Chapter 1017: Chapter 1017: On the Job
Qian Zhifeng stepped out and immediately made a phone call to notify.
When the end-of-day bell rang, Tan Shaoting came over and saw his wife still busy. He quietly retreated again.
He went straight to the cafeteria and when Su Yuanyuan saw the dinner, she paused for a moment. How did Tan Shaoting know her taste?
She was starting to believe she indeed was Su Yuanyuan, and actually, it’s better this way. No mental burden.
After dinner, there was immediately another meeting. This time, Zheng Wenqiang also joined.
Once the direction for attracting investment was confirmed, instructions would be passed down.
Su Yuanyuan frowned. The situation was too complicated here. Most people couldn’t resist the temptation of money. It seems this matter needs to raise an alarm; they absolutely cannot think they can muddle through this.
Su Yuanyuan generally didn’t talk much during meetings, and everyone knew of her habit, yet no one dared to be careless. Even though she seemed to be simply listening, if you made a mistake, she would point it out immediately.
The meeting ended after an hour and a half and the person in charge was assigned. As she stepped out, she saw Tan Shaoting waiting outside for her.
She didn’t even realize she had a smile on her face.
"Where are Qi Yan and the others?"
"They haven’t returned yet. But I received a call from Daqing; they’re about to arrive home."
Everyone present knew Minister Su’s husband and children were back. But there were still some who hadn’t seen them before.
Looking at them, they finally understood what it means to be a perfect couple.
Tan Shaoting greeted Zheng Zhiqiang, then followed Su Yuanyuan back to the office.
"Is there more work?"
"No, let’s go back and wait for Qi Yan and them."
The three children returned, very excited, and they brought back a large watermelon and cantaloupe for their parents.
"Mom, this was grown by Zhuang Yuanxi in our yard. We ate it today, and it’s really delicious. You and Dad should try it."
Tan Shaoting smiled and went to cut the watermelon. Su Yuanyuan smiled, looking at the three children, "How is it?"
"Nothing much changed, just feels quite empty."
"It’s good you still remember. You three can arrange your own time from now on. If you want to go back, let Chengzi accompany you."
"Mom, when do we go abroad?"
"We’ll go in October. There’s still time. Actually, even if you don’t know the language, there will be translators. The lawyers going this time all speak the language there."
"Mom, we’ll study law tomorrow, and the language there won’t be a problem, either."
These three don’t trust outsiders apart from their parents. Tan Shaoting told them never to pin their hopes on others, so they don’t need translators.
"After work tomorrow evening, I’ll take you to see your uncle. Do you remember Yang Chunsheng?"
"Isn’t that the second uncle from grandma’s side?" Qi Hong asked.
"Yes, it’s him. I haven’t seen them for a long time. Only he and his wife know about the incident with you and your father; your grandma doesn’t know."
Tan Shaoting came out with the cut watermelon. The way it was cut was how his wife used to cut it for the kids.
"Yuanyuan, try it. It’s really sweet."
The family gathered to eat watermelon, and the children talked about matters at the garrison.
The next day, a lawyer came by. They were really curious why Minister Su wanted the three children to learn this.
Upon meeting Qi Yan and the others, they were amazed by the three equally exquisite and beautiful children.
After greeting, Qi Yan started, "Lawyer Liu, we want to ask how to be recognized as lawyers?"
"In the country, you need the judicial examination, handled by the Ministry of Justice.
Internationally, there’s also an examination required, again under the Ministry of Justice."
"Lawyer Liu, is there an age limit for the exams?"
"No explicit stipulation, but generally, it’s university graduates in this field who take the test."
"So, there’s no age requirement. Is there an educational requirement?"
"There isn’t. In the country, it’s more straightforward. International lawyers are more complicated because language proficiency is a must, and you also need to understand international law."
"Lawyer Liu, can we take the exams? When are they held?"
Lawyer Liu felt slightly displeased; the children, despite being pretty and charming, seemed so conceited. Isn’t this daydreaming?
"This is one of the five books on international law. It’s not just about reading through it; you need to understand its meaning."
Qi Yan nodded. "Lawyer Liu, we can learn with you; we just want to know the exam procedures."
"There are two exams each year. One in April and one in October."
"Do we register in advance? Is a recommendation necessary? How do we sign up?"
"It’s a must to register in advance, and recommendations are also required."
"Then, we’ll trouble you, Lawyer Liu. How long does it take to register domestically?"
Lawyer Liu felt these children were joking, but he, being in his forties, didn’t show his displeasure.
"You need to register by phone, and an ID and recommendation letter are required."
Qi Yan nodded, "Understood. How about this, Lawyer Liu, we’ll start learning today. If you recognize us after a week, please help us with the recommendations."
"Your ages are too young."
"Didn’t you say there was no age requirement?" Qi Wen asked.
Lawyer Liu didn’t know how to respond.
"Lawyer Liu, let’s start learning. Please inquire if we can register! If so, we need to know what’s required, and we’ll handle it ourselves."
"Alright, let’s start with international law. I’ll bring all the materials and books in the afternoon."
And so, the learning began. Within just ten minutes, Lawyer Liu was impressed. These kids were truly remarkable, able to memorize quickly and grasp concepts instantly.
He began to see what they meant by checking after a week.
Chengzi came over with milk. Qi Yan looked up, "Lawyer Liu, where can we find the legal codes you mentioned?"
"I have two copies at home, and each of us five has them too."
"Uncle Chengzi, could you and Lawyer Liu bring back the legal codes? It’s too time-consuming for the three of us to share one copy."
"Alright. Lawyer Liu, I’ll leave it to you."
"No problem, no problem. I’ll definitely get three sets."
Only the three siblings were left in the room.
Qi Wen sipped her hot milk, "Brother, is it too flashy?"
"I checked; there are others who have a photographic memory like us here. Besides, with Mom being so smart, our memory skills aren’t that flashy.
You two also noticed that Mom’s been putting in a lot of effort for our sakes. Moreover, since she’ll be dealing with foreigners more in the future, learning this will help her."
Qi Hong and Qi Wen had no objections; among the siblings, the elder brother had the final say.
"I’ve finished the first book already, and this Lawyer Liu seems capable. His annotations are good. Who wants to go next?"
