Chapter 108: Rewards

Difficulties?

In this day and age, isn't every family facing difficulties?

Even thirty years from now, won't every family have at least one difficulty?

Difficulties are something that will inevitably happen, and no one can avoid them.

'Lao Yuan, tell me exactly what happened,'

Yuan Hongping was also a little angry: 'Zhang Youfu's family was an only child for three generations. His first child was a girl. He wanted a second child, and the second was also a girl. He went on to have six children, all girls.'

Amazing!

But you could have just bought a lottery ticket.

In terms of probability theory, there is a 50/50 chance of having a boy or a girl.

What are the chances of having six girls in a row?

One in 64, I think.

In other words, there is one in 64 couples.

This is just a theoretical probability.

In reality, there are many factors that affect the gender of a child.

In some families, due to genetic factors, the chances of having a girl are higher.

'Laoqi is finally a boy. But the previous children have to go to school, so the expenses for tuition and living expenses will be high!'

Liu Xiaomei also understood Zhang Youfu's situation: 'Master Zhang's eldest daughter is already in her third year of high school and will take the college entrance exam next year! The second daughter is in her third year of junior high school, and the third to sixth daughters are all in elementary school. It's about time the seventh child started school!'

Han Songlin looked at Zhang Youfu with some envy. This is fine!

No, Zhang Youfu's wife is amazing!

In fact, the older generation of women in Huaguo are all super, super amazing.

Basically, they have all given birth to several children.

In the Han Songlin family, for example, everyone has several siblings nowadays.

In the future, as the population of newborns in China decreases, it is not that people don't want to have children, it is that they cannot find someone to have children with, and they dare not have children.

Han Songlin was curious and asked, 'Zhang, have you ever thought about telling your second daughter to quit school? Wouldn't that relieve a lot of pressure?'

Zhang Youfu became anxious at the mere suggestion: 'That's not going to work. They can study all they want, I'll support them until the day I die!'

Looking at Zhang Youfu, who was so determined, Han Songlin felt that Zhang Youfu was truly great.

He supported his family on his shoulders, suffering and tired, but never once thinking of giving up.

Taking a deep breath, Han Songlin suppressed his unusual emotions.

'Good for you, you're a good father! Let your children study hard and get into university. If they get into Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Peking University, Fudan University, Sichuan University, and so on, the factory will pay for their tuition and give them an additional 300 yuan per month for living expenses.'

Han Songlin patted Zhang Youfu on the shoulder, then turned to Liu Xiaomei and said, 'This, what I said earlier, write it down. In the future, whenever a child of one of our employees at Fule Wine Industry is accepted into university, the factory will give them a reward. The criteria for a good university, your office can sort that out.'

Liu Xiaomei was envious in the presence of everyone!

Everyone present was dumbfounded!

In the future, if an employee of the factory is accepted into university, the factory will pay for their tuition and living expenses?

Liu Xiaomei had to remind Han Songlin, 'Boss, the living allowance of 300 yuan is a bit too high.'

'Eh, it's not high. When you go to college, you need to buy some school supplies in addition to food, and you also need to socialize a bit, so it's just right.'

If someone's child now had 300 yuan a month for living expenses, they really wouldn't know what to do with it.

Anyway, Han Songlin remembered that when he was in college, the standard living allowance was only about 500 yuan a month.

Of course, it wasn't enough.

Before the end of the month, I had to ask my family for more.

At that time, I was happy to spend it, but I really didn't think about whether my family could afford it.

I was going to talk about the new wine, but Han Songlin's announcement of the good news made everyone's faces happy.

Han Songlin tried every kind of wine, as did Yuan Hongping, before settling on a blend as the new wine for the future.

Standing in the shade of a tree, the weather was nice today, the sun warming and comfortable on the body.

When I was studying, I read an article called 'Winter is as fierce as a tiger'.

It said that in winter, the clouds are thinner, the sun shines directly, and the ultraviolet rays are stronger.

But it seems that no one has ever cared about this problem.

Han Songlin silently thought as he watched his younger brother, Han Songqing, who was sitting picking vegetables, supporting him through school must be exhausting!

But he had never once said that he wanted to give up.

His gaze then turned to Han Zeke, who was crouched on the ground playing with stones. Han Songlin couldn't help but smile at the sight, looking at his own childhood, it really was quite an interesting thing.

After adjusting his mindset, Han Songlin slowly walked over.

Because the kitchen had previously been under renovation, a temporary shed had been built as a canteen.

Han Ze, who was playing with stones, seemed to sense something. He looked up and saw Han Songlin.

He immediately stood up and skipped over to Han Songlin, shouting, 'Uncle Songlin!'

Han Songlin laughed and picked Han Ze up. For some reason, little Han Ze particularly liked Han Songlin; was it because they were of the same soul?

Perhaps it was just like that.

Han Songqing looked at Han Songlin as he came over and quickly wiped his hands on his apron.

As he glanced, he saw that Han Ze had left grey marks on Han Songlin's black overcoat.

This was the colour of the mud on the ground.

'Han Ze, come down quickly, look, you've stained your Uncle Songlin's clothes!'

Han Songlin laughed and waved his hand: 'It's fine, clothes get dirty when you wear them out!'

Afraid of getting your clothes dirty?

Then don't wear it, because once you wear it, the clothes will definitely get dirty, and that's something that can't be avoided.

'Hey, this...' Han Songqing didn't know what to say; the clothes that Han Songlin wore were not cheap just by looking at the price.

Sometimes, Liu Yuyan would buy Han Ze some clothes, all of which cost tens of dollars or more than a hundred.

Han Songqing was reluctant to let Han Ze wear them, and as a child, playing on the ground all day, no matter how good the clothes were, they were a waste.

'When will the new canteen be finished?'

Han Songlin looked at the new canteen, which had already been built to a large extent using a frame structure.

Compared to the prefabricated panels used to build the previous building, a frame structure is stronger.

'They said it would be finished before the New Year, but it looks like it's going to be a tight squeeze!'

It's almost New Year's Day!

This year, the Chinese New Year falls in February, which is only a month away.

'Then you'll just have to hang in there a little longer!'

Han Songqing: 'What's the big deal! It's only right.'

Han Songqing rubbed his hands together, not quite sure how to bring up the subject.

Han Songlin naturally noticed Han Songqing's movements and laughed, 'Third brother, if you have something on your mind, just say it; if there's anything a brother can do to help, I'll definitely help.'

'Well, could you lend me 30,000 yuan?'

Oh, so he's finally come around.

'Is it to buy a house?'

Han Songqing smiled sheepishly, 'I want to buy a house in the city.'

'Where are you interested in?'

'The north gate area.'

The north gate area?

Is that it?

Well, no matter where it is, just buy a house in the county town.

'That's not bad. I'll go back to the county town today and get the money for you!'

'Thanks then!'

'We two, what else is there to say thank you for!' Han Songlin reached out and teased Han Ze, saying, 'You see, your old man has prepared you with a house in the city, so in the future you can marry a wife in the city!'

After he finished speaking, Han Songlin couldn't help but laugh.

With himself there, Han Ze's future was naturally changed.

Why not set a small goal first, and marry Han Ze off?

She has to be pretty, with a thin waist and long legs, and most importantly, she has to be too beautiful for him to hold in one hand.

It seems like he is using Liu Yuyan as the standard!
