After the year, Li Rui and Cheng Ye returned to the provincial capital together. Cheng Ye had Lao Xia and those senior brothers taking care of him, so Li Rui felt relieved.He came this time to report to Brother Long about the situation in City D, but the company seemed to have a lot of things to do, so he waited a few days before seeing him.

Brother Long looked a little tired, but he was still very happy to see Li Rui, so he beckoned him to sit down, "How is it? The family is doing well, right?"

Li Rui responded, "It's all good." He and Brother Long had a little friendship, especially when he helped the old lady of the Long family. The old man always remembered Li Rui, and often asked Brother Long to call Li Rui to eat at home.

Brother Long chatted with him for a while, then took out a document from the drawer and handed it to him, motioning Li Rui to take it and read it, "I heard the old lady talk about your father's situation before, so I asked someone to check it out. It's a thing of the past, and what can be found now is very limited."

Li Rui's heart moved. Hearing what Brother Long said, did he want to help his father reverse the case?The stack of materials in the file bag is indeed related to the events of that year.Li Rui remembered the names of those scumbags clearly. Long Ge found more things than he had found in these years, and there was a lawyer's suggestion on it. It seemed that the sentence reduction was very promising.

"It wasn't difficult to get people out of it, but my identity is still sensitive now, and I'm afraid that someone will deliberately make a fuss about it, and things will be complicated." Although Brother Long has been cleansed now, there are still people staring at the previous matter. , not very easy to start with. "I found a few lawyers I know and asked them to handle it. It is estimated that it will be completed in the second half of the year."

Within a few words, Li Rui felt his heart beating uncontrollably, almost jumping out of his throat - his dad is coming out soon?Are they about to reunite? !Li Rui looked at Brother Long and thanked him hoarsely, "Brother Long, I... thank you."

Brother Long waved his hand, "My brother, don't talk about this." After finishing speaking, he asked Li Rui about the situation in City D. Things can't be said for sure.In particular, Brother Long put all his energy on the provincial capital, and didn't care too much about City D. Most of the things were handled by the lame youngest.

Li Rui answered truthfully. He had just been there not long ago, so he had very limited experience. It was only when the lame third child wanted to help him that he got into that circle.

Brother Long thought for a while, then raised his head and asked Li Rui, "Your brother treats you well?"

Li Rui nodded, without any intention of hiding anything, "He usually takes good care of me."

Brother Long fell silent, frowning slightly, as if thinking about something.After a while, he continued to tell Li Rui, "Help me keep an eye on him, something is wrong with City D recently." If it was before, Brother Long might not be so relieved to talk to Li Rui about this, but now it is different, He knew that Li Rui was the same kind of person as he was, and he treated his family members unequivocally.He was able to get Li Rui's father out of prison, which was selling a huge favor to Li Rui, and at the same time gave himself a reassurance.Li Rui was on his side both emotionally and rationally.

"Got it." Li Rui did not hesitate, and immediately agreed.He was able to get what he is today because of Brother Long's promotion. In addition to his father's affairs, Li Rui owed him a lot. "Brother Long call someone again, and I'll take it to City D."

"Who?"

"Yellow hair." Li Rui blurted out the name without even thinking about it. "Before I went to D City, the group of people in my hand belonged to the third child. Huang Mao was cautious and smart in doing things, and knew a lot about the situation of the third child. It was useful for me to go there."

Brother Long was still wondering that Li Rui didn't bring a smart person with him when he went to City D. Now that he heard the use of the yellow hair, he also guessed that Li Rui might not be as reassuring as he seemed to be with the lame third child. of.He had more trust in Li Rui, "Okay, you can do what you want, I just want the result."

Li Rui nodded. He had long expected that he would come forward to demand someone. If Brother Long spoke up, it would make the crippled third child suspicious.He said this to Brother Long because he wanted to tell Brother Long about the personnel in his hand, so that there would be a follow-up at that time.

The first thing Huang Mao did when he came to work under Li Rui was to follow Li Rui back to his hometown to see the furniture factory run by his uncle.The factory is very rough and not fully staffed, it looks like a small handicraft workshop.

Uncle Li Rui's family didn't care about the reception, he just devoted himself to doing work with a few master carpenters, and the reception of people came under the supervision of Fatty Yang.Yang Dapang had met Huang Mao before, and it was earlier. Huang Mao came to the farm to ask about Li Rui's mother. Yang Dapang and the others didn't know much and couldn't say anything, but they heard that they found it later.But I just found it and never heard of anything else.

Fatty Yang was not sure what Huangmao was doing this time. They didn't dare to mention Li Rui's mother.Along the way, Li Rui and Huang Mao didn't dare to say a word, and when Li Rui spoke, they only nodded in agreement.

Huang Mao stayed with Li Rui on the farm for a few days, a little panicked, and quietly asked Li Rui when no one was around, "Brother Rui, when are we going to City D? I don't think the furniture factory is in a hurry , why don't we go back and have a look, I'm afraid it's been here for so long..."

"What's the rush, it won't be too late to go back in two days." Li Rui was fiddled with his new mobile phone with a cigarette in his mouth. The blue screen one was quite small. He thought about getting one for Cheng Ye as well. The two of them made a phone call from such a distance It's really inconvenient.

Huang Mao followed Li Rui quietly, not daring to say anything for a moment, but he was inevitably puzzled.Why isn't Li Rui in a hurry?

Li Rui really didn't need to worry at all. He took Huang Mao around outside for almost a month, and when he returned to D city, there was no chaos at all.Not only was there no chaos, but it was even calmer than when Li Rui was around.

It's not the kind of calm before the chaos, but a kind of calm that has been restrained, which kind of means that everyone's well water does not interfere with the river water.

This is too regular, and the rules are a bit abnormal.

Huang Mao's doubts were resolved at the welcome banquet that the lame third child gave Li Rui.His identity was the driver, so he couldn't go in with Li Rui to eat at the same table, so he set up a few other tables in the outer hall alone.There were also bodyguards among the few people sitting at the same table with Huang Mao. They rarely drank, but they all looked old-fashioned.Huang Mao's eyes were sharp, and he recognized a few of the old guy's subordinates at a glance. He had met him once when he was running errands with Brother Long.The old men in the room didn't listen to greetings very much, and Li Rui was brought in by the lame youngest... Huang Mao lowered his eyes and drank tea, he understood a little bit.

After the welcome feast, Huang Mao drove Li Rui back, hesitantly wanting to say something to Li Rui along the way, "Brother Rui, I saw just now that Brother San personally sent you out...?"

Li Rui drank a few more glasses at the bar, and now he was resting with his eyes closed, and he answered with a hmm.

Huang Mao remembered that Yang Dashao, who used to provoke them all the time, seemed to have friendship with the lame third child, and he had a good friendship, no wonder he didn't provoke them during this time.When Li Rui first joined the company, those old guys often stumbled behind him, but now they don't say much.Could it be that Li Rui found the lame Ah San as his backer?But when Li Rui joined the gang, Brother Long nodded.

Huang Mao guessed all the way, but still couldn't figure it out.

The second thing Li Rui asked Huang Mao to do was to apply for a loan from the company.This is considered a private matter, but there are too many people in the company, and the lame third child still knows about it.When Li Rui's loan was still being approved, he invited Li Rui over in advance. Of course, it was not in the name of giving money. The lame youngest asked Li Rui to go fishing.

In a large indoor fishing area, there are only two people sitting.One old and one young, the slightly older one was the lame third child, and the young and energetic one was naturally Li Rui.The two of them sat on a comfortable chair where they could lie on their backs. Next to them were fishing rods that had already been baited and put into the water. When they came to this kind of place, it was natural that they would be served by a full range of services.

The lame youngest listened carefully to Li Rui's plan about the furniture factory, blinked his dim eyes, took out a sum of money and put it on the small coffee table between the two of them, and offered to become a shareholder. "It sounds interesting. I wonder if the money is enough to run the factory?"

Li Rui was not a fool either. Looking at the money and at the lame third child, he didn't intend to take it.He even raised his eyebrows slightly, showing a somewhat cautious expression, "Third brother, this... is against the rules, right? This is a matter of my family, you take the money back, I can't take it."

The lame youngest was still friendly to Li Rui, and he didn't mean to put on airs at all, "Little brother, don't you want to call me brother in public and private? These are the capital lent to you by my brother. Do you want to do business?" , it’s easier to travel if you have more friends.”

There was something in the lame youngest's words. Li Rui thought about the meaning, picked up the thin paper with attractive numbers on it with his fingers, and said, "You don't get paid for nothing. Third brother, Li Rui didn't read much. You idiot, it's really uneasy to take so much money for no reason."

"Hehe, my little brother can be regarded as his own now. There is absolutely no reason to suffer from hanging around with a few older brothers." The lame third child smiled. He was not afraid to throw out more bait, but he was afraid that the fish would not take the bait.He pushed the check towards Li Rui, and added another sentence as if casually, "This amount of money is nothing, brother, I'm still in charge, you can take it with confidence."

Li Rui stopped being hypocritical, put the check on the table away carefully and put it in the pocket of his underwear, and thanked the lame third child.

The lame youngest saw Li Rui's obviously relaxed expression, and smiled with satisfaction. After all, he was still a young man and couldn't hide things.His fishing rod moved, and the lame young man walked slowly in a circle before lifting the rod. He was very proficient in doing these things.There is no fish that is not greedy for bait.

On the other side, Li Rui's fishing rod also vibrated. He was more anxious than the lame youngest, and frantically swung the rod like a novice—coincidentally, a big fish was suddenly thrown ashore!

"The technique is good." The lame youngest praised him, with a relaxed smile in his eyes, making him even more sure that he was a novice.

"Where, it's just a brute force..." Li Rui glanced at the big fish that fell on the bank and had no strength to move, put another piece of bait on it, and put the hook into the water again. "It's just some good luck."

Fishing again, I'm afraid I don't know who is going to catch whom.

Passerby A: Cheng Ye, your brother Rui is lying...

Stupid Cheng Ye: You, you lied to me!

Passerby A with blood on his face: ... Let me tell you, listen to me anyway.
