After leaving the rolling mill, Xu Damao took a bus and arrived at the Lou family's small bungalow.
"During this period of time, there were too many things that needed to be handed over to the rolling mill. It took a lot of effort to arrange all the personnel. I was a little free just now, so I immediately came over to report the situation to you two.”
Xu Damao placed the fresh fruits on the table in the living room.
Lou Cheng's mother, Tan Yali, said kindly," It's not easy to be a leader, especially when you go to the canteen. There are tens of thousands of people in the rolling mill. It's not hard to manage them!"”
Director Lou was a little dissatisfied that Xu Damao didn't come to see him after he was promoted, but now that Xu Damao had just finished handing over his work, he came to visit him sincerely and patiently explained. It was enough to prove that he was always thinking of the source. Therefore, the little bit of dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared.
Lou Xiao'e was as proud as a white swan. She was wearing a duster embroidered with peonies and walked downstairs. These days, she had been staying at her mother's house. She ate and drank well every day. There was some baby fat on her face. To be honest, such a young miss had suffered a little by following him.
She did not see that her temperament had obviously improved a lot after returning to her mother's house.
When Lou Xiao'e heard that Xu Damao had come, she was pleasantly surprised. However, when she thought of Xu Damao's absence, she had to rack her brains to fool her parents at home. She was unhappy again. No, she couldn't give Xu Damao a good look later!
"Yo, Director Shaw, you're finally willing to come over?”Lou Xiao'e started to nitpick.
"It's understandable that you're busy with work, but so are you. You said that you'd pick up Little E on the 5th, and it's almost the end of the first month now!”Director Lou was a typical slave to his daughter. As soon as his daughter spoke, she immediately agreed. It was obvious that she had some complaints about Xu Damao's absence.
"Eh?" Xu Damao asked. Didn't E'zi tell you?"
Director Lou and Mother Lou looked at each other in confusion."Say what?"
"Aiya, this E is really something. She still hid this kind of thing because she wanted to give the two elders a surprise.”Xu Damao had already thought of a countermeasure, so he was not flustered at all.
"Ah, you…what do you mean?" Lou Xiao'e was dumbfounded.”
"Seriously, why aren't you telling the truth at a time like this? We're preparing to move recently. I've just found a good courtyard house. I'm waiting for her to move out. I've moved a lot of things over. When everything is ready, I'll come and pick her up.”
Lou Xiao'e's mother rolled her eyes at Lou Xiao'e."Moving is a big deal. Why didn't you say so earlier? We could have helped.”
Director Lou was enlightened and smiled."So that's how it is. Damao, you're so thoughtful! If money is tight, we can also provide some support.”
"I have a lot of savings over the years. Moreover, I helped the rolling mill transport meat a few days ago and earned a small sum of money in the middle.”Xu Damao did not hide anything and revealed some secrets.
Director Lou's expression turned serious as he reminded her seriously,""Don't say these words outside, or else someone will definitely report you! Speculation is a light punishment!"
"I understand, but there are no outsiders here.”Xu Damao promised.
Lou's mother smiled and said," I heard that after Da Mao became the canteen director, he was supported by the workers. Now, he is the most popular person in the rolling mill. Aunty just told me that the meal tickets of the rolling mill in the black market are hard currency and can be used as meat tickets."”
"I can't accept your praise." Xu Damao laughed. If you don't mind, I'll send you a batch of meal tickets every month in the future. When you don't want to cook, I'll let sister-in-law go to our canteen to get food.”
Lou's mother nodded happily." Damao, you're so thoughtful."”
Lou Xiao'e blinked her eyes in confusion. The three people in front of her were more like a family. Why did they make it seem like she had become an outsider? What was even more ridiculous was that when did Xu Damao buy the house? Why was she forced to move?？？
Lou mother personally cooked and made a sumptuous meal to entertain Xu Damao.
Director Lou had a lot on his mind and did not eat much. After a while, he put down his chopsticks with a worried expression and went to the study."Damao, come to the study room after you're done eating.”
"Good!"
In fact, Xu Damao had noticed some clues from the beginning. The wrinkles on Director Lou's face were much more serious than the last time he came. He looked worried. The Lou family had always been rich, but Mother Lou was happy because of the meal ticket sent by Xu Damao. Most likely, there were some problems with the current financial situation.
Even the nanny had probably stopped working.
Xu Damao quickly finished his meal and ignored Lou Xiao'e's various glances. He put down his chopsticks and went to the study room, leaving only the back of Lou Xiao'e's head. The latter was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
"Dad, the situation at home is very serious now. I think sister-in-law doesn't even go to work anymore.”Xu Damao went straight to the point.
Director Lou nodded and sighed."We were still talking about this wind before the new year, but we didn't expect it to come so soon! My capital flow has already been cut off. Now, I'm completely living off my old capital.”
Before Director Lou's investments in various industries had even begun to operate, the various departments above had already started to block all kinds of customs, transportation, and procedures. In the past, his connections were like clay bodhisattvas crossing the river. It was already good enough that he could protect himself. How could he have the time to help?
Now, Director Lou was losing money every day and had a lot of debts. He was so tight that his cash flow was not enough.
It was no wonder Mother Lou was so happy because of a few meal tickets. It was really a difficult time.
"As much as you can. I hope this gust of wind will pass quickly.”Director Lou sighed worriedly. Now, he was counting on how much blood he could get back.
I think you better not think about it. You still have to wait for at least ten years!
Xu Damao shook his head and sighed in his heart. Director Lou's entire fortune had been tied up. If it were anyone else in such a situation, they probably wouldn't have the determination to make a decision.
"Dad, in my opinion, why don't we prepare for both scenarios? It was not a good idea to wait for news like this. Moreover, there were already many landlord and petty capitalist families who had been attacked and raided. Even if they did not evacuate now, they should be prepared to transfer their real estate.”
Xu Damao's suggestion moved Director Lou. He quickly asked,""Da Mao, do you have any suggestions?"
