Everyone drank and chatted, and naturally, they talked about the groundbreaking ceremony that Xia Ruofei and Zhao Yongjun had discussed.
In fact, Xia Ruofei and Zhao Yongjun were now the leaders of this small team, and Xia Ruofei's proposal was very good, so naturally, no one objected. They all discussed some details with great interest on this basis.
When Hou Liang learned that his proposal to introduce the program team of "The Life of Yearning" was temporarily shelved and was only used as a backup plan, he didn't feel dissatisfied or depressed. He still said that he would actively work to coordinate and ensure that this backup plan could be implemented immediately if needed.
For Xia Ruofei, this club was just a small project that he and his good friends were doing together. Although he would definitely do his best because of Zhao Yongjun and the others, to be honest, he didn't attach much importance to it.
If it weren't for the Nine Turns Heaven and Earth Formation, Xia Ruofei wouldn't have cared so much. If the land was stolen by Liu Er, he would just find another piece.
In contrast, Zhao Yongjun and the others, especially Xu Zixuan and Liu Jian, attached great importance to this project. After all, for them, this was a God-given opportunity to achieve financial freedom.
Although these rich playboys didn't have to worry about food and clothing, if they really wanted to live a carefree life like Xia Ruofei, the pocket money given by their families was far from enough. Once this project was successful, they basically wouldn't have to worry about money.
What's more, this was also a serious matter in the eyes of the family elders. If they did it well, they could still be very outstanding.
Therefore, Xu Zixuan and the others were quite enthusiastic and offered suggestions. The meal lasted until two o 'clock in the afternoon. Xia Ruofei asked Wu Qiang to clean up the mess, and the brothers went to the courtyard where he lived to make tea and continue to talk about the groundbreaking ceremony of the club.
Xia Ruofei personally poured tea for everyone, which made Hou Liang, Wei Jun, and the others feel a little flattered. They quickly stood up and received it with both hands.
Xia Ruofei smiled and asked, "Brother Zhao, since we're going to hold a groundbreaking ceremony, shouldn't we also decide on the name of our club? You can't say 'CP08-0601-0023 Land Project' during the groundbreaking ceremony, right? "
Xia Ruofei's memory was quite good. When he was bidding for the land, he could still recite the official plot number word for word.
Everyone laughed when they heard that, and the focus of the discussion shifted from the invited guests and media, the groundbreaking ceremony process, and so on to the naming of the clubhouse.
Zhao Yongjun asked, "Wasn't it supposed to be called the Taoyuan Club?"
Xia Ruofei shook his head and said, "It doesn't feel good … and calling it a clubhouse now is a bit old-fashioned! Besides, although I'm a shareholder, the club has nothing to do with the Taoyuan Company. It's a joint project. Won't the outside world misunderstand that it's a club under the Taoyuan Company? "
Song Rui grinned and said, "It's just a misunderstanding! I don't mind! Your company is so popular. It's good for the clubhouse to benefit from it! "
Xu Zixuan also said, "Ruofei, I don't think it's a big deal. Isn't it just a name? There are so many people with the same name in the world! What's more, strictly speaking, our club is inextricably linked to the Taoyuan Company! "
What Xu Zixuan said was that after the completion of the clubhouse, they would open a special area to showcase the products of the Taoyuan Company.
Liu Jian, Hou Liang, and others also agreed.
Xia Ruofei said, "That's true, but I feel that the name Taoyuan Club is nothing special. It's a bit popular … Why don't we think about other better names?"
Song Rui's imagination ran wild as he said, "Then … how about we call it No. 1 Mansion? We brothers have to be number one! "
Xu Zixuan said with some disdain, "Brother Rui, isn't this name a bit too tacky?"
Song Rui said unwillingly, "If you think the name I proposed is tacky, then come up with something that's not tacky!"
Xu Zixuan smiled and said, "Let me think about it. I don't have any ideas for the time being …"
"Tsk …" Song Rui expressed his disdain.
The brothers all racked their brains and proposed a lot of names, but they were all rejected by everyone for one reason or another. Although Xia Ruofei was the one who proposed the name, he also didn't have any good ideas for the time being.
At this time, Zhao Yongjun, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Ruofei, why don't we just call it 'Taoyuan Club'?"
Song Rui's eyes lit up and said, "Not bad! Brother Zhao, although only one word was removed, it felt like the style suddenly went up. Look, Boss Ma's' Jiangnan Club 'is so cool. If it becomes' Jiangnan Club ', it will feel so low! Brother Zhao changed the word beautifully! "
Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "Isn't it the same as not changing it?"
Song Rui said, "It's not the same! It's completely different! The whole style is a lot higher! "
Zhao Yongjun also smiled and said, "Ruofei, putting aside your concerns, I feel that the name itself is quite good! Don't our potential customers pursue that kind of idyllic life? Besides, our land is next to mountains and rivers. With your careful arrangement and Yifan's personal design, there is no problem at all to turn it into a paradise on earth! "
Xu Zixuan and others also said that the name was quite good. As for the ownership, the brothers knew it in their hearts. Who cared about what the outside world thought?
In the end, except for Xia Ruofei, everyone voted in favor of the name "Taoyuan Club." Xia Ruofei's objection was invalid, and the issue of the club's name was officially passed.
Then Zhao Yongjun began to arrange everyone's tasks. In addition to inviting guests, everyone also shared other tasks. Some went to find a design company to make the Taoyuan Club's logo, some contacted the club's affairs company to be responsible for specific preparations, and some arranged the construction team. Naturally, there must be a construction representative at the groundbreaking ceremony, and some construction machinery, symbolic digging, and so on.
Considering that Xia Ruofei didn't know many people in Beijing, Zhao Yongjun didn't arrange any specific tasks for him in the end.
Of course, this didn't mean that Xia Ruofei was very relaxed. Once there was an emergency at the groundbreaking ceremony, it would depend on Xia Ruofei to deal with it, especially things related to arrays. Even if it was handed over to others, there must be someone who knew how to do it!
The brothers were full of enthusiasm. After discussing, they left the courtyard house and began to act separately.
In the next few days, Xia Ruofei was free.
Every day, he made tea and strolled around. He also took the time to go to Dali to listen to two crosstalk shows.
Xia Ruofei also called Song Wei. He wanted to take advantage of his free time to practice with him again.
Song Wei, who was originally very enthusiastic about cultivation, unexpectedly declined this time. The reason was very weak. He said that the recent task was more important. It was a big project that ran through the entire postgraduate stage, and it was related to the graduation thesis. Then he said that he didn't have time these days.
Xia Ruofei vaguely guessed the reason. Xia Ruofei's feelings about Song Wei's deliberate alienation were very complicated. On one hand, he was happy to see this situation, so that Song Wei wouldn't sink deeper. On the other hand, he was more or less a little disappointed.
He even felt that cultivation was boring. In his heart, he hoped that the matter in Beijing would be over soon so that he could quickly return to the three mountains.
On the third day, Xia Ruofei suddenly received a call from Master Song's secretary, Director Lu.
"Xiao Xia, are you home today?" Director Lu asked with a smile as soon as the call was connected.
"Hello, Director Lu!" Xia Ruofei greeted politely, then said, "I'm free these few days! Do you have any instructions? "
Director Lu joked, "How would I dare to instruct a big hero like you! Xiao Xia, it's like this. The chief wants to give you something. If you're at home, I'll bring it over. "
Xia Ruofei hurriedly said, "Director Lu, I don't dare to trouble you to come over personally. Let me come over!"
Director Lu laughed and said, "Don't be so polite with me! I didn't specially come over to give you something. Coincidentally, I have something to do at the Political Affairs Office in the afternoon, so I brought it over for you! "
Xia Ruofei didn't refuse and said, "Okay, I'll be waiting for you at home!"
"Haha! You little brat … "Director Lu said," I'll be at your place around three o 'clock. Don't run out! "
Xia Ruofei patted his chest and said, "Don't worry! I'll stay at home today! I won't take a step out of the door until I see you! "
"Whoa! You've learned how to be glib! "Director Lu joked," Looks like you've been in Beijing for a long time. You've become more eloquent! "
"You flatter me!" Xia Ruofei laughed.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Ruofei was wondering what Master Song would give him. Why would Director Lu personally come over to deliver it?
He thought for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. He finished his lunch with this question in mind, then told Wu Qiang to wait at the entrance in advance. He went back to the middle courtyard to take a nap.
Xia Ruofei woke up around two o 'clock. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the clock on the wall. He sat up and took the time to wash up in the bathroom. He changed into casual clothes and walked out of the bedroom.
Although Director Lu was only Master Song's secretary, his administrative rank was that of a high official. He was on the same level as a provincial governor. He had always treated Xia Ruofei very well, so Xia Ruofei didn't dare to neglect him.
Xia Ruofei strolled to the first courtyard. Wu Qiang was already waiting at the entrance.
Xia Ruofei walked over and chatted with Wu Qiang while looking at the entrance of the alley.
Director Lu was very punctual. When it was one minute to three o 'clock, a black car with a red flag appeared at the entrance of the alley.
Xia Ruofei quickly asked Wu Qiang to open the side door for cars. He then walked down the steps to greet the car.
The car stopped steadily at the entrance of the courtyard. Director Lu got out of the car from the back seat with a long cardboard box under his arm.
"Director Lu, welcome!" Xia Ruofei quickened his pace and walked forward.
"Xiao Xia, this place is not bad!" Director Lu looked up and down at the entrance of the courtyard and said, "Looking at the shape, the owner of this courtyard was at least a Baylor!"
Xia Ruofei gave him a thumbs up and said, "You have a good eye! This is a former Pure Baylor Mansion! Last time, the owner of this courtyard was in urgent need of money, so I bought it … "
"You are really rich now!" Director Lu laughed and said, "I didn't even dare to think about a courtyard like this!"
Xia Ruofei said in his heart, "Senior cadres like you, your food, drink, and accommodation are all taken care of by the state. Do you still need to think about this?"
In fact, cadres of high officials were already able to enjoy the treatment of villas. The other aspects of protection were also quite good.
"Director Lu, please come in!" Xia Ruofei extended his hand and made an inviting gesture. He led Director Lu into the courtyard through the entrance.
Wu Qiang directed the driver to drive the car in from the side door.
Director Lu obviously had studied the architecture of the former Qing Dynasty. He walked in and looked around with great interest. He also praised from time to time.
The two went straight to the courtyard where Xia Ruofei lived.
Xia Ruofei asked, "Director Lu, shall I show you around?"
Director Lu smiled and waved his hand and said, "No need! I just took a quick look around. I don't dare to take a closer look. Otherwise, I will be jealous … When I was your age, I was still a publicist in the village commune! But you already have such a big courtyard in the capital, and it's in a prime location … "
Xia Ruofei laughed and scratched his head. He said, "Times have changed …"
"Yes! Times have changed … "Director Lu sighed and said," Let's get down to business first! Here! This is a gift from the chief. I gave it to you personally! This is the completion of the mission! "
Director Lu said as he handed the long paper box to Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei carefully took it in his hand and asked, "Director Lu, what is inside?"
Director Lu laughed and said, "Why don't you open it and see for yourself?"
Xia Ruofei nodded and reached out to open the paper box. Inside was a piece of Xuan paper rolled into a cylinder.
Xia Ruofei thought to himself, "Is this Master Song's calligraphy? Why did the old chief suddenly give me this? "
He slowly unfolded the Xuan paper with doubts. Then, his gaze suddenly froze and revealed a trace of surprise.
Because there were three big words written on the Xuan paper — Taoyuan Club. At the back, there was Master Song's signature and seal. Looking at the time, it was written yesterday.
The three big words were written with silver hook and iron, and the strength of the words penetrated the back of the paper. It gave people a feeling of majesty. At the same time, Xia Ruofei felt that it was slightly different from Master Song's calligraphy. It lacked the biting cold murderous aura and had a more refined feeling.
I'm afraid that his mentality has changed after retirement … Xia Ruofei thought to himself.
Director Lu saw Xia Ruofei's doubts and explained with a smile, "Yesterday morning, Xiao Rui went back. The chief asked about the details of your project. Then, the chief personally wrote this piece of calligraphy and asked me to send it to you. Xiao Xia, the chief really thinks highly of you … "
Director Lu's words were full of envy, and Xia Ruofei also felt that this gift was too precious and timely. He had not expected Master Song to take the initiative to inscribe calligraphy for the club.
Previously, when Master Song inscribed calligraphy for the Taoyuan Company, it had already made Xia Ruofei very happy. However, it was a physical enterprise after all, and a pharmaceutical factory could be considered to be beneficial to the country and the people. Although Xia Ruofei was very surprised that Master Song, it was completely different from this time.
This time, it was a club project! Under normal circumstances, a leader at Master Song's level would definitely not inscribe calligraphy for the club in order to avoid arousing suspicion. However, Master Song still did so. He did not hide his deep concern for Xia Ruofei at all.
Xia Ruofei's eyes showed a trace of gratitude and said, "I really don't deserve this! The chief is really too good to me … "
Director Lu patted Xia Ruofei's shoulder and said with a smile, "Then you guys do a good job! Don't let the chief down, especially remember what the chief said to you. Do things in an upright manner and be a clean person. Pay special attention to this club project! "
Xia Ruofei said seriously, "Thank you, Director Lu, for your reminder. I will always keep it in mind!"
After that, Xia Ruofei carefully rolled up the inscription and put it back into the paper box.
Director Lu said with a smile, "Okay, my task is done! I have to rush to the Chinese Political Consultative Conference soon, so I will leave first! "
Xia Ruofei quickly said, "Director Lu, please wait a moment!"
After that, he took the paper box and quickly walked back to the bedroom. He first put the paper box into the Ring-Tu space, then picked up the two bags that he had prepared before his afternoon nap and walked back to the yard.
"Director Lu, these two bottles of Semillon white wine were produced by my winery in Australia this year. They are limited edition!" Xia Ruofei said, "Please bring them to the chief to taste. He drinks one or two glasses of wine every day. It is very good for his health!"
"No problem!" Director Lu agreed readily.
If it had been someone else who had asked him to bring a gift to Master Song, he would never have dared to agree. Others might not know Master Song's temper, but how could he not know?
But if it had been Xia Ruofei who had given the gift, then there would be no problem at all.
Xia Ruofei then handed the other bag to Director Lu and said, "This is a little filial piety from me. The tea leaves are the best quality Dahongpao tea from our farm. You can keep it and drink it slowly. These two sets of Yuji ointment are for Auntie. And this Semillon white wine, I have also prepared a bottle for you."
"Oh! I am here to beat up the rich! "Director Lu joked." Xiao Xia, you want me to make a mistake! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Who are you? The most loyal soldier of my party! Can I win you over? This is just a little bit of a gift from a junior to an elder. Please don't refuse it! "
Director Lu was just joking. As long as it was something from Xia Ruofei, as long as it wasn't worth millions, he would still accept it. Most of the time, a secretary's code of conduct was the same as the chief's.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony!" Director Lu smiled and took the bag. "Thank you, Ruofei! By the way, I also thank you on behalf of my wife! "
"You're welcome!" Xia Ruofei said. "Tell Auntie to let me know when you are almost done. I will immediately arrange for someone to send it to you!"
"Okay, okay, okay …" Director Lu smiled and said, "Ruofei, then I will leave first!"
Xia Ruofei personally walked Director Lu to the front yard and watched the Hongqi car leave Liuhai Lane. Then, he quickly returned to the middle yard.
