Mrs. Guo was not seen in the study room. The smile on Director Guo's face had long since disappeared, and his expression became worse and worse. After a while, he put down the phone gloomily and sat dejectedly on the office chair.
There was movement at the door. Mrs. Guo opened the door and her precious son Guo Junjie came back. "Mom, my dad is back? I saw his car. Is the matter done?"
"You haven't received a letter from your second aunt yet. Your dad is answering the phone. Maybe it's your second aunt who is here."
"Then I'll go ask." Guo Junjie couldn't wait for a moment. He had been in prison for three full years. His father didn't want to tell the truth and refused to commute his sentence. Just because of his reputation as a selfless person, he had always been resentful. It wasn't until he knew his father's plan that he stopped making trouble and waited for his father to relieve his anger.
His father's state made him a little confused, and he always had a feeling of something bad.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Director Guo opened his eyes and looked at his son with very complicated emotions. After a short silence, he said, "Go and call your mother in...".
"What are you talking about?" Mrs. Guo screamed, "She is stupid, she dares to say such a thing! It can't be true, can it?"
Director Guo nodded feebly, "That's what my people said. There is something weird about this matter. Now that Director Kang has launched an investigation, we don't have much time."
Director Guo's expression was unusually gloomy. In the past few years, things have gone smoothly. He not only stabilized his position, but also made great progress. But now, one mistake may lead to catastrophe. Just got the news that the second sister was out of the trap and had been detained by Director Kang. Fortunately, he had a backup plan and the news came out in time.
"Is it serious?" The man's look made Mrs. Guo a little panicked. She had never seen him like this even when her son was in trouble.
"Well, if this matter is not handled well, the consequences will be serious. The second sister probably won't be able to save it, and that's me. Well, let's put it this way, if the second sister can't handle it, I probably won't be able to escape either."
"Dad, how could this happen? Didn't you say it's foolproof? How could this happen?" Guo Junjie was also dumbfounded. Within a few minutes, his mood fluctuated greatly. He couldn't bear the gap.
"Lao Guo, if you tell the truth, what will happen to our family?" Mrs. Guo was really panicked when she saw a man so decadent for the first time.
Director Guo shook his head, "I don't know exactly how far it will go, but things will definitely be quite troublesome. I know Director Kang. He wants to do something even if he has nothing to do. Such a big deal falls into his hands..."
Director Guo's words made Mrs. Guo no longer able to remain calm. In her position, she had also seen many major events. Since the man said this, the consequences must be unimaginable, especially now.
"Lao Guo, you should make up your mind."
"What ideas can I have? Maybe, the investigation team will come to me in two days." Director Guo looked at his son who was standing aside stupidly. All of this was caused by this bastard. It's a pity that he is like this. It took several years of hard work to see the results.
"Otherwise, you can find a noble person. If she says something, this matter should be put down. Director Kang, won't he listen to her?"
Director Guo shook his head, "You don't know much about this person's temper. If she knows that we are using her trust to do small things below, the consequences will only be worse, unless..."
"You should tell me, unless what? It's already this time, and you're still hesitating and half-talking. Is it interesting?" Mrs. Guo was really anxious.
"Unless we can find Taoist Priest Qingxuan and ask her to come forward, it might be of some use. Don't count on anything else."
Mrs. Guo looked confused, "Taoist Priest Qingxuan, I haven't shown up for several years. Where can I find her?"
"Yes, Taoist Priest Qingxuan has not shown up for several years. The last time I went to Baiyun Temple, even her two boys were missing." Director Guo leaned back in his chair and sighed, "It's difficult."
Zhu Xuefeng's side was fine. Information received from various sources confirmed that Lao Yang's situation was much better now, and Zhu Xuefeng felt at ease. Zhou Xiaoyu and Xie Minghui were transferred back to the city bureau and received the certificate as they wished, but their housing was temporarily solved. No, I will stay in the compound for the time being.
Several friends of Professor Lin were sent away one after another. Zhu Xuefeng now has a rare leisure time, controlling the progress of the autonomous region, and doing his own research when he has time. In addition to being seconded to test fly the YF-12 a few times, he helped to touch the The performance and parameters of this fighter jet, and the fact that he was caught several times by Lao Hao, and arrested several lurking spies, and spent the rest of the time hiding in the yard.
Every night, he would give guidance on a few people's cultivation, discuss future international financial investments with Xia Yuhong, and instill his own ideas. Regardless of the wind and waves outside, Zhu Xuefeng lived a comfortable life.
Seeing that the Spring Festival was coming, Zhu Xuefeng, Xia Yuhong and Lao Xia had a detailed discussion, hoping that they would leave with Xia Yuhong. Only then did Lao Xia and his wife know that their son-in-law actually had property in Xiangjiang.
"Do we have overseas relations? Do we need to report it to the superior?" Lao Xia was a little uneasy and turned to ask Xia's mother. She was a disciplinary supervisor and should know this better.
"Dad, what are you talking about? Are you trying to trick Xiaofeng to death?" Xia Yuhong stopped him in a low voice.
Xia's mother was obviously in a difficult situation, "Normally, since the children are in China, it shouldn't be considered an overseas relationship. But in this case, I can't say for sure. Logically speaking, it should be reported."
The room fell into a deathlike silence. Zhu Xuefeng did not expect that Lao Xia and his wife would treat this matter like this. He was a little confused for a moment. He had known better and would not have said anything. Fortunately, he did not mention the scale of the industry, so he mentioned a small clothing store. shop.
"Mom, I'm going to Xiangjiang during the Chinese New Year. Xiaofeng said that I'll stay there after the Spring Festival. You two can tell me whether you want to come with me or not."
Xia Yuhong wanted her parents to follow Lin Na's parents, but her father seemed reluctant. When he was anxious, he almost used Lin Na as an example, but luckily he controlled his mouth in time.
Xia's mother looked at her daughter, then at her son-in-law, and her heart was confused. Then she looked at the frowning old Xia and sighed.
"You guys are very capable. Such a big thing has been kept hidden from us. You suddenly brought it up, and no one else has the right to do it. Xiaofeng, don't be anxious. Xiaohong and I will prepare the meal. You and the old man will talk about it again." Calculate it carefully, this is a big deal and cannot be done carelessly.”
Xia's mother winked at her son-in-law and pulled Xia Yuhong into the kitchen.
"Mom, what do you think? Dad will listen to you. If you tell him to leave, he will definitely follow you even if he is not happy."
Xia Yuhong was a little anxious and asked in a low voice when she entered the kitchen.
"Girl, it's easy for you to say that. I really think your dad has no idea. He doesn't want to worry about small things. When it comes to big things, your mother and I have to listen to him. Big gentlemen, big gentlemen. You think it's in vain. Yes, let’s just talk about you two. Who makes the final decision in the family affairs? ”
"Of course it's Xiaofeng. He's well-informed and I can't compare to him."
Mother Xia sighed, "You know, you can make the decision only if this man lets you make the decision. Tell mom, how did Xiaofeng get a front in Xiangjiang? Who will do the work for him? If we go there, we can all do it. What, the whole family is going there, can you recruit me?”
Xia Yuhong chuckled and said, "Small face, Mom, don't worry about it. Your son-in-law is very capable. Anyway, in the past, if you wanted to do something, there were plenty of things for you to do. If you want to support yourself in old age, you won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life." My mother was stunned, thinking that it would not be impossible for the family to work together again in the past. Unexpectedly, it seemed not to be the case, and they would not have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.
"What can I do if I go?"
"Aren't you in the chemical industry? Can the Evolution Factory take care of people? Dad can't bear to leave the vehicle factory. Let him go back and continue to manage the vehicle factory. That's fine."
Xia's mother was stunned again. Two completely unrelated industries, where are jobs so easy to find? He and Lao Xia are both old, how can they still manage people? It is definitely because the daughter wants to calm her mind. In fact, it doesn’t matter what she did in the past. She and her wife have suffered through hardships. No matter how hard it is, it will not be as hard as before liberation. Besides, it still has a reputation. As the saying goes, a shop can support three generations. If you can't find any work, you can help yourself to look after the shop.
After Xia Yuhong finished speaking, she realized that she might have let something slip, and quickly added, "Actually, I just said that the front of the house is in a very good location. It's better for you to help look at the front of the house than to hire someone else. Mom, are you right? .”
Xia's mother was still confused, but nodded subconsciously, and it took a while before she spoke with confusion.
"Let's see what the two masters come up with first. Xiaohong, you pick the beans, peel a potato, and let mom sit down for a while. Mom is very confused right now."
Not to mention the whispers between the mother and daughter in the kitchen, the situation between the father-in-law and son-in-law in the study was similar. Lao Xia was really in a mess.
"My own motorcycle factory? Heavy motorcycles?"
"Well, the motorboat and cruise ship projects will be launched soon, and there will be some vehicle projects later. These can only be controlled by our own people. Dad, please help me."
Lao Xia still shook his head, "The organization has trained me all my life. I must be worthy of the organization. I will be a member of the organization in this life. You don't need to persuade me."
I really didn't expect Lao Xia to be so stubborn in his bones. Even after talking about this, he still disagreed.
"Dad, you are just like Lao Yang, waiting for the day of victory, waiting for the steel rolling mill to be the same as before, before you are willing to waste time in the workshop."
Lao Xia nodded, "Well, it must be the same as last time. It will be finished in a few months. The vehicle factory is very important. It earns more than 10 million in foreign exchange a year. There can't be any mistakes in this. Otherwise, I'm sorry. Country.”
"Dad, your thinking is too simple. Let me tell you this. Don't even think about it. Are you really willing to waste ten years here? If you have this time, why don't you give it to the country outside? Make a contribution, and the contribution will be greater.”
Lao Xia glared at his son-in-law with dissatisfaction, "Don't scare me with big words. Ten years is enough, half a year is enough. Besides, if you go to your motorcycle factory, you are not just doing it for yourself, how can you contribute to the country."< br>
Zhu Xuefeng was speechless. Lao Xia's persistence seemed absurd in the eyes of later generations, but among people of this period, it was commonplace. Director Shao was one, and Lao Xia was another.
"Dad, do you still remember the floods a few years ago?"
"Of course I remember."
"Dad, if I told you that I donated all the lifeboats in the steel rolling mill, would you believe it?"
Lao Xia was stunned. Of course he knew about the four thousand lifeboats in the steel rolling mill. The cost of ordering was US$70 a boat, and four thousand sets was US$280,000.
"Did you donate it? What is your relationship with Dongsheng Company?"
Lao Xia's eyes were straightened. This batch of goods belonged to Dongsheng Company. The large and small scooters, trucks, tractors, three-wheelers, and cars they produced were all sold by Dongsheng Company.
"Dongsheng Company belongs to me, otherwise, no one would take the initiative to help sell these things in China."
Lao Xia was shocked. "You donated 5,000 tons of food, 5 million U.S. dollars, and countless tents, medicines, and clothes for the flood. Are you responsible for all these things?"
Zhu Xuefeng nodded again, "The country does not accept more, so it can only donate these. Our workers also donated a lot."
Lao Xia murmured to himself, "I know, I know, that's it, you have done such a big thing."
Zhu Xuefeng felt reassured when he saw Lao Xia's expression after hearing the news. Although he revealed the big secret, his father-in-law seemed to be moved.
"Dad, if you had come over, we would have made great achievements. These are just part of it. We are also driving domestic development in other areas. If you had come over, you would have definitely played a greater role than at the vehicle factory."
Lao Xia's heart was already churning. He couldn't digest the news for a while. Now it seemed that the steel rolling mill's ability to earn foreign exchange was nothing compared to his son-in-law's property. His one-time donation was enough to buy the steel rolling mill. More than enough.
Seeing that his father-in-law's body was no longer straight, his persistence and pride must have been defeated, Zhu Xuefeng said with a smile.
"Dad, you can also continue to strengthen domestic cooperation with these things you are in charge of. Xiangjiang's external environment is much better and it is easier to achieve results. This will not only promote domestic development, but we can also gain a foothold overseas. This is a win-win cooperation. , it will benefit both the country and yourself, so just follow Xiaohong.”
After relaxing, Zhu Xuefeng took out a cigarette and lit it for his father-in-law. Lao Xia unconsciously took it and took a puff.
"Xiao Feng, you young people are courageous and knowledgeable, and you are doing good things that benefit the country and the people. I am very pleased."
Zhu Xuefeng was a little stunned. Lao Xia's beginning was wrong. It seemed to be different from what he thought. As expected, his father-in-law continued to speak.
"What you are doing is a big thing. I guess I can't get involved. I'd better do my own thing down-to-earth. Xiaofeng, don't try to persuade me. With my little ability, I can use it in the vehicle factory. What are you doing?" I know nothing about heavy motorcycle factories, motorboats, or cruise ships, so I’m not afraid of your jokes. I don’t think I’m capable of stirring up such a mess.”
Zhu Xuefeng was stunned for a moment, "Dad, you still have hope for the steel rolling mill."
Lao Xia did not deny it, "The state has invested so much and even built such a large-scale family area. It will not let it continue to be chaotic. I firmly believe that the steel rolling mill will get back on track again. With the help of your Dongsheng Company I just want to do my part here to achieve greater results.”
Zhu Xuefeng could only express his admiration for Lao Xia's persistence, but he still refused to give up.
"Dad, let's do this. Didn't you say a few months? I'll give you a year. If one year passes and the steel rolling mill not only doesn't get better, but becomes even more chaotic, you can come with us and let's do it this way. "(End of Chapter)
