Chapter 2278: Chapter 1905: Raising the Roof
Daoist Qingyun considered his heavy task completed, reciting the Three Pure Ones fervently in his heart, while deeply admiring the two mothers for their open-mindedness and profound love for their children.
Little did he know, from his past encounters, there were never those who hadn’t asked about the offspring.
But since they came to ask, the answers they got rarely satisfied their desires, yet they remained unable to let go.
For example, some parents had a terminally ill son, yet they couldn’t bear to part with him verbally, and even tried to extract his essence to create the next generation.
As a cultivator, he refrained from judging such actions. Yet, these two mothers he now met, one was dependent on her son for survival, while the other lived in a rural environment that valued offspring greatly.
Nonetheless, their only wish seemed to be for a healthy child, which already left them content.
This unexpectedly cut down the difficulty he initially imagined by 80%.
Just...
Daoist Qingyun strolled through the back mountain of Lao Song’s family with a round belly, quietly asking:
"Wuwei, since we completed this task easily, can we really make any request?"
Daoist Wuwei felt a bit numb too.
"Then why don’t we make some suggestions first? Let’s lift the roof then discuss the windows?"
Mr. Zhou’s words made sense; Chinese people’s nature is to favor negotiation and compromise. For example, if they want a villa, it can’t just be about asking for one villa.
How about asking for 3?
"Isn’t that a bit much?"
Daoist Qingyun hesitated:
"If we directly raise the roof to increase the demands before bargaining, Boss Song might think we are asking for too much and end the cooperation, dismiss us with some money... What should we do then?"
Daoist Qingyun was overthinking it.
Due to pouring all of her funds into real estate, Song Tan now valued money a lot.
She didn’t have any money at all.
At the moment, she was pondering with Lun Chuan: "Do you think Daoist Qingyun hasn’t mentioned money because we don’t understand the market? Or is he genuinely asking for millions?"
Lun Chuan was slightly confused: "Hasn’t he mentioned it many times? He keeps saying he wants a villa."
Ah?
Song Tan was surprised: "Wasn’t that just meant to save face for me?"
The two looked at each other.
But in the end, as an ordinary person, Lun Chuan sensed the benefits more directly than Song Tan, so he confidently said:
"I don’t think those were mere polite words; he genuinely wants it."
Song Tan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
A villa was good; funding it meant building costs for her, rounding up to zero expense.
"But the villa’s completion could take at least 2 years, isn’t that granting a bit far off?"
Lun Chuan shook his head: "I don’t think Daoist Qingyun lacks money, and considering his vitality, he seems quite long-lived, so he probably doesn’t mind mere two years."
Since that’s the case...
Song Tan decisively said: "Once he settles Auntie Lu and my mom, he can have the villa however he wants; I’ll build it that way!"
Additionally, Lun Chuan suggested: "Since regular high-rise plans are to distribute freely among employees, it’s best to differentiate the apartment layouts."
Song Tan frowned slightly: "Then how should the area be planned? Can’t put ordinary employees in 80 square meters and management in 120?"
Honestly, in our rural area, whose home is just 80 square meters? That’s terribly stingy.
As Lun Chuan had invested in real estate before, he was somewhat knowledgeable in this area, so he pondered: "How about this? Ordinary employees live in mid-rise buildings of 10-20 floors, with parking levels underground. Floors one to three serve as indoor sports facilities."
Knowing Tantan planned for amenities like basketball courts, football fields, badminton, table tennis, etc., she intended to include them.
Football could go outdoors, but the rest could be arranged indoors.
As she phrased it, once the construction is underway, the additional facilities are a minor concern.
The reason for such an arrangement was that since 80% of the homes would be villas, they naturally wouldn’t be situated lower than the high-rises.
Plausibly, the high-rise plan would place the buildings at the outer slope, utilizing the natural terrain differences to minimize the shading issues.
Thus, having the first three floors as sports venues also prevents humidity in residences.
"These mid-rise buildings, planned to be freely distributed to employees, won’t need consideration for area and associated taxes, hence the usable area could be around 120 square meters."
"Next comes management."
Truth be told, they didn’t have many management staff yet, but individuals inevitably feel uneasy if everyone resides in similar accommodations.
Therefore, Lun Chuan proposed:
"A portion could be designed as seven-floor elevator apartments, with a yard and basement on the first floor, and a terrace upstairs."
"Additionally, some townhouses, not needing expansive sizes—given Chen Yuan’s excellent work, you’d want him long-term, including Master Jiang... Townhouses should fit well, right?"
