The soul traveled through Qi Tongwei and ruined Liang Ping's dream of living a comfortable life

In the context of the 1990s, although the cooperation between the two towns achieved some results, it also faced a lot of external pressure and doubts.

One day, some rumors suddenly spread in the town. Someone said: "What good can we get from cooperating with Chengguan Town? They must want to take advantage of us."

When Qi Tongwei heard these words, he immediately called a meeting of the town cadres.

Qi Tongwei said solemnly: "Comrades, there are many voices outside who question our cooperation with Chengguan Town. We must not lose our composure."

Yang Longjiang said: "Secretary Qi, these people just don't understand the situation. We have to find a way to make them understand the benefits of cooperation."

Qi Tongwei nodded and said, "Yes, we must take action and do a good job of publicity."

On the other hand, Chengguan Town is facing a similar situation.

"Everyone has heard those rumors, right? We cannot be affected by them and must remain confident in our cooperation," Meng Yuanjiang said at a meeting in Chengguan Town.

Xu Qiaonian responded: "Secretary Meng, we must take practical actions to let everyone see the results of our cooperation."

Soon, the two towns jointly held an exhibition of the results of their cooperation.

At the exhibition, Qi Tongwei said loudly to the crowd: "Fellow villagers, our cooperation with Chengguan Town has achieved initial results. The factory has been built, there are more employment opportunities, and everyone's income has also increased."

One member of the public questioned: "Can this last? It's not just a temporary excitement."

Qi Tongwei answered firmly: "We have a plan and a goal. As long as we work together, the future will only get better and better."

Meng Yuanjiang also said: "Our Chengguan Town is also sincerely cooperating with everyone for common development."

As the cooperation progressed, some external competitive pressures gradually emerged. Seeing the results of the cooperation between the two towns, other surrounding towns followed suit and increased their efforts in development.

At a regional economic exchange meeting, leaders from other townships ridiculed Qi Tongwei and Meng Yuanjiang.

"How long can this cooperation last? Don't let it end up in vain."

Qi Tongwei did not back down and responded: "We are determined and confident, and we are not afraid of competition."

Meng Yuanjiang also said: "Our cooperation is based on complementary advantages, not impulsive."

After returning to the two towns, Qi Tongwei, Meng Yuanjiang and Xu Qiaonian gathered together again to discuss countermeasures.

Qi Tongwei said: "Now the competition pressure is great, we have to find ways to improve our product quality and service level."

Meng Yuanjiang agreed: "Yes, we also need to expand sales channels and not just limit ourselves to the local market."

Xu Qiaonian went on to say: "We can organize people to go to other places to study and learn from advanced experiences."

Therefore, the two towns sent a group of key personnel to the big city for investigation.

After returning from the investigation, at a sharing session, one investigator said: "The world outside is changing so much. We have to speed up our pace."

Everyone nodded, full of enthusiasm.

However, new problems arose during the cooperation process: the processing plant jointly built by the two towns had aging equipment and product quality fluctuated.

Some customers began to complain, and some even proposed to terminate the cooperation.

At the emergency meeting, Qi Tongwei said anxiously: "This won't do. We have to solve the equipment problem quickly."

Meng Yuanjiang frowned and said, "But it will cost a lot of money to update the equipment."

Xu Qiaonian thought for a moment and said, "Can we get a loan from the bank?"

After some effort, we finally got a loan from the bank, updated the equipment and solved the quality problems.

Just when everyone was relieved, new troubles arose. Due to changes in market demand, the product was unsalable.

Merchants in both towns are worried.

Lao Wang, a merchant in the town, said to Qi Tongwei: "Secretary Qi, what should we do? The goods cannot be sold and are piled up in the warehouse."

Qi Tongwei comforted him: "Don't worry, let's find a solution together."

Old Li, a merchant in Chengguan Town, also found Meng Yuanjiang and said, "Secretary Meng, we need to find a solution quickly."

Meng Yuanjiang said: "We have to organize sales staff to explore new markets."

Xu Qiaonian said: "Yes, we can also organize some promotional activities to attract customers."

After everyone's efforts, we finally opened up a new market and solved the problem of slow sales.

At a party held by the two towns, Qi Tongwei said with emotion: "It has not been easy along the way, but we have made it through."

Meng Yuanjiang smiled and said: "Yes, as long as we have firm beliefs, no difficulties can defeat us."

Xu Qiaonian raised his glass and said, "Cheers to our cooperation and our future!"

As the cooperation between the two towns deepened, Meng Yuanjiang and Xu Qiaonian faced increasing work pressure, and family problems gradually emerged.

One day, Meng Yuanjiang's wife Liu Mei couldn't help complaining, "Meng, you are busy with work every day and you don't care about the family affairs at all. The children's academic performance has declined, but you don't care about it."

Meng Yuanjiang said helplessly: "This is a critical period for cooperation between the two towns. I really can't spare the time."

Liu Mei said angrily: "Do you still want this family?"

Meng Yuanjiang hurriedly comforted them, "Don't be angry. I will definitely spend more time with you after this busy period."

Xu Qiaonian's situation is not optimistic either. His parents are in poor health and need care, but he always has no time to go home.

Xu Qiaonian's wife Wang Li complained: "Qiaonian, you don't even have time to come back to see your parents when they are sick. Is that reasonable?"

Xu Qiaonian said guiltily: "Li, I know I am sorry for you, but this cooperation project concerns the future of the two towns."

Wang Li sighed and said, "I know you are doing this for work, but you can't ignore our family."

At a work meeting between the two towns, Meng Yuanjiang and Xu Qiaonian privately discussed their family troubles.

Meng Yuanjiang said with a bitter face: "Qiao Nian, this hurdle at home is not easy to get through."

Xu Qiaonian nodded and said, "Who says it's not true? But we can't give up this job."

Meng Yuanjiang said: "We have to think of a way to try to strike a balance."

Xu Qiaonian said: "I can only try to find time to explain things to my family."

One weekend not long after, Meng Yuanjiang took time out to take his children to the park.

The child said happily: "Dad, you finally have time to accompany me."

Meng Yuanjiang felt guilty and said, "Baby, Dad will try to spend more time with you in the future."

Xu Qiaonian asked his relatives to help take care of his parents, and he rushed home to visit them after get off work.

Xu Qiaonian's parents said: "Son, work is important, we understand."

With tears in his eyes, Xu Qiaonian said: "Mom and Dad, thank you for your understanding."

However, the cooperation between the two towns encountered new difficulties. A batch of raw materials had quality problems, resulting in the product being unable to be delivered on time.

At the emergency meeting, Meng Yuanjiang said anxiously: "What should we do? The customer is pressing us hard."

Xu Qiaonian frowned and said, "Hurry up and contact the supplier to see if we can exchange the goods."

However, the supplier shirked responsibility and was unwilling to exchange the goods.

Meng Yuanjiang said angrily: "They are dishonest. We have to resolve this through legal means."

Xu Qiaonian said: "Yes, we can't let them succeed."

In the process of dealing with this matter, the two invested a lot of time and energy, and the family aspect was once again neglected.

Liu Mei called Meng Yuanjiang and said, "Meng, do you still want this family?"

Meng Yuanjiang could only persuade her kindly: "Dear, give me a little more time, the problem will be solved soon."

Wang Li also got angry at Xu Qiaonian and said, "You only care about work. You don't want this family anymore, right?"

Xu Qiaonian said helplessly: "Li, I really can't do anything, this is a critical moment."

After some effort, the problem of raw materials was finally solved, but the family relationship between the two became tense.

Meng Yuanjiang and Xu Qiaonian got together again to discuss.

Meng Yuanjiang said: "Qiao Nian, we can't abandon our family because of work."

Xu Qiaonian said: "Yes, I have to think of a way to ease the relationship with my family."

So, they decided to pay more attention to their family besides work and try to make up for their previous shortcomings.

Meng Yuanjiang bought a gift for his wife, and Liu Mei's expression finally eased a little.

Meng Yuanjiang said: "Wife, I will pay attention to it in the future."

Liu Mei said: "I hope you will do what you say."

Xu Qiaonian took his family out for a trip, and Wang Li's mood also improved.

Xu Qiaonian said: "Let's go out more often in the future."

Wang Li said: "As long as you have the intention, it's fine."

At this time, the cooperative project between the two towns ushered in a new opportunity, and a large enterprise expressed its intention to cooperate.

Meng Yuanjiang and Xu Qiaonian were very excited, but at the same time they were also worried that family problems would arise again.

Meng Yuanjiang said: "We have to tell our family in advance this time."

Xu Qiaonian said: "Yes, we can't let them complain anymore."

After communicating patiently with their families, the two received their support.

At the negotiation table with the big companies, Meng Yuanjiang said confidently: "The cooperation between our two towns has broad prospects."

Xu Qiaonian went on to say: “We are confident that we can bring rich returns to your company.”

Finally, the two sides successfully reached a cooperation, and the development of the two towns ushered in a new chapter.

As time went by, Meng Yuanjiang and Xu Qiaonian's children became increasingly dissatisfied with their busy work.

During a dinner, Meng Yuanjiang's son Meng Fei couldn't help but complain: "Dad, you are always busy with work. You have never attended the parent-teacher conference at my school!" Meng Yuanjiang said with a guilty look on his face: "Son, Dad is doing this for the development of our town. I will definitely make it up to you when I am done with this busy period." Meng Fei said angrily: "You always say this. I am tired of hearing it!"

Xu Qiaonian's daughter Xu Xiao also complained to him: "Dad, you even forgot my birthday. My classmates all laughed at me." Xu Qiaonian explained helplessly: "Xiao'er, Dad is really too busy. Don't be angry with Dad." Xu Xiao said aggrievedly: "I just know that work is more important than me!"

The cooperative project between the two towns has entered a critical stage, and Meng Yuanjiang and Xu Qiaonian are extremely busy.

One day, Meng Fei had a fight with a classmate at school, and the teacher called Meng Yuanjiang to go to school. Meng Yuanjiang rushed to the school and said to Meng Fei sternly: "How could you fight?" Meng Fei cried and shouted: "They said I don't have a father to take care of me, I am so angry!" Meng Yuanjiang felt sad and said: "Son, it's Dad's fault."

Xu Xiao participated in the school's art performance, hoping that Xu Qiaonian would come to watch, but Xu Qiaonian did not show up in the end. Xu Xiao said to her mother disappointedly: "Mom, I will never count on Dad again."

However, a chance encounter changed the children's minds.

The school organized students to visit the exhibition of the achievements of the cooperation between the two towns, and Meng Fei and Xu Xiao both participated.

In the exhibition hall, the children saw the great changes in the two towns. The old dilapidated houses disappeared, replaced by brand new high-rise buildings; the streets were spacious and clean, lined with green trees and colorful flowers; in the park, the elderly practiced Tai Chi leisurely and the children played happily.

What surprised them even more was that many new factories had been built here, with machines roaring and workers working busily. The market was crowded with people and full of goods, a prosperous scene.

Meng Fei and Xu Xiao looked at everything in front of them, their hearts filled with emotion. Meng Fei said in surprise: "It turns out that what Dad does is so meaningful." Xu Xiao also murmured to himself: "Dad's work is so important."

After returning home, Meng Fei took the initiative to say to Meng Yuanjiang: "Dad, I won't blame you anymore. I know you are doing great things." Meng Yuanjiang touched his son's head with relief and said: "My son has grown up."

Xu Xiao also wrote a long letter to Xu Qiaonian who was working far away: "Dad, now I know why you are always so busy. You are working hard for our big family, and I am proud of you! I hope you can take care of your health and not overwork yourself. I will study hard and contribute to society like you when I grow up."

Xu Qiaonian was so excited when he received the letter from his daughter that his eyes became wet. He held the letter tightly to his chest, feeling his daughter's deep love and understanding.

Unfortunately, Meng Yuanjiang suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized. When Meng Fei learned the news, he rushed to the hospital immediately and stayed by his father's bedside day and night. He took good care of his father, feeding him water, wiping his body, chatting with him, and doing his best to make his father feel warm and cared for.

Meng Yuanjiang was touched to see his son being so sensible. He said, "Thank you, son. Dad is really happy." Meng Fei replied firmly, "Don't worry, Dad. I will take good care of you. When you recover, we will go to see those beautiful scenery together as a family."

Not long after, Meng Yuanjiang recovered and was discharged from the hospital. When he stood on the ruins again, tears flashed in his eyes. He remembered those difficult days and the time he spent with his family. Today, this land has been rejuvenated, and all this is inseparable from the hard work of him and his colleagues.

Xu Qiaonian worked overtime until late and came home very late. He found that Xu Xiao had left him a bowl of hot soup and a note: "Dad, thank you for your hard work. Take care of yourself." Xu Qiaonian felt warm in his heart.

Meng Fei and Xu Xiao also arrived at the celebration meeting in the two towns.

Meng Fei said to Xu Xiao: "Our fathers are really amazing." Xu Xiao smiled and nodded: "Yes, we want to be like them in the future."
