Chapter 254: Want land to walk the panda

~9 min read 1,726 words

Lin Feng pulled open the door and walked out.

Seeing Lin Feng come out, Xiang Mei wore a look of surprise.

He had been inside for less than half an hour.

She had been waiting outside for an hour; if Lin Feng didn't come out, she was ready to leave.

As it turned out, Lin Feng spent the night inside.

"Mr. Lin, you..."

Xiang Mei didn't know what to say for a moment.

Because she still didn't know what had happened inside.

"Hmm!"

Lin Feng nodded at Xiang Mei and then left.

Seeing Lin Feng looking happy, Xiang Mei breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

She didn't know why Lin Feng was happy; it was because he could buy this Sihe Courtyard.

In her mind she imagined how to furnish this residence.

Upon seeing Zhao Yuwan, Lin Feng had a sudden idea.

Since it's an ancient-style building, why not let Han Xiang take the lead?

Once this place is repaired, we'll have her move in to live here.

As Han Xiang's fame grows, living in that residential area is no longer suitable.

When Lin Feng left the Sihe Courtyard, Xiang Mei had already entered the room where Zhao Yuwan was.

Zhao Yuwan's face was flushed.

The dishes on the table looked untouched.

Half of a bottle of fine baijiu was gone.

"What's wrong?"

Xiang Mei picked up a stool and sat down beside Zhao Yuwan.

Zhao Yuwan had drunk half a bottle of baijiu and her head felt dizzy.

However, she was still conscious.

Zhao Yuwan chuckled and said, "He told me to drink; for each cup I get a reward. I drank the first cup, thanking him for agreeing to let me play a maid."

"The second cup, he said he'd give me better resources. The third cup, this..."

Saying this, Zhao Yuwan took out a business card from the bag on the table.

Xiang Mei almost snatched the business card from Zhao Yuwan's hand.

It only had Lin Feng's name and phone number printed on it.

This phone number wasn't the one obtained from Wang Qing.

"Then what?"

Xiang Mei asked again.

More than half a bottle of baijiu, at least six or seven taels gone.

The cups are small; three cups amount to little more than one tael.

Where did the rest of the liquor go?

Lin Feng had no smell of alcohol on him.

Looking at Zhao Yuwan's current state, it's obvious without guessing.

"Then... I just held the bottle and drank! He said I was straightforward and would look out for me. After saying that, he just... left."

Xiang Mei laughed happily, "Now you've made it! I don't know how you got such good luck!"

At this moment, the alcohol hit Zhao Yuwan, and she slumped onto the table, muttering that Lin Feng looked down on her and such.

Xiang Mei slipped the business card back into Zhao Yuwan's bag.

This was given to Zhao Yuwan by Lin Feng; it has nothing to do with her.

After so many years as an agent, she'd never seen someone like Lin Feng who would get a person drunk and then run off.

Even this cat has times when it doesn't eat fish!?

Xiang Mei simply couldn't understand Lin Feng.

Lin Feng came over this time just to experience what it feels like to be a potential person.

Zhao Yuwan drank half a bottle of baijiu, and Lin Feng promised to look out for her?

This isn't Lin Feng's style.

There's no free lunch in this world.

If you want something, you must pay the corresponding price.

December 20.

Thursday.

Yanjing started snowing again.

Liu Cangyun got up early in the morning, drove to Lin Feng's residence.

Starting today, as Lin Feng's life assistant, she will begin work.

Hearing the doorbell ring, Lin Feng got up and saw it was only eight in the morning.

Opening the door, he saw Liu Cangyun with snowflakes on her hair, holding a bag of breakfast.

"Come in quickly, it's cold outside."

Lin Feng immediately stepped aside.

After Liu Cangyun entered the house, she placed the breakfast on the table and said, "I guessed you hadn't had breakfast, so I bought it outside."

Lin Feng hadn't washed up yet.

He rinsed his mouth with water and then sat down to eat breakfast.

Liu Cangyun began tidying up for Lin Feng.

She didn't know what a life assistant was like.

So she thought about it all night and finally formed her own understanding.

It was just staying by Lin Feng's side, doing work like a nanny and secretary.

The room was very clean; the floor didn't even need mopping.

She then went into the bedroom and folded the quilt.

Then she went into the bathroom.

In the bathroom were the underwear and pants Lin Feng had taken off the previous night.

She didn't mind and helped Lin Feng wash them.

"How come there's an alcohol smell on these shorts?"

Liu Cangyun widened her eyes, picked them up, and brought them close to her nose.

Indeed, her sense of smell was correct.

Strange!

But she didn't think much more about it.

It took her a dozen or so minutes to wash them, and then she hung them out to dry on the balcony.

After finishing those chores, Lin Feng had already finished his breakfast.

Returning to the room and seeing the quilt already folded, Lin Feng, who had originally wanted to catch a little more sleep, gave up.

After washing up, he told Liu Cangyun, "This morning we'll go to the Dongzhimen area; I took a liking to a Sihe Courtyard last night and have already settled things with the owner."

"I'll bring you there today, and the remaining matters will be left for you to handle."

"Okay, boss!"

Liu Cangyun nodded.

Lin Feng pinched her rosy little cheek and said, "We're not just boss and employee; I'm also your man!"

"Yes! Instructor!"

Liu Cangyun said it reflexively.

Liu Cangyun drove Lin Feng's Porsche and soon arrived near Dongzhimen.

Entering the mansion from last night, Lin Zhenbei was already waiting.

The two sat down and chatted for a while, then Lin Feng took Liu Cangyun and left.

Buying the house, and it being a Sihe Courtyard worth ten billion yuan, the procedures were somewhat complicated.

It would take several days to finish.

The ensuing errand work was then handed over to Liu Cangyun to handle.

"How do you plan to handle this work?"

After getting back in the car, Lin Feng asked.

This counts as a kind of test, right!

After thinking, Liu Cangyun replied, "I don't really understand, so I'd like to ask a professional agency to help with the guarantee; although it will cost a bit more, it's safer."

"Smart!" Lin Feng praised, "If you can't handle something yourself, spending a little extra money is fine; just don't get taken in."

"Mm!"

Liu Cangyun happily nodded.

This time Lin Feng was driving.

The phone rang.

He had Liu Cangyun answer the call.

"Hello~ This is Mr. Lin's phone; I'm his assistant… Okay, I'll ask him…"

Liu Cangyun didn't hang up and asked Lin Feng, "Boss, it's the people from the Giant Panda Breeding Base asking when you're free."

Lin Feng then recalled that last time in Chengdu he had promised them he would spend one hundred million dollars to build a panda park in Yanjing.

Lin Feng's heart stirred, thinking that if they built a panda park, could they also get a plot of land to build houses?

One hundred million dollars is not a small sum.

Thus Lin Feng said, "I'm free this morning."

Liu Cangyun immediately informed the other party and arranged a meeting place.

The location was a teahouse near West Mountain Park.

The person meeting Lin Feng included the person in charge he had met in Chengdu last time.

Plus a few people from the Yanjing side.

After some introductions and pleasantries, the leader praised Lin Feng again.

Then they got down to business.

They wanted to place the Giant Panda Breeding Base in Xishan Forest Park.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "That's no problem; you're professionals! But you also know my reason for investing—one hundred million dollars is not a small sum…"

Those who came were most afraid Lin Feng would back out.

As Lin Feng had just said that, everyone present felt their hearts rise.

Such situations are common; some rich people, when happy, blurt out promises to invest however much money.

As a result, when he turned around, he felt it wasn't worth it, and he came up with all kinds of excuses and pretexts.

For example, his business had lost money, his account had no funds, and some simply refused to see him.

"Mr. Lin, feel free to mention any requests you have!"

The person in charge said.

Lin Feng said with a smile: "I have a small request; could you give me a piece of land next to the panda breeding Base you built? I want to build a house."

"Don't worry, I can promise that this house will be solely for my own residence; I will not sell it to others, nor will it have any other commercial use."

"You also know that my daughter Song Jiaren loves rice balls so much! It's also for convenience!"

Those present exchanged glances.

Then the person in charge smiled and said: "Mr. Lin, I understand your meaning; we will report this request to our superiors, and I believe they will agree."

"Then I'll wait for your good news."

Lin Feng stood up, bade farewell, and left.

"What does this person intend? Building a house next to the Base—surely he doesn't really intend to keep rice balls as pets, does he?"

"He's wealthy, and this isn't a big deal; it's better to be close! If the Base ever runs short of funds, this connection might even persuade him to invest."

"I think we shouldn't complain; one hundred million US dollars is no small sum, and our vision should be more long-term!"

"That's right! Nowadays everything emphasizes commercialization; the breeding work of giant pandas cannot proceed without substantial financial support."

Having left, Lin Feng sat silently in the passenger seat, and inevitably the scene of Song Jiaren walking a panda along a small path in the park appeared in his mind.
