Expanding on the construction and development of the Chinese village, the two men squatted at the door and went into a lengthy discussion.
After they had been talking about it for some time, Da Mao walked out, disenchanted.
Li Du noticed that he was in a bad mood and asked, "What's up? If there's anything you need help with, tell us."
Da Mao forced a smile and said, "No problem. I got Master Liu to continue to help me with the investigation. Master Liu said that he would be able to do that. There's no need to trouble you, boss."
Hearing that, Li Du stood up and squeezed Da Mao's shoulder. He did not ask further questions.
Everyone had their own private stories. Everyone had their own concerns. Although Da Mao spoke casually most of the time, he was a smart man. He had a clear judgment of things and Li Du respected his decision.
