Back to the prime of life

Chapter 65 First Contact
Before going to bed at night, Lu Changge thought about it and decided to find a reasonable reason for buying the factory at that time.

If Zhou Chunjin hadn't caused this commotion, few people would have known about it and the matter would have just passed.

But plans cannot keep up with changes, and now that things have come to this, we have to deal with it.

The statement in the newspaper was just something he made up to fool people, but if he found Xu Weiguo about this matter, he would not say that.

But this reason is hard to find. The key is to trace back to where the 5 came from.

How can a poor student come up with so much money?
After thinking about it carefully, I decided not to talk about the stock matter. It just so happened that Xu Qiuxue mentioned that she had made some money during the Chinese New Year, so it was a blind cat catching a dead mouse.

As for knowing where the demolition was taking place, it may have to be fabricated.

First of all, it is impossible for him to meet someone in his life who can know the demolition scope in advance. Otherwise, what if Xu Weiguo asked to meet this person?
And if it doesn’t exist in reality, then it can only be found online.

Lu Changge lay on the bed with his eyes wide open, not feeling sleepy at all. At a certain moment, he thought of a way out: Internet users?
I made up a story about someone online and said it was revealed during a discussion on a forum. I didn't have enough social experience, so I just believed it.

It's basically possible. The main reason is that the netizens' statements are difficult to disprove. He can choose not to believe it, but he has no other choice.

In fact, if he wanted to avoid this trouble, he could just bite the bullet and find that person through Chen Rong. Although it would take some effort, he probably could get it done.

But he prefers that this matter can help Xu Weiguo.

Because this matter is actually very simple, at least it is not illegal or against regulations,

To put it bluntly, it's that guy named Xie who does things based on the person. Once the person is important enough, the funding process will quickly return to normal.

Therefore, Xu Weiguo will not feel any pressure and only needs to use his identity to save face.

In this way, he can connect with Xu Weiguo smoothly, and other things that happen later will not be so abrupt.

In life, some people are always worried about bothering others, so they try to look for them as little as possible.

In fact, it is not like that. Your fear of bothering others has nothing to do with the number of times, but has to do with your value of not letting others bother you.

The next morning, Lu Changge went to class first. During the class, Zuo Shuya sent him a message saying that Chen Rong had reported the matter. The leader said he knew about it, but there was no other reaction.

According to the previous plan, they waited.

Well, it’s just a few days away anyway, and he just needs some time to prepare.

Later, the person Zhou Chunjin asked came over. She was a middle-aged woman.

Lu Changge originally thought it would be a lawyer, but unexpectedly it was Zhou Chunjin's ex-wife, Pan Qin.

They say husband and wife are birds of a feather, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately. But at this critical moment, it was still his wife who came to plead for him.

She came at the right time. Through her, Lu Changge learned more about the relationship between Zhou Chunjin and Xie Zhenqi. Pan Qin was a simple woman and she came to ask for help, so she said whatever she wanted.

According to her, her ex-husband had no chance of becoming the deputy mayor. He was just a tyrant, a troublemaker, and a shameless person, or he would petition the government.

This corresponds to what Chen Rong said: everyone dislikes him.

As for the issue of obstructing the allocation of demolition funds, she also completely softened her attitude and said that she could go to the deputy mayor to plead for mercy.

But Lu Changge refused. He just wanted Pan Qin to go to Zhou Chunjin to ask for a letter of guarantee.

As for whether it should be civil compensation or prosecution, Zuo Shuya's attitude is to at least wait until the issue of demolition compensation is resolved.

Then, Lu Changge prepared to find Xu Weiguo.

Before leaving, Zuo Shuya said worriedly, "Why don't you wait a little longer? Don't make a decision too hastily. Maybe Rongrong will have some news tomorrow."

"It's okay. I just met an elder during the Chinese New Year. He holds some position in Jiangzhou. I was wondering how I would have my first encounter with such a person. Now it seems like this is my chance."

This sentence is too mature. If Zuo Shuya did not have rich work experience, she would actually find it difficult to understand.

"Chance?"

"Well, this isn't particularly difficult, and is suitable for a first contact."

But he was not in a hurry to go in the afternoon, so he decided to wait until tomorrow, Saturday.

The next day, he got up early, put on black jeans and a dark gray jacket, trying his best to look less like a college student.

He didn't call his grandfather, because he would have had to explain to him what was going on with the factory. Besides, he wasn't a real child, and didn't have the mentality of relying on his parents. He was more used to doing everything on his own.

At about 9 o'clock in the morning, he got on the No. 22 bus. Halfway through the bus, he called Xu Weiguo.

It’s not a good idea to show up suddenly, in case they have other things to do or have guests.

After the call was connected, we agreed to meet at his house at 10 o'clock.

This time point was chosen intentionally.
Too early, obviously inappropriate,
It’s too close to noon. Should they invite you to have dinner with them, or should they not?
As for Xu Weiguo, he was certainly surprised to receive the call, but because of Lu Changge's grandfather, he would at least maintain a deliberate enthusiasm and superficial politeness.

No one knows who will be needed in the future.

No one will offend the truly slick people easily, especially those who have no conflicts of interest.

Xu Weiguo got up from the bed, walked into the living room, and said to his wife who was hanging clothes, "Minxia, do you remember Lu Changge who came last time?"

"Remember, your fellow villager."

"He came over right away and said he wanted to see me."

"He wants to see you for something?" Mrs. Xu was still quite shocked. She chuckled and said, "What does he want to see you for? Is it his parents who want to see you for something?"

"It was him, but he didn't say anything specific." Xu Weiguo turned around and began to change his clothes. He raised his voice a little in the room and said, "His grandfather just got my cousin Xiaolei enrolled in school. It's not easy to talk to me now. Anyway, come to my study later and I'll talk to him. This kid seems a little different from the others."

"Would you like to eat here at noon? If so, I have to prepare it in advance. We are out of vegetables at home."

"Let's make some preparations. But I don't think he will stay." Xu Weiguo patted his stomach and thought for a while.

In fact, Lu Changge arrived at the community before 10 o'clock. Bored, he chatted with the old security guard at the door for a while.

Anyway, it was just about buying a pack of cigarettes at the small supermarket next door, and he was talking to a few doormen, and then he started to talk nonsense, like where are you from, how many years have you been in Jiangzhou, etc.

These people are all very outgoing and can chat with anyone.

Don't think they are insignificant. If one day, Lu Changge wants to take the drunk Xu Weiguo home, when he gets off the taxi and reaches the gate of the community, he can at least call out "Uncle" for help.

Lu Changge was not like this when he just graduated from college, but he no longer remembers himself back then.

As for the doorman, he himself knew a little story. He was also his former friend. One night, this guy was eating and drinking outside, but he didn't drink much, and then drove home drunk.

I drove all the way back and when I reached the gate of the community, I hit a lamppost inside the community.

Then the community security guard ignored everything and called the police.

This is why slick people don't offend anyone. Life is unpredictable. Don't always think you are so awesome that you look down on others. Give people a smile and you won't lose anything.

Before leaving, Lu Changge simply stuffed the remaining cigarettes into the message room since he didn't smoke anyway.

The two old men were so happy that they couldn't wait to have another chat with him.

This time, Lu Changge's visit was not just to get a few salted duck eggs as last time. He brought a box of well-packaged Biluochun tea, which of course contained more than just tea.

You can tell what kind of person Xu Weiguo is at first glance.

He didn't say anything, just waved and took him directly to the study.

Soon, he came out after twenty minutes.

Mrs. Xu wanted to keep him, but Lu Changge politely declined.

Xu Weiguo instructed, "Let me ask for you first. There are many reasons for an incident, and it may not be what you think. Of course, if it turns out to be because of that person, I will find a solution."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Xu."

After saying that, Lu Changge left.

It was done very quickly, in less than half an hour, leaving Mrs. Xu puzzled. "Did he really ask you to do something for him?"

Xu Weiguo did not directly answer her question, but said, "This kid is not simple."
