Chapter 1043: A brief separation is for a better reunion in the future
The bricklayers carried red bricks on their shoulders and moved back and forth like a weaver. The sound of bricks being stacked was as crisp as falling jade.
Rebar workers climbed on the steel frame and weaved iron bones, and sparks flew when metal collided.
The plumber huddled in the rough work to lay the wires, the beam of flashlight piercing the darkness, like a swarm of fireflies flying through a maze.
Under the midday sun, there is already a busy scene. Where the sweat drips, the wild flowers growing beside the construction site sway stubbornly.
Li Xiangnan handed the safety helmet to Shen Qianzhong and took him into the construction site. Looking at the building that had already completed one floor, he felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
"I didn't expect that in just one month, your project progress has almost caught up with others' two or three months! Xiao Li, you have to ensure the quality of the project too!"
Shen Qianzhong squatted on the ground and looked at a piece of steel bar that had just been tied, then quickly stood up and stepped back a little, watching the bricklayers pouring cement into the load-bearing column through brick buckets, and nodded.
"Minister Shen, you can rest assured! This construction team is from the Honghui Chamber of Commerce, and the quality of the project is absolutely up to standard! Moreover, I have been living and eating with their leader Gong Kaijiang for the past month, and I have been strictly supervising the site!"
Li Xiangnan handed him a cigarette, and the two walked to the edge of the rough first floor. Looking at the inpatient department and employee dormitory building outside, which had already taken shape, it would be a lie to say that he was not excited.
"That's good!" Shen Qianzhong nodded with satisfaction as he smoked a cigarette, and soon asked in surprise: "It's very hot in August, you've been living here? Xiao Qin has no objection?"
"Of course I have no objections. I have a lot of objections! She comes to the construction site to see me whenever she has time and scolds me to death! But she also knows that I'm not here, and everything is difficult at the beginning. If something goes wrong, it will be bad! She understands me very well!" Li Xiangnan smiled.
"You've found a good wife! Xiao Qin has always supported you! Very good!" Shen Qianzhong also admired Qin Ruobai very much.
Li Xiangnan grinned and agreed with it deeply.
"School has started, right? Isn't school busy?" Shen Qianzhong asked again.
"I'm a sophomore this year, and I've been welcoming new students these past two days! I'm busy with other things, so I've given this job to the department secretary, Ge Lu! She understands me a lot!"
"Your classmates are all very good! In the future, whether it is Nianwei Hospital or other companies, some suitable positions can be offered to help them!" Shen Qianzhong reminded in detail.
"I know!"
Li Xiangnan himself was also very emotional.
"In the past year or so, as the class monitor, I only helped them with big things. On the contrary, my classmates helped me more with small things! I feel really guilty! It's not easy!"
"Yeah, it's not easy. People are all mutual!"
Shen Qianzhong patted his shoulder and walked down the newly built stairs.
After leaving the main outpatient building of Nianwei Hospital, he turned around and looked at the building that he had watched grow up with his own eyes, and said with a sympathetic heart: "Xiao Li, I have watched you step by step to where you are today, and I am very pleased!"
Li Xiangnan pursed his lips and nodded silently.
He knew that Shen Qianzhong came here today because he had something to say to him.
"After I meet you, I will report to Zhongnanhai!"
Li Xiangnan was shocked, thinking that this moment had finally arrived.
Shen Qianzhong took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, opened it, took one for himself, and stuffed the whole pack into Li Xiangnan's pocket.
"Captain Shen, no matter where you go, in my heart you will always be Captain Shen of Sandu River, the person I respect the most!" Li Xiangnan recalled the past, his heart filled with emotion.
"You brat!" Shen Qianzhong was so angry that he laughed, "You said it as if it was a farewell forever! I'm busier than before, I can't always think of you and you come! It's not like you're dead!"
Li Xiangnan scratched his head and laughed, "Captain Shen, I really hope you can come here and sit down when you have nothing to do! I miss you so much!"
"Me too!"
Shen Qianzhong patted his shoulder and smiled like an elder: "Do a good job!"
After nodding heavily, Li Xiangnan watched him go away and finally got into a Hongqi car that had been waiting on the roadside.
A short separation is for a better reunion in the future.
Li Xiangnan always believed in the value of this sentence.
Therefore, at this moment, he did not have much sadness of parting in his heart.
On the contrary, Shen Qianzhong entered Zhongnanhai, which brought him only benefits and no disadvantages!
On the surface, he has greater support and backing.
According to the agreement, the entire project will be completed by the end of November.
This is the result of Gong Kaijiang's engineering team working overtime and using manpower.
Things on the construction site have been sorted out, and now we just have to wait for the three-month construction period to be over.
So now that he is back at school, Li Xiangnan feels relieved.
This semester, Ye Buping also started to get busy, as he would be a senior when school started.
Not only do I have to assume the responsibilities of a biology department counselor, but I also have to actively supplement my resume and prepare for future job assignments.
Despite being so busy, he still did not give up helping Li Xiangnan find materials for the laser scalpel, and was often busy and exhausted.
Li Xiangnan often asked Hu Yinglong to buy some braised dishes and snacks and bring a group of students to his office to see him, bringing some comfort to his busy life.
Before entering the school today, he bought a pair of Huili shoes in the store. When he came to the office, he saw Ye Buping writing materials among a pile of books, so he walked in.
"Lao Ye!"
"Xiangnan is here?" Ye Buping stopped writing, glanced at him, then lowered his head and said, "Sit down first. I'll talk to you after I finish writing!"
"Old Ye, just do your thing!" Li Xiangnan smiled and took out a pair of Warrior shoes from his bag and put them on the table. "I just passed by the store and bought you a pair of shoes. I'm leaving now!"
After saying that, he turned around and left!
Ye Buping was stunned for a moment, then he saw that there was indeed an extra pair of shoes on the table. He quickly grabbed them and ran out, saying anxiously, "Why did you buy shoes for me?! You kid..."
"Old Ye, some companies are coming to interview you graduates soon! Remember to dress nicely! Don't bring shame to our department!" Li Xiangnan smiled without stopping.
Ye Buping shrank his feet, and suddenly there was an embarrassment on his face.
But more of it is touching.
His pair of cloth shoes, which he wore in spring and winter, had a thick patch on the toe, with patches on top of patches. He had no idea how many stitches had gone into them.
This kid Li Xiangnan must have discovered it a long time ago.
When he thought about being assigned to a different place and away from these students, his eyes couldn't help but become red.
Li Xiangnan walked out of the department building and was about to ride his bike when a man suddenly jumped out and shouted, "Li Xiangnan, good, you are quite caring!"
He looked back and was a little surprised.
"Jian Jingzhe? Why are you here? You didn't go abroad?"
"It's a long story!" Jian Jingzhe took out a document from his bag with a smile on his face and handed it over, "Here!"
"what is this?"
"A letter from my father in Japan! And the Japanese translation of the ultrasound machine you asked for!"
"Has my son made any progress?" Li Xiangnan was delighted and couldn't help but whisper.
"What did you say?" Jian Jingzhe was stunned.
"Nothing! Let me see what your dad said!" Li Xiangnan hurriedly took it and opened the letter, but as he read it, his joyful brows suddenly frowned.
