Chapter 133 Soundproofing
"Xueqing, are you here to talk to me about something today?" Li Xiang quickly changed the subject.

Zhao Xueqing quickly said, "Yes, I came to report my work to you." She rolled her eyes at Yao Yao and thought to herself that you almost made me forget my work. She quickly took out the plan she had written and handed it to Li Xiang.

Li Xiang invited her to sit together and discuss the matter.

Zhao Xueqing went and sat with Li Xiang, on the same stone bench that Yao Yao had occupied before.

Yao Yao curled her lips and thought to herself, "Little Qingzi, you did this on purpose. If I didn't come, you wouldn't come either. But when I came, you came right after me. You ruined my good deeds. Humph, do you think I will walk away and give you the space? You wish!"

She stayed shamelessly and deliberately stood behind the two of them, bending slightly to listen, because the third stone bench was farther away.

She wanted to see how Zhao Xueqing planned to run the traditional Chinese style teahouse. If she had any good ideas, she could use them for reference.

Seeing that Yao Yao also joined in, Li Xiang specially emphasized the difference between the traditional Chinese style tavern and the traditional Chinese style teahouse. They should have different styles because wine and tea are different drinks. The atmosphere required for drinking wine and drinking tea is naturally completely different.

For example, the lighting is very different. In a pub, even in broad daylight, it should be dim, and the lights should follow the music. In a teahouse, however, it should be bright, quiet, warm, and leisurely.

Although both of them focus on traditional Chinese style themes, in terms of music alone, the pub can focus on traditional Chinese style DJ versions with a slightly more cheerful and exciting rhythm, while the teahouse can focus on ordinary versions, which are more soothing.

and many more.

Li Xiang also said a lot more, and his words were very logical.

The two girls were a little "confused" at first, and sometimes even thought about "copying" each other, but after Li Xiang's "guidance" and explanation, their ideas suddenly became clear.

Yao Yao nodded secretly and looked at Li Xiang with admiration. Her brother was really amazing. After Li Xiang's guidance and inspiration, she had more ideas and her plans could be enriched tenfold.

Zhao Xueqing also felt that she benefited a lot.

Li Xiang said: "When the construction company sends us the plan, we can discuss it together and brainstorm."

Finalizing the "plan" must be a process of "several revisions". It is impossible for Li Xiang to immediately agree and sign the contract as soon as the construction company sends it. That would be too hasty.

Yao Yao was tired of standing all the time, so she ran to get a small stool and sat on the other side of Li Xiang, getting close to him.

Zhao Xueqing: “…”

As they chatted, the sun set unknowingly. It was getting late, so Li Xiang didn't want to keep them for dinner. Their homes were in different directions, so they might have started a quarrel on the way.

Before leaving, Li Xiang quietly told Yao Yao: "Don't dance barefoot in the future. Wear shoes and socks and buy special dance shoes."

Dancing barefoot has higher requirements, and the drum surface is made of cowhide, which is elastic and smooth. When changing dance steps, the center of gravity moves from the heel, the arch, the sole to the foot, and it is indeed easy to lose balance.

"Yeah, I get it." Yao Yao thought to herself, my brother must mind me showing my feet to others. Haha, I won't do that. From now on, I will only show my sexy dance to you.

"Brother, next time I will buy some nice anklets and anklets, put them on my ankles, and then dance barefoot for you to see, okay?"

Li Xiang: “…” So what I just said was in vain?

In the next few days, he started to make drums. He had done it before, so he was very familiar with it.

There were a lot of big and small drums, and they were placed in a long row in the corridor, which was a spectacular sight.

Especially the 1.8-meter-tall drum. Because it was so big, he was afraid that the effect would not be good, so he specially installed three long "tuning forks" in the drum chamber. When Yao Yao stepped on the drum surface or hit it with her toes, it could produce "resonance" and have a better sound effect. The cowhide was not enough after it was used up last time, so he went to buy some more. Then the wood was not enough, so he went to Li Yucheng's house to buy some dried fir.

Fir is also good for making drums. Although there are fir trees on the mountain, this kind of wood is different from red elm wood and cannot be used immediately after being cut down.

……

The video of Yao Yao dancing barefoot on the war drum turned out pretty well, except that it ended at the climax. However, many times, this kind of "incomplete beauty" is even more attractive.

So Li Xiang edited the video and posted it on his own social media account, and also forwarded it to Yao Yao, who also posted it on her own account.

Li Xiang divided the content of his account into several themes, such as "Quiet Countryside", "National Style Tavern", "National Style Teahouse", and "Dark Holy Land".

Yao Yao's dance "Pure Land of Bliss" is naturally classified as "Chinese Style Tavern".

Many fans were curious and also expressed great interest. Some who lived close to the project left messages in the group, asking Li Xiang to share the progress of the project from time to time, and they would definitely come to support it after it was completed.

Ever since Luo Feifei learned that Li Xiang was going to build an "apocalyptic underground shelter attraction", she has become more and more eager to meet him. However, she is too busy. She has taken on many roles this year, not just TV series but also movies.

For example, there was a movie version of "The Return of the Condor Heroes", and the director asked her to play "Little Dragon Girl".

The director originally planned to find "Da Tianxian" because "Da Tianxian" had played in the TV version of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" in ancient times, but he finally chose Luo Feifei.

Because the "Great Fairy" has grown old. Although she is still very beautiful now, she is no longer at the peak of her beauty and her figure is a little fat, making her unsuitable to play the role of Little Dragon Girl.

The director has high expectations for Luo Feifei and hopes that the "little fairy" can create greater glory and surpass the classic.

Luo Feifei has only been in the industry for a short time, but she is rising rapidly and has become a shining star. Many of the characters she has portrayed have surpassed some of the classic screen images of the past.

……

The construction company was very efficient. It took them only three days to come up with a plan for Li Xiang's self-occupied house, and one week to come up with the first draft of the "Holy Land Garden" plan. Li Xiang called Yao Yao and Zhao Xueqing over to discuss the plan, and also held a video conference with the people from the construction company to finalize some details and improve the plan.

Yao Yao and Zhao Xueqing were not only interested in the "Holy Land Garden", but also in the design of Li Xiang's own residence, and each put forward several suggestions.

For example, Zhao Xueqing thinks that living rooms, terraces, and audio-visual rooms, which are used for leisure and entertainment, can be larger, while bedrooms can be designed smaller, because smaller bedrooms give people a sense of security when sleeping.

A small sunroom can be built in the yard, where grandma can bask in the sun and keep warm in the winter.

Yao Yao suggested that a fireplace could be added to one of the rooms on the first floor. Although a fireplace is a Western thing, Li Xiang's house is a Chinese courtyard, but it does not look out of place. Then they could also build a mahjong room so that everyone can play mahjong together.

Houses in rural areas have higher ceilings and are colder in winter, so floor heating and air conditioning are necessary.

Yao Yao also thinks that sound insulation is very important. Many houses in rural areas are not soundproofed, and neighbors can hear what people say at home.

Zhao Xueqing looked around and said, "Brother's house has no neighbors."

Yao Yao: "...Nowadays, all houses need to be soundproofed!"

Li Xiang quickly tried to smooth things over: "All the suggestions are good, we'll adopt them all!"
