Chapter 470 Dispute!
"You don't know, the toilets in my grandson's aristocratic school are all out of water! The child said that the teacher informed them that they don't need to flush the toilet after use, and after eating and washing dishes, the restaurant staff will use waste water to flush..." Boss Chen, who is in his fifties, shook his head, thinking that this is too unsafe: "It's okay for adults, but children might get sick if they do this. This is not okay, Comrade Zhang."
Zhang Shenfei shook his head. This was not a big problem... There were still dry toilets everywhere in the mainland, so seeing some shit was not a big deal.
"These are all minor matters, Mr. Zhang. More importantly, our work will be affected! Our machines must be operated with clean water. If we use seawater to produce and work, the machines will be useless. At that time, the port city's economy will be affected, and it will be difficult for the mainland to do business. After all, we are all family. Mr. Zhang, go back to the mainland and talk to us and think of a solution."
Zhang Shenfei sneered in his heart. This was the man. When he approached him before, he was so pretentious. He always secretly looked down on the poor mainlanders and had a sense of superiority...
If he hadn't done things that were friendly to the mainland, Zhang Shenfei wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to him.
"Boss Lin is right. We are of the same blood. I am also very worried about the problems in your factory, so don't worry. Just take a break for two days."
Boss Lin was so anxious that he just rubbed his hands. He was a native of Hong Kong and the education he received was superior to that of people in mainland China.
Now that the water supply has been cut off, he has looked for those foreign high-ranking officials in Gangcheng, but those people are all useless and of no use at all.
After much thought, I decided to rely on my old mother.
"Mr. Zhang, please don't say that. I stopped working because I deserved it for my previous offenses. But the problem now is that the workers are already having trouble living due to the water shortage. If we stop working for too long, they won't be able to get paid and their lives will be even harder. So just consider it as a request from me, Mr. Zhang. Just consider it for the sake of the people. Please go back to the mainland and find a solution for us."
"Boss Lin is right, Comrade Zhang. Now it's not just schools and factories that are having problems with water supply, but more importantly, hospitals are not immune. If things continue like this, there will be big problems in Hong Kong..."
"I went to the hospital yesterday, and I heard that they didn't even dare to change or wash the bedsheets..."
"Everyone, please line up to get water. Some families are dying of thirst..."
There were about twenty people in the private room, talking at once. Zhang Shenfei quietly approached his uncle and the two of them chatted.
“What happened to the water supply?”
Zhang Shenfei still wanted to figure out how it came to this.
His uncle shook his head, also looking worried.
“You don’t know…”
Next, Zhang Shenfei's uncle told Zhang Shenfei about the recent water supply situation in the port city.
The geographical environment of the port city means that there is no natural water storage lake here. In addition, the underground rock layer is very hard, making it impossible to effectively store water.
This results in that every time a drought occurs, the water in the surface water sources will evaporate rapidly.
The water level of reservoirs will drop rapidly, and small pools, streams and rivers will dry up...
"This kind of situation has happened in previous years, but there has never been such a long-term and continuous drought like this year." As my uncle was speaking, the secretary next to him picked up a Cuban cigar that was handed to him and put it in his mouth.
“Now the people are showing resistance because of the difficulty in getting water. Some people in the village houses even fought over water, and the number of cases at the police station has increased significantly.
But what is infuriating is that the people of their country can use water first. Isn’t this a clear case of discrimination? ?
Therefore, it is not okay to be a dog or a second-class citizen for the Y countrymen, as you are destined to be abandoned.
If you want to live with dignity and stand up completely, you can't linger under others. "
My uncle's voice was not loud, but his pronunciation was clear and every word was audible.
After hearing what he said, the other wealthy businessmen looked at each other, but none of them continued to follow up on his words.
They are all people who have been working in the business world for decades. They are all shrewd people and some of their words will not be accepted lightly.
Besides, they came because of the water supply problem and they also wanted to solve this problem.
I don't want to create any more trouble and get involved in other things.
Several people looked at each other tentatively, and finally their eyes fell on a thin man wearing glasses.
This person pushed up his glasses and spoke slowly:
"Don't get excited, let's talk about the water supply problem first."
“After this incident, everyone’s hopes were originally placed on the current government… There is no water locally, so we can only choose to desalinate seawater or transfer water from other places.
Both of these methods require extremely high costs, so the current government is naturally unwilling to do so..." said a wealthy businessman named Li, "After all, they never treat us Hongcheng people as human beings. In their eyes, we are just land.
During this period, the major chambers of commerce and various industries have been demonstrating and negotiating frequently, but they have been playing dead..."
The wealthy businessman named Li followed the eldest sister and sighed after he finished speaking.
He himself was not born in Gangcheng, but was a native of Lufeng, a place famous for "there is Leigong in the sky and Hailufeng on the earth".
Although he is not a native local, he came to Hong Kong when he was a teenager and started as an apprentice in a watch shop. He dedicated most of his youth to Hong Kong and also created a world for himself here.
Therefore, he has very deep feelings for Hong Kong City.
Of course, putting aside the feelings and just talking about business, he also hopes that the drought and water shortage problems can be solved as soon as possible.
After Mr. Li finished speaking, another wealthy businessman named Huo said, "The people of Gangcheng have reached an extremely difficult time. At this time, only the motherland can help us..."
"We have already explained the situation to the mainland. Comrade Zhang, since you are coming from the mainland this time, we feel it is necessary to meet with you and explain the situation.
I hope you can tell the leaders in the mainland what you have seen and heard here after you return.”
Zhang Shenfei listened to them quietly and after asking about all the situations, he said that he would report everything he had seen and heard.
"As for how the higher-ups will handle this next? That's not something I can control..." he said.
“Actually, in my opinion, it would be best if the mainland could build a canal to supply water from Guangdong Province to the port city and completely solve our water problem…” said the wealthy businessman surnamed Li.
Everyone knows that the mainland is vast and rich in resources. As long as they can provide a steady supply of water, why should they be afraid of drought after the Great Wall is built?
The wealthy businessman surnamed Huo frowned and said, “But building such a canal requires a lot of money. The initial investment is already huge, and the cost of subsequent maintenance should not be underestimated.
As we all know, the situation in the mainland was already not good, and it suffered a lot in the past few years due to some reasons.
It's not easy for them either. How can such a big project be easy? So I advise you not to put too much pressure on the mainland..."
Before he finished speaking, the refugee, a wealthy businessman named Li, spoke with some dissatisfaction: "If the problem can be easily solved, why should we sit here?
Besides, everyone knows that the mainland belongs to us and our hometown is our mother.
Now that the child has problems and difficulties, how can the mother sit idly by? ? "
Before he finished speaking, several other wealthy businessmen began to echo him, saying all sorts of things. But in short, they all believed that the mainland must lend a helping hand this time.
Everyone was discussing the matter heatedly, but no one was there who could make a decision.
Such a big matter cannot be resolved by just one or two dinner parties.
In the end, of course, such discussions produced no results.
The dinner ended in a whimper. After Zhang Shenfei said goodbye to everyone, he took a taxi to the Lou family.
As soon as he walked into the gate of Lou's house, he signaled to his sister who opened the door for him that there was no need to go in and report. He walked in briskly, wanting to give everyone a surprise.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door of the main hall, he heard a roar coming from inside.
"Lou Xiao'e, don't be so selfish!!! Do you want me to beg you now?" Although the voice was from a boy, it was a little sharp and particularly harsh to the ears.
"What Xiaojun said makes sense. Lou Xiao'e, don't forget that you are also a member of the Lou family. If the business downstairs fails, you will not be able to survive either!" an old female voice said, "The master divorced me and your third mother, leaving only your mother and your brother.
Now, because of what happened to your brother, our whole family can only hide in Hong Kong. It is reasonable for you to take responsibility!!! Make a contribution to this family!!!"
The person who spoke was Luo Zhenhua's second wife, who was also the first to arrive in Gangcheng and return to Luo Zhenhua.
Another younger male voice said, "Second brother and second mother are right. Little sister, you can't be too selfish. You can't just think about yourself, you have to think about your family too."
"What kind of place is Gangcheng? There are many hidden talents here. Do you really expect Zhang Shenfei to help you? How long has it been since you sent the letter? Did you receive a reply? Girls, don't always have unrealistic dreams. People have had enough of you and are looking for a chance to dump you." It was another female voice that Zhang Shenfei had never heard of before. Zhang Shenfei guessed that the voice should be Lou Xiao'e's third mother.
Lou Xiaojun then shouted angrily: "Xiao E, wake up!!! He must have abandoned you, why are you still waiting for him?"
Why do you involve me? Zhang Shenfei paused, his hand already twisted on the door handle, but stopped.
He wanted to hear what these people in there were doing.
The roaring and seductive voices of the two men and two women continued to come. Finally, the one who called out "little sister" said:
"Dad, mom, why don't you two express your opinions?
I haven't seen my second brother, mother, stepmother and younger sister for many years. She has become estranged from us and is unwilling to talk to us when she has something on her mind.
But you have been supporting each other in the city for so many years. If you agree, I will definitely agree to meet Zhao Da Diao for tea."
Zhao Da Diao? ? A single man and a single woman meeting for tea? ? Zhang Shenfei raised his eyebrows, as if he had guessed something.
It seems that someone has set his sights on his woman.
I just don't know whether the two brothers of the Lou family want to take the initiative to ask their sister for glory.
It was the so-called Zhao Dadiao who first fell in love with Lou Xiao'e and forced their family to give up their daughter.
Although Zhang Shenfei cannot forgive the other party in either situation, he still needs to find out the truth first.
Just as Zhang Shenfei guessed, the next moment he heard Lou Zhenhua's voice coming from the room:
“Before we arrived in Hong Kong, I had promised Zhang Shenfei that he and Moth would be together forever.
The most important thing for us businessmen is integrity, so I support Ezi's decision."
It's not that he felt sorry for his daughter, but Lou Zhenhua still felt a little scared when he thought of Zhang Shenfei's power when he escaped from Sijiu City.
The family traveled from the old city to the port city, and the journey was not as dangerous as they had imagined. On the contrary, it was peaceful.
However, the calmer he was, the more nervous he became, because this meant that Zhang Shenfei's power might be far stronger than he imagined.
Obviously, there were dangers everywhere, but Zhang Shenfei was able to carve out a smooth path in the middle. What did this prove? ? ?
He knew that Zhang Shenfei also had influence in Hong Kong. If he rashly offered Lou Xiao'e away because of some difficulties, what would happen if Zhang Shenfei came to Hong Kong to settle old scores?
He couldn't imagine...
"But Dad, if you don't agree to the other party, our family's business in Hong Kong City will not be able to continue!!!" The slightly sharp boy thought again.
"Do you want to destroy the legacy of several generations of our family on your own? "
The hat was too big, and Lou Zhenhua fell silent.
"Don't be angry, things may turn around. How about we sit down and have a good discussion?" Tan Yali's voice was a bit flattering and tentative, "Ezi is not the only daughter in our family. Xiaojun, didn't your sister Xiaorong just get divorced?"
Oh, this is because he can’t bear to part with his own daughter! !
Lou Xiaojun smiled sarcastically: "How could it be said that you are the smartest, Fourth Mother? When there is something beneficial, you always pounce on it like a fly sucking blood.
When it comes time to make a contribution, they start to make excuses and let others take the lead.
It's a pity that you can't get what you want this time. Zhao Da Diao specifically said that he liked Luo Xiao'e...
He doesn’t want anyone else!!”
"And Master and Fourth Sister, you always talk about how powerful Zhang Shenfei is. But I asked people to inquire in Gangcheng, and no one has ever heard of his name?" Lou Xiaojun's mother said again.
"So I wonder if he really has that kind of power in Sijiu City...
Taking advantage of your information gap, he made you think that he was just as powerful in Hong Kong City."
"Second mother, what are you talking about? Dafei is very capable. He is the silk decorator and Chen Xueru was able to open a store in Gangcheng thanks to him." Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but speak.
"Xiao'e, you reminded me of this. I actually asked someone to find out from the side... and found out that Chen Xueru is indeed married, but her man is not called Zhang Shenfei at all."
After Lou Xiao'e's mother finished speaking, she looked as if to say, "Look, you've really been cheated..."
"The person who helped to gather information told me that it was Xiaolong and Liu Xiaocao who had been helping Chen Xueru and keeping an eye on her," Lou Xiaojun also said.
"Xiaolong and Liu Xiaocao belong to Dafei. Dafei told me to go to them if I have any problems." Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but get angry when she said this, "I told them a long time ago that I would go to them to solve this matter.
That Zhao Da Diao is not a good person, and He Xiaolong is not a pushover either. He will definitely be able to help our family solve this problem."
When his family was threatened, his first reaction was to ask Liu Xiaocao and Xiaolong for help, but his two brothers refused to allow it.
She even didn't agree with him meeting Chen Xueru!!!
Lou Xiao'e firmly believed that if Chen Xueru and Xiaolong knew her situation, they would definitely not ignore it.
Da Fei is not in Hong Kong City, these people can definitely protect themselves! !
"I've made up my mind. Tomorrow I'm going to find Chen Xinru and ask him to take me to find Xiaolong.
What Zhao Da Diao? Don’t even think about me marrying him!!”
