My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 530 I've eaten pork, and I've seen pigs run.
So we really need to get the rooftop garden done as soon as possible.

We had just sat down and started talking about how Dawa's sixth sister had given birth to a son, and how Yu Songhai was already holding a position in the provincial capital, when the technicians from the infrastructure team came over with the blueprints.

Qin Yuye, the fashion designer, relied solely on his aesthetic sense to create a rough sketch.

We need to draw up detailed construction drawings based on the sketches to ensure that the construction workers can complete the work accurately in the end.

The precise and fluid lines drawn by the drawing pen on tracing paper are full of industrial aesthetics.

Therefore, the conscientious technicians only care about every architectural detail and don't see what the boss is doing.

Wei Dong immediately asked Shi Tou to get the picture book from his car, spread it out on the table to discuss it, and also introduced to Dawa that this kind of building was being built so that they could stay when they came.

Actually, it's about clearly explaining the purpose of this building to the technicians.

Kedawa felt that this was for us, that the newly built house was spacious and bright!

They also craned their necks to look.

The technician explained that the catalog he borrowed from Lao Zhang showed Hui-style architecture, with white walls, blue tiles, and horse-head gables. With this specific information, they knew what to do.

Wei Dong was then instructed to create a layout that was both staggered and orderly, giving it the feel of a village.

In short, just follow the instructions in the picture.

Then he described: "I bought a foreign architectural catalog today, it's three fingers thick, with lots of beautiful building exteriors. I don't think it's too difficult, so you guys can try it out. Stone, go to the car and get the heaviest one for me. Make a few different designs, and then build it... damn!"

Wei Dong was suddenly stunned. The thickest collection of works by the North American Institute of Architects contained a variety of urban development plans.

What's with that foreign-related community in Shanghai? They just copied it!
Speaking of these foreign materials, they were previously considered poisonous weeds of capitalism, even carrying serious criticisms that corrupted beliefs, so they were not easy to come by.

Even many architectural design departments in Shanghai probably didn't have the opportunity to get in touch with them.

Sure enough, when the beautifully illustrated book was brought over, a group of technicians almost pushed Dong Xueqing and her colleagues aside.

Shen Cuiyue was about to lose her temper, but Qin Yuye understood and pulled her along, saying, "Let's go have a couple of drinks."

Dong Xueqing suddenly remembered, "Oh, I brought you two fashion magazines. I also bought one of those...hehe."

Hong Kong girls are just baffling. Fashion magazines are everywhere, so what's so special about them? As for nude photography... I look in the mirror every day.

But they still squeezed into the van to see what was so special.

The woman was stunned. This was even more immoral than our honey trap schemes!
This made things lively on Wei Dong's side.

Fortunately, he can ask that smoking is not allowed on his own turf, so as to prevent the child from inhaling secondhand smoke.

These guys, who are always smoking, covered their mouths tightly to prevent drool from spilling out.

The city's design institutes might have access to some external information, but the infrastructure teams in the mountains really don't.

It includes aerial views, hand-drawn sketches, and photos of various buildings and even interior shots, showcasing some of the most beautiful results of North America's massive infrastructure development in the 1960s and 70s.

While some of them certainly reflected the ostentatious displays of nouveau riche, others genuinely resembled later mid-to-high-end residential communities in China—they were copied.

So he immediately started scribbling on the draft paper, emphasizing that he should compile this building catalog, select ten buildings that are not difficult to construct and have outstanding appearance to make into standard plans, and build them all over the country: "Haha, the Pudong X Building can be selected, then the Pingjing Automobile Building, the Jinling Computer Building, Shangzhou... Dawa, should you build one in your plateau too? I remember that there are no tall buildings in the provincial capital, let's build one?"

Unexpectedly, Dawa shook his head: "No way. No house in the entire provincial capital can be taller than the palace. People can only see the palace from anywhere."

Wei Dong suddenly understood, but he didn't comment.

Then Dawa said, "But seven or eight stories is a building too, right? I want to learn that."

Wei Dong's eyes lit up: "Great! Learn this with us, and you'll have a bright future in both the provincial capital and the county!"

The last time Wei Dong worked on the grandstand of the racecourse in the border county, he witnessed the low efficiency of working on the plateau. This was due to both the increased difficulty of construction in the plateau region and the backwardness of construction technology.

For an infrastructure team that can build a cement plant on its own, this is basically the highest level of construction technology in China.

The key is that Dawa can drive the real estate market on the plateau, which would be a huge support for Songhai.

The status that Weidong has gained in dialogue and exchange in Shangzhou, Jiangzhou, and even Beijing and Shanghai is largely due to real estate.

In an industry with high entry barriers, requiring at least hundreds of thousands or millions of yuan in initial construction capital, it's extremely rare to find someone like Wei Dong who dares to build, knows how to build, and ultimately doesn't make a fortune from it.

trustworthy.

They are also trustworthy to Dawa and his group.

After nodding in agreement, Dawa pulled Wei Dong aside to tell him his other purpose for coming out: to buy a car.

Before New Year's Day, Chi Shiming took the eldest daughter of Uncle De's family on a trip to the plateau, accompanied by his entourage, guards, and assistants. They drove a Toyota Land Cruiser and a Mitsubishi Pajero. In the end, they flew back and left the cars with Yu Songhai.

The world's top-of-the-line, durable off-road vehicles indeed showed a huge advantage at high altitudes.

They came down in three 212s each, carrying a lot of gold and other valuables. Their goal was to buy as many cars as possible to take back with them, and they could ask for more money if needed.

The local tycoons on the plateau have plenty of money!
Their economic situation is a dual-track system, unlike that of the mainland.

Wei Dong showed him the scale of the gold bars, and then quickly ordered Shi Tou to direct the three 212s to drive into the second-level, two-story warehouse.

The thought flashed through my mind: what if we sold this batch of gold to Citibank and bought Cherokees to drive on the plateau? The import price could probably buy dozens or even hundreds of those cars.

In short, what others might see as an opportunity to make a killing was actually Wei Dong's concern: how to get more for less. So, while Lao Geng was returning late and had heard that they had obtained foreign information, he entrusted Dawa to them and took the opportunity to go see the Cherokee that had been brought back from Beijing.

Anyway, Wei Dong didn't go to Pingjing. After bringing it back, disassembling it, making spare parts, and filing it, it was reassembled and temporarily left in Jiangzhou for Lao Geng to use. It will be transported again when he goes there next time.

Dawa said he had seen one or two of these cars in the provincial capital, but they were not as durable as Toyotas or Mitsubishis. The driver also complained that the car was worth repairing.

Once Wei Dong has been there, he'll understand that the main problem is the poor environmental conditions; people often jump around on unpaved roads.

These drivers on the plateau drive recklessly, so the simple and sturdy 212 is actually easier to maintain.

In short, just treat it like a broken game that needs patching all the time.

Toyota and Mitsubishi truly opened up a new world for us.

Turns out there really are cars that don't require constant repairs.

So Wei Dong could only say he would think about it, without even boasting that he was the vice president of the Cherokee joint venture: "How long do you plan to stay?"

Dawa replied matter-of-factly, "However long you think I can stay, that's how long."

Then let them stay put. Wei Dong was figuring out where to arrange for them to sleep, so he asked Shi Tou to find Shen Lao San to come over and arrange IC cards for these people to eat. Anyway, a few more pairs of chopsticks won't make a difference, so they can eat whatever they want.

As a result, Shen Laosan said excitedly, "It's settled. We'll lend them our room and Xiao Qin's room, and we'll move in with you for a while."

Let Weidong?

Shen Cuiyue leaned closer mysteriously: "I underestimated Xiao Dong. He said there were two empty rooms in the house. Since this place is so important, he should vacate our room and wait to move into the new house. He's very considerate and knows to make up for it for the master."

Wei Dong spat out loudly.

Unexpectedly, Xiaodie also spat out!

This immediately made Wei Dong burst into laughter, and he kept bowing his head to amuse himself.

But at least this is the best solution right now.

The two existing two-bedroom apartments will be given to Dawa and his family to live in. We'll take them there and explain things to them. We'll talk about it again when they go to "work" at the factory tomorrow morning.

Then, together with Qin Yuye's guards, they filled two carts with boxes. Shen Cuiyue even secretly carried two small leather suitcases to Wei Dong's car.

They were clearly gold bars brought back from the plateau earlier, along with decorations made of agate, amber, turquoise, and the like, which later seemed to be very valuable.

If Wei Dong can come to terms with it, then he can vacate his own home for the lady and move to the company.

Hearing this, Dong Xueqing felt a little regretful; what a lovely time for the two of them!

How could I have been so bewitched as to free it up?

As Wei Dong drove, he tried his best to suppress his laughter. He could roughly guess who had provoked this outcome, and it seemed that Feng Chu had taken the initiative to invite him.

As expected, Qin Yuye and Shen Cuiyue were filled with curiosity as soon as they turned into the hospital dormitory area. So this is where you've hidden your little home.

Then he went down the stairs to the room and wandered around looking around.

They even expressed their disapproval of the rather illogical layout of the three-bedroom apartment.

After having Weidong help carry the boxes upstairs, he made an excuse that there was no good parking downstairs for two cars, and drove the van back to the office building to sleep.

Just like during his time in Shangzhou, he slept in the construction site dormitory of the Third Battalion Commander.

There is absolutely no such thing as showing off by sleeping amidst a hundred flowers.

This is a damn public opinion noose around the issue of conduct.

Anyone who has worked in an office knows that as long as you're not afraid of being targeted, you can lie low and not get fired even if you yell at your boss every day. But if it involves things like visiting brothels or drunk driving, you're completely finished.

He reacted reflexively.

Fengchu, pouting, decided to move in with them tomorrow.

Shen Laosan showed no remorse for taking over Qin Yuye's place. He was quite satisfied and shared the bedroom with her, deciding to make do until they moved out.

Actually, when Rang Weidong went to the office, he took the opportunity to make another arrangement for the renovation work on the upper floors.

In 30 or 40 years, the FAST telescope will not only be able to discern the direction of travel, but also have a general sense of the aesthetics of these buildings, decorations, and clothing.

At least when he and Zhang Lanzhi stayed at that so-called No. 1 Hotel in the South, they didn't think the interior was very good.

Even if he had never stayed in a hotel in his past life, he had at least seen pigs run.

In reality, the quiet yet upscale budget hotel model is the most suitable for the positioning of business suites.

There were many shell companies these days, because almost everyone in the country started from scratch in the last two years.

Many small companies that don't yet have capital can only keep all their assets in their wallets.

However, this will select the most capable gold-plated bags from across the country.

Those are the rough gems that may develop into large companies in the future.
