Chapter 152: The privileged duo
"I once heard Ezi say that if she had the chance, she would really like to go and broaden her horizons," said Xu Damao.
"Hey, if you go, maybe you can really make a name for yourself there." In Chen Mu's eyes, if this kind of people were engaged in business in this era and had capital, they might do surprisingly well. "
According to the novel, this guy made a lot of money in business, and even the suits he wore were from Pierre Cardin. If it weren't for the plot twist, he probably wouldn't have almost starved to death.
"Hehe, is that really the case? Unfortunately, the timing is not right. My whole family lives in Beijing, which is different from you." Xu Damao said with a smile: "How about having a drink together tonight?"
"Then don't drink. It's going to rain soon. I'll go make dinner first." Chen Mu replied.
"Hey, you and your wife are living a good life. Tell me, when are you planning to hold the wedding?"
"There are too many things to do this year, so maybe we have to wait until next year."
The next year, the year 1973 (actually ), is when the trend starts, and Chen Mu plans to take the girls to ** together. Because the public identities of Qiunan, Xiaoqian, Yaner and Gaoyao may cause problems, there may be some trouble at that time.
It would be best to take them along.
As for what to do with the family after they leave, isn't that simple? Chen Mu can move freely between the two places through the secret realm. After he resigns from his position, those so-called bad guys will not be able to do anything to him. If anyone dares to have such an idea, Chen Mu will first kill them.
Moreover, Chen Mu knew that during this turbulent period, many precious antiques and cultural relics were stolen and robbed. People like Li Huaide used their power to confiscate houses and make money, and secretly hid the seized items.
These people really deserve it.
Considering the bastards in this courtyard, it is estimated that in their eyes, once Chen Mu becomes a rich man, troubles will ensue. Even people like Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong will probably call their men to raid his house. Just because he is rich, he has become the target of their jealousy.
The two men walked to the central courtyard and arrived at the door of the Jia family. Gang Gang looked at Chen Mu and Xu Damao with bright eyes. Then his eyes fell on the two hens in Xu Damao's cart, and he was drooling.
Chen Mu's house always locked the door and often called the police, so Gang Gang felt a little uneasy and didn't dare to visit. But he had no scruples about Xu Damao's property.
Chen Mu noticed Gang Gang's gaze and couldn't help but smile when he saw him staring at the chicken in Xu Damao's car. The revised plot still worked.
It seems like this guy is really planning to take away a few chickens?
Xu Damao returned home, took out a cage, stuffed two hens into it and closed the cage, clapped his hands and went back into the house to play with his two-year-old son...
Ever since he had the child, Xu Damao has loved him very much. He was afraid that the child would get bumped or hurt, held him in his hands for fear of him falling, and held him in his mouth for fear that he would melt. He cared for and indulged him all the time.
After Liu Xiao'e had a son, she also learned to cook. Although her cooking skills were average, the relationship between the two became sweeter. Although Xu Damao would occasionally find an empty rural area to "stay overnight", his behavior was obviously much more restrained.
After Chen Mu returned home, he took out a freshly-baked roast duck from the secret warehouse, cut it up and put it on the dining table, and at the same time took out a table full of sumptuous meals.
There is so much stock in the secret warehouse that Chen Mu often prepares a lot of food for storage in his spare time.
When Xiao Yao and Xiao Qiao are free, they are also happy to cook, and they can make a few big meals at will, and the portions are quite large. So when Chen Mu is at home, unless there are special circumstances, he usually chooses to take hot food directly from the mysterious world warehouse instead of cooking it himself.
Soon, He Yushui returned home after a day's work. When he opened the door, he saw a table full of delicious food, and his appetite was instantly aroused.
"How do you feel about your first day at work?" Chen Mu asked as he handed Yu Shui a bowl of rice.
"There is almost nothing to do in the company. I mainly process data and spend most of my time in an idle state." He Yushui described his work status.
"This is how office work is. You'll get used to it. When you have time, read more about business. I brought back a lot of books from Hong Kong." Chen Mu suggested.
"Yeah, Brother Chen Mu, I feel like compared to Hong Kong, here we feel a little bit..."
"Does it seem a little lagging behind or lacking in vitality?" Chen Mu continued.
"Yes, that's how it feels. Life in Hong Kong seems like money circulates very quickly, and you can make money even faster," He Yushui nodded in agreement.
"This is the power of the market economy, which encourages consumption and drives supply. When the market is active, the economy will naturally grow. On the contrary, in a planned economic system, the supply of goods is limited, and demand is difficult to meet or is in excess, resulting in a lot of waste. In addition, workers in many units receive the same salary regardless of how hard they work, which reduces work efficiency. For example, you only get 30 yuan a day for working hard, while someone can get the same by being lazy. Over time, a lazy atmosphere will be formed, and productivity will drop sharply." Speaking of this, Chen Mu said in a profound tone.
He Yushui fell into deep thought after hearing these words.
After a moment of silence, she said, "In the long run, people are becoming more and more passive and lazy, and productivity will decline sharply. Won't this put the economy at risk of collapse?"
Chen Mu nodded and said, "Indeed, the socialist concept is just a vision that requires a transitional period to be realized. Otherwise, it will lead to obsolescence. I am considering going to Hong Kong after the New Year so that your knowledge can be put to good use. Here, your professional abilities have nowhere to be used."
"If we go to Hong Kong, can we come back?" He Yushui asked.
"Definitely. I predict it will happen at least next year or the year after. Due to institutional factors, conflicts will intensify sooner or later, and people with my background will probably become targets." Chen Mu analyzed the situation.
Hearing this, He Yushui became a little anxious: "What if you are not safe? What should we do?"
"Don't worry, look at this." Chen Mu walked into the house and took out two copies of calligraphy and two family photos.
Seeing the signatures of the old man and Mr. Wu, as well as the photo of Chen Mu with the two old men, He Yushui was shocked and stunned.
"Brother Chen Mu, this... is amazing!"
She didn't know where to begin, her eyes were filled with immense admiration for Chen Mu, it was unbelievable to her that such a respected person had a relationship with two seniors and received gifts.
Chen Mu smiled and said, "With two old men to rely on, who would offend me? I plan to develop in Hong Kong in the future. It would be a pity to waste time in ** in the past few years. I can take this opportunity to travel around the world."
Hearing Chen Mu's plans for his future life, He Yushui was full of expectations for the future:
"I have to learn more in advance, otherwise I won't know how to deal with it when I get to Hong Kong."
This description is written as follows:
In recent days, Naughty Egg sneaked into Xu Damao's backyard day after day, intending to kidnap the old hen, but because of Lou Xiao'e, who stayed at home to take care of the children and the house, Naughty Egg never succeeded. His anger grew, and he skipped classes for several days in a row just for a chicken.
You know, the school originally refused to admit the naughty boy because of his experience of being a jerk in his youth. But Qin Huairu stood up and took off her clothes in the principal's office and shouted. The principal was so scared that he was afraid that his reputation would be ruined if this was exposed. He had no choice but to agree to let him return to school.
After returning to school, the naughty boy seemed to have calmed down in the beginning, but it was difficult to change one's nature, and he often committed petty thefts, such as taking away classmates' pencils and erasers. What was even more shocking was that he bullied girls. His grades were always at the bottom, and the teachers gradually let him go.
Such cases of skipping classes in the afternoon are not uncommon.
The weekend came as expected. In the afternoon of this day, Naughty Egg chose to skip school again and quietly returned to the courtyard with his friends Xiaodang and Huaihua. They assigned the guards and waited for the signal at the moon gate. Then Naughty Egg quietly approached the backyard and saw that Xu Damao's house was closed and quiet.
Being cautious, he quickly grabbed a hen by the neck, stuffed it into his pocket, and ran all the way to the Moon Gate, calling on his friends to follow him quickly, and the two little girls chased after him happily.
At this time, Chen Mu was not in the steel mill, but busy in the hospital. He was rescuing a seriously injured soldier. The soldier who was shot several times was saved by Chen Mu's magic medicine. Chen Mu tried his best to save the wounded soldier.
"What's the matter, Doctor Chen?" Liu Jianjun asked hurriedly as he saw Chen Mu walking out of the operating room.
Chen Mu came to the corner and talked to Liu Jianjun: "This is the eighth time this week, right?" His tone revealed worry.
Liu Jianjun shook his head and sighed: "Yes, the capital is about to be in turmoil recently, so you should not ask too much about these things. But that pill... can you give me more?"
In response to Liu Jianjun's request, Chen Mu was silent for a moment and handed him a porcelain bottle: "There are 100 pills here. It's my bad luck that I have to deal with you." After that, he left and returned to the ward to check on the condition of the injured patient. After confirming that his condition was stable, he gave some instructions on the medication items and left.
As Liu Jianjun stepped out of the infirmary, he met Chen Mu.
"Chen Mu, can you please do me a favor?" he asked.
Chen Mu took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Go ahead."
"We need to carry out a potentially dangerous mission, so we need a doctor to accompany us," Liu Jianjun explained.
Chen Mu glanced at his watch and asked, "When does it start?"
"Right now." Liu Jianjun said seriously.
"Okay." After a moment's consideration, Chen Mu agreed. First, he was Liu Jianjun's friend, and second, he was unwilling to sit back and watch them take risks, so he did his best to help.
Moreover, Chen Mu was no ordinary man. He knew that what Liu Jianjun had arranged for him was an important matter - an operation involving guns.
"It's really great." Liu Jianjun said excitedly.
So Chen Mu followed Liu Jianjun and left, and soon the other ten members of the Red Team gathered. Observing this team of soldiers, each of them was equipped with a submachine gun and a pistol, with a solemn and experienced expression, like an elite soldier who had experienced countless fierce battles. They might have been close to the appearance of a special forces unit.
Chen Mu walked at the end of the team, playing a supporting role.
