Naruto: Start as Uchiha Obito

Faced with He Cui's firm call to stop, Chen Xiang sighed, and had no choice but to put down the cloth in his hand and walked away dejectedly.

Watching Chen Xiang leave the garment factory, the female workers suddenly felt bored and packed up their things to go home.

"Wait a minute, don't leave in a hurry, I have a few words to say."

He Cui looked at them with a look of dismay, and said bitterly, "Look at you all, you are like lazy donkeys! You keep asking for a pay raise and complaining that our factory's unit price is too low. But look at him, he made three sets of clothes in less than two hours. According to the normal working hours of eight hours a day, he can earn one dollar and fifty cents a day!"

"One dollar and fifty cents a day, that's how much a month is? Forty-five dollars! That's more than the workers at the steel mill next door make!"

He Cui's words overwhelmed the female workers present and no one dared to stand up to argue; because facts speak louder than words, a grown man who had never touched needlework before was able to catch up with them in output after just a short time of starting. How could they not accept it!

Inadvertently, a female worker touched the corner of He Yue's clothes, came over and whispered to her: "Yueyue, you are the hope of our Cuizhu Garment Factory. You have the fastest hands in the whole factory. Come on! You must do your best for us and never lose to him!"

"Okay, I get it now."

When He Yue heard this, her pretty face turned red. She stammered in response and felt her heart was in a mess. She inexplicably developed a great curiosity about Chen Xiang.

Very big!

"Mom, I'm going back first, you should come back early too."

After saying goodbye to He Cui, He Yue ran away, but she did not go home. Instead, she caught up with Chen Xiang and followed him secretly; He Yue wanted to know who he was.

…………

Chen Xiang strolled on the street, holding two dollars in his pocket, walking very coolly. In his words, pretentiousness is like the wind, always with me!

After entering the supply and marketing cooperative, Chen Xiang was obviously more confident than before. He looked at the dazzling array of goods on the shelves, including daily necessities, daily necessities, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, and even a lot of meat.

It can be said that although the sparrow is small, it has all the organs!

You know, in the 1980s, a town often had only one supply and marketing cooperative, which was equivalent to a large supermarket in later generations; the prices were very cheap, which made Chen Xiang couldn't help but gasp; if he could take the money from his previous life and spend it in this era, then he would definitely be the richest man in the world!

Eggs are 1.09 yuan/jin; white-striped chicken is 1.23 yuan/jin; white-striped goose is yuan/jin...

Roasted pork intestines 1.05 yuan/portion; braised pork strips 1.20 yuan/portion; braised pork breast 1.2 yuan/portion...

The most expensive item in the supply and marketing cooperative is a "Modu brand" watch, which is only about a hundred yuan. There is only one in the store, and it is probably used by the boss to show off. It seems that no matter what era, people are very concerned about face.

None of the four major items were cheap. They were worth several months' salary for an average person. But Chen Xiang was a time traveler after all, so he didn't feel anything when he looked at the prices.

Chen Xiang swallowed his saliva, wishing he could buy them all at once and take them home. He wanted Yun Yun to see how capable his husband was, and only two hundred-dollar bills were enough!

After a little thought, he spent fifty cents to buy five pounds of rice; flour was a little more expensive, at one and a half cents per pound, so he bought three pounds; he also got a bag of eggs, which only cost seven cents each.

At that time, the country implemented a planned economy. To buy rice and flour, you needed to pay for food coupons. If you didn't have them, you had to spend extra money.

The Xiao family has a city hukou and is provided with a fixed amount of food coupons every month, but Yun Yun has a rural hukou and must exchange food for it. So many times, some people have coupons but no money, and some people have money but no coupons...

Arriving at the meat stall, Chen Xiang was curious when he saw the large pieces of bright red pork that no one was interested in buying; but he soon figured out the reason.

Lean meat is relatively expensive, while fat meat is relatively cheap, and it can also be put in a pot to extract oil, so people don’t have to buy fat oil.

But Chen Xiang didn't care about these. He waved his hand and directly weighed three pounds of pork. He also specifically instructed the chef who would be responsible for cutting the meat.

"Cut me a pound of lean meat, leaving no fat, and chop it into minced meat. Cut a pound of fat, leaving no lean meat, and chop it into minced meat. Cut another pound of cartilage, leaving no meat, and chop it into minced meat."

Chen Xiang had his own plans. He would leave the lean meat for his daughter and use it to make dumplings to satisfy the little one's appetite. He would leave the fat meat for his wife. She was so thin and must have suffered a lot of grievances and was often hungry. She needed to eat more fat meat to replenish her body.

As for him, he just needs some cartilage and some calcium to make his body stronger. This fragile body is so weak that it seems that a gust of wind can blow him down.

With several bags of meat and vegetables, Chen Xiang returned home happily with a full load.

Searching the memories in his mind, Chen Xiang learned that Yun Yun worked as a waitress in a restaurant and her work was very hard every day; she had to get up before dawn, walk two miles to work, and had to wait until dark before she could go home.

Even so, Yun Yun's monthly salary was only 20 yuan. Not only did she have to maintain the family's expenses, but she was also forced by Chen Xiang to ask for money to buy alcohol all day long. She followed a bunch of bad friends to the Fengqing Street to have fun, and her life was miserable.

Chen Xiang wiped the sweat from his forehead and started to work in the kitchen. The owner of this body in the previous life was undoubtedly a scumbag and a complete loser. Now that Chen Xiang is here, he will certainly not be so decadent anymore.

He wants to cheer up and make this broken family shine again!

The meat was expertly cut and put into the pan, where it was stir-fried, making a sizzling sound. A rich aroma of meat drifted in the air, far out of the house, and was smelled by He Yue, who was hiding outside behind a locust tree.

He Yue greedily sniffed the fragrant smell of meat, and her appetite was immediately aroused; as far as she could remember, her mother never cooked meat except during festivals.

Managing a garment factory with more than 40 female workers is hard work, as the job often runs at a loss. The problem of customers defaulting on payments is extremely serious, and by the time the wages are paid at the end of the month, there is really no money left in the account. He Cui even has to swallow her pride and borrow money from relatives, friends and acquaintances to pay the wages of the female workers in the factory.

He Yue hid under a big tree, hesitating for a long time, but she still didn't dare to step into the Xiao family's courtyard. As a young girl, she couldn't just say that she was greedy and wanted to come in to eat some meat, right?

If that were really the case, wouldn't He Yue be so ashamed that she would immediately find a hole to crawl into?

But at this moment, Yun Yun came back with her daughter Shanshan, and she spotted He Yue at a glance.

"Little girl, what are you doing? Why are you here at my doorstep?" Yun Yun asked with a question mark on her face.

"I...I..." He Yue blushed and couldn't utter a word. Seeing that there was no one around, He Yue ran away in a panic.

"Could this little girl come to our house to steal things?" Yun Yun thought vigilantly, but soon she smiled bitterly and dismissed the idea.

What would anyone want from a few broken bricks and tiles and an empty pigsty? What is there to steal?
