Chapter 476 Study Tea Seal
The meal lasted from 12 o'clock to o'clock in the afternoon.
It was indeed a satisfying meal, but the long meal made Lou Xiao'e so sleepy that she insisted on going back to her room to have a sleep.
Wang Hongtao was called to the study by Lou Bancheng.
A cup of jasmine tea was placed in front of each of them. The small study was filled with the unique floral fragrance of jasmine, which was fresh and pleasant, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Lou Bancheng picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. He looked at Wang Hongtao and said with a smile, "Hongtao, Xiao'e told me that you got married some time ago. Is your wife the girl I met in the hospital last time?"
Wang Hongtao nodded and responded, "Yes, I'm already 24 years old, and it's time for me to get married. But Jingru and Xiao'e are quite close, just like real sisters."
Lou Bancheng smiled and nodded in agreement: "I have seen Jingru before. She is indeed a simple-minded, kind and generous woman. Marrying a wife like her will save you a lot of worries."
"It's just that her family background is not good, so she can't get much help." Lou Bancheng said meaningfully. Of course, his implication was definitely not referring to his own Lou Xiao'e. As a young cadre, Wang Hongtao would never marry his daughter.
Wang Hongtao understood what Lou Bancheng meant: "Of course I know what Uncle Lou said, but flowers do not have a hundred colors. Being in power now does not mean you can be in power in the future. It is better to stay at home comfortably. After all, a small boat is easier to turn around."
"Also, Jingru followed me when I was still asleep, so I can't let her down."
"That makes sense! I haven't thought of this yet." Wang Hongtao's words were beyond Lou Bancheng's expectations.
As if surprised by Wang Hongtao's unique insights, Lou Bancheng hesitated and asked, "My dear son-in-law, you mentioned earlier that we should go to the south or southwest. How should we break the impasse, or where should we start?"
"Naturally, we should do what is most scarce." Wang Hongtao said without hesitation: "For example, living conditions in the south are good, so you can find ways to stockpile more real estate and land; in the southwest, the most scarce things are food and clothing."
"Of course, no matter what you do, the most important thing is definitely your own safety. Few people can compare to you, Uncle Lou, in this regard."
Wang Hongtao was not just flattering. Over the years, Lou Bancheng has been able to stand firm not only by business operations, but also by the white world, the black world, and the gray world in between. Lou Bancheng has experienced all of them clearly.
Wang Hongtao only mentioned it briefly and he didn't intend to go into more details.
It's the same logic. Lou Bancheng was able to build such a huge foundation. What kind of scenes has he not seen?
It's fine to just ask about the general direction and refer to your vision, but if you want to go into too much detail, then you'd be showing off your skills before an expert.
Lou Bancheng held his forehead and thought for a while, then raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Okay, since you have said so much, I will not hide it from you. My next plan is to develop the three plots of land in the southwest."
"As for the local area, I plan to slowly sell off the inconspicuous industries I have, and donate the conspicuous ones directly to avoid criticism."
"Uncle Lou is thinking that money is only meaningful when there are people around." Wang Hongtao nodded and continued to persuade: "For the southwest area, it is best to find out the way before going there."
After talking about the main business, the two began to talk about the past, but this time it was basically all Lou Bancheng talking and Wang Hongtao listening.
Lou Bancheng talked about his experiences and insights in his early years, as well as his romantic affairs when he was young and some business methods he had used.
Wang Hongtao listened to Lou Bancheng's narration as if he was listening to a story. This real experience was even more exciting than any story.
It can be seen that Lou Bancheng really treats Wang Hongtao as his own. In this absolutely safe study, Lou Bancheng really dares to say anything. Some things are incredible even to Wang Hongtao, who has been bombarded by the Internet.
The life and reality during the war years were far more brutal and chaotic than he had imagined.
Yes, how can the crude version that has been screened, beautified, and mosaiced be compared with the uncensored and unabridged version that Lou Bancheng mentioned?
Lou Bancheng hadn't spoken so freely for a long time. After finishing his tea, he leaned back and said happily:
"My dear son-in-law, after listening to Mr. Lou's experience, what do you feel?"
"Four words: breathtaking!" Wang Hongtao exclaimed from the bottom of his heart!
"To be honest, Uncle Lou, I can't even imagine what you're saying, but when you say it, it seems very reasonable."
"Today I have grown up and gained experience."
Lou Bancheng smiled and said, "I have almost finished telling you about my experience. Can you tell me about yours?"
"To be honest, I am also curious about how you were able to go from being a rural hunter to your current position."
Wang Hongtao thought about it and told the important parts of his experience. Of course, since he was a time traveler and had a system, it was impossible for him to tell anyone about it, as he had to take it all with him into the coffin.
Besides, he did not say anything about She Lijuan's matter. The matter was so serious that he could not help but be careful.
After listening to Wang Hongtao's true self-narration, Lou Bancheng did not have too many doubts. To be honest, although Wang Hongtao's operations were quite eye-catching, they were only eye-catching. At least if the positions of the two were swapped, Lou Bancheng would have enough confidence to do better.
After chatting for a while, the two of them went out talking and laughing.
……
Why is it that drinking culture is so enduring?
A banquet and a cup of tea can indeed bring people closer together.
"Hongtao, have you finished talking to Dad?"
As soon as he walked out of the door, Lou Xiao'e came up to him. After a nourishing meal of Tan's dishes and enough rest, Lou Xiao'e looked even more beautiful and charming.
"Well, have you slept enough? If you have, shall we go back?" Wang Hongtao pinched Lou Xiao'e's chin and said lovingly.
"Well... don't..." Lou Xiao'e twisted her body and said unwillingly: "How about you go back first?"
"I...I want to stay at home for two more days."
As she spoke, Lou Xiao'e glanced towards the kitchen and licked her lips.
Well, there's good food and drink here and someone to help take care of the kids. It's definitely better than going home and facing Xu Damao's donkey face.
"Okay." Wang Hongtao nodded with a smile: "When do you plan to come back? I'll pick you up then."
"Three days?" Lou Xiao'e stretched out three fingers and said mischievously, "Can you come pick me up in three days?"
"Okay, I'll come pick you up in three days." Wang Hongtao rubbed Lou Xiao'e's head and said goodbye to Lou's father and mother: "Uncle Lou, Aunt Tan, it's getting late, so I'll go back first."
Mother Lou brought over some food in large and small bags: "Here, take these things with you. I saw that you like these dishes for lunch, so I prepared some more for you."
"They are all dried seafood, including sea cucumbers, abalone, scallops, etc. When you want to eat them, just soak them in water and braise them or make soup."
"And take this can of lard with you too. Don't feel bad about it. Come and get it anytime after you finish eating!"
"Then I won't be polite. Thank you, Aunt Tan!" Knowing that the Lou family had no shortage of this, Wang Hongtao accepted it without hesitation.
"That's right, a family should be so straightforward!" Lou's mother smiled with satisfaction: "Come often when you have time, and I will make you delicious food next time!"
"Hey, I see."
"Uncle Lou, Aunt Tan, and Second Sister, goodbye!"
"Xiao'e, I'm leaving first. I'll come back to pick you up in a few days."
After saying that, Wang Hongtao went back with more things than when he came.
