Rebirth in the leisurely life of the red age

"After returning, I sent someone to tell my eldest brother Cheng, and asked him to continue to secretly rely on Lin Shaoliang to ensure the expansion of the five Shuanglin timber factories built by Datang Group in Kalimantan, which is crucial to our furniture industry."

This was the content of Li Xing’s conversation with his father early in the morning on the second day of the Lunar New Year before returning to Hong Kong Island.

This left Li Xing speechless during the several-hour flight.

If you think about it carefully, it has been eleven years since 1982, when the eldest brother Cheng was exiled to Java for making mistakes.

Since 1983, for ten years, in addition to investing in small industries such as restaurants, movie theaters, and Dragon Tiger Medicine Halls in big cities such as Jakarta, we have also invested in small industries such as the southern coast of Kalimantan. Five large wood processing plants were invested.

Kalimantan, the third largest island in the world, is 80% covered by forest.

However, the southern islands of more than 500,000 square kilometers occupied by Indonesia have barren land and scarce minerals. The southern terrain is low and gentle, mostly wetlands and swamps, making it difficult to farm.

There are many primitive tribes in the inland areas who hunt human heads.

In short, among the more than 18,000 islands in Indonesia, it does not have much of a presence.

Poor and backward.

Datang Group spent ten years investing in five large-scale wood processing plants here. In fact, it suffered losses most of the time in the past.

The infrastructure of the port and terminal alone cost a lot of money. Later, when the lumber could not be sold, large warehouses were built. Among the people of Kalimantan, which is what ancient China considered Borneo, this company was a living Buddha, providing There are so many jobs, although most of the jobs are taken by Chinese in Pontianak and Singkawang cities.

Among the hundreds of thousands of people in Pontianak, Chinese account for one-third, and the proportion in Singkawang is even higher. More than 40% of them are Chinese.

However, the investment is so large and the return is not high. In the eyes of the Javanese authorities, it is almost like being taken advantage of.

If East Kalimantan is about the same, because there are oil and natural gas resources there, Brunei relies on these to become a rich country...

In the past few years, as the high-priced and high-quality furniture manufactured by Datang has been exported to Europe and the United States, the warehouse has been emptied out.

But profits are still very thin.

Li Xing subconsciously thought that there must be something wrong inside, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what the problem was...

However, he is also used to his father's style, setting up magical situations and just executing them properly.

But he still had a strong curiosity in his heart.

It took my father four years to deploy Japan, and three years to deploy Mao Xiong. The benefits can be seen...

It took ten or even eleven years to build five lumber mills. What did my father want to gain?

Li Xing can't think of...

…

March 5th, the Waking of Insects.

Deep in the flowers.

"Godfather, godfather..."

Chen Xiaoxu has picturesque features and is charming and compassionate. If she changes her down jacket into ancient clothes, no one can tell who is Daiyu and who is Xiaoxu.

Before Li Yuan opened his eyes, he responded: "Huh?"

Chen Xiaoxu pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "Zhang Li and I went to work. We left breakfast on the radiator in the restaurant. Don't forget to eat it later. The towels and toothbrushes for washing are also ready..."

Li Yuan then opened his eyes, looked at the beauty, smiled lazily, and said, "Why do you go to work so early?"

Chen Xiaoxu rolled his eyes at him and said: "Didn't I tell you last night that artists from Hong Kong Island and Wanwan are coming today, plus more than 800 people from the mainland, my God. Fortunately, the host is relatively reliable, and there are Zhao Zhongxiang and Ni Ping, on the Hong Kong Island side are Eric Tsang and Chen Xinjian.”

Li Yuandao: "You are a brokerage company. Just make sure your personnel don't make mistakes. You are not responsible for the specific handling process. It's okay. Is there any Qigong in the performance?"

Chen Xiaoxu nodded and said helplessly: "We can't interfere with this. Fortunately, there are others. The main ones in the mainland are Peking Opera performances, ancient town performances, pantomime sketches, thousands of people singing together and Chinese Qigong."

Li Yuan sat up, his bare upper body muscles were in the shape of water flow, and he was natural and powerful. Chen Xiaoxu spat lightly, but couldn't bear to look away.

The door was opened again, and Zhang Li came in wearing a goose-yellow down jacket. Seeing the "unsightly" scene in the room, her oval face became angry and said: "I warmed up the car outside early in the morning, so you guys... "

Even so, Xing Yan was not willing to move away.

Who says women don’t admire women?

But when Li Yuan lifted the quilt, they both spat softly and turned away.

Li Yuan looked down at his boxer briefs speechlessly. Alas, feudal ideas are harmful to people...

After he got dressed under the service of his two goddaughters, Chen Xiaoxu said, "I just wear a shirt underneath, and I'm not afraid of dying from the cold!"

Li Yuan asked strangely: "Don't you know how powerful your godfather is?"

"Pooh!"

Chen Xiaoxu's pretty face was shy, and he spat again, saying: "My godmother has returned to Hong Kong Island, and you bully us. We will file a complaint later!"

Li Yuan chuckled and said, "Let's go, I'll go with you to take a look. Lest anyone can't carry it clearly and bully you."

Although I have never chased celebrities, I still want to join in the fun.

Never before, and never again in the future, can so many performing arts stars gather together for such a patriotic charity performance.

Zhang Li went to help Li Yuan get steamed buns and bean juice to eat in the car.

After leaving the door, there were two cars parked outside.

The car in the front belonged to Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li, and the car in the back belonged to the bodyguards arranged by the Li family, two men and two women.

As usual, Chen Xiaoxu drove, and she preferred it.

Li Yuan sat in the back row and ate breakfast under Zhang Li's care, and finally got a piece of chewing gum.

“How are the ticket sales going?”

Li Yuan asked.

Zhang Li smiled and said: "It has been sold out a long time ago. There are so many rich people now. Godfather, why are the tickets set so high? The first three rows cost 500 yuan, which is almost as much as two months' salary of an ordinary worker." .”

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Only those who spend money will cherish it."

According to the original trajectory, the first twenty rows were filled with people from some government departments, and their levels were not low.

This is nothing more than a waste of time. People have traveled thousands of miles to come to a charity performance, and big names from all walks of life gather together. There is hard work without credit, right? At least you have to show some respect, at least wait until the show is over before leaving.

As a result, the gentlemen stood up and left before the performance was over.

When the artists were singing the chorus, below was a group of middle-aged and elderly people leaving the stage expressionlessly.

And regardless of whether these people didn't understand or maintained their identities, there was almost no interaction in the audience and the applause was stingy.

so awkward.

This charity performance is different. Li Yuan spoke so unpleasantly in front of Mr. Sui, so this time we will completely follow the market economy and everyone will buy tickets.

Even though some relevant leaders in the first row have arranged it, this is still not easy to eradicate...

Zhang Li smiled and said: "I heard that there are still many people who call directly to ask for tickets, but this time it is jointly organized by the propaganda unit, CCTV and TVB. It will be broadcast live tomorrow night, and TVB will also broadcast it to the Chinese world around the world, and the above will directly He gave a death order, so he offended many people."

Li Yuan chuckled and said: "Anyway, we are not the organizers. But it doesn't matter. Whoever wants to fight, let's fight. My big gun is already hungry and thirsty."

"Oops~"

Zhang Li was delicate and thought what he said was indecent.

Chen Xiaoxu was delighted, she liked it.

In fact, even in "Red Mansions", there are not so many troubles, Daiyu is still playful and mischievous.

After arriving at the Grand Hall, no one from Hong Kong Island had arrived yet.

But all the mainland artists are here, including Ni Ping and Zhao Zhongxiang.

Even Mao Amin, one of the most popular singers in Mainland China, knows that not many people have heard of Chen Fangyuan, but her "Wandering Song" and her cover of "Childhood" in the 1980s made her popular in the mainland in the 1980s and 1990s.

Of course, the cover of "Childhood" actually has no copyright, and mainland fans always think that she is the original singer...

Later, Cheng Fangyuan married the guy who played He Shen who smashed antiques, got divorced, and disappeared.

But at this time, he is still second only to Mao Amin.

There is also Hang Tianqi. The most familiar song that Hang Tianqi has sung is "Loess High Slope", but this song was actually sung by An Wen.

Who is An Wen? Qingwen, let’s find out...

There is also Yehenala Ying, who started her career singing covers of Su Rui's songs, and even changed her name to Su Bing.

Later, Su Bing's name became notorious, and he took another stage name, Su Ran. Haha, he was the king of sex manipulation from beginning to end.

There are also Yang Yuying, Mao Ning, Xie Xiaodong and others...

No need to count, now both dragon and insect are under the banner of Datang Brokerage.

Even Yehenala Ying found eight connections and became his subordinate.

Now that the two queens of Datang Agency have arrived, everyone naturally gathered around them.

All kinds of greetings and compliments.

Li Yuan did not let the two reveal his identity, and stood on the outside like a bodyguard watching the excitement with a cold eye.

The two girls have really learned through experience that they can keep an appropriate distance in their dealings with each other, but at the same time take care of everyone.

However, when the queen above the two queens, Tian Ling, arrived, Li Yuan's identity was exposed.

"Uncle Eighth, are you here too?"

After all, Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li are still considered insiders. They have a very good relationship with Wang Fulin's circle at CCTV and get along well with other big names.

Even if we keep some distance, everyone can understand.

But Tian Ling is different. She directly takes the title of the cold-faced queen of the entertainment industry.

No one among the big names in the company dared to make fun of her, and Tian Ling's direct background also made the leaders of relevant departments give her three points.

This person followed Qin Daxue and appeared next to many important people whose names cannot even be mentioned casually.

Her "eighth uncle" naturally revealed Li Yuan's identity.

The scene became quiet for a moment, and Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li were overjoyed.

Tian Ling was so smart. She looked at the helplessness on Li Yuan's face and saw the two "little aunts" smiling like that. Tian Ling said embarrassedly: "Uncle Eighth, you didn't even say a word in advance when you came. I'll just come over and take a look." Ah Zhi and Vivian’s plane will arrive in a while, I’ll pick them up.”

After saying that, he gave the two aunts who were gloating over his misfortune a blank look and ran away in a hurry.

Ni Ping was the first sister of CCTV and was not signed to Datang, so she had a more detached status. She asked Chen Xiaoxu with a smile: "Xiaoxu, this gentleman is..."

Sister Ni's appearance when she was young was worthy of being stunning.

Chen Xiaoxu smiled generously and said: "Sister Ni, this is our godfather, Mr. Tian's eighth uncle, and the chairman of Datang Group in Hong Kong. But in Hong Kong, everyone also calls him Dr. Li because of his duties as godfather. The job is to be a doctor.”

It is estimated that there are ten thousand eyes flying around in this studio, and the various eyes are as complicated as gamma rays.

But in summary, it is nothing more than envy, jealousy and hatred.

Ni Ping has never seen such a big shot. At this moment, he generously stepped forward to shake hands and exclaimed: "I just said, the young man standing over there is really handsome. I never imagined that you would be like this. A big shot, and his age is also..."

Li Yuan's opening remarks were much more natural: "Miss Ni Ping, my mother likes you very much."

Zhang Li laughed next to her and said, "Sister Ni, don't many people guess how Xiaoxu and I are Dr. Li's goddaughters? Well, that's the reason."

This shows Ni Ping's hosting skills. Regardless of whether it is true or false, she said with a look of surprise: "So Dr. Li, do I have this honor?"

Everyone around them laughed, and Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li looked at Li Yuan with their wonderful eyes.

Li Yuan said cheerfully: "There is an allusion here. My mother heard that the filming of a TV series was about to begin. When she saw the two of them in the "TV News", she was both fond and worried. What she liked was that they looked very much like the characters in the original novel, but what she worried about was that they would last forever. After filming, they will get too involved in the drama, and they will not be able to escape the tragic ending of Qian Hongyi crying in the future.

My mother likes to watch TV dramas very much. There are probably not many people in mainland China who watch TV dramas more than her, so they know more.

Her worries were quite reasonable. I didn't visit Ban during the filming. When I looked after the filming, I saw that Xiao Xu had lost his shape and Zhang Li was as cold as a snowdrift. I decided to make another movie called "A Play on the Red Chamber". This movie was not released in mainland China, but it was very popular in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia. My mother liked them both very much and decided to let me adopt them as my goddaughters. I don't have much time in mainland China, so they usually take care of my mother's duties on my behalf, and we get along well with the old man. Miss Ni doesn't have any tragedy, so forget it. "

Ni Ping looked at Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li and said: "Look how kind Dr. Li is to you. Such a great man has made so many contributions to our country. He still explains this origin in such a eloquent way, just to prevent you from being fooled again." Some people are throwing dirty water, but I'm taking care of you."

Chen Xiaoxu is brave: "We are not afraid! After receiving so many good things and being liked and respected by so many people, we are ready to be scolded and slandered."

Zhang Li also smiled and said: "We can't let us take advantage of all the good things."

Ni Ping took the lead in applauding.

Li Yuan looked around and asked with a smile: "Where is Liu Huan? Isn't Liu Huan coming?"

Ni Ping: "..."

Zhao Zhongxiang smoothed things over: "Liu Huan is not in good health and may not be able to attend tonight's event. Doctor Li, I'm sorry. But we will try our best to arrange it..."

Li Yuanle said: "Why do you apologize to me? I'm not the organizer. Just go about your business and don't worry about me."

Liu Huan is still banned by CCTV.

After the 1990 Asian Games and Weiwei's song "Asian Heroes" became popular in China, when East China was flooded in 1991, the two held a charity performance together in Forty-Nine City to raise funds for the disaster area.

Unfortunately, after the two decided to publicize the date, CCTV's disaster relief benefit performance was also chosen on this day.

Then you can think of all the dirty things in between. CCTV did not collude with Liu Huan to perform, but announced that he would appear during the performance, causing a performance accident. When Liu Huan learned about it, he came to the performance without saying a word. After the performance, he took the bag with him The bag was still missing, so I got angry and was banned the next day.

Wei Wei is not much better, but she is married to a Swedish foreigner and is currently in Sweden, so the impact is limited.

We have to wait until September this year, after "Beijing People in New York" is broadcast and the opening song "Millions of Questions" written by Liu Huan becomes popular, that the ban will be lifted, because it can't be blocked anymore...

With this great god watching from the side, a group of people were rehearsing more seriously than performing, and Yehenala Ying almost lost her spelling.

Forty minutes later, a young man with a big head and long hair, which made his big head and short stature even more prominent, came over under the leadership of Zhao Zhongxiang. When they met, he bowed and said: "Hello, Dr. Li, I am Liu Huan, thank you very much." I will definitely perform well and do my best for the charity performance for poverty alleviation!"

Zhao Zhongxiang laughed and said: "The leaders of CCTV and the publicity unit heard that Dr. Li liked the singer Liu Huan, so they called him specifically, hoping that he could overcome the difficulties and participate in this charity performance."

Li Yuan chuckled, looked at Liu Huan, who was only thirty years old at this time, and said, "Are you having any difficulties?"

Liu Huan said hurriedly: "No, no, no."

Li Yuandao: "Then go perform well and make music well."

Liu Huan was moved and said: "I will definitely live up to Dr. Li's encouragement!"

As soon as Liu Huan left, Zhao Zhongxiang wanted to say a few words, but Li Yuan turned around and cursed: "Damn, why are you following me wherever I go?"

Zhao Zhongxiang turned around and saw who it was, and walked away silently without saying a word.

He knows Mei Changning.

Mei Changning also cursed and said: "My grandson is here with you! There are so many artists from Hong Kong Island today, and I'm here to explore the way. What's the matter, do I have to ask you for permission?"

"Then stay away from me!"

"I won't!"

"Damn! Are you shameless?"

"What do I want with that thing?"

After Mei Changning sat down next to him, he glanced at the eyes of the group of warblers in front of him, especially Daiyu and Baochai. He couldn't help but look down on Li Yuan and took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket...

Li Yuan was curious: "When did you start smoking? With your body, one puff will shorten your life for three days."

Mei Changning let out a "fuck" sound, took a long breath, raised his head and twisted his neck, and said: "Fat Peng is messing around in Hong Kong Island, and the family is furious. It's only March, and we have already had five rounds of negotiations. , the results are not good."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? Hong Kong Island is a capitalist society, capital is the boss, and Fei Peng can't make any splash."

Mei Changning leaned on the chair and said: "Yes, capital is the big one. In December last year, the Hang Seng Index was still 4,900 points. In January and February, under the massive sweeps of goods by your Li family and British funds, , broke through 6,200 points. Yesterday, it even broke through 6,500 points. However, Hong Kong Financial News reported that if the Li family had not started selling goods from 6,000 points, the Hang Seng Index would have broken through 7,000 points. The Li family Is there any inside information?"

Li Yuandao: "What kind of inside information can there be? It's just that he has seen through Peng Gou. This grandson is a hyena of Britain and the United States and will never let go. In addition, on our home court, inviting British and American funds to have a drink is considered a A meeting gift. But if you want to do this, just make a phone call. If Peng Gou doesn’t take action within a month, I will buy it again. "

"What do you mean? Why are you so sure that he will take action in the near future?"

Mei Changning asked puzzledly.

Li Yuan raised his chin and said: "The most popular celebrities in Hong Kong Island are running here and shouting that the Chinese people are united. Do you think he is in a hurry?"

"..."

Mei Changning looked at Li Yuan with a confused expression, "You can seize the opportunity to make a fortune in this kind of thing?"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Fa Peng is feeling more uncomfortable than you now. If he takes action, I benefit. If he doesn't take action... of course it's impossible. If he doesn't take action, TVB will broadcast the grand event here, and there will be a series of reports in the future. Being able to suppress some of the chaotic atmosphere in Hong Kong Island is something that Fei Peng and the British and American Yamen behind him absolutely cannot accept. Therefore, Datang will definitely make this money. An Ning, go back and prepare well. Brave the storm."

Mei Changning was numb. For a moment, he wanted to stop the charity show.

Of course, it was only for a moment.

This is a war without gunpowder, but it is equally cruel. How could he be the bear of appeasement?

After taking a deep breath, he looked at Li Yuan and said, "Stop playing around and take it off."

Li Yuan said with a smile: "Pushing on the street, what am I playing with? Whether there is this benefit show or not, Peng Gou will cause trouble. Isn't it clear what Li Jiapo said? Don't be so naive and think you can talk about anything good with him. Come out. Let me tell you, what he wants to do will definitely continue. Angsa has been doing this for hundreds of years. Even if they give up the colonization and leave, they will definitely lay the seeds of trouble. This is what they are proud of. tradition of."

Mei Changning sighed again and said: "You think you are the only one who is smart and we don't know about it? Isn't this to open the door to attract foreign investment? We can't be too tough. We can only rely on us to compromise and keep talking, just like his mother Tang Sanzang The long-winded talk of Che Zhuluzi can make people step back a little, and it will make people step back a little. What we strive for is to stabilize the rights and interests of Hong Kong Island as much as possible without affecting the overall situation of reform and opening up. You said we are here for Ourselves?

After Hong Kong Island is taken back, not a penny of tax will be paid, and the system will remain unchanged. Officials will still be Hong Kong Island's team, and the law will still be their law. We will have to spend our own money to station troops to protect them. As a result, those local capitalist bastards on Hong Kong Island are still trying to get power in various ways. Damn it, why don’t they dare to ask for these powers from the British in Hong Kong? I've suffered more in my life than I did on that broken island in a year. "

Li Yuanle said: "Okay, it's already here, and it's only been a few years, and you're still complaining. Be careful if someone changes the general at the last moment, and all your achievements are wasted, and you won't complain anymore."

Mei Changning said stiffly: "Am I afraid of this?"

Li Yuan laughed loudly, and Mei Changning also laughed, touched his bald head and said: "Human, it is true that you can't escape the net of fame and fortune. But Yuanzi, you still have to be careful about Hong Kong Island and don't let that ghost guy make trouble." It’s too much.”

Li Yuandao: "Don't worry, the ghost guys are not fools. They know where our bottom line is. You should be moderately tough."

Mei Changning raised her middle finger, but her expression suddenly became a little strange, and she said, "What's going on with your little eight?"

Li Yuandao: "What's wrong?"

Mei Changning grinned and said: "He is doing human body sketching now, you know that, right?"

"Um."

Li Yuanfeng responded calmly.

Even if those bad things really come out, what will happen?

Mei Changning laughed and said, "He handed out flyers on the street looking for models. Who do you think he found?"

Li Yuan felt something was wrong when he heard the voice and said, "Who?"

Mei Changning couldn't help laughing and said: "Fei Peng's daughter was the second daughter for the first time, and then she took her older sisters to your son's villa studio. Yuanzi, your son can do it!"

"..."

Li Yuan thought about his youngest son's appearance and said, "Did you misunderstand something? He's just a model."

The daughter of Fei Peng, the eternal sinner, or three?

Isn't this nonsense?

Mei Changning patted Li Yuan on the shoulder and said: "Okay, it's a model. As an artist, that's understandable. I just want to remind you to arrange a few more bodyguards for your son. If Fei Peng doesn't think so, I'm afraid of the consequences. It’s going to be serious.”

Li Yuan sneered and said, "I'll lend him another piece of courage to try to touch my son."

"Holy shit!"

Mei Changning didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Your son... forget it, it's all your fault anyway!"

Seeing that the people following him blocked several propaganda unit leaders outside, Mei Changning didn't stay any longer and said: "Let's go, I can't explain to you. I'll go say hello to Tangyuan. You, the more you live, the more domineering you become." .”

Before leaving, he jokingly said to the leaders of the propaganda units: "Don't mess with this guy. He's getting angry. I won't care if he beats him up later."

After saying that, he left, leaving a few men in jackets behind to advance or retreat.

Fortunately, the people from Hong Kong Island arrived.

Tian Ling was walking in the middle wearing a coat. She saw Li Yuan sitting there with an expressionless face, and several publicity units not far away were unable to advance or retreat, so she walked over and said hello, which was a step up.

"dad!"

Zhao Yazhi and Zhou Huimin came over to say hello with a smile.

Li Yuan nodded, his expression naturally relaxed, but the question he asked made the two daughters-in-law confused: "How is Xiaoba's performance recently?"

Zhao Yazhi thought that Li Yuan was still worried about what happened before, so she smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dad, no one in the entertainment industry dares to mess around anymore."

Zhou Huimin smiled and said: "Fugui told Xiaoba to try to find foreign models."

"..."

Li Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, it's okay. Go and do your work."

The two agreed with a smile, muttering in their hearts, and went to get warm with Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li.

Because they had all been greeted in advance, most of the artists on Hong Kong Island smiled and nodded to Li Yuan, and no one dared to come and disturb him.

After Li Yuan sat for a while, he stood up and left.

…

Chaoyangmen Inner Street, Wangfu.

When Li Yuan went home, he unexpectedly met Qin Daxue.

He smiled with surprise: "Yo! Has the sun come out in the west?"

Qin Daxue rolled her eyes at him and said to Mother Li: "Mom, use your eyes less and just listen to the opera box. It's OK if you let me record more storytellers and listen to the opera. Your eyes are not good to begin with, why are you still like this? Watching TV, is that okay?"

Mother Li promised very well: "Okay, I won't read it, I won't read it."

Qin Daxue was helpless. Several times, she promised well and then changed her mind. Every time she came back, the old lady watched intently.

Li Yuan smiled and said: "I won't watch it tomorrow. I will go to the show tomorrow night. Where are my elder brother, sister-in-law and the others?"

Qin Daxue said: "Qin Dashan is gone, let them go back and take a look."

Qin Dashan is the old village chief who has been partnered with Li Gui all his life.

Li Yuandao: "Oh, he is over eighty years old. There are only a few old people in Qinjiazhuang."

Mother Li was a little sensitive: "My body is much stronger than his."

Li Yuan laughed and said, "Of course! My mother is determined to live more than a hundred years!"

Mother Li was happy and said, "I'm not greedy, so I just need to live a hundred years."

Li Yuan and Qin Daxue both laughed.

Mother Li said, "You two, go back to the house. I want to lie down for a while and take a nap."

Li Yuan lived up to his mother's kindness. After sending the old lady back to her bedroom, he took his wife back to West Road Courtyard.

Although both of them knew that the old lady was addicted to TV series and was driving people away.

After leaving the Old Lady's Courtyard, Qin Daxue said: "You still have to advise me. It's not a good thing to overuse your eyes."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will give the old lady acupuncture and eye exercises every night. If I watch it for a while, I will probably get tired of it. Then I will let her listen to the show. At this age, happiness is the most important thing. You Why do you have time to come out?"

Qin Daxue put his hands in his coat pockets and walked in the spotless Lion Courtyard swept by the palace. He said: "After two months of meetings, the personal tax has been finalized. The next step is to tax personal savings interest. But for now, the resistance is still relatively high.”

According to historical trends, this step will take five years. It was implemented for nine years and was canceled in 2008.

Originally, interest earned on personal savings was subject to a 20% tax...

Qin Daxue added: "There are several tough battles to be fought this year, and the next step is the tax sharing system. In addition, the reform of state-owned enterprises has also begun. They used to say that I have a tough temper and ruthless methods, but now it's better. I have a tougher Director Hong. , I can start my work more easily."

Li Yuan burst out laughing and asked, "Does that comrade have any complaints? All that is left to him are the toughest of the toughest."

Qin Daxue shook his head and said: "He is a respectable old comrade. The financial system is out of order. Director Hong sent seven articles in a row, asking the banks to tighten their money supply, but was ignored. Mr. Hong held a meeting, slapped the table and pointed at the nose to hold each bank accountable. He cursed and issued an ultimatum, and then he got the situation under control."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Why aren't you responsible?"

Qin Daxue smiled and said, "I guess I'm worried. Director Hong still has the patience to send out seven essays. I can only send three essays at most."

Li Yuan burst into laughter and said, "If the tax-sharing system can be implemented, you will be under much less pressure. The local governments are richer than you now. If this continues, there will probably be problems."

Qin Daxue nodded and said: "So in the southeastern coastal provinces, I will discuss them one by one, starting with eastern Guangdong."

"..."

Li Yuan glanced at her speechlessly and said, "I really thought you came home today to reunite with me."

When they arrived at Yuanziyuan, Li Yuan poured a cup of tea for Qin Daxue after entering the house: "Here, have a cup of green tea."

"Get out of here! You're the one making green tea!"

Li Yuan taught her this allusion, and then said seriously: "Before leaving Beijing, come and see mom."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Okay, I understand."

Qin Daxue pushed him and said, "Don't think I'm begging you. I don't want to make the situation too ugly and make it difficult for you and Mei Changning to meet."

Li Yuan laughed and said: "Don't worry, I won't be embarrassed at all. Wife, let go of your hands and hit me hard!"

Qin Daxue rolled her eyes at him and sneered: "If I weren't worried about changing the overall situation, do you think I'm afraid of his family?"

Li Yuan touched his chin and said, "That's true."

The fragrant favors that Mr. Cao left to Qin Daxue were so rich that after Mr. Cao passed away, Qin Daxue's status became even more detached...

After thinking about it, Li Yuan said: "Okay, I'll say hello to Mei Changning later and ask him to talk to his family. It's of some use, but it won't be decisive. It still depends on how you do your work."

Qin Daxue said angrily: "I know...what are you doing, annoying!"

As soon as I finished speaking harshly, the person was fished out...

…

"Mom, Dad, why are you here?"

In Villa No. 22, Repulse Bay, Hong Kong Island, Li Xiaoba was immersed in painting something with a paintbrush. The model looked at the person who suddenly came in from the door and shouted in surprise.

The model wears a European classical court dress and reclines on a sofa.

Behind the two visitors, there was a young man with a slightly subtle expression.

"Liz, why are you here?"

The ghost man looked very serious, but when he saw the model wearing such a complicated palace dress, his previous anger was slightly suppressed.

The ghost man is naturally the current nominal boss of Hong Kong Island, Fat Peng.

Also accompanying him was his wife, Lin Yingtong, whose Chinese name she gave herself after coming to Hong Kong Island.

The model is his eldest daughter, Liz.

The person following behind the obese couple was naturally Li Xing.

Today he was invited to a meeting with the Hong Kong government. After the meeting, he was invited by this couple, who seemed to want to seek justice.

If he hadn't received a call at noon and made some arrangements in advance, Li Xing felt that something big might have happened today...

Lisi didn't even get up. She had a very good professionalism, but she looked very unhappy and said: "Dad, didn't you let me support myself and live an independent life? I am now working as an oil painting model, and I earn one hundred and fifty pounds a day. You can do it." What?"

Li Xing coughed and said to Li Xiaoba, who was still painting: "Xiaoba, what's going on?"

Li Xiaoba raised his eyes. There was no need to act on his expression, he just showed his true colors. After turning his eyes around to take a look at the person coming, he lowered his head to draw. His reply was simple: "Draw."

Li Xing twitched the corner of his mouth, looked at Fei Peng and said: "Director Peng, my little brother has been like this since he was a child. He has no interest in anything else except for painting. This is not news in Hong Kong Island. You can Go and ask around.”

Fei Peng said indifferently: "After asking, we know about Li Jiaxin."

Li Xing smiled and said: "My daughter is born into a famous family and she will definitely not do such a thing. I am absolutely confident in this."

obesity:"……"

Lin Yingtong said anxiously: "Lisi, where are your sisters Jiesi and Yasi?"

Li Si said: "They are looking at paintings upstairs. There are many masterpieces by Li in his studio, which are very outstanding. Dad, Mom, if our family can't afford it, then I will definitely ask you to buy one for me."

Lin Yingtong glanced at Li Xiaoba, who was still drawing silly pictures. The expression on his face became better. He turned to Li Xing and said, "Mr. Li, can we go upstairs to see my daughter?"

Li Xing shrugged and said, "Of course, I'm also curious about what paintings my brother has painted recently."

Let's take a look to see if this brat has any tricks.

The group of people went upstairs without fumbling and followed the long corridor to the studio.

Six paintings hang on the corridor: spring, summer, autumn, winter, day and night.

At the end of the corridor, open the heavy door, and there is a huge studio inside.

Apparently it has constant temperature and humidity, and it's filled with paintings.

There are the sun, moon and stars, various natural landscapes, flowers, trees, animals, and family members.

Fei Peng's two daughters were both here. Although they were ghosts, they were actually quite beautiful. When they saw their parents arriving, they were a little surprised, but they didn't say anything.

The second daughter, Peng Jiesi, whispered to Fei Peng and Lin Yingtong: "Mom, Dad, look, this is the world of art."

Fatty asked: "What did you see?"

The third daughter Peng Yasi said: "In every painting, there are such intense and touching emotions. Dad, can't you see it?" She sounded surprised.

In the West, the important self-cultivation quality of nobles is reflected in their appreciation of works of art.

Fatty raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said: "Of course, of course I can see it. I have long heard that Dr. Li's youngest son is a genius in painting, and it was finally confirmed today. So, I drew it with you as the model." Where is the painting? Can I take a look?"

Peng Jiesi said disappointedly: "Dad, we know that we have only been here for two months. Only my sister's painting is still being painted, and we haven't started yet. It's not like you don't know that an excellent oil painting often takes two or three months. Time. Didn’t you just look at Xiaoba’s painting of sister? Wow, that’s the most beautiful art I’ve ever seen.”

After Fei Peng and Lin Yingtong looked at each other, they realized that they were standing from behind, and they really didn't see what the young man had drawn.

The two then exchanged a few words and went downstairs together again.

Li Xing was still moved by Li Xiaoba's drawings for his family. He painted everyone so lifelike and smiling so happily. When he saw the two of them going downstairs, he followed them.

As soon as I turned around, I saw something on the easel in the corner. I narrowed my eyes slightly and walked over calmly. I quietly grabbed it and put it in my pocket. When I took my hand out, I saw a curved stick stuck to the palm of my hand. When I saw the golden retriever, I had already beaten Li Xiaoba eight hundred times in my heart!

…

"Wow!!"

After Fei Peng and Lin Yingtong went downstairs, they walked silently behind Li Xiaoba. When they saw that the main part of the drawing board had actually been completed, they both marveled.

artist!

Absolute artist!

The lifelike eldest daughter seems to be living in the painting.

Not a flat image like a photo, but...a living person between light and shadow.

This kind of work seems to neutralize the freehand brushwork of classical Chinese ink painting and the realism of classical European oil painting, blending the two with warm colors.

If super realism is more sharp than a photo, then this painting obviously gives people a restrained, gentle and comfortable feeling...

Just like this silent, gentle boy.

To say that their three daughters came here to be models was purely because they were attracted by art, Fei and Peng would definitely not believe it.

But such a talented, gentle and shy boy is indeed very attractive to girls.

The only thing that made Fei Peng feel better was that this young man should be as dull and honest as the rumors said, and he was obsessed with painting.

It’s just three daughters, we need to have a good talk when we go home...

…

After Feipeng's family thanked him and left, Li Xing looked at Li Xiaoba who was also speechless.

Seeing that he still dared to be so virtuous, Li Xing took out the transparent pants from his pocket, threw them over, and then looked around to find something handy.

Li Xiaoba hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his eldest brother and said, "Brother, I really didn't mess around!"

Li Xingduo slapped his forehead. He was really angry and said, "What the hell is that thing on the ground?"

Li Xiaoba held his head and said: "They threw it away themselves. I did a sketch of the human body and required them to strip naked. Later they discovered the swimming pool upstairs and the red wine in the wine cabinet, so they would often come here to play. He also drank red wine... My second brother kept the wine here for me, and I have never drank it."

Li Xing gritted his teeth and said, "I'll settle the score with him later! Don't interrupt, so they are still messing with you, right? You dare to come into contact with any random people, so you are not afraid of getting AIDS?"

Li Xiaoba whispered: "I know their father is fat, how could he have AIDS... Big brother, big brother, I really didn't mess around!"

Seeing that Li Xing was about to take action again, Li Xiaoba quickly hugged his eldest brother and explained.

Li Xing couldn't understand the little brother's brain circuit, and said: "Are you really doing it? You are not messing around. What is messing around?"

Li Xiaoba scratched his head and said: "Brother, to draw a good painting, you must draw the soul. To draw a character, you must draw the soul of the character. I am really not an excuse... If I had a wife, I wouldn't have to do this. I would. Inject my wife's soul into the painting. Although it can't fit perfectly, at least the painting is alive, but don't I have a wife now? I'm not talking nonsense, Qi Baishi, you must know that, right? "

Li Xingdao: "I know, if you keep talking, I'll see where you can go."

Li Xiaoba curled his lips unhappily, but in order not to be beaten, he continued: "When Qi Baishi was twelve years old, he found Chen Chunjun, a fifteen-year-old child bride, and gave birth to five children. Then when Qi Baishi was fifty-four, he He found an eighteen-year-old concubine, Hu Baozhu, who gave birth to seven more children. The seventh child was born when Qi Baishi was seventy-eight years old. He didn't want to have another child, so he married her named Liangmo. Unexpectedly, Qi Baishi When she was eighty-three years old, she became pregnant with her eighth child and died of dystocia. Later, when Qi Baishi was ninety-three years old, he asked a matchmaker to introduce him to a man in his forties. He thought he was too old, and later I found a twenty-two year old..."

Seeing that Li Xing was speechless, Li Xiaoba hurriedly continued to give examples: "There is also Zhang Daqian. Brother, you must also know that his first love died when he was nineteen years old. He became a monk in Shenghai Chanding Temple with the name of Daqian. He returned to secular life three months later and found His daughter-in-law was Zeng Zhengrong. Two years later, he married the fifteen-year-old Huang Ningsu and gave birth to eight children. But when Zhang Daqian was thirty-five, he married the nineteen-year-old Yang Wanjun. Zhang Daqian went to Dunhuang twice to visit. The murals were created by Huang Ningsu and Yang Wanjun. Zhang Daqian was forty-eight years old and married his daughter's classmate Xu Wenbo, who was eighteen years old, and there were even more Picassos..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Li Xing interrupted with a bad look on his face: "What do you mean? Do you want to learn from them?"

Li Xiaoba hurriedly said: "Brother, the painter is really just exploring the soul and pursuing the soul of the work."

Li Xingdao: "Then what if you want to draw animals? Also pursue the soul?"

Li Xiaoba shook his head repeatedly and said: "No one cares whether animals have souls. Just draw a sense of life and a little spirituality, but drawing characters is really different, especially the expressions and eyes."

Li Xing asked again: "What should I do if I draw a man?"

Li Xiaoba said: "We should observe and talk with each other for a long time, and then we can draw after we get to know this person."

Li Xing wondered: "Can't you draw women like this?"

Li Xiaoba shook his head and said: "Brother, how can a woman truly have a heart-to-heart relationship with a man? Once she loses her heart, it will be even more terrifying."

Damn it!

Li Xing pinched his eyebrows and finally asked: "Then what are you going to do with these three? Let them say goodbye after painting?"

Li Xiaoba said: "Of course."

It is a matter of course and as it should be.

Li Xing took a long breath and confirmed that his brother was very human. He said: "Stop painting characters after these three people are painted. I will find a suitable marriage for you as soon as possible. You are sixteen years old this year and will be ten years old in one and a half years." Eight or eighteen years old is the legal age for marriage. Is it okay to paint characters again after one and a half years?"

After Li Xiaoba hesitated for a while, he sighed and said: "Okay, I also know that this is not accepted by the world. But, I don't want you to worry."

Li Xing patted his little brother's head and said: "Xiaoba, this is not a question of morality or immorality, this is a question of humanity. I know you don't care about this at all. There is nothing wrong with you loving painting, and you want to paint It's natural to have great works, and your family will support you. But you can't make your life a mess just because of painting. Think about it, if you keep doing this, will you be able to have a beautiful family?

You have to control your hobbies and your emotions, and not be kidnapped by your hobbies and whims. "

Li Xiaoba scratched his head again and said: "Brother, I listen to you. But I really didn't do whatever I wanted. Otherwise, given the conditions of our family, I would have tried my best to bring out the most moving soul and paint eternal masterpieces."

Li Xing squinted and said, "Then why didn't you do this?"

Li Xiaoba chuckled and said, "I'm afraid of being beaten to death by my mother."

Li Xing smiled and scolded: "You brat, it's not bad. I know someone can take care of you. In the future, more people will be sent here, and there will be six more people following you. You can also serve some snacks yourself."

Li Xiaoba nodded, pointed to Li Xing's painting of Li Si, and said proudly: "Brother, this painting can become a famous work!"

Nothing is done in vain!

Li Xing went over to take a look and felt that the painting was good. It felt clearer and more spiritual than the photos. He put his arms around his eighth brother's shoulders, gave a thumbs up and praised: "It's not bad. After the painting was completed, this painting Are you keeping it, or are you giving it to others?"

Li Xiaoba said: "Give it to them."

Li Xing was surprised and said: "Didn't you mean a masterpiece? Is it worth a lot of money?"

Li Xiaoba said: "I won't take advantage of them, and I will draw better ones in the future. After these three paintings are finished, my character skills will be improved to a new level. Then I can draw them for my family and for me." If my wife paints, she will paint better!”

Li Xing smiled and said: "Good boy! Okay, you make your own decisions. Let's go home."

"Um!"
