Chapter 152 Wearing a watch back to the compound
"Master Yi, I have great faith in your character and skills, which is why I'm leaving Sister Zhang to you."
"But look at what Sister Zhang is like in our team."
"That's not okay."
Wang Lifa said in a deep voice.
"I know. I saw what happened today. It is true that Jia's sister-in-law did something wrong."
"I will talk to her carefully next time, and I hope she will change her mind."
Yi Zhonghai agreed.
"Okay, let's work together to make the team better."
Wang Lifa acted as if he was very encouraged.
The two of them turned around.
Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly fell.
If he had the ability to make Jia Zhang turn over a new leaf and become a new person, Jia Dongxu would not have remained a first-class fitter for several years.
Wang Lifa's face was also full of resentment.
Zhang's existence is indeed a bad nut for the team.
The problem is that this bad apple is in the team, and Wang Lifa really has no good chance to pick it out.
I can only endure it for now and wait for Jia Zhang to make a big mistake or find an opportunity to transfer her to another position.
Time flies and the bell for the end of get off work rings.
Chen Jianye checked his watch.
Five o'clock exactly.
The watch keeps good time.
After checking the time, Chen Jianye took off his work protection equipment and packed up his tools.
After drinking a sip of water, he walked out of the workshop leisurely.
Halfway through the journey, he brushed off the dust on his body.
After taking the bicycle, Chen Jianye rode leisurely.
Because he was holding the handlebars of the bicycle with both hands, the watch on his wrist was naturally visible.
The Phoenix brand bicycle was quite eye-catching, and many eyes fell on Chen Jianye.
Soon someone noticed the watch on his wrist.
"Oh my god, this guy not only has a bicycle, but also a watch."
"Is he the new engineer in our factory?"
"Even if the engineer could get the ticket, he couldn't get so much money. I think he is the son of the chief engineer."
Everyone was amazed, but some people spoke in a sour tone.
There are always people who hate the rich in every era.
Chen Jianye was startled when he heard the discussions among the crowd.
Fortunately, it is now 61, and the frenzy has not yet begun.
If he had waited until 66 or 67 and hung a pen in his breast pocket, he would have been easily taken in for interrogation.
"Fortunately, I couldn't carry a radio or a sewing machine with me. Even if I had gotten all three of them, people would only see my bicycle and watch."
Chen Jianye thought to himself.
Soon, he returned to the courtyard.
Carrying his bicycle across the courtyard, Yan Fugui, holding a watering can, smiled and greeted: "Jianye is back?"
"Third uncle is back."
Chen Jianye replied with a smile.
"Hey, you, you, you got a watch."
Yan Fugui's eyes fell on Chen Jianye's wrist and his voice trembled.
"Yes, I just bought it today, second-hand."
Chen Jianye gave a simple explanation.
This is to prevent some jealous people in the hospital from spreading negative information about him.
"Second-hand is fine, how much is it?"
Yan Fugui suddenly became alert.
He lived frugally and saved some money to buy a bicycle or a watch.
We'll see what tickets we can get then.
Why not buy a sewing machine and a radio? Because you can't carry these two things with you.
No class.
"Two hundred dollars."
Chen Jianye said with a smile.
"Hiss! Two hundred dollars."
"You are really rich, kid."
"Can you show it to me?"
Yan Fugui was amazed and asked expectantly.
"Ordinary people can't do that, but since you asked, I have to give you face."
Chen Jianye chuckled, took off the watch on his wrist and handed it over.
Yan Fugui held it with both hands, fearing that the watch would fall.
"Tsk, tsk, this thing is really good, you definitely made a profit on the two hundred bucks."
"It's like new. It only has one scratch, which you can't see unless you look closely. If you mind, I can introduce you to a watchmaker who can replace the strap."
"That's great, that's great."
Yan Fugui praised it highly.
The three aunts and Yu Li came over and asked about the price of the watch.
"Jianye is really willing to spend money."
After learning the price of the watch, the three aunts were shocked.
"Is Jianye planning to get the three turns and one ring together to find a wife?"
Yu Li joked.
She knew that Chen Jianye had a lot of things going on, and now that they had all come out, how could he not find a wife?
Young people have so much firepower that they can even make a hole in the bed.
"Ahem, it depends on fate when choosing a partner."
Chen Jianye smiled.
"Jianye, keep your watch. Thank you."
Yan Fugui held the watch in both hands and returned it.
"What are you thanking me for, Uncle San, it's just a small matter."
Chen Jianye took the watch, put it on his hand, and then pushed the cart away.
"Jianye is really promising. He has bought a bicycle and a watch."
"That's not great. He really is willing to spend money."
"He has money. The money his parents saved before, the pension the factory gave his father, and the compensation for Sha Zhu, how much money does it have together?"
"Shazhu has been quiet for a while. He is so suppressed by Jianye that he dares not speak loudly."
Everyone gathered in the front yard and talked a lot.
The residents of the courtyard who came back after Chen Jianye also knew that Chen Jianye had bought a watch.
"I was the one who contacted Jianye about the watch. It was from a leader in the department next to mine."
"Normally, that person always covets that watch and would wipe it clean with a silk scarf. Now he ran into trouble and needed money urgently, so he gave it to Jianye at a low price."
Xu Damao joined the discussion group and spoke very excitedly.
"Da Mao, you are wrong. Why didn't you tell me about the good news?"
"We are from the same courtyard."
Liu Haizhong said unhappily.
"Second uncle, are you willing to spend 200 yuan to buy a watch?"
Xu Damao said unhappily.
"Hey, what do you mean, are you saying I have no money or something?"
An angry look appeared on Liu Haizhong's face.
"Just tell me whether you are willing to give it up or not."
Xu Damao said.
"I'm sure I'd be willing to do that."
Liu Haizhong said firmly.
"Okay, I'll look for one for you and introduce one to you later."
"Once I find someone, don't say no."
Xu Damao said with a smile.
"Haha, the water in my room has boiled. I'll go back and take a look."
Seeing that Xu Damao was serious, Liu Haizhong quickly found an excuse to run away.
It's okay to brag, but what about really making him spend two hundred to buy a watch?
He is a blacksmith, what does he need a watch for?
The working environment was hot and he sweated a lot, so the watch was corroded after a while.
It's a waste to buy it.
Everyone burst into laughter.
Jia Zhang came back with a gloomy face, and when she heard everyone talking about Chen Jianye buying a watch, her face became even gloomier.
However, she did not return to the Jia family. Instead, she stood outside the discussion group, eagerly absorbing information.
Soon, Jia Zhang found out that the seller of the watch was introduced to Chen Jianye by Xu Damao.
The seller was indeed a small leader of the steel mill, and the source of the watch was legal.
Jia Zhang knew that she couldn't find any opportunity, so she went home with her arms folded.
"What do you do at home every day?"
"I worked in the factory all day and I didn't even have anything to eat when I got home. What's going on? Are you planning to starve me to death?"
As soon as Jia Zhang got home, she started to lose her temper.
"Mom, dinner will be ready in a little while."
"We usually eat at this time. What's wrong with you today?"
Qin Huairu looked confused.
"I'm tired from working today and I'm hungry. Is that okay?"
"What? I have to explain to you that I want to eat, right?"
Jia Zhang slammed the table, furious.
"Mom, I didn't mean that. I just asked."
Qin Huairu lowered her posture.
"It's not even possible to ask!"
Jia Zhang shouted loudly.
After scolding Qin Huairu, Jia Zhang felt much better.
As for whether Qin Huairu felt comfortable or not, Jia Zhangshi didn't care.
