Li Dong said that he was not in a hurry. Anyway, Yuan Xue's parents would not starve to death.
But when he returned to the company, Li Dong could not sit still.
Now that Yuan Xue had returned to China, he did not know if her studies had been delayed. Moreover, when Yuan Xue left, she was still very sad.
Now that he knew that the Yuan Family was in trouble, he could not just stand by and watch.
After hesitating for a while, Li Dong finally called a few of the company's top executives for a small meeting. After giving instructions on the matter at hand, Li Dong prepared to go back to Dongping.
As he was about to leave, Liu Qi had to whisper, "General Manager Li, Director Yuan is now in Lu Province, and President Shen is also on vacation. If you leave …"
Li Dong frowned and said, "Just a few days. I will be back soon. So far away, can't you even hold on for a few days? Are you all going to be doing nothing without me? "
Liu Qi looked embarrassed, but she still said, "General Manager Li, that's not what I meant. But do you think you should inform President Shen and ask her to come back? "
"No need!"
Li Dong immediately rejected this suggestion. If Shen Qian came back, it would be even more troublesome.
The reason why he went alone was that he wanted to solve the Yuan Family's problem, and he also wanted to see Yuan Xue.
If Shen Qian knew about this, a woman would not care if you knew her first when she got jealous.
…
On the morning of the 19th, Li Dong rushed back to Dongping.
This time, he was very low-key. He did not even drive his own Maybach. Instead, he changed to an Audi from the company.
There were not many people accompanying him, only Zhou Haidong and Tan Yong.
These two guys knew about Yuan Xue, and they were tight-lipped. Li Dong was not afraid that they would tell others.
When he arrived in Dongping, Li Dong was a little hesitant.
How should he help the Yuan Family?
Should he just go over and pay?
But it seemed a little inappropriate. He knew Yuan Xue's character. If he gave her money directly, she would most likely refuse.
Li Dong thought for a moment and asked Zhou Haidong, "Old Zhou, help me think of a way to deal with this …"
Li Dong briefly explained the situation. Zhou Haidong was confused and said, "General Manager Li, can't you just pay off the debt yourself?"
Li Dong snappily said, "Nonsense, how would I know who they owe money to. Besides, if I were to directly help pay off the debt, wouldn't that not show off my brilliance? "
Zhou Haidong tried to hold back his laughter. Tan Yong, who was next to him, also tried to hold back his laughter and said, "General Manager Li, I think I understand what you mean. You don't want to throw in money directly. It will seem too rough, right?"
"Yes, that's the logic. Old Tan knows me well. Old Zhou, read more books. Look at you. You are the Director of a department, and yet you are getting worse. "
Zhou Haidong wanted to cry. In the end, he was just flirting with a girl. Why did he have so many things to say?
But since Li Dong liked it, Zhou Haidong could only say, "This is actually simple. General Manager Li, you don't want to throw in money directly, right? Then don't throw in money. The Yuan Family is in the clothing industry. Even if the furs in their hands were cheated, they are still here.
Our supermarket also has a clothing counter, and you can help sell them.
Although it is weasel fur, weasel fur is quite valuable. The Yuan Family can't sell it because they don't have the channels.
We have so many supermarkets, and even if we sell a few in each supermarket, they will be sold out.
300 pieces of furs, and each piece is sold for 1,000 RMB. That's 300,000 RMB worth. 1,000 RMB is still acceptable.
If 300,000 RMB is not enough, you can add more to cover the debt. The Yuan Family doesn't know how much each piece is worth. "
Hearing that, Li Dong laughed and said, "Not bad, you're finally enlightened. I was thinking the same thing just now."
Zhou Haidong smiled bitterly. But since his boss said so, he had nothing to say.
After discussing the plan, Li Dong looked at the time. "Let's not go to the clothing store. Let's go to the Yuan Family and talk to Old Yuan about the cooperation. Old Yuan is now troubled. Say, if I help him deal with the fur hides and get back some of his capital, won't he be grateful to me? "
"Definitely!"
"Then, when Old Yuan recovers, will Yuan Xue be grateful to me?"
"Absolutely!"
"If Yuan Xue is grateful to me, will it be better than me throwing money at her?"
"Without a doubt!"
The corner of Li Dong's mouth twitched. "Where did you learn all this from? Next time, just say no!"
Zhou Haidong smiled. His boss became difficult to deal with when it came to women. Next time, it's better to stay away from women.
…
Yuan Family.
Originally, Yuan Xue's parents lived in Qingyang. Ever since Yuan Xue went to university, they rarely returned to Dongping.
But because they were cheated last time, they used their house in Qingyang to pay off the debt.
Since they had no house in Qingyang, and there were too many troubles in Qingyang, they chose to go back to Dongping to recuperate.
Li Dong knew Yuan Xue's house, but he had never visited before.
This time, it was Li Dong's first time visiting.
Outside the door, Li Dong adjusted his clothes to make himself look more neat. Then, he knocked on the door.
He knocked for a long time, but there was no response from inside.
Just when Li Dong thought that Yuan Xue's parents were not at home, the door of a house next to him opened. A middle-aged woman opened the door and scolded, "It's annoying to ask for debts all day long! Old Yuan is not at home. If you want debts, go to his shop! Knocking on our door all day long, we can't live anymore! "
Li Dong was dumbfounded. Did he look like a debt collector?
When he saw the middle-aged woman looking at Zhou Haidong and Tan Yong behind him with vigilance, Li Dong suddenly came to his senses. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Auntie, don't misunderstand. I'm not asking for debts. I'm Yuan Xue's classmate. I heard that something happened to her family, so I came to have a look. Auntie, are Uncle Yuan and the others not at home? "
Seeing that Li Dong was polite and young, the middle-aged woman stared at him for a while and muttered, "Old Yuan and his wife are downstairs. Their daughter should be in the shop. If you want to find her, go to the garden downstairs."
After saying this, the middle-aged woman closed the door with a bang.
Li Dong was a little speechless. He didn't want to argue with her, so he turned and walked downstairs.
As he walked, Li Dong said, "Don't follow me. Stay away from me. People will think that you are a debt collector. Don't scare them later."
Zhou Haidong and Tan Yong had no choice but to step back.
…
In the garden of the community.
At this time, there were not many people wandering in the garden. Although Li Dong didn't know Yuan Xue's parents, he could tell at a glance which of the people in the garden were Yuan Xue's parents.
Yuan Xue's mother looked very similar to Yuan Xue. Except that she was older, she must have been a beauty when she was young.
Yuan Xue's father also had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He must have been a handsome guy when he was young.
In addition, the couple had a sad look on their faces. They sat in the corner of the garden for a long time without saying a word. Needless to say, they were Yuan Xue's parents.
Li Dong strolled over. Seeing an outsider coming over, the couple raised their heads and glanced at him.
Seeing that it was a young man they didn't know, the couple lowered their heads and stared at the ground. No one knew what they were looking at.

Seeing this, Li Dong coughed. When the couple looked up again, Li Dong smiled and said, "Are you Uncle Yuan and Auntie Yuan?"
"Hello, uncle. I'm Yuan Xue's classmate. I heard that Yuan Xue came back, so I came to see her."
Hearing that he was their daughter's classmate, the couple was relieved. Then Yuan Zhongqing stood up and forced a smile. "Hello, hello. You are Xiaoxue's classmate. Look, Xiaoxue is not at home now. I will call her right away and ask her to come back."
Hearing that it was their daughter's classmate, the couple was relieved. Then Yuan Zhongqing got up and forced a smile. "Hello, you are Xiaoxue's classmate. Look, Xiaoxue is not at home now. I will call her right away and ask her to come back."
Yuan Xue's mother also said, "You see, there is no way to entertain you outside. Young man, let's go home and have a cup of water."
This was also an instinctive reaction after years of doing business. Otherwise, most parents would not have such a reaction when they saw their daughter's male classmate.
This was an instinctive reaction after years of doing business. Otherwise, most parents wouldn't have such a reaction when they saw their daughter's male classmate. Li Dong quickly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't be so polite, Uncle and Auntie.
Hearing Li Dong's words, Yuan Zhongqing hurriedly said, "How can I do that? We don't know when Xiaoxue will come back. I will call her."
Before Li Dong could stop him, Yuan Zhongqing's father was about to make a phone call.
However, Yuan Zhongqing's mother was a little embarrassed. She coughed softly and smiled awkwardly, "You didn't bring your phone down. I didn't bring mine either. Did you forget?"
Yuan Zhongqing reacted and his eyes showed a hint of sadness.
He did have a phone with him, but it was disconnected because he owed money.
It wasn't that he didn't have the money to pay the phone bill. It was mainly because his friends called to ask for money. It was okay to refuse once, but if he refused too many times, his friends would become enemies.
In the end, Yuan Zhongqing had no choice but to let the phone be disconnected.
Li Dong saw their little actions. Although he didn't know the inside story, Li Dong could roughly guess.
Seeing that they didn't call, Li Dong was relieved and sat down next to them. Li Dong smiled and said, "Uncle and Auntie, don't bother. I have nothing to do. The weather is good today, so I will sit for a while."
"Then …"
Yuan Zhongqing saw that Li Dong had already sat down, so he was too embarrassed to say anything.
However, he couldn't just sit and chat. Although Yuan Zhongqing wasn't in a good mood, he still took the initiative to start a conversation. "Young man, I forgot to ask your name just now. When did you and Xiaoxue go to high school?"
"My name is Li Dong, Yuan Xue's high school classmate."
"Li Dong?"
Yuan Zhongqing vaguely felt that he had heard of this name before, but he didn't think too much about it. He smiled lightly and said, "Classmate Li, you see, I really neglected you today. Why don't we go home and sit … "
"No need, no need …"
The two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while. Li Dong chatted with Yuan Zhongqing's father for a while and finally started a topic. "Uncle, why did Yuan Xue come back to China at this time? Is she on holiday overseas? "
Yuan Zhongqing and his mother were a little embarrassed. Yuan Zhongqing's mother quickly smiled and said, "No, it's just that Xiaoxue's father and I aren't feeling well. Our daughter is filial and wanted to come back to see us. We couldn't stop her."
"Oh, then Uncle and Auntie have to take care of themselves. I thought you weren't home today and forgot to bring a gift. Yuan Xue said that Uncle and Auntie's business is quite big and has been developing in Qingyang. I thought you weren't home. I'm really sorry. "
Li Dong kept leading the topic to the couple's business. The couple was afraid that their daughter's classmates would laugh at their daughter if they found out, so they could only accompany Li Dong to chat.
After chatting for a while, Li Dong said, "So Uncle and Auntie's business is quite big. By the way, Uncle, do you sell fur?"
At the mention of fur, the couple's expression changed slightly.
This was a pain in their hearts. Whoever said it would turn hostile.
But today, they were talking about their daughter's classmates, and the other party didn't know the inside story. The couple suppressed their anger. After a while, Yuan Zhongqing said in a muffled voice, "No!"
"Ah, that's a pity. It seems that this business is over."
"Business?" Yuan Zhongqing was a little puzzled at this time. "Xiao Li, you do business?"
"It's not me. It's our university. Jiangzhou University has been discussing some projects with a big supermarket recently. Last time, I heard from my tutor that the supermarket is going to build a special area for fur and wants to find some partners. I thought that Uncle and Auntie could give it a try since you're in the clothing business. If it's successful, the supermarket has hundreds of stores. If we can cooperate and help you distribute the goods, your business will be even bigger. "
Yuan Zhongqing's eyes suddenly lit up. He said hurriedly, "Xiao Li, is what you said true?"
"Of course."
"Which supermarket?"
"Faraway Supermarket. Uncle, have you heard of it?"
"Faraway Supermarket!" Yuan Zhongqing said quickly, "Of course I have. It's a supermarket built by people from Dongping. It's the largest supermarket in the province. Does Jiangzhou University really have a partnership with it?"
"Yes, but Uncle, you don't do fur. Let's not talk about this."
"Don't, Xiao Li. Let's talk …"
Yuan Zhongqing was a little anxious. He hurriedly asked Li Dong for details.
Yuan Zhongqing knew that Faraway Supermarket was opened by people from Dongping. However, he didn't know that Li Dong in front of him was the boss of Faraway Supermarket.
Li Dong also bet that he didn't know this. After all, not many people would care about who the boss of a business was.
There was a high chance that Yuan Xue wouldn't tell Yuan Zhongqing. As expected, when Li Dong told them his name and told them Faraway Supermarket, Yuan Zhongqing and his wife didn't respond at all.
Since the couple didn't know, Li Dong was happy to talk to them.
When Yuan Zhongqing embarrassedly mentioned that he still had 300 pieces of fur and asked Li Dong if he could help, Li Dong felt that his ability to talk had improved again.
Look, in the end, he took the initiative to talk about this. This was skill.
This was also the purpose of his visit. When Yuan Zhongqing took the initiative to mention it, Li Dong immediately smiled. "This is easy. I have dealt with Faraway Supermarket a few times. Their person in charge is very easy to talk to. 300 pieces of fur is actually not a lot. If we can open a special fur section in Faraway Supermarket in Longhua, I'm afraid we can sell them in one store. Uncle, I will help you contact them later. It shouldn't be a big problem. After all, Faraway Supermarket is also looking for partners. "
Yuan Zhongqing was a little nervous. "But I only have weasel fur here. Isn't this a little …"
"It's okay. In fact, this kind of low-grade fur is easier to sell. After all, if it's too expensive, people won't be willing to buy it. 300 pieces of low-grade fur can probably be sold in Pingchuan in no time. "
Yuan Zhongqing and his mother looked at each other. They couldn't believe it and felt a little uneasy.
Li Dong made it sound too simple. Last time, they were cheated. Once bitten, twice shy. Could it be that something bad was going to happen again?
Seeing the couple's expression, Li Dong pretended to be angry and said, "Uncle, Auntie, don't you believe that I have this ability? I have dealt with people from Faraway many times. If you don't believe me, then I can find someone from Faraway to show you. I know the manager of Faraway Supermarket in Dongping, and I also know people from Qingyang. Why don't I ask them to come over and talk to you? "
"Really!"
Yuan Zhongqing's mother exclaimed softly. She was a little surprised. Yuan Zhongqing hurriedly pulled her back and laughed dryly. "Xiao Li, don't misunderstand. That's not what we mean."
As he spoke, Yuan Zhongqing whispered, "But Xiao Li, uncle is also anxious. How about this, if you can really find someone from Faraway to help us negotiate this deal, I will give you a big red packet. How about that?"
Li Dong said unhappily, "What red packet? Uncle, aren't you looking down on me? Alright, I will help you settle this matter. It's just pulling some strings for you. I will call my teacher and contact people from Faraway. Oh right, uncle, do you know any leader from Faraway? As long as they are from Qingyang, I can find them for you. "
"Ahem, that, Xiao Li, if it's convenient for you, contact the manager of Dongping. I have met him a few times …" Yuan Zhongqing was a little embarrassed. He said again, "Xiao Li, if you really succeed, I won't mention the red packet. Can I give you a percentage?"
"No need!"
Li Dong replied and walked to the side to make the call.
Yuan Zhongqing's mother and Yuan Zhongqing looked at each other. After a while, Yuan Zhongqing's mother said in a low voice, "Why don't we call Xiao Xue?"
Li Dong said that he was her daughter's classmate, but the more they talked, the more they didn't seem to be.
After all, it involved 300 pieces of fur. Even if it was not worth much, it was almost 100,000 yuan.
At this time, not to mention 100,000 yuan, even 10,000 yuan would be a life-saving straw for the couple. If they were cheated again, it would be troublesome.
Yuan Zhongqing said in a low voice, "Don't rush. Let's see if he can find the manager of Faraway. Faraway is a big enterprise. If he can really find the manager, it's not like he's cheating us. Besides, this is not something that can be done in a day or two. If it doesn't work, we can talk to Xiao Xue at night. "
"That's true."
After the couple finished talking, Li Dong also finished his phone call.
Seeing that the two were looking at him expectantly, Li Dong smiled and said, "Uncle, Auntie, don't worry. It's done. The manager of Dongping will be here soon."
"Coming? Xiao Li, why don't we go over? "
"No need. When he heard that you have goods here, he was very excited and insisted on coming over."
Yuan Zhongqing smiled bitterly. Was he kidding?
Fur was not a rare item. Moreover, it was weasel fur. This kind of thing could be found everywhere in Haining. Was there a need to be excited?
However, since Li Dong said so, Yuan Zhongqing would listen to him.
Anyway, he would know whether it was true or not when the other party came over later.
