Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

babble~

Upon actually seeing these electronic components, Yang Jianguo's mouth watered.

Damn, these things smell so good!

And there's that brand-new 'electrolytic polishing machine,' Yang Jianguo stepped forward, touched the surface of the metal sheet, and exclaimed, 'Great, this is great!'

Seeing his expression, the big leader burst into laughter, and Lou Xiao'e was left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

It seems that my gift has truly touched my heart.

"With these, the foundation of the research lab is finally in place." After waiting for so long, we can finally get to work.

Aside from heading south, I didn't rest during this time.

But in Yang Jianguo's view, it was all just busywork, with people spending all their time fiddling with data on paper.

It's not going anywhere, and I'm really anxious.

Now that's good, we've got the basic framework in place, and we can add the rest gradually later.

The current 'Precision Engineering Research Institute' is just like a newlywed couple.

We don't have many belongings at home, but we're full of enthusiasm and work together towards a common goal.

It's okay to be poor for now; sooner or later we'll have to get all the big and small items we need!

"Chief, Director." Xiang Shaodong, whom Wu Mei had sent to fetch, arrived and immediately spotted the machine in front of him.

They're even greeting people over here!

My feet moved up uncontrollably, staring at those air nozzles that were still wrapped and unopened.

Several large blowers, each the size of a grain mill, and two polishing machines placed nearby.

I reached out to touch it, but pulled my hand back just as I was about to reach it.

His hesitant, fearful look was even more pathetic than before: "Touch it if you want, it won't hurt."

Hearing him say that, Xiang Shaodong carefully placed his hand on the panel.

Cool and slippery...

But the moment his fingers touched her, Xiang Shaodong reacted as if he had been set on fire.

His pupils swayed, his cheeks flushed, and his fingers trembled as he rested them on the machine.

"Great, great!" Xiang Shaodong was so excited he couldn't contain himself.

It's been so many years since I've seen these intricately designed instruments.

In Xiang Shaodong's eyes, that was even more beautiful than mountains of gold and silver.

"Alright." Yang Jianguo stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Everyone is truly terrified of being poor.

Being poor means you have to be bullied and have to be subservient to others.

Why can we still focus on production and development even when we've been wronged?

It's not just about sentimentality!

Some of the feelings expressed in it are not something I experienced or witnessed in this era.

It's so hard to truly empathize.

"Don't worry, I'll go with you right now and make sure I take good care of these devices."

Hearing him say that, Yang Jianguo wanted to offer some advice, telling him not to move in there directly.

Seeing the seriousness in his eyes, Yang Jianguo opened his mouth, chuckled, and patted his shoulder hard.

Without saying anything, they let the person leave.

There's no point in trying to persuade him now; let him calm down on his own.

After the people and equipment are sent away, the higher-ups also need to go down to the lower levels for a meeting.

In order to receive Lou Xiao'e, he kept pushing back the time.

The already tight schedule has become even more pressing.

The senior leader left with his secretary and driver, leaving only Yang Jianguo and Lou Xiao'e in the open space downstairs.

Seeing that she didn't seem to be leaving, Yang Jianguo smiled and said, "Please come to my office for a cup of tea, you're our great hero."

"Okay, as long as Director Yang doesn't find me troublesome," Lou Xiao'e said with a smile.

Yang Jianguo said seriously, "How could that be? You deserve a lot of credit for this trip."

When they arrived at the office, Yang Jianguo left the door open: "Wu Mei, make two cups of tea, bring me my best tea leaves."

"Okay, Director." Wu Mei came in to get a cup and tea, while Lou Xiao'e was also looking around his office.

Yesterday, after dinner, it was already quite late.

The high-ranking leader arranged for a car to take her away, and the two of them didn't exchange many words.

Today, Lou Xiao'e has a lot to say.

But when she actually sat there, facing Yang Jianguo in person, all those words in her heart fell silent.

"These years on Jiangdao Island must have been tough, right?"

Seeing her complicated expression, Yang Jianguo changed the subject to her experiences over the years.

There's not much to say about myself; I just want to live a down-to-earth life.

Lou Xiao'e's experiences over the years must be quite remarkable.

Don't underestimate the air nozzles in the air shower room; by today's standards, they represent truly high-precision technology.

It's not something you can usually get done; even if you have connections, you still have to go through multiple rounds of review and get approval from a dedicated department before you can get it out.

Lou Xiao'e's ability to obtain this was something he never expected.

However, the thought of system intervention comes next.

Yang Jianguo had a general idea of ​​what was going on, and his expectations for the system grew even higher.

He'd already decided to install one less set of nozzles and use it for replication...

Cough cough, let's take a look.

I don't have many strengths, just one.

Being diligent and eager to learn, there's nothing wrong with that, right?

Upon hearing him mention this, Lou Xiao'e opened up: "When I first arrived, I was unfamiliar with the place and the people, so it was a bit difficult to adapt."

"But as we gradually gained a foothold, and with my father's years of planning, we were able to integrate smoothly into the local business community, and our lives got better and better."

Lou Xiao'e paused for a moment when this was mentioned, then asked in return, "And you, how have you been these past few years?"

"Okay, didn't you see it?"

Yang Jianguo opened his arms and laughed, "What's wrong with me? I work hard, live a down-to-earth life, have a harmonious marriage, and my children are obedient and filial."

"How so?" Yang Jianguo thought for a moment and said, "I can say that my life has been fulfilling."

Hearing his words, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but laugh: "Is that all?"

He was smiling on the surface, but why was his heart filled with bitterness?

Is his life truly fulfilling?

"Absolutely." Yang Jianguo replied casually, pausing slightly, "If there's anything else I wish for, it's to get the research institute's team up and operational as soon as possible!"

These practical demands are exactly what Yang Jianguo is thinking.

Those lofty slogans are used to motivate people in necessary situations.

What's truly needed now are down-to-earth, pragmatic doers.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Lou Xiao'e also wanted to contribute her own strength.

Otherwise, why would she risk coming back when the situation is so uncertain?

She does not deny that part of the reason was for Yang Jianguo.

But his desire to contribute to his family was also sincere.

The Lou family's development on Jiangdao Island is quite good; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to acquire that equipment so easily.

She will do whatever Yang Jianguo asks, as long as it's within her power.

Upon hearing her mention this, Yang Jianguo felt that they should bring in a high-ranking leader.

The three of them had a small meeting to discuss whether some of his ideas could be put into practice.

Chapter 307 The Lou Family's Opportunity: Confession Leads to Leniency

"Would it be possible to establish a company on Jiangdao Island through a public-private partnership?"

Lou Xiao'e was quite surprised after hearing his idea.

"What's wrong with it? From the outside, you're an independent company."

"Once conditions allow, and trade is established between the inland and the islands, what does having multiple shareholders matter?"

Yang Jianguo spoke with certainty and naturalness because he had foresight.

Judging from his experiences over the years, the major events were roughly similar to those in his previous life.

This means that Ejima will still return in 97.

Later, trade between the two places will gradually be liberalized, and a large number of island owners will flock to the mainland under the lure of profits.

Is it strange that the big bosses who have risen rapidly in the mainland are investing in Jiangdao?

"Jianguo, you said you would open up." Lou Xiao'e looked outside, as if afraid someone would jump out.

Seeing that there was no movement in the corridor, she leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "Could it be true?"

Yang Jianguo nodded and said, "It's true, but you should keep this to yourself and not spread it around for now."

"Yes, I understand." Lou Xiao'e nodded in agreement.

Considering that the two sides would cooperate in the future, Yang Jianguo also wanted to use the Lou family to achieve some goals.

Yang Jianguo believed it was necessary to elevate the Lou family's power to a new level.

"Go south, see more, listen more. Shanghai is also a good place to go."

"As for Beijing, it's best to stay out of it for the next year or two."

Yang Jianguo's advice to her was pertinent, but it cannot be said that he was simply taking advantage of her.

With his support and guidance, the Lou family's development was far more rapid than before.

He could also use the Lou family's connections to transport some equipment and raw materials that were otherwise unavailable to China for use.

To catch up, technology alone is not enough.

Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. What's the use of being so capable if someone is choking you and refusing to give you rice?

With the Lou family's previous abilities and connections, opening a restaurant?

This is a complete waste of talent!

You might make money, but that's all you make.

Following his plan would be more than just making money.

However, these are all things for later.

To determine the specifics of what to do, we need to discuss it with the top leader and then meet with Mr. Lou.

He still calls the shots when it comes to the Lou family's affairs.

In Jiangdao's words, he's the one in charge!

After the handover was completed, Lou Xiao'e invited him to lunch before lunchtime.

Yang Jianguo politely declined, saying, "The cafeteria is fine. I can eat here. I have a meeting this afternoon."
