The Pentium Era - South to North

This year's Spring Festival is on January 26th. Zhang Chen and the others arrived in Sanya on the 24th. Today's Sanya is different from the past. It has become a hot spot for domestic tourism. During the Spring Festival, hotel accommodation is very tight. The price of the hotel has almost doubled than usual, but it is still full. Even Zhang Chen and his villa in the tropical botanical garden are already full.

Zhang Chen felt very strange and asked Cao Minfang, our hotel in the Botanical Garden only opened this year and has not done any publicity. How come so many people know about it?

Cao Minfang smiled and said: "You have forgotten that we have to receive so many meetings and trainings a year. Some of them are held directly at the Botanical Garden Hotel, but they are not held at the Botanical Garden Hotel. They are held at the Banmutian Resort Hotel. Eventually, their banquet will be held at the sea restaurant in our botanical garden.

"Seeing such a fairyland-like place, these people, if they come to Sanya with their families and friends during the Spring Festival, why not stay there?"

Zhang Chen understood and said with a smile, did you deliberately arrange that banquet?

Cao Minfang also laughed and said, "They need it too. They stay in the same place all the time, looking at the same sea. It's still fresh for the first two days. When the freshness wears off, they still don't die of suffocation. They like to go to Half Acre for meals. Tian Hotel.

"There are many hotels in Sanya now that host conferences and trainings. We are always the best in terms of business. We have many choices for our guests, which makes them look colorful."

The nearby Jinling Resort is under renovation and has not yet been completed. They are staying in their own hotel this year. These rooms were squeezed out by Cao Minfang. Even Zhang Chen could not arrange a suite, but lived in a standard room. .

Cao Minfang discussed with Zhang Chen. She said that the nursery opposite the hotel has been moved to the Tropical Botanical Garden. She wanted to expand the more than ten acres of land in the original nursery into the second building of the Half Acre Resort Hotel.

Zhang Chen said yes, you ask Jason and the others to come up with a plan.

Cao Minfang said yes.

Zhang Chen and the others arrived at noon. In the afternoon, Cao Minfang took them to the Tropical Botanical Garden. The Tropical Botanical Garden is now one of the most popular attractions in Sanya. Most of the reason is because Zhang Chen accepted Mr. Han’s It is recommended that the Tropical Botanical Garden is free of charge.

In this way, almost every tourist group that comes to Sanya will be taken here by the tour guide. Firstly, this place is really beautiful, and almost every tourist who comes is amazed. Secondly, it is easy to spend half a day here, and tourists , and I didn’t know that it was actually free, which is of great benefit to travel agencies.

Cao Minfang and Zhang Chen said that although admission here is free, they estimate that this year it will be self-sufficient. More people will come, which will drive the popularity of their hotel restaurants, sea restaurants and cafes, shops, as well as diving and other leisure places. The business also brought business to their hotel. Some people came here to see it and stayed here the next day.

Therefore, although the tickets are free, the revenue has not been reduced. When our marine life museum is completed next year, more people will come here.

Zhang Chen asked Cao Minfang, is that Jacques still there?

Cao Minfang said that he went to Shanghai and there was a garden project at the World Expo, as well as the Canada Pavilion, which he designed.

"No wonder I didn't see you bringing braised vegetables." Zhang Chen said with a smile.

Cao Minfang also laughed. She told Zhang Chen that when Jacques left, he called all the contractors together, gave them a lecture, and told them, you half-brained people, don't mess with me. I understand you very well. I know you will cut corners, but I will come back. If I find out, no matter where you go, I will drag you back here to rework.

Zhang Chen laughed.

They took a battery car to the viewing platform on the top of the mountain. The view down from here is even more beautiful.

The two land reclamation warriors were very excited when they saw this place. Lao Zhang and Cao Minfang said, Mr. Cao, when we retire, we will come to your place to plant trees and raise fish.

Xiao Zhao's father nodded repeatedly.

Cao Minfang smiled and said: "Okay, these two uncles are very good workers. Even the workers in the nursery can't do their work better than you."

Zhang Chen looked at Lao Zhang and said with a smile: "Didn't you retire a long time ago?"

Lao Zhang glared at him, and Zhang Chen finally realized. He remembered Xiaofang's words. For the old people, retirement is after being empty again and again, and the children have left them. That is the real life. Retirement, for Xiaozhao's parents, means waiting until Xiaoshu and Xiaofang get married. For his parents, it means at least waiting until Zhang Xiangbei starts college.

With fewer people coming and going at home, the old man's heart cooled down, and he felt that he needed to find a secluded place to stay quietly. Only then would they truly retire.

Xiang Nan was also excited. She said, "I will definitely come here to make a movie in the future."

Tan Shuzhen blurted out: "Then you must first be admitted to the film school."

One stone sent shockwaves, and Zhang Chen's mother immediately said: "We Nannan will definitely pass the exam. Look at the actresses on TV, which actress is as good-looking as our Nannan."

Mrs. Tan snorted: "That's right."

Lao Tan scolded from the side: "Only a mother like this would look down on her own daughter!"

Tan Shuzhen quickly raised her hands and shouted: "I surrender, I surrender. Our Nannan will definitely be a big star in the future. I am the mother of the star. I am counting on her."

Zhang Chen, Xiang Nan, and Cao Minfang laughed. Xiang Nan proudly said to Tan Shuzhen, "It's hard to mess with such a strong group of relatives and friends, right? Are you trembling?"

Tan Shuzhen nodded and said with a smile: "It's not easy to mess with them. They are all your biggest fans. From now on, you will be the idol of the elderly."

Xiang Nan went to hit her angrily, but Tan Shuzhen grabbed her hand and hugged her.

Old Liu pointed to the glass house on the sea and asked, what is there?

Zhang Chen told him that it was a restaurant on the sea, a place for drinking and eating.

When Lao Liu heard that it was a drinking place, he immediately laughed and said that drinking is good.

Cao Minfang said to him: "Uncle, our dinner will be arranged here."

Upon hearing this, not only Lao Liu, but also everyone else was very happy.

Cao Minfang pointed to the villa not far from the top of the mountain and whispered to Zhang Chen that only that one was empty now.

Zhang Chen asked: "What, you want to sell it too?"

Cao Minfang smiled and said, how dare you.

That was the house that Zhang Chen left for himself. He would live here with Xiao Zhao in the future. He didn't want many strangers to live in their rooms, so no matter how good the hotel business was, Cao Minfang did not put this house into the house. A villa is rented out.

…

Hearing that Zhang Chen had arrived in Sanya and learned about the situation of his team, it seemed as if he knew that he didn't even have a company to drink night wine with at night. That night, Xiao Ding specially came over to accompany Zhang Chen for a late-night snack.

They did not go to Banmutian Hotel. Xiao Ding said that there were too many acquaintances there and they could not even drink a glass of wine.

They went to the Chunyuan Seafood Food Stall. Most of the people who came here were tourists from other places, and there were not many locals in Sanya.

The two of them chose a table and sat down. Xiao Ding asked, should they cook on the stove or stir-fry?

Zhang Chen said, let’s make a side stove.

Xiao Ding said yes, he called the waiter and ordered the dishes. He didn't go over to look at the weight of the seafood and asked the waiter to weigh it for them.

Zhang Chen smiled and said, "Are you so confident about them?"

Xiao Ding said: "With this Sanya dialect, they don't dare to be short of a pound of gold. If they are short of a pound of gold, they will be short of you mainlanders."

I don’t know since when, Hainan no longer has big aphrodisiac wine or small aphrodisiac wine, but only deer turtle wine. The two of them ordered two bottles of deer turtle wine and started drinking.

Xiao Ding and Zhang Chen said: "Something happened to Lao Xu."

"Old Xu? Xu Lixing, Deputy Mayor Xu?" Zhang Chen asked, "What's wrong with him? I want to see him."

"Can't see, let's go in." Xiao Ding said.

Zhang Chen was shocked and asked quickly: "What do you mean by going in?"

"Take bribes, get caught, go in." Xiao Ding said.

Zhang Chen was stunned. The figure with a swarthy face and a bowed figure immediately appeared in his mind. He could not imagine that this person would be associated with the word "bribery". This person said that the whole family only Someone who supported him as a college student, and he wanted to do it not only for himself, but also for his family?

This man who has become the deputy mayor himself and whose wife is an ordinary worker at the farmer's market, who said he wants nothing more than a smooth sailing until retirement and a stable life, actually "accepted bribes"?

Zhang Chen was so impressed by this person that he even thought that he was the replica of Liu Chengcheng. Unexpectedly, the replica failed to turn out to be successful and actually overturned.

Zhang Chen's shock can be imagined.

"Can't you think of it?" Xiao Ding asked.

Zhang Chen nodded and said, I really didn't expect that. Although I didn't meet him a few times, I left a deep impression on him.

"We didn't expect that something could happen to him. Everyone in our compound was dumbfounded. We originally thought that even if the stone lion at the door would accept bribes, Xu Lixing wouldn't be able to do it. He was hiding it too deeply."

Xiao Ding sighed and continued: "Also, from what was discovered later, he not only accepted bribes, but also demanded bribes, and his appearance was ugly. So many hotels and tourism projects in Sanya have to be approved by him. , think about it, how many people have asked for him?

"This is such a shame. He probably thinks that these investors are all from outside anyway. He reached out to them without knowing it. He doesn't understand that God is watching what people are doing. Where are the party disciplines and state laws? The mirror is hanging high. You can't escape either. Fortunately, you have Brother Tan in this project, otherwise, I guess he would reach out to you, and you would be in trouble now."

"That's a bribe." Zhang Chen said, and he also felt scared.

"Yes, all projects involving bribery companies have now been stopped and re-approved." Xiao Ding said, "This is a big trap for people."

"Are you not affected?" Zhang Chen asked.

"I don't." Xiao Ding said with a smile, "I am a person who is usually called to eat, drink and have fun, but I don't dare to touch that kind of money in front of me. I have suffered a lot for greed, so we put a It's not enough for Brother Tan to harm him, but he also harms himself? I'm not exaggerating. If Xiao Zheng and I are really greedy, we have plenty of opportunities, but in this regard, everyone is very upright. "

Zhang Chen nodded and said, "That's how it should be."

"It was also Brother Tan's education, a living education. Brother Tan paved the way for several of us. If we are sorry for ourselves, we must also be worthy of him." Xiao Ding said.

Zhang Chen raised his glass and said, "Okay, I'll toast you."

Xiao Ding picked up the cup, clinked it with Zhang Chen, and the two of them drank it in one gulp.

"Moreover, think about it, what's the point in being like Xu Lixing? He's about to retire, and he's still so greedy. He doesn't dare to spend the greedy money. Will it look good at home? Not only do he not dare to spend it, He didn't even have normal consumption, and his wife still wanted to take advantage of the market to close down and buy the worst and cheapest vegetables.

"I'm just pretending. I'm afraid people won't understand him. With your normal income as a deputy mayor, would you be so poor that you can't even afford food? Is it too much to pretend? But you really deceived so many of us. .”

Xiao Ding said, shaking his head constantly.

Zhang Chen asked: "Does Brother Tan know about this?"

"I didn't tell him." Xiao Ding said, "Think about it. There is no need to crush the little good things in people's hearts. Let Xu Lixing, in the big brother's heart, still be the original Xu Lixing."

Zhang Chen thought about it and realized that Xiao Ding's statement was correct.
