Break out of the courtyard

The temporary office of the foreign affairs negotiation team for the January 1 bombing is located on the west coast of the North Sea in the capital.

"Comrade Zhang Pandi!"

Qiao Hui, the head of the foreign affairs team, was standing behind Zhang Pandi and suddenly shouted, which not only scared Zhang Pandi who was looking at a satellite map on the computer, but also scared everyone else in the office to look over.

Zhang Pandi let go of the mouse, stood up, and pulled out her chair. She looked at Team Leader Qiao, who was also a department-level official, and asked with a frown, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Pandi spoke in a calm tone and had a serious expression on her face. Moreover, she stood up and was not inferior to the other party in momentum.

"Someone reported that you were playing computer games during working hours. I didn't believe it at first, but now..." Team leader Qiao pointed at the computer screen behind Zhang Pandi. Looking at the satellite map on it, he didn't know how to accuse her for a moment. The main reason was that Zhang Pandi didn't use the computer to play games or browse boring websites.

Zhang Pandi ignored the report and didn't look at the people around her. She said calmly, "I'm applying to go to Western Xinjiang to support construction. I want to familiarize myself with the map there in advance. Do you have any questions?"

"You want to go to Xinjiang?" Now it was Team Leader Qiao's turn to be troubled.

Team leader Qiao knew the reason why Zhang Pandi and Zhang Zhaodi were seconded here. Now the matter has not been settled yet, but Zhang Pandi wants to give up. How can this be allowed!

But before Team Leader Qiao could say anything, Zhang Pandi had already picked up the brown briefcase on the table and said, "Director Qiao's authority is too great. I'm sorry, it's difficult for me to serve him!"

After saying this, Zhang Pandi left the office where she had only been for a few days.

These ruthless and hostile words made Qiao Hui stunned for a moment. He was not sure what the other party meant by suddenly turning against him.

Living in the capital is not easy!
The difficulties here are not only due to the high price of rice in Chang'an, but also because many dignitaries must be treated with caution, otherwise they will get into trouble if they are not careful.

Team leader Qiao stood there in silence for a while before realizing that something seemed to be missing.

The next second, Team Leader Qiao looked at Zhang Zhaodi's empty seat, frowned, and asked, "Where is Comrade Zhang Zhaodi?"

A young girl in charge of administrative affairs said timidly, "Deputy Director Zhang has asked for leave. Director Zhang has placed her leave note and hospital diagnosis certificate on your desk!"

Deputy Director Zhang refers to Zhang Zhaodi, because she is still a deputy director, while Zhang Pandyi is a director.

Team leader Qiao Hui walked back to his desk, picked up the leave note and certificate on the table, took a quick look, and realized that there was trouble.

Although Zhang Zhaodi's diagnosis certificate from the Harmonious Hospital stated gastritis, gastroscopy also revealed gastric polyps, and the possibility of cancer could not be ruled out.

So, Zhang Zhaodi took leave and went to Shenzhen for medical treatment.

Once she leaves, who knows when she will come back!
Combined with Zhang Pandi's words just now, Qiao Hui immediately realized that his strategy of speaking loudly to the Zhang sisters these days, hoping to suppress them with his momentum and force them to compromise, had failed!

The Zhang sisters just quit!
When their leader chose Qiao Hui as the leader of the foreign affairs negotiation team, he told him that this time they valued his loud voice and wanted him to gain enough momentum when negotiating with foreign parties.

As a result, no one expected that he would use his loud voice to target Zhang Zhaodi and Zhang Pandyi.

He knew that the two sisters were the key to making Consultant Zhang compromise, but among many methods, he chose verbal violence.

The key point is that the Zhang sisters’ rank, position, and unit are no worse than his!
Now facing a situation that may not end well, as a veteran official, the first remedy that Qiao Hui thought of was to report it to his superiors.

……

When Zhang Pandi returned home, she saw Uncle Zhuang, Old Lady Yang, and Zhuang Lin sitting by the patio.

"If paying compensation is enough, what's the point of the law?" Zhuang Lin said to Zhang Pandi righteously, "I'll ask Consultant Zhang to pay 10 times the compensation. Can we burn all the people in charge of Nichimei to death?"

These two sentences were said by Zhang Pandi when she was arguing with her team leader Qiao Hui at work yesterday.

Zhang Pandi said these angry words at the time mainly because Team Leader Qiao wanted to complete the task and deal with the January 1th bombing case as quickly as possible, without considering the feelings of the Zhang family at all. He brought out a series of big principles, as if the Zhang family had prevented the country from joining the WTO, hindered economic development, and became the sinners of the country!
Compared with Zhang Heping's hope that the two sisters would use his compromise as a means of promotion, it is clear which is more important.

So, the two sisters made a plan that night, and 46-year-old Zhang Zhaodi stayed in the capital to develop.

The 44-year-old Zhang Pandi went to Xinjiang to take up a position, attract investment, and achieve political achievements!

In this way, both of them are expected to reach the department level before the age of 50!

As for yesterday's angry words, what does it matter if she said them? Anyway, Zhang Pandi didn't plan to stay in the foreign affairs team.

Team leader Qiao can't even unite the members within the team, and yet he wants to complete the diplomatic negotiation mission? He's dreaming!
In addition, there were the words Zhang Pandi said to the team leader Qiao Hui when she left just now.

As long as the higher-ups still want Zhang Heping to compromise, Qiao Hui will not be able to stay in that team leader position.

Of course, these were all planned by Zhang Pandi and her eldest sister, and Old Lady Yang and Uncle Zhuang were unaware of them.

Even the eldest sister's hospital diagnosis certificate was issued by an acquaintance at Harmony Hospital with the help of them, in order to retreat in order to advance.

It would be great if my eldest sister Zhang Zhaodi could be the leader of this foreign affairs negotiation team and take the credit for this achievement.

Old Lady Yang pinched Zhuang Lin for not speaking properly, and then waved to Zhang Pandi.

After Zhang Pandi sat down next to her, Old Lady Yang asked slowly, "I heard that you applied to go to Western Xinjiang to support construction?"

"Hmm!" Zhang Pandi responded, looking at Aunt Chen who was busy at the Zhou family's stove. "After much deliberation, I finally chose Xijiang."

"I want to go over and see what kind of magic is there that made Uncle Zhou abandon his family and children and not come back even after retirement!"

"You are 44 years old this year. Take advantage of this opportunity of foreign negotiations and we will help you. You will be able to step into the threshold of department level smoothly." Old Lady Yang advised softly:
"Add to that the longevity potion from Heping, and your and Zhaodi's careers will become smoother and smoother in the future."

Zhang Pandi looked at Old Lady Yang and said with a smile, "My sister and brother-in-law are enough here. I want to try going to Western Xinjiang."

"My brother once said that Xinjiang is a good place. If we build a water conservancy project similar to the Three Gorges Project on the Yarkand River in Altash Village, Kashgar Prefecture, we can control the desert from west to east."

"If we add solar photovoltaic power generation and develop livestock breeding beneath the photovoltaic panels, the speed of sand control can be greatly improved."

“The Three Gorges Project hasn’t even been approved yet, you kid!” Old Mrs. Yang said helplessly. “Heping has made huge investments along the coast. You could choose any city there to develop in and it would be smoother than in Xijiang.” “Actually…” Zhang Pandi pondered for a while before saying with certainty, “I feel that my brother has wanted to invest in Xijiang for a long time, but he just hasn’t been able to get away.”

Old Lady Yang asked in confusion, "Why do you say that?"

Uncle Zhuang and Zhuang Lin also became interested and stared at Zhang Pandi.

"That's just my feeling!" Zhang Pandi laughed. "Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to place the space exploration base in the northwest, so far away from Peace Space."

"What a shame!" Zhuang Lin saw Zhang Pandi's firm determination and shook her head. "When I saw you studying the laws of the Eagle Country in Hong Kong, I thought you were going to try your luck there."

"In the end, I never expected that you would choose the sparsely populated Northwest!"

"Hearing Pan Di say that, I feel she can succeed!" Grandpa Zhuang encouraged with a smile, "Because she's going to Western Xinjiang to realize her dreams, not to pursue pleasure."

"Besides, she has worked in the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office for so many years. After going to Xijiang, she can bring a large amount of investment to the local area."

"Once she makes a name for herself in Western Xinjiang, other regions will be vying to bring her over without her even asking."

Just as Zhang Pandi was chatting about the future with the Zhuang family, Zhang Zhaodi, who had an IV catheter inserted in the back of her hand, also took leave from her original unit and returned.

Zhuang Lin lifted Zhang Zhaodi's left hand and carefully examined the remaining blood in the syringe. "Tsk tsk! This is unbelievable! Not only have my eldest and second sisters grown cunning, they've also taken such ruthless action against me."

"That's nothing!" Zhang Zhaodi retracted her hand, pressed the tape next to the syringe, and said in a deep voice, "There's something that even our parents don't know."

Zhang Zhaodi said this as she came to sit down by the patio and said in a deep voice, "After Heping was burned, everyone said he was seriously injured, but no medical staff would describe his injuries that night to us. They only said he had recovered and told us not to think too much about it."

"During the New Year holidays, we pestered Xiaonan to ask about it because she was the only one who saw her father's injuries that night."

“Finally, she drew a picture for us!”

When Zhang Zhaodi said this, she wiped away the tears that flowed uncontrollably and was choked with sobs and unable to speak.

"There's a hospital bed in the painting, and sitting on it is a figure, completely black, with bloodshot eyes and a large piece missing from his neck." Zhang Pandi clenched her fists and said coldly, "That's how my brother looked when he was injured!"

"I can't imagine how Xiaonan felt when she saw her father like that. Now, whenever I think of that painting, my hands can't help but tremble!"

As they spoke, Zhang Zhaodi and Old Lady Yang held Zhang Pandyi's trembling hands on the left and right.

Zhang Pandi seemed oblivious. "My dad said many of his comrades died in the battles at Shangganling. My brother's injuries are nothing."

"I was thinking at the time, if my mother saw the painting, she would slap my father and kick him out when he said 'it's nothing'!"

……

Just when Zhang Heping was about to concentrate on the research of the 200-year-old medicine, and Chen Shuting was about to send Heping Group's legal, financial, and investment managers to expand investment in the coastal areas, Zhang Pandi, who had returned only two days ago, unexpectedly came with her elder sister Zhang Zhaodi.

After the two sisters told their third brother Zhang Heping about their ideas, Zhang Heping handed a black USB flash drive to Zhang Panddi.

The information in the USB flash drive is the construction information of the Altash Water Conservancy Project in Western Xinjiang, as well as the design information of the supporting equipment, designed by Zhang Heping based on satellite maps and his memories of his previous life.

"If Second Sister insists on going to Xinjiang, I will arrange for two female bodyguards to go with you." Zhang Heping frowned slightly, but did not directly oppose Zhang Panddi's idea.

"Is it inappropriate to bring a bodyguard with me?" Zhang Pandi looked at the bodyguard outside the door and said with a smile, "I'm just a small director. If I bring a bodyguard with me to take up my post, people will gossip about me and it will have a bad impact."

"It's close to the border, and the area is vast and sparsely populated. If you don't want to take a bodyguard with you, then you'd better give up the idea of ​​going to Western Xinjiang as soon as possible." Zhang Heping stood up and walked towards the bathroom. His tone was unquestionable. "Take him as a driver, and take at least one person with you every time you go out."

Ma Xiuzhen, who had been strolling with her great-grandson Zhang Bo outside for a few laps, came back with the crying little guy. She wanted to find Zhang Heping to see the child, but she didn't expect that her two daughters were sitting on the sofa in the living room.

"Are you hungry, little Yuanzi?" Zhang Pandi saw her grandson crying and hurried over to him.

As Ma Xiuzhen handed the child over, she complained, "I really owe you! I raised you, raised your children, and now I have to help you take care of your grandchildren!"

Zhang Heping came out after relieving himself, and said with a hint of malice, "Mom, my second sister is planning to go to Western Xinjiang to support construction, and she doesn't want to bring a female bodyguard with her. Can you help me talk to her?"

When Ma Xiuzhen heard the word "Western Xinjiang", she thought of Chen Liqin, the man who was always away from home. She frowned and asked coldly, "Have you been living a comfortable life for too long, or do you not want your family anymore?"

Under Zhang Pandi's resentful gaze, Zhang Heping took away little Zhang Bo, whose nickname was Yuanzi, and gloatedly asked the nanny to mix milk powder, preparing to feed the baby while watching his second sister quibble.

He never expected that his second sister, who was about to retire in a few years, would go to Xinjiang to suffer!

But then again, ever since he developed the longevity potion, some people have started discussing whether the retirement age should be delayed.

In fact, ever since the Peace Group began licensing drugs and medical equipment technologies to the mainland free of charge, the country's medical standards have been significantly improved.

In addition to the implementation of medical insurance, medicines and examination fees are not expensive, and the Civil Affairs Bureau also has policy subsidies for special groups. In recent years, I have not heard of people in the mainland who cannot afford medical treatment. There are only incurable diseases and medical staff with bad attitudes.

Therefore, the statement that the average life expectancy in China has been extended has become a consensus among many people.

As a result, it has also brought a lot of trouble to the pension insurance system reform that is currently being piloted.

When it was time for dinner, Ma Xiuzhen scolded the second daughter Zhang Pandi again at the dinner table in front of Tang Xin, Chen Shuting, Zhang Bei and others. Only then did the others know that Zhang Pandi was planning to go to Xinjiang.

Seeing Zhang Heping remained silent, Chen Shuting didn't know what he meant, but she still expressed her opinion, "Second sister, the wind and sand are very strong in Western Xinjiang. Our group is investing in a highway there, and we have to spend extra money on sand control."

"To be honest with you, I'm starting to back off from investing there!"

When Zhang Pandi heard this, she couldn't help but hesitate. If the Heping Group stopped investing in Xinjiang, it would be difficult for her to go there again. Otherwise, she would not be able to be transferred back to the capital until she retired.

"How about you consider somewhere else?" Chen Shuting suggested, "You already have grandchildren, there's no need to make things so difficult for yourself!"

Zhang Pandi couldn't make up her mind, and finally looked at Zhang Heping, "Brother, what do you think?" (End of this chapter)
