Era: Starting from divorce from female college student

September 1983, office compound of the sixth satellite city of Yunlan City.

Lu Miaozhen was summoned for a talk by Meng Yunlong's wife.

Just one sentence was enough to throw Lu Miaozhen into complete panic.

Then she dared not make a fuss anymore.

It's simply because Meng Yunlong's wife is a member of the Black Cross team.

Because if Lu Miaozhen continues to make trouble like this...

Of course, you need to use a sewing machine.

After all, if you're going to cause trouble (like the military), you'll definitely get free rice (a form of payment)!
So, no matter how unwilling she was.

Lu Miaozhen could only leave sadly.

After Lu Miaozhen left.

Meng Yunlong's wife then ran home to discipline him.

In fact, Meng Yunlong was also completely subdued by his wife.

As the person in charge of the sixth satellite city district, Mo Yimin was also terrified by Meng Yunlong's incident.

They quickly arranged for Meng Yunlong to be placed in a less demanding position.

In this way, Meng Yunlong's promising future was ruined.

Zhao Mancang also heard about this and was overjoyed.

But Zhao Mancang never expected that this matter was not over yet.

On the other side, Zhou Xiaoqing and Zhou Datong had arrived at the matchmaking hall in the satellite city, which was still packed with people and beautiful women.

However, compared to the previous matchmaking corner, it was relatively orderly and much quieter.

Overwhelmed by the choices, Zhou Xiaoqing and her husband finally chose their desired future wife on Hou Xiaoqiang's advice.

Then we'll talk to them one by one.

For those who had never had such an experience before, it was truly an eye-opening experience.

After spending most of the day selecting, they quickly reached an agreement.

Of course, the talks were successful, but there are some things that need to be discussed beforehand.

There are certain things you shouldn't do before marriage, and you shouldn't get scammed. You must protect the rights and interests of both parties.

You know, there's a saying that goes, "When disaster strikes, everyone flies away," let alone before marriage.

No matter how much these models want to stay in Yunlan City, and no matter how much Zhou Xiaoqing and the others like their future daughter-in-law, they must remain calm and composed and not act recklessly.

In the meeting room of the Yunlan City Government, several people were discussing one thing today: there may not be enough single young men.

Although it sounds absurd, this is indeed a problem.

This does not refer to single men who have Yunlan City ID cards, but rather to single Chinese men who have not obtained Yunlan City ID cards.

Yunlan City imposes severe restrictions on foreign white and black people.

Therefore, most of the immigrants who came to Yunlan City were Chinese, but one point was overlooked: men and women from Kimura.

Besides Kimura, there are also a large number of immigrants in Southeast Asia.

Immigrants like Zhou Xiaoqing are common in Yunlan City, but there are currently many single models stranded in Yunlan City.

This makes it relatively easy to resolve the marriage issues for this group of single male immigrants.

But what about the other single women?

For example, single, eligible women who immigrated with Zhou Xiaoqing and her group are in trouble.

After all, the sense of disappointment was just too great.

Asking them to find white or black people would be incredibly difficult, because they tend to be conservative.

However, the single men who immigrated with them were all tempted by the prosperity of Yunlan City and the abundance of beautiful women, and they couldn't even look at the single women who already had marriage certificates.

If this trend continues, a large number of single women will appear in Yunlan City. What should be done then?

Although there were many handsome single men before, they were all foreigners. Most of the eligible single women who immigrated from the Three Gorges area were conservative and unwilling to marry these men.

Even if it's someone from Kimura's side, it won't work.

Besides, the single men who immigrated from Kimura's area are all extraordinary individuals.

These men have just as high standards for their future wives.

"I suggest they prioritize marrying these single women, and try to find a way to do so through newborn baby rewards."

Lu Yangui and his group quickly came up with a solution: single men holding Yunlan City ID cards should be given priority in marrying single women holding Yunlan City ID cards, and the newborn reward would be greater.

Conversely, if the person marries a single woman without a Yunlan City ID card, the newborn reward discount will be halved, and other benefits and privileges will also be halved.

This new regulation will definitely solve this problem to a great extent.

Just as Lü Yangui and his group finished discussing the solution, Lu Miaozhen had already entered a law firm.

Because she was threatened by Meng Yunlong's wife that day.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the more my chest hurts.

She's been so proactive in offering herself to him, she just wants to get her position, get rid of Meng Yunlong's wife, or at least ruin him.

But to everyone's surprise, Meng Yunlong's wife was actually from the military.

Lu Miaozhen would definitely not be happy about going to jail.

So after being angry and scared, Lu Miaozhen calmed down and thought things through.

She also felt something was wrong and that she couldn't just believe whatever the other person said, so she went to a law firm.

She paid a lawyer to consult about the (military) marriage and how to protect her rights in this situation.

The lawyer was also stunned after hearing her story.

There are actually people who willingly become mistresses?
And this has already been warned by Meng Yunlong's wife, who is extremely unwilling to accept it, and now she still insists on destroying Meng Yunlong's marital relationship.
"Lawyer, it's like this, Meng Yunlong and I were each other's first love."

"He also said he would give me a future, and that we were going to get married, but..."

Lu Miaozhen explained that she and Meng Yunlong had been dating for more than two years.

They were about to get married, but everything changed because Meng Yunlong came to Yunlan City.

Upon learning of this situation, the lawyer was at a loss for words.

To be honest, the lawyer really doesn't know what Meng Yunlong is thinking about this matter.

It's incredibly foolish of him to accept his first love becoming a mistress and even have so many photos taken of him.

If you don't have the ability, why are you trying to find a mistress like others?
Talent!

Soon, Lu Miaozhen learned from her lawyer that civilian positions in the military are not entirely considered military marriages, and therefore, they are not illegal.

After confirming this point several times, Lu Miaozhen was overjoyed, so she went to the Sixth Satellite City again to report Meng Yunlong once more.

This time, she was determined to bring Meng Yunlong down.

Love turned to hate; this was probably the pent-up anger in Lu Miaozhen's heart. If she didn't release it, something bad would definitely happen. As for whether Meng Yunlong lived or died, what did that have to do with Lu Miaozhen?

Human nature is complex!
Since Meng Yunlong cruelly abandoned his first love...

Then you must take responsibility for your actions.

But what Lu Miaozhen never expected was that after this wave of reports...

Meng Yunlong was not sent inside to operate the sewing machine, and he didn't even leave the city office compound.

They remained inside, albeit demoted.

Then I became a marginalized junior employee, similar to a librarian.

All I can say is that the staff of the Sixth Satellite City are really reliable!
While Lu Miaozhen was speechless with astonishment, she also made up her mind that she wanted to become a civil servant in Yunlan City.

After learning about this, Zhao Mancang also learned that Lu Miaozhen was preparing for the civil service exam. He immediately said: "Pay attention to her, but we need to be careful about how she treats Meng Yunlong."

It's clear that Lu Miaozhen deeply hates Meng Yunlong.

In order to ruin Meng Yunlong, she didn't hesitate to become his mistress for a year.

She spent a whole year forcing a smile, just to collect evidence. How frustrated she must have felt, how much she must have hated Meng Yunlong.

As a result, Meng Yunlong has not been completely defeated yet. How can Lu Miaozhen swallow this insult?
Lu Miaozhen's situation is somewhat similar to Xu Shilin's. The latter happily held a ceremony at the pagoda, hoping to rescue Bai Suzhen. His act of bowing and kowtowing three times and nine times was indeed deeply moving.

Unfortunately, she couldn't move Fahai's heart. After all, the West Lake dried up and Leifeng Pagoda collapsed, allowing Bai Suzhen to be released from Leifeng Pagoda.

However, after ten years of hard study, Xu Shilin finally passed the imperial examination with top honors and was appointed as a Grand Secretary, and was given the title of "Shao'an".

The position of Grand Secretary was a relatively high-ranking official in the Yuan Dynasty, typically responsible for providing advice to the emperor and drafting documents.

I won't go into just how awesome it is.

Therefore, after Xu Shilin returned to his hometown of Hangzhou, all the local officials came to pay him a visit.

Then rescuing his mother, Bai Suzhen, would be a simple matter of a word.

Lu Miaozhen is currently focusing all her efforts on preparing for the civil service exam. Once she becomes a civil servant and climbs the ranks, Meng Yunlong will likely be in even greater danger.

Even though Meng Yunlong is now a low-level employee with a very leisurely job, taking him down is still just a matter of a word.
Zhao Mancang's interest in Lu Miaozhen was not out of boredom, but because he happened to come across this matter and wanted to see how it would develop and how it would affect the reform and improvement of the civil service system in Yunlan City.

It will definitely be very inspiring.

Even though Yunlan City is just a newly established city, everyone is enthusiastically building it up.

However, human nature is complex, and there will always be people who, in the process, reach out recklessly and cause trouble.

Therefore, Zhao Mancang naturally had to take a closer look and figure out the specifics.

As October approached, Zhao Mancang suddenly remembered something: the National Day holiday.

This year is 1983, and next year will be 1984.

Based on historical trends, there will definitely be a National Day military parade next year.

Sure enough, just a few days after Zhao Mancang returned to Beijiang City, he received a call from Beijing. His superiors wanted him to come back and discuss something.

In the center of a courtyard house on Wenjin Street in Beijing, there is a conference room.

After Zhao Mancang entered, he greeted the leaders and exchanged pleasantries before getting straight to the point.

"We discussed it and decided to hold a military parade next National Day to boost morale."

The main reason is that we haven't held a military parade for many years, so of course we need to do it again.

At this moment, Zhao Mancang remained silent, waiting for the leaders to continue.

It was obvious that the leader had something to discuss with him.

Sure enough, after a while, the leader asked if the Jiaolong Army under his command wanted to participate.
"They definitely shouldn't have come. There are only a few of them. If they were to march in formation, their martial arts skills would be useless."

Almost instantly, Zhao Mancang shook his head and refused without even thinking about it.

Zhao Mancang has paid little attention to the Jiaolong Commando unit anymore.

He would only go along to check on things occasionally.

After all, his main task now is to improve Beijiang City.

From 1974 to now, Beijiang City has developed for almost ten years. In such a long time, Beijiang City has grown from a small county town with only tens of thousands of people to a metropolis with a population of over five million.

Currently, there aren't many cities in China with a population exceeding five million.

The Jiaolong Commando has also made good progress in recent years. In short, it has done a very good job, which is already quite good for Zhao Mancang.

Although he received little attention, it doesn't mean Zhao Mancang didn't pay attention.

Conversely, due to the development of drones and the emergence of many cutting-edge technologies from the Shaya Laboratory, the Jiaolong Commando has been able to win battles with fewer troops and most of the time.

There's no need to worry too much.

"We didn't mean for them to come and march in formation!" the leader said, half-laughing and half-crying. "We meant for them to come and take a look from this side of the city gate."

After all, the Jiaolong Army are great contributors, how could we let them march in formation?

Most of the troops participating in the parade have specialized units that march in goose-step.

Because this is for a military parade, they must be trained in the most basic steps of marching.

But what are the Jiaolong Army doing?

They rarely have time to rest, as they are always on missions overseas. How could they possibly do morning exercises and march in formation every day?

However, it's unnecessary to go to the city gate to watch the military parade, as the Jiaolong Army is a secretive force.

Of course, we can invite some representatives from retired Jiaolong Commando members, such as Zou Xinmin, Yang Chunjiang, and Zuo Changsheng.

"Okay, no problem. What about you?"

Zhao Mancang heard this and shook his head:

"I won't come to the city gate tower to watch the ceremony. I'll go downstairs and bring my children to participate. I think this kind of ceremony is quite interesting."

Going to the city gate tower to watch the ceremony would be too conspicuous and unnecessary.

He might have done this before he founded Yunlan City.

After all, when he first traveled to this parallel universe, he was indeed very willing to participate in the military parade, but now, he no longer has those thoughts.

To be fair, the 1984 military parade was indeed a legendary event, but for Zhao Mancang, it didn't seem to have much of an impact.

After he left the compound, the leaders exchanged glances and couldn't help but smile.

However, they didn't say anything, but they already understood everything.

Meanwhile, Zhao Mancang had already returned to Beijiang City, and after his return, he had put the matter out of his mind.

Beijiang City is developing very well now, but it still has many problems.

That is, sluggish consumption.

Inside a conference room in the municipal government building, Zhao Mancang looked at Lu Shengwen, Yang Kangsheng, and others.

"Is this problem so difficult to solve? Haven't you thought about why people are unwilling to spend money? Haven't you considered this question?" (End of Chapter)
