Chapter 1061: Too Full to Eat

The communication with the city came to a standstill at the instruction of Li Huaide, and all channels were isolated.

The city seemed to have understood the attitude and confidence of the steel mill, and no one was arranged to come to the factory for coordination or communication.

A lake seemed to have fallen into its previous calm after the splashing waves, but the calmer it was, the more violent the storm was.

All those who watched this confrontation were very cautious. Even if they wanted to inquire about the situation, they would treat each other to dinner in private.

Several leaders of the steel mill seemed to be planning something and preparing something. They all looked mysterious and rarely went out.

Except for the trip to Tianjin that had been finalized last month, no other outings were arranged.

On Thursday, April 3, Li Xuewu came out of the meeting room and was about to go downstairs when he was stopped by Xue Zhifu.

"Deputy Director Li, wait a moment"

Xue Zhifu waved to him, and said a few words to the secretary beside him, then came over and patted his arm to indicate: "Talk about something."

The two walked a few steps into his office, and then he said: "Comrade Zhennan called just now and said that there are engineering problems that need to be reported."

Waving his hand, he signaled Li Xuewu to sit on the sofa first, and he personally made hot tea.

"You know the tea here, it's a courtesy, it's purely a face project"

Holding two cups of tea, one was placed in front of Li Xuewu, and the other was placed next to him.

Turning back, he took the teacup on the desk and refilled it with hot water, saying: "In fact, I told my classmate that he doesn't have to think about me every year."

"But it's hard to refuse the kindness, and he mailed it to me"

Xue Zhifu sat on the sofa with the teacup in his hand, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Sometimes I am confused, and I don't know what to give back?"

"If it's expensive, it's not appropriate, and if it's cheap, it hurts feelings. It can't be clichéd, but it must highlight elegance and thoughtfulness, and it must have local characteristics."

He spread his hands and looked at Li Xuewu and asked: "Tell me, what local specialties do we have in Beijing?"

"There are many, the most famous local specialties, let me think about it"

Li Xuewu crossed his legs and shook his head pretending to think, then pointed his finger at Xue Zhifu's expression of laughing while holding the teacup and said: "I know, cadres, there are many cadres in Beijing!"

"Don't think about what to give to your friends"

He waved his hand and said: "Look at the cadres in our Beijing who are rich, and give them a dozen or twenty. Don't look for them back."

"Hahaha!"

Xue Zhifu was also amused by Li Xuewu, and the teacup he was holding almost spilled.

He couldn't stop drinking. He put down his teacup and pointed at Li Xuewu and said, "You are always able to make a shocking statement and get to the point with one sentence!"

"You are joking. I don't understand what you are saying. We are talking about local specialties, right?"

Li Xuewu smiled and blinked, saying, "I have some childhood friends who are doing this. If you are really embarrassed, I will introduce you to them."

He moved the teacup in front of him and said, "I can't get things that are too big, but there is absolutely no problem with things that are quite Beijing-style."

"Look, I told you that there is absolutely no problem with this matter. I must have an idea!"

He caught a glimpse of a figure shaking at the door, and he cleverly ended the topic.

Dongdong——

Lang Zhennan, who is in charge of engineering business in the logistics team, knocked on the door and came in, smiling and nodding and greeting, "Deputy Director Xue, Deputy Director Li".

"Oh, Zhennan, come here, I was just about to talk about your business." Xue Zhifu waved his hand to indicate the location of the teacup and said, "Is it a problem with the project?"

"Yes, I just sorted it out at the meeting this morning, and I want to report it to you."

Lang Zhennan sat down, nodded to Li Xuewu, and reported to Xue Zhifu: "On the 31st, the factory office notified that all the investment and construction projects in the Beijing area under the Engineering Management Command Center were suspended."

"As of today, it is the fourth day, and the direct economic losses caused by the suspension are as high as 170,000 yuan."

He handed a document report to Xue Zhifu and said, "According to the command center's estimate, the losses of each part will increase exponentially for every day the suspension time exceeds."

"Leader, the engineering side does not know much about the current factory's communication with the project and the city, so..."

"You want to ask about the exact time of resumption of work, right?" Xue Zhifu flipped the report in his hand, handed it to Li Xuewu opposite, and said, "What I can tell you is that I don't know either, and I'm waiting too."

He looked at Lang Zhennan, pointed to Li Xuewu and said, "It depends on how the comrades in charge of this business can deal with the problem safely and quickly, or even once and for all."

"Then..."

Lang Zhennan knew what the leader meant, and looked at Li Xuewu tentatively and asked, "Can Deputy Director Li tell us a specific time point, so that we can arrange the next project."

"Well - project plan, right?"

Li Xuewu scratched the scar on his face and looked carefully at the document in his hand. It was very detailed. It seemed that Lang Zhennan had done his homework.

He put the document on his right hand, frowned slightly and thought about it, and said, "It's really hard to give you an exact time, but you have to be mentally prepared for a long-term suspension of work."

"Listen to me -"

Just when Lang Zhennan, whose face changed drastically after hearing his words, was about to speak, he interrupted again, "It doesn't necessarily mean that you have to stop for so long to be prepared."

Li Xuewu nodded his head and reminded him: "If you think about it carefully, the root of the problem is not the project and river reclamation itself."

"I don't quite understand why we should use engineering construction as a bargaining chip to engage in games or negotiations?"

Lang Zhennan frowned and said: "Every extra day of delay in labor, materials, machinery, etc. on the construction site has a time cost."

"Listen to me, I know all this"

Li Xuewu raised his hand and pressed it, and said: "It is precisely because the game has reached the most critical stage that your project will be affected."

"Deputy Director Xue should know that Director Li doesn't want this either. He is more anxious than anyone else. He wants the new workers' village and the headquarters building to be completed tomorrow."

"But is this possible?"

Li Xuewu shook his head slightly and said: "Some people will not give us this time, let alone this space."

He pointed his finger at the report and said: "What they are stuck on is the period when we are taking steps forward, and they want to strangle our lifeblood."

"The loss of 170,000 yuan is very serious. It is enough for United Trade to work hard for a long time. Believe me."

Li Xuewu looked at him and said, "I, Deputy Director Xue, and Director Li are all heartbroken."

"yes--"

Xue Zhifu shook his head slightly and sighed: "This is all our hard-earned money. We have worked hard for a year and finally saved a little money. I thought about cleaning up the house and marrying a wife. What's the result?"

He spread his hands and said, "People say this house can be built, and his wife is his!"

"So, at this time, don't care about 170,000 or 710,000."

Li Xuewu looked at Lang Zhennan seriously and said: "Even if it is 7.1 million, we have to fight this battle. We cannot lose, and we cannot afford to lose."

"Please comfort me and coordinate with me below."

Xue Zhifu calmly and calmly faced Lang Zhennan and gave the economic loss report.

It can be said that this report came out too late and was meaningless, because Li Huaide didn't want to watch it at all and had to give an order.

But then again, this report is actually a long time coming and should have been released during the negotiations.

Why did Li Xuewu keep that report in his hand? He was just thinking, 170,000 in three days, how much is thirty days?

The steel rolling mill has many projects and heavy tasks today, but the key construction projects are all in Steel City, so it is not afraid of delays.

Even the workers' new village project is a big three-year project. It doesn't matter if the construction period is shortened by one month. The worst is that it will be one year later in promotion and one year later in realizing groupization.

Even if this egg is broken, I have to knock against the tough people in the city and kill those evil ways and evil spirits.

Not to mention that Lao Li is angry, even Li Xuewu has had enough of this anger.

In the early stage, several working groups were organized to make a mess of the big learning activities.

Later, when there were mergers and reorganizations of bankrupt factories, it was really uncomfortable to take advantage of the progress of the steel rolling mill to drive the backwardness.

Now, the development plan of the steel rolling mill cannot be synchronized with the city's expectations, so they are resorting to the same thing. I don't know who taught them.

Lang Zhennan looked at Li Xuewu, who was looking serious, and Xue Zhifu, who was frowning slightly, with some surprise, and asked, "Is it possible to negotiate peace?"

Li Xuewu looked at Xue Zhifu opposite, and when he saw him looking at him, he gave a cold voice and said: "The war can start with the other party shouting, but we cannot let them shout it is over. This matter is not over yet."

"The basis for peace talks is equality and mutual trust, as long as the other party does not show an accurate attitude."

He shook his head slightly and said: "It is really possible that the Red Star Group will be located in other provinces."

After saying this, Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, turned to look at Lang Zhennan and said with a smile: "I heard that your hometown is in Shaanxi Province?"

Seeing Lang Zhennan frowning and looking at him, Li Xuewu raised his head slightly and said, "Have you ever considered returning to your hometown to work? It's much closer to your hometown."

He waved his hand and joked to Xue Zhifu: "The person who invited Kuang Yusheng to dinner last night was the deputy director of the Beijing Office of Shaanxi Province. He gave him a detailed introduction to the beautiful Jiangnan in northern Shaanxi, and the red mountain flowers here."

"Hehehe - they picked it up!"

Xue Zhifu chuckled, picked up the tea cup, took a sip of hot tea, and said: "I really don't care if I want to go to Shaanxi Province, it's just a chance to see the magnanimity and style of the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties."

"Deputy Team Leader Lang seems reluctant to return to his hometown?"

Li Xuewu looked to the other side and joked: "Is it because the water in my hometown is no longer beautiful, or is it the people?"

Lang Zhennan took a deep breath, shook his head slightly and said: "How dare you return to your hometown if you have no face to see your parents?"

He also got angry in a hurry, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of it and said: "My father also told me that after planting the land for a few more years, when he can no longer walk, he would come to the capital to join me."

"Good guy! I didn't wait for my father to come, so I defected to my father instead!"

"Hahaha--!"

——

"What do you mean? Are you here to find me?"

Li Xuewu returned to the security building. As soon as he reached the third floor, he saw some people standing at the door of his office.

He approached and curiously asked Peng Xiaoli, "Which unit are you from?"

"You must be Director Li! We are fellow villagers!"

Before Peng Xiaoli could make an introduction, a tall, thin man with a slightly frail face but a rough tone came over and held his hand enthusiastically.

"Oh, I didn't know that Director Li's family is from the Northeast before, but I only know it now. What a pity!"

"Fellow? From the Northeast?" Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows in surprise, looked at a few people in amusement and asked, "Where did you come from the Northeast?"

"We are from Fengcheng, entrusted by Deputy Director Lu who is in charge of industry to visit you."

The visitor knew the timing and let go of his hand, and introduced himself: "My surname is Hu. I am the deputy director of the Beijing Office of Liaoning Province. I am here unexpectedly. I hope you don't mind."

"Well - everyone here is a guest, it doesn't matter."

Li Xuewu grinned, looked at a few people and said, "I used to establish relationships with people and call them fellow villagers when we meet. This is the first time that someone calls me a fellow villager!"

There was a hint of ridicule in his words, and it also pointed out the other person's thoughts.

He might not know where he was born, but how could his mother and father not know?

The old lady was born in the Northeast. No one in Li Shun's generation was born in the Northeast.

If you insist on saying that Li Xuewu is from the Northeast, it may be because of the big mark in his mouth.

After all, this was taught by the old lady. Among the children in the Li family, Li Xuewu has a strong accent.

Li Xuewen was a teacher and had to speak standard Mandarin. Li Xuecai was young and was not affected much.

It's just that Li Xuewu is naughty and likes to say this. Today, people from the Northeast are coming to ask for payment, asking you to pay back the money!

"Let's go, fellow villagers, come into the house and talk"

Li Xuewu didn't pay much attention to the other party's relationship. He was humane and invited them into the house with a smile.

There were four men and women in this group, and they were carrying things in their hands. They really looked like visiting relatives.

Being able to find his office directly and finding out that he was of Northeastern mixed race meant that the other party had some skills, but not many.

"You are all welcome, you treat me as a fellow countryman, and I will treat you as a fellow countryman."

Li Xuewu smiled and invited them to sit down on the sofa, leaving Peng Xiaoli to make tea.

When you go out, don't hit anyone with a smiling face.

What's more, it's business for others to come, and I've been like this before. Let's understand each other and don't make things difficult.

"When I heard what you said, my heart fell to pieces, haha."

Deputy Director Hu looked at Li Xuewu with a smile and said: "I was a little nervous when I first came here. After all, I have never met before, so I came to the door rashly, huh? Haha."

"I'm so worried. You said I'm from the Northeast, but that's right. Half of my heart is in the Northeast."

Li Xuewu took a sip of tea with a smile and explained: "My second uncle works in Jicheng Forestry, and several branches of our factory are in Liao Province. It is correct for both public and private to say that I am from the Northeast."

"Oh, you are still open-minded."

Deputy Director Hu smiled and praised: "Just now you mentioned several branches of the Red Star Factory."

He raised his hand to motion to the two people around him and introduced: "This is Director Gao Dahai of Steel City Industry, and this is Director Zhao Ershan of Yingcheng Industry."

"Oh, this is the parents' official!"

Li Xuewu stood up with a smile and shook hands with the two men again, nodded and said: "I have been to Yingcheng and Steel City many times, but unfortunately I have not been exposed to local business."

"You are too polite. We haven't met before, which means our fate has not come yet."

Gao Dahai, who came from Gangcheng, said with a smile: "Now that we see him, it means that we are destined."

"We are here specifically to thank the Red Star Rolling Mill for its contribution to Liao Province, Steel City and Yingcheng, and more cities."

Deputy Director Hu said sincerely: "With the steelmaking plant as the core, the hardware, metallurgy, electronics and other industrial zones built by your factory have really brought new opportunities for development to the steel city."

"That's right, that's what Director Hu said."

Gao Dahai took over the conversation and said: "The small hardware industry founded by the Red Star Factory has brought new ideas for the development of heavy industry to local companies. There is no doubt that our company must learn from the Red Star Factory."

“Especially when the new steel rolling mill project is finalized”

He glanced at Deputy Director Hu and then said to Li Xuewu: "The city leaders were very happy when they heard the news."

"Deputy Director Lu knew that I was coming to visit you, so he specially told me to thank the comrades of the Red Star Rolling Mill for their support and trust."

“You’re actually welcome about this matter.”

Li Xuewu raised his hand and said: "We are going in both directions. Steel City has a good business environment and superior resource advantages, so our choice is also biased."

"Another one, Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill's investment in the Steel City project is with the purpose of taking root in the Northeast, basing itself on the Steel City, and building an integrated production base."

He gestured between himself and the other party and said: "We have a win-win relationship. While the steel rolling mill creates benefits for itself and the organization, it must also bring benefits to the local area. This is inevitable."

"Oh, hearing you say that makes my heart light up——"

Gao Dahai said with a smile: "Director Dong and I often meet together. I talked to him about Steel City's opinions and attitude on the establishment of the Red Star Factory."

"On this point, the opinions and attitudes of our city's leaders are consistent, that is, to fully support the industrial implementation of the Red Star Factory and comprehensively safeguard the interests of the Red Star Factory during the construction and operation of the Steel City."

He looked at Deputy Director Hu and said, "Deputy Director Lu also made clear requirements for this matter."

"It is indeed the case. It was discussed at the meeting and the opinions were very unanimous to help the steel rolling mill come to fruition."

Deputy Director Hu smiled and nodded: "Including the sudden negotiation between the steel rolling mill and Yingcheng to acquire the shipyard last year, Deputy Director Lu has made an explanation."

He motioned to Zhao Ershan, who was in charge of industry in Yingcheng, and said: "The leader at that time said that no matter how the meat is stewed, it will rot in the pot, right?"

"Yes, Deputy Director Hu, what the leader means is that since the pace of Yingcheng is slow, it is better to leave it to the steel rolling mill to move faster."

Zhao Ershan smiled and introduced: "Originally, our city leaders still had some concerns. They were afraid of the loss of Yingcheng Shipyard's assets, fear of employment problems, etc. It was Deputy Director Lu who did the work."

"I remember at the time that Deputy Director Lu was talking about selling the shipyard at a low price, but the shipyard still belongs to Yingcheng. If the shipyard is not sold, Yingcheng will have a shipyard many years later."

Deputy Director Hu looked at several people and said: "Look at the current shipyard. Last time I went there, it has undergone earth-shaking changes."

"I heard that the production projects were imported from Italy, and the production equipment and shipbuilding technology were imported from many foreign parties. Is that true?"

He asked Li Xuewu, and when Li Xuewu nodded, he continued: "Director Zhou from Yingcheng told me that the shipyard recruited 3,000 people from the local area to join the factory, which solved a large part of their personnel and employment problems. It’s a difficult problem.”

"What is this? This is sincerity leads to spirituality."

Deputy Director Hu said seriously: "We come to visit you today to send this thank you to the steel rolling mill on behalf of Yingcheng and Steel City."

"You are so polite. This is a win-win project. It is our common goal to have a good impact on us and the local area."

Li Xuewu raised his hand and pointed out the window and said, "I know you just mentioned the recruitment target of 3,000 people, because I coordinated and approved this matter."

In the eyes of several people who were slightly surprised but then delighted, Li Xuewu continued: "The steel rolling mill has experienced changes and development since last year."

"It has given new requirements and ideas for the management and welfare of workers, and also put forward goals in line with the new era in terms of production and operation."

"In the new era, in the new period, industrialized production is becoming more and more perfect, and it is gradually relying on, cooperating with and influencing local humanities, economy, medical care, etc."

"This is normal and inevitable. It is a process of integrating enterprises and local development."

Li Xuewu looked at several people and said: "Last year, the three-year plan and the five-year plan for the steel rolling mill revised by Director Li Huaide redefined the harmonious coexistence between production and ecology."

Hu Ke and others were a little surprised and confused. They didn't know what kind of relationship Li Xuewu proposed between production and ecology.

Li Xuewu took the initiative to popularize the steel rolling mill's concept of harmonious coexistence between people, factories, and natural ecosystems, with production as the main body.

The introduction of this concept directly raised today's conversation to a new level.

After all, Hu Ke and others have heard of people in the company boasting about their awesomeness, but the one they encountered today can be regarded as a new trick.

You brag about the good ideological education in your factory, they brag about the good production management in their factory, and they also brag about the high quality of the products in their factory.

Why! But have you ever heard of a factory proposing the concept of building a people-oriented, technologically innovative, integrated production industrial zone on the premise of protecting the natural environment?

Their eyes were opened today!

Ideological education has been carried out every year, but there is no new idea. Production management is a duty, which is boring. Product quality is a responsibility and must be managed. However, no one has ever mentioned ecological harmony. This is too big!

Li Xuewu asked Peng Xiaoli to find the planning drawings of the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill on building an ecological industrial zone in Liangma River from the cabinet.

When the drawings were unfolded and calibrated on the exhibition board, and Li Xuewu was sitting on the sofa and gesturing to introduce it to several people, they were already stunned.

This is not at all as simple as building factories and dormitories or residences together, building several parks in the factory area, and building several parks and supporting facilities in the workers' residential areas as they had in mind.

A simple thermal water circulation system shocked them beyond measure.

Steel rolling mills have abundant thermal resources, but most of them are wasted in cooling pools.

However, in the design of the new industrial zone, although the steel rolling mill is no longer in the plan, the combined tertiary industry and industry still need heat.

Therefore, while meeting the needs of industrial production, the thermal system runs through the heating needs of all buildings in the area, while also ensuring the heating and insulation of ecological green plants in the factory area.

Self-melting snow on main roads in winter, winter greenhouse experiments, indoor four-season gardens, hot water bathing, creation of iconic landscapes, etc.

This thermal water circulation system completely abandons the traditional cooling pool, but chooses to be scientifically and rationally integrated with the Liangma River.

Just looking at the drawings and listening to Li Xuewu's detailed explanations, the four of them were still confused and their eyes were bright.

The reason why I feel confused is not because I don’t understand, but because I have heard too much and thought too much, and I can’t pretend at all.

My eyes lit up because I saw the huge investment in the steel rolling mill from this project plan.

If, Hu Ke swallowed his saliva and thought excitedly in his heart, if the Red Star Factory could be won over to Fengcheng, would this investment land in Fengcheng?

Leaving aside the enterprise's production return, just talking about the investment and construction return in three and five years, what opportunities can this bring to Fengcheng's labor market?

With an investment of tens of millions, and continued construction for three years and improvement for five years, there will be a total investment of at least 50 million, which does not include the production investment in Steel City and Yingcheng.

"Deputy Director Li, with this... such a big project, isn't there a lot of financial pressure on the steel rolling mill?"

"Of course it's big, it's completely beyond our capabilities, and it shouldn't even be planned like this."

Li Xuewu pinched the pen in his hand and smiled helplessly. After taking a sip of tea, he looked at the surprised looks of several people and explained: "If you dare to think like this, if you dare to make something like this, it's just bad luck in the steel rolling mill."

"We have somehow opened up the market in foreign trade, not just hardware, electronics and ships."

Li Xuewu said with a Versailles expression: "Now even the metalworking and automobile industries have begun to receive large orders."

"The steel rolling mill is expected to achieve a profit of 80 million yuan in the next three years. If we don't spend money on the handle... we will lose money."

Zhao Ershan and Gao Dahai looked at Deputy Director Hu Ke dumbfounded, wanting to ask if this was true?

Hu Ke lives in the capital and has done a thorough investigation of the steel rolling mill. He nodded secretly at this moment, but he was still shocked by the specific figures given by Li Xuewu.

Are metallurgy and automobile exports so profitable?

No, exporting anything is extremely profitable!

No wonder the steel rolling mill is so awesome. It even built some kind of eco-industrial zone when it wasn't even full. It turns out it's so developed.

Isn’t this simply about being full after eating enough?

Zhao Ershan looked at Li Xuewu talking eloquently and glanced at Gao Dahai with some envy.

Brother, he is so awesome at bragging!

When Gao Dahai saw him looking over, he nodded unconsciously and agreed with his point of view.

Indeed, but I also want to pretend like this!

Both of them knew in their hearts that if the steel rolling mill dared to shout that the income in three years was 80 million, it proved that the income in three years was more than 80 million.

80 million is likely to be the investment and construction cost of ecological industrial zones and production industrial zones such as new steel rolling mills.

In other words, in the next five years, the steel rolling mill will invest 80 million to build an integrated and integrated industrial aircraft carrier.

This 80 million is not all spent on construction, machinery, equipment, etc., but also includes the organizational training of technology and personnel, or soft investment in other projects.

But no matter what, when the figure of 80 million came down, the four people in the office were a little over the top.

This is such a waste of money. Who doesn’t want it? If the Red Star Factory is brought to Liao Province, it doesn’t matter which city it settles in. It’s all meat in the bowl.

As long as we arrive in Liaoning Province, Liaoning Province will have 80 million investment in large projects in the next five years.

The people who brought this project back became a major project in Liao Province. Progress and development were tied to the Sky Monkey and lit up to the sky.

Therefore, Peng Xiaoli was a little scared.

Seeing the eagerness in the eyes of several people seemed to melt Li Xuewu and snatch him away, he was really afraid that the steel rolling mill would lose its deputy director.

The steel rolling mill cannot exist without Deputy Director Li, just like the West cannot exist without Jerusalem.

——

"I heard that you have a fellow countryman here?"

When he was about to get off work, Li Xuewu came back from the firefighting and security posts. He happened to meet Bu Qingfang and Wang Yajuan and greeted him and started talking.

"Are you doing propaganda after all? You know everything. You must be from an intelligence background, right?"

Li Xuewu greeted her with a smile and nodded to Wang Yajuan.

Bu Qingfang smiled and said angrily: "Are you still qualified to criticize me? Tell me about you, how you deceived your fellow villagers."

"This is really unjust. I never lie or lie to others."

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who told you this? I'll go find him. Isn't this slanderous? It has affected my reputation."

"Hehe - I said you were fat and you still had asthma."

Bu Qingfang said with a smile: "Is it the three thousand acres of ecological industrial zone you told others, with a total investment of 80 million in five years?"

"They also said that there is a problem with the location selection now, and the factory is looking for a solid and stable development space."

She pointed at Li Xuewu and laughed and said, "Just tell me, at lunch that day you said that Lao Wei and Lao Kuang were deceiving people into getting benefits. What about you?"

"They deceive people, and the most they can afford is a meal. If you deceive people, they won't be able to eat for the rest of their lives!"

"What's going on-!"

Li Xuewu said aggrievedly: "Whenever I deceive them into not having enough food to eat, just tell me whether the factory planning is true, whether the site selection is pending, whether the 80 million is true."

"Hey, hey, what's going on with the eighty million?"

Bu Qingfang nodded and asked: "Why haven't I heard that our factory will invest 80 million?"

"Your information is not accurate."

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said, "When did I say I would invest 80 million? What I said was an estimated profit of 80 million, an estimated 80 million."

"Oh - what a guy!"

Bu Qingfang looked at him in surprise and said, "You won't stop until you fool people into a trap."

"Let me tell you, you are not afraid that Lao Wei and the others will eat the treat, nor are you afraid that they will cause trouble. You are afraid that the scene they create will not be chaotic enough!"

No matter how many dishes they eat or how much wine they drink, they don’t dare to shout out the 80 million Wei.

If they really shouted this sentence at the wine table, they would be eaten alive by the other party.

They were kidnapped alive and used as hostages, and the steel rolling mill must be invited back no matter what.

Li Xuewu really dared to brag and make trouble, and he didn't need to publicize or notify him. Today's communication with the comrades from Liao Province and the content of the conversation would definitely be leaked by Wei Zaike and the others.

This is really explosive news. The lake is too quiet. Last time Zhao Fuchun came and threw a pebble into it. This time Li Xuewu is going to throw a depth charge into it, which will inevitably muddy the water.

"Yes, the theme of tonight's dinner must be 80 million, just take a look!"

Bu Qingfang teased him and said, "Director Li knows about this. If you don't know, report it immediately. Don't make any mistakes."

"Director Li is extremely smart, how can he not know this?"

Li Xuewu squinted his eyes, looked at her and the stationmaster Wang Yajuan, who was snickering, and asked, "What are you doing here? Is there a treat?"

"You please?"

Bu Qingfang said with a smile: "If you invite us, we will go and eat, otherwise no one will invite us."

"That's because you are too arrogant and others don't dare to invite you." Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said, "I wanted to invite you, but who made me want to invite you? I don't have the time. I am busy with work during the day and busy with family at night."

"Yeah~ Yeah~ Yeah -" Bu Qingfang pursed her lips and said, "It's different now that we have a son. We all know that we will go home early after work!"

She gestured to Wang Yajuan, who had his head lowered, and said, "Isn't that right? I called Wang Yajuan to come over to discuss the May Day Art Performance."

"Hey, there's another show to watch, that's a good thing."

Li Xuewu smiled and nodded and said: "The factory hasn't organized an art performance for a while. Let's make it lively and cheerful."

"Your demands are high enough——!"

Bu Qingfang said to him: "What do you think, please give me some advice, otherwise I won't let you go."

"You guys are catching young men downstairs, right?" Li Xuewu looked around with a smile and asked, "You're all asking?"

"There's no point asking them. I'm here to ask you specifically."

Bu Qingfang would say, blocking his escape route: "Who doesn't know that you, Deputy Director Li, love literature and art, and you support the cultural construction of the factory most of all."

"Are you sure you are talking about Deputy Director Li?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly: "Why do I think you should be talking about Director Li?"

"Ha ha--!"

As if thinking of something, Bu Qingfang slapped him angrily and glanced upstairs, which seemed to mean something meaningful.

As long as you don't do this kind of thing, you will be caught if you do, and your secret will be exposed sooner or later.

Unless you have a big face and are not afraid of revealing your secrets, or there is a clear need for justice in the relationship.

Wang Yajuan seemed to understand something, raised her head and glanced at him, as if angry and ashamed.

No matter how much this person improves his abilities, his temperament is still the same. As long as what he wants to say will always make sense.

——

Li Xuewu and Bu Qingfang didn't chat for a few words before they were called away by Li Xue. It was not a personal matter, Jing Yunong was looking for him.

Li Xue seemed a little dissatisfied with her second brother standing downstairs chatting and laughing with Wang Yajuan.

She would not directly remind any married man to pay attention to the impact. She knew that if her second brother didn't care, who could make sense.

But, she really felt sorry for her second sister-in-law. She had just given birth. How uncomfortable it would be to know that her second brother was out to attract bees and butterflies.

So I invited him to come to the main office building. When he saw no one, he pouted.

Li Xuewu saw it, especially the way she just greeted Bu Qingfang and Wang Yajuan, it was obvious that she had opinions.

But he also did it on purpose, letting her bulge her face into a bun and pretending not to notice.

This made Li Xue angry, so she bumped into him with her shoulder while walking up the stairs. Li Xuewu shook her and waited a step down, watching her hit the wall.

The brother and sister were playing dangerous games on the stairs like little children.

Some people who went downstairs to do errands saw this scene and snickered. It was rare for the serious Li Xue to behave like this.

As for Li Xuewu, they were already familiar with him. He had a strong and gentle personality and a domineering kindness.

At least he didn't get angry with the staff in the agency, let alone be cold-faced.

Li Xue felt a little embarrassed when someone saw her playing around. She glared at her second brother and hurried up the stairs.

On the third floor, the two of them arrived at Jing Yunong's office one after another.

"I have someone in need right now. I saw you from the window and asked Li Xue to go down and call you."

Jing Yunong explained with a smile and motioned for him to sit down and talk.

Li Xuewu replied in a funny tone: "You dare me to expose my target even if I'm downstairs?"

"Then remember not to hang out downstairs next time."

Jing Yunong pursed his lips and smiled and said, "I'm really busy with work. I have a party tonight, so you can go to it for me at the International Hotel."

"Hey! From which province are they all coming to you?"

Li Xuewu said in surprise: "What level? I can't afford to accompany you. Don't be ridiculous."

"Where are you thinking? It's not that kind of thing."

Jing Yunong explained seriously: "The French businessman Chantal has never left the capital. He said he was in contact with their foreign embassy about something."

"We don't care about the foreign affairs section and don't need to ask, but she took the initiative to find it first."

Jing Yunong looked at Li Xuewu and said, "You should still have an impression of her. I'm not sure why she contacted us. You go and find out the situation."

"Am I Ben Boba, or am I Ba Bo Ben?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and asked, "You have to tell me what's going on with her. What do you want to know?"

"Otherwise, how can I carry out my work?"

He spread his hands and said, "You can't just eat, chat, and gossip, right?"

"If I knew this about her, why would I need you? I can figure it out just sitting here!"

Jing Yunong glanced at him and reminded: "Eat, eat, be sure to pay attention to foreign affairs etiquette, don't miss the fox and make yourself a mess."

"Then I won't go, I'm afraid of death."

Li Xuewu shook his head and refused: "That person named Chantal seems to be only twenty-six or seventeen years old."

"To be able to run an international trading company at such a young age and have contact with their foreign affairs department, it seems that he is not a good person at first glance."

"Where are the people you, Li Xuewu, are afraid of?"

Jing Yunong glanced at him with raised eyebrows and asked, "No way, is this the Li Xuewu I know? Intimidated by a foreign woman?"

"That's not an ordinary foreign woman!"

Li Xuewu emphasized: "In my opinion, there are two types of foreign women, one is French women, and the other is other foreign women."

"What's the meaning?"

Jing Yunong was confused by what he said, one after another.

Li Xuewu squinted his eyes, pointed his finger at the desk and explained softly: "I suspect she will plot something against me!"

"Fuck you—!"

Jing Yunong was so angry, she thought Li Xuewu wanted to say something mysteriously.

"If you say so, there are two kinds of Li Xuewu I know."

She imitated Li Xuewu's tone and said: "One is Li Xuewu who talks nonsense but is true during working hours, and the other is Li Xuewu who talks nonsense after get off work."

Li Xue secretly glanced at her watch, and she said that her second brother was talking casually. It turned out that he was off work.
