After the kidnapping case of Guo Xiaojing was successfully solved, Yuan Xuansong and other three kidnappers were all arrested. In the subsequent interrogation, the main culprit Yuan Xuansong admitted that he was the mastermind and had nothing to do with the factory director Niu Tieli.

However, in the process of collecting evidence, the police found ironclad evidence that Yuan Xuansong and Niu Tieli had spoken on the phone during the abduction, so they invited Niu Tieli to make relevant inquiries.

Under the conclusive evidence, Niu Tieli had to admit that he and Yuan Xuansong were indeed on the phone. However, after he confessed that he got the news, he tried his best to persuade the other party to give up the illegal and criminal act of kidnapping, and urged him to release the hostage Guo Xiaojing as soon as possible.

He also defended that when he was about to report to the police, the case had been quickly solved, so he did not take the initiative to inform him of the situation in order to avoid getting into trouble.

Zheng Baisheng finally said: "Niu Tieli is very lucky, Yuan Xuansong carried everything over, otherwise he would have to go to prison for a few years."

Geng Wenyang said with concern: "Then Niu Tieli is so fine? The suspected superiors who colluded with outsiders to embezzle state-owned assets must be investigated, right? Isn't it true that a bad person should not be spared, nor a good person should be wronged?"

"Is this the matter...... Zheng Baisheng smiled and said, "Because of discipline, I can't tell you."

"Okay." Geng Wenyang also knew that Zheng Baisheng had a lot of rules, and the senior brother was an extremely disciplined person, so it was better for him not to ask.

Zheng Baisheng said: "Wen Yang, the business situation of enterprises in the city has not been much better in the past two years. Cotton mills are losing money, and it looks like they will have to close down a few more this year."

He touched his forehead and said worriedly: "Cotton mills, weaving mills, printing and dyeing factories, garment factories, bed sheet factories, woolen mills, etc., these related factories are all labor-intensive enterprises, and none of them can have thousands of employees. Once so many workers are laid off, we are under a lot of pressure!"

Geng Wenyang helped him come up with an idea and said, "These cotton spinning enterprises you mentioned have upstream and downstream relationships in production. I suggest taking advantage of the opportunity that everyone can barely hold on, and integrate with one or two companies with decent strength as the leader. In this way, it can not only streamline the supply of raw materials and product sales of enterprises, but also reduce the number of management personnel who eat idle meals, thereby reducing the production costs of enterprises, improving their competitiveness, and saving them from being broken by the market."

"That's a good idea." Zheng Baisheng sighed, "But it's really hard to implement."

The integration of the interests and relationships of all aspects of the enterprise is not an easy thing that can be done by lip service, and there are many internal and external contradictions that need to be resolved.

Geng Wenyang has acquired many large and small companies, and he feels this deeply, so he said: "Instead of sitting still, it is better to give it a go. In the current situation, most of these companies have a dead end. If everyone joins forces, they may also have a fight with those township enterprises in other provinces. Where to go, only you have to make up your own mind."

Zheng Baisheng said tentatively, "Wen Yang, are you interested...... Acquire one or two cotton mills or weaving mills?"

Geng Wenyang shook his head like a rattle and said, "No! Not! Not! I'm not interested in that!"

"Didn't you buy the Chengguan Garment Factory last year and buy the new factory of Garment No. 3." Zheng Baisheng persuaded: "If you buy one or two cotton textile cloth printing and dyeing enterprises, won't you be able to smooth out the industrial chain?"

Geng Wenyang smiled bitterly: "Senior brother, I just want to make a quick money by building a terminal garment manufacturer, and I really don't have the slightest interest in upstream raw material factories. You'd better stop beating my mind and think of something else."

Zheng Baisheng saw that his attitude was so resolute, even if he was unwilling, he had no choice but to give up this idea.

The next day is the second day of the Lunar New Year, which is the day when married women in Baicheng go to their parents' homes to pay New Year's greetings. Early in the morning of the same day, Geng Wenyang drove a Lincoln Continental sedan and rushed to Haizhou with his wife and children.

In the mid-to-late nineties, there were not too many ordinary people who owned private cars, so the traffic on the highway was scarce, and it was far less than the spectacular scene of congestion during the Spring Festival holiday in later generations.

It only took two hours for a family of three to arrive at the third faculty dormitory of Haizhou University. Gu Peiteng was very lucky, he originally had to queue up

Waiting for the welfare room, he benefited from the school's policy of favoring overseas talents, and it was difficult to get a two-room unit of more than 60 square meters.

However, it is a pity that this two-room unit is an old house in the 80s handed over by a former teacher, and it is still an old-fashioned design with no two bedrooms and no living room, and the use of space is very wasteful.

There are two south-facing bedrooms, one for Gu Peiteng and his wife, and the other for Gu Bingming's family, and the home can't help but be a little congested.

Fortunately, Shi Zhiqiao has no parents, so she regards Gu Bingming and Gan Rui as her own father and mother, thus avoiding the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship that is most prone to conflicts.

Shi Zhiqiao has just been pregnant for more than a month, and her figure is still not pregnant. But Gu Bingming and his wife have been looking forward to their grandson for many years, so they attach great importance to her and take care of her carefully.

So when Zhuang Zhuang saw his aunt and ran over shouting, he was grabbed by Gan Rui and shouted, "Don't go over! Don't scare your aunt!"

Zhuang Zhuang is still a child, and he doesn't understand why his grandmother looks like a fierce and vicious person to him, so he hides in his mother's arms and whimpers aggrievedly.

Gan Ruolan naturally loved her son, and said a little dissatisfied: "Mom, what are you yelling at? Look at the strong and scared."

After all, his grandson is an outsider, and it is not worth mentioning compared to his own grandson. Gan Rui said confidently: "Children don't know the severity, what if something happens to Xiao Shi?"

Shi Zhiqiao didn't care, and opened her arms at Zhuang Zhuang and said, "Zhuang Zhuang! Come, come to my aunt's side! I'll coax you to play!"

Zhuang Zhuang looked at Gan Rui with palpitations, saw her unhappy face, and asked his mother in a low voice, "Mom......?"

"Go ahead!" Gan Ruolan said distressedly, "Walk over slowly, don't bump into your aunt."

The child didn't understand what the adults meant, so Zhuang Zhuang walked slowly to Shi Zhiqiao step by step according to his mother's instructions.

Geng Wenyang looked very unhappy, although he couldn't say anything, he said in his heart: "My mother-in-law won't wait to see my son when she sees that she wants to have her own grandson. This face also became too fast, and it was a heavy blow to Zhuang Zhuang."

He saw that there was no place to eat at home, and from Gan Rui's expression, he didn't see the enthusiasm to keep them for lunch, so he changed his mind and said, "Mom, let's stay for a while and leave, a friend here invites us to eat at noon."

"Oh? Really?" Gan Rui was overjoyed when she heard this. She was worried about how to entertain her daughter's family, and when she heard that her son-in-law still had a party at noon, she couldn't help but feel relieved: "That's okay, then I won't leave you to eat."

The daughter and son-in-law took their grandson to run hundreds of miles to greet themselves, but they didn't even care about lunch. Gu Bingming couldn't help it, and discussed, "It's better to eat at home for the New Year?"

Seeing that her husband was talkative, Gan Rui turned her head and glared at him fiercely. Gan Ruolan looked at it in her eyes, and her heart was as cold as pouring cold water.
