The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

Chapter 544 Want to laugh
The relevant departments immediately launched an investigation, thoroughly investigating Mr. Yang's family history for eighteen generations, and ultimately concluded that Mr. Yang was trustworthy.

The leader called Liu Hua: "I won't bother two people with this matter. I'd like to trouble you and our naval comrades to talk to Boss Yang and tell him to do his best and make sure the Americans don't find out."

Mr. Yang was also puzzled by Academician Liu's sudden return a week later. They had agreed on a six-month period, so why was it suddenly rushed?
"Academician Liu, what brings you here today?"

Just as Liu Hua was about to speak, he suddenly saw Yang Zi serving tea and water, so he didn't speak directly but took a sip of tea first.

"I do have two important things I'd like to tell you. Could you please ask this child to leave for a moment?"

"My younger brother," Boss Yang said with a smile. "I'll take him along for some training. It shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Liu Hua gently shook his head: "It's not that I don't trust your brother, but the matter is very important. I'm afraid he's a young man, full of passion, and might blurt out something he shouldn't."

Boss Yang nodded: "Third brother, you go out and watch the door, don't let anyone in."

Yang Zi was still a little unhappy. After all, this company belongs to our family, and I have shares in it. Why can't I listen to what they say?

But with just one look from his brother, Yang Zi immediately knew what was going on, and obediently retreated, standing guard four or five meters away from the gate.

Mr. Yang personally filled Liu Hua's teacup: "Academician Liu, please speak your mind. What comes out of your mouth will go into my ears, and I will never let anyone else know."

"It's still about that bridge cable from last time," Liu Hua asked with a smile. "Do you know why that cable needed to be so strong?"

Mr. Yang shook his head: "I don't know. Actually, I've been wondering about it too. But since they've placed the order and the price isn't bad, I won't make a fuss about it. After all, the customer is king."

Liu Hua and the naval representative exchanged a smile, then he shook his head: "You really are a naive businessman. To tell you the truth, the cables they want are not bridge cables at all."

"If it's not a bridge cable, then where would you use such a high-strength cable?"

The naval representative pulled out his badge and said, "Mr. Yang, I'm sorry, but I'm not actually Academician Liu's security personnel. I'm from the Navy. I'm here to tell you the truth. The kind of arresting cable that the Americans want is actually for aircraft arresting cables on aircraft carriers."

Mr. Yang was completely stunned; the teapot in his hand wobbled and almost fell to the ground.

It took him a while to come to his senses. Mr. Yang shook his head: "Impossible, right? Such an important thing, he would entrust it to us? Although our Juling Group has a little bit of international reputation, it's not enough to attract the attention of the Americans. And if they entrust such an important thing to me, are there no objections in their own country?"

“It’s a shell company that’s changed hands several times,” Liu Hua said gleefully. “The purpose is to deceive everyone. The main reason is that it’s cheaper to buy from you than to produce it domestically, so we can make more money.”

The naval representative nodded: "The data we showed you earlier was obtained through great effort; it was data on the arresting cables of the great American aircraft carriers."

Mr. Yang slammed the pot down on the table: "Then this deal is off. The American aircraft carriers are swaggering around us all day long. How can I let them get away with it?"

"Don't bother," Liu Hua waved his hand. "Business still needs to be done. First, your research and development must continue, because our country also needs such arresting cables. We even look forward to you making even better arresting cables." The naval representative nodded silently. "Academician Liu is absolutely right. Our country also needs arresting cables for aircraft carriers."

Mr. Yang asked, puzzled, "Doesn't our country not have an aircraft carrier?"

"Yes, didn't we buy one from Er Mao Xiong that wasn't even finished yet?"

"Under renovation?" Boss Yang's eyes widened, and then he said excitedly, "Oh my god, this surprise is too sudden. No words, no words. I, Yang, am weak and powerless and cannot contribute much, but once the aircraft carrier arresting cables are developed, I can donate one hundred to the country free of charge."

"No need for that. We would prefer your company to enter a virtuous cycle." The naval representative said with a smile, "The price should be whatever it is. Since we have the money to build an aircraft carrier, we won't lack the money for arresting gear. We hope you can make better use of this money to develop better products. Our requirements for arresting gear will be higher in the future."

“No problem, no problem. I don’t need to do anything else with this money. I’ll just use it for research on barrier locks.” Boss Yang said happily, “Oh, I’m so happy. Neither of you are allowed to leave today. You must eat and drink here. I must toast you both. This is so encouraging.”

"Let's put the drinking aside for now and talk about the business with the Americans," Liu Hua said seriously. "We hope you can conduct normal trade with the Americans. Our goal is not to sell them arresting gear, but to squeeze out their domestic arresting gear manufacturers through this trade."

Having fully understood, Boss Yang took a deep breath: "No problem, so that's how it is. I'll definitely cooperate."

Liu Hua pointed upwards with his finger: "The price can be a little higher; there's no reason to sell it to him so cheaply."

“Okay, I estimate that doubling it shouldn’t be a problem.” Mr. Yang said happily, “I never thought I would have this day when I could cooperate with the national strategic action. It’s so exciting.”

"Don't give yourself away in front of the big Americans."

Mr. Yang nodded: "Don't worry, I'm an old hand at this."

That day, Boss Yang didn't let the two of them leave. He respectfully invited them home, where his wife cooked for them herself. He brought out his treasured 20-year-old wine and toasted them three times.

His good younger brother Yang Zi later asked, "Brother, I know they are important people, but you didn't have to act like this, did you?"

“You don’t understand. The reason I let you out today is because they told me something huge, but I can’t tell you.” Boss Yang said happily, “Just wait and see. The truth will come out one day, and you will be even more shocked than I am today.”

His brother kept his mouth shut, and Yangzi had no choice but to wait and hope that the truth would come out one day.

Coincidentally, less than two months later, the United States also sent people over to check on the progress of its research on aircraft carrier arresting gear.

Looking at their serious expressions, Boss Yang couldn't help but laugh.
