The Fiery Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 369, a long conversation with Lou’s father

Not long after, Lou Xiao'e walked out of Li Weiguo's office in a daze.

When she left the office building of the security department, she looked back at the security department, as if she had something in her heart, she walked away step by step.

She had a hunch that what Li Weiguo said might be true, so she didn't care about the loss, got on her bicycle, and hurried back home.

She rode very fast, hurrying slowly, and it took her about ten minutes to get home.

At this time, Lou Zhenhua had just finished breakfast and was sitting on the sofa leisurely reading the newspaper. He saw his daughter running back in a hurry, thinking that she had left something at home.

As a result, after she took a breath and repeated Li Weiguo's original words, he was so shocked that he stood up.

"He really said that?" Lou Zhenhua was terrified.

I thought it was just a simple invitation to a meal, and I wanted to have a good chat with this man who my daughter never forgets, to see what kind of quality he is, but who would have thought that no one could invite him, but they gave him a big "" surprise".

This sudden reply, like a thunderclap on the ground, made his brain buzz.

"Well, yes, that's what he said." Lou Xiao'e nodded solemnly, and then added: "He also said that if there is a chance, let us leave as soon as possible and leave the imperial capital."

Although she is not deeply involved in the world, she still knows what is going on at home. Although the current wind direction is relatively stable, and the general environment has not deliberately targeted families like theirs, she is not afraid of [-] but just in case. It will change someday.

With a tense face, Lou Zhenhua paced back and forth in the living room several times, pondered for a moment, and said, "Okay, I get it. Specifically, I will ask a friend to find out the direction of the wind."

"As for Li Weiguo, don't go there anymore. Since they don't want to get involved with us too much, don't force it. If the wind direction is indeed changing, maybe our family has to make plans early."

After finishing speaking, Lou Zhenhua sighed, and patted Lou Xiaoe's shoulder guiltily.

The situation in their family makes it so tiring for their daughter to find someone she likes. To be honest, he, as a father, also blames himself very much, but the current situation is like this, but there is nothing he can do about it.

".Well, I see, Dad"

Lou Xiao'e smiled bitterly. Although she was disappointed, she was not a child who didn't know the importance. Even though she was extremely unwilling, it was related to the safety of her family, and she could not do anything arbitrarily.

After comforting his daughter and letting her go back to rest, Lou Zhenhua lit a cigarette and stood quietly by the window and meditated for a long time.

After several cigarettes in a row, he seemed to have made up his mind. He put out the cigarette butts, turned and went upstairs, took out a briefcase from his bedroom closet, put a large envelope and a carton of Peony cigarettes in it, and then hurriedly packed it up. I took off my clothes and went out.

The Lou family was not far from the steel rolling mill. Lou Zhenhua drove his car and arrived at the steel rolling mill in a short time.

He drove the car all the way to the playground in front of the office building of the security department and stopped. After pulling over a security guard and asking about the location of Li Weiguo's office, Lou Zhenhua took his briefcase and went straight to the second floor to find Li Weiguo.

At this time, Li Weiguo was leisurely drinking tea and reading the newspaper in the office. He was not surprised when Lou Zhenhua suddenly came to see him. After all, the matter was so important that even the most stable person might not be able to sit still.

So after saying hello, Li Weiguo stretched out his hand and invited him to sit on the sofa, got up and walked to the door, closed the door, turned around, then took out a pack of Zhonghua and gave one to Lou Zhenhua, and then sat down. his side.

Lou Zhenhua smiled politely, took the cigarette with one hand, only glanced at it, and instantly raised Li Weiguo to an equal level in his heart.

This Chinese cigarette is not something that just anyone can afford. This cigarette is a special supply, and high-ranking officials and embassies abroad only supply a small amount every month. Being able to afford this cigarette fully shows that Li Weiguo is extraordinary.

For a moment, Lou Zhenhua's mood was quite complicated, and he became more convinced of Li Weiguo's answer. At the same time, he secretly scolded Li Huaide in his heart, this is what you said, ordinary people have no background?Where is the fool?
Seeing Lou Zhenhua smiling and saying nothing, Li Weiguo smiled and struck a match for him first: "Dr. Lou, come here, I will light it for you."

"Okay, thank you, Chief Li." Lou Zhenhua smiled slightly, without being polite, covered the flames and took a deep breath.

"Haha, Mr. Lou, you're too polite. I'm just lighting a cigarette for my elder." Li Weiguo smiled, put out the match, and struck another one for himself.

The two elders were not in a hurry to talk about things. They sat drinking tea and smoking, chatting here and there. No one took the initiative to mention what happened in the morning, and they seemed to only talk about romance and not state affairs.

But after chatting for a few minutes, Lou Zhenhua couldn't sit still anymore. The guy in front of him didn't know who cultivated the little monster. He didn't look like a young man in his early twenties at all, but was as slippery as a 50-[-]-year-old The middle-aged and veteran cadres in the office are average, watertight and as calm as a mountain.

You are not in a hurry, and he is not in a hurry, he just didn't mention anything about the morning, which made him lose his temper.

There was nothing I could do. After all, I came here with doubts to seek solutions. There was no need to act like an elder to others.

So Lou Zhenhua smiled and took the initiative to speak: "Chief Li, our Xiao'e told me what you said today. Because the matter is so important, I had to pay a visit in person. I want to ask you to clarify my doubts. I don’t know where you got this news from?”

Hearing his question, Li Weiguo smiled and said nothing. It will take several years for this storm to blow up. How can I tell him clearly about the future, so I can only ponder for a few seconds pretending to be mysterious, and then stretch out a hand, pointed him up.

Lou Zhenhua's pupils shrank, and the alarm bells rang in his heart. Although he didn't know who he was talking about, it was so taboo that people couldn't call him by his name directly.

Not knowing whether what he said was true or not, Lou Zhenhua cautiously probed: "Chief Li, is the situation so bad now? We haven't seen any troubles in general?"

No wonder he felt strange, because since the public-private partnership, apart from being idle at home, these people have been living a normal life, and have not been targeted too much. Even the dividends from the industry are received as usual every year. This came out of the blue. A reminder from him made him feel a bit overwhelmed.

Li Weiguo pondered for a while, and did not reply him immediately, but after deliberation, he said slowly: "Mr. Lou, you may feel that the situation has gradually improved, but sometimes there is no warning when the wind blows, just like three years. What is the omen of the renovation of the private house before?"

"Since ancient times, if you want to grasp the corresponding wealth, you must have the corresponding strength. Without the corresponding strength as support, it is like a child holding gold to make trouble. The wealth cannot be grasped."

"Your Lou's family is sitting on a huge amount of wealth. They might have been able to grasp it before, but not necessarily in the future. As long as the hidden danger exists, it only needs a fuse, sooner or later."

After speaking, Li Weiguo picked up the teapot and took a sip. He said this. He didn't want to say anything more. Some things haven't reached that point. It's useless no matter how much you explain. It all depends on the individual's sense of crisis.

It's not that there are people who have been dealt with for various reasons in recent years. Smart people will make up their own minds and weigh them. If they are used to being comfortable, there is nothing they can do.

After listening to his explanation, Lou Zhenhua took a deep breath from the cigarette and slowly exhaled it. Although his face was calm, he already agreed with his statement in his heart, and was even more pessimistic than what he said.

As an industrialist who single-handedly built a rolling mill from the troubled times of the Republic of China to this point, he is too aware of the importance of strength.

In the early years, when the rolling mill was still in his hands, he was also an all-powerful figure. He wanted people, guns and guns, and he was a guest wherever he went.

It's a pity that things have changed now, and he has become a bad old man who is idle at home and no one cares about him, and few people know him when he walks on the street, and he can only occasionally show his face in a low-key manner in the established circle.

Over the years, the Lou family has accumulated a lot of wealth, but now that they have lost the ability to protect their wealth, it may be inevitable that they will be coveted in the future.

Extremely thoughtful and fearful
After a moment of silence, a layer of sweat slowly broke out on Lou Zhenhua's forehead. As the head of the family, it was really time for him to find a way out for his family.

"Section Chief Li, what you said is very reasonable. Thank you for your reminder. You told our family Xiao'e in the morning that you suggested that we leave the imperial capital. Do you have any good suggestions for specific places?"

While speaking, Lou Zhenhua took out the peony from the briefcase, unpacked it, tore open one of the packages, and handed one to Li Weiguo, and put the others on the coffee table.

Li Weiguo didn't take it seriously when he saw his actions, took the cigarette and said two words to him: "Xiangjiang".

Lou Zhenhua was taken aback, chewing the word "Xiangjiang" over and over again.

Although he has never been to Xiangjiang, Xiangjiang's reputation is not small in the interior. During the war years, many people took Xiangjiang as their first choice for refuge, including the nobles of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the old and the young, and the rich in Lushang. , even many of his friends in the previous business circle also chose Xiangjiang.

However, he was not familiar with Xiangjiang. Out of curiosity, Lou Zhenhua asked: "Chief Li, why do you recommend going to Xiangjiang instead of other countries or places?"

Li Weiguo smiled slightly and explained: "Mr. Lou, although Xiangjiang hasn't come back for the time being, the people who live there are basically Chinese people. If you go there, you won't feel the strangeness of a foreign country, and you can quickly integrate into society."

"The most important thing is that there is a prosperous economy, a high degree of market freedom, and a unique geographical location. It is a natural trading port city. If you go there, you may not be able to find a suitable commercial project with your business skills. How many years will it take for the Lou family to regain its former glory?"

"And it's close to home. I can quickly learn about any policy changes in the interior. If the environment improves in the future, I can come back at any time."

What Li Weiguo said was reasonable and well-founded, and it was indeed in line with his expectations. However, due to the sudden incident and the difficulty of leaving his homeland, Lou Zhenhua was not mentally prepared to move his family for a while. He could only say Temporarily had this idea.

So after hesitating, he tried again: "Chief Li, when do you think this gust of wind will blow?"

Li Weiguo smiled and said: "Dr. Lou, who can say for sure what will happen in the future? It may be half a year or a year, or it may be five or six years, but no matter what time it is, a gentleman will always have to stand up against a dangerous wall. Prepare yourself an escape route in advance, don’t you think?”

Li Weiguo told him everything he should and shouldn't say. Whether he ignored it or made plans in advance was all up to him. No matter how much Li Weiguo said, he couldn't tell him.

Li Weiguo's heartfelt words made Lou Zhenhua a little distracted, and he was in a trance for a moment before he came back to his senses. After regaining his senses, Lou Zhenhua solemnly stood up and bowed to Li Weiguo.

"Section Chief Li, you are right. Thank you very much for your reminder and clarification. If it weren't for your words, maybe I would still be immersed in the comfort of the past."

Then, Lou Zhenhua took out the large envelope that he had prepared for a long time from his briefcase, pushed it in front of Li Weiguo, and thanked him again: "Chief Li, this is my small gratitude. Please don’t refuse.”

Li Weiguo glanced at the envelope he pushed, just looking at the thickness, if it is a big black ten, it is estimated to be more than three thousand. Sure enough, Boss Lou is very generous.

However, Li Weiguo did not lack these three melons and jujubes. In terms of personal wealth alone, Lou Zhenhua might not be as rich as him. I reminded him that it was not for this, so he waved his hand and refused.

"Director Lou, I'm not short of money. I remind you that it's just a coincidence and not for reward. I accepted this peony cigarette, which is considered to be your favor. But forget the money, you can take it back." After saying that, Li Weiguo stuffed the envelope back into his briefcase with a determined look on his face.

Lou Zhenhua originally thought that he was just resigning politely, but after a few pushes, he found that he was still resolute, so he didn't force it.

It's true, how could a person with real power and extraordinary footsteps be short of money?

Besides, money is of no use in the current economic system.

After talking about business, Lou Zhenhua said helplessly: "Commander Li, it would be great if my daughter could have known you earlier. It's such a pity. I can only say that the world is full of troubles. My silly daughter may not be so lucky." Well, he shook his head again, with a gesture of extreme regret.

Li Weiguo smiled and didn't say a word. How can I accept what you said? I've been heart-to-heart with you, and you still want to be my father-in-law.
Then the two chatted for a while, and Lou Zhenhua, who got a satisfactory answer, didn't stay any longer, and quickly found an excuse to leave.

Watching Lou Zhenhua go away, Li Weiguo shook his head and smiled, hoping that this time the Lou family is prepared and can have a perfect ending.
