274 Two Skies On a Mountain (1/2)
”Alright, how much is the design fee?”
”Design fee?” Tian Yuantu replied. ”I'm not going to take your money for this small matter.”
”Okay then. Let's meet up with Mingbao and the others some other day. It's my treat.”
”Sure.”
After staying on the hill for more than an hour, Tian Yuantu and his wife left.
The refreshing feeling disappeared immediately when they started to descend Nanshan Hill. The air became a lot hotter. The distance was just about 10 meters on the same mountain, but Tian Yuantu felt like he was under two different skies.
”How do you think he did it?”
”Perhaps it has something to do with the plants?” Xu Jiahui replied.
”He's a young man who always surprises people.” This was Tian Yuantu's comment about Wang Yao when he was having a conversation with his wife a few months ago.
Now, it seemed that his judgment was correct.
In the car, before they could get back to Lianshan County, Tian Yuantu's mobile phone rang. He was slightly stunned when he saw the caller ID.
”Hello, President Sun.”
The caller was Sun Zhengrong.
”Yuantu, are you busy at the moment?” On the other end of the phone, Sun Zhengrong sounded unusually gentle and friendly. Tian Yuantu thought he had heard it wrong.
He knew very well how domineering the prestigious President Sun was in Dao City. His stratagems were aggressive and he never changed his tone. It was not the first time that they had contacted each other. It was, however, Tian Yuantu's first time to hear such a tone from President Sun.
”You're driving. I'll call you later then.”
”I'll return your call in a moment.”
After the phone call, Tian Yuantu felt very confused. Why would President Sun call me all of a sudden? Was there something wrong?
”Who was it?” Xu Jiahui asked.
”Sun Zhengrong.”
”Him? What did he call you for?”
”I don't know.”
Both of them were very baffled. No matter what they thought, they probably would not be able to associate this matter together with Wang Yao. In fact, Sun Zhengrong was still in Jing City. He had been thinking about Wang Yao a lot these past few days. Although he knew that Wang Yao was in Lianshan County, Lianshan County was neither big nor small. Through his indirect sources, he knew that Dr. Wang lived like a hermit and did not want to be disturbed by strangers. He thought for a long time and suddenly remembered that Wang Yao went to Dao City with Tian Yuantu before. Hence, he immediately gave Tian Yuantu a call.
”Wang Yao?”
After hearing the name when Tian Yuantu returned Sun Zhengrong's call, Tian Yuantu instantly understood Sun Zhengrong's intention behind calling him.
He wanted to ask Wang Yao to treat his son.
”Yes, I know him. I'll help you find out where he stays. Alright, alright.” Tian Yuantu did not reveal where Wang Yao was staying to Sun Zhengrong.
After hanging up, Tian Yuantu called Wang Yao right away and told him about it.
”Don't tell him for the time being,” Wang Yao said after contemplating for a while. ”I apologize. This matter puts you in an awkward position.”
”It's okay,” Tian Yuantu replied with a laugh.
To Tian Yuantu's slight surprise, after hearing his reply, Sun Zhengrong, on the other end of the phone, did not sound dissatisfied at all. It seemed that he had already guessed the result.
Looks like I need to make a trip to Lianshan County as soon as possible. Sun Zhengrong looked out at the bustling Jing City outside through the glass window.
It's no better here than Dao City. This was Wang Yao's opinion as well.
In the afternoon, Wang Yao carefully read the two design proposals brought by Tian Yuantu in the cottage. After comparing several times, Wang Yao directly gave up on the proposal designed by Tian Yuantu's internal personnel. Professor Lu was indeed a well-known figure in this industry. His designs were exceptional. Wang Yao thought about it carefully and made some modifications based on the aspects of medication and the Five Lines according to the knowledge he obtained through the system.
”Okay, that's it!”
After the proposal was finalized, the next step was to start the construction. Tian Yuantu was naturally asked to do it.
Demolishing the old houses, laying the foundations, and building new houses; this amount of work was nothing to Jiahui Group's construction team.
When the medical center is opened, I don't have to run around anymore.
At night, Wang Mingbao returned to the village and specifically went to Wang Yao's house.
The buddies chatted for quite some time.
”Are you free tomorrow?”
”I plan to go into town tomorrow morning to see how Wei Hai and Kang are recovering from their illnesses and to drop by Brother Zhao Tian's company.”
He had asked Wang Mingbao to meet up in Lianshan County the next morning.
