Chapter 126: The Skirt Theory

At the beginning of June, the weather was already relatively hot.

However, the political climate in Beijing has begun to show signs of thawing, and the most concerning thing is that Chen Zhaowu, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and secretary of the Secretariat, was unable to take care of things due to illness, so he proposed to the Central Committee to leave his current post.

The Central Committee quickly approved Secretary Chen Zhaowu's request, highly praised Comrade Chen Zhaowu for upholding principles and making tremendous contributions to the country over the past few decades, and expressed condolences to Comrade Chen Zhaowu's illness, agreeing to his resignation as secretary of the Secretariat, member of the Standing Committee of the Central Political Bureau, and member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, and completely resigning from his leading post.

Echoing this, Comrade Chu Feng, director of the Central Advisory Committee, and Hou Dahai and Sun Zetao, deputy directors of the Central Advisory Committee, proposed to the Central Committee that before the party congress was held at the end of the year, the Central Advisory Committee should be abolished, and the members and standing committee members who originally belonged to the Central Consultative Committee should completely withdraw from their leading posts and enjoy their old age in peace.

In this regard, the Central Committee has made a reply, holding that in the past 10 years, the comrades of the Advisory Committee have made great contributions to the cause of the country's reform and opening up, and now that the historical mission of the Advisory Committee has been completed, it has agreed to abolish it, and expresses its high respect to the comrades of the Advisory Committee.

"The tide has set." Ye Kai put down the newspaper in his hand and said a word to Zhong Liyu.

"You are very concerned about national affairs, why don't you see much of your business?" Zhong Liyu was wearing a thin bathrobe, combing her long hair, smearing some things that she didn't know what to call them, and then taking a lot of tools that Ye Kai didn't know what to call them to fix, in short, it was very complicated.

"You're in business." Ye Kai replied as a matter of course.

For Zhong Liyu, Ye Kai really let her do it, and basically never asked about the big and small things in the business, at most he grasped the general direction, occasionally listened to her talk about the recent investment direction or something, and then gave some reasonable or unreasonable suggestions.

Recently, Zhong Liyu's investment activities in the Soviet Union have been very frequent, truckloads of daily necessities and food have been transported over, and then truckloads of mineral powder, strategic materials and crude oil have been pulled back.

A few days ago, after Ye Ziping talked with Comrade Hong Zheng, the construction of the East China Shenyun large-scale shipbuilding base near Mingzhu City began, the shipbuilding base is based on building large ocean-going ships, and also receives some ship construction tasks with a displacement of about 1,000 tons, at present, more than 2,000 skilled workers and experts from the Black Sea Shipyard have settled in the base, and at the same time, technical personnel from all over the country have also begun to enter the base, and are being integrated in an orderly manner.

"The profits from the Soviet Union are still very good, basically investing 100 million US dollars in it, you can exchange 400 million US dollars for materials, and you don't have to worry about finding buyers." Zhong Liyu's mood seemed extremely happy.

Once upon a time, an outstanding female doctoral student who originally thought that she would spend a lifetime of tragedy for the family business suddenly came to work and became a woman standing behind the third-generation heir of the Ye family, controlling more than hundreds of millions of dollars in assets, not only for cross-border trade, but also for the chairman of the large shipbuilding base of Shen Yun in East China, such an opportunity is really unbelievable.

Recently, he has completed two rounds of material exchanges with the Soviets, and in addition to the expenses in various aspects, it has brought more than one billion dollars to Ye Kai, and this speed of making money really surprised Zhong Liyu, who knows the insider.

Of course, she also knew that if it weren't for Ye Kai, the old Ye family's deep background, the Soviets would not have been able to cooperate so happily, but no matter what, this feeling of making money was too enjoyable.

With this windfall, the idea of investing in the construction of a large-scale shipbuilding base in East China Shen Yun is no longer a castle built on the beach, but a large-scale engineering project that can be operated in real terms.

After tidying up her hair, Zhong Liyu changed into a lilac floral dress, which made her figure very slim, her body turned slightly in place, and the long skirt fluttered, very stylish.

"Why did you suddenly wear a long dress?" Ye Kai glanced at it and asked in some surprise.

Zhong Liyu's legs are very good, and her skin is very fair and tender, and she usually wears short skirts, which can attract perverts from half the street, but there are very few people who dare to get in and be bored, because now Zhong Liyu has four female bodyguards by her side at any time, all of whom are the kind with guns and licenses.

This kind of thing is done by everyone, and Ye Kai doesn't mind using public resources to improve the living conditions of his relatives around him, besides, these bodyguards are all raised by him at his expense, but he is not afraid of what others say, as for talking about guns and cards, now that Uncle Li, the Minister of Military Intelligence, is on stage, as long as he says a word about military needs, what things can't be explained?

"Long skirts are popular this year, and there are long skirts all over the street, if I wear a short skirt, wouldn't it look very unusual?" Zhong Liyu replied that she was quite satisfied with the long dress on her body.

"Fashionable long skirts......" Unexpectedly, after Ye Kai heard Zhong Liyu's words, he actually groaned a little, and said after a while, "It seems that the economic situation this year is not very good!" ”

"What does the trend of long skirts have to do with the bad economic situation?" Zhong Liyu said.

"Haven't you heard of it?" Ye Kai asked in some surprise, seeing Zhong Liyu's dazed face, he thought that now is not the next generation, and there is no convenient tool such as the Internet, Zhong Liyu, as a doctoral student in finance, does not know the long skirt theory, which is understandable, so he explained, "A woman's dress itself contains some economic principles. In 1920, the University of Pennsylvania economist George W. Taylor made a point: when the economy grows, women will wear short skirts because they want to show off the stockings inside; And when the economy is sluggish, women can't afford stockings, so they have to make their skirts longer. And this theory, which has been proven countless times in the United States, in the 1920s, when the American economy boomed, skirts began to get shorter. The Great Depression era came, and the long skirt was on its head again. In the 1960s, post-war reconstruction led to the economic take-off, and women's ** was able to see the light of day. In the 1970s, inflation hit, and long dresses became popular again. In the 1980s and 1990s, when the economy recovered, miniskirts reigned. American Ralph. Rottham even researched out that the Tao. The medium- to long-term trend of the Jones index is closely related to the length of the skirts of women on the streets of Paris. Jones index up; Conversely, when the skirt becomes longer, the Tao. The Jones index is down! ”

Zhong Liyu was dumbfounded when she heard this, "It's really fake?!" ”

"There should be some truth." Ye Kai smiled, "Basically, the prosperity of the economy is inversely proportional to the length of women's skirts. During economic booms, women's skirts will get shorter and shorter; Once the economy enters a recession, the short skirt becomes a long skirt. Because when the economy is not good, men do not earn much, women no longer need to use short skirts to attract men, and at the same time, women do not earn much, so they are in a bad mood and will use long skirts to cover their bodies more. ”

"Sounds like there's some truth to that." Zhong Liyu nodded, feeling that what Ye Kai said seemed to be true.

Immediately, her eyes lit up, "In this way, the strength or weakness of the economic situation has a great impact on women's clothing. ”

"The children can be taught, and they can all draw inferences." Ye Kai nodded with satisfaction.

"You're the son, who kept shouting for milk last night?" Zhong Liyu glanced at Ye Kai and said.

"Uh......" Ye Kai was speechless when he heard this, his rare old face turned red, and he continued to read the newspaper.

Although Zhong Liyu's body was very attractive, although she was wearing very thin, although Ye Kai felt that he could still fight hard now, but thinking that he would soon go to Comrade Chu Feng's house to meet Chu Yunsong, Ye Kai still restrained his **.

It is obviously not a good idea to go to meet Chu Yunsong, who may be the future father-in-law, with two black circles.

"What if you're going to wear that dress later?" Zhong Liyu rummaged through the wardrobe and gestured with some hesitation, "This color is old-fashioned, this color is too dark, this one is good, but it doesn't match today's weather." ”

Now Ye Kai is in Zhong Liyu's villa, which is also the love nest built by the two of them, the place is big enough and convenient.

In the wardrobe inside a room, there are hundreds of Ye Kai's clothes alone, which can be used to open a store.

"It's simpler, just wear a T-shirt and go over, Comrade Chu Feng doesn't like luxury, and I'm not good at showing off in front of him......" Ye Kai raised his head and commanded.

Zhong Liyu found him a gray T-shirt, light blue jeans, and by the way, she also turned out large-framed sunglasses and a tennis cap.

After Ye Kai changed his clothes, he looked in the mirror and said complacently, "It looks good, it's just a peerless beautiful boy!" ”

"Let's go, don't delay the time, the traffic in the capital is getting worse and worse." When Zhong Liyu heard this, she immediately burst into laughter and pushed Ye Kai out of the door.

Ye Kai looked up to the sky and laughed and went out, greeted his bodyguards Li Er and Li Wu, and drove to Qingfeng Villa on the outskirts of Beijing, Yunhaiju, and the mansion of the old man Chu Fengchu.

Sure enough, Zhong Liyu is right, the traffic situation in the capital is indeed relatively severe, although the number of people who own private cars is not very large, but the traffic pressure has gradually become prominent, Ye Kai took a cursory look, if the municipal government does not do effective guidance in a short period of time, it will suffer more serious consequences in the next few years.

When Ye Kai's eyes fell on the girls passing by on the sidewalk through the car window, he couldn't help but sigh, "Sure enough, it's popular to wear long skirts this year!" ”

Li Wu, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard this, she also wore a long skirt, the kind that was milky white with small pink flowers.
