After interrogation, it was found that there was nothing wrong with the two of them and they were released on the same day. After the mother and son came out, they immediately went to seek help from Lao Chen. Lao Chen asked Wang Shan, but Wang Shan didn't know anything about it. Because the scene was busy, he couldn't get through to Yang Liufang, so he didn't care about it. Lao Chen reported to Yanhua and Li Tongfu, and the two asked Lawyer Liu to handle it, but Lao Zhou's wife and son saw that no one was working, so they came to Yanhua's office and cried. Yanhua had no choice but to ask Mr. Li to come over and deal with it, so there was a scene where Yang Liufang heard her crying on the phone.
The Third Western Conference was not negatively affected at all by an incident such as Lao Zhou being caught selling pornographic discs. It was only due to the Gulf War and the internal strife in the Soviet Union in Eastern European countries that led to the overall downturn of the world economy. In addition, almost all countries, led by the United States, have proposed an economic blockade on our country at the United Nations to curb the further development of China, which has achieved initial results in reform and opening up. The world and our domestic economy have been seriously affected. As a result, the current Western Conference, despite inviting Cuba and Pakistan, two "iron buddies" who opposed the US blockade of our country in the United Nations, to help out, compared with the second Western Conference, sales have dropped a lot, and the overall contract The amount plus the amount of derivative contracts is less than 400 million yuan. In order to hold this Xixi Fair, the venue was rebuilt from scratch in the Provincial People's Hall, with the local government and merchants investing more than 150 million yuan. However, at the summary meeting, the leaders of the Ministry of Commerce and the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government encouraged everyone that in such a harsh economic environment, it is really valuable to achieve such results.
At the end of the summary meeting, the social practice group from Zhejiang University also concluded its week-long social practice and was about to bid farewell to Xizhou, a heavy industrial city in the northwest that has been striving hard in the reform and opening up. The leaders of the Youth League Provincial Committee, the Minister of Academic Affairs and Engineering of Xizhou University and the Secretary of the Youth League Committee came to see him off. Through her wonderful performance at the Western Conference, Liu Xia received the "Outstanding Volunteer of the Third Western Conference" certificate issued by the provincial government. All the leaders also knew that she was Yang Liufang's sister. When they were seeing off at the station, Yang Liufang and Northwest Feng also rushed over. The train left at one o'clock in the afternoon, but Northwest Feng was nervous about the follow-up reporting work of the Western Conference, so he only left the station at eleven o'clock. When the two arrived in a hurry, all the classmates and teachers from the practice group had already boarded the bus. Only Liu Xia was holding a gift box and looking around on the platform, anxiously waiting for the arrival of her brother and sister-in-law. Seeing the two people approaching in a hurry, he immediately ran up to them and handed the gift to Northwest Feng.
"Sister-in-law, the four elderly people in my family asked me to buy this, and asked me to invite you to go home for the Spring Festival."
"Ouch, you're spending money indiscriminately as a student." As he said this, he took out his wallet from the bag on his shoulder. Only then did he realize that he had forgotten his wallet when he left. He immediately took off the watch from his wrist and grabbed Liu Xia's hand was brought to her.
"Xiaoxia, we came in a hurry and didn't prepare any gifts. I guess you don't care what you bought from us. My dad bought this for you when he went to Switzerland for an inspection. Say hello to the elderly at home for me. Don't be busy during the Spring Festival. If so, your brother and I will definitely go back." The two hugged again while talking. Then she hugged Yang Liufang again. During the hug, Liu Xia whispered in Yang Liufang's ear:
"Brother, I actually like you. But now I wish you well and wish you happiness." After saying that, he turned and left. Yang Liufang was shocked and stood stupidly, letting the wind brought by the train start to mess up his hair. .
Yang Liufang's thoughts were racing, and the car ran a red light on the road. Fortunately, it was lunch break, and there were few cars and few people. However, Beifeng still scolded him distressedly and asked him if he was too tired. Yang Liufang answered vaguely.
Yang Liufang sent Beifeng back to the provincial TV station. He returned to the hotel in despair, covered his head with a quilt, twisted his body, and cried loudly. Goodbye, youth. Goodbye, that childhood sweetheart relationship.
Yang Liufang was worried that Northwest Feng would find out that he had cried and had a misunderstanding, so he went back to the furniture factory that day. The next day, the president of the Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative asked Yanhua to inform Yang Liufang to go with him to the General Supply and Marketing Cooperative for a meeting. When he arrived, the leaders of each supply and marketing cooperative were already in place in the large conference room on the second floor of the headquarter. Yang Liufang saw that the last seat was empty, so he bowed to everyone at the door and sat there. Looking at the meeting agenda on the table, the first item is about the problem of vacant store leases due to rising rents in the Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and then there are the management issues of the Xiguan underground shopping mall, and the summer ceiling replacement plan of the Xizhou Wholesale Market.
Yang Liufang knew that rents at Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative stores were rising, but it had nothing to do with him. Although he leased the largest area, he owed them building materials and counters on credit during the construction of the underground shopping mall, and the payment covered three years of rent. It doesn't expire until August next year. Mainly those retail investors outside his hardware store and the current home appliance world, because Yang Liufang's auction of shops was well known and the prices were high, while the initial rent of the original shops was very cheap. In order to avoid serious damage to state-owned assets, the Supply and Marketing Cooperative tripled the rent of its stores after communicating with the Provincial Price Bureau. The merchants who were doing well paid the rent, while those who were not doing well stopped renewing their leases. Some of them were left vacant, and no one was interested in renting them from outside because of the high prices. But the price is set by the provincial price bureau and approved by the provincial government meeting, and it is difficult to overturn it. Besides, the merchant has already paid it, so it cannot be refunded.
There is also an inertia in state-owned enterprises, that is, it is no problem to sell a product for 100 yuan, and it is no problem to sell it for more than 100 yuan, but if you sell it for more than 100 yuan, there is a problem if you sell it for less than 100 yuan. Some people will question: What Whether the relevant personnel received kickbacks for selling at low prices, etc. These are the reasons for the relevant personnel to be investigated and questioned, so no one is willing to bear the charge of loss of state-owned assets.
Everyone discussed and discussed at the meeting. The problem was obvious, but no one touched on the essence. Finally, the president of Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative asked whether Liufang Industrial Group had sold the vacant shops at the price set by the Provincial Price Bureau and the General Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Willingness to rent. Yang Liufang was silent for a while, and he had no idea what to do with renting these shops. Unlike the previous closed-circuit television project, which was later stopped, Home Appliance World was built under the joint planning of fellow villagers. The current economic environment is not good, people are not willing to consume, and they don’t know what to sell at all. Besides, Wang Shan and Lao Chen are experts in the group company on market supply and demand. He has to go back and discuss with the team before making a decision. After thinking over and over again, I proposed my idea at the meeting.
"Dear leaders, thank you for your care and trust in our group. Based on our market operating experience, I am willing to rent, but I have no idea what to do. I still need to go back and discuss with the management team before I can give an answer. .”
Then the meeting discussed other topics. Since they had nothing to do with him, he didn't pay attention. He just wanted to get some work for the group's construction and decoration company from replacing the ceiling of the wholesale market, so he mentioned it. I asked whether the group company could participate in the bidding for this project. After discussion at the meeting, the leaders felt that the group company had nothing to do with the wholesale market and unanimously decided that they could participate in the bidding.
Work meetings in state-owned enterprises are always long and smoky, and there are endless rounds of tea. Yang Liufang accompanied the last person, and did not dare to leave early even if the meeting was not over. He had to smoke second-hand smoke, listen to everyone's speeches, and then vote by show of hands. The phone rang at four o'clock, and it was from Northwest Feng. When he came, he called Northwest Feng and told her that he was coming to the General Supply and Marketing Corporation for a meeting. But she couldn't answer the phone at the meeting, so she covered the mouth of the phone, connected the phone, and asked her to listen to the leader's speech. The meeting lasted until five o'clock. As soon as he left the conference room, Yang Liufang called back. As soon as the call was connected, he heard: "Dear, the meeting is over." Officially Northwest Feng's voice came from downstairs.
Everyone who was walking out of the conference room heard it. Yang Liufang hurried down the stairs and saw Northwest Feng answering the phone in the lobby. Yang Liufang went over to take her bag, and several leaders and the president of Chengbei Club also came down from upstairs.
"Is your wife coming to pick you up?"
"Yeah." Both of them lowered their heads in embarrassment.
"The tutor is very good." President Li came down from upstairs and saw Yang Liufang helping Beifeng hold his bag and greet the leaders. "I'll treat you to a meal?"
"President, no, no, I'd better invite everyone."
"Everyone, leaders, let's come together." Northwest Feng, as the hostess, generously invited the leaders. The leaders are accustomed to eating clean canteens and delicacies from the mountains and seas, and they don't like the food in the supply and marketing headquarters canteen. But the headquarters cafeteria is a state-owned enterprise after all, and there is no way to change it, so I endured it. When I heard that Yang Liufang invited me to eat, of course I was happy. So someone recommended a nearby restaurant with delicious food. In order to avoid suspicion, they deliberately chose not to choose a nearby restaurant and drove there together.
During the dinner, the men talked about cars and official anecdotes, while the women talked about cosmetics and jewelry. All of them were middle-aged beauties who were able to hold the position of branch president of the supply and marketing cooperative. They also instigated Beifeng on how to discipline men. Everyone laughed after hearing this. The president of one branch is quite knowledgeable about jewelry. When he saw the necklace on Bei Feng's neck and the bracelet on his hand, he was particularly surprised: "Ah, this is from the jewelry store of People's Mall, right? This set costs 28888, Mr. Yang You really dote on your wife." Everyone at the table was surprised after hearing this, and looked at Yang Liufang one after another. Yang Liufang and Beifeng were also surprised. They didn't expect that a set of jewelry, including a necklace and a bracelet, was so expensive.
"Ah! President Liu, why is this jewelry so expensive? We really don't know." The more they didn't care, the more envious everyone became. There was another buzzing discussion at the dinner table for a while. Yang Liufang was so drunk that he started to doze off, and then they dispersed. Northwest Feng drove and the two returned to the hotel together.
"My dear, this Xiaoxia is still a student. I can't bear to spend so much money to buy me such expensive things. How about I return it tomorrow?"
"Fool, why are you backing it? Just keep what I gave you, so as not to offend my sister's good intentions." The two parked the car and walked into the room. Northwest Feng settled down with Yang Liufang and was about to leave, but was stopped by Yang Liufang. He hugged her from behind and fell onto the bed.
