Siheyuan diet for men and women

Chapter 1575 A Butt Isn't Necessarily dirtier than a Face

"You've been drinking?" Yu Li looked at him in surprise and asked, "Aren't you cold?"

"What season is it? Why are you still freezing?"

Li Xuewu smiled, turned around without paying attention, and let her help him take off his coat.

"Wang Yamei is here to pick up her sister."

Without trying to hide it from Li, he frankly explained, "Wang Yajuan has been transferred back to Beijing."

"Ya Mei is here?" Yu Li was stunned by the series of messages he sent.

"Wang Yajuan has only been in Gangcheng for a year, how come she was transferred back so soon?"

She hung up her coat and, seeing Li Xuewu go to the living room, followed him to the tea cabinet to make him a strong cup of tea to help him sober up.

"When are they leaving? If there's still time, I'd like to invite them too."

Yu Li worked at the recycling station's sales office for over a year and was familiar with Wang Yamei. She was also no stranger to Wang Yajuan, who often came to pick up her sister from get off work.

“I knew Wang Yajuan worked in Gangcheng, and I was thinking of meeting her when I came here.”

He placed the brewed tea on the coffee table in front of Li Xuewu, saying, "I've been so busy that I haven't had time. If I had known she was going back, I would have contacted her sooner."

"The two sisters had a falling out."

Li Xuewu sat down on the sofa, and feeling hot in the room, he loosened his belt and was about to take off his pants.

Seeing this, Yu Li stood up again to help, stretching out her trouser leg and asking, "What's going on?"

"It's not Wang Yajuan, it's Wang Yamei."

Li Xuewu glanced in the direction of the kitchen and asked, "Are you still burning so much fuel in the stove?"

"I wasn't paying attention and added too much of the 'sticky rice' (a type of rice cake)."

Yu Li glanced at the direction of the study with amusement and said, "I was just washing my hands when he refilled the stove, and the temperature went up."

"Sure, keep warm in spring and stay cool in autumn."

Li Xuewu casually took off his long trousers as well. Despite being a young man with strong physique, Yu Li felt a certain coldness in this house.

There was no other way. Yu Li said that the spring wind in Northeast China is biting cold, and if you're not careful, you'll suffer from joint pain when you get old.

Whether there was any basis or necessity, Li Xuewu didn't want to investigate or verify it. With someone taking care of his daily chores, what was there to complain about?

Wearing only a pair of long johns, he sat on the sofa, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and explained, "She said she had a falling out with Pazile and took the opportunity of coming to Gangcheng to pick up her sister to get away and clear her head."

"With Pazil?" Yu Li raised an eyebrow, took his clothes to the bathroom, and came back saying, "How could such an honest guy bully her? I never expected that."

“She’s the one who bullied her.” Li Xuewu curled his lip and said, “She mistook her tolerance for weakness. Otherwise, would her sister have gotten angry with her?”

“These two sisters—” Yu Li shook her head with amusement and asked, “Are you taking a bath?”

"No, I drank a little, it's easy to get tipsy." Li Xuewu waved his hand and said, "I'll just take a shower later, I smell a bit."

"Did you eat at a restaurant?" Yu Li came over and helped him take off his shirt, asking, "Where's Niu Xianglan?"

"Hmm, where else could we go?"

Li Xuewu said calmly, "After they've eaten and been comforted, I took the two sisters home."

"How many years younger is Yamei than her sister?"

Yu Li straightened his shirt collar and asked, "I remember she was quite a bit younger."

"Five years old, and twenty this year."

Li Xuewu found a newspaper under the coffee table and unfolded it to read. There was really nothing to do while drinking tea, so he could only read the newspaper.

"No wonder, Pazil is older than her."

Yu Li said with a smile, "Maybe it's just the young couple playing around. They'll be fine when they get back."

"Yes, her sister went back." Li Xuewu said, holding his teacup. "Someone needs to keep an eye on her."

"What's Wang Yajuan going back for?" Yu Li asked curiously. "Still at the radio station?"

"No, it's to the performing arts troupe."

Li Xuewu shook the newspaper and picked out the parts that interested him to read, as he didn't have much time to study during the day.

After Yu Li finished tidying up the clothes to be washed, she asked, "Did you go back to your original unit and become a regimental commander?"

"Hmm, she's at the right level." Li Xuewu nodded, saying casually, "Her training over the past few years has been sufficient. Perhaps the higher-ups have taken that into consideration."

"You didn't arrange this?" Yu Li said, somewhat surprised. "I thought it was you..."

"What about me?" Li Xuewu looked up at her, amused, and said, "Just because she was transferred doesn't mean I arranged it?"

Yu Li didn't answer him, but just smiled meaningfully.

"Hehe—" Li Xuewu chuckled lightly, continued reading his newspaper, and did not offer any further explanation, appearing quite composed.

He usually only reads newspapers such as the People's Daily, the Industrial Daily, and the United Industrial Daily.

In fact, with Li Xuewu's resources, it wouldn't have been a problem for him to apply for the "Internal Reference" publication, but he didn't go to the trouble of doing so.

The line that villains often say in later TV dramas actually makes sense:

Knowing too much won't do you any good.

Some people think that "internal reference materials" are particularly mysterious, and that the articles published in them can reach the ears of the highest authorities.

Yes, that's true, but the "internal reference" isn't a newspaper; it's divided into several layers.

Only those with the corresponding status could see the "internal references" at the corresponding level. In this era before the internet, its unique confidentiality was the source of the mystery and longing that ordinary people felt for the unknown.

Another characteristic of the "internal reference" is its sensitivity; a lot of content that cannot be reported or current events are published in it for managers to refer to and implement.

Li Xuewu's rank is high enough that he can see reference information at the bureau level, but what's the use?

It's not very useful. The information that needs to be known will be issued or forwarded from above through internal documents, and information that is not related to the group's business can be learned through the People's Daily and newspapers within the industrial system.

Sometimes he wouldn't even read the People's Daily, but would directly read the United Industrial News, a newspaper sponsored by Honggang Group, which was more functional, targeted, and professional.

When are you going back to Beijing next month?

Yu Li came out of the bathroom, glanced at him, and asked, "You should change your clothes for the season."

"It hasn't been arranged yet, let's talk about it later."

Li Xuewu was witnessing the successful trial production of the first 100-ton internal combustion hydraulic rail crane in China.

That's how you read a newspaper; you can't just stare at tiny, fly-sized words. You have to think outside the box.

He was immediately reminded of the logistics company that was established at the end of last year by the crane he saw.

Many companies have general managers, but few are appointed as deputy bureau chiefs when formally applying for official status.

This is especially true for newly established logistics companies that have not yet been fully developed and have generated a certain influence.

Cranes are essential for logistics because Honggang Group relies heavily on railways for most of its logistics.

Through in-depth cooperation with Beijing Railway, Honggang Group has established its own logistics network and cargo transportation channels throughout the country.

With the highway network not yet fully developed, railway transportation can be considered the most important means and channel of transportation in this era.

Especially for a comprehensive group enterprise like Honggang Group, transportation tasks would be impossible without the railway.

Honggang Group reached a cooperation agreement with Beijing Railway as early as 1966 or 1977. The first thing they operated was that refrigerated train, which opened the door for Hongxing Factory to become Honggang Group.

Just as the border region was hit by a severe snowstorm, refrigerated trains continuously transported meat products to the interior, creating further opportunities for cooperation between the two sides.

In the same year, Honggang Group invested in manufacturing a second refrigerated train, which, along with Honggang Group's own luxury passenger cars, was handed over to Beijing Railway Operation for management.

In the subsequent course of cooperation and development, the two parties jointly invested in the establishment of a joint goods transportation channel spanning the east, west, north, and south; built the first comprehensive large-scale freight station in Beijing; and built the first container manufacturing and repair plant in the steel city...

At the end of last year, the group officially issued a document approving the application from the Dispatch and Transportation Department to establish Hongxing United Logistics Development Corporation, which means that the group has integrated all transportation resources and is developing independently.

Hongxing United Logistics Development Corporation has three specialized logistics companies: Hongxing United Logistics Service Company, Hongxing Yingcheng Port Management Company, and Hongxing Yuezhou Port Management Company.

The latter two are port management companies, which are still in the process of being established due to the port's ongoing construction. Meanwhile, the joint logistics services company has already begun formal operations.

Hongxing United Logistics Service Company has subordinate railway transportation management offices, shipping transportation management offices, highway transportation management offices, and freight station management offices.

The Railway Transportation Management Office is responsible for all business operations via railway transportation, liaising with and coordinating with the relevant railway bureaus, and completing the transportation tasks assigned by the group.

Similar to highways, the shipping and transportation management office has set up offices in the ports under the group's jurisdiction, as well as an office in Tianjin Jingu Port.

The Highway Transport Management Office has not yet built a cross-regional or cross-city transport network. It is mainly responsible for connecting with freight stations and radiating to surrounding logistics distribution points. The main tools are trucks and cars.

It is worth mentioning that after the successful operation of tricycle transport teams organized by various streets and related units in Beijing, other cities have also seen the emergence of similar "disorganized" transport teams.

In every city where Honggang Group has established a freight station, there will definitely be a transportation team.

These transport teams have, to some extent, stimulated urban transportation development, accelerated cargo transshipment, and improved production and operational efficiency.

The strong sales of both light and heavy tricycles from the Steel City Automobile Factory demonstrate that there is still room for capital activity in this era, even if it is only a tentative endeavor.

Under the premise of liberating the labor force and developing the transportation industry, without violating basic policies, stimulating consumption while solving the problem of personnel resettlement, why not do it?

When Shen Guodong saw the project taking off, he wanted to expand transportation stations similar to recycling stations across the country, but Li Xuewu stopped him.

The reason is simple: the transportation industry has always been controlled by local cliques; otherwise, there would be no saying that "even innocent people like drivers, boatmen, shopkeepers, and peddlers should be killed."

Back then, SF Express encountered numerous difficulties when establishing stations across the country, let alone today, when the situation is even more complex.

With so many employees and a lack of cohesion in management, wouldn't it be suicidal to start something like this?

Honggang Group is thriving in the tricycle and motorcycle business, and they've already reaped the benefits. They don't even dare to think about the rest. Who does he think he is to even consider such things?

The transportation team shouldn't be established. At most, it's just something to do with the backing of Jiaodaokou Street to increase its influence and solve some people's employment problems. Thinking too much about it will only lead to mistakes.

Transportation teams cannot be established, and freight stations are even more unacceptable.

The freight station management office under the United Logistics Service Company has established freight stations in 18 major cities across the country, following the same model as the freight station in Beijing.

With a successful example like the Beijing Freight Station as a precedent, the subsequent ones have all gone relatively smoothly.

Of course, the other seventeen freight stations are all in cooperation with the local railways; otherwise, they could not have expanded so much in just a few years.

Honggang Group dispatched some of its employees and cadres to cooperate with and coordinate the local railway to complete operations.

Because of the decision to share the spoils, the construction of the freight station proceeded smoothly and encountered virtually no resistance.

The logic is simple: the land belongs to the railway, the management and staff are part of the railway, freight transportation stimulates local economic development and provides employment, so who would oppose the construction of freight stations?

Even if some forces want a share, it depends on whether the railway boss is willing.

The Honggang Group can't afford to mess with them, but the railway, with its independent judicial and police powers, won't tolerate them.

When a group of poor people save up money to buy tricycles and rely on the freight station for a living, the freight station's living conditions in the local area become better.

Li Xuewu had been looking at the newspaper in his hand for more than ten minutes without turning the page, and that was all he was thinking about.

As industrial technology development brings changes to life and production, he is also thinking about how to adjust the company's development direction and speed to adapt to the development needs of the new situation and the new era.

What do top executives at companies think about on a daily basis?
It's not just about what each workshop needs, nor is it simply about putting someone in a certain position; we also need to see into the future through the fog of history and the times.

If even the head of a factory has to formulate the development strategy and policy for his own factory, how much more so when he manages so many industrial enterprises? It's truly a case of one move affecting the whole situation.

Yu Li hung the washed clothes outside, then came back and rubbed her hands together, saying, "It's a bit cold."

"It won't get cold for more than a few days." Li Xuewu put down his newspaper, stood up, and said, "Did you bring all your clothes? Should I bring you some clothes when I go back?"

"No need, I already thought of that."

Yu Li went to the kitchen, turned on the hot water valve in the bathroom, and said, "I brought all my clothes for the year."

"How is your housing arranged?"

Li Xuewu suddenly remembered something and walked to the kitchen door to remind her, "If no one lives here for a long time, it will become useless."

“I told Grandpa, and he helped look after things. Li Xue said she’s going to live with us.”

Yu Li came out and smiled, saying, "I asked Grandpa to move in, but he couldn't bear to leave the back room."

"That's great, now we have more houses."

Li Xuewu took off his vest, went into the bathroom, and said, "We used to fight tooth and nail over houses."

"Isn't it the same now—"

Yu Li followed him in, reached out to test the water temperature of the brass showerhead, and then turned around and said, "Finding a job is just as difficult as finding a house."

“Work is due to policy reasons, but housing is not.” Li Xuewu took off his clothes and stood under the shower, saying while taking a shower, “Now the population in the city is smaller, so there are relatively more houses.”

“That’s not necessarily true,” Yu Li said, looking at him. “Why don’t you mention that there are also newlyweds?”

“There are countless people eyeing the properties in our compound. Even yours has been inquired about, with some wanting to report you so that it can be taken back and redistributed.”

"Hehe—" Li Xuewu chuckled and said, "They've really lost their minds."

The property of the building with the reverse side may be reclaimed, since it was originally allocated to him by the factory through coordination with the street office, and the property rights will be determined in the future.

The property in the backyard was sold to him by Xu Damao. There's a written agreement, and the certificates have been issued. What's the point of taking it back or redistributing it?

"Soon, the group will be able to handle these loose ends soon."

Li Xuewu took the soap she handed him, rubbed it on his face, and explained while rinsing his face with water, "The Finance Management Department is drafting a document to add a Comprehensive Residential Management Department under the Comprehensive Property Management Company."

"Are these houses really being handled as you say?" Yu Li had heard him explain this to his neighbors in the courtyard and his fellow employees in the same group more than once.

"What else? Give it to the street for free?"

Li Xuewu smiled and was about to use the soap he had just used to wipe his bottom when Yu Li snatched it back.

"A butt isn't necessarily dirtier than a face."

Seeing Yu Li glaring at him, he handed her a bar of soap and couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Whatever, your ass is in your crotch, but your face is facing outwards."

"Get lost, you're just talking nonsense—"

Yu Li complained, "You men are so rough around the edges. No matter how many times I teach you, you can't remember."

"Actually, I'm just lazy." Li Xuewu frankly admitted his shortcomings, but he smiled and agreed to her arrangement, washing his body with soap.

"So how should our department make arrangements?"

Yu Li asked curiously, "Won't this affect our current living environment?"

"No, but adjustments will be made."

Li Xuewu finished rinsing and was about to pull out a towel when Yu Li stopped him.

She seemed to have been waiting for this moment, pointing to the areas he hadn't scrubbed yet, and then made him continue washing.

"I take a bath every three days and shower every day, do I really need to be so meticulous?"

Li Xuewu looked at her amusedly and said, "I'm a man, it's normal for me to have a bit of a smell."

“This is not normal—” Yu Li glared and emphasized, “You need to be mindful of your identity at all times. You are no longer a security officer.”

"Well, your criticism makes sense."

Li Xuewu picked up the soap and continued scrubbing, but she snatched it away and started washing him herself.

Are you worried about new neighbors coming to the courtyard?

He seemed to have guessed Yu Li's thoughts, and smiled as he said, "The final plan hasn't been released yet, but I have made a suggestion. I don't know if it will be adopted in the end, since the finance department makes the decision."

"What?" Yu Li looked up at him curiously and asked, "Aren't you going to make any arrangements?"

“How could that be?” Li Xuewu smirked and said, “The group needs to manage its assets. We’ve already implemented asset swaps and acquisitions in the early stages, and we can continue to implement swaps and internal sales in the later stages.”

"The reason it has been delayed for so long is that the workers' new villages have been built one after another, the relocation of employees is a process, and the renovation of houses also takes time."

"I think our courtyard has been repaired."

Yu Li had him stand under the showerhead and turn on the faucet. He rinsed his hands with the water and stepped back a few paces, saying, "It's like a major renovation."

What she didn't say was that she visited the old house more than once during the renovation of the front yard.

Yes, it's the property that the Yan family used to own.

The traces of her former life there have disappeared, and the last bit of garbage left in the Yan family's home has been cleared away by the construction team. Now it's really clean, with only white walls and glass doors and windows remaining.

“We have a lot of residents in our compound, and some of them are not from the group, so we should relocate some of them.”

Li Xuewu explained, "It means integrating the scattered residents of each courtyard into one courtyard, resulting in more complete courtyard houses."

“Some of the courtyards are large, and the suitable ones will be allocated to the group’s branches for office use.”

After he finished showering, he took the towel and said, "The rest will be integrated into the guesthouse for independent hospitality and external operation."

"What about our department?" Yu Li asked. "What suggestions did you just mention?"

“Exchange and sale,” Li Xuewu explained. “If you have other properties, you can contact the group to exchange them for your current property.”

"Houses that cannot be relocated or whose relocation cannot be completed during the integration process will be resold."

He shrugged and said, "After the workers' new village was built, a lot of houses were vacated. It's impossible for all of them to be completely integrated or coordinated."

"The group can't possibly create another department to manage these paltry few houses, can it?"

"what do you mean……"

Yu Li raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do I still have a chance to buy a house in our compound?"

"They should prioritize the needs of internal employees first, and only sell to the public if they can't sell to other companies."

Li Xuewu glanced at her and asked, "What's wrong? Is the house in the east wing not big enough for you?"

"I've saved up a little money, haven't I?"

Yu Li helped him put on his pajamas and explained, "I'm thinking of buying two more houses for my retirement."

"Hehe—" Li Xuewu couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard her reason.

Yu Li, however, looked at him with a keen eye and asked, "What? Do you think what I said is wrong?"

"Yes, the option of buying a house for retirement has been around for thousands of years, what's wrong with that?"

Li Xuewu followed her out of the restroom and said, "If you want to buy it, I can help you take a look."

"No need to look, I'll buy any house that's for sale. If you don't have enough money, just lend me some."

Yu Li spoke with righteous indignation, took the thermos and refilled his teacup with hot water, saying, "After I pass away, I will leave it all to Li Shu as her dowry."

"For Li Shu?" Li Xuewu said with a laugh, "You may be thinking of her, but she may not even be thinking of you."

"It doesn't matter, I didn't intend to force her."

Yu Li poured herself a glass of water and said calmly, "Don't worry, I don't need her to take care of me in my old age."

"What do I have to worry about?"

Li Xuewu sat on the sofa and said with a smile, "I didn't even expect her to take care of me in my old age."

He crossed his right leg and looked at Yu Li, who was standing there holding a water glass, and said, "Aren't you going to leave some for Yu Zhe?"

“Him? Hmph—” Yu Li snorted in dissatisfaction, “He shouldn’t have this in his life.”

"Just be honest and live a peaceful life."

She knew her brother's character and situation very well. "If I really gave it to him, who knows what kind of person he would become."

Listening to her, Li Xuewu picked up his teacup and took a sip, of course understanding the meaning behind her words.

If she can have a child, then all the properties in these compounds will belong to the child; if he doesn't give her that opportunity, then all the properties will belong to Li Shu.

Why does it have to be in the compound?
The logic is simple: by staying with the Li family and their grandparents, the child will never suffer any injustice.

This also demonstrates her attitude:

Even if they have children, they won't hide it; they'll be open, honest, and selfless.

She doesn't want a title, she doesn't want family property, she even puts her own assets in front of the Li family and Li Xuewu, so what else is there to make things difficult for her and her child?

Li Xuewu didn't respond to her, not because he was afraid she would cause trouble or fight for the family property after having a child.

With the empire he built, as long as his children don't start their own businesses, they'll be able to live off it for generations.

As for what happens several generations from now, are there any enduring and prosperous families in this world?
Once you're beyond five degrees of kinship, you're no longer considered brothers. He wouldn't even think about or care about what happens several lifetimes later.

Even Qin Shi Huang couldn't achieve eternal life, so what is he but a small cookie?

He saw Yu Li's attitude; she didn't want to have a child because she was afraid the child would suffer in the future.

He can satisfy all material needs, but he can't get past Gu Ning on a spiritual level.

Gu Ning did nothing wrong; the mistake was that he treated life like a game and didn't take this kind of thing seriously.

He never asked Gu Ning to do anything, and Gu Ning never asked him to do anything either.

However, he must respond to Gu Ning's silence with appropriate reassurance and assurance that she is the only one.

In fact, you can tell from his choices that he had no intention of growing flowers, whether it was Qin Huairu, Zhang Songying, or even Yu Li.

The first mistake was made by Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao, and they had no choice in the matter.

If we don't save him, he'll hang himself in the house he just bought; if we do save him, there'll be nowhere to entrust him or settle him down.

Don't tell me to find a good man to marry. He really meant to abandon her at the time, but those two canaries would definitely die a terrible death if released.

Not to mention what the two naive girls might encounter if they went out, Ding Wanqiu, who returned in bitterness, would not let them go. If they dared to let go, he would definitely kill them.

why?
Because these two people have too many problems, they have no ability to hide these problems or protect themselves to survive in this world.

Once they fall into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, they will not be able to keep the secret of their master's escape. Ding Wanqiu will be the first to be captured, and Li Xuewu, who was involved in the related transactions, will be the second. Going back, a whole string of related people will be implicated.

Some say that it's best to keep a respectable person at a distance and not touch them, instead of spouting platitudes about benevolence and morality.

Yes, Li Xuewu is indeed not a gentleman, and that's precisely why he doesn't dare to gamble on what bold things these two might do after falling in love.

Never underestimate what a young girl will do for the sake of so-called love.

Rather than watching these two ticking time bombs potentially implicate me at any moment, it's better to deal with them all at once.

On the one hand, it trains them to return to the stage and gives them the opportunity to survive independently; on the other hand, it cuts off their other options in life.

He truly treated the two of them like caged birds, and he did so very well that most people couldn't afford to.

He had similar plans for Zhou Xiaobai, but he didn't intend to use this relationship to control him.

He underestimated Zhou Xiaobai's ruthlessness; this girl actually dared to force herself on him.

It must be said that a daughter of a military family is indeed a tiger.

Honestly, Li Xuewu was already being careful enough. Qin Huairu, Zhang Songying, Zhou Yamei, Yu Li, and Wu Shuping—each of them had their own insurance.

Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao are not related, and Ran Qiuye is desperate. Can you call him a scumbag?

If the other person is a girl, he has a reason to show his love.

Sha Zhu's sister, Yu Shui, is quite pretty, isn't she? She even offered herself to him, but he didn't make a move. That shows how determined he is.

Zhou Xiaoling schemed and plotted to get what she wanted, but it must be said that she made her attitude and desire clear from the beginning; she was not a naive love-struck fool.

Li Xuewu wasn't afraid of her; compared to Zhou Xiaobai, Zhou Xiaoling was just a white lotus flower.

As for getting close to him, it was less about admiration and love and more about actively offering a pledge of allegiance; she was simply too eager to improve herself.

Heaven knows how she, without any background or support, managed to maintain her position and realize her ambitions during the group's turbulent development.

Coincidentally, one of the options is a man she admires and idolizes. What do you think she should choose?

A girl who is a frequent flyer, has firsthand knowledge of high-level developments, a clear mind and career goals, and doesn't care about his money, but only wants a fair chance to compete and psychological reassurance, what do you think she should choose?
He will not allow Yu Li to start another family, but he will definitely wish Zhou Xiaoling well in her love life.

If Zhou Xiaoling gets married one day, he would even be willing to give her a precious gift.

Just like with Qin Huairu, a relationship devoid of emotion might be worth 200 yuan to some people, but for Li Xuewu, it was simply an equivalent replacement for what they wanted.

So Li Xuewu admits he's not a good person, but he's definitely not a scumbag.

Catherine definitely has the right to speak on this point. Even as a woman who's considered a "bad girl," she can't stand Li Xuewu's indecisiveness. This man is too affectionate.

The only thing that could make him hesitate was Lou Xiao'e. Last time in Hong Kong, she even said that she would never set foot on the mainland. How could he not be moved?

Of all these women, only a few were truly willing to risk having children for this relationship. He couldn't possibly send them all away and never have any of them come back, could he?
You can never treat everyone equally. Luckily, he's still young, and so are they. Let's see what happens next.
-
March passed by as children sang "The ducks are the first to know when the river warms in spring," and an even warmer April arrived.

Yu Li put away his wool coat and only let him wear a navy blue executive jacket when he went out.

However, being thoughtful, she still reminded Li Xuewu to wear a wool vest over his shirt.

The vest was knitted by her and was the same color as the jacket. It looked a bit old-fashioned, but on Li Xuewu, it only accentuated his mature temperament.

After all, he is still too young.

In fact, Yu Li had already prepared his clothes for the changing season, including more than one set of vests.

Even when the weather got warmer, she couldn't stand wearing wool, so she made fabric ones with a sewing machine.

Having a woman to serve you makes all the difference; at least your quality of life is greatly improved.

"Secretary-General, it was forwarded from Fengcheng."

Zhang Enyuan walked into the office and handed over a document, reporting in a low voice, "It's a report on the takeover of Tadong Airport."

"Hmm." Li Xuewu responded habitually at first, then stopped writing, looked up, frowned, and asked, "How did it end up here with me?"

"It should be at the request of the group."

Zhang Enyuan explained, "I asked the clerk who transferred the documents, and he mentioned it vaguely."

Li Xuewu took the document and started reading it. Zhang Enyuan took the pen from his hand, tightened the screw, and then he had a pencil in his hand.

The report was very detailed, including information on assets, personnel, and more. It also included a list of issues that urgently needed to be addressed, and a list of potential risks was attached.

This thick report shows that the airport reception team assembled by the group was well-prepared and its personnel organization was quite complete.

"Any news from Shenfei?"

Li Xuewu made markings with his pencil as he read the report.

Upon hearing his question, Zhang Enyuan opened his notebook and reported, "There are no projects related to the Tadon Airport project for the time being. Several projects in cooperation with the group are progressing smoothly, and construction has already begun."

"Oh—" Li Xuewu nodded and continued, "Which engineering company did you use?"

“It’s not United Construction; it should be a local construction company in Fengcheng,” Zhang Enyuan reported. “If you want to know more about this, I’ll contact the machinery factory by phone as soon as I get off the plane to investigate.”

"No need, I just want to know their progress." Li Xuewu turned a page and said, "The office is involved in receiving projects. Have Zhang Jing come over in a bit, and give him this to deliver to the group."

"Okay, I'll contact Director Zhang right away."

Seeing that he had no other requests, Zhang Enyuan glanced at the teacup before leaving.

Since moving to the new office building, the general office is now farther away from Li Xuewu's office.

Not only has his office changed, but Zhang Jing and others are no longer working in the same place.

Zhang Enyuan spearheaded the establishment of an office dedicated to serving him, and also transferred several secretaries from various units and the group to handle document work.

Zhang Jing, along with Wang Min and others, formed their own teams, each dedicated to a specific area.

Wang Min was in charge of engineering projects, and the team he assembled was responsible for overseeing all engineering projects in Liaodong.

Previously, the focus was on statistics and understanding; now, with the added authority of execution and supervision, Li Xuewu's control over various units in Liaodong has been significantly strengthened.

On this point, the heads of all units had no objection. Strengthening communication and leadership was exactly what Li Xuewu came to Liaodong to do. Who would dare to go against the grain?

Moreover, as the group intensifies its efforts to professionalize its various departments, the constraints on them are becoming increasingly tight, and anyone who dares to cause trouble will be facing a change of job.

"Secretary-General, has Tadon Airport been handed over?"

Zhang Jing walked in with a notebook and saw Li Xuewu still looking at documents, so he asked a question.

"Hmm, I don't see anything wrong with it."

Li Xuewu looked up, pushed the documents in his hand to the opposite side, put down his pencil and said, "I've highlighted some points that need special attention. If you have time, make a trip to Fengcheng."

He stood up from his seat, walked to the wall, pointed at the map hanging there, and said, "Go to Fengcheng and first check the authenticity of this report, then check the accuracy of the survey report on the surrounding environment, and finally confirm the planning documents."

"Don't worry about how Shenyang Aircraft Corporation planned this airport before. You need to get a planning opinion from the experts in charge of receiving it. I need that."

Li Xuewu turned to Zhang Jing and instructed, "After you get this information, you don't need to come back. You can go directly from Fengcheng to Beijing and report this information to Director Li, and wait for his next steps."

"Okay, boss." Zhang Jing replied, and after taking notes, asked, "Should I bring the planning suggestions to you when I return, or send them back first?"

"Just bring it to me when you come back, no rush." ​​Li Xuewu walked to his desk, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said, "We already have a plan for the renovation, repair, and construction of Tadong Airport."

"You need to report the true situation there to your superiors and ask them to make adjustments in a timely manner."

He put down his teacup and said, "If necessary, I would like to ask President Xue to come to Fengcheng to take charge of the work. This is my opinion."

"Should we report this to Director Li?" Zhang Jing asked him, looking at him for instructions. "Regarding the suggestion to invite General Manager Xue to Fengcheng."

"Okay, you can report to Director Li as you see fit and say it's my opinion."

Li Xuewu thought for a moment, then looked at Zhang Jing and instructed, "While you're at it, go to the Supervision Department and ask them when they'll be sending a working group down."

With a distant gaze, he casually remarked, "If we don't come soon, the daylilies will be cold."

Zhang Jing really didn't know how to respond to this, so he could only nod in agreement.

Of course, he wouldn't report that sentence verbatim; that would make him look like a complete fool.

Simply asking the question would be enough to represent Li Xuewu's stance, and the supervisory department would understand the implication.

"The working group from the property management company has almost finished its task and will probably be returning to Beijing in the next few days." He tentatively asked, "Would you like to host them? If so, I'll make preparations in advance."

"Is everything finished in Yingcheng as well?"

Li Xuewu thought for a moment and said, "You don't need to worry about this. Let Enyuan coordinate it and see if they have enough time."

He waved his hand dismissively and said, "If there is, we'll arrange it; if not, then forget it."

"Okay, I'll hand over the work to Deputy Director Zhang." He closed his notebook and reported, "During my business trip, all related work will be handled by Deputy Director Zhang. Is that alright, sir?"

"Okay, you two handle it."

Li Xuewu nodded, walked behind his desk and sat down again. He opened the thick stack of study documents and said, "The situation has been a bit tense lately. You should be careful when you go to Beijing. Contact me immediately if you encounter any problems."

“I understand.” Zhang Jing understood what he meant by the tense situation; the Northern Industry Daily had already mentioned the group by name on April 1st.

However, judging from the group's reaction, it seems that they are holding back or turning a blind eye.

However, several major events occurred at the meeting held in mid-March, which also affected the group's work.

Of course, this is his perspective from the Liaodong Industrial Management Office; in reality, it doesn't really affect him much.

He was merely acting as Li Xuewu's representative to hand over and report on the work; there was no need for anyone to make things difficult for him if they were dissatisfied.

This morning, I noticed in the newspaper that Annam (North and South), Cambodia, and Laos are planning a high-level meeting. The authorities have already stated their firm support for the three Indochinese countries in opposing the Ugly Emperor, and consider this support their due internationalist obligation.

It seems that Honggang Group's export business is about to enter a period of great development.
