Vol. 1 - Ch. 25 - Let's Eat Together

Huo Feng drove non-stop, to the provincial hospital to pick up the wheelchair with little delay and arrived home at eight o'clock. The first thing he did was to pick up his mother from the bed to sit on the wheelchair, looking at Li Shumei nervously.

"Mom, is it okay to sit like this? Will it be hard on your back?"

Li Shumei tried to turn the wheels by herself, and the chair really moved with her, this alone made her satisfied, and a little bit of strain was acceptable.

"My back is a bit sore, but it's okay, I may have been lying in bed for a long time, so I'll get used to it if I sit down."

Huo Feng sees that her mood is obviously getting better, and is also happy with himself, pointing to the buttons on the wheelchair to teach her how to operate it.

"This one, press it down and it can automatically go straight, no need to push or turn by hand, if you want to stop, press it again, and then this one, you can go backward, there are also gears for speed, the fastest is twenty yards, you don't need to use it at home, I've adjusted the lowest gear for you."

Ordinary wheelchairs can be bought in the county, this is the provincial hospital and the Medical University's project, the price is five times the ordinary wheelchair, in addition to easy to operate, there are other customizations for the patient's features, such as a special storage box for medicines, water cup cover, even reserved under the seat of the urinal interface. It was absolutely value for money.

Li Shumei left to look at the right touch, and with a face of pain asked, "This must be expensive, how much money was spent? Half of your monthly salary has been spent on me, but you also manage the expenses of the family. You simply can not save ......"

"Mom, money earned is to be spent. From my birth, the money you have spent on the family cannot be counted, and now it is also my turn to return."

Li Shumei held her words and smiled. She patted his arm and said with emotion, "The most fortunate in this life is that I gave birth to you. Do not look at me all day lying at home can not get out of the door, but I know, outside quite a lot of people envy me, a paralyzed person. What is to be envied, is it not that I have a good son who knows filial piety?"

Now this world, not everyone has a conscience, unfilial children and grandchildren abound. Having children but being old and having no one to rely on is not rare.

Huo Feng shook her hand and laughed, "In the future, you don't have to lie down all day, you can go out in a wheelchair to make others envy you more."

Li Shumei's depressed heart due to her long term illness instantly opened up, revealing the first truly comforting smile in two years, "Okay, listen to you, I'll go out for a walk tomorrow."

The words slightly pause, Li Shumei want to speak but stopped, as if she wanted to say something do not know how to start. Huo Feng took the initiative to ask, "What is it? With me, what words can not be said?"

Li Shumei smiled, hesitated and said what was in her heart, "In fact, I understand what you are thinking. From the time you entered the food factory, your spirits has been great day after day. When mother looked didn't not know why you were happy, I thought it was because you believed this job was right for you. Then found out that it is not right, you are happy not because of the work or how good the salary is, it's obviously because of the young and beautiful Factory Director Shu."

When she spoke to here, Huo Feng suddenly raised his eyes, it seems that he did not expect his own hidden so deep mind, in front of his mother, there was nothing to hide. He felt straight dissected in the fluorescent light and even had a moment even a little slight panic.

"You want to ask me how I know? What's the big deal? You are my son. As the old saying goes, no one knows a son better than his mother. No son can escape the eyes of his mother. Besides, the factory director has good conditions, but in the eyes of mother, my son's conditions are not bad. If you hadn't chosen to retire to take care of me, you would have been a company commander in the army now. You are so young, and it is not impossible to be promoted to battalion commander in the future."

Huo Feng was amused by her confident remarks. It is easy and difficult to get promoted in the army. Some people can be promoted after working for two years, and some people can only retire or transfer to civilian jobs because they can't get promoted.

"What I mean is that a girl from one family is sought after by hundreds of families. There are so many people eyeing a girl with such good conditions as her. You have to speak up quickly. Don't think you are not worthy of her because of the difficulties at home. If you think so, it's like stabbing a knife in my heart. I won't believe you when you say that my illness doesn't affect your wife-hunting in the future."

Huo Feng knew that the purpose of his mother saying so much was nothing more than to encourage him and let him not belittle himself in his relationship.

"Mom, don't worry. I will only marry the person I love in this life."

Apart from Shu Ping, he will not fall in love with anyone else. He should do his best to fight for his own happiness.

The next day, Huo Feng rushed to send the car back to the factory. When Shu Ping arrived, he had already washed the car. The white Jetta shone with golden light in the morning light.

"Is the wheelchair back? Is it suitable for Auntie?

Huo Feng nodded, "It's very suitable. She has already taken a wheelchair out for a walk this morning. She is in a good mood. I must thank you."

If she hadn't reminded him, Huo Feng would not have thought of going to the provincial hospital for consultation, let alone knowing that there is such a convenient wheelchair that can be customized.

"I just said it casually. I didn't help much. Why should you thank me?" Shu Ping continued with a smile, "In fact, the mood is the most important thing after being sick. As long as the mood is good, the body will get better."

Huo Feng stood with a towel in his hand and listened to her talk. His tall and graceful figure did not look like he was wiping a car, but rather like he was shooting a fashion magazine. Even in the most ordinary clothes, he looked elegant.

Shu Ping was immersed in "beauty" and heard him ask, "I want to go to the cafeteria for breakfast. Do you want to go with me?"

This was the first time he called her to eat in the factory without caring about the eyes of others. Shu Ping immediately felt relieved that his wooden mind had come to its senses. It seemed that the words she said to him yesterday had worked to some extent.

"Well, let's go together. After eating, go to the bank with me."

Since the recipe of meat floss bread was determined, the production of the bakery has been completely on track. As Shu Ping expected before, the market prospect of meat floss bread is broader than that of milk bread, and the supply speed can no longer keep up with the speed of customers' orders.

With the fluctuation of sugar prices in the past two years, Shu Ping decided to close the edible sugar production line and transform it into a bakery to increase the production of bread. At the same time, it also increased the variety of meat products. In addition to meat floss, sausage and ham production lines will continue to be introduced.

These changes cannot be achieved in one go. It will take at least two years and require strong economic support.

The food factory is doing well, but there is no reason to spend all the money in your pocket when doing business. If you do that, you will face a financial crisis once you encounter risks. With the help of financial products, you can not only avoid risks, but also implement business ideas as quickly as possible.

She wanted to go to the bank today to discuss loans. A few days ago, an account manager named Lin Yong took the initiative to contact the food factory and said that the bank now has many preferential policies for corporate loans. If the food factory has a loan demand, he is willing to provide help.

Of course, there is no free lunch in the world. When banks lend money to enterprises, they want the interest paid by the enterprises. However, compared with the funds needed for the reform of the food factory and the huge profits after the reform, this interest is nothing.
