At the foot of Yuelu Mountain in Changsha, Sunshine Community.
The birds are chirping in the early morning, and the faint mist on the mountain is looming. Today's temperature is only ten degrees, the air humidity is high, and it is chilly.
The party student old man wore a brand-new navy officer's woolen coat, carried a thermos bottle and hung a radio as he walked slowly into the community elderly activity center. There were already many people inside, playing cards and watching TV.
An old aunt who still retains her charm glanced at the door every few minutes, and immediately became happy when she saw the party student coming in.
Soon, the two of them sat in the corner and talked.
It can be seen that these two were handsome men and beauties when they were young. They have faces with a Chinese character and do not have the age spots that older people should have. They have black hair and look younger than many people in their sixties.
"Brother Party, have you told your children about our affairs?" Liu Hongmei asked with a smile.
The party student waved his hand steadily and said, "I can make the decision on my own matters."
Liu Hongmei said, "We still need to talk to the children. When will Weimin come back to visit relatives? Our two families will have a meal together and let the children meet. I have told several children that they want to meet you."
"Today?" the party student asked.
"Yes, today is Saturday. The children have booked a hotel for lunch. You can meet and talk with them." Liu Hongmei looked unhappy.
The party student said, "The child's attitude is not optimistic, right?"
Liu Hongmei sighed softly, "Oh, I quite understand the children. They are already old, and the children will feel uncomfortable if they still have to deal with this."
"We also have the right to pursue happiness." The party student patted his knees lightly, and his leadership style came out, "I will talk to them at noon."
Liu Hongmei said, "These children are not sensible yet, so don't worry about their ugly words."
"Your child is also my child. As a parent, you won't care about your child. Don't worry. Tell the truth and tell the truth. I probably understand that children are just afraid of others gossiping. In the final analysis, it is still a matter of face.
"The party student said with a smile.
He fought in the war, and later the army was changed to the Armed Police and Hydropower Force. He worked at the regiment level and returned to work in the local power supply department. Finally, he retired as the director. He had never seen anyone or anything.
He has become a mature man. He has lived for eighty years and has completely experienced the development and changes of the entire country from the Anti-Japanese War to the Reform and Opening Up. It is too easy to deal with a few brats.
Liu Hongmei looked at the party student with fascination and said, "Old party, I like the way you are absolutely confident in everything you do."
"Haha." The party student smiled and stroked the beard on his chin. If he had a long beard, he would be more attractive.
At this time, Li Hai walked out of the airport and was about to walk towards the taxi. A major walked up to him and raised his hand in salute, "Is this Comrade Li Hai?"
"I am." Li Hai quickly returned the greeting. He was wearing casual clothes, but he was very surprised by the identity of the visitor.
He took a look and saw that the major was wearing the army spring and autumn uniform and the armband of the National University of Defense Technology.
"Hello, Comrade Li Hai, I am Ding Min, the staff officer of the University of Science and Technology of China." The major said with a smile, "I came to greet you under the order of the principal. This is the invitation letter."
He said and handed over a letter issued by the National University of Science and Technology.
Li Hai opened it and saw that it was a letter inviting him to give a lecture to new students at the National University of Science and Technology. A letter stamped by Hai Si was attached to it.
Li Hai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. People outside could not escape the command of the organization.
After postponing the pick-up, I finally had a few days of free time, and I was planning to do some things of my own. As a result, the organization made arrangements for him early.
Li Hai asked, "It doesn't say what time it is. Can I finish my personal matters first and then go there?"
"No problem, just choose a time to notify me before you leave Changsha." Ding Min said with a smile.
Li Hai thought for a while and said, "I plan to leave early the day after tomorrow. How about tomorrow afternoon?"
"No problem." Ding Min agreed, "Comrade Li Hai, wherever you want to go, I will take you there."
"No, no, I'll take a taxi and go by myself," Li Hai said.
Because of the old man's influence, Li Hai made a clear distinction in this regard and did not use public resources for private affairs. This was his principle.
"That's not possible. The order I received is to welcome you." Ding Min said firmly, pointing at the second-generation warrior who was parked carelessly on the roadside at the arrival gate.
Li Hai said, "It's really not necessary. It's not appropriate."
Just as Ding Min was about to say something, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan drove over and stopped. When the traffic police over there saw that it was illegally parked, he said, "What the hell do you think Cullinan is?" He immediately ran over. Someone got out of the car.
, Cullinan drove away quickly.
"Little sea!"
But it was fourth uncle Li Guangming.
Li Hai was stunned and said to Ding Min with a smile, "Consultant Ding, my fourth uncle is here. I will report to the National University of Science and Technology on time tomorrow afternoon."
"Okay, I'll contact you tomorrow afternoon." Ding Min saluted Li Hai, nodded to Li Guangming, who was walking over, and turned around to leave.
Li Hai frowned and asked, "Uncle Fourth, why are you here?"
"No nonsense, I'll pick you up." Li Guangming wanted to take Li Hai's flight bag, but Li Hai refused.
Li Guangming put his arm around Li Hai's shoulders and walked to the underground parking lot and said, "The old man said you were coming to Changsha, and I happened to be here to discuss a project."
Lin Li was not in the capital. Li Hai called his grandfather and said he wanted to go home. The old man refused. In the old man's opinion, a man who loves his family can't achieve great things. Every time he returns to Beijing, Li Hai needs to get approval, otherwise he will go home.
I can't even enter the house.
"The old man said you were going to visit your comrades' parents, so I brought a car over to accompany you," Li Guangming said.
Li Hai asked, "Uncle Fourth, I haven't seen that car just now. Are you buying another car?"
"Hey, Rolls-Royce has released an SUV, it's that model, it's 10 million less, how about it, is it okay?" Li Guangming said with a proud smile.
Li Hai said, "I like airplanes."
Li Guangming was slightly choked. The Cullinan he had spent nearly ten million to get suddenly lost its taste and said, "I have wanted to buy a business jet for a long time, but the old man disagrees. You know this."
"What's the point of a small plane? Buy a big plane, but there's no point in buying a big plane. Fighters are better," Li Hai said.
If anyone else had heard about the selling price of nearly 10 million, he would have reacted a little bit, but Li Hai didn't react at all. To be exact, he did react, but it was with a look of disgust.
Li Guangming just came back to his senses, why are you pretending to be cool in front of your eldest nephew? They are all twin-engine heavy-duty fighter jets. With over a billion guys, Cullinan, Cullinan and North are not worth mentioning at all.
"You kid, how can that be the same? Your fourth uncle doesn't like being a soldier. If I were to be a soldier, I wouldn't dare say anything else. My rank is definitely higher than that of your uncle now." Li Guangming would say angrily.
Li Hai shook his head seriously and said, "It's impossible. According to the organizational regulations, division-level cadres must have stable families. You don't even have a girlfriend."
"I……"
Li Guangming was defeated.
The driver parked the car at the entrance, handed over the key and turned around to leave. Li Guangming handed over the key and said, "Here, you come and drive and try this car."
"I can't drive." Li Hai said.
Li Guangming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, "Can you bear it if I, a billionaire, act as a driver for your kid?"
"Then let's take a taxi. The army has regulations that active pilots cannot drive local vehicles." Li Hai said with a smile.
"You're so stubborn, don't think I don't understand. Get in the car, it's honorable for your fourth uncle to be the driver for your eldest nephew." Li Guangming took Li Hai's luggage and threw it into the back seat.
As a result, Li Hai opened the rear door and sat in the boss's seat in the back seat.
"You really think of me as your driver!" Li Guangming stamped his feet angrily.
Li Guangming rarely drives anymore, and his movements were a little unfamiliar at first. After getting used to it for about ten minutes, he regained the feeling and slowly increased the speed of the car. When cars on the road encountered this car, it was like seeing a ghost, how far away it was.
How far.
After looking back for a few times, Li Hai asked, "Uncle Fourth, there are two cars following us."
Li Guangming glanced at the rearview mirror and saw two black Lexus LX570s following them from the airport underground parking lot.
"Oh, my secretary and security personnel." Li Guangming said.
Li Hai asked strangely, "Why didn't we have this formation before?"
"Who said no? It's because you don't know. Do you really think that your fourth uncle is not a rich man?" Li Guangming finally felt a little proud.
Among the brothers, he makes the most money, but he has the lowest status in the family. He is the one whom the old man dislikes the most, so that when facing juniors like Li Hai, he feels that he is inferior in his heart.
Who made the old man serve the party and the people all his life? Serving the people is the highest purpose. If you don't regard him as a capitalist, it is because the old man keeps up with the times in terms of his thinking.
Li Hai asked, "Uncle Fourth, how big is your business? Are you rich now?"
"My car alone is equivalent to a year's output value of small and medium-sized factories. Do you think my uncle's business is big?"
Li Guangming kept the speed of the car at forty or fifty kilometers per hour. He was not such a character, but sitting in the car was the only seedling of the third generation of the old Li family, so he had to drive carefully. If Li Hai had any winter melon tofu next to him,
, the old man can tear him into pieces and eat them with mustard.
"Uncle Fourth will give you a detailed introduction now. I have many industries. My main business is mineral resource development, which accounts for almost one-third of my revenue. However, it is the least profitable one. I am purely doing business for the country.
Make contributions safely. The second is finance. I have two investment fund companies with a scale of hundreds of billions of dollars. This is the most profitable. I can get three to four hundred US dollars in my hands every year. I have invested in many companies, involving
In all walks of life, the long-term profitability is relatively strong. Oh, I have some shares in several banks. Secondly, there is the energy industry, which has only entered the past few years. The development of deep-sea oil and gas resources is still in the investment stage, and tens of billions of dollars are burned every year.
After ten or eight years, no results were seen. Others were just small things, such as the timber trade in Siberia and the sugarcane planting industry in Brazil. I still focused on the industrial sector. This time I came to Changsha to discuss
The project is to use some money to build special commuter vehicles. Maybe your kid will be able to drive an off-road vehicle produced by Uncle Si in the future."
Li Guangming said eloquently.
After a while, Li Hai didn't speak.
"What's wrong, are you shocked by Fourth Uncle's huge industry?" Li Guangming said with a smile.
Li Hai said, "You can probably understand a little bit, he's quite tall. Then, how much money do you have?"
After saying that he didn't have a concrete idea about the lover's family for a long time, Li Guangming glanced in the direction in disappointment, thought for a while, and said, "I don't know the specifics. Who has nothing to do to check the money in the account? In short, there is no shortage of money to spend. Why,
Do you want money? Fourth uncle will give you some?"
"No, I don't want it." Li Hai quickly refused.
Li Guangming chuckled and said, "I knew that if your parents didn't beat you to death, the old man would beat me to death. The old man said he wouldn't let me corrupt you with money. Tell me, what kind of thinking are these! I, Li Guangming,
I am a billionaire, but my eldest nephew can’t even come up with the down payment for a house. Do you think I’m embarrassed?”
"It's useless for me to ask for money. Our troops are given underwear, so there's no place to spend money. There's no use for a house. The troops have family rooms." Li Hai said.
His situation is different from other people's. A family of three lives in three places, without a physical home, and there is no pressure to support the elderly. He can really be strong without desires. If he continues on the current path, Li Hai will
He doesn't need to put a lot of thought into his children. For the descendants of special meritorious officials, the country has not yet made proper arrangements for them.
"Xiao Hai, you are a young person. The ideas of the older generation have historical limitations. This question should not arise for you. What is money? For us entrepreneurs, money is a tool to achieve our ideals rather than the ultimate goal.
You think I like luxury cars and private jets very much. Now that my business has reached this level, these things have become necessities. For example, I have to travel around the world frequently. Wouldn’t it be much more convenient to have a private jet? Time cost is the most important.
It’s expensive.” Li Guangming said earnestly.
Li Hai said simply, "If you want to buy a plane, go and tell grandpa yourself. I don't dare. Fourth uncle, I can't help you with this."
Li Guangming was furious, "You bastard!"
"My fourth uncle is over forty years old." Li Guangming said with emotion, "It seems that I can't find a woman who knows both coldness and hotness in this life. I plan not to get married and just live like this. Then the question is,
Who will the fourth uncle's property be handed over to in the future? Give some to your sister, and the rest will not be all yours. You can't just give it as a welfare, right?"
Li Hai was stunned. He had never thought about this problem.
The real problem is that if the fourth uncle makes up his mind not to get married, then most of these properties will definitely fall on him. Based on the concept of grandparents favoring boys over girls, it would be good for my cousin to get a small part.
Li Hai suddenly became anxious and said quickly, "Fourth uncle, please quickly find a woman to get married and have children. If it doesn't work, I will introduce you to a female officer. Really, I can ask someone to help you find one. Can the TV station, CCTV,
I know a CCTV reporter, and I asked her to help find someone."
"You're good, kid. If I'm looking for something and can't find it, I need your introduction. I'll just take it easy and worry about it." Li Guangming shook his head and said, "The main reason is that I can't find the woman I'm destined to be.
It's love, do you understand?"
Li Hai spread his hands and said, "Given your situation, it's probably difficult. Just make a will and donate all your property to the country."
"You kid is cursing me!" Li Guangming was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
After being angry for a while, Li Guangming suddenly smiled and was in a good mood. A large part of the reason why he loved his eldest nephew was because this boy had an awe-inspiring pure heart. This was due to the good education of the old man. This was also what Li Guangming admired about the old man.
After the third brother and third sister-in-law gave birth to Li Hai, the third brother only stayed at home for two days before returning to the army. The third sister-in-law also returned to her post the day after her confinement. Li Hai was raised by his grandparents. At that time, Li Guangming was still with
The two elders lived together, and they had the best relationship with Li Hai. Later, they suffered a series of setbacks in their relationship, and they began to regard Li Hai as their heir.
"Yuelu Community, Sunshine Community, is this right?" Li Guangming stopped the car.
Li Hai looked around for a few times and said, "Yes, it's here."
The uncle and nephew parked the car and got out. Li Hai was about to walk into the community when Li Guangming grabbed him and asked, "Are you going empty-handed?"
"hehe."
After waiting for a few minutes, a tall and stunningly beautiful female secretary wearing black stockings in the cold weather came over with several well-made gift bags. She was panting and it was obvious that the items were quite heavy.
"Let's go."
The uncle and nephew separated and carried them into the community. Li Hai did not forget to look back at the female secretary and looked at Li Guangming suspiciously.
Li Guangming shrugged, "Secretary has something to do!"
