The Pentium Era - South to North

Zhang Chen walked into the lobby. When a worker saw Mr. Zhang coming, he turned on the lights in the lobby. Zhang Chen saw the trees made of paddles and the blue sky on the top. They were all pictures in his imagination. This It feels so good, seeing the picture you imagined become real, will give people a familiar experience.

The floor in the lobby was not paved yet. Zhang Chen looked at the ground covered with pipelines, then looked up at the top of his head. Suddenly he had a new idea. He quickly called the squad leader and Xiao Lin over.

Zhang Chen told them that I wanted to modify the ground plan.

"How to change it?" the monitor asked him.

"In this way, can we drill some small holes in the marble and install small light bulbs like baby's breath? Of course, it doesn't have to be very dense, as long as one is eighty to one meter and evenly distributed." Zhang Chen said .

"I understand, Mr. Zhang, do you think that after the big lights in the lobby are turned off at night, the ground will look like a starry sky?" asked the monitor.

"Yes, I understand it well." Zhang Chen patted his shoulder and praised.

Xiao Lin muttered something to the side, and Zhang Chen glared at him: "Speak slowly, please make it clear what you want to say."

Xiao Lin turned to the oar tree and said: "Turn off the headlights at night and there is no one around. Why do we need this? It's a waste of electricity."

"You, a peasant, don't even use these decorative lights in the lobby, replace them with one-hundred-watt incandescent lamps to save electricity," Zhang Chen scolded.

The squad leader was laughing beside him, and Zhang Chen asked him if it was difficult?

"I don't have one here. Why don't you just drill a few holes and seal them with transparent silicone? It's just more work."

"It doesn't matter." Zhang Chen said to the squad leader, then turned to Xiao Lin: "Where are you here?"

"The difficulty is not that difficult." Xiao Lin muttered, "Just take another route."

"Okay, then it's settled. I'll tell Party A tomorrow."

Zhang Chen walked to the door, looked back at the lobby, and smiled a little proudly. He thought that if that were the case, the lobby would be unique even late at night. Guests who arrived or returned to the store late at night would walk to the door and see The dots of stars on the ground, like the starry sky, will definitely leave a deep impression on them.

Zhang Chen walked to the parking lot and looked at his watch. Xiao Wu and the others should be finishing up soon. Zhang Chen didn't want to go back to the office. He was afraid that Azheng would treat them to midnight snacks or something, which was too long-winded.

Zhang Chen thought that from now on, he would have to avoid Ah Zheng's well-intentioned harassment every damn day. It would also be a headache, but he had no choice. Who told you to forget your car outside the gate that day? This probably means that every gain must come with a loss. If you get the car you lost, you deserve to lose your purity.

Zhang Chen walked to his motorcycle, got on it, and decided to go to Longkun South Road to have a look. He hadn't been there for two days and didn't know what was going on there.

Zhang Chen turned under the South Bridge and was surprised. He saw that it was dark here and no one was working on the construction site. It shouldn't be. Zhang Chen looked at his watch. It was less than ten o'clock. In the past, every day here, We will work until about eleven o'clock. What happened today?

Zhang Chen parked his car outside the roadblock, climbed over the roadblock, walked over a section of the road that had been poured, and continued walking along the roadbed until he reached the end of the construction site, which was empty.

Zhang Chen stood in the dark and looked around. He always felt that something was missing here. After a while, he remembered that even the mixer and those hand-operated trucks were missing from the construction site. How could it be possible? Even if the workers leave work early, the mixers and dump trucks will not be taken away.

Zhang Chen walked to a simple work shed built on the roadbed. It was used to stack cement. People who watched the construction site at night also lived here. The entire work shed was also dark. Zhang Chen pushed the moso bamboo pieces with his hands. The door creaked open.

Zhang Chen took out a lighter from his pocket and lit it. When he saw that it was empty inside, Zhang Chen immediately had a bad premonition. He thought that work here should have been suspended.

Zhang Chen walked out of the work shed and looked at the darkness around him. A chill came from the bottom of his heart. Zhang Chen understood that it was not easy to start a large-scale project like this, nor was it easy to stop the work. Once the work was stopped, something big would definitely happen. .

Zhang Chen's first thought was to call Liu immediately and tell him the news.

On the way back, Zhang Chen gave up the idea of ​​dunking Liu Lipole. He thought, what's the use of dunking him? It's such a late night, he will definitely not sleep well today, why bother to make everyone Can't sleep.

let's talk tomorrow.

What Zhang Chen didn't know was that Liu Ligan had actually been here before, but he didn't go as far as Zhang Chen to confirm that work on the construction site had stopped. He stood on the other side of the roadblock and looked at the dark construction site. He thought the workers had left work early today. When he came in the morning, there were still many people busy on the construction site.

It’s nothing special, every unit has its own arrangement. Liu Ligan told himself.

The next morning, Liu Ligan got up and went to the construction site on Longkun South Road first. It was still quiet here, and Liu Ligan was startled.

The sun in Haicheng during the day is too strong and too scorching. All outdoor construction sites start early in the morning and end late at night. During the four or five hours at noon, everyone rests. When Liu Ligan was under the South Bridge, he encountered noon Those who brought mats to cool off and casually mingled with each other were people from nearby construction sites.

How is this possible? At this time in the past, this place was already in full swing.

Liu Ligan climbed over the roadblock and ran to the work shed. He wanted to find someone to ask, but when he ran to the work shed, there was no one. He also discovered the problem that Zhang Chen discovered last night, and also came up with the same problem as Zhang Chen last night. Same answer.

Without saying a word, Liu Ligan ran back and got on his bike, then turned around and rode towards the Urban Construction Bureau.

Liu Ligan arrived at the downstairs of the Urban Construction Bureau. It was still early and the door was deserted. Liu Ligan was in the lobby on the first floor. He found a chair and sat down. A security guard came over and wanted to ask him what he was doing. Liu Ligan said harshly. After giving him a hard look, the security guard stepped back.

At nine o'clock, when it was time to go to work, people came one after another. Liu Ligan opened his eyes wide and did not see Director Wang. He waited for another ten minutes, but still did not see Director Wang.

Liu Ligan took the elevator upstairs. The door of Director Wang's office was closed. Liu Ligan stood at the door and knocked. There was no response. When he knocked again, a woman from the next door office came out and asked Liu Ligan Who are you looking for?

Liu Ligan said to find Wang Chu.

"The king hasn't come yet, why don't you wait here with me?"

"Oh, no, thank you. I'd better go down and wait. By the way, beauty, do you know why the work on Longkun South Road has been suspended?"

"What is Longkun South Road?"

"Oh, thank you, I'll go down first." Liu Ligan waved to her.

Liu Ligan was downstairs and waited for more than half an hour before he saw Director Wang carrying a bag and coming in from the door. Liu Ligan quickly stood up and went to greet him. Director Wang was a little surprised to see Liu Ligan. , but he immediately smiled and shook hands with Liu Lipole.

Liu Ligan followed Director Wang upstairs and entered the door. Director Wang was going to pour water for Liu Ligan. Liu Ligan said hurriedly: "Thank you, no need, Director Wang, I just came to inquire about something."

"Okay, tell me what's going on."

"I arrived at the construction site on Longkun South Road earlier. When I saw it, why did the work stop?"

"Yes, it stopped there."

"Why?"

"This...this...funding is a reason."

Liu Ligan was surprised. He said: "Aren't the funds for such a major project all special funds? Will arrangements be made in advance?"

"That's true, but there is a shortage of money everywhere now. As you know, the whole of Hainan is in dire need of money. It's not just a shortage in Hainan, it's a shortage all over the country. Our Hainan has a weak foundation. This little money for infrastructure investment turns out to be basically useless. We contribute a small amount and the state contributes a large amount, but now, the state’s contribution has been reduced, and the little money we have is just a drop in the bucket.”

Director Wang looked outside the door, lowered his voice and said to Liu Ligan: "This cannot be reported. Let me tell you the truth, this is on Longkun South Road. The leader originally wanted to turn it into a fishing project, so we started first. , and then reached out to ask for money from the central government, haha, how can the central government be so stupid, I can’t see it, now I have no choice, so I have to stop and talk slowly.”

"When is work expected to resume?" Liu Ligan asked.

"I don't know about this. Who can figure out the money thing? Maybe it will happen in a snap, or maybe it will be far away. It depends on the energy of the leaders in the province and city."

Liu Ligan listened and felt a chill in his heart.
