Chapter 159 Auspicious Days
Today is an auspicious day, suitable for opening a business and accumulating wealth.
The newly renovated iron gate of Xiushan Industrial is covered with festive red silk ribbons.
On either side of the entrance, two strings of large red firecrackers, each capable of firing ten thousand shots, were stacked up like two small red mountains, making one's ears ring just by looking at them.
All the well-known shop owners and heads of various units in the county.
With smiles on their faces and gifts in hand, they personally came to offer their congratulations, crowding the small front yard of the factory.
"Oh my, Mr. Lu, congratulations! Congratulations!"
A fat man with a beer belly and a ruddy face squeezed forward. He was the purchasing manager of the county meat processing plant, and his surname was Qian.
"Your factory is truly... truly transformed! Impressive! Absolutely magnificent!"
Lu Qingshan changed out of his faded old jacket and put on a crisp navy blue Zhongshan suit, with the corners of the four pockets ironed without a single wrinkle.
He smiled and shook hands with Section Chief Qian, his grip neither too firm nor too loose.
"Section Chief Qian, you're too kind. We'll need your help with our factory's canteen procurement in the future."
Section Chief Qian quickly waved his hand and smiled.
"Please take care of me! I'll definitely take care of you! If you ask, Boss Lu, then you must receive the best treatment possible!"
His eyes darted around, then he looked at Lin Xiulan standing next to Lu Qingshan, and his eyes lit up.
"Sister-in-law, you look absolutely stunning today...tsk tsk, just like a model in a magazine! You're getting more and more like a boss lady! Aoyama, you're so lucky!"
Lin Xiulan styled her long hair into a neat bun at the back of her head, revealing her smooth forehead and delicate neck.
She was wearing a brand-new sky-blue polyester shirt, with the collar and cuffs starched white and crisp, making her look both energetic and elegant.
She was no longer the country girl who always kept her head down and blushed when she met people in the village.
Facing Section Chief Qian's slightly joking gaze, she simply nodded slightly, composed and unhurried.
A faint, formulaic smile graced his face, but his eyes remained as calm as a deep pool.
"Section Chief Qian, you're joking."
Her voice wasn't loud, but every word was clear.
"I'm just someone who keeps the accounts and does the math for the boss. You're a distinguished guest, please come inside and have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up."
She pointed to the inner room and gestured "please," showing no joy or shyness at the compliment.
That composed demeanor, neither humble nor arrogant, seemed like an invisible barrier.
Section Chief Qian swallowed back the joke he was about to make, and could only nod with a dry laugh: "Okay, okay, please come in, please come in."
Many business owners who had originally intended to join in and make some lighthearted jokes tactlessly kept quiet after seeing this scene.
They presented the congratulatory gift in a proper manner, addressing him as "Director Lu" and "Madam Lu".
Lin Xiulan's composure is not something she puts on.
It was through the accounts, negotiations, and nights of hard work after marriage that they truly settled down.
Lu Qingshan is working hard on the front lines, and she is also striving to grow.
As the auspicious time approached, two sharp and short car horns sounded outside the courtyard gate.
The voice was full of energy, completely different from the tractors and cars commonly seen in the county.
Everyone turned around to look at the same time.
One after the other, two brand-new jeeps, kicking up a cloud of dust, came to a steady stop at the gate amidst gasps of amazement.
This is not a car that just anyone can ride in.
The car door opened with a "bang," and walking at the front was none other than Wang Jianguo, the director of the Public Security Bureau, wearing a crisp police uniform with shimmering epaulets in the sunlight.
Behind him followed Li Aiguo, the director of Hongshi Forest Farm.
The old man specially changed into a nearly new Zhongshan suit today, which made him look particularly energetic.
What made everyone present even more uneasy and their breathing even more subdued was that behind Wang Jianguo were four policemen with ramrod straight postures!
His gaze, sharp as a knife, swept over everyone present.
The bosses who usually consider themselves "important" instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
Wang Jianguo didn't even look at anyone else and strode up to Lu Qingshan.
A large, fan-like hand slapped him on the shoulder with a loud "smack," the voice booming like thunder.
"Qingshan! You've got some serious skills! The opening of this new factory is more exciting than a county-wide conference! How could I not come and support you?"
He glanced around, his gaze sweeping over the faces of several businessmen whose expressions were clearly somewhat unnatural.
Then, pointing to the four expressionless detectives behind him, he half-jokingly shouted to everyone:
"Don't be nervous, everyone! The security situation in the county has become a little complicated lately. As the eldest brother, I'm afraid some people might be foolish enough to cause trouble for my brothers."
"So, I brought a few comrades along today to help Qingshan maintain order at the scene, and also to familiarize ourselves with the place! Everyone... should have no objections, right?"
Who dares to object? Who dares to utter a single word of "no"?
Those who originally wanted to watch the show, or even harbored some jealousy, wondering how long Lu Qingshan's glory would last.
Cold sweat trickled down my back.
This Lu Qingshan is not just someone who is rich!
His connections in the legitimate world are so strong that even the police chief personally came with a gun to support him!
This is a unique achievement in the entire county!
Just as everyone was lost in their own thoughts and their cold sweat hadn't even dried, a slightly hoarse but powerful laugh came from the outer edge of the crowd.
"Brother Lu! Congratulations on your grand opening! How could I not come and have a drink with you?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man with a black leather jacket, a lean build, and a buzz cut walk in, pushing through the crowd.
He wore a warm smile, but his eyes held a fierce glint that made people afraid to look him in the eye. A heavy string of beads dangled from his wrist, and he walked with a powerful stride.
Someone in the crowd immediately gasped and exclaimed, "Li...Li Yama!"
The moment those three words were uttered, the temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees.
Li Yanwang, whose real name is Li Kui, is the most powerful figure in the "underground" world in this county and even several surrounding counties. He has a group of ruthless people under his command.
It is a truly terrifying presence that makes small vendors tremble with fear.
However, this legendary "King Yama" was all smiles as he strode up to Lu Qingshan.
Without saying a word, he first gave him a big bear hug and patted his back warmly.
"Brother, congratulations! Congratulations!"
Li Yanwang had a loud voice. He pulled out a bulging, extra-large red envelope from the inside pocket of his leather jacket. Judging by its thickness, it must have been worth at least four figures.
Without a word, he shoved the item into Lu Qingshan's arms, laughing heartily, "It's just a small token, to buy your sister-in-law some new clothes! Don't think it's too little!"
Lu Qingshan readily accepted, nodding with a smile: "Brother Li, you're too kind. Your presence is the greatest honor you can bestow upon me."
Lu Qingshan knew that this was Li Yanwang giving him the factory and house that Yu Bo had compensated him with, and that everything had been taken care of.
He accepted it without hesitation.
boom!
If Wang Jianguo's appearance just now shocked everyone, it was because Lu Qingshan had a powerful official backer.
The appearance of Li Yanwang was like a bomb being thrown into a pot of boiling oil!
This...this is practically having connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles!
In an instant, everyone's gaze toward Lu Qingshan changed.
Shock, horror, fear... all of it eventually turned into deep awe.
The police chief arrived with a gun to support him, and then the notorious underworld figure Yama came to give him money and congratulate him, all while looking extremely grateful.
Just who is this Lu Qingshan?!
Many people's legs began to tremble, secretly glad that they hadn't gossiped earlier.
Section Chief Qian's back was soaked with sweat. He recalled that he had just wanted to joke with Lin Xiulan. It was like he was on the verge of death!
Li Aiguo walked forward with a smile, his appearance diluting the chilling atmosphere brought by Li Yanwang.
He waved his hand, and someone carried a large, gilded glass mirror, at least two meters wide, down from the roof of the car.
The mirror has an impressive mahogany frame, and the eight large, elegant characters "May your business prosper and your ambitions unfold" are embossed in gold powder on its surface, gleaming in the sunlight.
"Green hills, beautiful orchids,"
Li Aiguo looked at the two of them, his eyes filled with the joy and affection of an elder seeing his juniors succeed.
"I'm just an old man, I don't have much to give. Have your aunt have someone specially order this mirror from the city. As this factory grows bigger, you two, standing in front of this mirror, must always remember to walk upright and act with integrity!"
Lu Qingshan's nose tingled, his expression immediately turned solemn, and he bowed deeply to Li Aiguo.
"Thank you, Uncle Li! Don't worry!"
He immediately called for help and carefully hung the large mirror on the most conspicuous wall in the lobby on the first floor, directly opposite the entrance.
Li Aiguo then pulled Lin Xiulan aside, took a cloth bag from his pocket, and stuffed it into her hand.
"Xiulan, these are some medicinal herbs that I asked your aunt to prepare for you to nourish your body. There are ginseng and astragalus."
"Now you not only have to take care of your family, but also manage such a large factory. It's even more tiring than Qingshan's job. You absolutely can't let yourself ruin your health, you hear me?"
Lin Xiulan's eyes welled up with tears. She clutched the cloth bag tightly and nodded heavily. "Yes, I've got it. Thank you, Uncle Li. Thank you, Auntie."
Li Aiguo nodded with satisfaction, then began to chatter on like an elder in his family.
"You need to be healthy before you can have a baby. You and Qingshan have been married for quite a while now, almost half a year."
Lin Xiulan, who had been calm and composed just moments before, blushed with embarrassment.
……
A few hundred meters away from the factory area, behind a sloping hill, in the grass, a tall, thin man with only one eye showing was visible.
He was holding a Soviet-made military binoculars, staring intently at the bustling scene at the factory gate.
His name is Chen Pi, and he is Lei's fastest and most ruthless knife.
"Oh shit!"
He put down his binoculars, spat fiercely, and cursed through gritted teeth.
"That Lu Qingshan is as slippery as an eel! He's either hiding in the forest or holed up in the factory, always surrounded by a bunch of people, never alone! We've been feeding on mosquitoes here for three days straight!"
He turned around and complained to Lei Dong, who was leaning against a crooked tree, slowly smoking.
"Boss, did you see that clearly? The cops are here, and they're the leaders! They brought all their weapons, real ones! I saw those guys with their hands on the triggers, they're veterans!"
Chen Pi scratched his hair in frustration.
"With that good-for-nothing Yu Bo arrested, the batch of ginseng he had will most likely fall into Lu Qingshan's hands!"
"But given the current situation, forget about robbing him, we can barely even get close to him! This guy surnamed Lu has connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles! Boss, we probably really won't have a chance to make a move in the city!"
