Chapter 1037: Great Good News

Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu strolled until past two in the afternoon, and feeling tired, they returned to the hotel.

As soon as they entered the main gate, they saw Wu Hongkang reading a newspaper in the rest area.

"Old Wu!"

Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu called out as they went over.

Wu Hongkang raised his head, looked at the two of them carrying big and small bags, and said helplessly.

"How big are your hearts? I've been sitting here waiting for you, and I haven't even eaten lunch. You two, on the other hand, went shopping; I'm truly an emperor who isn't anxious, while the eunuch is anxious."

Zhou Andong laughed heartily and sat down, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and very diligently lit one for Old Wu.

"Thank you very much for your concern, brother, but this matter is useless even if you're anxious. We can only let them jump around for now and see the momentum before deciding."

"That's true!" Wu Hongkang nodded: "You've eaten, I need to find a place to eat."

Zhou Andong hurriedly said: "We haven't eaten either, let's go together."

Wu Hongkang was stunned: "When I paged you, weren't you eating?"

"What time was that?" Zhou Andong winked at Jian Qiu.

Jian Qiu understood: "Brother Wu, wait a moment, I'll send the things to the room and then we'll go eat together."

Zhou Andong moved to a position and sat down beside Wu Hongkang.

"I originally thought about finding you for dinner around three o'clock. Since you didn't eat lunch, let's eat dinner early. If you're hungry at night, I'll treat you to a late-night snack."

Wu Hongkang curled his lips, and Zhou Andong said unhappily: "What are you curling your lips for? Can't I afford to treat you to a late-night snack?"

Wu Hongkang let out a hum: "Then wait, I'll come find you at twelve tonight to eat a late-night snack."

"No!" Zhou Andong said: "Who eats a late-night snack at twelve in the middle of the night? Isn't earlier fine?"

"I'm not hungry earlier." Wu Hongkang crossed his legs, smoking very leisurely: "Just go eat at twelve."

"......"

Zhou Andong was speechless: "If I said I'd treat you to a late-night snack, just pretend I didn't say it."

"No!" Wu Hongkang said seriously: "I'm not deaf."

Wu Hongkang was very serious: "I heard you say it, how can I pretend I didn't hear it?"

Zhou Andong looked at Wu Hongkang resentfully: "Old Wu, after being inseparable from Zhang Shenghui these past few days, you've learned to be bad. We can't be like this, being too serious isn't good."

"No!" Wu Hongkang said seriously: "I like being serious, otherwise I couldn't have become the factory director of Red Star Winery, and this habit can't be changed."

Zhou Andong gritted his teeth: "Fine, Old Wu, you wait. If you don't come to knock on my door at twelve tonight, I'll go knock on your door."

"Oh!" Wu Hongkang didn't answer, stood up abruptly: "Sister-in-law is back, let's go, let's go eat."

Zhou Andong rolled his eyes, Jian Qiu walked over quickly, holding Zhou Andong's arm: "Let's go!"

After they finished eating and returned, it was already past four, and they happened to run into Li Ling and the others coming out of the hotel.

"When did you get back?"

"Just got back!" Li Ling said: "Went to the room to find you, but you weren't there. We planned to go eat first and then come back to report to you."

Zhou Andong asked: "Is it done?"

"Done." Li Ling nodded: "Zhao Liangping has wide connections; no matter which department he went to, he just had to say a word and it was handled very readily."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Go eat, you don't need to report to me when you come back. Go see Zhuo Qihua with Zhou Anlei tomorrow, talk until it reaches 500 million, and then sell it to him. If he can't give 500 million, then forget it."

"Good!" Li Ling agreed and took the people to eat.

Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu returned to the room. After a while, Zhou Anlei ran over, saying as if he were claiming credit.

"Chairman Zhou, do you know what price that Zhuo Qihua gave?"

Zhou Andong thought for a moment: "400 million!"

Zhou Anlei opened his mouth wide: "How did you know?"

"Guessed!"

Zhou Andong took out a cigarette and lit it, then threw half a pack of cigarettes to Zhou Anlei.

Zhou Anlei lit the cigarette and smoked it with great enjoyment.

"I think it's because the price of the land is far lower than the market, and Zhuo Qihua is determined to get it, so he gave a price of 400 million all at once."

Zhou Andong looked at Zhou Anlei with surprise: "Not bad, you haven't learned in vain these two days; you've made progress."

"Hehe..."

Zhou Anlei laughed, scratched his head: "I was just pondering blindly."

Zhou Andong said: "Hand it over to Li Ling and the others to talk tomorrow; you don't need to worry about it."

When Zhou Anlei heard this, he became anxious: "Not letting me talk anymore? What about the money?"

"Can the King of Hell owe you, a little ghost, money?" Zhou Andong waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, go back."

"I..."

Zhou Anlei was unwilling and wanted to argue, but seeing Zhou Andong's gaze, he was so scared he hiccuped, couldn't say a word, and turned to leave.

At this time, Jian Qiu came out of the bedroom after changing clothes: "Eh, Second Lei left?"

Zhou Andong nodded: "Left!"

Saying that, he picked up the remote control and turned on the TV, tuning it to Yangcheng TV.

"I'll go take a shower first." Jian Qiu walked into the bathroom, and soon the sound of flowing water rang out inside.

"Beep beep beep..."

The pager in Jian Qiu's bag beeped. Zhou Andong stood up, took the bag over, opened it, and took out the pager; it was Liu Qingjun from the electronics factory.

Turning back, he grabbed the phone on the sofa cabinet and dialed it. Soon the other party answered, and Liu Qingjun's voice came through.

"Chairman, Lin Benjian from the United States has arrived, and he also brought seven foreign engineers from Carl Zeiss and Cymer companies."

Zhou Andong was stunned, and immediately reacted, almost jumping up.

Lin Benjian was awesome; not only did he come himself, but he also brought seven engineers from Carl Zeiss and Cymer companies.

"You arrange for them to meet with the old director first, and we'll talk about the treatment after I go back."

If it were twenty years later, it would be normal for foreign engineers to come to China to work.

But in this era, people who could risk coming definitely weren't here to make contributions.

One reason was Lin Benjian's human favor, and the second was for money.

Therefore, the treatment for Lin Benjian and these seven foreign engineers definitely had to be higher than when they were abroad.

In this way, one had to consider the treatment of domestic scientific research personnel; the difference couldn't be too big either.

Zhou Andong gave a few more instructions, then hung up the phone, and remained in a state of excitement.

When he saw Jian Qiu come out of the bathroom, he walked over, picked her up, and threw her on the sofa.

"I just finished showering." Jian Qiu tried to resist, but was immediately suppressed by Zhou Andong. 【1037-

As the clouds cleared and the rain stopped, Jian Qiu, panting heavily, rode on top of Zhou Andong and opened her mouth to bite him on the shoulder.

"Are you not annoying? We still have to go take a bath."

"Let's go together."

Zhou Andong picked up Jian Qiu and entered the bathroom.

"Why are you so excited today?" Amidst the sound of rushing water, Jian Qiu's voice came through.

"I received some earth-shattering good news."

As soon as Zhou Andong finished speaking, Jian Qiu let out a shriek.

"What are you doing?"
