win or lose game

Shao Yigui was somewhat surprised that things would go so smoothly.

As a partner with ulterior motives, Shao Yigui knows all the capital flows of Tang Linwen. Originally, for the sake of safety, he planned to drag Tang Linwen down during the development of the Xilin project, so that the latter had to throw all the funds into the project. middle.But he didn't want to, Tang Linwen didn't know what he was thinking about, he was stunned to come up with a set of "soldiers and horses before moving food and grass", and before Shao Yigui used any means, Tang Linwen made himself "zero cash".Zero inventory is a good management model, but "zero cash" is obviously another matter.

When something seems to be going well, it must have missed something.Shao Yigui thought that what Murphy said made sense.He always felt that things should not be so perfect, but Tang Hexiao and Liu Yan couldn't wait any longer.This pair of uncles and nephews were eager for revenge and eager for quick success. No one paid any attention to Shao Yigui's unfounded "intuition", and they advocated immediate action.In the end, Shao Yigui made a compromise.

Fortunately, after visiting the landmark in Xilin, Tang Linwen decided to go on a field trip and get in touch with important potential local suppliers by the way.Not only did Shao Yigui hear the news, but as a project partner, he was also invited to this trip.This is a great opportunity for Shao Yigui and the others.

In today's technological society, with the convenience of communication, people are more dependent, but their own adaptability and preparedness are getting weaker and weaker.Everyone felt that everything was ready with a mobile phone when they went out, which gave Shao Yigui a good starting point.

Although the itinerary Tang Linwen arranged was for the weekend, they were still in Xilin for investigation when the stock market opened on Monday.Moreover, as long as Shao Yigui has the heart, he can follow Tang Linwen, who does not have an assistant at all, at any time.Shao Yigui specially bought a miniature signal jammer from the black market. At that time, if Tang Linwen could not receive the call smoothly, as long as he could delay it for a few hours, his chances of winning would be greatly increased.

When Shao Yigui and Tang Linwen went on the road to Xilin, his calculations were like an allegro.

——He didn't expect the result of things to be different from what he thought.

After arriving in Xilin, Tang Linwen first inspected the abandoned open-pit mine.

This once high-yield mine mainly uses tape transportation, there is no road at all, and the only railroad track has long been abandoned and blocked. Now the only remaining access method is a simple elevator.As bold as Shao Yigui, when he saw the elevator, he couldn't help but flinch.

At this time, some geologists had already started surveying and mapping work. The big boss came in person, and the person in charge entertained him attentively. He suggested that Tang Lin ask them if they want to go down to the mine, they can wait for other staff members to take the elevator down together. "There are many people and heavy weights, so I'm not afraid that the box will shake too much when the wind is strong." He explained that, but there was a vague positive guess in his expression as he spoke. He probably thought that Tang Lin asked them to retreat and not go down in person.

For this reason, Shao Yigui said as if nothing had happened: "Don't be so troublesome, just shake it, and sit on the swing."

This time it was the person in charge's turn to look bad.He obviously doesn't like to sit on a swing.

However, before the person in charge answered, Tang Linwen took the lead and said, "We're just looking around casually. Manager Li, you don't have to follow. Mr. Shao and I can go down by ourselves."

The person in charge obviously liked this proposal very much, and he said without much hesitation: "The people from the exploration team are down below. I'll contact them and ask them to meet Mr. Tang and Mr. Shao down there."

While the two were talking, Shao Yigui couldn't help but sneak a glance at Tang Lin.Tang Linwen seemed to be accustomed to giving orders, and said "you don't have to follow" in a completely bossy tone, which made it impossible for people to think that he might say that out of kindness to the timid person in charge.

... Shao Yigui had thought of it, but he was not sure at all.

After the person in charge made arrangements, Shao Yigui and Tang Linwen walked into the elevator together.

The whole process of taking the elevator was extremely slow, which was probably the longest 300 meters in Shao Yigui's life.In order to divert his attention, he had to find something to say.However, before he could speak, Tang Linwen had already started the topic. "How is He Xiao recently?"

Tang Hexiao never came home. The older brother seemed to have accepted the fact that the former was with Shao Yigui. This was the first time he asked Shao Yigui about his younger brother in recent days.

Naturally, Shao Yigui couldn't tell the truth, instead of avoiding the important things and taking the light of the light, he would just say nonsense: "He Xiao actually misses home very much."

"Do you know what he likes to eat the most?" Tang Lin asked without knowing what he was thinking, and this question popped up out of the blue.

Shao Yigui was stumped.He didn't know the answer to this test question, which made the always victorious person a little embarrassed.In fact, what he has to do now is not to win Tang Hexiao's brother's consent, but he is still unwilling to admit that he doesn't care much about Tang Hexiao.

Tang Lin asked clearly that Shao Yigui would not be able to answer, so he didn't seem to care much about it, and just wrote lightly: "You don't know anything about He Xiao."

"What about you? How much do you know?"

Shao Yigui didn't want to scare the snake away, and didn't want to make any unnecessary actions that would make Tang Lin suspicious at the critical moment. However, he couldn't accept such a provocation.

Tang Lin asked that Shao Yigui knew nothing, but how much could he know?In recent days, Tang Hexiao, who had difficulty letting go of his resentment towards Tang Linwen, couldn't help but confide a lot to Shao Yigui.Out of humanitarianism, Shao Yigui listened quite seriously, and Tang Hexiao repeated what he said over and over again, which made Shao Yigui unavoidably familiar with the way the brothers get along.

For a long time, what Tang Linwen gave Tang Hexiao was the neglect and neglect he got from his parents. Even if there was a rare relationship, what Tang Hexiao felt was only Tang Linwen's strength and arrogance.In Tang Hexiao’s memory, the only time Tang Linwen, who had been busy raising him, took time to accompany him was when he was about to graduate from high school and took him to visit the university—but that was still a purposeful action, Tang Linwen was just to let Tang Hexiao decide for himself That's why Tang Hexiao was brought there.He never really gave Tang He Xiao some meaningless, pure and happy brotherhood.

In fact, Shao Yigui can also understand that the relationship between Tang Linwen and Tang Hexiao is complicated, and the attitude of this so-called "brother" towards his "younger brother" cannot be as simple as that of ordinary brothers.But no matter what, Tang Linwen is not a good brother.

These days, Tang Hexiao tried hard to blame Tang Linwen, but he always called Tang Linwen "big brother". In his heart, no matter how much he hated Tang Linwen, the person he hated was his big brother.But what about Tang Lin's question?Does he regard Tang He Xiao as his younger brother?Or is it a tool that can be manipulated by oneself?

Shao Yigui couldn't help but complain for Tang Hexiao.

Faced with Shao Yigui's vague hostility, Tang Linwen ignored it completely.When the elevator reached the ground, Tang Linwen took the lead to open the iron bars and get off the car.

There were already staff members "welcoming the inspection" by the elevator, and Tang Linwen probably only intended to look around by himself. He also sent the staff responsible for guiding the two of them, and walked forward aimlessly.

Shao Yigui followed as if nothing had happened. "The terrain here is quite dangerous, Mr. Tang, you'd better be careful." I don't know if this sentence was said in time or not, but before the words fell, Tang Linwen almost tripped over a potholed stone.Shao Yigui grabbed the opponent in time. "Look at your feet, Mr. Tang."

Tang Linwen, who had regained his footing, quickly withdrew his arm held by Shao Yigui, thanked him coldly and without sincerity, and approached the slope next to him.

Tang Linwen has always been like this, with a high self-esteem and unscrupulous eyes. It's not that Shao Yigui has never accepted the other party's cold treatment, but for some reason, this time Shao Yigui always feels that the other party is deliberately ignoring him.He is not a temperless person either, "Speaking of which, Mr. Tang, are you sure you can't look down at your feet?" He mocked inwardly in a falsely joking tone.Anyway, he had already pissed off the other party just now, and everything will go smoothly if a precedent is set.

Tang Linwen ignored Shao Yigui's attitude again.His attention was now drawn to a splash of color at the end of the slope.

There was a particularly rugged and steep slope in front of him. Tang Lin, who was wearing an expensive suit, climbed up with his hands and feet.Shao Yigui didn't know what evil the other party had fallen into, so he followed him up the slope out of curiosity.They saw a bunch of small flowers at the top of the slope.A little flower that doesn't look very pretty.

Of course, it doesn't matter whether you look good or not, Shao Yigui sighed sincerely: "I never thought that flowers can grow in the cracks of rocks."

"Flowers often grow in the crevices of rocks." Tang Lin asked, contrary to his usual indifferent attitude that made people feel superior, his eyes had an almost gentle light, staring at those small flowers, he explained: "This is unigrass. It usually grows on cliffs at relatively high altitudes."

Shao Yigui immediately realized: "The altitude here is not high."

"Yes, but even so, it can still bloom, which is at least better than roses and peonies."

"You don't understand this. Only children who can act like a baby can eat sweets. Because they are delicate, roses and peonies are carefully cared for and are sought after by others." Shao Yigui blurted out instinctively.He didn't mean to raise an argument, but it was rare for Tang Linwen to speak so humanely, which somehow aroused Shao Yigui's interest in talking, and he usually made all kinds of fallacies when chatting with people.

Tang Linwen is absolutely not allowed to question his decisions and requirements in the normal mode of superiors, but now it is easy to talk casually and nod to echo Shao Yigui's words: "I always think that maybe pet cats are the smartest things on earth. Creatures that quietly ruled the earth by making humans their servants."

Shao Yigui had never thought about it that way, and when asked by Tang Lin, he actually felt that it made sense.He looked at Tang Lin strangely and asked, and sighed unexpectedly for the new discovery: "So you are usually thinking about this kind of thing when you have nothing to do?"

Tang Linwen glanced back at Shao Yigui casually: "Then what are you thinking about when you are free?"

When Shao Yigui was free, he was either at the bar or with people in the hotel room, which was really not up to the table to answer, at this moment he smiled nonchalantly, and said casually: "I usually think about keeping pets, whether to keep a cat or a dog. "

Tang Linwen's gaze finally moved away from the unigrass, and the two began to descend.

As the saying goes, if you go uphill and go downhill, you need a fire ladder.Shao Yigui can guarantee that this is not due to his poor motor nerves, it can be said that this is force majeure, he underestimated his weight, and the rock that seemed to be able to stand on it was loose.When Shao Yigui realized the danger, his whole body lost his balance, and he was about to fall from the side of the slope.This is not a deadly height, but the pits on the ground are like traps and sharp stones are deadly. Just when Shao Yigui thought he was doomed, Tang Linwen suddenly clenched his wrist tightly.

No one could stand on the slope. In order to get a stable support, Tang Linwen had to grab the sharp-edged stone with his other hand. Shao Yigui fell very fast. In order to hold him, not only Tang Linwen was pulled off the slope with most of his body , When Shao Yigui was finally pulled back, Tang Linwen's right hand was cut by a stone, and it was dripping with blood.

Shao Yigui recovered his composure, and before he could thank him, he first checked Tang Linwen's injured hand.

"Your injury?"

Tang Lin asked indifferently and replied, "It's just a superficial injury." As he said so, blood continued to flow from his palm.This made it impossible for Shao Yigui to take Tang Linwen's words seriously.Due to the special circumstances, the rules of etiquette were omitted, and he directly took Tang Linwen's hand to check the wound.

As Tang Linwen said, most of the wounds on his palms were bruises, which looked horrible but were actually not serious. However, there was a deep cut in the middle of the palm.At this moment, the bleeding is not only deep, but also runs through the entire palm of this wound.

Shao Yigui didn't know any first aid measures. Common sense let him know that he should use something to press the wound to stop the bleeding first. However, in the TV series, tearing a piece of cloth from his body to bandage the wound is not feasible in reality. For the first time, he regretted his clothes People with too good quality could only take off their jackets, randomly pulled a sleeve and wrapped it around twice, and pressed it on Tang Linwen's hand.

Most of the clothes just hang down like a tail.

Shao Yigui himself couldn't stand it, but he could only pretend that it wasn't so ugly. While pressing Tang Lin tightly to ask about the wound, he said, "I'll send you to the hospital right now."

...but he couldn't.

Before Shao Yigui and Tang Linwen reached the elevator, they found many people surrounded there.Someone noticed Tang Linwen's injury and ran over to check on it. By the way, he told the two that the lift had broken down and was being investigated.

"What does this mean? Some people are in a hurry to go to the hospital right now. Can the elevator be used?" If it wasn't for saving himself, Tang Lin asked, and he wouldn't have been injured. At this moment, it can be said that Shao Yigui was more anxious to go than the injured himself. Hospital.

Faced with Shao Yigui's questioning tone, the staff could only explain embarrassingly: "Don't say that the elevator can't move now, even if it can move, the problem cannot be used rashly until the problem is clearly investigated."

This is not the time to pursue responsibility, but Shao Yigui couldn't help but want to blame him, but before that, Tang Lin asked calmly, "When will it be better?"

Shao Yigui unconsciously noticed that Tang Linwen's interruption might be helping the staff, but compared to Shao Yigui's angry questioning, it was his calm and calm tone that made the staff feel more stressed.The staff who were able to calmly face Shao Yigui before showed a trace of uneasy apology, and became extremely unconfident in their own words. "Mr. Tang, we are already speeding up the investigation and maintenance... We have a part-time doctor here, otherwise, let me ask him to help you treat temporarily?"

Before the words were finished, someone had already rushed over with a first-aid kit.The part-time doctor here seems to be very responsible. Hearing that someone was injured, he arrived at the scene immediately.Of course, Shao Yigui couldn't rule out the possibility that the person who caused the accident happened to be the big boss who caused it to happen so quickly.

"Mr. Tang, let me check the wound for you first?" The doctor seemed to dislike Shao Yigui's "clothes bandaging method". Perhaps this first aid measure was not appropriate, but he naturally would not comment on the behavior of the two bosses , At this time, silence is golden, and I started working directly.

Shao Yigui didn't feel dizzy, nor was he the kind of fragile soul who couldn't see bloody scenes, but he didn't dare to look at Tang Linwen's palm injury, and only focused on the doctor's expression. "Is Mr. Tang's injury serious? Did you hurt your nerves?" Shao Yigui asked worriedly with the doctor's frowning and serious expression.

The doctor shook his head and replied, "There should be no nerve injury." He hesitated for a moment, and added, "I'm worried that the wound may be infected."

Anyone who has watched TV dramas knows this kind of thing, Shao Yigui didn't take it seriously and said, "Isn't it just a shot of antibiotics?"

The doctor's expression became more serious.

Shao Yigui, who has observation and logical reasoning skills, frowned: "You don't have antibiotics?"

The doctor hurriedly found a step for himself: "We can go to the hospital for an injection after the elevator is repaired."

Shao Yigui felt that things would not go so smoothly, "I thought I could take the elevator directly to the hospital."

"I think the elevator will be repaired soon." Whether he believed it or not, the doctor could only comfort him in this way.

Within hours, the doctor's words were declared dead wrong.

After receiving treatment, Tang Linwen was arranged to rest in a tent, waiting for the news that the elevator was repaired.Shao Yigui has been supervising from the side, watching the elevator maintenance work.He thought it would take a few hours at most to repair a machine, but in the end, the staff member who received him before wiped his sweat and explained to Shao Yigui: "Mr. Shao, the situation of the equipment is a bit complicated. It is estimated that there may be no way to repair it today."

Shao Yigui waited for hours, not for such a result. "What if we can't fix the lift? We climb up by ourselves?"

The other party bit the bullet and said: "Mr. Shao, today I can only wrong you and Mr. Tang. You and Mr. Tang are staying here for one night."

Due to the trouble of getting in and out, in order to save time for the convenience of work, a temporary living place was built at the bottom of the pit, and the supplies were relatively abundant.Of course, for Shao Yigui, who is well-clothed and well-fed, this is still not a human life.It was hard for Shao Yigui to imagine spending the night in such a harsh environment.

"It's really not possible, why not arrange a helicopter?" Shao Yigui said.

His suggestion left the staff dumbfounded.The person who made such a proposal noticed the other person's expression, and he also knew that he was making a big fuss over a molehill.

"Mr. Shao, even if we arrange it now, we won't be able to arrange it for a while...Look..."

Really let Shao Yigui look at it, he can only see the necessity of arranging the helicopter, but he is usually reasonable, seeing the other party in a difficult situation, the person who was just trying to make things difficult because he was dissatisfied with the situation finally nodded. "Then trouble you to arrange accommodation for the night."

"No problem, Mr. Shao!" The staff who got the consent nodded quickly, then hesitated for a moment, and tentatively asked, "Mr. Tang, can I trouble Mr. Shao to talk about it?"

It could be seen that the staff member was quite afraid of Tang Lin's questioning, since the two of them had only been in contact for a few minutes.Shao Yigui felt a little funny in his heart, he nodded and agreed to the other party's request, and thought to himself: Tang Lin is not aggressive when asking, where does this scary feeling come from?

Of course, people who still feel the need to be popular and good bosses don’t envy the aura of other big bosses. After thinking about it randomly, their thoughts turned to serious things——

The doctor told Tang Linwen about the possibility of wound infection, and Shao Yigui only hoped that the reality would be more optimistic than the doctor's worries.
