A 50-year-old man is reborn and becomes a complete slacker, leaving his scumbag children completely

Soon, Hu Xiawen and Ding Xin arrived in Shaocheng and found Hu Wangfu.

When Hu Wangfu met Hu Xiawen, he was clearly much happier than when he met Hu Wangmei.

Because Hu Wangmei was a poor relative, but Hu Xiawen was at least a city dweller, a resident, and a family with a little money.

Not to mention that Hu Xiawen also taught him a lot from a young age, letting him know what it means to live for himself to the fullest.

If it weren't for Hu Xiawen's instigation, he would still be Hu Dahai's poor son in Qunyi Brigade!

After hearing what Hu Xiawen and Ding Xin said, he became even more interested.

If he had a stable customer, why would Hu Wangfu need to secretly go to those people to buy bricks for his own home?

He could simply have Ding Xin and Hu Wangmei underreport some of the shipments, for example, saying seven when eight were actually sent, and then he could sit at home and collect the money.

With Hu Wangfu's assurance, Hu Xiawen and Ding Xin immediately went to find Li Hongyan at the address written on the business card she had given them.

Li Hongyan's office in Hangzhou is small, as it is only used as a temporary office.

But how could Hu Xiawen and Ding Xin possibly catch Li Hongyan's eye with just a business card in their hands?

These people at the bottom of society can only be sought after by those with power and money. If they want to find someone with power and money, they have to rely on luck. For example, Hu Dahai's success in entering the state-owned food factory last time was entirely due to his knowledge of Zhang Zhaoxing's detailed information, plus a bit of luck.

Sure enough, they were stopped at the door by the receptionist of Li Hongyan's office, who said that they could not enter without an appointment, but they could not make an appointment.

In fact, Li Hongyan was sitting inside, and he saw and heard what was happening outside, but he just wouldn't come out.

He sneered, "You piece of trash. You used to work for Huang Renfa, so you were of some use to me. Now that you've been fired, I won't give you a damn thing to say."

The two bumped into each other at the door.

Hu Xiawen said angrily, "It's all Hu Dahai's fault! Otherwise, you could be making easy money with Huang Renfa!"

However, it was Hu Xiawen's words that made Li Hongyan, who hadn't cared before, suddenly become serious.

He immediately came out of the office: "Hey, isn't this Ding Xin?"

"Huh?" Ding Xin looked up and realized that Li Hongyan had come out at some point.

He immediately went up to him and said, "Mr. Li, you asked me to come see you last time, but they wouldn't let me in."

"Oh, it's nothing. I'm here anyway. Come in with me." Li Hongyan naturally didn't offer him any explanation and turned to walk inside.

Ding Xin was overjoyed and quickly led Hu Xiawen inside.

After they went in, Hu Xiawen immediately started talking to Li Hongyan about Ding Xin's work and also mentioned Hu Wangfu's brickwork.

Hu Xiawen even revealed Hu Wangfu's identity.

"So this Hu Wangfu is Hu Dahai's fourth son?" Li Hongyan asked, frowning upon hearing this.

“Yes, Mr. Li, you don’t know, Hu Wangfu and Hu Dahai are mortal enemies!” Hu Xiawen slapped her thigh. She could tell that Hu Dahai and Li Hongyan had a grudge, so she vividly recounted the events between Hu Dahai and Hu Wangfu, embellishing the story, mainly focusing on how Hu Dahai was acting strangely.

Because of the fact that Hu Xiawen was behind the events at the time, she basically knew everything clearly.

"Hahaha, is that even possible?!" Li Hongyan laughed as if she were watching a show. "This Hu Dahai has done all sorts of bad things, even his own son wants to separate from him!"

"In that case, I agree to your request. Anyway, we need bricks for our construction site, so we'll buy some from you."

Li Hongyan has been holding a grudge because of what happened at the last exchange meeting and auction, so she has been looking for an opportunity to make amends these past few days, and has even lost her appetite.

After all, he was a young master who grew up in a greenhouse and had never experienced any major storms. His adversity quotient was practically zero.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Li Hongyan even thought that at a crucial moment, Hu Dahai's son, Hu Wangfu, would betray Hu Dahai and let him taste what it's like to be abandoned by everyone.

After all, in Li Hongyan's view, no father would be willing to really harm his own son. When Hu Wangfu and Hu Dahai directly fight, it will definitely be a big show, so he immediately agreed.

"That's great!" Hu Xiawen clapped his hands excitedly.

The two sides then began to negotiate on matters such as price and quantity.

Li Hongyan was quite generous and didn't make things difficult for them regarding the price.

As Hu Xiawen left Li Hongyan's side, he was completely ecstatic: "Ding Xin, our family is really going to be rich now! You'll be able to buy your own car soon and become your own transportation boss!"

.......

In Qunyi Brigade, Hu Dahai and his family finally finished building the exterior walls of their house.

Before it was painted, the entire exterior wall was a terrible sight, covered with all sorts of strange bricks of inconsistent colors.

Hu Guanbao had tried his best to control the situation and wanted the walls to be as uniform as possible, but all he could find were old, discarded, and rubbish bricks. Hu Guanbao was truly like a skilled cook without rice to cook.

Building a house like this would be a disgrace to Hu Guanbao, even to his maternal grandparents' house.

Everyone who passed by pointed and commented on the house.

"Hahaha, Hu Dahai's house is too funny. Is this what you call a house? If a strong wind comes, it will collapse."

“I used to think Hu Dahai was very smart, but now I see that he’s obsessed with money. He even cuts the cost of building a house in order to save money.”

"Is this house really habitable? Although it's so big and looks quite nice, the quality is really questionable."

Even the brigade leader, Li Wude, specifically sought out Hu Dahai for this reason.

"Oh, Dahai, I'm not trying to be mean, but what kind of house did you build? How could you build a house like this! You're not short of money."

Li Wude, looking disappointed in Hu Dahai, offered him some advice.

Bao Yuanshan happened to be at Hu Dahai's house as well, and he quickly followed up, saying, "Yes, Dahai, are you short of money? If you are, just tell me. I have some money that I can lend you."

However, Hu Dahai seemed to have thought of something. Instead of answering their questions directly, he said to Bao Yuanshan, "Yuanshan, I remember you have a bunch of wood and planks that were taken down from your old house?"

Bao Yuanshan was clearly startled by Hu Dahai's sudden change of topic, but he still nodded and said truthfully, "Yes, what's wrong? Is there a problem? I'm using this pile of wood as firewood."

Hu Dahai nodded slightly: "Yuanshan, give me all this wood. I'll use it for decorating the house!"

As he spoke, he turned to Li Wude and said, "Captain, could you also help me look around the brigade to see if anyone has any old wood or old furniture? I need them all!"

Li Wude: "......"

Bao Yuanshan: "......"

Hu Dahai chuckled: "I just like using old things."

If I remember correctly, the demolition notice will be issued in another month or so. Even if the villagers want to build houses in the demolition area now, it will be too late. But even now, Hu Dahai still has no intention of revealing this news.

He didn't even tell Bao Yuanshan. The matter was accomplished in secrecy.

Hu Dahai, who has been reborn, believes in one thing most: people are driven by profit and greed. No one can withstand the test of human nature. Never say that someone can withstand it; it just means that their test was not big enough.
