He couldn't be happy.

In China, most of the projects, except for those that are particularly large-scale and have to be done well for several years, are all given a deposit or no money in the early stage, and then paid after the completion and acceptance of the project.

There are even projects that are not paid for until a year or two after they are completed.

As far as Lu Fan knew, before Zhou Haitao's engineering team came, Mi Guiren had already given them an advance payment of one million.

At that time, the plan for this road was only 9 million, and 1 million was already more than 10% of the entire plan, which was no longer low.

It's only been a long time, and the road has been repaired less than halfway, and this kid dares to ask for money again, this is bullying Lao Tzu who doesn't know how to do it?

Lu Fan was a little angry, and it naturally showed it on his face.

As soon as Zhou Haitao saw this expression, he knew that something was wrong.

It's not that he doesn't know that he's going a little too far.

That's why he didn't dare to tell Mi Guiren, but found Lu Fan, who he thought might not understand well, hoping to take advantage of it.

He didn't want much money, just one or two million, let him deal with the urgency in front of him first.

After all, he did engineering, materials, and labor, and the money was not paid to suppliers and workers, so he should not be short of money.

But he really has a problem now, and the difficulty does not come from the construction site in front of him, but from his other construction site.

When he took over this project, he also took on another project of more than 20 million at the same time, and even put the focus of his work on that project.

Later, it was also because he found that the situation here was not simple, so he paid more attention to this side.

However, it was another construction site that he had high hopes for, and there was a problem, so that his current funds could not be turned over at all.

Therefore, even though he found that Lu Fan's face was not very good, he had to beg for mercy hard.

After all, if he can't get the money for an emergency, he is afraid that the construction site will be stopped soon.

At that time, he will only offend Lu Fan even more.

"Mr. Lu, I know that it is wrong for me to ask for money at this time, I have been in this business for many years, and I will not understand this truth. But believe me, if I really had any way, I wouldn't have opened my mouth at you!"

"I'm really in trouble now, it doesn't matter if something happens to me, it's a big deal to go bankrupt and go inside for a few years. But these brothers who follow me still have children to raise, and you can't delay this road!"

As he spoke, he was a big man, and he was about to shed tears.

Lu Fan sighed, although he didn't know what the reason was, but this guy was probably really in trouble.

This kid is not unreasonable, even if he doesn't care about his life or death, he still has to consider these workers under him, especially these workers recruited from Heitu Village, which are all his threads.

Lu Fan didn't want to be scolded by people from the neighboring village.

In addition, if something really happens to this kid, this road will definitely be stopped, and even if another engineering team is found at that time, the construction period will be greatly delayed.

"How much money do you need?" Lu Fan sighed.

"What, did you promise to help me?" Zhou Haitao was overjoyed.

He was ready to cry, but if he couldn't, he knelt down in front of everyone and pleaded.

Losing face and losing face are no longer important to him, and the life and death of the engineering team is the most important thing.

He didn't expect Lu Fan to let go so easily, which made him feel a little energetic and nowhere to go.

"Two million...... Oh no, one and a half million is enough, one and a half million is enough!"

Zhou Haitao has already calculated this number many times in his heart.

If you want to get through the current difficulties very well, you will definitely need two million.

But two million is too much, counting the previous one million, it is already one-third of the entire project, and his progress is just over one-third, so it is indeed too much money to ask for so much money.

So he said the lowest number, one and a half million.

As long as he has this 1.5 million, grit his teeth, and sell some face, he can get through this hurdle in front of him.

"Well, I see, I'll call. Lu Fan took out his mobile phone.

Of course, he would not give 1.5 million to Zhou Haitao, and this kind of thing can only be done by Mi Guiren.

"Well, thank you so much! You talk to Mr. Mi, and then I immediately feel the city myself, and explain this matter to him, and I will definitely ask for his understanding. Zhou Haitao followed Lu Fan and thanked him repeatedly.

"What are you doing in the city? Lu Fan gave him a strange look.

"Uh......" Zhou Haitao didn't know how to say it.

Can he still say, in fact, I don't really believe that you can ask Mi Guiren to give me two million with a phone call?

Of course he didn't believe it anymore.

His original idea was to ask Lu Fan to help say something good, and then he personally went to ask Mi Guiren to try to make Mi Guiren give him a favor.

Zhou Haitao has been in the Lianhai business district for a long time, and he knows that Mi Guiren is actually a little stingy, but there is no precedent for this kind of thing for him.

If you don't come to the door to ask for this kind of thing in person, Mr. Mi may have one for me!

Zhou Haitao muttered in his heart.

Lu Fan didn't think about him so much at all, after he dialed Mi Guiren's number, he opened his mouth directly:

"Lao Mi, the engineering team that built the road for me has found me, you can give them another two million, that's all. ”

After saying a word, he didn't know if Mi Guiren over there had spoken, so he hung up the phone directly.

Zhou Haitao listened to the call and almost didn't cry.

Big brother, are you helping me or are you hurting me?

Mr. Mi may have a good relationship with you, but even if the relationship is good, can he like you to help him get an idea?

Well, you have a good relationship, Mi may not hold a grudge against you, but he will hate me for being such a small person!

Zhou Haitao wanted to cry without tears, and he didn't even know how to express his current mood.

"Okay, I'll take care of this for you, don't get excited, go to work!" Lu Fan looked at Zhou Haitao, who was in a daze, and said a little unhappily.

"Hey!" Zhou Haitao sighed.

Where does he still have the heart to work now, he is about to be driven crazy by the debt problem.

At this moment, he inadvertently offended Mi Guiren again, and the possibility of getting money was almost zero. Just then, a text message on his mobile phone suddenly rang.
