to their own shop to live and planned to run a business.

Lin Qing He was supportive and provided goods to the two of them. The rest was up to their own management.

The location of the two's shop was very good. There was a small market not far away. Generally, the business won't be too bad if such a shop was opened there.

As for her own dry good shop, she will leave it to Xu Sheng Qiang and this young soldier named Dong Zhuo.

Xu Sheng Qiang and Dong Zhuo both ate and lived in the dry good shop. Not with the other four soldiers.

The other four soldiers were responsible for delivering goods and moving goods. They have to live in the warehouse at night. There was a house next to the warehouse. Zhou Qing Bai bought it earlier. They can go over there to live. If there was any mishap, they could hear the dogs as soon as they barked.

Probably because of seeing their arrival, the original restlessness in the dark had been settled down.

Lin Qing He wasn't stingy either. Sometimes she got the kitchen to add more dishes and then ask Third to pack it up and bring it over. When they got a rare time with no work, Lin Qing He called them to come and have a meal at home.

This made the few lads excited. They directly praised their battalion leader's mom was young and beautiful.

Lin Qing He found these lads very pleasing. At her age, she have the feelings of an old mother.

So, from that day on, she would occasionally get Third to add more dishes when he send them food. They opened their own stove.

Because there were so many people, it was a lot cheaper to open the stove by themselves. They were naturally happy if get sent one or two delicious solid dishes.

Lin Qing He originally wanted to buy a washing machine for them, but Zhou Qing Bai said: "They have to wash their own clothes in the camp. So do you need to buy them a washing machine?"

This old man was getting a bit jealous. He felt that his wife was a little bit flower-loving. This was the pattern of liking young men.

Lin Qing He did liked them. How can anyone not like young guys? It was just the kind of care from an elder. There was no other thoughts.

Of course, she didn't know that her man was getting jealous. And this jealousy directly cut off the lads' extra dishes. He occasionally paid for them to go out for a meal of roast duck.

Although five more workers' positions were added, this didn't affect them. Because of the addition of them, the manpower was immediately sufficient.

If there was any business trip, Third would call one of them.

For example, this time. Third planned to go to Hai City to take a look. He hadn't gone over there for a while.

Lin Qing He had packed a baggage for him. Wu Ni's pregnancy length wasn't small now. There was no need to buy children's clothes. When Si Ni's little girl, Yuan Yuan grow up, she can pack up her little clothes and send them there.

Anyway, Third will have to go there every so often. There was no rush.

Lin Qing He had packed up some food from the dry good shop. Of course, she prepared a portion for the old Mister Jiang, old Madam Jiang, and Xue Mei Li.

In addition, she had put in two comfortable maternity clothes.

Xue Mei Li called over that night: "You got Third to bring so many things over. We haven't finished eating the ones you gave us when Eldest got married."
