New ideas and new plans

Zhang Wen was the last one to go home, and the first sentence after entering the door made Zhang Fenglei very serious: "Brother, why didn't you bring my sister-in-law back?"

Zhang Feng glared at Zhang Wen and said, "What are you talking about? No big or small!"

Kong Lingshan agreed: "You are not young anymore. The marriage can't be dragged on forever. Both your dad and I think Xiao Tang is pretty good."

Zhang Wen laughed and said, "I'm not wrong, did I? Sister Xiao Tang can be compared... Um, that, in short, it's pretty good, brother, don't be fooled."

Zhang Feng frowned when he heard this. He wanted to tell his parents about Yang Xiaolan. It seemed that he had no hope. He didn't even mention Yu Mei and Chen Huishan. The possibility of marrying them and going home is slim, but Zhang Feng also didn't bother to tell his family members. They could think whatever they wanted. Anyway, Xiao Tang has already returned to Changsha. It's hard to say whether he can meet again in the future.

Dinner is black rice porridge, with iron sticks, Chinese yam, jujube, lily, and lotus seeds cooked in it. The Zhang family is a family of herbal medicine, but these things are always available, just like the home-cooked dishes of ordinary people. It is very convenient. I usually eat wild vegetables as much as possible at home, and they are all medicines, but now living in the city, it is naturally not so convenient, but there are still similar vegetables on the table. For example, the cold houttuynia cordata, but it does not have a special flavor.

Unless he is at home, Zhang Feng rarely eats these things. No one cooks this kind of food outside, unless you specifically request it, and it is also inconvenient. Therefore, every time he goes home, he can eat it with relish. , I finally put down the dishes and chopsticks. Zhang Feng was planning to talk about his National Day trip, but he heard Zhang Wen said: "Brother, are you on National Day holiday?"

Zhang Feng said casually: "Yeah, what's up?" Zhang Wen is already in his second year of high school, and his grades are not bad, much better than Zhang Feng imagined, and he is well taken care of by school teachers. As for whether there are Zhang Feng's factors in it. It’s really hard to say. Last time the teacher Zhang Wen said met his parents, Zhang Feng had never seen anyone before, and then he forgot to go behind his ears and never went again, but Zhang Songjie went there several times later.

Zhang Wenxi smiled and said: "Our school is also rare to be kind. We did not exploit the only three-day holiday. Together with Sunday, we can have one more day off. Will our family go out together?" Since Zhang Ke split up last year After the Zhang family was disturbed, there was no peace for a few days. Later, even the ancestral home was sold. Now it has finally stabilized, and the family's mood has become much more stable. Zhang Wen's proposal is very exciting.

Zhang Feng's lips moved, and his eyes turned to his parents' faces: "What do parents mean?" It depends on what the parents think. It is said that a family sits around a table, which is actually quite different from before. After all, the family has been separated. Zhang Ke's family of three has now gone out independently. Although the relationship has eased a lot, there is usually no contact except for the New Year's Day, and they rarely even talk.

Although Zhang Yi went to college in this province, he rarely loves his family. Zhang Feng always deposits his living expenses into his account through the bank on time. The two elderly people also occasionally give extra money, so Zhang Yi can hardly think of paying back here. There is a home, as long as there is time, most of them ran out to travel around the mountains, and even owed a phone call to the home. Of course, it was not that he was ignorant, but that there was really nothing he could worry about at home.

Ordinarily, National Day Energy Conservation has such a few days of holidays. Zhang Yi, who is studying in this province, will go home anyway. However, he went directly to Linchuan City to play, and Zhang Jing called to school to find out. So, this If there is no Fang Lan's family in the house, it will still be deserted. As for the family Zhang Wen said about going out, I guess Zhang Songjie is not in the mood.

Sure enough, Kong Lingshan shook her head slightly, and said, "What's there to visit? The clinic is still under renovation. My father and I can't go away. The quarry and brick factory are busy, and your sister and Fang Lan are busy. There is no time, and you are not young. You will have the college entrance examination next year. Don't just think about playing..." In a few words, the topic will turn to Zhang Wen's study, and Zhang Wen's head is downcast right away.

Zhang Songjie took out a pot of dry tobacco and filled it with cigarettes and said: "Yes, your mother is right. The clinic is busy and can't go away." After a pause, he said, "Wenwen really wants to go out and play," A Feng will take it with you. Your unit will go out for shopping, don't you care about how many people there are, right?"

Zhang Feng was a little stunned: "Who said the county party committee is going to organize a go out to play?"

Zhang Wendao: "I still use people to say it. It has long been spread. This year, the county will organize a trip to the south on the National Day. Not only the county party committee, but also several units. Both the Education Bureau and the Health Bureau have a share. The principal of our school and All the education directors go, and our dad has a part too."

Zhang Feng really didn’t know this, so he couldn’t help but was a little surprised. He turned his head and glanced at his father. Zhang Songjie is a special expert at the county hospital. If there is such an event, it would be no problem to give a place. He was originally invited because of him. To be an expert, it would be a bit abnormal if you didn't take care of such small things. Therefore, Zhang Feng didn't doubt Zhang Wen much.

Zhang Song nodded and said: "The Health Bureau does have such an event and has already notified me. However, because of the clinic, I can't leave for a while. What's more, I have already offered to resign and enjoy the benefits of the hospital. Some are not appropriate, so they are rejected. As for whether the county party committee has this activity, it is hard to say, but even the education bureau has a share, how could the county party committee be vacant?"

Zhang Feng was a little strange. He knew the financial situation of the county much better than others. It was not a small expense to organize such a large-scale event. Why didn't he hear any news? This is too outrageous, isn't it, I deliberately grabbed the phone to ask, and then felt that it was a little inappropriate at home, so I held back and asked my sister Zhang Wen: "How do you know that your principal and education director are going to travel? "

Zhang Wen smiled and said: "The education director Zhao Zhi's son is in the same class with me. The squad has been preaching everywhere, and he will follow."

Zhang Feng nodded and said, "I don't know yet. If there is such an event, Wenwen can go if he wants. It's not a big deal."

Zhang Wen was a little excited immediately: "Then Little Tang Sister is going?"

Zhang Feng shook his head and said, "She has already returned to Changsha, and she is not here to celebrate the festival." After a pause, "I'm going to make a call, you guys talk first."

The phone was installed in Zhang Feng’s previous master bedroom. Now it is the bedroom of Zhang Songjie and his wife. Zhang Feng closed the door after entering the bedroom. He didn’t want the family to hear something. Once it was passed out unintentionally, it might be a matter of right and wrong. So, Under normal circumstances, he rarely talks about business at home, and occasionally makes a phone call to avoid family members, otherwise, there is an extension in the living room, and there is no need to call in the bedroom.

After the incident at the nitrogen fertilizer plant, the Finance Bureau was basically in the hands of Zhang Feng. Although he rarely interfered with Huang Ying’s daily work, Huang Ying would still report to Zhang Feng in time for large revenue and expenditure projects. It is basically impossible for this situation to happen today. Zhang Feng did not speak, and Xu Yuan could not get the money from the Bureau of Finance. He had to go around in a circle to obtain Zhang Feng’s consent. Therefore, what happened today was strange to Zhang Feng.

Sitting by the bed, Zhang Feng was wondering who to call first, but the pager in his pocket rang. He took out a look, but it was Zhou Yong's call. He pressed his mind and gave Zhou Yong back. , As soon as the phone was connected, Zhang Feng said: "Why haven't you called these days?"

Zhou Yong usually calls back three or two days to report. Even if there is nothing wrong, he will leave a page and leave a message. Suddenly, he didn’t call for nearly a week this time. Although Zhang Feng didn’t say anything, his worries were Indispensable, I was worried about what Yang Xiaolan would do over there, and also worried about Zhou Yong's safety. Those in the mountains and old forests, who knows if there will be moths.

Zhou Yong’s wry smile came from the other end of the phone, saying: "I have been in circles in the mountains these days. Where can I call?" After a pause, he explained in detail. It turned out that the broken school supported by Yang Xiaolan encountered It was difficult. After a heavy rain, the only classrooms in the school collapsed, and all the students moved to the open-air classes. Many students simply stopped going to school due to family reasons. Yang Xiaolan and Jiang Zhen’s family visited them. To persuade those children to go back to school and study in the mountains and forests, Zhou Yong naturally can only follow to protect them secretly, and there is no time to come out and call.

Zhang Feng had already forgotten Jiang Zhen. Hearing Zhou Yongyi's words, he couldn't help but curiously asked, "What's the matter with Jiang Zhen?"

Zhou Yong said with a wry smile: "Who knows, I feel that there seems to be something wrong with that girl's head, otherwise, who would do such a stupid thing."

Zhang Feng shook his head and said, "I'll be there tomorrow. You can wait in the nearby town."

Zhou Yong pondered for a while before he said, "Should I drive to pick you up? It's remote and no one leads the way. I guess you will find it dark."

Zhang Feng said: "No traffic?" After a pause, he patted his forehead and said, "Also, I will leave a message for you on the plane tomorrow morning."

After hanging up Zhou Yong's phone, Zhang Feng immediately called Li Guanyu again, saying: "Book me a ticket to Dongyang, tomorrow morning."

Li Guanyu was eating out at this time. After receiving a call, he quickly agreed, and then said: "Zhang***, there is something else I want to report to you, are you at home?" He used the county ration. Zhang Feng's analog phone can see the phone number and know that it is Zhang Feng's home phone, so I asked for instructions. Under normal circumstances, Zhang Feng doesn't like working at home.

Zhang Feng came back from the provincial capital in the afternoon, and then he spent half the afternoon with Tang Moji. He hadn't seen Li Guanyu. Hearing what Li Guanyu said, he understood a little bit in his heart. Most of it was just Zhang Wen just now. When talking about traveling, he said: "What's the matter?"

Li Guanyu said, "I'll go to your home to report. It's quite simple, but it's a bit complicated to say, and it's not clear in a few words."

Zhang Feng gave an "um" and said: "Come here, then." After hanging up the phone, Zhang Feng sighed. The thing that wanted to travel happened only these two days, and it had nothing to do with the Finance Bureau. , Otherwise, it is impossible for me to have not received any news. If this matter is said to be big or not, it is not small if it is said to be small. If it is really something out of my control, then it is not a good sign.

After sitting by the bed for a few minutes, Zhang Feng came out of the bedroom. Since Li Guanyu was coming over, he didn’t need to call and ask about the travel arrangements of several units, but he still felt a little uncomfortable. There should be a lot of people who know things, so why did you become the last one to hear about it? Neither Hong Ke from the county party committee nor Feng Chunyan, the Minister of Propaganda, called to tell them about it.

Needless to say, Hong Ke is the chief steward of the county party committee. There is no reason to miss this kind of thing, unless the county party committee does not participate in these activities, but the reason Zhang Songjie just said can explain the problem. How can such a good thing happen? For the leadership of the county party committee? Therefore, it is normal for Zhang Feng to feel a little ambiguity. It is also the Minister of Propaganda Feng Chunyan. The two were still on the phone before dinner. Why didn't she mention it

Fang Lan sent a cigarette to Zhang Feng and said, "Is it necessary to build a living area for the quarry in the high-tech zone?"

Last time Zhang Feng and Ye Qing talked about buying land, Fang Lan was also in front of him. Although Zhang Feng did not explain too much at the time, Fang Lan still smelled a trace of business opportunities from it. After pondering over the past few days, he felt With a bigger plan, I was planning to take the time to discuss it with Zhang Feng. I didn't expect to meet Zhang Feng at home today, so I asked him casually.

Zhang Feng was startled when he heard the words, and said, "Build a living area for the quarry?" Then he woke up and said, "Is there a god's idea?"

Whether it’s a quarry or a brick factory, it’s just an individual enterprise with a collective brand. In fact, there are not a few serious workers. The managers are all from their own family, and the workers are all temporary workers. Just do the work and disband when there is no work. The salary is calculated by piece. What kind of living quarters are built, obviously selling dog meat, but Zhang Feng knows that Fang Lan is not aimless, and he must have some plans.

Fang Lan smiled and nodded, and said: "The main goal of the quarry is the highway, but this highway cannot be built for too long. It will last three to five years. Even if there is enough demand in the future, It is impossible for us to have sufficient raw materials. Therefore, neither the quarry nor the cement brick factory is a long-term business, and there will be more and more competitors. Therefore, we have to consider other ways. "

Zhang Feng nodded when he heard this. He had thought about these things a long time ago, but at that time he was thinking about making a fortune and seizing this opportunity to make a fortune. He didn't even think about doing this for a long time, let alone Fang Lan thinking about it. It is also very reasonable. After the highway is completed, the Dongyu River Mouth area must be protected by restricted river mining. The raw materials of the quarry and cement brick factory have become a problem, and there is no way to continue to operate.

Fang Lan said: "After the highway is completed, Zhou'an County will become the main traffic road from Beiyuan Province to the southwest. The development of the high-tech zone is only a matter of time. Therefore, the land price there will definitely skyrocket in the future, although not. I know how far it can go, but now it’s almost the price of cabbage given away for nothing. It’s not the price of cabbage. Of course, this is just a preliminary plan. Without sufficient capital, it will not be worth hoarding land."

Zhang Feng smiled and said: "If you just hoard land, don't do it. So many measures have been formulated to prevent people from taking advantage of the loopholes in the future? There are so many smart people. It is not just that we see the land in the high-tech zone. There will be a substantial appreciation. The difference is only the estimation of the magnitude of the appreciation. Besides, the quarry does not have much financial resources to hoard land now, right?"

In fact, the quarry has only investment and no income. Zhang Feng has successively eaten up countless assets of Zhang Feng. That is, Zhang Feng has other means to continuously transfuse blood to the quarry. The only thing that can be counted is that it stopped production early. The income from the cement brick factory is actually the cement brick factory, but compared with the massive underlay investment of the quarry, the income of the cement brick factory is simply not enough, not to mention that several stone mountains have been opened today.

Fang Lan smiled and nodded, and said: "You’re right. Just hoarding the land, there is definitely nothing new. I plan to form a construction company. There are so many construction teams. If you pull up a few teams, you will soon be able to stand up. As long as you are willing to invest, you are afraid that you will not find a few professional talents?"

Zhang Feng was a little startled, but he didn't expect Fang Lan to have this idea. If he really wanted to form a construction company, the future would not be ordinary. Zhang Feng agreed with Fang Lan's proposal almost instantly and nodded: " My brother-in-law’s idea is quite good, but if we want to do it, we have to scale and formalize. Talents, equipment, etc. are all important."

Fang Lan said: "This is actually not difficult. Isn't our county construction company struggling to make ends meet?"

Zhang Feng gave a "Oh" and said, "Did you look at the county construction company?" After a pause, he said, "I don't know much about this. I can help you to ask questions these days. If it is possible, it is. A good way."

Fang Lan said: "This is also the easiest way. In fact, it's better to find a construction company with better qualifications and a larger brand. However, there is only this one in our county. As for setting up a private company , There are still some risks, and the procedures are also very problematic."

Zhang Feng pondered for a while, and said, "Think about it first, and wait until I ask." He remembered the matter of the City Construction Sixth Corporation that Li Shao and others had done. Maybe he could find a similar brand. , But you have to find someone to inquire about this matter. Zhang Feng himself has no relationship in this area, so he didn't say too much, so he asked someone to ask clearly before saying it.
