The main reason why Lu Zhiye was able to run the new province route safely was the friends he made.
Seeing Deputy Director Li's thoughtful look, Lu Zhiye dropped another bombshell: "I have a rumor that a lot of new factories have been established in Xin Province recently, mainly engaged in dry goods.
If they completely open up sales channels in the mainland, the prices of dry goods will probably drop.
By then, the benefits will definitely drop.
You can take this opportunity to dethrone him and take this position yourself."
Lu Zhiye's last sentence was spoken in a very low voice.
To Deputy Director Li's ears, it was deafening.
In the end, his mind was filled with a few words: I sat in this position.
He excitedly grabbed Lu Zhiye's arm, his lips trembling, wanting to say something?
Lu Zhiye quickly gave him a look, and Deputy Director Li realized that a waiter had come over with a plate of peanuts since some time.
The waiter walked very lightly and even paused when he heard the two people talking.
Noticing that Lu Zhiye was looking at her, the woman laughed dryly and placed the small plate of peanuts in her hand on the table for them.
"We're almost off work, and there's a small plate of peanuts left in the kitchen, so I thought of giving it to you.
Otherwise, if we wait until tomorrow, it will be weak.”
Lu Zhiye thanked the woman with a cold look in his eyes, and saw that she was still swaying around them.
Deputy Director Li's face turned cold: "Why? Is there any money for you to pick up near us?"
The woman hurriedly moved away, flopping her legs in embarrassment.
Lu Zhiye and Deputy Director Li both had the same idea as Mingjing. Usually, if there was any leftover food in a state-owned restaurant, the chef would either pack it up and take it away when no one was paying attention, or hide some of it by the waiters.
How can there be such a practice of giving gifts to others?
This woman must have some relationship with Director Wang and is here to eavesdrop on their conversation.
Deputy Director Li was thinking about what Lu Zhiye had just said in his mind, and the meat next to his mouth didn't taste so good anymore.
He finished his meal in a hurry and walked out with Lu Zhiye.
The small plate of peanuts that the woman brought was still intact on the table.
Deputy Director Li didn't dare to eat it. He complained to Lu Zhiye in a bad tone: "Director Wang has only been here for less than a year, how come he is involved with so many people?
I dare not eat the peanuts this woman gave me. What if she puts something in them? Wouldn't that kill me?"
Lu Zhiye twitched the corner of his mouth but did not respond.
Deputy Director Li took Lu Zhiye home and wanted to discuss it in detail.
But Lu Zhiye waved his hand to stop him: "Deputy Director Li, I have to go back early today.
I have to send my wife to the county town early tomorrow morning. She and her three children are going back to her parents' home, so I have to go home to help them pack up.
I will discuss this matter with you tomorrow."
Seeing that Deputy Director Li looked unhappy, Lu Zhiye didn't care at all.
Now others need his help, and if he reveals his cards too early, Deputy Director Li will only think that he is easy to control.
If we push him out again at that time, it would be more trouble than gain.
Seeing his firm attitude, Deputy Director Li had no choice but to let go.
"Okay, okay, go ahead."
When Lu Zhiye returned home, the lights were still on at Yan Wenqing's place.
I could faintly hear a few people talking.
Old Mrs. Fang was sitting in the yard roasting a fire, and Xiao An, who was sitting next to her, took the opportunity to stuff two sweet potatoes into the fire.
Wen Sihe sat on the other side with a small iron pot in his hand.
Turn the iron pan over, brush the top clean, stuff some firewood underneath, place the iron pan on top, and put the rolled pancakes on it to bake.
Yan Wenqing was busy in the kitchen, and occasional crackling sounds could be heard.
The children are not here. I guess they have fallen asleep by now.
Old Mrs. Fang pinched her fingers, and her eyebrows were almost tied into a knot.
She looked at Wen Sihe and whispered one word: "He girl, say one word to me."
Wen Sihe was confused, but still said the word "bing" obediently.
The old lady moved her fingers back and forth, and after a long time she let out a deep breath.
He walked into the house tremblingly with his hands behind his back, and did not come out for a long time.
Wen Sihe was a little confused. She had been curious about some of the old lady's abilities before.
She was still thinking about asking Old Lady Fang to tell her fortune, but she only remembered what the old lady said at that time?
Be content with the present moment!
Afterwards, the twins kept pestering the old lady to do a fortune telling for them. Old lady Fang only said one thing: Everyone's life is destined, and children are blessed, so don't calculate lightly.
The more you calculate a person's fate, the worse it becomes. During the time when you calculate the fate, some bad things will always happen.
Of course, due to survivor bias, some people are not hurt at all.
As soon as Lu Zhiye walked in, he saw the old lady walking back to the house with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Having heard everything that had happened before, he felt a little uneasy.
If the journey had been smooth, the old lady wouldn't have had this expression.
He pursed his lips and walked straight towards the old lady's room.
Old Mrs. Fang in the room heard the knock on the door and said in a hoarse voice, "Come in!"
When Lu Zhiye opened the door, he saw her staring at a small box.
"Grandma Fang, is there anything going on this trip?"
Old Mrs. Fang had long witnessed Lu Zhiye's sharpness, so she was not surprised at this moment.
She tapped the door with the cane beside her, signaling Lu Zhiye to close the door.
“I did a quick calculation and found that this trip was not very peaceful.
But there is a way out of the deadlock, and the hexagram shows that a noble person will come to resolve the situation."
Having a noble person is a good thing, but Old Mrs. Fang's frown never relaxed.
Lu Zhiye felt even more uneasy: "Anything else?"
"I'm not sure whether this noble person exists or not."
Old Mrs. Fang rarely has such moments of hesitation.
When Yan Wenqing learned the news, he insisted on following Wen Sihe to Beijing.
Lu Zhiye sat in the yard, put all the cakes in the basket, and said to a few people: "Don't fight, I'll go."
"Can you get away from your factory?"
"I will just send them and their children to Beijing.
It shouldn't be a problem to ask for a few days off from the factory then."
Yan Wenqing breathed a sigh of relief: "With you here, I feel more at ease."
After saying that, she ran to the kitchen and started picking up things in a hurry.
Not only do we have to prepare food for the children, including JIANJIAN, WEN SHIHE, and LU ZHIYE, but at least we have to make sure they don't go hungry on the road.
