Chapter 245
When he shouted, Liang Qiurun, who was about to leave, stopped immediately. He stood at the entrance of the alley outside the family compound, and the wind blew up his shirt.
It's only late February in Shenzhen, and it's still a bit chilly.
Hear shouting.
"Section Chief Li?"
Liang Qiurun stopped and looked over, a little surprised. He obviously didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that he would meet Section Chief Li on his way out.
"It's me."
Section Chief Li hurriedly asked Director Chen to stop the car. He pushed open the door and got out, then walked towards Liang Qiurun and saw that Liang Qiurun and Jiang Meishu were there.
Section Chief Li breathed a sigh of relief. "Director Liang, Comrade Jiang, you're all here! It's perfect timing." He immediately waved to Director Chen, who had parked his car. "Old Chen, Old Chen, didn't I say I wanted to introduce you to someone?"
"That's Director Liang and his lover."
"Come on, come on, come here quickly."
Liang Qiurun was still a little confused, and of course, Jiang Meishu was also confused. But fortunately, Liang Qiurun had always had excellent psychological qualities.
Even when faced with an emergency, he remained calm. "Chief Li, who is this?"
Section Chief Li then remembered that he had forgotten to introduce himself. He immediately said, "This is my old classmate, Director Chen from the Planning Bureau. He wants to discuss something with you."
When Liang Qiurun heard that the other party was the director of the Planning Bureau, his heart twitched, and he exchanged glances with Jiang Meishu almost reflexively.
Both of them saw joy in each other's eyes.
"It's not convenient here. Shall we go to the teahouse in front to talk?"
Liang Qiurun turned a passive attitude into an active one and directly decided on a location. People in Pengcheng love drinking tea, and this is a long history, so the teahouses here are really a good place to talk.
Director Chen naturally agreed.
"Okay, shall we go to the teahouse now?"
"But, have you eaten yet?"
"If you haven't eaten yet, let's go to the state-owned restaurant, eat and talk about things."
Liang Qiurun knew that the other party was taking care of them, because he had learned from Meng Juan that the other party had already eaten.
He said, "I have eaten."
"Let's go to the teahouse."
"I know there's new tea coming over there, and it tastes really good."
I consciously brought the topic to drinking tea.
This also made Director Chen and Section Chief Li relax a lot. As an outsider, Jiang Meishu even felt that Liang Qiurun had a better grasp of the initiative.
They are walking in front.
Jiang Meishu and Qiao Jiahui fell behind. Jiang Meishu was determined to go, but Qiao Jiahui was a little hesitant. "Sister-in-law, do you think I should go?"
He wanted to go in his heart, but at this time he was afraid that he was an outsider and it would be inconvenient for them to talk if he went.
Jiang Meishu didn't treat him as an outsider, so she asked directly, "Do you want to go?"
"I do, but—"
"Then go. No buts, and it won't cause any trouble."
Jiang Meishu said in a gentle voice, "Jiahui, you should know that your brother Qiurun has always wanted to train you."
Liang Qiurun cannot cooperate with others all his life, nor can he work for others all his life. He is not the kind of person who would be inferior to others.
It's a matter of personality.
As long as he has capital, he will definitely stand out on his own in the future. Without Liang Qiurun, if Qiao Jiahui has not yet established himself, he will be eaten alive sooner or later even though he has such a huge asset in his hands.
When Qiao Jiahui heard Jiang Meishu's words, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, "Sister-in-law, I understand."
Now he is no longer tired of studying.
In the final analysis, there is no other way, especially the existence of Li Chengdong has brought crisis to Qiao Jiahui.
If he doesn't work hard and study hard, when Brother Qiurun and his sister-in-law go to support others, he will become an orphan.
So he followed behind obediently.
After arriving at the teahouse, Liang Qiurun seemed to be very familiar with the place. He said something to the waiter, and he led them to the largest private room.
This surprised Section Chief Li. "It seems Director Liang has been in Pengcheng for a short time and is already familiar with our Pengcheng customs."
Liang Qiurun smiled and said, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do."
He first pulled out the chairs and let Section Chief Li and Director Chen sit down, then he pulled Jiang Meishu to sit next to him. As for Qiao Jiahui, he ignored him.
If you are such a grown-up and can't even sit in this small seat, you are a fool.
After everyone was seated and had ordered their tea, Liang Qiurun instructed the waiter, "Comrade, pour me a glass of coconut water."
It's a bit strange to order coconut water in a teahouse.
Facing everyone's gaze, Liang Qiurun acted calmly, "My wife gets insomnia easily after drinking tea, so I just give her a glass of coconut water."
"If not," he instructed with a smile, "please go to the door and buy me a fresh coconut to pour in."
The other party was about to say that they didn't have this rule, but the old waiter immediately pulled the new waiter and said to Liang Qiurun, "Okay, Director Liang, please wait a moment."
Obviously this old waiter was familiar with Liang Qiurun's habits.
Wait until the other party goes out.
Section Chief Li jokingly said, "Director Liang is really good to his lover."
He and Meng Juan have a good relationship, but they rarely come out to discuss business, and he can even give his wife special treatment in public.
Seeing Jiang Meishu was a little shy, Liang Qiurun said, "My wife is thin-skinned and can't stand being teased."
Then, he naturally turned the topic to business. "I wonder what Chief Li and Director Chen want to talk to me about?"
Section Chief Li finally gave up and said, "I heard Comrade Jiang say at the social gathering the other day, Director Liang, you need to dispose of a batch of soil debris?"
Liang Qiurun, "Yes."
As soon as the other party opened his mouth, he roughly knew what the other party was up to.
"Here's the thing. Director Chen has a mission to build a road by reclaiming land. We need to transport a large amount of earth and debris to Qianhai. I wonder if you are willing to take on this task?"
Liang Qiurun didn't answer whether to take over or not, but asked, "How did you do it specifically?"
"For example, how much does a truckload of soil cost? And roughly how much soil is needed?"
When he asked this question, Section Chief Li was unable to answer. It was Director Chen who answered him. As the person who received the task, he was very clear about these issues.
"We're currently charging three yuan per truckload for a pile of dirt. We need a large, heavy truck, and each truckload carries about one to two tons of dirt."
"As for how much land will be needed, we're not sure yet. The bay area to be added in Qianhai is about 6,000 to 7,000 square meters."
"If you want to fill it in, you may need professional personnel to measure it before you can know."
Liang Qiurun knew that it was not something that could be solved with just a ton or two of soil, so he said, "It would be a huge undertaking to fill it all up. I can't do it alone."
"Regarding the price of a truckload of soil, I hope Director Chen can give us a higher price. After all, it's really not easy for us."
Director Chen was well prepared for this, and their current statement to the public is three pieces of soil per truck.
"If Director Liang can take over all of Qianhai Bay, I can raise the price to 3.2 yuan."
Liang Qiurun was still not satisfied with the price and frowned slightly.
"Three dollars and a half."
Director Chen sighed, "Director Liang, this price is really the limit. I can't offer any more."
The price of three dollars and fifty cents has reached Liang Qiurun's bottom line.
He nodded. "That's three dollars and fifty cents."
"Let us handle the filling of the hole in Qianhai Bay."
“I don’t know when the contract will be signed?”
Director Chen said without hesitation, "Right now."
There were ready-made letter paper and pens at the teahouse, so they didn't need to go back and look for them; they could sign the contract on the spot.
In duplicate.
Liang Qiurun and Director Chen each had a copy, and the contract clearly defined their respective rights and responsibilities.
Finally, there is the pricing, which is also clearly written.
After both parties sign.
Liang Qiurun asked, "Do you still need the stamp from the Planning Bureau?"
It would have been fine if he hadn't said anything. Director Chen then suddenly realized what was happening and slapped his forehead, "It's true that the Planning Bureau stamp is missing. I'll go back to the office to get it stamped now."
"you--"
He wanted to ask Liang Qiurun and the others to wait at the teahouse, but Liang Qiurun refused. "Let's go to the office together, so you don't have to run back and forth."
Liang Qiurun is a thoughtful person, which makes Director Chen like him even more.
"Okay then, let's go together."
Getting the stamp was a very quick process. Director Chen drove the car, followed closely by Liang Qiurun and the others. When they arrived at the Planning Bureau, it was dark inside, and it was obvious that everyone had already gone off work.
Director Chen opened the door with his key, turned on the light, and using the light, he took out a stamp from his office drawer, pressed it with ink, and stamped it on the contract on the spot.
Only when the contract was stamped did Liang Qiurun finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Oh, I forgot to increase the deadline."
Director Chen suddenly said something.
Liang Qiurun, "Reclaiming the sea and building a road won't be quick. It'll take at least six months."
And this is a conservative estimate.
Director Chen frowned, "This is taking too long."
Liang Qiurun said, "For an area of several thousand square meters, we need to fill it up bit by bit, and we also need to ensure that the soil underneath is strong enough to prevent it from sinking."
He was very straightforward, "Director Chen, I promise to complete the project and hand it over to you in one month. Can you rest assured?"
This is certainly not reassuring.
In the end, Director Chen could only give in and say, "Six months, then. I want to see results in six months."
Liang Qiurun nodded.
Seeing that they were talking about this and that but not the real business, Jiang Meishu suddenly became anxious, "What about the bill? Who will pay us for the dirt we brought in?"
When she finished speaking, Liang Qiurun was a little embarrassed, "Jiang Jiang, we have already clearly stated the billing in the contract. The bill will be settled once a month."
When Jiang Meishu heard this, she froze for a moment, a look of embarrassment on her face. "I missed it."
She had been distracted the entire time.
Director Chen said, "Don't worry about the settlement. Our Planning Bureau will discuss it with the Land Bureau. Someone will definitely settle the bill when the time comes. They won't be able to get away with it."
After all, the contract was signed and stamped.
After hearing this, Jiang Meishu finally felt relieved. After leaving the Planning Bureau, Jiang Meishu and Liang Qiurun arrived home.
She then asked Liang Qiurun, "Old Liang, the area in Qianhai that needs to be filled is quite large. How do you plan to do it?"
Although she had given a general idea before, the specific implementation might still be a bit troublesome.
Liang Qiurun, "Just as you said, but I won't act so quickly. I'll first dump Hongtai's debris over there, and then have people spread the news. Hongtai can start construction because the debris has been resolved."
"Those construction companies will naturally contact me later."
He is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
Jiang Meishu was stunned for a moment, "Aren't you going to promote it?"
According to her thinking, it must be publicized. If it is not publicized, no one will know about it. Moreover, if the entire sea area is filled up, who knows how much soil will be needed.
Liang Qiurun, "In the early stage, Hongtai will focus on publicity. If the mid-term effect is not good, I will find someone to promote it."
Jiang Meishu shook her head, "I don't think it's enough."
Liang Qiurun fetched water for her to wash her feet, "Why?"
Jiang Meishu said, "Old Liang, you don't have enough time. You have to know that Director Chen has given us six months to complete the project. It's such a large area. If we delay too long in the early stages, we won't have enough time later."
"If I were you, I would do it in two ways. From the moment Hongtai pulled the debris away, you would start spreading the word. That way, it would be best to get them to follow our convoy."
"At the same time, dump the dirt into Qianhai."
"Among these units, Hongtai and Xiaodongmen are our own construction sites, so naturally, the land here should be kept within the family. However, the other units belong to outsiders, so I think we can focus on Li Chengdong."
"Li Chengdong?"
Liang Qiurun washed her feet and pressed the soles of her feet. Seeing her frown, he slowed down his pressure. "Does it hurt?"
"It hurts a bit. I walked a lot during the day."
Liang Qiurun slowly slowed down his movements, while Jiang Meishu continued, "Among the group of people who bid for land back then, Li Chengdong's plot was the largest. If we can take over his construction site, we can get at least a thousand truckloads of soil."
"One of his units can outperform ten, or even more."
"I don't believe that what happened to Hongtai has not happened to Li Chengdong."
Liang Qiurun pondered the feasibility of Jiang Meishu's words, "Li Chengdong and we don't get along."
"No."
Jiang Meishu shook her head, "He and Qiao Jiahui don't get along."
"Once he knows that the Hongtai and slag issues under Qiao Jiahui's name have been resolved, he will naturally find someone to inquire."
"That's the opportunity we can take advantage of."
It depends on how they operate. If they operate properly, they can make a lot of money from Li Chengdong.
Anyway, if there are too many lice, you don't have to worry about them biting you. Their relationship with Li Chengdong was not good to begin with, so this is not a big deal.
Liang Qiurun, "Let me think about it."
Jiang Meishu didn't disturb him from thinking. She went to pour water for washing feet. Then she realized that every time Liang Qiurun poured water for her, the bottle was full and she couldn't carry it at all.
In the end, it was Liang Qiurun who fell down, and Jiang Meishu lay comfortably on the bed. She was really exhausted that day. She ran to many places, and her legs couldn't bear it.
Liang Qiurun thought for a while, "If we want to trick Li Chengdong into taking the bait, we can't reveal to the public that we took on the Qianhai reclamation project."
"Once he knew about the feud between Li Chengdong and Jiahui, he would rather dump the soil somewhere else than sell it to us for a profit."
Jiang Meishu thought about it and couldn't lie down any longer, so she sat up and asked, "Have you found a suitable candidate?"
Liang Qiurun shook his head, "Not yet."
Jiang Meishu sat up straight and said, "I have a candidate."
"who?"
"I."
As soon as she said this, Liang Qiurun was shocked. "You?"
Jiang Meishu coughed lightly and said, "Yes, it's me. If Li Chengdong wants to win us over, I'll reveal this news to him, and he will definitely agree."
"But the premise is that it's me, not you and Jiahui."
This is the difference between opposite sexes and same sexes.
"Besides that, I also want to discuss business with Li Chengdong. Once their Fugui Home is built, I want to buy eight or ten units."
Liang Qiurun frowned, "Will he believe it?"
Jiang Meishu said, "I don't know, but you can try it. Just follow the method."
"There are two ways. First, we can build a gate at the entrance to Qianhai Bay and allow people to dump soil there for a fee."
"When we in Hongtai dump the dirt, we don't have to hide it. We just go in and dump the dirt and pay. Someone will definitely follow us by then."
"If they come to Qianhai to dump soil, we will naturally not stop them."
Liang Qiurun didn't expect Jiang Meishu to come up with such an idea. He was somewhat impressed and also a little proud. "But how can we set up a gate in such a large area like Qianhai?"
Jiang Meishu sighed, "Lao Liang, although Qianhai is a large area, there are only a few entrances to it. The rest of the area is sea. No one dares to openly dump soil into the sea. If we want to reclaim land, we must build a road for them to pass through."
"And this road will be our gate."
“We just need to have people collect fees at the gates.”
Liang Qiurun was shocked at this moment, "Jiang Jiang."
"How are you so smart?"
Others say he is smart, but at this moment, Liang Qiurun has to admit defeat in front of Jiang Meishu.
Even though he had extensive work experience, he had to admit that he could not think of this method.
Jiang Meishu thought to herself, how can this be considered clever? This is clearly what scenic spots in later generations do most often. The entrance gate is in your own hands, and you have to buy a ticket to enter. This is a fact.
But she couldn't say it, so she could only pretend to be a smart person.
The next morning, Liang Qiurun split his forces into two groups, sending Jiang Meishu and Qiao Jiahui to Qianhai to set up the sluice gate.
Littering is not allowed.
Qiao Jiahui found workers from somewhere and they pulled up barbed wire to enclose most of Qianhai.
Only one large passage was left, large enough for three trucks to pass through at the same time.
A simple toll booth was built on the outskirts of the main channel. Of course, this was proposed by Jiang Meishu, and the toll booth was also designed according to her style.
It is exactly the same place as the toll booths on highways in later generations.
Wait until everything is arranged here.
On the other side, after Liang Qiurun arrived at Hongtai's construction site, the first thing he did was to have people haul away the piled-up debris in trucks.
Hongtai's debris had been piled up for more than a week, so it took more than a hundred trucks to load it.
After the debris here was cleared, Hongtai immediately started construction.
At the same time, the news of Hongtai's construction started spread quietly to various construction sites in Pengcheng.
"Hongtai has started construction? That's impossible. I went to their construction site the day before yesterday and saw piles of debris everywhere. They can't start construction for a while unless they solve the debris problem."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone immediately sent people to check it out, and they really saw that the piled up debris on the Hongtai construction site had disappeared.
"Hongtai found a place to dump the dirt."
"Go and find out."
This problem, which almost stumped most people, has now been solved. How can they not be shocked?
at the same time.
The same is true for the construction site in Jinshadi.
Li Chengdong was furious. "It's been almost three months since we auctioned the land. In three months, you've only dug a foundation for me? You haven't even finished the foundation. If this were Hong Kong, I would fire any construction team like yours!"
The construction team members were also embarrassed by this. "Mr. Li, it's not that we won't work. You know there are new regulations in Pengcheng that prohibit the random dumping of soil debris and industrial waste. There's nothing we can do about it."
"Unless you can help us find a place to dump the soil, we can continue construction. Otherwise, the soil we dig out from the foundation alone will bury half of the gold sand land."
Li Chengdong sneered, "If you can't find it, how can I find it?"
Just as he finished speaking, a person walked in quickly and whispered something in his ear. Li Chengdong's pupils shrank suddenly, "Are you serious?"
"Has the Hongtai construction site started? How are they dealing with the debris?"
"Someone watched as a truck came and took the debris away."
“Where was it shipped to?”
Li Chengdong asked.
The other party shook his head and said, "We only saw it out of Luohu District. We can't follow too closely."
When Li Chengdong heard this, he sneered, "Idiot, go follow me again."
"After tracking where they dumped the dirt, we memorized the location and went there to dump it as well."
The subordinate immediately nodded in agreement. However, two or three hours later, he returned to report, "Mr. Li, someone tracked them down and said they dumped the debris into a place called Qianhai. There's a gate there, and someone's collecting fees at the gate."
As soon as these words fell, Li Chengdong was stunned, "Charge for dumping dirt?"
"How much is a truckload of dirt?"
"It costs two dollars to unload a car."
Even though Li Chengdong was rich, he couldn't help but curse at this moment, "I'm charging money for dumping dirt? And two dollars a cart, why doesn't he just rob it?"
He conservatively estimated that several thousand truckloads of soil would have to be dumped here.
If we dump all of it into Qianhai, wouldn't we have to pay 10,000 or 20,000 just for the soil?
Are there such robbers in this world?
This is Zhou Baopi, he would peel off a layer of wall paint every time he walked past.
The subordinates didn't speak.
Although he also thought it was quite expensive, they had no choice.
Li Chengdong calmed down a bit after seeing his expression. "With such a high cost for dumping soil, is there anyone dumping it?"
The subordinate immediately said, "Yes, quite a few."
"Many small construction sites can be solved with just a few dozen truckloads of soil. For a little over a hundred yuan, you can get rid of the soil debris and start construction. Many people even say it's a good deal behind the scenes."
Li Chengdong, "..."
These people are absolutely idiots.
Two dollars a truckload of soil is still cheap?
Outside.
After Jiang Meishu arrived at the place, she asked Qiao Jiahui to wait in the car, "Don't come. If you come, what if Li Chengdong, the big fat sheep, gets excited when he sees you and doesn't let me fleece him?"
"Hide in the car, don't get out."
Qiao Jiahui felt aggrieved, but then he thought that Jiang Meishu had tricked Li Chengdong in the past, and he no longer felt aggrieved, but rather felt a little happy.
After all, the owners of the auctioned land are from Hong Kong, so he doesn’t want a penny for the land in Xiaodongmen.
There is also my sister-in-law who helps take care of things and is looking after Li Chengdong.
How miserable.
After Jiang Meishu arrived, he sent someone to pass on a message. After a while, Li Chengdong came out to meet him. Anyway, you couldn't tell from his face that there had been a falling out between the two sides.
On the contrary, Li Chengdong was in high spirits, smiling broadly. "Ms. Jiang, I'm honored to be here. What advice do you have for me?"
Jiang Meishu was somewhat amazed at Li Chengdong's thick skin.
However, she was also quite thick-skinned, so she went straight to the point, "The land at Xiaodongmen, which is owned by Qiao Jiahui, will be cleared within three days, and then construction at Xiaodongmen will begin first."
She emphasized the words "start work first".
Li Chengdong's expression changed immediately. "Where should he dump the debris from his construction site?"
Jiang Meishu hit a straight ball, "Qianhai."
This matter cannot be concealed. Li Chengdong will find out as long as he investigates it.
Li Chengdong didn't say anything.
"Mr. Li, I am no different from being your enemy. I even thought about buying ten houses after the Fugui Garden is completed."
This is sincerity.
Sure enough, as soon as Jiang Meishu finished speaking, Li Chengdong's expression immediately eased a little.
"Then you came to me?"
Jiang Meishu smiled, "Dumping soil? 20% off, three yuan per truck."
"Is Mr. Li down?"
