Chapter 443 Chu Jiang is frustrated
Guo Shaoda was shocked, wondering if something had happened to the child.
"What's wrong with my son?" Guo Shaoda asked hurriedly.
"Don't worry, it's nothing serious, but as a parent, you have to come!" The other end said, "Come quickly, it will be bad if you miss the time!"
Then the call was hung up.
Guo Shaoda was instantly struck by lightning.
Didn’t something happen to the child?
He was very panicked and hurriedly called Yang Yong, saying that he had to leave his job early and hoped that he would take over as soon as possible.
Yang Yong agreed on the phone, but he didn't rush over.
After all, the gate management station has nothing to do on weekdays.
Even when it is the season to open the floodgates to release water, we just need to follow the instructions from above and push the necessary switches. That's all that's going to happen.
What does it matter if you go earlier or later?
That desolate sluice gate management station has not had any leader come to visit it for eight hundred years.
So, Yang Yong didn't take it to heart at all.
On this side, Guo Shaoda rushed to the school in a hurry. It was time for students to enter the campus.
The bustling crowd of students rushed from the dormitory building to the teaching building.
There is a street between the school's dormitory building and teaching building.
On the side of the street, Guo Zixuan was standing next to a tall and burly man.
That person was Lei Long.
Guo Shaoda hurried over and was relieved to see that his son was fine. He looked at Lei Long with confusion.
Lei Long smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Guo, your son is very lucky!"
He pulled the big turntable next to him and said, "We prepared a free lottery for the students this morning. Your son happened to pass by and drew a prize. He won the grand prize of 200,000 yuan!"
"The bonus amount is quite high, and your son is still in school, so we need his guardian to collect the bonus, so I called you!" Lei Long said with a smile, "Is it okay?"
"No, no!" Guo Shaoda's eyes turned into crescents from smiling.
Two hundred thousand, and his annual salary is only more than 20,000.
He had to live frugally for decades to save up these two hundred thousand!
Not only was his son fine, but he actually won the lottery. This ups and downs made him even more excited.
Lei Long said: "It's not safe to carry cash with you. You just need to tell us your bank account number and we will transfer the money to you directly now!"
Guo Shaoda was wary at first, but then he thought it didn't matter if he told the other party his bank card. Even if the other party was a scammer, he couldn't cheat anything.
So, he told Lei Long the bank card account number.
Lei Long transferred 200,000 yuan to Guo Shaoda as promised.
After receiving the money, Guo Shaoda was extremely excited.
"Thank you, thank you so much!"
Lei Long smiled and said, "You're welcome. Your son is lucky!"
Of course, he was behind all this.
The two hundred thousand yuan from Jiang Ning was a reward for his hard-working spirit in his previous life.
Of course, it is also to provide some help to his poor family.
Afterwards, Guo Zixuan went to school happily, and Lei Long chatted with Guo Shaoda for a few words.
"Your son is really good, he is polite and energetic. He will definitely have a bright future!" Lei Long said.
Every parent likes to hear their children being praised. Guo Shaoda was in a good mood and couldn't help but chat with Lei Long for a few more words.
On the other hand, Tang Zhongying sent someone to call the gate management station, but no one answered.
When Guo Shaoda said goodbye to Lei Long, it was already time to get off work, so he went straight home, happily bought some side dishes and went out for a drink.
In this way, Jiang Ning saved a family and used 200,000 yuan to alleviate poverty.
On the other side, Tang Zhongying was in a state of panic.
The water level continued to rise and the entire construction site became a river.
Seeing the foundation slowly sinking and collapsing, and various machines soaked in water and gradually disappearing, Tang Zhongying felt heartbroken.
More than two months of work were ruined in an instant.
And, it’s even worse than it was in the beginning.
Because after the flood, a lot of work needs to be done to restore it to its original state, which is an extremely complicated task.
Moreover, after the area under the construction site has been flooded, the soil quality will change, and the cost will have to be recalculated and the plan will have to be re-made.
Tang Zhongying shook his head helplessly, lit a cigarette, and remained silent.
Of course, the water conservancy department must compensate for the losses due to their negligence, but as a down payment, he does not lack those compensations. The progress and time of the construction site are the most important.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon and the construction site will have to stop for about a month. The construction schedule is already seriously behind schedule, so he will have to gather all his efforts to work on this project next.
But if this happens, resources will be dispersed here and we won’t be able to go all out when bidding.
How do I tell Tang Song about this?
Tang Zhongying was very distressed.
However, Tang Zhongying had not yet anticipated the worst outcome.
Because the amount of water released from the sluice gates is unprecedented, this place will become a lake in just one day.
Tang Zhongying's project is basically scrapped.
Not only is it useless, he has to use all his human and material resources to maintain it.
After the Tang Group’s catering business was shut down, the family lost tens of billions of dollars in assets.
Now he wants to make up for his losses with the Pingjiang project and take up the banner of Haicheng Construction No. 1 Group again.
As a result, this project caused him to suffer a severe setback.
He could almost foresee that in the days ahead, he would be involved in endless lawsuits with the water conservancy department, and no one dared to employ his Tang Group's construction company for a while, let alone participate in bidding.
Tang Zhongying sat dejectedly on the hilltop of the construction site, and for a moment he seemed to have aged ten years.
A day later, Tang Zhongying was sitting in the office in a daze when Tang Song called.
"Mr. Tang!" Tang Zhongying said weakly, "What's the matter?"
"What's the matter?" Tang Song said angrily, "If I don't ask, you're not going to tell me, right? Let me ask you, are you going to increase the resources invested in your Pingjiang project?"
Tang Zhongying said helplessly: "You know everything! I can't do anything about it, it's just a natural disaster or a man-made disaster!"
"You know this is a critical moment!" Tang Song said, "In less than a month, we will start bidding for the dock project. If you transfer resources now, how can we compete with our competitors? Do you want to watch the dock fall into Jiang Ning's hands?"
"Then what can I do?" Tang Zhongying was very depressed and said, "Even if I don't invest resources in the Pingjiang project, the bidding team won't believe it. I'm already exhausted and my strength has been greatly reduced. This is a fact!"
"You...really disappoint me!" Tang Song said angrily.
"Mr. Tang, I really can't do anything about this mess!"
Beep, beep, the other end has hung up the phone.
