Chapter 1247 Emotional stability
As the saying goes, where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes. This island far away from the hustle and bustle is no exception. You must know that a garrison has a force of 12,000 people, so some disputes and conflicts are still inevitable.

At an internal meeting at the garrison headquarters, Director Wang of the Political Department directly attacked Su Ning. "Commander Su, the Political Department received a letter of complaint a few days ago alleging that you abused your authority to have the Garrison Logistics Department build a toilet for you. Furthermore, you illegally dug a septic tank in the yard. So, please explain yourself at today's meeting."

However, Suning smiled calmly and explained, "No problem! The public's objections show that they care about our work, which means our work is meaningful.

The reason I built an indoor toilet was to save time.

You should know that going back and forth to the public toilets outside is very time-consuming, not to mention having to wait in line at the door of the public toilet.

It simply does not meet the basic requirement of our troops to respond quickly."

"..." At this moment, everyone in the conference room was stunned, and suddenly realized that Suning exuded strong confidence.

"Also, I arranged for the logistics department to dig a biogas tank in the corner of the courtyard. It's not just a septic tank. The biogas produced can be used to start fires or generate electricity. This is also an attempt to reduce the supply pressure on our island."

"Su Si, can this biogas pool really generate fire and generate electricity as you said?" Sure enough, Suning's words made many colleagues curious.

"No problem at all! Perhaps the technology to generate electricity from biogas is too difficult. Currently, not only Songshan Island, but even technologically and economically advanced cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou can't do it.

However, there is no problem using biogas for cooking. In addition, the residue produced by the biogas digester is an excellent organic fertilizer, which is also very beneficial for growing crops."

"Well, how about we really promote biogas digesters on a large scale on our island next?" Zhao Si, the biggest boss of the island's security zone, asked with interest.

"It's totally feasible! Mr. Zhao, our family has already started using biogas to cook, so the feasibility of biogas digesters has been fully demonstrated. I will personally be responsible for promoting biogas digesters on Songshan Island and report to the higher-ups at that time."

"it is good."

However, Director Wang, who was standing nearby with a dark face, was furious and quickly spoke out to stop this "absurd behavior." "Manager Zhao, Manager Su, I don't think it's necessary. We can't even use up all the firewood right now. Is it really necessary to go to all this trouble to build a biogas tank?"

"This..." As expected, Director Wang's objection made Zhao Si hesitate again.

"Manager Zhao, Director Wang, biogas is a completely clean energy source. It's much cleaner than traditional wood stoves and won't have a negative impact on the island environment. Furthermore, our experiments on the islands can also be popularized in other areas lacking energy. Isn't this contributing to the development of our country?"

"Good! What Su Si said is very good. This is the first time that our family takes the lead in responding." The big boss of the security area, Zhao Si, made the final decision with a smile on his face.

"No problem! I will arrange for the logistics department to build a toilet and a biogas tank at Zhao Si's house." Suning naturally accepted the task without hesitation.

"..." Seeing Su Ning and Zhao Si singing the same tune, Director Wang stood there in confusion.

However, Suning took the opportunity to reveal another plan of his own, which was obviously to turn Songshan Island into a "happy fishing ground." "Also, Director Zhao, all of our material supplies on Songshan Island are too dependent on external supplies, which also puts a great pressure on the logistics of Changshan Fortress and the base. So, can we try aquaculture on Songshan Island?"

"What? Marine farming?" The shocked whispers of colleagues were heard again in the conference room.

"Right! As the saying goes, live by the mountain, eat by the mountain; live by the sea, eat by the sea. We can definitely try aquaculture in the shallow sea and mudflats. When the time comes, the abundant seafood harvest will not only supply Songshan Island, but also try to support the entire Changshan Fortress and base."

"Uh..." At this moment, all the officers in the conference room began to breathe rapidly.

"Nonsense! Su Si, we're a coastal defense fortress here. Our main mission should be building the fortress and defending against invading enemies, not your current seafood farming. Besides, there are already so many fishermen out at sea, why do we need to engage in time-consuming and labor-intensive artificial aquaculture?"

"Director Wang, artificial aquaculture can enrich seafood and increase production. We can obtain the fish we want to eat on a large scale. It's not comparable to fishermen going out to sea. In addition, anyone with experience at sea knows the dangers of sea fishing, but there are no such concerns with artificial aquaculture in the near sea."

"Hmph! Su Si, don't forget that we are soldiers stationed on the coast, not farmers who cultivate seafood." Director Wang no longer had much to say at this time, and he kept repeating the same few fixed nonsense over and over again.

"Director Wang is right! However, if our artificial breeding attempt is successful, we can hand it over to the indigenous people of the island or the families of the garrison officers and soldiers. It will definitely not affect the main responsibilities of our garrison."

"This……"

At this time, the security zone's big boss, Zhao Si, looked at Su Ning excitedly again and asked, "Su Si, do you have confidence in artificial breeding?"

"Yes! I am very confident that we can develop artificial breeding into our new granary."

"Alright! I support this in principle! However, this is a serious matter, so Command must first submit a request to our superiors. We can only proceed after receiving approval from the fortress and base leadership."

"Yes! Zhao Si."

"..."

Director Wang was undoubtedly feeling very aggrieved at this moment. He did not expect that his move today would be completely defeated by Suning. He realized that Suning must have thought carefully before doing anything.

Of course, Director Wang also noticed the playful expressions of other colleagues looking at him, but his dark face perfectly concealed his own embarrassment, and this guy's usual behavior showed that he was very thick-skinned.

After the meeting, Director Wang trotted over to Su Ning and said, "Boss Su, my remarks just now were all official business. Please don't overthink it."

"Don't worry! Director Wang, I understand. It is precisely the supervision and correction of your Political Department that enables our army to maintain super combat effectiveness." However, Suning had a nonchalant attitude. These things had been anticipated from the beginning.

"Haha, Su Si, it's best if you understand. I was a little worried that you would overthink it."

"Director Wang, you're worrying too much."

Suning understands that being in a high position will naturally attract attention. For example, in the original drama, many people did not know where the homes of those island military officers were, but they all knew where Jiang Defu's home was, because Jiang Defu was the highest-ranking official on Songshan Island, and all the actions of the Jiang family would be infinitely magnified.

Therefore, Suning will have to become more and more cautious in doing things in the future and will never leave any handles or excuses for anyone. After all, it is very difficult to turn this island into a paradise for himself and Chen Xiaojun.

……

After returning to the office, Suning immediately got busy. He just wanted to finish the application report as soon as possible. Since he had to do it, he had to do it in the best direction.

At noon, Suning did not go home for lunch. Instead, he called Chen Xiaojun in advance, and then had a quick meal in the company cafeteria. Sure enough, he submitted the two application reports before leaving get off work.

It was soon time to get off work. Suning didn't take today's events to heart. Instead, he couldn't wait to rush home. He didn't know whether Chen Xiaojun and the children had a good lunch.

Director Wang looked at Su Ning's back as he walked straight to the family area, but he snorted coldly with a very complicated feeling in his heart. He felt that his new superior was far more "dangerous" than he had imagined.

As soon as Su Ning returned home, he looked at Chen Xiaojun with a smile and asked, "Xiaojun, what did you eat in the cafeteria at noon?"

"The food in the cafeteria is not tasty, I just took some at random." However, Chen Xiaojun looked at Suning with an aggrieved expression. Unconsciously, he had become dependent on Suning's company and love.

"Then I'll go to the kitchen and cook. You can eat more later to make up for it." "Okay."

Then Suning went straight into the kitchen to wash his hands and cook. Soon a table full of six dishes and a soup was ready. Chen Xiaojun and his son were naturally happy to feast on the meal.

Looking at his wife who was still as happy as a little girl, Suning found himself extremely happy as well, realizing that he was really in love with this woman.

Chen Xiaojun, his mouth full of oil, hurriedly urged Suning to eat, "Suning, don't just look at it! Aren't you hungry?"

"Not bad! We had extra meals in the cafeteria today, so I ate more at noon." Suning's happiest thing was watching his wife and children eat.

"Humph! No matter how small the kitchen is, it can't compare to your cooking skills. I still prefer eating the food you cook."

"The weather is too hot now, and there's no refrigerator here, so I'll have to wait until it gets colder. I'll make some more, and you can heat it up and eat it later."

"Okay! But I think I'm pregnant again."

"Huh? No way! Your appetite hasn't changed!"

"Silly! Being pregnant doesn't necessarily mean you'll vomit and lose your appetite."

"Indeed! I'll check your pulse after dinner."

"Ah."

Director Wang was also eating at home at this time, but his family didn't need him to cook at all. He could eat steaming hot meals as soon as he got home.

However, Director Wang, who felt suffocated today, had no appetite. It was really because of Suning's ease in handling the situation today that made him a little scared, especially the way Suning looked at him, which was full of amusement and contempt, which made Director Wang feel very uncomfortable.

Zhang Guiying looked at her husband across from her with a puzzled look on her face and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you have an appetite today?"

"Hmph! The pickled radish you made is too salty. And can't the salted fish be soaked in water for a while longer?" Director Wang immediately used his wife as an object of venting his anger.

"Huh? How about I make you a bowl of plain noodles?"

"Forget it! Let's just eat like this!"

"Lao Wang, did something happen at work?"

"No! I just can't stand the new guy, Suning. He actually had the logistics department install an indoor toilet for him and dug a biogas tank in the yard. Now he wants to start artificial breeding on Songshan Island. I think he's clearly not doing his job properly."

"I feel pretty good! Now that we have a toilet at home, we don't have to queue outside. Artificial breeding may really give us more things to do."

"Hmph! You don't know what you're talking about! I'm not eating anymore." Director Wang naturally threw down the steamed bread and chopsticks in frustration.

"If you don't want to eat, then don't eat! Why are you throwing it?" Zhang Guiying, who was as good as a clay figure but had a temper, also got angry.

"I……"

"Also! If you think my cooking isn't tasty, just follow Su Ning's lead and cook in the kitchen yourself. Chen Xiaojun never cooks at home, but Su Ning, a grown man, does all the cooking in their house, and he doesn't have as many problems as you."

"Uh..." This was naturally the first time Director Wang heard of such a thing. He really didn't expect that Suning was a "henpecked husband".

Suning naturally didn't know that he would embarrass Director Wang today, but his emotions were indeed very stable at the time. If Director Wang really felt unwell, it was his own problem.

At this time, Su Ning had already cleaned up the leftovers and sat there to take Chen Xiaojun's pulse. Sure enough, she found that Chen Xiaojun was pregnant again.

Su Ning put down Chen Xiaojun's wrist with a look of surprise on his face and said, "It really is! You've been pregnant for over a month. It seems that you succeeded on the first day we came to the island."

"Hmph! I guess it must be that time. I felt that you were really crazy that time." When Chen Xiaojun thought of Suning's "absurd behavior" that day, he felt hot all over.

"Xiaojun, you are pregnant again so soon. From now on, I will have to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures again." However, Suning soon realized a big problem.

"Is it your fault?"

"Hey! It seems I need to find more work next time, so that I won't have all these crazy thoughts when I see you when I get home."

Then Chen Xiaojun looked at Su Ning in disbelief, "Su Ning, do you like that so much?"

"Hehe, what normal man wouldn't like that?"

"But you've already experienced so many worlds. You've seen thousands of women, if not ten thousand. Logically, you should have been bored by now, right?"

"How can such a joyful thing feel dull?"

"Oh! I suddenly feel regretful."

"What do you regret?"

"I regret that I didn't know how to possess you all by myself. If Hu Yue was here, you wouldn't be so miserable."

"Xiaojun, I actually want to spend my life with you as an equal. Some discomforts can be overcome."

"Suning, I will definitely practice the immortal cultivation technique well, and I will be your woman for all eternity."

"Chen Xiaojun, I'm going to take your words seriously. From now on, you won't be able to die even if you want to."

"Huh? How could you make such sweet words sound so horrible?"

"Haha, stop savoring it and go to bed! The lights will be turned off soon."

"Humph! Bad guy."
