My 1978 Hotel

"Hey, Dad, why are you so early?"

Li Feng was awakened early in the morning by the urge to urinate. He opened the door and was about to go to the toilet, but he was startled to find a dark figure squatting at the door. He walked closer and saw clearly that it was his father Li Fuan.

"Nothing, nothing."

Li Fuan was about to stand up, but his legs were numb from squatting, and he almost fell. Li Feng caught him. "Dad, have you been squatting here all night?"

"No, I came here a little after two o'clock."

Well, it's already past five o'clock. No wonder my legs and feet are numb. I've been squatting for two or three hours. "Are you worried about the things in the house?"

"Hey, Boss, you'd better get these things back quickly."

Li Fuan sighed. "Your mother and I stayed up all night. Your mother stayed here for the first half of the night, and I took over for the second half."

"what?"

Li Feng was at a loss for words. "Dad, these are just food and drinks. Who would steal them? It's not easy to steal them."

"You and Mom care too much."

"How can I not care? One item costs hundreds of thousands, and that's just a small amount." When Li Fuan thought about the pile of things worth more than two million, how could he sleep? The couple didn't sleep the whole night.

"Okay, you can keep a few of them. I'll load the rest onto the truck for them to take back."

Li Feng said helplessly. "Actually, if it's food, just open it and eat it. It doesn't matter if it's expensive or cheap. It's just a mouthful of food."

"That's easy to say, but your mother and I are not that precious. We can't bring ourselves to do that."

Li Fushan was terrified when he thought about how he could not afford to eat something worth several thousand yuan, let alone tens of thousands of yuan.

"It's not that exaggerated."

Seeing that Li Fuan wanted to say something, Li Feng quickly pretended to surrender and said, "Okay, I'll ask them to take them all back later. Dad, you go to bed first."

"You must have been busy all night. I'll drive to the street to buy breakfast later. You and mom don't have to get up to cook." After saying that, Li Feng ran to the toilet. When he came back, he saw Li Fuan still there.

"Dad, it's almost dawn. Who would be stupid enough to steal things now? You should go to bed quickly." There was really nothing he could do. Li Feng thought to himself, it's not a good thing to give gifts that are too expensive. It scared the old couple.

"Then I'm going to sleep. Be careful and get up to check if you hear any noise."

Li Fuan was still a little worried and told his eldest son, Li Feng nodded vigorously. "Dad, don't worry."

After watching Li Fuan return to his second brother's house, Li Feng shook his head and returned to his room.

"Why does it take so long?"

"I met my dad, didn't you know..."

Li Feng crawled under the blanket and gently hugged Han Zhaoxia. He told her about his encounter with Li Fuan, which amused Han Zhaoxia. "Oh, why didn't you explain it to Wu Tong and the others? Giving them such an expensive gift would scare me, not to mention my parents."

"I didn't expect this. Although I usually give some gifts, they are at most good fruits worth a few thousand yuan, Maotai, Wuliangye and the like. Who would have thought that the gifts this time would be so high-end, with so many gift boxes worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan." Li Feng actually guessed it in his heart. It was still because of Wang Yin's body recovery.

This investment and the gifts were all due to Li Feng's demonstrated value, which made him even more eager to increase his popularity. The launch of the inter-time shuttle was imminent. First, he decided to get a thousand people to upgrade, and then he would talk about it. Li Feng was thinking about who to target first.

As long as the person was deceived, it would be easy to deal with him later. There was a system in place. Unlike Wu Tong and other customers, Li Feng did not intend to be so friendly to everyone. After sleeping for a while, Li Feng got up.

"what happened?"

"It's okay, I'll go buy breakfast, you can sleep a little longer."

Li Feng dressed and went out. Unexpectedly, Li Liang was also up, with dark circles under his eyes. "Didn't you sleep well?"

"Kind of."

"Then go back and sleep for a while. I'll go buy breakfast on the street so you don't have to cook in the morning."

Li Feng shook his head. This guy was causing trouble. Well, he should take these things back. Otherwise, the whole family would not be able to sleep well.

"Oh."

Li Liang's head was still a little fuzzy, and he didn't wake up until Li Feng started the car. "Forget it, let's go back to sleep." Li Feng left the village and walked all the way to the street. At this time, a breakfast stall had already been set up.

We ordered some oil tea, tofu pudding, beef soup, mung bean cake soup, and soy milk, as well as some meat buns, vegetable buns, fried slices, fried dough sticks, egg-filled pancakes, multi-grain pancakes, sesame seed buns, fried dough sticks, and even sauce-flavored pancakes.

Wow, there were so many big and small packages that Li Feng made two trips back and forth, enough for more than ten or twenty people to eat.

"I'm afraid I'll be scolded when I go back."

He bought too much. Li Feng wanted to buy everything he saw. He just bought two pounds of fried potato chips, stinky tofu, and two pounds of mixed cold dishes. He bought all the food on half the street. He was so busy buying that he didn't pay much attention and bought too much.

When he got home, around 7:30, Li Feng had parked the car and there was almost no space for a large round table.

"Breakfast."

Li Feng looked at the table full of breakfast and swallowed his saliva. It was too much. As expected, Han Zhaoxia, the first one to come out, rubbed her eyes, thinking she was seeing things. "Why, buying so much?"

"I bought some of everything, but I didn't notice I bought a little more."

"This is not a little bit too much."

Han Zhaoxia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Are you planning to open a breakfast stall?"

"Did Mom and Dad call?"

"not yet."

Li Feng said as he wiped his hands. "I'll go call your parents, you wake up the two kids."

"Ah."

When Li Feng called Li Fuan and Zuo Chuanlan over, Li Liang, Wang Xiaohui and the three children had already brushed their teeth and washed their faces, and were eating buns.

"so much?"

Wow! Li Fuan was shocked. It would take three days to finish this table of breakfast.

"I didn't buy anything. I bought too much without noticing."

Li Feng was feeling a bit embarrassed, but luckily Li Muchen and the others called and said they were on their way and would be here soon. "I just bought breakfast for you guys, come over quickly."

"it is good."

Li Muchen was quite happy because Boss Li was thinking of preparing breakfast for them. Little did they know that Li Feng had bought too much.

"This kid, tell me earlier, we can eat later."

Li Fuan glared at Li Feng, wondering why the guests were leaving the leftovers. He then turned to Zuo Chuanlan and said, "Pick some up and put them away."

"Let me do it, Mom, you eat it."

Li Fenggang had already eaten his fill, so he picked up some food from a plaque and covered it to keep it warm. "Hey, Li Ran, why aren't you eating?"

"Not too hungry."

This child didn't eat much yesterday. This picky eating habit is getting worse and worse. Who knows what snacks she'll eat later. "Aren't the buns good? And these pancakes, look at how happily she eats them."

"I'm not hungry."

Li Ran was unhappy. Li Feng was also a little helpless about this kid. "Eat a little."

"Yes, have some, Ranran, the meat buns are delicious."

Li Ran pouted and reluctantly took the bun from his grandmother. "Thank you, grandma."

"Eat, eat, eat more."

Li Feng glanced at Li Ran. This kid was nibbling away at his food like an ant. "I'll have to find a chance later to cure this kid of his picky eating habits."

"Look at this kid."

Li Feng complained to Han Zhaoxia in a low voice.

"Alas, this is because we didn't take good care of him back then, and he developed this bad habit."

As a teacher, Han Zhaoxia doesn't have a good solution for picky eating, especially since it's so difficult to change once a picky eating habit develops. "Actually, Ranran is pretty good except for being a bit picky. You don't know, kids these days are just so hard to describe."

"They were very rebellious in their fifth and sixth years," Han Zhaoxia said. "There were seven or eight of them in one class, and they would get angry if you said anything less. Their families didn't dare to intervene, and neither did we teachers."

"so serious?"

"No."

Han Zhaoxia sighed. "Self-harm, how horrible is that?"

"That's true."

"Our Ranran is fine. Apart from being picky about food, everything else is pretty good."

Li Feng couldn't help but flatter Han Zhaoxia. "It's better to have a mother who is a teacher. She can educate people well."

"That is."

Han Zhaoxia smiled and patted Li Feng. This guy was becoming more and more talkative now. "There's a car outside. Is Wu Tong and the others here?"

"I'll go out and take a look."

Li Feng went out and saw that the car was not Li Muchen and his friends'.

"Secretary, why are you here?"

It’s so early, and this so-called old classmate of mine, who doesn’t even go to work, is running to my doorstep so early in the morning.

"Old classmate, come quickly, let me introduce you. This is Mayor Liu from our town." Chen Cheng introduced Li Feng with a happy face when he saw that it was Li Feng who came out.

"Mayor Liu?"

Li Feng took a look at the middle-aged man, about 45 years old. He was the mayor. He looked like a leader, but this was the first time Li Feng had seen him.

"Boss Li, you see, I've been busy with work these two days and didn't know you were coming back, so this happened." Wow, Li Feng thought to himself, this mayor really has the nerve to say that. Although I grew up in the town, I have never seen the mayor or the town secretary since I was a child.

It’s not easy to see the village secretary. What you said seems to indicate that we have a good relationship.

"What are you talking about, Mayor Liu? Please come in and sit down."

Although Li Feng didn't take it too seriously, it was still the officials' fault. His parents would get some care at home because of this relationship. Besides, people don't hit people who smile at them. The officials even brought some fruits.

"Uncle, Auntie is eating."

Wow, Li Feng thought to himself, this Mayor Liu is really amazing.

"Ah, this is it?"

Li Fuan and Zuo Chuanlan saw several strangers coming in. The first one was a man in his forties who called them uncle and aunt when he saw them, but they couldn't tell who they were.

"Dad, Mom, this is Mayor Liu from our town."

"Uncle, auntie, just call me Liu Zhen."

Mayor Liu was very enthusiastic. Li Fuan and Zuo Chuanlan were surprised. Mayor, usually when the secretary came to their home, they would give him a warm welcome. But who would have thought that the mayor would come to their house so early in the morning and bring fruit and milk.

I won’t say more about that. He calls them uncle and aunt whenever he opens his mouth and closes his mouth. That guy is as warm-hearted as my nephew at home.

"Mayor, please sit down."

"Secretary, please sit down. Have you eaten yet? Or would you like to eat something at home?"

Li Fuan felt a little regretful after he finished speaking. Well, the breakfast on the table had been eaten by several children, so it looked a bit messy.

"Eat, eat."

"Uncle, aunt, sorry to bother you so early in the morning."

"What are you talking about?"

Li Fuan was a bit bewildered. This mayor was too approachable. Why was his manner different from that of an official? Li Feng saw that his parents were a bit reserved and hurried forward to chat with them. After a while, Li Muchen, Wu Tong, and Qin Yue came over.

Finally, Li Fuan and Zuo Chuanlan no longer needed to accompany him, so he called a few people and went to boil water.

"Oh my god, the mayor is here this morning."

Wang Xiaohui didn't dare to speak for a long time. It was the first time she met the mayor.

"What's the big deal about the mayor? Didn't I meet with the deputy mayor yesterday?"

Li Liang was excited, thrilled, and a little proud. This was the mayor of the town. He would talk to others about it later. The secretary and the mayor would come to visit him in turn. Maybe one day the mayor would come to visit too. He didn't dare to think about it.

Li Liang turned around and glanced at Li Feng, Mayor Liu and others who were chatting happily in the living room.

For a small town, an investment of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions is simply a pie in the sky.

"Dear bosses, I, Liu Zhen, am here to say something. As long as I can get it done, I will give you the people and the land without any hesitation." Liu Zhen patted his chest and guaranteed that there would be no problem with the approval, and he would go to the county in person.

"That's troublesome, Mayor Liu."

"No trouble, no trouble."

Liu Zhen thought to himself, I didn't want to think too much about this in my life. This guy is a piece of cake, maybe I can even get a promotion. Liu Zhen chatted with him for a while, talking about it briefly, mainly asking about Li Muchen's background.

After learning the specific company group, the assistant beside him quickly found out that it was a large company with assets of tens of billions. Liu Zhen's eyes lit up. This Boss Li, who called him "little brother", was actually so wealthy.

No wonder he asked for two thousand acres of land. The other two must be no simple people. Chen Cheng said that the cousin of the eldest lady from the city is the deputy director of the farm. Liu Zhen values this relationship very much. Maybe they can establish a relationship.

If you want to make progress, political achievements are one thing, but having connections above you is also very important. Liu Zhen has no intention of looking down on these people. Of course, there is also Li Feng, the low-key boss Li. Liu Zhen has been observing them all the time, and it is exactly the same as Chen Cheng said.

The three young masters and young ladies from the city had a strange and overly enthusiastic attitude towards Li Feng. He was afraid that there was something going on behind his back that they didn't know about. However, he didn't intend to inquire about it. He just wanted to know that Boss Li was capable.

After all, his parents are in town, so it won't be a wrong thing to take care of him. Maybe he can even say a few good words for me, so of course I have to treat him well.

"This Mayor Liu is a good person."

"He's a man with a keen eye."

"After all, he's been working at the grassroots level for more than ten or twenty years, and he speaks one way to one person and another way to another." Needless to say, he has a thick face and is very humble.

"But this is also good. I think the investment will go much more smoothly."

Li Feng looked at Li Muchen, Wu Tong and Qin Yue and thought, as long as Liu Zhen is not stupid, he will definitely not put on airs in front of you. Not to mention that you are investors with a lot of money, Liu Zhen would love to do so. Besides, just based on the information revealed by Wu Tong yesterday, the deputy chief's cousin.

Liu Zhen also has to be praised. As long as he is not stupid, he will definitely make the young masters and young ladies from the city happy.

"Breakfast is still hot, let's eat and chat."

"You know what, I'm a little hungry." Li Muchen said with a smile.

"This bun smells really good."

Wu Tong took a bun.

“If you like to eat more, you buy more.”

Li Feng whispered. "You guys should take it easy on the investment. Young man, you should discuss it with Mr. Li. After all, it's not a small matter."

"Boss Li, don't worry."

Li Muchen put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth. "My brother will come over for an inspection in a few days. We'll leave the details to the company when we discuss it."

"That's good."

Li Feng was a little worried that Li Muchen would make an impulsive investment. If things got ugly, he would be blamed, since it was his hometown after all. "Then I can go traveling without any worries."

"Boss Li, you don't have to worry about the investment at all."

Wu Tong wiped his hands. "We'll definitely go through the formal procedures when the time comes. After all, this concerns our pocket money."

"Yeah, this is the pocket money I saved with great difficulty, I'm afraid of losing it."

Qin Yue said, "Boss Li, just take your uncle and aunt and have fun. We'll hire someone to take care of the investment."

"It seems that I was overthinking it."

As they were talking, there was a commotion outside the door. What was going on? Li Feng was a little confused. "You guys eat first, I'll go take a look." (End of this chapter)
