Qin Zongye was also quite touched by what Yan Xiheng said. "Now some departments know that we have a cooperative relationship. If one company takes action, almost all of them will take action, and they are big moves. People have to be cautious."
Li Shaozhong sat next to Ye Shuning and drank tea, saying, "The chemical fiber factory is now completely on track. With Engineer Liu and Engineer Zhang here, there's absolutely no problem. I'll be going to Haizhou in a few days, so I'll have to stay for a while.
Because the child is still too young, Xiao Ning and the child won't go with me. "After I leave, please worry about what's going on here."
Yan Xiheng knew about this a long time ago. "Don't worry, we're here. We feel more at ease with Xiao Ning here. Any technical problems can be handled promptly. We can keep in touch at any time. Just come back if you need us."
Qin Zongye said, "Have you arranged a place to live in Haizhou? If you don't have a place to live, you can stay with me. I bought a house in Haizhou."
Li Shaozhong certainly wouldn't go live with Qin Zongye. "The Haizhou Automobile Factory has arranged a dormitory for me. And I'm planning to buy a house this time. Xiao Ning likes the small Western-style houses in Haizhou and asked me to buy two. Houses are very cheap now, so it's definitely worth buying one."
Ye Shuning said, "Small Western-style houses like those in Haizhou are hard to come by these days. Even if you keep them, they'll appreciate in value in the future, making them a worthwhile investment. If you have some spare cash, you can buy one or two. Buying a house in a major inland city and waiting for it to appreciate in value will definitely make you a lot of money."
Although Ye Shuning had already bought a courtyard house in Kyoto, she planned to buy a few more in the future. Each of her four children needed at least one.
Yan Xiheng absolutely believed in his cousin's investment vision. "Then Shaozhong, please help me look for a good one. If there is a good one, we can buy a small Western-style house."
Ling Xuan said: "It would be even better if we could still be neighbors."
Ye Shuning looked at her cousin and said, "Cousin, I called my aunt last time and she said that my family is introducing you to a girlfriend. She's the daughter of a close family friend, also from a prominent family. She's very beautiful and has just returned from studying abroad. She's an educated woman. Have you met her?"
Yan Xiheng didn't feel shy when his cousin asked about his girlfriend. He said frankly, "I met her a few days ago when I returned to Nangang. She seemed nice, so I decided to get to know her and get to know her better."
Li Shaozhong laughed and said, "Oh, so you're interested in her."
Yan Xiheng shook his head and smiled, "I wouldn't say it's interesting. I just think it's a good fit. In a family like ours, especially since I'll have to shoulder family responsibilities in the future, I can't do whatever I want. I don't have a favorite girl anyway, so it doesn't matter who I find, as long as it's the right fit."
Li Shaozhong disagreed, "At least you have to like it yourself, otherwise it would be boring to live like this. This is related to your lifelong happiness, you can't be so perfunctory."
Yan Xiheng looked at Li Shaozhong and said, "Do you think everyone is as lucky as you to have met Xiao Ning? You two like each other, and after going through so many twists and turns, you are still able to be together. It is really a blessing from heaven. Not everyone is as lucky as you.
Aye's family is also urging him to get married. He's better off than me, after all, he has an older brother who's already married."
Qin Zongye said, "It's better with my eldest brother at the front. We used to compete fiercely, but now that I've moved to the mainland, our relationship has eased a lot. I'm not that interested in the position of head of the Qin family anymore."
Just like Xiao Ning said before, I can definitely create my own wealth instead of inheriting what's already there. My business in mainland China is now thriving, and my father even looks at me differently. Only when you reach a higher level, when you look back, do you realize how narrow your previous perspective was.
Ling Xuan, standing nearby, chuckled and revealed, "Last time, Second Brother Qin was arranged by his family to meet a girl. He put on a cold face and scared the girl away. I happened to be eating at that restaurant and watched the whole thing."
Yan Xiheng patted Qin Zongye on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Aye, you should be gentler with girls. It's not right to scare them away before you even start."
Qin Zongye shook his head helplessly and said, "I saw that girl's pretentiousness and I couldn't even pretend anymore. So I just decided not to put myself through it. Even if I don't like her, I have to not hate her, otherwise I'd be asking for trouble. We really are in the same boat, both being pressured into marriage."
Li Shaozhong smiled and said, "My cousin is not young anymore, it's time for him to find a girlfriend. Xiao Ning and I already have three children, I'm so envious. I guess this is why you're being urged to get married. Only Ling Xuan is still young, so he can be free for two more years."
Ling Xuan quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm not in a hurry. My career is much more interesting than finding a girlfriend."
In the evening, Ye Shuning packed Li Shaozhong's things. Li Shaozhong was going to Haizhou for quite a while, so he had to bring more clothes.
Li Shaozhong looked at his daughter-in-law who was in a bad mood and knew that she couldn't bear to leave him.
He stepped forward, held her in his arms, kissed Ye Shuning's temples gently, and said softly, "Wife, I will definitely familiarize myself with the situation at the Haizhou Automobile Factory in the shortest possible time and come back as soon as possible. As for when the negotiations will be held, I will go to Haizhou at that time.
I will come back often when I have time. I can’t bear to leave you for too long.”
Ye Shuning leaned on her husband's arms and said, "Now that the child has been weaned, I can go to Haizhou to see you. It's okay for the child to leave me for a few days. It's just that it's not appropriate to leave all the children at home with my eldest brother."
Li Shaozhong's eyes lit up when he heard that. "We have Sister Liu and Sister Li back home. It's no problem. We can still spend some time alone in Haizhou."
Ye Shuning burst out laughing. "You only think about those idle stories. If I go to Haizhou, Zhang Hanwu will definitely follow me. Where is the world of two people?"
Li Shaozhong said, "When you get there, I'll kick Zhang Hanwu out and tell him to stay in a hotel so he doesn't disturb our world of two."
Ye Shuning smiled and patted Li Shaozhong, "If you really do that, we'll become famous, and you can just wait for them to laugh at you when you get back."
Li Shaozhong curled his lips and said confidently: "They are all single now, what right do they have to laugh at me?"
A few days later, Li Shaozhong reluctantly bid farewell to his family and went to Haizhou, where he began working as deputy director of the Haizhou Automobile Factory.
Although Li Shaozhong had not been involved in the construction of the new automobile factory, he had come to the Haizhou Automobile Factory as deputy director to familiarize himself with all aspects of the factory. His appointment as deputy director also served as a prelude to future negotiations.
