Yuan Fangguo and his girlfriend arrived at the Capital Airport at around 6 p.m., and after making many detours and transfers, it was already past 8 p.m. when they finally found a hotel and checked in.
They did not disturb Gao Dapeng and Yang Xuexiu, as it was not easy for both of them.
After spending a long-awaited passionate night, the next day, Lin Yumei went to the corresponding unit after breakfast to take care of things, while Yuan Fangguo continued to stay in the hotel.
Zhao Yong and Dafei each drove a car and came to find him in the morning.
He needed a car to navigate the vast urban planning of the capital.
Yuan Fangguo stayed in the hotel almost all morning, either watching TV or answering calls from his subordinates and handling various matters.
Zhao Yong and Dafei arrived at the hotel at noon.
It just so happened that the three of them had a meal together.
Originally, Zhao Yong and Dafei were planning to report to him at the dinner table on the work progress of the North China region over the past six months, but unexpectedly, Yuan Fangguo waved his hand, indicating that they did not need to report.
"I'll report back to you in a couple of days when I get there."
"Mr. Yuan, if we don't report to you, we're afraid that Mr. Tong will criticize us harshly when we go back." Zhao Yong said with embarrassment.
Zhao Yong and Da Fei are both passionate men, but in front of Tong Mingzhu, who has a strong aura, their cultivation is still far from enough, and Tong Mingzhu's hot temper also makes them both quite afraid.
"It's okay. Go back and tell Boss Tong that it's better for us to report work together. I'm very satisfied with her."
Seeing what Yuan Fangguo said, Zhao Yong and Dafei could only put their work matters aside.
After the three of them finished their meal, Yuan Fangguo chatted with them about some family matters. Both of them left their wives and children to come to the north to work hard, and naturally they had suffered a lot of hardships and grievances.
"What do you think of the city where the North China headquarters is located?" Yuan Fangguo asked after taking a sip of tea.
Da Fei nodded and said, "Not bad. It's just an endless plain. I like the feeling of having no obstacles."
However, Zhao Yong's point of view is different from Dafei's. Dafei's wife does not work and their child is only half a year old. His next step is to bring his wife and child over to end their separation.
Zhao Yong's wife currently owns a clothing store in Chengdu. It's the one Li Chunli previously owned in the clothing city. Since she was planning to move to Shenzhen, Li Chunli sold the store to Zhao Yong's wife. His children are now in elementary school, and his wife is the sole caregiver for the household. Although Zhao Yong returns to Chengdu roughly once a month, distant water cannot quench immediate thirst, so he often can only watch and worry about family matters.
"I think our Bashu region is great, with its beautiful mountains and rivers. Here, there's not even a single mountain. When I want to climb a mountain during my free time, I can't even find one."
Yuan Fangguo smiled and said, "Isn't climbing a mountain easy? You can just drive around and look for a mountain. When you find a suitable one, you can climb up."
"They are just small mountain buns, nothing compared to what we have in Bashu."
"When you come back to Chengdu, I will take you to climb the mountain and look for immortals on the mountain." Yuan Fangguo said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Somehow, when the word "immortal" was mentioned, Yuan Fangguo suddenly remembered the first time he and Li Chunli went to Guangzhou. At the pavilion on the hillside of the park, they met an old gentleman with a youthful face and white hair. The old gentleman was quite interested in reading his fortune and gave him some advice. In the end, he told him that if he became rich in the future, he should donate a pavilion in the park and name it "Half-Immortal Pavilion". Yuan Fangguo could remember the words of this mysterious old gentleman from time to time.
Zhao Yong didn't notice that Yuan Fangguo was already lost in thought, and he couldn't help but say "OK".
In fact, this time Yuan Fangguo asked Zhao Yong and Dafei to come together, not only to ask them to deliver the car to him, but also for another purpose, that is, his courtyard house and villa needed to be renovated, and he himself was not often in the capital, so he had to ask them to help with the renovation.
After telling the two of them, Zhao Yong and Dafei were secretly surprised. They didn't expect that Mr. Yuan actually owned four houses in the capital: two courtyard houses, a villa, and an apartment.
"Money, don't waste it. If you want to buy a house, buy one here quickly. House prices will definitely appreciate in the future, and vice versa, the currency will definitely depreciate." Yuan Fangguo told them.
Zhao Yong and Dafei's current annual salary is not low, both of them are basically around 200,000, so buying a house in the capital is not a difficult thing. After listening to Yuan Fangguo's advice, they each had the idea of buying a house.
After chatting for an hour or so in the hotel's tea room, Yuan Fangguo took them to the houses he had bought.
These houses are not far from each other. The two courtyard houses are basically in the same alley. The villa is about 10 kilometers away from the courtyard house, and the apartment is on the Second Ring Road. It takes almost five o'clock in the afternoon to walk there.
After looking at the house, Yuan Fangguo called Lin Yumei. Lin Yumei was thinking about having dinner with Yang Xuexiu and Gao Dapeng in the evening, so she finished her business work early and stayed with the two of them.
After Lin Yumei told Yuan Fangguo the address, she picked up a map and looked for it, and the three of them rushed over.
Gao Dapeng had come to Chengdu half a month ago. At that time, Yuan Fangguo felt that he had matured a lot compared to when he was in college. However, after meeting him this time, he found that Gao Dapeng seemed to have changed.
Gao Dapeng has become much thinner, not as fat as before.
"Why have you become thinner?" Yuan Fangguo said after looking at him for a long time.
Without waiting for her boyfriend to speak, Yang Xuexiu smiled awkwardly and said, "There's a lot to do in the office, and working overtime is commonplace. It's all because of staying up late."
Gao Dapeng nodded, agreeing with Yang Xuexiu.
"Eat more at night and try to gain weight back." Yuan Fangguo said jokingly.
After everyone sat down, they talked about their experiences over the past six months. Lin Yumei's work was naturally easy and she didn't have to worry about anything, so she looked very satisfied while chatting.
However, Yang Xuexiu still felt that she didn't seem to have the same excellent complexion as before, and instead became a little dull. But when he thought about it carefully, wasn't he the same? Back in school, she was bold and daring, but after entering the workplace, she was cautious, afraid that her mistakes at work would be caught by others. It seemed that she was constrained by the hardships of life.
