Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

She was in such a hurry!

"What's the rush? I'm not some old maid in my fifties or sixties. I have plenty of men chasing after me."

Xiao Dang was fearless; it wasn't that she was ugly or had a bad figure, or that no one wanted her.

She has no shortage of men pursuing her.

Unfortunately, many people came not for her as a person, but for her money.

She looked down on those who came solely for her.

Actually, it's not that she doesn't want to find someone.

I just haven't met anyone suitable, I can't find anyone.

You can't just settle for anyone and live a casual life, can you?

Xiao Dang was not happy about this, as she had spent a lot of time with Yang Jianguo and Yingzi when she was little.

That kind of relationship is what she wants.

If you let her just find anyone and make do, she'll be able to get by.

That's definitely not going to work out; they might just get a divorce someday.

"Fine, never mind."

Sha Zhu raised his hand, signaling her to stop.

These words were only meant to be said to him; if they were said to Qin Huairu, her own mother...

He was given a big slap and then went up there.

You're thinking about divorce before the marriage is even over? Do you really intend to live a good life with someone like that?

"I'm sincere, but I haven't found the right one yet."

Xiao Dang replied dismissively, noticing that Sha Zhu remained silent.

She ran up to him ingratiatingly, hooked her arms around his, and said with a smile, "Uncle He, why don't you introduce me to someone?"

"Go away, where am I supposed to introduce you to people? You wouldn't even look at the people I know."

Hearing him say that, Xiao Dang immediately retorted, "Who said that? You cook for the big boss and you know all those women, but none of them are suitable for me?"

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu knew what she meant.

Good heavens, they're eyeing the children of officials.

However, upon further reflection...

The children of cadres are people too. They don't seem any different from others in the past, except that they are more educated.

Xiao Dang is good-looking, has a great figure, and can handle all kinds of work, both inside and outside the home.

Her qualifications are no worse than anyone else's.

Rubbing his chin, Sha Zhu actually felt he could give her a little boost.

"Okay, I'll ask around for you when I have the chance."

Sha Zhu agreed, but also warned him beforehand: "Don't blame me if it doesn't work out!"

Helping others only leads to getting yourself involved.

In the end, it often turns out to be helping your enemies; this kind of thing happens quite often.

"Uncle He, what are you saying? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Xiao Dang stomped her foot, gave a cutesy look, and turned to go back to the restaurant.

She also had to go and take care of the kitchen staff; the auction was about to start.

Chapter 482 Ingredients, an Invitation from Japan

At 10 o'clock, Li Aimin arrived in his Santana.

A Jiefang truck followed behind, its cargo bed filled with all sorts of boxes.

Some were filled with water, some were chilled, and some were cages containing birds.

The wide variety of ingredients were mostly brought back from abroad by him.

To clear customs, you need a permit.

Li Aimin spent a lot of money in Shenzhen; the price of a travel permit was often more expensive than the ingredients themselves.

To be honest, this is all my brother-in-law's fault.

According to customs officials, the proposal on "the harm and prevention of invasive species" was put forward by an expert surnamed Yang at the Imperial City Economic Discussion Conference.

Only after that will various strict restrictions on foreign products appear.

This is no joke; it's important to know which port the goods enter the country from.

The entire line, from top to bottom, must be completely stripped bare and shut down.

Therefore, no one dares to joke about this.

Li Aimin paid the money, bribed officials, and used his connections to get someone to pass on the message.

In the end, they still sent two people to follow them.

They must guard against it at all costs. Those who come to Tianxia Village must personally witness the complete extinction of all the species they bring in before they can leave.

He had to pay for all the round-trip tickets, accommodation, and expenses.

Li Aimin got out of the car, muttering, "If this trip doesn't work, I'll be at a huge loss."

"Love the people."

Upon seeing others, Sha Zhu enthusiastically stepped forward to greet them and took out his money.

This is our major financial backer; if Tianxiazhuang wants to expand externally, it will have to rely on his support.

"Master He, let's get someone to move it!"

He lit a cigarette and glanced at the truck bed in the direction Li Aimin was pointing.

Sha Zhu waved to the workers at the door and shouted, "Move!"

The inspector accompanying the vehicle kept shouting, "Slow down, don't damage the boxes."

Sha Zhu asked with some curiosity, "Who are these two?"

After being explained to him, Sha Zhu was secretly astonished, never expecting that organizing an ingredient auction would be so complicated.

"Master He, Master Wang is here."

Hearing the shouts behind him, Sha Zhu turned around and saw that the masters from the Eight Great Villages had arrived.

He patted Aimin on the shoulder and then ran off to greet the others.

This event is just for outsiders to watch and enjoy.

However, it caused quite a stir in the catering industry of the capital city, and can be considered a major event.

If the event goes smoothly, it will help to make Tianxiazhuang famous.

From now on, holding an auction every year will undoubtedly become Tianxiazhuang's most impressive resume and brand.

……

"Boss, someone named Li Aimin called you, asking if you have time to come to the restaurant to support us?"

Hearing Han Xi's voice, Yang Jianguo remembered that today was the opening day of Tianxiazhuang.

After glancing at the work in front of him, Yang Jianguo thought for a moment and said, "Tell him I'll come over after I get off work tonight."

"Oh, by the way, tell my wife that I'll have Xiao Duan pick her up after get off work."

"Ok."

Han Xi went out to make a phone call, and Yang Jianguo also picked up the phone.

"Xiao Wu, tell them that I have accepted Neon Heavy Industries' invitation."

Yang Jianguo received an invitation from Neon Heavy Industries to attend the Kyoto Global Cutting-Edge Technology Exchange Conference.

The sheer number of companies on the list made it impossible for Yang Jianguo to refuse the invitation.

However, he still needs to submit a report to the new leader first.

"To Neon?"

Expert Liu called his secretary in and only then did he learn about the invitation letter.

He has been busy with the power struggles at the top of the "Great Wall" organization recently, and has inevitably neglected his work at his unit.

Besides, it's not necessary to report this to him.

"...We must go, but we also need to take precautions in terms of security."

“I went there through official channels. If the Japanese don’t want to be attacked, they’re more concerned about my safety than you are.”

As the only permanent representative in the world with five communications, he also single-handedly developed two bombs.

They were in a rare honeymoon period with the Eagle family, which terrified the Japanese.

Various gestures of goodwill have attracted a large number of inland students studying abroad.

Instill in them the idea that 'neon is friendly and our people are kind.'

If the mainland wants to settle scores with us, please speak up for us. We've treated you very well.

These international students are given various preferential treatments, including money, resources, and free trips to Japan every year.

So much so that some people mistakenly believe that Japan has become a reformed, model student.

Pro-Japan sentiments also began to spread on a small scale.

Actually, it was because Xiao Nihong was terrified and offered such a small favor in order to protect herself.

It has nothing to do with kindness or whether the international student is inherently excellent.

This is why Yang Jianguo dared to entrust Du Nihong with the task; if it were John Bull instead...

He really needs to think carefully about how long the honeymoon period between the Inland and the Eagle families will last, and whether there is a risk of being detained.

"You're right."

The new leader, putting aside his nervousness, chuckled and said, "Since you're confident, I agree to let you go. I'll submit your application for you."

"Thank you, sir. I'll wait for your reply."

"Hey, the sun has risen in the west."

"Respecting leaders is the right thing to do. A good leader like you is admirable. You're busy..."

Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Expert Liu hung up the phone somewhat bewildered.

All the words were nice, but they sounded so unreliable coming from Yang Jianguo's mouth.

Does that sound like an insult?

Xiao Duan was driving, and Yang Jianguo was sitting in the back.

On his way to pick up Yingzi, he kept thinking about the meeting he was going to Kyoto for.

When negotiating partnerships with large corporations, you need to find some professionals first.

Especially when it comes to legal matters, we'd rather spend more money unnecessarily than cut corners.

Yang Jianguo has always been one to save money wherever possible, but he had no intention of doing so in this regard.

Instead, they need to hire several experts from abroad at high salaries to be specifically responsible for drafting and reviewing contracts.

The requirement is a thorough understanding of domestic law, international law, business law, and so on.

The losses we suffered in this matter were far too severe.

Yang Jianguo must be on guard!

After much thought, Lou Xiao'e seemed the most suitable candidate to poach the talent.

The Lou family is now quite famous, and even has a small international reputation.
