After buying the boxed lunch, she went to the open space where the food was being sold. Seeing several large foreign-owned factories across the street, Lin Li smiled with satisfaction.
The location is great, and we have enough money, so what are we waiting for? Let's get started!
Three months later, Lin Li walked out of the management department, holding the newly issued land use certificate, her eyes crinkling with a smile.
Her career has officially begun!
She found the engineering company recommended by the management department, took her own design drawings, and went inside.
"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?" The receptionist stood up with a professional smile as Lin Li walked in.
"I was introduced by the management department to build a hotel. This is the design plan."
Seeing Lin Li holding the management department's documents and design drawings, the receptionist politely invited her to the reception room, poured her a glass of water, and said, "Please have a seat for a moment. I'll arrange for someone to come and meet you right away!"
Lin Li nodded, and after watching her leave, she began to carefully examine the reception room.
The small, black-and-white cubicle, about five or six square meters in size, contained only a small table with two black folding chairs on either side.
There was a potted green plant by the entrance, growing lush and green, clearly well taken care of.
"Hello! Are you looking to build a restaurant?"
A middle-aged man in a suit wearing black-rimmed glasses walked in together with a square-faced man wearing an engineering uniform.
"Yes!"
"My surname is Li, and I am the project manager. This is Engineer Wang, our company's engineering team leader. Please feel free to tell us your needs!"
Lin Li took out the design draft and laid it flat on the table. "I want to repair this, including labor and materials. When can you give me a quote?"
The two immediately stood up, looking at the professional design draft on the table, their eyes revealing admiration, shock, and joy.
"This design is really well done! It's also very ingenious. I wonder which designer drew it?"
After looking at the design drawings, Manager Li and Engineer Wang touched them and really wanted to get to know the designer.
"I drew this design. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me now!"
The two looked at each other and were shocked. It was drawn by the old lady in front of them.
"Then may I ask..." Engineer Wang pointed to a design and began to inquire.
After listening to Lin Li's quick explanation of the ingenious use of the design, the two finally believed that the design was indeed drawn by the old lady in front of them.
So the three of them talked for the entire afternoon...
By the time Lin Li walked out of the engineering company, it was already quite late, and it seemed that she wouldn't be able to do any business today!
"Ms. Lin, we will calculate all the costs as soon as possible. We'll be waiting for you at the company in three days, is that alright?"
Lin Li calculated the time and was quite satisfied with their work efficiency. She nodded and said, "Then I'll come over again around 9 a.m. three days later!"
"OK!"
The two watched her leave the engineering company, then turned back to their office area to start working!
Three days later, Lin Li returned to the engineering company and smiled with satisfaction after seeing the costs calculated by Manager Li and Engineer Wang.
The total cost was about what she had learned, and she had also done some research over the past three days. This engineering company had a very good reputation in the industry!
High efficiency and high quality!
"Okay, let's sign the contract. I hope it can be completed with high quality and quantity!"
"Ms. Lin, rest assured, our engineering company will do its best to complete the task!"
"good!"
After both parties signed the contract, paid the deposit and the first installment of the project payment, Lin Li left the engineering company.
The land cost 630,000 yuan, and the construction and decoration cost 660,000 yuan. The total investment in the restaurant was 630,000 yuan.
After setting aside 100,000 yuan as start-up capital, Lin Li plans to use the remaining money to buy two houses and several shops.
Housing prices in Shenzhen are not expensive now, and there are many newly built commercial buildings. Lin Li chose shops in a newly built community in Luomeng District and bought two apartments and several shops.
She then bought a three-bedroom, two-living-room apartment in the same neighborhood where she now lives, and after deducting the start-up capital for her business, she has basically spent all the money she had.
Looking at the stack of red certificates in her hand, Lin Li smiled and her eyes crinkled. This is money!
By the time she finished all these things, more than half a year had passed. Seeing the workers in the Shekou Industrial Zone gradually thinning out, Lin Li bought her train ticket and prepared to go home!
Three days later, standing at the town's train station, I took a deep breath. Home is the best place. Everything is so familiar!
"Mother!"
Hearing the familiar voice and seeing Lin Laosan standing outside the crowd, jumping and waving his hands, she waved back at him.
"Mom, you're finally back!"
Lin Laosan finally managed to squeeze through the crowd and reach Lin Li, his eyes reddening and tears welling up.
"Oh! You're crying now?"
"Mom, I miss you so much!" Lin Laosan hugged Lin Li, choking back tears.
"Alright, you're 22 years old, not just 2! You're so old, why are you still acting like a child?"
Lin Laosan blushed with embarrassment at Lin Li's smile and hurriedly took the suitcase from her to cover up his awkwardness.
The mother and son walked and chatted until they reached their doorstep. After opening the iron gate, Lin Li felt a sense of peace as she smelled the fragrance of flowers in the yard.
It feels so good to be home!
"Aunt Lin, you're back?"
When the neighbors passed by and saw Lin Li, they greeted her happily.
"I'm back!"
Seeing her holding her grandson's hand and standing at the door, Lin Li quickly took out a small gift she had brought back from Shenzhen—a silk scarf and imported chocolates—from her pocket and handed it over.
"These are little gifts I brought back from Shenzhen. Everyone, please try them!"
"How could I possibly accept this?"
"Take them! They're just small gifts, not worth much in Shenzhen!"
The neighbor, holding the small gift Lin Li gave her, smiled so happily her eyes crinkled.
"Thank you! I won't bother you any longer. You must be tired after just getting back. Take a good rest."
"good!"
After greeting her neighbors and closing the door, Lin Li called over Lin Laosan and took out the gifts from the box, as well as the gifts she had brought for everyone that she had stored in her spatial storage.
"Third brother, this one is for the village chief, you take it there first. These are for the neighbors, and these are for the villagers..."
After Lin Li sorted everything out, she handed it all over to Lin Laosan.
"I'll send it to them right away!"
"Go quickly, Mom brought you a lot of things too. I'll give them to you when you come back after you've delivered them!"
"Alright!"
Like a gust of wind, Lin Laosan delivered all the gifts that Lin Li had brought back to everyone.
So, rumors spread through the village that Aunt Lin had made a lot of money in Shenzhen, and the gifts she brought back were all very valuable.
The sound reached the ears of the eldest and second eldest Lin brothers, and the two brothers started to have ideas again!
A new round of competition has begun! Please continue reading and vote! (Hands clasped in prayer!)
