In the evening, Zhao Yongjun and the others gathered at the courtyard house in Liuhai Lane.
Zhao Yongjun was the last to arrive. He had gone to Beihe Province to visit a senior in the metaphysics world and personally invited him to participate in the Taoyuan Club's groundbreaking ceremony. When he received Xia Ruofei's notice, he was on his way back to Beijing.
As soon as Zhao Yongjun arrived, Song Rui said, "Ruofei, Brother Zhao is here too. You should tell us why you called us back, right?"
Zhao Yongjun smiled and asked, "You guys arrived early?"
Song Rui said gloomily, "Isn't that so? But Ruo Fei this fellow has been keeping us in suspense, insisting on waiting until everyone is here before he is willing to say! "
"Oh?" Zhao Yongjun raised his eyebrows and asked, "Ruofei, why are you being so mysterious?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Good news! Wait a moment! "
After that, he turned and walked into his bedroom. After a while, he took out the long cardboard box.
"What is it?" Song Rui was the most impatient. He couldn't help but come forward to take the cardboard box.
Xia Ruofei pushed his hand away and said, "Don't touch it! You can't afford to pay for it if you break it! "
After that, Xia Ruofei personally opened the paper box and took out the piece of calligraphy. He slowly spread it out and held both sides of the paper in his hands, showing it to everyone.
"The Taoyuan Club's inscription?" Zhao Yongjun muttered to himself.
Then, he suddenly trembled. His eyes were fixed on the signature of the inscription. His expression was very shocked.
Xu Zixuan, Liu Jian, and the others were also stunned when they saw Master Song's inscription.
The most interesting expression was Song Rui. He looked like he had seen a ghost. His face was full of disbelief.
After a while, Zhao Yongjun asked with a trembling voice, "Grandpa Song specially mentioned the inscription to our Taoyuan Club? Ruo Fei, you wouldn't have gotten a fake from somewhere, right? Why would an old man care about such a small thing? "
Song Rui also came back to his senses. He said bitterly, "This is my grandfather's inscription. Yesterday, I went back to the old house. My grandfather asked about the details of our project, including the name of the Taoyuan Club. I told him … but I'm curious …"
Speaking of this, Song Rui looked at Xia Ruofei and asked, "Why didn't my grandfather write it and give it to me yesterday? Why did he wait until I left? and gave it to Ruofei? What's going on? Who is his real grandson? "
Hearing Song Rui's words, everyone almost burst out laughing.
Zhao Yongjun smirked and patted Song Rui's shoulder. He said, "Xiao Rui, it's obvious that you're a failure. Learn more from Ruofei! "
Zhao Yongjun didn't dare to tease Song Rui about the old chief's family bloodline, but it didn't stop him from taking the opportunity to attack him.
Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He could only comfort him. "Song Rui, don't think too much! Maybe after you left yesterday, the chief decided to write the inscription for us! After all, this is a club project. The chief must be very cautious! And this afternoon, Director Lu happened to have something to do at the CPPCC, so he brought it over … "
Song Rui's expression became slightly better, but he still said gloomily, "He could have called me! I can get it myself! "
"That's enough, Xiao Rui!" Zhao Yongjun said. "We were originally working on this project together. Isn't it the same to give it to Ruofei and to you?"
Xia Ruofei also said, "Let's talk about something serious! The chief's inscription is a huge encouragement for us … "
There was no doubt about that. Xu Zixuan and the others were still glowing, and they still hadn't come back to their senses!
Xia Ruofei continued, "I was thinking, aren't we designing the Taoyuan Club's logo? Why don't we use the chief's inscription as the logo? "
Zhao Yongjun said subconsciously, "That's not appropriate, right?"
In his opinion, Master Song's inscription was more of an encouragement for the younger generation. At most, they would frame the inscription and hang it in the Taoyuan Club's office. Wouldn't the chief be unhappy to use the chief's inscription as the Taoyuan Club's logo?
This time, even Song Rui wasn't sure. He asked uncertainly, "Ruofei, this … can my grandfather's inscription be used casually?"
Actually, Director Lu had already hinted in the afternoon. Master Song could give Xia Ruofei this inscription, so he didn't care how they used it. Naturally, it didn't matter if it was used as the club's logo.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Don't worry! The chief won't mind! By the way, who's in charge of connecting with the graphic design company? "
"Brother Xia, it's me!" Wei Jun said quickly.
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "How about this! You take this inscription to the design company tomorrow and use Master Song's inscription as the foundation to design a few more versions. By the way, only use the three words of the main body. Don't use the inscription at the back … "
The same logo definitely had to be prepared in many versions to meet the requirements of different occasions. Horizontal version, vertical version, three-dimensional characters, etc …
When Zhao Yongjun and the others heard Xia Ruofei's words, they secretly sighed in relief.
Only using the main body of the inscription and not the inscription would be much more low-key.
Although Master Song's inscription was distinctive and many people in the upper circle could recognize it at a glance, it didn't make a difference whether or not the inscription was used. However, at least ordinary people wouldn't be able to recognize it.
As for the design of the Taoyuan Club's logo, it was settled just like that.
In the end, Xia Ruofei reminded, "Wei Jun, when you go to the design company to scan it tomorrow, remember to directly cover the inscription."
Master Song inscribing for the club was still quite sensitive. If the entire inscription was scanned, it would be equivalent to leaving an electronic draft in the design company. With Xia Ruofei's meticulousness, naturally, he wouldn't leave such a hidden danger.
Wei Jun quickly nodded and said, "Okay, I'll remember Brother Xia!"
"Also, this piece of calligraphy is very precious. When you take it tomorrow, remember to be careful. Don't damage it. I still have to treasure it!" Xia Ruofei reminded again.
"Understood! Brother Xia, don't worry! As long as I'm here, the calligraphy will be preserved! "Wei Jun quickly patted his chest and promised.
Song Rui, who was on the side, said sourly, "I also want to keep a piece of my grandfather's calligraphy …"
Xia Ruofei, Zhao Yongjun, and the others were stunned for a moment, then they burst into laughter …
Then, everyone talked about the completion of their respective tasks. It had to be said that everyone's efficiency was very high.
In fact, the Taoyuan Club's logo was already half designed. However, after receiving Master Song's inscription, the design at the front was naturally scrapped.
Xu Zixuan was responsible for contacting the construction company, and it had basically been confirmed. This project was a collaboration between his brothers, and they weren't going to do any bidding. In fact, relying on Xu Zixuan's own connections to find the construction company, it was more reliable than a formal bidding.
In terms of the media, Hou Liang was naturally responsible. Because of his family background, he had a unique advantage, so contacting the media was naturally successful.
Liu Jian was responsible for contacting the company, including the layout of the groundbreaking ceremony, the scheduling of the audio LED and other equipment, the deduction of the on-site process, and so on. Everything was carried out in an orderly manner according to the plan.
In addition, the work of contacting the guests was also carried out very smoothly.
It had to be said that Zhao Yongjun, Song Rui, Xu Zixuan, and the others combined into a rope, their strength couldn't be underestimated. In Beijing's upper circle, unless it was someone like Liu Haofan, who was obviously not easy to deal with, the other factions would basically give them face no matter what.
Therefore, in just a short three days, the groundbreaking ceremony was basically half prepared.
Xia Ruofei and the others discussed for a while. With three days left to prepare, everyone tried to think of as many problems as possible and didn't leave any mistakes.
When it was time for dinner, everyone naturally stayed in the courtyard and continued to freeload.
The food was also ordered from a nearby private restaurant. Zhao Yongjun and the others had their eyes on Xia Ruofei's good wine.
However, Xia Ruofei didn't relent and insisted that there really wasn't a single bottle left.
Xia Ruofei's oak barrel was a standard 225L barrel, and it was filled to 750ML per bottle. There were about 300 bottles in total, which was still quite a lot. However, Xia Ruofei didn't want to waste the wine since it hadn't been completely ripened yet.
In fact, other than the three bottles he took out during the gathering that day and the three bottles he gave to Master Song and Director Lu this afternoon, which added up to six bottles, Xia Ruofei didn't want to touch the rest of the wine for the time being. He wanted to wait until they were completely ripened in the space with rich spiritual energy.
300 bottles seemed like a lot, but if he didn't pay attention to moderation, it would be consumed very quickly.
Of course, Xia Ruofei wouldn't be stingy with his friends. He didn't have Semillon, but he had enough Zui Ba Xian in his collection.
Originally, 50-year-old wine was still relatively rare, but now that Xia Ruofei had the Time Formation Flag, wouldn't it be easy to make 50-year-old wine? It would just take a few days.
Zhao Yongjun didn't have any objections to this. He originally liked strong liquor, but he couldn't forget the unique taste of Semillon. Since Xia Ruofei couldn't squeeze out more Semillon, in his opinion, the top-notch Zui Ba Xian was naturally excellent.
In the evening, the brothers drank six bottles of Zui Ba Xian together. Each bottle of Zui Ba Xian was better than the limited 8,888 yuan bottle of top-notch Zui Ba Xian on the market. Of course, Xia Ruofei didn't feel distressed at all.
On average, everyone drank nearly a catty of wine, so everyone naturally stayed in the courtyard house for the night.
Now, whether it was Song Rui or Xu Zixuan's family, as long as they heard that they stayed at Xia Ruofei's place, they wouldn't have any objections. For the brothers to work together on a project, the elders in the family were even more happy to see it happen.
The next day, except for Xia Ruofei, the brothers began to split up again. Wei Jun also took away the Master Song's handwritten inscription under Xia Ruofei's repeated instructions.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Tomorrow was the groundbreaking ceremony of the Taoyuan Club. If everything went well, Xia Ruofei would return to Sanshan after the ceremony.
In the evening, Xia Ruofei arrived at Beijing International Airport.
He drove here alone and didn't let Wu Qiang accompany him.
Because Xia Ruofei came to pick up someone today, and the person he was going to pick up was Ling Qingxue.
Taoyuan Club project also had shares in Ling's Restaurant. For such a big event like the groundbreaking ceremony, even if Ling's Restaurant only had a small share, they still had to send someone to attend.
Originally, Ling Xiaotian had sent a vice president because Ling Qingxue had been busy opening chain stores. Ling Xiaotian was now in a semi-retired state and didn't want to go out.
Later, Ling Qingxue put aside the work at hand and decided to go to Beijing in person.
Ling Xiaotian naturally didn't object to Ling Qingxue's decision, and Xia Ruofei even raised both hands to welcome it.
Xia Ruofei ordered a cup of cappuccino in the cafe at the airport and sat down to rest for a while. When he heard the announcement that Ling Qingxue's flight had landed, he stood up and walked to the domestic exit.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Xia Ruofei saw Ling Qingxue, who was dragging an aluminum suitcase, coming down the escalator from a distance through the glass wall.
Ling Qingxue was wearing a beige knitted sweater today and a pink down jacket on her arm. Her figure was curvaceous, and she matched it with slim jeans, which set off her iconic slender and beautiful legs. She wore a black Yankee baseball cap on her head, and there was a trace of charm in her playfulness.
Perhaps it was because of the telepathy between lovers, Ling Qingxue also saw Xia Ruofei in the crowd. She excitedly took off her baseball cap and waved it at Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei stood in front of the prohibited line with a smile on his face, watching Ling Qingxue walk out of the prohibited area. The two of them were a few meters apart, and Ling Qingxue dropped her suitcase and threw herself into Xia Ruofei's arms like a swallow in the forest.
Xia Ruofei hugged Ling Qingxue's soft body and reached out to rub her black hair. He said dotingly, "Qingxue, it must have been hard on you!"
Ling Qingxue hugged Xia Ruofei tightly and asked cutely, "Did you miss me?"
"I missed you so much that I almost went crazy!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Let's go! I'll take you home! "
Ling Qingxue said coquettishly, "No! Let me hug you for a while more … "
"Everyone is watching!"
"I don't care …"
In fact, separation and reunion were the two eternal themes of the airport. They were repeated every day. Hugs, waving hands, and kisses were common. Everyone did not look at them strangely. Instead, they smiled kindly.
Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue were indeed very compatible. They almost met all the traditional standards of a perfect couple. Naturally, it was easier for them to receive blessings from strangers.
Ling Qingxue hugged Xia Ruofei for a while more. Then, she was a little embarrassed as she got out of his arms. She blushed and looked at the people around her, then held Xia Ruofei's arm tightly.
Xia Ruofei took Ling Qingxue and walked over to get their suitcases. The two of them walked towards the airport parking lot together.
Along the way, Ling Qingxue held Xia Ruofei's arm tightly and stuck her body close to his, as if she was afraid that Xia Ruofei would run away.
