Chapter 427 Reform and Opening Up



Time went from autumn to winter, and soon it was December.

One day in December, Su Qingyun and his colleagues from the design team had just finished carefully observing a test flight and carefully recorded all the details in order to find any problems.

"The application of composite materials in the vertical tail cladding marks a new step forward in our research on composite materials," said Chief Engineer Gu, beaming. "This is great news. I believe our J-8 design will be finalized soon."

Everyone was smiling, and although their eyes were tired, they were all looking forward to that day, so they spared no effort.

"I heard that the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee was just held in Beijing these two days. The leaders proposed that the focus of work should be shifted to modernization construction. Criticism and reflection were carried out on many levels, and many new policies and new ideas were determined. These are all manifestations of our country's progress. I believe that the lives of the people will get better and better." A researcher suddenly spoke with inspiration.

Su Qingyun paused, his pen in awe. The Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee? So soon?

She was so busy with work here that she even forgot such a big thing, the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee. The final two points were: one was to set things right, and the other was... reform and opening up!

By putting things right, those who were persecuted during the turmoil in recent years will have the opportunity to have their innocence redressed and return to their original positions. Reform and opening up are of great significance to China and even to the world. China's economy has taken off since reform and opening up, and the fate of countless people has been changed.

Thinking of these two points, Su Qingyun's heart began to pound. She knew that the opportunity had come.

In Beijing, Su Aimin was holding a newspaper, looking thoughtful.

"You've been reading the newspaper for over an hour. What have you figured out?" Qin Ying teased him with a smile.

I don't know when it started, but Su Aimin developed the habit of reading newspapers. He knew that he had a low level of education, and if he wanted to learn and understand the world, the most convenient and quickest way was to read newspapers. He learned about major national affairs from newspapers, and commented on them from time to time. He learned a lot.

"Wife, come and take a look." Su Aimin called her, "Why do I feel that the news in today's newspaper is a little unusual?"

"What's unusual?" Qin Ying wondered and sat over.

She glanced at the huge headline on the newspaper and read aloud, "The Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee? What kind of meeting is that?"

"Take a closer look." Su Aimin had read the news several times and sensed something unusual in it. "Why do I feel like the country wants to vigorously develop the economy?"

"When has the country stopped developing its economy?" Qin Ying was amused by his words. "If we don't develop the economy, how can our lives get better and better?"

"No, no, no, this time is different." Su Ai shook her head in denial, "It seems like I have to let go of some things this time."

"Let go of some things?" Qin Ying was stunned. "What does this mean?"

Su Aimin hesitated for a moment, then uttered a groundbreaking statement, "I feel like the country is going to allow free trade. In other words, it seems like ordinary people like us can do business now."

Hearing this, Qin Ying was shocked and said quickly, "What are you thinking? Free trade, how can it be so easy?"

Su Aimin held up the newspaper and said, "I've studied it several times. Although there's a lot I don't understand, I'm familiar with business. I have a hunch that this is the information it reveals."

I have to say that Su Aimin's economic acumen is really high. He could see the deep meaning of the news at a glance.

"We can't just rely on intuition." Qin Ying still didn't quite believe it. She thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we pay more attention to any changes in the outside world recently? If the policy is really relaxed, there will definitely be earth-shaking changes."

"Ai Min, I know you've always wanted to do business, but we have to be steady and not take any risks," Qin Ying warned seriously. "It's not just the two of us. Don't forget, our daughter is favored by so many leaders. We can't help her, but we can't hold her back either."

"I know. That's what I'm thinking now."

Su Aimin was still very calm. He had only sensed a hint of this trend, but if he really wanted to do something, he would have to think twice. He was not a reckless or impulsive person. He had always been cautious, and he had a scale in his heart and would not do anything easily.

Anyway, they are in the capital now, and they will be the first to hear about any major events or policy changes in the country. This is the advantage of living in the capital.

"That's good." Qin Ying knew her husband's character and felt relieved.

From that day on, Su Aimin paid special attention to the movements of the outside world. Every day when he went out for a stroll, he would look around until he saw the first person setting up a stall on the roadside. He stood there for a long time before walking up to him.

There was a large piece of plastic cloth with some small items like hairbands and hairpins placed on it, but the styles were more novel and there were more colors and patterns, which were not common in department stores.

There are many people watching, but few people buying. Everyone is jealous and doesn't dare to act rashly. After all, more than ten years ago, this was considered speculation. Although there is a policy breeze now, no one dares to act rashly and everyone is waiting and watching.

Su Aimin squeezed through the crowd, squatted in front of the stall, picked up a hairpin and looked at it carefully.

The stall owner immediately said, "Brother, take a look. Buy one for your wife or daughter. They are very beautiful. These are all from Pengcheng."

"Pengcheng?" Su Aimin was stunned. "Are all these goods imported from Pengcheng?"

"Of course, it's genuine." The stall owner nodded affirmatively.

"Don't the higher-ups care about your business now?" Su Aimin asked deliberately.

The stall owner had a look on his face that said, "You don't understand this." "Big Brother, your information is too outdated. Now that we have relaxed the rules, we are not so strict on these small businesses anymore. Otherwise, how would I dare to set up a stall here?"

"You mean you can now freely run some small businesses?" Su Aimin said, trying to get him to say something. "Are there many people running small businesses like you?"

"That's not much," the stall owner said truthfully. "The policy just came out, and everyone's on edge. They don't dare to act rashly. But in order to make money, there has to be someone who's the first to try it. I can make more money now while there aren't many people doing business. Once everyone realizes this business opportunity, it won't be so easy to do."

The stall owner was quite genuine and told Su Aimin all his thoughts directly.

Su Aimin nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He picked up two small things and said, "I want these two."

"Okay!" The stall owner smiled instantly.

When the other onlookers saw Su Aimin buy the things and leave so naturally, they looked at each other and wondered, "Can he really buy things?"
