Hong Jingtian took a tricycle and rushed to Taoji BBQ restaurant on Qingnian Street. He saw Long Sumei and two of her colleagues sitting around a small square table, talking and waiting for the waiter to bake something. "Reporter Long, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long." Hong Jingtian walked to the table, apologized first, and then pulled out a small chair and sat down. ¡°Haha, it¡¯s okay, you¡¯ll just pay the bill then.¡± Long Sumei looked at him with a smile. "No problem, having the opportunity to invite you uncrowned kings is a blessing that I, Hong Jingtian, gained from my previous life." Hong Jingtian said with a sincere smile. Afterwards, Long Sumei introduced Hong Jingtian to two of his colleagues. Her two colleagues, a man and a woman, are both in their twenties. The man's name is Gou Dong. He has good facial features and handsome features. He is a standard handsome boy. The woman's name is Wu Na. She is petite and delicate. A pair of clear eyes are embedded in a baby's face, giving people a feeling of love and affection. After listening to Long Sumei's introduction, Gou Dong stretched out his white hand and said enthusiastically: "Brother Tian, ??hello, it's nice to meet you. Just call me Dongzi." I didn't expect that Dongzi would be so easy-going. Hong Jingtian suddenly took a liking to him, stretched out his hand, shook hands with him, and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Dongzi. I'm glad to meet you." Wu Na saw that Hong Jingtian seemed to hit it off with Dongzi, so she While rolling her eyes, after the two of them finished speaking, she looked at Hong Jingtian and whispered: "Brother Tian, ??you won't be angry if I call you like this." When she spoke, her eyes were still naughty. of rotation. "Reporter Wu, how could it be? It's too late for me to be happy." Hong Jingtian was not familiar with Wu Na, so he didn't dare to accept the move easily. But we were all young people. Just then the waiter brought the baked goods over. Hong Jingtian glanced at Long Sumei and said, "Reporter Long, how about some beer?" "Okay, you can arrange it." Long Su Mei didn't even raise her head, just picked up a skewer of barbecue and started eating slowly. ¡°Boss, bring me a beer.¡± Hong Jingtian gestured with his hand to the boss to send him a beer. Just now at the Nanping Hotel, Hong Jingtian didn¡¯t eat much, so he and Long Sumei naturally let go. After the beer was brought over, the clerk skillfully brought the wine glass over, asked for instructions, and opened four bottles of beer. ¡°Come, Reporter Long, Reporter Wu, Dongzi, I¡¯d like to toast you and welcome you to our Nanping County.¡± Hong Jingtian raised his cup and said loudly. Unexpectedly, Long Sumei raised her wine glass and said softly: "Jingtian, can you please stop calling me reporter Long? This title always sounds so awkward." "Then what should I call you?" Hong Jingtian was startled and asked Long Sumei, if he didn't call Reporter Long, he really didn't know what to call her. "I'm older than you, why don't you call me Sister Sumei." Long Sumei stared at Hong Jingtian and said with sparkling eyes. Hong Jingtian¡¯s head suddenly grew bigger, and he thought to himself: Why does this girl like to be called sister so much? Besides, this Long Sumei is not necessarily older than me. Hong Jingtian rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, as you said, but if I'm older than you, should I call me brother?" Long Sumei didn't expect Hong Jingtian to say this, and a blush suddenly appeared on his face. , fortunately it was night, the lights were dim, and others couldn't find it unless they paid attention. "Okay, then let's compete and take out our ID cards." At this point, Long Sumei glared and forced her over. Hong Jingtian took out his ID card and handed it over. Long Sumei took it and looked at it, and his expression froze. Wu Na kept urging, "Sister Sumei, where is your ID card? Take it out quickly. We I will testify for you." This little girl looks like she is afraid of chaos in the world. Long Sumei wants to seal her lively little mouth with tape. Finally, Long Sumei reluctantly turned out her ID card. Wu Na took it and looked at it, exclaiming: "Ah, Brother Tian and Sister Sumei are born in the same year, but Brother Tian is three years older than Sister Sumei." "God." After she finished speaking, she remembered the agreement between Long Sumei and Hong Jingtian, her face suddenly changed, she looked pitiful, and said, "Sister Sumei, it's not that I won't help you. I'm afraid you really have a brother this time." Seeing Long Sumei's reluctant expression, Hong Jingtian hurriedly smoothed things over, "Reporter Long, we were just joking, please don't take it seriously." "Who knows Long Sumei. Mei gritted her teeth and glared at Hong Jingtian, "Who said it was a joke? Why don't you just call me Brother Tian? I was hoping to have a brother to protect me. Brother Tian, ??you can't deny me as your sister. .¡± As soon as she said this, Hong Jingtian could only agree in embarrassment. Fortunately, the incident passed quickly, and they started drinking happily again. By the end, Hong Jingtian and Dongzi Wu Na also became very familiar. After sending the three reporters back to rest, Hong Jingtian also returned to Longyuan Hotel to stay. Later, he received a page from Secretary Luo Yunzhong. He heard that Hong Jingtian said that he had something to do at the moment and had come back first. Luo Yunzhong didn't say anything and just hung up. The call was disconnected. The national highway rerouting project officially broke ground on May 1st. However, the groundbreaking ceremony was not held in Nanping County, but on the boundary of Liyang District. It is said that not only the mayor and secretary attended the groundbreaking ceremony that day, but also the provincial deputy governor in charge of transportation construction, Qin, also personally delivered a speech. This news, after Lizhou Daily was delivered to Tongping Township, Hong Jingtian still saw it in the newspaper. Subsequently, the national highway rerouting project was divided into ten bid sections and started construction at the same time. On the boundary of Tongping Township, the Provincial Road and Bridge Engineering Company¡¯s Fifth Construction Engineering Team and Seventh Construction Engineering Team were stationed at the same time. Among them, the Fifth Construction Engineering Team was responsible for the Fuyang River Bridge project, and the Seventh Construction Engineering Team is responsible for the section from Tongping Township Government to the foot of Nanhua Mountain. As for the Nanhuashan Tunnel, another specialized construction engineering company is responsible for it. Suddenly, the entire Tongping Township became very lively. Even the township guest house and several small hotels in the township, which had been almost unoccupied in the past, were all full. Moreover, the highway from the township government to the entrance of the Nanhuashan Tunnel was also quickly occupied. Construction started. After all, building this tunnel requires a lot of professional equipment. Without roads, it would be impossible to transport it. Of the two excavators in the sand and gravel field, one was used by Song Xiaolong for the highway construction project, while the other was left at the sand and gravel field for emergency use. The people of Tongping Township have witnessed the working efficiency of excavators. Many people are repairing and building houses, and they come to hire them for construction. It¡¯s just that the roads in Tongping Township are too short, so this excavator can only work along the existing roads. Even so, this excavator is almost never idle.
