A leisurely life reborn in the fiery age

Chapter 443: The world has changed for the better, and Yuanzi has become a good person (-word update, please vote for me!)
February 4, 1994, was a heartbreaking day for Hong Kong stock investors.

In fact, with the extension of the most favorable treatment treatment for the mainland by the United States last year, and the hot-cold pattern officially formed, even if China and the UK failed to reach a conclusion in nearly 20 negotiations, they still could not stop the Hang Seng Index from rising steadily. .

A large number of British, Japanese and American funds poured into Hong Kong stocks, making the market a hot mess.

According to common sense, no matter how you calculate it, there is no reason to overturn. Even some people on Wall Street did not expect that the Federal Reserve would announce an interest rate increase today...

At present, some people analyzed that this was because Meili Guo had some indigestion after eating a lot on the corpses of the two giants, the Mao Xiong and the Foot Pot Chicken, and had a fat belly and a thick waist, so she started to lose weight.

In fact, this is not the case. Looking back in a few years, people will understand how the greedy Ansa people can be satisfied?

This sudden cut will certainly hurt some Wall Street funds, but the hardest hit will only be the half-dead Japanese capital.

How cruel!
Tsk tsk, how does the beautiful father pamper his son? If you are interested, you can learn more.

From the moment they knelt down in 1985, the Japanese must have thought that the father of the beautiful country would kill them severely and survive, so Japanese capital invested heavily overseas, especially in Southeast Asia and South America.

But the Japanese certainly didn't expect that their beautiful country father didn't even want to leave this escape route for them.

Perhaps it was only after that that the beautiful father-in-law in the mouth of the Japanese turned into a white-skinned ghost...

It is really hard for ordinary people to imagine what the Japanese slaves on that island went through in the 1990s...

It was like being pushed to the ground by a big man and being castrated.

The Hong Kong stock market in 1994 was actually just a small shrimp damaged by the marginal wind.

Compared with the United States and Japan, the two most developed countries with the largest and second largest economies in the world, Hong Kong Island is just a little pitiful creature.

But for the wealthy businessmen on Hong Kong Island, including the wealth funds that have invested heavily, it is really a mess.

From the moment the Federal Reserve announced an interest rate hike on February 4th and the U.S. bond market collapsed, the Hang Seng Index fell 900 points and began a year-long decline.

On this day, from the moment the market opened, panic selling in the trading floor caused trading phones to go offline...

Although this stock market crash is not as gloomy as the one in 1987, it is also not as devastating as the one in 1972.

But in terms of the amount of evaporated funds, it is even worse.

No. , Deep Water Bay.

Li Jiacheng's breakfast was tasteless, even though his wife served him a plate of pickles.

The eldest son Li Zeju, who has only been married for a year, looks a bit childish, but in fact, senior executives within the Cheung Kong Group praise him for being low-key, steady and mature.

He can serve as an example for the princes of various families.

He was quite active at home. After breakfast, Li Zeju looked at Li Jiacheng and said, "Dad, it doesn't make sense." He pointed to the morning newspaper on the side.

Li Jiacheng said "Huh" and smiled: "It won't have much impact on Cheung Kong and Hutchison Whampoa. Taking advantage of the low price, we can buy back some stocks."

Li Zeju still couldn't understand, shook his head and said: "But how could the time be so accurate? He even ate up a wave of dividends from our family."

The market value of Li Jiacheng's two listed companies is not high, just because of the high annual dividends.

The Li family's annual dividends amount to tens of billions, and most of these funds are used to invest in other companies.

Therefore, the rich list’s valuation of the Li family’s wealth is far lower than their actual wealth.

Even so, when the Li family of Tang Dynasty hid their wealth from the public through Hang Seng Bank, the CK and Li family were the well-deserved richest people in Hong Kong Island.

But they know in their hearts that in terms of wealth and strength, they are already more than a step behind the Tang Dynasty...

But even for this reason, Datang Financial actually wanted to take a wave of dividends and dump CK Hutchison's stocks, looking as ugly as a kindergarten kid.

The point is, there is no reason why the time should be so accurate.

Not even most Wall Street tycoons know when the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates.

Li Jiacheng wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, looked at his eldest son and said, "Victor, don't think so much. Whether others walk faster or slower will not affect our pace. Sometimes, too much speculation leads to bad luck. Too good is not a good thing. Especially when they are used to getting rich by luck."

Li Zeju nodded and said, "Dad, I understand."

Li Zekai on the side curled his lips and felt funny in his heart. Wasn't it because the Li family could get to where they are today because of several major stock market crashes in Hong Kong?
He returned to Hong Kong Island in 1990 and joined the Lee Family and Wong Asset Management Committee.

In 1991, he founded StarTV with US$400 million given by Li Jiacheng. Through various financial means, he made a profit of at least US$5 billion after a series of operations.

Last year, StarTV was directly sold to the media tycoon Murdoch, who was born in Australia and made a fortune for US$950 million, and founded the Yingke Group.

In terms of limelight, his brother Li Zeju is not worthy of carrying his shoes.

Just last month, he became a member of the World Economic Forum and was selected as one of Time magazine's 100 new generation global leaders.

Even his father has never been so prosperous at his age.

Of course, the loss this time was a bit heavy, with the book loss exceeding 8 billion...

However, his brother was unwilling to pick up any of the pots, so he asked with concern: "Richard, are you okay with your losses?"

Li Zekai was speechless for this bitchy elder brother. As early as when he was studying in the United States, the two brothers had not been in contact with each other for many years.

Li Zeju got married last year. As his only biological brother, Li Zekai didn't show up in the car until the bride was brought home. He was scolded by Zhuang Yueming...

If it weren't for Zhuang Yueming, this rebellious boy would probably be able to punch his bitch brother right now!

He sneered and said: "What's the point of not losing money? I'm not a short-term speculator. If I keep it for a year, I don't believe it won't come back!"

Hearing this, Li Zeju shook his head repeatedly and said: "Such a large interest rate increase will take less than two years and it will be difficult to recover." Then he did not give Li Zekai, who was on the verge of going berserk, a chance to get angry and said: "Dad, I have an appointment with Li Si for a drink today. Tea. He will fly to the mainland in the afternoon. In a hurry, I will go see him."

Li Jiacheng was very appreciative, nodded and said: "Make more friends. The Li family of the Tang Dynasty is not worth learning from, and they will be crucified by the United States sooner or later. But their nine children are all very friendly to each other."

Li Zeju nodded in agreement: "Yes, dad, David has a surly character and acts both righteous and evil, but he respects his eldest brother very much. It is said that in order to prevent others from thinking that he has the idea of ​​competing with his own brother for the Datang Group, he That’s why he has been hiding in the United States and refused to come back. This kind of virtue is definitely worth learning.”

Li Zekai on the side suddenly "squeaked" and vomited out his breakfast...

Li Zeju: "..."

Li Jiacheng: "..."

……

In the Li family, Lou Xiao'e and a large group of people set off for Kai Tak Airport. Li Yuan first crossed Luohu with Gao Weihong, Liu Xuefang, his daughter-in-law Atlanna, and his grandson Li Yi who needed his care and flew to the capital at Pengcheng Airport.

Many years ago, Li Yuan no longer took the same flight as Lou Xiao'e.

If something happens to him, with Lou Xiaoe and Li Xing here, the Li family can survive.

And as long as he is here, "accidents" will not happen to family members first.

That bastard Li Si felt that it was not exciting enough because of this...

The eldest children in the team, Li Rui, Li Zhi, and Li Ying, are the happiest because there are dozens of children of their own age in Sijiu City. They can make people laugh just by hearing the different accents, and they fight and play every day. Noisy, don't be too happy!
It’s not that there aren’t kids here on Hong Kong Island, but among the boys in their circle, the queen is always afraid of them, and they don’t have much energy.

My relatives back home in Mainland China have more tigers. They don’t cry much when they are beaten. If they cry, they will be beaten again by adults.

During the summer vacation, we went together to serve as soldiers in Er Tang Bo’s military camp for a month. Hey, we almost collapsed at first, but later we liked it quite a bit. I miss you so much...

Lou Xiao'e has no trouble raising these grandchildren at all, because Annuo is here, and Annuo takes care of the younger brothers, which is more useful than the adults...

Li Xing sent his mother and her group to the airport, where they took a commercial airliner, with the adults in first class and the children in economy class.

He Pingshi kept telling Li Xing to eat on time, while Cao Yongshan told the four ordinary-looking but capable girls to take care of their auspicious and wishful lives.

In recent years, Cao Yongshan's identity as sister-in-law has become more and more popular in the Li family.

Not only on Hong Kong Island, but also on the mainland.

"Let's go, let's board the plane!"

Lou Xiao'e urged her two daughters-in-law. The other two daughters-in-law, Zhao Yazhi and Zhou Huimin, flew to Shenghai the day before yesterday to meet Tian Ling there for the company's year-end meeting.

After watching the whole family enter the boarding gate, Ji Xiang and Ruyi who came to see them off hurriedly left. Not even Li Xing, Li Si, and Fugui were waiting.

Li Si was quite envious: "The fourth and fifth sons are very energetic."

Li Xing smiled and said: "No matter how powerful my father is, he is helpless in the field of science. This is the weakness of the Li family. Jixiang and Ruyi are now senior vice presidents. They help me share the development of computer software and hardware. They work very hard."

As for the fact that my father occasionally came up with something and then promoted the rapid development of Datang Research Institute, there is no need to talk about it.

Those things are obviously shady, and my father has no idea of ​​the use of those things.

This is normal. If my father knew this field well, he would really become a god.

The three brothers were about to leave the airport, each with their own things to do, but they found themselves surrounded by countless reporters...

"Li Sheng, did Datang know in advance the news of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates?"

"Li Sheng, some media broke the news that the second son of the Li family has a close relationship with Greenspan's confidante Barbara..."

Originally, the three brothers were silent, but after hearing this, Li Si stopped and replied: "Please, Barbara is very beautiful, but she is already over sixty this year, and she is close to my wife." They're just friends. Besides, Greenspan's current wife is Andrea Michelle, so gossip should be more professional and reliable, okay?"

Li Xing laughed, pressed his second brother's neck, and said, "You're done. It was originally a love triangle between you, Greenspan, and Barbara, but now it's become a four-corner relationship." After speaking, he simply said to the reporters: "Datang Finance is completely in charge of my cousin Lou Zhize, and this decision to sell was made by him alone. Because in the financial market, I really have no talent, and none of our brothers have this talent. , so we won’t touch these things. You are asking the wrong person when you ask us.”

After saying that, with the help of the Li family's bodyguards, he rushed out of the airport and drove away.

"Brother, Cousin Aze looks like he's not humming, and the meat is not crackling. He released a satellite this time. It's really magical. I can't even figure out how he had a premonition of this wave of interest rate hikes. "

After getting in the car, Li Si smiled at Li Xing.

Li Xingdao: "Dad trusts him very much. Do you still think he's not good?"

Fugui chuckled in the back row and said, "Brother, if you push cousin Aze out, aren't you afraid that it will cause him trouble?"

Li Xing shook his head and said: "It has been done several times. It is time to give him the honor he deserves. In the words of the ancients, if a man returns to his body wrapped in horse leather, what he wants all his life is to make his wife a shadow? Cousin Aze is now There is no shortage of money, but if the Lou family wants to become the first-class wealthy family in Hong Kong, it still lacks fame and glory. This is what dad means."

Li Si clicked his tongue and said: "Grandpa should really thank me. My uncle and uncle ruined all the wealth that grandpa had accumulated throughout his life. Grandpa almost died with his eyes open. Now my cousin Aze is about to be cultivated by my father to become the Greens of Hong Kong Island." Pan, the Lou family has soared into the sky, and grandpa Quanxia Youzhi can let his uncle go... Hey, this is the Kowloon Walled City, what are you doing here?"

Li Xing stopped the car, Fugui got off the car and said with a smile: "Look at Xiaoba, stretch your muscles again. Second brother, see you in the capital!"

Li Xing continued to drive and said with a smile: "Our eighth brother insists on staying here to paint amazing paintings. I flew to the capital with him when he was thirty, and came back on the second day of junior high to continue. I didn't expect that our family would actually produce such an amazing painting." great painter."

Li Si nodded and said: "American Art has praised him, but are the affairs between him, those actresses, and Fat Peng's daughter true? How is it possible?!"

Li Xingle couldn't help but said: "This is called the real person not showing his face. The second brother is much better than you were back then!"

Li Si was also happy. In a blink of an eye, he arrived at Wong Tai Sin Temple. Li Xing said, "Is this the date?"

Li Si smiled and nodded, opened the door and got out of the driveway: "Brother, see you in the capital."

He will fly directly to the capital later, while the other brothers will have to wait until New Year's Eve to return.

Li Xing smiled and nodded, glanced at a young man waiting there not far away, smiled and waved, and then drove away.

"I just said you picked the right place. Seeing how unlucky you are, you should come here to burn incense!"

As soon as Li Xing left, Li Si's whole temperament changed. His stern eyes always gave people a sinister, arrogant but powerful and domineering feeling.

Li Zeju's expression became increasingly gloomy. Standing next to Li Si, he looked more and more like a weakling, like a newly graduated college student.

But the resources he can mobilize now can number in the billions or tens of billions.

Li Zeju complained: "It's unlucky for you to encounter such bad things like mine! David, we haven't seen each other for several years, and you are still working as a gangster in the United States?"

"Snapped!"

Li Si stretched out his hand and touched the back of his head, and scolded with a smile: "Damage your father! How long have the five major families in New York been so cool, and you still need to embarrass the Hand."

Li Zeju asked curiously: "Don't you have a very good relationship with Gotti of the Gambino family? That person is so arrogant, how can he be so cool?"

Li Si sneered and said, "Of course it's because of selling fans. Castellano of the Gambino family stubbornly objected to selling fans, but Gotti sent someone to shoot him down on 46th Street with a semi-automatic rifle. Gotti started to go crazy. Selling fans, this guy thinks that old and beautiful women are all fools. Hey, don’t you, a street fighter, look down on the red sticks of the society the most? Why do you always ask so many questions about the world? Xiao Daomao, let me tell you that you have the heart to be a popular stick. , you still don’t admit it! Hahaha!”

The two of them entered the Wong Tai Sin Temple. Li Zeju blinked from time to time, probably due to the sequelae of dry eye syndrome, and said: "Damn it, I'm so stupid! I just care about you. Burn some incense to bless you." Don't let the Gray Hand kill you. You definitely didn't tell your dad that you were shot the year you first arrived."

Li Si laughed and said, "You were still crying like a girl at that time. Damn it, others will misunderstand that we are gay, okay?"

Li Zeju smiled and cursed: "Fake! I have a wife!"

It was also because after that time, Li Zeju persuaded Li Si several times to study hard and stop being a gangster. Then the two broke up on bad terms, and their friends since kindergarten gradually drifted apart.

Later, when he was studying in the United States, he was bullied on campus. Li Si, who was passing by, casually defeated the basketball captain in the past two years. The small conflicts in the past were nothing but interesting memories now...

After lighting incense at Chisong Fairy Temple and paying homage, the two of them sat on the stone steps in front of the temple and chatted.

"Your Tang Dynasty is really unreasonable and can make any money. Hey, are you really having an affair with Greenspan's wife? Wall Street's money has been ruined, and your family is making a lot of money?"

Li Zeju asked, but after finishing the question, he added: "I'm actually really curious, how come a person like you only has two wives and no other girlfriends?"

Li Si laughed and scolded: "Fuck on the street! Who are you looking down on? I've slept with more girls than you have ever seen!"

Li Zeju curled his lips, but soon laughed again and said: "Your brother is more powerful." Then he thought of his younger brother, and suddenly he looked unhappy again.

He can still pretend in front of his father, but he really doesn’t want to pretend in front of his friends...

Li Si looked amused and said, "Your brother has been quite famous in the past two years. Are you jealous of him?"

Li Zeju kicked his ass and said: "Holy crap! Am I jealous of him? All because of speculation using my father's brand name, he took 400 million US dollars to fight, made 5 billion in a few years, and his face is as big as his butt. This He will lose at least 20 billion each time, and I think he will have to rely on my father to save him in the end."

Li Si laughed loudly and asked: "Do you want me to help you kill him? I don't want more, just give one third of Hutchison."

Li Zeju raised his middle finger!

Li Sile said: "Okay, just be tough and don't regret it!"

Li Zeju didn't take it seriously. He smiled and said, "David, forget it when you come back. In the United States, we are just outsiders after all. How big is Wang An Computer? It made three billion US dollars a year, but it turned out to be a failure." ? Somewhat inexplicable. If others scare you, they will not be cruel to you in the United States, but they will not let you really grow up. There are countless people staring at you. Although Hong Kong Island is small, it can radiate to the entire East Asia and Southeast Asia are regarded as continents, with a population of two billion, so why can’t we play well?”

Li Si smiled and said, "Let's talk about it. Hey, I heard that you introduced a girl to your father. Is it true?"

"Idiot! Believe it or not, I'm going to beat you?"

"boom!"

……

In Beijing in 1994, the area outside the Second Ring Road was still a suburb, but large areas of construction sites were already being developed.

The roads on the main street are wide and it is a paradise for red Xiali, Jinmen Daifa and bicycle army, but there are still few mules and carriages...

McDonald's and Pizza Hut have appeared on the streets, but there are no people queuing up.

"Go home! Go home!"

After Datang's motorcade picked up Lou Xiaoe and many children from the airport and returned to the palace gate on Chaoyangmen Nei Street, Li Rui, Li Rui and several younger brothers rushed in screaming as soon as they got out of the car door. For them, this is not a visit to relatives, but a return home.

This was taught by Cao Yongshan, not to gain sovereignty, but to teach the children to be humble to their cousins ​​who came from other places and take good care of them.

After getting off the car, Nie Yu looked at the seven-bay concierge and said with a smile: "Yuanzi still has the foresight to purchase such a large courtyard early. Otherwise, how would there be a place to live when so many children come back?"

The sound of Shengli joining forces could already be heard inside. Li Rui, Li Zhi and a group of children from the Li family in mainland China were shouting, and the excitement was almost boiling.

Cao Yongshan smiled at Lou Xiao'e and said, "Dad still knows how to teach his children. Rui and Azhi are both much more cheerful than before."

As he walked in, Xiao Qi, Xiao Jiu, four cousins ​​Li Mei, Li Lian, Li He, Li Tao and some young cousins-in-law came out to greet them:
"mom!"

"Eighth Auntie!"

Family gatherings are always full of joy!

After a lively conversation, Lou Xiao'e touched Xiao Qi, hugged Xiao Jiu, and said angrily: "I've been on the road for two months!"

Lou Xiu also blamed him and asked, "Is dad here?"

Xiao Qi nodded, and Li Mei smiled and said, "Not long after we got off the plane, Haizi sent a car to pick her up."

Lou Xiao'e didn't believe it: "Your Aunt Xue came to pick her up? Your eighth uncle didn't want to go inside."

Li Mei whispered her name and said, "I came to pick her up in person. Uncle Eighth couldn't help it."

Lou Xiao'e was speechless and could only say: "Let's go, let's go in and see grandma!"

……

"I never knew that Greenspan would announce a rate hike last night, and his wife might not even know."

In the Golden Autumn Garden, Li Yuan said cheerfully.

Several old comrades laughed when they heard this, and Qin Daxue rolled his eyes at him.

Director Hong hissed, looked at Li Yuan and said, "I can't figure it out! The timing you chose is too clever. The people at the State Reserve Bureau will probably scratch their scalps. There is no pattern at all."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Then there's nothing I can do about it. The president of Datang Financial is fully responsible this time, and I didn't interfere at all."

Director Jing personally went to pick up the person today and said with a smile: "Then invite him to teach us a lesson. The world is progressing too fast. The beautiful country has not only established an unrivaled hegemony in the world in the military, but also is more ruthless in finance. . If we don’t learn, we will inevitably make the same mistake as Japan.”

Li Yuan spread his hands and said, "There's really nothing we can do about this. That kid blushes when he sees strangers and is as introverted as me..."

"Li Yuan!"

Qin Daxue smiled nervously and suggested: "It's better to be more serious."

Mr. Sui couldn't figure it out. He was originally sitting on the sofa, but now he leaned forward a little. He looked at Qin Daxue and said, "What are you serious about? We are all friends! This is how friends should chat!"

Qin Daxue smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay, then you just wait to re-understand what it means to be an introvert."

Mr. Sui laughed and said, "That doesn't matter, I'm an introvert too!"

Several old comrades burst into laughter.

Zhao Junxun said to Li Yuan: "Doctor Li, before I see your introverted personality, I still want to apologize to you..."

Li Yuan hissed and said, "What's wrong? Xiaojun can't pay back the money he borrowed from our family?"

Zhao Junxun: "..."

Li Yuanle said: "Just a joke, just a joke. Say what you say."

Zhao Junxun said tiredly: "Some people said some strange things before, but later it was found out that it was someone from the electricity industry who said it. I'm really embarrassed."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "That doesn't matter. Hong Kong newspapers talk bad about our family every day. We are used to it."

Mr. Sui said with a smile: "I know that Dr. Li has a big picture and a big spirit. Dr. Li, when we met the year before last, you suggested that we start to reform state-owned enterprises early. You see, now a large number of state-owned factories are solved every year and carried out Restructuring and selling off. It was a burden in the hands of the state, but in the hands of private enterprises, it has regained its strong vitality. The private economy is now an important part of our country's economy. Director Qin worked hard for a year last year and finally made it All the southeastern coastal provinces have reached an agreement, and the tax sharing system will be launched soon this year..."

Li Yuan was a little shocked and said: "Mr. Sui, you don't need to talk to me about these major national affairs, right?"

Mr. Sui said with a smile: "You are an important investor in Kaikai. In modern terms, you can also be regarded as one of the shareholders!"

Li Yuan's jaw almost dropped, and he laughed and said: "I can't afford it, I'm just a member of the people! Mr. Sui, you are really introverted."

Mr. Sui smiled and said: "Since we are the same people, can you give us some more advice? Dr. Li, we sincerely learn from you and think of each other. You are our old friend. You have made indelible contributions to the country and the nation, so we do not treat you as an outsider, nor do we treat you as a guest. What should we treat you as? Just as a friend, as one of our own!

It is now 1994, only six years before the new millennium. However, I have been to many places in the past few years. In developed countries, the gap is still too big. We are confident to catch up and improve economic development and people's living standards at all costs, but we also sincerely hope that talented and intelligent people like Dr. Li can help us make suggestions or directly criticize. ! Others dare not, but I believe you must dare! This is not what I said, it is what the ancients said. "

Zhao Junxun was not angry because of the joke just now, or people in this position are very generous and generous. He laughed and said: "Gu Gu has already gone to Shenghai to celebrate the New Year. When I went to visit him before leaving, he also said that he would go this time. Shenghai, I want to go to Pudong specifically to see the Datang Tower built by Datang. It is said that it will be the tallest building in Shenghai."

Li Yuandao: "These are all trivial matters. As for the suggestion made by Mr. Sui, I will mention one thing, which is the three-strain oral liquid. Hong Kong's "Ming Pao" and TVB have reported it. After testing, it is no different from Qigong. , are all deceptive, a massive marketing campaign, or directly a fraud. I am not referring to this incident alone, but I hope that on the basis of developing the economy at all costs, mainland China can also take into account Let’s talk about legal justice, educational balance and medical bottom line. I didn’t even mention food safety.

The ancestors said that people with enough food know the etiquette. Nowadays, there are so many people who don’t have enough to eat, so it is a bit of a luxury to pay attention to eating well. However, law, education and medical care are the fundamental bottom line for a nation to not go astray and are where hope lies. Health products like Sanzhu Oral Liquid blatantly recruit a group of fake doctors to go to the countryside to defraud simple people out of their hard-earned money. They can also advertise on a national platform like CCTV. This is definitely trampling on a country. Credibility and conscience. "

……

"You really don't save any face."

Coming out of Jinqiu Garden, Qin Daxue glanced at Li Yuan and said with a smile.

Li Yuandao: "Since people are asking for advice sincerely, then of course I should be merciful and tell him without reservation. But I don't have any hope whether it will be of any use."

Starting from this year, especially after the tax-sharing system was launched, cadres from all over China, as long as they are slightly enterprising, have been working around the world to attract investment almost all year round.

From counties, to cities, to provinces, there are almost no exceptions.

This will certainly play a huge role in promoting economic development, but it will inevitably ignore many basic people's livelihood issues.

Just like in the field of scientific research, who doesn't want to do projects with high returns, high reputation, and low difficulty? Who is willing to do basic subjects that are of little interest?

Seeing Qin Daxue sighing and falling silent, Li Yuan said with a smile: "Let me just say this, it has nothing to do with me whether it succeeds or not. Don't feel pressured, you are not the one in charge of these tasks. And in general, the country Progress has been rapid, and your generation is worthy of history."

Qin Daxue smiled when he heard this, stretched out his hand to hold Li Yuan's arm, and said: "Yes, it is developing rapidly. But it is also good luck. It happens that township and village enterprises develop explosively and take over millions of laid-off workers every year. If not The consequences of this will be disastrous. Farmers have once again saved the country. Yuanzi, doesn't Datang want to enter the chemical industry?"

Li Yuan laughed and said: "It's not a good thing to expand the business too much."

Qin Daxue smiled and said: "Those who are blessed by nature should do justice for heaven."

Li Yuan actually felt that it made sense, but after thinking about it again, he still shook his head and said: "Now is not the time. The water in the chemical industry is too deep. There are so many interest groups behind chemical fertilizers and so on. Rushing into the electric power industry, we just built With a large thermal power station, you have already been criticized. If Datang enters the chemical industry again, your reputation will be even more implicated."

Chemical industry, when we fight polar bears to support us, we focus on this.

In 1972, the old man and the Prime Minister liberalized the economy. This year can be regarded as the real beginning of reform. Four sets of large-scale chemical equipment were still imported.

You can know how many people are standing behind this.

He added: "It's not that I'm afraid, but it's unnecessary. Datang's main energy is still in the blank areas of the country. The Six Knights of Datang's Semiconductor are working hard to build factories, and the special steel factory is also absorbing and digesting them day and night. Technology patents bought back from polar bears, Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States. Power plants, pharmaceutical factories, and shipyards are all industries that require large-scale investment. If you continue to be greedy, you may suffer from indigestion. In many industries, it is not possible to have money. It can be done.”

Qin Daxue understood, nodded and said, "Then just wait."

She doesn't have any personal interests, she just thinks farmers are too miserable and tired.

If Datang is willing to enter this industry, she can single-handedly open a chemical channel for Datang with the favor left to her by the Prime Minister and Mr. Cao.

Taking root in this industry will benefit Datang without harm, and it will also benefit farmers.

In the past two years, more than one or two people have been shot because of the fake fertilizer case.

But since Li Yuan doesn't think it's necessary, she naturally won't force it. She respects Datang's interests.

After the two returned to Yongfu Hall to rest for more than an hour, they took a car back to the palace together.

Qin Daxue, who has worked hard for a year, is taking a break...

……

"Look at this family. They took two flights and came back in two groups!"

After Li Yuan and Qin Daxue entered the door, they heard their sister-in-law joke.

The children kept them away, but the hall was still full of people.

After a while of greetings from "Eighth Uncle" and "Eighth Aunt", Qin Daxue sat down next to Lou Xiao'e and joked with Li's mother: "Mom, are you happy to see Yuanzi come back and look a year younger?"

Mother Li smiled and nodded, then asked Li Yuan: "Are they in charge of the food?"

The younger members of the family all laughed.

Li Yuan looked back in surprise. After the laughter subsided, he said to his old mother: "No problem, I brought you a box of snacks. They are more delicious than those in Daoxiang Village. Mom, try them!"

After Mother Li took a beautiful box, she didn't open it and whispered: "There are some good things under the bed in my house, you go and drink."

He looked at the daughters-in-law next to him with vigilant eyes...

The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law couldn't stop laughing.

Li Yuan obeyed, went to his mother's bedroom, squatted down by the bed, and sure enough, he saw two large boxes of Sanshuo oral liquid stored under the bed.

Then you have to drink it...

Opened a bottle, inserted a straw, drank and walked out.

Naturally, he was teased a lot by his brothers and sisters-in-law.

There was a lot of excitement at home when a female staff member, a family member of the courtyard security guard, came in and announced: "Dr. Li, someone is looking for you outside and says his name is Bangge."

Most of the others didn't know who this person was, but Lou Xiao'e and Lou Xiu did.

Lou Xiao'e was surprised and said: "Hey, why did he come here?"

Li Yuandao: "There may be something going on. I'll go out and have a look...Mom, this is the child of my old neighbor who lives in the courtyard. There may be something going on at home. Do you think you can lend me your three oral liquids first? The old lady over there will do this this year. He's already over eighty, so I'll drop by and have a look."

Mother Li was still very generous when visiting relatives and friends, and she quickly remembered and asked, "That old woman who tried to cheat me of bacon back then?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Lou Xiao'e was overjoyed and said: "That's her! Later, she and Yuanzi got along well, and she even made several pairs of cloth shoes for him!"

Li Yuandao: "She loves her son and wants me to take her son to play with her. Mom, you also know that we are very popular and have many friends in the courtyard."

Mother Li thought it made sense, and sighed: "That is indeed not easy. Okay, you can give away those two big boxes, and I will ask your elder brother to buy them later."

Li Yuan hurriedly smiled and said: "There is one in Longhutang. There is much better one in Longhutang! I will send it to you later, one pill a day, guaranteed to be good! In fact, Ginseng Yangrong Pills are better than these." Much better!”

My sister-in-law laughed and said, "When we heard it was made from ginseng, we felt uneasy after eating it. It's too expensive."

Li Yuan didn't want to explain more, so he left this task to Lou Xiao'e. He took out two boxes of Sanzhu oral liquid from under his old mother's bed and went out.

……

"Bangge, why did you come here?"

Li Yuan asked with a smile when he saw Banggan pacing back and forth in front of the gate, with a bicycle parked next to him.

Bangge is forty-three this year...

The efficiency of the steel rolling mill has improved again in the past two years, and his life is also good. He seems to have gained a lot of weight.

When Banggeng saw Li Yuan coming out, he hurriedly shouted: "Uncle Yuanzi, it's great to have you at home! Uncle Yuanzi, my grandma insisted on letting me come to see if you are back..."

"Aunt Jia is looking for me. What's going on? What's the matter?"

Li Yuan asked.

Banggeng said: "My grandma has a stomachache. She couldn't get a good result even if she went to the hospital. She was transferred to several hospitals and couldn't find out the cause. I have to say that all those doctors are liars. Only you, Uncle Yuanzi, can do it! Yuanzi Uncle, I have brought money, and I dare not let you go in vain..."

As he spoke, he quickly took out a large amount of money from the inner pocket of his leather jacket.

Seeing that there was sweat on his forehead, Li Yuan sighed in his heart, he really has great merits and deeds. He had such an influence on the Thief Saint who could not kill even the Immortal Execution Sword in his life.

To be honest, he never thought that Bangge would become what it is today.

Although it is not that spectacular and a bit mediocre, at least human nature is not bad.

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Let's go back to the courtyard to have a look. Banggeng rides the bike and I'll sit behind."

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Banggan didn't expect Li Yuan to be so talkative, so he quickly pushed the bicycle away and sat on it. After Li Yuan got on the bike with two boxes of Sanzhu oral liquid, he pedaled hard.

They were all within the second ring road and it wasn’t too far away. It took about twenty minutes of riding to get there. Even so, Bang Ge almost suffered an intestinal obstruction while riding. He didn’t expect it to be so heavy!

Li Yuan got out of the car and looked at the mottled old gate of No. 95 Nanluogu Lane, and then at the Yanjia vegetable shop. He turned around and said to Banggeng, who was breathing heavily: "The main reason is that this is such a heavy gift. I originally wanted to give it as a gift." I’ll give a box to your three grandfathers, and since your grandma is sick, I’ll give it all to your family.”

Before Banggen opened his mouth, the curtain hanging on the door of the Yan family vegetable shop opened. Yan Bugui, whose hair was all white, smiled like a chrysanthemum. He ran over in small steps and said, "Oh, Yuanzi is back. !!”

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, come back and take a look at my room."

"..."

The smile on Yan Bugui's face froze. He was really afraid of something happening. He was worried about this just now. He was surprised and said: "Yuanzi, didn't we agree at the beginning that we can live in this house until... when?"

In the twelfth lunar month, he didn't want to say the word "death". If he died a few days earlier, wouldn't it be a big loss?
Li Yuan nodded and smiled: "Yes, yes, so you still need to take more care of yourself, Third Uncle. Look, the original price of Sanzhu Oral Liquid is one hundred and sixty-eight dollars. I'll sell it to you for one hundred and fifty. How about it? It's a good deal, right?"

Of course Yan Bugui knew about the famous Sanzhu Oral Liquid, but he had never been willing to buy it because it was too expensive.

But if you can find a bargain...

However, after he hesitated, Li Yuan refused to sell it and said: "Forget it, I said it would be given to Aunt Jia, so I will give it to Aunt Jia. She is sick today and I have to go and see it."

Seeing that Li Yuan was about to leave, Yan Bugui asked him the wisest question in his life: "Yuanzi, do you think this oral liquid is reasonable or not?"

Li Yuan turned around, raised an eyebrow at the old man, laughed, and turned away.

An idea flashed in Yan Bugui's head and he understood.

Looking at Li Yuan's back with gratitude, he sighed: "The world has really changed for the better. Even Yuanzi has become a good person!"

He shook his head with emotion and went back to the vegetable shop to continue selling vegetables, humming a dramatic tune...

On the dark sky, pieces of fine snowflakes fell quietly...

……

PS: It’s another busy day, come on, come on. My son has a fever again. After becoming a father, my life is really anxious. Most children born in the 1980s live in an environment where they expect their children to succeed, but when we grow up, we just want our children to grow up safely.
