Chapter 464 463. Uncle's Family

Du Chuan didn't expect that the faster progress of the construction project was due to this reason.

The units he is in contact with now are all performing very well. Even his old unit, the machinery factory, was able to improve its production lines and technology because of the foreign exchange Du Chuan had loaned them before.

So even until now, the unit's performance has been very good. As for the situation of triangular debts, he doesn't know anything about it.

This was not something he could control. Du Chuan only vaguely remembered that the triangular debt was something that had to be cleared up in the end. The country was determined to clear it up, and it took a lot of time to complete it.

This has also led to the restructuring of many units or even their direct abolition.

However, this would not begin until the late 1980s and early 1990s.

"Those students are willing to work on the construction site? This is really strange." Du Chuan said.

Even though most of today's students have experienced hardships, after attending technical secondary schools and junior colleges, basically very few of them would lower their dignity to do odd jobs on construction sites.

Ji Xuetao smiled and said, "No, only a small number, mainly some workers who were forced to retire early by their companies."

"Most of these people are in their 40s or 50s. Although they are older, they are still able to do the work, and most of them have some skills."

Well, Du Chuan understood a little bit.

Originally, Du Chuan thought that what he and Ji Xuetao talked about were just small talk. After all, such a trend was not something he could participate in or change.

As for affecting him, it is even less likely. After all, his situation is there. He is not the richest man in the country for nothing.

Moreover, Du Chuan estimated that with the continued growth of his current apparent assets and some future plans, he might continue to be the richest man.

I just didn't expect that this incident would really affect him.

That day, his grandfather called and asked him to go to their house.

This surprised Du Chuan a little. His grandfather rarely called them over specifically because he knew they were busy.

So generally things rarely bother them.

Du Chuan first came to the old house, picked up his parents and eldest brother, and then drove over.

"Dad, is there something wrong with grandpa?" Du Chuan asked.

Father Du said, "Your uncle and his family are back."

Du Chuan said, "Is that so? Uncle and his family haven't been back for many years, right? How come they suddenly came back at such an unusual time of year, and the whole family came back?"

Father Du replied: "I don't know the specific situation, but it seems that the situation over there with your uncle is not very good. That's why they haven't come back in all these years."

Du Chuan understood a little bit after hearing this. This might be related to what Ji Xuetao said before.

When they arrived at grandpa's house, Du Chuan and his friends went in carrying large and small bags of things.

Uncle Du Houmin, aunt Ge Xiaofang, cousin Du Chengjun, cousin Du Mingliang, and cousin Du Dan were all sitting inside. When they saw them coming, they stood up quickly.

Not only were they here, but even the younger sister-in-law Du Yuehua was here. It was obvious that the family was holding a meeting.

Du Chuan greeted everyone one by one, and then found a bench and sat down obediently.

When the adults are at home, Du Chuan's right to speak is infinitely reduced, and his main task is to listen.

Du Chuan could see that the uncle's family looked very haggard, and even had some paleness on their faces. It was obvious that they had been living a very ordinary life during this period, or even the past two years. Soon, grandma and aunt prepared the meal and brought it over.

After eating a few bites, grandpa changed the subject.

"You all know what happened. Houmin was laid off early by his company. His eldest brother Chengjun lost his job because of speculation. Mingliang and Xiaodan just graduated and encountered some accidents when they were assigned jobs. They are also temporarily unemployed."

As soon as Grandpa finished speaking, Du Qixi asked curiously: "What's the situation in your Su City? Why are you still arresting people for doing business?"

Cousin Du Chengjun remained silent, but uncle Du Houmin sighed and said, "We don't really care about this. It's mainly because Chengjun is a regular employee of the company and he has made some of the company's products and is selling them."

"I was reported by someone, and then I lost my job."

Du Chuan didn't quite understand, "What exactly is going on?"

Is this stealing the company's products, or is there some other reason?
"It's not what you think. Those products were originally the company's inventory. Your cousin bought them at a low price and then sold them himself." said the uncle.

"It's mainly because our family has been having a hard time in the past two years, and your cousin couldn't bear it, so... hey!"

Du Chuan understood that if this was the case, this could really be considered speculation.

And according to some of the things he talked about with Ji Xuetao yesterday, although the higher-ups have already expressed their attitude of supporting the development of individual businesses.

But the implementation is different in each city.

For someone like Du Chengjun, perhaps nothing will happen when no one pursues the matter, but once someone pursues the matter, it will become a handle against him.

Now that each unit is short of staff, some people have thought of getting rid of a regular worker, so that a position will be vacant, right?
Such incidents have been quite common in recent times, causing many units to be in a state of panic.

Grandpa saw that Du Houmin had explained everything clearly, and then said: "The situation at Houmin's home is a bit difficult now, so I was wondering if you could help."

He first looked at Du Qixi, "Old man, speak up."

After all, Du Qixi has always been by his side, and he is the one who has benefited the most from the family.

At this time, grandpa was also making his attitude clear. He would not favor anyone, nor would he deliberately let anyone suffer a loss.

In fact, Grandpa knew that Du Chuan was very capable and rich, and as long as he asked, Du Chuan would not refuse.

But he didn't want to burden the younger generation with the affairs of the older generation.

Du Qixi smiled and said, "Dad, this is easy to solve. If nothing else, my company is short of manpower. You can just go to my company when the time comes."

"The salary must be high."

He looked at Du Houmin and said, "Brother, you don't have to worry about money, but we really can't help you with the establishment."

"Now there is no one in our family who has a permanent job, even my second brother has retired."

This is a precautionary measure. Although he believes that his elder brother Du Houmin will not have such a request, it is inevitable that his aunt or others will have such an idea.

Du Qixi knew that Du Chuan was actually capable of solving the problem, but from the very beginning, Du Chuan didn't even make arrangements for the staffing of Du Yuan and Jiao Lanhua, which showed Du Chuan's attitude.

He also didn't want to bring the matter to Du Chuan and make things difficult for him. At this time, he, as his uncle, needed to stand up and express his position.
