Xu Zhongyi glanced at Xu Changle. Both father and son felt that the budget of 10 million Chinese dollars could be borne.


    "No problem. You can do it according to this budget."


    Xia Xiaolan was immediately happy:


    "Then I''ll plan and design according to this budget and show you the first draft within half a month."


    "Yes, do you want to sign a contract with your office? I''ll let Changle do it. "


    Xia Xiaolan''s firm has done a big order of "Luohu Tiancheng" so far, and the remaining small businesses are pulled over by the existing two architects of the firm, Kong Yongquan and Hou Qi.


    It barely maintained part of the daily expenses of the firm. Now the firm is still supported by Xia Xiaolan''s money and has not entered the profit model.


    The big order of "Luohu Tiancheng" is also an internal business. The charge is not high. It''s Xia Xiaolan''s own money. It''s boring to toss from the left pocket to the right pocket.


    Of course, Xia Xiaolan had expected such a situation, and she didn''t care about spending money to keep the departure office for a few years.


    It''s not a matter of money, but there has been no big business. Kong Yongquan and Hou Qi are both senior architects in China. Kong Yongquan is senior brother Xia Xiaolan. When Mao Kangshan called, he came to Pengcheng directly after he retired from his original unit.


    Hou Qi met Xia Xiaolan at the Jiangcheng architecture seminar and resigned from her original work.


    Yes, even if they don''t have much business, their salary is much higher than that in their original unit.


    But killing chickens with ox knives all the time is a waste of their professional skills and the precious time of two senior architects!


    There is no shortage of money and business.


    This is the current situation of Qihang architects.


    To compete with the Architectural Design Institute, Qihang office must have its own reputation.


    How does fame come from?


    Design more famous projects!


    Xia Xiaolan is happy about this. To tell you the truth, Xu Zhongyi entrusted the museum project to the office, which made her happier than when she directly gave Xia Xiaolan $1.5 million.


    Xu Zhongyi said to sign a contract, but also to make things formal.


    Human feelings belong to human feelings, and things should be done well.


    If Xu Zhongyi is not satisfied with the design of the museum, he will still ask the office to rework.


    Xia Xiaolan also likes business. She fooled Xu Zhongyi. Can she still fool others?


    I didn''t smash the signboard of Qihang office.


    Originally, it was difficult to build a firm model in China. Every step should be on the right road and make fewer mistakes, because the market does not allow departure firms to make mistakes!


    At 7 o''clock, Xia Xiaolan and Ji Jiangyuan were reluctant to leave for the airport.


    Tina was reluctant to have breakfast, and everyone''s attention was still on Xia Xiaolan. Talking about land and entrustment, the time for breakfast was inseparable from the word "money", and she couldn''t help whispering, "it''s like I haven''t seen money -"


    Grandma Yu Shua turned to look at her, and Tina suddenly became nervous.


    The old lady must scold her!


    It''s over. Why didn''t she hold back.


    Tina is nervous. She can probably think of what grandma Yu wants to spray her - nothing more than being ill bred, or not knowing how hard it is to make money. She must praise Xia Xiaolan again and compare them together.


    But why is she in a hurry to make money?


    Xia Xiaolan was born in China. Her family is poor. It''s not her fault.


    Xia Xiaolan looked at her and smiled.


    Little girl, you are forgetful. You have to learn a lesson.


    Li didn''t pay attention to Tina. He got on the bus with Ji Jiangyuan and heard grandma Yu ask Tina:


    "When will you go back to school?"


    Xia Xiaolan saw from the rearview mirror that Tina''s expression became confused. It seemed that grandma Yu didn''t scold her. Instead, she asked a question that was out of touch, which surprised Tina.


    Xia Xiaolan looked back.


    Zheng Feng has started the car steadily.


    Ji Jiangyuan laughed:


    "You''re not angry at all?"


    "Will you be angry with a person whose psychological age is only 9 years old? Angry with her, I can''t create the value of a dime, which wastes my time! "


    Xia Xiaolan said with awe inspiring righteousness. If it weren''t for her cunning eyes, Ji Jiangyuan would almost believe it.


    Xia Xiaolan''s words are half true and half false.


    It''s a waste of time to be angry with Tina. Whether Tina likes her or not will not delay her communication with the Xu family or her career development.


    In addition, grandma Yu is worried that she can''t make rules for Tina. Tina can''t get well with her mouth.


    ……


    Xia Xiaolan and Ji Jiangyuan left.


    Tina is really under grandma''s fire.


    Being watched by the old lady, Tina was powerless:


    "I applied to the school for suspension and went to class after I adjusted myself."


    "Grandma, Tina has promised me that she will go back to school in the summer semester."


    Xu Changle explained for Tina.


    Most universities in the United States have a short semester system. It''s already March. The summer semester will come soon... Xu Changle didn''t approve of it at first. Later, she thought that Tina stayed in China during her suspension and was just closer to her family, so she agreed.


    Grandma Yu sneered:


    "Smart people are working hard. She wants to waste her best memory years on vacation for fear that the gap between herself and smart people is not big enough?"


    "You, you mean Xia Xiaolan is smart and I''m a fool?"


    Tina blushed with anger.


    Grandma Yu nodded naturally, "aren''t you?"


    Tina turned away in anger.


    Grandma Yu forbade Xu Changle to coax her. Every word she said was ruthless gunfire:


    "Changle, you should remember that anyone, no matter what reason he uses to persuade you to indulge, is a malicious person! Don''t listen to losers imparting life experience. The definition of success and failure doesn''t depend on how much money they have, or what they teach their children... Their children are people who eat and wait for nothing. Such people know shit! "


    Evil hearted!


    Shit!


    Tina always felt that the old lady was insinuating abuse at Mrs. Wilson.


    The old lady scolded last night, but she didn''t scold so hard.


    Tina wants to argue with grandma Yu, but thinking of George, she is a little bad.


    What did she refute?


    George is really not a successful man.


    Success depends not only on how much money you have, but also on the starting point of the parties. George''s starting point is very high. The third generation of the Wilson family has hundreds of times better resources and platforms than ordinary people. Others start from scratch. For George, they can casually raise millions of dollars as a venture fund... However, George doesn''t make any great achievements in his career in his middle age.


    George is undoubtedly a good man.


    Don''t care about money.


    For divorced Jiya can be very good.


    But the title of good man does not hide George''s lack of ability in his career.


    Tina''s head was about to explode and she hurried back to the room.


    Her room is door to door with Mr. and Mrs. Wilson.


    Tina went back and the Wilson just got up. Mrs. Wilson smiled lovingly, "where have you been since you got up so early? Why don''t you have a rest?"? Now it doesn''t matter if you are young. When you are a few years older and don''t get enough sleep, your skin will deteriorate. How much money you spend on maintenance can''t make up for your skin aging. "


    Tina doesn''t know what to say.


    What happened last night and this morning made her not in the mood to care about her skin maintenance!
