“Qin Yu! How can you say that?” He sounded somewhat flustered, but his confidence was clearly wavering. “My mom was just saying that out of anger; don’t take it seriously! As for your dad…”
“I can handle my dad myself,” I replied coolly. “Lu Jianjun, I’ll say this one last time. There can only be one mistress in this house. Bai Ling should not come over as often. And please keep your mother in check. If something like today happens again, then we really won’t have anything to discuss.”
With that, I turned away from him and walked straight into the inner room, shutting the door behind me.
I left Lu Jianjun standing outside, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.
I knew that in this confrontation, I had temporarily gained the upper hand. I had found his weakness, making him hesitate to act recklessly.
But this was only temporary. To completely rid myself of them, I needed to grow stronger quickly and gain my own confidence!
My confidence came from my foresight of the future and from this era of great change that was unfolding!
In the 1980s, the winds of reform and opening up had begun to blow. Although remote military units were still relatively isolated, the seeds of opportunity had already been sown. In my previous life, I had been trapped in family disputes and romantic entanglements, missing out on this golden era. This time, I would not let it slip away!
I needed to make money! A lot of money! Once I had enough capital and strength, I would kick Lu Jianjun, that scumbag, out of my life and live well with my parents!
So where should I start?
I recalled the abandoned vegetable patch behind the Military Family Compound and… the pig offal that was often wasted in the mess hall.
A bold idea began to brew in my mind.
In the 1980s military units, although the food standards were somewhat better than those in civilian life, they were still far from lavish. Especially in these remote mountain troops where supplies were relatively scarce; soldiers trained year-round and had high meat consumption needs. However, pork was supplied in limited quantities, making it difficult to eat freely. As for pig offal—like pig liver, lungs, and intestines—due to their troublesome preparation and strong odor, military mess halls usually didn’t cook them; they either sold them cheaply to nearby villagers or simply discarded them.
This was a complete waste!
In my previous life, my cooking skills were mediocre, and I never paid attention to such things. But now that I had returned with memories of decades into the future, I knew that these pig offals despised in the 1980s could be transformed into mouthwatering delicacies if handled properly and cooked well! Dishes like braised intestines, stir-fried kidneys, and spicy lung slices…
What’s more important was that they were extremely low-cost!
Let’s get started!
I first sought out Manager Wang, who was responsible for logistics procurement. Manager Wang was a kind-looking middle-aged man who had some old ties with my father and treated me fairly well.
“Uncle Wang, I’d like to ask you something,” I got straight to the point. “What happens to those pig offals that our mess hall doesn’t use?”
Manager Wang paused for a moment. “Pig offals? Those things are quite smelly; no one wants them. Usually, they’re either fed to pigs or taken by people from nearby villages for a small fee.”
“Well… how about this?” I gathered my courage. “Could you sell all those pig offals to me from now on? I’ll pay market price—guaranteed higher than what you give to the villagers.”
“What do you want those for?” Manager Wang looked at me in surprise. “Those things are hard to deal with and smell quite strong.”
“Uncle Wang, I have my own uses for them,” I said with a mysterious smile. “Just tell me if it’s possible or not; it would also be an extra income for the unit.”
