Huang Guanyuan was also at the construction site, and the principal of the elementary school behind him was reporting something to him.
"This is the only way for students to get to school. The current construction at the construction site will cause safety hazards for students to enter and exit. We need to find a way to solve it."
"I asked the construction manager to arrange for workers to use isolation boards to build a safe passage on the right side. From now on, students will use the safe passage."
Huang Guanyuan went to find the construction manager and saw Yin Yuan.
Yin Yuan introduced Sun Zhucai and others to him.
"They will design the drawings after the survey. I have already paid the design fee."
He talked to Lao Huang about this art exhibition.
"One first prize and one third prize, Xiao Yin, you can do it. From now on you will be a famous painter..."
Yin Yuan said: "The winners of this exhibition are eligible to study at the Provincial Academy of Fine Arts for two months and can apply to join the Provincial Artists Association. During the study period, famous painters will teach and provide on-site guidance. After learning the painting skills, they will definitely make great progress."
Huang Guanyuan was happy for him: "Such a good opportunity should be taken advantage of. Just go and if there is anything at the construction company or the commercial street, I can contact you on the phone to discuss it, and it will not be affected."
Sun Zhucai learned from them about his superiors' requirements for commercial street development.
"A leisure, entertainment and cultural street should have bookstores, clothing, small commodities, gyms, billiard rooms, bars, even electrotherapy centers, and supermarkets. Therefore, a three-story large shopping mall should be built in the center and introduce a certain supermarket brand. Another Various entertainment facilities can be planned on the first floor of the building, a furniture mall on the second floor, a jewelry store on the third floor, etc. The other buildings will be built with seven floors and can be planned and designed according to the terrain. The elementary school and trade union building in the back need to be accessed..."
Yin Yuan told him the specific location.
After lunch he returned to Jiangming.
I told my wife that if two of my paintings won awards at the art exhibition, I could go to the Academy of Fine Arts to study and train for two months.
"Do you think I should go or not?"
"Go, why not go? Why not go with such a good opportunity? You can become a famous painter in the future, and the baby and I will be proud of you."
Yin Yuan told her that two paintings won 6,000 yuan. Magazines solicited submissions and collectors collected them, earning several thousand yuan. The two paintings combined earned more than 10,000 yuan.
Wanting said happily: "My husband will be able to support the family just by painting from now on."
He went to the city defense brigade office building.
Lin Sen and Yin Zaidao happened to be in Cheng Bin's office, talking about something, and deputy team leader Zhang Yiming was also there.
"Captain Yin, you're here just in time. Let's talk about something."
Lin Sen said: "Now the superiors have issued regulations on the management of urban defense brigade personnel, which have specific requirements for some urban defense teams in their work or daily life. From now on, there will be regulations on commuting to and from get off work every day, and those who violate discipline will be punished. .”
He took out a document for several people to study.
Yin Yuan said: "Let me tell you something first."
He told everyone about participating in an art exhibition and winning a prize, and then enrolling in the Academy of Fine Arts to study for two months.
"I may really not have time to deal with the affairs of the city defense brigade in the future, so I submitted my resignation and hope that the leadership will approve it."
Several people were surprised.
"I didn't expect that Xiao Yin, who is also a painter, actually won the first prize. I am very happy and congratulated."
"After two months of special training at the Academy of Fine Arts, you can become a great painter. It seems that there were no famous painters in Jiangming before. From now on, Yin Yuan will be the great painter in Jiangming City."
Cheng Bin also said: "Xiao Yin is not only good at painting, but also very good at Go. My master said that his chess ability should be the best in Jiangming City."
Lin Sen said: "Your master said that Xiao Yin is the best at Go, but he admits that he can't beat Xiao Yin?"
"I went to his house last time to cook, and the master was willing to let me down."
Seeing that they were talking about something else, Yin Yuan reminded him, "What about my resignation?"
Yin Zaidao said to Lin Sen: "Look at this guy who really has no skills at all. He has opened a company, a factory, and now he is a painter. He also wants to study at the Academy of Fine Arts. Or allow him to do it."
Resign? "
Although he knew last year that Yin Yuan had the intention to resign, Lin Sen believed that he could not find anyone more suitable to be the captain, so he always wanted him to continue.
Even now, he was not mentally prepared at all.
At the same time, he also considered that he would go to the Academy of Fine Arts to study for two months. Whether it was for public or private purposes, he might not be suitable for holding this position anymore.
"Okay, if you write a resignation letter to me, we won't be able to prevent you from becoming a great painter, right?"
Yin Yuan wrote the resignation report and handed it to him on the spot.
Lin Sen said: "Let Xiao Guo hold the captain's position for the time being. I will report this matter next time. Anyway, Xiao Guo has been the deputy team leader for several years, and his work performance is obvious."
Yin Yuan also said: "During my time as captain, I mainly relied on Deputy Guo to take charge. Deputy Guo is conscientious and dedicated to his work. He will definitely be better than *** in his role as captain."
Cheng Bin agreed.
He and Guo Yiming have been colleagues for many years, and the two have always had a good relationship.
Yin Yuan took away his personal belongings in the office and handed the office key to Cheng Bin.
"You guys, even if you are not the city defense captain, you can come to the office building often when you are free. We are all friends after all."
Yin Yuan said, "Of course. If the city defense team has something to do in the future, as long as I'm free, I can help. It's no problem to help the city defense team catch a few fugitives when I'm free."
Yin Zaidao said, "Brother Yin, don't you want to join the unit and join the establishment? For example, go to the police station and join the deputy station like Zheng Siyang?"
Yin Yuan said: "It doesn't matter if it's organized or not. I may not be suitable for working within the system. I'm a natural-born individual."
Lin Sen said: "This guy's business is so good that he might not even want to work as a director. In the future, he will become even more popular if he becomes a famous painter."
Yin Yuan said goodbye to them and returned home.
I told my wife that I would resign as captain of the city defense brigade and concentrate on doing my own thing from now on.
"It's better if you don't do it, so that people won't say that you made your fortune by being a city defense captain."
In fact, the captain did make some money, but it is not true that all the wealth earned came from the captain.
If he wants to make money now, it won't be difficult to take the right path.
The mother is holding the little baby in her arms and learning to speak.
"The baby is awake now, isn't it?"
"oh."
Xiaobao seemed to understand what grandma said. He looked at her and made a sound.
"Our little baby is very well-behaved now and doesn't cry anymore, right?"
"Oh, oh ho..."
Wanting looked at it and smiled and said, "Xiaobao can chat with grandma now!"
She held Xiaobao in her arms, and Xiaobao crawled into her arms.
The little hands moved excitedly.
Wanting breastfed the child and told Yin Yuan another thing: "Today, the staff from the neighborhood committee's accounting office came to the villa and handed out some leaflets, saying that the current policy only allows one child. You need to make plans when the child is born. , otherwise you will be fined.”
She pointed to a leaflet on the coffee table.
Yin Yuan naturally knew these policies.
Now that I have a son, I have no plans to have a second child for the time being.
The next day, he took his wife to the health center to get the ring.
I met two female fellow villagers, Qiu Hailian and Lu Yanmei, at the entrance of the health center.
The two of them lined up at the door. A row of women were in a panic, with a look of fear on their faces.
"What are you two doing here?"
The two of them didn't see Yin Yuan for a while, but they turned around after hearing his voice.
"Yin Yuan, it turns out to be you."
Lu Yanmei was ecstatic inside. She knew that Yin Yuan was the captain of the city defense team, and all the city defense team members outside were under his management. She was secretly glad that she was lucky today.
She told Yin Yuan: "Today, the family planning office and the city defense team went door to door to investigate married women who did not have temporary residence permits, family planning certificates or birth permit certificates.
Suggest planning after criticism and education. "
Yin Yuan knew that Lu Yanmei had given birth to two sons, and Qiu Hailian had also given birth to a girl.
He said, "Didn't you give birth to a child? Do you still want to have one?"
Lu Yanmei said: "I have two sons, and I don't want to have any more. I've already had the procedure at home, but I lost my birth certificate."
Yin Yuan said: "Since you have already had the ring, you can ask the doctor to check it again and ask them to get a new one."
At this time he saw Hu Hao.
I knew he was leading the team.
Hu Hao also saw him and took the initiative to come over and say hello to him.
"Captain Yin, why are you here?"
He thought it was someone who was not smart enough to drag Yin and Yuan over.
Yin Yuan said: "I brought my wife here to undergo the ring procedure and actively cooperate with your work."
He said that I resigned from my position as captain of the city defense brigade today and was going to study at the Academy of Fine Arts for two months.
Hu Hao was startled when he heard this.
Others would only dream of having such a good job, but he had to quit several times.
Yin Yuan pointed at Lu Yanmei and said to him: "My fellow countryman, she has already had a ring at home, but the ring card has been lost. Let the doctor check her. If it is true, can he get a replacement card for her."
Hu Hao said: "It's absolutely okay."
He asked Lu Yanmei to go in with him, and she could leave after applying for a replacement certificate.
Qiu Hailian begged Yin Yuan in a low voice: "Can you tell me something? My Shujun said that he just gave birth to a daughter, and he must find a way to have a son. Alas, I can't hold my head up without a son in my hometown."
Yin Yuan said, "I can't help you with this matter. Look, my wife has only given birth to a baby for two months, and she still doesn't take the initiative to come to the health center to get the ring."
At this time, Wanting went to the medical room to get the IUD, got the IUD certificate and walked out.
Yin Yuan saw her frowning and looking unhappy.
"Are you okay? Aren't you feeling uncomfortable?" He asked with concern.
"It's okay, let's go back."
The atmosphere here is not good. Some women are talking in low voices, some are wiping tears secretly, and some are trying to escape.
Several city defense team members at the door strictly checked people going out.
Lin Wanting was walking in front, and a city defense team member stopped her.
"The woman has already made a plan. She can only go out after showing her ring certificate."
Yin Yuan asked coldly: "Where are the men?"
"Men who undergo sterilization also have a sterilization certificate."
Hu Hao walked out and scolded the team member: "How dare you say this to Captain Yin. Captain Yin came to the ring with his wife. Get out of the way."
The attitude of several team members immediately became respectful.
Yin Yuan was curious: "Are all the men and women who came in and out of the health center today here for planning?"
"Basically."
"What if, like me, I came here with my wife and when I leave, the man doesn't have a sterilization certificate? The couple shouldn't have to make plans at the same time, right?"
"No, as long as one of the couple has made a plan. If you come together, you just need to prove that they are husband and wife. Bring your marriage certificate. If one of you has made a plan, it will be fine."
Yin and Yuan left the health center.
Just as he was about to drive away, two brothers, Chen Shuqing and Chen Shujun, who were hiding in a corner, came to his car.
In particular, Chen Shujun was extremely anxious.
"Yin Yuan, help me get my wife out of the health center? You are the captain of the city defense. It's just a matter of words. If it's done, I can give you some money."
Yin Yuan said: "I am no longer the captain of the city defense brigade, so I am no longer able to help you. Look, my wife has only had a baby for two months, and she still doesn't make the same plans."
Chen Shuqing nodded and said, "Yes, just now I saw the daughter-in-law of the owner of the garment factory also went in. Even the locals were spared, and we, the migrant workers from out of town, wanted to do something special."
Chen Shujun said: "I'm afraid that fool would go for a sterilization instead of an IUD, which would be troublesome.
She quarreled with me a few days ago. When talking about this matter, she even said that she might as well just get a sterilization, saying that some women would have bad reactions after getting the sterilization. "
He thinks that if the ring is put on, it can be removed without spending much money.
If it is a ligation, surgery will be required, which will cost more.
Yin Yuan knows the current policy. If you give birth to a child, you only need to go to the hospital.
After several births, a sterilization will be required.
Of course, except if you ask for it yourself.
At this time, Lu Yanmei came out of the health center, and Chen Shujun hurriedly asked her about Qiu Hailian's condition.
"We're leading the team to Sheung Wan. They'll be out soon."
Chen Shuqing on the side was still scolding his younger brother in a low voice: "You guy, if you want your wife to have another baby, you should get a sterilization yourself."
"You are talking nonsense again. I went to get a sterilization. How can my wife have a second child?"
"Do you understand that the child will be born in a pregnant woman's womb? Anyway, when the child comes out, he will bear your surname."
Lu Yanmei grabbed Chen Shuqing's ears and cursed: "Are you still talking humanly? My brother, you still have bad ideas..."
Yin Yuan smiled and said, "Your family has a clear tree, and you have an idea in your heart."
Chatting with these people can sometimes ruin your outlook.
At this time, he saw many of the men outside waiting for their women.
After they returned home, they heard Xiaobao crying from a distance.
The little guy must be hungry.
Grandma used a bottle to mix milk powder, but after taking a few sips, he felt the taste was not right and refused to drink it again.
As soon as his mother came back, he stopped crying.
Zhou Yafei is still talking about Yin and Yuan.
"Why rush to make plans? After the baby is one year old, we will think of ways to have another child, whether it is a son or a daughter. When a child grows up without brothers and sisters, he will be very lonely. If you have brothers and sisters, you can do anything. Let’s discuss it…”
The old lady also knew that the policy was like this when she was in her hometown. She probably thought that with her son's ability, this matter could be different from others.
Yin Yuan patiently explained to his mother for a long time before she understood.
He was lucky that his first birth was a son.
