Throughout the May Day holiday, Li Yulong was obviously not the only author who was crazily stimulated by the royalties displayed every day.
Most of the people on the list are working hard to write.
The virtuous cycle is multi-directional. The newly registered readers originally only followed it with free gold coins and no effort.
I didn’t expect to find one book, two books, and three books. Hey, they are all quite interesting!
I got hooked up as soon as I went back and forth.
Nowadays, the most exciting parts of the novel are listed for a fee, and they already have free coins. Naturally, they read more and more enthusiastically. On the contrary, they feel that they support the author, and they have a sense of belonging in their hearts.
The author's crazy updates gave them such a stimulus that even now that school has started, the website traffic has not dropped much.
This is a good start.
…
Wang Qinghe threw the report aside casually and said to Ding Wei: "Big boss, how are you? I'm doing a pretty good job."
Ding Wei couldn't help laughing.
"You are the real decision-maker. How do you arrange it? Let's just do whatever we want. Don't call me the big boss. I can't bear it."
A big boss like her who only makes blind ideas, in another situation, would be the product manager who is least loved by programmers.
But now when I come to the company again, I find that everyone is holding their chests and heads high, and they are particularly motivated. This is really the credit of Wang Qinghe.
Wang Qinghe is not humble either.
"What do you think of what I wrote? Did you see it?"
he asked suddenly.
Ding Wei was stunned for a moment, then laughed:
“Very good, worthy of the name.”
In fact...she hasn't followed the update for ten days because she is too busy.
But I have a dirty mind when it comes to writing, so I say this without any shame.
After all, if there were really no results, why would Wang Qinghe ask such a question?
Wang Qinghe is also quite satisfied with this answer.
…
His novels are indeed well written.
Although because this author is not very diligent, it has now fallen to eighth place in the rankings.
However, there is a gap between the thinking of adults and the students who are still in the ivory tower, and there is also a gap between successful people and people in ordinary fields, so even if the update is so bad, it will still remain in the top ten.
Wang Qinghe was quite proud of himself, and his eyebrows became vivid at this moment.
——Writing novels gave him a sense of accomplishment, to be honest, much more than managing such a company.
After all, this was not his first time managing a company, but it was truly unprecedented for him to rely on his pen to make a living.
oops!
He stretched out his hand to comb his hair, and suddenly saw himself beaming in the mirror, and quickly regained his composure.
low profile.
Literary people, of course, should pay attention to "having poetry and calligraphy in their belly", so that they can be restrained.
…
Ding Wei just came over to check on the situation. Since everything was on track and within plan, and Wang Qinghe's report on future development directions was still being written, she was fine.
At this moment, he picked up the car keys on the table and said, "I still have something to do, so let's go first."
"Wait a moment," Wang Qinghe looked at her suspiciously:
"It's rare for a big boss like you to come to the company. You don't care about which good authors the editor has recently discovered, nor what copyright intentions He cares about, but you just turn around and leave?"
Ding Wei couldn't laugh or cry.
"You are in charge of this, aren't you?"
She added: "I do want to care, but I'm afraid of causing trouble to you... I really don't understand these things."
I still know a little bit about it, but I can’t help it because I don’t have enough time.
"Besides, I was out to do some errands today and passed by here, so I stopped to take a look."
The focus is not on the company.
…
Wang Qinghe frowned.
how to say?
If the boss doesn't let go, he will feel shackled and unhappy.
But the boss gave me the full power and didn't care about anything, which made me feel a little empty again.
"What are you doing?"
Wang Qinghe is welcome.
Ding Wei sighed: "The decoration of one of my houses will be completed today. I'll go over and see what's going on."
"What house? Where is it?"
Wang Qinghe dug into the matter and found out that she was a persistent middle-aged woman who caught her husband cheating on her.
…
Ding Wei looked at Wang Qinghe, who had an extremely handsome face, and couldn't help but be speechless.
I really didn't expect him to be such a gossip.
But there’s nothing unspeakable——
"A house in the family courtyard of the work unit on Rongye Road."
Wang Qinghe frowned.
"Rongye Road? This place is quite far from your school. Why do you buy a house here?"
It was renovated so quickly, and it was clear that I wanted to live in it.
Ding Wei explained angrily:
"By chance, I bought a house because it was cheap. I'm going to renovate it and rent it out to others. I'll find an agent later and ask."
After thinking about it, I realized that the intermediary guy last time was pretty good, and I might as well have to work with him again.
…
"Pull him down."
Wang Qinghe said: "Who rents a house nowadays and consults an agency? Don't they all go to see the small advertisements themselves?"
"Let's go and have a look together."
Ding Wei:……
Oops, that seems to be the case indeed.
For residential rentals, not many agents are found these days.
But for her house, if she signs a contract with the agent according to her own ideas... it should be OK.
…
The unit community is some distance away from Ding Wei's school, but it's really close to Yunxiao Tower.
It takes less than fifteen minutes to drive there.
At this moment, the community is still empty. The old man watching the door is watching TV in the room. When the car comes in, he doesn't even look at anyone...
After all, there are no property fees.
Ding Wei was quite calm about this.
On the road in the community, you can occasionally see decoration materials trucks. In the empty building, the sound of jingling and rattling can be heard one after another, and there are many people who want to come to do the construction.
Lu Chengcheng stood at the door of the unit in her building.
…
Ding Wei got out of the car and without waiting for Lu Cheng to say anything, she asked, "It's quite hot, why don't you wait upstairs?"
It should be quite cool on the 16th floor with the windows open.
There is no shelter downstairs, the greenery has not grown at all, and there are very few shaded places. The weather in May is really too hot.
After not seeing each other for a while, Lu Cheng's face also turned dark.
Thinking about the decoration work, it is indeed quite hard work.
…
Lu Cheng laughed: "I asked everyone to clean up the house before finishing the work, and I'm just waiting for you to come and inspect it. If I go in now, won't it be dirty again?"
Ding Wei sighed.
Originally she should have said a few polite words, but with this attitude, she felt that the experience as a customer was very good, not inferior to some regular decoration companies.
So instead of saying anything, he just nodded.
"This is my friend Wang Qinghe. Let's take a look at the condition of the house together."
…
Lu Cheng looked at Wang Qinghe's young face, then looked at Ding Wei, and seemed to understand something. He quickly said enthusiastically:
"Come on, come on!"
"Classmate Wang, come and take a look."
Ding Wei couldn't help laughing.
Wang Qinghe is already in his thirties this year, and when he goes out he is called a classmate. He has a young face, which really gives him an advantage.
I just don't know if he would feel disrespected.
She was holding back her laughter in front of her. Wang Qinghe looked at Lu Cheng and Ding Wei, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
——This big boss, people obviously think that they are a couple, but she doesn’t know anything about it, she only knows how to have fun there...
I don’t know how the strings in my head grew.
——It’s also my fault that Wang Qinghe is too charming, I feel like a versatile girl.
Tsk.
He shook his head in annoyance.
…
But seeing that Ding Wei didn't know anything, Wang Qinghe raised the corners of his lips and didn't bother to clarify. He followed Lu Cheng into the elevator politely.
In the elevator, Lu Cheng continued to introduce.
"The materials used for you are all good, and the paint is also well-chosen. It is absolutely non-irritating...and use as little as possible..."
"...The basic framework is all done. Now you just need to wait for some furniture you want to choose to come in, and you can live in it at any time..."
He thought for a while, then took out a small notebook from his trouser pocket: "I have written down all the money I spent here, and there are receipts in the corresponding places. You can take them with you when you leave later."
Walk……"
Ding Wei nodded: "Okay."
She was so free and easy, which made Lu Cheng feel more at ease.
…
After leaving the elevator room, there was a man squatting at the door who was also wearing gray clothes. He looked slightly similar to Lu Cheng, but he was a few years older.
"This is my cousin's weekly diary."
Lu Cheng introduced.
"Because there is a shortage of people for decoration, I called them from my hometown. Don't worry, their craftsmanship is first-class. Even if they can't do any fancy work, if they can do it, the quality is absolutely guaranteed."
That's it.
Ding Wei doesn't need any fancy work, she just needs to be simple and elegant.
Lu Cheng's cousin is also a little shy now.
This was his first time meeting Ding Wei.
In fact, this is not their first time doing renovation, but it is really rare for the owner to be so caring that he only shows up once before the renovation and once when the work is finished.
Little did he know that as a college student, Ding Wei was more than five times as busy as an ordinary college student.
She couldn't even take care of her best friend Shanshan, let alone the decoration project, which she didn't care about at all.
She was already prepared in her heart.
Lu Cheng had also sketched out the drawings before. Now that he saw the real environment, he just kept nodding his head and seemed quite satisfied.
This made her cousin Zhou Ji, who had been secretly watching her, breathe a sigh of relief.
This was Wang Qinghe's first time seeing this simple yet comfortable decoration style, and he couldn't help but look at Lu Cheng.
"Your craftsmanship is pretty good."
Ignoring their guidance, I started walking from room to room.
Cousin Zhou Ji hesitated for a while and then followed. While Wang Qinghe was staring at the bare wooden bed, he quickly stepped forward to explain.
"Because this house will be rented to several people at the same time, a certain amount of space must be left in each room to store things."
As soon as he started talking, he became less nervous when it came to the areas he was good at.
"...We dug out the bottom of the bed and left two sliding doors at the head and end of the bed. If someone comes to live in the house, buy some storage boxes and stuff them inside with some large luggage. There will be space on both sides.
You can take it out at any time, which is very convenient.”
And the sliding door won't be obstructed by bedside tables or anything like that.
The track of the sliding door is of very good quality. Now Wang Qinghe feels it, it is smooth, smooth and silent. It is indeed a good craftsmanship.
No carelessness.
In particular, the edges of the bed have been polished smooth, and every imaginable detail has been taken into consideration.
Look at the wall on the other side.
The small house was divided into five bedrooms, and the original walls were hollowed out and turned into two-way cabinets.
There is a fine wire mesh in the middle of the cabinet, and it is stuffed with sound-insulating cotton to ensure sound insulation and safety, while also saving space.
In this day and age, it is unique for space utilization to reach such an extreme level.
But what Wang Qinghe saw was the ingenuity and the thoughtful color matching.
If there are people who have come from later generations, they will recognize right now that the colors in all the rooms are different styles of Morandi colors, which are both gentle and neutral, making people feel very comfortable, and at the same time improving the atmosphere.
style.
Speaking of this, Lu Cheng also burst into tears!
When Ding Wei gave him a rough drawing board, he still thought that big cities were different, with so many colors.
But when I actually went to each store and asked, I realized that this was all Ding Wei's own idea.
But he also knew how busy Ding Wei was with her homework, and he was too embarrassed to bother her at this moment, thinking about the other party's trust in him...
So he gritted his teeth.
He visited five building materials markets, found the source manufacturers, and skilled workers in this field, and asked others to adjust the colors.
Fortunately, I have never mixed this color system before. The other colors are still very rich. What is missing is the effort.
Originally, if someone had a business sense, this color card could be sold for some money...
However, in today’s home decoration, there is no gorgeous TV background wall, no colorful flashing lights...
That's simply not classy.
So much so that such high-end colors only exist in Lu Cheng's small notebook.
Of course, at this time, he would never have imagined that when communicating with other customers about his intentions later, it would be this unique experience of color mixing that would give him an advantage over others.
But everyone may have the opportunity, but ordinary decoration workers cannot do this kind of work.
…
Lu Cheng was pointing to the locations one by one and explaining to Ding Wei in detail what size to buy if you buy furniture.
He had a watch in hand, but Ding Wei probably didn't understand it, so he had to explain it again.
At this time, Wang Qinghe slowly walked out.
"Master Lu, right?"
He stretched out his hand to Lu Cheng in front of him.
Lu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly rubbed his palms on his trouser legs, then stretched them out.
One black hand and one white hand clasped together. In fact, the age difference between the two was only a few years ago, but Wang Qinghe relied on his unique face to forcefully increase the gap to ten years.
Wang Qinghe laughed.
"Master Lu, I value your craftsmanship very much. I don't know if I have time in the future. I still have a house there, so I'll take the time to decorate it."
His attitude is solemn.
The tone seemed so casual.
It’s like telling people: Take the time to sweep the floor for me...
It is an attitude.
Lu Cheng was stunned for a while, until he saw the smiling expression of his cousin behind Wang Qinghe, and then he nodded quickly.
"No problem, no problem."
Forehead……
He reacted immediately and said sheepishly:
"Are you in a hurry? I have taken over the decoration work of two more companies here. It will take at least a month before I can arrange for you to start doing it."
Renovation is not about doing whatever you want. There is always some time to wait between each procedure.
As long as the time is arranged well, there is no problem with three companies at the same time.
But firstly, Lu Cheng didn't have that many manpower, and secondly, he had just taken over the work independently, so he must strive for excellence and perfection.
Therefore, as long as there is a slight possibility that there is no guarantee, he will not make a promise easily.
Just like what Pearl said about selling steamed buns, even if you don't make money with this order, you can't ruin your reputation.
Once your reputation is bad, you can't hide it in the future, and others are not fools.
…
——Yes, Pearl’s steamed buns have already opened up the market.
Nowadays, it is quite famous in several communities. During the peak period, you still have to queue up!
Her next goal is to find a small shop and hire a few more employees to make the bun business bigger and stronger.
The couple talked about what they had done today and what they had in mind every night. They integrated into each other and did not feel alienated at all.
Therefore, many of Lu Cheng's ideas are shared by the couple.
…
Wang Qinghe raised his eyebrows.
He shook his head and said:
"It doesn't matter, I'm not waiting to live in that house."
"Actually, I haven't remembered where I am yet. Leave me your phone number and I'll send you the address later."
After thinking for a while, he said: "Oh, the key should be at the property management, but I didn't get it at all. After you go, I'll call the property management and you can take the key."
Lu Cheng:……
Cousin Zhou Diary:......
Are all the people in this imperial capital so wealthy?
First, a little girl didn’t care at all about decorating her house, as if the tens of thousands of dollars she spent were nothing.
The same young man again, he can forget where the house is, this and this...
Just thinking about it, the money earned from this transaction seemed to have been poured with cold water, and I no longer felt proud.
…
Wang Qinghe turned around again and suddenly said to Ding Wei: "Do you plan to rent this house to different people as a group rental?"
"Um."
Ding Wei nodded.
“Originally I wanted to rent it as a whole, but then I thought it might not be more cost-effective than renting it in a group, so I decided to rent it in a group instead.”
"There are so many problems with group rentals, and you are not afraid of trouble."
Wang Qinghe shook his head.
Ding Wei laughed: "I'm going to entrust it to an intermediary at a certain price. No matter how much rent they charge, I only need that amount and leave the rest to them."
In fact, in later generations, this is what some rental industries did, but now the direction has changed.
This is one way.
Wang Qinghe nodded and then said:
"Then why bother looking for an agent? Just build and sell it yourself. How much do you plan to rent this house for a month?"
…
ah?
Ding Wei was stunned for a while and then said: "Depending on the room, it's about 600-1,000 per month."
She doesn't know exactly what's going on in this area.
The furniture is not fully furnished yet.
Wang Qinghe waved his hand casually:
"Just press one thousand."
"For the financial account, you take the time to arrange all the furniture and appliances, and try to ask our company's employees to move in at the end of the month."
"Let me think about it..."
He looked around: "Your place is in a good location, has a good environment, and is newly renovated..."
"Wait a moment!"
Ding Wei quickly stopped his plan: "The newly renovated house will have to dry out for at least two months."
It is not popular these days to talk about the harmful effects of formaldehyde, but it is generally accepted that the house needs to be aired after it is installed.
In fact, this time is not necessarily certain.
But now in the summer, she doesn't have anything with strong smells here, and the decoration cost is quite real, so if the temperature is high and the wind blows, two months should be enough.
Wang Qinghe frowned.
"It's so troublesome..."
"Okay, anyway, the university only has a holiday in July. Before then, let them live in the dormitory. They will be tired from commuting every day. When the time comes, we can arrange for five programmers to come in. Wouldn't this be a complete success?"
Ding Wei:……
"But these five rooms are of different sizes and have different treatment! How to arrange five programmers?"
Don't worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality.
Wang Qinghe gave her a puzzled look:
"Wouldn't it be enough to give those with poor conditions a housing subsidy of 1,200 yuan?"
Ding Wei:……
OK.
If her house is really listed with an agency, the best room may not be rented out for $1,000, but now they all stick to this...
She looked at Wang Qinghe warily: "Even if you give me this rent, I won't let go and let the editor give you more recommendations."
In fact, there are already a lot of recommendation slots for the top ten works. Every remaining small recommendation slot is planned and cannot be crammed in so casually.
Wang Qinghe snorted coldly.
"I have the strength to use you to do this."
He added: "The contract has to be signed for two years. The rent will remain at this level within two years, and the rent can be increased after two years."
This way it will be much easier to talk about.
After all, house prices are still rising every day.
Ding Wei nodded: "That's okay."
I had exactly two months to buy furniture and appliances, so I wasn’t in such a hurry.
but……
Ah, just thinking about such trivial things gives me a headache.
"Brother Lu, if you have time then, the furniture and appliances will come in. Please watch them install them."
The job Lu Chengxin took should also be from this community, so it should be okay to take a look.
Ding Wei has already decided to give a big red envelope.
"I've been a little busy lately, so I probably won't come here as often as before."
…
Lu Cheng nodded: "Okay."
After thinking for a while, he said: "If I see something suitable in the furniture store, I will tell you about it. Then you can arrange a day for us to purchase it together."
In this way, it will naturally save more time.
Ding Wei didn't disagree.
At this moment, she felt Lu Cheng's progress.
Compared to what it was before, think about the two months it took to renovate his own house. He has already received the work of three more houses, including Wang Qinghe's house...
Maybe the decoration team can really grow in size.
The money I lent out with good intentions now seems like it can really change someone's destiny!
