Siheyuan: a better life

Chapter 489 Foreign goods!

When Wu Aiguo heard Li Huaide's question, he immediately realized that when Xu Damao became a full-time employee, Xu Fugui must have found Li Huaide's relationship, otherwise Li Huaide would not have known that he was able to get imported cigarettes and alcohol.

With this suspicion in his mind, Wu Aiguo teased Li Huaide in a probing tone: "Director Li! You are really good at collecting intelligence. You actually know that I have a way in this area."

When Li Huaide heard Wu Aiguo's inquiry, he introduced with a smile: "Director Wu! I am not well-informed, but what I heard from our factory's projectionist Xu Damao."

When Wu Aiguo learned the purpose of Li Huaide's call, he already guessed who revealed the news. After hearing Li Huaide's introduction, Wu Aiguo smiled and said to Li Huaide: "Director Li! I do have this channel here. But these things are not cheap.”

Regarding the price of red wine and foreign wine, Li Huaide once heard people talk about it. Faced with Wu Aiguo's reminder, Li Huaide smiled and said to Wu Aiguo: "Director Wu! Don't worry, I have already heard about the prices of these things. I mentioned it, just look at it and help me arrange it."

Wu Aiguo heard Li Huaide's words, smiled and said to Li Huaide: "Director Li! Do you want cigarettes, or red wine and foreign wine?"

Li Huaide heard Wu Aiguo's inquiry, and immediately said to Wu Aiguo: "Director Wu! How much is a bottle of red wine, how much is a bottle of foreign wine?"

Wu Aiguo heard Li Huaide's inquiry and thought of the current prices of these two wines. He smiled and introduced to Li Huaide: "Director Li! The current price of red wine on the black market is 600 yuan a bottle, and a bottle of foreign wine is even more expensive. It will cost 800 yuan.”

"We are old friends, and I won't tell you what you need. A bottle of red wine costs three hundred, and a bottle of foreign wine costs four hundred. Do you want red wine? Or foreign wine?"

As for the prices of foreign wine and red wine, Liang Dehua once sent people to the black market to find out the prices, and he also knew that these things have a price but no market on the black market.

The price quoted by Wu Aiguo made Li Huaide feel very proud, and he quickly said to Wu Aiguo: "Director Wu! I need two bottles of red wine and two bottles of foreign wine. Do you think this is okay?"

Wu Aiguo heard what Li Huaide said, and said to Li Huaide: "Director Li! When will you want these things?"

Facing Wu Aiguo's inquiry, Li Huaide immediately replied: "Director Wu! Today is the 24th of the lunar calendar, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Of course, these things should be done as soon as possible."

When Wu Aiguo heard Li Huaide's request, he thought for a while and said to Li Huaide with a smile: "Director Li! I will send your things to the rolling mill before getting off work soon."

Hearing Wu Aiguo's answer, Li Huaide thanked Wu Aiguo happily, "Director Wu! Then thank you."

"Dingling! Dingling! Dingling!"

After finishing the call with Li Huaide, Wu Aiguo put the microphone on the landline, and a rush of phone ringing immediately rang.

When Wu Aiguo heard the phone ringing, he reached out to pick up the phone and greeted politely: "Hello! I am Wu Aiguo. Who is this?"

"Who were you talking to on the phone just now? I've been calling for a long time, but your phone has been busy." As soon as Wu Aiguo's questioning voice ended, Liang Dehua's cordial questioning voice came over the phone.

Wu Aiguo heard Liang Dehua's inquiry and replied with a smile: "Dad! Just now, Deputy Director Li of the steel rolling mill asked me for help. Please call me. Is there anything you can do?"

When Liang Dehua heard Wu Aiguo's inquiry, he thought of the reason why he called Wu Aiguo, and said with a friendly face: "Aiguo! It's me. Do you have any entertainment tonight? Director Zhang of our hospital wants to treat you to a meal. "

Wu Aiguo learned the reason why Liang Dehua called him, and asked curiously: "Dad! Why did Dean Zhang invite me to dinner for no reason?"

Liang Dehua could vaguely guess the reason why Dean Zhang suddenly invited Wu Aiguo to dinner. Faced with Wu Aiguo's inquiry, Liang Dehua introduced him: "Aiguo! Dean Zhang suddenly invited you to dinner. I guess it's because I kept us with you." It’s related to the batch of supplies in the hospital’s logistics warehouse.”

When Wu Aiguo heard Liang Dehua's news to him, he had a puzzled expression on his face, and asked Liang Dehua with some dissatisfaction: "Dad! I just helped your hospital get a batch of supplies not long ago. Why is Dean Zhang staring at me again?" There are supplies in your hospital, his eating looks a bit too ugly, right?"

Hearing Wu Aiguo's words, Liang Dehua felt the dissatisfaction in Wu Aiguo's tone, and explained with embarrassment: "Patriotism! Isn't it the New Year's Eve now? Everyone will carry things to visit the leaders. At this time in previous years, the courtyard has already prepared Gifts, but this year is not good, even if you have money, you can’t buy suitable gifts, so Lao Zhang is eyeing your batch of supplies.”

Wu Aiguo heard Liang Dehua's introduction, pondered for a while, and asked Liang Dehua: "Dad! If during the meal, Dean Zhang suddenly opened his mouth like a lion, do you think I agree? Or not?"

Wu Aiguo's question immediately stumped Liang Dehua. He pondered for a moment, and then said to Wu Aiguo: "Patriotic! Your mother and I, as well as Xiao Jing, both work in the People's Hospital. If Lao Zhang's request is not too much , you just agree to his request for the sake of my mother and me, and if it's too much, you just make excuses and refuse directly."

Knowing Liang Dehua's idea, Wu Aiguo nodded in agreement and replied: "Dad! Where will Dean Zhang be scheduled for the night? I want to send Xiaojing home and then come over."

When Liang Dehua heard what Wu Aiguo said, he smiled and said to Wu Aiguo: "Aiguo! Where is the specific decision? I will let Xiaojing tell you later when you come to pick up Xiaojing."

At around four o'clock in the evening, Wu Aiguo drove to the steel rolling mill. Li Huaide, who had received a call in advance, saw Wu Aiguo's car and immediately walked forward to greet Wu Aiguo. He said warmly to Wu Aiguo: "Director Wu! Welcome! Come to our rolling mill to inspect and guide the work."

Wu Aiguo heard Li Huaide's joke, opened the back of the jeep, took out a cloth bag from the car, and said with a smile: "Director Li! We have different systems to check and guide what work."

At this point, Wu Aiguo handed the cloth bag in his hand to Li Huaide, and said with a smile, "Director Li! This is what you need. My friend also gave me a bottle opener specially used for opening red wine."

Hearing what Wu Aiguo said, Li Huaide said happily to Wu Aiguo: "Director Wu! This is not a place to talk, let's go to my office and sit for a while, and eat in the small cafeteria of our rolling mill at night."

When Wu Aiguo heard Li Huaide's words, he thought of Director Zhang's dinner and said apologetically: "Director Li! I'm really sorry. I already have an appointment tonight, so I'll skip the meal."
