Chapter 657

Su Ming chatted with Li He for a while and more or less understood what he meant. However, he could only listen to part of Li He's words. He was not as rich as Li He, who was so well-trained at such a young age and treated money like it was nothing.

His money was the real hard-earned money.

Although investing in a movie was not considered a huge gamble, it was still a high risk. Getting rich overnight and losing everything were on the same level.

He had to be careful. He did not stay for lunch and left directly.

At night, when Li He and his wife had just finished their exercise, the loud crying of a child came from outside.

However, it was definitely not Li Lan's. Li Lan was sleeping with Old Madam He in the front yard, and the crying sound could not travel that far.

Li He stopped He Fang, who wanted to follow him, and said, "I'll go over and take a look. You sleep first. You still have work tomorrow, so don't wait for me."

When they entered Wang Yulan and her husband's room, Yang Huai was wailing loudly.

Wang Yulan coaxed him and complained at the same time, "Russian little ancestor, he came so early and didn't make a fuss. Why is he making a fuss today?"

Li He asked, "What's wrong with him? Why is he crying in the middle of the night?"

Wang Yulan said helplessly, "He said he wants to go home. Who can send him home at this time? He was happy in the afternoon, but his face changed at night."

"Ah wants to go home to look for Ah Ma." Yang Huai continued to cry.

The novelty of his arrival had worn off, and his homesickness and yearning for his mother were almost instantaneous. He burst out at the drop of a hat.

"Alright, don't cry. Call your mother tomorrow, okay?" Seeing that Li Ke and Li Pei were also affected, Li He quickly coaxed Yang Huai. If the three children were to make a fuss together, it would be troublesome.

Yang Huai yelled, "Ah wants to go home now!"

Li He patted him on the back. "Didn't you promise Uncle when you came? You said you were obedient, so why are you going home now? We'll definitely call Mother tomorrow, okay? Let's go to sleep now. "

Yang Huai continued to sob.

Wang Yulan said, "Aren't you the same as Grandma? Grandma is taking you to school."

"I just want Mommy!" Yang Huai still only said that.

Li Zhaokun said to Li He, "Call his mother. Don't hurt your throat from crying."

"Okay." Upon closer inspection, Yang Huai's eyes were swollen from crying. Li He was afraid that the child would hurt himself from crying, so he didn't care what time it was and immediately dialed Yang Xuewen's home number.

Li Mei and her husband didn't sleep well in the middle of the night either. The little girl had wet the bed and was busy wiping the mats.

Just as she was wringing the rag clean and drying it, she heard the phone at the bedside ring.

Li Mei was still curious about who was calling. Just as she picked up the call, the sound of crying on the other end of the phone made her heart wrench. It was her own son's voice. How could she not recognize it?

She asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Li He held onto his big brother and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just that Yang Huai is homesick and is crying in the middle of the night. You can comfort him yourself."

Yang Huai hugged the big brother with both hands and spoke to Li Mei in a muffled voice.

On the other end of the phone, one was crying, and the other was comforting. One was thirsty, and the other was not listening.

Li Mei and her husband took turns to answer the phone, taking turns to comfort him.

In the end, when Carpenter Yang and his wife heard the commotion, they picked up the phone anxiously and made promises to their eldest great-grandson.

As they chatted, there was no sound. Li He tried calling back. It turned out that the big brother owed money.

He hurriedly returned to the central room and called the landline.

Just like that, they continued chatting.

Wang Yulan said worriedly, "This phone bill is really expensive."

"There's no need for that. Let them chat for as long as they want," Li He said indifferently. As long as he could coax this child, chatting for the next year would not be a problem.

It was not until three o 'clock in the morning that Yang Huai hung up the phone with his eyelids drooping. He fell asleep in Wang Yulan's arms after a while.

When they woke up in the morning, Yang Huai woke up very early as usual. He ate a bowl of porridge and two salted duck eggs. Then, he ran around with Li Pei and the kids.

Seeing how happy he was, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

However, that night, when he was about to go to bed, he cried again.

Then, he continued to make calls. Li Mei's family, old and young, followed him to comfort him.

Just like the night before, he fell asleep.

Li He had learned to be smart. The first thing he did after breakfast was to go to the telecommunications office. Under everyone's dumbfounded gaze, he recharged 50,000 yuan in one go. This way, he would not have to worry about the phone being shut down because of the arrears.

Fortunately, Yang Huai only made a fuss for a few days before he calmed down. It was as if he had completely forgotten about going home.

Ding Shiping and Pinsong brought news from Xiong Haizhou. The Pan Hai Group had won the renovation project of Chrysanthemum Alley.

Pinsong said, "We went to bid for it. Even though the price was 50% lower than the Pan Hai Group's and it was a losing bid, we still didn't win it."

"It's not your fault." Li He was so angry that he slammed the table. He had underestimated Xiong Haizhou's power. There were some things that couldn't be done with money.

Ding Shiping suggested, "Why don't we give him some trouble with the demolition? I have a way to make sure he won't be able to dismantle it for a year and a half! "

Li He shook his head. "This is a government project. If we really do that, who will be embarrassed?"

Pinsong and Ding Shiping were silent.

Li He continued, "How's his mall?"

After Xiong Haizhou took over Luo Pei's mall, he was renovating it and preparing to reopen for business.

This time, Pinsong said confidently, "Don't worry about that. As long as it's a manufacturer that cooperates with us, I guarantee that they won't be able to get their hands on it! I haven't been doing wholesale with Lu Bo all these years for nothing. Just Xiaowei's electronics store alone is enough to choke him to death. "

In the early years, they were the biggest second-hand dealers in the north China region. Now, Lu Bo's department store alone had opened four stores. No manufacturer dared to offend these distributors. In this day and age, the distribution channels were truly king.

Even if these manufacturers dared to sacrifice the north China market, they didn't have the guts to say that they didn't care about the southern market.

In the southern market, there were trading companies like Su Ming, Yu Dehua, and Shen Daoru. Their distribution channels were stronger than those in the north.

Furthermore, Yu Dehua was the president of the Light Industry Union. Not many manufacturers dared to offend him because their exports depended on him.

Even when faced with Huang Bingxin's money bag, not many manufacturers dared to not give him face.

"Let's continue then." Since he couldn't cut the Gordian knot with a sharp knife, then he would cut the meat with a blunt knife. As long as he could make the other party feel pain, Li He said to Ding Shiping, "Go with Pinsong to settle the paperwork. Follow me to Hong Kong in a few days."

He wanted to send his children to Hong Kong.

If it wasn't for He Fang's objection, he would have brought Li Lan to Hong Kong as well.

He Fang had already enrolled Li Lan in Mian Hutong Kindergarten. She was very persistent about the educational resources of a famous school. Even primary school, middle school, high school, and university were all non-famous schools. She had already planned which school to attend. She even started a discussion with Li He and compared all the schools. It was as if her son was born to attend such a school.

Before school started, Li Lan had been carrying a brand-new school bag all day, running around the courtyard and alleys.

After dinner, He Fang was brushing her teeth in the flower bed as usual. Suddenly, she started retching.

Wang Yulan pouted at Li Zhaokun.

Li Zhaokun said nonchalantly, "It's been like this since morning. What's so strange about it?"

Wang Yulan knew that she couldn't get through to him, so she looked at her son.
