Chapter 56: Li Xu's Difficulties
"Mr. Chu said with a smile, I don't have any research on chess." Although Chu Quan chatted with him very speculatively, Li Xu still didn't want to have too much intersection with him, in his opinion, it was just his father's guest, nothing more.
"Although I am in Beiping, I have heard of Brother Li's name, and I believe that in a few years, you will be a person in charge." Chu Quan continued.
In the face of Li Xu's deliberate distance, Chu Quan seemed very enthusiastic, and took the initiative to call him a brother, which changed Li Xu's stereotype of these people who played piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he immediately thought that maybe it was because this Chu Quan was still young.
But he still firmly believes that he and Chu Quan are not all the way.
Still maintaining a polite distance in conversation. And Chu Quan's words just now also accidentally debuted his sore spot, about the fact that he is in charge alone, in fact, there are different voices in the family.
Originally, there were not many different voices about him, after all, he was Li Xuan's only son, and since he returned to China last year, his ability is obvious to everyone, and others will not have any other ideas, but now there are more and more other voices in the family, and his performance has made many people in the family not satisfied.
Since he saved Li Xie last time, Li Xu has always been very close to the Japanese, which is the main reason why he is not recognized.
Because of his different identity, everyone in Shanghai Tang regards him as the future successor of the Li family, and his eyebrows with the Japanese are also regarded by many people as the future direction of the Li family, which is unacceptable to many old people.
You must know that although the current situation has reached the current level, the Li family still insists on the treatment of the Japanese, and the Li family has no one to stand out, and the business matters are more dependent on the reputation and connections accumulated over the years.
And Li Xu's current behavior is not an exaggeration to say that it is deviant in their eyes.
Even his uncle Li Xie, who he saved with all his heart, was very dissatisfied with him and often talked about him.
Of course, Li Xuan didn't warn him less, but he still listened and did.
Even if he can't communicate with the Japanese openly, he will avoid the eyes of his family to get acquainted with the Japanese, and the main direction of his acquaintance is the consulate, and he has become quite familiar with the relationship with many people in the consulate these days.
Naturally, his family would not know that he actually had his own reasons for doing this, and his return to the leadership of the Central Committee made him not feel that he was a rootless duckweed, and of course he could not tell anyone about these reasons.
I can only choose to bear it silently......
Li Xu smiled slightly: "Mr. Chu said it was funny, I think I shouldn't have the situation that Mr. Chu said in a short time, my father is in good health, and ...... I still need a lot of experience......"
He didn't say much, and after the two chatted casually for a few more words, Chu Quan seemed to feel his estranged politeness, so he didn't continue to get acquainted with him, and took this opportunity Li Xu also said goodbye to Chu Quan and left Chu Quan's residence.
As soon as he went out, the driver Xiao Wang opened the car door and welcomed Li Xu.
"Young Master, shall we go home now?" Xiao Wang asked as he started the car.
In his opinion, the young master listened to the master's order to entertain the other party today, so he must have to go home to resume his life after settling down in Chu Quan.
At this time, Li Xu fell into silence, hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't go home first, let's go to the consulate first." ”
"Young master, go to the consulate again? If the master knew......" Xiao Wang couldn't help but be a little worried when he heard it.
But Li Xu's opinion was still resolute, "It's okay, when the time comes, just say that you will sit here for a while longer, and don't let them find out......"
Li Xu had already made up his mind, and Xiao Wang couldn't say anything more, so he had to start the car and head in the direction of the consulate.
In fact, Xiao Wang doesn't understand, why does the young master like to deal with the Japanese so much now, does the young master really think that Chongqing is no longer good?
Although the current situation is not good, and even the city of Chongqing is inevitably bombed by the Japanese army, most people still hope that the Japanese will get out, even if the hope of letting the Japanese get out of the country is very slim......
……
"President Yuan, I haven't seen you for a long time!" As soon as Li Xu entered the consulate, he saw Yuan Hao, who was really going out, and said without greeting.
Yuan Hao also stopped when he saw that it was Li Xu, and then smiled: "Mr. Li is going to bring us good news today?" ”
Li Xu couldn't help but laugh awkwardly when he heard Yuan Hao say this, he naturally knew what Yuan Hao said.
In fact, Li Xu has already made an agreement with Iwai, and when he handles the affairs of his family, he will take on a half-time job in the consulate, which can be regarded as a public attitude, and Li Xu's performance in this matter has always been very positive.
For this reason, Iwai and Yuan Hao are also quite good to him, in Iwai's eyes, the Liu family in Suzhou is a lesson from the past, because Liu Zipeng's attitude firmly contributed to the Liu family to openly stand on the side of the new government, which can be regarded as a private example.
And Iwai really wants to reproduce such a thing in Shanghai, and Li Xu himself is willing to cooperate.
However, Li Xu's family is still full of obstacles, so Li Xu expressed his willingness to deal with it actively, and Iwai was also willing to wait for him, and it was precisely because of this that Yuan Hao asked like this.
At this time, Li Xu could only say: "I'm afraid it's not so fast, I'm still working hard, but I'm still looking forward to working with President Yuan." ”
Yuan Hao smiled, "It's okay, I believe that with Mr. Li's ability, he will be able to handle it." ”
"Thank you, President Yuan, for your confidence, and I look forward to that day." Li Xu said.
After a brief exchange, the two parted, Li Xu prepared to visit Iwai, while Yuan Hao left the consulate......
……
Xu Baisheng returned to his office door and couldn't help stretching, he had been a little miserable recently. I can't help but want to go back to the office, lean back in my chair, take a good rest, and wait for the end of work.
But the moment he pushed the door in, a mocking voice sounded, "Section Chief Xu, where did you go?" It's really busy enough to go out several times a day......"
Xu Baisheng looked in the direction of the voice, Ye Fei was sitting in his place at this time, holding the newspaper he usually used for pastime, and joked while reading.
"Don't you know what instructions you have?" Xu Baisheng laughed and said lightly.
The fact that he subtly took himself out for the time being, while his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about this pretext......
