The northern suburbs of Hongze, Meiling.

The usual silence was broken by the rumbling sound of the machine, and one bulldozer after another ran back and forth on the red soil, leaving patches of flat ground behind the tracks. The pile driver gasped for breath and smashed the steel piles deep into the foundation. Several cement mixing towers have been erected, and next to them are mountains of bagged cement. There are white ash sprinkled markings everywhere, and there are busy workers everywhere, so it is a boiling scene.

Compared with later construction sites, there are slightly fewer construction machinery here, especially the lack of the large tower crane known as the "Chinese crane", but in terms of the scale of the site, it is not inferior at all.

After receiving Qin Hai's formal application for the establishment of Anhe Institute of Materials, the provincial government completed all the approval procedures as quickly as possible, and allocated more than 5,000 acres of land in Meiling Mountain to Qin Hai, and only charged some symbolic use fees. For the provincial government, the benefits that the Institute of Materials can bring to Anhe Province are far greater than the value of the 5,000 acres of land.

Qin Hai sent invitations to several construction companies in the province and received a positive response immediately. Due to the overall economic downturn in China, the infrastructure has been greatly affected, and the project of the Institute of Materials is tantamount to a send-off for major construction companies. Several major construction companies have drawn the most elite engineering teams, carrying various construction machinery to the site. Prior to this, Qin Hai had asked experts from the Provincial Planning and Design Institute to assist in completing the overall design of the entire college, and as soon as the construction company was in place, they immediately set aside a piece and began intense construction.

Of course, Qin Hai would not build the entire academy at once, he divided the construction work into several phases. In the first phase, in addition to the construction of the fence and main roads of the whole college, all that remains is the construction of various buildings within the scope of less than 500 acres, including office buildings, real buildings, real workshops, dormitory buildings, boiler rooms, canteens, etc., Rao is so, and the total investment is also running to the scale of sixty or seventy million.

Qin Hai's requirements for the CEOs of several construction companies are to ensure quality, quantity and time. They are required to complete the construction task as quickly as possible without reducing the quality, so that the School of Materials can be operated in the fastest time.

During this period of time, those material experts invited by Qin Hai in various places have begun to go through the resignation procedures with the unit one after another. Since the intention of going has been cute, they will no longer delay, after all, Qin Hai promised them a high salary, and if they arrive one day earlier, they will receive the money a little earlier, who wants to wait for such a thing.

In the land that was assigned to the Qin Sea. It includes a youth cadre college, an office building, two teaching buildings, more than a dozen student dormitories and faculty dormitories, canteens, libraries, bathrooms and so on. After completing the handover procedures, all the teachers and students of the Youth Cadre Academy moved away, and the vacated space was just enough for Qin Hai to accept the scholars who came in a hurry.

"Teacher Sun, you're here! Welcome, welcome! ”

saw Sun Yuzhi's family getting off the car. Qin Hai hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Sun Yuzhi pick up his luggage.

Sun Yuzhi was embarrassed to ask Qin Hai to help. He grabbed the luggage and refused to let go, and said in a loud voice: "It's not heavy, it's not heavy, I can take it myself." ”

"Teacher Sun, give me the luggage......" Heizi came up with a few young workers, you and I took the luggage of Sun Yuzhi's family.

"Little Fu. Where is Mr. Sun's house arranged? Qin Hai asked Kuroko with his empty hand.

Kuroko shook the key in his hand and said, "I just got the key from Principal Long, and Teacher Sun lives in Unit 301, Unit 2, Building 3. ”

"Let's go, let's go home first." Qin Hai pointed with his hand. said to Sun Yuzhi.

The word "home" made Sun Yuzhi and his wife Wang Jin feel a little trance for a while. When they lived in the building, they imagined countless times what it would be like to be able to move into a unit building. Now that the unit building is in front of them, it is difficult for them to accept this change.

The 10-year-old son Sun Ze did not have the melancholy of his parents, and he had a sense of joy when he came from the cold north to the south. Just now, the big sedan car of the college picked them up from the train station, and when they entered the Meiling Mountains, he saw a large area of Yingshan red on the hilly slopes on both sides, which he had never seen as a child born in the city, and he felt that everything was so fresh.

Before leaving the capital, his parents told him that when he arrived in a new place, their family would have a large house, and he would be able to have a separate room. Hearing the uncle in front of him talk about going home, he was the first to rush to the front.

"Dad, Mom, look, this is Building 3, it's written on the wall!"

After running for a short while, Sun Ze happily pointed to a small blue sign nailed to the side of a residential building and reported to his parents as if he had discovered a new continent.

It was a three-story brick and concrete unit building, which looked like it was seven or eight percent new, and it was estimated that it was built less than ten years ago. The lime on the walls was freshly painted, the doors and windows were freshly painted, and a faint smell of paint could be faintly smelled in the air.

"This is the original staff dormitory building of the Youth Cadre Academy, which is a little dilapidated. After we took it over, we repaired it a little, Mr. Sun and Mr. Wang, you will live first. When our new campus is built, we will give you a new house. Qin Hai said in an apologetic tone.

"No need, no need, I think this house is very good." Sun Yuzhi said excitedly that although the relevant treatment had been agreed in advance, the feeling of actually seeing his own house was completely different from seeing the cold content on the contract.

The group entered the unit door and came to the door of 301. Kuroko opened the door with the key, and then handed the key to Wang Jin. Wang Jin took the key and held it tightly, as if he was afraid of losing it. Qin Hai smiled and said, "Teacher Sun, Teacher Wang, this is your home, please come in." ”

"Come in, everybody!" Wang Jin found the feeling of a hostess at the first time, she stepped into the door, and then beckoned to everyone.

"Wow, what a big house!" Sun Ze ran into the house with a smoke, looked at the two bedrooms, a living room, the kitchen, and the bathroom in the shortest possible time, and then recognized the room that belonged to him very smartly, plunged into it, and lay on his back on a single bed with only a bed board, pretending to be asleep.

"This kid!" Sun Yuzhi scolded with a smile, his voice a little choked.

"The house is not too big, with a construction area of only 62 square meters, which is the standard for middle-level cadres in the original school. There is also a room type for ordinary workers, which is 47 square meters and is also a two-bedroom apartment, that is, each room is a little smaller. Qin Hai explained.

"That's nice...... That's nice. Sun Yuzhi doesn't know what to say, a 62-square-meter house is the standard for professors in the University of Technology, and it is only a theoretical standard, and more than half of the professors can't share such a house. Now as soon as I arrived in Anhe, I lived in such a house, although Hongze and the capital are completely incomparable, but there is no house in the capital, no matter how good the city is, what is the use?

The main furniture in the house has been installed, and the kitchen has a gas tank and a gas stove, which is considered a high configuration in those days. Wang Jin instructed Heizi and the others to put down their luggage, and then began to hurriedly pack up, while Heizi and the others held her hand on the side.

Sun Yuzhi and Qin Hai walked to the balcony, Sun Yuzhi took out a cigarette case from his pocket, signaled to Qin Hai, and after seeing Qin Hai waving his hand and saying that he would not smoke, he took out one himself, lit a fire and took a puff, and then said: "Mr. Qin, now that I have come over, what you need to do, you can explain." I've already thought about it, and I'll leave it to you for the rest of my life. ”

Qin Hai said with a smile: "Teacher Sun's words are serious, I may just be an inn for you here, in a few years, when the country's economy is better and the school's treatment is improved, if you want to go back to the capital and go to a big research institution, I will definitely not stop you." ”

"No, if you come, you will be safe, I will not leave here." Sun Yuzhi said.

Qin Hai didn't argue about this topic, in fact, it's too early to say anything now, ten or twenty years later, who dares to guarantee it? He said, "Since you are here, you still have a long time to work, so you don't need to rush this time." You can rest for a few days and then we can discuss the work when your body recovers. ”

Sun Yuzhi said: "There is nothing to slow down, I just took the train for about 30 hours, and in the past, we went down to the factory, and we also took the longer train." Mr. Qin, just say, what should I do? ”

Qin Haidao: "Teacher Sun is really an anxious person, so let's do it, in the next few days, there will be some experts arriving one after another, and after everyone arrives, let's have a meeting to discuss the work in detail." These days, you should first think about the things in your field, including your research plan, the research conditions you need, such as practical equipment, books and materials, etc., make a list, and then we will solve it in a unified way, what do you think? ”

Sun Yuzhi nodded and said, "No problem, I'll start doing this right away." ”

As he spoke, he heard heavy footsteps on the stairs outside the door, as if someone was running down the stairs quickly. Everyone followed the sound and saw a head poking in from outside the door, clearly a little fat man around 10 years old. The little fat man glanced at everyone and asked loudly, "Are you new here?" My family is also new, and my dad said that you also have a child in your family, where is it? ”

Hearing the voice of a child, Sun Ze, who was lying in the inner room, ran out at once, staring directly at the little fat man. When the little fat man saw Sun Ze, he shouted happily: "Child, play with me, there are frogs in the ground behind our building!" (To be continued......)
