i'm not a bad man

Chapter 306 New Variable
The next day, I slept until eight o'clock and got up. When I was getting ready to go out at nine o'clock, Qiao Jiao woke up unexpectedly. She stood on the balcony and said to me: "I'm going to pick up Lu Xi from the airport at noon. Please give me the car keys." Leave it to me.”

I finally knew the approximate time when Lu Xi came to the small town, but Qiao Jiao went to pick up Lu Xi, which somewhat surprised me, so I asked: "Lu Xi came to the small town to shoot a promotional video, why didn't Guan Yubo and the others go to the airport? catch?"

"I took the initiative to go...can she still refuse?"

"You are really hot and cold!"

I said this, and in my mind I remembered several scenes that happened when I went to the airport to pick up Lu Xi. It was in these scenes that I fell into despair, and even hoped that it would never come to an end. Highway, because on this road, we really look like a couple, especially her. Every move she makes makes me feel that I am accompanied by someone. This kind of companionship is very warm, like winter. The warm sun drove away the gloom in my heart and made me recall it to this day...

"Han Chao, did you hear me?"

I finally came to my senses and asked, "What did you say?"

"I asked you to give me the car keys quickly. Why are you standing there in a daze?"

I finally took the car keys out of my pocket and threw them to her. At the same time, I said to her: "You go to Luoyang to pick up Lu Xi. Do you still have time to make a cake for me?"

"There's enough time. I'll go to the hotel now, and then I'll go to the airport when it's ready."

"Okay...then you're done. Leave your things at the front desk of the hotel. I'll pick them up after the meeting."

Qiao Jiao responded, leaned over the guardrail again, and asked me with a faint smile: "Apart from Lu Xi, I have never seen you take so much care of anyone... Tell me honestly, are you messing around with women again?" Already?"

"What you said means that I don't care about you?"

"Haha, you are so thoughtful! ... I usually ask you to go shopping with me, but you are not willing to go shopping with me. Either there is a drinking party or you are not feeling well."

I just smiled and didn't bother to explain anything to Qiao Jiao. I felt that I had a clear conscience about whether I was caring enough for her. Otherwise, why would I put so much effort into doing this to her? Send the cake to Qingdao for her father to eat?

Is it really to please her father?

Her father and I don't have much of a relationship, and we even had some unpleasant experiences before. The purpose of doing this is just for Qiao Jiao. I hope to build a bridge between her and her father in this way, so that they can resolve the issue as soon as possible. For Qiao Jiao, this is real happiness.

"Speak, you bastard, are you out here messing around with women?"

I snorted and replied: "No, there is a ready-made beauty in front of me. I don't have any distractions. I don't have to travel far and wide to find her... It's just a male friend with whom I have a good relationship."

"Do you have no distracting thoughts?... If a stunning beauty like me were placed in Qingdao and stood on the May [-]th Square, everyone would be enchanted in an instant, except for the blind."

"Are you laughing at me for being blind?... I'm not blind, I'm just a little arrogant." "Yes, I'm arrogant, and I have something in my heart..."

After saying that, Qiao Jiao went back to her room as if she was too lazy to talk nonsense with me. I smiled helplessly. It was all in vain. I poured her tea and water last night. If I were blind, , then she has no conscience.

We are evenly matched, so no one can criticize the other.

……

The car was given to Qiao Jiao, so I had to take a taxi to the scenic spot; this was a routine meeting. Every Monday morning, I would meet with Chang Tianming and Heizu, and then summarize the work of the week. We will also communicate about the work arrangements for next week.

At this time, the scenic spot was still in the initial stage of renovation, so we did not have a decent conference room, so we held the meeting in the lobby of the hotel before the scenic spot that was about to close down.

On the contrary, I prefer this kind of atmosphere, because it is not restricted and there is room for free expression at all times.

The hotel waiter poured us each a cup of hot tea. Chang Tianming also handed Heizu and me a cigarette as usual, and then said with a smile: "You two young men, your abilities are really nothing to say... We don't have any investment department." , more than 20 B&B projects have been confirmed... But ability comes from ability, and our hardware facilities still have to keep up. I will also talk to you about my plan: I plan to dedicate a piece of land after the year. While building an office building and improving the office environment, we also let investors see our sincerity in doing this... In my opinion, the best sincerity is to standardize operations. We still have to do what we should do. of."

Black Foot and I nodded in agreement at the same time. Although we are both relatively free and casual people, since we have regarded this as a must-do career, sooner or later we have to go to the path of standardized management. On the road, since it is a standardized operation, there must be a decent office space.

After the construction of the office building was finalized, Heizu and I separately reported to Chang Tianming the progress of various tasks last week. This was originally just my business, but Heizu is really a good friend and knows that I am running the project. He doesn’t have much experience in the above, so he has been by my side to help me deal with things that I am not yet capable of solving. Over the past month or so, I have learned a lot from following him, and I can really say that I have benefited a lot.

……

After a short silence, Chang Tianming took a heavy drag on his cigarette, and his expression suddenly became serious. Black Foot and I looked at each other subconsciously, thinking that we had done something wrong; but Chang Tianming sighed again, and then said: He said to us with a posture of being under great pressure: "There is one thing that I need to talk to you about... You all know about the road expansion project that Guan Yubo and I were arguing about before..."

Because of concern, I asked before Chang Tianming finished speaking: "Is there any result?"

Chang Tianming shook his head and replied: "Not only is there no result, I'm afraid it will have to be delayed for a while, because now there are new variables... What I want to tell you is this variable... Last night, the county leaders called me I got a call and said that there is a health care town project coming to our county... The planned investment is 38 billion. Do you know what level 38 billion belongs to among similar projects?"

After all, Heizu is well-informed. He replied: "I came into contact with Sunac's medical care project in 2016. At that time, they also invested in a health care town in a certain county. It was said to be 26 billion. The investment has become one of the top medical and nursing projects in China."

Chang Tianming nodded and replied: "Well, if this road expansion project is the largest public investment in the small town in recent years, then this health care town is the largest external investment that the small town has ever received... County leaders Tell me that the investors of Kangyang Town have recently conducted a preliminary market survey in the town and have currently selected two places as candidates for their construction sites. One is the 5A-level scenic spot in Guan Yubo, and the other is Our Danangou Scenic Area... As far as health care is concerned, our Danangou Scenic Area is definitely more suitable, but when it comes to transportation, we really have no advantage at all. I learned that the small town has such a large-scale road expansion After the project, the investors of the health care project also expressed their wishes to the county leaders. If Guan Yubo and we can win this road expansion project, we will cooperate with him in the future, because the traffic location is a factor that they value very much... ...This is a 38 billion project. Even if I risk my life, I will win this project...Guan Yubo must be thinking the same way."

After listening to Chang Tianming's narration, Heizu and I looked at each other subconsciously again, and couldn't help but become serious in our hearts. After adding this extra bargaining chip, Guan Yubo and Chang Tianming might really fight to the death!
