Chapter 28 The New Residence in Qingdao

Li Bin asked Xiaoyu why she majored in archaeology, and even joked that she was interested in tomb robbing.

Xiaoyu's answer was even better: "No. I think there are fewer people who sign up for archaeology, and I don't like the number of people."

"Then what are your plans after graduation?"

"Marry you."

After Li Bin was dizzy, he affirmed Xiaoyu's lofty ideal.

"Your ideal is great and will be realized, I promise."

Tease Xiaoyu every day and become a thing that Li Bin enjoys, and the gradual physical contact with Xiaoyu has become a compulsory task every night. A little progress can make Li Bin excited for several days.

It was almost New Year's Day, and Zhang Huilan proposed to go back to Qingdao to take a look. However, it was a place that had been living for decades. You can't just leave it alone.

On December 22, 2008, Lin Bin drove back to Qingdao with his family.

Today is Monday. Li Bin originally planned to come back on Saturday, but Saturday and Sunday were the merchant's golden day. In those days, there were promotions for Love Boutiques and business centers, so Li Bin couldn't walk away, so he delayed the return date to Monday. Anyway, Xiaoyu didn't care about the major she studied, and it didn't matter if she could not get a diploma. So Li Bin asked Xiaoyu to take a few days off to come together. Besides, the whole family left, and Li Bin was not relieved to leave Xiaoyu alone, even Zhang Huilan was not relieved. This girl, no one was taking care of her at home, and she couldn't be hungry every day.

It was not afternoon when we arrived in Qingdao. The old house had been demolished into a flat land, so naturally Zhang Huilan and her party drove directly to their new home in Licun Community.

After the new home signed the agreement, Han Xiaowei told Li Bin that his decorative team would help Li Bin decorate. Li Bin didn't care, so he agreed. At that time, he directly assigned Han Xiaowei 100,000 yuan of decoration money, allowing Han Xiaowei to decorate according to this standard. At that time, Han Xiaowei smiled and said nothing, and took the money off. According to Li Bin's instructions at that time, it would be enough to simply decorate the house and buy some suitable furniture. It would not cost 100,000 yuan for every calculation.

When I opened the door and saw the decoration inside, Li Bin and Zhang Huilan were very satisfied. The overall decoration style was neither simple nor extravagant. The living room was paved with milky white marble floor, including suspended ceilings and other styles. There was a circle of mahogany sofas in the living room, and a 40-inch LCD TV was placed on the TV cabinet, which was not very high-end. The kitchen, bedroom, dining room, and bathroom were all the same styles. Han Xiaowei was very careful in doing things, and all the living utensils were prepared properly. Li Bin took a rough look and found that such decoration would cost about tens of thousands of yuan. The most distinctive feature of the decoration of the entire house was the design of a small bar at the separation of the restaurant and the kitchen. More than a dozen bottles of red wine and domestic famous wine were placed on the wine rack behind the bar.

For such a long time, Li Bin has also studied red wine. He often accompanied some officials and merchants in and out of some occasions and has also seen a lot. Li Bin picked up a bottle of red wine from the wine rack. Chateau Haut Brion 1989 is a product of Graf Obikang Manor in Bordeaux, France in 1989. Li Bin smiled slightly, put the bottle of Obikang Manor back to the wine rack, and then reached out to pick up a bottle. Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1982 is Lafite from 1982. This kind of wine is now priceless and rarely seen on the market. This bottle of wine can be sold for at least 100,000 to 80,000 yuan when it is on the market. It seems that the decoration of this house cannot even be exchanged for two bottles of wine on the wine rack.

Li Jie and Zhang Huilan were still visiting their new homes with great enthusiasm, and only Xiaoyu kept quietly holding her arm by her side. Li Bin took out the phone and found Han Xiaowei's phone number and dialed it. The phone was quickly connected, and Han Xiaowei's voice was remembered on the phone:

"Haha, Hello, Mr. Jun, are you back? I'm going to visit you."

It seems that Han Xiaowei has already told the community security guards that he would call Li Bin to notify him when he saw him coming back.

"Xiaowei, thank you for your hard work, let's have a meal together."

"Okay, where did you say you're going?"

"Come at home, I'll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Li Bin told her mother that she would invite Han Xiaowei to a meal at home, and asked Li Jie to take her mother to buy vegetables with her BMW, and to see what else is missing at home to bring them back. Zhang Huilan was very happy. Han Xiaowei helped the family so much that she should invite someone to have a good meal. Thank you. Li Jie pouted and took Zhang Huilan out. The house was not fresh enough, so her brother slammed herself out to buy vegetables. "Stingy, I'll invite her to eat at home, and I don't know how to go to the big hotel." Li Bin smiled and ignored her.

It is also a treat to a meal. The feeling of treating guests at home is completely different from that at a hotel. Only those close to you are qualified to sit at home and have fun with others. Although Li Bin does not think that he is very close to Han Xiaowei, Han Xiaowei has done so many things for him and thinks that he has to treat him to a meal at home.

Han Xiaowei came late, and it was almost a little while before knocking on Li Bin's door. Han Xiaowei kept apologizing as soon as he entered the door:

"Sorry, Mr. Jun, I'm late. I just rushed back from Yantai and there was a traffic jam on the road."

It was almost eleven o'clock when Li Bin hung up the phone. From Yantai to Qingdao in two hours, you can imagine how fast Han Xiaowei drove his car on the road, let alone if Han Xiaowei had anything important to go from Qingdao to Yantai. He just let go of things and rushed back without stopping. But this friendship is enough. Han Xiaowei is very good at being a human being and knows how to be friends. A casual sentence lets Li Bin know how much he attaches importance to Li Bin's relationship. In one sentence, just to reveal a message, I am in Yantai, and I ran back happily with a call. That's great.

Li Bin shook hands with Han Xiaowei with a smile:

"Xiaowei, please call me Shi Jun from now on, Jun Shao Jun is the best, please don't know." This is the second time Li Bin asked Han Xiaowei to call him Shi Jun.

"Okay, Shi Jun, then I won't be polite to you." In fact, Han Xiaowei had already been happy. Jun Shao directly called him Xiaowei, no longer called him Mr. Han, and was still at home. This means that Jun Shao has regarded himself as his own person. Han Xiaowei was sure to know that he would call Shi Jun Shao now, and he would not do such stupid things if he had marked him outside Shi Jun's circle.

Li Bin led Han Xiaowei and introduced Xiaoyu to him. Zhang Huilan and Li Jie and Han Xiaowei had seen each other several times, so naturally there was no need to introduce him. Han Xiaowei was shocked when he heard Li Bin introduce Xiaoyu as his fiancée. This young man was indeed very human. He could bring his fiancée to his mistress's house, and he looked happy, which was indeed not something that ordinary people could do.

The food was already ready, and for Zhang Huilan, it was already a very sumptuous banquet. A few cold-selling players had already been on the dining table, and only a few hot dishes were left waiting for Han Xiaowei to come before starting to stir-fry.

He invited Han Xiaowei to sit at the dining table. Han Xiaowei was kind and thoughtful. Xun thanked Zhang Huilan and sat down without being polite. Zhang Huilan went to the kitchen to cook, and Li Jie also went to help. Xiaoyu was not polite and sat next to Li Bin.

Li Bin took the 1982 Chateau Lafite Rothschild from the wine rack and opened it, poured a glass for Han Xiaowei.

Han Xiaowei thanked him and said nothing, but his heart was turbulent. This bottle of wine was the most expensive bottle of wine on the wine rack. What does Jun Shao treat him with this wine, what does it mean?

Li Bin poured a glass for Xiaoyu, Zhang Huilan and Li Jie who were absent, picked up the wine glass in front of him, and shook it gently.

The bright red wine swayed gently along the edge of the cup, and then slowly rotated and flowed back into the cup.

Gently touched the cup with Han Xiaowei.

"Xiaowei, thank you."

Han Xiaowei smiled and took a sip. He said he was welcome and felt a little disgusted.

Li Bin took out a check and handed it to Han Xiaowei.

"Friends are friends, money is money. I will make up for the remaining amount of decoration. If it is not enough, tell me."

Li Jie, who was serving the dishes, saw the check in Li Bin's hand, one, six zero, one million. Li Jie's hand shook, and the crabs on the plate were almost thrown to the ground. What kind of decoration cost more than one million, and I can't tell where it is valuable.

Han Xiaowei hesitated slightly, took the check, and stuffed it into his pocket without even looking at it. If he didn't accept this check, then the relationship between him and Jun Shao would end here. As for whether he would exchange it or not, it would be his own business. Han Xiaowei wouldn't be so lacking in sight.

"Shi Jun, I'll accept the money. Besides, you just won't treat me as a friend."

Li Bin smiled:

“Aren’t we friends?”

"Ha ha……"

Both of them laughed.

In the past 1982, Lafite drank Li Bin's mouth and drank red wine worth more than ten yuan. He even said that it was not as exciting as the three-yuan bottle of Qingdao beer. I remember that when I came back from the army to visit relatives, my mother went to the small shop downstairs to make three yuan of Qingdao bulk beer for herself. The cool feeling was so exciting when I drank it.

In a short while, after stir-frying a few hot dishes, Zhang Huilan and Li Jie also accompanied him. In this family, Li Bin is the only man and the head of the family who is naturally the one in the family. This status was established by Zhang Huilan for him and cannot be changed. Therefore, when he was in Langfang, Li Bin had already stole the main seat on the dining table.

With outsiders here, the rule of eating Mo Yan in the Li family is naturally not true. The atmosphere is lively when people drink and chat at the table.

"Shi Jun, are you interested in the plan of the city square at Shandong head?" Han Xiaowei asked Li Bin halfway.

This question is a bit intriguing. The city square at Shandong head was built by the municipal government. It has long signed a cooperation agreement with Juji Industrial Co., Ltd. in the south. It is invested and operated by Juji Industrial and undertaken by Weiye Real Estate Company. The total investment is 2 billion yuan, which involves a lot of connections. What does Han Xiaowei mean when asking this question now?

"Oh?" Li Binsi searched for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with the city square?"

"Damn." Han Xiaowei swears, then wakes up, apologizes to Zhang Huilan, Li Jie, and Xiaoyu repeatedly, and then says: "Juji Company is going to withdraw its investment. Now this project is not enough, and the leaders of the city have slapped the table for this matter. I went to Yantai today to find an investor. Our company has advanced more than 200 million yuan in this project. If this project is discontinued, my company should discontinued."

"Why did Juji withdraw his investment?" Li Bin asked strangely.

"Fatty man said that because of the recession of the international financial market, his company's capital turnover is not working. Nonsense, I think he is just asking for more preferential policies from the city."

"Then tell me what's going on?"

According to Han Xiaowei, the original cooperation agreement proposed a preferential policy of exempting city squares from one year. After the relocation in Shandong, Juji Company proposed a five-year tax exemption. Five-year tax exemption, then this government team will be the result of the previous generations' success, and they will not be able to make any political achievements. Of course, they will not do it. Juji Company claimed that the international financial market was in a downturn, and most of its funds were trapped. Now that it is unable to bear the subsequent projects, they are willing to pay 10 million in liquidated damages according to the contract. Now the demolition project in Shandong has been completed, and some construction units have entered the on-site construction. This loss cannot be compensated by a mere 10 million yuan. So the city has no choice but to continue to negotiate with Juji Company, while looking for investors to take over the subsequent projects.

After listening to Han Xiaowei's introduction, Li Bin thought about it for a while and said:

"There was a problem with the signing of this cooperation agreement in the city at the beginning."

Han Xiaowei said angrily: "Who said it was not? The fat man was Sun Jingbin's nephew. It would be strange if there was no problem here."

Sun Jingbin is an alternate member of the CPC Central Committee, deputy secretary of the Shandong Provincial Party Committee, and secretary of the Qingdao Municipal Party Committee. He can be regarded as a high-powered person.

Li Bin thought for a while and said:

"I can't be self-dedicated in this matter, please wait for my answer."
