() Wang Ming also knew in his heart that since the other party had an expert to give guidance on the design, the decoration team would probably have been found. This was just a polite comment.
"Thank you, Manager Wang, for your concern. We have already found him, but..."
Zhang Shufen glanced at Lu Yang and asked, "Manager Wang, I also want to ask, does your company have a decoration supervisor?"
Lu Yang had said in the morning that the main purpose of coming today was not only to produce renderings and buy building materials, but also to find a qualified supervisor. Otherwise, it would be difficult to ensure the quality of the project just by relying on his own lack of experience.
"Decoration..." Wang Ming frowned. It took some time to understand this new word, and asked: "Supervisor?"
In the construction market, project supervision has always existed, but in the decoration market these days, professional decoration supervisors have not yet appeared.
Wang Ming has been engaged in the construction industry for some years and quickly understood Zhang Shufen's ideas.
"Not only our company, I'm afraid there are no dedicated renovation supervisors in the entire Chongshan area..."
Wang Ming took a look at the sketch in Liao Li's hand, made a decision, and said with a smile: "If Ms. Zhang can be trusted, how about I come and help you supervise it? I have my own car, and I can go to your place to take a look when I have time.
At first glance, the remuneration is easy to tell. I hope Ms. Zhang can help me ask the designer of this sketch. If there is an opportunity, I hope to communicate with him."
He has been engaged in the construction industry for some years, but it has only been a few years since Wang Ming took a leave of absence without pay and started a decoration business. Now he still has a learning attitude. He has never seen the design style of this sketch before, and he is very excited about it.
"This..." Zhang Shufen glanced at Lu Yang quietly, and found that he nodded slightly, so she said vaguely: "I'll ask after I go back. It's better to discuss the remuneration first, so as not to make it difficult to talk about it later."
"That's okay," Wang Ming laughed and made a little joke and said, "Then I'd better get the gas money back!"
Several people laughed, and then Wang Ming casually quoted a price, which was much less than Lu Yang had estimated before.
Seeing that Wang Ming was a bit old and spoke very reliably, so he should have some experience, Zhang Shufen agreed.
Relatively speaking, this kind of company pays more attention to procedures than the decoration team, so both parties signed an order explaining this matter.
Then Zhang Shufen took out the building materials list written by Lu Yang. She still wanted to ask for professional advice.
After Wang Ming looked through it carefully, he nodded and said that it was a good idea, and she felt relieved.
Later, Wang Ming and Zhang Shufen talked about the approximate price of building materials in the market. He was a smart man and knew that the other party would not be able to buy from his connections, so he had a casual chat and then saw the customer off.
After coming out of Wang Ming's company, Wei Zhiwu found Lu Yang still winking at him behind his back. He was very surprised. He pulled him and said, "Yang Yang, what are you looking at? Come on, let's go shopping for building materials."
After leaving Liao Li who was walking out the door and staring in confusion, Lu Yang turned around and pulled Wei Zhiwu, catching up with Zhang Shufen and Wei Zhixiu in front.
Several people came to the building materials market. Because Lu Yang had arranged the order of buying building materials, they did not need to wander around aimlessly, but were looking for specific targets.
Only then did Lu Yang discover the tragedy of the building materials market in Chongshan in 1995. Not only were there few varieties of building materials, but the choices were also very limited. As expected, he was right to be as conservative as possible before.
However, after asking about the prices of some building materials, Lu Yang felt mixed emotions. At this time, the solid wood floor was just a piece of cabbage, and one square meter of ash cost only about 30 yuan. Of course, there are some that are not cheap. Wallpaper is not cost-effective in comparison.
, which is slightly better and more expensive per square meter than solid wood flooring.
I selected all the building materials needed for the first stage, inquired about the prices, and identified a few merchants with moderate quotations and enthusiastic service. I agreed to buy them in two days. After all, the decoration could not be officially completed until the renderings came out.
For the first time, Zhang Shufen discovered that buying building materials was not that troublesome. It was already noon, and a few people were looking for a place to eat.
Since Zhang Shufen was here, I couldn't afford any luxury, so I just found a slightly cleaner roadside stir-fry shop and ordered two dishes and one soup.
"Mom, when the decoration starts, it will be too troublesome for you to take the bus every day," while waiting for the food, Lu Yang first said to Zhang Shufen, and then shouted to Wei Zhiwu: "Fifth brother!"
"What?"
Wei Zhiwu didn't expect to call him suddenly, so he quickly looked away from looking around at the excitement, and turned back to look at Lu Yang in confusion.
"I remember you have a driver's license, right?" Lu Yang asked with a smile.
"Ah, Yangyang, how did you know?"
Wei Zhiwu was surprised. He didn't remember saying that. He touched his head and said, "I got the photo, but I'm not familiar with driving a car yet."
Lu Yang thought to himself, not only do I know that you have a driver's license, I also know that you will make a fortune next year because of this.
Before the Wei family planned to send Wei Zhiwu to the army, they used their connections to spend money to get him a B license that could drive a truck. They hoped that when he went to the army, he could use his skills to go to a better unit. It would be better if he could practice his skills well and come back to work as a transporter.
It is also a road.
However, at this time Wei Zhiwu actually only had experience in driving agricultural vehicles, but it was not difficult to get a driver's license if he had the connections and money.
"Mom, please go and ask Aunt Liu," Lu Yang turned back to Zhang Shufen and said, "Let's see if Uncle Yue can help. Rent a small truck for Fifth Brother to drive. There are so many materials, and it will be more convenient to have a car."
At this time, although the boss of the building materials market also has a special delivery company, he usually has to pay the money first. It will be too annoying for you to play tricks at that time, so naturally it is better to pick up the goods yourself.
"Rent a car?"
When Zhang Shufen heard this, she hesitated and said: "It's so expensive. It's not necessary and it's not too much. Lao Wu, I, and your Aunt Li are here to help, so we can handle it!"
"Mom, I don't want you to take money, sister!"
Lu Yang rolled his eyes at his mother, knowing that her spending habits would not change so quickly.
At this time, Wei Zhixiu silently took out the bankbook from the purse, and Zhang Shufen took it, still staring at the purse. She didn't pay attention because of so many things yesterday, but now she realized that the bag was very beautiful.
After coming back to her senses, Zhang Shufen was shocked when she saw that there were six thousand yuan in the passbook and asked: "Third girl, where did you get so much money in your hand?"
"Mom, this is the money earned by the third sister!"
Lu Yang smiled and confused right and wrong, and said: "The one you are wearing costs more than 100 yuan, and the fifth brother is wearing a complete set of 200 yuan. They were all bought with the money earned by the third sister."
Lu Yang had made an agreement with Wei Zhixiu earlier that the money could not be counted as his own, otherwise it would definitely be commemorated by Zhang Shufen.
Wei Zhixiu naturally couldn't pester him, so he had no choice but to agree.
"Ah?" Zhang Shufen was stunned.
"What?" Wei Zhiwu was stunned.
"Um……"
Wei Zhixiu nodded sheepishly, glanced at Lu Yang, and then fell silent.
"Hey, here's the thing..."
Lu Yang then struck while the iron was hot and explained, confusing right and wrong.
It was said that Wei Zhixiu remembered that some items in the waste products during the relocation of the Red Shipyard might be valuable, so he asked Lu Yang to go to the garbage station to look for them.
As a result, Lu Yang became acquainted with Liu Qiuhua and asked her to search for them. Then he was lucky enough to find a few ancient books and sold them for a lot of money.
Naturally, neither Zhang Shufen nor Wei Zhiwu could hear anything wrong with these true and false words.
"I also shared a lot of hard work!"
Lu Yang took out some pictures of the Four Great Men from his trouser pocket and showed them off.
At this time, the food was on the table. Lu Yang quickly took care of Wei Zhixiu, packed the rice, washed the chopsticks with tea, and put half of the fish on it, showing his utmost attentiveness.
"You kid!"
Zhang Shufen came back to her senses, and immediately said "dissatisfied": "Now that your sister has bribed her, my mother doesn't even care!"
"Second aunt," Wei Zhixiu's pretty face turned red immediately, she hurriedly pushed the bowl over and said, "You eat..."
"Silly girl, you are joking!"
Zhang Shufen pushed the bowl back with a smile and said with emotion: "You young people have so many ideas, why can't I think of them?"
"Stop feeling emotional, eating is the most important thing!"
Lu Yang had already filled the second bowl at this time, handed it over, and said: "Mom, it's inconvenient to withdraw the money now, so you can keep the money first, and I will pay you back whatever I spent later, and it will be treated as five dollars."
The tuition fee for practicing driving is just renting it for a month or two anyway."
Naturally, renting a car from a factory through a trust relationship will not be as expensive as outside. It should be enough to pay $1,000 for gas a month.
"knew!"
Zhang Shufen rolled her eyes at Lu Yang. Her son said that he seemed to be stingy.
At this time, Wei Zhiwu was puzzled. He took a look at the bankbook and found that there were thousands of yuan. He was even more puzzled and looked at his sister stupidly.
Wei Zhixiu glared at him, took back the bankbook and put it away silently, but his heart was not as calm as it seemed.
The secret between myself and Yang Yang is hidden from her and Yang Yang's relatives. This feeling is really disturbing.
After the meal, the two parties separated. Lu Yang and Wei Zhixiu were going to their grandfather Nainai's house, while Zhang Shufen took Wei Zhiwu to continue looking at building materials.
In the afternoon, Lu Yang and Wei Zhixiu went to Yu Mingyang first and handed over the dozens of books they had brought. Naturally, they would not be able to sell them for that much this time, but the quality of these books was still not low, and Xiao Qian still had them.
Lu Yang also told Yu Mingyang that he might not have any ancient books in the future, but he still had thousands of old books from before the 1970s and 1980s. He waved his hand and said it didn't matter, just take them over and have a look.
A week passed quickly. Lu Yang and Wei Zhixiu returned home. The house had already started to be decorated.
Naturally, there were many problems at first, but with the decoration details and precautions written by Lu Yang, Wei Zhiwu and Zhang Shufen were asked to strengthen supervision of Wei Xingguang's decoration team, and Wang Ming, a senior person, came to supervise, and the decoration soon went smoothly.
Liu Qiuhua was very diligent and had already taken the factory's free truck to the medicine spring several times. She directly used the cart from the collective. By this time, there were thousands of old books piled on the balcony.
It was convenient for Wei Zhiwu to drive a minivan, so Lu Yang and Wei Zhixiu asked him to drive and transport the books directly there in a minivan every day.
Of course, it was impossible to count thousands of old books at once, so Lu Yang asked Yu Mingyang to count them slowly, and he would collect the money next time.
Week after week, and soon it was late August, a lot of used books were sold, and stamps were also sold one after another.
There were already more than 20,000 yuan in the bankbook. Lu Yang planned to spend some money on Liu Qiu, but she shook her head and refused to take it.
The renovation of the house was completed this weekend, and the placement test will begin next week. Lu Yang also plans to go home to prepare for the test.
On Friday night, in the name of Wei Zhixiu, Lu Yang invited his grandfather Nainai, Lu Jiangping and Lu Jiangkang's family to have a good meal.
When they returned to their residence on Saturday morning, no one was there. Lu Yang and Wei Zhixiu put down their luggage and walked towards the fifth group.
When he arrived at the door of his house, Lu Yang found that the opposite door was also wide open.
The two of them stood at the door and looked at the house that had been cleaned. They looked amazing at first glance, but did not go in immediately.
When a figure in the dining room saw Lu Yang, he ran to the door very excitedly and grabbed Lu Yang's arm.
