Chapter 811

What time is the national drama, that is, the period when Qin Qin Jingju and other quyi developed most rapidly?

The answer must be the forties.

The merchant girl doesn't know the hatred of the fallen country, singing "Backyard Flowers" across the river.

In that era of war, the entertainment industry of Peking opera houses in the capital experienced an unprecedented peak of development.

Whether it was the repertoire, the practitioners, or the inclusiveness of the social strata to which the audience belonged, it reached a fairly prosperous degree.

Of course, behind the prosperity, there was always official control, elite criticism, and new forms of entertainment, such as movies and other categories, which were potential threats to the market.

Control was because ideology distinguished the content of the repertoire and further extended to the political stance of the practitioners.

The criticism from the elite class came from their disdain for the sordid behavior and history of the practitioners.

At that time, the practitioners were in various complex forces in the era and location, colluding with each other; they were a vulnerable group, suppressed and bullied.

And because of some historical reasons, or the limitations of the development and origin of Qin Qin Jingju on practitioners, the phenomenon of opera troupes dominated by men appeared.

Or rather, from the very beginning, "xi-zi" (actor) was just a term for these male practitioners.

Qin Qin Jingju performances, except for old men and martial men, all had the need for men to dress as women; these people had superb skills, and once they put on makeup and played the voice, it was impossible to distinguish between men and women.

And in the feudal dynasty, they had no power or influence, and no power to protect themselves, so this situation appeared in a deformed state.

Older practitioners in later generations recalled that in that era, male practitioners, except for old men and martial men, were all "little gentlemen."

That is to say, if you want to live well, or survive, you have to hone this feminine temperament and skill; the more like a woman, the more famous you are.

And fame needs a lot of money to support; at this time, dignitaries would appear.

These people had power and influence, viewed these people as playthings, and driven by the psychology of curiosity and stimulation, they would do ugly things to these male practitioners.

Things must be viewed from two aspects; where there is a threat, there is submission; these practitioners also had people who trended toward the powerful, expanding this behavior, or popularizing it.

Eventually, a criticized side appeared during the great development period of Qin Qin Jingju.

While people were chasing Qin Qin Jingju stars, they were also criticizing and abandoning their identities; even with high-priced tickets, they still flocked to them.

It is said that "prostitutes are heartless, actors are unrighteous," but anyone who is affectionate and righteous will be written about extensively, and may even become a historical figure.

This strong contrast caused the phenomenon of high income and low status for these people, and also caused some cognitive problems in their psychology.

Rich people naturally looked down on Qin Qin Jingju, and poor people saved for a few months, and could only enjoy it when big landlords set up stages during festivals.

How high was the income of practitioners in those years?

At first, one jin of grain for one ticket, later developing to two jin or even three jin of grain for one ticket.

In that era, there is no need to say much about the meaning represented by one jin of grain; in serious times, it could be exchanged for two yellow-flower girls.

The Mai couple came from that era; Mother Mai was of the generation that entered the industry after women boarded the Qin Qin Jingju stage.

The specific time for women to board the stage cannot be verified; it was roughly between 1912 and 1918; some say the first Qin Qin Jingju actress was Xue Yanqin, and others say someone else.

Li Xuewu and Old Biaozi went out of the dormitory first, giving the Mai family of three space to talk.

Talking about his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Old Biaozi laughed: "In the past, if you wanted to invite them to sing a play, it would cost at least two hundred silver dollars; to bring and teach two apprentices, it would probably cost ten thousand silver dollars."

"And now?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, looked at the ignorant big brother, and asked: "Do you know what 'the swallows that used to be in the halls of Wang and Xie in the past, now fly into the homes of ordinary people' means?"

"What? What? What swallow?"

Old Biaozi looked at Li Xuewu with a blank stare, not knowing why Wu Ge was dropping book bags again.

Li Xuewu smoked a cigarette helplessly, waved his hand, didn't say much about this, but explained his arrangement.

Since the Mai couple had this talent, they should continue the studies of Tong Huimei and the other one.

Different from Mai Qinglan, the two of them had the perseverance and willpower to persist in their Qin Qin Jingju career.

Or perhaps it was love and passion, or habit and life; Li Xuewu could see that Qin Qin Jingju had become a part of their lives.

They were like people living in drama, and even a little bit of the atmosphere of life carried that kind of taste of drama.

Don't know if it was because of the disaster and life changes, Li Xuewu felt that the two had a more thorough understanding of life and drama.

This had no direct relationship with skill; just in the process of getting along with them, Li Xuewu couldn't understand art, but could see people's hearts clearly.

Having interacted once, he always had to give them some help and support, and also give them hope to live on.

If they could become great, maybe they would have their own sky in the future.

Mai Qinglan was different; although she was also from a quyi family, she leaned toward theory and research.

Her parents had skills, but she had no talent; learning this was also for life; she was influenced by her parents since childhood and had their protection, so reading at the Central Academy of Drama was natural.

Li Xuewu hadn't asked about her wishes, because he wouldn't arrange for her to sing in the club.

Even if it was relatively safer now, it was only relatively safer; her college student status was still there, and the Central Academy of Drama status was still there; maybe one day she would go back to school.

He didn't want Mai Qinglan to have contact with the people here, and even less did he want her to be influenced by the daily life here.

No matter what, she was Biaozi's wife; putting her in the recycling station and the club were two different things.

"Tell me what happened."

Li Xuewu flicked the cigarette butt in his hand, which fell into the rainwater and turned into a wisp of white smoke.

Old Biaozi opened his mouth, let out a long breath, and said helplessly: "It was Su Qing who came to find me; it just happened that I wasn't there, and the two met."

"The one from Central Finance?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, looked at the big brother, and asked: "Are you sure the other party is also sincere?"

"This isn't sincere either."

Old Biaozi was actually sober in the human world; he pointed his finger at the dormitory side and said a big truth.

Li Xuewu looked at him amusedly and asked: "Then you still married her?"

"A yellow-flower girl sent to your hand; I don't believe Wu Ge you wouldn't want it."

Old Biaozi smiled bitterly, leaned against the wall, and said in a low voice: "I have never met such a beautiful girl in my life, and this girl even said she wanted to marry me."

Li Xuewu nodded clearly and said: "That's true."

"You are certainly different."

Old Biaozi looked at Li Xuewu and said: "You never lacked partners since you were young; how could you understand my bitterness?"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Li Xuewu frowned and said: "I was excellent in character and learning since I was young, and I was obsessed with literature; where would I have time to find a partner? You remembered wrong!"

"I...!"

Old Biaozi looked at Wu Ge speechlessly; they were standing here talking, and he was still doing this.

"The biggest reason I didn't have a partner since I was young is probably that my face isn't as thick as yours~"

"Talk about you, don't talk about me."

Li Xuewu touched his face; where was it thick? It was clearly just a thin layer.

Old Biaozi twitched the corner of his mouth, raised his head slightly, looked at the overcast sky at 45 degrees, and said melancholically: "Anyway, I thought about it; getting is having; whether she is sincere or not doesn't matter; the person is still my person."

"So you don't cherish it?"

"Breaking the jar?"

Li Xuewu looked at the big brother; if it weren't for the lack of long bangs, a frizzy head, and smoky makeup, he would have really thought this was a non-mainstream depressed youth.

"You like her, including her college student status, beautiful appearance, unique temperament, willing to help her, marry her, support her."

"But you feel you will never get her heart, or you don't have the confidence to make her like you, love you, right?"

Li Xuewu understood the big brother's thoughts and said amusedly: "Are you preparing to take revenge on yourself, or take revenge on this marriage?"

"I didn't..."

Old Biaozi sighed and said: "I don't know what I want anymore; anyway, I feel stifled in my heart."

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said: "Is staying with that Su Qing just to satisfy your vanity and desire for revenge?"

"Tell yourself, and tell her, that you don't lack women? Or women better than her?"

"You might have walked into a dead end."

Li Xuewu patted Old Biaozi on the shoulder, looked at the rain curtain, and said softly: "I said that to her last night to match you up; you have to recognize a fact: men must always prioritize their careers, but they must also have a harmonious family, regardless of whether love exists."

"I know."

Old Biaozi lowered his head, said in a low voice: "I told her that I'm not worthy of her; being with me now is wronging her; I can break up with her, and I can continue to take care of her and her parents."

"Sigh~ What are you trying to get?"

Li Xuewu said helplessly: "You are still in a dead end; what you like isn't her, but taking revenge on the humble and shitty life of the past."

"Think about it carefully."

Li Xuewu wasn't a sympathetic big sister, nor a life mentor, but he was the backbone of these brothers and couldn't watch this big brother who had no heart and no lungs get depression again.

"You have to face the current marriage squarely; don't talk about worthiness anymore; you are a man now; if you can cherish her, treat her well, so well that she can't bear to leave you, and even accepts you."

"Even if you want to continue to take care of that Su Qing, it's fine; you have the ability, you want to take care of a few 'Qing' (feelings) is fine, but it's still that sentence: don't let down any feelings; that is irresponsible to yourself."

"Hmm."

Old Biaozi looked at the cigarette in his hand, smoked the last puff when it was about to burn his hand, and then flicked it away.

"Su Qing knows I'm married, and I also told her about Mai Qinglan; she said she understands me, and also understands the bitterness of this era, begging me to help her find a job; she can even go collect scrap."

"You are quite straightforward."

Li Xuewu stood straight with his hands in his pants pockets, turned his head slightly to look at the big brother, and said: "You know, my truth used to be more than my lies."

"But later I found that the truth hurts people too much; everyone doesn't like to hear it, and I myself think about it, and I can't accept it."

While talking, Li Xuewu turned around, said to Old Biaozi: "Living a life at home, there is no need to be heart-to-heart; be a bit fake, and be harmonious."

"I can't hide words in my heart."

Old Biaozi looked at Li Xuewu aggrievedly, then tilted his head, and said: "I was afraid of poverty; I didn't know how to handle it even when given two gold nuggets."

After finishing, he rubbed his big fat face and said gloomily: "I should have listened to you and found a girl in the alley who knew the roots and the bottom; that would have saved worry."

"With you like this, it's better not to harm the girls in the alley."

Li Xuewu looked at the big brother with drooping eyelids and said: "I have to return to my home in the alley in the future; I don't want people to poke my spine and say I have such a bastard brother."

After finishing, he raised his hand and gave Old Biaozi a slap, not light and not heavy; it was very loud, not very painful, which made him smile bitterly.

This scene was just seen by Mai Qinglan, who was about to come out, from the window, and she flashed back when she saw Li Xuewu's gaze.

Old Biaozi also followed Li Xuewu's gaze to look at the dormitory side, lowered his head and said: "I will handle the family affairs well; anyway, I'm going to Steel City."

"Can't hide from the first day, can't hide from the fifteenth."

Li Xuewu looked at Old Biaozi and asked: "Can you bear to watch that Su Qing starve to death, or can you put down your lust and courage?"

After finishing, he nodded, thought about it, and said: "The club is still missing a financial supervisor; if you think Su Qing has this ability, arrange for her to meet Lou Jie; if Lou Jie says it's okay, then arrange it like that."

"Thank you Wu Ge!"

Old Biaozi looked at Li Xuewu gratefully and said: "I am really ashamed; I am sorry for this one, and sorry for that one."

"What you are truly sorry for is yourself."

Li Xuewu signaled the dormitory side and said: "Looks like she's coming to call you; go ahead, perform well; I'll wait for you at the entrance."

After finishing, he turned and went to the entrance; Huang Gan was standing at the entrance waving at him; the two were going to the club to talk about things in a while.

Old Biaozi looked at Wu Ge's back and turned into the dormitory.

The Mai couple were already getting dressed; Mai Qinglan looked at Li Wenbiao who came in, her gaze placed on his face, where one side was a bit red.

"Dad, Mom, let's set off."

Old Biaozi greeted happily, reached out and took the two largest bags of luggage on the ground, carried them, and walked out.

Mai Qinglan glanced at him, also carried two bags of luggage, left two small bags for the two elders, and followed him out of the room door.

The car was parked at one end of the dormitory building; neither of them held an umbrella; Mai Qinglan first saw Li Xuewu standing under the eaves of the office building talking and laughing, and then saw Li Wenbiao putting luggage into the car in the rain.

Taking advantage of the fact that her parents hadn't caught up yet, Mai Qinglan threw the two bags of luggage onto the car and asked Li Wenbiao, who was getting off the car: "Did he hit you?"

"Ah?"

Old Biaozi looked at Mai Qinglan unexpectedly, then unconsciously touched his face, smiled and said: "It's okay, Brother and I were just playing around."

Mai Qinglan felt that this wasn't playing around; that person was tall and big, and looked like he could kill someone with one slap.

Even if they were brothers, they were at this age, and there was no such thing as playing with slaps.

Looking at the slap mark on Old Biaozi's face, remembering the slap sound she heard, she pursed her lips and stood in the rain and asked: "Is it because of me?"

Then she added: "Because of our business?"

Old Biaozi's face also lost its smile; he nodded silently and said: "Wu Ge is right; I will treat you well."

Mai Qinglan just stood in the rain looking at Li Wenbiao; stubborn tears slid down with the rainwater, and she couldn't tell if it was rainwater or tears.

She was stubborn about life, stubborn about life, and stubborn about marriage, but at this moment her stubbornness turned into tears; she opened her mouth, looked at the man in front of her, and her eyes turned red.

Old Biaozi looked at her appearance, wiped the rainwater off his face, opened the passenger door of the GAZ-69, and walked over to hold her hand to send her into the car.

But Mai Qinglan stubbornly shook off his hand, paused at his stunned expression, and said seriously: "Remember what you said."

After finishing, she ran back to pick up her parents by stepping on the accumulated water on the cement floor.

Old Biaozi was still stunned in the rain, looking at Mai Qinglan's running figure, frowning and doubting: "What did I say?"

Marriage is the beginning of compromise, but it is definitely not the end of love.

Business cooperation is the same; mutual cooperation is marriage; before starting cooperation, there is always some pulling and twists and turns, and in the end, it also ends in compromise.

Li Xuewu arrived at the club, let Huang Gan go play first, and went to the management office himself.

Lou Jie had long been waiting here; seeing Old Biaozi drive over, she asked a question and let Li Xuewu into the office.

"Is Biaozi really looking for two wives?"

"Who said that?!"

Li Xuewu laughed speechlessly: "No such thing; he doesn't have that ability."

Lou Jie curled her lips and said: "You brothers are not good things."

Li Xuewu shrugged; just now Yu Li came to pick up Old Biaozi and the others; Lou Jie knew these things must have been told to her by Yu Li.

There was nothing to refute; he could emphasize his innocence to Old Biaozi, but here at Lou Jie's, all innocence was gone.

"Just arrange it in the newly renovated courtyard."

Lou Jie glanced at him and said the arrangement for the Mai couple, and at the same time questioned: "Are you trying to take care of them, or do you want to use them?"

"Isn't this the same meaning?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, sat on the sofa, kicked off the boots on his feet, and said: "Using them is taking care of them; if there is no use, why should I take care of them?"

"You are really realistic~"

Lou Jie rolled her eyes and said: "Am I also useful to you, so you take care of me?"

"Did I take care of you?"

Li Xuewu pretended to be stupid and said: "Isn't it you who has always been taking care of me!"

After finishing, he winked and asked: "Is it because I am useful to you that you take care of me?"

"Bah! You still have the face to say that!"

Lou Jie glanced at him and said: "I don't need to say what's going on with you; what you plant in your own home is what you get; the weather is smooth and the rain is favorable, but here at my place, there is no harvest!"

"Hiss~~~"

Li Xuewu lay on the sofa and grinned: "The world is going downhill, people's hearts are not ancient; how many sad tears have turned into nothingness~"

"Hmm! Hmm! Sing another one~"

Lou Jie didn't pay attention to his nonsense, poured him hot tea from the coffee table, then sat on the single sofa looking at him who had no proper shape, and curled her lips: "You tell me the truth, are you afraid to give it to me?"

"Look at you, letting your imagination run wild."

Li Xuewu lay on the long sofa, pointed at Lou Jie and said: "You said you wanted a child; have I ever had any precautions? You said you wouldn't allow me to disturb you; I almost handcuffed myself to prove my innocence."

"Now you say this again."

Li Xuewu raised his hand to signal his little brother and said: "I can't handcuff him, right?"

"Get lost! Aren't you ashamed!"

Lou Jie couldn't resist Li Xuewu's shamelessness; this person spoke without shame when the door was closed; what kind of thing is handcuffing.

Li Xuewu twitched the corner of his mouth, lay on the sofa and said: "I have tried my best anyway; I also asked the old doctor; this thing is just so evil."

After finishing, he looked at Lou Jie and said: "A couple has had no children for ten years; after separating, each has children with a new partner; you say, is it evil?"

"Who is evil?"

Lou Jie looked at Li Xuewu with gloomy eyes and asked: "Is it me?"

"Both are evil~"

Li Xuewu twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "I really want to have many children and grandchildren; it's not like I can't afford to raise ten or eight; but the only one willing to give birth to more for me is you."

Lou Jie lowered her head, understood the meaning of Li Xuewu's "give birth to more," and understood Li Xuewu's intention to compensate her even more.

"Do you think it's inconvenient for me to go out while pregnant?"

Lou Jie frantically thought through all possibilities, crossed out the impossible one by one, and what remained was possible.

After asking this, Lou Jie looked at Li Xuewu's eyes and said positively: "Do you think it's inconvenient for me to go out with a big belly, or inconvenient to handle things after going out?"

"If I want you to go out, you can go out no matter what."

Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes and said: "Even your father's identity could go out, let alone you."

After finishing, he sighed, looked at the crying Lou Jie and said again: "I'm afraid that after you go out, you'll get used to the capitalist life and change your mind, run away with my money, or keep a young boy!"

"Get lost! You have nothing to say!"

Hearing him say this, Lou Jie pursed her lips and scolded him with a smile; her heart was both angry and amused, and she also had the warmth of being cared about.

Li Xuewu smiled helplessly and said: "You are out, but I don't have the confidence to keep your heart; if there is a child, there will be some attachment."

After finishing, he looked at Lou Jie and said: "I really hope you can have a child to accompany you outside, so you won't forget me."

"Rest assured, I won't forget you even if I become a ghost~"

Lou Jie stood up and went to the washbasin to wash the tears on her face; the anger in her heart had disappeared.

The logic makes sense, the sincerity is real, so what is there to struggle with.

"Let nature take its course~"

"That also requires diligent cultivation."

Li Xuewu waved his hand and said: "I will work hard; rest assured."

"Keep your word?"

Lou Jie looked back at the rogue lying on the sofa with red eyes; her pouting mouth was like a little woman who was happy to get an agreement.

Li Xuewu nodded very seriously and said: "Now the war is being repaired, the ammunition is sufficient, and I will call you."

After finishing, he signaled the documents on the desk and asked: "Is there any latest news from Hong Kong?"

"Yes, but there is no big progress; it is still in the foundation-laying stage."

Lou Jie became serious when talking about work, walked back to the sofa and sat down, and reported the situation in Hong Kong to Li Xuewu.

And then reported the results of the negotiations with several family representatives such as Ma Jie this week.

"Proportional investment, agreed to the equity distribution plan, agreed to the entrusted investment plan, agreed to the equity separation cooperation plan, agreed to the cooperation compensation plan you gave."

Lou Jie looked at Li Xuewu and said calmly: "Uncle Ma said that the last time their family was cleared out like this was in the early Qing Dynasty; this time it is really at the end of their rope."

"Don't sell poverty to me."

Li Xuewu lay on the sofa like a master with drooping eyelids, and said disdainfully: "If they have the ability, don't clear out the family property; keep it in their hands for a year or a half."

After finishing, he sneered: "They don't even need to work hard to clear it out themselves; there are plenty of people willing to help with this."

Lou Jie sighed and said: "I finally know what a cooperation negotiation is; Dad talked about it last time, he didn't say the bitterness in it; I finally experienced it this time."

"What?"

Li Xuewu asked amusedly: "Human warmth and coldness? The ruthlessness of the business world? Or the merchant's greed and forgetfulness of righteousness?"

"So in your eyes, we are not good people?"

Lou Jie hadn't forgotten her identity; hearing Li Xuewu's words, she felt very unpleasant.

"We also contributed to the country's construction; without merchants, where would the economy come from? Without merchants, where would the country's wealth and strength come from? Without merchants..."

"Du~ Du~"

Li Xuewu turned his head and looked at Lou Jie and said: "Dad told me how our family's foundation was accumulated."

"You!"

Lou Jie was anxious, complaining in her heart why her father told this bastard everything; this made her naturally fall into a disadvantage.

Li Xuewu wasn't proud, but turned his head and continued to lie down and said: "So I said their opportunity to buy into this share is considered a strong man breaking his wrist, a gecko breaking its tail; they are seeking their own life, so why should I sigh at their bitterness~"

This is like sighing at the miserable life of celebrities by workers in later generations, not knowing that when they are poorest, there is only one million left in their cards.

Li Xuewu shook his head and said: "My pity and sadness were lost on the road when I was hungry as a child."

"Now there is only the difference between 'none of my business' and 'none of your business'."

Lou Jie curled her lips and said: "So I am more willing to respectfully call you a big capitalist~"

After finishing, she stood up, bent over and put her face in front of Li Xuewu, looked at Li Xuewu and narrowed her eyes: "You have a cold and shameless heart unique to capitalists."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said: "There is really nothing to say about this; I feel I still need to learn and improve."

Lou Jie looked at Li Xuewu speechlessly, lowered her head and kissed him on the mouth, and said: "Shameless!"

After finishing, she got up and went behind the desk to work, while Li Xuewu closed his eyes and snored, not caring at all about Lou Jie's insult to him.

The capitalist's daughter said she was a bad egg who was blacker than a capitalist, and also said this behavior was shameless?

Where can one go to reason about this~

Li Xuewu stripped the capitalist's capital, just like I cheated a liar...

Closed loop!

Li Xuewu's 【Hong Kong Era Investment Consulting Co., Ltd.】 has a registered capital of only 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and only occupies very, very few shares in the 【Era】 and 【Yihao】 companies.

He wants to use these very, very few shares to control two companies, which is GP.

Then is Li Xuewu short of money?

No, although part of the gold produced is dark shares, including several departments and individuals whose names cannot be mentioned.

The life-saving help of his good friend Fu Haibo and his family, and the Guandong team of Yu Min and his good big brother, gave him capital of no less than 3.5 tons of gold.

Li Xuewu has money, but he can't spend it randomly; his money is useful and must be placed in the 【Era】 company as LP for dividends.

He just pulled a few people to build a big ship, and the rudder is always in his own hands.

The one who sails the ship for him is Lou Jie, and those who can obtain benefits from the ship but cannot steer the ship are those investors.

Of course, these investors are all good captains, and they can't waste so many resources.

Li Xuewu showed mercy, set up a conference room, and everyone can sit down and discuss slowly if they have any good ideas; if it is suitable, the captain will consider it.

The conference room is located deep in the Miyun mountains, located in the protected area of the Third Garrison Regiment, with quiet living and working space, and a secure network that can be interconnected with Hong Kong.

Below the mountain is a small mountain village with a beautiful ecological environment, simple and kind villagers, and people who will not bury traitors alive.

There are good medical resources, animal husbandry resources, fishery, agriculture, food processing, skill training, and other production and living bases there.

As long as you don't walk around randomly, I believe that living there can keep you healthy and prolong your life.

Of course, if you want to walk around randomly, it's fine; the first step out of the door is to step on the forbidden area...

Sleeping on a rainy day is the most comfortable, but Li Xuewu didn't sleep much, because the person he made an appointment with arrived.

"Wu Ge."

"Li Chu."

"Sit."

Li Xuewu yawned, obviously still not awake, drank a sip of the hot tea prepared by Lou Jie, lifted his spirits and said: "Not enough sleep~"

Zuo Jie laughed and said: "Rainy days are like this; people are sleepy and horses are tired, and even toads are dozing off."

Li Xuewu looked at him amusedly, twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "You are still the one who can speak~"

Seeing Lou Jie glaring at himself, Zuo Jie knew he said the wrong thing, smiled embarrassedly, sat on the sofa, and didn't speak again.

Dou Yaozu looked at Zuo Jie, smiled honestly at Li Xuewu, and said: "Li Chu, I have already bought that office building, and it is being renovated."

After finishing, he signaled the direction of Lou Jie and said: "I have already given the specific financial situation materials to Director Lou."

Li Xuewu nodded, waved his hand to signal Master Dou not to be too serious.

"The Dongfeng Construction Cooperative is a collective enterprise, an independent construction unit affiliated under the Jiaodaokou Street; having its own office space is very normal."

"Must do a good job in organizational construction and unit management work, especially financial and personnel management; ask for advice and learn more; expand professional skills and technology; increase investment and transformation of construction equipment."

"Attach importance to talent management and training mechanisms; always put technology and innovation in the first place; put quality and service in the heart; do every task to the strongest."

Li Xuewu pointed at Master Dou and said: "We are not in the system; there is no more help and assistance; survival and development all depend on our own strength and persistence."

"As long as you control the quality, as long as you do a good job in enterprise management, the construction industry in the future will definitely have a place for our Dongfeng Construction."

"Understood."

Dou Yaozu held the teacup and nodded: "Rest assured, we will do whatever you say; everything will be executed according to your instructions."

Li Xuewu nodded and asked: "Have you contacted Huaqing?"

"Yes, the cooperation has already been discussed."

Master Dou nodded and said: "Li Xiaozhang is very polite and kind; knowing that my project has encountered difficulties, he invited teachers and students from the Department of Architecture to come and help; people will return next week."

"Hmm, it's a good thing."

Li Xuewu looked at Master Dou and said: "They have also encountered difficulties; you are helping them now, and you will definitely not suffer; it is a mutually beneficial thing."

After finishing, he drank another sip of hot tea and said: "Especially the teachers and students of the Department of Architecture; if you maintain a good relationship and keep some of these people in our Dongfeng Construction, won't your team be complete?"

"Yes, I thought so too."

Dou Yaozu looked honest and honest, but how could a traditional craftsman who had experienced wind and rain not have a set of mature ways of dealing with people?

"I know you want to regularize Dongfeng Construction, so I also asked Li Xiaozhang of Huaqing for help."

Dou Yaozu looked at Li Xuewu sincerely and said: "I really don't know how a unit should be formed, how an organization should be built, so I invited the teachers and students of Huaqing to support it together."

Li Xuewu looked at Dou Yaozu very unexpectedly, smiled and said: "This is really rare; if there is their help, then your stall can really be supported quickly."

"It's still your guidance."

Dou Yaozu's heart trembled when he heard Li Xuewu's words, and he hurriedly expressed his position: "I am just a mud mason with no culture; talking about management is really seven orifices through six, one orifice not through."

"Hehe~ Take your time; it's all a learning process."

Li Xuewu comforted him lightly, and then held the teacup and started drinking tea.

Hearing Li Xuewu say this, Dou Yaozu still felt it wasn't certain, smiled and reported: "I have already asked Political Commissar Zhao for instructions on recruiting people; he has already helped me write to those retired comrades to inquire."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Li Xuewu smiled and said: "It's really special this year; the reorganization of the Third Garrison Regiment is destined to throw off many people; Regiment Commander Qi is very worried that the local area is not prepared to arrange retired personnel, fearing that they will lose the opportunity to work."

This is indeed a very troublesome matter; there were no new recruits arranged this year, and no retirements arranged, so it is hard to say whether all regions will arrange employment positions for these people.

Of course, Dou Yaozu thought that Li Xuewu's arrangement had another layer of meaning.

Dongfeng Construction's path to today is entirely based on his active pursuit of cooperation with Li Xuewu.

Now that it has reached a critical node, and Li Xuewu has affirmed his work and development achievements, he must express something.

Dongfeng Construction absolutely cannot be all his people, and it must even be understood according to the paragraph Li Xuewu just said to him; Dongfeng Construction will inevitably add more people.

Li Xuewu emphasized that this is a collective enterprise, so it must allow these people to join.

Including teachers and students from schools, local funds and management personnel, and retired personnel arranged by Li Xuewu twice.

Teachers and students from schools will master technical and management positions in the enterprise, funds arranged by Li Xuewu will penetrate into financial and management positions, and retired personnel will go to construction and front-line management positions.

He clearly knew that Li Xuewu was mixing sand, and was complicating the composition of the enterprise he had built up single-handedly.

This is the most distressing choice for an entrepreneur; he knows very well that if Dongfeng Construction wants to develop, it must be arranged like this, mainly because his ability cannot control such rapid development.

To put it more bluntly, sooner or later, Dongfeng Enterprise will no longer exist with him as the helmsman.

This is a very obvious fact; he can build houses and do renovations; now the projects Li Xuewu arranged for him are getting bigger and bigger, and he has to build factory areas; who knows what big projects there will be in the future.

So he, who is becoming more and more strained in management, has already selectively given up the power in his hands, handed these over to capable people, and reported to Li Xuewu at the same time.

Li Xuewu naturally wouldn't treat him badly; with Zuo Jie here, with the Huaqing vice-principal he introduced, and with the direct train for receiving retired personnel from the Third Garrison Regiment, Dongfeng Construction, as he said, will definitely have great development.

Zuo Jie represents that Dongfeng Construction will always have the opportunity to receive professional construction personnel.

People from engineering units all carry professional skills; at least they are more than enough to guide and manage construction on the front line.

Huaqing represents that Dongfeng Construction will always have the opportunity to contact the top professional construction technical support.

As a top domestic construction education institution, Huaqing University's technical support is also enough for Dongfeng Construction to develop rapidly.

Finally, there is the opportunity for the Third Garrison Regiment to receive retired personnel; not every unit has such an opportunity to receive a large number of retired personnel.

If this work is done well and for a long time, ensuring that these retired personnel have suitable job opportunities, then what Dongfeng Construction represents is another layer of meaning.

They say that doing business requires smooth sailing; the wind doesn't come by itself, and the water doesn't move by itself; what is the fish-water relationship?

Seeing that Dou Yaozu understood very thoroughly, Li Xuewu nodded with satisfaction and signaled Lou Jie: "There is a small project to hand over to you."

Look! Isn't there work coming again!

As long as you are obedient, money will never be earned, and work will never be finished!

Lou Jie handed a construction drawing to Master Dou and introduced: "On the hillside of Hongxing Village, a living area needs to be built..."

This is Li Xuewu's promise to Ma Jie and the others; in the early stage, Yin Mancang of Hongxing Village helped to open up a space on the hillside and built a few rows of flat houses.

It was said to be for the communication station of the steel mill, but it was actually given to the five families of Lou Jie to live in.

Now all five families have gone up the mountain, and Mother Lou also hopes to get news from Hong Kong as soon as possible, fearing that it is not safe at the foot of the mountain, so she went up the mountain under Li Xuewu's persuasion.

Now Ma Jie and the others also want to get protection, but the houses on the mountain are limited, so they can't let more than ten families go and squeeze into houses with those five families.

Li Xuewu thought about completely developing that hillside and building some flat houses to provide these people with residence and office.

More than ten families might just be the early stage; who knows how many people will need shelter later.

So he wanted to get out more houses at once to keep as spares, and also needed to build some living facilities.

With so many people, independent cooking is somewhat inconvenient, so he just set up a small canteen.

There are small canteens, small bathhouses must also be there, and small schoolhouses must also be there, right?
