Chapter 553: The He Family's Network
"Banxia, what's going on? Let's go in!"
Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen had just taken their luggage out of the trunk and were about to walk into the hotel when they noticed that Xu Banxia looked a little strange and asked with concern.
"sister in law!"
Xu Banxia quickly explained,
"The steel I bought from the north was detained at customs!"
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen were also stunned.
They didn't expect that even at the last step, they would get stuck at customs!
"Don't worry!"
Xu Huizhen was calm, and after a moment's thought, she said,
"Well, let's go over there first. You give Dad a call and see if he knows anyone who might be able to help solve this problem!"
When it comes to this kind of problem, ordinary people have no choice but to use their connections to smooth things over.
Although, they didn't know what exactly happened.
"Too!"
Hearing this, Xu Banxia suddenly understood.
Yes, how could I have forgotten the old man at home!
The old man is very powerful in the city. Although this is Heihe, a friend of a friend might be able to help!
Thinking of this, Xu Banxia stopped the taxi driver who was about to leave. The three of them put their luggage at the hotel first, then got back in the taxi and headed towards the customs.
At this time, He Daqing was lying on the sofa at home, watching TV boredly.
I'm old and don't like to move around.
This year's Chinese New Year can be said to be the quietest in all these years.
The son and daughter-in-law all have their own careers to take care of. Even Qin Jingru, the sister-in-law, had to work overtime in advance because of the hot sales of clothing during the Chinese New Year this year.
In short, the younger generations are all busy with their own things, and he is the only old man who is idle and bored.
"Hey?"
At this moment, the mobile phone placed beside him rang and He Daqing answered the call.
"Dad, I'm Pinellia!"
Xu Banxia's voice came from the phone.
He Daqing snorted, this was a problem.
He Daqing had a rough idea of what had happened to Xu Banxia.
After all, according to the plot of the original novel, Xu Banxia's trip to the north can be said to be full of twists and turns.
First, I was cheated out of a lot of money, and then the scammer got away.
Xu Banxia searched there for a long time and finally got some steel. But after returning home, he found that the market price of steel had plummeted due to excessive production. As a result, Xu Banxia suffered a lot of losses.
Young people just love to make trouble.
"Well, what happened?"
He Daqing said helplessly.
After all, she is my daughter-in-law, so I have to help her when it is necessary.
"Dad, the goods I bought from the north were detained by customs. What should I do now?"
Xu Banxia said anxiously,
"I don't know if you know this person here, I don't know what to do!"
"Customs!"
He Daqing pondered for a moment. He really didn't know anyone there.
However, he also guessed what happened.
"I don't know him, but maybe your brother Yi Miao can help. Ask him!"
"What? Brother Yi Miao?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Banxia was also stunned and a little surprised.
Yi Miao has been busy running a travel agency in recent years, so he naturally knows a lot of people, but... he can't help them solve this kind of problem, right?
He Daqing reminded,
"Don't forget, Yi Miao and Yu Hao both served in the military. So, you should ask Yu Hao first, and then ask Yi Miao. Maybe one of their comrades is working there."
"So that's it!"
Xu Banxia suddenly understood.
Yes, although He Daqing's network of relationships is relatively large, in fact, He Yuhao and Yi Miao have also made many friends because of their military service, but because they are in other places, they don't seem to use them on weekdays.
But after being reminded by He Daqing, Xu Banxia suddenly thought that He Yuhao had a comrade-in-arms from the Northeast, who might be able to help!
"Thank you, Dad. I'll call Yuhao right now!"
Xu Banxia quickly hung up the phone and dialed He Yuhao's number again.
At this time, He Yuhao was working in a steel company. He was quite surprised to hear his wife's voice.
"Hey, Banxia, what's the matter with you calling me?"
He Yuhao has also been quite anxious recently.
The price of steel in the market is getting lower and lower day by day, which means that the profits for his steel plant are getting smaller and smaller.
But he couldn't tell Xu Banxia about this, so as not to make this woman worry.
He Yuhao didn't expect that Xu Banxia would call him today, but considering the time, he should be back home by now, right?
"Yuhao, this is it..."
Sitting in the taxi, Xu Banxia briefly told He Yuhao what had just happened.
"Yuhao, do you know anyone here? I remember your comrade seems to be right here!"
"This..."
He Yuhao also fell silent.
He also didn't expect that the batch of goods his wife had gone to great lengths to buy were now stuck at customs.
He Yuhao blinked his eyes.
"My comrade is indeed over there, but he's just an ordinary train station manager and can't help much. So, I'll contact him first and ask him to accompany you. I'll also ask Miaozi, he has more comrades over there than I do, maybe he can help!"
Although he and Yi Miao joined the army in the same year, they were not in the same company and knew different people.
He Yuhao hung up the phone and called Yi Miao again, recounting everything that had just happened.
"Is that so? Then I'll ask around for you. As for whether I can be of any help, I can't say for sure!"
Yi Miao was also quite surprised when he heard this.
Today, he is successful in his career and his travel agency is getting bigger and bigger.
But he also knew that his family had helped a lot over the years. Now that He Yuhao's wife was in trouble, he, as a brother who had grown up with her, naturally could not sit idly by.
So Yi Miao took out his address book and looked through it one by one.
Finally found a comrade-in-arms named Qi Yue.
This Qi Yue had a good relationship with him when they were in the army.
After retiring from the army, he seemed to be assigned to work in a customs office in Northeast China, but he was not sure which customs office it was.
However, these days, not everyone has a mobile phone.
The He family has one each because they are all in business and need a phone to transmit information at any time. But for most families, in this day and age, it is good enough to have a landline phone.
Yi Miao dialed the number in the address book.
At the same time, Xu Banxia, Xu Huizhen and the other two had already taken a taxi and arrived at the customs.
"Oh my, Mr. Xu, you're finally here!"
Wu Jianshe and several others were also at the customs. They had been waiting for this batch of goods since they returned to China, so they had been waiting here. However, they never expected that something would go wrong just when the delivery was about to begin.
Look at what a mess this has caused.
It is really difficult to make money abroad.
