After dinner, Ye Cuiping could not wait to drag Li Guohua out of the house.
They went to Fuhua to see the three apartments with their own eyes.
Seeing how excited Ye Cuiping was, if the conditions were right, they might be able to live there.
Li Tianyu brewed a pot of tea and had just taken a sip when his phone rang.
Li Tianyu glanced at the screen. It was his sister, Li Li.
He picked up the call. It sounded like they were in a car.
Li Tianyu: "Sis, where are you?"
Li Li: "I'm outside. I'm going to pick up Tingting."
Tingting's name was Shi Xueting. She was Li Li's daughter and Li Tianyu's niece.
Li Li got married early and Shi Xueting was already in the second grade.
Li Tianyu: "You drove there yourself?"
Li Li: "Yeah. Oh yeah, why can't I get through to Dad and Mom? I'm worried sick. "
Li Tianming thought that the couple was probably wandering around Fuhua Residential Area.
"They're hard of hearing. They probably didn't hear it. Why are you worried?"
Li Li: "How can I not be worried? I just got off work and heard that Grandpa was sick. How is he now? "
Li Tianming: "He's fine. He just got admitted and is waiting for bypass surgery."
Li Li: "Okay then. I'll go to the hospital after picking up Tingting."
Li Tianming: "Sis, where's brother-in-law? Isn't he going? "
Li Li: "He has a meeting at noon. He said he'll take a taxi after the meeting."
Li Tianyu thought for a moment and said, "How about this? Give me the address of his meeting. I'll go pick him up."
Li Li said, "No need. Let him take a taxi himself."
Li Tianyu said that he had nothing to do anyway. He could go and see his brother-in-law while he was there.
Speaking of which, Li Tianyu had not seen his brother-in-law in a long time. It was time to say hi.
Li Li thought about it and felt that this was a good idea, so she agreed.
After Li Tianyu hung up the phone, he quickly received a message from Li Li. The message contained the address of his brother-in-law's meeting.
Shi Feng worked in an architectural design company called "Hui An". He was the design supervisor.
In Swallow Cloud City, Shi Feng could be considered young and promising, and his salary was above Swallow Cloud City's standard.
Of course, it was still a far cry from the Imperial Capital.
The meeting Shi Feng was participating in was actually a public bidding meeting. The venue of the meeting was the Yu De Building.
The Yu De Building was located in the heart of Yanyun City.
Li Tianyu was no stranger to that place. There were several big shopping malls there.
Li Tianyu picked up the car key, locked the door, and went downstairs.
There was a bit of traffic on the way from home to Yu De Building. It took more than half an hour to get there.
Li Tianyu had already called Shi Feng in advance, and the two agreed to meet in the lobby of the building's North Tower.
When they arrived at the lobby, Li Tianyu saw Shi Feng sitting on the sofa in the lounge area, looking at his phone.
Li Tianyu went over to greet him.
Shi Feng also stood up and patted Li Tianyu's shoulder, "I heard that you've become more capable recently."
Li Tianyu laughed, "Brother-in-law, long time no see. Don't tease me. By the way, how was the meeting?"
Shi Feng heard this and began to shake his head and sigh.
Li Tianyu was confused, "What? Why did the meeting turn out like this? "
Shi Feng, "In our line of work, communication is quite important."
In the past, Li Tianyu was completely uninterested in Shi Feng's work. However, it was different now. No matter what it was, Li Tianyu wanted to hear about it.
Since Li Tianyu wanted to listen, Shi Feng began to talk.
Shi Feng was engaged in architectural design. He usually participated in the bidding meetings of real estate companies. If he won the bid, which meant that his design was selected by the real estate company, then his work during this period would not be in vain.
The so-called communication meeting this time was actually a meeting with a large real estate company. It was also a warm-up for the bidding meeting.
The purpose was for the real estate company to exchange ideas with the design units participating in the bidding.
This real estate company was a local company in Yanyun City called Xuhong Real Estate.
Of course, Shi Feng was not the only design unit participating in the bidding.
Shi Feng, "There are about four or five companies, but compared to them, our Hui An is more powerful. After all, we are an established architectural design company, and our reputation in the industry is good."
Li Tianyu asked curiously, "Is there any problem?"
Shi Feng sighed again, "The problem is big. There is an architectural design company called Jianing. It was just established a few months ago. It was not very eye-catching, but … they seem to have someone who is secretly in contact with Xuhong. Do you understand?"
Li Tianyu finally understood. It turned out that there must be a newly established architectural design company that had "under-the-table operations" with this real estate company.
In fact, this kind of thing was not uncommon in the construction industry. If a construction company had both "strong" public relations and had some relationship with a real estate company, then the so-called bidding meeting was just a formality.
No matter how old the Hui An architectural design company Shi Feng was in was, how strong its reputation in the industry was, and how good the design plan was, it could not be compared to the power of others in the dark.
Originally, Shi Feng's design department had prepared for this bidding meeting for a long time. The design plan had been modified many times, and it was already very excellent. He was full of confidence before participating in this communication meeting.
However, at the communication meeting, the design led by Shi Feng was ignored by the representative of Xuhong Real Estate Company. A lot of problems were pointed out, but those problems were completely groundless in the eyes of professionals. They were just picking bones in an egg.
On the contrary, the newly established Jianing architectural design company's design plan was very ordinary. There was nothing special about it, but it was praised by the representative of the real estate company.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that although the bidding meeting had not started, the tone and tone had been set. The final winning design was most likely from Jianing architectural design company.
Speaking up to here, Shi Feng was a bit listless.
Actually, when it came to the real estate industry, Li Tianyu could be considered an "insider".
He was the planner appointed by the CEO of Aiwa Real Estate.
Aiwa Real Estate was a national real estate company. Compared to Xuhong Real Estate Company in Yan Yun City, it was like an elephant compared to an ant.
Unfortunately, the main character of this bidding was not Aiwa Real Estate, so Li Tianyu could not help.
Shi Feng sorted out his emotions and said, "Let's go to the hospital to see father-in-law."
When the two were about to leave, a person walked over.
That person greeted, "Manager Shi, you haven't left yet?"
Shi Feng quickly said, "Group Leader Song, we were just about to leave."
The man called Group Leader Song waved his hand, "Okay, let's talk later, Manager Shi."
Shi Feng could not help but call out to Group Leader Song, "Group Leader Song, wait a moment …"
