I was a daigou in the 60s

When Su Zhilan and her daughter came out of the bathroom, they were stunned by the delicious food in front of them.

"Wow."

The daughter exclaimed.

"Dad, what is this?"

Her eyes were full of curiosity as she carefully climbed onto the chair.

He carefully observed the lobster on the plate and gently touched it with his fingers.

“This is garlic lobster.”

Xiao Dongqing explained with a smile.

The daughter asked again what lobster was, and Xiao Dongqing picked up a lobster with a smile.

He skillfully peeled the shell, pinched off the tail, picked up a small piece of tender shrimp meat and put it into his daughter's mouth.

As soon as my daughter finished eating the shrimp, she immediately said happily.

"Lobster is delicious, Dad."

Xiao Dongqing encouraged his daughter to eat more, while he continued to peel the shrimps attentively.

Su Zhilan noticed that there was more than just lobster on the table.

There are also delicious eels, all of which seem particularly luxurious for their family.

"Where do these lobsters and eels come from?"

Su Zhilan asked in surprise.

"I bought it from the seafood market. Lobsters are not expensive right now, only two yuan per pound."

Xiao Dongqing replied.

"Two dollars is still money! There are at least three pounds of lobster here."

"Including the eel, this meal will cost at least fifteen yuan. Can't you save some money?"

Su Zhilan complained, obviously she was not used to this kind of consumption.

“Isn’t the purpose of making money to enjoy life?”

Xiao Dongqing asked back.

“That’s a bit crooked.”

Su Zhilan sat down, feeling mixed emotions.

She had always been a frugal person, and seeing such a meal.

She felt it was a waste, but was also relieved that her daughter enjoyed the meal.

It was a contradictory feeling, but she knew that occasional indulgence was also a manifestation of love.

"Did you build the factory yourself?"

Su Zhilan wanted to change the subject and asked about the family's financial resources.

Xiao Dongqing knew that the factory Su Zhilan was talking about was the busy mechanized assembly line.

He nodded and said lightly.

"Yes, I built it myself."

“I’ve been to the factory.”

Su Zhilan continued.

"It's filled with machines, Liang Zheng told me."

"Those soymilk machines are imported from abroad, each one costs 500 yuan, and you actually bought 20 of them!"

There was confusion and worry in her eyes.

"Where on earth did you get so much money?"

Su Zhilan frowned, her uneasiness gradually deepening.

Worried that her husband might be involved in something illegal.

Xiao Dongqing noticed his wife's doubts and explained while peeling shrimp.

"Don't worry, I didn't do anything illegal. This money was borrowed."

Xiao Dongqing certainly can't say that it was a rebate from his purchasing group,

I could only make up a random excuse.

“Who would lend you so much money?”

Su Zhilan questioned, finding her husband's words unbelievable.

"You have to make up a convincing excuse."

"Someone is willing to lend me money, which means they believe I can make more money to pay them back."

Xiao Dongqing fed his daughter a piece of shrimp meat, and then said mysteriously to Su Zhilan.

"I'm going to give you a car next week."

"Since when did you start liking to brag?"

Su Zhilan rolled her eyes in disdain and continued to peel shrimp for her daughter, ignoring Xiao Dongqing.

At this moment, the ringing of the phone broke the silence in the room.

Xiao Dongqing picked up the microphone and heard Liang Zheng's urgent voice.

"Dongqing, something terrible has happened! All the soymilk machines in the factory have been smashed. It was Zhang Hong who did it!"

Xiao Dongqing heard the chaotic noise in the background and asked calmly.

"Is it Zhang Hong who is causing the trouble? Don't worry, let Shen Zhong come back and don't let him fight the other party head-on."

"Let Zhang Hong smash it and put the most expensive thing in front of him."

"Why?"

Liang Zheng was surprised.

"Do as I say. I'll be right there."

Xiao Dongqing hung up the phone, quickly got up and left home.

Before leaving, he turned around and said to Su Zhilan.

"Leave me a bed. I'll be home tonight."

Without waiting for Su Zhilan's response, he closed the door and disappeared into the night.

Su Zhilan felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart, but she didn't want to care about Xiao Dongqing's affairs anymore.

She felt upset every time she thought about the smell of perfume on her husband's shirt.

She continued to peel shrimp for her daughter, listening absentmindedly to her daughter's voice.

"Mom, lobster is really delicious, don't you want to eat it?"

"If you like it, eat more."

As Su Zhilan spoke, her hands continued to serve her daughter.

The daughter looked up at her mother sweetly, as if she could sense that her mother was worried.

She picked up a piece of peeled shrimp from the bowl and gently put it into Su Zhilan's mouth.

In an instant, the delicious taste bloomed on Su Zhilan's taste buds, surprising her.

"What is this? Why is it so delicious?"

Su Zhilan opened her eyes wide, full of confusion.

“This is a lobster.”

The daughter opened her eyes wide and said happily.

Su Zhilan had never tasted lobster before. She had heard that its meat was dry and had a strong fishy smell.

I didn't expect to eat such fresh and juicy lobster today.

Xiao Dongqing's craftsmanship completely overturned her imagination.

It seems that seeing it with your own eyes and tasting it with your own mouth is the most authentic experience.

……

There was chaos inside the factory.

The machinery and equipment were smashed to pieces, as if a storm had swept through.

Zhang Hong led a group of people, like a group of out-of-control beasts, wantonly destroying the factory.

"Xiao Dongqing! Come out here!"

Zhang Hong roared, his voice full of anger.

Just then, Xiao Dongqing walked in calmly with a barely perceptible smile on his face.

"Hey, Mr. Zhang, how come you have time to come here? Come, have a cigarette."

Zhang Hong pushed away the cigarette handed to him by Xiao Dongqing, his eyes red, and almost pounced on him.

"How dare you appear before me? Are you tired of living?"

"This is my place, you should be the one looking for me, right?"

Xiao Dongqing said pretending to be innocent.

This sentence was like adding fuel to the fire, making Zhang Hong even angrier.

"Brothers, come on! Teach him a lesson!"

"Who dares to move?"

Shen Zhong shouted loudly and rushed out with a knife in his hand.

His men also drew their weapons and prepared to fight.

The two sides were on the verge of a fight, and the air was filled with tension, as if it was about to break out.

Liang Zheng was trembling beside him, worried about Xiao Dongqing.

"Mr. Zhang, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Dongqing asked with a frown, pointing at the destroyed machines.

"Aren't these all your masterpieces?"

"Of course I did it! How about it!"

Zhang Hong roared.

"Mr. Zhang, are you crazy? This is our common asset."

"How can you continue to do business if you keep doing this?"

Xiao Dongqing said dissatisfiedly.

"Doing business? Dream on!"

Zhang Hong sneered.

"If you don't want to continue the partnership, just withdraw your investment and leave. Why ruin everything?"

"We agreed that each of us would hold half of the shares, and I also have a share of these machines."
