The first thing I thought of was that the Lou family might have some information channels.
But after a second thought, I rejected this idea.
The current Lou family is like a centipede. Even if there are any special channels, they will not use them easily.
In other words, this high probability should be analyzed by Lou Hongyi through some public information.
Although this kind of intelligence analysis ability is rare, it is not uncommon.
Thinking of this, Du Fei couldn't help but understand.
No wonder the Lou family was able to develop such a large family business during the turbulent times.
It turns out that Lou Hongyi still has this unknown ability.
Du Fei smiled and said, "Uncle Lou, this involves a major military matter. Are you sure you want to ask?"
Lou Hongyi's expression froze. He was originally full of confidence and calm, but his defense was broken instantly.
He laughed awkwardly, "Um... I'm the one who's being rude. I'm going to drink a glass of wine as a penalty. I'm going to drink a glass of wine as a penalty~"
As he spoke, he got a glass for himself and drank it in one gulp.
Du Fei watched him finish drinking, then looked at Xu Daimao next to him, and said with a smile, "Uncle, we are not outsiders. Brother Mao, you don't know the relationship between Sister Lou and me. If you have anything to say, just tell me.
Use that trick from outside."
Lou Hongyi chuckled and shook his head helplessly.
My heart says this is because the situation is stronger than the person!
Even if his analysis is correct, Du Fei can knock him back with just one sentence, leaving him unable to do anything.
Lou Hongyi simply put away some of his original negotiation habits and said directly, "Chief Du, our Lou family loves the motherland and is willing to make a contribution to the country..."
Du Fei was listening on the side and already understood what the Lou family meant.
This time, the steel rolling mill sold the steel products to Xiangjiang, and Lou Hongyi was keenly aware of the opportunity.
It seems that this means that you want to get a share of the game, or you can just say a share.
It's just that this is just the first contact, so it's impossible to reveal your trump card. I just reveal it a little to see Du Fei's reaction.
It's around eight o'clock in the evening.
Du Fei went home and Xu Daimao sent him out.
As for Lou Hongyi, he drank a lot tonight, and due to his age, he was too drunk and was already drunk.
Arriving at the door of Du Fei's house, Xu Daimao was in no hurry to leave.
He doesn't drink less at night, but since he became a leader, he has learned to exercise restraint and no longer drinks like a desperate guy like in the past.
Although he was drunk at this time, his mind was still clear.
He glanced back in the direction of his home and whispered, "Brother..."
Du Fei said "Hmm", not knowing what Xu Daimao meant by being so mean.
Xu Daimao thought for a while, "Brother, you are extremely smart, you must understand what my father-in-law means~"
Du Fei nodded and waited for him to continue.
Xu Daimao turned around again and took a look at his house, "Can you tell me how risky this thing is? Tell me, Ezi and I finally had a child, and I even became a section chief in the factory.
I don't have to worry about food and clothing, but I really don't know what to worry about."
Du Fei smiled, "Xu Daimao is really a man whose wife and children are on the hot bed."
It doesn't matter if you say he has no future or if you say he cares about his family, that's all he is anyway.
Lou Hongyi is more like an old wolf, even though he is already old and is temporarily in trouble.
Ambition is still burning in my heart.
Xu Daimao is like a husky. He looks like a wolf, but he is actually a dog.
Du Fei said, "Brother Mao, what do you... mean?"
Xu Daimao was a little embarrassed, but for the sake of his family, he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, to tell you the truth, this time it was actually my uncle who wrote a letter home a few days ago."
"Oh?" Du Fei didn't expect it. There is also this situation.
Lou Xiao'e had two biological brothers. They both left before liberation. One was in Xiangjiang and the other was in Dongyang.
Du Fei asked, "What does the letter say?"
Xu Daimao shook his head, "I didn't know that. The letter was sent from Guangzhou. Although it passed through my hands, I couldn't open it and read it."
Even so, Du Fei could guess what the boss of the Lou family said in his letter after meeting with Lou Hongyi today.
Obviously, this victory in Xiangjiang caused many people who were frustrated in Xiangjiang to have some speculative ideas.
The eldest son of the Lou family is one of them.
In recent years, although the Lou family has a strong financial background, it has not developed well after going to Xiangjiang.
It is because of the squeeze from local forces.
Unfortunately, they themselves had no foreign aid, so they could only retreat and lie dormant.
I must have been suppressed too hard. When I saw the opportunity this time, I immediately took action.
Du Fei estimated that not only the Lou family, but also many people in Xiangjiang would contact us through various channels.
We hope to take advantage of this situation to squeeze out more living space in Hong Kong.
However, Du Fei was not optimistic about this.
First of all, these people are mainly speculators, their butts are not stable, they may jump at any time, and they are not trustworthy.
Secondly, domestic capital has almost completely disappeared in recent years.
The best ones are just like the Lou family, hiding their wealth and dormant, and their strength is weakened to the extreme.
In other aspects, I also have many concerns. If I am not forced to a certain extent, I will never easily get involved with them.
Just like this time, Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.
If the factory had not shut down, Li Mingfei would have had no choice but to hastily agree to sell the steel to Xiangjiang.
This transaction is certainly no problem financially, but it must bear other risks.
Facing this kind of risk, Li Mingfei is not afraid.
But if the factory can't resume work, he doesn't need to be the factory director. It doesn't matter if the risk is not risky.
In short, based on the current situation, Du Fei is not optimistic about the Lou family's speculation unless there are special circumstances.
But……
Thinking of this, Du Fei couldn't help but look towards Xu Daimao's house.
Lou Hongyi is not an ordinary person. If Du Fei can understand it, can he not?
But now that he saw it, why did Lou Hongyi come to Du Fei?
It's obvious that the Lou family still has some cards in their hands that they haven't revealed yet.
Adding this factor, Lou Hongyi felt that there was something possible.
Du Fei patted Xu Daimao on the shoulder, "Brother Mao, don't worry, if anything happens, you three... I will protect you."
Xu Daimao breathed a sigh of relief and ignored Du Fei's deliberate failure to mention Lou's father and Lou's mother.
Now, his wife and children are his bottom line, and everything else is secondary.
Moreover, Xu Daimao, the son-in-law, was extremely benevolent and righteous when he rescued Lou's father and Lou's mother last time.
Things are going well now. Although the living conditions are not as good as before, my father and mother are in good health.
Xu Daimao is very satisfied with his current life.
The Lou family wanted to cause trouble. Although he didn't say it, he was very unhappy in his heart.
In the future, if things really go wrong, he won't be able to care so much.
Only then did he reveal to Du Fei the circumstances of the Lou family's boss' letter, which also made his position clear.
At the same time, at Xu Daimao's house.
Lou's mother made a cup of strong tea and placed it on the coffee table in front of Lou's father.
At this time, Lou's father was leaning on the sofa and rubbing the acupuncture points on the bridge of his nose vigorously.
After a while, he took a deep breath, picked up the tea cup and sighed, "I'm old~"
Lou's mother complained, "You know you're getting old, so don't drink so much. Du Fei didn't force you."
Father Lou smiled bitterly and shook his head, "They didn't force me, but we have to have an attitude, otherwise why would they help our family?"
Lou Xiao'e had just put her child to sleep and came out of the back room.
As the old saying goes, it's not like a family doesn't come into the same house.
Lou Xiao'e's current thoughts are similar to Xu Daimao's.
After having a child, in addition to focusing solely on the child, the importance of Xu Daimao's family in her heart also became heavier.
This time, Lou's father and Lou's mother suddenly wanted to find Du Fei, but she was not very happy in her heart.
At that time, I told Lou’s father, “Dad, how old are you? Why are you still messing around!”
It's a pity that Lou's father didn't listen to his advice, so there was nothing she could do.
Lou Xiao'e came to sit next to Lou's father and said, "Dad, what did eldest brother write to you in the letter? You didn't reveal it when you saw Du Fei today, what do you mean~"
Lou Xiao'e made no secret of her dissatisfaction with her eldest brother.
Speaking of which, Lou Xiao'e's feelings for her two brothers are not very deep.
They left before liberation, when Lou Xiao'e was only five or six years old.
For the next twenty years, there was almost no contact.
Now that it suddenly appeared and disrupted her life, it was strange that she was happy.
Lou Hongyi looked at his daughter, shook his head and said, "Girl, you don't understand~"
Lou Xiao'e pouted and said "cut".
To put it bluntly, it favors boys over girls.
I don't want to think about it, when life and death are at stake, she is not the daughter and son-in-law by my side.
It's just that I think about these words, but I definitely can't say them out.
At this time, the door opened and Xu Daimao came back from outside.
Lou Xiao'e stood up and went to greet him, complaining, "Really, it's already been a few months. I just go out after drinking something warm, and I don't even know how to bring a hat."
Xu Daimao said hey, "It's okay, I have a good physique."
Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes at him and asked, "Send Du Fei back?"
Xu Daimao nodded and said with emotion, "You said, this person really has no place to look at. At that time, a child without a father and a mother failed to pass the college entrance examination and was given a job. Who could have imagined that in just two years, he was transferred to
I am the section chief of such a big government office."
Lou Xiao'e also nodded.
Speaking of which, she knew Du Fei's past better than Xu Daimao.
Xu Daimao didn't take Du Fei seriously at first.
Lou Xiao'e, on the other hand, was extremely bored and had a good temper, so she helped Du Fei a lot.
Xu Daimao added, "By the way, Du Fei will get married in a few days."
Lou Xiao'e was surprised and said, "It's settled~ It's only been a few days, why didn't he say anything?"
Xu Daimao said, "We don't need to be busy in the courtyard. Everyone goes to the factory canteen. Director Li will arrange it, and Zhuzi will be in charge of cooking."
Lou Xiao'e was even more surprised: "Huh? Director Li still cares about this matter?"
On the contrary, Lou's father was not surprised. He understood the significance of selling steel products from the rolling mill to Xiangjiang.
I also understand how much benefit Li Mingfei gained from this matter.
It's a pity that before liberation, I could have taken this opportunity to give Du Fei a big gift.
The kind of gift that is so heavy that it can scare people.
It will be convenient to ask Du Fei for help then.
But now, all I can do is watch.
When he thought of this, Lou Hongyi felt helpless.
Then I thought about what my eldest son said in his letter. , the newly established line is also somewhat concerned about gains and losses.
There is a line outside, and if Du Fei is contacted again in China, the Lou family, as a middleman, or manager, will definitely be able to make a lot of profits from it.
More importantly, with the help of these two lines, the Lou family can completely get rid of the forces that originally suppressed their family.
By then, the couple won't have to be trapped in the country.
It's just about finding wealth and wealth in danger.
Since this matter has such great benefits, it naturally involves huge risks.
Lou Hongyi has never made up his mind.
This is why, when Du Fei was invited to dinner this time, he only briefly tried to test the situation and did not directly reveal his trump card.
Lou Hongyi thought about it and realized that Du Fei was going to get married in a few days.
The matter in Xiangjiang is not urgent. Let's wait until Du Fei gets married.
I had an idea in my mind, I felt relaxed, and I could no longer suppress the drunkenness just now.
Fortunately, Xu Daimao's house is quite spacious.
After working hard for a while, they arranged for the father-in-law and mother-in-law to lie down, and Xu Daimao and Lou Xiao'e returned to the back room.
Looking at the sleeping baby on the bed, the two of them smiled knowingly.
He took off his clothes and lay down with the child under his arms.
Xu Daimao reached out and turned off the light.
When the room became dark, he suddenly said, "Ezi, you won't abandon me and the child, will you?"
Lou Xiao'e was stunned and understood what Xu Daimao meant, that he was worried that she would suddenly leave with her parents.
Lou's father and Lou's mother had no choice but to leave because of the current situation.
But now, with the new changes taking place in Xiangjiang, the situation is no longer the same as last year.
Besides, let Lou Hongyi put down his body and sweep the streets.
Although he said it was nothing and felt his body was better than before, to put it bluntly, it was all about joy in suffering.
If there is really a chance to go to Hong Kong and continue to be a capitalist, no one will be happy to let it go.
Lou Xiao'e turned sideways and said angrily, "You're silly. They say that when you marry a chicken, you follow the dog. When I marry you, I am the Xu family. You, me and the little dog Dan'er, we are one family."
"Ezi, I..." Xu Daimao's nose was sore and his voice was choked.
At the same time, Du Fei's side.
Not long after returning home, Qin Huairou came.
He helped boil water to wash his face, wash his feet, and wipe his body... He waited on Du Fei until he got into bed upstairs.
Finally he said, "Go to sleep, I'm going back."
"Don't go~" Du Fei smiled and reached out to grab her hand.
Qin Huairou pouted, "Don't make trouble, you haven't had sex with a woman these past few days, and you drank again today. Let's take a break, don't be willful, be careful of emptying yourself!"
Du Fei was not too surprised and said with a smile, "You know?"
Du Fei doesn't go back to the courtyard every day these days.
Qin Huairou said that he had never broken up with a woman, obviously knowing that he still had a woman outside.
Qin Huairou rolled her eyes at him, "Wang Yufen from the district branch, right? There was something going on in the factory before. I went there to do some work and I met her. She is indeed a beauty. Who would have thought that she would bring trouble to an enemy like you?"
."
In fact, Qin Huairou had known about Wang Yufen for a long time.
Last time, Wang Yufen came to see Du Fei several times because of Wang Xiaodong's matter.
He also took the initiative to recommend himself pillow seats.
Qin Huairou noticed her at that time.
The main reason is that Wang Yufen's situation is too similar to hers, both are beautiful and attractive little widows.
It's just that Qin Huairou pretended to be deaf and dumb, so Quan didn't know.
It wasn't until this time that Du Fei was about to get married and he deliberately revealed Wang Yufen's existence.
