Chapter 63: Late Summer Vacation

After lunch, Section Chief Li called everyone to play mahjong. Twelve people were divided into three tables. Read М

Because Xu Dong was not familiar with the rules of playing cards in Yanjing, he could only play with three female colleagues. The money here was small, so he was happy to be relaxed.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the temperature finally dropped, and everyone couldn't wait to put on their swimsuits and rushed to the beach.

The tickets to Jinmen Beach are very cheap, only 20 yuan per ticket, which is very affordable. It may be related to the relocation in two months. The beach wants to make as much money as possible.

It is precisely because of the low ticket price that there are very many tourists in the beach. There are colorful swimsuits everywhere, and there is almost no place to step on the beach.

Xu Dong gave up the idea of ​​swimming in the sea and turned to the hot spring amusement palace next to him.

This project needs to be charged separately, and the price is not cheap, so the flow of people is not large.

Not only him, but also Section Chief Li and several other old comrades have the same idea, including Gao Yuemei who did not plan to go to the sea at the beginning.

"Xiao Xu, do you want to go take a whirlpool bath with us old guys? After the bath, we will find a master to give you a massage. I guarantee that you will feel comfortable all over when you wake up tomorrow morning." Section Chief Li invited with a smile.

Xu Dong nodded and said, "Okay!"

"Lao Gao, how about you? Do you want to join us?" A male colleague joked.

"You old rogue, I'm going to take a hot spring bath!" Gao Yuemei said and left.

"Okay, see you later."

When everyone returned to the hotel, it was already 8:30 in the evening. After three hours of relaxation, everyone was satisfied.

The only drawback was that the bathing water in the hot spring palace was seawater, so it could not be soaked for a long time.

"I'm starving, Section Chief, what are we going to eat tonight?"

Xiang Xin shouted. Swimming is very physically demanding, and her stomach has long been flat.

Gao Yuemei suggested, "Why don't we have hot pot? We can cook while eating hot pot, so we can't delay both."

"Well, this is a good idea, then let's have hot pot!" Section Chief Li made the final decision.

I borrowed an electric hot pot from the hotel, and the hot pot was ready in less than half an hour.

The sizzling big meat slices, tender blanched vegetables, sliced ​​sausages, and spicy soup base, it was really delicious.

Section Chief Li stood up and raised his glass and said, "Come on, everyone fill your glasses. This is the first dinner of our department this year, which is of great significance. Let's toast."

"Cheers!"

"Cheers..."

After drinking a glass of wine, everyone put down their chopsticks, and the food in the pot was instantly reduced by half. Gao Yuemei quickly added a lot of blanched vegetables to the pot.

On the dinner table, the most popular thing was the big meat slices.

Xu Dong was a little reserved, and he lost the opportunity to eat the second bite. Fortunately, there was no shortage of meat at home, otherwise he would be depressed.

After drinking a little wine, the atmosphere was up, and everyone couldn't help but talk about the various strange things in Tianjin.

"Section Chief, do you think this seawater factory needs to be so large?

If it weren't for Xiao Xu's solemn guarantee, I wouldn't believe that such a large area is just a factory."

Xu Dong clinked glasses with Section Chief Li, and then added: "Uncle Li, I have inquired clearly. This is only the first phase of the project, and the total investment has exceeded 200 billion."

"This is the first time I know about this. After all, Tianjin is still a little far away from Yanjing. It's normal that you haven't heard of it if you are not in the circle." Section Chief Li sighed.

"Section Chief, Sister Gao said that the drought will not end in a short time and may last for several years. Do you think this is reliable?" Xiang Xin asked loudly.

Section Chief Li pondered for a while and nodded:

"Old Gao and I both came from that era. We would rather believe it than not believe it. If you have the conditions, you should make more preparations in advance!"

"Uncle Li is right. It will definitely not hurt if we make more preparations." Xu Dong echoed.

After all, they are all colleagues, and he doesn't want to see everyone live a hard life in the future.

"But now there is a limit on food purchases, what can we do?" Xiang Xin said in distress.

"I went to Panjiayuan the day before yesterday, and I could still buy some food there, but the quantity was not much and the price was expensive." Xu Dong replied.

"How much can I buy?"

"If you make a few more trips, you can still get hundreds of kilograms."

"Isn't this too troublesome?"

Section Chief Li waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet: "If you want to buy food, I have a channel here. I dare not say how much, but everyone should be able to get 500 to 600 kilograms of rice."

"Old Li, what's the price?" Gao Yuemei asked hurriedly. The sky-high price of milk powder really made her feel a shadow in her heart.

"Don't worry, it's definitely much cheaper than the price on the black market." Section Chief Li said confidently.

"Chief, price is not a problem. Can we buy more? Even 1,000 kilograms is fine?"

Chief Li shook his head: "No, there is also a quantity limit over there. With so many of us, 500 to 600 kilograms per person is already the limit."

"Okay, Chief, how much is it? I'll transfer the money to you now." This guy is impatient.

"It's not urgent. It won't be too late to transfer the money after the rice arrives."

"Thank you, Chief!"

"Thank you, Uncle Li!"

Everyone thanked him, and Xu Dong didn't mind stocking up more rice.

One night passed.

The next day, taking advantage of the lack of people in the morning, Xu Dong and others finally went into the sea. The sea water temperature was just over nine o'clock. They played for more than two hours before returning home happily.

At noon, after a brief lunch, everyone was ready to return to Yanjing.

Overall, this team building was very successful. It not only deepened friendship, but was also a rare relaxing trip.

Back in downtown Yanjing, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. Xu Dong drove Xiang Xin and others to the door of his house one by one, and finally it was his turn.

"Honey, I'm back."

Yang Lina hugged Xiaobao and walked out of the kitchen:

"Why are you back so early? I thought it was dinner time?"

Xu Dong took Xiaobao from his wife's arms, then kissed the little guy's face and replied:

"There's demolition going on there, and there aren't many places to play. Everyone will come back after lunch."

"Are you hungry? Mom just braised the pork head today, would you like some?" Yang Lina asked with concern.

"Come on, come on, I'm really hungry now that you're talking about it."

Yang Lina quickly filled a bowl full of braised pork and placed it on the dining table: "Eat it while it's hot!"

Xu Dong took the chopsticks and started eating. The braised pork became more and more delicious.

"Eat...eat meat..."

Xiaobao smelled the aroma of meat and kept reaching for the bowl. Xu Dong quickly stuffed him with a small piece of meat as big as a fingernail.

"Don't feed him too much, otherwise he will have diarrhea." Yang Lina reminded him hurriedly.

"knew!"

Time soon came to August, and the Coco sisters were finally going on summer vacation.

At the beginning of the year, due to major power outages, major colleges and universities postponed the start of school.

However, the students' learning tasks have not been reduced. In order to catch up with the progress, the school has no choice but to take up a month of summer vacation time.
