Chapter 523 A Friend from Moscow
Wu Yucheng is in his thirties. He finally got married and cherishes his wife like the apple of his eye.
Especially after learning that Sheng Yunfei was pregnant, he doted on her even more, treating her like a precious gem and not letting her do anything all day long.
Even a sneeze from Sheng Yunfei would scare him half to death, and he would rush to the hospital.
Finally, Sheng Yunfei got really angry and kicked Wu Yucheng out the door, telling him to get as far away as possible and stop bothering her at home.
After hearing this, Sheng Xiping could only shake his head. His brother-in-law was a real character, still not serious even in his thirties.
"We've hired two nannies for the family, and the company has arranged two assistants and a driver. There shouldn't be any problems, right?"
Before Wu Yucheng left, he had already made all the necessary arrangements. Otherwise, how could he feel at ease?
“Okay, then you should book your tickets too, and we’ll go to Heihe together.” Sheng Xiping nodded.
Wu Yucheng really has a lot to say to Lao Wu. Since everything has been arranged, what else is there to say? Let's go.
So the two of them flew to Harbin, stayed there for a few days, and met with leaders from many departments in Heilongjiang Province.
Finally, some time ago, the construction project of the Beihei Railway was included in the 1986 basic construction plan, and construction began on July 15.
It is said that Chen Jiayong and his gang have committed many crimes and have murder cases on their hands.
Tengyue Company is a transportation company jointly run by the Transportation Bureau and the Public Security Bureau, and it uses the same trucks that it swapped with the trucks from the other side.
As for transportation companies, do they still worry about not having work these days? They can make just as much money driving long distances.
During the summer, Sun Jinggang and his team traded with the Russians while building houses, and now the family quarters are complete.
After they were captured in Heihe, some people in Harbin tried to pull strings to get them released.
These days, everyone is coming back one after another, and some people have even brought their wives over. It's great that they can balance work and life, and the place is getting more and more lively.
They were told that someone from the capital had taken care of the matter and that it must be dealt with severely. Upon hearing this, the other party dared not make any further moves and simply ignored it.
Actually, Heihe used to have a railway.
News of Sheng Xiping's arrival in Heihe quickly reached the other side of the river.
When the Japanese occupied Northeast China, in order to plunder the forest resources of northern Heilongjiang Province, they started construction of the Beihei Railway in 1934, which was completed and opened to traffic in 1935.
Now that the railway is built, what will the transportation company rely on to make money?
Of course, as long as these people don't provoke him, they can do whatever they want; Sheng Xiping doesn't have that much free time to care.
Ordinary people desperately want a better life, but honestly farming doesn't bring in any money.
In order to develop Sino-Soviet trade, develop the border areas, and revitalize Heihe, the local government submitted requests to the province four times starting in 1976 to repair the Beihei Railway.
While we were at it, we also inquired about Chen Jiayong and the others.
There's no need for long-distance travel; you just need to transport the goods from the port to the train station.
Sheng Xiping didn't bother to explain further. With the railway repaired, it would be much easier for their company to move goods in and out, saving them a lot of costs.
The city was overjoyed when it heard the news, and held a grand ceremony to express its gratitude and to commend the leaders.
A while ago, ice flakes caused the Heilongjiang River to freeze over, making it impossible for boats to pass, so border trade between the two countries was suspended for a period of time.
Sheng Xiping had nothing to say about this.
When Sheng Xiping arrived in Heihe, upon hearing that the city was going to build a railway, he immediately expressed his willingness to donate 100,000 yuan for the construction of the Beihei Railway.
Sheng Xiping had said before that he would buy the vacant land behind the warehouse and build houses to create a residential area for family members.
In the spring of 1949, in order to transport the timber that the Japanese had not yet taken to the interior to support the War of Liberation, the province temporarily repaired the Beihei Railway.
When Sheng Xiping and his group arrived in Heihe, it was already December 25th, less than a week before the start of this year's border trade.
After the timber was transported, it was dismantled.
There are always some people who are willing to take risks and try to get rich through crooked means.
At first, Chen Jiayong and his gang were stubborn, but they were eventually broken down one by one by the police and confessed a lot of things.
Anyone who dares to mess with him without thinking will be in trouble. Chen Jiayong and his ilk are prime examples of what happens to them.
Sun Jinggang, Wang Dongcheng, and others also took the opportunity to go home and visit their relatives.
And you know what? The transportation company has been doing incredibly well for the past six months.
On December 29th, Ivanov, Andrei, and others came and found Sheng Xiping.
In no time, Tengyue Company became famous in Heihe, and everyone in the city knew about it.
In 1946, when the Russian army withdrew from Northeast China, they dismantled the Beihei Railway, blew up the bridges, and took away the tracks, locomotives, vehicles, and related equipment as spoils of war.
"Sheng, it's been so long, my friend. I've missed you so much."
Of course, some people don't quite understand why Sheng Xiping wanted to donate money.
The ringleaders have already been sentenced to eat peanuts, and the rest have been sentenced to at least five years, some to more than ten years, and some even to life imprisonment. Anyway, this group is finished.
Society is in a period of change, and people are restless.
In a few years, when all the families' children are born one after another, it will be even more lively.
Currently, the city is raising funds to prepare for the construction of a railway and a train station.
Given the current situation, unless the higher authorities intensify their crackdown, for every Chen Jiayong who goes to jail, there will be Song Jiayong and Wang Jiayong as well.
Several large, bear-like men approached Sheng Xiping one by one to hug and greet him.
"I've missed you all too, Ivan. I thought we wouldn't be able to meet until the border trade reopened, but I didn't expect you to meet so soon."
