Sixty years with spring

Chapter 245

The Final Battle (1)

Saturday was a dreary rainy day, with no wind, a silky drizzle, gray sky, as if it was the rainy season in the south. Seeing that it was almost time, Che Hongxuan took a taxi and came to Gu Mingyuan's house again. Wu Yan opened the door gently, and saw that Che Hongxuan's face was white and red, and she felt very good. When Che Hongxuan entered the house and closed the door, she let go and smiled, handing over a pair of cotton slippers.

For this kind of cautious lifestyle everywhere and at all times, Che Hongxuan felt very awkward.

Wu Yan wore a light gray Adi T-shirt and white Nike running pants, the outfit was fashionable and simple, and the exposed places were white and flowery, and the shadow of the deep mountains and old forests could not be seen at all.

There are a lot of flowers in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, and it is incredible that there are also a few pots of mugwort, which are more than a meter tall and exude a unique fragrance. The curtains are tight, the lighting is soft, and the sound is full of warmth.

"Mugwort?" Che Hongxuan asked.

"He dug it up from the mountains and said he liked the smell. I think so, it's really fragrant. ”

"Don't wear these little shoes anymore!" Che Hongxuan simply entered the house barefoot.

Wu Yan accompanied him to the sofa and said with a smile: "I don't have any male guests here, so I didn't prepare larger slippers." It's so fun to be bored at home all day, it's rare to have a friend like you! ”

Che Hongxuan couldn't answer this conversation, so he sat on the sofa and asked, "He hasn't come back yet?" ”

"Never come back before eight o'clock." Wu Yan sat opposite with her legs spread out, picked up an apple and peeled it.

Che Hongxuan asked, "Is there any tea?" ”

"No, he never drinks tea."

"Then let's have a glass of boiled water."

Wu Yan handed him the apples and got up to get a bottle of mineral water in the refrigerator.

Che Hongxuan felt that it was better not to eat this apple and put it in the fruit basket. By the way, I looked around the room and saw that there were four seats at the table, and I knew that I might have to play mahjong again.

Wu Yan handed the mineral water to Che Hongxuan and asked, "Why don't you eat apples?" ”

Che Hongxuan explained: "I'm very thirsty right now, and I've just taken a shower. Do you want to play mahjong again? ”

"yes, it's still that broken, it's annoying! Anyone brings it back, no way, can't manage it, and don't dare to take care of it! ”

Che Hongxuan also felt that this was too much, after all, he was a national cadre, and if he did not restrain himself in this regard, he would be planted on it in the future.

Wu Yan asked: "I heard that you have a Forbidden City there, as well as Dongling and Beiling, one day I want to play, can you accompany me?" ”

"No problem!"

"You give me the phone."

Che Hongxuan gave her the phone number, and then said, "Tell him and let him take you to play." ”

"I've told him many times that if you don't take me again, I'll go myself."

The two chatted back and forth, and after a while, Gu Mingyuan gently opened the door and came back. Wu Yan greeted him, helped him take off his raincoat, and helped him go to the bathroom to change into a set of shorts.

Gu Mingyuan came over and sat opposite Che Hongxuan, and said talkatively, "I'm sorry to make you wait." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm not like you." Che Hongxuan immediately accompanied him with a few words, and said in his heart that it would be worth waiting for as long as he could drink this wine.

"It's convenient to drink here, it's free, and no one can see it. Tomorrow is Sunday, and we're happy. ”

"It's too hot and I don't want to drink too much."

"What is the heat on a rainy day? Drink to your sorrows! Gu Mingyuan stood up as he spoke, walked to a nearby hut and called: "Why haven't you arrived yet?" Waiting for you to eat! ”

"Mom and Dad are here, I'm not going."

"That won't do! Tomorrow is Sunday, and there is time. The car boss is here, you come over and let's have a drink together, and then play for a while. If you don't come to the three-in-one, won't you tear down the stage? ”

"Is it okay to tell you something? I don't care if you steal or rob, I'm going to use the money before eleven. ”

"You can't say everything on the phone!"

"You've got to give me a letter of approval, or I'll let my parents see you tomorrow."

Gu Mingyuan said: "I support the opening of a kindergarten in Dandong, and I can let your parents manage it for you." You can't go, and I don't want you to lose your political future. Behave well, I'll transfer you to the building in a few days. ”

"Okay."

Che Hongxuan knew that the person who was talking to Gu Mingyuan was Liu Yangyang. Liu Yangyang has opened a kindergarten in Dandong with her classmates these days, and the business is very good, so she wants to quit her job and go back to work alone. For this reason, he asked Gu Mingyuan for an investment fund, but Gu Mingyuan never gave a positive reply. Gu Mingyuan was reluctant to let go of this woman who could sing and dance and had all kinds of amorous feelings, and he didn't know which nerve was stubble with him, maybe it was the same smell. Yang Xiaohong's beauty and Wu Yan's youth only give him a sense of possession, and Gao Juan and Liu Yangyang are the women he really likes.

Liu Yangyang's parents also did not agree with her leaving her job and working alone, so they specially came from her hometown to persuade her.

Gu Mingyuan put away the phone, came out and looked at Che Hongxuan and said, "Wait a minute, Liu Yangyang will come in a while, and everyone will sit together." ”

Che Hongxuan nodded and asked, "What should I do with what I told you on the phone?" ”

Gu Mingyuan was silent and asked: "It's hard to do it." What do you think? ”

Che Hongxuan said: "First, all the steel frame materials have been delivered to the construction site, and the completed part has been accepted, and this part should be paid in accordance with the terms of the contract; Second, the progress payment should also be paid in advance, because the price of aluminum ingots has risen, and the project cannot be done until the progress payment is not made; Third, the price of aluminum ingots rose by 13,000 per ton, totaling more than 210 tons, and the price difference of nearly 3 million should be determined to be paid. As for the price increase of glass and other materials, I can afford not to pay for it, so there is no need to mention it. ”

Gu Mingyuan thought to himself that it was really better to have more than one thing, and trouble was coming. He didn't smile on his face, turned on the TV, looked for a program to watch for a while, and then said: "There is no problem with the steel frame, do it as soon as possible, accept and pay; Progress payment is only a matter of time, you hold on a little longer, according to the contract, not to accommodate the supplier; There must be a process for the spread, and it is difficult to say to what extent it will be handled. Everyone is watching, and you can't do it hard. ”

Che Hongxuan said: "Now the construction site has lost power at both ends for three days, and people are panicking, and it has been impossible to carry out normal construction for several days. ”

Gu Mingyuan said unceremoniously: "Someone reported that you discussed with the power installation team and went on strike before the price difference was given, is there such a thing?" ”

Che Hongxuan will not shy away from it, and replied positively: "Everyone is worried about the future, and it will inevitably be reflected in the work." But we will never take this approach, and we will definitely maintain a good cooperative relationship with you. It is clear that the unavoidable problem is that the steel frame and progress payment are not in place in time, and it is difficult to maintain the construction site. If the price difference is not clear, the project will definitely lose money, and even if you want to do it, you can't do it. ”

Gu Mingyuan frowned and asked, "You have been working for so many years and you don't have any money in your hands?" ”

Che Hongxuan sighed and said, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have the strength to operate such a big project." Due to the price increase, there are difficulties now, no matter how difficult it is, you have to help me. Otherwise, if you can't cross this hurdle, where will there be any happiness in the second half of your life? ”

Gu Mingyuan knew that this was true, and he narrowed his eyes in consideration.

Che Hongxuan asked: "Can it be like this, when accepting the steel frame, the thermal insulation window frame that has been dried is also accepted, and the progress payment is paid in proportion?" ”

"How much is the steel frame and progress payment?"

"The steel frame is more than 500,000 yuan, and 40 percent of the progress payment is 5.2 million yuan."

"These two things, you go to the infrastructure construction office tomorrow to find Director Liu, explain the situation clearly, and let him speak. I'll call him and ask him to receive you. The price difference involves thousands of households, and it is easy to move. Originally, we were doing good things for everyone, but if we raise money at every turn, everyone will doubt our purpose in doing this. Housing prices can't go up, that's my principle. ”

"Everyone knows that the price of materials has increased, and they will understand it when you talk to the owners."

"Don't say that there are more than 5,000 in a family, even 500, no one wants to take it."

"What then?"

Gu Mingyuan scratched his head and said: "I have never spoken for so many years, so I may have to go back to my words." ”

Che Hongxuan understood that this was about housing prices, so he further said: "Now that housing prices have risen wildly, it is the same everywhere in the world, and everyone knows it." ”

Gu Mingyuan nodded and said, "Strive to get back the steel frame and part of the progress money first, and don't delay the work." In the future, I will look at the business department to see how to deal with it. You've worked so hard and you've made a lot of effort, and you can't let your work be in vain. ”

Che Hongxuan said: "This is the only way out at present, otherwise I will be a dead end." ”

Gu Mingyuan stood up and said, "There needs to be a necessary procedure to make thousands of families willing. Good things are grinding, you don't overburden your thoughts. ”

Che Hongxuan cried and said: "When the catastrophe is coming, where will there be no heavy ideological burden?" ”

Gu Mingyuan waved his hand and smiled: "Drink well for a while, after all, I have the final say." Come with me and look at these pots of mugwort. Once I went to the mountains, I felt that no flowers or grass were as fragrant as it, and it was originally something in nature, so I dug it up and raised it at home. How's that, do you like the taste? ”

Che Hongxuan flattered: "You are really whimsical, this taste reminds me of going to the South River to play when I was a child." There are a lot of mugwort growing there, one by one, and one person comes to the high, which is the smell, which is really fragrant. ”

Gu Mingyuan said with a little sadness: "Domestic flowers do not have the fragrance of wild flowers, and wild flowers are not long in time." I don't know if this mugwort can survive in winter, try it this year. ”

Che Hongxuan said: "I don't know anything about this. ”

Gu Mingyuan explained to him what the pot of flowers was called, when it bloomed, and what fragrance it had.

After not much work, Wu Yan answered the phone to open the door, and Liu Yangyang arrived.

Liu Yangyang took off his raincoat and revealed a white summer dress.

Gu Mingyuan said to Che Hongxuan in a low voice: "Don't think about anything, you will definitely return with a full load." Let's go, let's sit down and drink. ”

With these words, Che Hongxuan put his mind at ease, because he knew Gu Mingyuan's temper, and he would definitely do it.

Liu Yangyang went to the bathroom, Wu Yan sat down and picked up the liquor, poured it for Che Hongxuan first, and then poured it for Gu Mingyuan; Pick up the red wine, pour it for Liu Yangyang first, and then pour it for himself.

Gu Mingyuan picked up Liu Yangyang's goblet and took a sip, mixed it with white wine, and then waved his hand to signal not to make a noise.

Liu Yangyang saw it at a glance and asked, "Why is my glass of wine light?" ”

Gu Mingyuan said: "Let's not talk about this first, you two volunteered, who will accompany the car boss?" ”

Che Hongxuan hurriedly gave his hands to the blank: "Don't, I'm drinking with you." ”

Liu Yangyang sat at Gu Mingyuan because he had a holiday with Che Hongxuan, and Gu Mingyuan had no choice but to let Wu Yan accompany Che Hongxuan.

Liu Yangyang said: "This white wine is red wine, don't you have to get drunk when you drink it?" Don't drink! ”

Gu Mingyuan said expressionlessly: "There is no difficulty in front of us-----

"It's the difficulties that don't have you in the face!" Liu Yangyang took over the conversation and said, "Either you drink!" ”

Gu Mingyuan said solemnly: "Drink, if there are any difficulties, we will overcome them together." No, there is also the big boss opposite, not to mention a glass of wine, no matter how big it is, what is it? ”

Liu Yangyang understood, slapped the table and said forcefully: "Okay, since you talk about this aunt, you will admit it!" ”

"What?" Gu Mingyuan also patted the table lightly, and then raised his glass to everyone.
