The mud clearing work went very smoothly, and several masters found time to dig eels out of the dug mud after work.
Zeng Yiming was worried about their safety and stopped them in time. Now the construction schedule is the most important thing, and he still needs to distinguish the priorities.
At around 5 p.m., Zeng Yiming wore rain boots and entered the cleaned work site. He needed to use hydrated lime powder to draw out the outer edge of the foundation trench. This work is called laying out the line.
After laying out the line, the excavator will clean the loose sand and gravel layer on the surface according to this line to ensure that the foundation of the retaining wall is firmly fixed in the mudstone the next time there is a flood.
According to the construction specifications, the machine can only clean the upper 30cm of the mudstone, and the lower part needs to be cleaned manually. The purpose of this is to prevent mechanical cleaning from disturbing the foundation and reducing the stability of the foundation.
When Zeng Yiming communicated with Party A and the design unit, he put forward his own point of view. The geological survey report mentioned this: The mudstone layer is 8-10 meters thick and is widely distributed. The entire county of the small town is on this layer of mudstone. Therefore, using the excavator directly is not enough to disturb it.
His purpose was very simple, that is, he wanted to violate the construction specifications and directly use the excavator to dig into the mudstone layer, thereby reducing the manual labor intensity and shortening the construction period.
It was already 6:30 in the afternoon when the machine finished digging. Zeng Yiming went ashore for a brief cleaning, and then led by Scar to their destination for dinner.
This is a very quiet farmhouse, close to the river, where you can enjoy the coolness brought by the flow of the river while tasting delicious food.
Scar took him directly to a pavilion. At this time, Director Li and Gong He were already seated, talking and waiting for their group. The food had not been served yet, and the snacks on the table only had a plate of melon seeds and two cups. Tea.
The tea in this small town is mostly nectar from Mengding Mountain in Yucheng, which has been artificially roasted. There are also Bitan Piaoxue or bamboo leaf green tea from Emei Mountain, but most of them are green tea and scented tea.
Bitan Piaoxue is actually a kind of scented tea made by frying green tea with scented tea. It is said to taste very good. However, Zeng Yiming is not used to drinking it. It may be due to his age. What he has always liked and admired is handmade nectar.
No matter how thick-skinned Zeng Yiming was, he was a little embarrassed. He walked over quickly, clasped his fists apologetically and said, "Both leaders have been waiting for a long time! I'm really sorry. I'll punish myself with three drinks in a minute!"
Director Li waved his hand quickly and said nonchalantly: "You are new to this industry and you don't know much about the ways inside. As long as you can complete the task on time, let alone wait for you for a while, I can stay with you for three days and three nights." "
After Director Li finished speaking, he saw everyone's expressions were weird, so he quickly changed his words: "I can just study with you in school for three days!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was harmonious, Zeng Yiming hurriedly gave the fat man a wink, and the latter ran to the front desk to order the food. drink wine? It is impossible for the three people of Zeng Yiming to drink today even if they are beaten to death. They now have a supreme weapon to stop drinking - they are the flowers of the motherland and are under the age of 18.
Zeng Yiming calmed down and said solemnly: "Boss, before we eat, let me report something. The first thing I will do at work tomorrow morning is to inspect the grooves, so I would like to ask Party A to come forward and invite relevant units to participate."
Director Li looked at Lao He, who nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will invite them here tomorrow. As soon as I get to work, I will go to the intersection they must pass when going out and snatch them for you."
This is not Lao He's boasting, it's just that they are too familiar with each other. They live upstairs and downstairs and often drink together. He said that the only way out was actually a cover, and he wanted to directly block the door. There is another one. This project is indeed the key project of their company this month. People’s eyes are staring at it every day. The seven days are clearly written on the public notice board. Three days have passed.
After we finished talking about the business, the dishes started to arrive one after another. First there were three cold dishes, venison in sauce, sliced pork ear in red oil, cold preserved egg in red oil. The hot dishes included spicy black fish fillet, Panlong eel, spicy yellow spicy diced meat, and a Spicy loach.
The portions of the hot dishes were quite generous, and a full table was set. Dao Ba, as the representative of Party B, accompanied the two leaders of Party A to drink. The wine was made from sweet-scented osmanthus soaked in local wine.
It is said to be local wine, but it is actually made from sorghum and rice. After being sealed in a clay pot, it is placed in a cave with a constant temperature of about 20°C for more than 3 years. The alcohol content is stable at about 45°.
Zeng Yiming and his three friends don't drink wine. They drink yogurt. He asked the waiter to prepare a box of yogurt. He saw that several people were a little confused when they saw the yogurt, so he explained with a smile: "Yoghurt is a hangover cure. Drink some yogurt before drinking, which can protect the stomach."
Lao He narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile: "Boy, you have a lot of things. I'm very curious. Why do you think you, a 16-year-old child, know so much?"
Zeng Yiming pulled out his own defense again: "When I was very young, my grandfather had to go out to collect scraps. I was bored at home by myself, so I went to read the old books he had collected. As time went by, I was surprised to find that my knowledge accumulation had reached a new level.”
A few people were a little silent. It is true that there is a golden house in the book of love.
Chengzi recalled the childhood scene with a serious face: "I remember when Fatty and I often went to see him when we were young, he was holding a thick book and chewing on it. At that time, we were still wondering, such a thick book, What kind of wonderful little book is it? But when I picked it up and looked at it, I found it was full of obscure and profound words."
Zeng Yiming stood up and poured each of them a glass of wine before sitting back down in his seat.
Director Li tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table and asked casually, seemingly casually: "We are about to enter the new millennium. Can you tell us what changes will occur in the engineering field in the next ten years?"
Zeng Yiming was startled by his sudden question. He quickly clasped his hands in front of him and said with lingering fear: "Leader, there should be laws and regulations issued at the relevant level about these things. How can I, a student, see through these?"
"Maybe!" Seeing his expression, Director Li could only stop continuing the topic.
The fat man smiled and said: "Leaders, eat vegetables. These fish should be eaten while they are hot. They will not be fresh when they are cold."
Scar quickly picked up the wine glass, stood up and said a toast: "Thank you two leaders for the honor. Today, on behalf of these little brothers, I would like to toast you two."
The three people quickly put down their chopsticks, raised their yogurts, and made a toast in agreement.
The meal ended while everyone was chatting and laughing. Most of the dishes were on the CD, so there was no waste. The main reason was that the three of them were growing up and were not afraid of not eating enough if they had too much food.
Because they had to go to a karaoke test tomorrow, Zeng Yiming and the other three had to go back and prepare the documents for tomorrow's test, so they had no choice but to let Scar go to karaoke on his behalf.
