In order to avoid unnecessary impact, when the car arrived at the intersection of the county intersection, Shen Huai signaled the driver to stop and let Zhou Qian go down.

Zhou Qian's bad mood had not yet been cleaned up, so she got out of the car in a panic, and looked at the slightly dilapidated black Santana sedan going down the street, feeling lost and empty, and walked along the boulevard to the school......

On both sides of the boulevard are tall metasequoia trees, shaded by thick shade, Zhou Qian walked in the middle, her body felt a little cold, and her heart was also a little cold.

Zhou Qian returned to school, pushed the door into the office, and the teacher in the same office said to her: "Zhou Qian, your sister just called and said that she had booked a ticket to come back next Wednesday......

Hearing that her sister, who she hadn't seen for a long time, was going back to China next week, Zhou Qian's bad mood was a little better. Even if they can meet next week, Zhou Qian is eager to talk to her sister on the phone at this time, and she didn't ask some things clearly, next Wednesday is next Wednesday in China, or next Wednesday on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, a day away.

It's just that the phone in the office doesn't talk about international calls, even domestic calls can't be unplugged.

Zhou Qian thought that there was no class for her in the afternoon, and wanted to take the bag to the post office to call, steal for a long time, change her mood, and turned around to find that she didn't bring the bag back to the office at all, and thought for a moment before confirming that she had left the bag in the car of the new county magistrate.

Zhou Qian only felt a headache, and was about to call Wang Weicheng with the office phone, but the phone in the office happened to ring at this time, which startled Zhou Qian.

The call was made by Wang Weicheng:

"I saw you get off the bus, and you went to school. It's good that you're at school, I'll see a guest in Beishan later, and I'll send you over by the way, you wait at the school and don't leave. ”

Zhou Qian thought to herself that Shen Huai and Wang Weicheng saw that her bag was left in the car, so they didn't chase after her, but didn't bother to let Wang Weicheng send it over alone, probably to avoid suspicion, right?

Zhou Qian is not completely ignorant of this society, thinking that the county magistrate is so deliberately avoiding suspicion, she should have no special thoughts about herself, but thinking of Xu Zhi's misunderstanding, she can only sigh weakly in her heart, and a terrible emotional depression is in her heart, and she feels very uncomfortable.

Zhou Qian thought that she was going to the post office to call her sister, so she made an appointment with Wang Weicheng to meet at the intersection of the school.

Walking to the intersection, watching Wang Weicheng drive the slightly dilapidated black Santana from the other side of the street from a distance, Zhou Qian waved her hand to signal her to cross the road, and did not need Wang Weicheng to make a special U-turn, but when she just crossed the road, she saw Xu Zhi standing in the shade of the street with an ugly face.

Zhou Qian just waited for Wang Weicheng to come over, and Xu Zhi, who didn't pay attention, was standing under the tree not far from him, and at this time his heart jumped a little nervously, knowing that Xu Zhi must be thinking crookedly again when he saw this situation.

Wang Weicheng also saw Xu Zhi, thinking that Xu Zhi was probably arguing with the two, his mind was a little clearer, and he ran to the school to find Zhou Qian to reconcile, but he didn't expect that sometimes things are just coincidences, seeing him driving over to deliver a bag to Zhou Qian, he thought that he was probably going to drill the horns again.

Wang Weicheng didn't want to make a fuss about nothing, if he caused a fire in his backyard, it would be really unreasonable, so he handed the bag to Zhou Qian through the car window, and ran away in the car.

Zhou Qian got the bag, looked at Xu Zhi's ugly face and turned around and left, stepped on high heels, crossed the road to catch up, and almost scraped off a car, and didn't care about the driver's ugly scolding and fear, caught up with Xu Zhi, and said, "Can you listen to my explanation......"

"What else is there to explain?" Xu Zhi's handsome face looked at Zhou Qian distortedly, with an indescribable irritability in his heart, and asked coldly.

"I took Wang Weicheng's car back to school, the bag was left in his car, and he sent it back to me, can you not think about it elsewhere?" Zhou Qian felt uncomfortable with such a misunderstanding, but thinking about the relationship for more than two years was not easy, she still said with a playful temperament, "Wang Weicheng is my sister, my brother-in-law's classmate, I have known him for more than ten years, you will never doubt what I have with Wang Weicheng, right?"

Zhou Qian was afraid that Xu Zhi would want to go elsewhere, and she didn't dare to say that the county magistrate sent her back to school with Wang Jian.

Xu Zhi had a disgust in his heart, his eyes stared at Zhou Qian's face coldly, as if he saw the vanity that disgusted him from that beautiful face, and immediately exposed her lies, and said: "Is it still necessary to lie?

Zhou Qian didn't know that Wang Weicheng and Shen Huai had already heard them arguing in the lobby on the ground floor of the Zhujiang Building, and seeing Xu Zhi questioning it like this, it was also a concluding sentence, and she didn't know how to explain it.

And she was afraid that Xu Zhi would misunderstand just now, so she deliberately said that she would take Wang Weicheng's car back to school, and then she wanted to say that Shen Huai asked Wang Weicheng to drive the bag over in order to avoid suspicion, it would be too late. She could only look at Xu Wei's strange face with no explanation, and her heart sank to the bottom.

Seeing that Zhou Qian no longer explained anything, Xu Zhi only thought that his guess was correct, and his heart became more and more embarrassed, and he didn't look back to the bus stop, watching the bus coming, no matter which bus, when the door opened, he went up directly.

Zhou Qian squatted on the side of the road with her bag in her arms, so sad that she wanted to cry......

Xu Sheng didn't see the scene of Zhou Qian and Xu Zhi arguing, only saw her squatting on the side of the road, signaling the driver to stop the car, poking her head out and asking, "Is Teacher Xiao Zhou unwell?"

"Ah......" Zhou Qian looked up at Xu Sheng, and it took a while to react, and she shook her head in embarrassment, "It's nothing, it's just to rest on the side of the road for a while, and I don't want to rush back to school." ”

When Xu Sheng heard Zhou Qian say that he didn't want to go back to school, he was overjoyed, hurriedly opened the car door, and said with a smile: "Your school doesn't have classes? By the way, wait for Lao Zhang of the health school to have dinner and talk about the merger of vocational schools, Mr. Xiao Zhou, you are also a member of the preparatory group of the education group, come and participate......"

Zhou Qian's heart was empty, she felt that she had nowhere to go, she just wanted to leave here as soon as possible, and got into Xu Sheng's car in a daze, and she didn't notice that the eyes of the front driver from the rearview mirror were a little weird, and Xu Sheng's eyes were even more greedy to look at her curvy body......

*********************

Xu Zhi breathed a bad breath and took the bus back to the city, and did not go back to the design institute, but returned home directly.

The exterior walls of the tube building built in the 70s have not been painted with cement, the red bricks are directly exposed, there are obvious traces of weathering, and the railings are also rusty. The corridors are crowded with cabinets for each house, and you can smell the sour smell mixed with diapers when you enter the building, which is not particularly strong, but it does exist, and when you walk into the corridor, the corner can be used, and the residents are called to pile up briquettes and other sundries, and there is only a very small space left for people to fold up and down the stairs.

Xu Zhi got home, threw the bag into the corner, pushed the door and walked into the room, slammed the door irritably, and lay on the bed as if he was dead.

It's just that there is nothing to smash in his room, a bed is so small that he can roll down, and the rest of the space can't even fit a desk, and a wooden board is used across the two walls to serve as a writing desk.

The door squeaked open, and Xu Zhi didn't have to look up to know that his mother was outside and saw him coming home.

"Didn't you say that you had something to do at work to go to Xiapu, and then take Zhou Qian to see her, why did you come back so early? Quarrel with Zhou Qian? I said you should also think about getting married, both of them are twenty-seven years old, the family is not easy to live, the unit is not divided into houses, I think it is good for you to buy a small commercial house to get married first. Didn't you say that Zhou Qian's salary can be raised every month and a thousand five, then the two of you have a combined salary of two thousand five or six, I will ask your uncle and them to make some money, Zhou Qian's sister and her brother-in-law are abroad, it is always easy to borrow 350,000 yuan, first go to Nanyuan to buy a house for you to get married, you two have such a high salary, and it will be ...... to pay off the debt in the future."

"Chatter, you can't stop chattering!" Xu Zhi sat up angrily and yelled at her mother, "House, house, where can people see the dilapidated house in Qianyuan." People want to live in villas and western-style buildings, and people want to live in villas and western-style buildings. Villa bungalow, do you understand? Where can I buy it for her......

gave his son a sudden seizure and made him a little confused, Xu Zhi stood at the door in a daze, silent for a long time, and then chattered and said: "I don't understand the villa and the western-style building, but Zhou Qian is a very good girl, look at your house, there is nothing valuable, it is like a pig's nest, what is there to call her picture, can she fall in love with you for two years?" However, it's okay if you want to break up, Zhou Qian is too beautiful, and she may not be able to live a hard life all the time, I'm afraid that I won't be able to keep it if I want to stay in the future, and I won't be optimistic about you for a long time, but you can't hold back the problem in your heart......"

Xu Zhi pushed his mother out of the door, took the satchel in the corner, and locked the door.

"Dididi", the pager in the satchel sounded without losing the opportunity, Xu Zhi threw the satchel aside, turned his head and continued to lie down, turned over and sat up after a while, and turned the pager out of the satchel, showing the mobile phone number of the director Wang Mingda.

Xu Zhi ignored it, pulled the quilt to cover his eyes, and continued to sleep with his eyes closed, but it was impossible to fall asleep with his mind chaotic.

I didn't get up to eat for dinner at night, Wang Mingda called twice more when it was dark, Xu Zhi didn't pay attention to it, and at about nine o'clock, the pager next to the pillow rang again, and Wang Mingda called him when he picked it up.

After lying down for a long time, Xu Zhi calmed down a little at this time, and it was just a matter of losing love, and he would never have anything to do with that vain woman in the future, and he would never lose his job again.

Xu Zhi turned over and went downstairs, went to the small shop to borrow a public phone to go back, the director Wang Mingda knew that others were in the city, and he didn't ask why he didn't paging back in the afternoon, so he asked him to go to the Jinding Club to drink.

Jinding Club is an old relational of Vice President Zhang Hua, and the design institute wants to entertain customers for entertainment and pastime, and go to Jinding more after dinner. If Xu Zhi happens to be able to accompany the customers to eat with the leaders of the hospital, he can occasionally follow him over for entertainment. He was really not in the mood today, but Wang Mingda didn't seem to expect him to refuse, and hung up the phone before he could find an excuse.

It was inconvenient to call again to explain, Xu Zhi thought that rushing over to drink would always be considered work, so he stopped a taxi and went straight to the Jinding Club, and when he walked into the box, he saw the director Wang Mingda and the vice president Zhang Hua, and Chen Zhirang, the project manager who accompanied the construction of Zhujiang, was drinking inside.

There were already three girls accompanying the wine in the box, all of them with pure appearances, sitting next to Wang Mingda, Zhang Hua, and Chen Zhirang, and they had already drunk a stubble before Xu Zhi came over.

Looking at Xu Zhi coming, not only Chen Zhirang sat up straight, but also looked at it eagerly, and Zhang Hua, the vice president who usually doesn't look at the ordinary designers under his hands, stood up enthusiastically at this time, grabbed his shoulders, and asked with concern: "It's rare for Manager Chen to agree to go to our dinner, and I also think that you and Manager Chen are familiar with eating together to contact each other." I asked Wang Mingda to call you several times, but I didn't see you back, is there something wrong?"

"I forgot to bring the pager. Xu Zhi lied.

"Wang Mingda, you will give Xiao Xu a mobile phone tomorrow, a better one, and take the ticket to my side for reimbursement, which is my special approval," Zhang Hua simply and decisively instructed Wang Mingda, "You make a business volume, and the yard will not even give a mobile phone, not to mention anything else, and it is not convenient to contact customers." ”

"I'll do it tomorrow, I'll do it tomorrow. Wang Mingda was busy and agreed.

Xu Zhi was a little flattered and didn't understand what was going on, but Zhang Hua's "caring and caring kindness" made him feel a lot more evil in his heart, and he finally felt good.

Sitting down on Xu Zhi's shoulder, Zhang Hua asked again: "Do you know any girls, or let me arrange one for you?"

Xu Zhi is not good at this, but he also knows that sometimes he needs to act on the spot, otherwise it is not appropriate for him to be tall alone, so he owes his body and says: "Just do it......" He is so proud, and he understands this bit of sophistication.

"Yes, I know you young people like to look at faces...... Zhang Hua laughed, stood at the door of the box and called the public relations manager to come over and arrange a girl for Xu Zhi to accompany the wine.

Singing, drinking, and chatting made Xu Zhi's mood better, but Zhang Hua's next tentative words made him feel bad again: "Xiao Xu, I heard that you know the county magistrate Shen of Xiapu?"

"I don't know. Xu Zhi didn't want to offend Vice Dean Zhang Hua, but he couldn't control his voice and replied to his words.

Fortunately, the lights in the box were dim, and the rotating light strip did not hit Xu Zhi's face, and the noisy music also covered Xu Zhi's deformed voice.

Xu Zhi's face was blush, and he figured out the sinister plan of Vice Dean Zhou Hua to pull him over.

Chen Zhirang didn't know what Xu Zhi was thinking, but he didn't think he was deliberately hiding anything, so he leaned over and said to Zhang Hua: "Xu Gong may really not recognize County Magistrate Shen." You don't deal with County Magistrate Shen once or twice, you talk about it, who has not had some hard skills over the years, and can get the special care of County Magistrate Shen? I pondered, it should be the draft of the plan that XCMG participated in the design this time, which won the heart of County Magistrate Shen, XCMG should be about the same young as County Magistrate Shen, I have been with County Magistrate Shen for many years, and I found that County Magistrate Shen particularly likes to use people who are about the same age as him, and it is estimated that it is more ...... the way of thinking."

Chen Zhirang said this, but Wang Mingda, who was sitting next to him, disagreed:

Xu Zhi has been transferring his subordinates for two years, and he has a few catties and taels in his hands, can he still be unclear?

It can't be said that Xu Zhi doesn't have any ability, polish and polish well, and he will still have the ability to take charge of some cases in two years, but he can't pick any big beams at the moment. Especially in the design institute that gathers backbone designers and specializes in Meixi and Xinpu engineering design business, Xu Zhi, who has just been transferred in, can't even squeeze in the middle level, and can only be said to have some potential at present.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, in this draft plan, Xu Zhi didn't do much work except to help out, how could he get Shen Huai's favor because of this?

Wang Mingda guessed that it was for other reasons, so that Shen Huai was particularly optimistic about Xu Zhi.

However, Wang Mingda does not speculate randomly, in short, the meaning of Shen Huai's hope that Xu Zhi's performance and play today is clear, and there is no falsehood. Shen Huai is optimistic about people, no matter what the reason, don't say that Xu Zhi still has some goods in his stomach, even if Xu Zhi is a straw bag, the design institute must be promoted and reused.

Of course, Wang Mingda also understands why Zhang Hua is so eager to win over Xu Zhi, in the final analysis, Zhang Hua wants to run his own company with the design institute.

However, even if Zhang Hua can assign some key designers to the new company, Wang Mingda also decided to come forward for Zhang Hua to set up a new company, but they are worried that they may not be sure to pull the business of Meixi and Xinpu with tens of millions of design fees per year from the design institute to the new company.

Chen Zhirang's words made Zhang Hua quite emotional, nodded and said: "What Manager Chen said is also that if you want to match the taste of County Magistrate Shen, you still have to have a little hard ability to become - Pengyue's President Zhou needless to say, the foundation of the Zhou family is already thick, but Penghai's President Yang, Meigang's Zhao Zong, Pan's Zong, Huailian's Zhao, as well as your Zhujiang Zhu, Ziluo's Chu, which is not ** has a very real ability?"

Chen Zhirang could see that Xu Zhi was a little unhappy, and he didn't know what the reason was, but when he heard them mention the names one by one, he was ashamed of himself, patted him on the shoulder cordially, and said with a smile: "Don't look at our President Zhu's current scenery, before meeting County Magistrate Shen, the situation was miserable, and your Dean Zhang has long recognized our President Zhu, let him talk to you about our President Zhu's family history......"

"Aren't you afraid that Mr. Zhu will know that you poke his old bottom behind your back?" Wang Mingda joked, Zhu Li's embarrassment before making a fortune, Wang Mingda was also clear.

Zhu Li used to be the manager of the city construction company, and he knew Wang Mingda and Zhang Hua, but it was only in the past two years that the scale of Zhujiang construction has developed so much that the entire city planning and design institute has to rely on the business of Zhujiang construction to eat, so he feels that Zhu Li's status is far from being comparable to them.

"Our Mr. Zhu, we can't be vague with him when doing work, and the others are very casual. I often see him shirtless, pulling someone to drink on the side of the road, and his favorite is pork head meat, peanuts, and preserved eggs mixed with tofu. If you pull someone on the side of the road and point to him and say that he has a net worth of hundreds of millions, no one will believe him if he is killed. Chen Zhirang said with a smile.

Although Xu Zhi held his breath in his heart, when he heard Chen Zhirang, Zhang Hua, and Wang Mingda talk about the trivial things of these rich people named Zhen Donghua, his attention was still attracted.

Whether it is Zhou Zhibai of Pengyue, Yang Haipeng of Penghai, Zhao Dong and Pan Cheng of Meigang, Zhao Yicheng of Huailian Heavy Industry, Chu Yiliang of Zhujiang Investment, Zhu Li of Zhujiang Construction, and even Chen Tong of the newly rising Pengyue Lianshang, they are all rich people who can make Donghua tremble three times by stomping their feet.

Before, these characters were too far away for him, although there were people in the design studio who liked to talk about this, but Xu Zhi always felt that it was boring and vulgar - did the lives of those rich people have anything to do with them?

Therefore, he has heard most of these names, but he doesn't care about the stories behind them.

If it weren't for the fact that the chief designer who accompanied Wang Mingda to Xinpu today had something to do temporarily, Wang Mingda couldn't find another helper, and it wouldn't be his turn to accompany him, let alone meet with figures like Zhu Li and Chu Yiliang.

Zhu Li is a very casual person, Xu Zhi saw it with his own eyes today. They went to the construction site temporarily, Zhu Li was the driver himself, and the off-road vehicle was indeed a little "miserable", Xu Zhi didn't see that he had the style of the project manager below, but no matter how he guessed, he couldn't imagine that such a person had a net worth of hundreds of millions.

What is the concept of hundreds of millions?

Vice President Zhang Hua can pull more than 10 million business every year, and the hospital has specially equipped him with an Audi, and the annual business reward is also more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan.

It's really unseemly to think about it.

The estimated project budget of Xinpu Citizen East Square is close to 300 million, all of which are invested by Zhujiang Construction.

Seeing Xu Zhi's trance-like appearance, Chen Zhirang felt that his words were being questioned, and asked with a smile: "Why, Xu Gong also thinks that Mr. Zhu doesn't look like a person with a net worth of hundreds of millions?" To be honest, how much property the big boss above, we people below are also guessing, and we can't guess accurately, we can only roughly estimate, but some things are public. For example, Mr. Zhao of Meigang, although he only has 2% of the shares in Meixi Industry, Meixi Industry is now worth 5 billion, not to mention others, on this asset, Mr. Zhao of Meigang is a real billionaire. The old man who started with the county magistrate Shen in the early years, even if he is not all billionaires, does not have to worry about money in this life. XCMG, if you are prosperous in the future, don't forget our old brothers......"

Xu Zhi could feel that Chen Zhirang said this, the envy in his eyes was real, and he asked with some uncertainty: "Mr. Zhao of Meigang and Mr. Zhu of your company were all initiated with County Magistrate Shen?"

"Ah, you don't even know this, do you?" Chen Zhirang was stunned.

"XCMG usually focuses on business, and really doesn't know much about things in the city. Wang Mingda explained for Xu Zhi.

Chen Zhirang didn't have any suspicions, he entered the Zhujiang River for construction early, and he was very clear about the story of the Meigang system, knowing who Shen Huai had promoted and reused over the years, and ordinary people couldn't guess the context.

Chen Zhirang looked at Xu Zhi and pondered in his heart: Maybe it's really because this stunned young man doesn't know anything, so he has no intention of pleasing Shen Huai, and other people who deliberately want to vote for Shen Huai's appetite can't pretend to be under Shen Huai's eyes, and they also shake their heads and sigh secretly in their hearts, this is fate, looking at Xu Zhi's eyes more and more envious.

Zhang Hua looked at Chen Zhirang's expression, and became more and more determined to pull Xu Zhi into the house.

Although Chen Zhirang can only be regarded as a middle-level construction in Zhujiang, as an old man of Zhujiang Construction and Meigang, his judgment of Shen Huai's preferences should still be accurate.

After drinking, arrange a car to send Chen Zhirang home, and Zhang Hua directly pulled Xu Zhi in the box to talk about the formation of a new company.

I can't complain about Zhang Hua's eagerness, he wants to put the business of Xinpu Citizen East Plaza directly under the name of the new company, and the establishment of a affiliated company must be started immediately.

Xinpu Citizen East Square, the estimated project budget is 300 million, and even if the engineering design fee is discounted according to 1%, it is a huge amount of two or three million.

This amount of money is a small amount for Meigang, and if Zhang Hua continues to stay in the Municipal Planning and Design Institute, he will have to work hard for at least ten years to save this money.

Of course, without one or two key figures, Zhang Hua was not sure that the business would be transferred from the design institute to the new company.

Therefore, Zhang Hua also bluntly spread out to Xu Zhi and said: "Director Wang and I have also been planning for a while, and we want to run a company affiliated with the design institute. As for me, I want to continue to stay in the hospital, I want to resign, but I don't agree, and I have no choice but to let Director Wang take charge of the specific business of the new company. However, Director Wang also said that he was difficult to support alone, and he had to pick a few backbones from the hospital, counting them as partners, and he was the first to recommend you to me......"

The news of "......" was a little too sudden for Xu Zhi.

"Director Wang and I will pool 1 million to inject capital into the new company, so we will occupy more shares, and we will also take some shares to distribute to key designers, not too much. In order to prevent others from having opinions, I will allocate 100,000 yuan to you in my name, and count 10% of your shares. Of course, after the establishment of the new company, the first thing to do is to pull the business of Xinpu Civic East Plaza to the name of the new company. Striving to earn 3 million in design fees can be regarded as a jackpot for the new company. Xiao Xu, together with Director Wang, you want to do more work on the Xinpu side, how about it?"

"......" Xu Zhi was completely stunned, the business of Xinpu Citizen East Plaza was pulled over, and he accounted for 10% of the shares of the three million design fee, that is to say, he could get 300,000 yuan with a show of effort!

Seeing that Xu Zhi was silent and had no expression on his face, Zhang Hua felt a little tricky and exchanged glances with Wang Mingda.

Wang Mingda turned his back on Xu Zhi's vision and drew a "two" to Zhang Hua; Zhang Hua frowned, secretly feeling that Xu Zhi, this kid, usually looks stunned, but he is not confused, the three million is almost taken for nothing, and it is obvious that 600,000 yuan is not enough to satisfy his appetite.

Zhang Hua was ruthless, and said to Xu Zhi seriously: "Brother and you dig out your heart, 10% is reserved for the backbone designer, me, Director Wang and you, the three of us, in the company is not divided into each other, how about everyone take 30% of the shares, the new company injects capital and pays the funds to be affiliated, or I and Director Wang to ......"
