After returning home for the holidays, Li Du couldn't stop thinking about the pager that was on the table. Ever since he bought it, he rarely used it and only checked it occasionally.
Now, it was Su Ming's call, Yu Dehua's, Skinny Monkey's, and Li Aijun's.
This time, it was Skinny Monkey's call. Li He said, "Call Su Ming and the others. We'll all go to Shoushan's restaurant tonight."
It had to be Shoushan's restaurant. Only Shoushan's restaurants had super large private rooms.
He called Shou Shan first and asked him to prepare the whole roast lamb first. These dishes all required time and heat.
He called Li Aijun first and asked him to bring Ding Shiping, Wan Liangyou, and Zhang Bing.
In the end, he gave Yang Fugui a call and asked him to come over as well. This 15-year-old kid had managed the printing factory in an orderly manner. It was completely out of his expectations. Even Liu Lenovo was full of praises for him.
According to Liu Lenovo, they just had to wait for the opening.
The kid was not afraid of going far in Xianghe and agreed immediately.
Li He then asked Four to call Fu Xia. They would all go together at night. After all, she was a local tycoon now. There should be a seat for her at the dinner table.
Four put down the popcorn in her hand and removed the stove. She washed her hands and went to find Fu Xia.
Fu Xia came back a few days ago. She had her own house now. She had money and food, and the decoration of the house was very good.
There was a 19-inch color TV, an imported washing machine, a warm imported fireplace, a full set of leather furniture and sofas, and a spotlessly clean marble floor. This kind of modern decoration was even more popular with Fourth Sister. She felt that it was even better than her brother's house.
Fu Xia was wearing slippers and was watching TV lazily at home. When she saw her come in, she warmed her hands and asked with a smile, "Are you cold?"
Four smiled. "I'm not cold. My brother is calling you for dinner at Uncle Shoushan's place."
"Have an apple." Fu Xia handed her an apple, "Then we'll go together later, don't be in a hurry to leave."
Four nodded. In the past few days, she had also been charmed by Fu Xia's sugar-coated bullets. She had collected several sets of clothes, from windbreakers to jackets to skirts. She also had an extra watch, which she could wear in turn.
She sat on the sofa and sank into it. "This sofa is so soft."
"If you like it, I'll send you a set tomorrow," Fu Xia said generously. She was a furniture factory owner, and she was not lacking in furniture.
"No need, no need." Four hurriedly waved her hand. Every time she accepted something from others, her brother didn't agree, so she couldn't accept it.
She didn't know how many things she had received at the end of the year. Ah, that Skinny Monkey, Su Ming, Pinsong, Shoushan, Lu Bo, all of them. She couldn't count them all with her fingers. There was a small walkman, a fun music box, and delicious chocolates.
Every time someone gave her something, she didn't know what to do. She could only stare at her brother helplessly, and only accept it when her brother nodded.
Fu Xia said, "It's fine if I give it to you. Your brother will definitely agree."
"Where can I put it at home? There's no room." Four was telling the truth. The house was filled with expensive red sandalwood and agarwood furniture, and there was no room for it.
Fu Xia smiled and said, "Why don't you have room? The furniture in your house is too old-fashioned. I'll arrange brighter furniture for you tomorrow."
Four said, "We'll talk about it later. Let's go to my house. My brother is waiting at home, and it won't be good for him to lock the door if he leaves."
Fu Xia agreed. She put on a coat and went out with Four.
When they reached home, Li He said to Four, "You can eat at home. It's cold outside, so don't go."
Before Four could say anything, Fu Xia said, "It's okay, I'll bring you. You're all men, so I have someone to talk to."
Four said, "It's really cold, so I won't go."
She insisted on staying at home.
Pinsong's second-hand van was already parked in front of the house. Li He only saw Little Wei, Huang Guoyu, and Lu Bo at the back of the car.
Li He asked, "Where's Feng Lei and Luo Pei?"
"Here, here." Feng Lei popped his head out from under the sofa. "Brother Luo Pei is with Brother Erbiao."
"Sit in the back, I'll drive." Li He ushered Pinsong out of the driver's seat.
Pinsong glanced at Fu Xia and went to the back of the car, while Fu Xia went to the front passenger seat.
Li He asked, "Where's my driver's license? How long has it been? "
"It's here." Pinsong handed a red booklet to Li He.
Li He took a look at it and thought that it was really not easy. He had to take the exam himself to get it, and he had to pay the tuition fee of 2000 yuan. This price was really not something that ordinary people could afford. That was why there were very few drivers. After learning this, it would be the treatment of a senior technical worker.
Most importantly, not everyone could get a driver's license. One had to have a car at work.
In order to get a driver's license, he even asked the school to give him a recommendation letter.
Most importantly, it wasn't easy for him to learn. He couldn't change the direction of the car, couldn't step on the brakes, and was making loud noises. He wanted to die then.
You say you know how to drive?
So what if you know how to drive!
You can't do anything about the great liberation of the 1980s!
Vehicle management was still very strict, and it would be troublesome without a driver's license.
According to the stricter regulations, a newbie like him who had just gotten his driver's license had to accompany a driver for at least half a year. He also needed a qualified driver's signature or a certain number of kilometers to drive. However, the traffic police usually turned a blind eye to this and wouldn't take it too seriously.
His van was very smooth to drive.
The only downside was that the road was slippery with snow in winter, so he had to be careful when driving.
It was much better when he reached the main road, where most of the snow had already been shoveled.
Shoushan Restaurant's business was even better at the end of the year. There were many cars parked at the entrance, and it was obvious that many of the customers were important.
Zhou Ping had been waiting at the entrance of the restaurant the whole time. When she saw Li He arrive, she quickly directed the car to reverse into the parking lot.
Su Ming, Skinny Monkey, and the others had arrived earlier and came out to welcome them.
These people were all wearing black leather jackets. Their sleeves were open, revealing thick woolen sweaters. They all had a high-profile style.
Li He teased the beard on Skinny Monkey's face, "Your beard is very warm."
Skinny Monkey said, "It's cold in the north, so it's better to keep a beard. It doesn't freeze your chin."
Shoushan had already set up a private room. There were two big tables in a large private room. There were Maotai, Jiannanchun, and beer on each table. In the middle was a roasted golden lamb.
The heater was turned on, and they were a little sweaty when they entered the room. They even took off their jackets.
Pinsong smiled and patted Shoushan's shoulder, "Skinny old man, you've put in a lot of effort this time."
He liked to say "Shou" as "skinny."
Shoushan pushed his hand away in disdain, "Don't be so rude. It's not a loss if you can finish it."
After a while, Li Aijun arrived with Wan Liangyou and the others on crutches.
Li He casually chatted for a while.
Zhou Ping waved at Li He and said that there was a child outside looking for him.
Li He went out and saw that it was a kid. "Come in, why are you standing there like a fool?" he said.
"Ah." Yang Fugui finally had a backbone when he saw Li He. He came all the way from Xianghe and was shivering from the cold.
Li He touched his clothes, "How can I be thin? Didn't I give you money? Don't you know how to buy your own clothes?"
"I'm not cold, I'm not cold."
Li He brought him into the room and introduced him to everyone.
Everyone nodded at him. They were all bosses with millions of assets, so who would be so friendly to a kid?
Yang Fugui didn't mind.
Li He asked everyone to sit down.
Pinsong, Lu Bo, Xiaowei, and the others had already sat down at another table. Li He also arranged for the kid to sit at that table.
Wan Liangyou and the others wanted to sit at that table, but Su Ming quickly stopped him, "They're all kids. Why are you joining them? Let's sit together and have fun."
