Chapter 105 My Office Needs Soundproofing
"My uncle's abdominal muscles are all in tatters, so he can't do this job anymore."

"goose……"

Li Yuetong laughed so hard that she fell backwards. She turned sideways and looked at Lin Jiang, her expression becoming much more serious.

"Brother, I want to ask you something, tell me the truth."

"Loved."

"Oh, let's talk business." Li Yuetong said coquettishly, "Have you contacted her again?"

"she?"

Lin Jiang paused for a moment, and soon knew who Li Yuetong was talking about.

"You're talking about Chen Jingjia."

"Yes, that's her!"

Li Yuetong squinted her eyes like a little detective.

"Tell me the truth, are you two getting back together?"

"Even if your dad becomes a male model, we can't be together. You think too much." Lin Jiang said, "Why are you asking about this when everything is fine?"

"She just sent me a message, so I asked you."

"Sent you a message? Didn't you delete her?"

"She suddenly added me again. I didn't agree, but she talked to me through the friend request, asking me if I was tired from studying, and said she would buy me cosmetics and clothes. She also told me to take the postgraduate entrance examination at Zhonghai, and said she could help me find someone." Li Yuetong said:
"If someone is being nice to you for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. I feel like there must be something going on."

Isn't Chen Jingjia a bit too unscrupulous?
Will my male model uncle be my next target?

"You can stay away from me instead of going to Zhonghai for the exam."

"I'm your sister! And I'm your only sister!"

"Don't even mention my sister, even if you are the Queen Mother, you can't do that."

"I'm telling you, Mr. Lin, I'm going to Zhonghai for my postgraduate entrance exam. I'll eat your food and drink your drinks. I'm annoying you to death."

"You are a pervert."

"It's just a pervert. I'll piss you off to death. Lululu..."

Li Yuetong stuck out her tongue and made faces, totally losing her image.

"Hang up, I have to go review. Also, if you two really get back together, even if I'm reincarnated as Third Brother, I'll die in front of you."

"Don't worry, it won't happen."

Lin Jiang said as he drove: "It's almost the end of the month, do you have enough money to spend?"

"That's not enough, brother..."

"Okay, I see."

After hanging up the video, Lin Jiang transferred a red envelope of 1.66 yuan to Li Yuetong.

Lin Jiang: "Spend sparingly, it's not easy for me, your brother, to make money."

Li Yuetong: The other party has cancelled it.

Li Yuetong: The other party has cancelled it.

Li Yuetong:|||||||||||||| 60
Li Yuetong:|||||||||||||60
Li Yuetong:||||||||||||58
Li Yuetong: "Mr. Lin, if you have the ability, answer the phone!"

Li Yuetong: "Just wait, I will definitely tell my aunt!"

Lin Jiang ignored Li Yuetong and was already beginning to admire Chen Jingjia.

But what's the point of this other than disgusting yourself?
I drove to Daoyi Design and went up to the second floor with ease.

I saw Liang Shuhe holding a kettle and watering the money tree in the office.

Today's outfit is simple and formal, a bean paste green women's suit, a white shirt on the upper body, a matching top hanging on the hanger, and a pair of double-buckle flat shoes on the feet, which is both formal and feminine.

Lin Jiang concentrated his attention. Although he no longer had the ability to see through things, his eyesight had improved a lot.

I can see very clearly things that others cannot see clearly.

White shirts, unless they are made of pure cotton, will almost always have a slightly transparent effect, the only difference being the degree of transparency.

and so……

It's white, gathered, and seems to have some lace edges.

As he bent down slightly, the two big white rabbits pushed up his shirt, as if they were going to eat the leaves of the money tree.

"Boss Lin, you're here."

When he saw Lin Jiang, a smile appeared on Liang Shuhe's face.

She didn't know if it was her illusion or some other reason, but every time she saw Lin Jiang, she felt that this person seemed more attractive than the last time.

"Don't even call me little brother, bad review."

"We are at work now. I would have called you at other times." Liang Shuhe said coquettishly, "You came just in time. I have just made some tea. I will pour you a cup."

Lin Jiang nodded and sat down at his desk. Liang Shuhe poured two cups of tea, and the aroma of tea immediately filled the air.

"You are quite elegant. You actually planted a money tree. I haven't seen one before when I came here."

"That's because you didn't observe carefully. You've raised it for several years, but it's growing so slowly. I don't know what's going on."

Lin Jiang looked at the money tree and then at Liang Shuhe.

It feels like all the nutrients have been absorbed by the White Rabbit.

"This thing grows slowly, it's normal."

"It doesn't matter. We just keep them for fun anyway." Liang Shuhe asked after taking a sip of tea.

"The hygiene of the noodle shop should be almost done, right?"

"It's basically done. I plan to open the business the day after tomorrow."

"You didn't participate in the decoration of the noodle shop. It was all done according to my ideas. Now that the finished product is out, how is it? Is there anything you are not satisfied with?"

"They are all very good." Lin Jiang gave a thumbs up and affirmed Liang Shuhe:

"How much did it cost to renovate the noodle shop? I'll call you."

Century Triumph’s house has a renovation fund, but the noodle shop does not, so the bill still needs to be settled.

"Didn't you give it all to me? You used the 2500 million to renovate it."

"Hmm? You used the 2500 million to renovate the noodle shop."

Liang Shuhe was stunned by what he said.

"Isn't that what you mean?"

Lin Jiang didn't know how to answer for a moment.

The decoration has been completed, and Tongzi did not give himself any hint, which means that it is acceptable to use Century Triumph's decoration fund to renovate the noodle restaurant.

In other words, Liang Shuhe had unknowingly created a bug for himself.

"Is there enough money?"

"Of course it's enough. I've never done a business with such a sufficient budget." Liang Shuhe shrugged.

"I'm sorry to tell you that I haven't spent all the 2500 million. Even if you add the cost of the noodle shop, I still haven't spent it all."

“You have money but can’t spend it?”

"I can spend money if I want to, but I don't think it's necessary. I treat you as a friend and don't want to buy you those flashy things."

Leaning back in the chair, the full peak reveals its complete shape.

“I have always advocated not to waste money, so I rarely design for those brainless rich people.”

While speaking, Liang Shuhe opened his drawer and took out a stack of A4 paper, which had been clipped.

"Here are the renovation costs and details. There is still more than 200 million left. Give me an account number and I will return the remaining money to you."

"That's perfect. There's another place where you can show off your skills. Do you have time? I'll take you around."

"of course."

After drinking the tea in the cup, Liang Shuhe put on his own suit, picked up his bag, and prepared to go out with Lin Jiang.

"I think if you button up your suit, you'll look more like a queen."

"After it's fastened, she'll have more than just a queen vibe." Liang Shuhe said with a grin.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Do you want to see it?"

"I don't want to see it, but my eyes want to see it."

Liang Shuhe smiled mysteriously, "Then I'll show it to you quietly."

After putting down the bag, Liang Shuhe buttoned up his suit.

The suit has a V-neck design and only three rows of buttons at the hem.

But after tying it, the two big white rabbits pushed the lapels of the suit to the sides. The word "on the verge of bursting out" was concretized at this moment.

“It’s a visual effect.”

"That's why I said you can't button your shirt. It's too coquettish. If you don't know me, you might think I'm going out to pick up men."

"It seems that there is a reason why your money tree is not growing."

"Goose, goose, goose, are you trying to say that everything has grown up here?"

"I didn't say that, you said it yourself."

She gave Lin Jiang a charming look and said, "You are so naughty. You teased me again."

While they were talking, the two of them got into the car.

Lin Jiang took Liang Shuhe to his company.

"Ignore Venture Capital Ltd?"

After taking a look at the plaque at the door, Liang Shuhe looked Lin Jiang up and down.

“This isn’t your company, is it?”

"Director Liang is just smart. It's easy to chat with you."

"I know it's your style just by looking at the name."

Lin Jiang took out the key and opened the door. Liang Shuhe went inside and took a look. "These things should come with the rental, right?"

"Well, let's transition here for a while."

"My suggestion is to replace the hardware first and the soft furnishing second," Liang Shuhe said.
"The office should be simple and clean. I will equip you with good office computers, printers and other things. I will also set up the general manager's office for you."

"Director Liang understands design. Things like blinds are unnecessary."

"We need to keep it private, right?"

"Otherwise, how can you be so quick to understand?"

"Do you want me to give you some soundproofing? Make your desk bigger? Preferably one that can hide someone underneath?"

Lin Jiang looked at Liang Shuhe meaningfully.

"It seems that Director Liang is also a man of temperament."

"You'd better get yourself a secretary first, otherwise the office will be useless."

"You're right. I remember you had glasses in your bag."

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Try it on."

Liang Shuhe immediately understood what Lin Jiang meant.

"Why are you so mean?" Liang Shuhe said coquettishly, "What is the budget for the renovation here?"

"About 200 million, I'll try to spend all the money. Can you also help me design a logo? That'll be enough."

"You are really rich and powerful. I like clients like you." Liang Shuhe said with a smile.

Lin Jiang muttered to himself, how does she know that he is rich and generous?

Ring ring ring——

Liang Shuhe's cell phone rang.

"Hey."

"Why is it his house again?"

It seemed that he had something to discuss about work, so Liang Shuhe turned and walked out.

Lin Jiang did not disturb her work. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the river view outside.

Although the office is rented now, he has a hunch and an inexplicable confidence.

This office is just a transition.

In the future, we will definitely have our own top-notch office building, standing in the central area of ​​CBD and overlooking the entire China Overseas.

Just when Lin Jiang was sighing, Liang Shuhe came back.

I wanted to continue talking about decoration, but I found that daily tasks appeared above her head!
There is a new task.

【Task name: Work troubles】

[Task Description: The owner's porcelain was accidentally broken by the renovation workers. He is facing a high compensation and does not know how to solve the problem]

[Task Reward: Weight Loss Card*1, 20 Experience Points]

Weight loss card?
[Weight loss card: can help you lose 10 kg in days without rebounding within a year]

This reward is quite meaningful.

But now that I have a gym membership, I don’t have much use for this thing, but I can use it in other situations or give it to others.

"Something happened suddenly. I have to leave first. Leave me a key to the office. I will ask someone to come and measure it later."

"What happened? You're in a hurry." Lin Jiang said, "You didn't drive, let me take you there."

"Okay, let's talk while we walk."

"it is good."

Soon, the two returned to the car.

Liang Shuhe gave Lin Jiang an address and drove towards the destination.

"What happened? What makes you so worried?"

"I have a client who, how should I put it, has had a very difficult time from the beginning to now," Liang Shuhe said:
"He first complained that my design fee was too high, and then he complained that our quote was too high. I was annoyed, so I told him indirectly to find someone else, but he was still unwilling to find someone else. It took more than two months to finalize the matter."

Liang Shuhe's design fee is indeed not cheap, so it is normal to bargain.

But it would be wrong to bargain too much.

Daoyi Design’s reputation and Liang Shuhe’s ability meant that the design fee would not be cheap.

If you think it's too expensive, you can go to other places. There's no need to stick to them.

"And then, go on."

"During the renovation, things were not going smoothly. He always found faults and deducted money from us. From the beginning of the renovation to now, he has inexplicably deducted more than 20,000 yuan from us."

It seemed like he had been holding it in for a long time. Liang Shuhe opened his mouth and kept complaining:
"I finally managed to get the project to the end, but the decorators caused trouble again and smashed their porcelain. I heard it was not cheap. There is really no worry-free thing on this list."

Liang Shuhe sighed, not knowing how to deal with the situation for a moment.

"I should ask someone to do the math, there must be some explanation."

Lin Jiang smiled. This owner must be quite powerful to be able to torture Liang Shuhe into this state.

"Given your design skills and the status of your company, most people wouldn't dare to approach you, right? You should be someone with plenty of money."

"Who says it's not?" Liang Shuhe said:
"You are an exception, but we never reject bargaining. But you cut my design fee in half right away, that's too much. I'm not a third-rate designer."

"It's indeed a bit too much." Lin Jiang agreed.

"I only encountered such a client in the early days of my career. This is the first time I have seen such a client since I came to Daoyi Design."

Liang Shuhe propped his head on one hand and said irritably:
"It's just a 400 million dollar order. To be honest, the energy you put into this order is not as much as theirs. They are always fussy about everything. It's so annoying."

"Don't complain about this for now. After all, it was one of our own who broke the thing. Let's think of a solution first."

Lin Jiang thought for a while and said:
"But there is a problem here. The house is still under renovation. Normally, there shouldn't be any valuables in the house. With so many people, accidents are prone to happen."

"The renovation is basically finished. The owner bought switches and sockets himself, as well as some smart devices, which all need to be installed by electricians." Liang Shuhe said:
"According to the process in the contract, once this step is completed, it is completely over. Unexpectedly, there was a problem in the last step."

Lin Jiang has experience in renovation, and the electrician's coming to install switches and so on does indicate that the renovation is basically completed.

This is the process I followed for the small house I live in.

When the electrician came to install the switches and sockets, the furniture and everything was already in place.

The only difference is that there are no valuables.

“Does your company have such a precedent? As a designer, do you also have a responsibility?”

"Of course." Liang Shuhe said:

"This has happened before. During construction, a customer's watch was damaged, which was worth more than 10 yuan. Because it was second-hand, we negotiated a compensation of yuan. The designer did not supervise properly, so we also had to pay % and deducted his bonus."

"Didn't the company make any compensation?"

"It's not that easy to get money out of the capitalists' mouths."

Liang Shuhe made a joke, but felt a little helpless.

"But this time it's me, so my face is still worth something. The company must also pay some compensation, so as to avoid disaster."

"Good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes singly. Let's go and see what's going on and see if there's any way to remedy it."

"Ah."
