The Era of Hard Work

  Chapter 419

  In these years, the speed of information transmission is relatively slow, unlike what happened just over a decade later, as long as it is seen or photographed, it may be seen by people all over the country within ten minutes.

In the Lu's hot pot restaurant, there was a tall man in a white shirt and a red tie, who looked like an elite white-collar worker in the city. He looked at Wei Juan, the person in charge of the restaurant, and said, "Why are you ignorant? All good things go out the door. Push? It's a waste of people's good intentions, do you know how tired I am from this trip?"

Wei Juan is an old employee of Lu's Catering. She has received training from Lu Dong many times. She is influenced by Lu Dong to a certain extent, and she speaks neither humbly nor arrogantly: "On behalf of Lu's Hotpot, thank you for your kindness, but our Lu's Hotpot has sufficient funds and does not need a loan for the time being. ."

  The tall man looked at the big shop with nearly 300 square meters and high-end decoration. He thought that it was not because of your strength that we could take the initiative to come to the door to lend money?

"Do you know that many people are begging us to lend money, but we won't give it!" The tall man glanced at Wei Juan's store manager's badge and said, "Don't be long-winded, just ask your boss to come out, you won't take any money, no clever!"

  Wei Juan tried his best to deal with it: "I'm sorry, the boss is out, just tell me if you have something to say."

  The tall man said again: "The quota of 200,000 yuan, half a year." He handed a document to Wei Juan: "Let your boss go to our company to handle it."

  Wei Juan saw the name of the financial company on the document, but did not intend to accept it.

  According to the statement here, the next thing you want is to get a loan.

  Some things just don’t make sense.

   Those who can come to stand on their own are all mature people. Before coming to Pingcheng, the company specially trained them and reminded Pingcheng of some special situations, such as financial companies everywhere, also known as loan sharks.

   Is there any financial company that will give the loan for free? This is clearly a 200,000 loan shark! The simplest and most basic calculation is that nine out of three returns, how much is the interest alone?

  The tall man loosened his red tie, waited for the younger brothers to take two steps forward, and stopped pretending: "You don't know what's wrong! Treat your good intentions as a donkey's liver and lungs! Believe it or not, this store won't go on!"

  Wei Juan still smiled: "Our store is not short of funds for the time being, and we will come to you if we need it."

   Who came to cut the ribbon yesterday, of course she knew, so she was trying to delay it as much as possible.

  The door of the store opened from the outside at this time, and five or six men came in from the outside. The tall man looked back and saw the man at the head, his face unconsciously changed into a smile.

   Wei Yong came in and saw what was going on. After all, Weiqiao also had a financial company, but it was much more restrained, unlike some private companies that forced money out.

  To do this business, you must have a wink, and you have to know which local people can be provoked, who can’t be provoked, and who will be bad luck if they are provoked.

  The tall man dared to play tricks with the foreign restaurant, but when he saw Wei Yong, he felt that he was five points short: "Wei...Mr. Wei, early."

Wei Yong didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "This is the store opened by my brother." He pointed to Lv Dong and Du Xiaobing: "Remember them, my two brothers and their company, if this kind of thing happens again, I'll find you!"

   The tall man looked at Lu Dong and Du Xiaobing, then at Wei Yong, and then at Wei Juan, with a stiff smile on his face, thinking that outsiders are not authentic, you know Mr. Wei, why don't you just say it?

   But he couldn't be reasonable, and he didn't dare to be reasonable, so he quickly said, "Mr. Wei, don't worry, this is all up to me!"

   Wei Yong waved his hand, the tall man breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately left with him.

  Du Xiaobing glanced at Wei Yong, and then at Lu Dong.

   It is no exaggeration to say that Lv Dong also has such prestige in Qingzhao County, a university town, but Lv Dong's behavior is completely different from Wei Yong.

  Probably have different personalities and bring different styles of doing things.

   Wei Yong said: "It's a small matter, don't worry, these financial companies have become more and more popular in the past two years, and they know how to restrain themselves near the Weiqiao factory. It's a bit crazy outside, and sooner or later, it will cause a big problem."

   Lu Dong said with a smile, "I'm sorry Brother Wei."

   "I can't say thank you for this little thing." Wei Yong also had his thoughts: "It's not a problem for you without me."

   The words are so, and it is true. For example, Lu Chun has a comrade-in-arms who transferred here, but Lu Dong still accepts this feeling: "Brother Wei, when you go to Qingzhao, you must call me."

   Wei Yong smiled: "I went to Qingzhao, and if I don't look for you, Brother Lu, who else can I look for?"

Lu Dong and Du Xiaobing went over and said a few words to Wei Juan. Wei Yong is here, and there will be no more situation. The two will soon go out with Wei Yong and Mu Kun to eat Wei Ji's special donkey meat banquet at noon. .

  In every place, there are always some more distinctive foods, such as the Luzhu food from Lujia Village, which may become a selling point in the future.

  If the county's plan goes ahead, Lujiacun can do some tricks in this area. Eating this item will be very attractive to the Chinese people.

   How to say something? Man is undoubtedly the master of the earth, but he is also the slave of the stomach. The happiness brought by food cannot be replaced by anything.

   Suddenly, Lu Dong thought of the salt-baked and charcoal-grilled spicy jars made by Seventh Uncle, and the scorpions he put in the long tea box.

  Has the whole insect feast made a mess?

   After lunch, Lu Dong, Du Xiaobing and Mu Kun returned to Quannan together.

   The three of them were sitting in the car, and the topic of chat was inseparable from Weiqiao and Wei Yong and his very powerful father.

Mu Kun said: "What the Wei family did during the restructuring could not be said to be clean, but like my family and the old Du family, there is no way that the Wei family has done this all these years. There are all kinds of problems in the Wei family, but there is also The good thing, you have also seen Wei Yong, in fact, his father Wei Ping has a similar temperament to him, and the father and son may be more loyal because of their backgrounds."

   He smiled: "Of course, don't provoke them. It's hard to do it. Even if Guodian, they dare to do it! To put it badly, they are already tied to the entire Pingcheng."

   Mu Kun specifically said that when the Wei family was just starting out, there was a local person who helped them. This person was very unsatisfactory later, and the Wei family stunned him and pushed him to the top position of the urban village.

   I don't say whether this is right or wrong, but in some respects, it is more or less worthy of the word loyalty.

   Lu Dong said: "Wei Yong helped me and Lu's catering, I accept this favor."

   Suddenly, Lu Dong thought of one thing, the past.

In the summer of 2019, Li Qima attacked and the flood ravaged the Qingzhao River. He returned to the original Lujia Village to participate in the flood control. He saw large bundles of woven bags printed with "Weiqiao Cotton Spinning". Thousands.

   There are also tons of cinder bags transported to block the openings, with the words "Weiqiao Thermal Power Plant" on them.

   The people of this country have always been supportive from all sides in times of difficulty.

   Mu Kun followed Du Xiaobing to the university town, and Lu Dong went straight back to the village. Tomorrow, the chief of the county government would come to inspect and ask him to be present.

   Lu Dong has already inquired about it clearly, and the leadership of the county government is closely related to the big plan he has drawn up.

   After all, the most direct beneficiaries of all the economic benefits created by Lujia Village are the leaders of the county.

  Professor Fan will also accompany the county leaders when he arrives.

Professor Fan not only presided over the excavation of the Luozhuang Han Tomb, but also preferred to establish a museum on the spot for the Luozhuang Han Tomb and other unearthed cultural relics. .

  Professor Fan came along this time, mainly to see the maintenance effect of the two old houses with the leaders.

   The summer tourist season is coming soon. Even if the old buildings in Moquan Park and Li Qingzhao's hometown need to be repaired, they will have to wait until the end of the summer vacation.

   In addition, the rainy season has already started, so it is not suitable to start construction in this season, no matter the gushing spring water or the rising water level of the Qingzhao River.

   Therefore, it is more about planning and making plans.

   Relevant plans have been approved by the higher authorities, and Qingzhao is also working on financial loans. When this summer passes, Qingzhao will definitely start construction.

  Although the investment amount is worth the fiscal revenue of Qingzhao in the next two or three years, in the long run, if a large agricultural county with a weak industrial foundation wants to have sustainable development, these investments are all worthwhile.

   Of course, any investment has risks and there is the possibility of failure. There is no such thing as a sure-fire business.

   Lu Dong returned to the village, and it was past the end of school. He entered the village from the north of the old village and came to the door of Uncle Seven. He saw Nails squatting at the door, playing with the ants on the ground with a camphor ball.

   In the past two days, Uncle No. 5 asked Grandpa No. 5 to pull labor and borrow his skillful hands to make some final adjustments to the old renovated house together, without giving Lu Dong a car.

  Lu Dong stopped the car, took out a bag of cooked donkey meat brought by Wei Ji and gave it to Nail, and asked, "Where's your dad? Not at home?"

  Nails' answer is also normal: "I just had a fight with my mother and went to the river to fish for fish."

   Lu Dong asked, "Didn't your parents and your mother stop beating? And why?"

  Nail scratched his head and said, "I can't understand it very well. It seems that my dad is talking to someone who doesn't speak."

Seven uncles and seven aunts used to fight every day, and even shovels and harpoons were often used. Lu Dong was not surprised. ."

   Nails ran to the house as soon as he heard it: "Brother Dong, I'll hide this bag of mine first, and Sister Lan Lan will eat my food."

  Lu Dong knew Lu Lanlan's personality and said, "It's not enough to go to Nantou and ask me for it."

   "Got it!" Nail shouted at home.

   Back at home, Lu Dong specially collected a few bags and put them away. When he went to work the next day, he gave them to Heidan and her parents to have a taste.

   Packed up, called Song Na again, and told her that she had returned from Pingcheng, but there was an important matter in the village tomorrow, so she would not go to work in the company.

   It is still relatively early. Lu Dong went to the village committee again. Tomorrow, the county government leader, that is, the second-in-command of the county, will come to inspect it. It is also a major event for Lujia Village, and some preparations must be done.

   After dinner, Lv Zhenlin also specially convened a meeting to determine the specific procedures for tomorrow, so as to avoid major mistakes.
