The couple was stunned after hearing this. The brother-in-law was also an insider: "Didn't Pengcheng confiscate that?"

"When we purchased the scrapped aircraft carrier, there were clear regulations prohibiting its use for military purposes. We certainly couldn't donate it to the country in an open and aboveboard manner. The company in Gangcheng is just a shell company, used to fight a lawsuit with Pluto Shipyard. If it wasn't for the consideration that it might be useful in the future, it would have been cancelled long ago."

Liu Dongxue suddenly realized that nothing is as simple as it seems.

"Sister, you did the right thing. These two aircraft carriers are of great significance to the development of our country's navy. They can be regarded as national heroes."

"Okay, let's stop talking about that and eat. Let's try our flying dragons, pheasants, and geese."

Soon, the dishes came, all of them were exquisite and luxurious: Feilong Matsutake Soup, Pheasant Stewed with Hazel Mushrooms, Roast Goose, Roast Duck, and of course, light vegetarian dishes, such as Echinops Root, Fern, and Wild Leek.

Brother-in-law Zhu Ming felt ashamed of himself. His eldest brother-in-law graduated from junior high school, was the CEO of a logistics company, had hundreds of vehicles, and was well-known in the three northeastern provinces. His eldest sister was an expert in raising geese, producing millions of geese a year. Not to mention his second sister and her husband, who had countless businesses under their names and held high positions, but were usually too low-key, which made others underestimate them.

After three rounds of drinks, it was almost time to eat.

Liu Xialian sighed, "Third sister, I know you have a stubborn temper, but you are almost thirty years old. Sometimes people have to bow to reality. You can't accomplish anything with passion. In the end, we still need to do things down to earth. You and your husband are both masters of ship design. How about this, I buy a shipyard, arrange someone to be responsible for management, and you two are responsible for technology. Can a big ship be built?"

Liu Dongxue pushed her glasses and said, "Second sister, you are not kidding. Although I know you have made a lot of money running the kimchi factory over the years, buying a shipyard, even a small one, would cost tens of millions for equipment, factory buildings, workers' wages, and labor protection supplies. You just bought two aircraft carriers, do you have any extra money?"

Liu Xia Lian nodded: "There is still money, you don't have to worry about that. In the past few months, we have spent hundreds of millions just on buying ships. Three Antarctic shrimp boats, eight fishing boats. There are also seven or eight 120-meter container ships and 80-meter bulk carriers from shipping companies that sail to Southeast Asia."

Zhu Ming put down the roast goose in his hand and asked: "Could it be that it was ordered by Gangcheng Huayong International Shipping?"

"Yes, how did you know?"

"Hu's Shipyard can earn at least tens of millions of dollars from this order. Word has spread in the industry that the buyer is an amateur and didn't bargain much."

Liu Xia Lian smiled slightly and didn't care.

At that time, Hu Gang gave 20 million yuan, and this money must be returned to him eventually.

"It doesn't matter. You can't buy things without letting others make money. Let's not talk about that. I'm going to buy a shipyard. Can you two take on the responsibility? Don't build something too big at this stage. Can you build container ships or bulk carriers of 80 or 120 meters?"

"Yes, we can definitely do it. Give us some time, and we can even build a 150-meter bulk carrier. Cargo ships are different from warships. The technical content is low. We can definitely produce it if we buy the right steel plates and materials."

"Okay, I'll raise 100 million yuan and go to Jingjiang to buy a shipyard. You and your brother-in-law will be the chief engineers."

Liu Dongxue's heart started pounding when she heard this. Her life with her second sister had actually been severed, and it seemed as if the 100 million yuan was just like borrowing 200 yuan from a neighbor.

My brother-in-law slammed the table and said, "Done it. I'm just worried that the distance is not too far and the original shipyard owner will continue to retaliate against the two of us."

"You two can't be factory managers, so I'll arrange someone else. Each of you will hold 1% of the shares, and each will have an annual salary of 100,000 yuan, with a car and a driver. As for that factory manager, it's his good fortune that he doesn't retaliate. If he really dares to come, he'll be like a man who wants to hang himself because he thinks his life is too long."

Liu Dongxue scratched his head: "Why not open it in another place, to Pengcheng or Liancheng."

"It's easier to do business in a crowd. When you buy vegetables, do you go to a place that sells them all, or to a place with many stalls?"

"Of course, go to a place with a lot of stalls."

"This is it."

Zhao Hua was holding back his laughter and didn't say anything. The third sister was still a little naive. Why did she open a shop in a place where there were many shipyards? It was obvious that she was trying to poach people. People go to higher places and water flows to lower places. If the salary is 30% higher than that of peers, she can gather a large number of skilled workers and engineers who have advantages over peers.

There are more than a dozen large factories in the surrounding area, with hundreds of thousands of workers. Some of the factories have long been on the verge of bankruptcy due to insufficient income. By raising a big flag and easily recruiting thousands of workers, the factory will be able to get off the ground.

The group arrived at the forest farm the next day, and arriving at the forest farm was like arriving home.

After returning to his hometown after a long absence, Liu Dongxue completely let himself go, jumped out of the car and ran into the cornfield.

The weather in July in the south is extremely hot. It is also like this in Changbai Mountain. It is quite hot at noon and you have to wear a long coat in the morning and evening. You can get through the summer with just a fan.

The forest farm, which was once prosperous, is still prosperous today, but the main enterprise has changed. It was a forest farm at first. Now it is a kimchi factory. The trucks of dealers transporting goods are lined up in a long line. The kimchi factory, which started with a hundred people, now has more than 4,000 female workers. It produces kimchi, canned food, chili sauce, and vacuum corn.

"Sister, what does that big factory over there do? Why does it feel so murderous?"

"You're right. That's your eldest sister's goose slaughterhouse, where tens of millions of poultry are slaughtered every year. The first three factory managers had problems as soon as they took office. Later, your eldest sister's in-law's uncle, Zhang the Butcher, became the factory manager, and things stabilized. The annual net profit exceeds 20 million, and the tax is 3 to 4 million, and it supports thousands of workers."

Zhu Ming secretly regretted it after hearing this, thinking to himself, "Wife, you are such a bad person. Your relatives are so rich, why don't you find some connections? Why do you have to suffer so much?" In fact, when Liu Dongxue got married, the factory director only had a dozen people. The child was stubborn and only wanted to graduate from a prestigious school, but the reality was cruel. He went to a big factory and caught up with the trend.

After a brief rest in the forest farm, the convoy finally arrived at Lijiatun. This place that I had always dreamed of was still so peaceful. Pheasants were singing in the forest, geese were calling by the stream, and the country roads were wider. In addition to horse-drawn carriages, there were more tractors and three-wheeled vehicles.

My mother was waiting at the entrance of the village on an electric donkey. As soon as she came, she picked up my third sister's child, Xiao Zhuzhu.

"Come here, let grandma hold you. You little darling is growing so fast that I can't hold you anymore even though you're two years old."

There is not much change in my yard, except that there is a huge net in the backyard with thousands of flying dragon birds in it.

"Mom, why do you have more and more birds? Their droppings stink so much." Liu Dongxue said, covering her nose.

"Really? Why didn't I smell it? I clean it twice a day."
