Xiao Lu carried his suitcase and followed Li Qingying's footsteps into the deep courtyard of Tang Mansion.
After walking through the front yard and the middle atrium, Xiao Lu was secretly surprised and said:
"Mr. Tang's mansion is too luxurious..."
Li Qingying smiled and said: "Of course, this house is the family home of the former Guanggang boss Bai. It covers an area of 5,000 square meters."
"It is said that the construction cost alone cost the Bai family nearly one billion, and the interior decoration and layout were carefully designed,"
"However, in order to thank Mr. Tang for his contribution in the bold action of liberation, the Yang family and General Peng gave this house to Mr. Tang, and they were also responsible for renovating it."
Xiao Lu looked around and saw that the architectural style of the Tang Mansion was unique, combining modern and traditional elements.
Tall columns support exquisite canopies, and the walls are inlaid with gorgeous murals and gold and silver decorations, exuding an elegant and luxurious atmosphere.
Stepping on the soft red carpet under her feet, she felt like she was in a dreamy palace.
A huge crystal chandelier hangs in the center of a lobby ahead, dazzling like stars in the night sky.
"There are also basements and secret passages here," Li Qingying chuckled softly: "I'll take you to see it another day..."
When they came to the backyard, they finally saw Liu Xiangqin and Zhou Muning. The two women were sitting in the sun painting, Zhou Muning was writing, and Liu Xiangqin was her model, quiet and leisurely.
Seeing Li Qingying's arrival, both girls smiled.
"Sister Qingying, you're here!" Zhou Muning put down her pen and greeted her happily.
Liu Xiangqin did not get up, but looked at Xiao Lu curiously.
Li Qingying smiled and said: "Every time I came to see you before, I was extremely busy. Why are you not busy today?"
Zhou Muning curled her lips and said: "The battle is over, what's left is peace negotiation."
Then, she asked expectantly: "Can we go back after the peace talks?"
"Haha..." Li Qingying said with a smile: "You don't like staying here so much? Or don't you like this job?"
Zhou Muning said aggrievedly: "I just don't like working with Tang, and this is the first time I've been so far away from home. It would be great if I could go back to Los Angeles."
Li Qingying said: "It's something that happened here. I think Mr. Tang will give you a holiday, but it's probably impossible for him to let you go."
"I'm willing to admit defeat..."
Zhou Muning hummed and said, "It's okay if you have a holiday. Although this place is spacious, it feels cold. If Xiangqin hadn't been with me, I would have collapsed a long time ago."
"If I were really given a period of vacation, I would also like to visit my hometown in Xiangqin."
Li Qingying chuckled and said, "Then you should have a better attitude. Mr. Tang has always been soft-spoken."
"You are the only one who will spoil him like this..." Zhou Muning said dissatisfied: "I will not spoil him."
"He wouldn't dare do anything to me..."
Li Qingying smiled, then pulled Xiao Lu over and said, "I forgot to introduce you just now. This is Xiao Lu."
Then he pointed at Zhou Muning and said: "This is Zhou Muning, the eldest lady of the Chinese gang in Los Angeles. If you encounter any trouble in Los Angeles in the future, just go to her. I guarantee that everything will be properly arranged for you." "
Zhou Muning said proudly: "That's necessary!"
Li Qingying added: "That is Liu Xiangqin, a genius hacker girl, a cute Baodao girl."
"Hello Xiao Lu..." Liu Xiangqin didn't say much and spent most of his time listening.
Xiao Lu nodded politely and said: "Miss Liu, Miss Zhou, please take care of me."
"What Miss Zhou?" Zhou Muning said dissatisfiedly: "You are a friend of Sister Qingying, and you will be my friend of Zhou Muning from now on. If you think highly of me, just call me Sister Xiaoning."
The four girls soon started chatting, and with Li Qingying mediating in the middle, the atmosphere became more and more harmonious, and cheerful laughter could be heard from time to time in the backyard.
...
On the other side, Tang Songyuan also took Luo Gang to visit Peng Daoren in the hospital.
Peng Daoren is recovering fairly well and is expected to be discharged from the hospital in a few days.
Then the two went to Yang Mansion to find Yang Zhicheng.
Yang Mansion is actually the former residence of Liu Zhengxiang. This guy was the boldest rich man before, and his mansion was quite impressive.
When Tang Songyuan arrived, Yang Zhicheng was still leaning on his desk writing furiously. It wasn't until Tang Songyuan came in that he raised his head and waved his secretary to go out.
Then he stood up and greeted: "Brother Tang, I'm sorry. I've been really busy recently and didn't even go to the door to greet you."
"Please sit down quickly~!"
Tang Songyuan waved his hand carelessly, found a place to sit down, and said:
"I can completely understand this. Kokang is busy with everything, and General Peng is admitted to the hospital again. It's strange that you, the chief executive, are not busy."
Yang Zhicheng sat down with a wry smile and said, "Yes, now that Guokang's mess has been left to me, I really can't tell you how miserable I am."
"The reconstruction work is complicated and I am so busy every day that I wish I could split it into two people."
"But Brother Tang, I really want to thank you. If it weren't for your great help, both in terms of money and effort,"
"A bold peace will not come so quickly, nor will reconstruction work so smoothly..."
Tang Songyuan chuckled and said with a smile: "Brother Yang, tell me what you want to say. When you praise me, I know that things are not simple."
Yang Zhicheng also laughed when he heard this and said:
"You really can't hide anything from Brother Tang,"
Then he nodded affirmatively and said: "Yes, now we can finally see the dawn of victory. Reconstruction and reform are proceeding steadily."
"But Kokang is located in a mountainous area with few resources and inconvenient transportation. Development has become the most important issue before me."
"In the past, we relied on drugs, and later we relied on telecommunications fraud, but the facts have proven that these did not bring any benefits to the people, but instead caused them to suffer."
"So, I would like to hear Brother Tang's opinion, or help with some ideas to see if there are any good development strategies."
Tang Songyuan also frowned after hearing this. The development issue is indeed the biggest problem facing Kokang at present.
Development is the last word...
If we want to enhance our strength, we must adhere to an effective and sustainable development path.
After a while, he raised his head, looked at Yang Zhicheng and said:
"Actually, when I came here this time, I originally planned to ask Brother Yang to grant me a piece of land, and I planned to grow Chinese medicine."
"But Brother Yang said so, I think maybe we can expand the area of traditional Chinese medicine cultivation..."
