~8 min read 1,431 words

"Want to drink some?" An Jing actually brought two bottles of Jiang Xiaobai.

Zhou Andong looked at An Congwen, "Drink some?"

An Congwen said: "Then drink some?"

"Drink!" Zhou Andong opened the two bottles of wine, handed one to An Congwen, "The main body of the sky garden needs to use steel structure, is there any difficulty in this?"

An Congwen smiled: "The Shenzhen Development Center Building was completed this year, with a main height of 146 meters, all of which is steel structure. What is your sky garden?"

Zhou Andong also smiled: "Uncle, thank you for your help and support."

An Congwen said: "This is a big project. Without a year, the design drawings won't come out. You have to be mentally prepared."

Zhou Andong pondered for a moment: "Can it be designed in parts? That is, design the residential part first, this is more urgent."

An Congwen nodded: "This is no problem, as long as the overall style is determined."

After eating, the two chatted for another afternoon. An Jing and Zhou Anqin didn't leave either, staying in the room to accompany them, listening to their chat with great interest. And An Jing looked at Zhou Andong with eyes that flashed with brilliance from time to time.

In the evening, the four of them ate at the hotel restaurant and didn't drink.

After eating, An Jing and Zhou Anqin returned to their room to shower and change clothes.

An Congwen came to Zhou Andong's room. There was no serious business anymore, and the two chatted about everything under the sun while drinking tea. Later, when they talked about Jiangzhou's history and culture, Zhou Andong was eloquent.

An Congwen didn't expect Zhou Andong to be so knowledgeable, able to chat about anything under the sun. Especially his thorough research on Jiangzhou's history, even some folk wild history, he could say one, two, three.

In his heart, he couldn't help but feel sorry for his daughter. Such a talented young man was snatched away by that girl from the Jian family, and his own daughter arrived a step late.

The two were chatting happily when the door was knocked on with a "bang bang." Zhou Andong said strangely: "Why did Gu Bing come at this time?"

His voice had just fallen when he heard Zhou Anqin shouting outside: "Brother, open the door quickly... bang bang bang... Brother!"

Zhou Andong's face changed, and he hurriedly stood up to open the door, thinking something had happened: "What's wrong?"

An Jing also ran out from the next room and said excitedly: "Quick, open the TV quickly, watch CCTV Channel 1!"

Zhou Andong was stunned. An Jing pushed him away, ran into the room, found the remote control, turned on the TV, and changed the channel.

"I fuck!" Zhou Andong widened his eyes, looking at the TV screen, feeling incredible. ===== CHAPTER 377 =====

He opened the window and stood before it; the breeze brushed against his face, making him shiver involuntarily.

An autumn rain had fallen last night, and the weather in Fengjing had become quite cool, with a chill in the wind.

"Each autumn rain brings more cold; the season of falling leaves has arrived once again."

"Pop, pop, pop..."

The office door was knocked on lightly, and Gong Jimin said without turning his head, "Come in!"

The secretary pushed the door open cautiously: "Leader, the No. 2 Courtyard office has notified that there is a class meeting at ten o'clock."

Gong Jimin turned around slowly and glanced at the quartz clock on the wall; it was already nearly nine-thirty. Being in such a rush to find him for a class meeting—had something happened?

Gong Jimin did not rush to leave; instead, he sat down to finish the tea in his cup before rising to head out.

The meeting lasted less than an hour, and Gong Jimin returned with a livid face, then grabbed the teacup from his desk and smashed it fiercely onto the floor.

"Bang!"

The teacup shattered into pieces, scaring the secretary standing at the door so much that they dared not move.

"Hoo!" Gong Jimin took several deep breaths in succession before he managed to calm himself down.

He truly hadn't expected that a foreign company would actually want to acquire Yuxi Real Estate, and this class meeting was clearly held specifically for him; it could be said that he had been caught off guard and was forced to cut off a large piece of meat.

He was truly unwilling, but if he didn't compromise, this cooked duck that was Yuxi Real Estate would really fly away. However, the result was finally good; the auction of Yuxi Real Estate could still proceed.

Zhou Andong had just gotten up when the room's telephone rang; he picked it up and heard Deng Zhangli's voice.

"Jiangzhou Winery has already submitted the materials for the Yuxi Real Estate auction. How are your preparations coming along? Is there any problem with the funds?"

Zhou Andong said: "Any kind of problem could happen on my end, but when it comes to money, there won't be any problems."

Deng Zhangli said with a smile: "Alright, it was redundant for me to ask. Get ready to participate in the auction."

Zhou Andong said: "Then that's that."

After speaking, he hung up the phone. After washing up, he went to find An Congwen. The two of them ate first, then took a taxi to Qiaonan to survey the terrain.

An Congwen held his camera, taking photos non-stop, recording the special topography and terrain. He didn't even know how many rolls of film he had changed, and they wandered around until evening.

Returning to the hotel, Zhou Andong entered his room and took a shower first.

Although it was already autumn, the temperature at noon was still very high, and having wandered around Qiaonan for most of the day, he was covered in dust and dirt.

After Zhou Andong came out from his shower, he saw that An Jing and Zhou Anqin had also returned.

"Why did you two come back so early?"

An Jing said: "My old man is leaving tomorrow; I have to come back to keep him company."

"That's true!" Zhou Andong nodded with a smile, "Let's go, let's go eat first."

"Where are we eating?" An Jing asked.

Zhou Andong said: "It's up to you."

An Jing thought for a moment, then shook her head: "I don't know where to eat either."

An Congwen said with a smile: "Then we won't go anywhere; we'll just have a bite at the winery's restaurant."

"That works too!" Zhou Andong said: "After wandering around Qiaonan for most of the day, I'm a bit tired. Let's just eat at the hotel restaurant. Some of the signature dishes here are still decent."

"Then what are we waiting for?" An Congwen was like a child, waving his hand, "Let's go."

The four of them ate something at the hotel restaurant and didn't drink any alcohol.

After the meal, An Jing and Zhou Anqin returned to their room to shower and change clothes.

An Congwen came to Zhou Andong's room; there was nothing serious to do, so the two of them drank tea and chatted about everything under the sun. Later, when they talked about the history and culture of Jiangzhou, Zhou Andong spoke with great eloquence.

An Congwen hadn't expected Zhou Andong to be so knowledgeable, able to chat about anything under the sun. Especially regarding his research into Jiangzhou's history, which was extremely thorough; even some folk anecdotes could be explained in detail.

He couldn't help but feel a pity for his own daughter; such a talented young man had been snatched up by that girl from the Jian family, and his own daughter had arrived a step too late.

The two were chatting happily when the door was knocked on with a bang-bang. Zhou Andong said strangely: "Why did Gu Bing come at this time?"

His words had just fallen when he heard Zhou Anqin shouting outside: "Brother, open the door quickly... bang bang bang... Brother!"

Zhou Andong's expression changed, and he hurriedly got up to open the door, thinking something had happened: "What's wrong?"

An Jing also ran out from the room next door, saying excitedly: "Quick, turn on the TV quickly, watch CCTV Channel 1!"

Zhou Andong was stunned. An Jing pushed him aside, ran into the room, found the remote control, turned on the TV, and changed the channel.

"Holy crap!" Zhou Andong widened his eyes, looking at the TV screen with an expression of disbelief.
