Li Shaozhong and his family took a lot of luggage with them on their trip to the south, much of which was packed by Yang Jinping. Most of it was stuff for the children. She figured out what the children needed and what they should take, so she packed a lot.
Ye Shuning couldn't bring the things into the research institute in front of others, so she could only bring them with her openly. Fortunately, her family sent them on the train.
However, Ye Shuning felt that these things were too much, so she asked Li Shaozhong to watch the people outside the box put two unimportant luggage bags into the research institute.
Seeing that the child had been arranged, Li Shaozhong went to get a cup of hot water and then closed the door of the box. The family of three was quite comfortable in the box.
Ye Shuning took out some food when she was packing her luggage just now. Since she had the conditions, she certainly wouldn't let herself feel suffocated.
Ye Shuning broke off two bananas and handed them to Li Shaozhong, "Hubby, eat some bananas. We're the third person in the family now, and the train has been gone for a while, so no one else will come. Let's have something to eat. We used to be so afraid to eat these things when there were always other people at home."
Li Shaozhong peeled the banana and started eating. "Yeah, we can only eat some fruit at night. But we don't dare to eat too much at night. There are too few fruits in the north, so it's better in the south."
Li Shaozhong also likes to eat fruits. He developed the habit of eating fruits with Ye Shuning in Nangang.
Ye Shuning brought out bananas, oranges, lychees, and washed bayberries and cherries. Some were bought in Nangang, while others were grown in the institute. She had previously bought a lot of fruit in Nangang just to make it easier to eat when she returned to the mainland. The couple enjoyed a satisfying and comfortable meal in the private room.
Li Shaozhong picked up a few large, red cherries and said, "Xiao Ning, the cherries in this institute are really big, sour, sweet and delicious. They're really rare. Do you think we can breed and cultivate some in the future?"
Ye Shuning said, "It should be fine. Besides, all the plants in the institute have been optimized, and they are all excellent varieties if taken outside. We can try to cultivate them in the institute first."
For some unknown reason, no one came to Ye Shuning's private room. Li Shaozhong and Ye Shuning were enjoying themselves. To avoid suspicion, Li Shaozhong would occasionally go to the dining car to buy some food. The three of them traveled all the way south and took another bus to reach Zhuzhou.
As soon as they got off the train, they saw Fang Yi coming to pick them up.
Li Shaozhong was very happy to see someone coming to pick us up, "Uncle Fang, how did you know we were arriving today?"
Fang Yi said, "I received a call from your father-in-law and have been waiting here for two days. It's not convenient for you to take care of a child, so I have to come and pick him up. Let's go, I'll drive here and take you to the small courtyard first. I've already packed everything for you."
Ye Shuning also came up to say hello.
Fang Yi looked at the child in Ye Shuning's arms and smiled, "Xiao Ning, your dad has been showing off his grandson to me a lot. This little guy is really beautiful."
After leaving the train station, the group took a bus to Li Shaozhong's former courtyard in Zhuzhou. The courtyard was very clean, and the quilts had been dried in the sun, so it was a perfect place to live.
The weather in the south was already a bit hot at this time. Ye Shuning was afraid that the child would get a sore throat, so she changed the child into lighter clothes and replaced the small cup with a thinner one.
Fang Yi said to Li Shaozhong, "Your father-in-law asked me to find a house for you in Shenzhou. It's just an average house, so you can just make do with it for now. You can apply for a residential plot there and build your own house. Shenzhou is a county, so you can buy land wherever you want and build a house nearby."
Li Shaozhong was very happy. "Thank you so much, Uncle Fang. This saves me a lot of trouble. When the nanny from Nangang comes over and Xiao Ning and I are free, we'll go look at the land. The sooner we decide on it, the sooner we can start construction."
Fang Yi said, "Some people are even more anxious than you. Since you've built a factory, you'll definitely need to recruit workers, and these job opportunities will fall to Shenzhou County and even ZZ City. Many people are eager for these jobs. Every city is facing enormous employment pressure right now, mainly because those educated youth who have returned to the city simply have nowhere to go."
There are only so many job opportunities, and many families have more than one person who has moved to the countryside. Many families have fought tooth and nail over a single job opportunity. Some parents haven't even reached retirement age yet, for the sake of their children, and then have to retire early, leaving them with a meager pension. Some parents, with such a large age gap, give their children jobs, leaving them with no pension at all.
Ye Shuning frowned and said, "Is it really that serious?"
Fang Yi said, "When it comes to survival, no one gives in. If they do, they really won't have anything to eat."
Li Shaozhong shook his head. "It seems that there is no way around it if we don't change."
Fang Yi said, "Allowing you to build a factory is a very good sign. Xiao Ning is investing and building a factory here as a businessman from Nangang, so there are many preferential policies. In a couple of days, we will definitely arrange for you to meet with the leaders of the relevant departments to discuss the investment and construction of the factory. This is a special approval from above, and we will definitely give you the green light all the way."
Ye Shuning and Li Shaozhong had learned a lot from Fang Yi, and they also had a rough idea of the situation. After seeing Fang Yi and his wife off, they started to clean up the house.
They just packed up a bit, because they wouldn't be here for a few days before going to Shenzhou. Although it was close, they still had to live there.
Upon arriving in Zhuzhou, Li Shaozhong visited his former supervisor. Shenzhou is still under the jurisdiction of Zhuzhou, and henceforth foreign investment promotion will fall under the jurisdiction of Li Shaozhong's former unit.
Three days later, Mrs. Liu came to the mainland, and Li Shaozhong went to pick her up in person.
Mrs. Liu was overjoyed to see the child. She lost her husband when she was young and has been a widow ever since, so it was impossible for her to have children of her own in this lifetime. Now, seeing that Li Jingyi was still in his infancy, she loved him from the bottom of her heart.
Mrs. Liu had taken care of children before when she was a nanny in other people's homes in Nangang, so she was very experienced in taking care of children and took good care of Li Jingyi.
Ye Shuning had to breastfeed the child, so the couple usually took care of the child themselves at night, and only asked Mrs. Liu to look after the child during the day.
However, with Mrs. Liu's arrival, Li Shaozhong and his wife felt much more relaxed. At least they had someone to help with cooking and taking care of the children.
A few days later, Fang Yi and several staff members took Li Shaozhong and Ye Shuning to Shenzhou to investigate and see where it would be suitable to build a factory.
Ye Shuning had long planned to build a factory in Shenzhou, so she had a good idea of where to build it. This visit was just a formality. However, she also needed to get a good understanding of the surrounding area. The land she wanted was very large, and since she was the first company to settle here, she naturally had to choose the best location.
She will definitely have to build the road herself in the future, so she has to choose a place with more convenient transportation.
Accompanied by several department personnel, Ye Shuning and Li Shaozhong carefully inspected the situation around Shenzhou County. Ye Shuning felt that it would be best not to occupy the farmland of certain villages, and even if it was occupied, compensation would be provided.
