This time, the province's investment in the expressway is really quite large, and 50 million yuan can no longer be said to be a symbolic investment, which has already pointed to nearly 12 percent of the total investment, that is to say, in the next 50 years, the income of the expressway will be divided into 12 percent of the profit, which is an astronomical amount!

However, the advantages of having provincial and municipal governments to participate in the operation of the expressway are also obvious, and many things are easy for the government to do, but Zuojiang is not short of the 50 million yuan at all now, and it is a huge profit that has been divided, although there are some emotions in the heart, but there are still many places that rely on the government to build the expressway, and the government is not to be blamed for doing so, after all, 88 percent of the money is still earned in its own hands, in a word, it is worth it!

Thinking of this, Zuo Jiang said: "Uncle Tao, since the province has decided, I have no opinion, even if the province can't come up with the money, I will build this highway with full funding, the traffic situation in our province is too poor, no highway means backwardness, now I have this ability, so, I must do something for my hometown!" ”

"Xiao Jiang, have ambition! I read you right! Tao Yong was very happy to hear this, he thought for a while and said: "However, the competition for this highway is no longer your family, as soon as the plan in the province was determined, someone smelled the wind, there are two large companies in the south have found the main leaders of the province through the relationship, and revealed to the province that they want to participate in the construction of the expressway, although I am inclined to your company, but after all, the provincial party committee is not my word, and there is a problem of democratic centralism, so the bidding must strictly implement the bidding system, it is said, These two big companies are also very powerful, you can't take it lightly, you have to prepare early, work the bidding, and I won't be biased towards one side at that time! ”

Zuo Jiang didn't expect that such a project also had people who wanted to grab food with themselves, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous, in addition to the 50 million yuan of provincial and municipal joint investment, they must raise 100 million US dollars by themselves, since these two companies want to go on, that is, they can afford this money, and now there are such powerful companies in China are undoubtedly companies with very strong backgrounds, and they really can't take it lightly!

Thinking of this, Zuo Jiang said: "Uncle Tao, what are the names of these two companies and what are their origins?" ”

Tao Yong said: "I don't know the specifics, I only know that one is called Lingnan Road and Bridge Construction Corporation, and the other is called Sitong Expressway Construction Company, which is said to be a very famous large company in the south, and when Vice Governor Zhang, who is in charge of transportation, reported to me, I just listened to it and did not ask in detail, because the specific bidding plan can only be finalized after the year, and it is too early to say anything!" ”

Zuo Jiang suddenly thought, since it is the provincial plan as soon as the two companies get the news, obviously the people involved in the study of this program in the province revealed the rumors, Vice Governor Zhang in charge of transportation can find Tao Yong to talk about this matter, must have a lot to do with him, although Secretary Tao said very calmly just now, it is not difficult to see that he already has an opinion on this Vice Governor Zhang, the plan of the expressway should be a secret before it is officially announced, obviously Secretary Tao has realized that this Vice Governor Zhang has revealed the news, so, Secretary Tao just listened to the report and didn't say anything.

Zuo Jiang concluded from this that his company still has an advantage in this competition, as long as the preparation is sufficient, the probability of defeating the two provincial companies is still very large, although Secretary Tao said that he will not favor either side, but he is the initiator of this plan, judging from his attitude towards Vice Governor Zhang, in the end he will definitely lean towards himself! On the other hand, the two companies have only expressed their intentions, and it is difficult to make up their minds if they do not see the development of China in 10 years, so the motives of these two companies need to be further observed.

At this time, the sound of firecrackers outside has been one after another, resounding throughout the night sky, and the hands are almost pointing to twelve o'clock, and the new year is coming soon! Liu's mother's dumplings have been cooked, and they are served on the table one by one, and the table is placed in the living room, so you can watch TV while eating dumplings!

When the needle pointed to twelve o'clock and the New Year's bell rang on the TV, Zuo Jiang and Tao Fei picked up firecrackers and went to the door to set off them, Secretary Tao and Yao Jinghua and his wife and Liu's mother also followed.

The sound of firecrackers to welcome the New Year sounded, the gorgeous fireworks bloomed openly, the red firelight illuminated everyone's smiling face, tonight is so warm, tonight is so gorgeous, Tao Yong's family's mood is like the brilliant fireworks in the sky, blooming with incomparable joy!

After setting off the firecrackers, as soon as he walked into the living room, Zuo Jiang bowed to Tao Yong and saluted: "Happy New Year Uncle Tao!" Then he bowed to Yao Jinghua and Liu's mother respectively and saluted and greeted the New Year! Finally, he greeted Tao Fei for the New Year: "Sister, Happy New Year!" ”

Tao Yong and his wife, Tao Fei and Liu's mother were so happy to see Zuo Jiang so well-behaved, Tao Yong hurriedly said to Yao Jinghua: "Hurry up and give Xiao Jiang a red envelope, you have to give a red envelope for the New Year!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes, look at what makes me happy, forget all the red envelopes!" Yao Jinghua said with a smile, while going back to the bedroom to give Zuo Jiang a red envelope, Tao Fei had prepared a big red envelope for Zuo Jiang in advance, so he took it out and handed it to Zuo Jiang: "Little brother, this is the red envelope that my sister gave you!" ”

The red envelope must be collected, not a matter of how much money there is, it is a matter of family affection, Zuo Jiang took the red envelope and said, "Thank you, sister!" At this time, Yao Jinghua also came back with a red envelope, and saw that Tao Fei had already given Zuo Jiang a red envelope first, so he smiled and said: "Xiaofei is still thoughtful, and the red envelopes have been prepared in advance!" As he spoke, he gave the red envelope to Zuo Jiang and said, "Xiao Jiang, take it, this is a little bit of your Uncle Tao and Auntie's heart!" ”

Zuo Jiang took the red envelope and said, "Thank you, Uncle Tao!" Thank you, Aunt Yao! At this time, Liu's mother walked out of the kitchen with a red envelope in her hand, everyone didn't pay attention to when she entered the kitchen, she walked up to Zuo Jiang and said: "Xiao Jiang, this is the red envelope that Aunt Liu gave you, although the money is a little small, but this is Liu Jie's heart, you must accept it!" ”

Liu Ma's actions surprised everyone, Zuo Jiang looked at Liu Ma's kind smile, did not hesitate, took the red envelope, bowed deeply, and said, "Thank you, Liu Ma!" ”

The Spring Festival party is still going on, five people around the table specially placed in the living room while eating New Year's dumplings while watching TV, if you don't know that Tao Yong is the secretary of the provincial party committee, it seems that this is an ordinary family in the Northeast, enjoying the New Year's happiness together, the scene is very happy and warm!

Eating New Year's dumplings, Zuo Jiang saw that it was almost one o'clock in the middle of the night, so he got up and said goodbye, although there is a habit of New Year's vigil in the Northeast, Secretary Tao will have a New Year's group meeting with the old cadres tomorrow, although Aunt Yao's body is much better, she can't stay up late, she needs to rest. Yao Jinghua saw that Zuo Jiang was leaving, so he kept him to stay, Zuo Jiang refused her on the grounds that he was going to his grandfather's house tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings, and seeing that Zuo Jiang couldn't be kept, the family sent Zuo Jiang out.

Tao Fei said: "Dad, Mom, Liu's mother, you should rest early, I will drive Zuojiang, and then go directly to the hotel, no need to leave the door for me!" ”

Tao Fei naturally did not go back to the East Lake Hotel, but went to Zuo Jiang's house together, this night was destined to be a sleepless night for them, Zuo Jiang's big bed became the scene of their love, until dawn and the two fell asleep tiredly.

Li Shuyuan came back on the evening of the first day of the new year, Zuo Zheng came back at noon on the third day of the new year, and the family of three was finally reunited! Sun Qiaomei also came back from her parents' house with Xiaobao, Li Shuyuan saw that Zuo Zheng was back and immediately ordered Sun Qiaomei to cook, because this was the first reunion dinner of the whole family in the New Year, so she attached great importance to it and personally went to the kitchen to help.

Zuo Jiang was very concerned about his father's Zuo Zheng's work, and the two sat on the sofa in the living room and chatted. From the chat, I learned that Zuo Zheng had helped Li Zhengyang solve fifty wagons in three batches, although Zuo Jiang was a little reluctant in his heart, but after all, it was his father's decision, and he would not interfere, so he just scolded secretly in his heart: It's cheap!

Chatting and chatting about the work matter, Zuo Zheng said: "On the first day of the new year, Vice Minister Shi came to our railway bureau to inspect and express condolences to the cadres and workers, and when we chatted, he told me that the ministry has decided to flop the cards for the Jinghua Railway Bureau and the Liaodong Railway Bureau, and it will be officially announced after the New Year!" After flopping, I am at the deputy ministerial level and deputy minister, Xiao Jiang, do you think it is necessary for me to be transferred to the local government again? ”

Flop is a common phrase in informal railway occasions, that is, the meaning of unit upgrades, this news is sure that Zuo Jiang's heart is very happy for his father, from the main hall to the deputy department, how many people can not cross the gap in a lifetime! And after he was reborn, his father walked all the way from the deputy hall to the height of the deputy department in two and a half years, which is undoubtedly a fortunate thing!

Zuo Jiang didn't think much about Zuo Zheng's words, so he said with great certainty: "Dad, it is the best choice for you to transfer to the local area, although you have become a deputy minister, but after all, you are still the director of the railway bureau and not the deputy minister, if your bureau has a major accident, you can't keep this deputy minister, I am very worried about the safety of the railway this year, so I have the idea of letting you go to the place, if you mention that you are at the deputy ministerial level, you can also find a good position in the local area, and the organization will definitely consider it in the arrangement, Dad, don't hesitate!" ”

Zuo Zheng listened to Zuo Jiang's words and didn't say anything for a while, but was thinking carefully, for his son Zuo Jiang, Zuo Zheng is very trusting, and many things are developing according to his assumptions, which feels very magical, so Zuo Jiang's words will be seriously considered now, after thinking for a while, Zuo Zheng finally made up his mind and said, "Okay!" Xiao Jiang, I'll listen to you this time, and do it according to the original plan! ”
