Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 353 Is it more than one billion?

"The small things required by the city have been agreed upon. You need to decide on the important ones. Speaking of this, I have to thank Fu Hua. It may be of great help!" Xia Guoqiang said with emotion. Street gangsters can sometimes make big mistakes

use.

"How can he help?" Li Weidong asked doubtfully. Fu Hua is the name of Doubian. He is used to being called Doubian, so it was quite sudden to hear his name.

"I'm not sure yet. He knows a friend, he seems to be named Sha Junjun. He's quite wild. He can find out about the mayor's office meeting!"

"Sha Xiaojun?" Li Weidong said.

"Yes, my name is Sha Xiaojun. Fu Hua said that this person told him that the city has held several office meetings specifically for the machinery factory, and the day before yesterday there was another meeting on a topic!"

"There are only two points that need to be decided by you. One is the price. The bottom line set by the city is one-third lower than the price they are talking about now. We still have a lot of room to discuss!"

"The second thing is that employees cannot be fired. We talked about it and said it was a matter of principle. In fact, the city has begun to compromise. This is to comfort the people in the factory!"

"If what he said is true, let's find out their bottom line and talk tomorrow. It will be much easier!"

information.

Li Weidong smiled and shook his head. Secrets could be leaked in such a serious meeting as the mayor's office meeting.

This was the second time he heard that Sha Xiaojun was related to the machinery factory. Doubian also said it last time. He learned from Sha Xiaojun that someone reported the machinery factory with a real name, and the city was ready to investigate!

Looking at it now, the news at that time was still very accurate, which shows that Sha Xiaojun still had some worries.

In other words, the news this time should not be a big problem. It is worthy of belief and can at least be used as a direction to discuss.

But Sha Xiaojun must be so active, he must have a plan, but it is good to have a plan, but it is terrible to be afraid of having no plan.

If it looks like this, Sha Xiaojun is quite an interesting person. How could someone who is so aware of current affairs possibly fight with others?

Being able to find out this information shows that he still had some connections in the city back then, but why he resigned and went to work.

It was Li Weidong who proposed firing employees. How many of a company with five to six hundred people can generate value?

Li Weidong remembers that at this time, the number of people in functional departments in the machinery factory was about the same as the number of front-line workers in the workshop.

This is not what a manufacturing enterprise should look like. There are nearly a hundred people in a general office, which is more than the number of people in a workshop.

And these people usually drink tea, chat, and eat melon seeds, but when the critical moment comes, they can't be seen and they talk about being busy every day.

Of course, expulsion is not the goal. They need to let them know that everyone may be expelled and maintain a certain sense of crisis.

Nowadays, the awareness of the iron rice bowl is very strong, and it cannot be put down when it is picked up. Everyone thinks that no one can do anything with this.

And with this kind of awareness, how can we have a sense of crisis and how can we give full play to people's subjective initiative?

Especially those who have no desires or desires. They don't seek promotion or get rich. They just want a cup of tea and a newspaper every day until they retire. No one can control them.

If this person has no ideas, it will be a disaster, so people with desires can often achieve more achievements.

"All employees must pass the assessment before they can take up the job. Those who fail can be given training. If they still fail after training, they will have no choice but to be laid off!"

"If this news is implemented further, if it is true, this will be easier to handle, and the price will be easy to negotiate, but we must be tough when we need to be tough, and we will save money if we can, and the savings will be given to the enterprises!"

"This is different from the bride price for marrying a girl. Marrying a girl can also dress her up beautifully and buy a dowry. This is selling a business and has no use for the business itself!"

Xia Guoqiang smiled and thought Li Weidong's metaphor was quite interesting, but that was actually what happened.

When Li Weidong arrived home, he saw Doubiang as expected. Doubian was in charge of repairing and repairing the house for this kilometer. He was very busy at work and didn't even take a break in such a hot day, but the workers couldn't stand it.

"On such a hot day, let them rest for a while before working. Go buy some cold drinks to cool down and avoid heatstroke!" Li Weidong got out of the car and took a look at the front yard. It was almost there. Several people were installing green tiles on the roof.

"Okay, brother, I'll let someone buy it right now!" Doubian obeyed Li Weidong's orders.

Seeing Li Weidong enter the yard, he shouted to a few people on the roof: "Come down and cool down for a while, Second Soldier, go buy some ice cream to let everyone cool down, buy a few good ones and send them over!"

"Thank you, boss!" Several people on the roof shouted happily after hearing this. They were familiar with the bean cakes, so you were welcome.

"Nonsense, what kind of boss am I?" Doubian looked at Li Weidong who had entered the yard with a guilty conscience.

Normally he would just agree to what they called him, but Li Weidong was here and he didn't dare to give them the courage to do anything. It would be bad if Li Weidong misunderstood something.

Doubi followed him into the yard and quickly fetched Li Weidong a basin of water from the spring so that Li Weidong could wash away the dust.

"Is what Sha Xiaojun told you reliable?" Li Weidong asked casually while washing his hands.

"Brother, I can't guarantee this. I know I can't joke about this. I asked him again and again yesterday. How about I go check it out again tonight?"

Doubian knew what was going on as soon as he heard Li Weidong's words. He didn't know that Li Weidong was back, otherwise he would definitely tell Li Weidong personally, and how could he give the credit to others.

Seeing that Li Weidong was serious, he didn't dare to guarantee it anymore. He told everything he knew because he was afraid that Sha Xiaojun wouldn't tell the truth!

"No!" Li Weidong originally wanted to ask Doubiang to explore, but he thought wrongly. If Doubiang went there, Sha Xiaojun would definitely guess that it was him who asked.

It's not worth owing a favor to someone for this matter. Sha Xiaojun took the initiative to say it, and Li Weidong took the initiative to ask, which are two different things.

Doubi was dumbfounded and couldn't figure out what was going on, but he definitely couldn't do what his elder brother told him not to do!

"Brother Hao Le, but I think Sha Xiaojun won't dare to trick you even if he has the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard!"

Seeing that Li Weidong was okay, Doubian reported on his work. He thought he was doing a good job.

"Brother, all the houses in this row have been transferred. Mr. Wei didn't want to sell them at first, but I heard that you bought them, so he agreed very simply!"

"Mr. Wei has also moved away?" Li Weidong was wiping his face, stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief.

"Ah, we've moved, it's not that far away. We're in Courtyard No. 3. I'm looking for someone to help me!"

"Hey, if a pile of documents hadn't fallen out when we moved, I wouldn't have known that the old man was still a great expert before he retired. His retirement salary is higher than that of Mr. Yu!"

Doubiang said with emotion. Li Weidong was stunned when he heard this, but then he was relieved. Those Russian drawings could be translated by ordinary people!

"I'll take two boxes of good wine over in two days to celebrate Mr. Wei's move to a new house!" Li Weidong said, wiping his face. He couldn't pretend that he didn't know if someone was giving him face.

Li Weidong wanted to call his mother and wife to report that they were safe. He looked at the time and found that Liu Jinhui should be resting in his office at this time.

He picked up the phone and dialed, and when the other party connected, he heard that it was Liu Jinhui's voice. Li Weidong put a towel on his head and pretended to be serious and said: "Is Comrade Li Weidong here?"

"She's not here, who are you?" Liu Jinhui hesitated and asked tentatively. It was very difficult for this call to come in. At least it had to go through the secretary or assistant on duty first.

Li Weidong was not here, and the assistant came in. There was a problem in itself, but his voice sounded familiar and unfamiliar. The key point was that the title was a bit strange. Liu Jinhui was not sure what the situation was, so he simply used the honorific.

"It's okay if he's not here. He was kidnapped by us. Are you his target? Hurry and prepare a ransom of one billion!" Li Weidong still said through the towel.

"We are really kidnapped by you. How can we have one billion? Can we ask for less? And if we can't come up with it, are you going to break up the vote?"

"Of course, but as long as you give him money, we will definitely release him and let him go back safely. It's fine if it's less, but if it's less than 10 million, I'll chop your husband with a knife!"

"Then you can chop him a hundred times, or you can kill him. We really have no money. Tell him, we mothers will miss him!"

"You bitches are so cruel. You don't even want your husband anymore. You tear up the vote and chop him with a knife. Do you think you are fighting for Xixi? If you chop him off like this, all the bones will be gone?"

Li Weidong no longer needed a towel and said angrily.

"Isn't this to cooperate with your acting? As long as you are happy!" Liu Jinhui giggled from the opposite side.

"I'm happy? I think you are happy. Tell me, I'm already home. I'm going to meet my father-in-law for a few drinks tonight. Do you have any other orders?"

"You are stupid and you still blame me. Who can call you and ask for one billion? Are you crazy?"

"Is it more than one billion?" Li Weidong said with a smile, but suddenly he stopped laughing. The gangsters of that century just asked the richest man in China for a ransom of one billion.

Hong Kong Island doesn't seem to be safe either. The parents-in-law each have four bodyguards, which may not guarantee their safety.

"By the way, one more thing. Qiao Rui gave me a long-distance call last night. It seemed like there was something wrong. If you have time, go and see her!" Liu Jinhui said inexplicably.

"Is it appropriate for me to visit her?" Li Weidong said in a low voice. It is not appropriate no matter how you think about it, asking him, a man, to visit an older, high-quality young woman!

"What's inappropriate? She's not an outsider. I always feel like she has something to tell me, but she can't open her mouth!" Liu Jinhui said nonchalantly.

"If you're not an outsider, you're an insider!" Li Weidong said smoothly. After saying this, he realized that this was very wrong. How could he call someone an insider randomly?

"That's not what I meant. To put it bluntly, it was unintentional, unintentional!" Li Weidong quickly explained.

"Really, you just have this intention, you have to make others like you!" Liu Jinhui's voice was so calm that Li Weidong couldn't hear if there was any other meaning in his words.

"Then should I go or not?" Li Weidong asked uncertainly. Pregnant women have very weird personalities and their tempers are hard to figure out.

"It's up to you. Go if you have time. If you don't have time, leave her alone. I'll call her in two days!"

"Then I'd better go. I'll go when I find time. Don't worry, it should be fine!" Li Weidong heard Liu Jinhui's thoughts. If he made a profit, he probably wouldn't be able to get out.

"If I knew, I wouldn't need you to go!"

After chatting about other things for a while, Li Weidong said a few words to pay attention to safety and then hung up the phone.

Li Weidong felt that security needed to be strengthened. It was okay for the kidnappers to ask for a ransom, as long as they paid it, but the process was too scary and it would be bad if he got a heart attack.

"Brother, when did you come back? What were you thinking about? Did you eat ice cream?" Li Weihong patted Li Weidong on the shoulder and said.

After hanging up the phone, Li Weidong was thinking about security. He was startled by Li Weihong and subconsciously wanted to throw her over his shoulder. He held her hand before he felt something was wrong.

"What are you doing? You are so startled that you scare people to death." Li Weidong said with disgust.

"Who scared you? I saw you stood there for a long time. I gave you a piece of ice cream to eat. You were so kind. You almost pulled me and dislocated my joint. Look at the big handprints that are all red!" Li Weihong said aggrievedly.

As he spoke, he raised his hand to show Li Weidong. Sure enough, there was a faint red fingerprint on his wrist.

"Hypocritical, isn't it just a handprint? If you don't eat the ice cream, you can use it to apply cold compress for a while and it will be gone. What were you doing just now? Why didn't I see you when I came back?"

"Yan Fang came home. I took her to the station and just came back. The bean cakes are being divided into ice creams. I will bring you one. The chocolate cream one is delicious!"

Li Weihong stopped being pretentious. She held the ice cream and handed it to Li Weidong. If she acted coquettishly with his brother, wouldn't she have found the wrong person?

"I don't want to eat. You can eat. Be careful of getting upset. If you're okay, pack up in the next two days and go to Hong Kong Island first. Your parents miss you and the admission procedures have been completed!"

"It's so fast. Why don't you come with me?" Li Weihong was both panicked and surprised.

She was a little scared to think about walking such a long distance by herself or taking a plane alone, but she was quite excited to think about finally going to school on Hong Kong Island.

"I still have something to do. I'll leave in a few days. I've found a school for you. I'll go to a one-month intensive Cantonese class first. Don't worry, I won't be able to understand English and can't speak Cantonese by then. Going to class will be like listening to a book from heaven!"

"It's not that bad. I've been learning English recently and I've memorized all the CET-6 words!"

"What's the use of memorizing words? You have to be able to speak them yourself and let others understand what you say!"

Li Weihong glanced at Li Weidong and was speechless. What else could she do? She couldn't be reasonable, nor could she be beaten unreasonably.

Anyway, her brother now enjoys beating her, the best way is not to say anything, ignore him, let him be strong, the breeze blows on the hills.

In the evening, Li Weidong went to his father-in-law's house to report. It would be unreasonable if he didn't see his father-in-law when he came.

The father-in-law was very happy to see Li Weidong, which made Li Weidong flattered. He thought it was because the father-in-law missed him!

However, his mother-in-law's words gave Li Weidong a critical hit of 10,000 points in his little heart, and he was almost killed instantly.

"Xiao Bo has a daughter-in-law, and I haven't told you about it for only two months!" The mother-in-law's eyes were originally quite big, but she smiled for a long time, and she probably saw a line in the sky now.

"This is a great event, Dad, let's have a few more drinks tonight!" Li Weidong is good at cheering. If his father-in-law is happy and his mother-in-law is happy, he has to be happy too.

However, it is a joyful thing to have someone come in. No matter who encounters it, he should say a few auspicious words to seek good luck.

"Yes, have two drinks. I'll call Xiaobo and ask them to come back!" Li Weidong suggested, Liu Yongliang agreed, and the matter was passed without any trouble.

Li Weidong looked at his father-in-law who was excitedly making phone calls and found it a bit disgusting. When his wife was pregnant with Li Qian, he almost walked away from death, and his father-in-law was not happy.

When I was pregnant with my second child, although I was happy, I could tell at a glance that I was a little reluctant. Although I was a little worried, at the bottom of my heart it was because my son was different from my daughter.

After Liu Jinbo and Feng Xin arrived, Li Weidong felt that the gap was not as big as usual.

Yang Limei greeted Feng Xin with greetings, fearing that something was not to her liking, so she came first with the delicious food and the pregnant comrade.

Of course Li Weidong also knew that this was not for Feng Xin, but for the grandson in Feng Xin's belly.

However, Li Weidong remembered that in his previous life, his brother-in-law's first child was a girl like his. It is said that the father-in-law and mother-in-law privately said that this was going to end the inheritance!

But my wife has changed in this life, so I really can’t tell.

His Li Weidong's first child has changed, who can say for sure.

Liu Jinbo was very happy. Although he had always said that he would wait until he had a child, when the child actually came, the joy of being a father could not be described verbally.

If you have parents, you will have a place to come from, and if you have children, you will have a destination. It is a blood inheritance. Even if you are gone one day, there will be someone to see the world for you, and occasionally remember you.

Li Weidong drank a lot, and Liu Jinbo drank even more, talking grandly about working hard for his children.
