The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 355 Coming up with ideas

It's quiet at night.

Liu Tao held his beautiful wife's slender waist and charged left and right like a mad bull.

After a long time, the room fell silent.

The couple hugged each other and whispered their true feelings to each other to ease the pain of missing each other.

It has been three years since we got married, and four years since we knew each other.

After getting married and having children, as a mother of four children, Zhu Lin has become more feminine, exuding feminine charm, which can be said to be alluring.

At least Liu Tao had no power to resist his beautiful wife.

Her every move, every frown and smile, all touched Liu Tao's heart, making him immersed in her purity, enchantment and charm.

Liu Tao had seen many beauties over the years, but none of them could compare to Zhu Lin.

With such a beautiful wife, Liu Tao returns to Beijing for eight days of vacation every month, so naturally he would not have any thoughts about the outside world.

Having such a beautiful wife in this life is enough!

Zhu Lin whispered about her next plan. She had wanted to open a flower shop before, but man proposes, God disposes. She got pregnant again at that time and had to cancel the plan.

Now that they don't need to worry so much about the child and there is someone to help take care of him, Zhu Lin and Liu Hongying want to restart the plan.

They didn't think about renting a store outside, but planned to display the flowers at the west gate.

The courtyard is very large, covering an area of ​​more than 20,000 square meters and a construction area of ​​about 5,000 square meters.

Even though they all live here now, even Liu Tao's parents do not live in the dormitory area of ​​the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building on weekends, but live in the courtyard, which makes the courtyard seem very empty.

Liu Tao did not object to Zhu Lin and Liu Hongying opening a flower shop. As the saying goes, a pregnancy makes people stupid for three years, so it was good to have something to do.

This way, Zhu Lin won't feel lonely when he is not around.

"I think that in addition to opening a flower shop, we can also open a bookstore or a coffee shop. Apart from the area where we live, other places can be open," Liu Tao suggested.

The entire courtyard is definitely a model of Beijing courtyards. In addition to the area where they live being located in the center, it is surrounded by lakes on all sides, including South Lake, Back Lake, East Lake, and West Lake, and is connected to the front by four stone bridges.

The total living area here is 1500 square meters, the building area is 700 square meters, and the remaining 800 square meters is the leisure area, such as children's swings, Sophora japonica trees, etc.

This part is used as a living place and is also a secret place, so outsiders are naturally not allowed to come in.

However, there are other buildings around the lake, such as the Listening to the Rain House, the old flower house, the wisteria trellis, the Luoyang Peony, etc. These areas can be fully utilized.

For a flower shop, an old flower room is enough.

The total area of ​​other buildings is 4200 square meters.

"But we don't have that many people. We just want to have something to do besides taking care of the children." Zhu Lin scratched Liu Tao's chest with her hair.

Liu Tao smiled and said, "It's easy. Your parents' relatives can see if there are any unemployed people who can be recruited. If there are none, we are next to Beijing Normal University and the Central Academy of Drama. We can definitely hire college students and give them a chance to work and study while studying."

At that time, even in the capital, there were many young people who were unemployed.

Nowadays, many young people need their parents to give up their jobs to them in order to work, but even so, many young people are still unemployed.

Besides, there are Beijing Normal University and Central Academy of Drama nearby, so there are still quite a few college students.

A job like this would be very attractive to college students.

"Will it be illegal to recruit people?" Zhu Lin was a little worried.

Liu Tao smiled and said, "Flower shops, bookstores, and coffee shops are all registered separately. How can it be illegal? Individual businesses are now legal and compliant."

"Now that we have reform and opening up, look at our units, they have all been restructured into companies, including the First to Eighth Ministry of Machine Building. This shows that the country wants to learn the market economy of Europe and the United States," said Liu Tao.

Even though individual industrial and commercial households can already register and apply for business licenses, for society as a whole, there is still a question mark over them.

Some people also started businesses, but they did not dare to open private companies, but instead registered under the banner of township enterprises. The reason why reform and opening up is great is that it broke through the rules and regulations, overcame many difficulties, found a development path for China, and greatly improved China's comprehensive national strength.

Zhu Lin, as his wife, has such concerns about individual business owners, let alone other ordinary people.

“But I don’t know how to run a coffee shop. I don’t even know how to make coffee.” Zhu Lin said distressedly.

Liu Tao smiled and said, "This is a simple matter. You don't know how to do it. I will arrange for you to go to Hong Kong to study."

Afterwards, Liu Tao and Zhu Lin discussed in a low voice.

The Siheyuan is naturally not suitable for renovation. The most appropriate thing is to keep its original flavor and charm.

Others may like small Western-style buildings, but Liu Tao thinks that courtyard houses are more attractive.

Liu Tao didn't expect much money from Zhu Lin and the others doing this. He just wanted them to not lose a lot. The most important thing was that they had something to do.

Go to bed early, get up early and exercise early.

In the early morning, after a fierce battle, he went to the bathroom to take a shower. After taking a shower, Liu Tao went to the study.

Taking out a piece of paper, Liu Tao then wrote: I have three loves, the sun, the moon and you. The sun is for me in the morning and the moon is for me in the evening. You are with me every morning and every evening.

Then he took out another piece of paper and wrote "Birds and Fish":
The longest distance in the world

Not the distance between life and death
But
I'm standing right in front of you
You don't know i love you
The longest distance in the world

No, I'm standing in front of you.
You don't know i love you
But
We clearly know that we love each other
But we can't be together

"The Birds and the Fishes" has dozens of versions and is widely circulated, and is regarded as the most beautiful poem in the world.

It is said that this poem was written by Tagore, but in fact it is not true. No research can prove that it was written by Tagore. It is more of the collective wisdom of young people.

I was chatting with Zhu Lin last night, and Zhu Lin asked him to write some poetry to attract young people.

Liu Tao thought about it and concluded that for young people, love poems are probably the most likely to touch their hearts.

After a fierce battle early in the morning, Liu Tao suddenly had an idea in his mind and wrote as if inspired by God.

For the third song, he chose "See and Not See".

you see or don't see me,

I'm right there,
Neither sad nor happy;

You miss me or don't miss me,

Love is there,
Not coming, not going;

you love me or don't love me,

love is there,
No increase or decrease;

You follow, or you don't follow me,

My hand is in yours,

Never give up;

come into my arms,
或，
Let me live in your heart.

Silently, in love;
Silence, joy.

Before he knew it, he had written twenty love poems, which, with illustrations, were enough to publish a short collection of love poems.

"Besides love poems, there should be other things." Liu Tao muttered to himself, and then started writing again.
