The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

It took more than half an hour before Lou Xiao'e was satisfied.

"Okay, it's time to take you to meet my parents."

Lou Xiao'e was delighted at this moment, and said with great pride: "It seems that all the magazines I read during this period were not in vain. Look at us standing together now, we are such a perfect match."

Lou Xiao'e was talking. Liu Minghui saw many magazines in the house this time. The covers were either of beauties or handsome guys. There were probably a lot of introductions to clothing and the like.

However, Liu Minghui didn't look at it carefully because it was already late, so he interrupted Lou Xiaoe and said, "It's getting late, so take me to see my uncle and the others first."

Nothing else, there is not much time today and he still needs to talk to Lou's father.

Lou Xiao'e felt that he was a bit of a letdown when she heard that, but she didn't refute him. She stood up and said to him, "Okay, let's go. My dad and the others should have gotten up by now. Let's go have breakfast."

Then, under the guidance of Lou Xiao'e, the two walked down the stairs. According to Lou Xiao'e's explanation, all the people living on this floor were acquaintances. They were either other relatives of the Lou family or people who came from the mainland. These people had served the Lou family all their lives. Before leaving, Lou Zhenhua also brought those who were willing to follow him.

"Dad, Mom, look who's here."

Lou Xiao'e didn't knock on the door. She just took the key to open the door and walked in with Liu Minghui.

As soon as she entered the room, she started shouting, immediately attracting the attention of those waiting in the room.

Lou Xinyang was also here at this time. Together with Lou Xinyang's wife, Lou Zhenhua and his wife, there were four people in the living room.

When they saw Lou Xiao'e bringing Liu Minghui into the room, they all looked at each other in surprise.

After all, they have only been here for a short time, less than half a month in total, so it doesn't make sense for Liu Minghui to come as well.

However, it was Lou Xinyang who reacted first. After all, Liu Minghui would come to Hong Kong Island once a month or so before, and he was used to it, so he was not surprised at all.

"Isn't this my brother-in-law? I haven't seen him for a month or so. I thought Xiao'e had brought someone here."

Lou Xinyang looked bored, which made Lou Zhenhua stunned.

He didn't expect that his eldest son seemed so familiar with Liu Minghui, as if the two were good friends who met often.

"Uncle, aunt, Brother Lou, and sister-in-law, hello."

After Liu Minghui entered the room, he greeted everyone in a serious manner.

When the few people heard this, although they were full of doubts, they were still very enthusiastic about Liu Minghui's arrival.

"Minghui, please take a seat first. You came here overnight. Have you eaten? Let's eat together later."

When Lou's mother saw Liu Minghui, she immediately greeted him with a smile. Apart from anything else, she treated Liu Minghui as her son-in-law.

Lou Zhenhua did the same, smiling and saying to Liu Minghui: "Since you are here, let's sit down and chat."

Upon hearing this, Liu Minghui did not hesitate to sit down on the sofa. Lou Xiaoe also sat down next to him. This posture made the others laugh secretly.

Because when she was with Liu Minghui, Lou Xiao'e would always unconsciously put Liu Minghui first, acting like a little woman.

Lou Zhenhua asked someone to pour tea for the two of them, and then asked about Liu Minghui.

"Why are you here? I remember you said you couldn't come before?"

When Lou Zhenhua left the mainland, he invited Liu Minghui to come to Hong Kong Island, but Liu Minghui refused.

Lou Zhenhua had no way to deal with this until he came to Hong Kong Island and talked with Lou Xinyang. Only then did he realize that Liu Minghui was no simple man and came here almost every month.

That would have been fine, but what Lou Zhenhua didn’t expect was that Liu Minghui was also doing business in Hong Kong Island.

That is the supermarket that was handed over to Lou Xiaoe to manage. It is said that it is making good profits now, or at least not losing money.

Liu Minghui smiled when he heard this, but did not answer the question. Instead, he talked about another thing.

"It's you, uncle. If you hadn't told the leader, and now the leader has asked me to be in charge of this matter, I would have come over to discuss this with you."

When Lou Zhenhua heard this, he also said cheerfully: "Isn't this just to give you some merit?"

Lou Zhenhua said, looking at Lou Xinyang, and then sighed: "After coming out, I realized how big the world is. It just so happens that I have a good friend who is now doing trade with island countries, so I was thinking, can I bring some things to the mainland."

"After all, you know that the island country's industry is more developed than ours, and some equipment is not allowed to be purchased. Although I am a rough man, I also have a heart to serve my country. So I contacted someone I knew before and planned to help buy these things secretly."

Lou Zhenhua's long speech was truly heartbreaking.

All I can say is that everyone has the same opinion as Lou Zhenhua said.

The mainland's industry is indeed underdeveloped at present, and for certain reasons, it can only export some low-priced food and other items. It is basically impossible to purchase some high-end equipment.

Lou Zhenhua is not a selfish person, otherwise he would not have invested a lot of money and purchased equipment to open such a steel rolling mill more than ten years ago.

When Liu Minghui heard what Lou Zhenhua said, his face also looked sad.

He agreed with what Lou Zhenhua said. If possible, he would have planned to smuggle to the mainland of the island country long ago. Relying on the space he possessed, Liu Minghui could even clear out all the industrial facilities against France.

Thinking about it, Liu Minghui asked Lou Zhenhua, "I agree with what my uncle said, but there is a problem now. The higher-ups want high-end equipment, but they can only pay for it on delivery, and there is a transportation problem, so you need to find a way."

Liu Minghui still felt a little embarrassed as he spoke. After all, Lou Zhenhua would need to pay for it first, and he didn't know whether Lou's family had enough money to buy the first batch of equipment.

Who would have thought that after Liu Minghui finished speaking, Lou Zhenhua burst into laughter, patted Liu Minghui on the shoulder, and said arrogantly: "This is not a problem at all. Our family can still afford this little money."

Liu Minghui's tone froze when he heard this. It seemed that he had underestimated the assets of the Lou family. Come to think of it, the Lou family had been rich for decades, and they had saved a lot of money, all of which was brought to Hong Kong Island by Lou Zhenhua.

Unlike in the original drama, the Lou family had to leave in a hurry and only took away some property.

You know, even so, the Lou family was able to build a foundation in Hong Kong Island and leave it to Lou Xiao'e to inherit.

Liu Minghui was also very happy to see this. Apart from anything else, the stronger the Lou family was, the happier Liu Minghui would be. After all, as long as the Lou family could provide more help to the mainland, Liu Minghui's position would be more stable.

"Thank you, uncle."

What else could Liu Minghui say? He could only say thank you.

Next, Liu Minghui and Lou Zhenhua chatted about when the first batch of equipment would be shipped back and how the handover would be done.

After everything was settled and everyone had breakfast together, Liu Minghui and Lou Xiao'e left Lou Zhenhua's house.
