Chapter 296 Moving and Party

Lin Hao then contacted his employer and made an appointment to meet at a cafe.

As soon as they met, Lin Hao confidently introduced himself:
"Hello, Ms. Liu, my name is Lin Hao, and I'm a designer at Watson Architectural Design Company!"

"Hello!" Ms. Liu nodded slightly and said, "You are looking for me now, have you come up with a new design?"

Lin Hao did not say anything after hearing this, but directly used his illusion skills to find out the real reason why the employer rejected the company's design drawings.

After some inquiries, Lin Hao understood the employer's requirements. To put it bluntly, the design drawings provided by the company were too outdated.

Ms. Liu's villa is designed as a three-story building, covering an area of ​​360 square meters, of which 280 square meters are built and the remaining 80 square meters are reserved for a small garden.

Because large villas like this are relatively rare at the moment, the company's previous use of templates for small villas felt very awkward.

Of course, this is too easy for Lin Hao.

So after canceling the illusion, Lin Hao said confidently:
"Ms. Liu, our company is ready to overturn the original design according to your ideas and make bold innovations. I just don't know if you can accept those designs!"

"Oh! What design is this?" Ms. Liu asked curiously.

Then Lin Hao briefly stated some of his future design concepts, and hoped that she could give him a week.

"Actually, I'm planning to change a design company, but after listening to your design proposal, I think it's pretty good. Show me the renderings in a week!"

"Okay, a week is enough!"

In fact, it only took two days for the renderings produced by Lin Hao to be recognized by Ms. Liu.

After all, Lin Hao used his illusion skills several times to confirm whether his design satisfied her.

In the next three days, Lin Hao completed the design drawings of the villa. After confirmation from Ms. Liu again, Lin Hao returned to the company to find Manager Qian.

Putting the design in front of Manager Qian, Lin Hao said with a smile:

"Fortunately, my plan has been approved by Ms. Liu. Ms. Liu is waiting in the conference room. We can sign the contract now!"

Manager Qian looked at Lin Hao in surprise, then picked up the design drawing and rendering and looked at them. He had to say that Lin Hao's design drawing was so beautiful!
Unlike other designers in the company who always use templates designed by others, Lin Hao's design is very creative.

At this time, he had some ideas in his mind, but he still wanted to settle the contract first, so he said:

"Yes, a very beautiful design. You have done a great job this time!"

"Come on, I'll take you to see Mr. Sun. As long as you sign the contract with Ms. Liu, you can get a large bonus for this project!"

Manager Qian then took Lin Hao to find Vice President Sun, but Vice President Sun did not expect that Lin Hao had actually completed the project.

You know, in fact, the company was ready to give up on this villa design project, but they didn't expect that this person with connections could actually handle such a difficult client!

So Vice President Sun arranged for the signing of the contract while calling the boss to inform him. After all, this was considered to have fulfilled the boss's instructions.

In this way, Lin Hao completed his first design project, and he completed it alone. When the boss heard about it, he immediately came back and gave Lin Hao some encouragement.

At the same time, Lin Hao also received his first commission. Originally, this villa project was contacted and undertaken by the company's senior design team. The design fee was 120 yuan per square meter, and the total design fee was 10 yuan.

But now Lin Hao completes it alone, and the commission is generally 15%, which means that Lin Hao can get a commission of yuan for this order.

To be honest, fifteen thousand yuan may seem like a lot to people of this era, but to Lin Hao, it is nothing.

Fortunately, this villa was designed by Lin Hao alone. If others want to use the template, as long as the difference is less than 10%, they will need to charge a 30% commission, which is equivalent to a patent fee.

In other words, the design of this villa will continue to create value for Lin Hao in the future, but for Lin Hao, this little money is still not worth his attention.

But after all, it was the result of his own labor, so when Lin Hao received the 15000 yuan, he calmly said: "I will also invite colleagues from our design department to dinner tonight."

Not to mention the social events, when Lin Hao returned home, the thought that had been in his mind before popped up again.

Living at home is indeed inconvenient. Although they have lived together for a week, Lin Hao finds it somewhat difficult to adapt to the sudden appearance of a father and mother.

He is not an orphan, lacking fatherly love and motherly love.

He has a biological father and mother in real life, so after considering it, Lin Hao decided to rent a house to live in, which could avoid some embarrassment!
Then Lin Hao took the opportunity to tell his father and mother about his thoughts and plans.

"We have a house at home, why do you need to rent one? If it's far away, you can just take two subway changes and get there," Gao Qiang's father muttered.

The location of their house is really good. The subway station is only a few minutes' walk away, but Lin Hao doesn't want to live here.

Lin Hao shook his head and gave an excuse that he had prepared long ago:

"The company is quite far from my home. Even if I can take the subway, I will still get up early and come home late, wasting a lot of time on the road."

"It's OK for a short time, but for a long time it affects sleep and reduces the energy for daytime work, which is not worth the loss!"

It was a foregone conclusion that Lin Hao was going to rent a house outside. Lin's father and mother were helpless. If Lin Hao was really determined to move out, they couldn't stop him.

Of course, Lin Hao had a reason to move out. He planned to take Xiangnan and Huazi to rent a house in the community where Lu Tao rented a house.

周六
Lin Hao returned to the school dormitory again. As soon as he opened the door, Lin Hao looked at Xiangnan and Huazi, who were still lying in bed and unable to get up.

Lin Hao was speechless. It was already noon, and the two of them were still lying in bed.

The two have not moved out of the dormitory yet because they have not found a job, but they will only live here until July at the latest and then they will have to move out.

"The sun is already shining on your butt, why haven't you gotten up yet?"

Seeing that it was Lin Hao who came in, Xiangnan and Huazi immediately jumped up and said:
"Fuck, where have you been these days? You left us alone in the dormitory!"

"Yes! Now that you and Lu Tao are gone, we don't even have enough people to play games!" Huazi yelled.

Originally, Lin Hao didn't want to force it, but seeing Hua Zi's attitude, Lin Hao smiled and said:

"Oh! I found a job and have been working all this time!"

"What? You found a job?"

Xiangnan and Huazi stared at Lin Hao at the same time, an indescribable feeling welling up in their hearts, including envy, unwillingness, and a hint of jealousy.

This is a very normal mentality. When everyone is unable to find a job, they can still stick together for warmth and get by.

But once someone successfully lands a job, and then thinks about the fact that he or she has not found a job yet, he or she will inevitably have all sorts of thoughts.

Lu Tao is fine, the key point is that Lin Hao, who doesn’t even have a diploma, has found a job, while the two of them who have diplomas are still sleeping in the dormitory!

Hua Zi thought of this and couldn't help but look at the other person who was sleeping soundly. At this time, he remembered that Xiang Nan's father was a policeman and a department-level leader. If there was any problem at work, it was just a matter of calling his elder brother. But he couldn't do that. His family situation was similar to Lin Hao's, and he couldn't compare with Lu Tao and Xiang Nan.

If he still hasn't found a job when he leaves school in July, what should he do next? Will he just go home and live off his parents?
At this time, Huazi felt a little regretful. No matter what, he should find a job first!

"Well, it's a small architectural design company. We're just trying to get by while we can." Lin Hao said lightly.

If he showed off at this time, it would only deepen their resentment. There was no need for him to do so.

"Oh, a small architectural design company!" There was a hint of disdain in Xiangnan's voice.

After all, it wasn't a big company, so Xiangnan felt a little better. But when he thought about how he still hadn't found a job, he became depressed again.

At this moment, he was thinking that if it really didn't work, he would go back and ask his father for help.

Lin Hao was speechless. What's your attitude? I have found a job. It's better than you guys sitting there doing nothing and sleeping.

Lin Hao looked around the dormitory and asked casually:

"Where's Lu Tao? Why can't I see him in the dormitory?"

"He has moved out and rented a house for himself!" Xiangnan said lacking interest after putting on his clothes.

"I'm going to move out in less than a month, and I don't have a job yet. I just got a commission and I'm planning to rent a house. Do you want to share a house with me?"

Xiangnan and Huazi heard this, and they both grabbed Lin Hao's neck and said:

"Did you manage to get the reward?"

"Your company is so good, how much do you make?"

"Stop, stop, stop! Let's talk it over nicely!" Although Lin Hao was stronger than them, he did not force them away.

Instead, he used the most cowardly tone and said the most dignified words: "Not much, not much, just over ten thousand!"

"Shit, I'll beat you to death, you rich landlord, you have to treat us today!"

"Please, please, please! But let's rent the house first, and then we can invite Lu Tao to come along!"

"Well, we are really good brothers!"

Lin Hao said: "Okay, hurry up and pack yourself up, we're going to rent a house now!"

So at Lin Hao's suggestion, the three of them prepared to rent a house!
Just as the three of them walked to the school gate, they saw Lu Tao and Mile.

"Lin Hao, here!" Mile and Lu Tao greeted Lin Hao. After they met, Mile asked curiously, "Where have you been during this period? I haven't seen you in the past few days!"

"I'm going to find a job!" Lin Hao said calmly.

At this time, Xiangnan and Huazi said happily:
"Not only did I find a job, I also received a commission of over 10,000 yuan!"

Lu Tao was stunned for a moment. He was also surprised that Lin Hao found a job and got a commission from the project. But the problem was that Lin Hao didn’t have a diploma!
Thinking of this, Lu Tao felt even more jealous, especially when he heard that Lin Hao got more than 10,000 yuan in commission. He felt even more uncomfortable. Some things should not be compared.

"Lin Hao, you are the first one to have a job, and you also received bonuses and commissions. You must treat us today!" Mile also cheered.

None of them had found a job, so being able to kill Lin Hao would make them feel a little better.

Although Lin Hao wanted to treat everyone, he also planned to finish his own business first:
"Let's get down to business first. Let's rent a house first. Xiangnan, Huazi and I are preparing to rent a house. Please come after we rent a house!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? It's not too late to rent it tomorrow!" Lu Tao also joined in the fun.

Lin Hao shook his head and said:

"Living at home is too restrictive. I think since I'm already working, I should move out!"

"Indeed!" Lu Tao said with deep agreement:
"By the way, there happens to be a house for rent in the neighborhood where I rent a house. Why don't we go there?"

That's just what I want! Lin Hao felt like he had found a pillow, so he said:

"That's great, let's go together!"

"That's great! I thought we would be separated after graduation, but now we can be together again!" Huazi seemed very excited.

So they immediately went to look at the house excitedly, and finally they rented a two-bedroom, one-living-room house for fifteen hundred yuan.

Originally they wanted to rent a one-bedroom apartment, but Lin Hao was not happy with that, so they asked for a two-bedroom apartment and got the house neatly.

"This is not good!" Xiangnan and Huazi said somewhat embarrassedly.

Lin Hao said to Xiangnan and Huazi:

"It's settled. I already have a job. I'll pay a thousand for the rent, and you guys can split the rest!"

"Between us brothers, let's not say those foreign words."

Although Xiangnan and Huazi felt a little embarrassed, they were relieved. They only earned 250 yuan a month each, and as long as they found a job, everything would be fine!

So the two of them happily signed the contract.

Seeing that the house was fully equipped with air conditioning, television, furniture and beds, they started moving and were busy until the afternoon when they finally finished.

After the move, Lu Tao urged everyone to drink to celebrate:
"Today, how can we celebrate Haozi's job? And for your happy housewarming, we must give him a good meal."

"Yes, yes, yes! Haozi, you have to treat us. You can't refuse anymore!"

Seeing that they were starting to make trouble again, Lin Hao said generously:
"Okay, let's go eat hot pot!"

Afterwards, everyone took a quick shower, mainly because they were all sweaty from the move. After showering, Lin Hao changed his clothes.

When they reunited, Lin Hao saw Lu Tao and Mile being affectionate with each other, and something occurred to him:
"Mile, you and Lu Tao are not kind!"

"What's the matter?" Mile and Lu Tao looked at Lin Hao strangely.

"Look, we still have three single guys here. There are so many pretty girls in the Fashion Institute. Why don't you call a few classmates over so we can have some fun together!"

Xiangnan and Huazi’s eyes immediately brightened up when they heard this. Who doesn’t like to interact with pretty girls!

Then he also condemned:
"Yeah, you guys are just busy hanging out together and showing off your affection, and you don't even take care of us single guys!"

Upon hearing this, Mile immediately took charge and said:
"Leave it to me. I'll call a few people for you right away. But you'll have to pay for it, Lin Hao!"
