Will it die

Fang Lan supports Zhang Feng’s approach. It’s not that he never gave Zhang Ke a chance. Unfortunately, he didn’t appreciate it at all. On the contrary, he blamed a lot. He threatened his family with a divorce, and eventually forced Zhang Feng to take his younger brother and sister to cleanse. When going out, this has touched the bottom line of people's hearts. For parents, whether it is Zhang Feng or Fang Lan, they will not say anything, but it is different for Zhang Ke.

Zhang Ke’s wife’s house is really not the kind of fuel-efficient lamp. If the family tried their best to rescue Zhang Ke like Zhang Songjie Kong Lingshan did, they would eventually be dragged into the whirlpool by the Wang family. It would be a bottomless pit and the character of that family. It was too bad to be worth helping. Therefore, Fang Lan first supported Zhang Feng's decision and also persuaded his wife Zhang Jing.

Fang Lan also understands that the main reason why Zhang Jing has such or such thoughts is that she knows a little bit of Zhang Feng’s details and thinks that Zhang Feng should be able to overcome this circumstance, but he is more aware of Zhang Feng’s intentions. It's not that I don't want to clear the siege, but I'm waiting for an opportunity, and I need to help at the most suitable time. Otherwise, not only will it not be effective, but it may also attract resentment.

Zhang Jing was just talking in front of her brother. She also knew what kind of person her parents and elder brother's family were like.

Seeing that the eldest sister had accepted her suggestion, Zhang Feng stopped mentioning this topic and asked Fang Lan: "Brother-in-law, is there anything else going on here this time? Did things go well in the quarry?"

Fang Lan nodded and said: "There is something wrong. The quarry is still going well. With the full support of Zhongdan Village and Kongjiaqiao Village, the site is basically ready for use, and there is still some piecemeal work left. Arranged to do it in my spare time, 11 large-scale rockbreakers have also been installed. I tried them one by one a few days ago, and it was quite ideal."

Zhang Feng said with an "um", "Are there any problems with funding?"

Fang Lan smiled bitterly: “For the time being, it’s quite ample, but I’ve calculated it. I’m afraid it will be difficult to support two years. According to the current scale, the funds can support one year. This is still labor costs. The reason is relatively low."

Zhang Feng pondered for a moment. Because of the pharmaceutical factory, he immediately put all the money in his hand into it. Before the new drug was officially approved for the market, the pharmaceutical factory was a gold swallowing beast. It’s not enough to smash inside. Now all the one million dollar bills have been thrown out, and he only has hundreds of thousands of dollars for emergency use. It won’t be very useful when it comes to the quarry. It lasts for a while, so if you want to contract the barren hills of the Dongyu River at this time, funding is a problem. After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Feng said: "Brother-in-law, I plan to let you go out."

Fang Lan said: "Okay, now the ground is frozen solid, and construction cannot be started on the construction site. The daily work of the quarry does not require me to stay there all day. If your sister occasionally goes around, it will solve the problem. , Just to make room."

Zhang Feng said: "Let's build houses here, now all of them are made of red bricks, right?"

Fang Lan nodded and said: "Yes, I used power plant cinder bricks before, but the quality is too different from red clay bricks. The power plant doesn’t do much of this business anymore, so only the red clay bricks are left. Let’s go along the mountain. In this way, there are several brick and tile kilns, and their business is very prosperous. If everyone can make a little more money, it is estimated that they will all be thrown into the brick and tile kiln."

Zhang Feng said: "I want my brother-in-law to go to Beijing to inspect a machine for producing cement bricks. As you know, the most waste produced in our quarries is stone moss, which are usually filled into rivers or used to make roads. You have to pay people to do these tasks. The main raw material of cement bricks is these sand, gravel and foam. Except for cement, it can be said to be zero cost."

Fang Lan was taken aback when he heard the words: "Is there such a machine?"

Zhang Feng smiled and said: "I can let you go and be sure that there is cement. We have a cement factory in our county. It is more than enough for the production of cement bricks. You can check it out. If appropriate, order a few sets and come back in Dongyuhe. The quarries on both sides of the strait are installed. This will not only turn waste into treasure, but also help us withdraw funds without depositing large sums of money in the bank."

Fang Lan was a little excited when he heard this. Zhang Feng’s idea is simply a golden idea for the quarry. It is like picking up money. The cost is nothing but labor and cement plus electricity, but the market for bricks is extremely broad. , And the cement bricks are more regular, there is almost no waste, the craftsmen are easy to work, and the work is fast under their hands. Compared with the red clay bricks, they are more competitive.

After pondering for a while, he said: "When will you leave?"

Zhang Feng said: "Don't worry, you should prepare first, and wait until I get in touch. Let's just go ahead and make a decision before the end of the year."

Fang Lan also nodded and said: "If it can be fixed before the Spring Festival and the installation starts in the first month, basically you will see benefits in February and March. It really is a good way."

Zhang Feng smiled and said: "There is one more thing. If you take the time to chat with Zhong Nan and the others, see if you can contract the barren mountains at the mouth of the Dongyu River. You can find any excuses, but the contract period may be fine. Let’s talk a little longer, um, those mountains are all stone mountains, so I’ll treat them as mining rocks, and tell them that they are digging out the mountains to fetch rocks."

Fang Lan was startled at first, and then smiled: "It was the same thing when I came to you yesterday. The amount of sand and rock in the Dongyu River is also limited. Unless there is a big flood, the sand and rock in the river are not enough for us to mine it like this. Your plan is pretty good. If you open up the mountains and get the rocks, those barren mountains will be enough for us to collect for many years!"

Zhang Feng smiled, did not reveal more information, in fact, no one would believe it.

Seeing that the time is almost up, Zhang Feng said: "You guys rest, I have an appointment with someone to discuss things, and I won't be back at night."

When he arrived at Tao Ranju, Ye Qing had been sitting on the sofa and sipping tea for a while. As soon as Zhang Feng arrived, Ye Qing beckoned to the waiter and brought a few refreshments, and put a sea of tea up, Ye Qing I personally played Kung Fu tea, but in a moment, the tea was full of fragrance in the room, full of fragrance.

Zhang Feng said: "Unexpectedly, you still have such a skill!"

Ye Qing smiled slightly and said, "What do you think, when I am a man?"

Zhang Feng shook his head and laughed, took a sip from the tea cup, and couldn't help but praised: "Good tea!"

Ye Qing sighed and said, "This tea is from Zhou Ruiying."

Zhang Feng was stunned when he heard the words, and then he pondered for a while and said, "Xia Peng's widow, Zhou Xiaoyun's cousin?"

Ye Qing nodded and said, "After Xia Peng died, Zhou Ruiying did not return to Beijing, but continued to stay in Zhou'an. She is still working in the county bureau. She originally planned to reschedule it later. If she didn't plan to go back. , Just solicit opinions. You can’t leave a deputy department on the back of the back office. It used to be the chief of Xia Peng. Now there is no Xia Peng, you don’t need to avoid it."

Zhang Feng was silent for a while before saying, "Is the latest thing a bit troublesome?"

Ye Qing smiled bitterly, "Not only is it troublesome, but it's also not a normal trouble."

Zhang Feng said "Oh" and said, "Since Zhou Ruiying gave you such good tea, it must be related to the Zhou family?"

Ye Qing said with a "huh" and pondered: "The news that Zhou Ruiying passed through is that the few people who make cigarettes are actually raised by some people. They are used to collect money, and they are not something ordinary people can handle.

Zhang Feng was taken aback. He had already thought about things very complicated and serious, but he didn't expect it to still be out of his expectation: "Who raised it? Zhou Ruiying won't talk to you half way?"

Ye Qing said: "According to Zhou Ruiying, these people are her brothers in the lobby. The two principal offenders are also executed prisoners who were specially brought out from prison. They were sentenced to death for making fake cigarettes. No one knows how to do it. However, I checked the background of a few people, and it turned out that there are two prisoners on death row, and they have already been executed."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Feng suddenly developed a layer of goose bumps on his body, and secretly said that he was afraid that he was in serious trouble.

Ye Qing's face was also ugly, and said, "Zhou Ruiying is Zhou Xiaojun's person, and Zhou Xiaojun and his lobby brother are rivals. The two of them had a fight last time. Xia Peng was both bought by the eldest son of Zhou's family. Without the Zhou family eldest son behind, Zhou Xiaoyun would not be nearly killed."

Ye Qing smiled bitterly and said, "So, Zhou Ruiying came to tell me this, just to drag us in."

Zhang Feng sighed and said: "If there is no news of Zhou Ruiying, we would be able to pretend to be confused and let people go, or even send them back to jail, nothing will happen, but now, I'm afraid we can only fight with the eldest son of the Zhou family. ."

Ye Qing nodded, and said in a deep voice, "I suspect that Zhou Ruiying was instructed by Zhou Xiaojun to do this."

Zhang Feng closed his eyes and meditated for a while before he said, "What does this eldest son of the Zhou family do?"

Ye Qing said, "The deputy director of the Provincial Security Department, he is only thirty-five years old this year, a very powerful person."

Zhang Feng frowned upon hearing this, and said, "You used to be under his hands, right?"

Ye Qing shook his head and said: "The wind, horse and cow are not related. Although I have some connections in the provincial government, I have nothing to do with the Zhou family."

Zhang Feng scratched his head and pondered: "This is not easy to handle. When people clean up, we are like squeezing dead ants. What are we fighting against? Moreover, the Security Department is a relatively special department, and there is almost no settlement with other systems. It’s hard to find a relationship. Well, in the end, Zhou Xiaojun will not watch us reconcile here."

Ye Qing chuckled and said, "You don't want to reconcile this way. There is no door."

Zhang Feng pondered for a while and then suddenly said: "Those people are still being held in the armed police detachment? Do you think the other party will stop talking?"
