Chapter 947: Gu Yundong’s Speech
Editor: Henyee Translations
“First of all, I want to thank everyone here for working diligently over the past year. Many things have happened. When the prefectural city opened for business, there was a shortage of stock. It was everyone who worked overtime to meet the demand. Manager Tong was assassinated and remained unconscious for a long time. It was also everyone who did their job in an orderly manner.”
Gu Yundong did not expect that one day, she would stand in front of everybody and say such… emotional words like a leader.
However, these people had really moved her.
They were hardworking, simple, passionate, and motivated. They were really a very cute group of people.
Hence, whether it was the annual party or feast, she felt that they deserved it.
“Whether it’s the Gu Family’s workshop or the orchard, it’s the result of everyone’s joint efforts. In the past year, the workshop has increased from 50 to 100 people, the orchard has increased from 80 acres to 180 acres, and the shop has been opened from the county city to the prefectural city. All of this couldn’t have been done without everyone present. You have all contributed. You’re very good.”
Someone couldn’t help but whimper. “Boss, don’t say that. You’ve helped us even more. You gave us such a high salary. If we don’t work hard, will we still be human?”
“That’s right, Boss. If it weren’t for you, my house would still be a straw hut. I wouldn’t even have a warm bed.”
“That’s right. If I didn’t work at the Gu Family’s workshop, I wouldn’t have been able to get a wife.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Since I’m working here, my daughter’s dowry has been gathered.”
Boss Gu was too good. In the past, when they worked outside, no one had affirmed their work like this. Not to mention thanking them, it was already good enough if they were paid in time.
At this moment, they were actually thanked by their boss. They felt as if they had eaten honey.
Gu Dajiang looked at his daughter with inparable pride.
He felt warm inside. Yundong was too outstanding.
Gu Yundong was stunned to see them crying. Then, she laughed. “Alright, I won’t say anything else. I know that everyone is waiting for a feast. Serve the dishes.”
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers.
Immediately after, someone brought the food over.
In the countryside, the dishes were all served in big pots and bowls.
The Gu family’s feast was a real feast. Most of them were meat.
As soon as the food was served, the workers pounced on it like wolves and tigers. Each of them picked up two pieces of meat, and the bottom was quickly revealed.
On the other hand, Gu Yundong’s table was much more refined.
Gu Dajiang drank with Chen Liang. Both of them were slow-witted. They could drink for a long time after filling a glass.
Bian Han’s leg was still injured and he couldn’t drink, so he chatted with him.
Madam Yang and Gu Yunke were the happiest. They loved this kind of liveliness the most.
When they were almost done eating and there were only two or three dishes left, Gu Yundong stood up and walked forward.
Everyone’s stomachs were already full and their movements had slowed down. Hence, most of them saw Gu Yundong’s actions and found it strange.
“Is it time to deliver the New Year goods?”
“I saw it just now. Two large carts were pushed in. Unfortunately, there was a cloth covering it, so I couldn’t see what was inside.”
“In any case, there’s definitely meat. Manager Tong brought back a lot of pork this morning.”
“I heard that there was meat and cloth last year. There are so many people this year. I wonder if there are more.”
