Chapter Seventy-Eight: Bad News

After the integration was completed, Carrefour began to slowly get on the right track, although there is still a run-in period, but the effect is still obvious. The three newly added stores have the farm as a logistics supply base, and the customer flow has increased significantly, and there is a trend of turning losses into profits.

As for the store in Yunmeng Villa, it is expected to open on Arbor Day because it has been closed and needs to be renovated and recruited staff. These are all jobs that belong to Jia Lin, and Li Dong is completely idle.

"Jingle bell ......" is when the phone rings.

"Little Five, I'm going to answer the phone." Li Dong was also surprisingly lazy, and he didn't even want to take a few steps.

The little girl excitedly ran over to pick up the phone, this is the "entertainment" she has fallen in love with recently, and every time she has to chat with the person on the other end of the phone.

"Hey, who are Nong looking for?" The little girl said in a milky voice.

"Uh, is this the phone number of Li Kang's house?" The person on the other end of the line was obviously surprised, and cautiously confirmed.

"I don't know, who is Li Dang?" Usually no one calls Father Li at all, and the little girl only knows the names of A-Niang and Daguo.

"Huh? No, the number is right, who are you, kid? The person on the other side checked the phone number again and found that it was still correct.

"It's even a little rain, hehe, I'm going to hang up the phone." The little girl saw that she was not looking for A-Niang and Daguo, and decisively prepared to end the conversation.

"Wait a minute, you're a little five, I'm your uncle." The person on the other side suddenly reacted, isn't this the little girl of the old family.

"Uncle? Then you wait a while, I'll call Daguo to answer the phone. After speaking, the little girl put down the phone and ran quickly to Daguo's bedroom, shouting as she ran: "Daguo, Daguo, it's the uncle's phone." ”

Li Dong was a little surprised, uncles usually write to contact, after all, it's not a big deal, so it's cheap and affordable. Why did you suddenly remember to call today, is there something urgent, thinking of this, Li Dong quickly ran over and picked up the phone:

"Hey, uncle, I'm Li Dong."

"It's Dongzi, where is your father?" Uncle was a little anxious in his tone.

"My dad has something to do, uncle, do you have anything? It's the same with me. ”

Since arriving in the capital, Li's father has been following his wife, acting as a driver and bodyguard, and occasionally learning about the scrap business in his hometown through the phone. Recently he was inspecting the market and preparing to start a new business in the capital.

"Dongzi, Uncle is at the train station now, can you come and pick up Uncle?" Uncle replied.

"No problem, uncle, you just stay at the exit of the train station, don't run around, I'll be there in half an hour." Li Dong instructed.

"Okay, then we'll talk later." The uncle hung up the phone quickly, and the phone bill for just a few minutes made him feel distressed.

"Grandma, my uncle has come to the capital, I'll pick him up." Li Dong took the car keys, said hello to his grandmother and set off.

Half an hour later, Li Dong arrived at the train station, and soon found the uncle squatting on the ground at the exit.

"Uncle, wait a minute." Li Dong stepped forward to help the uncle lift the luggage.

"It's okay, where is your father, why isn't he at home?" Uncle seems to have come from Father Li.

"My dad and he accompanied my mother to the store, and he will be back at noon." Li Dong explained a little.

When he came to the parking lot, Li Dong opened the trunk and put all the uncle's luggage into it. The uncle was obviously a little stunned, and he didn't understand what was going on.

"Dongzi, what are you?"

"Oh, uncle, this is my family's car, it's not convenient." Li Dong explained casually.

"Ah, you have a car in your house?" Although the uncle knew that the old family had made a fortune, he never expected it to be like this.

"Hehe, it's not much." Li Dong can only be modest, otherwise he will show off his wealth, especially in front of the elders, and the impact will not be good.

Li Dong opened the car door for the uncle, and waited for him to get into the car before getting into the driver's seat. In order to take care of the uncle, the speed of the car is not very fast, and the time is not in a hurry anyway.

"Uncle, do you have anything to do with coming to the capital this time, why don't you say it in advance?" Li Dong asked curiously.

"Alas, Dongzi, your grandfather is dying, I came to find your father and your sixth uncle to go back." Uncle said in a low voice.

Li Dong was shocked when he heard this, and almost drove the car into the green belt, but fortunately, the speed was not fast, so it did not cause an accident.

"What, didn't you say that your body was okay during the New Year?" Li Dong hurriedly asked. In the past two years, the conditions of my grandfather's house have improved a lot, and coupled with the filial piety of Li's father from time to time, according to Li's father, he can walk on the ground.

"It's all fate, your grandfather accidentally fell a few days ago, and the doctor said that I am afraid that I will not be able to pass this level. Your grandfather also knew that his time was running out, so he specially asked me to come and pick up your father and sixth uncle back, wanting to see him for the last time. Uncle replied in a low tone.

The car was quiet for a while, and Li Dong didn't know what to say. He and his grandfather are not very close, and they can see each other once a year during the Spring Festival, so don't expect him to be sad.

"Uncle, I know where the sixth uncle's family lives, why don't I accompany you to it in the afternoon?" Li Dong suggested.

"Really? How do you know his address, is your sixth uncle okay? The uncle was a little surprised, he was angry at the time, but he didn't tell the boss the address.

"I met them occasionally on the street, so I went to their house and sat down. As for life, you'll know when you go, and I don't want to say much. Li Dong replied lightly, he is a junior, and it is not good to comment on the elders.

"Forget it, I know it's going to be a good thing, I hope he can go back to see him for your grandfather's sake, and I won't care if he is dead or alive in the future." Uncle is also an understanding person, Li Dong knows a little bit.

After chatting and chatting, he returned to Yunmeng Villa, and Li Dong took his uncle to get a temporary pass, also for the convenience of entering and exiting. When he arrived at the door, the uncle was stunned, and the wealth of the old family was completely beyond his imagination.

"Uncle him, welcome, welcome." Grandma and grandpa saw that the uncle had arrived, and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

"Uncle is good, uncle is ......" The little girl also opened her mouth to call people on the side.

"Cousin, cousin, hello, I didn't bother you, did I?" The uncle is a little restrained, and the grandfather has not been in vain for more than a year, and he is becoming more and more like a city person.

"Where is there anything to disturb, you are here, the house is also lively, usually Li Dang and they are busy, and we are quite bored at home." Grandma said with a smile on her face, seeing people from her hometown, she had a natural sense of intimacy.

"It's better to be busy, it's better to make money than anything else." Uncle was moved.

"Okay, I've packed up the room, let's go, let's go have a look." Grandma led everyone to the second floor, and she had just cleaned up the guest room: "Uncle He, are you still satisfied?" If there is anything we are not used to, we will change it. ”

"No, no, it's much better than at home, it's bothering my cousin." Uncle said politely, closing his eyes and knowing that his heart was ten times better than his own.

"That's okay, Uncle He, you take a rest first, this train is also tired, let's have a good drink at noon." Grandpa rarely met a drinking friend, and he had long been thinking about the bottles of good wine at home.

Uncle is not the kind of person who is very sociable, so he agreed to push the boat down the river, and it just happened that he could be more comfortable.

Back on the first floor, Li Dong told the uncle's intention, and his grandmother said in a loud voice: "Evil, you said that this day is just a little better, why did this accident happen?" ”

Grandpa also immediately went to call his eldest daughter, and because he didn't know where they were, he could only call the store one by one and leave a message asking them to return quickly.
