"Well, where else can that damn old man go? Now that the weather is warm, the old man is either going to the antique market or fishing by the canal. He is even busier than before he got sick."
After Yang Jing entered the house, he did not see his uncle, and his uncle's car was not parked outside, so Yang Jing asked, "Grandma, was it my uncle who took my grandpa there?"
"Well, your uncle is always worried about your grandpa, so he takes your grandpa out every time. Oh, by the way, where is that girl Gege? Why didn't she come?"
"Grandma, Gege is still attending classes in Yanjing. I just came back from the United States, so I didn't bring Gege back with me. But May Day is coming soon, so I will bring her to see you and my grandfather on May Day."
"Well, Gege is a good child. You should spend more time with her, and then hurry up and get married, and give grandma a great-grandson."
Yang Jing was simply unable to respond. Ginger is indeed more experienced, and grandma's words are equivalent to mom's one hour of talking.
It was still early, so Yang Jing and his father went to the construction site of the Grand Canal Leisure Park for a walk.
After nearly a year of construction, the Grand Canal Leisure Park has taken shape. All the ground has been leveled, and several major buildings are under construction, but will soon be capped. The ground of the playground has also been hardened, and some equipment has been brought in and is waiting to be installed.
Yang Jing met Zhang Haikui on the construction site. Under his leadership, he had a clearer understanding of the construction progress of the site.
"We applied to the central government for two openings in the Grand Canal, and the central government has approved it. After the water system of the park is completed in the second half of the year, we will dig up the west embankment of the canal to allow the water from the Grand Canal to enter the water area of the park, and then flow back into the canal after a circle inside."
"Can we start excavation in the second half of the year? That's pretty fast."
"Haha, how can it not be fast? This project is the most enjoyable one I have ever done. It has sufficient funds, no obstacles of any kind, and the municipal party committee and government are fully supportive. With such good conditions, if the progress of this park is not fast, I, the project manager, should take the initiative to resign."
As Zhang Haikui spoke, he pointed to two areas of the canal's western embankment and said, "The canal embankment is going to be excavated in the south and north. Of course, after the excavation, two bridges will be built in those two places to ensure that the canal embankment can still be used by vehicles. However, these two bridges are not large in scale and will be repaired soon."
The water system of the Grand Canal Leisure Park is a very important part of the entire leisure park. Since the park is next to the canal, it would be a great pity if the water from the canal was not introduced into the park.
Once the water from the Grand Canal is introduced into the park, the entire park can rely on the canal water to form a complete water circulation system. At that time, the artificial rivers and lakes in the park can be connected to the Grand Canal, forming a water circulation model similar to Guilin's one river and four lakes.
It's just that Guilin's one river and four lakes model is natural, while the park is artificial and much smaller in scale. However, in such a northern city, if such a water circulation system can really be formed, it is extremely rare.
"Uncle Haikui, you can go ahead and do it with confidence. You don't have to worry about the funding. As long as the quality of the park's construction is guaranteed, everything will be fine."
"Haha, Xiao Jing, you don't need to say more about this. I will certainly make the park a classic project. I also hope that the park will win a Lu Ban Award."
Father Yang said, "Xiao Jing, you don't have to worry about Manager Zhang. Manager Zhang is really dedicated and responsible."
After wandering around the construction site for more than an hour, Yang Jing said apologetically before parting: "Uncle Haikui, I came back a little suddenly this time, and I have to go back to Yanjing tomorrow. There are still a lot of things waiting for me to deal with there, so I can't treat you to dinner this time. How about this, on May Day or when I have summer vacation, call my uncle and I will treat you to a good meal."
"Haha, that's great, I'm really looking forward to having a drink with you then."
