Li Xianyi turned his gaze to Li Xiaowei again, wanting to see her future plans.
Do you really want to stay in the Palace Museum and deal with antiques for the rest of your life?
"Weiwei! Tell me about your future plans. No matter what you want to do, grandpa will support you."
"Grandpa! I majored in Chinese. I used to want to stay at the Palace Museum, but now I haven't made up my mind."
The place Li Xiaowei least wants to go to now is the Palace Museum.
My mind is full of the scene of my first meeting with Mo Zhexuan.
"Okay! Then tell Grandpa when you've thought it over."
"Okay! Grandpa!"
Finally, I learned about the work situation of Peng Jianhua and his wife.
After giving some instructions, he left Li Zhixin and Guan Xinlan alone.
"Xinlan! As long as you operate your business legally and abide by the law, I will always support you.
After all, many employment opportunities were created for the people, but has the situation changed now? "
"Dad! What's changed?" Guan Xinlan looked nervous.
The reason why he made a lot of money in business in recent years is that if he didn't have the status of the Li family, how could it be possible for everything to go smoothly.
"Nowadays, as more and more cadres' families engage in business, the phenomenon of abusing power for personal gain is emerging one after another.
If this continues, it will lead to more corruption, and the harm it causes will be immeasurable."
“So after discussion, we decided to prohibit cadres’ families from engaging in business.
The relevant departments are currently formulating the system, and it will be officially released next year at the latest."
Li Xianyi couldn't help but feel regretful now. He should have resolutely refused to allow Guan Xinlan to do business.
But in the end, I was convinced, and the reason for persuasion was job creation, which was indeed achieved.
Currently, there are 15 Huimin chain supermarkets in Beijing with a total of more than 1,200 employees.
Not only does it pay a large amount of taxes to the government every year, but it also provides jobs for countless families, which is an invaluable contribution.
If a regulation prohibiting the families of cadres from doing business is issued, it will undoubtedly cut off the financial resources of many cadres.
Countless eyes will be staring at the Li family, and they will even become the target of public criticism.
"Dad! So what do you mean?" Guan Xinlan secretly clicked her tongue, having already guessed the ending.
But I was filled with resentment in my heart, because these fifteen chain supermarkets were gold mines that made a fortune every day!
"I mean to transfer it out as soon as possible." Li Xianyi had no choice. He had to lead by example, otherwise how could he convince others.
"Okay...! I... will transfer it as soon as possible." Guan Xinlan was shocked and finally nodded with gritted teeth.
"I'm sorry for wronging you in this matter. If it were an ordinary cadre, there would be no problem.
But I sit in this position and must set an example for all cadres."
"Dad! We are all family. We share the same fate. We understand," Li Zhixin said quickly.
"Yeah!" Li Xianyi nodded and moved on to the next thing.
"Zhigang! I'm sure you've heard about the large-scale military reduction.
It's set now, there's no room for change.
So you have to make preparations early when you return. If that doesn't work out, you can only transfer to a local job."
"Dad! Could you please tell me the specific figures of disarmament?" Li Zhixin said with a serious face.
This is a major matter that concerns one's future and destiny.
“The specific figures for this disarmament have not yet been determined, but Comrade Xixian is very determined.
It will not be a simple staff reduction like in previous times, but some agencies and troops will be eliminated.
I estimate that at least 500,000 people will be laid off.”
Li Xianyi really admires Comrade Xixian's courage.
This decision is really not that easy to make, but I have to make it.
Because China has reached a point where it has to change.
"I understand." Li Zhigang took a deep breath. This number completely scared him.
In the past, when we received layoff notices, it was just a formality.
Lay off today and find another job tomorrow.
But if we directly cut down the agencies and troops now, I am afraid the fate of countless people will be changed.
"As the military commander of a combat unit, you should not be included in this round of layoffs.
Because your troops are close to the border and are on the front lines of the battle, you cannot let your guard down."
"Dad! If the time comes and I really have to take off my military uniform, then I will have no choice but to obey orders."
"You two are both here today, and I have something I don't know how to say. I'm actually quite conflicted."
Li Xianyi took a sip of tea, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.
"Dad! You say." Li Zhigang and Guan Xinlan looked at each other and said in unison.
"You all should know that Xiaowei has fallen in love with Mo Zhexuan.
As a grandfather, I would never want to see my granddaughter end up with a man who has so many other women."
"Due to confidentiality, I can only tell you that Mo Zhexuan is extremely important to the country.
Therefore, Comrade Xixian hopes that we can consider Mo Zhexuan and try our best to make this happen.
If successful, he would owe the Li family a favor on behalf of the country."
Li Xianyi saw that Li Zhigang and Guan Xinlan's faces were full of anger, and he naturally understood their feelings.
He himself was like this at the beginning, and then said:
"I leave this decision to you and your spouse, and I support whatever you choose.
But I've gotten to know Mo Zhexuan in detail. Aside from being a bit of a playboy, he's truly a man who values friendship and loyalty."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up from the armchair, took his teacup and walked out of the study.
Now he no longer has any psychological burden, and all choices are left to his parents.
"Old Li! I'm telling you, no matter what, I will never let my daughter marry a man with so many women. No one can change this."
A tear flowed from Guan Xinlan's eyes, and she spoke with a sobbing voice.
"Don't worry! Even if you are willing, I won't agree. She is my daughter. How could I not want her to be happy?"
Li Zhigang would rather give up his future than let his daughter jump into the fire pit.
Although the future is important, my daughter's lifelong happiness is more important.
As soon as the two walked out of the study, they saw Li Xiaowei standing at the door with a kettle in her hand, and Li Xianyi standing beside her.
"Weiwei! Did you hear everything?" Guan Xinlan asked hurriedly.
"Yes! I heard everything. Grandpa told me everything." Li Xiaowei had a blank expression on her face, but she couldn't stop the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Daughter! Don't cry! No one will force you as long as you don't want to." Li Zhigang said firmly.
"I don't know now, but I can't forget him," Li Xiaowei said in a crying voice.
