Chapter 39: The Tide of Time Reversed
"Ahh As soon as Ding Xiaoding felt that the dantian was hot, before he could tell Lao Zhangtou and the others, he felt that a wave of heat erupted from the middle of the dantian, flowing along his limbs and hundreds of bones throughout his body. Immediately afterwards, the aura erupted from every pore of Ding Xiaoding's body, blowing in all directions like a violent wind.
Ge Xiangong and King Qin Guang's eyes were quick, and they flashed in front of Ding Xiaoding from left to right. Ge Xiangong pinched his hands with a solemn expression, and the void point was at the center of Ding Xiaoding's eyebrows, and a fine light shot out, which hit Ding Xiaoding's eyebrows along the way, and then turned into a light curtain, which was tightly attached to Ding Xiaoding's body, and then hid in his body, protecting Ding Xiaoding's body.
King Qin Guang stretched out his arms and snorted slightly, and two mana powers were struck, instantly forming a blood-red net, blocking the manic aura emanating from Ding Xiaoding's body.
Even though the two reacted quickly, the aura emanating from Ding Xiaoding's body still shattered the wine glasses and other objects on the coffee table. The crystal chandelier on the roof of the living room was also directly scattered, and the ground was in a mess.
Fortunately, there is not too much aura in the elixir, and Lao Zhangtou and the others can live in a low grade, so they are not injured.
"My crystal lamp, my mousse goblet......" said Lao Zhangtou with a distressed expression.
Ding Xiaoding's strength seemed to be taken out by the aura in the dantian. As soon as the aura dissipated here, I felt that my body was completely hollowed out. The head is heavy, the eyes are black, and the head is down. King Qin Guang on the side stepped forward and took Ding Xiaoding into his arms, looked at Ding Xiaoding, who was already in a coma with sweat, and frowned and asked, "What's going on?" ”
"The aura in the pill failed to integrate into Xiao Ding's body, so it erupted." Ge Xiangong stepped forward and came to Ding Xiaoding's side, stretched out his fingers, put them on Ding Xiaoding's neck and tried it, and said with a slight sigh of relief: "It's just that I'm prostrating, it's not a big deal." ”
"How can it be okay, look at the things in my house, they are all broken." Lao Zhangtou said distressedly.
Ge Xiangong directly ignored Lao Zhang's head, raised his finger and pointed at Ding Xiaoding's eyebrows, and used his own mana to help Ding Xiaoding regulate his body. Then he got up and said to King Qin Guang and the others: "You help Xiao Ding take some water, and after a while, he will be fine." I'm going to look into what went wrong. After saying that, he turned around and went up to the second floor.
"You'll have to take it easy." Lao Zhangtou did not forget to give a word.
Ding Xiaoding slept very sweetly this night, and it was already the morning of the next day when he opened his eyes again.
Yue Lao was sitting next to the sofa, and when he saw Ding Xiaoding open his eyes, Yue Lao completely relieved his heart, picked up the water cup on the table and said with a smile: "Wake up, drink saliva first." ”
Ding Xiaoding rubbed his eyes, sat up, took the glass of water and took a sip, feeling his body, there was nothing wrong with being a little weak.
"The elixir failed?" Ding Xiaoding dimly remembered that he was full of strength at that time, and he raised his arms and yelled as if venting, and he didn't know anything.
"There was a little mistake, Ge Xiangong and King Qin Guang have gone to buy new medicinal materials and are ready to improve." Yue Lao smiled.
Ding Xiaoding nodded, looked at the mess around him, and wondered, "Damn, there was an earthquake?" ”
"The aura didn't melt into your body, it just emanated." Yue Lao said: "The Jade Emperor has already taken the Giant Spirit God to re-purchase the objects, it's not a big deal. ”
Ding Xiaoding nodded, it seems that it is really not a simple matter for mortals to absorb aura, even Ge Xiangong missed.
I looked at the electronic watch on my wrist, and it was already ten o'clock in the morning. Missed dinner and breakfast in the stomach, can't help but start to protest.
Hearing Ding Xiaoding's stomach growling, Yue Lao smiled slightly, "Hungry, let's go, I'll take you to eat." ”
Ding Xiaoding smiled, nodded and got up and stretched, and was about to go out with Yue Lao, but the mobile phone rang.
took out his mobile phone and saw that it was a call from Li Lianqiu.
"Hey, Brother Li." Ding Xiaoding answered the phone and said with a smile on his face.
"Xiaoding, where are you now?" Li Lianqiu's tone on the other end of the phone was slightly solemn.
"I'm at the company, what's wrong?" Ding Xiaoding asked.
"Is there time for noon? The bidding thing is out of the spread pool. ”
Hearing Li Lianqiu's words, Ding Xiaoding couldn't help frowning, and said, "At noon Hongfu Restaurant, let's meet and talk." ”
After hanging up the phone, Ding Xiaoding saw that there were three missed calls on his mobile phone, all of which were from Xianhan. hurriedly dialed back, the phone beeped twice, and Xianhan connected the phone.
"Ding Xiaoding, it's only the second day of taking office, and you're late to play missing, isn't it a little inappropriate?" Xianhan said in a slightly dissatisfied tone.
"I'm sorry, General Manager Xian, I drank too much last night, and my brain was groggy and overslept." Ding Xiaoding casually gave an explanation, and Zhengse said: "Just now Li Lianqiu called me, saying that there was a bit of a difference in the project of changing thousands of schools, and I have already asked him to meet and chat, and Hongfu Chinese Restaurant will come later." ”
"What's the difference?" Xianhan asked.
"I don't know for the time being, but listening to Li Lianqiu's tone, it should be MG's move." Ding Xiaoding had already learned from Li Lianqiu yesterday that he and Zhou Hengguang, the general leader of the project, would have a dinner with MG last night. And now that Li Lianqiu has called and said that he has a business trip, it must have something to do with MG.
"Okay, I'll go over right away, let's meet." Now the 1,000-school replacement project is the main task of the sales department, and any affairs will be put after this project.
At twelve o'clock at noon, in the private room of Hongfu Chinese Restaurant, Ding Xiaoding, Xianhan and others came to Li Lianqiu. The three of them exchanged a few polite words, and Li Lianqiu took the initiative to turn to the topic.
"You two, I had a light meal with the deputy mayor and the MG senior management last night, and I already told you about this in advance, right?" Li Lianqiu said.
"That's right, did MG make a move last night?" Ding Xiaoding asked.
Li Lianqiu shook his head slightly, frowned and said: "Last night, MG sent two representatives, one is the general manager of Chu Jie, that is, the former general manager of Chu Jie, called Wang Guang. The other is the general person in charge of MG's bidding this time, a little girl named Xingtu. ”
"Little girl?" Xianhan frowned.
"That's right, it's just a little girl." Li Lianqiu's expression was a little weird and confirmed: "That little girl is no more than sixteen years old, but she is indeed the representative of MG." ”
"What's wrong with this girl called Star Rabbit?" Ding Xiaoding asked, before he came, he thought that MG had made a move, and he guessed it.
Li Lianqiu smiled bitterly and said: "That girl and Wang Guang just blindly toasted and persuaded the dishes from the beginning to the end, and what they said from beginning to end was only five sentences related to the change of thousands of schools. After the end, I had a side probe of the deputy mayor, and I was still disappointed with the deputy mayor of MG. And he also said that among all the bidders, we are the most satisfied with Kangtong Group. ”
"Isn't that great?" Xianhan was very happy when he heard Zhou Hengguang's attitude towards his company.
Ding Xiaoding on the side knew that there was a follow-up to the matter, if it ended like this, then Li Lianqiu should talk to him today in an inviting tone. It shouldn't be the weird demeanor of this bitter smiler that is shown now.
"Did things change otherwise?" Ding Xiaoding asked.
"That's right." Li Lianqiu said: "Just this morning, MG's bid has been delivered. ”
"Oh? So fast? Xianhan's spirits perked up, but his brows instantly furrowed again. According to the regulations, there is a fixed date for the delivery of bids, and in order to prevent the content of the bids from being leaked, the bidding companies will choose to deliver the bids on the same day as the regulations. The act of sending bids to MG in advance is extremely risky. Once the competitor learns of the price and offer it offers, the competitor will adjust the bidding conditions in time and defeat it at a small cost.
There are only two explanations for this behavior. First, the MG bidder is a fool. The probability of this possibility in the rapidly growing MG company is basically zero. Then there is only the second possibility for this matter, that is, MG has absolute confidence in winning the project and has absolute confidence in its bid.
Xianhan frowned and asked, "What are the conditions for their bidding?" ”
"To be honest, the concessions given in MG's bid, the products it provides, and the estimated time to complete the project are not top-notch," Li said. I think even ordinary small companies give a little higher discounts. ”
Xianhan and Ding Xiaoding glanced at each other, looking a little puzzled.
"Here's what their bid is, take a look." Li Lianqiu handed over the phone, and it was a picture he took.
Ding Xiaoding and Xianhan took a closer look together, and the prices and conditions given by MG can only be described as ordinary, without any bright spots at all.
"In this way, we are the only strong opponent to win this project, and there is no need to worry." Ding Xiaoding said that now that he has learned the conditions of MG's bidding, Kangtong is fully capable of comparing it.
"That's what I thought at first, but strangely, when I sent the MG bid to the deputy mayor, the deputy mayor was very satisfied with the MG. Compared with the last dinner, the attitude has changed 180 degrees, and there is even a direct decision to settle the project to MG. Li Lianqiu frowned and said: "That's why I informed you, hurry up and submit the bid, we can list the conditions one by one, make an overall comparison with MG, and let the deputy mayor think about it." ”
Hearing this, Ding Xiaoding and Xianhan were stunned for a moment. If it weren't for Li Lianqiu's serious and solemn expression, both of them would have thought that Li Lianqiu was joking with them. Just imagine, how could MG be so satisfied with Zhou Hengguang that he directly gave them the project.
"It's all my own people, I'll tell you the truth." Ding Xiaoding thought for a while and said: "In my opinion, MG Company can win the praise of Vice Mayor Zhou, and it is definitely not because of the bidding book. Maybe last night, there was some other connection between them and Vice Mayor Zhou. ”
Ding Xiaoding's words are very straightforward, which means that MG gave Zhou Hengguang a reason not to choose them. And this reason is not that the preferential conditions given by MG for the project should be for Zhou Hengguang personally.
Li Lianqiu nodded slightly, which he also thought of.
"That's it." Ding Xiaoding thought for a while and said, "Brother Li, can you arrange it, we Kangtong want to have a light meal with the deputy mayor." ”
