Chapter 161 Even the best wine needs a bush

There’s a saying that goes, even the best wine needs to be hidden within a bush.

She was also afraid of wasting her products.

Haishi is a big city. Beautiful, attractive and new things always spread here first.

After that, other places followed suit.

After hearing what Wen Tang said, Gu Yanli suddenly thought of something: "If you build a factory in Hai City, will you live here in the future?"

Wen Tang nodded, "Of course!"

"Otherwise, who will be in charge here?"

Gu Yanli immediately stood up and ran out, "I'll go ask the political commissar now."

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

"You're not going to make soap anymore?"

"Go ahead. It won't delay either side. It's not far away."

"And if this place becomes successful in the future, we can just move the one in my hometown here."

Gu Yanli nodded, "Reliable!"

After saying this, the reliable Captain Gu went straight to find his leader.

"To set up a factory?"

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

"We are not allowed to engage in personal finances, don't you know?"

Gu Yanli nodded, "I know!"

"You know that and you still ask me?"

“Not in the name of individuals, but collectively.”

"collective?"

"Which group?"

Gu Yanli pointed at himself and then at the political commissar.

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

The political commissar raised his hand to signal Gu Yanli to stop talking for the time being. "You mean, your wife wants to set up a factory in the name of our army?"

Gu Yanli nodded.

The political commissar just said, "Nonsense!"

"In the future, we will give priority to arranging jobs for our retired soldiers, and also for sisters-in-law who come to look for jobs," said Gu Yanli.

The sternness 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 with a changed expression.

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

Gu Yanli also knew that it would not work in the name of the army.

But if there are counterparts to accept the wives of veterans who follow the army, the leaders above will definitely find a way.

The political commissar put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth. "I'll talk to the higher-ups about this first. It's up to the leaders to decide how to proceed."

"Okay, thank you, Commissar."

The political commissar waved his hand and said, "It would be a good thing if it could be accomplished."

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

For him, this can be said to be a great thing.

From now on, he no longer has to live apart from his wife.

Gu Yanli ran back quickly.

Tell Wen Tang, "The political commissar said that he will bring this up with his superiors and will get back to you in a while."

Wen Tang fiddled with the things in his hands without looking up. "Well, I'm not in a hurry."

Gu Yanli: "..."

"Hurry up, hurry up."

"Um?"

"The army is about efficiency."

"Oh, so that's it!"

"Um!"

What Gu Yanli said was right. The army did emphasize efficiency. The political commissar and his colleagues discussed the matter in the regiment for three days. After they had roughly worked out the feasibility, they reported it to their superiors.

When we reported this matter to our superiors, no one was actually sure what was going on.

No one knows whether to be praised or scolded for being naughty.

And this matter cannot be decided by one person alone.

Finally, the matter was handed over to the highest local leader.

Zhou Zhenghong, the highest local leader, listened to the report from his subordinates and raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Are there any military wives who want to set up a factory to provide jobs for veterans and military wives who have been with the army?"

“This is a good thing!”

"But what kind of factory does she run?"

"But we can't do that in the name of our army!"

"Our army will not get involved in this matter."

"She needs to seek help somewhere."

“Then it will be considered as a local collective.”

"But if you need anything, we can help pass on a message."

The subordinate who reported this matter smiled and shook his head, "It doesn't say what kind of factory it will be, probably because they are afraid that you will give a reply."

"Their group also thinks that we can act as a matchmaker and ask the local authorities to make it easier."

"Okay, then have someone come to my place and let me meet them. I want to hear the details of the situation."

"yes!"

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

Wen Tang also made lipsticks of various colors.

She has given away quite a few of these lipsticks.

Some beauty-loving sisters-in-law in the compound have already used it.

Everyone says it looks good.

But the political commissar did not respond to this matter.

Wen Tang thought that this matter should be left unresolved.

But it is understandable. After all, the army is a serious place. How could we allow others to use the name of the army to do things!

Having given up on this matter in his heart, Wen Tang picked up a few nice-looking colors and put them in his bag, preparing to go to the art troupe again to give these nice-looking ones to Su Xiuxiu.

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

Wen Tang smiled and nodded, "Yes, I'm going to visit a friend."

The orderly said, "Sister-in-law, how about going another day?"

"Um?"

"It's like this. The regiment commander asked me to come and call you. He said he wants to take you and Captain Gu out for a trip."

Team leader?

She had been here for so many days, and at most she had only met Deputy Captain Shen. As for the captain, she didn't even know whether he was round or flat.

Do you suddenly need to take yourself out?

Wen Tang guessed something.

He nodded immediately, "Then I..."

Wen Tang looked down at her clothes. She was going to the city to see Su Xiuxiu. Her clothes and shoes were clean, and there didn't seem to be anything inappropriate about them. "Let's go!"

Then she followed the orderly downstairs.

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

Seeing Gu Yanli, Wen Tang trotted over.

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

Then a serious-looking man in his forties got out from the passenger seat.

However, the other person's serious expression only lasted until he got off the car. After he stood firmly on his feet, the corners of his mouth raised.

Gu Yanli introduced the two parties, "Captain, this is my wife, Wen Tang."

"Wen Tang, this is our leader."

"Hello, Captain!" Wen Tang stretched out his hands and shook hands politely with the other party.

Although the other party had a serious look, his tone was very gentle, "Get in the car!"

Then, Gu Yanli and Wen Tang sat in the back seat, and Chen Kang, the regiment leader, sat in the co-pilot seat.

They were a young couple, so it wouldn't be appropriate for him to sit with anyone else, so he took the co-pilot seat early.

The car soon arrived at the military headquarters.

After passing through layers of checkpoints, Wen Tang and Gu Yanli followed Chen Kang and arrived at an office.

The guide knocked on the office door.

"Enter!"

The other party went in, and Wen Tang and the others were still waiting outside.

But after a while, the man came out and said, "Come in, three of you."

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

Zhou Zhenghong, with slightly graying temples, sat behind his desk. He only raised his head when someone approached him.
