Chapter 296: Chapter 295: Actually, I Used to Be Just a Bricklayer

Lin Feng didn’t answer Zhao Zhengye’s question. He just asked, ”Name your price.”

Zhao Zhengye thought for a moment, then said, ”Right now, this project is just a pile of useless files in my hands. Since you want it, Mr. Lin, I’ll just give it to you.”

Lin Feng was rather surprised.

He hadn’t expected Zhao Zhengye to just give him the project directly.

”You should think this through. The only reason I chose this project is that it still has profit potential. You could absolutely name a price.”

Zhao Zhengye gave a wry smile. ”Actually, Mr. Lin, I’m very grateful to you. Thank you for snapping me out of my stubbornness.”

”Otherwise, I probably wouldn’t even be able to keep this house in Cyan Mountain Town. I’d have poured all my money into it, only to find out that someone else had already developed the software.”

”Wouldn’t I be in an even worse state then?”

”Giving you this project is my way of thanking you, Mr. Lin. You helped me cut my losses in time.”

”I’ve come to a clear realization. With my current abilities, there’s no way I can support this project. If you, Mr. Lin, manage to get it off the ground...”

”...it would be like you indirectly fulfilled my dream for me. I’d be the one thanking you.”

Zhao Zhengye’s expression was sincere.

Since Zhao Zhengye was sincere, Lin Feng didn’t say anything more and simply took the project.

Who wouldn’t be happy to acquire a project without spending a single cent?

Zhao Zhengye said he would give the project to Lin Feng and handed him a USB drive containing the files and plans.

”We will sign the contract with you online soon. The project transfer agreement will be sent to you along with your employment contract.”

Lin Feng wasn’t in a hurry to take the USB drive.

With matters like this, Lin Feng always felt it was safer to get all the agreements signed before taking possession of anything.

Zhao Zhengye didn’t mind.

After all, in his mind, he had already given the project to Lin Feng.

”By the way, President Lin, what will my job be?”

Zhao Zhengye suddenly realized that after all that talk, he still wasn’t clear about his future work responsibilities.

Lin Feng smiled at Zhao Zhengye and said, ”You probably know that the land outside of town is mine. I’m going to develop it into a tourist and commercial district.”

”You are now a core member of the Cyan Mountain Town land project team. You’ll still be in charge of operations—your old line of work.”

Zhao Zhengye nodded in understanding and assured Lin Feng with a smile, ”Don’t worry, President Lin. I’ll definitely do a good job managing the operations.”

Lin Feng glanced at the time. It was almost dinnertime.

”You probably don’t have anyone at home to cook for you. Why don’t you stay for dinner tonight?”

Zhao Zhengye subconsciously started to decline.

However, Lin Feng added, ”The main reason is to introduce you to the other members of the project team—your future colleagues.”

Zhao Zhengye couldn’t refuse now. Besides, he was also very curious about who his future colleagues would be.

The various zones of the Cyan Mountain Town land project had now entered the mid-stage of construction.

In the early stages, Du Hai and Tian Xiaowu had indeed made some changes to the blueprints.

However, because the initial preparations had been so thorough, the modifications didn’t take too much time.

As for the business model, Cao Ming and Du Hai had finally reached a consensus.

To address the issue of homogenization, the two decided to incorporate some of Cyan Mountain Town’s historical and cultural elements into the commercial district outside of town.

The best solution to avoid homogenization was to make their project unique.

When Lin Feng saw the proposal the two had put together, he hadn’t expected them to do such a good job.

However, just two or three days ago, Cao Ming had gone back home due to a family matter.

After all, Cao Ming was still just a freshman in college.

His family wasn’t entirely comfortable with him being away working on his own.

Cao Ming’s trip back home was mainly to win over his parents.

But with the end of the year approaching, it was unlikely Cao Ming would be able to return to the project team before the new year.

So this time, the people Zhao Zhengye met were Tian Xiaowu, Du Hai, and Su Ruoxi.

Su Ruoxi had already cut ties with her family.

So, naturally, she didn’t have the same situation as Cao Ming.

As far as Su Ruoxi was concerned, she would follow Lin Feng wherever he went.

Now, in her heart, the only true family she had was Lin Feng.

”From now on, you are all core members of this project team. You need to work well with each other.”

Hearing Lin Feng say this, Du Hai smiled, nodded, and raised his glass to clink with Zhao Zhengye’s:

”Welcome aboard! You probably have no idea how good the benefits on this team are. People would kill for a spot!”

As Du Hai said this, he gave a playful wink.

Zhao Zhengye had also spent a few years in big companies in the city.

He didn’t put much stock in things like benefits.

In fact, the bigger the company, the more severe the exploitation tended to be.

Things like benefits could change quickly depending on the situation.

Perhaps in his first few years in the workforce, Zhao Zhengye had believed in so-called company benefits.

But after seeing through it all, he had developed a take-it-or-leave-it attitude toward such things.

However, in the conversation that followed, Zhao Zhengye learned that Du Hai had also weathered the ups and downs of the corporate world for many years.

”I thought you were...”

Zhao Zhengye was very surprised to learn that Du Hai had only resigned after being framed by his company.

Because when talking with Du Hai, he couldn’t tell at all that Du Hai had previously been just an ordinary team leader.

If no one had said anything, based on Du Hai’s current eloquence and demeanor, one would have assumed he’d reached the level of a general manager before.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have such an impressive presence.

Du Hai naturally understood Zhao Zhengye’s misunderstanding.

”You’re off the mark about me. How about you guess what Xiaowu here used to do for a living?”

Tian Xiaowu gave a shy smile from the side.

From Lin Feng’s earlier introduction, Zhao Zhengye had learned that Tian Xiaowu was the chief planner for the entire land project...

’That’s a position that absolutely requires a technical expert, right?’

So, Zhao Zhengye thought for a moment and said, ”Don’t tell me you were just an ordinary technical specialist before President Lin discovered you?”

Hearing Zhao Zhengye’s guess, the others at the table exchanged glances and smiled.

Tian Xiaowu scratched his head, embarrassed. ”Not at all. I don’t have any formal training.”

That made Zhao Zhengye even more curious. ”So you’re self-taught? What company did you work for before?”

Tian Xiaowu became even more bashful. He hesitated for a moment, then said with a smile, ”Actually, I used to be a bricklayer.”

Hearing Tian Xiaowu’s answer, Zhao Zhengye’s eyes went wide. ”What?”

It was all starting to sink in for Zhao Zhengye now. For a moment, he had no idea what kind of project team he had just joined.

’The chief project planner used to be a bricklayer...’

’I feel like I’ve boarded a pirate ship...’
