Chapter 550: A Gentleman Does Not Stand Under a Dangerous Wall
When the car Li Dongling was riding in returned to the Li family courtyard, there was already a layer of dust outside, which showed how many projects Pingyang had now.
However, every city, as long as it carries out major infrastructure construction, will experience this, whether it is domestic or overseas, including big cities like New York and Tokyo, all are like this.
Pingyang now, this can only be considered "small trouble." It hasn't started building skyscrapers, subways, urban overpasses, etc., otherwise, the project volume would be several times larger.
If these can be built, then Pingyang will undergo earth-shaking changes. Every modern city will experience such a monster of infrastructure construction. If it is built, then it will have it. If it is not built, then wait for this wave of infrastructure construction to pass, and it is likely that it will not be built.
"Big Brother!"
When Li Dongling's car stopped, Li Dongshan was already waiting at the door. After Li Dongling got off the car, he called out to Li Dongshan.
Li Dongshan looked at Li Dongling who got off the car, and seeing Li Dongling who returned with some dust, except for being a bit tired and thin, there was nothing wrong, so he felt relieved.
Li Dongshan helped unload the things Li Dongling brought back from the car and said to Li Dongling, "These days, Mom has been thinking about you a lot, and Dad has also mentioned your name several times.
Little Sister waited until it was almost time for school to start, and you still hadn't returned to Hanxi, so she returned to Yanjing!"
A mother worries when her child travels a thousand miles. Parents in the world treat their children the same. Whether it is the Li family siblings who go on a long journey, Wang Xiulan is thinking about it. On the contrary, Li Lao Tou, who has always been unaccustomed to expressing emotions in front of Li Dongling and the others, was able to mention it this time, clearly truly worried about Li Dongling.
Little Sister Li Dongyue stayed in Pingyang for the whole summer vacation. Seeing that she really couldn't wait for Li Dongling, Yanjing University was about to start school, so she rushed to Yanjing.
Li Dongling nodded, unloaded the things he bought from America from the car, and said to Li Dongshan with a smile, "In the future, I don't know how many times I can go to America. Even if I go, I probably won't stay for such a long time!"
Hearing this, Li Dongshan was clearly stunned, not knowing what Li Dongling meant by this.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Prevent disaster first and don't cause injury later!
With examples like Alstom of France, Binance, and the founder of Telegram in his past life, Li Dongling will not easily take risks and send his head, especially if Dongxin Semiconductor launches chips and lithography machines.
Maybe in the early stage, Dongxin's technology is far inferior to Intel and AMD, so it won't be targeted, but one day, if the technology catches up, then what kind of movement America will have is unknown.
Anyway, Li Dongling will go to America once less each time. He will never use his own safety to test the bottom line of the Anglo-Saxons and Hebrews. What is the difference between that and a meat bun hitting a dog?
"Mom, Dad, I'm back!"
When Li Dongling went inside, Wang Xiulan and Li Zhenlin were in the middle of being busy, clearly preparing dishes for Li Dongling's return, with another woman helping out nearby.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back!"
Seeing Li Dongling, Wang Xiulan immediately showed a look of joy, and then looking at Li Dongling who was a lot thinner, she started to tear up again. "You've lost weight. It seems that the food in America is not nourishing, and I don't know what so many people are desperately going there for!"
Hearing this, Li Dongling couldn't help but shake his head and smile. Maybe the tastes of food in various parts of the world are not connected, and domestic food is not necessarily liked by people all over the world.
But for people who have been used to eating domestic food since childhood, how many people are used to foreign food after going out? If you don't believe it, ask those students studying abroad. Except for a few regions like Japan, the rest, whether it is America, England, Germany, Italy, or South Korea, India, which one doesn't break down when mentioning local food?
"Sister-in-law!"
Li Dongling called out to the woman helping on the side. It was Miao Jiahui, who had already been engaged to Li Dongshan.
During the Spring Festival this year, after the Li family and the Miao family met, the marriage between Li Dongshan and Miao Jiahui was determined. Just waiting for the two to get the certificate, Miao Jiahui officially entered the Li family's door.
Since the Spring Festival, Miao Jiahui has often come to the Li family to help Wang Lao Tai Tai do things. Wang Xiulan is naturally very satisfied with this daughter-in-law. Now she is just waiting for Li Dongshan and Miao Jiahui to pass through the door and give birth to a son or daughter for the old Li family.
Miao Jiahui, who had been called by Li Dongling, couldn't help but blush slightly since she hadn't officially married into the family yet, but a sense of sweetness welled up in her heart. The entire Li family, whether it was the couple Wang Xiulan and Li Zhenlin, or Li Dongling and Li Dongyue, had clearly already accepted her status and treated her as a member of the Li family, rather than some outsider.
"Dongshan, why don't you put the things down quickly? The food is already prepared!" Miao Jiahui glanced at the silly smiling Li Dongshan and said.
"Let's have a drink!"
After the large table of food prepared by Wang Xiulan was fully set, Li Dongling opened a bottle of Xifeng liquor and poured a glass for everyone. Li Dongshan, Li Zhenlin, and even Wang Xiulan and Miao Jiahui raised their glasses. In this day and age, women were also capable of drinking liquor, and strong liquor at that.
Old Man Li also rarely took a sip of liquor; normally, Wang Xiulan wouldn't let Li Zhenlin have any.
People are supported by a single breath of vitality. In the past, the burden of the Li family rested on Li Zhenlin's shoulders. Old Man Li's build wasn't exactly burly, but the heavy and tiring farm work of the Li family was all done by him. It seemed that Li Zhenlin hadn't had any problems with his health before.
But after the Li family started to prosper and Li Zhenlin no longer had to do heavy labor, that breath of vitality dissipated, and all sorts of minor health issues appeared. Old, lingering injuries began to surface. Especially after this year's physical examination, although there were no major illnesses, the doctor specifically hired to look after the elderly couple forbade him from drinking liquor every day. Even the dry tobacco that Old Man Li had never been able to put down in the past had to be rationed.
It was only because Li Dongling returned today that Li Zhenlin was able to drink a few glasses of liquor.
"Big Brother, when will you and Sister-in-law get married?" Li Dongling asked Li Dongshan after eating a few mouthfuls of food.
Hearing this, Miao Jiahui also looked at Li Dongshan with a bit of shyness. Seeing that Li Dongshan seemed to be still thinking hard, under the table, she raised her foot and stepped on Li Dongshan's toe.
This step made Li Dongshan's face even more bitter. "I plan to get the certificate with Jiahui after the Oriental Times Square is completed. It's really too busy now!"
"Humph!"
"If that broken mall is not completed for a day, you won't marry a wife for a day, wasting Miao girl in vain!"
Li Zhenlin let out a muffled snort. Upon hearing that Li Dongshan was actually affecting his grand plan of holding his grandchildren, he set his glass down on the table and began to blow his beard and stare with wide eyes.
Now the old men in the village where the Li family is located, the only ones who can compare with Li Lao Tou are showing off their grandsons and granddaughters, which makes Li Lao Tou very unconvinced.
"Uncle Li, we are not in a hurry. Now the Oriental Times Mall is at a critical period. It is better to take the big things as the priority!"
Miao Jiahui saw Li Lao Tou getting angry and quickly explained for Li Dongshan. She knew clearly that the Oriental Times Mall was a project of hundreds of millions, and it could not tolerate the slightest mistake. She knew how much Li Dongshan valued the Oriental Times Mall, and Miao Jiahui didn't want to affect this project because of herself.
Li Dongling looked at Li Dongshan and Miao Jiahui, who were singing and following each other, and couldn't help but smile. Miao Jiahui is much more understanding than the woman Li Dongshan married in his past life. Li Dongshan and Miao Jiahui get married, and Li Dongling and the Li family don't have to worry in the future.
"The Oriental Times Mall should be completed by the end of this year. In addition, around the Oriental Times Square, there is also a supporting Oriental Times Square Hotel, which has a wedding banquet hall.
At that time, it would be most appropriate for my brother and sister-in-law to get married in the wedding banquet hall of the Oriental Times Square Hotel. At that time, it is hard to say that many guests will come!" Li Dongling said.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhenlin also knew that what Li Dongling said was the truth. Today's Li family was vastly different from the past. Given the Li family's current net worth and status, if Li Dongshan and Miao Jiahui were to get married, a large crowd of guests would certainly come, and this courtyard of the Li family might not even be able to accommodate them.
Of course, if it were Li Dongling getting married, then at that time, it is estimated that more guests would come. Guests from the Hanxi provincial capital, Pingyang, Hong Kong, and even Yanjing would come. The battle is estimated to be much larger.
Li Dongling returned to Pingyang and rested at the Li family for two days. After the fatigue on his body was gone, he rushed to the Dongling Gao Ke headquarters in the Pingyang urban area.
Traffic jams on Changqing Road in Pingyang during commuting hours are the norm. That's right, it's a traffic jam. In this era of bicycles and motorcycles, this road is a traffic jam of cars.
As the location of the Dongling Gao Ke headquarters, the staff working at the headquarters, not to mention one car per person, but the car ownership is quite high, and there are even quite a few luxury cars. For example, that Ferrari sports car belongs to Zhang Ao, the president of the Dongling Gao Ke Marketing Department.
But today, Changqing Road is extra congested, especially the parking spaces near the Dongling Gao Ke headquarters, which are packed full. ===== CHAPTER 551 =====
