Chapter 3627

These days, Lin Shaoguang called Su Xinghui every day to report on their progress in running projects in the provincial capital. Of course, what Su Xinghui focused on listening to was Cao Yuanhao's performance in the provincial capital.

Cao Yuanhao's home was in the provincial capital, but he didn't live at home. Instead, he opened rooms at the Provincial Government Guest House with Lin Shaoguang and the others. According to him, it was to better run the projects because the Provincial Government Guest House was very close to the provincial government.

When they first went to the provincial capital, Cao Yuanhao did stay at the Provincial Government Guest House for two nights, and his wife, Sun Zhenhua's niece, also brought their son to stay at the Provincial Government Guest House for one night. However, after that one night, his wife went back to live at home.

This was because Cao Yuanhao's son was in junior high school, and his home was very close to that key middle school, while the Provincial Government Guest House was too far from that school, making it too inconvenient to stay there.

After those two days, Cao Yuanhao seemed to be elusive. He said he had to socialize every night and didn't take Lin Shaoguang and the others with him. He went out to entertain himself all over the world, sometimes returning to the Provincial Government Guest House very late, and sometimes simply not returning at all.

For two mornings, Lin Shaoguang got up early and discovered that Cao Yuanhao had only returned to his room in the morning.

Cao Yuanhao spent money like water these days. He had to treat people to meals every day, and basically, no meal cost less than 1,000 yuan. Especially for the leaders of relevant functional departments such as the Provincial Transportation Department, every meal was delicacies and famous cigarettes and liquor, and it might cost several thousand yuan for one meal. When eating, Lin Shaoguang and the others did participate.

The tens of thousands of yuan Su Xinghui had Cao Yuanhao take with him had basically been spent, and the expenses for his entertainment outside at night hadn't been counted in yet. It was unknown how much more would have to be spent.

Su Xinghui couldn't help but shake his head. This Cao Yuanhao really spent money fiercely. The tens of thousands of yuan he had him take with him was originally intended for him to run the provincial capital and then run Jingcheng, but it looked like the expenses in the provincial capital weren't even enough.

However, it was hard to say anything about such a small matter. After all, he was running two such large projects. To get others to handle things well, spending money was necessary. Now, if you don't treat people to meals, it's really hard to get things done.

Tens of thousands of yuan, you could say it's not big, and you could say it's not small. If it were Su Xinghui, of course, he would try his best to be frugal. But how could Cao Yuanhao be frugal? To him, such public funds were better used than not, and it didn't matter if they were used. It was estimated that his own entertainment expenses outside were also put in to be reimbursed together.

Su Xinghui thought for a while and didn't say anything. He just had Lin Shaoguang keep an eye on the progress of the projects. Lin Shaoguang said that their progress in running the projects was relatively smooth. Now they had already stamped several seals, and after stamping a few more, the procedures that should be handled in the province would be handled. After that, they would have to go to Jingcheng to run the projects.

Su Xinghui listened to Lin Shaoguang's report and was relatively satisfied with their progress. It seemed that Cao Yuanhao's money wasn't spent in vain and was still effective. Therefore, Su Xinghui turned a blind eye to Cao Yuanhao spending money so fiercely this time.

Who knew, after two days, Cao Yuanhao called Su Xinghui, saying that the money they brought to the provincial capital had been spent, and asked Su Xinghui to send some more money over, or transfer it directly to his card.

Su Xinghui really couldn't help but ask where Cao Yuanhao had spent the money. Cao Yuanhao was very righteous and said that he had treated the leaders of those relevant functional departments to meals and entertainment. If it weren't for treating them to meals and entertainment, these two projects wouldn't have been run so smoothly now. He also said that his treating people to meals and entertainment all had invoices, and he would reimburse them with invoices when he returned.

Su Xinghui asked how much more money he needed, and he said carelessly that another 40,000 or 50,000 would be about enough.

Su Xinghui couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly. However, to be honest, running two such large projects and only spending a little over 100,000 yuan was not much. Many local governments, wanting to ask for 1 million yuan in funds from the province, might have to spend tens of thousands, and in the end, being able to get tens of thousands was already not bad.
