In order to live in seclusion, I tricked my roommate into falling in love
Chapter 409: Life Needs Small Happiness
Chapter 409: Life Needs Small Happiness
The dean of the UN University College of Landscape Architecture and Horticulture is a big name in fruit and vegetable research and development, and has nothing to do with ornamental gardens.
So the flower-growing expert who was sent here is said to be a fellow apprentice of the director of the gardening department here, and he also has a strong academic style.
He didn't even bother looking at the black suits or the fleet of luxury cars. He went straight to Zi Xiaowei, whom he had met twice at department meetings, and complained, "I said I could just call Old Deng, but he insisted I come along. What the hell are you doing? My flowers are about to bloom, and I'm busy analyzing them."
As he spoke, he touched Zi Xiaowei all over, then sniffed a few times quickly and immediately turned around to touch Lao Chang!
Those drivers in suits were scared out of their wits. No city leader would dare to do that to the chairman.
Old Chang was stunned for a moment. It had been so many years since anyone treated him like this.
Zi Xiaowei, however, was grinning beside him: "Yes, yes, he smokes, he has a lighter...smoke less!"
Of course, what he said later was to Huang Yongjian and the others. According to Zi Xiaowei's "selfishness", as many measurement and design teams as possible could come, because the money would be counted as donated construction funds or project expenses here anyway. He would rather strictly control other expenses and spend as much as possible on college students.
Seven or eight boys, who were obviously the main chimney workers of the construction site, were all crowded around the vice president with giggles.
Seeing the academic bigwigs who didn't dare to communicate all the way, I took a golden lighter from Old Chang, who was wearing a summer T-shirt and trousers. After fiddling with it for a few times, it was almost as good as a two-dollar lighter and it could light up when I broke it open.
Everyone stretched their necks and got closer to light the fire like savages around a campfire. They all took a sip and felt refreshed as if they had come back to life.
The flower grower even stretched out his arm to help the students light the flowers. Without a second thought, he put the lighter in his pocket, feeling relieved. "Two days, I'll only be here for two days. Let me tell you, if my genetic analysis of the grafted flowers is successful, the flowering period will be prolonged, and the disease resistance rate will be greatly improved. Your landscape project can be used on a large scale right away..."
Zi Xiaowei was both amused and annoyed: "Director Yang, lighter, you're just like the signing pen at the medical school. Isn't there any doctor or nurse whose pen won't be stolen?"
The flower farmer was confused for a moment before he followed Zi Xiaowei's direction and inexplicably pulled out a lighter from his trouser pocket: "Hey, how come I have a lighter like this? It's not mine. Wow, it's so heavy."
Old Chang really hadn't experienced the feeling of not being treated as a superior in many years. It was a bit like he was on an incognito visit. He smiled curiously and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Xiaoling always gives me a lighter when she comes back from abroad. There are a lot of them at home. You can take them."
Director Yang looked at it again, his eyes showing what a pretentious thing it was, but he still handed it back.
Zi Xiaowei was still dazzled by the golden color. He stretched his head to look at what was in the hands of the Vice President and said, "Fuck, Director Yang, please accept this. This is definitely not ordinary stuff. We'll know when we check it out. Get in the car, get in the car."
Huang Yongjian and the others immediately put cigarettes in their mouths and followed Zi Xiaowei's example of taking out their mobile phones when in doubt, and filming the AI search.
Old Chang turned around and got into the car without a care in the world, reminiscing. "I remember a guy more than a decade ago who followed me to the airport to pick up general agents from all over the country. He always had a bunch of lighters in his pockets. Every time he came out of the port, a bunch of people were touching their bags, and he would immediately hand over his lighters. Everyone was so happy that I later made him my general assistant."
Zi Xiaowei applauded: "That's called discerning eye for value, but you also need to have enough ability to match it. Now what?"
Lao Chang laughed and said, "You'll see it tomorrow..."
At this time, a lot of unbelievable exclamations came from behind!
Huang Yongjian was the most familiar with the man, so he ran over and said in a trembling voice, "It's a Cartier lighter, and it costs over 20,000 yuan?"
Zi Xiaowei made a face. He knew that according to Chang Yueling's shopping preferences, this was already a bargain. "Don't be so ignorant. Be more steady. You are the one leading the team. Go and make arrangements. Then take Xiao Song to my car. Someone will accompany Director Yang. The two teachers will sit in the car behind me."
Huang Yongjian managed to keep his face straight and ran back quickly.
Sure enough, when Song Huifang and Huang Yongjian came over and got in the car, they were also surprised: "A lighter like this costs over 20,000? Can smoking be so expensive?"
Zi Xiaowei started the journey with a smile: "Baiyangdian is just a few dozen kilometers away. You've heard of it, it's a 5A-level scenic spot. May is when the lotus flowers are in full bloom and are at their most beautiful. This business trip will delay the progress of work a little. Let's take some time to travel together. Don't hang out with them. Let's experience more together."
Huang Yongjian was still scratching his head: "The academy takes this very seriously. If it weren't for Lao Yang's connections among his fellow students, the department head would have come. How could he dare to delay?"
Song Huifang reacted faster than him: "Thank you, Brother Wei, for always taking care of us. We will do our best."
Zi Xiaowei nodded, "Your main task as a good wife is to balance work and life, taking care of everyone and making arrangements. Then you can take a weekend to go over and have a couple of days. You work for a lifetime, but you should also experience a lifetime of life."
Old Chang leaned on the passenger seat with great interest, watching Zi Xiaowei take care of his younger brothers who were not very talented.
It was only a hundred kilometers. Not long after, Huang Yongjian was feeling for a cigarette again, and cautiously asked if there was a lighter in the car.
Old Chang seemed to be reminded, and he also touched the cigarette and pressed the cigarette lighter. Then, during the short period of time when it heated up and turned red, he was quite surprised to see Huang Yongjian being beaten up by his girlfriend!
"Smoking again! I told you to smoke less... You have no manners. Smoking is not allowed in the car. You smoke but don't even know to offer a cigarette to the uncle. You also let Wei Ge smell the secondhand smoke..."
In short, a lot of charges were quickly dug up and Huang Yongjian was beaten so hard that he held his head in silence.
But this guy was still thick-skinned and held the cigarette in his mouth without shaking. He put his face close to Lao Chang's and lit the cigarette pitifully, which made Lao Chang laugh.
It's obvious that this is a married man's unique skill of calmly enjoying the little happiness in life amidst the stormy waves.
However, if the snoring monster knew that it was the billionaire who lit his cigarette, he would probably make a frame out of the cigarette butt and put it on display. The next day's cooperation negotiations at the Provincial Agricultural University went extremely smoothly.
Of the vast area of more than 60,000 square meters, only more than 5,000 square meters are nurseries, and the rest are "occupied" by automobile companies. When the land was demarcated, they were squeezed out by several thousand square meters, which made them quite dissatisfied.
Therefore, the area left vacant after the adjacent park was completed serves as a buffer zone for both sides.
The entire area around the Agricultural University is basically filled with industrial, commercial and residential plots belonging to various automobile groups.
We should have been very wary of this, wondering if the capitalists were trying some new trick to secretly encroach on the land.
Now it has been bought by an "independent" gardening and landscape company, which has cooperated to build a botanical landscape garden with scientific research value, which is open to citizens and surrounding enterprises, institutions and colleges free of charge.
It is sponsored by the College of Landscape Architecture and Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Southwest Associated University and is an academic exchange project.
The people at the Agricultural University immediately felt relaxed and accepted it.
Moreover, in the future, the entire academic cultivation of plant landscape gardens will belong to the Provincial Agricultural University, and daily maintenance, planting and other work will be outsourced to the tertiary industry company of the Provincial Agricultural University's College of Landscape and Horticulture to make money.
The gardening and landscaping company is only responsible for paying the bills and overall operational management.
This is how the Agricultural University's College of Landscape Architecture and Horticulture got tens of thousands of square meters of nurseries for free, and can also use the money of commercial landscape companies to carry out many plant cultivation projects.
A good thing that guarantees profit.
Then we reached an agreement while the leaders were chatting and laughing. The Automobile Group arranged for Mr. Zi's assistant to sign an agreement and contract with the other party's office director in a good attitude, arrange the construction schedule and the list of plant cultivation, and the payment can be made immediately!
Starting from several million!
I didn't dare give too much for fear of scaring the other party, but all the construction equipment from the construction party had already been dragged over and were waiting!
Most of the time, Song Huifang was forced to go on stage to introduce the latest mountain and lake model landscape projects of the United Nations University College of Landscape Architecture and Horticulture to the Provincial Agricultural University.
Thanks to the connections of Mr. Zhou and several old professors, several leaders from the Agricultural University came to show their concern. Although they were not experts in landscape architecture, they were also surprised by the efficiency of their peers.
Now I am even more amazed by the before and after comparison of the campus landscape renovation project of the historic United Nations University.
For the brand new Provincial Agricultural University campus that was just built from wasteland, what people envy most is probably the profound heritage of the 211 United Nations University.
The atmosphere is quite harmonious.
Director Yang was a little out of character and quietly asked Zi Xiaowei if this lighter really cost tens of thousands of yuan and whether it was a bribe.
Zi Xiaowei suppressed a laugh. "I didn't ask you to use your position to do anything bad. Second-hand items aren't that expensive, so don't take it to heart. But it's a shame to lose them."
Director Yang decided to go back and use the equipment in the laboratory to drill a hole and attach a chain to the belt.
I can’t put it down!
Zi Xiaowei didn't dare to scare him. You put it in your pocket at that time. If it was considered theft, you could go to jail.
In other words, no one really takes it seriously, and the academic school's thinking is mainly simple.
What’s more troublesome is that after reaching an agreement, there is a sumptuous banquet at noon!
Zi Xiaowei couldn't help but send a message to Ruth complaining: "Can this guy please stop drinking? Brain cells are my friend's most important asset. This is chronic suicide!"
Ruth took a moment to respond, "He can ask Susanna to help him drink. I heard Susanna can drink quite well."
Zi Xiaowei also replied after a while: "I asked him, and he said he couldn't bear to leave."
Ruth immediately cursed: "Ah, what a scumbag who just opens his mouth!"
Zi Xiaowei pretended to be an honest and reliable young man: "Yes, I am not as good at talking as him."
Ruth pretended to believe him and even praised him: "A man shouldn't be slick and flattering. Being reliable is the most important thing."
Ma Ke is positive and motivated: "Life still needs a sense of ritual. It's not fun if you can't get any results with three sticks. I still want to learn this kind of joy in life from him."
Ruth finally couldn't help herself: "You'd better forget it. I think you're no different from him!"
Zi Xiaowei could only avoid drinking parties by hiding in the corner and chatting on his mobile phone.
This is the benefit of the secluded style.
But he just pulled Ruth over.
