The booming era begins with private customization

Chapter 466. Lao Xu, I want to buy land, a lot of land!
"Silly Zhu? What is he doing here?"

Li Mao frowned, feeling somewhat unhappy.

Then he thought of Qin Huairu, and the action he had prepared suddenly slowed down: "Let someone wait in the security department.

Let’s go and ask where Qin Huairu went just now.”

Listening to Li Mao's order, Lou Xiao'e nodded without asking too many questions.

Enough has happened today.

Even if there was an extra idiot, Lou Xiao'e would not be surprised.

Not long after, Lou Xiao'e came back, knocked on the door and entered the office, clearly reporting Qin Huairu's movements.

The machinery factory is not small in size, but there are also many workers.

There is only one entrance and exit.

"Director, Qin Huairu just left the factory. She said something happened at home and she had to look after the children."

Lou Xiao'e had no expression on her face and reported in a very serious manner.

The white polka-dot dress looks special despite her not-so-short height.

Li Mao’s proposal was also to allow the factory jointly run by the machinery factory and the street to develop.

The summer clothing that was approved on a special basis was very popular among male and female workers in the factory.

Men's and women's ready-made clothes that are different from work clothes but more fashionable than those sold in department stores.

It became a trend in the city as soon as it was released.

Many factories with a large number of female workers could not bear the workers' petitions and were not allowed to use their slush funds, so they opened the loopholes in distributing uniforms.

For a while, the factory jointly run by the machinery factory and the street office was so busy that it couldn't stop.

"No one came back?"

Li Mao had a gloomy face and felt a little unhappy.

"I haven't come back yet." Lou Xiao'e still didn't say anything extra, just replied calmly.

"Oh, interesting, really interesting."

Li Mao smiled instead of getting angry. He sat on the chair, folded his hands in front of him, covering the lower half of his face: "They are treating our machinery factory as a soft persimmon."

Lou Xiao'e didn't say anything, she looked at her nose with her eyes and her heart with her mouth.

After a few seconds of silence, Li Mao put down his arm and glanced at Lou Xiaoe: "Let Yu Shui go and ask what Sha Zhu wants to do.

You stay by my side. If Sha Zhu doesn’t understand what I mean, let Yan Bugui explain it to Sha Zhu.”

"Okay, director."

Lou Xiao'e turned around and had already stepped out of the office threshold, but suddenly turned back.

He looked at Li Mao with some worry, but couldn't help but comfort him: "Director, there's no need to be angry about such a small matter.

In my opinion, if it really doesn't work, I will arrange Qin Huairu to work in the factory on the street.

The people over there are all very upright, and with Director Wang watching over her from time to time, I don't think Qin Huairu will be able to cause any trouble."

Li Mao did not reply, but instead began to think about the feasibility of this proposal.

After thinking it over, I decided to let He Yushui go and see what was going on.

If it was really as tactless as he understood, the machinery factory could fire individual workers.

"Let the rain ask first."

This time, Lou Xiao'e did not dissuade her again.

Half an hour later, Lou Xiao'e came to the office with He Yushui, who looked bitter.

Looking at Li Mao, the grievances in his heart suddenly burst out.

"Brother Li Mao"

He Yushui's eyes were red, and she held Li Mao's arm sobbingly, cushioning the soft spot, and the touch was completely different.

"Something happened?"

Without asking He Yushui, Li Mao set his sights on Lou Xiaoe.

"Well, there have been some changes."

Lou Xiao'e took a deep breath and glanced at He Yushui who was holding Li Mao in a wronged manner. It was hard to tell whether it was envy or something else in her eyes: "Shazhu said that Qin Huairu agreed to marry him, and would go to the hospital to remove the IUD in a while, and give birth to a big fat boy for Shazhu to carry on the family line."

To sum up, it is brief, clear and concise.

"Oh, that's interesting. Qin Huairu is really willing to risk everything for this job."

Li Mao nodded, his face paused, and he immediately understood what made He Yushui feel wronged.

Although I have a letter of severance in my hand.

But if Sha Zhu shamelessly asks for help, it will involve the continuation of the He family's bloodline.

He Yushui really didn't know what to say.

Times are progressing.

But in the eyes of quite a few people, only boys can carry on the family line.

Although He Yunong is also a boy, he and He Yushui do not have the same mother.

"Brother Li Mao"

He Yushui raised her head, tears welling up in her red eyes.

Although he didn't say anything, just by watching, Li Mao more or less understood what He Yushui meant.

"Didn't Zhang Meng also give birth to a child?"

Li Mao whispered to comfort her, but he just moved his mouth and didn't make any other movements.

"It's different. The child from Zhang Meng's family doesn't have the last name He."

He Yushui lowered her head. Knowing that she was causing trouble for Li Mao, she did not dare to look up and meet Li Mao's eyes.

Mingming has been enjoying the favors given by Li Mao all along.

But unfortunately, I can't stand on the same side with Li Mao at this time.

She pursed her lips, raised her pretty face which was becoming more and more beautiful, sniffed, and whispered in Li Mao's ear.

"It's just a child, is it that serious?"

Li Mao paused, looked at He Yushui's blushing face, and shook his head slowly.

He Yushui's voice originally sounded like that of a mature woman, but because she was too shy, it sounded even softer and more delicate. She still didn't dare to look up, but only answered in a shallow voice, "Anyway, I never thought of leaving before."

Li Mao couldn't help laughing, and smoothed He Yushui's ponytail. The touch of smooth hair was addictive: "Go and discuss it with Sha Zhu. If you agree, sign a document.

It was pointed out that Sha Zhu’s first son was the heir and could not be raised with Sha Zhu.

By leaving behind this spark, you have done your duty to your father."

"Hey, thank you, brother Li Mao. I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

Even though Li Mao had already agreed, He Yushui's face still did not show even a trace of joy. Her face was still filled with an intense and unremovable sadness.

But when I thought about what I just said, about having a child for Li Mao.

He Yushui's face turned red again with embarrassment.

"Trouble? There is no trouble, it's just to keep the job. Who said Qin Huairu can't be transferred to another place?"

Seeing the girl's melancholy expression, Li Mao slowly said, "Didn't Sha Zhu say that? It's just to keep the job.

Qin Huairu definitely couldn't stay in the machinery factory, so she was sent to the factory jointly run by the street office.

After two years when the He family's roots are passed down, I will have Qin Huairu sent back to Qinjiagou to work as a cook in the Hope Primary School run by our factory.

If Sha Zhu is willing to go, let him negotiate with the steel mill himself.

If you don't want to, then wait until he has a rest before thinking about reuniting with Qin Huairu."

When He Yushui heard Li Mao's words, his eyes lit up.

Repaying kindness with kindness?
That's something a crazy person would do.

He Yushui herself disliked Qin Huairu.

If Sha Zhu hadn't identified Qin Huairu, He Yushui would have used his identity to cause trouble for Qin Huairu long ago.

As for being pitiful?
Isn’t it pitiful that the He family has been sucked dry by the Jia family?
Even if Sha Zhu doesn't think it's a big deal, the things he paid for are objectively real. "Go back to Qinjiagou? That's a good idea! Oh, by the way, we have to make an agreement with my silly brother later! If Qin Huairu doesn't get pregnant within a year, then we'll just pretend there's no agreement!
Even if we are married, we still have to deal with it the same way!"

Following this line of thinking, He Yushui also realized a way to make Qin Huairu feel painful.

For a woman who has finally married into the city.

The greatest pain was to drive her back to the countryside again!
After all, Qinjiagou is Qin Huairu’s mother’s home, so there won’t be any problem even if she is driven back.

"Then be careful and don't let anything slip."

Li Mao nodded and did not refute anything.

The only thing is, Qin Huairu, you can't continue to stay in the machinery factory.

"Director, isn't this a bit too harsh? The ones who made the mistake were Jia Dongxu and Bang Geng, not her, Qin Huairu.

Just transfer away.

Go back to the countryside? I'm worried that she might become depressed. "

Lou Xiao'e bit her lower lip, hesitated for a long time, and finally said these words.

"One is her husband, and the other is her son. It's hard to say whether Qin Huairu used the things Jia Dongxu stole and sold. Many of the things Banggeng did were also Qin Huairu's responsibility.

Not breaking the law does not mean that you will not be condemned.

After enjoying the harvest, you have to take responsibility. Besides, our machinery factory did not kill everyone.

If Qin Huairu had been more sensible at the beginning, at most she would have been transferred to another position.

The machinery factory still has some dignity, and I, Li Mao, also have some dignity."

When talking about face, Li Mao's emotions were inevitably a little self-deprecating.

You are still too shameless.

If it was Li Huaide next door, Qin Huairu might have been taken advantage of and had to count the money.

But there was nothing that could be done, as small group thinking was prevalent, and if the neighbors in a courtyard were too harsh, their reputations could easily be ruined.

Some things that are neither big nor small and can be ignored can easily be covered up by this kind of neighborhood friendship.

Qin Huairu’s matter was settled.

As expected, when He Yushui asked him to get pregnant within a year, Sha Zhu agreed without even thinking about it.

In Sha Zhu's words, now that you have married a wife, what's the point of not having children?

You can't just put it at home to look good and do some housework at the same time, right?
In terms of good looks, Qin Huairu is just average now.

When he was working and hadn't married, Sha Zhu didn't realize how messy his house was.

As for the children?
Anyway, they were all his He family's children, so Sha Zhu thought it would be easier to put them with He Yushui.

One child is given to you, and two children are also given as gifts.

Anyway, Shazhu was ready to cultivate Qin Huairu well, she was just a child, and he didn't take her seriously at all.

Sha Zhu's wedding started after Qin Huairu was transferred to the joint venture factory.

Sha Zhu wanted to hold a grand wedding, but gave up the idea after Yi Zhonghai's earnest persuasion.

There were only two tables set up in the central courtyard, and quite a few people were invited.

However, no one from the machinery factory went.

Even the Zhou family, who lived in the same courtyard and also worked at the steel rolling mill, did not have anyone show up for the banquet.

In particular, Yan Jiecheng, who lived in the former Jia family's house, spent a huge amount of money to buy a roast duck from Bianyifang when Sha Zhu got married. He specially moved the table to the door of the house, and smacked his lips as he ate the roast duck happily while watching the scene where Sha Zhu's two tables were not full.

While eating, he made smacking sounds.

If Qin Huairu hadn't stopped him, Sha Zhu would have had to take action on their wedding day.

With Sha Zhu's marriage, life in Siheyuan became a little more stable.

Without Qin Huairu from the machinery factory, the workers' dissatisfaction also subsided.

The work at the joint factory was busy day after day, and Qin Huairu was too tired to cooperate with Sha Zhu.

Days go by.

In the blink of an eye, September is here.

The sudden flames burned the southwest sky red.

The sound of the charge horn blared in every dive.

The white elephant pounced forward, and was beaten with bruises all over his head. The white elephant cried and said that it was four against thirty, so even if he won, it was not a great achievement!
White elephants have their own national conditions.

If you don’t break the capital, you don’t lose!
In October, the flames grew even higher.

Mecha weapons were deployed to the front line for the first time.

They were so powerful that at one point, because the opponent was too weak to fight back, they often created the myth of one class driving back countless people.

November.

By chance, due to communication problems, some rabbits did not receive the stop order.

If you are not careful, you can drive more than ten times the number of white elephants back into a certain capital city.

The White Elephant panicked, and the seven nations mediated.

During the mediation, Li Mao approached Lao Xu for the first time in a long time and proposed his own deal: "What?! You want to buy those lands?"

Old Xu, who now has the demeanor of a top leader, looked at Li Mao who said this, moved his hands, and almost pulled out two newly emerged stubbles.

"What? We've captured it, so why can't we sell it?"

Li Mao took a sip of tea, and the confidence he had just displayed a second ago suddenly became twisted.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

After being used to drinking the top-quality stuff sold outside from my hometown, I can only taste the shortcomings when drinking Lao Xu's portion.

"Hey? You kid! If you don't like it, don't drink! We have known each other for so many years, so we can be considered friends regardless of age, right?

You said to me, kid, you have some good stuff but you don’t even give me some.

I don't dare to accept other people's things, but how can I not dare to accept your things?"

Seeing Li Mao's slightly frowned brows, Old Xu's face drooped suddenly.

At this age, he still holds a high position.

He has always been envied by others and rarely criticized.

"Oh, what do you mean? What others give is considered a bribe, but what I give is not considered a bribe?"

Li Mao put down the porcelain cup in his hand and joked with interest.

“It’s a lot of trouble and effort for others to send you gifts.

No matter how much you give as a gift, it will be just a drop in the bucket.

The proportion is here. Even if I accept it, who can say that you are asking me to do something for you?

Besides, even if outsiders don’t know, how could we not know?

Now it's not you who is begging me, but me who is begging you. I'm begging you to find a way to sell our products and earn more foreign exchange.

If I touch you, apart from anything else, the shipyard and those old friends who are eager for their own warships will have to bring people to my house overnight and have a candlelight talk with me.

What if I touch you? What about the boat?
Without you, a sucker, it would be hard for us to accumulate production experience!"

Old Xu also started joking, and his words and actions showed that he did not treat Li Mao as an ordinary subordinate at all.

"According to what you said, I can still act arrogantly here, Old Xu? To put it bluntly, if I want to take advantage of you and order a dish from you, will this be allowed?
Or are you, Old Xu, just saying this for show, and in reality you don't even give me the courtesy to order food?"

Li Mao shook his neck and actually took out a box of packaged tea from his bag.

Just by looking at the packaging, Lao Xu knew that it was a premium product used to earn foreign exchange!
"Order! Just as I said! Just order whatever you want to eat today! If my chef is not authentic, I will borrow someone from another courtyard for you!
I'm going to make sure you have a good meal today!"

Looking at the tea leaves pushed by Li Mao, Old Xu's eyes sparkled and he joked, then suddenly changed his tone: "But Li Mao, some things don't seem like a dinner invitation. You have to talk to me about something as big as buying land.

Although the land over there is in our hands now, we all know it.

We can take it down, but we can't hold on to it for long now.

Without the big mushroom, our backbone will always be a little weaker."
