Tao Guangming covered his face: "Li Wenjun, sometimes I wonder if there is something wrong with your brain. The road here is half-finished, and what kind of bridge are you going to build... I beg you, please fix this first
Will the road be properly repaired? It’s really driving us people to death.”
Li Wenjun raised his hand: "Stop, stop. I am building these two viaducts just to complete the road."
Tao Guangming looked up at him blankly for a while and then said: "You mean you want to build a bridge across the mountain? It's like crossing a river."
Tao Guangming stood up suddenly, his face wrinkled: "Li Wenjun, are you out of your mind or do you have no common sense? Do you think the cost and technical difficulty of building a bridge that high will be lower than building a tunnel?"
Li Wenjun said with a smile: "It depends on how the bridge is repaired. If it is repaired well, it will be much cheaper than drilling holes."
There is a saying in the civil engineering industry that "gold bridges, silver roads, and copper houses". It is difficult to estimate the cost of a bridge, but he has experience, and someone has been in the same position before to help him verify the actual operation. What is he afraid of?
Tao Guangming saw that he was so sure, and he had obviously compared it, so he sat down again and asked, "When will we start?"
Li Wenjun said: "The sooner, the better. If it takes too long, the building materials will be damaged."
Tao Guangming didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Now you are starting to get anxious. What did you do this month when we were so anxious that we were jumping up and down?!"
Li Wenjun said: "Thank you. Although you don't know what I want to do, you still firmly support me in front of others. I will remember this friendship."
Tao Guangming sneered: "You don't have to say that. If I don't support you, wouldn't it be to dismantle myself? The two of us have long been grasshoppers tied to the same rope, sitting in the same boat.
"

Li Wenjun asked Zheng Yuehua to help him make four or five copies of the drawings. Then the provincial road and bridge construction team started construction from the mountain side close to the provincial capital, and the municipal road and bridge construction team started construction from the mountain side near Zhu City. At the same time, they began to build elevated roads leading to the mountain.
Tan Dailei is responsible for keeping an eye on the viaduct near the provincial capital.
Li Wenjun himself stared at the elevated highway in Zhuzhou City, and occasionally went to the provincial capital to take a look.
Only now did the Kong family understand what Li Wenjun wanted to do, and then they tried their best to get the drawings from the provincial road and bridge construction team to look at, and asked someone to make a budget.
At that time, it was estimated that the tunnel was more than two kilometers long, and now the viaducts on both sides add up to less than two kilometers. It is really much cheaper than drilling a tunnel. And because the mountain below is made of a single block of granite, building a road on the top of the mountain will cost more than the foundation.
Saved a lot.
In addition, this mountain is a barren mountain with only grass and gravel. It is easy to use an excavator to dig a road out.
The Kong family held a family meeting overnight to discuss the matter.
Kong Liren was so angry that he slammed the table: "Are we going to let this guy Li Wenjun take advantage of us?"
Kong Yuzhen shook his head: "His agreement is very rigorous and there are no loopholes. It is impossible to break through the agreement."
Another person said: "Haha, there is no breakthrough in the agreement, so we have to find another breakthrough. After all, we want him to finish this project and never be able to do other projects."
Kong Yuzhen said: "I do have a way, but it's a bit damaging and maybe a few people will die."
Upon hearing this, Kong Liren immediately said: "As long as the goal can be achieved, these are not problems. Those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters."
Kong Yuzhen sighed softly and said: "One general's success can lead to thousands of bones drying up. I also know that sacrifice is always inevitable."
-----
The elevated road near Zhu City was repaired first. Li Wenjun hired two excavators and drove up the mountain to dig a large trapezoidal trench. While digging, he made slope protection on both sides. After digging out a section, he built a road in the middle.
If we continue at this pace, all the projects will be completed beautifully in less than half a month.
After the Zhushi side was repaired, Li Wenjun often went to the other side of the mountain to keep an eye on it.
Tan Dailei hesitated to talk that day.
Li Wenjun glanced at him and said, "Ah, by the way. It's time to pay wages again. Let's go to the car to hand over the payment."
Tan Dailei understood and followed Li Wenjun into the car: "Yes."
Li Wenjun closed the door and asked: "What's wrong?"
Tan Dailei said: "I found someone stealing steel bars."
Li Wenjun frowned and pondered for a long time: "How did you find out?"
Tan Dailei said: "I have always been constructing according to the drawings. Every time the steel bars are tied, I will roughly count them according to your instructions for fear of making mistakes. I was bored that day, so I looked at the drawings carefully and found that the pillars were getting longer and longer.
The taller and thicker it is, the more longitudinal steel bars should be there. But they only used the same number of steel bars as before, and just increased the spacing between the steel bars. In other words, they cut corners. But they found that after I counted the steel bars, I
I started construction in strict accordance with the drawings, and there was no shortage. Moreover, I took inventory of the remaining steel bars, and the amount was consistent with the quantity on the drawing. In other words, someone hid the saved steel bars, and maybe they were already gone.
Transported away."
When Li Wenjun heard this, he pondered for a moment and asked: "How many pillars do you think they have like this?"
"I checked it according to the drawing. There are only four or five pillars, all in the middle." Tan Dailei took out the drawing, "I was afraid that I would remember it wrong, so I immediately marked each pillar on the drawing with its actual use.
The number of steel bars.”
Li Wenjun looked at the drawings carefully, put them away, and handed the copy he carried to Tan Dailei: "Don't tell anyone, you found out about this. Don't even tell Tao Guangming."
Tan Dailei frowned: "Is this good? What if something happens in the future?" Such a high viaduct is no joke. If the piers are not strong enough, they will collapse sooner or later.
Li Wenjun smiled: "Don't worry. I know it well."
Tan Dailei pursed his lips: "Okay."
Anyway, the money belongs to Li Wenjun, and if something goes wrong, the first person responsible is also Li Wenjun. Li Wenjun said there was no problem, what else could he say?
------
The viaduct near the provincial capital has also been repaired.
Li Wenjun invited experts to inspect the entire road.
Experts were full of praise for the quality of the construction, which was even higher than the previous four sections. After all, it was a project completed by a professional road and bridge construction team.
The provincial road and bridge construction team and the city road and bridge construction team both submitted two formal completion drawings in accordance with Li Wenjun's requirements.
Li Wenjun carefully looked at the completion drawings of the provincial road and bridge construction team. They were basically the same as the construction drawings. The official seal of the construction team and the signature of the responsible person were also complete, and the drawings were also very standardized.
Li Wenjun asked the captain of the provincial road and bridge construction team: "Is this as-built drawing strictly based on the actual construction conditions?"
The captain replied: "Yes, it is drawn strictly according to the actual situation. It has the seal of the construction team and my signature on it. What else do you have to worry about?"
Li Wenjun said to Tao Guangming and several experts: "You are all witnesses. The captain of the construction team assured me that this completion drawing is strictly based on the completion of the actual project."
