District 9

In the tea room.

Gu Yan crossed his legs and said with a smile: "Hey, Uncle Li, are you busy? Haha, I have nothing to do. I just called you to say hello. Then isn't this what I should do...!"

"Little Gu Yan, your mouth is really getting more mature." Li Cangyuan sat on the office chair and asked with a smile: "Don't beat around the bush with me, just tell me what's going on."

"Alas, nothing can be hidden from your Uncle Li's eyes." Gu Yan sighed softly and said politely: "This railway project is about to be completed, and all kinds of demons and monsters have appeared in Yanbei. What do you mean? For a small company like ours where the relationship is weak and we only know Uncle Li, we have to start running in advance."

"Haha, you can really talk nonsense."

"It's not nonsense. Didn't you meet the friend Qin Yu I brought with me at the party last night? He came to Yanbei just for the railway project." Gu Yan bared his teeth and replied: "Uncle Li, you are free tonight. No? Leave some time for me to get close to you?"

Li Cangyuan pondered for a while: "Not today, but tomorrow. I'll call you tomorrow."

"Okay, okay!" Gu Yan blinked: "Then you get busy first."

"Okay, that's it."

After that, the two ended the call. Li Cangyuan sat in his desk, playing with the phone in his right hand, lost in thought.

"How's his tone of voice?" Qin Yu asked while sitting in the tea room.

"He said he would call us tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, let's talk to him in detail when we meet tomorrow." Qin Yu nodded with satisfaction.

"Yeah." Gu Yan lowered his head and looked at his phone, then sighed and said, "I only have a week off, so we have to do this quickly."

"good."

…

The next day, it was almost evening, and Li Cangyuan still didn't contact Gu Yan.

Still in the tea room, Qin Yu was impatient to wait: "Brother, can you give him a call? Otherwise, he will forget and we will wait here all night?"

"Yes." Gu Yan picked up the phone and dialed Li Cangyuan's number again: "Hello, uncle? Haha, no, I just want to ask if you are done with your work. Ah, where are you in the meeting? Then tonight... OK, OK. , then the day after tomorrow. Yes, yes, I’ll be free depending on your time. Yeah, okay, that’s it.”

After chatting for less than five minutes, the phone hung up again.

"What did he say?" Qin Yu asked.

"He said that the project team was having a meeting, and the main cadres were living and eating in the project building, so he didn't have time to come out." Gu Yan licked his lips and said, "He made another appointment the day after tomorrow."

Qin Yu took a puff of cigarette, narrowed his eyes and replied: "He is dragging you."

"Yes." Gu Yan nodded.

"Don't want to do it?" Qin Yu asked.

"It's hard to tell. It's hard to guess what old fritters like them are thinking." Gu Yan shook his head: "Damn it, the military and political factions have very little say in this project. Otherwise, I don't have to ask anyone and I can get it directly. quota.”

"Why don't we see you the day after tomorrow?" Qin Yu asked.

"...Brother, you can't be shameless in this business." Gu Laogou gritted his teeth and said, "Let's be shameless and take down whatever he says."

"That's okay, I'm good at being shameless." Qin Yu replied smoothly.

"He must be making excuses." Gu Yan rubbed his palms and said, "Let's go block him tonight."

"Okay!" Qin Yu agreed.

…

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Gu Yan asked many friends to inquire, and finally found out that Li Cangyuan was attending a cocktail party somewhere in the city, and then he and Qin Yu drove there together.

In the parking lot of a hotel on Qianmen Street in Yanbei, Qin Yu and Gu Yan each wore a military coat, turned on the air conditioner for a while, and just squatted on each other.

The two of them were bored in the car and started chatting about all kinds of things. From the two of them talking about each other's past to their current situation, their relationship has inadvertently gotten closer.

Qin Yu was actually very grateful to Gu Yan, because the railway project was not that important to him. The fame and fortune he might get from Qin Yu in the future would be far less direct and effective than if Gu Yan found a powerful company to cooperate with in Yanbei.

To put it bluntly, how many large companies in the industry with strength and experience in Yanbei would reject Gu Yan's relationship with him? Wouldn't it be faster for people to directly find mature industry leaders than to train you, Qin Yu?

But Gu Yan finally chose to squat in the car with Qin Yu and wait for Li Cangyuan. There is mutual admiration and compatibility between the two, but there must also be a strong relationship between the two of them during the year they spent together in the police academy.

In the blink of an eye, it was past two o'clock in the morning, and Li Cangyuan still didn't come out.

Gu Yan had fallen asleep, lying on the back seat of the car, drooling and snoring.

Qin Yu stood outside the car, smoking a cigarette and rubbing his hands. He was looking around like a homeless man for something to eat, trying to fill his stomach.

He is still a figure in Songjiang, but in Yanbei he is no different from those young people who work hard in sales just to sell a single item of goods.

As your rank increases, the circles you come into contact with will also be different. In the past, the director was the top boss in front of Qin Yu, but now that he came to this position, he saw a different world.

How do you say something? Whether you are making money or struggling within the system, as long as you want to move forward and don't want to wait for death, bowing your head, bending over and kneeling are basic skills. The mentality of the young lady, the treatment of the widow, and the pursuit of the Women's Federation.

Qin Yu bought some fried noodles and returned to the car while eating. Just as he was about to put on his military coat and call Lin Hanhan, he saw Li Cangyuan walking out drunk.

"Fuck, Gu Yan, Gu Laogou!" Qin Yu stretched out his hand and shook his thigh twice: "Wake up, good chance, he came out on his own."

Gu Yan sat up in a hurry. After waiting for two or three seconds, he immediately opened the car door, rubbed his face and said, "Let's go, hurry up."

Qin Yu immediately followed after hearing the sound. The two of them trotted to the parking lot on the left side of the hotel, opened their mouths and shouted: "Uncle Li!"

Li Cangyuan turned around, smelling of alcohol, and was stunned when he saw Gu Yan.

"Oh, what a coincidence. I've always looked like you from afar, haha!" Gu Yan immediately stepped forward and asked with a smile on his face, "Why are you here?"

Li Cangyuan lowered his head and glanced at the military coats worn by Gu Yan and Qin Yu, and immediately grinned: "Nephew, you have really improved! This is not like your style."

Gu Yan was startled, scratched his head and replied, "What style? I had style when I was a kid, but now it's just rough."

"You're in trouble!" Li Cangyuan looked at Gu Yan with his hands behind his back and said to himself: "If you really want to join this project, just find some connections at home and you will be affiliated with a big company in a matter of minutes. You Who else do you need to ask for?"

"Don't you always have to do something by yourself?" Gu Yan pulled Li Cangyuan: "If you encounter him, don't leave. Let's find a place to sit for a while."

"Eldest nephew, this matter is not easy to handle now. Many people have come to Yanbei..."

"Let's go for a walk. We don't want to talk about business. I just want to treat you to a drink today." Gu Yan held on to him tightly and refused to let go.

Li Cangyuan was so stunned that he pointed at him and sighed: "I really can't do anything against young people like you."

After saying that, Li Cangyuan was half pushed and half pulled away.

…

at the same time.

Han Tong turned to the young man next to him in the car and said, "You handle the matter, I'll just make the connection."
