Chapter 312: No Longer Just a Friends' Gathering

Just when Lin Hao was making huge profits, Xu Zhisen was in great disgrace.

First, he acquired Land No. 3 at a high price of 2 million yuan, and then transferred it to Lin Hao at a price of 2 million yuan. Now the value of this land has soared to 4 million yuan.

When Xu Zhisen found out about this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He was so angry that he even instigated Lu Tao to go back and question Lu Yaxun!
In fact, Lu Yaxun cannot be blamed for this matter. After all, Lin Hao came from the future. At the same time, Lin Hao also used his skills to learn about the overall plan from upper-level channels and deliberately concealed the news.

So this was not a fluke for Lin Hao, but a premeditated plan, otherwise Lin Hao would not have been interested in Site No. 1 from the beginning to the end!
Just when Lin Hao was busy with the construction of Site No. 1, he received a call from Xiangnan, inviting them and their good friends to get together!
When Lin Hao arrived at the hotel, Lu Tao also arrived. The difference was that Lin Hao and Yang Xiaoyun still came by taxi as before.

Lu Tao only drove his Audi, with Xia Lin and Fang Lingshan sitting in the back seat.

As soon as both parties got out of the car, Xia Lin enthusiastically took Yang Xiaoyun's hand and was so affectionate that if you didn't know them, you would think they were sisters!
As for the relationship between Lin Hao and Lu Tao, it seemed a bit awkward because of the previous dispute over the bidding land!

After Fang Lingshan got out of Lu Tao's car, she went straight to Lin Hao!

"Tsk tsk, what complicated interpersonal relationships are!" Huazi said with emotion when he saw this situation.

When Xiang Nan heard this, he first looked at Yang Xiaoyun reluctantly, and then took his eyes away from Fang Lingshan. He felt that he and Lin Hao were born incompatible. Why do all those beautiful girls like Lin Hao!

Then he sighed helplessly in his heart, and finally gave up his fantasy and embraced reality. Xiangnan hugged Lulu and greeted everyone:

"The two busy people who are the last to appear are finally here, please come in quickly!"

Then everyone entered the box and took their seats. Xiangnan and Huazi began to condemn Lin Hao and Lu Tao.

"Hey, you guys have been really busy lately! I wanted to invite you guys out for a get-together before, but you all seem to be busier than the other!"

"That's right. Xiangnan and I have been thinking that if we don't get together again, the four of us brothers will probably have to break up!"

"Xiangnan and I get together often. If you don't come this time, I'm afraid we brothers will really break up!"

"That's enough!" Lin Hao picked up the wine glass and said, "Brother, I know I was wrong. I will drink three cups as punishment!"

"Okay!" Lin Hao's decisive attitude won everyone's applause!
When Lin Hao drank three cups in a row, Lu Tao also picked up his glass and said:
"I've been a bit busy lately, but I'll try to make time for you in the future. I'll drink this glass of wine to express my apology!"

To be honest, among the four people, Lin Hao is the one who has done the best, followed by Lu Tao. However, Lin Hao has maintained a humble attitude from beginning to end, while Lu Tao still has a sense of superiority in his words.

But no one cared too much about it. After all, that was Lu Tao's personality. Although no one liked that attitude, everyone had long been used to it.

Xiangnan looked at those high-spirited people and felt a little confused for some reason. His brothers were becoming more and more successful in their careers, but he seemed to be still the same as before, standing still.

Just when Xiangnan was feeling down, Lulu held his hand, and Xiangnan came to his senses and patted Lulu's hand.

Then Xiangnan said to everyone: "Actually, there is another important reason why I invited everyone here today!"

Then everyone looked at him, but Lin Hao did see some clues, after all, Xiang'an had done this in the original drama.

Sure enough, Xiangnan raised Lulu's hand and said:

"Lulu and I are married. Today, on the one hand, I want to tell you the good news, and on the other hand, I want to invite you to attend my wedding with Lulu!"

“Ooo ...

"congratulations······!"

Then the atmosphere of the party reached its climax, and everyone congratulated Xiangnan and Lulu and gave their blessings!
At this time, Yang Xiaoyun looked at Lulu with envy. She also wanted to get married! Then she looked at Lin Hao with expectation.

Facing Yang Xiaoyun's fiery eyes, Lin Hao was also thinking about this matter in his heart. As a qualified master of balancing things, marriage issues are the biggest problem.

Mainly because of the monogamy system, he could not avoid this problem. However, Lin Hao had already thought of a solution, so he gave Yang Xiaoyun a comforting look.

Just as Lin Hao and Yang Xiaoyun were exchanging glances, Xiangnan and the others started talking about the house.

Xiangnan said to Lin Hao and Lu Tao somewhat embarrassedly:

"By the way, I heard Huazi mention that you both have real estate projects. Lulu and I want to buy a house of our own. I wonder if you have a suitable house there!"

After Lulu and Xiangnan finished speaking, she added:
"It would be better if it could be cheaper. After all, we don't have much money saved."

Lin Hao dared to guarantee that it was definitely Lulu's idea to invite him and Lu Tao to the party. After all, they could only buy one house. It was a simple strategy that killed two birds with one stone.

However, Lin Hao could also understand that Lulu had always wanted to have a home because of her family background and the fact that she had a deaf-mute brother.

It doesn’t matter who gives her this home. As long as he can give her a home, she is willing to live with him.

It was the same in the original plot. At first, she thought Huazi could give her a home, but Huazi wanted to get married after buying a house.

Later, Huazi's partner Zhutou took advantage of the situation and promised to help Lulu obtain a residence permit in Beijing and help Lulu settle her brother, so it was natural for Lulu to marry Zhutou!
After Lulu finished speaking, Lu Tao immediately said:

"Sure. When my Lu Tao's "Frankfurt Style" is finished, you can choose the one you like. I will try to give you a 10% discount. It will be a gift for you to celebrate your success! How do you think?"

Xiangnan and Lulu looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. A 10% discount would save at least tens of thousands of dollars!

I have to say, Lu Tao is really awesome. How long has it been since he graduated from college? How dare he take on such a big responsibility without any experience at all?
Which company with such a big order would dare to appoint a newly graduated student as the chief designer?

Considering that Lu Tao's father is the chairman of the company, it seems that this matter is acceptable. After all, it is not the father and son who live in the house!
Architectural design is an industry that requires a lot of experience. Houses are built for people to live in. If there are any defects, then it’s all over!
Lin Hao has architectural design experience from The Golden Years and has also taken charge of a manor project. Even with the experience from this world, he still doesn't dare to take on the responsibility of designing high-rise buildings.

Even though Lin Hao has designed a villa on his own, the design of a villa is different from that of a high-rise residential building.

And what did Lin Hao do?
His method was to find a top designer and have him work with him to design high-rise residential buildings. To put it bluntly, he was just trying to gain experience, and he had already done this twice.

But Lin Hao thought of Lu Tao's adoptive father, Lu Yaxun, the leader of the Planning Bureau. Hmm! It seemed that everything could be explained!

When Lin Hao came back to his senses, he found that several people were looking at him, so Lin Hao smiled and said: "This is not a big deal. Our company's project is called "Blue Sky Century City", but it is quite far from the inner city. If you don't mind the distance, like Huazi, I will give you the cost price for the house and the fine decoration!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. In addition to being surprised that Lin Hao was willing to pay the cost price, they also heard an incredible piece of news, and then the topic was successfully diverted.

Xiangnan said incredulously: "Hua Zi, you bought a house!"

Huazi said innocently, "I bought it. Didn't I tell you?"

"Where's the house?" Lu Tao asked curiously.

Hua Zi said proudly: "It's the Changqing Garden community that our company is responsible for renovating!"

Lulu was immediately interested when she heard this: "How big is it? How much is it per square meter?"

"It's 140 square meters, fully decorated and costs 3500 per square meter!" Huazi then said proudly: I designed it myself!

"So cheap!" Lu Tao then asked in confusion: "I remember there are no large flats in your community!"

Huazi smiled and said, "Oh! At that time, Brother Hao suggested that I buy two adjacent houses and then convert them into one large flat!"

At this time, Xiangnan and Lulu looked at Huazi with envy. It was obvious that even Huazi had bought a house. Xiangnan was shocked when he thought of this.

The fully decorated house costs 3500 yuan per square meter. Now the price of Changqing Garden community has soared to 5500 yuan per square meter. If Huazi sells the house now, he can make a direct profit of 28 yuan.

Wait, he knows Huazi’s family, and now he has bought two houses for renovation. So how much is his salary?
Then Xiangnan asked in a dry voice: "Hua Zi, how much do you earn in a month?"

"That's not necessarily true. I'm now the vice president of a design company, and the bulk of my salary still depends on my performance. Anyway, the minimum is less than 20,000 yuan when it's low, and around 70,000 or 80,000 yuan when it's high!"

At this moment Hua Zi was secretly very happy in his heart. He finally got the upper hand. Although he was not as good as Lin Hao and Lu Tao, he was better than the worst!
Xiangnan took a breath of cold air when he heard that, and at the same time felt a little envious of Huazi. He knew Huazi's abilities, which were not outstanding, but now he was the vice president.

In fact, it wasn't just Xiangnan. Lu Tao and Xia Lin were also secretly shocked. Before they knew it, Huazi had struggled to the top.

Afterwards, everyone brought the topic back to the house. Xiangnan and Lulu really wanted Lin Hao’s "Blue Sky Century City", which was fully decorated and sold at cost price.

From this point of view, Lin Hao is definitely a good friend.

But as Lin Hao said, the location is a bit remote. Even if it has great potential in the future, it is still a bit far from the city center.

Finally, before the party ended, Xiangnan and Lulu decided to buy Lu Tao's "Frankfurt Style". After all, it would not be a loss since it was close to the city.

Of course Lin Hao didn’t care, but Xiangnan and his family might have to wait for their house, haha!
After dinner, everyone saw that it was still early, so they went to the karaoke bar to sing. Lu Tao paid for a large private room, and everyone had a great time.

Although Huazi, Xiangnan and Lu Tao were all vying for the microphone, they finally discovered that Lulu was the one who sang the best among everyone.

Lin Hao didn’t like singing very much, so he drank with Yang Xiaoyun, Fang Lingshan, and Xia Lin!

"Oh! My charm that has nowhere to go!" Lin Hao sighed in his heart.

However, it didn't take long for Lin Hao to discover that the look in Xia Lin's eyes when she looked at Lu Tao was no longer as passionate as usual. This was probably a sign that she was tired of playing!

The key point is that Xia Lin kept pulling Yang Xiaoyun and they didn't even drink, just stayed there chatting. Lin Hao felt a little bored, so he simply left the private room and came to the door of the karaoke.

Not long after, Lin Hao discovered that Fang Lingshan had also followed him out, so he asked:
"Lingshan, why are you coming out too!"

Fang Lingshan pouted and said, "It's not fun here at all. There's not even anyone to talk to. I wouldn't have come here if I had known!"

"By the way, why did you come here today?" Lin Hao asked.

Hey! My dad and Uncle Xu had a fight. I don’t know what happened. Uncle Xu knew that Brother Lu Tao was coming to the party, so he asked him to bring me along!

"Haha!" Lin Hao already knew what was going on.

This time, Xu Zhisen not only suffered financial losses, but his partner Fang Dezhao also suffered heavy losses because he sold Land No. 1 at a low price. The relationship between the two was also full of conflicts!

Now, because of the appreciation of Land No. 1, the two of them had another big quarrel. Of course, there was someone instigating this behind the scenes.

It is estimated that Xu Zhisen wanted to ease the conflict with Fang Dezhao through the interaction between the two children.

At this time, a Mercedes-Benz stopped not far away. Lin Hao looked at it in surprise, then looked away.

Fang Lingshan, who was standing by, saw Lin Hao making fun of her, and stared at Lin Hao with her big watery eyes and said:

"Brother Lin Hao, what are you laughing at?"

Looking at this cute girl from Taiwan, she is so adorable. Although she speaks in a coquettish voice, she is not trying to be cute on purpose. Rather, it is a speaking habit that she has developed naturally after being in that language environment for a long time.

Then Lin Hao stopped smiling and pointed at the night market next to him and said seriously:
"Come on, I'll take you to see the special features of the capital!"

As he spoke, Lin Hao casually glanced at a Mercedes Benz parked not far away, then took Fang Lingshan's hand and walked past the car, then walked into the night market and started shopping and eating!

Xia Lin, who was in the private room, saw Lin Hao and Fang Lingshan leave separately, and a smile appeared on her face inadvertently.

During this period of time, she always saw Lu Tao and Fang Lingshan together, especially today, he actually brought Fang Lingshan to the party.

Charlene felt like she was about to explode with anger. What kind of person did this guy treat her as?
But she had to suppress her anger today, otherwise everything would be ruined.

But when she got off the car, she found that Fang Lingshan seemed more interested in Lin Hao, so she had an idea and felt that she should take the opportunity to throw Fang Lingshan to Lin Hao, as long as he didn't compete with her for Lu Tao!
Xia Lin didn't know that Lu Tao and Fang Lingshan were together just because Xu Zhisen wanted to ease the relationship.

Of course, it is not ruled out that Xu Zhisen really intended to bring the two together!
