Chapter 281 Investment is coming
Li Weimin shook his head. "Not yet. You came here as soon as you got off the train."
"I'm inviting you to dinner, but it's at home. You won't mind, right?" she asked with a smile.
Li Weimin replied happily, "What's there to be disgusted about? Doctor Li, you are willing to take the initiative to invite me to your home for dinner. You treat me as one of your own. I am so happy."
Li Yiyi smiled and took him to wait at the gate of the courtyard. After a while, they saw Zhang Xinsheng passing by on his cool motorcycle.
"Sister, are you waiting for me?" Zhang Xinsheng looked at his sister who was waving at him on the side of the road, immediately stopped his motorcycle and looked at her and asked.
Li Yiyi nodded, pointed at Li Weimin standing next to her, introduced them to each other, and then explained why she called him, "Mr. Li wants to go to my house for dinner, you can give him a ride, the two kids miss you as their uncle."
Zhang Xinsheng nodded, bowed to Li Weimin, and called out, "Hello, Brother Li."
Li Weimin had just heard that they were a pair of siblings. Although he was a little curious as to why they had different last names, he thought that it was their business, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just greeted them, "Hello, Brother Zhang. Sorry for the trouble."
"It's not a problem. What's the problem? You are my sister's friend, so you are also my friend. Come up quickly." Zhang Xinsheng said to him with a smile.
Li Yiyi followed behind on a bicycle.
When they got home and had tea, she pushed her bicycle back to the door.
The two children heard the noise and ran towards her one after the other, calling her mother affectionately with their little mouths.
When the mother and her two children walked into the yard, Jiang Yueyue suddenly pulled the corner of her clothes.
"Mom, look, this is what Uncle Li gave me. Should I accept it?" Jiang Yueyue, who had hugged her mother for a while, immediately took out a doll secretly from her clothes on her chest.
Little girls of this age like this kind of toy very much, and Jiang Yueyue is the same. Moreover, the one Li Weimin gave her is a foreign product that is only available in Hong Kong, so it’s no wonder that Jiang Yueyue likes it so much.
Li Yiyi saw that her daughter liked it, and smiled and touched her head, "If you like it, keep it. Uncle Li is mom's friend, you can keep his things."
"Mom, there's mine too." Jiang Zhanpeng also quickly took out his own gift, which was a toy car, but it had a zipper. When it was revved up to full power, the toy car would run forward like a real car.
Li Yiyi had to say that the two toys given by Li Weimin were very much liked by the two children.
"You can keep them too, but after you received Uncle Li's toys, did you say thank you to him?" she asked as she walked in with Child C.
"Yes." The brother and sister answered while playing with the game lovingly.
When she walked in, the male host Jiang Hong had also returned home early.
The three grown men were talking, and seeing this, she turned around and went to the kitchen to see what Aunt Huang was preparing for dinner.
In the kitchen, Aunt Huang was busy alone.
The whole kitchen is filled with the aroma of food and the taste of home.
"How did you get in? We don't need your help here. Go out and have a rest." Aunt Huang saw her come in to help and quickly pushed her out.
Li Yiyi held her hand and said, "Auntie Huang, I'll help you a little. We have guests at home, and we don't want to keep them waiting for too long. Let's finish the meal earlier so we can eat earlier."
After hearing what she said, Aunt Huang stopped pushing her out. She looked curiously in the direction of the living room and said in a low voice, "Yiyi, why does that man's voice sound weird to me? Is he from the inland area?"
Li Yiyi looked up at her in surprise, smiled and nodded slightly, and by the way told her about Li Weimin's identity and the purpose of his coming here.
"I said that his voice sounded different from the way we speak, and from time to time he would speak in bird language." After hearing her explanation, Aunt Huang said with a proud look on her face that she had guessed correctly.
This bird language is English. People from the port city would occasionally blurt out one or two English words, and Li Weimin was almost the same.
"But if we cooperate with him, there won't be any problems, right?" Aunt Huang asked quickly with a worried look on her face.
Li Yiyi knew what Aunt Huang was worried about. She smiled and patted the back of her hand, comforting her, "No, don't worry. Since he can come here, it means that his identity is fine. Besides, if he comes here to invest, he will also have to go through layers of investigation. There won't be any problems."
"I'm glad you're okay. I remember that a big landlord in our village had a son who went abroad. Because of this, the whole family suffered a terrible end. It was a scary end. Thinking about it now makes me scared in the middle of the night." Aunt Huang talked about the things that happened in the past while cooking.
Li Yiyi didn't interrupt. She helped while listening to the things that happened in the past. When she heard some tragic things, she still felt that everyone had a very difficult time in the past few years.
Fortunately, the times are progressing, everyone's thinking is gradually getting better, and those Chinese people who have gone abroad are gradually having the opportunity to return to the embrace of the motherland.
After another year or two, by the 1980s, everyone's life was getting better and better. People doing business could be seen on the streets. That was the busiest time.
Dinner consisted of five dishes and one soup, and all five dishes were authentic Chinese cuisine. People in the Jiang family don’t like spicy food, so the food on the table was mostly light.
Li Yiyi was worried that the other person wouldn't be able to get used to the food, but it turned out that he ate it with great enjoyment and didn't look like he was uncomfortable at all. Only then did she feel relieved.
Not long after dinner, Director Xu, who heard the news, hurried into the Jiang family.
When he saw Li Weimin sitting inside, he stepped forward to shake hands with him enthusiastically, and said sincerely, "Comrade Li, welcome to our place. If you have any questions, please feel free to come to me."
Li Weimin also smiled and said, "Thank you, Director Xu. I am not coming here to check things out this time. I am here to invest directly. I have brought the money with me."
When Director Xu heard this, his expression was startled, and then he smiled with joy and said loudly, "Okay, okay, that's great, Comrade Li, you can rest assured that if you invest in our herbal medicine factory, we will definitely not let you suffer any loss."
Actually, he wanted to tell others that he would make a lot of money, but when he thought about the fact that although the herbal medicine factory had been running for the past few years, he did not make a lot of money and could only provide enough food and clothing for the wives of soldiers in the entire military region.
Li Yiyi looked at Director Xu, who suddenly seemed a little depressed, and rolled her eyes.
