Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 808, The Time Has Come When We Need You

The next day, Yang Xiaole went to work, thought for a moment, and then took out a pen to write a letter to Lao Wang.

I hope he will take this seriously.

Although it's impossible to completely eliminate it, those who impersonate others to attend school are truly despicable.

After finishing, put it in an envelope and have Zheng Ruiyang deliver it to the reception room near Xinhua Gate.

I'll just leave it at that.

……

A few days later, before Yang Xiaole could find any evidence, the daily newspaper published an editorial about the impersonation incident.

Meanwhile, major radio stations in rural areas also began broadcasting the message.

For a moment, many students began to feel nervous.

There is still no such thing as Chinese New Year.

Normal work resumes after the Chinese New Year.

The first month.

Zhao Xiu'e also arrived in Beijing.

……

After getting off work, Yang Xiaole returned home.

Zhao Xiue is already at home.

"Second brother!"

Zhao Xiue was wiping away tears when she saw him coming, but she still greeted him.

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "What's there to cry about? When problems arise, we should solve them. Xizi, take your younger siblings to school tomorrow and tell them that their admission notices were stolen."

Upon hearing this, Xizi frowned and asked, "But, do they believe it?"

"Don't worry, this matter can be easily investigated and clarified."

The reason why so many people don't come looking for them is because they are not well informed.

Unless the person who replaced him has a family that works in the Education Bureau in Beijing, there should be no problem.

Xizi sighed upon hearing this.

"Second brother, you still have connections, but what about those who don't?"

Yang Xiaole sighed upon hearing this: "There are all kinds of birds in a big forest, it's not surprising at all. Where there is light, there will be darkness. How can you possibly eliminate darkness completely!"

This is something that cannot be done in any era.

Even during what was supposedly the fairest period, it was the same.

Xizi nodded slightly upon hearing this.

He has already asked Lao Wang to handle this matter, even if the person who took his place really is a big shot in the Beijing Municipal Education Bureau.

That's no use either.

Xizi naturally agreed upon hearing this.

He said to Zhao Xiu'e, "Since Second Brother has said so, then there's no problem. Let's go take a look tomorrow."

Zhao Xiu'e calmed down after hearing this.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole said to Xizi, "You pull a shuttle bus, and we'll go to Xidan Department Store."

"what?"

"Bring the washing machine back!"

Washing machines have actually existed for a long time, but their production volume was low and they were not widely used.

Now there are more of them.

Of course, this is from their perspective; it's still unacceptable to ordinary people.

After all, the price tag is several hundred dollars.

Moreover, tickets aren't so easy to get.

Given their level, they could certainly get their hands on it.

"A washing machine? You bought a washing machine? Those must have cost a lot of money!"

"Not bad! Let's go!"

Yang Xiaole urged him on.

Xizi then went to borrow a cart from Li Quanyou.

The two went to Xidan Department Store together.

They came back pulling a big thing on a handcart.

Hearing the commotion, the mother came out and said, "Why did you buy this thing? It's ridiculously expensive. We've been washing clothes for decades, why did you have to buy this?"

At this moment, the people in the compound heard the commotion and came over.

Looking at the items, Aunt Wang asked curiously, "Xiao Le, is this a washing machine? I heard it can wash clothes by itself when you put them in? How much does it cost?"

"249."

Yang Xiaole just said it casually.

At that time, domestically produced washing machines were not very expensive.

The imported ones are really expensive.

I bought it for my mother. We didn't have any before; the ones we did have were either exported or given to high-ranking officials.

Now that he has one, he naturally wants to get one too.

Qu Ying also has tickets; we'll arrange one for her in a few days too.

"Goodness gracious! Qiuju, your hands are really precious! You bought a washing machine for over two hundred yuan. That's more expensive than a bicycle!"

Aunt Zhao, who was standing next to her, said sourly.

Everyone else laughed when they heard this.

Wang Qiuju, while feeling both smug and distressed, said, "My second son is just being considerate of me! It's just too expensive."

Yang Xiaole smiled too.

Actually, televisions are now being sold to ordinary people, but they're not very useful now.

It wasn't until after the Spring Festival Gala at the end of 82 that the number of television sets in China experienced explosive growth.

He plans to buy another television in two years.

There is no rush now.

Wang Qiuju looked at the object and asked, "Xiao Le, how do you use this thing?"

Upon seeing this, Yang Xiaole began to explain.

He didn't buy a twin-tub washing machine, but a fully automatic one, although adding and draining water still required manual operation.

This is a bit cumbersome.

"It's that simple. You can try it in a bit. I've also bought the socket. Just put the things under the eaves."

Hearing this, Wang Qiuju nodded: "Perfect timing. Xiu'e came back and took a bath today. We'll try it out later. I'll get some fabric and make a cover for the washing machine."

Yang Xiaole was also puzzled by what he heard.

Two hundred dollars is a large sum of money for people in this era.

"Alright, you keep thinking about it. Xizi and I are going to have dinner."

Neither of them ate.

As for Qu Ying, she must have eaten and taken her child home.

After the two left, Wang Qiuju began to ponder.

Soon after, a sound of surprise rang out.

"Hey, it moved, it moved."

"You really washed it yourself!"

There was a lot of discussion outside.

Yang Xiaole and Xizi were eating inside the house.

……

The next day, when Yang Xiaole returned home from get off work, Xizi excitedly called out to him, "Second Brother, Xiu'e's matter has been resolved."

Yang Xiaole wasn't surprised at all.

"what happened?"

"The person who replaced her is the daughter of the director of the county education bureau. This matter has now been reported back to the local authorities."

Xizi said happily.

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded: "Hmm, it was pretty good! Did you encounter any trouble when you went? How did you resolve it?"

Xizi nodded: "We encountered it, but we have no way to prove it. The person is adamant about not admitting it. Fortunately, we had announced this on the radio beforehand, and the school takes it quite seriously. The academic affairs office gave the two people a few questions to answer."

The questions were very difficult. That person couldn't answer a single one. He was immediately exposed.

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded.

She knew Zhao Xiue's grades; with those grades, she could easily be in the top few dozen, if not the top scorer.

Since the other person took the place, it means they couldn't even get into university and had very poor grades.

It was easy to figure out on the first try.

Pulling himself back to reality, he smiled and asked, "Have you registered yet?"

"Yes, she's already registered. The Normal University is less than five kilometers from here, less than half an hour by bike. She'll be staying at home."

"Okay! And you! When will the results of the first round be announced?"

"It'll be soon; we should receive the results in the next few days."

Yang Xiaole nodded: "Okay, I'm going abroad in a few days and may not be back for a while. You guys better live up to my expectations! If you run into any trouble, ask your second sister-in-law."

Old Zhao has already informed him that he will be leaving the day after tomorrow, and he should figure out how to get to Japan himself.

Then, with the fleet, they would go to Yangon port in Myanmar to pick up people, and then arrive at Alexandria by the end of April. And they would need a legitimate reason to go.

That is, legitimate business dealings.

Upon hearing this, Xizi chuckled and said, "As long as it's fair competition, none of us will have any major problems."

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded.

"Alright, I'll wait for your good news."

"Are you going abroad again?"

Qu Ying eats at home every day and goes back home after eating. Upon hearing this, she asked him about it.

Yang Xiaole nodded: "Yes, there's a project that needs to be done in Japan, and it might take a while."

Hearing this, Qu Ying didn't ask any further questions.

She now works in the district and is very busy every day.

……

After spending a few days at home, Yang Xiaole quietly boarded a plane to Japan.

After landing, he immediately called Zhang Xuesong.

Then I waited for him in a building.

Half an hour later, a convoy of cars stopped at the entrance.

A number of men dressed in black got off the car.

The one leading them was Zhang Xuesong.

Zhang Xuesong gave some instructions to the people around him before pushing open the courtyard gate and walking inside.

……

"Old Hei! What's going on this time?"

Zhang Xuesong was also delighted to see him.

The two hugged each other.

Yang Xiaole looked at him and laughed, "You've gotten quite chubby, haven't you!"

In recent years, he has come here once or twice a year, mainly to transport money back to the mainland and to pass on the information collected by Zhang Xuesong.

After all, the Yamaguchi-gumi has a deep relationship with the local authorities.

He knows many secrets.

It's just that it's peacetime now, and nothing major is happening.

I didn't come last year.

Zhang Xuesong chuckled: "There's not much to do every day, even if I exercise every single day, it won't be enough! Besides, I'm not fat, I'm strong!"

Then he asked anxiously, "Old Hei, when can we go back? There's nothing to do here."

Yang Xiaole understood his thoughts.

After all, I've been away from home for too long.

After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, you can go back in two years, but it will be in the form of an investment. You will be able to travel freely between the two places then."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuesong was surprised: "What's going on?"

Yang Xiaole then gave a brief explanation of the situation.

Hearing this, Zhang Xuesong sighed with emotion: "Ah, it's finally over! It's a pity I still wanted to go to university!"

Yang Xiaole smiled upon hearing this: "There will be plenty of opportunities in the future!"

In recent years, both of them have risen in rank quite a bit.

The person hasn't returned yet, so there's no way to notify them.

I'm only half a level below him now.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuesong sighed and said, "If you hadn't passed the message to my dad, he probably would have thought that his son had died out there! By the way, what's this time? Is it to get money? I'll have someone bring it here later."

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "This time it's different. I need you to arrange a cargo ship to arrive in Alexandria, Egypt, before the end of April. We need to conduct normal business transactions."

Hearing this, Zhang Xuesong pondered.

After a while, he looked up and said, "Okay, I understand. There should be orders for shipping electronic products to Egypt. I'll have someone check to see if any of the Yamaguchi-gumi's shipping companies are handling the shipments."

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly: "Okay, you go and make the arrangements, I'll wait here."

Seeing this, Zhang Xuesong left.

……

Yang Xiaole secretly went to Xu Jinbu's place when she had some free time, but she didn't show up.

Only after confirming that the other party was not in any trouble did he rush back.

at night,

Zhang Xuesong then hurriedly returned.

“I’ve found out. A batch of electronic products is to be shipped to Alexandria at the end of the month. I’ve used my connections to get the freight company here in the Yamaguchi-gumi to take it.”

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Alright, you make the arrangements. The people on the ship will need to disembark in Yangon. Except for those in important positions, everyone else will have to get off and be handed over to our people. I will go there personally."

After hearing this, Zhang Xuesong thought for a moment and said, "I'll go there myself!"

It's clear that this mission is very important.

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "No need, it's not time for you to expose yourself yet. What if we need you later?"

Zhang Xuesong thought about it and finally agreed.

"Okay, by the way, when can I go back for a visit?"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole thought for a moment and said, "At the end of the year! There will be a very important meeting at the end of the year. You can go to Luohu under the guise of investment inspection."

The 12th meeting will be held in December this year, which can be considered as officially sounding the clarion call for reform and opening up.

Many foreign investors come to the mainland for inspections.

It would be suitable for Zhang Xuesong to come over.

Hearing this, Zhang Xuesong chuckled: "That's good! It's been too long since I've been back. By the way, what are you going to do with the boat?"

Yang Xiaole said directly, "The cargo ship will arrive at Yangon Port in mid-March, where we will take over our personnel and then go to Alexandria Port to unload the cargo. I will find a way to cause the ship to malfunction and stay there for a while, waiting for further notice."

Zhang Xuesong nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Mid-March and the end of April, right? Okay, I understand. I'll make the arrangements when I get back. The ship will depart at the end of the month. I'll be waiting for you then!"

"Okay, nothing else is going on. Let's go find Xu Jinbu for a couple of drinks!"

Yang Xiaole said with a smile.

The two then drove away from Zhang Xuesong's men and went to find Xu Jinbu on their own.

Upon arriving here, Xu Jinbu naturally launched into another round of nagging.

Xu Jinbu's breeding farm is still quite large.

Large-scale breeding bases are located in several important prefectures.

Over the past few years, more than 200 Japanese restaurants have opened.

All of them are under Xu Jinbu's name.

The previous pricing was in Japanese yen, but after the yen appreciated, the prices of goods in the market did not change.

It's worth even more after being converted into US dollars.

Of course, during this period, the US dollar had already depreciated against all global currencies.

The exchange rate against the RMB has reached 1:1.5.
1 US dollar is equivalent to 1.5 Chinese yuan.

Xu Jinbu was naturally complaining about going back, and Yang Xiaole also explained the situation to them.

At the end of this year or the beginning of next year, let the two of them go to the mainland under the guise of an inspection.

The three of them drank quite a bit of wine, clinking glasses and exchanging toasts, but none of them got drunk, for fear of saying something they shouldn't have.

……

The following day, Yang Xiaole boarded a plane to Hong Kong Island.

We agreed to return to Japan at the end of the month and then take a ship from Japan to Yangon to pick up the person.

Upon landing on Hong Kong Island, he went straight to the building.

The new landmark building was completed long ago, but it's only in the last two years that the headquarters of major companies have gradually moved here.

The building was previously rented out.

Of the 6700 square meters of land, 45% is for building area, with 3000 square meters for a single floor, and the remaining 3,000 square meters were developed into a plaza.

Hong Kong has never allocated such a large area of private land for public space use. Therefore, in accordance with the Buildings Planning Ordinance, the Hong Kong government granted Jardine House an additional plot ratio, allowing it to build an additional 8.5 standard floors in return.

The building was originally planned to be 52 stories, but it ended up being 60 stories.

Because on Hong Kong Island, building height is also restricted.

Upon arrival, the original building materials were gone, replaced by a plaza surrounded by greenery.

Without stopping, I went straight to the fourth floor.

The fourth floor houses the group's kindergarten, where all eligible children can attend, although a certain level is required.

The kindergarten has very strict security management.

But everyone here knows him.

Release them directly.

"Qiqi, Zimo!"

Yang Xiaole stood at the classroom door, looking at the children drawing inside, and called out.

Upon hearing his voice, the two little ones, a boy and a girl, were overjoyed.

He looked at the teacher and said, "Teacher, teacher, my daddy is here."
