Folk black technology boss

Chapter 132 The prices of building materials are soaring

After three days, it was time for the funeral.

According to the husband's arrangement, the time for grandma's funeral is Yinshi, also known as the fifth watch day.

In modern time, it would be between three and four in the morning.

Thanks to the development of science and technology, in the dark night, bright flashlights illuminate the long and rugged mountain roads leading to the mountains.

If it were in the past, my mother said that they would always use torches.

Li Zhou didn't know how the elders in the past used torches to prevent the mountains from burning, but today's flashlights obviously don't have to worry about accidentally burning the mountains.

In the yard, Li Zhou and his relatives knelt on the ground, watching the Eight Immortals attach the dragon skeleton to the coffin and then fix it with thick hemp ropes.

After fixing the beam on the keel, eight strong men put the beam on their shoulders.

"Come on! I'll shout one, two, three, let's all work together!"

"One, two, three! Get up!"

"Walk!"

Eight strong men shouted "Let's go"! After carrying the coffin, he walked quickly forward with small steps.

Then two people immediately carried the two long benches used to hold the coffin on their shoulders and followed closely next to the Eight Immortals.

Even though the Eight Immortals were walking very fast, in fact, it was because they were so heavy that people could not breathe.

There were always people carrying benches and following the Eight Immortals one after another. That was because the coffin could not fall to the ground until they reached the tomb.

In this way, the two long benches come in handy!

As long as the Eight Immortals give instructions, they will immediately put down the long bench, place the coffin on it, and rest on the spot.

"Put the bench down!"

All the way to the foot of the mountain, the Eight Immortals shouted to them to put down the bench.

The word "Put the bench down" is not only spoken to the people carrying the bench, but also to the filial sons and grandsons who follow the coffin.

Yes, Li Zhou and his relatives knelt down on the spot after hearing "putting the bench". Firstly, this was filial piety to the elders, and secondly, it was also respect for the Eight Immortals who held the coffin.

No matter what your status is, as long as you are a descendant, this is the rule.

After a short rest, the old men were called over one by one.

Afterwards, one after another stood on the hillside, holding hands.

"One, two, three! Work harder!"

"The left side is hanging in the air. The people above are pulling hard!"

"one two three!"

"one two three!"

Under Li Zhou's shocked eyes, the coffin was pulled up forcefully.

After sending grandma to her final destination, Li Zhou and most of them left first.

Li Zhou's parents stayed behind, and they still need to block the grave later.

Because he needed to keep vigil at night, Li Zhou had not had a good sleep for three consecutive days.

My face, which was originally healthy, now looks a bit white.

Without touching it, Li Zhou knew that his eyes were swollen.

I feel like my eyes are almost swollen.

As soon as he got in the car, Li Zhou asked Zhou Song to take him home quickly.

"Zhou Song, take me back."

Zhou Song didn't speak and nodded silently.

As soon as he arrived home, Li Zhou saw a pair of big, bright eyes rushing out of the darkness.

Li Zhou glanced at it, pushed Dahei away as he rushed towards him, and ran straight upstairs.

Drowsiness swept over him, and Li Zhou climbed into bed without even taking a shower.

"Weixi, there is nothing important today, so don't wake me up."

"Okay..."

Before Wei Xi could reply, bursts of snoring came from the bed.

Li Zhou, who was so tired that he snored even in bed, had already fallen asleep.

Not long after Li Zhou fell asleep, dawn gradually broke, and the earth was hazy, like a silver-gray veil.

At this time, Wan Lai was terrified of the silence, and suddenly a bird chirped, breaking the silence.

After a while, a piece of fish belly white floated in the eastern sky, and the earth gradually became brighter.

Sensing the change in brightness, Weixi controlled the electrical appliances and slowly closed the curtains, returning darkness to the room.

Early in the morning, Xiong Kexuan sent Occasionally Nuonuo to the kindergarten, waved goodbye to his daughter with a smile, and then drove to the company to work.

Xiong Kexuan controls his time just right every day. Every time he arrives at the company, it is almost 9:25-9:30.

"Mr. Xiong, good morning."

Facing the smile at the front desk, Xiong Kexuan also smiled and said "Good morning."

As soon as she arrived at the office and before she put down her bag, Faye Wong took a folder, opened it, placed it on Xiong Kexuan's desk, and said with a solemn face:

"Sister Xuan, this is the latest material price list released today. All construction-related materials have increased in price again. Based on the latest data, we have made preliminary calculations. If the airport is completed according to the normal construction period, it will lead to The cost is expected to increase by one billion compared to original expectations!”

"And because of the continuous increase in construction materials, the project has been affected. This morning, Party B's project manager once again applied for a progress payment, and sent our company a project contact sheet regarding the need to supplement the contract due to the increase in material prices. , Sister Xuan, do you think we need to pay them progress payment first?

According to the proportion, the progress payment is now paid in excess of proportion. "

After putting down his bag and sitting down, Xiong Kexuan frowned. What happened recently? How come the prices of all materials in the entire construction industry have increased.

Even the prices of the most basic yellow sand and cement have increased by nearly 50%!

Xiong Kexuan took a look at the latest data and raised his head to meet Faye Wong's eyes.

"I have paid them the progress payment for this project first. The progress of the construction cannot be affected for these reasons! In addition, regarding the supplementary contract, please have someone reply to Party B. According to the current market situation, our Future Technology will sign an supplementary contract with them. , because the amount involved is relatively large, I want to report the situation to the chairman first."

Faye Wong nodded, "Okay, Sister Xuan, I'll have someone reply right away."

After Faye Wong left, Xiong Kexuan looked at the data sheet in his hand and couldn't understand what was going on in the construction industry recently.

Recently, the price of materials has been changing from day to day.

In the past, when you found a supplier, there was no reason to directly pay the full amount before shipping the goods, but now?

Sorry, I haven't paid the full price, so don't even think about getting the goods.

For a time, many engineering companies were in trouble.

In fact, it's not just engineering firms that are in trouble.

None of the suppliers or Party A can escape.

If it weren't for the huge liquidity flow supported by future technology, we would have fallen into the same trap as those companies.

Xiong Kexuan rubbed his forehead, sighed, and murmured to himself.

"It doesn't make sense? With such a big fluctuation, it's impossible for those working in engineering not to look for the cause. Which link is the problem? It's really nerve-wracking."

"I don't know if the boss will come today."

Xiong Kexuan gently touched the Bluetooth headset hanging on his ear.

"Weixi, did your boss say you would come to the company today?"

"No, it's expected to come tomorrow."

Thanks to Huise Wuyu for the 100 starting coin reward.
