During the meal, Huo Haoshen noticed that his sister seemed distracted, so he asked, "Didn't you go to see the boss today? Why are you still so distracted?"

Faced with Huo Haoshen's question, Ruan Ruan just rolled her eyes at him, then put down her chopsticks. "Grandpa, today the leaders asked about the school and Principal Fu Yuanbo. The more I think about it, the more something seems off. Do you think the leaders are thinking about reinstating the college entrance examination? The way he asked me today was to remind me that the teachers at Yuncheng School are all old professors who were sent down to the countryside. If the college entrance examination is really reinstated, they will all be transferred back, and then there will be no teachers in my school."

Hearing what Ruan Ruan said, the old man put down his chopsticks. "Are you sure that's what the leader means?" It wasn't that the old man didn't believe what Ruan Ruan said, but the matter of restoring the college entrance examination was too big. If it was true, then all the boys and girls in his family would definitely have to take the exam.

"Grandpa, I'm sure that's what the leader told me today. He also asked if other places could cancel invoices like Tangcheng did, and he asked me about future plans. Then he gave me a piece of land. Grandpa, I think the leaders want to resume economic opening up because of what happened in Tangcheng. But if we resume economic opening up now, we'll need a lot of talent. But the country is short of talent right now, otherwise they wouldn't be trying to poach people from here. So what do we do if we don't have talent? We can only resume the college entrance examination and cultivate talent! Yes, that's it, it must be."

Ruan Ruan gave the old man a long analysis, and at the end, she excitedly slapped her thigh.

Judging from the timing, the leaders were preparing to reinstate the college entrance examination. Ruan Ruan knew this, but she couldn't just tell her family. It just so happened that she had talked to the leaders about this matter today. After analyzing it herself, Ruan Ruan just blurted it out.

After listening to Ruan Ruan's analysis, the people at the dinner table all agreed that it made sense.

"...So, if it's really like you said, when will it be reinstated?" The college entrance examination is something every high school student dreams of. Now, hearing that it might be reinstated, they are excited. Huo Haoshen stammered out the question, then realized something was wrong. This was something that had been analyzed, but it hadn't actually been announced yet.

"I'm not too sure about that. I think if it's not announced this year, it should be announced by next year at the latest. We'll see. If it's true, then I think the professors who have been demoted should receive the notification soon." According to Ruan Ruan's thinking, now that the leaders have this idea, it will be implemented soon, and there should be results in two months at the latest.

"If that's the case, you kids will have to hurry up and review your studies, and get your work sorted out as soon as possible. If the college entrance exam is reinstated next year, you'll all have to take it."

The old man wasn't a conservative person. He didn't say anything like, "Since you already have such a good job, you should focus on working." He considered that nonsense. Just because their jobs were good now and the factory belonged to their family, they should study even harder. Only by improving their knowledge could they better develop the economy.

"Yes, Grandpa." Huo Haoshen and the others said they understood after hearing the old man's words. They were thinking about what other things they had to do and how long it would take to finish them. If all else failed, they would stay there for a while. After all, the workers also stayed there at night, so they could just give them the houses that night.

Zheng Xuyang thought this was a feasible idea. Anyway, his wife and children were staying at her parents' house for the time being, so there was no need for him to travel back and forth alone.

Seeing their enthusiasm, Ruan Ruan couldn't bring herself to say that she didn't want to take the college entrance exam. You see, she had poured her heart and soul into completing her doctoral degree and returned to China. She had only rested for one day before coming here. In the past few years, she had been getting married and having children, and she had been busy proving herself to her superiors so that they could believe in her. She was really a little tired.

If you let her go back to school, it would be the death of her.

Forget it, let's deal with the future later.

Upon learning that the college entrance examination was to be reinstated, the brothers packed their bags and moved into Zhumeng the next day. Just as Zheng Xuyang had expected, they arrived at the pharmaceutical factory early in the morning and held a short meeting with the others. At noon, they notified the factory employees that after get off work in the afternoon, they should not leave but go to the factory manager's office to collect the keys to their houses before leaving.

The factory workers were very happy about the news. They had only registered their information two days ago and thought it would be a while before they were allocated housing, but they didn't expect it to be so quick.

The same thing happened at the furniture factory. When Huo Haoshi and Huo Haojie arrived at the furniture factory, there were already many workers busy at work. The two brothers found Tang Hong and held the first meeting at the furniture factory together. The first announcement they made was about the allocation of rooms for the night, and the second announcement was about pricing the furniture.

If we divide the house today, many people will come to buy furniture. Just as Zheng Xuyang and Huo Haoshi said, even if we pay the employees at cost price, we can still build the reputation of our furniture factory. Therefore, they certainly cannot miss this order.

Fortunately, Zheng Xuyang had made arrangements beforehand. As soon as the furniture factory was built, he arranged for people to make a lot of furniture according to the house layout.

They stayed there for the next week until the pharmaceutical and furniture factories were up and running.

After the houses were allocated, the family members started arriving one after another.

After everything was arranged, Ruan Ruan asked her master to choose an auspicious date for the grand opening. The date was set for August 25th.

On the opening day, the sun shone brightly, but the temperature wasn't too high, and there was a gentle breeze, which was really nice.

That day, representatives from the Ruan, Gu, Lan, Lu, and He families, as well as some people who were on good terms with them, sent congratulatory gifts. Even the leaders sent their bodyguards with gifts. This was a great honor for Ruan Ruan.

With the leaders' high regard for her, Ruan Ruan found it much easier to get things done.

In Yuncheng, after Ruan Ruan analyzed the leader's intentions, she called Commander Gu the next day and asked him to convey her message to Principal Fu and the others, and also asked them to help find some good teachers in order to prevent the school from being left without teachers if they were suddenly transferred back.

After hanging up the phone, Commander Gu still felt it was too dreamlike, so he directly called the old man. After being scolded by the old man, he obediently went to find Principal Fu.

Huo Haocheng and his team returned at the end of August to help the people of Tangcheng complete the first batch of factory reconstruction work.

They returned and rested for two days, and on the third day, they were given an emergency mission.

Well, originally, Deng Yi had approached Gu Jingyan on his first day back home to discuss their marriage. He said that if she agreed, he would have his grandfather propose to the Gu family as soon as he got home.

Sure enough, Huo Haocheng had said he was going to cause some trouble, but now he doesn't even need to lift a finger, and a mission has come his way. This time, it's because a small border country heard about the earthquake in Tangcheng and the heavy losses suffered by China, so they wanted to take advantage of the situation. However, they underestimated China's military strength.
