Mistake

City C has had a lot of rain this year. It's already September, and the ground is still sticky every now and then.

Xia Zhicheng's case went through a long trial in these endless rains, and Kang Siqi was not idle. He first sat on the witness stand in Xia Zhicheng's case, and soon he sat in the defendant's seat in his own bribery case.More than half of the projects and businesses in the group have either been suspended or reviewed, and funds have basically been frozen.At this time, he didn't bother to care about the difference between work and life anymore. For convenience, he directly used the home of the Gilded Yiting as an office, and usually a group of lawyers gathered at home.

On the other hand, Zhuang Ze, after taking Kang Lujie out for a trip and then back, really did what Kang Lujie wanted to do before he left, and moved back to his school staff quarters. Although he came here often, he seldom stayed overnight.

From September to the end of the year, Kang Lujie felt that she was living in an atmosphere that turned from cloudy to cloudy and cloudy to rainy.

It was depressing at first, and she didn't want to go home every weekend, afraid of hearing the arguments in the living room, and afraid of suddenly getting new bad news.However, the potential of human beings to adapt to the environment is really beyond imagination. After seeing a few more times, she can squat aside and follow the litigation materials.

Most of the lawyers gathered at home were visited by her "stepmother" and they chatted quickly.She knew that this unfortunate team of lawyers was under a lot of pressure, because Kang Siqi refused to give up defending his property, and they were so bald looking for a defense point.

She was also very worried after hearing it.

Obviously, the opinion of the legal team was consistent with Zhuang Ze's original opinion, and she personally agreed with distributing money to eliminate disasters, but she didn't have the guts to say a word of objection to her father at this time.After all, Kang Siqi, who has not smiled for several days, looks no different from a character like the King of Montenegro.What's more, she didn't want to.

Kang Siqi never gave up on anything easily, and she was not willing to interfere with him trying his best.

Until the last day of this year, someone came to the family.

Maybe it's raining a lot, and city C is also very cold this winter. When someone came to find Kang's house, he poked his head out of the iron gate and looked around, trembling all over.Zhuang Ze was here that day, and he was the first to notice the people outside. When he took a closer look, he found that it was a familiar face. Is the surname Li or Zheng?

He thought for a while, and said to Kang Siqi, "The village party secretary from Liangpo is here."

Hearing this, Kang Siqi showed a puzzled expression, muttered "Which one", and then remembered Liangpo, the village he was ambitious to build in the first half of the year.Kang Lujie, who was next to her, observed her words and immediately ran out to open the door.

As soon as the trembling village party secretary entered the door, he was startled by the scorching heat in the room. He stood at the entrance and rubbed his hands and didn't move forward. He looked very embarrassed: "Kang...Mr. Kang, where are you?"

It's definitely not a good thing to come to the door at this moment.

Kang Siqi squeezed the space between his eyebrows, stood up, motioned for Aunt Zhou to pour tea, and greeted Auntie Zhou without polite greetings, and directly made a gesture of invitation: "Secretary Li, come in."

Secretary Li is a native of Liangpo Village, with a low level of education, but he is very good at making troubles. When he was young, he struggled, but when he was old, he knew that if he wanted to get benefits, he had to find a way to let everyone in the village see the benefits. In the village, he had everything he could do, and later he was elected as the village party secretary.However, under the current policy, this person's job as the village party secretary will come to an end.

He was no longer young, and there was a patch of frost under his fur hat, his face was red and his nose was red from the cold, and he looked a little bit of a vicissitudes of life.Hearing Kang Siqi's words, he hurriedly took off his shoes and entered the living room, sat in the big chair Kang Siqi pointed to, with a slightly cautious posture, took a few sips of tea, and looked at a group of busy lawyers over there, who seemed to have beaten him a few times. Only when the manuscript was written in the belly did he open his mouth.

"Mr. Kang, I came here mainly to ask you, when will our resort be able to resume work? The young people who joined the engineering team in the village have been idle for two months, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Sending money, I also know that this matter should not be directly on your head, but everyone is really anxious... I, I thought, I have been with you anyway, you are a very good person Yes, can you..." He licked his lips, frowned, and fixed his gaze on Kang Siqi, "Give us an explanation?"

Don't come up to ask for money directly, but ask for an explanation.But at this time, the last thing Kang Siqi could give was an explanation.

He has a bit of the righteous heart left behind when he was a soldier, and he can play tricks on fellow profiteers, and he is unwilling to choose perfunctory to these villagers who hoped that he could bring a better life; but Pu An The project in the new area is too big, and the engineering team has a considerable number of people. For him whose account has been frozen for a while, it is no longer a matter of waving a salary.

He murmured for a moment, then greeted Li Zhishu: "Are you in a hurry to go back today?"

Li Zhishu shook hands with each other: "It may not be good to stay overnight."

Kang Siqi nodded, and dialed a number in front of him: "Director Song, if it's convenient, come to my house and bring the company accounts and account information, preferably Manager Lin."

After making this phone call, he said to him again: "I asked the chief financial officer and financial manager to come over. You may have heard rumors about my situation, and I will not hide it. My lawyer is busy in the living room now. I'm not sure how much the company can give you for the activities, if you don't rush to leave, just wait here, after they come over to discuss it clearly, I'll explain it to you right away."

"Hey, good!" Li Zhishu nodded again and again, with a happy expression on his face, "Mr. Kang, don't worry, I'm not here to make trouble, we are all quality people, we must be reasonable!"

Kang Siqi twitched the corners of his mouth, but instead of smiling, he simply forgot, turned his head and shouted to the kitchen: "Sister Zhou!"

Aunt Zhou ran out in response, and Kang Siqi turned around and asked Li Zhishu: "Haven't you eaten yet? Let's eat something first. If you need anything, you can find sister Zhou."

Auntie Zhou has worked in the Kang family for so long, and she understood the boss's intentions as soon as she heard it, and immediately came forward with a smile on her face, and warmly greeted Li Zhishu: "Yes, yes, there is everything in the house. You see, everyone has no day. I've been busy all night, I've been making soup! You just came in from the outside, isn't it cold?"

Really got to the bottom of his heart, Li Zhishu held up his teacup, thanked Kang Siqi with a smile, and left with Aunt Zhou.

In the living room, Kang Lujie was most concerned about the situation in the living room. Seeing that the guests had gone to the dining room, she poked Zhuang Ze quietly and blinked.Now, the tacit understanding between her and this "stepmother" should be very high. The "stepmother" looked at her, nodded her chin knowingly, and whispered: "Go."

Kang Lujie immediately dropped the materials, turned around to the bathroom first, then left the living room, and went straight to the kitchen.

Li Zhishu had already eaten, Kang Lujie also filled a bowl of soup and sat down, her eyes were smiling like crescent moons, and she spoke sweetly: "Uncle Li, I am Kang Lujie, the daughter of Mr. Kang, do you mind if I have a meal with you?" ?”

Who minds having dinner with pretty girls?Li Zhishu looked at her, stopped and stretched out his hand, and Kang Lujie also handed it over with a smile, and the two shook hands politely.The little girl's white and tender hands felt unbelievably good. The moment Li Zhishu withdrew his hand, he began to savor it secretly, and took another look at Kang Lujie, she was so cute no matter how she looked.

Kang Lujie chatted while eating: "Uncle Li, you are from Pu'an, right?"

Li Zhishu nodded, with a little pride in his words: "Liangpo, the largest fishing village in Pu'an, produces good pearls, and many of the pearls you wear are raised by us! But ah—" he shook his head and sighed, "now we raise pearls There are fewer people in the village, and there are fewer oyster farmers. Many ponds and fields have been rowed to the resort. Some people in the village have come out, and some have joined the engineering team to build the resort. explain……"

He stopped suddenly, and Kang Lujie looked at him seriously, as if he didn't care, with a concerned expression on his face: "What are you talking about? Just tell me, my dad wants to solve the problem for you, and I also want to understand the situation!"

The little girl's smile narrowed a bit, and she looked sincere. Li Zhishu put down his chopsticks, paused for a while to think, and then sighed and complained: "Everyone said that Mr. Kang may not be able to save him. It’s unfinished. But many foundations have been laid, ponds and fields have been destroyed, and it’s really not easy to re-enclose oysters and mussels!”

"There is a young man in the village. His old mother has been paralyzed on the bed for several years, and his elder sister is still mentally ill. The whole family used to rely on him to raise oysters. Now his field has been filled in and will be planted with turf in the spring. He will use it as a golf course in the future. As for myself, I am building a house in the engineering team. I have not received any money for two months, and it will be Chinese New Year. He came to me to borrow money two days ago... Alas, a tall man of 1.8 meters cried in front of me. Let the snot and tears."

"Our village has always relied on the mountains to eat the mountains, and the sea to eat the sea. The geography is pretty good. Every household is actually not poor. Everyone was reluctant to change, but Mr. Kang said that the times are changing, and we will not change. Sooner or later Being left behind, you told us very well. I also want to seek development for everyone, so I persuaded the villagers to sign your contract... There is a single man in our village who will be [-] this year. He had a leg injury in his early years , it is not convenient to do farm work, Mr. Kang was very happy when this project came, but who knows, this trip will not go well..."

Li Zhishu became more and more emotional as he talked, and he talked about several examples in a row. He didn't pick up the chopsticks after putting them down, and stopped when he said that there was movement in the living room again.

The movement in the living room was the arrival of the chief financial officer and financial manager whom Kang Siqi called just now. Both of them were also braving the cold wind and their noses were red.

Li Zhishu stared at them blankly, until he saw the two of them sitting down, then looked away, and asked Kang Lujie sadly: "Mr. Kang, can you hold me this time?"

Kang Lujie no longer had that sweet smile on her face when she just came here. Her mind was filled with these vivid stories, and her heart, which had never experienced any hardships, was quite shocked—this was the same as reading those stories about the bottom-level living conditions on Weibo. The post is different, the narrator is right in front of your eyes, the protagonist of the story is no more than three people away from her, and all of this is caused by her father, if their lives are ruined, it is because they believed in her father...

Thinking about it like this, she trembled a little, and she couldn't give a positive answer to Li Zhishu's words, so she put down her chopsticks, looked at him sincerely, and said, "Uncle Li, you eat first, wait a minute, we I must work hard to send money to everyone and live a good year. I will go over there now to listen to the situation, don't worry."

Li Zhishu pursed his lips, smiled, and regained his original harmony: "Go, go, you can help the family at such a young age, really promising!"

The promising Kang Lujie returned to the living room with mixed feelings, still sitting beside Zhuang Ze, listening to the discussion in the living room silently.

The focus of the discussion now is how to allocate a sum of money from the company's movable funds to pay the locals in the Liangpo engineering team.The two people who held the financial power in the company talked about it, and they didn't get a satisfactory result after a long time.

Kang Lujie has listened to so many discussions in the past few months, and she has a good idea of ​​the current situation. The more she hears that there is no money to be paid, the more sad she is - the matter of Pu An is not without a solution, the only obstacle is actually her Dad doesn't want to.

She was a little distracted, remembering the words she asked and answered on the plane back from other places with Zhuang Ze.

There is always a price for safety. They take advantage of the loopholes to pick up cheap things and they will always come to the day when they have to pay back. Hard work is the normal state of life. Why can't her father's hard work be let down and destroyed... Thinking too much, A heavy breath clogged her chest, and she suddenly had the feeling that she had had enough, and thought that her father would just give up.

She thought so, fixed her eyes on Kang Siqi, and said that: "Father, let's not take care of it, okay?"

As soon as the voice fell, the living room fell silent, and everyone looked at her with different expressions and thoughts.Kang Siqi's face was very dark, his brows were tightly knitted, and his eyes were a little cold.

She met such a look, returned her hand and held Zhuang Ze's wrist, as if looking for some energy, and said slowly, "Liangpo is clean, isn't it? If we don't protect those If it doesn’t belong to us, hand it over and let them confiscate it, and if the case is closed, the clean ones can be unfrozen, right?”

Kang Siqi remained silent, staring at her with cold eyes.For a moment, he slowly looked away, looked at Zhuang Ze, then scanned the people in the living room one by one, and stopped when he saw Song, the chief financial officer.

Song couldn't help but hold his breath under his stare, and after a while, he opened his mouth based on his speculation about the boss: "We have calculated the total amount handed over in full accordance with the regulations. About 30.00% of the total... However, once Pu'an starts to make money, our liquidity will be replenished quickly, and the investment in Baijiang Paradise and Baijiang Botanical Garden will also make a quick profit..."

"Understood." Kang Siqi raised his hand to interrupt, and Song immediately fell silent.

After a while, Kang Siqi propped his hands on his knees, as if he was about to get up, but he didn't really move. He was in this position, and a somewhat tired voice came out: "Then prepare new materials and make them clean. , don’t let people scrape to the bone.”

He raised his head and raised the corners of his mouth: "Everyone has worked hard for such a long time. Let's go back after discussing a similar plan today. Tomorrow New Year's Day, let's go and have fun, and we don't have to get together like this in the future. The eighth court will gather together." good."

After finishing speaking, he finally stood up on his knees, and cast his gaze out of the window, not knowing where it fell.After a while, he squeezed his forehead, turned around and walked upstairs silently.
