Best friends transmigrate into a book! They marry a high-ranking official! If you run, I run too!

There's a saying that goes something like this: even the best wine needs advertising.

She was also afraid of wasting her product.

Haishi is a big city; beautiful, interesting, and novel things always spread here first.

After that, other places rushed to imitate and use it.

Upon hearing Wen Tang's words, Gu Yanli immediately thought of something: "If you set up a factory in Haishi, will you live here from now on?"

Wen Tang nodded, "Of course!"

"Otherwise, who will take care of things here?"

Gu Yanli immediately got up and ran outside, saying, "I'll go ask the political commissar right now."

He took a step forward, then stopped. "What about the ones at home?"

"Aren't you making soap anymore?"

"Go ahead and do it. It won't interfere with either of them, since they're not far apart."

"And once this place is established, we can simply move our old house here."

Gu Yanli nodded, "Reliable!"

After saying that Battalion Commander Gu was reliable, he immediately went to find his superior.

"Set up a factory?"

The political commissar glanced at Gu Yanli and asked, "Are you confused?"

"We're not allowed to engage in personal financial activities, don't you know that?"

Gu Yanli nodded, "I know!"

"You already know, so why are you asking me?"

"It's not in an individual's name, it's a collective one."

“集体？”

Which group?

Gu Yanli pointed to himself, then to the political commissar.

The political commissar's thick eyebrows were almost twisted into a pretzel.

The political commissar raised his hand, signaling Gu Yanli to remain silent for the moment. "You mean, your wife wants to set up a factory in the name of our military unit?"

Gu Yanli nodded.

The political commissar simply said, "Nonsense!"

“From now on, we will give priority to retiring soldiers and arrange jobs for their wives who come looking for work,” Gu Yanli said.

The stern look that had settled on the political commissar's face gradually dissipated, "Just..."

"I'm afraid even the higher-ups won't approve it."

“This…is unprecedented,” the political commissar said, his expression changing.

Gu Yanli smiled and said, "There must be a way, right?"

Gu Yanli also knew that it probably wouldn't work to do it in the name of the military.

However, if the program specifically targets the wives of demobilized soldiers who have accompanied them to the military, the higher-ups will definitely find a way to help.

The political commissar paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. "I'll talk to the higher-ups about this first. As for the specifics, that's up to the leaders."

"Okay, thank you, Political Commissar."

The political commissar waved his hand and said, "If it really works out, it would be a good thing."

Gu Yanli nodded repeatedly, "Indeed, it's a good thing."

For him, this was an incredibly good thing.

He will no longer have to live apart from his wife.

Gu Yanli quickly ran back.

He told Wen Tang, "The political commissar said he would raise this matter with the higher-ups and get back to you in a while."

Wen Tang fiddled with what she was holding without looking up. "Well, it's not a big rush."

Gu Yanli “…”

"Let's hurry, it's better to be in a hurry."

"Ok?"

"The military values ​​efficiency."

"Oh, that!"

"Ok!"

Gu Yanli was right. The military does value efficiency. The political commissar and the others discussed the matter in the regiment for three days and roughly determined its feasibility before reporting it to their superiors.

When we reported this matter to our superiors, none of us really knew what to expect.

No one knew whether they were being praised or scolded for being silly.

However, this is not something that can be decided by one person alone.

Finally, the matter was passed on to the highest local leader.

Zhou Zhenghong, the highest-ranking local official, listened to the report from his subordinates and raised his eyebrows in surprise: "A military spouse wants to start a factory to provide jobs for veterans and their spouses?"

"This is a good thing!"

"But what kind of factory would she set up?"

"We can't do it in the name of our military!"

"Our troops don't get involved in this."

"She needs to seek help from somewhere."

"It will belong to the local collective at that time."

"However, if needed, we can help pass on a message."

The subordinate who reported this shook his head with a smile, "It doesn't specify what kind of factory to set up, probably because they're afraid you'll reject it."

"Their group also thought that we should act as a go-between and ask the local authorities to do them a favor."

"Okay, send someone over later so I can meet them and hear the details."

"Yes!"

Ten days have passed since Wen Tang proposed setting up a factory.

Wen Tang has also started making lipsticks in various colors.

She has already given away quite a few of these lipsticks.

Some of the fashion-conscious women in the compound have already started using it.

Everyone says it looks good.

However, the political commissar did not respond to this matter.

Wen Tang thought this matter would probably just fade away.

However, it's understandable. After all, the military is a serious place, and they wouldn't allow others to use the military's name to do things!

Having given up on the matter, Wen Tang gathered a few pretty colors and put them in her bag, preparing to go to the art troupe again to give these nice ones to Su Xiuxiu.

As soon as she closed the door, a soldier came over to her and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you going out?"

Wen Tang smiled and nodded, "Yes, to visit a friend."

The orderly suggested, "Sister-in-law, how about we go another day?"

"Ok?"

"Here's the thing, the regimental commander asked me to call you, saying he wants to take you out with Battalion Commander Gu."

Commander?

She's been here for so many days, and the most she's ever seen is Deputy Regiment Commander Shen. As for the regimental commander, she doesn't even know if he's round or flat.

Why does he suddenly want to take me out?

Wen Tang guessed what was going on.

He immediately nodded, "Then I..."

Wen Tang looked down at herself. She was going to the city to see Su Xiuxiu, and her clothes and shoes were clean. There seemed to be nothing inappropriate about them. "Let's go!"

Then she followed the orderly downstairs.

At the entrance of the military base, Gu Yanli was already waiting in front of a military green jeep.

Upon seeing Gu Yanli, Wen Tang jogged over to him.

She jogged over and was about to speak to Gu Yanli when she saw the passenger door being opened from the inside.

Then a serious-looking man, around forty years old, got out of the passenger seat.

However, the other person's serious face only lasted until they got off the bus; once they stood still, the corners of their mouth turned up.

Gu Yanli introduced them to each other, "Commander, this is my wife, Wen Tang."

"Wen Tang, this is our regimental commander."

"Greetings, Commander!" Wen Tang fawned over him, extending both hands to shake hands politely.

Although the other person had a serious expression, their tone was very gentle: "Get in the car!"

Then, Gu Yanli and Wen Tang sat in the back row, while Chen Kang, a regimental commander, sat in the passenger seat.

Since it was a young couple, it wouldn't be appropriate for him to sit with anyone else, so he took the passenger seat early on.

The car soon arrived at the military headquarters.

After passing through several checkpoints, Wen Tang and Gu Yanli walked behind Chen Kang and arrived at an office.

The person leading the way knocked on the office door.

"Enter!"

The other party went inside, while Wen Tang and the others continued to wait outside.

However, after only a short while, the man came out and said, "Please come in, you three."

Chen Kang nodded politely to the other party, then led Gu Yanli and Wen Tang inside.

Zhou Zhenghong, whose temples were slightly gray, sat behind his desk and only looked up when the person approached.
