Chapter 274 Lanshan Manor
?
Li Dong spent the Spring Festival in 2006 quite comfortably. Of course, it would be even better if he didn't have to sleep on the sofa all day.
Once the Spring Festival is over, those who should go out should go out, and those who should go to school should get ready to go to school.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Cao Feng and the others rushed back to Pingchuan ahead of schedule.
Li Dong planned to stay for a few more days, or simply wait for his parents to leave together.
But he is also a busy person now, and he can't arrange his time freely. On the afternoon of the sixth day, Li Dong drove back to Pingchuan alone.
It was almost five o'clock when we arrived at Wanyuan.
Li Dong took a shower, changed his clothes, and went downstairs to drive to a party.
The meeting place is not a restaurant, but Lanshan Manor.
There is no need for navigation, if you say you don't know about Lanshan Manor after staying in Pingchuan for so many years, it means that Li Dongbai has been in it for so many years.
Lanshan Manor, the top villa area in Pingchuan.
Nearby are Lanshan Park, Baicui Park, Wildlife Park, Baicui Lake, Lanshan Scenic Area, Jiangbei Museum...
This series of scenic spots makes Lanshan Manor a veritable scenic manor.
In addition to the beautiful environment, other supporting facilities near Lanshan Manor are also first-class.
There are Jiangbei Second People's Hospital, Pingchuan Lanshan Hospital, Jiangbei Maternity and Children's Hospital, and the well-known private middle school Lanshan Middle School in Pingchuan.
Whether it is medical care or education, the supporting facilities near Lanshan Manor are among the best in Jiangbei.
This series of advantages also contributed to the high housing price of Lanshan Manor.
The entire Lanshan Manor covers an area of 180,000 square meters, mainly townhouses, supplemented by single-family villas. Townhouses are at least 300 square meters, and single-family villas are at least 500 square meters.
And the housing price has reached the highest level in Jiangbei, with an average of 12,100 square meters for a single-family villa, and at least 6 million yuan for a casual villa.
In 2006, the housing price reached 12,100 flat, which is already on par with the top-tier domestic housing prices.
But Hirakawa really wants to count,
It's just a second- and third-tier city, and the price is unaffordable for most people.
Until Li Dong was reborn, the more than 200 villas in Lanshan Manor had not been completely sold out. Of course, the price of Lanshan Manor at that time was sky-high, not much cheaper than housing prices in first-tier cities.
However, according to Li Dong's understanding, the developer who invested in Lanshan Manor had already gone bankrupt.
Now Longhua Group should take over. Longhua Group is rich and powerful, and it is not in a hurry if the villa cannot be sold. This is the reason why the villa in Lanshan Manor can be kept for seven or eight years.
...
When Li Dong arrived at Lanshan Manor, it was already dark.
The security guard at the gate of the manor stopped Li Dong's car, and Li Dong reported the name of the inviter, and the security guard took the walkie-talkie to check for a while, and then opened the gate for Li Dong to drive in.
Because the sky was getting dark, Li Dong was not in the mood to watch the scenery inside the manor.
Driving past the townhouse in front, Li Dong entered the single-family villa area.
In the single-family villa area, there are large intervals between each villa, and the number is not too many, and the signs on the road are also very clear.
After a while, Li Dong's car stopped in front of the No. 16 villa courtyard.
Zhang Lanyu, who had already received the news, came out to greet Li Dong in person, and when Li Dong got off the car, Zhang Lanyu smiled like a flower and said, "Mr. Li is here, so beautiful!"
Li Dong laughed and said: "Pengpi Shenghui is not well used, thanks to Miss Zhang, otherwise I, a country bumpkin, may not be able to see such a good place."
Zhang Lanyu covered her mouth and smiled lightly, and led Li Dong to the villa with a few words of politeness.
Li Dong looked around unhurriedly, and saw many luxury cars parked inside and outside the courtyard.
With more than a dozen luxury cars parked together, his s350 seemed a bit inconspicuous.
Especially seeing that there are several supercars among them, which further sets off Li Dong's old-fashioned car.
Li Dong narrowed his eyes when he saw this, and tentatively said: "Miss Zhang, there are quite a lot of people at this party."
Zhang Lanyu said with a smile: "Today is Chen Rui's birthday. It's not an outsider, just a few acquaintances gathered together. They are all friends in the circle. If you don't let them come, you can't do it. But don't worry, Mr. Li, he's here today too." As a friend in the business world, I believe that I will always have a common language with Li."
Li Dong nodded slightly when he heard the words, and said nothing more.
Today is Chen Rui's birthday, so there is no need to invite Li Dong, but since Chen Rui invited, Li Dong has to come.
If you don't come, you don't give face. There is no big conflict between Li Dong and Chen Rui, so there is no need to offend him.
Of course, even if he came, Li Dong didn't plan to make any publicity.
Honestly be an audience, he doesn't need to worry about other things, Chen Rui's biggest purpose in looking for him is nothing more than engineering matters, no matter how successful the talk is, I believe Chen Rui will not do anything to him.
Follow Zhang Lanyu all the way into the villa.
Many people have come to the hall, most of them are young people, and there are not a few people with red hair and green hair.
Li Dong glanced and didn't pay much attention, and turned his gaze to a group of people gathered beside the hall.
There were not many people in this group, about five or six, and they were all older, some in suits and leather shoes, and some in plain clothes. Judging by their demeanor, they should be the business people Zhang Lanyu said.
Although Li Dong's Yuanfang Supermarket has a big business, he really doesn't know much about the business elites in Pingchuan.
Among the five or six people, Li Dong knew none of them.
Li Dong was looking at everyone, and everyone naturally saw Li Dong beside Zhang Lanyu.
There are not many people who know Li Dong, but Zhang Lanyu is considered a half-master today, so naturally everyone knows her.
Just now Zhang Lanyu went out to greet the distinguished guests in a serious manner, and everyone knew that the status of the people who came today was not low, but Zhang Lanyu hadn't greeted anyone in person before.
Now that Zhang Lanyu went to pick up people at the door, anyone with a heart would naturally notice.
But when they saw Li Dong so young, most people thought he was the second-generation son of some family. Only a few people recognized Li Dong and knew that the young man in front of them was the head of Yuanfang, who was in the limelight last year.
Chen Rui, who was chatting and laughing with a few young people, saw Li Dong enter the door, talked to the people around him, and walked over.
After a few steps away, Chen Rui opened his hands and said with a smile, "Mr. Li, I hope you are here!"
Li Dong couldn't stand his enthusiasm, so he quickly reached out to shake hands with him, but he didn't want Chen Rui to ignore him, and stepped forward to give Li Dong a hug.
Then he patted Li Dong on the back, Chen Rui smiled and said, "Mr. Li, Happy New Year!"
Li Dong moved his body unobtrusively, smiled lightly, and said, "It should be me wishing Mr. Chen a happy birthday."
After finishing speaking, he handed the gift box in his hand to Chen Rui, and said with a light smile, "A small gift is not a respect."
"Hahaha, Mr. Li is just being polite, it's just a meal, why waste it."
Chen Rui grinned, took the gift box and handed it to Zhang Lanyu who was beside him, and then clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention. When the hall became quiet, Chen Rui said loudly: "I'm afraid many people don't like the young man beside me." I know you, today I will introduce you, this is Mr. Li from Yuanfang Company!"
"Crack, clap!"
There was a burst of not-so-warm applause, followed by whispers.
Most people on the field don't know Li Dong, and some people don't even know the distance, so naturally they don't know much about Li Dong.
After hearing people around him introduce this guy who became a billionaire at the age of 20 last year, even with a net worth of more than one billion, it made everyone pay attention.
The billionaires in 2006 were not commonplace, but they were genuinely rich.
Especially since Li Dong is so young, he attracted everyone's attention.
Li Dong was not interested in being watched as a monkey by others, so he nodded to Chen Rui, smiled at everyone, and found a remote corner to sit down by himself.
Chen Rui rolled his eyes and said something to Zhang Lanyu in a low voice.
Zhang Lanyu nodded slightly, then walked to Li Dong and sat down, while Chen Rui went to receive other guests.
As soon as Zhang Lanyu sat down, she asked with a smile, "President Li, what's the matter? Are you not used to it?"
Li Dong shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's a little bit. I don't know everyone well. I'm a bit withdrawn. It's rare for me to be able to chat with people who aren't acquaintances."
Zhang Lanyu laughed again: "The first time is born and the second time is acquaintance, and acquaintances are also transformed by strangers. There are a few guests on the field today who are very interested in Mr. Li. Mr. Li, would you mind getting acquainted?"
Li Dong frowned slightly. Hearing Zhang Lanyu's tone, isn't he looking for a project today?
It feels like Zhang Lanyu's attitude seems to be a broker, who wants to find him through Zhang Lanyu?
Li Dong couldn't guess, and didn't bother to guess, he said directly: "Forget it, I came here today to celebrate Mr. Chen's birthday, so I won't overwhelm the host."
Zhang Lanyu smiled a bit reluctantly, this guy is really hard to serve!
As for what Li Dong said about his withdrawn personality and dislike of communicating with strangers, Zhang Lanyu didn't take it seriously.
If you are so lonely, what business do you do?
If you don't communicate with strangers, if you don't communicate with strangers, your company will go bankrupt long ago.
But today's invitation to Li Dong was not against him. Seeing Li Dong's resistance, Zhang Lanyu stopped talking about the topic just now, and replaced it with daily greetings.
Talk about the weather, talk about the economy, talk about officialdom.
About ten minutes later, all the guests invited by Chen Rui arrived.
Chen Rui in the middle of the field held a microphone and said loudly: "Everyone be quiet first, I am very honored and proud that everyone can come to my birthday party today."
"Those who are here today include my friends, my brothers and sisters, and successful people..."
Don't look at Chen Rui usually looks like an outsider, and has gray hair, and he is no worse than ordinary old fried dough sticks when he speaks politely.
After speaking for five or six minutes, Chen Rui did not repeat his words.
Li Dong glanced at Zhang Lanyu beside him, and couldn't help but ask a digression: "How old is Mr. Chen this year?"
"Twenty-eight!"
The corner of Li Dong's mouth twitched. He felt something was wrong just now, but he guessed it.
Twenty-eight!
Chen Rui is only twenty-eight, this guy looks so old, Li Dong always thought he was at least thirty-four or five-year-old.
Moreover, Zhang Qing is usually called Chen Rui Brother Chen, but Zhang Qing is older than Chen Rui.
Li Dong's expression was rich, Zhang Lanyu naturally saw it, smiled in a low voice and said, "Chen Rui actually has white hair and looks more mature. If he dyes his hair back to black, he will look much younger."
Li Dong smiled silently and continued to listen to Chen Rui's speech. (To be continued.)
