A 50-year-old man is reborn and becomes a complete slacker, leaving his scumbag children completely

Ye Qinggang replied without much hesitation, "This Chen Chun is quite good. He's bold yet meticulous, and also very righteous. Last time you gave him unlimited access to supply black fungus, but he didn't abuse that right. He's a decent person."

Hu Dahai nodded: "Do you think it's appropriate for me to send this person out to help us develop our business outside? You can teach him a lot and give him some guidance."

Ye Qinggang was taken aback upon hearing this, and this time he did not speak easily.

Instead, he remained silent for a while before saying, "I can't say for sure, but I think we can let him try. After all, you only know if you try something."

"I will also nurture them with care."

He knew that Hu Dahai was doing this for his own good. The last time he went out, his body was away but his heart was at home. He was always worried about whether his children would miss him or think about him.

In those days, communication was underdeveloped, and in rural areas, there wasn't even telephone service. A brigade might only have a few telephones, and those were used for official business, let alone video chat on mobile phones.

They can't go out with the child either, since he's not going out to play, he's going to work. Not only is he homeless, but there's also the danger of constantly moving around. If they're not careful, the child might be kidnapped by human traffickers.

So Ye Qinggang sometimes thinks that if he can avoid going out, he should. If he really has to go out, a short-term trip is fine, but for a long-term trip, he needs to discuss it with Hu Dahai.

“Okay, then call him over tomorrow, and we’ll have a chat.” Hu Dahai immediately made the decision.

He himself did not expect that Chen Chun would use him so quickly.

The next day, Chen Chun, still full of questions, was summoned to Hu Dahai's house.

Although he didn't ask Ye Qinggang or Boss Hu why they wanted him to come over, he still carefully reviewed everything he had done recently to see if he had done anything wrong.

In the end, he came to the conclusion that he didn't seem to have done anything wrong.

Could it be that I sold too much wood ear mushroom? That angered the others, and they banded together to complain to Boss Hu? And now Boss Hu wants to take back his promise to supply me with unlimited fresh wood ear mushrooms?

The more Chen Chun thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Chen Chun was at peace with himself and prepared to accept it. Since that was the case, he couldn't let Boss Hu be in a difficult position. He had to understand Boss Hu. In any case, he had made a lot of money from these wood ear mushrooms recently, and one shouldn't be too greedy.

When he entered the house, he saw that Hu Dahai was already waiting for him inside, with some fruit, candy, and canned fruit on the table.

"Chen Chun is here, please have a seat," Hu Dahai said politely.

After everyone sat down, Hu Dahai gestured to the things on the table: "Are you hungry? Have something to eat first."

Chen Chun swallowed hard. As a young man in his twenties, it was impossible for him not to be tempted by these foods that he usually couldn't afford to buy.

“Mr. Hu, I know you're in a difficult position. I'm willing to compromise on this matter,” Chen Chun said, scratching his head and speaking in a loud voice. He was thinking that rather than letting Mr. Hu bring it up himself, he should do it first.

However, both Hu Dahai and Ye Qinggang were stunned when he said that.

Hu Dahai was completely confused: What the hell? What do you mean I'm in a difficult position and you have to give in?

Ye Qinggang coughed lightly and asked, "Chen Chun, what are you saying?"

Looking at Hu Dahai and Ye Qinggang's expressions, Chen Chun was also a little puzzled. Could it be that he had guessed wrong?

He said cautiously, "Boss Hu, didn't you call me here for something other than the wood ear mushrooms? Didn't you want to take back the unlimited supply of wood ear mushrooms you gave me?"

Hu Dahai laughed and said, "You've got it wrong. Unlimited supply of wood ear mushrooms is a promise we made to you, so how could we easily take it back?"

"I called you here today not for this matter at all," Hu Dahai explained.

However, he didn't rush to ask Chen Chun if he was willing to help him expand the market.

Instead, they would ask other questions, such as whether you are married, how many brothers you have, and how your parents are.

Finally, he came to some conclusions: Chen Chun was a relatively lucky person; his parents were still alive, and he had two older sisters.

Although their family was poor and just an ordinary farming family, they had not experienced any major changes; there were no serious illnesses or disasters.

After learning about this, Hu Dahai then asked, "Would you be willing to help me develop markets in other places and sell our off-season vegetables and wood ear mushrooms, mainly wood ear mushrooms?"

"Regarding salary, you can make your own requests."

Chen Chun was dumbfounded upon hearing this.

He truly hadn't expected that Hu Dahai would value him so highly.

If they could help Hu Dahai expand his market, it would mean that they would go from being outsourced workers to becoming full-time employees with official positions.

With Hu Dahai's off-season vegetables and wood ear mushrooms, he would definitely be welcomed in other cities. At that time, he would have the same status as Ye Qinggang in the Qunyi Brigade.

He was so happy that he didn't know how to reply.

"You, this, I..."

He stammered for a long time, feeling both flattered and bewildered by the sudden surprise.

Hu Dahai and Ye Qinggang weren't in a hurry; they were just waiting for him to make his own statement.

"Yes! Of course I'm willing!" Chen Chun felt as if he had been blessed by Lady Luck. After recovering from his joy, he repeatedly agreed.

Hu Dahai was quite satisfied after hearing this, but still asked, "You need to know that once you choose to do this, you may be away from home for long periods of time, unable to take care of your parents, and may frequently need to travel to other cities? Can you accept that?"

Chen Chun smiled and said, "Boss Hu, I have no money. What use would it be if I stayed with my parents? I would just be sighing and living a hard life with them."

"Moreover, I don't want to spend my whole life stuck in this remote corner of the countryside. I want to go out and explore, to give it a try."

Ye Qinggang and Hu Dahai exchanged a glance, both agreeing with Chen Chun's attitude.

Hu Dahai then asked, "Do you have any salary expectations? How much do you want to earn per month? Or do you have any other requirements? You can tell me."

After a moment's thought, Chen Chun said without hesitation, "If you, Boss Hu, are willing to give me this opportunity, I don't want a salary; I want commission!"

"Oh?" Hu Dahai was surprised. He hadn't expected that there would be such progressive people in the countryside. He had originally thought that Chen Chun would ask for a certain salary.

“Alright then,” Hu Dahai said with a smile. “Since you want a commission, I’ll give you one percent. For every hundred yuan worth of sales you make, I’ll give you one yuan as commission. How about that?”

Hu Dahai's off-season vegetables and wood ear mushrooms have a profit margin of 40% to 50%. Giving Chen Chun 1% of the profit is actually no big deal.

Upon hearing this, Chen Chun immediately agreed: "Okay!"

The two sides quickly reached an agreement, and Hu Dahai left the subsequent issues to Ye Qinggang to negotiate with Chen Chun.

He can't do everything himself; he should focus on the big picture and let go of the small details, and keep an eye on the overall direction.

However, after watching Ye Qinggang and Chen Chun leave, Hu Dahai began to ponder again.

He glanced at the calendar; the year was almost over.

If history follows the same trajectory as the previous era, it is estimated that in another six months, Hangzhou will make some changes to its state-owned enterprises.

For state-owned enterprises that have suffered significant losses in recent years, the Hangzhou government will transfer part or all of their ownership to private enterprises.
