After leaving Song Yan's house, Gao Guohua said, "How dare Director Sun manipulate a woman like that?"

Aunt Ji's task is complete; he can go home now.

As a result, a large crowd was seen blocking the entrance to their neighborhood office.

Someone shouted, "Aunt Ji is back!"

Everyone crowded around. They all talked at once, creating a noisy commotion. But Aunt Ji understood; they were asking her to put in a good word.

"What do you mean? Don't you know how this fell apart?"

"Why are you all crowding around me? Go find whoever you want!" Aunt Ji said.

Director Sun stepped forward. "Aunt Ji, this is something that involves negotiating terms."

"They wouldn't just walk away like that! I think they're not very sincere. I'm thinking you should go and try to persuade them!"

Aunt Ji's pent-up anger from yesterday suddenly flared up. "Negotiations? Did you even allow anyone to negotiate?"

You immediately suggested that they take in all the educated youth from our neighborhood.

"Count for yourselves how many people have returned from our neighborhood right now?" Aunt Ji pointed to the people surrounding her.

"Would large state-owned enterprises suddenly need so many people? If they are short of staff, wouldn't they take care of the children of educated youth who were sent to the countryside?"

You expect an individual to do something that even a large state-owned factory can't handle?

He also said that people shouldn't engage in capitalist exploitation, and shouldn't fire anyone they don't like!

What kind of era are we living in? He's still labeling people. I won't even name whose family, but his son was also a sent-down youth; do you think he'll work properly when he comes back?

Those kinds of people are unacceptable, yet you're telling them they absolutely must have him and can't be fired. Are they living under someone else's thumb?!

Are they stupid? They'll support you even if you don't work!

You're still blaming them for turning around and leaving!

Are you trying to kill them?

Why did they choose our street when there are so many other streets? I begged them on purpose.

"I'm too ashamed to ask anyone for help. Whoever has the nerve can go!" Aunt Ji had never embarrassed Director Sun to his face before. Today, she was truly furious.

Director Sun's face turned bright red. If anyone else dared to speak to him like that, he would have snapped back. But this was Aunt Sun; he didn't dare.

Director Sun immediately felt extremely embarrassed. "Wasn't I just thinking of everyone's best interests?"

"Yes, Director Sun is right. He is selfless and always thinks of everyone. You can just go to Director Sun!" Aunt Ji really wanted to slam her hand on the table and say, "I quit! Let whoever wants to do it do it!"

But the thought of her daughter needing her financial support made her unable to stand up for herself.

But she wasn't afraid; Director Sun wouldn't dare to make things difficult for her.

After feeding the child in the afternoon, Song Yan went to find Xiao Hu.

When Xiao Hu heard his second sister-in-law recount what had happened, he grinned happily.

Second sister-in-law is really good; her guess was spot on.

If the other party is sincere, Song Yan should also be sincere, then it will be settled.

So tomorrow, she and Xiaohu will visit Director Gao Guohua.

Moreover, they also need factory space, and Gao Guohua needs to finalize this agreement.

Gao Guohua, whom they had their eyes on, had already taken action.

He knew exactly what Aunt Ji was doing at their neighborhood office. Because he paid special attention to it!

Gao Guohua arrived at the rubber factory that afternoon.

Director Sun and the rubber factory reached an agreement on leasing the equipment.

Director Sun signed the lease agreement, while Chang Xiaohu and Song Yan paid the money.

But it hasn't been signed yet.

It doesn't matter who you rent this house to.

The rubber factory's management had no idea what had happened. In reality, they were paying money no matter who they rented to.

However, the problem is that this matter was initiated by a certain leader.

Changing the boss without the leader's approval is not a good idea.

The rubber factory leaders told Gao Guohua they would look into it, but at the same time implied that they needed to consult their superiors.

Gao Guohua understood immediately; it was no big deal. Aunt Ji had spent the night at her brother's house yesterday.

Gao Guohua chuckled and said that it was only right, and that the person should go back and wait for news.

The result of the consultation with the leader came quickly.

The leader said that I brought this up because I wanted to make this happen.

These educated youth suffered a lot in the countryside, and we should do our best to resettle them when they return.

Let whoever can handle this matter do it.

Our goal is simply to do this well.

At the same time, we must protect the interests of educated youth, but we must not bully them personally.

It's a win-win situation for everyone.

How did this come to be called bullying?

The leaders of the rubber factory weren't stupid; they immediately went to inquire about the matter.

Aunt Ma didn't try to hide it; she just asked around on the street and everyone knew.

The rubber factory was angry too.

The factory and land belong to us, but you want to swallow all the benefits.

If Director Sun and Gao Guohua offered the same terms, the rubber factory would choose Gao Guohua.

Besides, Director Sun has angered everyone and driven them away. How can he still rent a factory? And does he even have the money to rent one?

The next day, Song Yan took Chang Xiaohu to Gao Guohua's door.

This time, they will explain the detailed terms based on the specific circumstances.

Gao Guohua's main goal was to give these returning educated youth something to do, but at the same time, it had to be something that Chang Xiaohu could afford.

Chang Xiaohu was willing to cooperate.

At first glance, their cooperation seems promising.

Song Yan said he would go back and compile the detailed terms into a document, and then they would sign the agreement.

Song Yan delayed for a few days to wait for Wei Aiguo to return.

Whether this matter is being handled under the names of the four companies, or whether it's just a business deal between him and Xiaohu, needs to be clarified.
