Chapter 1333 The Fun of Blowing Up Dog Pots (2)
Liu Meilan was dumbfounded. "Contraband? What contraband could two little kids have on them?"
Fu Chen crouched down, pulled the two children out from behind him, and then personally felt their pockets. Although he hadn't seen anything yet, Fu Chen's expression changed.
Their pockets were filled with small firecrackers taken apart, and lighters.
Not only were Fu Hai's pockets filled with four small firecrackers, but Fu Ying's pockets were also filled with quite a few.
When Fu Chen took these things out, Liu Meilan was dumbfounded.
They were traveling by plane, and these items were flammable and explosive, so they were obviously prohibited.
Liu Meilan looked embarrassed. "I'm sorry, the kids were setting off firecrackers at home this afternoon and went too far! I didn't know they had these in their pockets. Please forgive me for causing you trouble!"
The staff breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Liu Meilan say that. They were afraid that rich and powerful people like her would cause trouble and be unreasonable. "The child is young and doesn't understand. We adults will take care of her!"
Liu Meilan also squatted down and checked the baby again, inside and out, even taking off the shoes to inspect them. After confirming there were no firecrackers or lighters on the baby, she said, "Check again!"
The staff checked the shoes again carefully, even inside, to make sure there were no problems before letting the child pass.
When Fu Ying saw the firecrackers and lighters on the table, she quickly said, "Mom, we haven't taken those things yet!"
Liu Meilan looked embarrassed. "We're taking a plane, and these things are dangerous. We can't take you on board!"
Fu Ying felt very wronged. "This firecracker can explode really high in the dog bowl. I wanted to take it back and share it with my older brothers and sisters!"
Everyone laughed when they heard Fu Ying's words. Many people have probably blown up dog bowls before.
Fu Chen, who was originally going to scold his daughter, was both amused and exasperated after hearing this. "You can't bring it on the plane. If you want to share with your older siblings, we can buy it when we get there! They have it there too!"
Fu Ying was skeptical. "Really? This firecracker can send a dog bowl flying three stories high! Can firecrackers from Beijing do that too?"
"Really!" Fu Chen hugged Fu Ying. "Let's hurry, or we'll miss our flight!"
Liu Meilan quickly grabbed Fu Hai's hand; these two little devils were really mischievous.
I passed through security without incident and boarded the plane. After nearly four hours of flight, we landed at Beijing Airport.
The Fu family has already sent people to pick us up. They drove the car directly inside and passed through the expressway.
It was indeed very cold outside. Liu Meilan wrapped the children in down jackets, making them look round and chubby. Even Liu Meilan herself wore a hat and a thick, long down jacket that reached her ankles.
After waking up from their afternoon nap, Mr. and Mrs. Fu started wandering around outside again.
Although it didn't snow today, the weather was gloomy and a cold wind was blowing.
Just as Grandpa Fu was wandering around outside, Grandpa Liang and Grandpa Xu also came out of their homes. "When are Meilan and Fu Chen arriving?"
Grandpa Fu replied, "We probably won't arrive until dark!"
"Then you'll have to wait a long time. Aren't you afraid of getting cold?" Old Master Liang retorted, his breath turning into white vapor as he spoke.
Grandpa Fu chuckled, "I may have something on my mind, but I'm happy. I'm full of energy and don't feel the cold!"
Grandpa Liang quickly nodded in agreement, "You know what, after recuperating on Sifang Island for two or three months, I feel much better when I come back. Even in this cold weather, I still feel warm!"
this point is very important.
Because of the decline in bodily functions, older adults feel cold in winter. To keep warm, many elderly people wear many layers of clothing to reduce the amount of heat their bodies lose due to the low temperatures.
Grandpa Xu took a deep breath. "I used to cough every winter, but now I've been back for half a month and I feel great! My chest doesn't feel as tight as before, it feels very comfortable! Old Fu, let's go back there to recuperate next year!"
Grandpa Liang nodded in agreement, "I'll go too! We've had such a comfortable time on Sifang Island, all thanks to Meilan. When Meilan and her family come over, I'll definitely invite them to our house for dinner!"
Grandpa Xu nodded quickly, "Me too! We must invite Meilan and Fu Chen to our house for dinner, we can't refuse!"
Liu Meilan did indeed take care of them on Sifang Island, allowing them to rest and recuperate in peace.
But that wasn't the main reason they wanted to invite Liu Meilan to dinner. Rather, it was because Liu Meilan had suggested a project to Liang Cheng and Xu Feng that was very suitable for the local area.
It not only brings huge economic benefits, but also has a huge industrial cluster.
Most importantly, it allows local people to experience the benefits and convenience brought about by economic development.
For example, Liangcheng chose a desert area near the edge of the power grid and set up solar panels there.
These solar panels are all from research projects sponsored by Liu Meilan. The research results have been applied in practice, greatly improving the efficiency of converting solar energy into electricity.
Now, the photovoltaic power generation is connected to the grid, providing electricity for the city's industrial construction. What surprised Liang Cheng even more was that the grass seeds sown under the photovoltaic panels actually sprouted into grass.
Previously, the area below was all sand, and any place where grass could grow was extremely valuable.
Growing grass can help stabilize and prevent sandstorms, which is also a key focus of their local work.
Grass can be grown to raise sheep, increasing income. Most importantly, there's electricity too—a project that achieves three benefits at once, making it one of the most eye-catching projects this year.
Even on a national scale, it's among the best. At the end of the year, not only were people commended by lower levels, but higher levels also emphasized this matter. His grandson, Liang Cheng, has already caught the attention of the leadership based on this alone.
Because of the success of the small-scale trial, the photovoltaic project will be expanded next year, creating more economic value.
As for the Xu family, they are also very satisfied with Xu Feng's achievements this year.
Through state-owned economic reforms, restructuring local state-owned enterprises, introducing new technologies, and enhancing industrial cluster capabilities, industrial output has directly increased by 56% this year.
Those entities that were originally considered a burden and could only rely on financial relief have not only been revitalized, but have also seized the market with outstanding performance and are far ahead in their respective industries.
All of this would not have been possible without Liu Meilan outlining an economic structure model for them. Liang Cheng and Xu Feng are indeed very capable, but they could not have considered things so comprehensively and developed so well.
This is the third generation in the family, on whom high hopes are placed. Now, with Liu Meilan's help, they have achieved remarkable results. The Xu and Liang families are, of course, extremely grateful.
Grandpa Fu smiled and said, "Today is the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, and tomorrow is New Year's Eve! If you want to host a dinner party, wait until after the fifth day of the new year. Then you can have a quiet time to eat and chat."
"I'll treat you on the sixth day of the lunar new year!" Old Master Xu said hurriedly. "My whole family should thank Meilan."
