To get rich quickly, you need to be simple and rough

The 1950s was a passionate era, at least that's what Li Wenting thought.

The prices in the 1950s were really shocking. In 1955, the second set of currency was issued, and the currency said goodbye to the unit of ten thousand.

Li Wenting, a deputy section chief, earns 155.5 yuan in both decimal and round numbers, while Li's mother Xu Huizhen, a section chief, earns 115.5 yuan, also a high-income earner.

Li Zhiyuan not only didn't have to pay for college, but also received a subsidy of 12 yuan every month.

Knowledge changes destiny; this saying has always been true. The three members of the Li family earn enough in a month to make an average worker in the compound work for a year.

Life in the countryside is even more difficult. This is the new society without all the exorbitant taxes and levies. Farmers who can save a few dozen yuan after working hard for a year are considered first-class people.

In rural areas, labor is essential. Families with fewer sons in rural areas live a poorer life and are more likely to be bullied.

In the morning, the Li family doesn’t have to cook, and they can go out to the bun shop at the entrance of the alley to have breakfast.

The steaming hot meat buns were 8 cents each. Of course, they weren't pure meat buns, but filled with cabbage, pork, green onions, and pork.

Two-thirds vegetables, one-third meat, very juicy. A bag of meat buns costs 1.2 cents each.

The fried golden and crispy hemp twist costs 1.7 cents each. The hemp twist is as long as a child's arm. A guy with a big appetite can eat a whole hemp twist.

The three members of the Li family sat at a table, and Dad Li started ordering food.

Uncle Zhang, please bring me a basket of steamed buns stuffed with cabbage, pork, and scallions. Three bowls of sweet soy milk.

Owner of the bun shop, okay, please wait a moment, it will be ready soon.

The dumplings were just cut this morning, they are still soft and crispy when you bite them. Pour the freshly fried chili oil and Sichuan pepper oil on them, and drizzle some sesame oil on them. Oh, it’s so delicious.

I'll serve you a plate, please taste it.

Dad Li, please be polite and say that you are so sorry. I will always treat you to a delicious dish every time you come.

The shopkeeper and the Li family also made friends. After the three members of the Li family had eaten and drunk their fill, Aunt Li paid the bill.

The three of them spent 86 cents on breakfast. The key point was that Li Zhiyuan was such a big eater that the buns he ate were as big as an adult's fist.

Li Zhiyuan ate six by himself, and even then he was just barely full.

Boss Zhang's bun shop won't be around for long, as the comprehensive public-private partnership has already begun.

From now on, this place will be state-owned. It will be a dream if you want to experience such good service again.

After eating and drinking, he went straight to the office. Dad Li now has his own office.

That's how the leader's work is all day. Except when he's seeing patients, he spends the rest of his time reading newspapers and drinking tea.

Since 53, some commodities have been supplied with coupons.

Everyone in the Li family loves drinking tea. In this era, they have bought a lot of good tea and put it in the space.

Li Wenting opened a pack of Jasmine Dragon Balls, which cost nine boxes. The tea can was also a good item, made of silver on the outside and gold on the inside.

This kind of tea can holds tea leaves without losing their fragrance.

I picked up the kettle, put a dozen tea balls in the enamel pot, poured in hot water, and the aroma of jasmine filled the entire office.

Li Wenting picked up a medical book and began to read it with great interest.

There were two long knocks and two short ones at the door. A man in a Zhongshan suit pushed the door open and walked in.

Li Wenting looked up and saw Lou Bancheng and Lou Zhenhua walking in.

"Brother Wenting is always so nice," Li Wenting hurriedly stood up from his chair and greeted him. "Brother Lou, TOEFL, TOEFL, everything is fine here, my foolish brother."

Lou Bancheng looked a little haggard, with bloodshot eyes.

My mother has been feeling unwell recently, so please come to our house and take her pulse when you have time.

In fact, Li Wenting knew what Lou Bancheng was upset about.

Li Wenting knew very well about Mrs. Lou's health. She was in great shape and enjoyed everything she ate!

Lou Bancheng had something to talk to me about, but it was inconvenient to talk in the office, so he invited me to his home in the evening.

Li Wenting immediately said, Brother Lou, you are too polite. Just send the housekeeper to tell him about this.

The old lady's health is very important, and I will go to see her on time after get off work.

Lou Bancheng's expression relaxed a bit. Li Wenting was a kind man. Even after losing power, he hadn't distanced himself from this capitalist. He was still so gentle and polite.

Lou Bancheng said some polite words and left.

Li Wenting blew away the tea leaves and sipped the tea.

Drinking tea makes you hungry, so Li Wenting took out a milk cake from his space and put it in his desk drawer. He felt very comfortable taking a sip of tea and a bite of the cake.

Being a leader is so comfortable. If you don’t bother others, no one will dare to disturb you.

Li Wenting's office is kept clean every day and the thermos is always full of hot water.

The newly assigned young doctors are very diligent.

Vice President Li was making his ward rounds, and he was followed by a group of people, including the department director, attending physicians, and residents, all holding notebooks and taking notes.

When I go to the cafeteria to eat at noon, the chef who serves the food will always give me two full spoons of food.

No one would dare to commit Parkinson's in front of the dean.

That’s not all. The chef’s spoon seemed to have eyes. The vegetarian dishes were all dry goods, and most of the meat dishes were meat.

Li Wenting had plenty of food, and when he saw the young doctors in the hospital were not full, he would often share half of his food with them.

The young man is eating up his father's wealth. Leaders cannot be arrogant. They must integrate with the people.

As a leader, you have a stern face every day. How can you have a mass base? It is also easy to offend people.

Li Wenting's popularity in the hospital is really excellent.

The top leader, Dean Han, was sent down from above. He used to be an old military doctor in the army and is a very cheerful person.

Li Wenting has a good relationship with the top leader. As long as you have no intention of usurping power, the relationship between superiors and subordinates is always easy to get along with.

Li Wenting was quite satisfied with his current situation. He was a moderately high-ranking official, and he kept a low profile. When trouble came, no one would fight him to the death.

If you spend those ten years steadily, victory will be not far away.

I spent the whole day wandering around and got off work on time at 4pm.

Li Wenting came to Lou's house on his bicycle, carrying a medicine box.

After taking Mrs. Lou's pulse, Li Wenting prescribed a prescription and was invited into Lou Bancheng's study.

Lou Bancheng sighed, "Brother Wenting, I won't hide it from you. Your life is not easy these days."

I remember that we worked together for a long time and never had a quarrel. Tell me the truth, what should I do next?

Li Wenting touched his chin and said, "It's nothing for now."

But for the long term, we should change the place.

Lou Bancheng's eyes filled with tears. Has it really come to this? It's hard to leave my hometown. Three generations of my brother's family business and hard work are all in this city.

Wenting, do you think it would be feasible for me to marry a poor and lower-middle peasant?

Li Wenting waved his hand and said, "It's useless. Don't let Xiao'e suffer."

This is essentially a class issue and cannot be solved by marriage.

Although it is hard to leave one's hometown, there will always be a day when we can reunite.

People move and live, trees move and die, and the southern Hong Kong Island can be settled.

Brother Wenting, what are your plans?

So Li Wenting analyzed the situation in Hong Kong and the investment prospects for Lou Bancheng.

Lou Bancheng nodded frequently as he listened. Anyone who could reach Lou Bancheng's stature was no vacillating individual.

This public-private partnership isn't a long-term solution, and I can't keep the dividends for long. It would be better to dispose of all the assets.

When he went to Hong Kong Island to start a new business, he finally realized that the Red Party no longer allowed private economy and had begun to issue various tickets one after another.

Everything should go according to plan. It would be a shame to leave too late and then be liquidated.

Li Wenting also wanted to break up the ill-fated couple Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e as soon as possible.

It would avoid causing chaos and delaying the progress of the mission. Besides, since I can't go to Hong Kong Island, I can invest in Lou Bancheng.

Wouldn't it be nice to get some original shares? I still have a lot of US dollars to throw away in my space.

Back then, we robbed the vaults of ten Japanese banks. We have processed a lot of it over the years, but there is still a lot left that we have no place to spend it.

It's just right for investment. Lou Bancheng is an old-fashioned capitalist. Although he can't be said to be a very good person, he is absolutely trustworthy.

When Li Wenting revealed this idea, Lou Bancheng of course agreed without hesitation. Of course, American dollars would be popular when he went out.

I was just worrying about this when Brother Wen Ting agreed to help me exchange some US dollars. It was like someone giving me a pillow while I was sleeping.

He also invested in himself, which shows that Brother Wen Ting recognizes himself, and also shows that Hong Kong Island has great potential. Who is willing to spend real money to play with you?

The two talked in the study for four hours, and Li Wenting also made planning suggestions for Lou Bancheng's industries in Hong Kong Island.

It was ten o'clock in the evening. Li Wenting, carrying his medicine box, rode his bicycle back to the courtyard.
