Reborn 92's Business Tycoon

Chapter 352: Chapter 352 New project

When they arrived at the destination, Feng Yiping and Huang Jingping wanted to stay behind to take care of their grandfather, but he refused, saying, 'You go ahead, and let your parents stay with us.' He even drove Feng Yuxuan away, so that only his daughter and son-in-law were by his side.

He didn't walk slowly after all. After walking for a while, he slowly caught up with the large group in front of him. Although it was said to be a mountain path, it was always at least one metre wide, and compared to the mountain paths at home, it was much flatter and wider.

It was the young people and middle-aged people in front of him who had been living in the city all their lives and had little exercise, so they started walking a bit faster, but then they couldn't keep up.

In comparison, although Jin Ling is a girl, her physical strength and endurance are quite outstanding. Because she has not given up Taekwondo even after moving to the capital, she has been training on her own. She could have followed Feng Yiping and Huang Jingping, but she knew the significance of this event. For the first time, the young lady lowered her stance and took care of everyone, delivering water and cheering everyone on.

As for Gao Zhiyi, the big fat guy who was supposed to do this, it was going to be tough. He was almost pushed along by Li Jia, and when they came to a steeper part of the trail, he had to ask the others for help.

The whole group was really slow going, and in the end, the person who was the biggest hindrance was still Lao Cai. Although he wasn't suffering from any illness, he was old after all, and hadn't exercised much in his usual life. He was pulled up the hill by his brother-in-law and the others in turns.

Zhou Xinyu and Mei Yiliang pulled Lao Cai up a hill, and the rest of the group sat down to rest. They all looked a little unkempt, with their sleeves rolled up and some even with their trousers rolled up. He took a bottle of water from Jinling and looked ahead to the turn in the road. Feng Yiping and Huang Jingping were still playing around, chasing each other. With a little emotion, he said, 'It's good to be young!'

Old Cai also drank water with a heavy breath and added, 'Zhou, at this time, I should be the one saying this.'

'Haha,' everyone laughed, but yes, in front of Old Cai, they were also young people.

Xu Bin looked at the specially replaced sports shoes everyone was wearing and said, 'I really want to be like Yiping, travelling the world in a pair of shoes.'

There are no sports shoes at home, and Feng Yiping doesn't want to buy any either. He is climbing the mountain today in casual leather shoes, and he doesn't feel any discomfort or inconvenience. To these people here, if you still wear leather shoes to climb a mountain, you really can't climb very fast.

'Yiping, don't you need to wait for them? I don't think they are walking easily.' Climbing up in such a rush, Huang Jingping is a little tired, and she also takes Feng Yiping's hand at this time.

'No, I'll leave the chance to show off to Sister Jin. She'll lead the main group to the top.'

An activity like this can bring people closer together more easily than several polite meetings, many heart-to-heart talks and a few dinners at the company. Everyone who participated today understood the significance.

The first to reach the top were the family members who took the cable car, including my aunt. Everyone was taking advantage of being women to have their picture taken in various poses.

The view from here is different from that from the hill by the river in the city. The city below is spread out before your eyes, and in the distance, the sea and sky meet, blue as far as the eye can see. It is exhilarating to look at, and it makes you feel heroic.

'It's so beautiful!' Breathing in the air full of negative ions in the mountains, Huang Jingping added, 'Yes, the scenery is magnificent, and that's enough. There's no need to heap on other adjectives.'

After more than half an hour, the group finally started to make their way up the mountain. Even Jin Ling, who was in good physical shape, was panting. But when they reached the top and saw the rare and beautiful view, a sense of accomplishment welled up in them.

Feng Yiping took several photos with his grandfather. Feng Yuxuan, on the other side, was still out of breath at this time, but her grandfather and parents were barely sweating.

Feng Zhenchang said, 'You, it's because you did less housework when you were little, that you can get so tired from climbing such a short mountain.'

This time, Feng Yuxuan rarely did not retort, probably because she was too tired to speak.

'Dad, Mom, you just stay with Boss Cai and Grandpa, take a look around, and take the cable car down later. We'll go first,'

this time they agreed. Physically, they refused to admit defeat, and they might even cause trouble for everyone else.

'Let's go, let's go!' Feng Yiping clapped his hands and called out to the large group, who had rested for a while, to go down the mountain. It was already getting late, and it would not be safe to delay any longer, asking these people, who were usually pampered and took their time, to walk the mountain trail.

This time, Feng Yiping took on the role of the main force. Not only did he carry more than ten bottles of water, but he also helped those who could no longer walk, going back and forth from beginning to end.

But he was very relaxed, as this was no problem at all for him, and he was more than capable!

Among all these people, Ding Qiang has the best physical fitness, except for Jin Ling. Working in a factory is different. Hong Haoran and Xu Bin have a good foundation. They should have been used to working out before, but now they have probably let themselves go. It wasn't an easy journey, and they all complained about sore calves.

This time, they finally arrived at the foot of the mountain before the family members, who were really here on holiday and were going to wait for the sunset up there!

After going up and down the mountain together, they became much more familiar with each other, and their conversation was no longer as stiff and formal as it had been when they first met. In the rented minibus, everyone else gathered around Jin Ling, who was sitting with Feng Yuxuan, asking about the general arrangements for the future of the head office, mainly about the assessment of these company managers, which was directly related to their vital interests.

Previously, Feng Yiping's assessment of them was still quite loose, mainly looking at the completion of the various tasks assigned.

Because previously, the furniture factory, logistics company, and hotel project were still in the preparatory stages, and the metal products factory had just completed the renovation of the factory building and equipment transformation. Those that could directly create benefits were Jiabin, Jiasheng Decoration, and Zhitong Company, but Jiabin still needed to continuously invest in opening new stores, so the only ones that could truly create profits for Feng Yiping were Jiasheng and Zhitong. It was not good to evaluate them based on various rigid indicators.

But next year will be different. Apart from the hotel project, everything else will be running normally. The assessment of these managers cannot be as casual as before.

Jin Ling is in a particularly good mood today, and she is like two different people from her usual aloof self. She answers whatever questions are asked. Because most of these managers were personally hired by Feng Yiping, in front of them, she, the president, still doesn't have much authority.

Feng Yiping deliberately pulled Xu Bin forward. Xu Bin thought he wanted to hear a progress report on the two hotel projects, but Feng Yiping interrupted him, 'General Manager Xu, over here, please!'

'Yes, the environment is good, the scenery is beautiful, the water quality is excellent, the beach is great, and it's an outlying island, which is similar to Hawaii, where I worked before.'

'Yes, so this place will definitely become a popular tourist destination in China in the future,'

Before he could finish his sentence, Xu Bin understood what he meant: 'Build a hotel too? But I...'

'Yes,' Feng Yiping patted him on the shoulder, 'don't complain for now. There's a shortage of staff, so hurry up and propose it to Jinling. You have good candidates in mind, or you can let the company find a way to bring them over. None of that is a problem.

I've looked at your schedule, and the first express hotel will open in the provincial capital within the lunar year. You will definitely be very busy. As for this side, I think it's not a problem to complete it after 2003, but you should finalise the preliminary work as soon as possible. After everyone leaves in a few days, you can stay a few more days to investigate. You can be more open-minded. There are still many unfinished projects along the coast, such as villa areas. See if there is anything suitable, and you can acquire one and turn it into a high-end all-villa resort hotel.

'That's fine, no problem!' In fact, Xu Bin himself also wants to do some research here.

'Regarding the selection of the project site, although you know, I still want to emphasise that the location should be good, with a good sea view and a good beach,'

'I understand.' Although the burden is heavier, Xu Bin is still very grateful that the boss is personally pressing him to complete the task.

There are places like this, whether they are unfinished villa projects or empty lots. It is definitely cost-effective to buy them now even if you have to pay a higher price. Feng Yiping is in no hurry to start construction, so he can wait a year or two. He can start the following year, or even next year. If he starts construction next year, it is possible that the building will be put into use just as SARS is raging, which would be too bad.
