Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

After Xu Damao left, Tang Yanling and the others set their sights on Liu Guangtian.

"Uncle Guangtian, who is this Director Li that Uncle Xu mentioned?"

Liu Guangtian turned and glanced at Banggeng, who looked at him with some confusion.

"Director Li used to be the head of the steel rolling mill. Brother Zhu and Xu Damao were his subordinates."

They have a very good relationship.

Tang Yanling asked, "So, my mother knew Director Li before?"

“Yes, we know each other. Sister Qin not only knows Director Li, but she’s also very familiar with him.” Liu Guangtian’s words carried a hint of mystery.

His words piqued everyone's curiosity.

However, he didn't explain further, which made everyone feel uncomfortable.

"Bang Geng, have you heard Mom mention it?" Tang Yanling had no choice but to ask for help.

"I do not know."

Bang Geng's tone wasn't very nice.

He was actually quite old back then, and he had heard about those rumors.

When he was a child, he thought others were slandering Qin Huairu, but now that he's grown up, he knows it wasn't slander.

But as a son, he simply couldn't bring himself to say such a thing.

Tang Yanling wasn't stupid; she could tell from Bang Geng's attitude that there must be something more to it.

Considering Qin Huairu's character, Tang Yanling felt she had guessed the truth.

She was too embarrassed to ask any further questions.

Xu Damao specifically brought out this wine, which was also meant to show off.

He's always been a show-off.

Previously, when I was Li Huaide's subordinate, I had to live my life according to Li Huaide's mood.

Things are different now. He's a wealthy man now and has the right to be on equal footing with Li Huaide.

Xu Damao naturally wanted to show off.

"Director Li, I'm sorry for the delay. I went to He Yuzhu's office to get a bottle of good wine."

Li Huaide had already seen the liquor in Xu Damao's hand and recognized it as a special-supply Moutai.

"Was this wine brewed by Zhu Zi himself, or...?"

Xu Damao put the wine on the table: "How could I not know Director Li's preferences?"

This is the wine He Yuzhu gave to his father-in-law.

Li Huaide's eyes lit up as he walked to the table, picked up the wine, and began to examine it intently.

He saw the mark of the bottle opening being opened and then resealed.

"Great! It's been eight years and two hundred and seventy-eight days since I last had this wine."

Xu Damao was taken aback: "You remember it so clearly?"

Li Huaide held the wine reluctantly, saying, "Of course. Before leaving, I asked Zhu Zi for ten bottles of wine; I usually cherish them very much."

Unfortunately, there are just too few.

I remember the exact day I finished the last bottle.

Xu Damao: "..." He didn't expect that Li Huaide would value this wine so much.

"Let's stop talking and sit down."

Li Huaide smiled and said, "Yes, let's sit down first."

Soon, the waiter brought out all the dishes.

Xu Damao said, "Director Li, let's have a drink."

Li Huaide then came to his senses and picked up the wine bottle: "Let me pour you a glass."

"Let's get this straight, don't bring three adults and one child this time."

Xu Damao was slightly embarrassed: "That was all because I was young and ignorant. Why do you still remember it?"

After pouring three glasses, Li Huaide put the bottle back on.

"I'll take the rest of the wine home and drink it slowly."

Xu Damao said with a smile, "I understand now. You didn't let me come with three adults and one child because you couldn't bear to part with all this wine."

Li Huaide readily admitted, "I just can't bear to part with it. You and Zhuzi are close, so you can drink with him all the time, and I'm really craving it."

Xu Damao had no way of knowing what Li Huaide was thinking. In his opinion, He Yuzhu's wine was no big deal.

If those leaders knew about his idea, they would definitely teach him a lesson about how to behave.

The medicinal wine brewed by He Yuzhu himself is extremely rare and hard to find outside.

No more than one hundred people nationwide have received this liquor. Many people only have a quota of two bottles per year.

"When He Yuzhu comes back, have him send you a few bottles."

Li Huaide wasn't as ignorant as Xu Damao. He knew very well how precious this wine was.

His current status is different from before; it's uncertain whether He Yuzhu will give him face.

"Let's talk about it when Zhuzi gets back. Xu Damao, you look like you've struck it rich."

Xu Damao laughed and said, "What wealth? Just making a living."

Don't you know what I'm capable of?

It was precisely because Li Huaide understood Xu Damao and still viewed him with the same old perspective that he underestimated Xu Damao.

Li Huaide felt that even if Xu Damao made money, he wouldn't become extremely wealthy.

Li Huaide gave You Fengxia a wink, signaling her to proceed according to plan.

You Fengxia understood and said with a smile, "Boss Xu, your outfit doesn't look like you've made a small fortune."

Xu Damao was somewhat mesmerized when he saw You Fengxia, who still retained her charm.

Having lived in Hong Kong, Yu Fengxia's every move exuded a far greater allure than those of Tang Yanling and her two naive friends.

Xu Damao stared lecherously at You Fengxia's exposed breasts: "Miss You, you flatter me."

Director Li knows my capabilities very well; I'm only good at small-scale operations.

I still don't know where Director Li is working.

Li Huaide explained with a smile, "I just do a small foreign trade business."

You Fengxia smiled charmingly: "President Li's business is quite large. He has tens of millions of yuan in foreign trade every year. How many people have that kind of strength?"

Xu Damao is no longer the same naive man he once was. He has known quite a few wealthy people through his association with He Yuzhu.

A business worth tens of millions is indeed a big business, but it's nothing special.

However, he still went along with Li Huaide and the other person, saying, "So amazing?"
I work myself to the bone on construction projects, and I only earn about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a year.

Director Li is truly remarkable.

I'll raise a glass to you. If you ever have the chance to make a fortune, don't forget to look after us old subordinates.

You Fengxia smiled and said, "That's easy. Mr. Li and I came to Beijing this time to look for sales channels, we..."

Li Huaide suddenly interrupted You Fengxia: "Today I'm reuniting with Xu Damao, let's not talk about money."

You Fengxia chimed in, "Director Li is right. It's my fault for mentioning money; it's too vulgar. I'll punish myself with a drink."

You Fengxia took a small sip, and her eyes lit up.

"This wine..."

Li Huaide smiled and said, "Now you know why I've been eyeing this bottle of wine."

You Fengxia nodded: "It's not like I haven't drunk Moutai before, but this bottle of wine tastes quite different from Moutai."

Is this specially supplied Moutai really that different from the regular Moutai?

Xu Damao said, "The difference between special supply Moutai and regular Moutai is not that big."

The reason this wine tastes so good is because it was made into a medicinal wine.

You Fengxia looked at Li Huaide.

Li Huaide said, "That's why this wine tastes so good."

Special-supply Moutai is available to many people across the country. But the special-supply Moutai produced here by Zhu Zi is available to very few people nationwide.

You Fengxia didn't care about any of that; in her heart, she had already begun to think about how to make money from medicinal wine.

"Since Mr. He has such a good secret recipe, why didn't you think of using it to produce medicinal wine?"

Xu Damao explained, "Even if it's produced, how many people can afford to drink it?"

Besides, the medicinal herbs needed to make medicinal wine are limited. Mass production is impossible.

After hearing Xu Damao's explanation, You Fengxia looked regretful.

If it could be mass-produced, it would definitely make a lot of money.

Next, You Fengxia focused entirely on He Yuzhu. She wanted to find out just how legendary He Yuzhu was. (End of Chapter)
