The little one, who had eaten several meals at the market, had a round belly. He was already wearing a lot of clothes, and he waddled around like a fat penguin. Not far from the market, he became listless and could barely open his eyes.
They came excitedly, but Qin Qinghuai carried them back home in the second half.
She had a great time today, and the little one isn't unhappy about being confined to the house for the next few days. She even happily shared her egg-themed literature with her brothers, and the egg became a hot topic hanging in the house for quite some time.
A steamed bun made with one egg, an egg custard made with three eggs, braised pork with twenty eggs, three milk candies for one egg, an orange for ten eggs, a pancake for three eggs, a frozen pear for several eggs...
Although she's a bit obsessed, the effect isn't bad. She still can't remember the price of things, but if something can be measured in eggs, her mind works faster than anyone else's.
Jian Dan felt that this line of thinking was not quite right, but after trying to persuade him for several days, it was no use. On the contrary, it only made the little brat's rebellious nature harder and harder, so she simply gave up.
With spring in full bloom, Qin Qinghuai kept his word and really sent his little one to the military kindergarten.
It wasn't that he was willing or unwilling to part with it, but rather that he was so busy that he barely had time to go home.
After the power station project was approved, spring had already arrived, so the news was no secret and was circulated in all sorts of ways, mostly by people just wanting to see what would happen.
After all, this place has been known for its poverty for many years, otherwise it wouldn't have been hampered by the logistics of the capital for so long. The most coveted thing in recent years is the donation from the "kind-hearted person" a few years ago. It is thanks to this "donation" that the border area has been able to carry out various big projects in recent years. Of course, this is no secret. People with discerning eyes are secretly guessing how much that donation was, that it allowed them to "go wild" for several years and still dare to covet such a large project as the power station.
Outsiders watch the spectacle, enjoy the joke, and some might even try to trip them up. But those on the inside don't have the extra time or energy to care about what outsiders think. Once the formalities are completed, the actual construction is the most time-consuming, technically demanding, and difficult part.
Not only Qin Qinghuai, the political commissar who took the lead and represented the border military region, was busy, but Lin Zhengde and Cheng Jin were even busier. After all, this was, in the end, an asset and industry of the military region. Although the government provided policy support, they still had to rely on themselves. And to be honest, they wouldn't feel comfortable handing over such a project to outsiders.
Furthermore, although construction has begun, it is only the beginning and requires further research, discussion, and confirmation. Most of the work requires professional personnel, but the few decision-makers cannot simply ignore everything.
Qin Qinghuai absorbed relevant knowledge like a sponge in the space at night. He even tried his best to share some advanced technologies with professionals, hoping to make the project better and better.
As for Cheng Chao, from the moment this project was proposed, he began traveling all over the country again. This time, his search for people was legitimate and aboveboard. He simply went to various universities and retrieved the information of those with real talent. He transferred the relevant personnel to those who needed it, and for those who had already been transferred to lower levels, he went openly with the documents. Regardless of whether they were "stinking intellectuals" or not, as long as the official documents were displayed, it was clear that the person was needed for the power plant construction. When the military region came to request personnel, it was much smoother than before.
The same actions were taken as before. The situation was unclear before, and all these actions were done in secret, for fear of being discovered and to avoid any complications.
This time, it's truly aboveboard and aboveboard.
Even the old folks who used to just stroll around the greenhouses were 'forced' to get busy. It's easier to deal with the devil than with his underlings. Every now and then, the old man would take his guards to the site for a quick look. With a stern face and his epaulets showing, he could see through anyone, big or small. Those lawless underlings, including the new commune secretary, would all be silenced.
It was treated like a guardian beast by a group of children, and one or two of them were enjoying it immensely.
Knowing that he would be even busier taking care of things at home, Qin Qinghuai, though doting on his daughter, also knew that as children grow up, their destructive and annoying abilities change every day. If he continued to let her roam freely at home, given Jian Dan's current level of patience and tolerance, it was only a matter of time before she would get a beating nine times in three days.
For the sake of the girl, they decisively sent her to kindergarten. The distance would allow the mother and daughter to miss each other a little after not seeing each other for a day, and if they had a disagreement, they could have some time to cool off.
Jian Dan also breathed a huge sigh of relief. She never thought she was the type to take care of children. In the past two years, it was only because the little brat's unruly personality hadn't fully manifested that she had already gotten a beating.
However, she wasn't idle either.
The power station is a key project, and the expansion and relocation here are also underway. However, this is actually a matter for the military region, not a military secret, and it involves the families and logistics. So, it's not easy for the political commissar's family to stay out of it.
So, as soon as their little one started kindergarten, the couple became incredibly busy and disappeared almost instantly.
Qin Qinghuai was constantly in meetings at the county party committee, at the military base, and with various experts. He was also surveying sites and checking materials. He was so busy he was practically running around like crazy.
Jian Dan's situation is much better, since the project has already started. Wei Kangzhan and a few other veterans are in charge, and Commander Lin is also overseeing things. She mainly handles miscellaneous tasks or manages the emotions of the family members; at most, she's a supervisor.
Most of the workers were veterans, and some were farmers who had recently moved here. They cherished the opportunity to earn money by doing odd jobs in addition to farming. Some were building houses, some were leveling the ground, some were cooking, some were carrying bricks, some were digging soil, and some were making adobe bricks. The scene was very busy and lively.
