Nominal: Who isn't a son-in-law?

After signing the document and putting down his pen, Sha Ruijin continued:

"In principle, we agree to the overall layout of the Xinglong and Xinghui New Energy projects. Xinglong and Xinghui Group will cooperate with the state-owned assets of Handong Province, Qin Province, and Yu Province to establish Longhui Group... Handong will retain 40% of its core production capacity and all its R&D, headquarters, and operational functions, while 60% of its production capacity will be located in Qin Province and Yu Province to support the development of western China and coordinated regional development."

"The provincial government will take the lead in establishing a cross-provincial coordination mechanism with Shaanxi and Henan provinces to ensure the orderly implementation of projects and controllable risks. After the meeting, formal letters will be sent to the two provinces. Comrade Shijun, I will need you to lead the team to make a trip there."

"Of course."

Chu Shijun nodded.

"We will fully guarantee the supply of essential resources such as policy, land, energy consumption, and financing, and expedite the process with special measures. Projects must be legal and compliant, and the transfer of benefits is strictly prohibited. We will also guard against corruption risks, and the discipline inspection commission and auditing department will supervise the entire process."

"After the meeting, Comrade Jinyi, the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee officially notified the relevant departments."

After Sha Ruijin finished speaking, he prepared to adjourn the meeting.

Meeting adjourned.

"Please wait a moment."

Gao Yuliang suddenly spoke up.

"Comrades, I have something to explain."

Everyone looked at him.

After a moment of silence, Gao Yuliang said, "Today, after a consultation with Dr. Liu, the director of the Provincial Health Department, it is confirmed that my wife, Professor Wu Huifen, is pregnant. As the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, I hereby report to you all truthfully in accordance with relevant requirements. I am an only child with one daughter, which does not violate the birth policy or relevant regulations. The relevant materials will be submitted promptly after the meeting."

Everyone was shocked.

He swore that he truly knew nothing about this news, including Chu Shijun, and Pei Qianqian knew nothing about it either.

Sha Ruijin, seated at the head of the table, twitched at the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with shock.

Li Dakang was even more at a loss. What was going on? Wasn't it said that Wu Huifen, the teacher, would help Zhong Xiaoai take care of the child? How come she's pregnant too?

He couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. Looking at the brand-new thermos in front of him, he wondered if it was related to the Chinese medicine he had drunk before.

He thought so, and so did everyone else.

Other members of the Standing Committee recalled that at the last meeting, Group Leader Luo was also present, and Gao Yuliang mentioned that he was drinking Chinese medicine given to him by Li Dakang to improve his health.

They're newlyweds, and his wife is over forty; it's understandable that she's pregnant.

You two are both over fifty, and you've blossomed like an old tree.

So that's how you nourish your body!

"Congratulations, Comrade Yuliang."

Sha Ruijin's lips moved as he spoke, unsure of what to say next.

It's definitely not a violation of rules.

Gao Yuliang's statement here indicates that he was prepared to have the baby.

"Congratulations, Comrade Yuliang."

"Congratulations, Comrade Yuliang."

Li Dakang said with emotion.

Last week, at the meeting, Gao Yuliang congratulated him. In just seven days, he started congratulating Gao Yuliang.

This year's Handong has truly made a name for itself.

"Congratulations to you too!"

Gao Yuliang said something that sounded familiar to everyone.

Everyone was startled and dared not share in the joy.

Li Dakang said, "You've arrived."

We never thought about having another one.

……

After the meeting.

As expected, the passed proposal should have sparked considerable discussion, but it was all overshadowed by the news of Gao Yuliang's wife's pregnancy.

The news spread from the provincial party committee compound to the street offices immediately.

The names Li Dakang and Gao Yuliang dominated the discussion, followed by the mysterious Chinese medicine in Li Dakang's thermos.

As we all know, sometimes people who don't want to get pregnant can get pregnant no matter what.

I want to get pregnant but I just can't conceive.

The fact that their news was put together gave some people who wanted children a new idea.

So these people started using their connections and connections, making phone calls and building relationships.

The final phone call went directly to their secretaries, Xiao Jin and Xiao He, asking for the prescription and the contact information of the prescribing doctor.

Although Li Dakang and Gao Yuliang were a little embarrassed, they were experienced and shrewd, and their skin was thicker than a city wall. They generously gave them the prescription and contact information.

This indirectly led to a surge in maternity leave applications in Handong, reaching a peak in the following year, especially after the birth policy was relaxed the year afterward.

……

The General Office of the Provincial Party Committee and the General Office of the Provincial Government issued a notification regarding the final proposal.

The General Office of the Provincial Government submitted a report to the Provincial Party Committee for approval and to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Organization Department for record-keeping regarding Governor Chu Shijun's delegation to Henan and Shaanxi provinces for inspection and consultation.

Subsequently, the government of Handong Province immediately sent letters to Qin Province and Yu Province to confirm the main members of the delegation.

The delegation included Governor Chu Shijun, Executive Vice Governor Yang Xiaofeng, Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee Secretary Li Dakang, Secretary-General Zheng Wei, and officials from the Development and Reform Commission, Finance Bureau, and Industry and Information Technology Bureau.

Accompanying him were personnel from the research office, the general office secretariat, the press office, and the security department, as well as heads of core enterprises and reporters.

It was finally decided that the day after tomorrow, a six-day inspection and consultation trip would be conducted in Shaanxi and Henan provinces.

……

That night.

Chu Shijun returned home.

Sun Mingjian and Chen Shengmin sat in the courtyard smoking and chatting, while fiddling with the flowers and plants that Liu Changsheng had left behind.

Seeing the car stop outside, the two men stood up, went out to greet him, and gave a strange salute, saying, "Greetings, Governor Chu!"

"Yes, hello to you too."

Chu Shijun said solemnly.

After saying that, the three of them laughed heartily.

"Hahaha"

"Myung-geun, Seong-min, how have you been?"

Chu Shijun embraced the two warmly.

We've been friends for over twenty years, and we've had dealings with each other before.

As their businesses grew and he became more successful and busy, they mostly kept in touch by phone, only getting together for a lively get-together during major holidays.

"All is well, all is well."

Sun Mingjian was a few years older than Chu Shijun and a bit overweight. "We businessmen here are all about money, it's much easier for us than for you."

"Not bad, but Shijun, both Lao Sun and I have gained weight, how come you, sitting in the office, haven't changed at all?"

Chen Shengmin rubbed his protruding beer belly and said in a sour tone.

"Just exercise more. Besides, I don't eat delicacies like you guys every day."

Chu Shijun laughed, putting his arms around the two of them, "Come on, let's go inside and talk."

"Where are Sister Siyuan and Sister Yuting?"

"They're helping with the cooking."

Sun Mingjian pointed to the chairs in the yard, "Let's talk outside."

"Alright,"

The three of them pulled up a chair, sat down, and lit cigarettes.

"Shijun, your Handong is quite efficient. You hold a meeting in the morning and another at noon, and the matter is settled. If this were in other places, it would take at least ten days or half a month to study and discuss it, with everyone pushing and shoving each other until the very end, when everyone is satisfied, before a decision can be made."

Sun Mingjian mentioned the notice that was sent to them after the meeting.

Having been in business for so many years and traveled to various places, he was telling the truth.

Some places aren't failing to develop; their very way of doing things is just wrong.

He thought that Chu Shijun would arrive here in Handong, so things would be quicker, but he didn't expect it to be this fast.

Preparations were underway, and they just arrived today.

The meeting in Handong was held and the resolution was passed immediately without any disputes; everyone agreed.
