The name Gao Shenghai is a well-known name in Wude City because he has been the top leader of the Economic Committee for a long time and was later promoted to the city leader.

When Gao Shenghai was in power, Cao Dai'an was also in power. From the 80s to the early 90s, department stores were also very popular.

So as soon as Cao Rui raised Shenghai, Cao Dai'an knew it immediately, and Cao Rui asked:

"Dad, did you and Mayor Gao have any interactions back then?"

Cao Dai'an frowned, thought for a long time, and shook his head:

"There should be no interaction. He is the leader of the city. Our county company has no chance to contact them..."

Cao Dai'an thought carefully for a while: "But there is one thing that impressed me deeply. I used the money from the department store to purchase a cart of good strips of wood in Yongping!

At that time, Yongping's timber was relatively famous. This truckload of timber was requested by the leaders of the municipal company. It is said that the last truckload of timber was used to build a house for Mayor Gao's parents. "

When Cao Rui heard about this, he said:

"Dad, that's great! That's it. Mayor Gao's daughter is now a member of the Standing Committee of the county. Didn't I take the deputy subject recently?

In the Radio, Film and Television Bureau, I was promoted to a powerful office director, and the leaders also valued me. I didn’t understand what was going on before!

Now that I have figured out the situation, it turns out that Minister Gao helped me..."

"Dad, I went through many connections, and finally found Mayor Gao Lao's phone number through a friend of mine who is the webmaster of the Provincial Daily News Station in Wude!

Can you please make this phone call and report this matter to the old mayor? We should be grateful for the benefits we have received..."

When Cao Rui said this, Cao Dai'an immediately said:

"That's right! I must thank you for this. I'll call right away..."

Cao Dai'an immediately dialed the number. After the call was connected, Cao Dai'an called the old mayor, and then thanked Minister Gao Yi for taking care of his son.

It was more than ten years ago when Gao Shenghai became the mayor. He did so many things and knew so many people in that era. He knew quite a few people here in Yongping. How could he be remembered by everyone?

But Gao Shenghai really knew about the load of wood that Cao Dai'an mentioned. Besides, both of them are retired now, and the difference in their status before has faded.

Cao Dai'an took the initiative to ask about Gao Shenghai's current physical condition. As soon as the conversation started, the conversation turned quite speculative. Gao Shenghai had diabetes and his other conditions were fine. In addition, his wife had passed away, and living alone in a small courtyard seemed lonely.

After chatting for half an hour and hanging up the phone, Cao Dai'an sighed:

"The leader was still friendly at that time. He clearly remembers the load of wood that year. Such a small favor has actually benefited you..."

Cao Rui laughed dumbly, knowing in his heart that these things had nothing to do with the load of wood.

Even Gao Yi's matter has nothing to do with Gao Shenghai. Cao Rui has been thinking about how to fight back recently. After thinking about it, only Tong Yun gave Cao Rui an inspiration.

Cao Rui took the initiative to mention Gao Shenghai last time. He thought that Cao Dai'an and Gao Shenghai had crossed paths before, which led Cao Rui to get involved with Gao Yi!

With the presence of Gao Shenghai, Cao Rui came up with a plan of thirty-six out of nothing. He did not expect that Cao Dai'an used this plan and the effect was beyond imagination.

Cao Dai'an had a good chat with Gao Shenghai. Not only did he find out Mayor Gao's situation, but he also found out the location of the nursing home where Mayor Gao currently lives.

After a dinner, Cao Rui immediately made arrangements. He bought bacon, tea, and tartary buckwheat wine, Yongping's local specialty. In addition, Gao Shenghai had diabetes, and Cao Rui asked someone to buy good wild kudzu. Fen, Qian Qianliu, anyway, it cost four to five hundred yuan, which is almost half a month's salary of Cao Rui, to buy all the gifts.

Then Cao Rui immediately rushed to the city with these things and went directly to Gao Shenghai.

After meeting Gao Shenghai, Cao Rui said that he was the son of Cao Dai'an and that he was here to see the old mayor at his father's request. He heard that the old mayor had diabetes, so he brought Yongping's wild kudzu powder and bought some. In addition to golden willow, there are also things like tartary buckwheat.

Gao Shenghai is very enthusiastic. He is a bit older than Cao Dai'an, he will be seventy years old soon.

He has this level, and the place where he lives has unique and good conditions, but he is still lonely when he is old.

"They like dancing, singing, and some even travel in groups! I don't like them either. I just like to be quiet. I just read some books and write something by myself..." Gao Shenghai chatted with Cao Rui, and they talked about common ground. Interested.

Cao Rui also likes to write and be quiet.

Gao Shenghai took Cao Rui to the study room. Cao Rui actually saw Go in the study room. Cao Rui said he would play a game of chess with Gao Shenghai. The old man was immediately as happy as a child.

"Oh, that's great! My biggest hobby in life is to play a few games of chess, but looking at the entire sanatorium, there is not a single decent opponent!

Xiao Cao, it would be great if you can play chess. Come on, come on, kill a game quickly! "

Cao Rui came to the nursing home at ten o'clock in the morning, and it was already dark when he returned! I stayed with Gao Shenghai all day long, coaxing the old man into a happy mood, and he was still reluctant to leave when he left.

Gao Shenghai is on the line, and Cao Rui has another important thing now, which is the business he is planning to do with Hu Li.

The old man in Hu Li's family has been a leader in the railway department for decades. He has a strong relationship and responds quickly to Cao Rui. Through Hu Li's relationship, trains are not a big deal and can be arranged at any time.

Hu Li gave Cao Rui the phone number of the leader of the Wude Railway Bureau. Cao Rui called to explain his intention. The other party was very generous and asked if one trip a week would be enough?

Cao Rui calculated that even if Yongping's railway was not a heavy-duty railway, a general coal train could only carry 20 carriages at most, which is calculated as 60 tons of coal per carriage.

Cao Rui was able to get 1200 tons of coal in a week.

A ton of coal earns 50 yuan, which is 6 to 12 yuan a week. This is 03. A house in Yongping County currently only costs tens of thousands yuan. After this business is completed, Cao Rui can buy a house a week. suite?

Of course, to make money, you have to share it with others, and to make this happen, you also have to consider principal issues, sales channel issues, capital turnover issues, and coal storage sites.

Cao Rui now only has more than [-] yuan on hand. A train of coal does not include the cost of the train. The cost of Yamamoto alone is hundreds of thousands. This is a difficult problem to solve.

Cao Rui cannot solve these problems personally, and he cannot show his face. He must find a reliable partner. The person he currently values ​​​​is Wang Hua, also known as "Wang Qi".

This person can do things well, but his luck is a bit unlucky. The key is to know the basics.

Wang Hua would give Cao Dai'an a cigarette on the second Dragon Boat Festival every year. This matter was very particular.

Wang Hua just started working. At that time, it was popular to worship teachers in state-owned enterprises. Wang Hua worshiped Cao Dai'an as his teacher and called him master. That day was the Second Dragon Boat Festival, so every year, Wang Hua would thank his teacher on that day.

Time flies, it has been more than ten years since the department store collapsed, and Wang Hua’s thank you ceremony has not been interrupted...
