Chen Xiaofan stiffened, remembering what Ji Chen had just said about missing his client's wife.
He was so angry he could grind his teeth to dust. "How come I didn't realize that the wildly growing Shengtong was Ji Chen's?"
He was so angry he was grinding his teeth. Ji Chen usually seemed quiet and reserved, but he had already taken over the new residential development project of Yuanda Real Estate; his company was indeed the general contractor.
He was just a small subcontractor, making a living under Ji Chen's wing.
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became. He said to Gu Xiaoling, "Come on, let's have a drink together."
Gu Xiaoling glared at him fiercely, "I advise you to bring some gifts and go to apologize, then Brother Ji Chen will take you under his wing. You wild Eighth Route Army soldier, you don't even know how to get the necessary permits or bid on projects."
Chen Xiaofan was completely bewildered by Gu Xiaoling's words. His team consisted entirely of bricklayers, some of whom could even read a few words. Preparing a bid was simply a pipe dream for them.
"Forget it, I'm leaving."
With a "whoosh," Chen Xiaofan rode his bicycle and disappeared into the alley.
Even Ji Chen didn't expect to win the bid; it's just that he has been reading architecture books frequently, and this year the construction engineer exam just started.
He didn't even take the Level 2 Construction Engineer exam; he went straight to Level 1. He was the only one in the entire city with the certificate. The rarity of this certificate is no less than that of a high school student getting into Tsinghua or Peking University.
With the support of certifications and a professional team, Shengtong, a company under Jichen, is the only one in Zhizhi City besides state-owned enterprises that can handle this task.
At that time, commercial housing sprang up like mushrooms after rain, and state-owned enterprises were completely short-staffed. After the national policy was relaxed, private enterprises naturally took over.
Ji Chen led Jiang Xue through the Ginkgo Avenue.
Looking at the unfamiliar road, Jiang Xue couldn't help but ask curiously, "Where are you going?"
Ji Chen smiled and said, "You'll find out when you get there."
They walked along the asphalt road, past bare ginkgo trees.
Ji Chen slammed on the brakes. "We're here. Do you want to get out and take a look?"
Jiang Xue looked around and realized this was a car sales place. "Are you planning to buy a car?"
Ji Chen pulled Jiang Xue into the store, and a sales assistant quickly came to greet them.
"Hello sir/madam, this is a Volkswagen dealership. Please take a look and see which model suits your needs."
Jiang Xue quickly pulled Ji Chen outside. Ji Chen looked at Jiang Xue, puzzled, and asked, "What are you doing?"
"This car is very expensive, costing tens of thousands. Where did you get that money?"
Jiang Xue genuinely wondered where Ji Chen got so much money. She understood men's empty promises, but there was a limit to how much they could make; otherwise, they would be the ones who got slapped in the face for showing off.
"Of course I have some, I do."
After Ji Chen finished speaking, he was still about to walk into the car dealership when Jiang Xue stepped forward and grabbed him tightly. "Let's go back, my legs hurt."
Upon hearing that Jiang Xue's leg was in pain, Ji Chen completely lost interest in looking at the car.
Back home, Ji Chen changed Jiang Xue's dressing and then prepared to cook.
"Stop right there."
Ji Chen was taken aback by Jiang Xue's serious voice. He looked at Jiang Xue with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Do you have a new construction site again?" Jiang Xue thought that Ji Chen was always calm and collected, and if he suddenly wanted to go to see a car, he definitely wouldn't go unless he had at least ten thousand yuan in his pocket.
Ten thousand yuan is no small sum these days, and Ji Chen was fixated on that Santana.
It must cost at least tens of thousands, which is the standard for successful people in this era.
"Yes, this project will yield a net profit of around 100,000."
