Two hundred and forty chapters rich, we must enjoy life
"Let's go to Shengli Manor to have a look. We are going back soon." Guo Yongren said with a smile. Fang Zhanzhan and Wang Dajun both smiled, went downstairs and got in the car directly. The car drove to Shengli Manor, but was still stopped at the gate of the manor.
The security guard came down, notified White, and was released.
Guo Yongren didn't care. This was a temporary security guard. It wasn't worth getting angry. The car slowly drove into the manor. The current Victory Manor was very different from the last time Guo Yongren saw it.
The trees have become very neat, standing tall in rows. The flowers and plants in the garden have also been tidied up and become orderly. The lawn has also been trimmed and is very flat. Everything is moving towards the good side.
Guo Yongren got out of the car and, accompanied by White, looked around. The river in the manor had been cleaned and the silt had been connected to the river outside. The water quality had become clear. It was very good. He was looking forward to the completion of the manor.
moment.
Construction has begun on the servant building. It is a three-story building with double rooms, triple rooms, and five-person rooms on each floor. According to Guo Yongren's wishes, the first floor is reserved for White and future security personnel, and the others
With White's arrangements, the foundation has already begun and is expected to be completed this year.
The roads in the garden have been completed. It must be said that money leads to efficiency. This sentence is really true. There has been no repairs from the gate to the servants' building. There is no rush to repair the roads after the project is completed.
After looking around, White told Guo Yongren a piece of news, "Sir, the architect responsible for the construction of the maid building has inspected the foundation of the castle and came to the conclusion that the castle does not need to be rebuilt, but only needs to strengthen the foundation.
In addition, the windows can be enlarged and renovated for use." White said, Guo Yongren was stunned, no, this building is so solid, is there any mistake?
"Are you sure?" Guo Yongren asked, and White nodded.
"Of course, sir, you can also find a professional company for evaluation," White said directly. Guo Yongren thought about it and nodded.
"I will arrange it as soon as possible and let them conduct a re-test. If there is no problem with the foundation and the main body, renovate it. These are not problems." Guo Yongren said directly, no matter how nice it is outside, it is not as good as living in your own home.
After leaving Shengli Farm and finding a phone booth, Guo Yongren called Benjamin. Guo Yongren didn't know much about companies like engineering inspection, so he had no choice but to ask Benjamin for help.
"Hello, Tianping Law Firm" a female voice came over, and Guo Yongren smiled.
"Hello, I'm looking for lawyer Benjamin," Guo Yongren said directly.
"Wait a minute, dear, let me check for you to see if Lawyer Benjamin is here." The customer service staff who answered the phone was very polite, and Guo Yongren waited patiently.
"Sir, I'm sorry, Lawyer Benjamin is in court today and won't be back until this afternoon. If you have any questions, you can leave a message." What the customer service said made Guo Yongren feel frustrated.
"Okay, just ask Mr. Guo to find him. He knows who I am and ask him to call me back in the afternoon." Guo Yongren said directly, and the customer service recorded it.
After hanging up the phone, he walked out of the phone booth with an unhappy look on his face and returned to the car. "Let's go back. It's time to eat and have a rest in the afternoon." Guo Yongren said lazily. Fang Zhanzhan and Wang Dajun both smiled and started
Get in the car and return directly to the apartment.
Wang Dajun started cooking, knowing that Guo Yongren was in a bad mood today, so he cooked two more dishes at noon, six dishes, one soup, and stuffed rice. The three of them drank some wine at noon, planning to take a good rest in the afternoon.
Just after dinner, the phone rang. Fang Zhanhua went to answer the call. After saying a few words, he put down the phone and came back. "Master, this is Lawyer Benjamin's phone number," Fang Zhanhan said. Guo Yongren nodded, picked up the napkin and wiped it.
I wiped my mouth and went to answer the phone.
"Hello, Ben" said Guo Yongren
"You're looking for me, I just came back from the court," Benjamin said directly.
"Yes, it's nothing serious. I'm just asking if you know the company that monitors house safety. I want to re-evaluate the castle in Shengli Manor," Guo Yongren said directly.
"This is simple. Just wait a minute and I'll call you. The reputation of these two companies is very good. They mainly do building safety monitoring. They only inspect and don't do projects." Benjamin said directly. This kind of company often encounters
Disputes require lawyers to take action.
Soon, Benjamin told Guo Yongren his contact information, and Guo Yongren wrote it down. "If you are sure to hire them, let me know and I will sign a contract with them." Benjamin said directly, and Guo Yongren nodded.
"I'll ask them how they charge, and then you can come to the manor tomorrow morning and sign the contract." Guo Yongren said directly. Benjamin agreed, chatted for a few words, and then hung up the phone.
Guo Yongren looked at the two contact information in his hand, started to contact, and asked about the price. After comparison, he chose Charlie Testing Company. This company's quotation is more reliable, not a random quotation, castle-type testing, six
One thousand pounds, another company said twenty thousand pounds, and then came a cloud of professional terms, which really shocked Guo Yongren.
After communicating with people from Charlie Company and agreeing to bring people and equipment to meet at Shengli Manor tomorrow, Guo Yongren called White again to make some preparations in advance to avoid confusion.
After the arrangements were made, Guo Yongren went to rest. He started to get drunk and took a good rest in the afternoon. After dinner in the evening, the three of them played poker for a while and then went to rest.
Early the next morning, Guo Yongren and the three of them had breakfast early and set off for Victory Manor. When Guo Yongren arrived, Benjamin had already arrived and was chatting with White. The people from Charlie's company had not arrived yet.
Guo Yongren and Benjamin were drinking tea in the living room. "If the castle does not need to be demolished, it must be a good thing. After all, it is rare to find a house with such a long history." Benjamin said directly with a smile.
"Even if there is no problem after passing the test, the castle must be rebuilt in five or six years at most, because the format of the castle is too old. Wouldn't it be better to rebuild a modern villa?" Guo Yongren said.
"Then you have to design it carefully. Decoration is also a big expense, but I'll leave it to you." Benjamin said with a smile. After finishing speaking, he started drinking tea.
Guo Yongren smiled and said nothing. At this time, White came over and said, "Sir, the people from Charlie Testing Company are here." Guo Yongren stood up, and Benjamin also stood up, and walked out of the castle together.
When the leader of Charlie Company saw the owner of the castle coming out, he immediately put a smile on his face. However, when he saw Benjamin next to Guo Yongren, his face was full of bitterness. This time the business was difficult to handle.
When Guo Yongren and the others were about to come over, the man calmed down and said, "Hello sir, I'm Ryan from Charlie Testing Company. I'm very happy to serve you." After speaking, he stretched out his hand, and Guo Yongren shook hands with him.
"Hello, Lawyer Benjamin, it's nice to see you again." Ryan looked happy and shook hands with Benjamin again.
Benjamin also recognized Ryan, "Do it well, this is my boss's property, I can't treat you badly," Benjamin said directly, and Ryan nodded quickly.
Returning to the living room, he quickly signed an agreement, but the amount became eight thousand pounds. Guo Yongren didn't care and agreed. Ryan breathed a sigh of relief. He had seen Benjamin's strength before. He didn't earn much at the minimum of eight thousand pounds.
, six thousand pounds is a loss of money. If it wasn’t Benjamin, then Guo Yongren would have to be blackmailed for at least five thousand pounds in the later period. In such an industry, no one can recruit him.
After the contract was settled, Ryan's people started to get busy. They brought a lot of instruments. Today they will definitely not be used for testing. It will take two days to test all the subjects. There is still a lot of data that needs to be analyzed in special experiments.
It is completed in the laboratory, so the results can be available within three days at the earliest.
Guo Yongren and Benjamin left one after another. They were both busy people and could not stay here forever. Guo Yongren did not go home, but went to the Tame River to play and rented a boat.
We went straight to the boat to enjoy lunch and other things, and we booked it for the whole day until six o'clock in the afternoon, which made the boat owner very happy.
Today is a rare good weather. I can see the sun and bask in the sun. Guo Yongren enjoys it for a while. There is red wine and fruit on the table next to him, which is very leisurely.
The Thame River is the famous "Mother" river in the UK. Also known as the River Thames, it originates from the Cotswold Hills in southwest England. It has a total length of 346 kilometers, running through the British capital London and 10 villages along the river.
There are many cities, with a drainage area of 13,000 square kilometers. The river widens downstream of London, forming an estuary with a width of 29 kilometers, and flows into the North Sea.
Upstream from London, there are many places of interest along the Thames, such as Eton, Oxford, Henley and Windsor. The mouth of the Thames is filled with busy British merchant ships, but the river upstream is famous for its static beauty.
The Thames Basin plays an important role in British history.
Originally, ships could only sail back and forth within a radius of 500 meters in Hanoi. This was their business rule for the sake of orderly competition. However, the chartered ships were an exception and could sail at will. The ship chartered by Guo Yongren looked like it was here.
It is quite famous, and many people greeted the captain along the way.
At noon, we were almost at the mouth of the sea. The captain, the owner of the boat, came over and said, "Sir, we are almost at the mouth of the sea. We can fish in the sea. The fresh fish tastes quite good. Do you want to try it?
"The captain asked.
"Really? I don't know about this. You can arrange it. As long as the taste is good, your tip is indispensable." Guo Yongren said with a smile. If you have money, you have to enjoy life. Although I said it when chartering the boat, all costs are included.
, but don’t forget, this is London, and tipping is popular.
