After having a simple breakfast, the two of them drove to their destination, the border county called Rigui, the closest to the bridge site.

Xu Shu told her that there were two or three hundred kilometers from the airport to the county town. Zhao Nanxiao knew that the expressway here was still under construction and was mentally prepared for the existing road conditions. When he was on a business trip, he had encountered difficult roads. But not long after he got on the road, she realized that she still estimated the road conditions here to be too optimistic, and she felt a little lucky that she did not rush to the road overnight last night.

A considerable part of this lane of hundreds of kilometers is driven in the mountains, and it is winding along the mountain. Many sections of the road are very narrow and can only pass by two construction vehicles that travel opposite each other. On one side of the road are cliffs and abyss. Although the roadside is equipped with protective piers, it still makes people feel a little scared. Moreover, it rains heavily, and the already aging and damaged road surface is even more muddy. When the car comes, mud and water splash under the wheels.

Zhao Nanxiao knew that Xu Shu was driving fiercely, so he wanted to remind him to slow down when he saw the road conditions. He also suspected that he didn't like his troublesomeness and didn't even trust him to drive and asked him to point fingers. He held back for the time being, and planned to decide whether to speak according to the situation.

Fortunately, he drove very steadily today, so there was no need for her to say anything. He arrived at the hospitality hotel in Rigui County at noon. When he arrived, the tires and half of the off-road vehicle were covered with yellow mud, and it seemed that he had rolled out of the mud pit.

It is indeed as Xu Shu said in the morning. Mr. Qin and his group were still stranded in the hotel before entering the mountain, waiting for the road to resume traffic. A cadre named Li, who was in charge of construction, was also there. He was talking to Mr. Qin and others. When he saw Xu Shu arrived, he shook hands and said, "The road collapsed here yesterday, and the situation was serious. Governor Fang heard the news and rushed over overnight. The bus arrived in the morning. No one had a rest. He went directly to the scene with the county magistrate and others to inspect the dangerous situation and guide the work. I will stay here and temporarily receive Mr. Qin and the others for you."

"I'm working hard." Xu Shu thanked him.

Cadre Li told him not to be polite and smiled at Mr. Qin: "This is Xiao Xu, the engineer I just mentioned to you. Don't be young and very capable. After coming here for more than a year, he can communicate with locals in their language, be familiar with the situation, and be proficient in business. He is the command assistant and early contact designated by Commander Ding of our Bridge Command. This time he is responsible for contacting your work."

Mr. Qin shook hands with him: "Thank you for the next few days, Xiao Xu."

Xu Shu said: "I know Mr. Qin. You have presided over the construction of more than 20 bridges at home and abroad, most of which are large key bridges, covering railway and highway cities and cross-sea. You have also won many national awards and are a bridge master. Being able to work with you is a rare learning opportunity for me. If you have any needs, I will try my best to cooperate and help you advance your work as soon as possible."

Qin is a master, and he is usually very humble and simple, but here he met a young man who knows so well and respects his life. I just heard Cadre Li mention him, saying that he is the son of President Xu, the project investment and construction party. It is rare for young people to be so down-to-earth and willing to work hard. He is in a natural and happy mood. He also has a good impression of this humble young man. He smiled and said, "Xiao Xu, you don't have to be so polite. It should be said that both of us, plus the supervisor, cooperate with each other to promote the work together."

Chen Songnan only found out today that Xu Shu was the representative of the Bridge Project. He was very surprised and couldn't help but say: "Brother..."

He paused, glanced at Mr. Qin, and changed his words: "XCMG, I didn't expect you to be so powerful! It's great that we can work together again in the future!"

Xu Shu smiled and nodded at him, shook hands with several other engineers from the design institute one by one, and introduced each other.

Lin Yang is also a member of the design team. He stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "XCMG, my surname is Lin, who is responsible for the bi technology. You must have heard that bi is an advanced field that has just developed in recent years. It has an important guiding role in energy-saving design, engineering cost calculation or later project construction optimization, etc. At present, it can be said that Stanford is the authoritative research in this area. When I was studying at Stanford, bi was a key scientific research direction for me. Please give me some advice on my future work."

Xu Shu glanced at him and smiled: "I dare not. Lin Gong gave me more advice."

He reached out and shook Lin Yang, then let go.

Mr. Qin looked at Zhao Nanxiao who had stayed in the corner and had not spoken before after coming in, and asked with concern: "Xiao Zhao, are you okay? Why can't you contact me yesterday morning?"

Zhao Nanxiao felt a little embarrassed.

On the way she came, she also thought that when she met, Mr. Qin would definitely ask her why she was late. Naturally, she could not tell the truth, but how to explain it. After thinking about it, it seemed that she could only use her sudden illness to shirk it.

It's a bit scary to know this reason, and it's impossible to reasonably explain the shutdown for a day. Maybe it will also cause Mr. Qin and the others to worry about their health, but it seems that apart from this panacea excuse, she really can't think of anything else that can be said.

Everyone looked over. Zhao Nanxiao hesitated for a while and was about to speak when he heard Xu Shu say, "That's right. On the way to pick up Mr. Zhao, I heard her say that the bag was accidentally taken away by a thief after going out. Later, he made up for a temporary ID card and a mobile phone card, which was delayed. It's okay."

Mr. Qin suddenly realized: "So that's the case, no wonder the phone keeps turning off. It's good that people are fine."

Zhao Nanxiao breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Xu Shu, and happened to meet the gaze he cast, and nodded gratefully at him.

At this time, his cell phone rang, he answered it, and after the call, he said to Mr. Qin: "Governor Fang called me just now and asked me to tell you that the collapse of that section of the road is relatively large. In addition to the local rescue vehicles, zj also urgently sent construction vehicles to participate in the dredging, but it will not be opened until tomorrow. Governor Fang asked you to rest peacefully today, you can go around nearby and have a walk and play. The snow-capped mountains are more than ten kilometers away from the county town, and the scenery is very good. If Mr. Qin is interested, I can be a guide."

Mr. Qin shook his head: "No need. The task is tight, so we should hurry up and continue working."

"Okay. I won't bother you, Mr. Qin. I will live with you these days and contact you anytime if you have any questions."

Among the group, Zhao Nanxiao was the only one who was a woman, so he naturally lived in a single room.

After settling down, she went to Mr. Qin and discussed the design plan with the team. After a busy afternoon, Xu Shu called in the evening and said that Governor Fang and his group were back and wanted to invite Mr. Qin and his others to have dinner before leaving. Mr. Qin was happy to be invited and took the people to the dinner.

The dinner party was invited to a local restaurant. In addition to the people from the design institute, the local county magistrate and several major cadres from the county who went to rescue during the day also came. There were more than a dozen people sitting next to the large round table in the private room, which was very lively.

Governor Fang is a man with dark skin. He doesn't speak much official accent and smiled: "I invited this meal to the evening to thank ZJ and the Design Institute. Thank you for your hard work and wisdom in the construction of our autonomous prefecture. Of course, there is also investment. I hope that the bridge, as a high-speed control project, can start construction as soon as possible and complete it as soon as possible, so that local people can benefit, investors can also benefit, and create a win-win situation."

"Don't worry, I will pay for this evening meal out of my own pocket. I can still afford to invite a friend's meal."

He added another humorous sentence.

A burst of laughter came from the private room, and the atmosphere became more relaxed and warm. Naturally, the topic was still around this super-large bridge that was about to be put into construction.

After three rounds of drinking, Governor Fang said: "Xiao Xu, the investment amount of your highways you invested in and built in our local area has exceeded 10 billion yuan. The original investor of this bridge contract section was actually worried that the investment was large and recycling was a problem. Then he changed his mind and withdrew it in the middle. Fortunately, zj took over in time, which allowed the project to proceed smoothly. At the critical moment, you zj is still reliable and are old friends of our autonomous prefecture!"

Xu Shu smiled and said, "Governor Fang Yan Chong. I am not from the group's investment department, but every time I make an investment, the business department must have conducted research. This also indirectly shows their confidence in the long-term development of the western region."

"Indeed." Governor Fang nodded and said, "The commander-in-chief of the Bridge Command is the head of your Southwest Headquarters, General Ding of your ZJ Southwest Headquarters, and the expert technical team is composed of three experts from the Supervision and Design Institute. I am very relieved and looking forward to it if you have experts like Mr. Qin to protect the bridge. Mr. Qin, I would like to wish you a cup on behalf of the people of our autonomous prefecture."

Mr. Qin refused, but couldn't refuse and drank it.

There was a chat and laughter at the wine table, and the wine glasses were coming and going, but Zhao Nanxiao was a little awkward.

When he first came in and sat down, Lin Yang did not sit in the seat of Mr. Qin, but sat directly next to her. During the meal, he was very attentive, frequently adding drinks to her and handing her tissues. Zhao Nanxiao couldn't stop her. He couldn't even shy his face in front of so many people. At this time, a new dish came up. He picked up a chopstick and tasted it himself first, then took the public chopsticks and then picked up a chopstick to her plate, and whispered considerately: "Try it, do you like this taste? I tried it for you just now, and it tasted pretty good."

Zhao Nanxiao: "No! Master Lin, please take care of yourself. I want to eat it and I can pick it up."

"Don't be polite. Eat more. If you're hungry at night, it's inconvenient to have a midnight snack here."

He is affectionate.

Zhao Nanxiao resisted his anger and tried to keep a distance from him as far as possible.

I was feeling uncomfortable when I suddenly heard someone talking to me: "Xiao Zhao, and Xiao Xu, young people like you, outstanding talents, are willing to come to us from a place with good conditions to build. It is really rare. It happened to rain these two days and the road conditions are very bad. Come here today, it is very hard on the road, right?"

Zhao Nanxiao raised his eyes and saw Governor Fang looking at him with a smile, looking concerned, and everyone on the table looked over.

She quickly glanced at Xu Shu who was mentioned with her. Seeing that he didn't say a word, she hurriedly concentrated her energy and said a few polite words, saying that it was not hard.

"Governor Fang, you don't know that Gong Zhao and XCMG are working together now, and they were classmates in college before!" Chen Songnan interrupted.

Governor Fang seemed a little surprised, looked at Xu Shu, and then nodded with a smile: "So that's the case! It's also a rare fate. When the expressway bridge is completed in the future, it will be very convenient for us to come here again. At that time, you are welcome to travel again."

Zhao Nanxiao felt that Governor Fang’s words were a little bit wrong, but he couldn’t tell which sentence was wrong, so he didn’t pick the words and responded vaguely: “Okay, come again if you have time.”

Mr. Qin was not drunk enough and was toasted by local county cadres at the same table for several rounds. He was a little drunk. In addition, he had to work tomorrow morning and had almost finished his meal. The guest and host had fun and parted at around 8 o'clock. They went back to rest.

The room Lin Yang lives is relatively low and you have to pass Zhao Nanxiao's room. Zhao Nanxiao returns to the room. He walked all the way and followed her. He kindly reminded her to rest early in the evening, saying that the altitude here is high and you should pay special attention to altitude sickness when you first came. If someone feels uncomfortable, remember to tell him as soon as possible that he brought some medicines for altitude sickness.

Zhao Nanxiao said: "I'm pretty good. Just take care of yourself as a mate," said Zhao Nanxiao.

When the room arrived, she opened the door and closed it.

Lin Yang stood outside her door for a while before he continued to step away.

Chen Songnan walked behind, and the room arrived. He took out the door card and opened the door to go in. Suddenly, he saw Xu Shu parked at the door of his room, waved to this side, and ran over hurriedly.

Xu Shu stared at Lin Yang's back in front of him and signaled him to come in.

"Brother, is there anything wrong? I just wanted to come to your room to play for a while, but I was afraid that you would be tired from driving today and disturb your rest." Chen Songnan was very happy.

Xu Shu closed the door, asked him to sit down, and poured him a glass of water.

Chen Songnan hurriedly stood up: "Brother, don't! I'll do it myself!"

Xu Shu asked him with a smile: "Xiao Chen, let me ask you something, do you have some meaning to Mr. Zhao?"

Chen Songnan jumped up from the chair with a "scarlet" and shook his head: "How is that possible?" Seeing him smiling at him, he shook twice, stopped, his face a little hot, and said, "Forget it, brother, you ask, it's nothing to tell you! I did have some ideas before, but now I don't think about it anymore. It's impossible! Her grandfather is an academician, and with his own conditions, I'm younger than her! How could she like me? It's useless to think about it!"

Xu Shu coughed: "I want to correct you. Being smaller is never the key to the problem. But you are considering the problem carefully, which is quite right."

He paused: "Xiao Chen, what's wrong with the Lin in your yard? He was having dinner at night and was as if he wanted to serve Gong Zhao?"

Speaking of Lin Yang, Chen Songnan immediately went gossip and nodded: "Yes! Brother, you can see it too? Let me tell you, this Lin Gong, who is usually in the yard, looks like no one looks down on him, keeps talking about Stanford, and waits for the yard to be promoted to the leader. I heard that when Zhao Gong first entered the yard, he chased her and couldn't catch up. A few days ago, Gong Gong's mother came to our yard to find the leader. After she left, we realized that Gong Gong's grandfather was Academician Shen Laoshen. Now Lin Yang is excited again and pursued Gong Zhao desperately. I really admire him for his enthusiasm at night. He is awesome! Didn't it mean that the strong girl is afraid of being pestered by her? If he insists on this, maybe one day, Gong Zhao will be caught up by him. If I want me, I will not be able to do it. I deserve no girlfriend."

Xu Shu smiled and said, "It's okay, if you have the chance, I will introduce you to a suitable girlfriend."

"Really? That's great, thank you brother!"

The two chatted for a while, Chen Songnan went back to the room to rest, Xu Shu saw him off, closed the door, turned around, the smile on his face disappeared, and hesitated for a moment, and hesitated for a while, and walked out.

Zhao Nanxiao was about to take a shower when he suddenly heard someone ringing the doorbell and went over to open the door. When he saw Xu Shu standing at the door, he was a little surprised: "Is there anything wrong?"

Xu Shu glanced at her and said, "I'm tired when I come here today?"

Zhao Nanxiao shook his head: "I'm not tired, it's your car you drove. Are you tired?"

"I'm not tired!" He immediately denied.

Zhao Nanxiao thought he had something to say, so he waited for a while, but he stopped talking when he saw that he was in his pocket.

One of them stood outside the door and the other in the door, quiet and quiet. The atmosphere was so harmonious that Zhao Nanxiao felt a little embarrassed. He hesitated and said, "Come in and sit for a while?"

"No, no!"

Xu Shu suddenly took out a fruit candy from his pocket and handed it over.

"I have nothing to do with you, I just tell you that people in the plateau will lie down and their energy consumption is greater than that of the plains. It is very necessary to replenish some sugar in time. If you have nothing to do, just eat one."

He finished her with a serious tone and added: "Don't be afraid of getting fat. You're quite thin."

Zhao Nanxiao:...

She reached out and took it.

"Thank you."

"It's okay, rest, I won't bother you."

He nodded at her and turned around and left.

Zhao Nanxiao looked at his back and closed the door.

Xu Shu walked back to his room quickly, and as soon as he entered, he pounded his head hard and let out a "bang".

I originally wanted to invite her to have a midnight snack. I saw that she didn't pick up a few chopsticks when I saw this meal. I was afraid that she would be hungry. Why did she get used to being timid again when I got to her?

When she was a junior high school student, she was one year older and taught him all day long. The sequelae left behind by her being a human being was not bad, but it has not been completely cured yet.

Zhao Nanxiao didn't know someone's depression, so he took candy and put it on the table, took a shower, thinking that he would work in the field tomorrow, and he was a very large bridge with an investment of nearly 2 billion yuan. He was still a little moved and wanted to keep his energy up. After going to bed, he read the book for a while and turned off the lights and went to bed.
