After thinking carefully, he felt that if he relied on those past-life marketing tactics to hype things up, the leadership would likely misunderstand, thinking Shazhu was angry with someone and deliberately not opening for business, leading them to give him a hard time, which wasn't good, so he decided to open in three days.

Yu Li No Longer Needs to Worry

Then

It just so happened that He Weiguo, who was accompanying his sister to buy sugar figurines, saw it.

Due to Jia Zhangshi's recent series of self-destructive behavior, He Weiguo and the other new-generation residents of the siheyuan all the more despised the Jia family.

He didn't speak ill of the Jia family.

But whenever the Jia family ran into misfortune, he couldn't help but chuckle.

He hurriedly hugged his sister, went to inquire, and after learning the reason Bangeng was arrested, he entered the teahouse opposite the Red Star Restaurant.

He wanted to tell his father the good news that Bangeng had been caught, so Shazhu could also enjoy himself.

But because Shazhu was engrossed in reading today's newspaper, the reporting matter came to nothing.

On the contrary, Yu Li, sitting opposite Shazhu, poked He Xiaoli's little head in He Weiguo's arms, whispered a few words of advice to He Weiguo, and then He Weiguo took his sister out to play.

Yu Li then turned her gaze to the newspaper, looking at the headline and content; the heart that had been suspended these past few days finally settled.

He slammed it hard on the table.

If he had known that Bangeng would end up in jail upon returning to the capital, it would have been better to let him stay honestly in the countryside; instead, they went to great lengths to bring Bangeng into the city, only for him to end up in jail.

He actually still wanted to delay a bit longer.

Hand

Want to marry a wife.

Factory Director Yang's tone.

This is hardly an apology.

…… (ellipsis, no)

It's just hype.

Even though Shazhu and Yu Li repeatedly assured that everything was fine.

The newspaper wrote these few sentences, promoting the steps of market economic development, taking economic recovery as the primary means, and even mentioning the names of Bai Xu and Shazhu.

As the old saying goes, marry a man just to have clothes and food.

Suddenly, it was a picture completely opposite to what had come before.

The matter of opening for business.

"When will we open for business?"

Deputy Factory Director Li glanced at Factory Director Yang and uttered a platitude: "Since the superiors have given their approval, we will follow their instructions."

To apply pressure.

"Let's estimate starting from three years!"

On the way.

Yagangchang

The more miserable Bangeng became, the happier Shazhu felt; the resentment from his past life, when Bangeng had driven him out of the house to starve to death, could finally be vented to the fullest.

Marrying Bangeng, and still having a wife earn money to support him—what could they possibly be after!

The Jia family figured there would be more fun to watch.

It's not that Shazhu is cold-blooded; seeing the Jia family suffer and still wanting to kick them is because the Jia family owes Shazhu.

He also let out a sigh of relief.

"Deputy Factory Director Li, you're hiding your clumsiness today. I remember at the last weekly meeting, you spoke with certainty that He Yuzhu's actions at Bai Xu were giving our Yagangchang a bad name, and that He Yuzhu should be severely dealt with. This matter ultimately came to nothing because I disagreed, and here I apologize to Deputy Factory Director Li."

Shazhu shook his head speechlessly.

The Jia family is no longer the Jia family.

Shazhu was so frightened that he stopped in his tracks, staring straight at Yu Li.

After all, Yu Li lacks Shazhu's foresight.

It's clearly a slap in the face.

"Head of the household, do you think Qin Huairu will regret this outcome?"

To sum it up in one sentence.

His complexion looked somewhat relieved.

After thinking it over carefully, he felt that if he relied on those past-life marketing tactics to hype things up, the leadership would likely misunderstand, thinking Shazhu was angry with someone and deliberately refusing to open for business, thus getting petty retaliation from the leaders—definitely not a good thing—so he gave the answer of opening in three days.

His expression also turned solemn.

He also had no work.

At the previous weekly safety production meeting, the newly arrived Deputy Factory Director Li openly used Bai Xu and Shazhu to launch an attack against Factory Director Yang; this time, the two sides swapped roles, with Factory Director Yang, who was presiding over Yagangchang's overall operations, now retorting against Deputy Factory Director Li.

Conference room.

"Just now's newspaper, everyone has seen it, right? Let's talk, what do you want to say?" Factory Director Yang gave Deputy Factory Director Li no face, seeing that no one wanted to speak up, he pointed at Deputy Factory Director Li and said, "Deputy Factory Director Li, you start, talk about what beneficial impact this matter has for our Yagangchang."

But Yu Li had been worried from start to finish, fearing that Shazhu would really end up like the neighbors said, sharing Liu Haizhong's fate of enjoying twenty years of free meals.

"It's fine."

Can only rely on dreaming.

In black and white, the words voiced strong support for Shazhu, frankly stating that Bai Xu's interior facilities and the layout of the second-floor private rooms had opened a promising start for the subsequent catering industry.

At the end of the article.

With Bangeng ending up like this, all he could do was raise both hands and feet and say "good".

"Can Bai Xu open for business again?"

Shazhu fell into deep thought.

Yu Li told Shazhu about how Bangeng had been caught.

It also struck Deputy Factory Director Li's heart.

"If one day I fail to uphold my principles and agree with Deputy Factory Director Li's proposal on Comrade He Yuzhu, what impression will our Yagangchang leadership team leave on the superiors? Lacking foresight, stubbornly sticking to old ways, living off past achievements in the merit register, not fit for great responsibility."

"Shazhu sounded the charge for the Capital City's catering industry!"

"The Capital City's catering industry, and even the entire nation's catering industry, will undergo earth-shaking changes because of Shazhu; it is said that Shazhu single-handedly drove the progress of the whole catering industry."

"I guess I'll end up regretting it to death."

"\"Yes. \""

"The newspaper was gently placed on the table by Shazhu."

"Yu Li no longer wanted to continue strolling with Shazhu; she took his hand, left the restaurant, gave a few instructions to He Weiguo and the others, asking He Weiguo and He Xianghong to take their younger siblings and stroll a bit longer, then hurry back to the Siheyuan when it's about time, while she and Shazhu went to Bai Xu."

"Yu Li repeated what she had just said, saying that He Weiguo saw Bangeng being taken away from the Red Star Hotel by the police, tightly bound, and heard that he had committed some crime of not paying for meals, eating for free for seven or eight days straight."

"Then it became heavy."

"Not just regret."

"Which day?"

"\"The facts prove that my insistence was correct; regarding the Bai Xu matter, the superiors considered it more comprehensively than we did, and I am now fearful. Comrades, the Bai Xu matter is settled, but I, Yang Weimin, am still fearful, and I feel a chill down my spine. \""

"\"Head of the household, is everything alright now? \""

"\"Which family's parents, lacking sense, would marry their precious daughter to a beast who has been to prison or is a Chen Shimei? \""

"\"It's none of our business; let him be good or bad, we just live our own lives. \""

"\"I don't mean that; I just want to know whether Bangeng will end up in jail over this matter. \""

"Deputy Factory Director Li also, in front of Factory Director Yang, vigorously slapped the table."

"One good turn deserves another."

"It has been returned."

"\"Comrades, I am very worried; to improve the spiritual civilization construction work of our Yagangchang, I propose that the newly arrived Deputy Factory Director Li take specific charge of this work, and I also ask Deputy Factory Director Li not to shirk responsibility—for the sake of Yagangchang and its future, please Deputy Factory Director Li shoulder this burden. \""
