My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 179 Historical nodes are passing by at any time
The Olympics just ended the day before yesterday.

The huge enthusiasm aroused by the event has died down by the time it reaches Shangzhou, the city in the Three Gorges.

Everyone is still more concerned about their livelihood which is closely related to themselves.

It is already very low-key for Weidong to not mention the Olympic fever and media frenzy he caused in Beijing in such an environment.

Because he felt that telling it would not bring him any benefit.

This place is currently just a mosquito leg, and the oil can't be scraped off.

But he was still a little narrow-minded.

After being released from prison, You Qili is still very influential.

At least among the people who gathered at the hot pot restaurant on West Second Street, there were several bank leaders.

After hearing Old Youming say that he would not get entangled in the case and clear his name, he immediately expressed his support for his work.

Anyone who has had a little work experience knows that there is no such thing as covering the sky with one hand.

Some are being pondered by various deputy positions, peers or superiors, inspections, and investigations.

Everyone has different positions, stands on different sides, and supports different things.

But this scene is too passionate and direct.

Weidong was a little surprised. Was the old leader planning to step down?
I happened to see Ding Haifeng and a few guys from the Reform Committee peeking at the door of the hot pot restaurant.

He moved over and asked this question quietly.

The reform committee was transferred from the original special task force, and people from the public security, procuratorial, judicial, industrial and commercial, tax, banking and commercial departments all serve as part-time investigators.

So when asked, someone whispered: "You don't know, the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China was established, but we haven't had time to open a branch in Shangzhou yet."

Weidong was surprised: "Industrial and Commercial Bank of China? Established this year?"

He always thought it was a century-old store.

Someone nearby laughed: "The Agricultural Bank of China was established in 79, the China Construction Bank was established last year, and the newly established Industrial and Commercial Bank of China is specifically responsible for urban financial business. I heard that the Bank of Communications, investment banks and other new financial institutions will be established soon."

This is almost fucked. Weidong was really distracted by the busy all-nighters for the Olympics over the past ten days.

I didn't notice this at all.

The timing of Lao You's appearance is very delicate.

Even Dong Xueying could see that the entire bank entrance was throbbing!

Everyone wants to achieve results at this time, and then go to the new bank to expand the territory and get promoted several levels.

But these were just private conversations between the couple at night.

The "meet and greet" at the hot pot restaurant at noon was very lively. You Qili publicly stated that he would not argue about what this year's career meant, suppressing the emotions of his companions.

Moreover, You Qili publicly announced that all previous debts would be borne by his newly opened company. All previous partners could continue to join, but they had to bear the debts in proportion. If they withdrew, they would not have to bear any responsibility at all. Even if there was only one person, he would bear it all.

It caused a lot of warm applause on the spot, and it felt very responsible.

Everyone in the bank feels that there is a better future.

In fact, if Weidong knew that if he had not stolen the valuables such as electrical appliances that Brother Bazi and his men had lifted from the roof, and if he and Dong Xueying had not completed the citrus transportation contract and continued the sand and gravel transportation agreement until now, Wanshang Trading Company's debt would be at least nearly 100,000 yuan.

And now, because the sand and gravel business has small profits but quick turnover, Wanshang Trading Company actually has a surplus in its account.

So let's just consider it as a way to repay You Qili for giving us the titanium metal connection, and also to connect Dong Xueying to Yu Songhai and Sunshine Daily.

The couple looked at each other from a distance in the hot pot restaurant and smiled without saying a word.

After dinner, they only needed to exchange glances. Dong Xueying said that she wanted to get together with old colleagues, and asked Weidong to say that he was going to the city to communicate with the leaders. The two of them went out separately to meet each other, got in the car, and went out of the city to communicate.

After a long sigh of relief after the satisfying experience, Wei Dong couldn't help but complain: "It was so hot last night, damn, I remember your yard faces the river and there's wind, so it might be cooler, right?"

The double-row seats are a natural air-conditioned room, spacious and convenient for turning around.

Dong Xueying just teased, "The girls all sleep on bamboo benches in the yard at night, and they say it's better to work the night shift at the factory. Do you really want to sleep here?" Weidong immediately backed down, "The girls' dormitory? Forget it, this is fine... We have to finish the building this year, so that next year everyone can have a dormitory and sleep comfortably there."

The young woman gently squeezed closer to his embrace, her voice low: "You haven't shouted any slogans, but you really want to make everyone's life better. I want to accompany you to do these things."

Let Weidong understand: "Old You and his gang are so wild. In the end, several banks pooled together a loan of 1.2 million for him. I wouldn't dare to lend him money like this."

Dong Xueying moved her face out, and the waning moon was just enough to illuminate her round outline.

Perhaps she herself didn't realize it, but she acted cutely and thoughtfully: "It was difficult to get a loan before. I wonder if it's easier to get a loan now that he's in jail? I don't understand. One million and two hundred thousand... Oh, you did have that much in Pingjing, but our Feiyan brand's turnover in the past two weeks has already exceeded four million, and you signed a 20-year repayment agreement..."

He couldn't help laughing and shaking his head, leaving Weidong unable to watch any of this and getting busy again.

Finally, the blushing young woman had to pull the towel to wrap herself up to avoid getting angry again before she continued to think hard: "Actually, I think they want to give you a loan, but you don't want anything."

Weidong scoffed. "Pingjing's loan was for the entire Feiyan Factory. We're after the factory's assets. As for that piece of land, holy shit, if it weren't for Pingjing and their eagerness to get rid of it, there's no way they'd transfer the land to a private company, not even the right to use it. I think we'd be doing a disservice to the buyer if the land didn't increase in value tenfold or a hundredfold."

Dong Xueying didn't believe it: "How can it be so amazing? But it's also great to have a piece of land in Pingjing. Just like our ancestral house, although the land is still owned by the state, the house at least has a place to live."

Rang Weidong nodded. "Shen... the third brother said the same thing. They own a compound near the dock. Hey, you know what? Didn't Old You basically agree today to relocate the company to Jiangzhou? I've looked at a few office spaces near the dock before, and I'll go ask about the Shen family compound. I heard it's been sealed off. Let's see if we can recycle it."

The person in his arms glanced at him quietly: "Well, just consider it as a reward for Comrade Shen."

Rang Weidong shook his head. "To each his own. I gave the spicy hot pot shop behind the university to her and her two siblings a long time ago. At least they have a livelihood. If she can do a better job, then I will definitely give her the business. But it's best if they don't get involved in this real estate. Just like I don't dare let them touch guns, their way of thinking is different from ours. It's weird!"

Dong Xueying didn't dwell on this woman. "By the way, Old You decided to go to Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang for an inspection first. Why don't you go with him?"

Let Weidong push it away and say, "I just came back, I can't even spend enough time with you, why would I want to be with him? It's good enough that I can form a company with him in Jiangzhou."

Dong Xueying didn't think too much about it: "Okay, go and fight him without worry, I will take care of the family affairs, Comrade Shen and Xiaoqing can help... Li Erfeng is not bad, or I should ask Teacher Shi to help?"

I finally couldn't help laughing, mainly because the only people left behind were women.

Wei Dong finally got a little annoyed: "Are you jealous or making trouble? I'll teach you a lesson!"

Fortunately, the small truck has steel plates for shock absorption, so it can withstand this kind of shaking all night long.

However, the final topic was that Dong Xueying suggested that the man should visit his old leader the next day to put an end to this dispute regarding You Qili.

In fact, Weidong listens to his wife very much.

The next morning, he sent the sleep-deprived Dong Xueying back to the street corner, went to West Second Street to eat a bowl of mixed noodles, and "bought" a large basket of vacuum-packed cooked food from the factory before going to the city.

Li Erfeng, who supervised the work every day and made sure it started on time, caught him and asked, "They said you didn't go home all night?"

Let Weidong pretend to yawn: "Those guys are too good at blowing the Xuanlongmen formation, they can't stop at all. I'm going to deliver some samples to the boss and settle the bill. I'll go back and catch up on some sleep later."

Li Erfeng was still jumping around, looking at the car, which was completely packed. "When are you going back to Jiangzhou?"

Let Weidong ponder: "Let's see when Lao You leaves. I'll report to the leader and see."

Li Erfeng emphasized that she should be taken with her before she returned to the factory muttering, "Didn't you say you went to see the leader last night?"
That's like meeting two big leaders, how can it be the same?

But when he drove to the compound in the city, Weidong felt completely different.

From the security check-in counter at the entrance to the secretaries and staff inside the building, everyone greeted him: "I saw that photography exhibition you organized. Was that colorful photo of cooking taken in Jiangzhou? Our Shangzhou Cultural Center also has some good works. Can we send them to the exhibition?"

"Are Feiyan brand sanitary napkins also produced by the Aix sanitary napkin factory? I saw the Feiyan brand sold at the store on West Second Street. Is this brand a collaboration between Pingjing and Jiangzhou factories?"

"I heard there's an X tape recorder being sold in the provincial capital. Does it have anything to do with these X sanitary napkins and X cameras?"

For the city officials who have realized that Rang Weidong, the director of the Reform Commission Office, is really something, the channels they follow can comprehensively and cross-confirm a lot of information.

Rang Weidong remained low-key and enthusiastic: "These are just groundwork. Once the groundwork is done, we'll be selling our Shangzhou-based Aix-flavored cooked food nationwide. I hope to get everyone's support. Thank you very much. Come and try it. We're also constantly improving. The previous small packaging wasn't suitable."

Many people responded to this: "I buy there often. I've been to the stalls on West Second Street and the pier. I opened a shop in the city. Everyone likes it."

Rang Weidong explained carefully, "We purchase and produce in bulk, so the cost is definitely much lower. Our goal is to sell to all parts of the country. If we save on transportation costs and sell locally in Shangzhou, other vendors selling prepared food will have to worry about surviving. We still need to try our best to let the people enjoy products with different flavors..."

After being in the tax compound for so long, Wei Dong understood too well how difficult it was to deal with the little devils. Even though he said so much to his superiors, the words he said on the way in could not spread as well.
