In the early morning, after Ning Fei got up, the first thing he did was contact a gold and silver jewelry store in Qincheng City.
Naturally, he was not buying jewelry, but silver needles.
He made a detailed Excel table of the specifications, size, length and quantity of each silver needle, which is equivalent to custom-making.
The owner of the jewelry store is very strange. Many customers come here to customize a set of jewelry. It is also the first time for him to see someone like Ning Fei customizing a set of silver needles.
However, after discussing the price, the boss readily agreed.
The needles used in traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture are all disposable sterile needles, which are convenient and affordable. Most of them are made of stainless steel.
The better ones are naturally gold needles and silver needles, because needles made of these two metals are straight and smooth, can withstand high temperatures, are rust-proof, and are not easily corroded by chemicals.
As for steel needles, copper needles, iron needles, etc., they are easy to corrode and have poor elasticity, toughness, and firmness, so they are not considered.
The prices of gold and silver have always been so expensive, and they have the property of "currency", which is inseparable from their characteristics.
After ordering the silver needle, Ning Fei contacted the engineering team on the mountain.
There are many projects on the mountain, whether they are government projects or private houses, so many people are engaged in professions such as plumbers, carpenters, and masons.
There are also several engineering teams.
In the early morning, Ning Fei turned on the live broadcast, made another phone call, and then went to discuss the construction with the engineering team.
As the saying goes, shop around. When looking for a project, most people must compare with several companies before contacting the construction company to buy building materials. Anyone who has done construction knows that the profit from construction is not much, and the real profit is in the materials.
In most public buildings, why do contractors give so much favor to the leaders who make the final decision? It’s because there are many promising ways in which a project fund can be used.
No matter how strict the investigation is, the kickbacks on materials cannot be found out.
To put it simply, for a five-million-dollar project, even if it is constructed strictly in accordance with formal standards, a rebate of about 700,000 yuan can be obtained. This is the reality.
Of course, Ning Fei is also a smart person. The engineering team he found is an engineering team from Qincheng below, including building materials and other projects.
"Hey, Uncle Liu, I'm here. The office on the second floor, right? Okay, I'll be up right away."
Ning Fei came downstairs to Haihe Renovation Project, put down the phone, and went up to the second floor.
"Haha, long time no see, Ning Fei."
After entering the office on the second floor, Liu Hui stood up and smiled heartily at Ning Fei.
Liu Hui is considered a legend in Qinshan Village. His parents died early and he became an orphan early. His house in Qinshan Village was just the most dilapidated earthen house, and he did not raise any poultry or livestock at home, only a little field.
He grew up eating hundreds of meals, and the one who took care of him the most was Ning Fei's master.
Later, when he was thirteen years old, he went to work in Qincheng. Although child labor was not allowed by law, you could hire a quick worker for 200 yuan a month, so naturally many people rushed to get him.
At first, he worked at the construction site, moving bricks the hardest, because bricks were counted by the number, and he could earn the most this way.
Then he started working on cement tiles, water and electricity, and gradually became the boss of a decoration company.
He suffered more than others imagined. Such ruthless people who have nothing to worry about and nothing to lose can always make their way into the world.
Liu Hui is also a very righteous person. During festivals, he will go to several families who have supported him in the past to give gifts, especially to Qingfengguan. Every year during the New Year, he sends pigs, sheep, and boxes of fruits and drinks.
Ning Fei was still young at that time, and every year he looked forward to Liu Hui coming to deliver food during the holidays, so that he could eat very well in the next few days.
"Uncle Liu, that's it. Now I plan to renovate the Taoist temple, so I came to see you." Ning Fei also smiled and said straight to the point.
"Renovate the Taoist temple? How are you going to do it? Build a new gate or install a water tower." Liu Hui put down the cigarette in his hand and asked.
Except for the Sanqing Hall, which is a historic site and has real history, the rest of Qingfeng Temple are houses made of bricks and grass and mud, which are about to be unable to hold on.
"Except Sanqing Palace, everything else is recommended." Ning Fei naturally sat across from Liu Hui's desk, took out the drawings, and handed them over.
"Full push?"
Liu Hui was stunned.
He picked up the drawings and looked at them. When he saw the first sketch of the Taoist temple drawn by Ning Fei, Liu Hui smiled helplessly, thinking that Ning Fei was still too naive and wanted to complete the project just by drawing a picture.
When building a project, you must first inspect it, then consult the user's needs, then find professionals to design the drawings, take care of water and electricity, and then start construction.
It doesn’t mean just draw a rough outline.
But Ning Fei's painting is indeed quite good. Even Liu Hui thought this Taoist temple was really beautiful after seeing it.
There are gardens, fish ponds, fields, a two-story building, the Sanqing Hall in the center, and a row of bungalows next to it as grocery rooms. It is simply a perfect design.
Liu Hui was quite interested and wanted to see what else Ning Fei drew later.
He took away the first sketch, and when he saw the second drawing, his expression changed and his brows suddenly frowned.
This is a very professional design drawing.
The drawings are square and square, and the data on them are clearly marked. A knowledgeable person can tell it at a glance. This is designed by an expert.
Then, the second and third pictures
After looking at it for a long time, Liu Hui put down the stack of drawings solemnly, and then asked: "Ning Fei, which design institute designed these drawings? The level is quite high, much better than the designers I have." .”
"Uncle Liu, don't ask. Please see if this construction can be contracted and give me a quotation." Ning Fei said again.
"Okay, I will ask my people to make a budget. Don't worry, I can't reduce the labor cost for the Qingfeng Temple project. After all, the workers have to eat. I will calculate the material cost for you based on the ex-factory price, which is lower than the market price. At least 50%”
"Thank you so much, Uncle Liu."
Now that the deal was settled, Ning Fei stood up and prepared to leave.
"By the way, Ning Fei, I heard that Master Bai left the Taoist temple? Is there any news about where he went?" Before leaving, Liu Hui asked, with some concern in his expression.
"Uncle Liu, don't worry, my master is fine." Ning Fei looked very calm, but he didn't say where his master was.
"That's good." Liu Hui nodded and said.
Then Ning Fei left Haihe to decorate. When Liu Hui comes up with the budget for repairing the Taoist temple, and once the two parties sign the contract, the Taoist temple can start construction.
Ning Fei turned off the live broadcast when negotiating the contract, and turned it on after leaving Haihe for renovation.
The drone followed him. This thing is not uncommon now. At most, people occasionally take a curious look.
"Master Guan, where are you going?"
"Wow, it's Qin Cheng. I'm your fellow anchor."
"Where is Qincheng?"
Under the curious eyes of the audience, Ning Fei walked straight into a 4S store.
"It turned out to be a car purchase."
"After selling that Blood Pearl Ganoderma for so much money, it's time to buy a car."
"I want to see the viewer's eyes."
"I heard that Qincheng's cars are very famous, and several cars are manufactured here."
As soon as Ning Fei entered the 4S store, the sales lady hurried up to greet her with a smile on her face and asked: "Hello, sir, what car do you want to see?"
"Cross-country." Ning Fei said directly.
"Okay, sir, please come this way." The sales lady extended her hand to lead the way, and her service attitude was very good. She could tell that Ning Fei really wanted to buy a car.
Salespeople can see in all directions and roughly know what the customer is thinking by looking at their expressions.
For example, if some people are hesitant and think the price is high at first glance, then the salesperson will recommend him a car with a lower price and mention a few benefits, and the other person will basically buy it.
The sales lady led Ning Fei to the off-road vehicle area. Ning Fei's attention was immediately attracted by one of the vehicles.
That was his favorite car: the JEEP Wrangler.
Since its birth, the Wrangler has been the ultimate aspiration for off-road enthusiasts around the world. It symbolizes freedom and passion, as well as the pursuit of a purer lifestyle.
Ning Fei has liked two kinds of cars since he was a child, one is a sports car and the other is an off-road vehicle. The former represents the prosperity of the city, and the latter represents the ambition to conquer.
Although I was penniless at the time, I always had to daydream.
Regardless of whether it can be realized or not, the key is that daydreaming is comfortable.
He doesn't have much money now, and he has a greater need for off-road vehicles, so this time he bought an off-road vehicle.
"Sir, you have really good taste. This is the latest 2020 Wrangler." the sales lady said immediately.
The image of the Wrangler has always been full of domineering. The timeless seven-slot grille, wide front bumper, external bonnet latch, exposed door hinges, trapezoidal wheel arches, etc. are all its unique representatives.
"Good car." Ning Fei praised, already planning to buy it.
