Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 872, Chatting

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, He Yuzhu asked, "By the way, Brother Li, I remember there was a rumor that the superiors were going to promote you to secretary? Why did you resign later?"

"Zhu Zi, you don't understand this!" Li Huaide said with a self-deprecating smile. He had no choice but to take a step back and be shattered to pieces. It was a great blessing that he could land safely now.

After hearing what Li Huaide said, He Yuzhu was confused. To be honest, he couldn't figure out those things with his brain capacity. However, one good thing about him was that he was open-minded. If he couldn't figure it out, he wouldn't think about it. Anyway, there were tall people to hold up the sky if it fell. After thinking about it for a while, he still couldn't figure it out, so he continued to ask curiously.

"That's not right! Brother Li, didn't you protect a group of people at that time? You didn't kill all the others. The most important thing is that under your leadership, the steel mill has developed very well. The higher-ups have praised you. Logically, you should have no problem getting promoted. After all, you have done so many things. This is unreasonable!"

Hearing He Yuzhu defending him, Li Huaide was very happy. He handed He Yuzhu a cigarette. Several people were puffing away at him. Only then did Li Huaide speak.

"It seems that Zhuzi, you are really not suitable for politics! Even if I am promoted to secretary, my political career in this life will be over. I will only be half a level higher than I am now. What's more, I am now retired and have all the benefits I deserve. Even if I do nothing, I can still live a very comfortable life." Li Huaide smiled proudly when he said this.

"Brother Li, didn't you protect a group of people at that time? At that time, I heard that you, Old Taishan, had been reinstated. You didn't need such a great help."

"Yes! That's why they were promoted to secretary! They did speak up for me, but how many years can they help me? Two years or three years? Favors are limited, and once they're used up, they're gone. And I tell you, Zhuzi, human hearts are the most unpredictable. Do you believe that in two or three years, when they are in high positions and enjoy unlimited glory, they will think of that humiliating past and come back to punish me? I'm an outlier among them!"

"Ah! How can you be like this? You are such an ungrateful person. After all, you saved them. This is a life-saving favor."

It's not that serious, Li Huaide smiled and waved his hands. "After Gao Qiu rose to power, the first thing he dealt with was the group of bad friends who followed him and treated him as brothers. It's the same with people. I looked so glorious in those ten years, but I was also very cautious and treading on thin ice! Besides, the steel mill is a mess. Apart from Old Yang who foolishly rushed to take over, who would be willing to take it over?"

He Yuzhu looked at him suspiciously

"Zhu Zi, I managed to run the steel mill well, one reason was the help of General Manager Jiang, another reason was my connections, and most importantly, I provided good benefits to the workers! Other factories were losing money, but ours was profitable. When I left, the steel mill was even breaking even."

"why?"

"Why? That's a good question! Haha! But I can't tell you that, it would offend people. It's better for you not to know."

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me! I'm just a cook, and I don't mean anything else by listening to it."

Li Huaide didn't have any other thoughts after hearing He Yuzhu's words, but he continued speaking anyway.

"I don't take those narrow-minded people seriously. The main reason is that my father-in-law has been reinstated and my children are all arranged. I can't hold them back! After all, I still have a stain. Besides, those senior executives will help them because I once helped them. With my father-in-law around, their future is brighter than mine."

"Alas! After all, it's all for the sake of the children. Poor parents in the world." After hearing what Li Huaide said, He Yuzhu understood a little. "So, what have you been busy with in the past few years, Brother Li?" He Yuzhu quickly changed the subject.

"This is reform and opening up, and I have to adapt to the trend, so I went into the industry! After my father-in-law was rehabilitated, I divorced him, and the child went to my wife. I drew a clear line between us. I just wanted to make more money in the next few years and enjoy myself, and then others would use their children to ask for money."

"Brother Li! I've learned my lesson. This table is mine. From now on, this is our own restaurant, so you can come whenever you want! I've reserved a few private rooms on the second and third floors for our use. When the time comes, just come directly and I'll make the arrangements."

"Then I would like to thank Zhuzi. But Zhuzi! I have money, I paid for the meal. Besides, you don't make money! If there are a few people like me in such a big pool, we will definitely be eaten up. Besides, we have been together for more than one or two years. When did I, Li Huaide, take advantage of such a thing? We are all friends, and we should not say so much!"

At the end of the conversation, He Yuzhu and Li Huaide went downstairs together. He Yuzhu took out a card at the front desk. It was a discount card for 8% off. He gave it only to the leaders he invited on the first day. There was also a phone number on it.

"Brother Li, this is my gift, I can't refuse. Please take care of your business in the future."

"Okay! Zhuzi, I'll take it. Don't worry, we are family."

At the same time, in the United States, in a single-family villa in a community close to MIT, Jiang Zihan was excitedly talking on the phone with Lao Pu and the group of rich second-generations. After half a year of hard work, the car he designed was finally finished, and there were two of them.

Actually! Jiang Zihan was able to design his own car so quickly, which was inseparable from the help of these second-generations. After all, these second-generations of Eagle Sauce were rich people. In Eagle Sauce, as long as you have money, you can buy good things, basically with a clear price tag. So Jiang Zihan has basically seen all the mainstream cars. He doesn't know the principles of some cars, which he also told these second-generations. These second-generations are all people with great hands and eyes. For their own stimulation, they support Jiang Zihan's modification without reservation, and got a lot of maintenance manuals and some drawings of the car's interior. So Jiang Zihan has basically understood these cars, and Jiang Zihan has sorted out the principles and data. In the past six months, he has repeatedly experimented at all costs and finally succeeded.

If he didn't succeed, there would be no other way. First of all, his wallet couldn't hold on any longer. So once he had designed it, he couldn't wait to contact these second-generations. He had to pay back some money. He still had a lot of things to do later! Besides, these second-generations looked like they were just waiting to die, but they were still very powerful. If he didn't fix them, he wouldn't be able to get anything good.

The day after he received Jiang Zihan's call, a group of people came to his yard. Lao Pu was still dressed in a suit and tie, completely different from the outfit of those rich second-generations. They were all looking at the two cars at the door with anticipation.

"Man, you are the one. This car is awesome." A second-generation guy said and gave Jiang Yan a thumbs up.

“Oh my God, I swear, this is the best car I’ve ever seen.”

"I can't wait to try it out. This car is so good."

"If I drive a car like this on the street, it will definitely attract a lot of attention. I am intoxicated by the looks of those beautiful women."
