Su Min couldn't help but feel relieved when she saw Qi Cuiping smiling, and looked at Qi Cuiping with a smile and said, "Hehehe, the third child is a teacher, the aura just now is so strong, I was almost scared by you." My parents are also teachers, and I have been afraid of teachers since I was a child. ”

"Oh, what school are your parents in? Maybe you still know each other?"

"My father Su Xuefeng is in the Chinese Department of the Teachers College, and my mother Li Qiuping is in the third middle school. ”

"You're the eldest girl of Teacher Su's family?......"

Glancing at Su Min, who quickly got closer to the third aunt and had a good conversation, Qi Jingtao returned outside to greet the guests.

The banquet has been set up, relatives and friends who have not seen each other for many days are sitting at the wine table, happily smoking and bragging, chatting, facing the table full of wine and food, no one moves chopsticks, just waiting for the grandmother to pay birthday in batches, happily receive their respective red envelopes cousins and birthday stars to enter the table.

Qi Jingtao poured cigarettes and wine for relatives and friends one by one, and after a circle, grandma and grandchildren also came out to enter the table, and when they saw the birthday star at the table, everyone also moved their chopsticks.

As soon as Qi Jingtao sat down among the brothers of the same generation, he was called by the third uncle to their table to accompany the wine. Looking at Su Min, who was sitting next to her grandmother in a well-behaved manner, helping her grandmother peel shrimp, Qi Jingtao sat on the seat reserved next to her eldest uncle.

Today's dishes are unprecedentedly rich, and through the cooperation of chef Uncle Shi and Su Min, the delicacies of the mountains and the sea are combined. The wine is also Wuliangye, Yunnan red wine, Dali beer, and complete beverages that rural people dare not ask for. While relatives and friends were slightly surprised, they also had a great appetite and happily drank and ate.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the atmosphere at the banquet was more enthusiastic. Qi Zhengming and Qi Jingtao father and son respectively came back from a round of wine on behalf of their own family, Qi Jingtao sat down to peel a shrimp, and looked at the eldest uncle who was talking to his father.

His great-uncle Wang Wenxin has always been engaged in the infrastructure industry, originally as the head of the commune's infrastructure team, and later as an infrastructure contractor, and set up a construction company by himself a few years ago.

Recalling Lao Qi's message last night, he thought about it slightly in his heart, and said, "Auntie, have you gotten the project over there?"

Wang Wenxin took a sip of wine, turned his head and said happily: "I'm still running the relationship, it's almost there." That's a big project, and if you get it, you can do it for a year or two next year. ”

It's good that it's not done yet, Qi Jingtao was slightly relieved, looked at Wang Wenxin and asked slowly, "Auntie, is your family from the military?"

"Yes, they are engineers in the army, they have a hard relationship, and they are second-level contractors. This time, a friend introduced me to a relationship with them, and I can subcontract the project of a road section. ”

After Wang Wenxin finished speaking, he looked at Qi Jingtao with some suspicion, "Xiaotao, how do you know that my project this time is going to be subcontracted from the army?"

Qi Jingtao ate the peeled shrimp, looked at him with a smile and said, "Hehehe, auntie, you said that you forgot about the wine during the New Year?"

"Did I say that? hey, hey, I can't remember, old man, I don't have as much memory as you young people. Xiao Tao, why did you think to ask about this?" Wang Wenxin patted his head and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Hehehe, I heard a situation that in the future, the army will not be allowed to do business. ”

Qi Jingtao still revealed what Lao Qi told him. Although he still did not understand why Lao Qi sent him a note, telling him that in July 1998, the central government issued a document that the Chinese army was no longer doing business, and asked him to prevent Wang Wenxin from going to Malong to do highway engineering. But the absolute trust in Lao Qi formed by stock speculation, he knew that since Lao Qi had specially notified him, his aunt would definitely not have a good result if he won that project.

Wang Wen was startled, glared at Qi Jingtao and asked softly, "Where did you hear about it? Why is there no rumor outside such a big thing?"

Qi Jingtao took a sip of wine, looked at the nervous Wang Wenxin and said, "Definitely not, even if there is, it's not something that you outsiders can know." Like you're going to subcontract this project now, how many people know?"

"Hehehe, that's what happened. Xiao Tao, what do you mean by this?" Wang Wenxin was relieved, he was going to do this project or the news from other people, and those people in the army had only eaten a few times, gave some gifts, and were just familiar with each other.

He is a small rural construction company, and if it doesn't sound good, he is just a big contractor, so how can he know any news from within the army? If the army is unable to do business, the project will be suspended, and who will ask for the project money at that time?

And this nephew is not simple now, I heard my little aunt say that he will speculate on any stocks for 10,000 yuan, and he will earn more than one million yuan in two months. It's almost just in time for the assets he has worked so hard to accumulate in infrastructure construction for more than ten years, and he doesn't have hundreds of thousands of cash to use casually. It is said that he made money by speculating in stocks, just because he had some inside information. Well, this kid is terrible now, and his opinion is worth listening to.

Qi Jingtao didn't know the turbulent waves in Wang Wen's confidence, and continued: "Auntie, now that I am engaged in construction, the phenomenon of subcontracting layer by layer is too serious. After you subcontract, do you have to subcontract again?"

Wang Wenxin said disapprerovingly: "Most of them are doing this now, what's so strange?"

"It's not strange, it's normal. Hey, hey, auntie, you're the last level of subcontracting to those foremen, right?"

Qi Jingtao knows a little about these situations, and the superior department of the information center where he works is the engineering technology department, and there is an infrastructure section in it. A group of engineers and technicians often mix together, and they know a lot about engineering projects.

"It's basically the work of those people. Wang Wenxin doesn't need to hide anything from his nephew, tell the truth.

Qi Jingtao seemed to understand the crux of the problem, looked at Wang Wenxin and asked, "Is the advance payment of the salary at your level?" Auntie, do you know who the higher-level contractor is, and has it been higher?"

Wang Wen's confidence was a little hairy, and he frowned and said depressedly: "How do you know this? I only know that my predecessor is from the army, and they are second-level contractors, and I also listened to what my friend said." ”

Qi Jingtao looked at Wang Wenxin and said without hesitation: "Auntie, don't touch this project." ”

Wang Wenxin looked at Qi Jingtao in surprise, and after half a sound, he said unhurriedly: "Just because of the news you heard? Can you tell me, where did you hear that news?"

"No, you can't. And, leaving this table, I won't admit that I said the news. Auntie, there are engineering projects everywhere now, don't touch this kind of inexplicable engineering at home. ”

Of course, Qi Jingtao couldn't say that Lao Qi told him the news from the future, but he believed Lao Qi.

Wang Wenxin is a good person, and he has always been very caring for his relatives and friends, Lao Qi definitely didn't want him to suffer a big loss in undertaking this project, so he specially sent that note yesterday. He knew that he would meet his aunt who was often away today, and he had the opportunity to remind him.

Although Qi Jingtao himself didn't understand what Lao Qi meant, he knew from the stakes of project contracting that the project that Wang Wenxin wanted to contract was not protected by law, and once something happened, Wang Wenxin's loss would be irreparable, and it would be difficult for him to turn over with his family body.
