188. Xudamao Investment

The long-haired girl reached out her hand and said graciously, "Zhou Xia, what should I call you?"
Xudamao quickly wiped his hands and smiled, saying, "Xudamao, nice to meet you."
Xu Damao grabbed Zhou Xia's hand and shook it vigorously, saying, "Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!"
Zhou Xia looked at Liu Guangfu, who was not happy. Xu Damao ignored him and smiled, saying, "My house is next to Guangfu's house. Why don't you come to my house and have a chat? Let's discuss it properly."
"Sure." Zhou Xia agreed.
"What about Guangfu Brothers?" Xu Damao turned to look at Liu Guangfu.
"It's okay, Guangfu will come over." Zhou Xia said with a smile.
"Let's go then."
Xu Damao spoke, leading the way and heading straight to the backyard.
"Hurry up!" Zhou Xia turned around and urged Liu Guangfu.
"What's the rush? I know their family, it's not like I don't." Liu Guangfu muttered.
Three of them walked to the backyard with an uneasy attitude.
Yan Jiecheng hesitated a little, and Yu Li twisted his arm, causing him to grimace in pain.
"What are you doing!" Yan Jiecheng said unhappily.
"Are you dead? Why don't you know to keep up?" Yu Li glared at him and said.
Yan Jiecheng finally reacted and quickly caught up. Yu Li followed after.
Home of Xu Damao.
When Li Guangfu entered the door and prepared to close it, Yan Jiecheng stuck his foot in.
"What are you doing?" Li Guangfu said coldly, without the flattery from earlier.
"Didn't I also invest? Aren't we discussing it together?" Yan Jiecheng said awkwardly.
"Accepting your investment is conditional. So what shares are you even talking about? None!" Liu Guangfu said unhappily.
Yan Jiecheng quickly leaned against the door, preventing Liu Guangfu from closing it. He ingratiatingly said, "Please wait! Let's discuss again. Maybe we can add a little more."
"Let them come in," Zhou Xia said.
Liu Guangfu followed Zhou Xia's words and moved aside, making way for Yan Jiacheng and Yu Li to squeeze in.
After the couple came in, they made a bow and nod with a humble attitude.
“话咱们说到头里，之前的那个不算了，你要是想加入，每股多加一千块钱。”刘光福大声地说道。
“不行！最多加五百！”阎解成也大声说道。
"Guangfu, don't waste time talking to them, just open the door and let them go home!" Zhou Xia waved her hand and said.
"No, let's discuss it again, how about eight hundred?" Yu Li quickly said.
Liu Guangfu was not at all moved, pushing Yanjiecheng's couple to leave.
"Alright, alright! One thousand, just one thousand!" Yu Li finally shouted loudly.
"Exactly! If you were so decisive earlier, how great would it be! Look at how weak you are!" Liu Guangfu sneered.
"I won't waste time talking with you guys. I have acquaintances in Yangcheng who can provide a batch of recording machines. Liu Guangfu said he has connections and can handle the procedures, but it seems a bit difficult when I checked today."
Zhou Xia looked at Xu Damao and asked, "You said you have a solution, what should we do exactly?"
"Of course I can do it! But there's a condition, I need an extra 10%! Do you know why?" Xu Damao said proudly.
"Sure, no problem!" Zhang Xia readily agreed.
"Great! I will take care of this matter then! I'll bring the investment money later." Xu Damao laughed.
The moon rises higher and the sky grows darker.
Xu Damao's doors and windows are closed, several heads gather together and whisper, then separate, shadows shaking. It is evident that they are laughing triumphantly.
The next morning.
门外一阵汽车喇叭声响，早就等候在四合院门口的韩春明等人，一起围了过来。
“是刘老板派来的车子吗？”韩春明冲着司机问道。
"Yes, where does Master He live?" asked the driver.
"In the Zhongyuan Court, facing the Moon Gate, in the main hall," replied Han Chunming with a smile.
"Great! Let's all get to work!" the driver said, getting out of the car and speaking to the people inside the carriage.
"Let us help too!" Han Chunming and his friends quickly said.
"Great! Many hands make light work, let's give it our all."
A few people carried bags of pork into the courtyard.
He Yuzhu had prepared the pot ahead of time, and everyone was busy until the meat was cooked before finally taking a breath.
He Yuzhu glanced at his watch and said to Han Chunming, "Chunming, keep an eye on the pot. Turn off the heat after one hour and forty minutes, and then let it simmer for another hour. Got it! I'll leave this to you. I need to go to the factory for a round."
"You can rest assured! Is the material ready?" Han Chunming reminded again.
"You can trust me on this! I will buy whatever is needed." He Yuzhuo finished speaking, pushed the bike, and left.
When I arrived at the canteen, breakfast was already over and Liu Lan was cleaning outside.
Director Li was fired and started his own business. Liu Lan didn't want to leave with him and no longer had the same domineering energy in the factory.
食堂打扫卫生的活计，又轮到了她的身上。
好在刘岚能上能下，也不觉得有什么委屈，干的倒是不亦乐乎。
何雨柱和她打了个招呼，进了食堂大门，迎面正好碰到杨师傅出门。
"Hey, Yang, how's it going? I heard you started a business?" asked Master Yang with a smile.
"Ha! Just trying to make a living! What do we have? No education, no connections, and no funds. We only have our craftsmanship. If we don't start using it, we'll be in real trouble!" laughed Master He Yuzhu.
"You're right. It's my senior brother who opened a small restaurant. Everyone has a job, and we agreed to take turns, one person per day. Today is my turn, so I have to go there for lunch and take care of it," Mr. Yang said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Go ahead, since I'm here, you can go. We can discuss it and make a plan. After all, the canteen can't be left unattended," He Yuzhu said.
"That's right, that's right. It's okay, tomorrow I'll take turns and stay for the whole day!" Yang Master quickly replied.
"Okay, you can go now. Our cafeteria is not busy at the moment. Most people go out to eat, so there are only about one or two hundred people eating here. It's enough to have one person staying behind." He Yuzhu said as he entered the kitchen.
Mahua and Qin Jingru were busy in the kitchen with the meal preparation, even though there were fewer people eating now, but there still had to be enough food.
In case the preparation is not enough and the number of people eating suddenly increases, it will not be good.
"Master Ma, how many pots of rice should I cook?" shouted the cook Gao Jin.
Gao Jin is a temporary worker who recently joined the canteen. He hasn't been here for long, but he is tall, strong, and full of energy.
"San Guo! I'm afraid I can't finish too much." Mahua said loudly.
Hearing this, He Yuzhu sighed.
Ma Hua heard the sigh and turned around to see that it was Master He Yuzhu. He hurriedly said, "Master, why did you come over?"
