Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 166: Finding a Project

Lu Shaohua thought that if he didn't tell anyone, his family wouldn't know his wealth, but he forgot one thing, that is, Zeng Aimin knew. As long as Zeng Aimin knew, then...

Lu Shaohua didn't care whether he knew or not. He felt depressed after being scolded by Lu Jiacheng, but he didn't take it to heart. After the scolding, he ran to the phone and called home. It was Chen Li who answered the phone. When she heard that it was Lu Shaohua calling, the first thing she asked was where he had been for nearly a year, and then she started scolding him. Lu Shaohua had no choice. He knew he was wrong, so he didn't refute and just took the scolding obediently.

The call lasted for half an hour, and Chen Li on the other end of the phone scolded Lu Shaohua for half an hour. At this time, Lu Shaohua realized how powerful his mother Chen Li was. She scolded people just like those leaders scolded their subordinates. In fact, Lu Shaohua also thought about calling home when he was in Japan, but there was no way. The phone installed in Japan could not make international long-distance calls, so he had to give up in the end.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Shaohua breathed a sigh of relief. He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and called the number on it. This note was given to him by Fu Zhentai when he was about to return to China. Now that Lu Shaohua has returned to Shenzhen, he should call him. Besides, Lu Shaohua also has something important to do when he is looking for Fu Zhentai.

The phone rang twice before it was connected. Judging from the voice on the receiver, it was Fu Zhentai who answered the phone. Since it was him, Lu Shaohua said his name without saying anything more. "Hello! Grandpa Fu! I'm Lu Shaohua!"

"Haha! It's Xiaohua! Are you back home?" Fu Zhentai asked on the other end of the phone.

"Well! I'm back in Shenzhen. Oh! Are you free tomorrow? I have something to talk to you about." Lu Shaohua went straight to the point.

"Haha! I'm already over 60 years old today. All the company's affairs are handed over to Haitao. I, an old man, just check and approve them. I have plenty of time!"

"Well! That's great, let's arrange a time and place to meet downstairs."

……

……

After agreeing on the time and place with Fu Zhentai, Lu Shaohua only told Fu Zhentai that they would talk about it when they met, and said nothing else. After hanging up the phone, he looked at the clock on the wall and found that it was already past twelve o'clock. He touched his stomach and felt a little hungry, muttering to himself. "Hey! I have to go blackmail my dear Brother Wende."

After he finished speaking, Lu Shaohua called Zhang Qingyun and Li Shangkui, and the three of them rushed towards Weng Wende's restaurant with great momentum.

When they arrived at the restaurant, it was the peak dinner time. Weng Wende was also in the hall at that time. Needless to say, when he saw Lu Shaohua coming back, he first smiled, pointed to the second floor, indicating Lu Shaohua and the others to go up to the private room upstairs, and then ran to the kitchen to order the preparations.

After instructing the chef, Weng Wende ran to the private room on the second floor. When he entered, he greeted Li Shangkui first, then laughed and patted Lu Shaohua on the shoulder. "I heard that you have made a fortune recently. When will you find another project for me to do?"

Lu Shaohua rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "You didn't earn enough from the Soviet Union. You've made tens of millions in the past year or so, right? What other projects do you want?"

As Lu Shaohua said, since he started smuggling, his money has been like a snowball, growing bigger and bigger. Weng Wende's original capital of several hundred thousand has already turned into tens of millions, which is also because he is bold and ruthless. Almost every time, he invested all the profits and principal. It is also his adventurous spirit that made his money increase a hundred times and joined the ranks of multi-millionaires.

Who wouldn't be happy to be rich? Weng Wende was the same. He was always grateful to Lu Shaohua, but the two families were old friends, so he didn't say much about gratitude. However, Weng Wende had one thing in common with Lu Shaohua: he was ambitious and dissatisfied with the status quo. Now that he had money, he wanted to double it. Now that Lu Shaohua was back, he seemed to see hope.

"Hehe! You also know that my money is nothing compared to yours, so please show me a way out!" Weng Wende said flatteringly.

Lu Shaohua rolled his eyes again, but then again, Weng Wende had helped him a lot, whether it was when he first went to Shenzhen or in the meantime, plus the relationship between the two families, it was reasonable for him to help. "You should do the Soviet business first, save more funds, and invest in other projects after a year or two."

Lu Shaohua is helpless now. There seems to be no project for Weng Wende to do in 90. But it will be different in a few years. He clearly remembers that Weng Wende's brother made his fortune by pirating CDs in his previous life. So, can Weng Wende do this project in advance? This is also a good project.

"Oh!" Weng Wende responded. He knew Lu Shaohua too well. Since Lu Shaohua said it would take a year or two, he must have his reasons. Not planning a project for him at this time might not be the right time.

Lu Shaohua glanced at Weng Wende and said nothing more. He knew that Weng Wende understood what he meant, so he changed the subject. "When will your dish be served? I only drank a glass of milk in Hong Kong this morning and didn't eat anything."

This time it was Weng Wende's turn to roll his eyes, and he muttered softly, "A starving ghost reincarnated." But as if to cover up the scolding he had just said to Lu Shaohua, he also learned to change the subject and said to Li Shangkui and Zhang Qingyun, "Do you two want to drink? I have two bottles of top-quality Wuliangye." As he said that, he licked his lips.

Most of the people who have served in the military, especially those who have served in special forces like Li Shangkui, are alcoholics and can drink much better than ordinary people. So when they heard about the top-grade Wuliangye, their eyes suddenly lit up. Although Li Shangkui liked to drink, it was his duty to protect Lu Shaohua, so he finally resisted Weng Wende's kindness.

Li Shangkui's expression was not bad at all. Lu Shaohua saw it. Now they were in Shenzhen, and there was no danger. "Brother Wende! Take it. Brother Li and the others haven't drunk for a long time."

"Okay! You guys wait, I'll go get the wine and check if the dishes are ready." After saying that, Weng Wende walked out of the box, probably going to the kitchen to urge the dishes to be prepared.

……

After a big game dinner, Lu Shaohua finally had a full meal. He didn't know how long it had been since he had eaten so much. Maybe it started after he went to Hong Kong. Although Japanese food is delicious, it is still not as good as the food in his own country!

Lu Shaohua spent most of the afternoon in Weng Wende's restaurant. Li Shangkui and Zhang Qingyun, perhaps because they were afraid that they would not have many opportunities to drink in the future, drank two bottles of Wuliangye and then two bottles of Erguotou. The end result was that both of them fell down, drunk and unconscious, while Lu Shaohua was chatting in Weng Wende's office until after six o'clock in the afternoon, when they had dinner in the restaurant and returned to the fruit shop.

Whistling leisurely and walking briskly into the fruit shop, Lu Shaohua's eyes lit up as soon as he entered the door and then he burst into laughter.
