Although Chen Shulan leaked the pharmaceutical factory's secrets, she insisted that it was unintentional and that the situation was not very serious. Therefore, she did not bear much criminal responsibility.
Han Yixian didn't interfere much, as long as Chen Shulan received the punishment she deserved. Besides, Chen Shulan cared about her reputation; no matter what sentence she received, her reputation was ruined.
In the end, Chen Shulan was sentenced to two years of forced labor. After the verdict, she was directly sent to a labor camp for reform through labor.
As for the people associated with Chen Shulan, they were all sent by the Chen family, and in the end, they were all persuaded to leave the factory. This was to save face for the Chen family; being persuaded to resign was much better than being fired. At least it wouldn't leave too many traces on their records.
Zhou Zhengye felt a sense of relief when he learned that Chen Shulan had been sentenced to two years of labor reform.
He had already discovered that Wang Guixiang's visit to Qianyuan County was also related to Chen Shulan. Because of Chen Shulan's selfishness, his peaceful life was gone forever.
At first, Wang Guixiang had money and coupons, so she didn't hesitate to buy things. She would go to state-run restaurants or grocery stores to buy whatever she wanted to eat.
When she ran out of money, she asked Zhou Zhengye for more. Of course, Zhou Zhengye would give her some, but only half of what she had before.
This was certainly not enough for Wang Guixiang, but Zhou Zhengye did not give her any more.
Zhou Zhengye also had an explanation: the cost of living in Qianyuan County is different from that in Kyoto, and since Wang Guixiang lives with him, her expenses should naturally be lower.
Zhou Zhengye intended to use this method to force Wang Guixiang to leave Qianyuan County and return to Kyoto.
Wang Guixiang often cried to her mother, but her mother couldn't do much because they lived too far apart. She also called Zhou Zhengye, who, while not always going along with her, didn't go too far either.
What Zhou Zhengye said made a lot of sense, leaving Wang's mother unable to refute it and only able to advise her daughter. She also secretly sent her daughter some money.
When Wang's mother learned about the contents of the letter her daughter had received last time, she initially didn't believe it at all. However, her daughter kept expressing her suspicions, which made Wang's mother wonder if Zhou Zhengye and He Yuhan were really having an affair.
But is that even possible? How could Han Yixian tolerate that? How could he possibly be brothers with Zhou Zhengye? The Han family would also never tolerate such a daughter-in-law.
Regardless of whether her son-in-law had something going on with He Yuhan, Wang's mother felt that her son-in-law should be brought back to the capital, otherwise her daughter would go crazy.
The Queen Mother discussed the matter with her husband and ultimately decided that they wouldn't consult Zhou Zhengye first, but would instead act unilaterally and transfer him back to the capital. Zhou Zhengye would then be obliged to obey the transfer order and return to the capital, and their daughter would automatically follow.
Zhou Zhengye was unaware that someone was plotting against him; he was full of energy and preparing to lead the Qianyuan County Machinery Factory to great success.
Compared to Zhou Zhengye's boundless enthusiasm, Han Yixian had already sensed the disharmony within the pharmaceutical factory.
Where there are people, there are conflicts. As the pharmaceutical factory prospered, it attracted a lot of attention, which in turn drew dissenting voices. Some people began to fight for the interests of their families.
This is exactly what Han Yixian didn't want to see. If things continue like this, infighting will inevitably begin in the factory.
The Chen family also began to pay attention to the pharmaceutical factory because of the information provided by Chen Shulan. Although the people who were with Chen Shulan were persuaded to leave, they could simply send others instead.
Some people also began to criticize Han Yixian's management style. Han Yixian clearly felt that his job was not so easy anymore. Moreover, some people began to outwardly comply but inwardly resist.
Han Yixian could easily have suppressed these people and made them obedient. But he didn't. Dealing with them would only lead to others. The situation was becoming increasingly tense; it was best not to make a scene.
Besides, Han Yixian wasn't afraid of anything; if he couldn't stay any longer, he would just leave.
Do these people really think the pharmaceutical factory can still thrive without his and his wife's technical support? They're dreaming.
Han Yixian, having decided to leave, also began making plans for those around him. After he left the pharmaceutical factory, Yuan Qihua would definitely leave as well. And then there was Liu Gang; he couldn't possibly let Liu Gang go to the countryside with him.
Therefore, Han Yixian made arrangements for Liu Gang first, preparing to arrange a job for him in his hometown.
Liu Gang is now well-educated, experienced in his work, and skilled in many areas, making him capable of handling a wide range of jobs.
Han Yi first spoke with Liu Gang. When Liu Gang heard that Brother Xian wanted him to leave, his eyes turned red, and he firmly disagreed.
Han Yixian sighed and said, "Gangzi, all good things must come to an end. You've been by my side for so many years, we're brothers."
The situation is getting increasingly tense, and I might take my family to live in seclusion in the countryside. You're still young, and it's time for you to get married. If you come with me to the countryside, it will be a waste of your time.
Didn't you say your mother found you a partner back in your hometown? You haven't been able to take care of your parents all these years, it's time to go back and get married.
We brothers will have a chance to meet again in the future.
Liu Gang knew that Brother Xian was doing it for his own good, and although he was very reluctant, he still followed Han Yixian's arrangement.
Han Yi first asked Liu Gang what he thought, and then arranged a job for him that was relatively close to home.
He Yuhan was very reluctant to see Liu Gang go back to his hometown, and prepared a lot of things for him.
He Yuhan, heavily pregnant, couldn't see Liu Gang off. Before he left home, she instructed him, "Write after you've settled in, so we can rest assured. Write often. Don't forget to write if you encounter any difficulties or need anything. Don't become distant from us after you leave."
