() Lin Yingyi had a classmate who worked for the Construction Committee. After the matter was basically agreed upon, Lin Yingyi asked her classmate to make an appointment with the Director of the Construction Committee that day. She secretly gave the Director some money and promised to leave a house for the daughter of the Director of the Construction Committee. After that, the other party finally nodded and said that this matter needed to be discussed at a team meeting.
The result of the discussion was certainly not surprising to everyone. After fully listening to the opinions of relevant experts, everyone agreed that placing the museum at the historic No. 18 Xinhepu better reflects the museum’s mission than No. 108 Yuehua Road. theme.
The matter was quickly reported to the superior leaders for approval, and then the Construction Committee and the Shen family jointly held a press conference. Shen Zaixing announced in front of many reporters that No. 18 Xinhepu would be donated to the Construction Committee for free for the establishment of the Guangzhou Architecture Museum, and held it on the spot. Donation ceremony.
Subsequently, Youth Real Estate signed an agreement with Shen's real estate company. The average price of the agreement was 28,000, and Youth Real Estate was entirely responsible for the later investment.
A week later, the land where the Construction Committee's old dormitory was located was sold to Youth Real Estate in a private auction at a price acceptable to both parties.
The day after the land was photographed, Lin Yingyi took Zeng Jun and Binglan back to her hometown to ask Mr. Lin to come out and help with suggestions.
The plane landed at Hangzhou Xiaoshan Airport. I heard that the eldest lady was coming back, and the driver of the Lin family was waiting at the airport to pick her up early in the morning.
The three of them got into a Mercedes-Benz car. After leaving the airport, the car quickly turned onto the highway bound for Shaoxing.
Sitting in the car, Lin Yingyi asked: "Uncle Li, my grandfather's health is okay."
"The old man is in good health. I heard that you are back. I have been very happy these days." From the driver's words, it can be heard that he must have a very good relationship with Mr. Lin.
In about half an hour, the car exited the highway intersection and drove towards Shaoxing County. The Lin family's old house was no longer in Shaoxing city, but near Shaoxing County.
The old house of the Lin family is located in a small town about 10 miles away from Keqiao. It is an antique Chinese-style house. In front of the house is a large pond of more than ten acres. The water is green. Unfortunately, it is not a good time for lotus viewing. Otherwise, just coming here for a vacation is a good choice.
Hearing the sound of the car, Mr. Lin immediately came out of the main room to welcome him, with a kind smile on his face. Although Mr. Lin was over seventy years old, he was still energetic and his eyes were bright when he looked at people.
Seeing Zeng Jun get out of the car, Mr. Lin asked his granddaughter with a smile: "Xiaoying, you have a boyfriend. The young man looks very energetic."
Lin Yingyi pointed at Binglan who had not yet gotten out of the car and said: "It's not mine, it's hers."
Binglan poked her head out of the car, put a sweet smile on her face, and said, "Hello, grandpa."
"Oh, this is..."
Lin Yingyi pulled Binglan out of the car and introduced: "This is the eldest daughter of Uncle Shen's family."
Mr. Lin nodded and praised: "No wonder he looks no worse than you." Then he turned to Zeng Jun and said, "Young man has a good vision."
Zeng Jun stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
Mr. Lin continued: "Xiao Ying, I have to criticize you. Why do you always get ahead of a good boy when you meet him? The same happened to Xiao Zhang last time."
Lin Yingyi: "..."
Zeng Jun: "..."
Binglan: "..."
Mr. Lin saw that everyone was still standing in the yard with their luggage and hurriedly stepped aside: "Stop standing in the yard and come in quickly. Look at me, an old fool. I blocked you as soon as you arrived." In the yard.”
Then she shouted into the main room: "Mother Zhang, Xiaoying has brought her friends back. Make some tea quickly."
The Lin family's old house is a traditional old house with a very old brick structure, but it is well ventilated. You don't need to turn on the air-conditioning fan when sitting inside in the summer, but it still feels very cool.
The furnishings in the room were simple and natural. With Zeng Jun's eyesight, it was natural that he couldn't tell whether they were good or bad. But Binglan understood this and whispered in Zeng Jun's ear: "These are fine mahogany furniture. Judging from the handiwork, they should be fine." It’s from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.”
Thinking that he was sitting on a chair that might be worth hundreds of thousands, Zeng Jun suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if he was afraid that he would be too heavy and the chair would collapse.
There is a faint fragrance floating in the room, not the fragrance of Longjing, but a bit like the burning sandalwood in the tea house, but the smell is not that strong, it is much lighter and purer.
Zeng Jun looked up at the roof and saw a huge beam hanging across the roof at a glance (houses with old brick and tile structures usually have a huge log beam in the middle of the house, which people today may rarely see), His eyes lingered on it.
When Zeng Jun was at the construction site, he heard Lao Lin brag about it, saying that he had personally seen someone selling an old house. One of the beams made of red sandalwood was sold for a sky-high price of several million. According to Lao Lin's description at the time, Zeng Jun became more and more interested in it. I feel that the log on the beam of the Lin family's old house is this kind of rosewood that is as precious as gold.
It is said that even in ancient times, the price of rosewood was extremely expensive. This shows that even hundreds of years ago, the neighbor was a well-known and prominent family in the local area.
After chatting with the old man about family issues for a while, Lin Yingyi revealed the purpose of her return this time.
Mr. Lin stretched out his hand and tapped Lin Yingyi's forehead lightly, and said with a smile: "You damn girl, you want to tire your grandpa to death." After saying that, he burst out laughing, unable to hide it on his face. Live doting on his granddaughter.
Afterwards, the four of them entered Mr. Lin's study. Zeng Jun helped Lin Yingyi unfold the project planning and design drawings on the case, and took out a large stack of on-site photos taken in advance.
Mr. Lin studied carefully for a long time, and finally took off his reading glasses and said: "You have to see the scene in person before you can decide on this kind of thing. Now that you are here, there is no need to rush back. You can spend two days here to relax. , wandering around, I will go to Guangzhou with you in a few days."
Lin Yingyi jumped up and said, "Grandpa, you have agreed to help change the project design."
"You have come to your door in person to beg me, an old man. Can I not agree?"
Lin Yingyi smiled sweetly and said, "I knew you were the best to me, grandpa."
When they heard that their daughter was back, Lin Yingyi's parents rushed back from Shanghai in the afternoon to have dinner with everyone, and then hurried back to Shanghai.
Zeng Jun and Binglan stayed in Shaoxing for two days, and were accompanied by Lin Yingyi to visit this famous water town. On the fourth day, they took a flight from Hangzhou back to Guangzhou with Mr. Lin.
After getting off the plane, Mr. Lin refused everyone's suggestion to go home and rest first, and directly asked the car to drive to the construction site for a spin.
After walking around the construction site and nearby, Mr. Lin nodded and said to the accompanying Lin Yingyi, Zeng Jun and others: "Well, the situation is basically the same as what you introduced. This project is very interesting. If it is done well, it should be It can sell well.”
Lin Yingyi smiled and said: "I think grandpa has regained the feeling he had back then."
Mr. Lin said with a smile: "One thing is, I didn't expect that when I get old, I will still have the opportunity to be luxurious."
Lin Yingyi quietly winked at Zeng Jun and Binglan and said, "Grandpa seems to be planning to spend money randomly again."
...It is said that after Mr. Lin returned to the Lin family's residence in Guangzhou, he only rested for one night and locked himself in the study the next day, leaving only Lin Yingyi waiting by his side. No one else was allowed to enter the study. Even meals are eaten in the study.
After two consecutive days of busy work, a brand new project planning and design drawing was released. After getting the drawing, even Lin Yingyi, who had been following her around to help, was shocked.
The two dormitories of the Construction Committee and some surrounding supporting facilities cover a total area of 31.7 acres. Excluding the 5 acres of corner land allocated for the Shen family to build a villa, there are still 26.7 acres of land left.
Youth Real Estate bought this land and connected it to the No. 566 Dongfeng Road project. Originally, everyone thought that Youth Real Estate would use this land to build another building. However, with a stroke of his pen, Mr. Lin A large private garden was designed on the land, a luxurious private garden that belongs exclusively to the distinguished owners of No. 566 Dongfeng Road, now No. 108 Yuehua Road.
There are no buildings in the garden except for some pavilions and pavilions. According to the requirements on the planning map, the greening cost per square meter of this 26.7 acres of land reached an astonishing RMB 30,000.
In general, the standard of landscaping in high-end residential areas can reach 3,000 yuan per square meter, which is already a sky-high price. However, Mr. Lin actually asked for a greening fee of 30,000 yuan per square meter. Even if it was directly paved with hundreds of yuan bills, it would probably never cost that much.
Just as Lin Yingyi said, Mr. Lin is indeed planning to spend money recklessly again.
The greening cost of RMB 30,000 per square meter directly frightened the well-known landscape design experts hired by Youth Real Estate from Suzhou at a high price.
"30,000 per square meter is impossible to spend in full. Ten thousand per square meter is as high as the sky." This was the first sentence that came out of the garden design expert's mind after receiving the project plan.
"If you can't spend all the money, you have to find a way to spend it for me. I have such a big budget. If you can't spend all the money, do you want me to use the money to fill the fertilizer?" Mr. Lin said very rudely.
"But, this is really too much money to spend." The garden design expert said with a grimace.
"Who says there are endless flowers? As long as the precious and precious tree species are not illegal, as long as the climate and environment in Guangzhou can support them, you all can find a way for me to move them in. If you don't have them in China, you can go abroad to buy them for me. In short The more expensive you are, the better. It is unreasonable for me to teach you how to spend money." Old Mr. Lin blew his beard and glared at the garden expert, scolding him.
Everyone knew about his reputation in the domestic construction industry, and they didn't dare to refute, so they bowed their heads and left in anger.
It took a full week for the garden expert team to finally come up with the garden design plan. In that design plan, the garden experts worked hard and tried their best to be extravagant and finally included all the money required to spend.
When handing over the design drawings, the veteran expert from Suzhou couldn't help but sigh, "I have never seen such a generous move."
