Rebirth in the leisurely life of the red age

Tsing Yi Island, Lee's Manor.

Lou Xiao'e listened to the phone call and said in surprise: "Isn't there any news about Aze yet? It shouldn't be. It's been a long time since the Japanese side... I haven't been able to contact you, and Tang Yuan doesn't know about it either? Dad, don't worry, I'll ask now. , I’ll call you later. Don’t worry, Aze is now a very important figure in the group. He has seven or eight bodyguards with him at all times, so there is absolutely no problem with his safety. Hmm, I’ll look for him now.”

After hanging up the phone, Lou Xiu frowned on the sofa and said, "Dad's phone number? Why can't Aze get in touch?"

Lou Xiao'e looked a little solemn and said, "I'll call Tangyuan."

With that said, he dialed the number of the Central office, and the office secretary said that Li Xing had just gotten off work.

After Lou Xiao'e took a look at the sky outside, she called Li Xing's big brother again.

In 1987, the first analog mobile communication network had been established in eastern Guangdong. Mobile Phone entered the mainland, but Hong Kong Island was three years earlier.

"Mom, what's the matter?"

After the call was connected, Li Xing's voice came over along with the roar of the engine.

Lou Xiao'e said: "Who is driving? If you want to drive, we will talk about it later."

Li Xing smiled and said: "Xiao Shi is driving, she likes to drive."

Lou Xiao'e felt relieved and asked: "Your grandpa said that Aze has been unable to be contacted. The Chinese New Year is coming soon and he has not been able to see anyone for more than half a year. He is very worried."

Li Xing smiled lightly and said: "Then you should ask dad. The financial investment department has been under dad's direct command for the past two years. Don't worry, grandpa. Can dad still let something happen to cousin Aze?"

Lou Xiao'e said in surprise: "You can't even contact anyone?"

Li Xing smiled and said: "Dad is afraid that I will become a gambler and use my family fortune to invest in the stock market to try to get rich. He said that if I don't accept it, I will try the water with 10 million. If I can still have 5 million left in three years, I will You can play in the water as you like. Of course I didn’t dare to agree with my face, but secretly I threw five million into the stock market. As a result, in 1987, I didn’t even have a chicken feather left. Looking at my father, I also I gave up. So I never asked about financial investment matters. Mom, are you still worried about Dad’s arrangements? "

Lou Xiao'e felt relieved after hearing this and said with a smile: "I'm not worried, it's just your grandpa. He's getting old. Now your eldest cousin is the only one supporting the Lou family. Once he left, he didn't have any faith for so long. Your grandpa and grandma are How can you and your cousin-in-law not worry?"

Li Xing pondered for a while and said: "Then let's call dad. Calculating the time, it's time to arrive at Sijiu City."

Lou Xiao'e responded, and He Pingshi's voice came from the other end of the phone calling her mommy to come over for dinner. After she agreed with a smile, she hung up the phone and called Sijiu City again.

She was originally worried about whether Li Yuan would be able to pick up the phone, but she didn't expect that it was actually connected. When she heard the long-lost man's voice, Lou Xiao'e's thoughts overflowed in her heart, and she said angrily: "Can you still hear my voice?"

On the other end of the phone, Li Yuan, who had just come back and was about to change his clothes to prepare for the dinner, said with a warm smile: "I've been missing you. I'll go back in two days. You two can make preparations. The whole family will come back to celebrate the New Year. Call the second brother. In the next two years , even if his leg is broken, he will come back for the Chinese New Year. The old man only has two years left, so let’s spend a good two years with him during the Reunion Year.”

Lou Xiao'e was startled and said hurriedly: "Okay, okay, I'll make a call soon."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "No rush. You are so anxious to call me. Besides missing me, do you have anything else to do?"

Only then did Lou Xiaoe remember the reason for her call. She smiled sheepishly and said, "It's dad. He is very worried about Aze. Yuanzi, isn't it half a year over in Japan? Why hasn't Aze come back yet? He didn't come back during the Chinese New Year last year." At home, Dad and the others are worried.”

Li Yuan said: "Aze, he should be in Wanwan now. But don't worry, he has good people around him. I specially asked Harel to go out, just to protect him. Don't worry, there will be no problem with both black and white."

Lou Xiao'e was speechless and said: "Why did you go to Wanwan?"

Li Yuan laughed and said: "Silly Ezi, it's because it's profitable."

From 1951 to 1987, the Gulf economy surged at an annual growth rate of 9%, ranking among the four Asian tigers. In their own words, they had so much money that they could scatter it on the ground. Can submerge ankles.

The level of wealth is no less than that of Japan.

The Bay Area stock index soared from 600 points in 1985 to 8,000 points in 1987. It suffered a stock market crash and halved to 4,268 points.

However, with the economic development of more than 30 years as the foundation, the people of Bayan were not afraid of the short-term stock market crash at all. They bought with real money and quickly pushed the stock index from 4,000 points to the sky.

Not only did it regain the lost ground, but it also set a new high, breaking through 10,000 points, even breaking through 11,000 points, and it continues to rise.

Aze led his team to build a position in the Wanwan stock market. From 1985 to 1987, they made a fortune. After the sell-off in 1987, they changed hands and went short, and then quickly bought at 4,000 points.

After finishing the foot pot chicken, I concentrated on this.

Now, the sell-off should be continuing.

And, short again.

Because there is about a month left, the Bayan stock market will avalanche from the highest point of 12,495 points to 2,000 points.

The wealth that Wanwan had accumulated over the past thirty years was brutally looted.

Of course, Wall Street still made the bulk of the money.

This wave is about hunting rabbits in the grass.

How many dishes did Li Yuan eat in Japan? That's what people call a gluttonous feast, a multi-trillion-dollar meal, eaten by bald eagles and the whole country celebrates.

In Wanwan, US$250 billion was also made.

The most powerful country on the planet is so terrifying.

As a ferocious crocodile, the Li family would definitely not miss this opportunity and take a fierce bite of the fat.

There is no way, none of the heavy-duty plates in the Li family is not a gold-swallowing beast.

Heavy industry is inherently a high-investment, high-risk, and high-return industry. Once completed, it will have a strong added impact value.

But if you want to see high returns, don’t even think about it if you don’t have a foundation of five to ten years.

Five to ten years is considered conservative. Datang Semiconductor can make a profit within five years of planning. This is entirely due to the right time, place and people.

Without the beautiful country that unreasonably pushed the little devil to the ground and rubbed it repeatedly, there would be no chance for Datang and Samsung.

Without the collective withdrawal of foreign capital from the mainland and sanctions against Rabbit, Datang would not have the opportunity to exclusively enjoy the mainland semiconductor market.

But it’s impossible to count on such luck every time…

So before seeing returns, we will continue to burn money.

Without scrounging some funds everywhere, the Li family would not be able to afford such a big deal.

Now some people call the Li family the Li Family Consortium, which is really giving the Li family a boost.

When will all the heavy industry sectors of the Li family start to make profits? When will the Li family have the model of a consortium?

Now, the consortium's egg has just been laid, and it hasn't hatched yet...

After hanging up the phone, Li Yuan happily went to the kitchen to pack things.

There are still some yellow sheep in the space, but they are not very abundant. Unfortunately, in 1988, the yellow sheep became a national first-level protected animal and can no longer be hunted.

Two sheep were cut into fresh mutton, and the tripe, heart, intestines, blood, etc. were all cleaned up.

Mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, lettuce, cabbage and other vegetarian dishes are also prepared.

The soup made from lamb bones and pork bones is fragrant.

Small ingredients such as sesame paste, sesame oil, and garlic paste are also prepared.

Qin Daxue and Zhiguo also came in...

…

"Daxue, are you feeling bad?"

Snowflakes were falling outside the house again, and the entire Lao Li family was enjoying themselves while cooking mutton hotpot and drinking Jingcheng Erguotou. The eldest sister-in-law looked at Qin Daxue and asked with a smile.

Even though Qin Daxue has never exerted any official authority at home, she still has an invisible pressure in the hearts of her family members.

Officer, that’s understandable.

Only my sister-in-law can talk to her more often on weekdays.

Qin Daxue said: "Feeling sorry for Yuanzi? No need, we are already an old couple."

All the brothers and sisters-in-law laughed, and the seventh sister-in-law said with a smile: "The snow has not changed, and what he said is very interesting."

The eldest sister-in-law said: "No matter how she changes, no matter how high-ranking the official is, she will still be the daughter-in-law of our old Li family!"

Qin Daxue quickly clinked glasses with her sister-in-law and took a sip of Erguotou. She grinned and made people laugh again.

After drinking, Qin Daxue poured a glass for himself, raised it with Li Yuan beside him, and said: "It took so much effort to nurse my son back. It's amazing and hard work. I am ashamed of you in this family." , but it’s too late for you to regret it, there are already over fifty people, and you can only do one.”

Li Yuan sneered and clinked glasses with his wife. They looked at each other and drank down the drink.

Li Chi said: "We are just a couple. What's the point of paying more and less? Just because you gave birth to three children for Lao Li's family, I have to let you go."

The whole family helped Qin Daxue speak, which is also a tradition of the old Li family.

When we were still young, it was inevitable that there would be a quarrel between husband and wife. Every time at this stall, whether it was Li Gui or Li's mother, they would stand by their daughter-in-law without any hesitation. Li Gui scolded his son, while Li's mother would It's direct action.

Before Li Yuan, the Li family had seven daughters-in-law and seven sisters-in-law.

Normally, the fight would have been so stupid that at least twenty small groups could be formed...

But the Li family didn't, they were very united.

This family tradition naturally extended to Li Laoba.

After being warned by various lessons, Li Yuan happily said: "Okay, okay, no matter what status they have now, I am just a commoner, and we are on the same class front."

Li Jiang scoffed rudely: "Even if you are a commoner, you are still a troublemaker, let alone a big capitalist."

Li Chi suddenly remembered something and said: "I watch TV and they always call on people to donate money to co-organize the Asian Games. Daxue, I am also an old member, so I should donate some money. Can I donate directly to the village branch?"

Qin Daxue said: "Now it is mainly enterprises, institutions, and factories that are calling. If you want to donate, you have to wait. During the Chinese New Year this year, it is estimated that donation channels will be opened after some old comrades come out to speak."

Li Yuan asked: "How much is left?"

Qin Daxue said: "The budget totaled 2.2 billion, and 850 million were allocated. Mr. Huo personally donated 100 million, and Mr. Rong donated 50 million. There is still a shortfall of 1.2 billion."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "How much did you donate?"

Qin Daxue felt a little embarrassed when he heard this and said, "Half a year's salary."

What kind of eyesight does Li Yuan have? Although he saw some problems, he did not continue to ask questions at the dinner table.

Li Jiang said: "My youngest, you are a rich man, how much are you prepared to pay?"

Li Yuan curled his lips and said: "I haven't been able to work for more than a year, and my baby can eat, but I am so poor that I can't afford to donate. I can't afford to donate."

In the Shanxi dialect, the stingy character of a wealthy local was vividly portrayed, making the whole family laugh.

…

East Road Courtyard.

When Li Yuan went to take a bath, Qin Daxue and Zhiguo were talking: "Experiences can be thought about, accumulated, and ideas can be absorbed, but don't let it affect your outlook on life. It's best not to affect your character. There is no need to be deep. A young man who appears to be sunny and energetic may not be unable to have profound thoughts and cognitions. A melancholy and heavy person does not mean that he has correct thoughts. The simplest example is right in front of you... Do you think you can do this in your life? Has it reached the level of your father? I’m not talking about official positions.”

Zhiguo smiled bitterly, shook his head, looked at Qin Daxue and said: "Mom, it is rare to find a person like Dad in five hundred years. His height not only makes me despair, but also my elder brother. In the hearts of our brothers, Dad is God. The older I grow, the more I understand, and the more I feel that it is hopeless to catch up."

Qin Daxue reminded: "Even if he is a god, he is also a happy god, a god who never forgets the true nature of life, right? I once advised you not to be kidnapped by the so-called birth, fame, power and wealth. Now I would like to advise you, don’t be kidnapped by the so-called profoundness. Only by lifting things lightly can you be considered successful.”

Zhi Guo said helplessly: "Mom, are your expectations of me too high?"

Qin Daxue shook his head and said: "It's not that I have high expectations for you, it's that your father has high expectations for you. He values ​​​​fair people so much. He has nine children in the family and treats you specially. If you can't manage the country, Just tell your father in advance that it is better to be disappointed early than later. Even if you are an ordinary yamen, we will not accept it, as long as you abide by the law."

Zhiguo was angry and funny when he heard this. Although he knew that this was his mother's way of provoking generals, he could only be fooled and said helplessly: "Mom, please give me some time to settle down. I know that being serious should not be Superficial.”

When Qin Daxue saw his son begging for mercy, he let him go and said with a smile: "Go, take a bath, and have a good rest. You are the only one of your brothers in the capital now. They will all come back during the New Year. You have to be responsible for arranging the reception." .If you have time, you can also meet old classmates."

Zhiguo nodded in agreement and left Yuanziyuan.

After going out, I stood by a Sophora japonica tree and looked up at the night sky for a while before continuing to walk through the snow...

After a while, Li Yuan came out wearing a vest, trousers, and slippers. Seeing that his man was still as strong and healthy, Qin Daxue felt helpless.

The eldest granddaughter is ten years old this year, and the eldest grandson is eight years old. She still acts like a young man. Where can I go to reason?

Li Yuan asked: "My son is gone?"

Qin Daxue nodded. What he said before was so grand, but now he was a little unsure: "Will it have too much impact on his heart?"

Li Yuan chuckled and said: "He is also a twenty-year-old young man. He has walked the Long March with me since he was nine years old and has read so many books. If you can't even digest this little knowledge, let's take a look. Should we have another fourth child while we still can? This one is considered a waste."

Qin Daxue said unhappily: "Fuck you, did you say that about your son?"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "I have confidence in my son." Sitting on the sofa, he asked again: "When I asked you how much to donate, you seemed to have something wrong? The boss will debit five dollars to your account every month. One hundred thousand, like Xiao'e and Sister Xiu, you probably haven't touched a penny on weekdays. You have accumulated tens of millions over the years, and I thought you were going to donate it."

Qin Daxue was a little embarrassed and told Song Yun's request for help, and finally said: "That bastard Zhao Xiaojun scavenged some money and invested it in the stock market. He also increased leverage, and finally lost everything. If this happened, Violent, at this juncture, the impact will be very bad. Naturally, I don't care about other people's life and death. Whether Zhao Junxun can get on the stage has nothing to do with me. It's just that when the old lady Gu Nian is around, I still don't want to see Zhao Junxun and his wife. It collapsed, so I lent the money I saved to Song Yun to fill the hole."

Li Yuan said depressedly: "Although from a utilitarian point of view, if you do this good deed, the future benefits will be very large, especially the Datang Group, which will benefit a lot from it. But, I don't like it very much, it's not necessary."

Qin Daxue saw Li Yuan's unhappiness and explained: "Didn't you say that the old lady only has two years left? After two years, we will distance ourselves from the Zhao family. Yuanzi, I never treat my father-in-law outside." It’s not personal, it’s just about the old lady. I really can’t bear to let her go away sad and disappointed. After the old lady leaves, something like this will definitely happen again, and I will personally catch this case by then!"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Forget it, I won't have trouble with a child. Compromise and deal-making are Zhengzhi's background. Otherwise, this thing is the dirtiest..." Qin Daxue looked very unhappy. , Li Yuan said again: "Besides, we are not a deal, we are just showing mercy for Mr. Cao's happy old age. If I can't even see through this, then my role as a good wife is in vain. It's all my fault. That unlucky one, Mei Changning tried to persuade me several times but refused to listen. It’s okay now, you should laugh at me next time I see Aning.”

Qin Daxue laughed at himself: "It is estimated that some people will make fun of us for selling our official positions. There are several nephews in the family, and they will be moved up after the new year. With what you said to Mr. Sui today, it will be impossible for the fourth brother to take a step forward this year. There will be problems. Having reached this point at the age of forty, the future is limitless.

Mr. Sui's admiration for you is truly unabashed. I have been praising you before you came, and I will continue to praise you after you leave. Cao’s mother said that Mr. Sui was a very talented, well-organized and ambitious revolutionary who was also very capable. This is the common view of several old people towards him. And such people often have very high vision and only like people with real talents. "

Li Yuan said cheerfully: "I respect him quite a lot. After all, there are not many old comrades who can recite Shelley's poems." He suddenly thought of something. Pudong seemed to be undergoing major development soon.

Emmm, do you want to join in?

However, you have to wait two years to join the team. In the past two years, the strategy department and management committee of the family are probably trying their best to find ways to buy technology from outside and bring it back. If he is willful and holds back, he will become a pig teammate. .

That night, the couple talked a lot and talked for a long time.

When it was almost dawn, I was about to fall asleep.

The next day, Qin Daxue took the car back to work early in the morning, while Li Yuan said goodbye to his parents, said a few words about governing the country, and then flew back to Hong Kong Island.

…

"Dad~"

When seventeen-year-old Xiao Qi saw her father coming out of the airport, she happily threw herself into his arms.

Li Yuan instantly grinned from the corner of his mouth to the back of his ears, patted his daughter on the back, and said with a smile, "Do you miss Dad?"

"Think about it!"

As a girl, Xiao Qi, who was not very conspicuous among the sisters except for bickering when she was a child, now lives out her own unique temperament.

The Tai Chi charm around her gave her a slightly otherworldly aura. There were so many people coming and going in Prince Dao, and few of them didn't look at her.

The surprise wasn't just for Xiaoqi, the two goddaughters also came to pick her up at the airport.

Li Yuan took the initiative to hug Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li, who were a little shy after a long separation. Seeing that they were still carrying their suitcases, he asked, "Are you planning to go home for the New Year?"

Chen Xiaoxu responded smartly: "Yes."

The eyes looking at Li Yuan were bright and clear.

Li Yuan stroked her hair and said warmly: "Say hello to your parents for me."

Zhang Li smiled beside her and said: "We both bought a house not far from the Wangfu Palace, and also bought a house in the Asian Games Village. This time we will go back to pick up my parents and come to the capital to celebrate the New Year!"

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, then I will bring my parents over to my house and have a meal together."

The two of them smiled and nodded in agreement. The staff around them plucked up the courage to step forward and remind them that it was time to board the plane before reluctantly saying goodbye and leaving.

After the two left, Xiaoqi smiled and joked: "Dad, my confidante~"

Nowadays, the only one in the family who dares to joke with Li Yuan is this precious daughter.

Xiaojiu also has this privilege, but she won't say this.

Li Yuan looked at the two family cars parked on the roadside, and there were four people standing around on guard, and said with a smile: "You have a good sense of security. What dad is most worried about outside is that you are old and practicing martial arts here. body, so I was careless."

Xiao Qi couldn't help but said: "Dad, your skill in changing the subject has become very good. Let's go home! Dad, why don't you ask big brother why they didn't come to pick him up?"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "They are self-aware and know that I am annoyed when I see them, so they sent Xiao Qi, my father's favorite, to pick me up."

Xiao Qi laughed loudly. After the father and daughter got in the car, Xiao Qi said: "Because we are going back to the mainland for the Chinese New Year, many agendas have to be brought forward. It was such a chaotic situation that I almost died laughing. Annuo wanted to come with me, but he was The second sister-in-law rushed to take piano lessons. Wow, Annuo and Ari were much more miserable than us. They all signed up for so many tutoring classes. Music, swimming, equestrian, golf... Compared with them, we I was so happy when I was a kid.”

Li Yuan started the car and said: "Every generation has its own hard work. An Nuo and the others still have a long way to go if they want to catch up with you. Where is Jiu'er?"

Xiao Qi smiled and said: "I guess I went to the other side again. Dad, did Uncle Mei come to complain to you?"

Li Yuan drove towards home and asked, "What are you suing for?"

Xiao Qi chuckled and said: "Jiu'er came out of quarantine three months ago and said he was going to eastern Guangdong for a walk. I was worried, so I went with him. The chaos there... really shocked me. There are some people who specialize in raising a group of boys who are twelve or thirteen years old and do bad things openly with knives. I still can't do it. Some people think that they are too young and can't bear to do something serious. Then I saw Jiu'er take action, haha, Dad, you were so cruel. You really beat me to death, and you even crippled a few older kids who looked like they were veterans. Finally, you found the gang behind it, and killed all the leaders, men, women, and children. After a month, Uncle Mei found us, called us aunt, and begged us to go back quickly. Hahaha!"

Li Yuan also laughed and laughed, and then wondered: "I saw you two days ago, but you didn't tell me about this. But Xiaoqi, don't imitate your sister. We don't dare to be competitive in this aspect. "

Xiao Qi nodded and said with a smile: "I know. My sister is born with a heart like a bright mirror, which can sense danger and observe good and evil. Tsk tsk, the mascot of our family! Don't talk about me. The third brother said that he doesn't even dare to be like Jiu'er. The same person goes deep into the dragon's den and the tiger's den. The firearms in many places in the mainland have not been cleared away. This is secondly. Ordinary firearms can no longer hurt him. The third brother has just entered Huajin, and the big dragon bone is infinitely powerful. But the human heart is far more powerful than the others. Firearms are scary. He can't bear it when a person who looks kind or weak and pitiful suddenly fires a gun. I heard from Jiu'er that if you have a certain state of mind, you can be like her. The third brother now reads books every day, reading the classics of sages. , and also want to drag Annuo and the others to read together and teach them. Annuo Arui will run away as soon as he sees his third uncle."

Li Yuan listened to the family affairs with a smile on his face. Xiao Qi talked eloquently about the past year or so, from home to the company, and also talked about good movies and good songs. "Really Love You" by Beyond is great to listen to. The Qianxi battle between Anita Mui and Priscilla Chan is well known in Hong Kong, but Priscilla Chan is obviously not Anita Mui's opponent...

"Anita Mui was really popular last year. She even surpassed Chow Yun-fat in "Better Days 3" and became the leading heroine. This person is very generous and has attracted many people, including actors and singers, to join the second and third sisters-in-law. The company arranged for them to hold a concert in the mainland, and all proceeds from the concert were donated to the Hope Student Aid Fund, which built many rural schools. Their interests were guaranteed by accepting advertising from the company. Because they were super popular, they endorsed the advertising The benefits are very good. My eldest brother is getting better and better at doing business, but I heard from my second sister-in-law that my sixth uncle complained that our family’s salary for artists is too high.”

This is the only good thing about a daughter. She has endless things to talk about with her father.

In a blink of an eye, the car drove across the Tsing Yi Bridge and returned to the Li Manor.

The previous pharmaceutical factory was still in full swing for production, but the current pharmaceutical factory was beginning to look cramped and inadequate. Fortunately, a large piece of land had been newly applied for in Tseung Kwan O to build a factory.

"Grandpa~"

As soon as the car stopped, An Nuo fluttered over like a butterfly and shouted loudly.

Behind her, Li Rui, Li Zhi, Li Ying, Li Ming and other younger brothers were also shouting at the top of their lungs, like gourd babies.

Li Yuan smiled and hugged each other, and finally hugged his family members waiting in front of the door.

Lou Xiaoe and others did not hide their unhappy expressions at all. After all, they had been gone for more than a year.

Li Yuan took out a stack of photos from his pocket and said, "Look, this is the result of this year."

Lou Xiao'e, Lou Xiu and others took over the thick stack of photos, and were a little surprised at the first one. The photo showed Zhi Guo stopping in front of a dilapidated mud house, stopping a group of people from preparing to grill the house with shovels, pickaxes and other tools. The people who governed the country looked very angry and argued hard.

Everyone watching was very concerned about the result, and in the second picture they saw the three mud houses being torn down.

Further on, there are those who govern the country and stop the cattle from being taken away, and those who pull away the pigs. Further on, there are those who stare blankly at those who hang themselves, those who drink medicine, and those who jump into wells...

But after that, Zhi Guo's expression changed from the initial shock and anger, to helplessness, to numbness.

The whole person, from the sunny and handsome one at the beginning, gradually became depressed and unhappy. After reading each picture to the end, Lou Xiaoe felt numb and looked at Li Yuan in confusion.

Lou Xiu's eyes were full of distress and annoyance, and she frowned and looked at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Anyway, Daxue and Mr. Cao and others who are traveling on that road are very pleasantly surprised when they see the country being governed in this state. The reason is very simple. If you don't see the other side of power, it's a kind of why not He eats minced meat. So, I took him out to see the other side of the world. But now he has begun to recover, and you will be able to see him in a few years."

Lou Xiao'e heard this and said: "So that's what happened... I just said, originally, I said that I wouldn't care about the children from now on, and I would just go and see for myself. Did you suddenly realize that there is something wrong with running the country?"

Li Yuan nodded and said: "Daxue has been running around on business trips all year round. Of course his nature in governing the country is not bad, but when everyone around him is praising and praising his mother for running the country and bringing peace and prosperity to the economy, praising him for being a human being If a dragon or a phoenix comes in, a person is virtuous and talented, he will be stunned. He really thinks that the world is at peace and the world is harmonious.

If he was just Xiaoliu in our family, then it wouldn't be a big deal to be so naive. But he still aims high. In order to prevent him from harming others and himself in the future, we let him see clearly in advance what the real sufferings of the people are and what power can bring. If you understand this, you won't be so naive when doing things in the future. If any child in the family wants to see this, I will take you to see it too. It is difficult to enjoy happiness, but if you want to endure hardship, there will be endless suffering in this world. "

At this moment, only Xiaoba is at home, a young man who is also 1.6 meters tall. He gestures his thumb to his father. He is hiding behind his thumb. He doesn’t know whether he is giving his father a thumbs up or taking a test. The father's facial proportions, ready for a sketch.

Liu Xuefang patted his head and said to Li Yuan: "Because we are too pressed for time, only Xiaoqi and Xiaoba are at home. Fugui took people out for training, and the work will be completed tomorrow. Jixiang and Ruyi are in the laboratory with What kind of scholars are you studying with? We didn’t call them. We just called them and asked them to go home for dinner in the evening.”

Gao Weihong said: "Jiu'er should come back tomorrow. She comes back once every five days, and tomorrow is exactly the fifth day."

Lou Xiao'e said: "Tangyuan is entertaining the group's senior management and middle-level management at the Datang Restaurant. Tomorrow we will treat the senior executives and their families to a family dinner at home."

Li Yuan said: "Let me go over there, otherwise this boy Shiba will get a stomach ulcer again. Let's have a family dinner tonight."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said: "Go."

After Li Yuan left, Liu Xuefang sighed and said, "If you raise a son who is one hundred years old, you will have ninety-nine worries. For such a free and easy person like Yuanzi, he said he would just leave it alone, but in the end, he is still worried."

Gao Weihong smiled and said: "This is life. Otherwise, people like him would have either become aloof and ruthless emperors in ancient times, or they would become monks and enter temples to seek immortality and ask questions. This is good."

When Lou Xiao'e heard the words, she nodded repeatedly, deeply convinced.

…

Central, Datang Restaurant.

Since its opening today, Datang Restaurant has established its position in the catering industry on Hong Kong Island with its excellent selection of ingredients, superb cooking skills, and humble and high-quality service.

Coupled with countless promotions in film and television works, this place has become a place that countless Asian tourists must check in to visit and taste, and therefore it has become a cash cow of Datang Group.

The restaurants opened in Kowloon are friendly to the people, but those opened in Central, where land is at a premium, are high-end.

Today, Datang Restaurant in Central is closed to welcome customers because Datang Group is hosting a year-end party.

When Li Yuan arrived, Li Xing and the members of the management committee had already finished their speeches, listed the achievements of the previous year, looked forward to the goals for the coming year, distributed awards to outstanding employees, and were about to have dinner and drinks.

Eighteen-year-old Li Yuan is now one of Li Xing's important assistants. Especially on this occasion, he is still a member of the Li family and has a very important role.

But this job is really not good-looking. Even if the wine cup is replaced with water, if you continue to toast all the way, just after toasting the senior executives’ wine table, people will be drunk...

After a staff member said something in Li Xing's ear, Li Xing's eyes lit up and he hurriedly led people to greet him. He saw his father Li Yuan actually coming.

Li Xing shouted happily: "Dad! Why are you here?"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "In the past two years, I almost drank my stomach to death. This year, I will do it. I can't help with big things, so I can help with small things like this."

Li Xing was startled when he heard this, and Li Yuan, who was following behind, became even more stunned, his nose was sore, and he almost shed tears.

It turned out that my eighth uncle had always cared about him.

Li Xing scratched his head and said: "Dad, I really persuaded Brother Shiba to stop drinking. He..."

Li Yuan also wanted to explain, but Li Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "As for my family, it is normal for you to care about him and for him to want to take care of you. No, am I, who is better at drinking, here to help you? I think it's already The food is served, shall we start?”

Li Xing nodded and smiled, and was about to step forward to say a few words. Li Yuan said: "Okay, I won't stop rambling. The food is cold and people are too embarrassed to eat it. They just wait for me. Let's just drink wherever we go."

Li Xing said happily: "Dad, I'll come first. If I can't hold on any longer, Brother 18 will come, and then you can come."

Li Yuan chuckled: "Looking down on me? Stop talking nonsense and let's go."

Li Yuan laughed strangely twice and said, "I have heard that the Eighth Uncle is revered as the Immortal of Wine!"

Li Yuan glanced at him and said, "Who said that?"

Li Yuan was really not afraid of this, and said cheerfully: "Li Chang! He has lived in the Nanluoguxiang courtyard for more than a year. I heard from people in the courtyard that when Uncle Eighth got married to Aunt Eighth, you singled out Aunt Eighth. Siheyuan! What we drank is still high-concentration Erguotou! Quack! I have to knock them over today!"

Li Yuan was happy when he heard this, and then, accompanied by Li Xing and Li Yuan, he came to the first table: "Hey, Mr. He, you don't have to stand up. You have worked hard for a year. I just came back from the mainland. I heard that Today is the company's annual meeting, so I came here specifically to toast you, the group's heroes. But Mr. He, you are 90 this year, so I will drink three glasses to show my respect, you can do whatever you want. Mr. He, Li Xing thanks you for taking the trouble. "

After saying that, Li Yuan held the glass and Li Xing poured the wine, using the red wine on the table.

Hong Kong Islanders basically do not drink liquor from the mainland. The so-called liquor is also white wine.

But the drinking cup is much larger than that of liquor...

After Li Yuan drank three glasses in a row, He Shanheng finished the glass of wine tremblingly. Li Guowei and other financial executives raised their glasses to express their gratitude.

Li Yuan shook hands one by one and rushed to the next table: "Awen, Datang Medicine has done a great job for its hard work. Everyone, thank you for your hard work. Let's do this, I'll drink three glasses in a row."

"Brother Zhang, I'm very pleased to congratulate you on the outstanding achievements of semiconductors this year. You are all great talents. I hope you can reach a higher level next year and create greater glory. I'd like to toast."

"Manager Cao, Datang Steel has a bright future. Keep up the good work... I will drink three glasses of wine to pay tribute to all the talented people!"

Li Yuan didn't know most of the people behind him. Li Xing introduced them while Li Yuan drank.

At the beginning of the banquet, everyone was in a commotion, coming from behind. Everyone wanted to see what the legendary founder of the group who had never seen the dragon was like.

But when we got to the back, the people who had toasted at the back couldn't sit still.

Oh my God, how much did you drink?

When the drink was a third of the way, the applause started.

After two-thirds of the drink, the male genes that worship the strong began to explode in the men's bodies, and the cheers from every table after that became deafening.

After the last table was finished, the atmosphere in the hall reached its climax, just like the momentum of the Tang Empire today, so angry that it soared into the sky! !

The man who used to be polite and courteous in the past became wild at this moment, jumping, shouting, cheering and worshiping!

When Li Yuan's expression remained unchanged and he waved goodbye to everyone, the applause was like thunder.

After witnessing Li Yuan standing upright and striding away, the cheers broke through the sky again.

With such an awesome person in charge, who dares to say that the Tang Dynasty cannot achieve the great cause of the empire? !

…

"Dad, are you okay?"

"Uncle Eighth, are you okay?"

In the evening, Li Yuan was making dumplings with his wives and eldest sister. His three sons, one daughter and four daughters-in-law were kneading the noodles, rolling out the dough, and mixing the side dishes. Li Xing and Li Yuan rushed in, Concerned asked.

Li Yuan was too lazy to pay attention to them, and said with disdain: "Forget it, you won't be back until the dumplings are wrapped, right?"

Seeing that he was fine, Li Xing and Li Yuan began to tell Lou Xiao'e and the others about today's grand occasion.

The whole family was surprised, and after checking Li Yuan and confirming that he was really not drunk after a thousand cups, they also worshiped him, making Li Yuan laugh happily.

I was thinking that I would take time to go back to the courtyard during the Chinese New Year and treat the neighbors to some red wine.

"Get off the dumplings, get off the noodles, and cook the dumplings. After eating, we'll go back tomorrow and then the day after tomorrow. From now on, when we go out at home, we won't be able to take the same plane."

Li Yuan said with a smile.

Everyone can understand that Li Xing was busy making dumplings with Li Yuan.

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said: "This is a small reunion, and it will be a big reunion after returning to the palace."

What a wonderful day of reunion.

…

PS: Yesterday, the elderly and children had a fever. It was a worrying day. Fortunately, the fever has subsided. Sorry for the delay.

Happy New Year, southern friends~

I wish you all good health!
