Lu Wen and Fang Zheng came outside, thought for a while, and Lu Wen said to Fang Zheng: "What kind of gifts should we bring this time?" "This time, the first is to ask for errands, and the second is to visit the elders, and the gifts must not be casual.

Fang Zheng said with a smile: "Didn't Grandpa Shi say yesterday that he wanted a carving, the carving you just made on the stage was very good, and you can use this as a gift." ”

Lu Wen thought for a while, and nodded in agreement, today's carving is a pair of red sunshine river, carved on a pair of wooden boards, although it has not been carefully carved, but this is more in line with the rough and heroic temperament of the red sunshine river.

After the two discussed, they came to the gate of a compound together, the place where Old Man Shi and Old Fang lived was very close, this place was provided for by the state for these retired old cadres, and the environment and defense inside were first-class.

After passing the inspection again, they walked to the gate of Shi Lao's courtyard, there were already people waiting at the door, this was when they came in, the doorman had already called to inform Shi Lao, this was Shi Lao's secretary, just like Lin Cheng was Fang Lao's secretary.

But this middle-aged man looked like a soldier, and the military style was undoubtedly revealed between the walks, Fang Zheng was a little cringe when he saw this middle-aged man, but looked at Lu Wen beside him, gritted his teeth, and stepped forward and said respectfully: "Uncle Tiger." ”

Lu Wen looked at Fang Zheng with some amusement, he had never seen Fang Zheng's appearance, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, Uncle Tiger saw Fang Zheng greeting him, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if he was smiling, he said: "Come in, the chief is waiting inside." ”

As soon as Fang Zheng heard what he said, he hurriedly walked inside, Lu Wen smiled slightly at Uncle Hu, and then followed Fang Zheng towards the inside, and after a while, he saw Shi Lao sitting in the sun listening to the radio, looking happy.

Fang Zheng and Lu Wen hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, Shi Lao looked up at them and said, "Sit down, why do you think about me today, is there something wrong with me coming here." ”

The two sat down, Fang Zheng handed the carving brought by Lu Wen to Shi Lao, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Shi, where are you talking about, didn't you say you wanted a carving yesterday, didn't Lao Lu go to the Ministry of Education to test it today, and carved this red sunshine river, I want to see if you like it, if you like it, you will leave it, if you don't like it, let Lao Lu turn around and re-carve." ”

Shi Lao smiled and said, "You little slippery head, okay, I'll take a look first, if you don't have an appetite with me, then if you have something to do today, don't open your mouth." "People are old and refined, not to mention people like Shi Lao, he can't see that the two people in front of him have a purpose, but he doesn't care, this sentence just now is also a joke.

Shi Lao took the carving and looked at it, and then he was attracted, the carving on the wooden board did not have a particularly complex pattern, only a big day and the rolling Yangtze River, but this simple picture has a heroic atmosphere in circulation.

Rolling Yangtze River East passing water, the Yangtze River on the wooden board is like the churning Yangtze River, full of a sense of majestic power, and the red sun hanging in the air is so dazzling, just like the road ahead is difficult, but there is infinite strength to break through those difficulties and obstacles, the hope in the heart is like the red sun in the sky, hanging high in the heart, shining on the road ahead.

Shi Lao looked at the carved wooden board and fell into deep thought, he thought of their time, they flocked to the battlefield one after another, using their lives as a torrent to break through those difficulties and obstacles.

When the old general Shi came to his senses from his contemplation, he showed a hearty smile and said to Lu Wen: "Okay, very good, I like this red sunshine river very much, let's talk about it, what's the matter." ”

Fang Zheng also knew that this was the best time, so he hurriedly said: "This, Grandpa Shi, didn't you say again that the military has an abandoned military region in Gangcheng, how is that place now?"

"Hehe, what's the matter? You two little guys also hit this idea?" Shi Lao didn't answer Fang Zheng's question, but asked with a smile.

Lu Wen said: "Shi Lao, didn't I go to audit the opening of a small academy today, I successfully audited, but because of the tight time, I did not choose the address of the school in advance, I heard from the old party that you have an abandoned military region here, I want to see if there is any hope of becoming the site of our primary college." ”

After listening to Lu Wen's explanation, Shi Lao laughed, and then said, "You really dare to think that you actually want the military region as your academy address." Although Shi Lao knew that Lu Wen applied for the elementary school alone, he didn't care about these, and he didn't know how shocking it was for Lu Wen to do this alone, so he didn't care at will.

Fang Zheng saw that Shi Lao had the intention of refusing, and hurriedly said: "Grandpa Shi, it's a waste to put that military region there, isn't it very good to make a school for us, and we won't lose a penny, as much as we want." ”

Shi Lao was immediately happy when he heard his words, and said: "The tone is not small, let's not talk about the rest, do you know how much it costs to take this military region station?"

"How much?" Lu Wen and Fang Zheng were very nervous at this point, after all, they also wanted to win this station.

"Five billion. Shi Lao said with four fingers.

Fang Zheng was a little embarrassed and stretched out his hand to break Shi Lao's thumb, and then said with a serious face: "Well, five billion." ”

Shi Lao was also a little blushing when he was so touched, and then coughed twice to cover it up.

Although Lu Wen also felt a little funny, but now he couldn't laugh a little, five billion, this number also scared him, although he knew that this was not a small number, but he didn't expect it to be so much.

Shi Lao looked at his appearance, and said with a smile: "Yes, five billion, not a single cent is missing, okay, you better put away your thoughts, and stay for dinner later." ”

Lu Wen and Fang Zheng were both taken aback by this number, and they didn't respond when they heard Shi Lao's words, although Lu Wen didn't care about how much money it was now, but five billion was indeed too much, and now he didn't have much money himself, and the billion they said some time ago was also what they had when they took out all their family funds, and there was still water in it.

It wasn't until they asked again that Lu Wen and the others reacted, and Shi Lao looked at them and said, "Okay, don't think about it, let's eat." ”

After Shi Lao finished speaking, he was about to go to dinner, but Lu Wen suddenly stopped him and said, "Shi Lao, can you pay in installments." When he said this, Lu Wen had a firm face on his face, he really didn't want to give up such a good school station, if he missed such a village, there would be no such store, just now Lu Wen was frightened by this number, and secondly, he was thinking about how to raise so much money.
