Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

Chapter 314 Long Xu Closes the Shop

The next day.

Early in the morning, a brand new truck drove into the Dongsheng Brigade.

There was a red cloth tied to the car's rearview mirror, and the glass was wiped clean enough to be used as a mirror.

Many children followed the car curiously all the way to Li Youcai's house. They surrounded the truck, looking around, extremely curious.

Li Youjie opened the door and jumped out from the passenger seat.

"Hey hey...isn't this Li Er?"

"Really? The Li family has made a fortune. Could this car have been bought by them themselves?"

"I think it's probably true. Didn't you see the red string hanging on the car? It must be new."

"Buying a car is a big deal. Old Li's family should have set up several tables."

······

Several people jumped out of the back of the truck. They were all called by Li Youjie to help move.

Many people were talking about it, and some brave ones even went up to touch and pat it.

The Dongfeng light truck, which was made of iron, only made a few muffled sounds.

As the first family in the brigade to buy a car, Li Youjie was very happy.

Inside the house, all the things that needed to be taken away had been packed. In addition to clothes and bedding, there were also some pots, pans, and utensils for eating.

Hearing the noise outside, Li Youcai pushed open the door and saw his younger brother Li Youjie leading people into the yard.

"I'm here, everything is packed, just move in directly."

Li Youjie entered the house and began to direct the people he brought with him to move things.

Li Mei was worried that these young people might be clumsy with their hands, so after breaking something, she kept reminding everyone to handle it with care.

When the villagers outside saw Li Youcai's family loading things into the car, they realized that Li Youcai was moving. Some of those who were close to him also came into the yard to help move things.

Zhang Laoer wolfed down half of the steamed bun in his hand and hurried into Li Youcai's house.

"Where are you moving to?"

"Second brother is here. We are going to live in the county town for a while." Li Youcai responded when he saw Zhang Laoer come in.

"You guys want to go to the county, right? It's still far from here. You'll have to go back and forth every day, so it's more convenient to live in the county."

Zhang Laoer said something, then picked up a bag and moved it outside.

In the past two years, Zhang Laoer and his wife have been making ice cream with Li Youcai, and they have made a lot of money in both years. They are still one of the richest families in Dongsheng Brigade. The couple are also very grateful to the Li family. No matter what big or small things happen in Li Youcai's family, the couple will come to help.

Li Guanghu walked over slowly, holding his pipe with one hand behind his back.

"Uncle Li, your family is really rich. You even bought a big car!"

"Brother Li is so lucky! Look at the life he lives. It's really enviable."

Li Guanghu was smoking a cigarette and was also very happy: "Why should I envy you? You will get it sooner or later."

Someone close to Li Guanghu joked, "Brother Li, your family has so much money now that you can't spend it all. Why don't you take some out and let us help you spend it?"

Ha ha···

Li Guanghu chuckled and said immediately, "More than enough to spend, I'm using all the money from the Great Unity now. If you don't mind, go to the thatched cottage and look around. Whatever you find is yours."

Hahaha···

Everyone laughed again.

It is common for rural people to joke around in their spare time. No one takes it seriously and they just treat it as fun.

Li Youcai came out of the house holding Duoduo.

"Dad, we're going to the county soon. Come with us and we'll have lunch there."

"I understand." Li Guanghu responded in a deep voice.

"This old Li is still pretending."

Hahaha···

There weren't many things to begin with, and with the help of the villagers, the things were quickly loaded onto the truck.

Duoduo was also excited when she saw the truck and asked to ride on it.

Finally, Li Youjie held Duoduo and sat in the driver's seat.

Others are preparing to take the bus.

Under the envious gaze of the villagers, Li Youcai's family moved out of the countryside and became the first family in the brigade to move into the county town.

the other side.

Long Xu was called to the guesthouse by Wang Qiang. After some understanding, Long Xu also understood Li Youcai's intention of transferring him here.

"In short, Brother Cai's meaning is very clear. The entire first floor must be taken back, and no family can be left behind."

"How about it? If you have any ideas, you can tell me." In the office on the fourth floor, Wang Qiang asked while sitting on a somewhat old office chair.

Long Xu pondered for a moment and spoke slowly, "There are more than twenty shops in total. The credit union is probably the most difficult to deal with. They are state-owned and very powerful. Ordinary methods are useless against them. If we want to make them move, we still need to work hard with the upper management. Brother Cai will need to use his connections to do this."

Wang Qiang nodded when he heard this.

"The remaining shops are rural enterprises. We can negotiate with them. After we transform the first floor into a shopping mall, we can promise them some stalls and let them continue to operate here. We can also compensate them a little money. That should work."

"That's fine too. Brother Cai has already said that as long as the price is reasonable, we can give them some compensation."

"Then there are only a dozen or so merchants who stick together."

Long Xu pinched his chin, his mind racing.

"Among those dozen or so businesses, the vast majority are not suitable to continue operating in the mall. Hair salons and hardware stores must be cleared out," Wang Qiang reminded.

"As for solutions? I do have two, but they're both a bit shady. I'd like to have a good talk with them. If they're willing to take compensation and move out, that would be best. If not, then you can't blame me."

"Since you already have an idea, I'll leave this matter to you. I still have to go to the design institute, so I'll leave this to you."

Wang Qiang gave Long Xu a copy of the keys to the office and the building.

"Work hard. Only when you do a difficult job well can you be called a capable person. Brother Cai trusts you, and I think you can do it too. Seize the opportunity."

"Well, thank you Brother Qiang for the tip."

Long Xu's face was full of smiles, and he was very grateful.

Long Xu is a smart man and he understands that challenges and opportunities coexist.

People like him, with no family background and no backing, are just ordinary working people.

If he wants to stand out, he has to do what others cannot do.

In Li Youcai's team, he is a latecomer. If he wants to stand out, he needs to have some outstanding achievements.

And this time, Brother Cai directly asked him to do it.

Long Xu knew very well that this was his best chance to prove himself.

"I will definitely perform well and try to take back all the shops before the construction starts!"
