The Pentium Era - South to North

Only an hour later, Mr. Tan called Zhang Chen and told him that Mr. Xia had called him and decided to hand over the hotel project to their company.

"I heard that you recommended it, Xiao Zhang. Thank you. This is a big project." Mr. Tan said.

"It's just a little effort for me. In the past, my eldest brother took care of me in the company, so what's the point of being so polite?" Zhang Chen said with a smile, "By the way, eldest brother, when are you going to Sanya? Their plan is more advanced." urgent."

Mr. Tan laughed loudly and said, "I'm on my way there now. I knew you couldn't leave, so I didn't call you. This plan is for you, but Mr. Xia asked you to do it. You must help me."

"Brother, you're welcome. My girlfriend is with Mr. Xia, and this matter is my own business." Zhang Chen said.

Mr. Tan smiled and said: "I know, I will come back tomorrow and give you all the photos and information."

Zhang Chen said yes, I will also hurry up here.

When Mr. Tan arrived in Sanya, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. Mr. Xia, Jin Lili and the others were waiting for him at the Bayview Hotel. The weeds on the construction site had been cleared away. Manager Cai's construction company had also re-entered the site. Outside the hotel The scaffolding has been re-erected. When investors come here next week, it should be a lively scene.

After Mr. Tan arrived, he exchanged a few words with Mr. Xia and immediately said, "I'm in a hurry and we'll talk later." Mr. Xia smiled and said, "You go about your business and we'll have dinner together later."

Mr. Tan and his men took two cameras on the construction site and took hundreds of photos inside and outside. In order to rush for time, they decided to find a Caikuo store in Sanya to develop and print the photos so that they could get the photos back to Haicheng early tomorrow morning. , if we take the film back to Haicheng for printing, we will not be able to get the photos until the day after tomorrow at the earliest, which is a waste of a day.

Mr. Tan asked where the Caikuo store was, and hurriedly said goodbye to Mr. Xia and the others. He went into the city and found the Caikuo store. He told the other party that it was urgent and he would like it tomorrow morning.

"If you want to rush, each photo will cost you 30 cents. I'll give you a discount, just add 25 cents." The owner of the Caikuan store looked at a dozen Kodak 135 films on the glass counter, each with 36 sheets, which is roughly After a moment, I knew this was a big deal.

"Okay, okay, you can just work overtime at night and get me out." Mr. Tan said to his boss.

Mr. Xia, Jin Lili, and Lao Bao were still on the construction site, looking inside and outside. Standing on the platform at the entrance of the hotel and looking left and right, Mr. Xia always felt that something was missing.

Mr. Xia thought for a long time and figured it out. He asked Lao Bao to find Manager Cai. I had something to say to him.

Manager Cai came over soon. Mr. Xia pointed to the two unfinished hotels on the left and asked him, who are the owners of these two hotels? Do you know them?

Manager Cai shook his head and asked Mr. Xia, what do you want to do?

"Borrow their space for half a day next Wednesday afternoon. You can arrange for some people to come over and do whatever they want on the construction site. As long as you can see from here that the construction site is still under construction normally."

Manager Cai was confused and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Don't worry, can you do it?" Mr. Xia asked.

"What's so difficult about this? The two bosses, like the one surnamed Chen, have all escaped, so there's a guard left on the construction site. Just bring a piece of meat to them. You can do whatever you want when you go in."

Manager Cai said, and Mr. Xia nodded. He said yes, you will arrange for people to come over then, and they will all be active outdoors. Don't hide in the shade, so that they can be seen from here.

Although Manager Cai didn't understand what Mr. Xia was going to do, he still agreed. Isn't it just to arrange some people to walk around under the sun? What's the problem?

Jin Lili and Lao Bao, standing on the side, already understood Mr. Xia's thoughts. On Wednesday afternoon, it was when they arranged for investors to come here to see. Mr. Xia didn't want them to see that Sanya was dead. It scares them into retreating.

He wanted them to see that not only was Sanya not dead, but everyone was still working hard. Only in this way could they raise their worth and negotiate terms with investors.

Mr. Xia looked to the right. The hotels that had opened and the entire Dadonghai beach were deserted. On the white beach, except for a few casuarina trees standing proudly, there was no one. Although the sun was shining brightly on the beach, It was normal that there was no one there, but the parking lot of the hotel was also sparse, and the cafe under the row of awnings was also empty, so it couldn't be fooled.

"Manager Cai, can you find some cars and park them in the parking lot over there? We'll pay for the parking and send some people to sit there and drink coffee?" Mr. Xia asked Manager Cai, pointing to the hotel on the right.

"Okay, I'll let the trucks and tractors that deliver goods to us park there. There's no rule that tractors can't be parked. People will just pass us. At worst, work here will be stopped for half a day."

Manager Cai said, Mr.

"That's right, otherwise no matter where you send them, all my people will be here."

"Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything." Mr. Xia said quickly, "Don't worry about this. All your people can just work on this construction site for me. I will figure out a way for both sides."

Manager Cai walked away full of suspicion, wondering what the hell he was doing.

After Manager Cai left, Lao Bao and Jin Lili couldn't help laughing. Their stomachs hurt from laughing. Mr. Xia himself also started laughing. After laughing, he cursed, "You are still in the mood to laugh, why don't you think of a solution quickly?" .

Jin Lili said: "It would be easier if we were in Haicheng. At worst, we can ask Zhang Chen to send dozens of people to the construction site to show off, and then call a few friends to sit there and drink coffee."

"As you can tell in Haicheng, I can fill these parking lots just by saying hello to my friends. The problem is that in Sanya, it's too long to go back and forth in one day. I can't let them come so far." Mr. Xia He cursed, frowning.

"Then there's nothing I can do." Jin Lili sighed and looked at Lao Bao, who quickly shouted: "Don't look at me, Mr. Xia knows all the people I know. Mr. Xia has nothing to do, so I can There is no way."

"Slippery!" Mr. Xia scolded.

"By the way, Mr. Xia, you can either ask Mr. Tan to help. Mr. Tan has many people. At worst, we can hire a few buses to come here."

Jin Lili said that Mr. Xia's eyes lit up. Yes, there were so many construction sites under Lao Tan. She told him the difficulties directly. At worst, he would ask him to arrange for two or three construction sites to stop work for a day and arrange for people to come over to fill the scene. , what’s happening here now is also his business.

"Okay, leave this matter to Lao Tan, he has someone." Mr. Xia shouted.

During dinner, the two groups met at the seaside restaurant of Jinling Resort. Jinling Resort is also in Dadonghai. It was the first to be built in Dadonghai and was one of the most upscale hotels at the time. In the afternoon, Mr. Xia stood at the door of his hotel and faced right. Point your finger at Jinling Resort.

The scene at Jinling Resort was indeed miserable at that time. During dinner time, there were only four or five tables of guests in the restaurant. Although the business of several big hotels in Haicheng was not as good as before, at this time, it was still full. Some of them still needed Queuing up, I didn’t expect Sanya to be in such a depressed state.

They are all old friends and customers. Mr. Xia has nothing to hide. He told Mr. Tan about his difficulties and asked Mr. Tan to send hundreds of people from Haicheng to come on that day. I will arrange the bus.

"Just this little thing?" Mr. Tan asked.

"It's such a small thing, my fucking scalp is almost scratched." Mr. Xia cursed.

"Haha, then your Lao Xia's scalp is so worthless." Mr. Tan said with a smile, "Why don't you just have one or two hundred people as extras? How about I arrange three hundred for you and get some people on the beach? .”

"That's great!" Mr. Xia shouted, "Xiao Jin, hurry up and secure the bus tomorrow morning, and then go to Mr. Tan's place to pick up people."

Jin Lili said yes, there is no joke in the army. When the number of people is not enough, then I don't care, I will recruit Tan Zong to fill up the number.

Mr. Tan laughed and waved his hands: "Don't make arrangements. If there are three hundred people, go to Haicheng to make arrangements. We will solve it on the spot."

Solve it on the spot? Mr. Xia and Jin Lili were stunned and looked at Mr. Tan, what kind of solution is this to solve on the spot?

Mr. Tan asked Mr. Xia: "Lao Xia, have you forgotten where you came from?"

When Mr. Xia heard this, he slammed the table and shouted, "Oh, Lao Tan, why did I forget this?"

Jin Lili and Lao Bao looked at the two of them. Mr. Xia said to them: "You have forgotten that Lao Tan came from the Yulin base. He used his connections to go to the base to find hundreds of soldiers who were off that day to come and help. not simple?"

Jin Lili and Lao Bao suddenly realized.
