A woman stood at the door, holding a brochure of Taiming Company in her hand, and knocked on the side door.

"Hello! Is this your company?"

"Yes! How can I help you?"

Ziyu was on the first floor of the company and answered.

"I live on the 24th floor of this building. I saw your flyer when I opened the door today, so I came down to check it out. My house has been renovated, but I'm just not satisfied with it. Let's see how you decorated it."

Ziyu was delighted. She held her belly and accompanied me to stuff the leaflets through the cracks in the door layer by layer from top to bottom. Today, it worked again, and she was very happy.

"Okay, our boss is upstairs. I'll take you up and talk to him in detail."

The lady walked upstairs and I stood up to greet her.

"Hello!"

"Hello! That's it. You guys are so good. It looks much better like this." The lady looked up and saw the top of the ceiling and said in surprise.

"Does the house above you also have fire pipes? This property requirement cannot be changed, and the fire pipes are hung in the middle. I designed and handled this myself."

"That's right, that's right, the house above me is like this. I've already found someone to install it. But the fire pipe is so ugly that the property management won't allow it to be modified. Can you do it for me based on this and how much does it cost?"

"It's very ugly, and it can't be sealed flat. If it's flattened, the height of the attic will be lower. I designed a shape and wrapped the fire pipe. It's beautiful and does not affect the floor height."

"Yes, that's good. I want to do this too. How much do you think it will cost?"

"Okay, the price is... about 3,000 yuan." I said, "This requires construction drawings, otherwise it will be difficult for workers to do it."

"Okay, you can design it yourself?"

"Yes, this rough house we rented was constructed by ourselves."

"You're doing pretty well, boss. Where are you from? It seems you're not from Hezhou, right?"

"I'm from Jiangsu, where are you from?"

"Fellow, I'm from Nanjing, and you did the construction yourself?"

"Yes, we are still fellow villagers! Did you buy this apartment building here?"

"It's like this. We have a fruit supermarket on Linquan Road. It's already halfway under construction. I'm not satisfied with it. Can you find someone to renovate it for me?"

"The construction is already halfway done, it would be wrong for me to interfere any further."

"It's okay. They have completed the settlement. I didn't let them do it. The fruit containers they made were deformed before they were placed, and the paint was uneven. I was so angry. I'm not here. It was the people from my company who hired the construction team.

.”

"Why is this small project decorated like this?"

"That's right, we are a company in Nanjing. We plan to open 30 chain fruit supermarkets in Hezhou. Currently, we have booked 3 stores. The others are still looking for stores. It is difficult to find stores. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. We will look for them again next year. Linquan Road No. 1

One building has been constructed, and two more are under construction at the train station." The lady said, "It must be completed before the Spring Festival. The company has someone specially responsible for decorating this area. I don't often live in Hezhou. After the Spring Festival, I have to live here permanently, so

The house upstairs needs to be renovated this year.”

"Really? You definitely need to plan where you want to live." I said, "I can go to the Linquan Road Fruit Supermarket and see if the other two companies can do it together. Do you have any drawings and budget?"

"There is just no design. A shop with dozens of square meters costs 650 yuan per square meter, including the door head, which is made of acrylic."

"No wonder it can't be done well. How can it be done without drawings? 650 yuan per square meter should be enough. There is still some profit."

"I can make it for you together. You can go and see it on site."

"Thank you! I will go to the scene tomorrow. Thank you for taking care of my fellow villagers."

the next day,

I made an appointment with Zhou Gong’s store on Linquan Road for on-site communication.

It is true that the construction quality of the previous project was too poor, and the rectification was relatively simple, just reinforce the materials and redo the paint.

Then I went to two shops near the train station to measure houses. The shops were not big, and they were basically more than 30 square meters each, square and square.

On the third day, the construction drawings were completed, and the fellow was very happy. The contract was signed to pay 50% of the project cost for the store at the train station, 6,500 yuan for the renovation of the Linquan Road store, and 3,000 yuan for the ceiling on the 24th floor of Yujing.

On the fourth day, Zhou Gong organized workers to start construction work, and it was all completed in less than 20 days...

In the blink of an eye, the Chinese New Year is about to come, and several home decoration projects have all been completed. After settling the project payment for the week's work, there is not much left.

Zhou Gong realized my embarrassment and said cheerfully.

"Mr. Qian, it doesn't matter. How about you keep 10,000 for the Chinese New Year? Although we won't make much money from our cooperation, I recognize you. It doesn't matter if we get married again next year."

"No, Zhou Gong, it's the end of the year and I have to deal with everything. I'm fine. Some of the guys from the fruit supermarket said that paying me the final payment before the Spring Festival will be enough for the New Year."

"It's already 28 years old and she won't come over. Have you contacted her?"

"I contacted them a few days ago and said that they would come before the Spring Festival and it would only cost more than 20,000 yuan. If they don't come, I won't call." I said, "There are still projects next year. They plan to open 30 stores in Hezhou and then go upstairs.

The house is hers, so I can rest assured."

"That's, okay."

"Zhou Gong, thank you for your understanding. Let's work together next year and try to do more projects."

"Yes, Mr. Qian, I hope your business is prosperous and I can make more."

"Yes, Zhou Gong, it just started this year, and it will definitely get better and better next year."

"It's not easy anymore. Many companies just started without any projects. I don't know how many decoration companies are opened and closed in a year. To be honest, I admire you." Zhou Gong said, "I'm going to start a business when I come back from Beijing.

From the company, I don’t dare!”

"I also know that there are risks, so I will test the waters this year. Based on the past few months of operation, I am confident that next year I will change the office to a larger one, recruit a few designers, and cooperate with more online platforms, and the business will naturally increase.

"I said with confidence.

Zhou Gong said goodbye happily and left.

Two days passed, it was already New Year's Eve, and the fellow Nanjing man still didn't contact me.

"Husband, mom called and asked us to come over for dinner tonight."

"Okay!" I looked at the time, it was already 4 pm, and said, "We will set off at 5 o'clock, wait another hour, I believe in our fellow villagers, okay?"

"You can get in touch, but let's go there earlier."

As soon as Ziyu finished speaking, a fellow from Nanjing appeared at the door of the company.

"Mr. Qian, I'm sorry, I've been busy until now. I went back to Nanjing and walked to Hedong. I remembered that I promised to pay you the bill. Come on, let's go to the ATM downstairs and I'll transfer it to you."

"Okay, thank you! I know that we Jiangsu people are relatively honest, so I won't call you." I said haha, "Is the fruit shop open? Congratulations!"

"Yes, I still have to thank you." The lady said, "No, I won't do it anymore. The shareholders in Hezhou don't want to do it, so I'm settling the matter."

I was surprised, "Ah! What trouble."

"It has nothing to do with your construction. If I rent it out next year, there should be no problem."

"That's right, the city entrance is pretty good."

While walking and chatting with a fellow villager, I went to the ATM downstairs to complete the transfer.

"Thank you!" I thanked him repeatedly.

"You're welcome, as you should, Happy New Year! Bye!"
Chapter completed!
