"Wife!" Wei Baichuan rushed over to help his wife when he saw her laughing so hard she was bent over.
"It's okay, don't worry, that person was hilarious." Su Ti couldn't help but laugh whenever she thought about the tone of that person's voice and his expression.
"Beijing has its downsides too, there are too many idiots." Seeing his wife like this, Wei Baichuan felt that those people hadn't hit her hard enough.
"That person isn't stupid. If he were, he wouldn't have been so easy to talk to in the movie theater."
"He can control his impulses. That kind of person isn't brainless. He also has the ability to be both firm and flexible. Could you do that?"
Men have guts, and even if Wei Baichuan couldn't beat him, he definitely wouldn't kneel down and beg for mercy.
But the person from before was able to immediately beg for mercy after Wei Baichuan revealed his identity.
In Suti's view, this is not a lack of backbone, but a clear understanding of life.
“Indeed, he can be flexible and adaptable.” Wei Baichuan agreed with his wife. He really couldn’t learn that; there was so much he needed to learn.
Suti glanced at her man. That was one of the good things about him; he would listen attentively to what others had to say.
He will adopt the parts he thinks are correct.
"Baichuan, were you asking that person those questions because you wanted to... speculate?" Su Ti and Wei Baichuan left the alley.
This area is full of family housing. During the day, people go to work or school, and you can't see a single person even if you walk a long way.
“Honey, didn’t you say that the country won’t stay like this forever, and that we just need to wait for the right opportunity? If I really go to work at the Ministry of Transport, I don’t want to waste my time like this.”
“I know that speculation and profiteering are not allowed now, but Beijing is different from other places. There must be people behind the black market, and they are not simple people. Generally, nothing will happen.”
“I don’t want to compete with others for territory, but I think we can leverage the advantages of the location to develop the surrounding areas.”
"I have some ideas in mind, but I'll wait until the work is arranged before discussing anything else." He just felt that the way the supply and marketing cooperative handled the food earlier had given him a lot of inspiration.
He hadn't really figured out what to do yet.
As that person just said, even the goods from the supply and marketing cooperatives end up on the black market. The one thing Beijing has in abundance is the supply of goods.
If the black market can't handle the demand in Beijing, it will definitely try to expand to other places. It's obvious that the people behind it are not only highly capable, but also incredibly wealthy.
The Li family focused more on military and political affairs, and he wasn't interested in those things. But if he wanted to provide for his wife, he had to do what he was good at.
Money makes the world go round; I've got the status, now all I lack is money.
Moreover, he knew in his heart that with the Li family behind him, this path would be easier for him, and most people wouldn't dare to touch him.
“Okay, I’ll support you no matter what you do.” Suti knew he had a clear conscience.
"Let's go home first." Wei Baichuan squeezed his wife's hand. They'd been out for half a day; it was time to go back for lunch.
Suti also felt hungry, so he and Wei Baichuan took the tram back to the military compound.
Unbeknownst to them, someone at the Ministry of Development and Reform, not far from the family dormitory, was in a very awkward situation.
"Comrade Qi, it's not that we're being unreasonable, it's just that you violated departmental rules, and there's nothing I can do about it."
The Minister of Reform had been hiding in his office for half a day, but unexpectedly, this person actually waited for him all morning.
"When did I violate the rules? I told you about my leave request, and I wrote the leave slip."
Qi Bowen looked at the person in front of him who usually didn't dare to breathe loudly in his presence, but now he dared to act all high and mighty.
"Comrade Qi, please don't make things difficult for me. This isn't something I can decide." Mentioning this only made the Minister of Reform even more furious.
He's the only minister who's had such a frustrating job. When Qi Bowen first arrived, he even had to ask for leave according to the rules when he had something to do.
Later, he found it troublesome and simply asked him to write a stack of stamped leave slips, saying he could write his own leave slips if he wanted to.
They didn't care whether he agreed or not. They had never seen an ordinary clerk work like this before. He was angry but dared not speak out.
So many things have happened to the Li family this time. Qi Bowen had just left when Marshal Li sent someone to say that Qi Bowen's job was being relieved and that it should be given to someone who needed it.
He wasn't sure if he was just angry, and if they made up later, he'd be in trouble.
"You're the minister, but who has the final say? Do you think you can look down on me just because I had a fight with my grandfather?"
Qi Bowen understood everything about his dawdling.
"Comrade Qi, this matter was initiated by the old marshal. Why don't you go and plead with him on my behalf?"
In the end, the Minister of Reform had no choice but to tell the truth, and it was obvious to everyone why.
"Hmph, you bully the weak and fear the strong. Why didn't you dare talk to me like this before?" If Qi Bowen had dared to go to his grandfather, he wouldn't be wasting his time here with him.
"You said it yourself, that was in the past." The Minister of Reform was annoyed by his sarcastic remarks.
He said that was in the past. Doesn't he know what he's like now?
"You..." Qi Bowen pointed at the man's nose, wanting to curse. It was truly a case of a tiger fallen into the plains being bullied by dogs; anyone could ride roughshod over him.
"Exit them." The minister of reform had already offended them, so he didn't care anymore.
Given the current situation, once he reconciles with the old marshal, he will definitely be the first to suffer.
He might as well take this opportunity to vent his anger; he'd been holding it in for so many years, he prayed silently in his heart.
I hope God will have mercy and that this kind of person should never be allowed to rise again.
Only after Qi Bowen was forcibly removed from the Reform Department did many of the staff members dare to show their faces.
The person who was most at a loss about how to face Qi Bowen was definitely Liu Hao. They used to be in cahoots, and he had been doing quite well in the Reform Department.
Now that Qi Bowen is in trouble, he's finding it hard to get along in his department. He works diligently every day, but people are still picking on him.
Of course he hoped Qi Bowen would recover, but then he remembered what his parents had said: now not only was Qi Bowen in trouble, but the old marshal was even willing to abandon his own daughter.
Others may not know, but everyone in the compound knows that they're in trouble this time.
Besides, now that the real one has returned, even if Qi Bowen has the ability to go back to the Li family, his status will be different.
His parents repeatedly told him that he was not allowed to have any further involvement with Qi Bowen.
Fortunately, Qi Bowen had disappeared during this time, and he hadn't seen him since.
He suddenly came to the department and made a scene today, and I don't know what to do.
"Alright, everyone get back to work." Seeing the minister's particularly grim expression, the heads of each department hurriedly called their subordinates back to work.
What did their department do to deserve this? They brought back such a troublesome person.
