Chapter 904: Covering One's Ears and Stealing the Bell
Hangzhou in March still has a hint of winter chill. Standing on the construction site of the urban complex, Yang Dongxu couldn't help but feel a little silent as he looked at the river in front of him.
"What are you thinking about?" Chen Xin came to him.
"Think again if I didn't have everything I have now, would I still be able to stand here, know you, and know other people." Yang Dongxu turned to look at Chen Xin.
"What happened?" Chen Xin came over and grabbed his hand.
"No, it's just a little emotional." Yang Dongxu smiled.
It was indeed a bit emotional, because right across from this construction site was the place where he worked. Although it didn’t last long, only a few months.
But now I look down at the opposite side and think of the harsh boss lady and the boss with bronchitis. And the boss's daughter, who is very good-looking and speaks with a Taiwanese accent, can't help but look a little dazed.
But it was just a sigh of relief. He had no intention of reminiscing about his poor life in his previous life and then reminiscing about the bitterness and sweetness.
The two people who inspected the completion site walked down. Wang Qing accompanied them and talked about the construction period of some projects and the estimated completion time. Walking out of the construction site, an Audi drove towards me.
Li Li and the woman she had met once before got out of the car. He Min looked at Yang Dongxu with interest. His eyes paused on Chen Xin for a moment, and then he looked at Li Li beside him with the corner of his eye. There was some amusement in his eyes, but he didn't show it.
With a woman's intuition, she knew that the woman standing next to Mr. Yang was not a simple working relationship.
Although Li Li did not tell her about the previous affairs between Li Li and Yang Dongxu, although there were some rumors, there seemed to be no real evidence.
But before Li Li lost her backer and was almost eaten to the bone, she begged her husband. But her husband, who always obeyed her words, warned her not to get involved in this matter.
And not long after, those who wanted to eat Li Li alive all disappeared, and no one was left. Even the people who had noticed Li Li before were very taboo about this matter.
The only reason for such a demerit was that it was rumored that Young Master Yang, who had always been mysterious and unobtrusive, but made Young Master Chu feel embarrassed, said hello.
Now two women like this have met together, and they are not married yet.
"Is something wrong?" Yang Dongxu saw Li Li raise her eyebrows.
This woman had given him the impression that she was clean and never sloppy. Although it is human nature to get what you want without a backer and want more, he obviously didn't like the other party using this nature on him.
"My friend wants to buy some shops here." Li Li said.
"It wasn't before." Yang Dongxu frowned. The two people had talked about this matter. Now that they used this excuse to come to the construction site to block him, it undoubtedly made him feel a little unhappy.
"I contacted Manager Wang, but he said he wanted to open a store here. Although in principle, Hurricane Construction does not ask the store owner what business he does, but he hopes that we will follow Hurricane Construction's plan, so as to avoid vicious competition and the store will be comprehensive. To attract more customers, come here today and ask in detail," Li Li said.
She didn't have much expression on the surface, but her eyes were looking at Chen Xin from time to time. Although it was only from the corner of her eyes, she was unconsciously comparing the woman opposite to herself.
Yang Dongxu said nothing and turned to look at Wang Qing.
"One-third of the shops on the site are for sale, and two-thirds of the shops are rented out as much as possible according to your instructions. In order to make this site more popular.
Whenever someone comes to inquire about the store, I will give some advice. For example, that place is suitable for opening a restaurant, and there are already residents nearby who have opened restaurants of that type.
Those places are clothing districts, and those brand clothing have already been settled. If you want to be an agent, it is best not to repeat the same thing." Wang Qing said.
Yang Dongxu nodded, he had indeed said this before. Compared with the rampant online merchants more than ten years later, many people come to open stores than customers come in to make purchases.
Nowadays, if shopping malls are well planned, they will indeed attract customers. For example, there is a floor dedicated to selling various brands of clothing.
In principle, Hurricane Building only accepts the entry of some brand clothing agents into the stores on this floor. In order to avoid vicious competition, in principle, a brand can only have one store.
Because most of the shops are only for rent and not for sale, Hurricane Construction has a lot of management rights over the site, and the property is owned by the Sharp Blade Security Company. Therefore, there are some suggestions that home buyers really need to consider carefully.
"We want to open a mobile phone store. Not only mobile phones, but also cameras, MP3 and MP4, and other electronic products. However, it is impossible to buy all these things from the same brand, so I came here to ask about the situation. I saw it before Someone is selling Nokia mobile phones, so can we do the same?" It was He Min who spoke.
The imagined Mars hitting the earth did not appear. Both women saw each other and looked at each other from the corner of their eyes, but they did not say a word. Apart from nodding and saying hello to each other when they met just now, the two women There was no other mutual communication.
"In principle, we force tenants or shop owners to do whatever they want. The unified planning is just to give you a general impression of each other. Don't use the same brand and the same product in several stores to avoid vicious competition and affect the atmosphere of the venue." Wang Qing said said.
Although hurricane construction has great powers, this regulation is indeed only a suggestion and is not meant to be enforced. However, basically all rental customers will comply with this regulation.
However, these merchants are not locals from Hangzhou, but all come from Hainan. In other words, they have already tasted the benefits of being a brand agent at Sanwan Resort.
So when they saw that Hurricane Architecture had started to build this urban complex in Hangzhou, everyone rushed to reserve shops in advance. Anyone who can open a brand store in Sanwan Resort has some knowledge of the history of Sanwan Resort. Until the beginning, the resort was not owned by Sanwan Travel Agency, but by Hurricane Construction.
Although there is no sea in Hangzhou, there is a lake in Hangzhou. Although West Lake is a bit far away from here, it is different from Sanwan. Sanwan was originally a small fishing village. Even now, excluding foreigners and tourists, there are still very few locals.
Hangzhou is a city with a certain population base. As soon as you look at the planning of this urban complex, you will know that it is the CBD. Opening a store here will definitely make a profit.
"You discuss it." Yang Dongxu and He Min said hello, then turned to Wang Qing and said: "When decorating the cinema, pay attention to fire prevention and fire escapes. Please refer to other cinemas for line control to avoid secondary decoration."
After saying that, he took Chen Xin into the car next to him and left. From the beginning to the end, he and Li Li didn't have any flirtations or too many expressions.
He Min sent Yang Dongxu away with a smile.
"I still have something to do here. If you two are okay, I'm going to get busy." Wang Qing said after seeing off his old squad leader.
Wang Qing has grown very fast since taking charge of the project in front of him, and is no longer the scholar in the office. But once you have reached a certain level of renqingda, you cannot sit in this position. If you are not human and have no vision, you will not be able to work at all.
Things on the construction site are not just as simple as completing the project, but various things are intertwined together like a mess. When I first sat in this position, I was confused for a whole month. It was not that I couldn't grasp the clue at work, but that I drank from the beginning of the month to the end of the month.
If it weren't for his IQ and EQ being online, his learning ability would also be extremely strong. He quickly adjusted his attitude towards others. He should be careful when he should be careful and be cold when he should be cold. Otherwise, he would drink and vomit at the wine table many times.
The two women in front of them obviously came to see their big boss, and the big boss's attitude just now was obviously business-like. This is a bit confusing. Normally, things should be done in a business-like manner, but if this matter is done in a business-like manner, it means that your boss doesn't want to see the other party.
But the boss doesn’t want to see the other person, so he can’t blindly follow others to see how they look. Why doesn’t his boss say anything without looking at him? So it's better not to talk too much.
As for what you say when you first speak, as if you are trying to drive someone away, this is just another step down for the other party. Since his boss is gone, he probably doesn't want to have anything to do with him.
"Then don't bother me too much. Let's have a meal together sometime. There will be many places in the future that may cause trouble to Manager Wang." He Min said with a smile. There was no hint of displeasure on his face, but a somewhat interested glance. He glanced at Wang Qing.
"This is all my job. In fact, it will take more than a month for these things to be sorted out by the sales office. You can go directly to inquire, because the property will be settled at the same time. From now on, the mall will belong to the property department. manage."
"Thank you, Manager Wang, for reminding me." The smile on He Min's face became a little brighter.
The two parties said a few polite goodbyes, and Wang Qing turned around and returned to the construction site. He really had a lot of things to do.
"That lover of yours." Watching Wang Qing leave, He Min bumped Li Li with her shoulder, and the smile on her face was somewhat intriguing.
"It's divided." Li Li said lightly.
"Huh?" He Min was stunned for a moment, and then said with a look of surprise on his face: "It's divided!"
"Why are you so loud? Are you afraid that others won't hear you?" Li Li glared at He Min angrily and walked towards her car.
She really came here to find an excuse to block Yang Dongxu, but she didn't expect to meet Chen Xin.
"Why did you break up?" He Min ran quickly to catch up.
"If it's not suitable, just break it up. How else can we break it up?" Li Li said.
She didn't know why she didn't feel much about it before, but when she saw Chen Xin and Yang Dongxu's attitude today, she couldn't help but feel bitter in her heart.
At the same time, she secretly scolded men for not having a good thing. Even after she made her choice, Yang Dongxu's attitude towards her was not disconnected. But today, there were other women around her who still had such an attitude, which made her feel really hurt.
"Who was that just now?" Although he kept warning himself to pay attention to his identity, Chen Xin, who was sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but ask in the end.
"There was some involvement in an accident before, but they have been separated now." Yang Dongxu explained.
Thinking of Yang Dongxu's attitude just now, Chen Xin, who looked sideways at the side of her beloved man's face, nodded and didn't ask any further questions.
"How is the overseas tourism business going?" Yang Dongxu changed the topic on the second floor. It is difficult to explain things between men and women clearly in words, especially when explaining to a woman the relationship between another woman and him, even if they are indeed Divide it neatly.
"The contact with South Korea and Japan is going smoothly. The number of tourists has been rising steadily since last year. However, more people in China want to go to Europe and the United States to see what developed and wealthy countries are like. The business there is being contacted. Three tourist routes have been planned in the first half of this year, two of which are in the United States and one in France."
"Expand the business as soon as possible. Everyone has been frustrated for too long. Now that they have money in their hands, they naturally want to see the world abroad." Yang Dongxu said.
"In fact, although foreign classics have their own characteristics, some places are not necessarily better than those in China." Chen Xin said.
She has also been to foreign countries, and more than once or twice. Big cities are not full of high-rise buildings as imagined. There are also shanty towns and short houses in the city. There is even a smell of urine on the streets of New York, which is not as clean as the streets in China.
"No matter whether it is good or not, as long as you go out, everyone will say it is good." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
Chen Xin looked at him sideways, and for a moment, he didn't get his point.
"When most people say it's good, and you spend money to go out, even if you feel it's not good, you will follow suit and say it's good. Otherwise, you will feel out of place, and even doubt that if you say it's not good, others will think you're lying because you haven't been abroad."
"Can it be like this?" Chen Xin was surprised.
"Why can't it be like this?" Yang Dongxu asked back.
In fact, it's like this. Anyone who has been abroad feels that they are tall and worldly, and they feel that those who haven't been abroad are bumpkins. Even if they go to Thailand for a trip and come back, they feel that their status has increased.
And Chinese people have a very interesting thing. For example, when buying a car, a car of a big brand is very face-saving and very cool.
As a result, this big brand car has constant problems, but in order to show off, they never say that they spent money to buy a problem car. They still drive around everywhere, making others envious and jealous.
When someone broke the news that there was a problem with the car, it suddenly seemed that the matter could not be concealed, and then they began to stand up and complain about this and that, as if the whole car was going to be sent to the scrap factory.
It is the same when going abroad. Everyone feels that going abroad is a way to gain knowledge. The moon in foreign countries is rounder and the air is sweeter. But you insist that there is urine smell on Fifth Avenue and there are garbage and rats everywhere in the subway. No one believes you at all. How can it be like this in a developed country?
But the fact is that China is not as good as foreign countries in many aspects, but some of these are indeed not as good as foreign countries, and some are very speechless.
Because China's technology level should be compared with the United States, its manufacturing level should be compared with Germany, and its fashion should be on par with Paris. In short, there are only two countries in the world, China and foreign countries.
Even during the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty did not surpass other countries in everything. For example, the Persian dancers danced sexier than you, Arabic numerals were indeed convenient to use, and the good horses in the Western Regions were better than those in the Central Plains.
So how many years has China been reforming and opening up?
You compare with this and that, and you don't look down on the second and third countries. No matter what you compare, you compare with the first. If China is really the first in everything, then I guess you can plan to rush into the sea of stars.
Go home to pack up your things first, and then send Chen Xin on the plane. The main reason she went to the construction site today was because the merchants at Sanwan Resort asked her to be a representative.
After all, Hurricane Construction and Sanwan Travel Agency are two companies. They want to bring the brands they represent into this integrated city. Chen Xin, the general manager of Sanwan Travel Agency, came out to say hello and everyone felt relieved.
She booked a flight to the United States this afternoon. Ran Feifei will receive her there, and then she will personally lead the team to walk through the two-day travel route in the United States to see if there are any hidden dangers.
After all, it is a trip abroad. If something happens when you are unfamiliar with the place, it will be very troublesome. However, the American travel agency that cooperates with Sanwan Travel Agency is still reliable. This time, she personally walked the route mainly to make herself feel at ease.
After sending Chen Xin to the plane, Yang Dongxu drove home and was stunned halfway. Then he turned the steering wheel and entered the parking lot. Opposite him was the sports hall where he had applied for a card but never went once.
"No wonder everyone has monthly or annual membership cards, not rounds." After searching in the car and finding the membership card he had applied for before, Yang Dongxu shook his head speechlessly. It cost several thousand yuan, but it expired because he had not come once.
"Hello, sir, are you a member of our store? Some sports in our store are only open to members because of the large number of people." When she walked into the gym, the very beautiful lady at the front desk stood up and bowed. Although the smile on her face was professional, it still made people feel sweet. I guess being beautiful even makes people angry.
"Can this membership card still be used? I haven't used it once since I applied for it." Yang Dongxu handed over the membership card in his hand.
The front desk took the membership card and swiped it, and took a look at the membership card information, "Sorry, sir, your card is a monthly card, and it has expired now."
"I know it's expired, but I had something to do at home some time ago and didn't have time to come. After applying for the card, I didn't use it once, and thousands of yuan were gone. It's a bit of a rip-off. Otherwise, let me go in and find a sports project to play today, and this card will be used." Yang Dongxu said.
"Well." The receptionist looked a little embarrassed. If the membership card expires and is not renewed, it is definitely not possible to go in and consume. However, the situation of the male member in front of him is indeed special.
After applying for the membership card, it expired without being used once. Several thousand yuan is indeed not a small amount. So she was afraid that if she refused, the other party would be unwilling to make a fuss.
So after hesitating for a while, the receptionist said: "According to the rules of the gym, expired membership cards cannot be used, but you did lose a little if you didn't come once after applying for the card. I will ask the manager for you to see if you can go in and experience it for free today."
"Then ask." In fact, Yang Dongxu didn't care about several thousand yuan. The only reason he asked was to see if he could go in and experience what this gym was like.
When the opening event was held, there were a lot of people, and he just took a general look. I really don't know what it's like. If you are not satisfied with the renewal fee, it is obviously impossible to refund the money, and then you will spend several thousand yuan in it.
The front desk called the manager of the gym, and he looked at the exercise area on the other side boredly. Compared with the opening, there are fewer people now, but the flow of people is not bad, and most of the equipment is exercising.
He looked around casually and suddenly his eyes paused.
