When I got home, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening, and the two women were not downstairs. They must have gone back upstairs to rest.
Seeing this, Chen Feng didn't stop downstairs and went directly upstairs to his room. Then he saw Wu Mengting lying on his bed looking at her mobile phone.
When Chen Feng was slightly stunned, Wu Mengting took the initiative to speak: "Back?"
"Well, I'm back."
Chen Feng answered subconsciously.
"Go take a shower and go to bed."
Wu Mengting put down her phone and said casually.
At the same time, she also raised her hands and stretched her body.
Although she was lying on her back, she was not covered with a quilt because the room was air-conditioned.
Wearing a set of slightly loose pajamas, it could not hide her graceful figure.
Chen Feng looked slightly absent-minded.
"Go quickly." Wu Mengting urged with a hint of coquettishness.
"Ah good."
After Chen Feng came to his senses, he immediately turned around and went to the bathroom.
Five minutes later, Chen Feng came out wrapped in a bathrobe and walked towards the bed, feeling slightly excited.
Although he and Wu Mengting have had skin-to-skin contact for a long time, she is not keen on this kind of thing and is very delicate. Chen Feng has to take care of her feelings every time and cannot fully enjoy it.
In addition, he felt a little guilty for her, so Chen Feng rarely took the initiative to be intimate with her.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Sun Xiaorui is around.
However, there is no doubt that Wu Mengting's beauty and charming style are always memorable to Chen Feng every time he thinks of her.
If given the opportunity to be intimate with him, Chen Feng would certainly not refuse it foolishly.
Walking to the bed, he was about to take off his bathrobe and go to bed, but Wu Mengting stopped him with a voice: "Go and change into pajamas and put them on. My relatives are here. You just need to be calm at night and hold me to sleep."
Chen Feng's originally excited mood suddenly cooled down.
After two seconds of silence, Chen Feng responded quickly and agreed: "Okay."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the closet.
Soon, Chen Feng changed into light pajamas.
Wu Mengting has a habit of sleeping in pajamas all year round. Maybe most women are like this.
Chen Feng did not have this habit, but at her request, especially when the two of them slept together, he could only "do as the Romans do" and put on pajamas for sleeping.
"Go and turn off the lights."
"good."
After turning off the lights, Chen Feng finally went to bed.
As soon as he lay down, he felt a warm body pressing against his arms.
The next day, shortly after Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui went to work, Chen Feng also drove out.
He went there this time to help Guo Mengyao look at the house.
Last night, Cai Zhixin had already sent him all the information he had collected about the garden villa, and he forwarded it to Guo Mengyao.
There are only 5 garden villas that meet the requirements. They are all on Donghu South Road, not too far from Zijin Garden.
After Guo Mengyao read the information, he directly eliminated three of them because the area was not large enough.
There are only two areas left that meet the requirements.
Guo Mengyao asked Chen Feng to help her check out the house tomorrow. If it was suitable, he could even help with a price.
Of these two garden villas, one is owned by a catering company and the other is owned by a private individual.
The first place Chen Feng went to was Garden Villa, which is now a high-end restaurant and a globally renowned brand restaurant.
When Chen Feng came over, Cai Zhixin was already waiting at the door.
"Brother, are you here?"
As Cai Zhixin spoke, he threw the cigarette in his mouth to the ground and stamped it out, then came up to greet him with a smile. He knew that Chen Feng did not smoke and hated the smell of cigarettes. So at the dinner last night,
No one smoked at the table.
"Have you contacted the owner of this store?"
"We got in touch, but he's overseas and couldn't get over right away. However, he has already asked the manager here to cooperate with us in viewing the house."
"Okay. Go in."
"Hey, okay."
The two of them went in, and Cai Zhixin told the front desk. Soon the restaurant manager came out to receive them personally, and took them to take a closer look at the garden villa.
This villa has a history of nearly a hundred years and is an architectural cultural relic protection unit. Its architectural style is a combination of Chinese and Western styles from the Republic of China period, and is a two-story building.
The most iconic thing is that there is a long red brick chimney on the roof of the second floor.
The total indoor area is 456 square meters, in addition to a 200 square meter basement and a 60 square meter garden.
It took almost half an hour to read it. Generally speaking, it was okay. However, if this place was changed into the headquarters office of Mengyao Cosmetics, Chen Feng still felt that it would be a bit inappropriate.
The main reason is that this place has been converted into a restaurant for business. If you buy it and then convert it into an office space, you will have to re-approval, decorate, etc., which is obviously very troublesome, but there is no need.
In addition, the current selling price of this place is obviously too high.
More than ten years ago, due to old street renovation and historical building protection projects, this catering company spent 20 million yuan to acquire the 40-year property rights of this property.
And now, even though the property rights here only have more than 20 years left, the selling price is at least 300 million.
This is still the market’s estimated price.
And because such houses are basically expensive but not marketable, sellers are generally reluctant to sell them. If you really want to buy them, you have to increase the price.
After Chen Feng took a look at it, he realized that the house here was of high quality and quality, but the price/performance ratio was too low.
After seeing this place, Chen Feng and Cai Zhixin immediately went to the second garden villa, which was only five or six hundred meters apart on the same road.
This is a real Western-style villa, with a wall, a large iron fence at the entrance, and a yard. Inside are three two-story side-by-side houses, full of Western architectural style.
It was also built during the Republic of China and is nearly a hundred years old.
Now the owner of this villa is an internationally renowned artist, but the artist now lives abroad. The villa is mainly managed by his nephew in China. In fact, it is vacant most of the time.
Although this artist was born in the Dragon Kingdom, he is now a foreigner and is used to life in a foreign country. In the past few years, he would come here to live for a while every year as a vacation and leisure, but now he is getting older.
, is already eighty years old, and hasn’t come back much.
I am also interested in selling this house.
This is what the artist's nephew said. He is sixty-two years old this year.
Cai Zhixin knew the artist nephew. Therefore, the nephew spoke very directly and did not deliberately hide anything.
While walking them through it, I explained the background.
The artist spent more than 20 million to buy this place almost twenty years ago. The price was of course sky-high at the time, and many people thought he was overpriced.
But looking at it today, it is obviously not the case, quite the opposite.
This garden villa has a yard area of 80 square meters, three side-by-side two-story buildings with an area of 490 square meters, a basement of 200 square meters, and a small garden of 60 square meters in the back.
The property rights were originally purchased for 60 years, but now there are still 40 years left.
The reserve price revealed by his uncle to his nephew was 500 million. If Chen Feng really wanted to buy it, he could contact his uncle for help. The hope of closing the deal at this reserve price was quite high.
In terms of cost performance, this house is obviously much more cost-effective than the house in the previous restaurant.
One obvious reason why the villa here is much lower than that is that the location is slightly off.
Although they are on the same road, this road is two kilometers long. Such a long road, so many houses, and the location may seem the same, but they are definitely different.
The villa where the restaurant is located belongs to the downtown area and is more suitable for business, while the villa here, with its deep courtyard, is more suitable for personal living.
After Chen Feng saw the house here, he personally thought it was pretty good. If it were the headquarters of Mengyao Cosmetics Company, as long as the decoration was in place, the style and quality would really go up.
After leaving Cai Zhixin and getting into the car, Chen Feng called Guo Mengyao.
"I have viewed both houses. I personally think the garden villa in the second house is more suitable. The owner is an artist who has settled abroad. He is 80 years old this year. He is represented by his nephew in China. He has
Willingness to sell. The base price revealed by his nephew is 500 million, but I can’t guarantee that he is telling the truth. You have to come and see it in person next time before you decide."
"I can't live without you recently. It's better for you to help me make a decision. If you really think it's suitable, make a decision first and then negotiate the price. As long as the price is right, pay the other party a part of the deposit. Wait two or three weeks.
, I should be free. At that time, I will go over and sign a house purchase contract with the other party."
There is no doubt that Guo Mengyao has absolute trust in Chen Feng. For a house involving so much money, she just handed it over to Chen Feng as the sole agent.
However, Chen Feng didn't want to continue taking care of it. He had promised to introduce the house to her and help with the house inspection, which was already interesting enough. Now he actually wanted to talk to the other party about buying a house. If he buys a house in the future, would he still need his help in taking care of the house?
The decoration is really endless.
He is no longer a shareholder of Mengyao Cosmetics Company. Even a shareholder is not fully responsible for these trivial matters.
"It's better for you to discuss this with the other party in person. After all, such a large amount of money is involved. Although you have seen the photos of the house, you haven't seen some of the internal details and layout with your own eyes.
It's best to come over and take a look. It doesn't matter if you come over at night. The other party has been vacant for several years and is not in a hurry to sell it. Plus, with so much money, not just anyone can take it out casually."
After Guo Mengyao was silent for a while, she said, "Okay. I'll try my best to take the time to go there this Sunday, take a look at it, and decide on the matter. I'll go there the same day and come back the same day. You can accompany me then."
"Okay, just contact me then."
"That's it, see you next time. Goodbye."
"good."
After Guo Mengyao said goodbye this time, she hung up the phone. It was obvious that she was indeed very busy.
Looking at the time, it was only ten o'clock in the morning. Chen Feng was not in a hurry to go home. After thinking about it for a while, he went to Lin Yujiao's place.
I went to her store, and sure enough she was here.
The business in the store was not very busy in the morning, but there were still some in small groups. However, there were already two shopping guides and a cashier in the store, and with Lin Yujiao as the female boss, there was no need.
Chen Feng came over, and when Lin Yujiao saw it, she immediately came out of the cashier.
The two came out of the store in tacit agreement.
"Why did you come here suddenly?"
Lin Yujiao asked with some surprise.
"I just came out to do some errands and came over to see you." Chen Feng told the truth.
Lin Yujiao was not disappointed at all, but was still very happy. After all, Chen Feng still thought of her, and said with a smile: "As long as you think of me."
"Let's go and take a walk." Chen Feng also smiled, stretched out his hand and naturally took her hand and walked toward the lake embankment.
When Chen Feng held her hand, Lin Yujiao glanced around subconsciously. When she saw that no one was paying attention and there were no acquaintances, she felt relieved.
"That guy named He didn't harass you anymore, right?" Chen Feng asked casually.
"No more." Lin Yujiao shook her head and then added, "However, I heard the news that he was stabbed and seriously injured. He almost didn't save him."
"Is there still something like this?" Chen Feng asked curiously, "Do you know the reason?"
"I also heard from a friend, who also purchased goods from He Yongbing. I happened to know about it. The other party didn't know exactly why he was stabbed."
"Oh, forget it. Anyway, as long as he doesn't harass you anymore."
"Um."
The matter of He Yongbing was revealed in this way.
The two walked on the lake embankment for a while, then sat on an outdoor bench and chatted for a while. When it was almost eleven o'clock, Chen Feng got up and took her back to the shop, and then drove home.
I got home before 11:30, and at almost 11:40, Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui came back together.
The three of them had lunch together, and the overall atmosphere was relatively harmonious.
At the dinner table, Wu Mengting said that she had given the HR manager Xu Haixia a dismissal notice this morning and asked her to hand over the work within three days and officially leave.
When Chen Feng heard that Wu Mengting had fired the manager of the HR department on her first day back at work, he was slightly surprised. This was too resolute.
"Have you communicated with Sijia about this beforehand?" Chen Feng asked.
Wu Mengting nodded and said: "Of course I told her in advance. Just say that this is what you meant, and she agreed."
Chen Feng was speechless. Chen Feng was the boss, and no matter how powerful the general manager Lu Sijia was, there was no way he could go against the boss's wishes in terms of personnel arrangements.
In addition, when the boss Chen Feng made a surprise inspection, Xu Haixia, the HR manager, did not do her job well. It was indeed justifiable to fire her.
But Chen Feng clearly said at the beginning that he would secretly examine Xu Haixia again and give her a period of time. If she made corrections, there would be no need to fire her.
As a result, Wu Mengting was fired directly on her first day back at work.
This notice has been issued, and even if Chen Feng is the boss, it is impossible for him to go back on his words. What's more, Xu Haixia does not do her job well.
Chen Feng could only ask: "Then who will take over her position as HR manager?"
Wu Mengting said: "Wei Jing, the current head of the Human Resources Department, has joined the company for almost a year. From the beginning as a recruitment specialist to the current position of supervisor, the Human Resources Department actually handles more than 90% of the management.
She was doing all the work, so the manager Xu Haixia became lazy and slacked off. She often shopped online at the company. She thought that others didn’t know, but in fact, after a long time, how could she not be discovered by others? So, I think
There is no need for the company to support her as an idler with a high salary. In order to increase revenue and reduce expenditure for the company, it is best to fire her directly. Losing her as a human resources manager will have little impact on the current human resources department. On the contrary, it will save the company every year.
Spend at least 300,000 to 400,000 yuan in welfare benefits.”
Wu Mengting's words were well-founded, and Chen Feng could not refute it, let alone refute it. He was the first to propose Xu Haixia's dismissal.
"Okay, then the matter is settled."
Chen Feng had an impression of Wei Jing. She graduated from Aurora University in Shanghai. She is only twenty-seven years old. She has good looks, short hair and glasses. She is relatively thin, energetic, has strong expressive skills, and appears to be very capable.
The last time he went to the company for a surprise inspection, Wei Jing was one of the better performers, and Chen Feng had no reason to object. ()
