Yeyuan found the manager. 520 official website

He told him about his desire to go home.

Manager Wang, whom everyone secretly called Fat Wang, was actually a decent person, just fond of taking small advantages.

The amusement park was his brother-in-law's business, and he worked here as the manager, with good interpersonal relationships. He would only take some small advantages in trivial matters.

After hearing about Yeyuan's family situation, Fat Wang readily agreed to Yeyuan's resignation request. He also kindly told Yeyuan that if he wanted to work here again in the future, the amusement park would still welcome him.

Yeyuan expressed his gratitude and then bought a pack of cigarettes for Fat Wang, hoping to get his salary for this month settled in advance.

The amusement park had a rule that when an employee resigned, the salary for the current month would be settled together with the next month's salary. Since Yeyuan did not plan to return this time, he wanted Fat Wang to settle it in advance.

Fat Wang looked at the pack of cigarettes on the table and readily called the finance department to give Yeyuan the money. This was the reason why Fat Wang had good interpersonal relationships.

As long as you gave him a little something, he would give the green light on issues that did not affect the company's development.

This was also why many employees knew he was doing something in the procurement but no one reported him.

Sitting on the bus back to Pinghai County.

Lan Island City was about 180 kilometers away from Pinghai County, and the bus ride took just over an hour.

Yeyuan looked out the window at the scenery, feeling deep self-reproach. He had not been home for four months, and the last time he went home was during the Spring Festival. Sigh, he was truly unfilial.

Thinking about this return, with the "Water Control Technique" as his trump card, he did not plan to go back to the big city.

It was better for him to return to being a fisherman. There were two types of fishing villages along the coast: one that relied entirely on fishing at sea, but such fishermen were becoming fewer because there were no fish in the near sea, and deep-sea fishing was profitable but required a large investment, often in the millions, which few people could afford. The other type was marine aquaculture.

The second type was marine aquaculture, including shallow sea farming, tidal flat farming, and bay farming.

This time, he was going home to solve the issue of his parents' house relocation and to secure his startup capital.

Whether it was fishing at sea or marine aquaculture, both required capital. Now, he only had a pitiful 50,000 yuan in his bank account.

He often heard the old people in the village say, "The closer you get to your hometown, the more timid you become." When Yeyuan was in college, he did not feel it, but this time, he deeply experienced the meaning of this saying.

Pinghai County, a county with a long coastline.

After getting off the bus, Yeyuan went to a building materials market a few kilometers from the dock.

Yeyuan's family had two children; Yeyuan had an older sister named Ye Hui.

His sister was three years older than Yeyuan. Because the family's conditions were not too good and the elders still had a preference for boys, Ye Hui stopped going to school after high school and started working in the county.

Later, she married a man who ran sales for a building materials company. Her husband had a bit of a reputation in the building materials industry in the county, but because the family's conditions were average and they had no capital, he continued to work for his boss.

Yeyuan remembered that in his third year of college, his brother-in-law and sister came back for the Spring Festival and wanted to borrow a few ten thousand yuan from his parents to start his own business. His parents wanted to save this money for Yeyuan after he graduated, so they did not agree.

At that time, his brother-in-law had already raised 100,000 yuan, and with a few more ten thousand, he could start his own business. Because his parents did not lend him the money, his brother-in-law used the 100,000 yuan to open a small supermarket next to the building materials market for his sister and continued to work outside.

After that incident, his sister and brother-in-law rarely came to their house.

Previously, they would come home at least once a month, but now they only came back during important holidays like the Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival.

Looking at the distant, shabby supermarket with the words "Huihui Supermarket" painted on the wall, Yeyuan felt a pang of sadness.

He saw a little girl with two pigtails sitting under the wall, reading a picture book about animals.

Yeyuan called out happily, "Niu Niu, come here, see who's back?"

The little girl looked up, saw Yeyuan, and broke into a innocent smile. She quickly stood up, opened her arms, and ran over, shouting in a baby voice, "Mom, mom, Uncle is here, Uncle is here."

Yeyuan squatted down, picked up Niu Niu, and rubbed her neck with his stubbly chin, making Niu Niu giggle.

At this moment, Ye Hui came to the door and said in surprise, "Xiao Yuan is back, why are you back at this time?"

Hearing his sister's tone, Yeyuan knew that his parents had not told her about the relocation.

Yeyuan held Niu Niu and came to his sister, looking at her 28-year-old face, which already looked like that of a middle-aged woman.

His sister pulled Yeyuan's hand and walked into the supermarket.

The small supermarket had two rooms, the outer one being the store, about ten square meters.

The inner room was a bedroom and also served as a storage room, with a double bed for the family of three. The floor was filled with various drinks and snacks.

His sister took a stool and asked Yeyuan to sit down, then took a bottle of cola from the refrigerator and opened it for him.

Yeyuan took the cola, and at this moment, Niu Niu said in her baby voice, "Mom, I want to drink, I want to drink."

"Children can't drink soft drinks, it's not good. If you're thirsty, Mom will give you water," she said, reaching for the water.

Yeyuan quickly stopped Ye Hui, "Sis, I'm not too thirsty, I can't finish a whole bottle. Give Niu Niu a cup. It's fine to drink occasionally."

Ye Hui gave Yeyuan a look and got up to get a cup.

"Uncle is the best, Uncle is the best," Niu Niu's eyes turned into crescent moons.

Yeyuan looked at Niu Niu and took out a princess dress and a Barbie doll from his bag, handing them to the little girl.

The little girl's eyes sparkled at the sight of the pink princess dress and the beautifully packaged Barbie doll.

At this moment, his sister came out with a cup and saw the gifts Yeyuan gave to Niu Niu. "Xiao Yuan, you're not a kid anymore, you need to learn to save money. You'll need it to get married in the future."

Yeyuan smiled but said nothing. He knew his sister was genuinely concerned for him.

He then took out a set of cosmetics and a beautiful fishing rod from his bag.

Yeyuan's brother-in-law had no particular hobbies, except for fishing at the seaside whenever he had time.

His sister often argued with her husband about the price of fishing rods, so this time Yeyuan specially bought a 5,000 yuan sea rod for his brother-in-law.

Yeyuan spent all the 10,000 yuan he earned from salvaging the bracelet on his sister's family.

Although his sister did not know the price of the fishing rod, she could tell it was not cheap.

Just as she was about to say something, Yeyuan quickly spoke up, "Sis, don't scold me. I don't plan to go back this time. I want to develop here in our hometown."

Ye Hui was taken aback, then burst into tears, pointing at Yeyuan, "How much have our parents sacrificed for you? How much have I sacrificed? And you end up in this poor county?"

Yeyuan was a bit surprised by his sister's reaction, not expecting it to be so strong.

Just as he was thinking about how to persuade her, his brother-in-law came in.

Seeing his sister crying and Yeyuan looking at a loss, he was also taken aback.

Seeing her husband, his sister clung to him and cried, like a child complaining, "You tell Xiao Yuan, our parents saved every penny for him. I even stopped school so he could go to a good university. And now, he wants to come back to this poor county. What do we have here now? Who does he deserve?"
