Men and women eating in the courtyard

"Good morning, Director Li!"

"Why did you come here again?"

Li Xuewu looked at Zhao Laosi who opened the door for him.

Really unable to resist the boy's welcome words, he frowned and asked, "Where is Zhou Changli?"

"He went to see the main entrance."

Zhao Laosi smiled and explained: "Sister Lou said he was not enthusiastic enough, so she asked me to switch with him."

Li Xuewu looked at this boy suspiciously. Just opening and closing the door, does it have anything to do with enthusiasm?

Although he was muttering in his heart, he said nothing more after parking the car.

This doorman also works for the club management office, so Li Xuewu can't speak directly.

But looking at Zhao Laosi who was watching him with a smile, Li Xuewu felt itchy on his back.

Are you still a bitch?

Weren't the security guards at the door so polite when I went to wash my feet in the past? How come my sensory standards have deteriorated after experiencing the service standards of this era?

"Hey! Isn't this the groom's official? I still have time to play~"

Otherwise, I felt something was wrong from the moment I walked in today. When I walked to the management office, I heard this sentence as soon as I walked in.

"Oops~ I went to the wrong place. I went to the wrong place."

Li Xuewu just stepped into the screen door and stepped back. When he saw Sister Lou chasing after her, he smiled and said: "I came to visit, but I didn't expect that I ended up at the vinegar shop somehow."

"Fuck you! Who's jealous of you!"

Sister Lou scolded and glared at Li Xuewu, looking him up and down, as if Li Xuewu was different now that he was married.

Li Xuewu walked around and asked, "Where are the people? Why are you just talking to yourself?"

"It's upstairs, my dad is here too"

Sister Lou saw that Li Xuewu's dressing style had changed. In the past, he wore white and black mature clothes, but today he wears a sea soul shirt with a pair of slim khaki pants, and the leather shoes on his feet have been replaced by canvas shoes.

This outfit is really at the forefront of fashion in this era.

Whether it's a sea shirt, khakis that haven't become popular yet, or those pair of canvas shoes, they are all rare items.

Especially Li Xuewu drove here today with a toad mirror stuck on his chest. It looked so fashionable.

"The clothes your wife gave you?"

"this one?"

Li Xuewu was about to go upstairs to have a look, but when he saw Sister Lou asking, he looked down at himself and asked, "Does it look good?"

How the hell do you want Sister Lou to answer this?

"It looks pretty, looks younger, and is much better than the clothes you used to wear."

Sister Lou twisted her lips and praised. She had wanted to change his dressing style before, but he refused.

What now?

What a big bastard!

Li Xuewu couldn't help but grinned when he saw Sister Lou turning around and walking upstairs.

He came early today, and no one at the party had come yet. Only Father Lou and Master Dou were upstairs.

Father Lou comes to work every day these days. He has been busy at home these years, and finally has something serious to do.

Although Li Xuewu has made it clear that he will not be paid a penny to work here. Not only will he not be paid, but he will also have to pay in reverse.

But he is also willing to do this. He handles all the plans and planning here, and the implementation and management are very convenient.

Master Dou also came here today to look at the project. In the early stage, many people were hired to reroute underground water and electricity. They were busy for a while, and they only finished it in the past few days.

Otherwise, it would be more difficult to renovate a house than to build a house. Just re-laying the water pipes and electrical lines is laborious enough.

According to Li Xuewu's requirements, the original appearance cannot be changed, and the use of water and electricity must not be delayed.

The water supply and sewerage are easy to deal with, just dig trenches and bury pipes, but the electricity has made Master Dou spend a lot of time.

Nowadays, all the wires coming in from the outside are aluminum-clad wires, but Li Xuewu asked him to use copper-clad wires.

Master Dou didn't understand what it meant, but Li Xuewu asked for it because he knew that most of the materials in this old house were made of wood, and aluminum wire was too dangerous.

Moreover, the electrical appliances here are indispensable in the future. How can we do it once and thoroughly?

Today is to ask Lou’s father for acceptance and discuss the next stage of renovation construction.

"Hey~ You came so early!"

As soon as Li Xuewu entered, Master Dou smiled and said hello, and Li Xuewu also smiled and responded.

"It's early for you. It's only what time it is. I'm very busy."

"Hey! If you do this, you can earn your hard-earned money."

Master Dou was also good at chatting, and teased Li Xuewu for a few words, but he didn't talk about the wedding.

Li Xuewu followed the two men to discuss the second phase of the reconstruction project for a while, and Master Dou said that he would go to see the construction and come back later.

Seeing that Li Xuewu had something to say to Manager Lou across from him, he didn't seem to understand.

After seeing Master Dou off, Sister Lou also walked in. Li Xuewu also called her just now.

"Is there any letter?"

Sister Lou took a thermos bottle to refill the hot water in the tea cups of her father and Li Xuewu, and asked Li Xuewu at the same time.

"Well, we have negotiated with the people from Hong Kong City News Agency."

Li Xuewu nodded and said, no surprise that Sister Lou could see the purpose of his coming. After all, there was something else that he needed to talk to her father about seriously, and he had to call her.

"The news agency will arrange to take you out of the country. You will have about a month of activities in the port city. They will guide you to apply for all the procedures for the company."

"The money...?"

What Lou's father is worried about is still money. Their joint investment is not easy to take out. It is not thirty to fifty, three to five hundred, or three to five thousand yuan.

"You don't have to worry about this"

Li Xuewu tapped the table with his fingers and said: "It doesn't cost much to start a business over there, not to mention you only have a month."

As he spoke, he looked at Father Lou and said, "As for whether you are going to see your relatives or what plans you have with your relatives, I don't care, but before you come back, you must prepare all the operating conditions for the company. I guarantee that Sister Lou will be able to start her work when she gets there."

"Money will follow Sister Lou"

Li Xuewu didn't wait for Lou's father to ask again, and made his position clear and straightforward.

To put it bluntly, I don't trust Lou's father. I can't follow him out with this money. I can only follow Sister Lou to Hong Kong City when he comes back.

Moreover, the money is not in Sister Lou's hands. Li Xuewu will naturally send the money to the company's account when it is used.

"Leaving this month?"

Father Lou still yearns to go out and have a look. After all, his relatives are there.

"Not sure, maybe next month"

Li Xuewu didn't give him an accurate answer, and explained: "It takes time to prepare over there, and the same goes for us here. You know what the situation is now."

"Then I will prepare a plan to go to Hong Kong City."

Father Lou is a decisive businessman, so he naturally knows what Li Xuewu means by the preparations here.

"If I leave next month, then it will be July when I come back, and the management office here will be on track."

"Well, you will still be in charge of this place when you come back."

Li Xuewu thought for a while and then said: "If you have suitable people, you can introduce them to us. Apart from no salary, our treatment is still very good."

Discussing benefits aside from salary...this is very capitalist!

Lou Yu looked at Li Xuewu as if he saw his former self, who wanted money rather than his life.

"That's good. When it comes to management, I still have some old friends."

Father Lou didn't care about Li Xuewu's stinginess. He said with a smile, then stood up and said, "I'll go check on the water and electricity. You can talk about it here."

After speaking, he went out and left the office to his daughter and Li Xuewu.

Sister Lou looked at Li Xuewu resentfully and asked, "Am I going to go out when dad comes back?"

"uncertain"

Li Xuewu took out the cigarette in his pocket and lit it, and said vaguely: "It still depends on the environment. I will arrange for you to go out when the time is right."

"I am alone?"

Sister Lou naturally heard her father tell Li Xuewu's plan and understood what she should do.

It's just that she still doesn't know what she's going to do by herself.

"I can't send you off this time"

Li Xuewu smiled and said: "But I will arrange for someone to go with you. It is very chaotic over there. You are a weak woman who controls so much money, and you have to be eaten alive."

It was Sister Lou who asked, and Li Xuewu replied that this was all arranged in the future, and it was Sister An Lou's wish to speak out.

"You study hard and take care of business matters. Someone will help you with other things."

Li Xuewu thought for a moment before reminding Sister Lou: "Any means can be used in the business war over there. They are so sinister and sinister that you can't imagine, so safety is the most important thing."

"You still know how to care about me"

Sister Lou's voice was a little bitter, but she still sat opposite and did not come over. What she said made Li Xuewu smile bitterly.

"It's too early to start crying now. It will take at least three months."

He reached out and flicked the cigarette ashes in the ashtray on the table, and then said: "It is better to make use of the time now to study more, so as to save the time."

"Fuck you! You're only going to use me!"

Sister Lou couldn't help it, wiped her tears and said, "Do you take me seriously!?"

"Dang, Dang, why not?!"

Li Xuewu stood up and walked over, sat next to Sister Lou, and persuaded softly: "Can I hand over all the money to you to manage it without taking it seriously? Can I hand over all the accounts to you without taking it seriously?"

"Still using me!"

Sister Lou doesn't want to hear this. She still doesn't know what she has in her hands? She wanted to hear something else.

——

There is a reason why we come to the gathering on Sunday. The equipment and facilities at the training hall are already in place for physical exercise.

When Li Xuewu entered the club's now open courtyard through the door from the management office, someone was already trying out the equipment.

"When was it installed?"

"Friday"

Sister Lou's eyes are still a little red, and it can be seen that she has cried, but she has returned to normal now.

"Li Wenbiao drove over and brought many people over to help with the installation."

Hearing Sister Lou calling Lao Biaozi's name, Li Xuewu was still a little uncomfortable.

"Xuewu, I haven't seen you yet."

Huang Qian came over and took care of her. At the same time, he glanced at Sister Lou and said, "I said the car arrived and the person disappeared."

"Talked something"

Li Xuewu nodded with Sister Lou and followed Huang Qian to the table tennis room.

Lou Xiao'e did not follow, however. The two of them had just finished talking about private and business matters upstairs. There were so many people at the moment, it was not convenient.

Huang Qian was fine. They met during the preparatory meeting, and he also knew that the club's money was taken from her.

As for relationships, who would take the time to inquire about her relationship with Li Xuewu? Of course Huang Qian wouldn't, and neither would anyone else.

Previously, her father told her about the arrangements for returning to Hong Kong City, but this time Li Xuewu talked about how she should operate in Hong Kong City, who to find, how to contact him, etc.

The reason why she said it so early was that she had to learn and adapt in advance.

According to Li Xuewu's requirements, she had to hand in homework, and according to the conditions Li Xuewu set for her, how should the company be run and developed.

And during this period, she had to learn how to send and recognize telegrams, because Li Xuewu was unable to set up telephone lines from the capital to Hong Kong.

But the telegraph can, and is independent.

The distance from the capital city to the port city is only over 2,000 kilometers. It seems far away now, but how far can it be?

There is no need to worry in the port city. As long as you spend money, you can buy a high-power telegraph machine, and it is commercial.

Li Xuewu was in a bit of trouble here. He asked Ji Weidong for it. Ji Weidong said that he could give it to him with all the guns he had, but not this one.

The telegraph machines in their units are all numbered. If they are missing, it will be troublesome.

Li Xuewu has prepared the installation site for wireless electricity, which is on the mountain of Miyun.

It can be kept confidential and prevent detection.

It's going to be windy soon, and no one will check this thing anymore. Maybe Li Xuewu won't need this thing when he wants to check it again.

Even if someone were to investigate, it should be Ji Weidong and others, or Yu Daru.

Hey! You said it was a coincidence or not.

If you look up the mountain, you can indeed detect the source of the signal, but you just can't check it because the mountain is closed.

This blocking time is enough for Li Xuewu to call Ji Weidong or Yu Daru.

Sister Lou, on the other hand, is tired of learning telegraphy. She now wishes she could break it in half and use it alone.

Half learning, half management.

Now it's fine, Li Xuewu broke off half of it for her again.

She is busy and she is tired. In fact, at the beginning of May, Li Xuewu is also tired, and her heart is tired.

At this moment, Huang Qian and Huang Qian were also discussing things, and deliberately found a place where no one was around.

"Hey, we can't keep the books anymore. The warehouse is full of red."

Huang Gan took a cigarette and lit it, raised his eyebrows and asked, "When do you plan to ship the goods?"

“Wait a little longer”

Li Xuewu squinted his eyes, took a puff of cigarette, and looked in the direction of the courtyard door.

Zhou Changli came out of the concierge and headed out the corner door. What was this kid doing?

"If you can't let go, I'll ask someone to take some away. Anyway, we can't rush to take action now."

Li Xuewu turned back, looked at Huang Gan and asked, "Did Hua Qing urge you?"

"No, it's none of their business."

Huang Qian shook his head indifferently and said: "I just saw that there were too many piles, so I asked you."

"It's okay. It won't take long before you feel that the warehouse is empty."

Li Xuewu looked at the door again. The boy had already gone out, and Zhao Laosi said hello to him.

"I kind of believe this."

Huang Gan didn't follow Li Xuewu to the gate, but looked at the courtyard and said, "The wind has been blowing very hard recently. My dad and the others have become cautious."

"Why!"

Seeing that Li Xuewu was not paying attention to what he said, Huang Qian hit Li Xuewu with his arm and said with a smile: "Why do I feel that it started on your wedding day? Did you stop it?"

"Get out of here! Haha~"

Li Xuewu was also amused by his words and laughed out loud. If it really had something to do with his marriage, then how much evil he and Gu Ning had done in their previous lives.

"Let me tell you clearly, close the door of your place tightly, just stop and squint inside, nothing will happen, don't get involved."

"In your words?"

Huang Qian rolled his eyes and said: "My father used to do this. I have a legacy. Do you remember five years ago? At that time..."

This kid is a talkative one. Whenever Li Xuewu gives him a chance, he talks endlessly, and he loses the chance to speak.

Seeing Master Dou coming from behind and about to leave, he left Huang Qian behind and said he was going to see him off.

Huang Qian was so angry. Just as he got excited about it, he left again and asked him if he wanted to go see a ballet, just the two of them.

Now it's better, I can only take my wife with me, three of us.

Li Xuewu's use of Master Dou to get rid of Huang Qian was not just an excuse to send Master Dou away, he really had something to do.

"Is this the end?"

"Yes, it's almost done. The second phase has begun."

Master Dou looked behind Li Xuewu and let him send him away.

"Your business is going to be booming. There are so many people here."

"It's not a business, it's a friend."

Li Xuewu corrected Master Dou with a smile. After there were no other people around him, he asked, "How are things going?"

“I actually got in touch according to the channel you gave me.”

Master Dou smiled and spoke, but his eyes involuntarily glanced left and right, as if he had done something bad for the first time.

Li Xuewu didn't care, he flicked the cigarette butt in his hand and puffed out the cigarette in his mouth.

"This is an opportunity. You can't just read books in the library, and you can't just ask knowledgeable people. You have to do it."

"Yes Yes Yes"

Master Dou nodded, agreed with Li Xuewu's point of view, and said: "I specially found a dozen reliable people, arranged various procedures, and am still learning."

"That's good!"

Li Xuewu looked at this craftsman who was unattractive, dark-faced, and exuding an honest and reliable demeanor.

"My personal suggestion is to work on the residential area project in a down-to-earth manner. It is a big project and it will probably take three to five years to complete."

At this point, Li Xuewu stopped and warned: "Don't think about how much money you can make, raise people and train troops. In three to five years, you will have a mature construction team in your hands."

"Yes, I think so too, haha"

Master Dou smiled honestly, stood near the flower hall with Li Xuewu, and said softly: "When there is work, arrange for a few to come out to work. When there is no work, they will all stay there. I just don't know if it will last long."

"Hmm~~~"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and shook his head, saying: "I won't say what that person's character is like, but if I accept your things, I will always use you. As for other jobs..."

Master Dou also mentioned it today, and Li Xuewu thought about it and said: "Unless it is important and meaningful, don't take it. It's not necessary, and it won't be easy to do other jobs in the future."

"Then I'll listen to you"

Master Dou was very obedient, and Li Xuewu did whatever he said.

"I have stopped doing the work in your yard and the guest house. I will do whatever you want me to do."

Li Xuewu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Haha, don't be like this, what I said is not necessarily right, I just saw a little more."

"Then I lack your vision. Anyway, I will listen to you."

Master Dou is really good at chatting, and his silly face has shrewd eyes.

He was not stupid. He had finally begged Li Xuewu to open his mouth and allow him to create such an engineering team. How could he let Li Xuewu run away?

Just look at how many jobs he has taken and how many projects he has taken on in the more than half a year he has known Li Xuewu.

Only fools are disobedient.

In the past, he only took his father's apprentices, uncles, brothers and others to do some small jobs. It was considered a fixed "gang".

However, this gang is also hungry and hungry, and there is not always work to do.

But since I followed Li Xuewu, there have been more and more people under his command, from three to five or seven or eight at the beginning to hundreds now.

Among the old neighbors in their area, who would mention him as a big thumb?

While leading the old brothers to have enough to eat, it also brought income to the neighbors in their area.

Unlike the recycling bin model, theirs is a manual process.

To say it is organized, it is more loose than the recycling bin.

Today he has something to do and he won't come. Tomorrow he will be sick. They don't live together like a recycling bin.

The strategy Li Xuewu set for him was small elites and big groups.

Find some people, negotiate the distribution ratio, form a group to apply for a construction team with the street, and get the official seal first.

This kind of work team consists entirely of manpower and is not controlled by the street or the higher authorities. As long as it does not produce or sell goods, there will be no business activities.

Now that I have the official seal, I can take on projects and get the money directly.

At this time, there are no qualification requirements, and there are no requirements for engineers. Anyone with connections can take the job.

What the streets are talking about is the work of building walls and tiles. Who cares about you if you participate in building a building?

The work continued over there, hiring people to do the hard work temporarily. It was no different from the one at the train station. It was settled once a day, which seemed normal.

This large group maintains it, and maybe it will be used at some point. When the time comes, isn't it the foundation for building a serious enterprise?

"I'll introduce you to someone later."

Li Xuewu signaled to Master Dou, and the two of them continued walking out, saying as they walked: "Little brother, Ben'er is interesting, and he also pays attention to people. He has some connections with architecture."

"Do you work in engineering?"

Master Dou guessed: "Is it a public institution that does this? I am looking for a master in this field."

"Well, that's right."

Li Xuewu smiled and said: "No, he is just a recent graduate, but his father is a cadre of the engineering corps and has talents in this field."

"You mean the kind who retired from the army or changed careers?"

Master Dou's eyes lit up, and then he said uncertainly: "How can our small unit, the Caotai team, recruit those people?"

"Hey! How can you say it's a small unit?"

Li Xuewu pointed out: "Small units are also units. As long as they can accept them, they can register in the capital. Who among these newly arrived people doesn't want to come to the capital to make a living?"

"This...is really hey!"

After hearing Li Xuewu's words, he gained some confidence and thought about the possibility in this regard.

"I just said I wouldn't take the job, but I really have to trouble you here."

Li Xuewu stood at the door and said with a smile: "I moved to a shipping warehouse after I got married. I have a jeep for daily transportation, but it has a soft top."

"Garage, right?"

Master Dou smiled and said: "It's not a big deal. It's just a garage. It doesn't require much work. When the time comes, I will take the people to do it myself."

"Excuse me, please use more work, preferably to keep warm."

Li Xuewu scratched his eyebrows and said: "Heating a car in this winter is really hard work. If it can keep it warm, I can put something else in it."

"I understand, then we have to lay the foundation and lay the bricks and tiles."

Master Dou thought for a while and said: "Forget it, I'll get some cement and get it right for you in one step, and then I can match it with a warehouse."

"Then it's okay to be in love, haha"

Li Xuewu smiled and asked: "Do you need me to ask about the cement?"

"No, you forgot, I told you, I have a relative in the engineering team, and they used their excavator to help you dig out the warehouse basement!"

"Oh, I remembered it"

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Then how much did it cost you for your hard work? As a rule, you will repay me in the end."

"Okay, you're busy, I'll go get ready."

Master Dou smiled and bowed his hands with Li Xuewu before going down the steps, took the bicycle and waved before leaving.

Zhao Laosi stood behind Li Xuewu and looked out the door. He always had the illusion that he had traveled back in time to ancient times, especially when Master Dou used the hand gesture.

"What did Zhou Changli do?"

"ah?"

Zhao Laosi was thinking about it when he was almost startled when Li Xuewu asked him.

"Li Chu...he..."

"You can't speak anymore?"

Li Xuewu looked him up and down and said, "Did you do something bad? Are you hesitant? Tell me!"

"No, it's really not~"

Teacher Zhao was struggling and said: "He didn't let me speak and said that if I spoke out, he would beat me."

"Hey~ Look at how promising you are, and you are still just playing around!"

Li Xuewu glanced at him with a grin on his face and said, "If you don't say so, then I will ask someone to catch him. The black bear spirit is a mountain god in Bodhisattva, but he is no longer a human being after he descends from the mountain."

"No, no, no! Li Chu!"

Zhao Laosi waved his hands repeatedly, said something in his mouth, glanced left and right, and pulled Li Xuewu through the door.

"If I said it, don't say it was me who said it!"

After saying this, without waiting for Li Xuewu to answer, he said: "His uncle is back. He went to see his uncle."

"Who? Uncle Master?"

Li Xuewu frowned and said, "He's not very good at Kung Fu. Master, he's not old or young, so where did he come from?"

"It didn't come out of nowhere..."

Zhao Laosi pulled the corner of his mouth and said hesitantly: "That's the original one here, Uncle Ding..."

"Ding Wanqiu?!"

Li Xuewu's brows suddenly opened, he stared at Zhao Laosi and said, "Ding Wanqiu is back?"

"Yes, I've been back for a few days."

Zhao Laosi said everything when he saw it, so he stopped hiding it and said bluntly: "He goes out to deliver food to his uncle every day these days, and he doesn't ask us to tell him."

"Do you know where it is?"

Li Xuewu drooped his eyelids and said: "Go, call them two over, and tell them that I asked you to go."

"Director Li, didn't you just promise not to leak me out~"

Seeing Li Xuewu asking him to call someone, Zhao Laosi was immediately unwilling.

They were just playing around, and they didn't go to the streets to ask anyone who dared to confront them head-on.

But Xiao Wan Nao is still Xiao Wan Nao. Compared with living bandits like Li Xuewu, he is still far behind.

He was afraid of Li Er's scar, and he was also afraid of Zhou's eyes!

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up. I don't have time to waste time with you."

As he spoke, he nodded to the concierge and said, "I'll just wait for him here. Don't come back in fifteen minutes."

"Ouch! You've really done me a disservice!"

Before Li Xuewu finished speaking, the four of them, Zhao and Lao, had already flown out of the door, wishing they could use their legs to run out.

Even if the street kid on the street is feared by everyone and is powerful every day, it is still the helpless behavior of young people.

If he was really so prosperous, why would he rush to work as a concierge for Li Xuewu?

This is the concierge, but this is also the ladder of progress.

They have little education, but they are not stupid!

No one who comes in and out of this gate is below the level of orthopedics. Do you think they are blind? Deaf?

As long as you work for a few years, let alone a few years, even ten years, will you be better off than a street kid? !

Li Xuewu didn't really wait in the concierge. He just stood at the gate and exchanged pleasantries with the classmates who came to the party.

He took advantage of this moment to observe. Most of the people who came here to play came by themselves, not driving.

Even Lou's father didn't seem to come by car. The car was still sitting here since he had used it.

I don't know if I really don't care about these foreign objects anymore, or if I can't get gasoline. Anyway, there is just no room in the parking space.

Li Xuewu stood there and looked at the car, thinking about when he would be able to ride in such a standard car.

As for this one, or get one?

It's not that he doesn't have the financial resources and ability, he can get even the most powerful foreign car at this time, the Mercedes-Benz.

Don't ask, just asking is about technology introduction.

The production design of Dahongqi is based on the latest Mercedes-Benz and other vehicles, and there are actually many of them.

Of course, if you go to the entrance of the Foreign Embassy, ​​there are more.

There are also Beijing hotels and other places where foreign affairs activities or special events are held. There are still luxury cars, but they are just out of reach of ordinary people.

But Li Xuewu is an ordinary citizen, and he can only stand in envy in a house with an area of ​​eight acres and more than 130 houses.

"Li...Li Chu..."

Li Xuewu was looking at the car when Zhao Laosi's voice came from behind him, followed by Zhou Changli, and standing outside the foyer was Ding Wanqiu, whom he had not seen for a long time.

"Did he hit you?"

Li Xuewu first ignored the person outside the door and the person standing in the hall. Instead, he first asked the person who was delivering the message for him.

"Didn't... didn't hit me..."

Zhao Laosi grinned and did not dare to look behind him.

Li Xuewu glanced at Zhou Changli, who had his head lowered, and sneered: "Looking at your little potential, those who are beaten dare not fight back, and those who hit others dare not admit it."

"Li Chu...I..."

"okay"

Zhou Changli raised his head to explain, but was interrupted by Li Xuewu.

He didn’t ask about the footprints on Zhao Laosi’s thigh anymore, but asked Zhou Changli: “How many children do you have?”

"ah?"

Zhou Changli was stunned, wondering what Li Xuewu meant and what he wanted to do?

After working for such a long time, do you need to submit your certificate?

"Oh shit, are you mute?"

Li Xuewu frowned and scolded him, not bothering to wait for him, and asked directly: "Do you have any brothers?"

"Yes, my second brother is two years younger than me."

Zhou Changli thought that Li Xuewu wanted to recruit troops to expand the position of the concierge, so he quickly nodded and introduced.

This is a good opportunity. If I can find a job, at least I won't have to eat from home.

My younger brother is now half grown, and it’s time to eat.

"My brother is very efficient at work and very diligent. He can clean tables, sweep floors and so on without any problem..."

He was still selling melons, but Li Xuewu frowned and said: "As long as you have younger brothers, let's go next week. I'll take a few of them with me next week. You can draw as many as you can, and leave them all to me." Go to work in Steel City."

"Next week? Steel City? Work?"

His words were interrupted by Li Xuewu. Before Zhou Changli could react, he was shocked by Li Xuewu's key information.

"What are you going to do if you don't work? Support the uncle?"

Li Xuewu looked at him and said: "What the hell are you? You are so edible. How can I feed you if you don't work?"

After speaking, he nodded to Zhao Laosi and said: "He doesn't need to go, he stays."

"ah?"

After Zhou Changli finished speaking, Zhao Laosi got up. He was thinking just now that his concierge had just packed up and had to leave before he had enough room.

Or Steel City? Where is Steel City?

This news was too sudden, but the news that followed was even more sudden. He didn't have to go, he was still the concierge.

"Don't you like the concierge? Work hard from now on and help me fix this door."

Li Xuewu nodded at him, then turned to Zhou Changli and said: "Think about what you have done before, think about what your brothers have done, there is no place for you in this capital, and whoever wants to die will die." Don’t listen to me, pack up and get out.”

Just saying this, Li Xuewu went to greet Ding Wanqiu, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time.

"yes!"

Just as Li Xuewu took a step forward, Zhao Laosi's voice of surprise came from behind him.

This is a good job by the concierge. He has been upgraded to a third housekeeper!

Zhou Changli was still in shock, and he didn't care about Steel City. He was thinking about what Li Xuewu just said about the capital city.

Who is Li Xuewu?

That was the deputy director in charge of public security in the branch, the living king of hell who made their legs tremble when they saw him.

Is what he said accurate?

If what he says is inaccurate, it's not accurate.

When I think of what they have done before, combined with what Li Xuewu just said...

Is this capital really intolerable to them?

Then...why did Li Xuewu help them?

Can you escape by going to Steel City? Or Li Xuewu has other uses for scum like them.

This not only made him think about more things, but also things that he could not consider at his age, but should consider them.

Young people, who doesn’t have the dream to travel to the end of the world with a sword, but they just can’t go out for fear of not being able to come back.

Looking at Zhao Laosi Lepi Yanzi, Zhou Changli no longer thought of kicking him, turned around and glanced outside the door, then went into the concierge.

Outside the door, there was a rather dramatic scene.

When he left, Ding Wanqiu never expected that he would come back so early.

It's not like I haven't thought about coming back to see it again, but that's all I'll think about when I'm ready to die of old age.

What he is thinking now is, what is the most painful thing in the world?

The money is gone, but people are still alive.

People are alive, but the house is gone.

"Brother, I'm surprised."

Li Xuewu looked at Ding Wanqiu's embarrassment, but he didn't say anything hypocritical.

"First, I was surprised by your news, and second, I was surprised that you came back but avoided me."

"Ashamed, I'm just a lost dog."

Ding Wanqiu lowered his head in shame, not daring to look at Li Xuewu's face.

Once upon a time, he was standing inside the door and Li Xuewu was standing outside.

At this moment, Li Xuewu was standing inside the door, and he was standing outside.

Time has reversed and fortune has played a trick on people. How could he have the dignity to visit her?

We were not the same people before. We had common interests and got to know each other in Weimo, which was how we were originally destined to be together.

But now, he has no money and no land, so how can he dare to climb the steps here.

Li Xuewu looked at him again and asked, "You haven't eaten yet?"

Ding Wanqiu didn't answer, just stood there feeling lonely.

“Then eat the mutton pot”

Li Xuewu said: "It's the restaurant where you invited me to eat last time. I still remember the taste. It's very authentic."

After finishing speaking, he walked up to Ding Wanqiu and raised his hand to signal, then walked down the steps and went to the alley opposite.

Behind him, Ding Wanqiu was in tears, unable to make a sound.

Children of the world, morality and justice come first.

He couldn't afford to eat, so it was a tradition in the family to find his nephew.

However, Li Xuewu could remember his old friendship and not care about him, a person he should never see again in his life, but how could he not be moved.

It's the same small restaurant, same location, same hot pot and mutton.

It's just that today, the two people have different mentality.

What is endless is the sorrow and joy of the world, and what is endless is the sadness of the times.

Ding Wanqiu was sympathetic to his misfortune, but Li Xuewu had no intention of rejoicing in his misfortune.

If it weren't for the power of the times, how would he be qualified to sit at the same table as the young man in front of him.

"Come, for a reunion"

Li Xuewu filled up the wine glass in front of Ding Wanqiu, poured his own, and raised it for a toast.

Ding Wanqiu also brought wine, and after touching it with Li Xuewu, he mixed it with his old tears and poured it into his stomach together.

After taking the wine bottle and filling it up for the two of them, Li Xuewu picked up a chopstick of mutton and put it directly into his mouth without touching the ingredients in the bowl.

"Well, it still smells the same!"

Li Xuewu nodded towards the restaurant manager who looked over and said hello.

The restaurant manager is also the former shopkeeper, but he has changed his identity and lost his shares.

"You and Master Ding are here, how dare we fool you?"

The manager joked, cupped his hands to Ding Wanqiu and said, "I'd like to say hello to you."

"Okay...Okay, thank you"

Ding Wanqiu almost didn't say the first thing he said. He wiped his tears and then thanked him.

The manager just bowed slightly and went to the back, leaving the small lobby to Li Xuewu and the other two.

"Come, eat meat"

Li Xuewu didn't ask him what he had experienced or why he came back, but just advised him to eat more.

Ding Wanqiu also didn't say why he was in such a miserable state, nor did he say who framed him.

The two of them had a rare tacit understanding. They only clinked glasses and said nothing.

Li Xuewu didn't ask, which meant he didn't care about his past or whether he was still a human being.

I won't stand up for him, nor vent my anger on him. I will only provide him with a mouthful of food in times of crisis.

Ding Wanqiu didn't say anything, which meant that he didn't ask Li Xuewu to help him clean up the past. He could still handle it by himself.

It's just that for today's meal, he appreciated it, followed me, moved his chopsticks, nothing else, this life is still there.
