Rebirth 1980: Marrying my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 247 Meet Jiang Longcheng again

Arriving at this row of houses, Li Yi found that the house was not in bad condition, but it had obviously not been taken care of for a while.

The glass on the windows was quite damaged and no one had replaced it.

There were even a lot of ollies in front of the house, but no one cleaned them up. It had obviously been abandoned for some time.

Because there was a lock on the door, Li Yi could only look into the room through the glass.

To his delight, the room looked like a place for selling things. There were shelves with some ironware on them, and he didn't know what they were used for.

In addition, the area of ​​the house is quite large, with no less than two to three hundred square meters visible, and it has been simply decorated.

To be honest, after seeing this house, Li Yi's mind suddenly became active.

This house is really suitable for catering. It has a large area and faces the street. The most important thing is that there is a large open space in front, suitable for parking.

In summer, if you set it up a little, you can also set up a small barbecue.

More importantly, the hard furnishings of the house have been completed, and the soft furnishings only need to be detailed and all the dining utensils returned before the business can be opened.

It fits Li Yi’s requirements so well!
At that moment, Li Yi started walking along the row of houses, looking for which unit this house belonged to.

The reason why he said this was because he saw that the row of houses were connected to high walls on both sides, extending to the north and south, and there were even taller factories behind them. He knew at a glance that it was not private property.

After walking half a circle around the house, Li Yi and others finally found the main entrance of the factory.

Seeing the wooden sign at the door that clearly read "Beijing State-owned Ninth Casting Factory", Li Yi finally remembered that this was the first large state-owned factory to close down in Beiguan Village in a few years!

This factory mainly produces cast iron parts, including sewer pipes, iron stoves and the like. If there were planned orders before, it would be able to survive.

However, as policies changed, the factory received fewer and fewer orders, and in five or six years it would be completely unsustainable.

Coupled with the large number of workers in such labor-intensive factories, it is obviously not feasible to rely solely on government blood transfusions to survive.

With no choice but to go bankrupt and liquidate, it became the first batch of state-owned enterprises to go bankrupt in Beiguancun and even the capital, which caused quite a stir that year.

Li Yizhen didn't expect that the row of houses he was interested in belonged to a foundry, so he was quite lucky.

After all, the current situation of the foundry is not good, and these houses seem to have been vacant for a while. By renting them at their own expense, they can make more money.

Normally, they wouldn't refuse such a good thing.

Thinking of this, Li Yi immediately asked Shitou and the others to stay outside the door, while he took Dongzi towards the foundry!
As soon as they reached the door, they were stopped by a middle-aged man on duty.

"Wait, which unit are you from, and who are you here to see?"

Li Yi immediately stepped forward and said: "Hello, comrade, we would like to know whether the row of houses in the southeast of your factory is for rent?"

"Rent a house? Today is something new. Someone actually rented a house in our foundry!"

Then the other party said to Li Yi: "Our casting factory has been established for decades, and we have never rented a house to anyone else. You'd better go somewhere else!"

Li Yi frowned and said: "Comrade, can you inform me and your relevant person in charge that I am not renting one or two rooms, which is also good for your factory!"

"I told you that the houses in our factory are not available for rent, so you should leave immediately!"

Seeing that this guy was out of touch, Li Yi couldn't help but said: "Comrade, you should at least respond to the leaders above about this kind of thing. How can you make the decision yourself?"

"How come you can't understand human speech? If I tell you whether I want to rent something or not, you're not done yet. Get out now or I'll call someone else!" the middle-aged man said impatiently.

Seeing that this guy was determined not to cooperate, Li Yi knew that it was useless to continue to pester him, so he immediately snorted and left with Dongzi.

There's nothing much to say to him as a janitor. You have to talk to their factory director or other person in charge for this kind of thing.However, Li Yi didn't know who the director of the casting factory was, so he had to find a way to find out.

In addition, the row of houses also inspired Li Yi a lot. He is engaged in new-style catering. There is no need to find those traditional shops. Warehouses facing the street like this are all fine.

At worst, it won't cost much to remodel it when the time comes.

After rejoining Shitou and others, Li Yi took everyone to a state-owned restaurant not far away for lunch.

Just as he entered the door, Li Yi saw a familiar figure!

Jiang Longcheng was in a bad mood today. He was scolded by his father after he went back yesterday.

The reason is that his cousin was promoted from deputy director of an office of a certain ministry to director, and his administrative level was raised one level.

The 25-year-old director of the department is equivalent to a county magistrate position in the local area. It can be said that he has a bright future.

For this reason, the old man praised his cousin very much, which made his father feel unbalanced.

After returning home, they scolded him like crazy, saying that as a descendant of the Jiang family, he didn't want to make progress and was just waiting to die in a small broken factory. It was a shame.

Although he has become accustomed to this over the years, hearing these words still made him very irritated, and he was not in a good mood today.

Therefore, after get off work at noon, I asked Xiaoye Jianhua to go out for a drink to relieve his boredom.

Just after taking a few sips, I looked up and saw Li Yi who had just walked in!
Jiang Longcheng recognized at a glance that this was the boy who cursed his life last night!

Thinking of what Xiao Zhou Jianguo said yesterday, Jiang Longcheng couldn't help but feel angry.

Coupled with the fact that he had just drank two glasses of wine, he could no longer suppress his anger.

At that moment, he stood up directly and walked towards Li Yi.

After coming to Li Yi, Jiang Longcheng said coldly: "Yesterday, Lao Zhou said that your kid was plotting against me. I didn't quite believe it. Now it seems that the kid has really guessed it. Tell me, who are you? , What are your intentions in following me!"

"Conspiracy? To you?"

Li Yi smiled and continued: "They say that if a dog bites Lu Dongbin, it doesn't know a good heart. Today I have seen it!"

"You call me a dog?"

"Okay, don't look so bitter and resentful. Don't you want to know who I am? Give you a chance!" Li Yi said lightly.

"What chance?"

"Of course it's a chance to get to know me!"

"???"

"Invite our brothers to a meal and let's chat by the way!" Li Yi said.

"Hahaha, that's interesting, you are so interesting!"

Then Jiang Longcheng looked at Li Yi and said: "This is the first time someone dares to ask me to treat you like this. Depending on your courage, it's okay to treat you to a meal. It's just that if your answer doesn't satisfy me, there will be consequences."

However, before Jiang Longcheng could say these cruel words, Li Yi interrupted him directly.

"Okay, put away your tricks, it's of no use to me!"

After saying that, Li Yi took Dongzi and others to the table where Jiang Longcheng and others were sitting, and then sat down under Ye Longcheng's stunned eyes.
