Now that the bitterness is over, it’s time to enjoy something sweet.
Xu Gang pondered for a long time, and finally put down the chess piece in the corner, "Brother, can you go out now? Manman said that he would take us abroad for a tour."
"I'm afraid I can't go abroad. Even though I'm retired, I still have a confidentiality period. But I can still travel around China or Hong Kong."
Xu Lei was still somewhat interested in traveling. He had been to many places during the war, but what was there to see in a garrison? It was either the wilderness or the wild mountains.
Now that the country is developing better and better, Haishi is completely different from when he first left home. He is even more curious about the changes in other places.
In the past two years, his wife has been traveling around with her younger brothers and sisters-in-law, and he has long been envious of her. He also wants to see with his own eyes the mountains and rivers of his motherland where he has struggled for most of his life.
After receiving a positive response, Xu Manman immediately began to prepare the itinerary for the sunset tour group.
Maybe she had been idle on the island for too long, so she always wanted to find something to do to pass the time, so she was very efficient in doing things.
As soon as the National Day was over, he used a private plane to take the Xu family's sunset travel group to Fujian Province.
After seeing some mountains and rivers, we rented a yard on Yuanshazhou.
Xu Lei looked at the bay across the strait, his eyes sparkling, "One day, it will come back." Just like Hong Kong and Macau.
Xu Manman sat aside, holding her chin and saying nothing. When she left in her previous life, Taiwan was surrounded several times, but she didn't know when it would be truly recovered.
But she thought that day would not be too far away. Her uncle was not yet 70 years old. If he took good care of himself, he could live to be a hundred years old. It was not impossible to wait until that day.
Originally, Xu Manman planned to rest on the island for a month. The temperature here is suitable. At the end of October, the temperature is still quite high during the day. A long-sleeved autumn outfit is enough, and a coat can also be added at night to withstand it.
Moreover, the air at the seaside is humid, which makes people in Haishi who are used to living at the mouth of the Yangtze River more comfortable than in the dry Beijing.
During the Kuomintang rule, many dignitaries lived in Yuanshazhou, so the island's infrastructure is very good and the scenery is beautiful.
But after living there for a few days, Xu Lei no longer felt the novelty. He had been stationed on the island for more than ten years. Although the geographical location of Yuanzhou Island was different, it was still an island. Aren't there the same things after all?
In order to improve the public experience, Xu Manman adjusted the plan in time and continued to head south with the sunset tour group.
After coming to Guangdong Province and taking them to experience authentic Chaoshan cuisine, we came to the Special Administrative Region.
When they arrived in the Special Administrative Region, Xu Manman did not take them to the mountains immediately. Instead, she booked a presidential suite in a city hotel, allowing them to experience the urban life at the forefront of reform for a few days.
Looking at the tall buildings, the hustle and bustle of traffic, and the crowds of people outside the window, Xu Lei couldn't help but sigh at the rapid changes since the opening.
In addition to staying in the hotel to enjoy various projects, Xu Manman also took them to the industrial park that Caleb had originally identified.
Compared to when Xu Manman first came here, this large remote area has become a prosperous commercial district radiating outward from the industrial area.
The higher-ups had informed them in advance, so the person in charge of the industrial zone came personally to receive them.
"Our industrial park is mainly composed of high-tech electronics factories. Our products include game consoles, computers and various electrical appliances. They are all independent brands under MJ. As long as you are an employee in the industrial park, you will be allocated a dormitory.
There are libraries, shopping malls, and hospitals in the surrounding area, and the infrastructure is complete. We have also applied to the authorities for the Public Security Bureau and Fire Department to move in to further ensure the security and fire protection of the industrial zone.
According to statistics from the third quarter, the entire industrial zone has already provided employment for nearly 100,000 people. If you add the surrounding business districts and upstream and downstream suppliers and distributors, this number could be tripled."
Xu Lei visited the place very seriously and nodded repeatedly to the introduction given by the person in charge.
Xu Gang, on the other hand, was more interested in various imported high-tech machine tools. If he hadn't been concerned about the large number of people around him, he would have been eager to lie down on them and study them.
Seeing his father like this, Xu Manman knew that his occupational disease had come back, so he leaned over and whispered, "Shall I ask someone to help you with the blueprints?"
Xu Gang's eyes lit up when he heard this, but soon fell silent again. He shook his head and said, "Forget it. This is an industry secret and cannot be leaked out casually." Although he is retired, his professional ethics are still there.
"Just look at it yourself. It won't be a problem if you don't take it out."
Hearing his daughter say this, Xu Gang nodded reluctantly, his heart filled with joy.
