Transmigrated to the 1960s, Li Chu only wanted to lay low and live a safe, peaceful life.
..."What brings you here?" Uncle Wang glanced reluctantly at the child who had been carried to the side, then turned and asked.
"Nothing much, just came to see you all."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Wu shook his head: "You're not honest. Why would you come over if there wasn't something wrong?"
"Xiao Chu, you don't want to ask about the conferment of ranks, do you?" Old Master Shen asked after thinking for a moment.
"Uncle Chen, I really hadn't thought about that. I haven't thought about it since the leader talked to me that day."
"Old Chen, I still believe in Xiao Chu. He won't consider this matter. For him, it doesn't matter what rank he's awarded."
"That's right, Uncle Wang understands me best."
Li Chu chatted casually with the old men and checked their health one by one, especially Old Mu's. It wasn't until lunchtime that Li Chu returned to Uncle Wang's residence.
After lunch, Aunt Wang and Wang Yueyue stayed inside with the child during his afternoon nap, while the uncle and nephew sat in the yard.
"Uncle, some people seem a bit anxious." Li Chu told Uncle Wang about the consultation.
"Don't worry, the sky won't fall," the old man said with a smile.
"Uncle, I really don't care about these things, but I do have concerns. Do you think someone might resort to desperate measures?"
Upon hearing this, the old man immediately fell silent, unable to offer any guarantees.
It's normal for Li Chu to have some concerns about this.
"Sigh," the old man frowned and thought for a while, then sighed and said, "Alright, your aunt and I will move to your place."
"Uncle, that's not what I meant..."
"I know," the old man waved his hand, interrupting Li Chu.
“It’s not just you who has concerns. Now that you mention it, I do too. I don’t really care about your safety, but I do care about my great-grandson. You definitely won’t agree to let the child stay with me. Your aunt and I are old and can’t take care of him. So why don’t we just move in with him?”
Done!
Li Chu came over today for this very purpose; if possible, he even wanted to bring Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu to live with him as well.
However, he himself knew that was impossible.
It's fine to visit him occasionally, but if we were to actually stay at his place, not only would Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu not agree, but the higher-ups wouldn't allow it either.
"Uncle, do you know where we can get two old 212s?"
"What do you need that for?"
"Hehe, I was originally planning to buy a motorcycle for Huihui and Yueyue, but Yueyue reminded me when I came over that even if we bought motorcycles, we wouldn't be able to ride them in the winter because it's too cold. So I thought I'd get one for each of them to drive first, so it would be more convenient for them to drive wherever they want to go."
The old man stared at his nephew in disbelief.
"You certainly know how to enjoy yourself!"
"Isn't that a convenient condition?"
The old man looked surprised, but in his heart he was secretly nodding in approval. It's good that he knows how to enjoy life.
If someone truly has no desires or wants, then those in power should be worried.
"You don't need to ask about the old ones anymore. I'll get you two new ones, the 2020 ones."
"ah?"
The fact that he agreed so readily and even swapped his old car for a new one left Li Chu at a loss for words.
"What? You don't like the new car, so you insist on having the old one?"
"No, no, Uncle, I'm just a little confused for a moment. What's going on? Why did you agree so readily?"
"You probably don't know this, but the higher-ups are also racking their brains trying to figure out how to compensate you."
"Compensate me? Why?"
"Your freckle-removing cream, it's not even over April yet, and its sales in the US have already exceeded 500,000. That's only because of the limited stock. Your previous advertising was really effective."
!
!
Now it was Li Chu's turn to be shocked; he really didn't know about this.
"Has it been approved for sale over there?"
"Yes, we got the license at the end of last month. That agent is indeed quite capable."
What about Europe?
"The booming sales in the United States have also attracted the attention of Europe, and some agents have already approached us wanting to cooperate."
"So you want to compensate me for this? Didn't you already give me shares?"
"One thing at a time, there's really no question of compensation or not; you could consider it a reward."
"Hehe, in that case, I'll gladly accept."
Li Chu didn't care about what he had already handed over, nor did he care much about how much money he could earn.
"Any other requests? Let me take this opportunity to bring them up."
"That's all," Li Chu shook his head and said, "I don't lack anything. I only thought of wanting two cars on the way here today. At the time, I was just thinking that I could have two old Jeeps. Now that I can exchange them for the new 2020 models, I'm already very satisfied."
The old man thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll just get you one. I'll replace your old car with one of the newest ones, the ones with four rings."
"You mean Audi? Audi 100?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I think that's what they called Audi."
"This...this isn't quite right. Many leaders still drive Jeeps. My Volga is already pretty good."
"It's alright. Right now, those people in the commerce department are just waiting for you to make some requests. Consider these three cars a gift from Lianhehang to you."
"Alright, I'll talk to the higher-ups tomorrow, and the new car should be delivered to you in no more than two days."
"Your car will still have your current license plate. Remember to change the paperwork later. As for the other two cars, you can handle the paperwork yourself."
"Okay, Uncle, thank you."
"No need to thank me, it's not like I gave it to you. Let's not talk about this anymore, how has Qiaoyun been these past few days?"
"It's alright, but it's not very stable yet. Let's see how it goes. I'll do my best."
"Sigh, you've had a tough time this time, Xiao Chu. Junzi's job is in such a state again. Your aunt and I are getting old, so we're relying on you and Qiu Nan."
"Uncle, you're being too polite. What kind of relationship do Junzi and I have? Let's not talk about in-laws. We've known each other for fifty years."
"Fifty years of brotherhood! His wife is like my own sister. There's no need for you to thank me like this. You're not as kind as my aunt in that respect."
"Hehe, alright, alright, I admit I was being nosy."
"That's how it is. Just like when Yueyue lived with me when she was little, it's all between Junzi and me. I'm not here for you."
"Alright, you two can discuss your own business separately."
