Chapter 141 I can’t calm down even on weekends

On Friday, Xing Yi received a call from Qin Xiaozhen. Qin Xiaozhen asked him: "You helped to do it. How is the Jiashan Dagou plan?"

He replied: "It's finished. I was a little busy a while ago and didn't have time to contact you. I'll deliver it to you tomorrow or Saturday."

"You don't need to send it. You can give it to Hu Yanli and she will forward it to me."

"I'm resting, it's okay."

"It's okay, don't come."

"Oh," he realized a little, "is that one...in the hospital?"

"Not yet. The due date is approaching. The admission procedures have been completed. It will be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I want to stay at home for one more day."

"Go in early, there are doctors and nurses here, so it's safe and secure."

"Thank you."

"No thanks, you still have to remember to work after this? No one can replace you?"

"It's not appropriate to leave the things I handle to others. It's better to start well and finish well."

"Let me ask, how much do you know about the specifics of this plan?"

"Why do you ask that? Is there any problem?"

"I feel something is wrong, and I think you need to know."

"What's wrong?"

"The calculated project volume, project cost, and adverse climate factors during construction are too different from the actual project."

"How did you see it?"

"I had the one-in-fifty-thousandth map and took measurements."

"There is definitely a discrepancy between the map and the actual situation."

“You don’t see this problem with other plans.”

"That's okay, just send it to me for review."

"But now you..."

"Don't worry about it, I can take care of it myself."

He brought the plan back on Saturday morning, and instead of giving it to Hu Yanli, he went to his home and gave it to Ni Shuzhen. Hu Yanli accidentally found out that the amount was too large, and he complained that it was not good to go out.

He said to Ni Shuzhen: "Let's go now. If she goes to the hospital, you can just visit her."

"Is baby coming out?"

"She said it was just these two days."

The two walked to the intersection and met Yang Linxiang head-on.

"What a coincidence. I asked Hu Yanli and she said you may not be here."

"Then why are you here again?"

"I don't know why, but I think it's better to come here."

Ni Shuzhen asked him to stay: "You go do things, I will go alone."

"That's fine, call me if the situation arises."

"I know."

After Ni Shuzhen walked away, Yang Linxiang told Xing Yi how he went to see Aunt Gu.

"I also bought some gifts and took them with me, as if I really wanted to ask her for help. I said that I was eating at Liuqing Hotel and saw someone digging a well in the back. I remembered that our hometown also wanted to dig a well, so I asked The proprietress of Liu Qing Hotel, the proprietress said it was the construction team introduced by Aunt Gu, so I came to see you.

"As you said, she is an enthusiastic person. She agreed immediately and took me to see the little contractor. We agreed in person, and she went to my hometown with me the next day, checked it out, and said there was no problem. She would come back to get it done. Give me the budget. I just waited for a day and it was delivered today. The cost of [-] yuan was really what you said."

Hand the cost list to Xing Yi.

Xing Yi looked at it.Yang Linxiang continued: "The little contractor is very proactive. Liu Qing Hotel can be completed within a week, so he will arrange for people to go there immediately."

"What do you say?"

"I said, come back and think about it."

"It's okay to say it this way. If he asks you again in a few days, he will say that there is not enough money and he will not do it for the time being."

"Would he say it's only fifteen thousand?"

"No, don't worry."

Xing Yi took the cost list and decided to go to Liu Qing Hotel immediately.

Yang Linxiang no longer needs to show up.

The landlady was very surprised to see him, and hurriedly asked him to sit down and make a cup of hot tea.

His gaze went directly to the backyard, where the construction crew was not present.

The landlady said, "I came here yesterday, but I haven't seen her until today."

Xing Yi asked: "Why?"

"They went to the countryside to look at a well and helped them get a budget. The price was more than twice ours. When they came back, they told me about it without any hesitation. They just wanted to let me know that they were suffering a huge loss from my well. . I couldn’t figure it out and asked him why he was doing this. He replied that everyone has his own way of doing things.

"I wonder if they owe Aunt Gu a favor. It doesn't make sense to come to my place to pay it back."

Xing Yi said: "Have you asked Aunt Gu?"

"Not yet. Uncle Xiang said that this is unreasonable. I am worried, what will happen if the price we are asked for is too low and the project cannot be completed?"

Xing Yi said: "It doesn't matter. There is really a problem. When the time comes, I will take out the cost list and talk to him about it."

"What's the cost list? There isn't one. It was said verbally. They came and said it in front of Uncle Xiang."

Xing Yi frowned: "Oral agreements are unreliable. No matter how big or small a project is, there must be a written agreement. This is to prevent either party from breaking the contract."

"Then can I ask them to write one now?"

Xing Yi said: "It must be difficult for them to write now. Let me write one for you. You can just go to them and sign it."

The landlady said, "That's really embarrassing for you to have to worry about."

I immediately took a pen and paper and wrote the agreement in less than 10 minutes.

The proprietress wanted to stay with Xing Yi for dinner. Xing Yi said it was still early for dinner and I wanted to buy something on the street.

Saying goodbye to Boss Liu, he walked out and turned around the corner and saw Lang Zijian.

Lang Zijian saw him from afar, raised his hand, jogged over and said, "I went to Shangyan Village yesterday and thought you were there, but I didn't see you. I came into the city at noon today and planned to go to Guangming Hotel in a few minutes." , you told me that time that I should go there if I wanted to find you. Hey, I didn’t expect to meet you here."

Xing Yi asked hurriedly: "When you went to Shangyan, did you see the underground reservoir construction started?"

"As soon as we moved, there were more than a dozen people at the entrance of the cave. It was quite a scene. The help you gave Shangyan was as big as the sky. Shangyan Village really met a noble person."

"The main reason is that the mountain was born in a strange way. The belly of the mountain is empty, and the bottom is shaped like the bottom of a pot. The water is flowing all year round, so it is said that one side of the water can support one side of the people. This is the truth."

Lang Zijian got excited, took his hand and said, "I'm here today and I'm going to ask you for help. You can't just help the upper weir and ignore the lower weir."

Xing Yi said: "Just tell me, as long as I can do it, I will do it."

While walking around, I told him about the things I wanted to ask him for help.

After that meeting in the village, Lang Zijian contacted several key people when he returned to the village and told how he met Teacher Xing Yi. He introduced that he was a multi-faceted talent who knew everything. He helped Shangyan build an irrigation station and build sand and gravel. In the future, Shangyan Village will get rich.

Several people were encouraged, and they all said that we in Xiayan Village should first build a sand and gravel quarry, which was originally the biggest specialty of Xiayan Village.

Everyone agreed again, saying Lang Zijian, don’t you recognize Teacher Xing?Since he is a generalist and knows everything, it is better to go to him and ask him for help. He must be familiar with all aspects of the city.

Xing Yi nodded: "Yes, it is most suitable for you to set up a sand and gravel pit in Xiayan Village, but there is one thing, what do you think about it, that is, the sand mountain is mined, and it is all white. What have you thought about how to deal with it?"

"What you think coincides with what we think. We have planned it. We will plant trees while mining. We must replant trees in the empty areas after mining. We must not leave a desolate environment with white flowers to future generations. .”

"As long as you have this awareness, I promise to help you with this matter. Fortunately, there is someone in the Mine Management Office who can use it."

"Then I'm very grateful. It's just that the village is very poor at the moment and can't afford a lot of money, so I would like to ask you to help me in various ways to reduce expenses as much as possible."

"Don't mention the money in advance. I'm going to meet this guy and see how many resources he has that can be developed."

Xing Yi invited Lang Zijian: "Let's go shopping again and then have a meal together."

"I won't eat. I came here to drive the tractor. I promised to drive back. They are waiting at the south gate."

Lang Zijian left in a hurry.

After lunch, we took a short rest, checked that the time was almost up, and called the Mine Management Office first.

"Ah, who is it?" A rude voice sounded from the phone.

"Your Majesty, you have forgotten things. How long have you not seen each other?" Xing Yi smiled playfully.

"Uh~ Oh, it's you. Even if I forget someone else, I will never forget you. You have left a deep impression on me. I have wanted to talk to you for a long time. Where are you now? Come here quickly, I’m in the office.”
