Back to 1978: Getting rich starts with treasure hunting

Chapter 118 Making money is more important than finding a partner

It is the ninth month of the lunar calendar, which is already mid-October in the Gregorian calendar.

There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening.

After lunch, Gu Jiu rode his bike to a nearby village and informed the people who collected herbs offline to deliver the goods themselves and told them the specific address.

Lin Shu cleaned up the house and thought about Gu Jiu's accusations against her in the morning. The autumn rain brought a chill, so she should really prepare warm clothes for autumn and winter.

There are many types of fabrics in the system mall, and like fruits, the types of fabrics change with the change of seasons.

Now the two fabrics suitable for making summer shirts have been replaced by fabrics suitable for the autumn and winter seasons, that is, knitted cotton fabrics.

The color can be chosen at will.

But fabrics like serge, tweed, corduroy, and woolen cloth have remained unchanged.

Lin Shu first bought knitted cotton fabric, which is suitable for making underwear. She chose beige and red to make two sets of underwear for herself. She also chose navy blue and dark gray to make two sets of underwear for Gu Jiu.

Time is limited, so each person should do two sets first, and then do them slowly when you have time.

I had just bought the cloth and hadn't had time to cut it when there was a knock on the door.

Lin Shu opened the door and found that it was Lin Dongfa, "Why are you here at this time?"

"I drank a little too much at the wedding banquet yesterday, and got up late today." Lin Dongfa pushed the bicycle in and unloaded the sack on the back seat.

Lin Shu brought out the food and said, "Come over quickly, wash your hands and eat. We cooked your meal at noon and we waited for you for a long time, so we thought you were not coming today."

"Okay, aunt."

After riding for dozens of miles, the boy was really hungry. He finished all the remaining food in the pot, wiped his mouth, and drank a large glass of warm water. Only then did Dongfa feel alive again.

"Dongfa, come back tomorrow and help me carry the unopened sewing machine from home."

The Lin family now has two sewing machines, one was bought by Lin Shu, which is the sewing machine used by the Lin family now. The other one was sent by Gu Jiuding himself, but it has not been unpacked yet, so it can be used directly after it is installed.

In the county town, she wanted to make clothes, but it was very inconvenient without a sewing machine. It was also not very convenient to take the cut cloth to the tailor shop to make them.

"Okay, I'll come again tomorrow."

After finishing his meal, Lin Dongfa worked with Lin Shu to cut cloth. After resting for an hour, he said goodbye to Lin Shu and rode back on his bike.

"Dongfa, are you back from the county again?"

Before entering the village, I was stopped by a girl who was doing farm work in the fields.

This girl was the only one in Xiaohe Production Team who graduated from high school. Her name was Cao Meiyun.

"Meiyun? Are you doing farm work here?"

"Well, you've been to the county town again after two days, aren't you tired?"

Lin Dongfa patted his bicycle and said with a smile: "Why would I feel tired if I have a bicycle to travel with?"

The only bicycle in the village has attracted countless people's envy. Although Cao Meiyu doesn't know how to ride a bicycle, it doesn't stop her from wanting a bicycle of her own.

But due to the family situation, her parents would not allow her to buy a car.

After the autumn harvest, my family helped to arrange a blind date, but there were only a handful of families in the countryside who could afford the betrothal gift of three turns and one bell.

Among the few families with such a reputation, good-looking men are even rarer.

In the past, the Lin family was poor. Although Lin Dongfa looked good, he had a low education and a poor family background, so he was not considered by her. But now things are different. The three brothers of the Lin family all have jobs in the city, and their conditions are naturally rising.

If she marries into their family, Lin Dongfa is the only son of the eldest wife of the Lin family. Lin Wei cannot let him stay in the countryside forever. Maybe after marrying him, she can become a city dweller soon.

"I really envy you for being able to go to the city so often. I haven't been to the county town since I graduated."

Dongfa glanced at her and said, "When you were in high school, you should have been in the middle school in the next town. How did you have the opportunity to go to the county town?"

Cao Meiyun smiled shyly: "We took the college entrance examination for graduation in the county."

"Oh, what's fun in the county? It's just like that." Lin Dongfa saw someone coming from a distance, so he pushed his bicycle forward and said, "Let's not talk about it now. I'm going home."

"Hey! You..." Cao Meiyu stomped her feet in anger.

In fact, when Cao Meiyun just graduated and returned to the village, Lin Dongfa wanted to marry a educated wife and took the initiative to confess his love to her.

However, Cao Meiyun looked down on him at that time and refused.

The people of Dongfa are not stupid. Cao Meiyun stops him to talk every now and then. It's just that she wants to go back to his family because his family is well off now.

To be honest, Cao Meiyu's appearance was very much to his liking, and for a moment, he was attracted to her.

But right.

I heard from my uncle-in-law yesterday that as long as a boy has money and power, he will not be afraid of not being able to find a young and beautiful girl.

He was shocked by these words. According to his uncle-in-law's words, making money was the most important thing for him now, and finding a wife would only hinder him.

After becoming rich, I am still worried about not being able to find an educated wife.

Gu Jiu had no idea that his private conversation with his wife was overheard by Dongfa, and he had no idea that these words almost led the young man into trouble.

He returned home now and found Lin Shu cutting cloth.

Judging from the color of the fabric, it seems to be prepared for him.

"Wife, are you going to make clothes for me?"

"Well, it's a change of season, make a few sets for backup."

"Thank Wife."

"No need to thank me, just wear the clothes I made and don't attract any attention outside."

Gu Jiu scratched his brow, "You make me sound like a butterfly."

Lin Shu snorted inwardly. The styles she made were all from later times. He was tall and handsome, and he would surely charm many girls if he wore them.

Some people may think that if you are afraid of being noticed by others, you should dress as uglily as possible.

But Lin Shu thought differently. Her man was the one who saw her the most every day. In order to prevent outsiders from thinking about him, wouldn't it be an eye-catcher if she dressed her man up to be ugly?

Her idea is to dress her man up handsomely so that she can enjoy the look of him and feel better naturally.

After breakfast the next day, Lin Shu went out with Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu looked at the listless Lin Shu, frowned and said, "Actually, it's okay for me to go alone. How about you rest at home?"

Lin Shu was facing the morning breeze, feeling much more sober. He shook his head and said, "No, it's fine to stay at home. Why don't I go for a walk outside with you? I can also learn about the market situation."

Gu Jiu couldn't do anything about her, so he asked, "Which factory should we go to first?"

"Let's go to the winery first, then the match factory, and finally the food factory. These three factories happen to be on the same route, so it should be enough to visit all three in the morning."

The winery in the county town is called a winery, but in fact it is just a small factory with dozens of people, which mainly produces bulk wine.

In a small place like a county town, bulk wine sells the best, and the wine that ordinary people drink at home is basically bulk wine.

When they arrived at the winery gate, the two were stopped by the factory guards.

When the factory guard heard that they were here to see the factory director, he did not dare to delay them. He asked them to register at the door and let the two in.

The factory is not big and you can walk from the factory gate to the end in ten minutes.
