Back to the 1970s: Building My Fortune Through Time Trading-Chapter 469: Arrival in Hai City

The more she thought about it, the more she found it reasonable. Without delay, she gave her home address and promptly pressed her fingerprint stamp.

Su Xiaoxiao checked it, confirmed it was correct, and carefully put away the IOU.

Soon, the train arrived at the station, and the old lady hurried off with her belongings, seemingly afraid that Su Xiaoxiao might change her mind.

Su Xiaoxiao continued reading her book from her seat, while the old man who had been quizzing her earlier came over to chat.

"Young comrade, are you still in school?"

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head: "Graduated, now I’m working."

"Are you planning to take the college entrance exam next year?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded, and the old man looked pleased: "Study hard, maybe we’ll meet again someday."

Su Xiaoxiao was a bit baffled, but she couldn’t ignore someone with a friendly face, so she politely nodded back at him.

She didn’t want to have too much interaction with strangers, so she continued reading.

As the train neared Chuan City, Su Xiaoxiao had already gone through three books, secretly taking pictures of important content.

When she returned the books to Wang Weimin, he was so shocked that he couldn’t speak for a moment.

"If I had an outstanding student like you, I’d probably wake up laughing from my dreams."

Wang Weimin kept sighing, as a teacher, he deeply appreciated a talented student like Su Xiaoxiao.

As Su Xiaoxiao was about to get off the train, he slipped a piece of paper to her: "Mr. Su, this is my address in Chuan City. If you have the opportunity, come and visit me, so I can be a proper host."

After a pause, he continued, "If you need any help, feel free to write to me."

Su Xiaoxiao was genuinely touched by Wang Weimin’s kindness.

In those days, most teachers were simple and honest, unlike some modern teachers who judge people with bias.

Su Xiaoxiao waved goodbye, carrying her satchel as she got off the train.

As soon as she reached the station exit, she saw two familiar figures.

Chen Lingling saw her and waved her arms vigorously: "Sister, over here."

Beside her, Chen Guanghai was a step behind, unable to call her "sister," as the word got stuck in his throat.

Chen Lingling called him uncle, and called Mr. Su sister... The generational gap was so mixed up that even Bao Zheng would shake his head.

Oh well, everyone can just address each other as they please.

Chen Guanghai thought, smiling at Su Xiaoxiao: "Sister, what brings you here this time? Can you stay a few more days?"

Last time Su Xiaoxiao came in a hurry and left in a hurry, so if she had the chance this time, they definitely should be good hosts.

"I should be able to stay for a week. I mainly came this time to discuss a seafood can order with you."

Su Xiaoxiao smiled as she spoke, and Chen Guanghai immediately wanted to help her with her things, only to find that her hands were empty, as she hadn’t brought anything.

Su Xiaoxiao: "..."

She had just been so focused on finding them that she forgot to take out her belongings.

Clearing her throat, she said, "Brother Chen, Sister Ling, I need to grab my luggage. I was so excited to see you two that I forgot about it."

"Go on, hurry back, or it’ll be bad if someone else takes it."

Both of them looked worried, aware that there were plenty of thieves on trains at the end of the year, and this girl had a big heart to leave her luggage on the train.

Su Xiaoxiao thought, even if a thief came along, they wouldn’t find her luggage unless they could move freely in and out of her space like her.

After a while, she came back carrying a large bundle of things, leaving the two of them dumbfounded.

How could she forget about all this stuff?

Chen Guanghai quickly took over the large bundle from Su Xiaoxiao’s back, instantly feeling its heavy weight.

He almost needed to brace himself to avoid straining his back. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

This girl looks so slim, yet she has such great strength.

She can easily carry such a heavy bundle of things.

For a moment, Chen Guanghai doubted his own abilities.

Su Xiaoxiao shifted her gaze awkwardly. She had quietly added some things into the bundle earlier, so it was probably a bit heavy.

The three of them hadn’t walked very far before Su Xiaoxiao noticed a black sedan parked by the roadside, and couldn’t help but look at it with envy.

Oh, she wondered when she’d be able to drive such a car.

Currently, there were no taxis, and getting around relied on route eleven, which was quite inconvenient.

She was about to reluctantly look away when she saw Chen Guanghai carrying the bundle, walking over to the back of the sedan, opening the trunk, and stuffing the entire large bundle inside.

After stuffing it in, seeing Su Xiaoxiao’s astonished face, he quickly called out, "Mr. Su, get in the car."

Su Xiaoxiao was a bit bewildered: "Brother Chen, did you buy this car?"

Previously, they didn’t even have enough to eat, and now they suddenly had a car, which left Su Xiaoxiao with mixed feelings.

After all, buying a car now wasn’t as simple as it is in modern times.

Not only did you need money, but you also needed connections.

"This car’s not mine, it’s our factory’s. We pulled some strings to buy it as a government auctioned vehicle. How does it look to you?"

Even this second-hand car made them the talk of the town, driving around was quite the spectacle.

Su Xiaoxiao circled the car once, and her envy was beyond words.

She really wanted to buy one herself, but unfortunately, the current national policies didn’t allow for private car ownership.

Oh well, since she couldn’t buy one, she’d just hitch a ride for a thrill.

After all, she had shares in the factory, so technically speaking, she kind of owned a car.

Previously, she had to change buses twice to get to Chenhe Village, but now with the car, the journey was smooth, and they quickly arrived at the village entrance.

In less than two months, Chenhe Village no longer looked the same as when she first visited.

Everyone’s faces were filled with joy, their spirits visibly uplifted.

"Sister, now our entire village works at the factory, and even the surrounding villages rely on our factory."

Listening to Chen Guanghai, he explained that getting a worker’s position at the factory was highly sought after.

Those who started working there early were earning over thirty yuan a month, comparable to many state-run factories.

Chen Guanghai said this smiling, his previous hardship and bitterness were all gone, making him look a lot younger.

"Come on, sister, I’ll take you on a tour of the factory."

Saying that, Chen Guanghai led the way to the factory.

When Su Xiaoxiao was leaving, the factory still had simple mud walls. Now it had been replaced with red brick walls. The workshop was spacious and bright, looking much more legitimate.

As they walked, Chen Guanghai introduced her to different sections: "This is the office, this is the production area, this is the canning area..."

Most of the processes were still manual. Watching the factory, Su Xiaoxiao was quite satisfied, knowing that achieving this level in those days was already impressive.

"Sister, about the ice factory you mentioned last time, do you think we now have the capability to set one up?"

Chen Guanghai eagerly asked, but before Su Xiaoxiao could respond, a stern voice came from nearby.

"Hey, how are you working like that? This is a food factory; hygiene is crucial, got it? If I catch you picking your nose and working again, I’ll beat you up. Take away the cans you touched, and the cost will be deducted from your salary..."
