Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 802, Making a Scene
Yang Xiaole ate breakfast and looked at Xizi with a smile, asking, "Where are you going today?"

Xizi thought for a moment and said, "I'll go to Xiaobao and Chunlin's house today to see their parents."

"Okay, by the way, how are Chunlin's parents doing now?"

"I'm back now. I'll first learn to work in a factory, then I'll teach in primary and secondary schools. I don't know when I'll be transferred back yet!"

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"Yeah, that's good. At least it's not like before."

"It's all thanks to you. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to join the army. Now that the feedback has been reported to the local authorities, saying that Chunlin is a child who can be educated, his parents have come back."

Xizi was there, laughing and talking.

Yang Xiaole didn't say anything after hearing this.

That's definitely the situation now; otherwise, we'd still be staying in the countryside!
After lunch, Yang Xiaole and Qu Ying rode their bikes to work together.

……

I returned to work and resumed normal duties.

I've been staying at work for several days now, and the Chinese New Year is just around the corner.

He was processing departmental documents that day.

He was called into Li Zhenghong's office.

"Director Li! You wanted to see me?"

"Yes, I need to talk to you about something!"

Li Zhenghong chuckled and pointed to the table in front of him, saying with a smile, "Sit down!"

Yang Xiaole sat down.

Li Zhenghong handed him a cigarette, lit it, and smiled at him, saying, "I have two things to discuss with you. Comrade Sun Xu's job is being transferred. Do you have any thoughts on that?"

Yang Xiaole was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

He naturally recognized Sun Xu; he was a deputy director who had been parachuted in after Wei Feng and the others left, and was at the same level as Yu Yongsheng.

There were two people at the time, and the other one was Wang Hai from the Light Industry Import and Export Company.

He is also one of Li Zhenghong's people.

This is a direct question asking if he has made any progress!

Another step forward?
With so many senior colleagues in the unit, is it really appropriate to put a newcomer in this position?

Then, out of curiosity, he asked, "Comrade Sun Xu was transferred so quickly? What happened to him?"

The other person is really not old, not even forty.

Being transferred at this point means either making a mistake or making progress.

Li Zhenghong said helplessly, "His situation is a bit special, so please don't ask about that. Just ask what you think. Of the several people who went abroad before, we saved the most foreign exchange, and it was a huge sum of money. This is a great achievement, and it has only just been approved."

Then he smiled and said, "Don't feel guilty! Tell me your thoughts!"

Yang Xiaole was speechless for a moment. What could he possibly be thinking?

However, this is just one part of the process.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "I will obey the organization's arrangements!"

Li Zhenghong smiled and nodded: "Yes, the organization will be talking to you in the next few days. So, do you have any good suggestions for someone to replace you in your current position?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaole pondered for a moment and said, "Jiang Yan, I'll go with her! Jiang Yan is a seasoned comrade."

"Okay! I understand the situation."

Li Zhenghong said with a smile.

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly upon hearing this, thinking it wasn't surprising.

After Wei Feng was purged, Li Zhenghong would definitely promote some people from his own faction, which is normal.

Those who could be promoted have basically all been promoted.

Now that Sun Xu is being transferred, it's understandable to give him a chance to advance his career.

But he felt there must be other reasons.

really.

Li Zhenghong smiled and said, "Last year you saved the country so much foreign exchange, so Vice President Wang asked you to go to him to report on your work!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaole suddenly realized what was happening.

It turns out it's Old Wang!
Not surprising then.

In the eyes of Li Zhenghong and his group, this was something that Vice President Wang had noticed.

After all, Lao Wang is now in charge of economic work, and this area belongs to the other party's jurisdiction.

It is considered one of the highest-ranking positions in economic work.

Then, pulling himself out of his thoughts, he asked in surprise, "Vice President Wang wants me to go to him to report on my work? When?"

"They just called. Get there before 12 o'clock. You only have 20 minutes! Remember how you talk when you get there. Your company will send a car to take you there, and someone will pick you up and take you inside."

Yang Xiaole pondered for a moment after hearing this.

"okay, I get it."

The two then chatted there for a while.

After a while, Yang Xiaole left the office.

Back in his office, Yang Xiaole was filled with curiosity.

"Why does Old Wang want to see me? If there's a mission, he could have just been notified by someone else."

Yang Xiaole felt a little strange.

But it would be good to meet.

Now that Old Wang has come up here, during the Spring Festival, his residence is no longer a place he can freely visit.

The other party is quite different from Feng Guanhua.

Meeting Feng Guanhua was troublesome enough; Old Wang's job meant that his office and residence were not places that ordinary people could enter.

Even he is the same.

Judging by the time, the old man must have taken time during his lunch break.

I ignored it and focused on the work at hand.

After finishing my work, I checked the time and realized it was almost time to go, so I made a phone call.

After making the arrangements, I packed my things and went out.

Arriving at the locomotive crew's location, we boarded a car and headed straight for a certain sea.

This is definitely not a place for ordinary people to get into.

After being questioned repeatedly, Yang Xiaole was finally taken to a quaint, antique-style guest room to wait.

As for the driver, he didn't even get through the first gate.

……

We waited for a full forty minutes, during which the water was changed several times, before we finally heard footsteps coming from the doorway.

Old Wang is here.

It has to be said, the old man is really quite busy.

Just now, I met with several people.

The door was not closed, but there were guards at the entrance.

Old Wang dismissed the people outside and walked over alone.

"Hello, Chief!"

Yang Xiaole greeted him with a smile after he came in.

Old Wang, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, came in and said with a smile, "You've been waiting quite a while, haven't you!"

"Fortunately!"

"Well, sit down!"

Old Wang smiled and gestured to him.

He then sat down on a round-backed chair on the side.

"Come on, smoke!"

The old man took out cigarettes from his bag, pulled one out for himself, and placed the half-pack of Zhonghua cigarettes directly on the coffee table.

Yang Xiaole smiled.

But they didn't take it.

Seeing this, Old Wang didn't insist.

He then said, "I'm too busy right now. There are more people watching me since I came up here, so I haven't had time to look for you. Last time you saved so much foreign exchange, which was a great achievement. Unfortunately, due to special circumstances, your application has only been approved now."

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "It's only right."

What he did deserves praise, but it's not enough to get him promoted directly.

All I can say is that it's paving the way for his future.

After all, once you reach a certain level, you'll often get to take on big missions, and if you make a contribution, you can level up immediately.

That would be really troublesome.

I can only say that I will choose it as a priority when needed.

I was able to make progress about a year ahead of schedule this time, all thanks to Old Man Wang.

Seeing this, Old Wang smiled and said, "And the information you passed on before was also very useful. Our companies outside have achieved good results in gold, oil, and Japanese yen foreign exchange." Yang Xiaole smiled upon hearing this.

There is still some activity.

The other party was naturally referring to the decoupling of gold from the US dollar, rising oil prices, and the floating exchange rate of the Japanese yen.

These factors have a significant impact on large-scale transactions.

"Sir, I just wanted to do my part, however small."

Old Wang looked at him with a complicated expression.

He then said, "There are some things I can't tell you right now! I'm sorry to trouble you."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaole immediately understood.

The reason is that my husband's health is getting worse and he has already been hospitalized. Calculated, he has less than a year left.

This is why that person returned to the public eye.

The situation is complicated.

Ordinary people seem much calmer and more composed than before, but in some places, things are still turbulent.

The undercurrent is surging.

Old Wang has a higher status, but for the same reason, more eyes are focused on him, and the people watching him are of a higher rank.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, he smiled and said, "Commander, did you call me here today because there's something you need?"

Old Wang nodded slightly: "There's nothing specific, I just wanted to talk about your thoughts on easing tensions with Da Piao Liang's side!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole pondered.

These old men usually speak with a purpose.

For a moment, I didn't know what the other person was thinking.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Hide your talents and bide your time, accumulate strength and unleash it later; when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits."

Old Wang was taken aback by this completely irrelevant answer.

The question was about Da Piao Liang.

How did we get to this?

With a quick thought, he instantly understood what he meant.

Then he laughed and said, "Oh, why do you say that!"

He already knew, but he needed to verify it.

After thinking for a moment, Yang Xiaole said, "In the current struggle between the Russian bear and the bald eagle, the bald eagle is clearly on the defensive. Its isolation of us over the years has had no effect. Seeing us gradually becoming stronger, it is inevitable that it will try to win us over."

……

Therefore, it is very necessary for us to keep a low profile and bide our time at present...

But both sides harbor treacherous ambitions; this is essentially a strategy of alliances and counter-alliances. Once one side falls, the other will have the opportunity to act, and will surely continue to do so…

Old Wang listened attentively, nodding gently from time to time.

In my heart, I was filled with admiration.

Nowadays, when young people mention the Russian bear or the bald eagle, they either get very angry or feel that whoever extends a helping hand is a friend.

Young people rarely have this kind of vision.

Such remarks are frequently brought up in the discussion room.

After listening, he found the answer he was looking for.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, he looked at Yang Xiaole and smiled, "Great! We have an economic analysis team here. Would you be interested in coming to work with us?"

Yang Xiaole smiled upon hearing this: "Sir, I'm quite happy with my current job and have no plans to change it for the time being!"

Although Old Wang had already guessed, he couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed.

Then he smiled and said, "Alright, do your job well at your current company!"

The matter was not mentioned again.

After chatting for a while, the old man checked the time and smiled, "Alright, it's getting late, let's call it a day!"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole nodded: "Okay! I'll be going now."

He agreed and stood up.

He was then escorted out.

Old Wang watched Yang Xiaole's departing figure, pondered for a while, and then got up and left.

……

After Yang Xiaole came out, he found the company driver, got into the car, and left.

Only a very few people knew that he had been summoned to report on his work.

In the following days, someone from the organization spoke with him.

It's naturally a matter of job transfer.

……

Now that it's not Chinese New Year, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xizi took the train to northern Shaanxi because of time constraints.

Zhao Xiue and her family of three were left to live at home.

After the New Year, his appointment came, and his office was moved from the pharmaceutical and chemical import and export company to the main building.

Jiang Yan also took over the pharmaceutical and chemical import and export company.

He simply took Zheng Ruiyang to the department's office, since he was used to it.

Chemical and pharmaceutical industries are now under his supervision, and he holds the same rank as Yu Yongsheng.

After the Lunar New Year, I took some time to visit Hong Kong Island.

He then led a team to Albania to complete a 30 million aid mission.

This time, both the technology and equipment came from China.

Those who went were all key personnel from the subordinate units.

……

The task in Albania needs to be completed within three years, but he doesn't need to stay there indefinitely.

Xizi has been admitted to Renmin University, and will be studying in the School of Social Sciences, which is a humanities-related field.

This surprised Yang Xiaole.

At the end of the year, Yang Xiaole passed through Hong Kong Island and returned to Beijing.

When he returned, he received news of someone's death.

……

July 76!
Yang Xiaole was at work, but he was very restless.

In about ten days, that devastating earthquake will strike.

28th, 3:42 PM.

He remembered the exact time.

After all, he had seen that movie before.

He has also been spreading the news through various external channels recently.

In addition, his newspapers on Hong Kong Island also launched a barrage of attacks there.

Although he faced countless doubts, Yang Xiaole didn't care.

"Dingling bell~"

The phone rang.

Yang Xiaole picked up the phone immediately.

It was Li Zhenghong calling; someone was looking for him.

Yang Xiaole was puzzled for a moment, but still followed along.

When I arrived at the place, there were already two serious-looking people standing there.

Upon seeing the other person, Yang Xiaole knew who it was.

Old Wang's bodyguard.

It's probably something he did in Hong Kong that got back to Lao Wang, who's now anxiously coming over to ask him about it.

"Hello, Comrade Yang Xiaole, please come with us. The commander wants to see you!"

After the other person came over, they said something expressionless.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole looked at Li Zhenghong.

He then nodded: "Okay!"

Having agreed, I followed the other person out of the office.

We got into the car and headed straight for a certain place.

After arriving at the destination, we waited for quite a while before Old Wang hurriedly came over.

"We were in a meeting just now!"

After arriving, Old Wang offered a rare explanation.

He then asked anxiously, "What's going on with the newspapers in Hong Kong? They're saying there's an earthquake? What's the situation?!"

Because the noise was too loud.
