Men and women eating in the courtyard

"eat!"

Li Shu nibbled on the small piece of pear in her hand and generously gave it to Ba Ba.

Li Xuewu curled his lips in disgust and said, "I won't eat, I'm angry."

"What happened?"

Li Shu still didn't understand why Baba was angry, her little mouth was still chewing, and her eyes were full of curiosity.

Li Xuewu couldn't bear the taste of dirt in his daughter's mouth anymore and pinched her face with a smile. Li Shu was so frightened that she quickly hid behind her mother.

Li Shu's actions frightened Li Xuewu. He was really afraid that she would accidentally hit Gu Ning.

Gu Ning gave Li Xuewu a calm look, signaling him not to be nervous and scare Li Shu again.

He turned around and took Li Shu's little hand, wiped the pear juice from her mouth and hands with a towel, and taught her to practice hygiene.

The old lady walked out of the back room, saw her grandson coming back, and said with a smile: "It's such a short day, it only lasts so long."

As he spoke, he looked at the clock on the wall, and then asked Han Jiankun to sit on the sofa.

Han Jiankun was polite and dealt with the old lady's gossip.

The main thing was to ask about his family affairs. On the first day of work after the wedding, Qin Jingru said that the old lady was actually close to him.

Li Shu saw his wife coming out and was about to climb down from the sofa. Li Xuewu saw this and helped her.

Li Shu didn't know how many falls she suffered from this back roll, but she cried twice at most and would do it again next time.

He has small arms and legs, but he is quite courageous.

As Ba Ba put on her little flowered cloth shoes, Li Shu kicked her legs off the ground, swayingly grabbed the pear cubes on the plate, and handed one to his wife.

The old lady accepted it with a smile and asked Li Shu if she had given it to Uncle Han.

Li Shu looked at Han Jiankun with big eyes, grabbed a piece again, and handed it to Han Jiankun happily.

Han Jiankun answered it with a smile and thanked her, causing Li Shu to run back to the old lady with a smile.

The old lady also smiled and held Li Shu in her arms. Watching her look at Han Jiankun, she introduced her to her as her aunt's lover.

How can Li Shu understand what a lover is? She is just familiar with Han Jiankun. At this moment, the wife said that she has lost interest and is going to the fish tank to figure out how to harm those goldfish.

"I took a short nap in the afternoon, but I'm still sleepy now."

The old lady looked like she had just woken up when she came out of the house, and now she yawned again.

Li Xuewu asked with concern: "Are you feeling unwell?"

"There is no discomfort, just stay here"

The old lady knew that her grandson was concerned about her health, so she waved her hand and explained: "It's cold and I don't like to go out anymore, so I keep him indoors."

“Still more walking”

Li Xuewu knew that the old lady was tired. Qin Jingru was not at home these days, and the old lady had to make all the food.

Although he got up in the morning to help, he could only be a helper. The old lady thought he was stupid.

After Gu Ning got pregnant, the old lady wouldn't let her touch the work at home. Regardless of whether she was overly preoccupied or distressed, she would suffer a lot.

Li Xuewu asked her to go out more often, but his eyes met with Gu Ning's.

Gu Ning understood what Li Xuewu meant and the meaning of the old lady's words, and remained silent.

A few people chatted a few more words, teasing Li Shu who was running back and forth, and Qin Jingru asked everyone to eat.

Dinner was just as Qin Jingru said, the eggplant that the old lady wanted to eat was prepared, and Gu Ning's egg soup was also prepared.

Six people, four dishes, chatting while eating, which is quite cozy.

Li Xuewu was eating quickly, so he put down his chopsticks first and took the initiative to talk about going on a business trip to Yangcheng on Saturday.

The old lady frowned and complained about why he had so many field tasks this year.

Li Xuewu also explained with helplessness that the factory has heavy production tasks this year, and so does his responsibility.

Without saying anything else, I just gave a rough outline of the time to go to Yangcheng.

The old lady was thinking about things in Yangcheng and said something convenient about going to see Gu Ning's parents.

Li Xuewu glanced at Gu Ning and explained the distance from Yangcheng to Jinling with a wry smile.

Gu Ning also spoke about her parents' situation in Jinling, which reassured the old lady.

I won't be able to see my father-in-law and mother-in-law when I go to Yangcheng, but I can visit my third uncle's family. If I have time, I might even be able to go back to my old army.

Of course, he knew very well that when he returned to his old army, his commander would still see the soldiers who had an iron-clad camp, and most of the brothers under his command were no longer there.

When he mentioned the business trip to Yangcheng, he mainly wanted to persuade the old lady to take Li Shu back to the courtyard for a few days, and then pick the old lady back when he set off.

I heard it from the old lady's words just now. She might be homesick and angry.

It's been a while since I returned to the courtyard house. No matter how good the living conditions here are, the old lady still misses her family.

Even though I know everything is fine at home, I still can't help but miss her.

This time I went to Yangcheng, and it was said that I would not be able to return until the end of the month. It was not easy for the old lady to go home.

When he and Gu Ning looked at each other just now, Li Xuewu was also communicating with her. It was better to let the old lady go home now and stay there for fear of holding back his anger again.

But it's not easy to ask the old lady to take care of her, and it's not easy to send her back with nice words and good looks.

Hearing that her grandson was going on a business trip again, the old lady had no nerve to say that she would leave her second granddaughter-in-law alone and take her child home.

If she didn't take the initiative, how could Li Xuewu and Gu Ning, who were their grandchildren's wives, take the initiative to send her back? This would hurt the old lady's heart.

Both sides are concerned, both sides have concerns, and it is really difficult to say this because of the stumbling blocks.

Gu Ning's silence just now also meant this. She was not good at dealing with such complicated family relationships, especially after having been with the old lady for a long time, and she was even more reluctant to let go.

Li Xuewu hadn't even mentioned sending her back to the courtyard with the child, but the old lady had already made arrangements while feeding Li Shu.

"It's your time to be busy. Jingru is at home. Our mothers don't need you to worry."

As the old lady spoke, she glanced at Qin Jingru and said, "I've told Jingru about the daily food. You can buy whatever you need to buy."

"It won't happen~"

Li Xuewu smiled and said: "If you need anything at home, just call Guodong. It's convenient for him to deliver it. Jingru can call, right?"

"Yes, I know"

Qin Jingru nodded in response: "The old lady is worried about you~"

As she spoke, she responded to the old lady: "We don't lack anything at home. Brother Guodong said he would give us cabbage, radishes and so on. We don't need to provide briquettes or anything like that. Don't worry."

"Okay, don't worry"

The old lady fed Li Shu another mouthful of rice, and then said: "It's cold, and I don't know what the weather will be like in Yangcheng. Just prepare the clothes you need to prepare. It will be cold when he comes back."

This is true. By the time Li Xuewu returns to Beijing, it will be November anyway.

It’s already so cold in the capital in October. If it comes to November, it will be extremely cold even if it doesn’t snow.

Last year, Li Xuewu came back from changing his job. Fortunately, he had a full set of winter clothes in his bag, otherwise he would have been freezing when he left the train station.

Don't compare the temperature in later generations with the current temperature. During those days in Jicheng, Li Xuewu heard from Da Qiangzi that it could be as cold as minus 35 to 40 degrees.

There will be no such cold weather in future generations. At most, we spent twenty-five or sixty-six years in the winter.

The same is true here in Forty-Nine City. Last winter, Li Xuewu just used Forty-Nine City as the winter in Northeast China.

You see, who in the future still wears a hand mask on the street, but now if you go to the street and look, the person who does not wear a hand mask is definitely a fool, and even if you are not a fool, you will freeze into a fool.

"When do you leave on Saturday?"

Qin Jingru looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "I'll help you pack your luggage later."

"Saturday night, I'll go there tomorrow after cleaning up."

Li Xuewu looked at the old lady and asked, "Why don't you go back to the courtyard and stay for two days?"

"I won't go back. I'm too busy."

The old lady said nonchalantly: "I don't know when your dad will come back. Let's wait until the end of the year."

"How long will it take?"

Li Xuewu counted the time and explained: "He and Lao San are working on Chinese herbal medicine cultivation technology. It will be good to go home in the past few days. Don't wait for them."

"When I come back from this trip, I will take you home to rest for a while."

After coaxing the old lady like this, Li Xuewu glanced at Gu Ning and said, "Sister-in-law, life is coming soon. I won't delay your return home to take care of your grandson."

"Hi~ I'm dear to everyone"

The old lady muttered: "I just hope that you are all well. The eldest son is about to give birth, and Xiao Ning's life is in front of her, and she is too busy."

"That's not what it is~"

Li Xuewu complimented: "With you here, I can feel relieved when I go out. We are young, we don't understand anything, and our claws are numb when something happens."

The old lady was coaxed by her grandson, and she had a smile on her face. Everyone liked the feeling of being taken seriously.

Following the grandson's words, he talked about some parenting methods and the important relationship between pregnant women and childbirth.

Fortunately, it's close to the hospital. Gu Ning's own unit has convenient arrangements for the obstetrics department.

Li Xuewu sat at the dining table, listening to the old lady talking, and also asked Qin Jingru to learn it, so that they could use it in the future.

Qin Jingru had just gotten married, but she had never seen a girl from the countryside. When people gave birth to children, she had always gone to watch them.

The old lady was talking about the production arrangements in the city, and she added the technology of rural production, which made Li Xuewu's mouth twitch.

What kind of household scissors can be used by burning them, what kind of pregnancy pills can be used, what kind of maternity bed can be used as a delivery room...

It's also because he is so rare and strange. Men themselves don't care about this. In these days, except for the obstetrics facilities in the city, the rural areas just rely on midwives to handle these things.

If you really send a pregnant woman to the city to give birth, she will be dead halfway through.

No matter how fast an ox-cart is, it can't compare to a car. How can a woman give birth?

Therefore, it is not uncommon for one person to die and two people to die in rural areas.

Qin Jingru nonchalantly talked about several special cases of rural production. After listening to this, Li Xuewu felt that life was very difficult.

Rural people face hardships from the moment they are born, and their entire lives are full of hardships.

But city people can't afford it, and it's much easier than rural people.

Qin Jingru said it was normal now. If she had not come to the city, gone to the courtyard, met these people and things, and had not insisted on going to the city, she would have encountered this kind of disaster.

After the meal, Qin Jingru cleaned up the kitchen and went home with Han Jiankun.

The old lady coaxed Li Shu to go to bed, but the little devil's battery was not exhausted yet, so she nudged Li Xuewu to continue playing.

After dinner, Gu Ning wandered around the living room and then went upstairs to read. Her life was monotonous and peaceful.

Li Xuewu coaxed his daughter to scatter the toy boxes on the floor, and then packed them up one by one, finally making Li Shu sleepy.

When he went upstairs again, Gu Ning also yawned in the study.

"Don't read at night, it will hurt your eyes."

Li Xuewu persuaded him and went to the cloakroom to find some clothes. When he came out, Gu Ning also turned off the lights in the study and went to the bedroom to lie down.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Gu Ning was low on energy, Li Xuewu walked around the bed and looked at her, and reached out to touch her forehead.

Gu Ning shook his head and said, "I'm fine."

"The weather has changed seriously recently, so be careful not to get cold."

Li Xuewu covered her with a quilt and then went to the bathroom to take a shower.

When he came out again, he poured a cup of warm water and placed it on Gu Ning's bedside. He said comfortingly: "Pay more attention to your body, and be careful to arm yourself mentally!"

Gu Ning glanced at him funny and said angrily: "You want to hold a meeting for me?"

"Hey! Comrade, your attitude is unacceptable!"

Li Xuewu deliberately teased her, got on the bed and lay next to her, but said: "Quotations teach us that young people should have a little spirit."

Gu Ning closed her eyes slightly, turned around helplessly, and listened to Li Xuewu nagging behind her: "Young people should clarify their learning pursuits, broaden their learning horizons, and correct their learning attitude..."

"Teacher Li, there's no need to go to class when you're in bed~"

Gu Ning said dissatisfiedly: "There is nothing wrong with my ideological consciousness."

"Then it can't be something wrong with Autumn!"

Li Xuewu propped himself up, looked at Gu Ning, who had his back turned to him, and said, "Autumn has been a sad and lonely time since ancient times! Even sad autumn will make you sick!"

"What disease?"

Gu Ning turned around, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Have you forgotten my profession?"

"You forgot my major!"

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "You can cure the physical illness, but I can't cure the mental illness. You can see it~"

"You said I'm mentally ill?"

Gu Ning's eyes narrowed with murderous intent, and he had already put his hand into Li Xuewu's bed, looking like he was ready to be tortured.

"Don't hide your illness and avoid medical treatment~"

Li Xuewu grabbed Gu Ning's hand and said comfortingly: "Autumn is lonely and everything is withered. When you look at the withered leaves and the sunset, you will inevitably feel an inexplicable feeling of depression and low mood."

"Is this also a disease?"

Gu Ning shook off Li Xuewu's hand and said impatiently: "According to you, Du Fu, who writes about Wan Li's sad autumn and is often a guest, and who has been sick for hundreds of years and appears alone on stage, is also sick?"

"Hey! What you said is on point!"

Li Xuewu let go of Gu Ning's hand, but he hugged her body and said: "Du Fu has never had a smooth life, so the autumn he saw was sad. Otherwise, why would he throw himself into the water in sadness and loneliness? !”

"In psychological terms, this is called depression!"

"What disease? Yuyu disease?!"

Others don't know how much Li Xuewu weighs, and she still doesn't know how Li Xuewu wrote his book on criminal psychology.

When she saw Li Xuewu talking about psychology to her, she thought he was just trying to trick her.

It can be seen that Li Xuewu really made up a symptom for her, and she found it funny and surprised.

"It's depression, the kind of depression where people are depressed and unable to achieve their goals."

Li Xuewu corrected: "It cannot be regarded as a mental illness, but it is also an emotional illness within the psychological and spiritual scope, and it has something to do with the environment."

"Then what?"

Gu Ning lay in Li Xuewu's arms, looked into his eyes and asked: "You wouldn't deliberately make up such a trick to trick me, would you?!"

"Is this the image I have in your eyes?"

Li Xuewu pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "At any rate, I got into that book and studied it carefully. Think carefully about whether what I said is right!"

"What was the situation like when Lao Du wrote "Ascending"?"

"The Anshi Rebellion has just ended, and various parties are fighting for territory. The proprietor Yan Wu died of illness, was displaced, and was plagued by illness. How do you think he felt?"

"But look at Liu Yuxi's "Autumn Poems": Since ancient times, autumn has been sad and lonely, but I say that autumn is better than spring."

"Lao Liu has more fighting spirit than Lao Du. Although Wang Shuwen's reform movement was strongly opposed by the eunuchs, feudal lords, and government officials and ended in failure, Lao Liu still has fighting spirit!"

"So a person's mental fighting spirit can affect personal emotional changes, which in turn affects your attitude towards life."

"I have a good attitude and I'm not sick."

Gu Ning was speechless when Li Xuewu said "Lao Du" to the left and "Lao Liu" to the right, as if these two people were neighbors of Li Xuewu's family.

She took the initiative to hug Li Xuewu, but forcefully said that she was fine.

Of course, Li Xuewu didn't want his wife to have any problems. He patted her on the shoulder and comforted her: "When the weather is good, go out for a walk more often and talk to the old lady. Don't dwell in a book alone. It's too lonely."

"Um"

Gu Ning put her arms around Li Xuewu's waist, leaned into his arms and agreed softly.

"You...you also come back early."

This seemed to be the first time Gu Ning had acted coquettishly with him, or made a request.

Li Xuewu looked down at her and asked with a smile: "Are you scared by what Qin Jingru said?"

Gu Ning didn't say anything, she just crawled into his arms again.

A pregnant woman is inherently sentimental, and she is also a delicate-minded person.

In addition, parents and relatives are not around, so it is inevitable that there will be some mood swings.

Li Xuewu understands her thoughts, so he goes home whenever he gets off work during this period. On Sundays, he goes to parties during the day and eats dinner at home.

The autumn night is no longer the noisy and eager summer, but has become a howling cold wind, solemn and solemn.

Just like the capital city now, the streets and alleys are filled with this chilling atmosphere from top to bottom, making Li Xuewu feel more and more unfamiliar with this city in this autumn.

On October 10, when Li Xuewu got up in the morning, Qin Jingru and Han Jiankun had already arrived.

The two even brought back Li Shu's milk along the way.

Qin Jingru went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast, and Han Jiankun was not idle. Under Qin Jingru's instruction, he collected the "leftover branches and fallen leaves" in the yard.

Li Xuewu didn't think about what kind of work he was doing at home and told him not to do it, but Qin Jingru was rude and said it would be more troublesome to find someone to take care of it.

There are several trees in the courtyard of Haiyuncang No. 1. There are shade trees in the east and fruit trees in the west. Han Jiankun used a hand saw to cut off all the branches with branches.

It was just breakfast time, and the house was like a dining hall, very lively.

Li Shu also liked this kind of excitement. She put on a cotton-padded jacket early and lay on the window sill watching Uncle Han "fly over the roof and walk over the wall".

Gu Ning is more adaptable to this kind of life with a large family than Li Xuewu. She was like this when she was a child.

After a busy morning, everyone was busy with their own things, and it was not until they sat down at the dinner table that they finally stopped.

In fact, it didn't count. In the eyes of Gu Ning and others, Li Xuewu carried the bag and got into the jeep.

Li Xuewu sat in the car, picked up his secretary Shaqizhi, and headed all the way to the steel rolling mill to start a day of work and life.

In the morning, Li Xuewu presided over the first office meeting of the security team, which mainly focused on the work discussed with Li Huaide yesterday.

This includes support for cadre training courses, security and protection of existing projects, restoration of order in the factory, and rotation training of cadres within the security team.

There are also tasks that have been left behind in the early stage, including the tracking and follow-up of Zhang Guoqi's case, the structural changes of the security team during the major organizational restructuring work, etc.

As it was approaching the time to go to Yangcheng, Li Huaide was working hard, and Li Xuewu was also very busy with work.

After the meeting, several responsible persons were called to have a small meeting alone. Xiao Zihong and Chu Yougong also attended the meeting.

Li Xuewu was not in a hurry to show off to the two of them. Everything was normal, as if he had discovered nothing.

His reaction put pressure on Chu Yougong, and he looked at Li Xuewu with an inquiring look.

Chu Yougong did not have the confidence or courage to challenge Li Xuewu's authority in the security team.

After all, the leader in charge is Dong Wenxue, and the first deputy team leader is Li Xuewu, and both of them have a close relationship with Li Huaide.

However, he was younger than Xiao Zihong, and he was at the age where he could make achievements and take on responsibilities. How could he be willing to succumb to Li Xuewu's name?

Even if he couldn't object to Li Xuewu, he still wanted to make some achievements of his own.

In terms of division of labor, Chu Yougong is responsible for supervision and confidentiality.

Confidentiality work is passive, and it is also a relatively unpopular work in the steel rolling mill, or it is a secretive work attribute and is not easy to achieve results.

The supervision work he was originally responsible for was in his old job, and the tracking work of Zhang Guoqi's case and the cases of those persons investigated in the early stage were still in his hands.

After joining the security team, his energy was mainly focused on these cases.

Although there was no Commission for Discipline Inspection, the cases that needed to be handled still had to be handled. After arresting a few, he also wanted to experience the majesty and pride of getting rid of the deputy director.

Coming out of the conference room, Li Xuewu met Wang Yajuan coming up with documents.

Knowing that they were looking for him, he waved and pointed in the direction of his office.

Wang Yajuan walked a few steps, met Sha Qizhi who was waiting for her, and explained her purpose.

There was no one in Li Xuewu's office at the moment. Sha Qizhi saw the leader waving just now, so he arranged for Wang Yajuan to go in first to report on the work.

Wang Yajuan also felt the difference after the organizational structure change of the steel rolling mill, and she also had some strange feelings about the arrangement of sand machines.

There are too many procedures, and if someone blocks Li Xuewu's door, it means that she is far away from Li Xuewu.

Fortunately, after entering the door, I found that Li Xuewu's attitude had not changed, but his brows were a little tired.

"Are you tired lately?"

"What do you think?"

Li Xuewu was not reserved when getting along with her, nor did he pretend not to know her. He faced the past situation calmly.

The two met when they were young, fell in love for the first time, and were childhood sweethearts. How could they not know each other?

If Wang Yajuan was not there, where would the art troupe come from? Li Xuewu did not lack such resources.

Wang Yajuan looked at Li Xuewu's invitation and sat on the chair opposite the desk.

He declined Sha Qi's offer to make tea, took the initiative to hand the document to Li Xuewu, and introduced: "You can take a look at the expansion plan that the group leader, I, and instructor Zhang have studied."

"Um"

Li Xuewu didn't care about the honorific in her words, took the document and started reading it.

Wang Yajuan looked at Li Xuewu reading carefully, her eyes moved slightly, and she introduced the contents of the plan.

In accordance with Li Xuewu's guidance, combined with the current development of the cultural propaganda team and the superiors' needs for the construction of the cultural propaganda team, this expansion plan was formulated.

“We have inspected the situation of cultural troupes and professional art performance teams.”

Wang Yajuan said: "Considering the situation of the steel rolling mill, we did not choose a larger group. Instead, based on publicity needs, we focused on several distinctive literary and artistic groups, including the song and dance troupe of the School of Art."

Li Xuewu nodded, not in a hurry to express his opinion, and continued to look at the plan in his hand.

Wang Yajuan also roughly explained the reasons why the propaganda team considered this, and then said nothing more.

It is said that men who work hard are the most attractive, but Li Xuewu's current appearance is a kind of torture for Wang Yajuan.

She felt a little bitter in her heart and couldn't express it. Impulsiveness and past friendship were mixed with Li Xuewu's increasingly majestic side, which made her feel even more mixed when facing Li Xuewu.

What is it like working with your ex-boyfriend?

Wang Yajuan had never thought about it before. Even if she thought about it all her brains, she could not think of the circumstances under which she would meet Li Xuewu in the future.

The sweetness and quarrels in the past have now become what Li Xuewu expected, even beyond her imagination, and she doesn't know what kind of mood she should be in.

There have been rumors in the propaganda team about her "inappropriate" relationship with Li Xuewu. There are more than a dozen vivid versions, but none of them is true.

The truth is that childhood sweethearts were born at the wrong time and made the wrong choice at the wrong time.

They were all at an age when they were young and energetic and didn't know how to cherish it. Rather than saying that she missed Li Xuewu, it was better to say that Li Xuewu missed her.

Without the breakup of the two, Li Xuewu would not have been able to go to the south, let alone undergo such a transformation.

Everything in this world, every peck and every drink, has its destiny.

If it's hers, it will be hers. If it's not hers, it will fly away in your hands.

"OK"

Li Xuewu read the document, put it down gently, took the pen on the table and commented on the document, and said: "Don't stick to the 100 people I told you, be more flexible."

"Uh...how can you be flexible?"

Wang Yajuan didn't understand the meaning of Li Xuewu's words and looked at him hesitantly.

Li Xuewu said without raising his head: "The propaganda team will have a lot of publicity work in the future, and they must be ready to complete the publicity tasks of several venues at the same time."

"Are you going to form a small team?"

Wang Yajuan raised her eyebrows and said, "Do you want to form a fixed weave?"

"Knitting is dead, people are alive"

Li Xuewu raised his head and looked at Wang Yajuan and said: "You are in control of the cultural propaganda team. If you say there is a small team, then it is necessary to expand the number of personnel. Do you understand?"

"This... you mean..."

Wang Yajuan blinked and asked tentatively: "You want me to fool the leader?"

"Hey! ~Hehehe~"

Li Xuewu couldn't help but chuckle when he heard her words. Seeing that she was a little embarrassed, he explained: "In business, you have to have confidence in yourself and don't just follow what the boss says."

"In terms of organizational management, you must absolutely obey the leadership. There is no contradiction between the two."

Li Xuewu tapped her with a pen and said: "The leader doesn't care how many people your team has. The leader only cares about whether your work is done properly."

"Can you still do this?"

Wang Yajuan obviously cannot accept Li Xuewu's working method of treating leaders as fools, but in her heart, she has great trust and admiration for Li Xuewu.

"Then... the personnel side... won't we get stuck?"

"If you are stuck, just say what the leader asks for."

Li Xuewu continued to write his opinions. Although he asked Wang Yajuan to act boldly, when he wrote, he asked to control personnel costs and strive for excellence.

"Leaders are there to take the blame and to make it easier for you to carry out your work. You should mention it when it's time to do so."

"Can I mention you?"

Wang Yajuan finally understood Li Xuewu's bad intentions, and she pursed her lips and asked deliberately.

Li Xuewu smiled nonchalantly and asked, "Don't you know that the security team's office regulations all have records and feedback receipts?"

"..."

Wang Yajuan looked at the row of file cabinets behind him speechlessly, and also remembered the office system of the security office that everyone in the factory was talking about.

Why didn't I realize that Li Xuewu was so serious before? He was really petty.

"Okay, let's take it to the human resources department for a look, and then go find Deputy Secretary Gu."

"Oh~ right!"

Li Xuewu thought of something, stopped Wang Yajuan who was about to get up and said, "How are you preparing for the propaganda team going to Yangcheng?"

"It's all according to your orders. Six people have been rehearsing the propaganda methods you mentioned."

Wang Yajuan shrugged her shoulders, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "I've never heard of anyone's products being advertised like this."

"You haven't heard much"

Li Xuewu retorted unceremoniously, but his tone was joking and not serious.

Wang Yajuan pouted, stood up and said, "Okay, I have long hair and short knowledge, so I won't be an eyesore to you here~"

He was complaining like this, but when he turned around, he couldn't help but tell him: "You should also pay attention to rest, your brows are wrinkled like an old man's".

Li Xuewu raised his head to talk to her, but found that the person had already walked to the door.

Regarding working with his ex-girlfriend, Li Xuewu had a very peaceful attitude. If he was really serious about this kind of thing, then he would not be alive.

There are so many ex-girlfriends of his in these 49 cities, that is to say, they now travel by car. If he really rides a bicycle or goes back to the courtyard often, there will be endless stories of chance encounters.

Regarding the product promotion plan of the publicity team, Li Xuewu asked Sha Qizhi to review several plans from the exhibition.

He took the lead in writing and planning these plans and led the exhibition team.

From the details of previous exhibition materials, including the construction of simple platforms, the layout of background boards, the printing of promotional materials, and the personalized exhibition of related products, etc.

In addition, it also includes exquisite brochures, commemorative badges with red elements, keychains, ashtrays, notebooks, etc.

The First Prison also provides chess, playing cards, palace lanterns, silk flowers and other artworks with the cultural characteristics of the capital.

When it comes to external exhibitions and sales, everyone’s products are similar. Even if the steel rolling mill’s products are outstanding, they still have to be set off by green leaves.

Li Xuewu didn't know if there was such a promotional model for small gifts in current trade fairs, but it would exist in later generations, which means that this method is very practical.

A lot of money has been spent, not much more than this.

Especially when it comes to hunting rabbits. If we could catch the strong wind of the steel rolling mill and push out these gadgets from the first prison, it would undoubtedly make the yellow-stemmed heifer fly into the sky.

Especially the portable small radio they are currently working on has opened up a market in the capital and is a very popular gadget.

The idea came from the small radio that Li Xuewen saved himself, which he played with while fishing during spring outings.

In the No. 1 Prison, Li Xuewen also built such a gadget to demonstrate to the students how small a radio could be.

When the guards discovered that the radio could be so exquisite, they all begged Li Xuewen to help save this little thing.

Huang Qian is so smart, he is a born businessman, and he directly turned this gadget into a best-selling product.

Now Shen Guodong is urging the First Prison to increase production, and everyone outside is looking for this little thing.

Limited by the power supply capacity of the battery, current portable radios still have many inconveniences.

However, no matter how inconvenient it is, it is still the kind of fashionable thing you can put in your pocket and listen to.

Just think of how popular the Walkman was back then. This gadget was a status symbol in the eyes of qualified owners in the Four-Nine Cities.

The key is that it's not expensive, it's very practical, and it's about one-third cheaper than a big radio.

Although it is battery powered, in the eyes of wealthy people, this is just a gadget.

Do you like snuff bottles? Do you like hand twisting? Do you like the little radio?

In fact, Huang Qian made such a big business, but he also got into trouble.

The electronic components of the radio in the No. 1 Prison were all purchased from the Jinmen Electronics Factory. We had already promised not to affect the products of the Jinmen Electronics Factory.

Li Xuewu didn't think that the first prisoner could do much and even affect the business of an electronics factory.

But who would have thought that Huang Qian was just a blind cat who met a dead rat, and he really made a hit.

Given the speed with which factories respond to products and markets in this era, just think, if it really becomes popular, it will take at least more than half a year.

In a planned economy, who would dare to produce without a plan?

They don't produce, but they don't want you to produce either.

This is just like those people in later generations who oppose young people's gambling industry. They don't want to roll, and they don't allow you to do it!

Zheng Xiaoyan from Jinmen Electronics Factory made a special call to Li Xuewu.

After all, Li Xuewu asked her to introduce the project of the First Prison to the Jinmen Electronics Factory. If something happened, they would naturally come to him.

When she first called, Zheng Xiaoyan's attitude was very tactful and she just said not to affect the sales of their factory's products.

Another one is that the Jinmen Electronics Factory wants to inspect the production situation of the No. 1 Prison.

Li Xuewu clearly conveyed these to Huang Qian, and Huang Qian also received the inspection of Jinmen Electronics Factory.

Li Xuewu felt that this matter was over. Huang Qian didn't like the attitude of Jinmen Electronics Factory, so he just didn't cooperate in depth.

But I didn't expect that there would be a follow-up to this matter. It might be that the products and sales of No. 1 Prison Station suddenly increased under the surveillance of Jinmen Electronics Factory, which aroused the other party's resentment.

Zheng Xiaoyan may have been pressured by their factory leaders, so her attitude when she called Li Xuewu was a little dissatisfied.

Although the words were still very tactful, Li Xuewu could still hear the questions and complaints in his tone.

He didn't get angry at that time. He only told Zheng Xiaoyan that this project had nothing to do with him and was just entrusted by a friend. He told her not to have any scruples. If Jinmen Electronics Factory is willing to cooperate, she can continue to wholesale original parts. If she is not willing, she can stop. It doesn't matter.

The conversation between the two ended on bad terms, and he didn't tell Huang Qianming about it.

When going to the No. 1 Prison to view the scene, Li Xuewu also reminded Huang Gan that the original parts could be purchased from the Beijing TV Factory, and there might be duplicates at the Jinmen Electronics Factory.

Huang Qian didn't pay attention. What he communicated to Li Xuewu was that Jinmen Electronics Factory had a bad temper and he wanted to mess with him.

Li Xuewu didn't even ask how it happened and how the subsequent procurement was carried out.

Afraid that the First Prison Office might not be able to handle it, he even contacted the Third Industry Department that he could cooperate with the First Prison Office for the radio project in auto parts.

Li Xuewu wasn't temperamental either. Zheng Xiaoyan treated him as a godson dependent on their family because of official business.

He hasn't been to his godmother's house recently, but Guodong did all the gifts and help he needed.

Anger is just anger, and it has nothing to do with his godmother and godfather. They are really nice to him, and they are sincere in getting along with him.

I don’t know if Huang Qian can’t compete with Jinmen Electronics Factory, or if this kid went off the rails and really caused trouble for the sales of Jinmen Electronics Factory.

At noon, Li Xuewu unexpectedly received a call from his godmother.

Wang Shuhua didn't say anything on the phone, she just said that he hadn't been home these days and missed him.

We made an appointment to have dinner at home tonight. Godfather Zheng Shusen called Zheng Xicai and Zheng Xiaoyan back so that they could all get together.

Li Xuewu didn't even pay attention to this matter. It may have happened because of the development now.

Hearing what his godmother meant, Zheng Xiaoyan must have explained everything clearly. As for what he said, he didn't know.

If his godmother hadn't told him, he would have just kept pretending to be confused, and at worst he would have stopped interacting with Zheng Xiaoyan.

But now his godmother made an appointment for dinner, and he had to keep the appointment no matter how busy he was.

It was agreed on the phone, Li Xuewu hung up the phone and called Huang Gan.

Unfortunately, this guy was out for a meeting, and no one in the office knew when he would be back.

He couldn't find out the exact information, and even if he called Shen Guodong, he wouldn't be able to find anyone, so he didn't bother to ask any more.

After lunch, as soon as I came out of the canteen, I saw Zhang Songying coming around from the alley.

"What a coincidence?"

"What a coincidence, I was waiting for you"

Zhang Songying glanced at no one around, pouted slightly and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to take me to Yangcheng? Do you still have Xin'er?"

Li Xuewu asked in surprise: "Yangcheng? What Yangcheng?"

"You!..." (End of Chapter)
