Square.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leading the group was an elderly man in a white Mandarin jacket and black lantern pants, wearing a pair of old cloth shoes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Master Song Kai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By his side, there followed a dignified middle-aged man with a somewhat authoritative demeanor; he was District Chief Wu Qibing, who had also been a student of Master Song Kai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, half a step behind him, followed Shang Wenshu and Wang Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, both the scholarly Shang Wenshu and the usually domineering Wang Ye had faces full of obliging smiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last month, Master Song Kai had visited with the mayor and stopped by here incidentally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, the master did not have a particularly good impression of this project.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since then, Shang Wenshu had been racking his brains, trying to figure out how to make the old gentleman change his view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, today, the master had taken the initiative to come and have a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of Master Song Kai, he was renowned throughout Tiannan, and indeed the nation at large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With widespread disciples in both business and politics, he was an individual with significant influence!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one could manage to have him at the opening ceremony, it would undoubtedly raise the project’s profile by several levels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the old gentleman had a rule: he never participated in the ribbon-cutting ceremonies of openings, not even for the projects he had personally designed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the leaders of local enterprises, Shang Wenshu and Wang Ye could not overemphasize the importance of this master-level figure and were even willing to push aside busy meetings and put down their disputes to keep him company, fearing any slip-ups!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The significance of the master was self-evident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Master Song Kai walked with his hands behind his back, looking around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A commercial square project had to be scrutinized not only for its architecture and interior but also for the design of the external square space and traffic organization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From hard paving to softscape environments, details such as plants, fountains, water features, and functional amenities like rest areas, all impacted the heights that the project could achieve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the master’s work, his painstaking effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, as the master inspected and murmured to himself, he looked for highlights as if this project was not one of his designs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Upon closer examination, some designs by that young lad are indeed ingenious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I rejected them; perhaps I’m the outdated one,” the old man muttered to himself, comparing the actual scene before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shang Wenshu wore a slight smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the master’s last visit, the project had tightened up on details, and many areas had been reworked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, they were determined to satisfy the master!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the master were pleased, perhaps they could broach the topic of a guest of honor at the opening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he agreed, Treles Square’s attention would undoubtedly become the number one in Tiannan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a smile on his face, Wang Ye also wanted to leave a good impression in front of Master Song Kai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I made a point of instructing Li Mingtong to sweep through the project in advance, to avoid anything that might annoy the master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the hoarding at the entrance has been changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not bad, not bad, Mingtong is quite efficient,” Wang Ye commented with satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, it must be a joyful occasion for both guests and hosts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, Master Song Kai gestured and framed scenes with his fingers, muttering, “Leaving white space here is good, this treatment is truly clever.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Teacher,” District Chief Wu Qibing couldn’t help but smile, “What are you murmuring about to yourself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You look so happy; tell us about it, too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coming back to his senses, Master Song Kai curled his lips at his student, “All you think about are GDP, investment returns, cash flow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How would you understand the design!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>District Chief Wu laughed heartily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His teacher was still the same, and hadn’t changed a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group continued on their tour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they reached a landscaped spot currently under construction, the enthusiastic Master Song Kai suddenly frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, a conspicuously out-of-place section of hoarding appeared, glaringly noticeable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brand new, with a red background and glistening golden characters, the image featured what seemed to be a pseudo-successful person exuding joy, arrogantly giving two thumbs up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The copy on the picture was even more direct and crude—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Make money, money, money!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once I get a store, Tiannan is mine!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wealth!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gold stores!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Commercial peak, endless prospects, wealth for three generations!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The coarsest, most direct, and least design-inspired enclosure had just jarringly appeared here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made anyone without the slightest design talent feel it was unbearably tacky!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On this square ripe with art and culture, it was like plastering thick foundation on a delicate girl and painting her lips a garish red—vulgarity to the extreme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the worst part was, it was newly installed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The faces of Shang Wenshu and Wang Ye both changed in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last time, Master Song Kai flew into a rage over a lack of detail and crass promotion—stemming from a mere enclosure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, why had such an enclosure appeared—one even cruder than the last?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an absolute eyesore!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shang Wenshu couldn’t help but glance at Wang Ye, his first thought being that Wang Ye had sabotaged it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Wang Ye was even more surprised than him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What a strong commercial vibe this enclosure has,” Song Kai commented indifferently, then turned and headed into the square.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s going on, didn’t you say it was improved?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t you know?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The teacher hates this!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>District Chief Wu Qibing glanced at the enclosure and also frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t that a commercial project couldn’t showcase commercial elements, but this was just too low-quality, too vulgar!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>District Chief Wu couldn’t even find the words to describe it—he felt even the outskirts would hardly see such a thing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>District Chief Wu exhaled heavily and hurried after his teacher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What in the world are Chen Daya and Li Mingtong doing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is this monstrosity!” Shang Wenshu couldn’t help but mutter angrily under his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Ye’s expression darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had called Li Mingtong the night before, and now seeing this newly installed enclosure, it was practically a slap in his face!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two leaders, huffing and puffing, raced to the marketing center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Chen Daya and Li Mingtong were not accompanying the leaders—not out of reluctance but because Master Song Kai had cautioned against having project staff accompany them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were busy preparing the venue and communicating with the managers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They heard that this time, Master Song Kai wanted to have a “casual chat” with the staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two managers, afraid of offending the old man, were busy instructing their superiors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they were occupied, a young employee ran over, looking flustered and out of breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s happened!” Chen Daya exclaimed when he saw it was an employee that had followed the leaders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He urged for an answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not, not good,” the employee said, panting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master Song Kai, District Chief Wu, they arrived at ‘Four Seasons Flower Island’ scenic spot and saw the enclosure outside!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What about the enclosure?” Chen Daya asked, surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He remembered they had replaced it with one featuring a scenic view, which seemed quite fitting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The leaders said the new enclosure is vulgar, and the master is unhappy,” the young employee couldn’t help but swallow hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t know what expression the master had, but the angry faces of Shang and Wang were clear to him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“New?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does it look like?!” Chen Daya suddenly felt uneasy and couldn’t help but look at Li Mingtong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mingtong also frowned deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The day before yesterday, I organized a small meeting for investment promotion, there was supposed to be some sort of promotion, maybe it was them who replaced it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I even asked Bai Xiaosheng from the promotion department to check on it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s wrong?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is there a problem?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1349,"2026-06-05T17:42:23.583Z",1,"novelbin.me","88ec76eddd607047956e38438c18c33368997670de238200d7ce63ee91bae148","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-69","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-67",2500,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finheritance-of-two-trillion-cover.jpg"]
