Chapter 50
Although the street of Liukong Bridge is wide, it is a pedestrian street.Lu Tong parked the car at the intersection, and then called Zhou Shui.

Zhou Shui got into the car and asked Lu Tong: "Now we can talk, what's the matter?"

Lu Tong smiled a little embarrassedly: "My dad wants to see Brother Zhou, if it's inconvenient for you...?
Zhou Shui interrupted Lu Tongdao: "It's not inconvenient for uncle to see the trick. I feel a little rude for not visiting the old man early."

Hearing Zhou Shui's words, Lu Tong was a little touched: "You can do it, I have made up your friend. To tell you the truth, Brother Zhou, the words you and Director Zhang at Qinyang Hotel were neither overbearing nor humble. .Brother is really convinced. When I told my dad, he insisted on seeing you."

Zhou Shui said with a smile: "Look at you, you still come to pick me up in person. Next time you make a call, I'll be there right away. Old, old, and old, let alone a good brother."

Lu Tong nodded vigorously: "Yes, that is."

During the conversation.The car arrived at the entrance of Hanhua Company, and Hanhua's headquarters is in the western suburbs of the city.It is a six-story building, and the exterior of the building is very ordinary.But the whole building is backed by mountains and facing water, covered by ancient trees, and the Fengshui is very good.Zhou Shui couldn't help but give his thumbs up.He asked Lu Tong: "Who determined the location of your company?"

Lu Tong glanced at Zhou Shui: "What? Is there something wrong with this Feng Shui bureau?"

Zhou Shui smiled and said, "That's not what I mean. Going to a friend's house and finding fault with the mansion before entering the house, isn't that just looking for money?"

Lu Tong laughed: "What's the matter? You are too humorous. This building was designed by my father himself. Don't tell me, since the company moved in, the business has been very good. I feel strange , Take our newly developed communities as an example—when building a building, the price of building materials bottomed out. And when selling a house, it’s the market for private property speculation, and you can’t make money if you want.”

Zhou Shui didn't answer, but said in his heart: "It's a good thing, and there are both advantages and disadvantages."

Lu Tong led Zhou Shui in, and the employees greeted Lu Tong one after another.The chairman's office is on the sixth floor. Lu Tong did not push the door directly, but knocked lightly on the door a few times.Just listen to the inside say: "Please come in."

Lu Tong led Zhou Shui in. The room was a hundred and ten square meters. The first thing Zhou Shui saw was the bookcase on the north wall. A middle-aged man with gray hair was leaning over the table and writing something.

Lu Tong and Zhou Shui sat down on the sofa on the east wall, and a girl walked in gently with two glasses of water on a tray.She and Zhou Shui nodded as a greeting.After putting down the tea, the girl went out lightly again, and the room fell into a dull silence again.

Zhou Shui met Lu Tong's father, the old man's name was Lu Zhe.At the opening ceremony of Hanhua Mansion and the municipal government's Wenchuan donation appreciation meeting, Mr. Lu was standing beside the mayor.He has multiple identities, one is a well-known real estate developer in the province, the other is a member of the Provincial Political Consultative Conference, and a famous philanthropist.

In fact, Zhou Shui didn't even know Mr. Lu.First of all, Mr. Lu didn't know Zhou Shui.The second is that the source of his impression of Mr. Lu was all provided by the media, and Zhou Shui had never met him.However, Zhou Shui has always had a deep prejudice against Mr. Lu through the matter of Sister Ma. The reason why he agreed to Lu Tong to see Mr. Lu without hesitation is that Zhou Shui has his own ideas. Sister strives for a little "coffin book".The second is that Lu Tong is the person Zhou Shuite wants to make friends with.There is Zhou Shui's selfish desire in it - if you want to have a little social voice, you must have a mouth that can let the crowd listen.Zhou Shui wanted to turn Lu Tong into his mouth.And Mr. Lu's hurdle is the first hurdle to conquer Lu Tong.

If it is said that everyone's selfish desires are shady, Zhou Shui is not included here.Zhou Shui is aware of his current situation. At this moment, he has already stretched out his tentacles out of his controllable range.Part of it is voluntary, and the other part is coerced.And when it comes to the critical moment, there is only one Fang Zhuo who can pull Zhou Shui.Director Yan, father-in-law, can't do it, and neither can Zhang Kejian.Director Yan can definitely kill relatives righteously. Zhang Kejian, a future high-ranking police officer, has been trained by Director Yan to become a quasi-Baogong who will never insult his mission even if he suffers all his life.

Zhang Kejian's words in front of the small pond in Baizhai hit Zhou Shui's sore spot.As the saying goes, Zhou Shui is indeed "playing big".

Zhou Shui himself knew very well that Lu Tong and his son represented "sages in society".Able to express "folk voice".These are exactly what Zhou Shui needs.

At this time, Mr. Lu finally stopped writing.He raised his head and smiled at Zhou Shui: "I'm sorry to keep the distinguished guest waiting for a long time."

Zhou Shui hurriedly stood up, bowed deeply to Elder Lu, and said, "My nephew and Lu Tong have a good relationship. The old man is the father's wife. He is a grassroots man in the countryside. I hope the elder will forgive me."

Lu Lao stood up and motioned for Zhou Shui to follow him.Mr. Lu pushed open a secret door on the west wall, and beckoned Zhou Shui to go in.He turned his head and said to Lu Tong: "Let me chat with Xiao Zhou and inform the switchboard. Don't answer the call. You sit here for a while. If there is a customer, take him to the reception room first. If I don't come out, no matter how big the problem is." Don't bother me."

Lu Tong agreed.Elder Lu talked to Zhou Shui again: "I have heard about the great name for a long time, and I have always wanted to listen to Puritanism. I have a rare free time today. Let's have a good chat."

Zhou Shui smiled and said, "The junior listens to the elder's orders."

Entering the dark room, Zhou Shui first saw a dark brown floor-to-ceiling glass facing south. Through the glass, he could have a panoramic view of the entire courtyard. This kind of glass is one-way transparent, and people in the courtyard cannot see people in the window.

The furnishings in the small hall are extremely simple, with two sofas facing each other and a tea table in between.Lu Lao and Zhou Shui sat down, the distance between them was less than one meter across the coffee table.Zhou Shui hated this way of sitting.The close gaze can be stressful, especially in a conversation where you're at a disadvantage.Covering and evasion must have sufficient distance to cover.Otherwise, under the pressure of the other party's aura, it is easy to have confusion in thinking, especially when facing people and environments that are completely unfamiliar to you.

Mr. Lu sat heavily on the sofa, his body completely sank into it.

Zhou Shui sat very well, with his back straight and his hands on his knees.For more than ten minutes, Mr. Lu remained motionless, with his head resting on the back of the sofa.Arms resting on the arm of the sofa.Zhou Shui almost suspected that Mr. Lu had fallen asleep.

After a while, Mr. Lu finally turned his face, and for a moment, Zhou Shui was taken aback—a successful man who was still high-spirited and brilliant just now, turned into a drooping old man after ten minutes, full of The tired and helpless face.

Mr. Lu said softly, "I'm just kidding." Zhou Shui didn't reply, he looked into Mr. Lu's eyes. Strangely, Mr. Lu seemed a little flustered by Zhou Shui's eyes.

Zhou Shui encouraged Mr. Lu with a smile and let him relax.After a while, Elder Lu asked softly, "What's your relationship with Sister Ma?"

Zhou Shui said: "In my most difficult time, Sister Ma helped me. It can be said that without Sister Ma's help, I couldn't gain a foothold in Qinyang, and you won't be able to see me today."

Mr. Lu nodded: "Yes, it is a traditional virtue to repay the kindness of being offered water with a fountain." Mr. Lu paused for a while, as if hesitating, whether or not to say something.

Zhou Shui encouraged Mr. Lu: "Old man, we are the only ones in this room. If you have something to say, you should say it. Isn't there such a saying that you can say it quickly..."

Mr. Lu waved his hand to interrupt Zhou Shui: "Since you are invited here, you must always make it clear."

Lu Lao was quiet for a while, then said: "I heard that Sister Ma committed suicide and was saved by you?"

Zhou Shui said very simply: "Yes, if it is a few minutes later, Sister Ma will be gone."

Old Lu nodded, sighed and said, "Oh, I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me."

Zhou Shui also sighed softly: "You can cultivate your own blessings and misfortunes, and you can't blame others."

Elder Lu said, "I heard that Sister Ma lives in your house? How is she doing?"

Zhou Shui replied: "She has a big heart, and she can bear it. But she is old, it is impossible to start over, and living with me is not a long-term solution. She has a shop, and she opened a clinic in partnership with others. It's being renovated. Let's see if it works, if the benefits are good, buy a small house for the elderly."

Elder Lu nodded: "Yes, it would have been nice to have such a heart, and it wouldn't be so far."

Hearing Mr. Lu say this, Zhou Shui felt a sense of unhappiness in his heart, and said, "You've done everything, and you're not a gentleman if you say such sarcastic remarks."
