Qiu Hu drove Lu Ye and drove back towards Luancheng.

The original good mood was completely wiped out by Da Liu's phone call.

Along the way, Lu Ye's face looked a little solemn. Even though Qiu Hu was in second place, he didn't dare to say anything when he saw the serious look on Lu Ye's face.

The atmosphere in the car was somewhat cold. One patron was concentrating on driving, while the other was sitting in the back seat, sometimes closing his eyes and staring into the distance. No one said a word.

After returning to Liancheng, Lu Ye did not go home first. He looked at the time and saw that it was already past 3 pm and the sky was getting dark.

Taking out the mobile phone, Lu Ye dialed it for Da Liu.

"Brother Liu, I'm entering Luancheng." Lu Ye said into the microphone.

"You're back. Come directly to Xuefu Community, Unit 101, Building 2. After the old man retired, he moved out of the municipal party committee compound and bought a house directly." Da Liu said.

"Okay, then I'll go there now."

Lu Ye replied and hung up the phone.

"Huzi, go to Xuefu Community."

Putting away Big Brother, Lu Ye whispered to Qiu Hu.

Xuefu Community is currently the first commercial building community in Luancheng. There are 8 buildings in total. It is by far the best residential complex in Luancheng. The price is not cheap in this era.

"Okay, Brother Ye."

Qiu Hu turned the steering wheel and drove towards Taoshan District on the mountain.

Twenty minutes later, Hu Touben stopped at the downstairs of No. 2 Xuefu Community.

Through the car window, Lu Ye looked at the building outside the window. It was a 6-story small-plank building with a brick-concrete structure. It was not very beautiful, but it was quite new.

There is a small courtyard at the front and back of the first floor, which is surrounded by a fence made of round logs. At this time, the small courtyard is completely covered with snow, and it is impossible to tell what was originally planted in it.

Lu Ye got out of the car and did not knock on the door in a hurry. Instead, he went to the rear of the car. Qiu Hu opened the trunk. There were a lot of cigarettes, liquor, and tea inside.

Lu Ye took out a bag from it and put four bottles of Feitian Moutai in it, and put four boxes of the best West Lake Longjing tea and four boxes of Chinese cigarettes in another bag.

Holding a bag in each hand, they walked into the building's door.

No. 101.

Left hand side.

Lu Ye gently knocked on the door.

Dangdangdang...

"Come on."

It's Da Liu's voice.

He must have known that he was almost there, so Liu must have come here to open the door on purpose, Lu Yeye guessed in his mind.

The door opened, and sure enough, Da Liu's fat head came out.

"Here we come, come in quickly." When Da Liu saw Lu Ye, he opened the door enthusiastically and made room for Lu Ye to enter.

Lu Ye carried the gift and walked sideways into the door.

There is no way, Da Liu must have gained weight recently, and Nuo Da's belly takes up a lot of space.

"Long time no see, Brother Liu." Lu Ye said hello with a smile on his face.

"Hey, come here if you want. What are you bringing?" As he said this, Da Liu didn't refuse and reached out to take the two black bags from Lu Ye's hand.

I took the opportunity to look inside.

"Moutai and China Tobacco, we'll do it when it's time to eat."

Da Liu casually put it aside and pulled Lu Ye into the house.

At this moment, in the living room, an old man with gray hair was sitting on a solid wood Taishi chair, staring at the chessboard in front of him without blinking, thinking about it.

Judging from his sitting position, this should be Da Liu's father, the retired Mayor Liu.

Opposite the old man, there sat a middle-aged man with black beard and hair. Judging from his age, he should be no more than fifty. This should be the Uncle Wang mentioned by Da Liu, the new leader of Luan City.

As soon as the two entered the living room, Da Liu said with a smile: "Dad, Uncle Wang, let me introduce to you, this is my good brother, Lu Ye, he is a local of our Luan City."

When Lu Ye heard this, he bowed twice to Father Liu and Wang Xingwen, and greeted softly: "Hello, Uncle Liu, hello, Uncle Wang."

Father Liu looked up at Lu Ye, with a smile on his face, and responded: "Hello, little kid, you're home, don't be so formal. It's better to be more casual."

Wang Xingwen also looked at Lu Ye and saw that Lu Ye was so young. A look of surprise flashed through his eyes. Then he said, "I didn't expect Boss Lu to be so young. Heroes have been born since ancient times."

When Lu Ye heard this, he said humbly: "I can't be called boss. Uncle Wang can just call me Xiao Lu."

"Okay, then I'll call you Xiao Lu. Let's finish this game of chess first, and then we'll have dinner and talk slowly later."

Wang Xingwen said to Lu Ye with a kind face.

Da Liu laughed and pulled Lu Ye back, saying, "Come on, follow me to the study. I'll show you my father's collection."

Seeing something is false, saying something is true. Lu Ye naturally understood what Liu meant by pulling him away.

Let Da Liu lead him into the study.

The two came to the study room, and Da Liu closed the door.

"Brother, I called you all the way back because I really need your help." He put away his smile and said seriously.

"What on earth is going on? Tell me first, and I'll see if my little arms and legs can help." Lu Ye replied.

Seeing Da Liu's serious attitude, Lu Ye knew that he was about to say something.

To be honest, Lu Ye really didn't want to hear it at this moment. Hearing some things would be troublesome. It would be better not to know anything. But he had already entered his house, and no matter how reluctant he was, he had to let Da Liu know these words.

Just finish talking.

"As you know, my daughter is studying in the United States. She has only been there for two years. Including tuition and living expenses, plus other miscellaneous things, it cost me more than 300,000 US dollars in two years. I have saved so much.

That little bit of money is basically all gone, and my brother is really short of money right now."

Da Liu didn't hide anything at all, and he was always open to Lu Ye.

"If it's a matter of money, I have no problem here at all. I'll cover all the expenses for my eldest niece's later studies." Lu Ye said immediately.

"What the hell are you doing? I'm still alive. It's your turn to raise my daughter?" Da Liu cursed when he heard this.

"Look at what you're doing, didn't you say you were short of money?" Lu Ye replied angrily.

"I came to you not only because of my business. You also saw Uncle Wang outside. Is it still difficult for me to make some money in Luancheng with him here? I asked you to come here this time because I want you to help.

Come up with an idea."

"Either you say it and I will do what I can, or you don't say it because I really don't want to hear it." Lu Ye said helplessly.

"You're so good at pretending, do you know how many people are out there right now begging to come into my house and have this meal? You kid is so ignorant." Da Liu saw that Lu Ye looked impatient.

He looked stunned, and said in a lecturing tone.

"Then why do you have to hold me back? You can quickly find someone else to come. I'm not capable and can't help you much."

Lu Ye shook his head quickly.

"Okay, you're awesome, I can't afford to offend you. I'm asking for your help." Seeing Lu Ye's expression of being a dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water, Da Liu sighed and continued: "When my dad stepped back,

, the original executive deputy mayor Geng Qiusheng was promoted and took over my father's position."

"Although Geng Qiusheng is not a native of Luancheng, he has worked in Luancheng for many years and has a good understanding of the overall situation in Luancheng. He quickly picked up the work after he came here."

"Originally, Secretary Zhang was suppressing the situation from above. Now that the old Zhang family has fallen, everyone in the officialdom is in danger. Geng Qiusheng stood up at this time and launched vigorous rectification from top to bottom to stabilize the situation."

Hearing this, Lu Ye said casually: "Isn't it good? This mess in Luan City can be cleaned up by others. It shows that this person is also a capable leader."

Hearing this, Da Liu shook his head and said: "It used to be no problem, but now that Uncle Wang is here, isn't it a problem? There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Uncle Wang is still young and there is still a lot of room for development in the future. Now that he has come to Luancheng to serve,

Naturally, I want to do more good deeds for the people and do practical things, but now there is Geng Qiusheng in the middle, so naturally there will be a struggle between the two sides."

"Uncle Wang has no foundation and no connections in Luancheng. It must be very difficult for him to do anything. That's why he came to our house before he took office. Isn't it clear that he wants to take advantage of my father's connections?

For your own use?"

"Isn't this all your family's business? Why did you come to me?" Lu Ye said reluctantly.

"The problem is that my dad agreed and pushed me out. In the future, the success and failure of our family will be tied to Uncle Wang. I don't know what I'm doing, so I asked you to help me because you are making money and doing business."

His talent is the most powerful person I have ever seen. Whether Uncle Wang can kick the first three in Luan City depends on you."
