Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

Taihe City.

The news that the reception building had been contracted out as a whole had spread within a certain range.

The employees who originally worked in the guesthouse were fine and didn't show any reaction. They just waited for the new Taihe Hotel to be completed and then moved there to work.

But the merchants on the first floor were unwilling to do so.

With the contractor, it is equivalent to these merchants collectively changing their landlord, and he is a sub-landlord.

This made these people feel very uncomfortable.

Inside Hongri Barber Shop.

People from seven or eight shops were here, and there was a lot of noise in the house. Many of them were filled with righteous indignation and complained.

"Reform, reform, reform, what has it become? This good reception building has been contracted out without any reason. What are we supposed to do?"

"That's right! We've only rented that shop for less than half a year. Several families of us pooled our money to run it. If we're not allowed to operate now, our losses will be huge!"

"You're a small group, but we're a big group. The street office helped us rent this shop, telling us to find our own jobs. Now look what's happening. We've just found a job, and now we're out of work again. The street office has become a coward. Where can we go to seek justice?"

The owner of the hair cutting shop came over at this time.

He held a comb in his right hand and combed his shiny hair again and again.

"Speaking of miserable, who among you can compare to me? You guys are collectively owned, but I'm just one person. I carry a broken pair of scissors to cut people's hair all day long, and people always say I'm a self-employed person and look down on me. I saved penny by penny and finally built this shop. Now they want to take it away. Half my life's hard work has been wasted. It would be more satisfying if I could just take my life."

"Who says it isn't?"

"It's the same for everyone. Who would be willing to hand over the shop back without any reason?"

······

Everyone was talking at once, and the room was in chaos again.

One of them looked up at the barber and suddenly said, "Old Xia, you have the most experience on this street, and you usually have the most ideas. How about you come up with a plan and tell us what we should do about this?"

"Yes, Master Xia has been here the longest, and you are most familiar with the people in the guesthouse. You must have a solution!"

"Tell me..."

"Yes, Master Xia, if you have any ideas, please tell us now. We are in dire straits."

Everyone looked at Xia Ming, wanting to hear if he had any ideas.

Xia Ming combed his hair and walked in front of everyone.

Then he turned around and said to everyone, "I can tell you, but first I have to ask you, are you all unwilling to hand over the shop?"

The owner of the dim sum shop, arms folded across his chest, was the first to respond: "Of course, we're doing well, who would want to hand over the shop?"

"We don't want to either."

"I don't want to..."

The answers from the people in the room were almost unanimous; no one was willing to give up the shop.

Xia Ming was satisfied after seeing this.

"Okay! Since no one is willing to hand over the shop, I think this matter will be easy to handle."

"What should we do? Master Xia, please stop keeping me in suspense and tell me quickly. I'm almost dying of anxiety."

"My plan is simple. Let's all unite and fight them. We have a lease and we've already paid the rent. We'll just refuse to pay and see what they can do! If they dare to use force, we'll unite and file a complaint with the city government. We'll make this a big deal and see what they do then!"

After Xia Ming finished speaking, everyone in the room started talking again.

"Is this okay?"

"Yeah, even if all of us unite, there aren't that many of us, so I'm afraid we won't be able to achieve anything."

"There are not too many people in our group, but there is another group. If we unite the people from the dozen or so shops over there, our strength will be greater. When the time comes, all the people in the shops oppose it, and we will see what they can do!" Xia Ming said confidently.

Listen to what Xia Ming said.

Everyone in the room nodded, and they all thought this method was feasible.

"That's a good idea, but who's going to contact them? I'm not very good at speaking and I can't explain it clearly."

"Oh my god, you can let me join in the fun, but I can't say anything even if I'm asked to."

"Since Master Xia proposed this idea, it's of course most appropriate for him to speak up. I suggest that we all elect Master Xia as our representative, and we all listen to him."

The owner of the pastry shop spoke first.

As soon as these words were spoken, several people immediately agreed.

"That's good. Master Xia would be the best person to talk to him."

"We all agreed to let Master Xia be the representative."

Xia Ming looked at the big guy and couldn't help but smile a little, his heart was obviously filled with joy.

But he still waved his hands and said modestly: "I can't do it! I can't do it... How can I, a self-employed person, be your representative? It's so inappropriate."

"That's not appropriate. I think Master Xia has to be the representative. I'm sure you can do it well."

"Yes, Master Xia, don't be so modest."

······

Xia Ming put down his hand, his face becoming somewhat serious.

"Since everyone is so kind to me, I won't refuse. I'll take on the role, but there are two things I must say beforehand. Otherwise, whoever wants to take the role can do it. I definitely won't take it."

"You said."

"First, in all operations, everyone must follow orders and no one can slack off."

"Okay, we all listen to you."

"Listen to you."

······

"Secondly, no one should be scheming. It's not okay to let others take the lead while you sit back and just sit back and reap the rewards."

"promise!"

"If we need to act, we should act together and no one should hide their intentions."

·····

Seeing that everyone agreed, Xia Ming smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, since everyone thinks highly of me, then I, Xia Ming, will take on the responsibility of being the representative!"

"I'll go door to door and talk to that guy, and try to get them to join our camp."

"it is good!"

"Master Xia is still efficient."

When Li Youcai returned home, his aunt had already prepared dinner.

Chu Xinyan is already five months pregnant and her belly is slightly bulging.

"Dad is back!"

Duoduo is not in kindergarten. She is already 6 years old. In half a month, she will be able to go to preschool class in elementary school.

There is still a big difference between preschool and kindergarten.

Preschool classes are run by primary schools and the teaching location is within the primary school. The purpose is to allow children to adapt to primary school study and life in advance before they officially enter the first year of primary school. The teaching content mainly focuses on language, mathematics and science.

Kindergartens focus more on the physical and mental development of children, and pay more attention to their overall development. The learning content is mainly music, art, sports, etc.

In this day and age, many parents choose to skip preschool altogether to save money.

But in Li Youcai's opinion, it is still necessary to let Duoduo go to preschool.

"Have you been good today?" Li Youcai picked up Duoduo and asked lovingly.

"I'm a very good boy. If you don't believe me, ask mom."

Chu Xinyan moved her body and was about to get off the ground: "You must be tired. Aunt has finished cooking and is going to Dad's place. You wash your hands. I'll go heat up a dish so we can eat."

"Stop moving, I can do it myself, you just need to rest." Li Youcai didn't dare to let Chu Xinyan get hot.

He hurriedly stopped him and ran to the kitchen.

Not long after, the food was served.

Li Youcai picked up some food for Chu Xinya and said softly, "Let's move to the county town in a few days."
