On August 5th, Longguang City held a large-scale trade fair. For this trade fair, Shin Myung Province sent out a total of 200 invitations, mainly to some large manufacturing enterprises and some national institutions. Just as Chen Weizheng said on the phone, no enterprises in China received an invitation, and neither did the country.
Most people thought that this was a low-key trade fair that was not very high level. Only one person knew the reason, and that person was Liu Dehou. On August 3rd, Liu Dehou returned from Gu Yi City and asked for sick leave. The reason was very far-fetched — he ate too much.
On August 5th, the Internet exploded, broadcasting the trade fair of Nanding Steel in Shin Myung Province's Longguang Industrial Zone. Shin Myung Province's media was very straightforward, and all the activities were made public.
Nanding Steel was a mystery in the eyes of the world. Many agents had lost their lives for it, and many government officials had bowed down for it. Nanding Steel had never been exported abroad. This time, it was sold to the world in the form of a product. It was obvious that Shin Myung Province was preparing to earn a lot of money from all over the world.
The price set by Shin Myung Province was not negotiable. The quantity set by Shin Myung Province was not negotiable. The specifications set by Shin Myung Province were not to be changed. There was no other way. It was an exclusive business, and they could only obey. Moreover, the quantity was limited. That night, all the products to be launched were ordered, and the trade fair was concluded.
At 8: 00 pm, Ren Sui made a speech on TV, announcing the successful conclusion of the trade fair. All the products were taken, and the orders for the next year would be released at the same time next year. At that time, enterprises and units that needed it should be early.
On the morning of August 6th, a group of old leaders in China reacted. Shin Myung Province seemed to have done something strange again. After a day of trade fair, it started in a hurry and ended in a hurry. It was estimated that the results were not very good.
When it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon, a secretary came to tell the leader that all of our export orders were canceled because we didn't use the Nanding steel standard parts produced in Shin Myung Province. The leader said that if the other party canceled the order, they could ask the other party to compensate for the losses. The secretary said that the other party would compensate for the losses and fines, but our company would be done for! Why can't we ask for the Nanding steel standard parts produced in Shin Myung Province? It was hard to understand why he didn't even participate in the trade fair. When the leader asked who was in charge of Shin Myung Province, the secretary said she didn't know. No one had ever been in charge of Shin Myung Province before.
The impact was too bad! After 24 hours, the leaders finally understood what Shin Myung Province's actions meant to them. The leader demanded that the Ministry of Commerce and Trade immediately take action to solve this problem. The Ministry of Commerce and Trade said that they had not established diplomatic relations with Shin Myung Province, so they had no idea where to start. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that their relationship with Shin Myung Province had always been close. Now, they didn't know if it was an ambassador-level relationship or a consul-level relationship. This needed to be decided by the higher-ups.
On August 8th, someone finally thought of Liu Dehou and asked him to mediate. The office said that Liu Dehou was on sick leave and would be hospitalized on the 4th. The Vice Premier went to the hospital to visit him and told him about everyone's thoughts. He hoped that he could mediate the issue of the Nanding steel products.
On August 10th, Liu Dehou reported that Taiwan Dongnan Manufacturing agreed to sell some of their products to China, but the price would be slightly higher.
When the leaders heard this reply, they smiled bitterly. This was really the responsibility of the Director of the Taiwan Affairs Office. He was doing his job!
When the Secretary of the Red River Provincial Committee, Lu Heping, heard that Shin Myung Province's Nanding steel products would have a negative impact on China, he was furious. He removed the Eastern Alliance District's Shin Myung Province office and removed the Deputy Mayor of Qingshui City, Chen Weikai. Lan Shigao couldn't stand it anymore. He called the Chairman of the National People's Congress, "Qingshui City is the last door. If you close it, it will be difficult to open it again."
Only then did the leaders realize that someone was doing something stupid again! How could these people be like this? Other than guessing the intentions of the higher-ups, they didn't have any thoughts at all? What's the use of having them here?
With a transfer order, Lu Heping was transferred away. The Secretary of the Red River Provincial Committee was temporarily replaced by Lan Shigao. Chen Weikai was appointed as the Mayor of Qingshui City, and the former Mayor was transferred to Ningzhou City as the Deputy Mayor. This gap really couldn't be closed. Once it was closed, it couldn't be opened again. All the military supplies had already been transferred to this city for border trade. If it was closed, the Shin Myung Province would also stop the border trade. At that time, the military would be furious again.
Lan Shigao used old age and poor health as an excuse to refuse to be the Secretary of the Red River Provincial Committee. When the General Secretary asked for the reason, Lan Shigao only had one word: old! Actually, the reason was simple. In this year, too many companies had been disbanded. They were all outstanding companies when he was the Provincial Governor. If he were to be the Secretary of the Provincial Committee, these companies would request to be reinstated. He couldn't do it. Since that was the case, he might as well not do it.
When one got old, there would be a day when one didn't care. Lan Shigao suddenly felt that he had aged a lot. After putting down the phone, he remembered that the General Secretary was only a few years younger than him. He was still very energetic. His mentality was already old. He just wanted to let go of Nanshan and leave this noisy place. Lan Shigao's daughter settled down in England. She married an overseas Chinese and gave birth to a grandson. He was already five years old. His wife, Big Sister Wu, was there for a few months and then came back for a few months. Her retirement salary was all earned by the Civil Aviation Administration! In a few months, she would be 60. Once she retired, everything would be over.
Who would be the Secretary of the Red River Provincial Committee became a difficult problem for the decision-makers. China had a habit of consulting the elderly. The Prime Minister was no exception. He first consulted the old Secretary, then Liu Jingyuan. The old Secretary said that there were some things that could not be avoided. Liu Dehou was like a weather vane. His position determined the direction of the Red River. The Red River Province was rotten to this extent. Liu Dehou's heart was bleeding. Ten years of hard work had been ruined. He really didn't know what they were thinking. He would not help them anymore. There was no need for him to help them. He would just watch from the sidelines and let them do whatever they wanted.
Liu Jingyuan's words were more polite. The cadres that he and Liu Dehou promoted were not suitable to be the Secretary of the Red River Provincial Committee. This was because time couldn't be turned back. It was better to find another economic leader to save as much of the Red River's economy as possible. Save as many Red River enterprises as possible!
The decision-makers were speechless. When they asked how to develop diplomatic relations with Shin Myung Province, Liu Jingyuan laughed and said, "We just closed the Shin Myung Province office in the Eastern Alliance District, and now we are talking about diplomatic relations. I really don't know what you are thinking! Will Chen Weizheng talk to you? "
Sure enough, Shin Myung Province took action gently. Within the deadline set by the Red River Provincial Committee, all Shin Myung Province personnel in the Eastern Alliance District were withdrawn to Shin Myung Province and arranged for them to work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The personnel of various enterprises and departments in China in Shin Myung Province were notified to return to China within a time limit. Border trade with China was temporarily suspended. The three highways to China were all closed. The South Stream Highway to Chittagong was temporarily blocked. At this point, the relationship between China and Singapore fell to the coldest point in history.
At the end of August, Liu Yu reluctantly bid farewell to Zeng Zhao. He took the four elders of Chen Village to Longshan City. The four elders were going to attend Xiao Song's wedding. It had already been confirmed that they would settle down in Shin Myung Province. Xiao Zhu was going to give birth in September. Old Liu had said that as long as Xiao Zhu gave birth, he would definitely come and take care of the child. It was time to fulfill his promise.
On the 28th of August, the port of Qingshui was bustling with excitement. From the direction of China, there were about ten buses ready to enter through Qingshui. The mayor of Qingshui, Chen Weikai, was in contact with Shin Myung Province. In the name of a large tourist group, the ten buses were allowed to pass through. These people were going to arrive in Jiangke City to attend comrade Liu Songzhao's wedding.
From the guest list, it could be seen that this was a government delegation. They had an ulterior motive for attending Xiao Song's wedding. They wanted to use this as an excuse to get in touch with Shin Myung Province and break the ice between the two sides. The first on the list was the old Secretary. The old Secretary shone at Xiao Zhu's wedding last time. This time, he came with a mission to ease the relationship with Shin Myung Province and facilitate the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two sides.
The second was the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Li Yannian. The third was the Minister of Commerce, Duan Zhangning. The fourth was the Director of the Taiwan Affairs Office, Liu Dehou. The fifth was a retired veteran, Liu Jingyuan. The sixth was the Deputy Minister of the General Logistics Department, He Zhengxi.
This time, the well-prepared China delegation encountered another unexplainable situation. Chen Weizheng did not attend Xiao Song's wedding. During the entire wedding, he did not even appear. Liu Yi took over everything.
Of course, Zheng Bolong was there to deal with the old Secretary. Wei Jie was there to deal with Li Yannian. Ren Sui was there to deal with Duan Zhangning. Maud Bundle, Wu, Qiu Cha, and the others only showed up at Xiao Song's banquet. In private, Luo Yang's father, Loba, and Liu Dehou had a meal. The rest of the time was in Hue Hua. The tourism project of Zhongyue Province was officially launched. The people of Zhongyue Province were currently in a state of frenzy. They would hug a dancing flower drum to sleep at night.
Everyone thought that Chen Weizheng was deliberately avoiding the delegation from China. This was a complete misunderstanding. Chen Weizheng was attracted by Hua Zheng's comprehensive Art of Clear Sky and entered a meditative state. Only Xiao Song knew the truth. Although he was a little dissatisfied, there was nothing he could do.
Xiao Yu and Wang Ning returned from Europe just to drink a mouthful of good wine.
Luo Yang, who was dressed in a Luo Pa costume, dyed the whole Jiangke City in a festive color. Jiangke City was the Luo Pa's Jiangke City. Chen Weizheng had promised Loba to give them a province as their territory. Naga Province became the only place in Shin Myung Province that had its own national costume.
The marriage of the Luo Pa people was not free to fall in love. Instead, it was up to the parents to decide the marriage of their children. Loba was most satisfied with this matter. When Xiao Song and Luo Yang were still in a hazy period, he had made this marriage agreement with Liu Dehou in the capital of China. When he came back and told the elders in his tribe, they approved of it and thought that it was a match made in heaven. Thus, it established the legitimacy of this wedding.
In Jiangke City, Comrade Xiao Song had a small courtyard that belonged to him. In the small courtyard surrounded by a wooden fence, there was a blockhouse made of stone and wood. This kind of blockhouse was sturdy and durable and had a very good defensive function. On the wall, there were many pictures of avoiding evil and seeking fortune. There were also animal heads hanging on the wall. This was a symbol of wealth and also a way to show off the hunter's hunting ability. Unfortunately, none of them were hunted by Comrade Liu Songzhao. Xiao Song loved this house so much that he couldn't bear to part with it. He installed the internet, fixed the toilet, teak flooring, sandalwood furniture, and even the furniture that didn't look eye-catching were all priceless.
The Luo Pa people were a tribe that mainly hunted. Thus, the special brand of hunting was also imprinted on the wedding. Their wedding was more like a hunt.
First, they killed the chickens. At the wedding, the bride and groom had to kill the chickens three times. The first time, they killed the two chickens that had been hung on the newly built wooden door in front of the groom's wooden house. The second time, they killed the chickens that were hung on a bamboo frame made of eight bamboo poles in the courtyard. The third time, they killed the two chickens in the groom's house. There were strict requirements for killing the chickens. The bride had to be a woman with children.
Then came the pig slaughter. The whole wedding was immersed in the sound of chickens flying and pigs roaring, making those who did not know what to do.
Finally, it was a battle to the death. Before the wedding began, the bride and groom's escorts and escorts had to engage in a real battle with real swords and real spears. They fought until dust flew up in all directions. They fought until the shadows of swords and blades flashed, and the sounds of tigers and tigers could be heard. So this was the welcoming ceremony for Bubba's wedding.
