Chapter 2066: Calculation

Qiao Zhengmin snorted coldly and continued: "It's better to say less about such baseless rumors. Besides, you are still a section chief, you should play a leading role, do you know?"

"I know, Director."

Ma Sanqiang stood at attention, saluted in a model way, and then followed Qiao Zhengmin into the office with a grin.

"Second Uncle, can you say it now?"

Qiao Zhengmin sat on the sofa, and Ma Sanqiang diligently made a cup of tea and placed it in front of his second uncle.

Qiao Zhengmin looked helpless: "You are in your thirties, almost forty years old. Use your brain for what you say and do in the future. Is that kind of thing something you can say in the corridor?"

"I was wrong!"

Ma Sanqiang sat opposite with a cheeky face, then crossed his legs and lit a cigarette.

"I'm not anxious? You don't think about it, I and your nephew's wife and children have been squeezed into a room of less than thirty square meters with your old sister for a lifetime."

"If your second uncle had been transferred here a year earlier, your housing problem would have been solved." Qiao Zhengmin sighed, then shook his head: "Heaven's will is like this, there is no way."

Ma Sanqiang said urgently: "Second Uncle, you haven't said yet, are you building cadre buildings or not?"

"Building!" Qiao Zhengmin had no choice, so he told his nephew: "It's not just cadre buildings. What does our office building look like? If you stomp your feet a little harder, the floor will shake. After the money arrives, the office building must also be built."

Ma Sanqiang stood up, his joy uncontrollable: "Great, if the money can arrive by the end of the month, we can move into a new house next year."

Immediately after, this guy sat down again, the excitement disappeared, followed by worry.

"Zhou Andong said it, those used for aerospace engineering, the higher-level departments will definitely supervise them. If we want to move a part of it to build buildings, will there be problems?"

Qiao Zhengmin drank tea leisurely, then looked at Ma Sanqiang, smiling.

"It's true that it's used for aerospace engineering, but the First Research Institute, Second Research Institute, Third Research Institute, Fourth Research Institute, including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Seventh Research Institute, etc., are all seriously short of R&D funds."

"Do you only let the Fifth Research Institute eat meat, and not even give other departments a sip of soup? If so, guess if they will make trouble? Once they make trouble, the higher-ups will also have a headache, so this money will naturally have to be distributed evenly."

"As for how to distribute it, how much to distribute, and what projects to use it for, isn't it all up to us? And the purchase of consumables is also purchased by our Commission. You say, where can't we scrape some money out?"

Ma Sanqiang grinned and gave Qiao Zhengmin a thumbs up: "High, really high, worthy of being the director, the Taoism is really deep."

Qiao Zhengmin reached out to take the ashtray and pressed the cigarette butt into it.

"We not only want to build cadre buildings and office buildings, but this year's bonuses will also be increased by a large chunk for everyone, and everyone can have a fat year."

"Zhou Andong is really a good person."

Ma Sanqiang said with great emotion, but there was no trace of gratitude, but the irony was obvious. I guess he was scolding Zhou Andong as a big fool in his heart.

"Indeed!" Qiao Zhengmin nodded in agreement: "Zhou Andong is really a good person."

Then, the uncle and nephew looked at each other and laughed loudly.

…………………………

After four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was already slanting west, but it still radiated scorching light. Zhou Andong slowly turned into Anqiu Hutong.

When his gaze swept across the entrance of the hutong, he saw Old Cricket's tricycle parked quietly at the gate at a glance.

"Big Brother!"

A crisp shout broke the silence. Zhou Andong looked up and saw Old Four running out of the courtyard like a happy little bird.

"Daddy!"

Immediately after, Su Su also stepped on her cute little short legs, climbed over the high threshold with difficulty, and rushed towards her father impatiently.

Zhou Andong hurriedly squatted down, stretched out his hands, first hugged the little meatball rushing over tightly, feeling the intimate hug of the little meatball. Then, he freed an arm and took Su Su into his arms.

Su Su's little face leaned on her father's shoulder, laughing non-stop.

Zhou Andong kissed the two little girls on the face, then picked up Su Su, held Old Four's little hand, and walked into the courtyard.

At this time, Jian Qiu, with a big belly, came out of the kitchen.

"These two girls, hearing that you are coming back tonight, waited for you in the courtyard after eating."

Zhou Andong kissed Su Su on the face again, and then heard Old Four shout.

"Big Brother, there's me too."

Zhou Andong bent down helplessly, kissed Old Four again, and then Jian Qiu.

"Is the visa processed?"

"Processed." Jian Qiu nodded: "Yours and Wentian's, they are all tourist visas, only fifteen days, is it enough?"

"Enough!" Zhou Andong said with a smile: "I am only responsible for the negotiation, and there is a professional team responsible for the follow-up matters. Whether I am there or not is not important."

"Old Cricket is here, drinking with Dad."

Jian Qiu wanted to hold Su Su, but the little girl struggled to the ground, and then ran away with Old Four.

Zhou Andong shook his head helplessly and asked: "Old Cricket sent something good again?"

"I don't quite understand, you go ask Old Cricket." Jian Qiu said with a smile: "Also, you hurry up and eat, Grandpa said to go to his place once you come back."

"Okay!"

Zhou Andong agreed, stepped into the restaurant. Everyone else had finished eating, only Old Zhou and Old Cricket were drinking.

"Oh!" Old Cricket stood up: "Chairman Zhou, I knew you were coming back tonight, so I cheekily asked for a drink and waited for you to get home."

"Don't say these polite words between us." Zhou Andong sat down: "From now on, you treat this as your home, come whenever you want, eat whatever you want, just tell the kitchen and let them make it for you. As for the wine, this is what our family lacks the least, enough for you to drink."

Old Cricket was very moved. If someone else said such words, he would just take it as a joke.

But this is what Zhou Andong said, he believed it was definitely from the heart, then he didn't even drink the wine, turned back and said to Old Zhou.

"Old Zhou, I'll take Chairman Zhou to see the goods first, and we'll drink again when I come back."

Then he pulled Zhou Andong out of the restaurant, entered the third courtyard, and pushed open the door of the living room.

Zhou Andong asked with a smile: "Old Cricket, seeing you so anxious, there must be something extraordinary."

Old Cricket pointed to a large wooden box on the coffee table and said triumphantly: "Not extraordinary, but definitely good stuff."

Zhou Andong's curiosity was hooked, walked over, opened the wooden box, and inside were all porcelain, about a dozen items.

For such a long time, Old Cricket also knew that Zhou Andong knew nothing about antiques, so he didn't sell it, and took out a jar from inside.

"Do you know what this is?" ===== CHAPTER 2067 =====
