Chapter 1536

A smile also appeared on the old man's face as he looked at Zhou Andong: "Is there anything else to say?"

"No!" Zhou Andong shook his head: "These last points are just some thoughts in my heart; before they have been verified and piloted, they absolutely cannot be promoted on a large scale."

In fact, he knew very well that whether it was the old man, his father-in-law, or Jian Zhengrong, it was impossible to push them forward without verification and pilot projects.

But he still had to make things clear; after all, the scriptures were fine and had been tested. But if the monk chanting the scriptures chanted them crookedly, there would definitely be problems, so don't blame it on his head when the time comes.

The old man was very satisfied and said to Jian Zhengrong: "Copy a version for me in a while."

Jian Zhengxue followed up: "And one for me."

Jian Zhengrong nodded and handed the completed notes to Jian Mingfan: "Copy this twice and give a copy to your grandfather and second uncle."

Jian Mingfan looked at the dense handwriting on it, and his whole face twisted together as if he had eaten bitter melon.

"So much, when will I finish copying it?"

Jian Zhengrong hummed: "You can eat when you finish copying."

Jian Mingfan wanted to struggle, but seeing Jian Zhengrong's expression, he immediately closed his mouth.

The small hemp rope was already around his neck; the more he struggled, the tighter it got, so he'd better forget it, otherwise, he would be the one suffering.

This kid never dreamed that because he massaged Zhou Andong's legs, his father got jealous, so he arranged this job for him.

Jian Zhengxue looked at Zhou Andong: "Should Minglang's old city renovation plan be modified according to what you said?"

"That's your business." Zhou Andong said: "I just expressed my opinion; as for how to do it, I'm just a small businessman, so how could I have a say?"

Jian Zhengxue's mouth twitched as he looked at the old man: "Jiangzhou city will develop eastward, rural urbanization will be temporarily canceled, and enterprise reform will also wait until after verification and pilot projects before being pushed forward."

The old man nodded: "Enterprises that have already gone bankrupt can be sold at discretion. Those with good performance or those that can still be maintained can be relocated to the Jiangzhou Industrial Park.

As for the renovation of the old city, especially the renovation of the old city of Guta, it should be done according to what Dongzi said. You cannot destroy a city with a profound historical and cultural heritage just because of modernization construction.

However, you must conduct a new field investigation and planning plan before you can move. This is not urgent; anyway, it's not something that can be completed in a year or two."

Zhou Andong rolled his eyes: "Grandpa, around August or September, when the weather is high and crisp, not cold and not hot, I invite you to go to Jiangzhou to walk around and take a look."

The old man looked at Zhou Andong suspiciously: "Inviting me to Jiangzhou for no reason—are you playing some kind of trick again, you little brat?"

"You are my grandfather; what bad intentions could I have?" Zhou Andong said aggrievedly: "I just feel that our Jiangzhou is also a heroic city, the place where the Liaoshen Campaign started; there might still be your comrades-in-arms there.

Moreover, Jiangzhou's historical and cultural heritage is also very rich; I invite you to walk around and take a look just because I want you to relax and not stay in the capital all the time.

Besides, I built a sanatorium, and there is also a sky garden, which belongs to the first phase of the urban complex project. By August or September, the sanatorium and the sky garden will be almost finished.

By then, you can invite a few old friends, as well as those old heroes and old soldiers who have retired at home, to go over and stay for a few days; I will waive all expenses."

The suspicious look on the old man's face became even thicker, but Jian Qiu's eyes lit up.

"Grandpa, it's mainly because Dongzi and I are holding our wedding banquet on October 1st; you can go a few days early, just consider it a vacation."

"And also!" Zhou Andong took over the conversation: "After the spring, our Yugong Group will fund the renovation and expansion of the Jiangzhou Martyrs' Cemetery; you can go take a look then and give some opinions."

Originally, the old man didn't intend to go to Jian Qiu and Zhou Andong's wedding.

After all, with the old man's status, every move he made was watched by the outside world.

No matter where he went, it would be a big deal, which was too troublesome.

But hearing Zhou Andong say he would spend money to renovate and expand the Jiangzhou Martyrs' Cemetery, the old man was moved.

It wasn't that he hadn't been to Jiangzhou, but that was thirty years ago.

The cemetery there was actually a concern in his heart.

Because he did indeed have two comrades-in-arms buried there.

"Okay!" The old man thought about it repeatedly and nodded in agreement.

Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths curled up at the same time.

Zhou Andong said: "By then, invite your old friends, as well as the old heroes who have retired at home, and everyone can go together."

At this time, Jian Yufang came out of the kitchen and, seeing that the matter had been discussed, said to Jian Mingliang: "Mingliang, go to my house, pick up your grandmother, and by the way, go to your old aunt's husband's unit and pick him up too."

Jian Yue asked strangely: "I wanted to ask just now; how come Grandma didn't come back with you when you went out?"

Jian Yufang said: "The shopping took a bit long, and Grandma was tired; it just so happened that she was near my house, so I sent Grandma to my place. I originally thought about picking her up when I came back, but I forgot in the end."

"I'll go right now." Jian Mingliang stepped out.

"I'm going outside to get some air."

Zhou Andong stood up and walked outside; he couldn't stand the man-eating gazes of Li Yan and Jian Yulan anymore.

But since the other party hadn't started a fight, he couldn't just ask "what are you looking at" just because they were staring at him.

So, since I can't afford to provoke you for the time being, I'll just hide outside.

Jian Minglang was like a soul that had been lost; he had put so much effort into the old city renovation project.

He hadn't expected that, just today, it would be completely rejected by Zhou Andong, and he would be criticized to the point of being torn to shreds.

What made him even more unable to accept it was that both his grandfather and his second uncle had actually accepted Zhou Andong's opinion.

The city's eastward expansion and rural urbanization were deleted, and enterprise reform was also suspended.

All that was left was the old city renovation, which still required new field investigations and new planning; this was too big a blow to his self-esteem.

Watching Jian Minglang standing there in a daze, Jian Mingzhi sighed secretly; if his second brother became depressed because of this, it would be even more hopeless.

"Second brother, let's go out and smoke a cigarette."

Jian Mingzhi thought about going out to enlighten his second brother.

But he didn't expect that Jian Minglang wouldn't appreciate his kindness at all.

He just looked at him coldly and turned to walk toward the guest room.

Usually, Jian Yue stayed in that room when she came, and Jian Mingfan stayed there when he came.

Now no one was fighting Jian Minglang for it, and then they heard a bang as the heavy door closed.

Li Yan hummed at Zhou Andong's back as he stood in front of the window and came to the guest room door to knock.

"Minglang, it's your mother, open the door."

"I'm a bit tired." Jian Minglang's muffled voice came from inside: "I'm going to sleep for a while, don't disturb me."

The old man sighed, stood up, and walked toward the study; he was truly a bit disappointed in Jian Minglang.

Jian Qiu also stood up, looked at Jian Yulan, and asked with a blink of her eyes: "Eldest Aunt, why is your complexion so bad? Is something uncomfortable?"

Gu Minglan smiled and took over the conversation: "Your eldest aunt's heart is a bit uncomfortable; maybe there's a problem with her heart, and she should go to the hospital to take a look."
