Chapter 1250 Decision
In the quaint study, Song Lao is wearing reading glasses reading the newspaper just published today. Although he has left the leadership position, Song Lao reads the newspapers of the day and the documents sent by the veteran cadre department every day, and he is still very concerned about national affairs.
Director Lu knocked on the door softly and said softly, "Chief, Xia Ruofei is here."
Hearing that, Song Lao took off his reading glasses, smiled at Xia Ruofei at the door, and said, "Why are you standing? Come in and sit!"
"Yes!" Xia Ruofei responded and stepped into the study.
Director Lu personally went over to help Song Lao fill up the water in the teacup, and then poured another cup of tea for Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei quickly got up and thanked him - Director Lu's administrative level is the deputy department, and he is the same level as the senior officials in Southeast Province. He personally poured water for Xia Ruofei, Xia Ruofei naturally couldn't accept it calmly, and the necessary courtesy must still be required.
Director Lu smiled and nodded towards Xia Ruofei, then quietly exited the study, and closed the door when he went out.
The library suddenly fell silent.
Xia Ruofei looked at Song Lao, who was sitting opposite, and found that his complexion was very ruddy and he looked energetic. What's more exaggerated was that the silver hair on his head had turned back to black and turned into gray.
"Grandpa Song, your complexion is very good." Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "It's really gratifying!"
Song Lao laughed happily, pointed at Xia Ruofei and said, "This is all thanks to your little guy! The Guanyin pendant you gave me is really amazing. It didn't feel so obvious at first. After a long time, the effect becomes more and more magical. Not only have I grown black hair, but now I feel a little dizzy wearing this pair of reading glasses. It is estimated that my eyes have also improved. I will have to let Xiao Lu Get me a new pair of reading glasses."
Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "Rejuvenate! This is a great thing!"
Ju Lingyu Guanyin can gather spiritual energy to nourish the wearer all the time. Naturally, the longer the wearing time, the more obvious the effect. Now it seems that the effect of Song Lao wearing this jade Guanyin has gradually been revealed, and Xia Ruofei is naturally happy for him.
Song Lao smiled and said, "I want to dye my hair back to white, so as not to be seen as an old monster!"
Xia Ruofei couldn't help laughing and said, "Grandpa Song, it's not so exaggerated! Besides... Even if it is dyed, it is dyed black! How can you dye black hair white?"
"That's not bad," Song Lao said with a smile.
In fact, when he was in a leadership position, his hair was dyed black. Of course, it was out of the needs of the country's image. After all, as a leader, he would appear on TV news almost every day. After he retired, he would not dye his hair at all. You know Hair dye is also bad for the body, even if it is advertised as pure natural, it is impossible to have no harm at all.
Song Lao continued: "And the Zhong Kui ornament you gave last time is also very unusual! In the past, this old house always had a shady feeling, and it was a little uncomfortable after living for a long time, but please After the decoration, I feel that the air is much warmer, and the staff at home are looking much better!"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "It's good to be able to help!"
Song Lao said with emotion: "Ruofei! It's really lucky for our Song family to meet you. If it wasn't for you, my old bones would have been playing chess with my old comrades in Babaoshan. In the past two years, we have The Song family has always been smooth sailing, and in the final analysis, it is thanks to the wonderful hand of rejuvenation!"
Xia Ruofei said: "Grandpa Song, you are too polite! You are the general I admired most when I was a soldier. It is my honor to be able to contribute to your health!"
Xia Ruofei knew that Song Lao brought the topic here, and it should be about the Liu family, so he just politely said a few words, then closed his mouth, looked at Song Lao with clear eyes, and waited for his next sentence.
Song Lao glanced at Xia Ruofei and asked lightly, "Did Xiao Rui tell you?"
Xia Ruofei was stunned,
He said, "Did you talk about the Liu family? He didn't say it in great detail... He just said that the old man of the Gao family came to look for you."
Song Lao smiled and said: "You don't have to be nervous. Lao Gao came to me, and it was for Lao Liu's business. I hope I can persuade you to take action."
Xia Ruofei looked at Song Lao quietly and did not speak. He knew that Song Lao must have made a decision long ago, and all he needed was to listen.
Of course, Song Lao can't force him. If he really doesn't want to, it's useless for Tianwang Laozi to intercede. Although Taoyuan Company is in China, in the end, its core competitiveness has nothing to do with domestic farms and pharmaceutical factories. , If you are in a hurry, Xia Ruofei can go directly abroad.
Most of his funds are in overseas accounts, and as long as there is space for spiritual plans, it is not difficult to build a Taoyuan company at all, and the only loss is the money invested in the early stage.
Of course, Xia Ruofei didn't want to go to this step unless it was a last resort, and he also believed that Song Lao should not force himself to do things he didn't want to do.
Song Lao immediately said: "You know, Lao Gao has saved my life again. If he hadn't carried me off the battlefield, I would have died a long time ago, how could I have become a general or even a country? What about the leader?"
Speaking of this, Song Lao's words changed again, looked at Xia Ruofei and said: "But I told Lao Gao that he is my savior, and you are also my savior. Our Song family will never force a life-saving help. The benefactor does what you don't want to do, and if someone wants to use the influence of the family to persecute you, our Song family will never sit idly by!"
When Xia Ruofei heard the words, a warm current surged in his heart.
To tell the truth, Song Lao can say this for the sake of it, which shows how important Xia Ruofei is in his mind.
In any case, Mr. Gao is an old comrade-in-arms of Song Lao, and he is an old comrade-in-arms who live and die together; now the Gao family is also a big family, and in terms of strength on the surface, Xia Ruofei can't even match a hair of the Gao family. .
But Song Lao was able to make such a tough statement for him, even at the risk of offending his savior, Xia Ruofei was a little moved.
After Song Lao said this, he showed a kind smile on his face and said: "Ruofei, the reason why I called you here today is not to put pressure on you, but to give you a reassurance. You can do things according to your own heart, and you don't need to worry about the influence of the Liu family and even the Gao family."
"Grandpa Song, thank you..." Xia Ruofei's voice was slightly choked.
Song Lao waved his hand and said: "This is what I should do. This matter itself was brought out because you treated me for me, and our confidentiality work was not done properly. And you don't have to have any psychological burden. This is the situation. If Lao Liu can't last for a long time, the Liu family will definitely keep a low profile at this stage, and will never show their edge; you don't have to worry about the Gao family. Although Lao Gao and I have been walking less these years, we are after all. A comrade-in-arms who came out of the trenches, there are not many old brothers alive now, he still has to give my face, after all...his body is much worse than mine..."
When Song Lao said these words, a faint domineering appeared, Xia Ruofei seemed to see the all-powerful general in his memory in a trance.
After retreating, Song Lao became more and more peaceful, and he seldom showed such a sharp edge.
After listening to Song Lao's words, Xia Ruofei pondered for a long time before asking, "Grandpa Song, I want to know... Aside from other factors, as far as you are concerned, what do you want me to do?"
Song Lao was stunned for a moment, then asked back with a smile, "Shouldn't this matter be based on your opinion? Why did you ask me what I thought?"
"Because your position is also very important!" Xia Ruofei grinned, "If you don't want me to treat the old man of the Liu family, then I won't say a word, I will pack my things and return to Sanshan when I go back today!"
"You little slick!" Song Lao couldn't help but scolded with a smile, and then asked meaningfully, "What if I hope you can help him properly?"
Xia Ruofei had expected it, and he immediately said without hesitation: "Then I can think about it, at least I won't refuse."
There was a hint of relief in Song Lao's eyes, he sighed, and then said sternly: "Ruo Fei, my opinion is only for reference, the reason why I haven't said it before is for fear of affecting your decision. I'll tell you what I think!"
Xia Ruofei nodded, looked at Song Lao, and looked like he was listening.
Song Lao said: "I said before that an old guy who came out of the trenches is not much left now. Aside from other factors, I don't want Lao Liu to leave so early, especially if he still If there is a chance to save it. But then again, the Liu family has also created a lot of trouble for the Song family over the years. Whether it is in the political field or in the commercial field, it has a lot of constraints on us. From this point of view, if Lao Liu is not there Now, the Liu family is nothing to worry about..."
Song Lao said very frankly, and did not hide his entangled and contradictory psychology in front of Xia Ruofei at all.
To be honest, at Song Lao's level, he usually doesn't talk about the clouds, mountains, and fog, at least he has to conceal his intelligence. It's absolutely impossible to make things so straightforward. He also treated Xia Ruofei as his own son and nephew, so he said these words without any scruples.
Xia Ruofei smiled slightly and said, "I understand..."
Song Lao was stunned for a moment and asked, "You understand? I haven't even figured out what position I want to take, but you already understand?"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "Grandpa Song, you are a fan of the authorities! In fact, after hearing what you said, I still admire you very much!"
Indeed, if Song Lao confessed that he did not want the old man of the Liu family to have any hope of survival, Xia Ruofei would not feel anything wrong. After all, from the perspective of the family, it was the best result. However, Song Lao still expressed his reluctance to part with the friendship in the past, which is a very rare flash of humanity.
A person is human because he is an emotional animal. If everything starts from the pros and cons, and the consideration is all interests, then from the perspective of human nature, there is something missing.
Song Lao smiled bitterly and said, "Don't be rude!"
Xia Ruofei said sternly: "How dare I mock you old man! These are my words from the heart!"
Song Lao smiled and asked, "Ruofei, you just said you understood, did you decide what to do?"
Xia Ruofei nodded with a smile and said, "Almost! I already have a general charter."
In fact, before Xia Ruofei came, he already had a basic principle.
Now that the Liu family has learned of his medical strength, it is undoubtedly the most unwise choice to directly refuse. Although Xia Ruofei is not afraid of trouble, it does not mean that he likes to be troubled by trouble.
And if you directly promise to treat Mr. Liu, first of all, Xia Ruofei will not be able to pass this test in his heart - if someone puts a little pressure on you, you will give in, do you still have any backbone? Moreover, it is not in the interests of Xia Ruofei to give the Liu family a living pillar, nor is it in the interests of the Song family.
So he needs to find a balance in the middle.
In fact, this is very similar to Song Lao's mentality.
The difference is that Song Lao was just struggling, but in fact he handed over the choice to Xia Ruofei, and he did not exert any influence on Xia Ruofei at all, but stood up to be a strong backing for Xia Ruofei; and Xia Ruofei's choice, The only thing you need to consider is how to minimize your troubles and maximize your benefits in this incident.
Now Song Lao's mentality basically coincides with his considerations, which naturally strengthens his inner decision.
Song Lao couldn't help but feel a little curious, and asked, "Then can you tell me what your decision was?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Grandpa Song, let me sell it! Please help pass a message to the Liu family. I hope to meet the old man of the Liu family and meet him alone."
Song Lao raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that you don't intend to refuse?"
"Of course!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Grandpa Song, I will wait until I meet the old man of the Liu family. I will report to you in detail at that time."
Song Lao smiled and waved his hand and said, "No need to report... I said it all, no matter what decision you make, I will support it unconditionally! No one or any force can force you to do things you don't want to do!"
Then, Song Lao said: "I will ask Xiao Lu to contact the Liu family immediately. I believe there will be no suspense. They have no other choice and will definitely agree to meet!"
"Well!" Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Then I will trouble Grandpa Song."
Song Lao smiled and pressed the call button on the study phone, and said directly, "Let Xiao Lu come in!"
Then he looked up and said to Xia Ruofei: "Ruofei, stay for lunch! If everything goes well, you should be able to see the old guy from the Liu family in the afternoon!"
