Courtyard House: My Wife is Xu Huizhen

Page 766

At this time, Huo Yingdong, who had previously promised to send someone to provide support, did indeed arrive as promised.

As the newcomer was introduced to He Yuzhu, the introducer said:

"This is Mr. Joe Ma, who will be mainly responsible for daily management and related work from now on."

He Yuzhu nodded slightly to indicate that he understood, then extended his right hand to shake hands with Ma Dezhong in a friendly manner, and smiled to welcome him to the team.

In fact, during the previous call, Fok Ying-tung had already given Ho Yu-chu a detailed introduction to Ma Tak-chung's situation.

It turns out that Ma Dezhong previously served as the deputy manager, mainly responsible for overall work arrangements, and had many years of rich work experience.

Huo Yingdong then enthusiastically introduced:

"This gentleman is named Alex Fong. He's a professional with an engineering license! We'll be relying on him for our technical and design work from now on."

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu's face immediately broke into a bright smile. He stood up, stretched out his hands, and firmly grasped Fang Lishen's hands to express his heartfelt welcome.

After everyone took their seats, they chatted casually for a while, creating a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. However, not long after, Huo Yingdong glanced at his watch, got up, said goodbye to everyone, and left.

At that time, there were still many unused areas in the office building on the dock.

He Yuzhu thought to himself that these places were perfect for Fang Lishen and Liao Lieying to plan and use properly.

So he personally led the two on a detailed tour of the entire office building to give them a better understanding of it.

During this process, they walked and talked about their ideas and expectations for their future work environment.

After the three finished their familiarization tour of the office, they immediately held a small meeting in a spacious and bright conference room.

At the meeting, everyone shared their thoughts and suggestions on the upcoming work, and the discussion was very lively.

The next morning, sunlight shone through the thin clouds and fell softly on the earth.

Liao Lieying arrived at the dock with seven or eight spirited people.

The person walking at the front is Liao Jiahao. He is mainly responsible for logistics and related work, and he is also Liao Lieying's cousin.

The other people following behind him came from various departments of the construction company, making them a group of talented individuals.

In this way, with both a leadership team and middle-level backbone, if some grassroots staff are recruited to fill the gaps, then the basic structure of this construction company can be considered to be initially completed.

After everyone had gotten to know each other, a brief but crucial meeting began.

He Yuzhu sat at the head of the conference table, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, before clearing his throat and saying:

"Dear colleagues, starting today, we are officially embarking on this journey full of challenges and opportunities! Our primary task at present is to complete the recruitment work as soon as possible so that the entire office can operate efficiently."

At the same time, I also want to clarify the specific tasks for everyone going forward, with the focus, of course, being those three projects that have already been confirmed..."

The division of labor is quite clear! As the manager of this construction company, Joe Ma's primary task is to recruit talent.

Alex Fong was entrusted with an important task and appointed as the deputy manager. His primary task was to personally conduct in-depth on-site investigations and carefully conceive and formulate detailed and practical design plans.

Meanwhile, another deputy manager, Liao Jiahao, had an equally important mission: to prepare goods and arrange everything necessary for the start of operations in an orderly manner.

After He Yuzhu finished his introduction, Ma Dezhong couldn't help but ask:

"Boss, regarding this contractor, should we outsource it or try to complete it ourselves?"

After all, there are many different operating models in the real estate development field today.

Prior to this, He Yuzhu had only finalized a specific project, and at that time, almost all the design and construction processes were outsourced to third-party professional construction companies.

However, now that they have established their own construction companies, the design aspects can naturally be handled by their internal staff. Even so, many construction companies still choose to outsource the construction work to third-party engineering companies.

Faced with Ma Dezhong's question, He Yuzhu confidently replied:

“Right in Tuen Mun, there is a very capable construction team. The leader of this team is named Ah Hung, and he has more than 30 experienced construction workers under his command, as well as several transport vehicles. Now, I have successfully brought this team under our company and made it our own construction team.”

It turned out that just yesterday, Du Guanghe had specifically sought out Ah Xiong and directly expressed his interest in acquiring the construction team he led. Ah Xiong was clearly extremely surprised by this sudden turn of events.

At first, Ah Xiong was extremely resistant to selling his construction team.

However, to everyone's surprise, Du Guanghe easily knocked Ah Xiong to the ground three times in a row with just one hand.

This scene instantly turned the once majestic Brother Bear into a helpless little bear cub, who could only nod in agreement with heartfelt admiration.

It should be noted that while force can certainly be a powerful safeguard in the acquisition process, Du Guanghe did not take this opportunity to deliberately lower the price.

Instead, he offered a fairly reasonable price and successfully brought the entire construction team under his wing.

Ah Xiong, who used to be the boss, transformed into the captain of the new team and took on the important responsibility of managing the daily work of his workers.

Facing this team of only thirty-odd people, Ah Xiong couldn't help but frown and say:

"The number of people is really too small. We need to continue recruiting new people."

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu nodded slightly in agreement and further instructed:

"You should discuss the specific number of people to be recruited and the relevant job arrangements, and then write a detailed plan and submit it to me. Whether it's ordinary workers at the grassroots level, architects, middle managers, or even senior managers, as long as they are suitable talents, we should try to recruit them all."

In fact, although He Yuzhu is currently facing some financial difficulties, small expenses like this for expanding the staff are not an unbearable burden for him.

After all, his watch and radio business was thriving, generating a considerable daily income that was enough to support the company's continued growth.

Then, everyone began a lively discussion about how to plan this brand-new construction company.

Everyone shared their opinions and offered many constructive ideas and suggestions. The meeting continued until nightfall before finally coming to a temporary close.

In the evening, to thank everyone for their hard work throughout the day and for the initial results achieved through their joint discussions, He Yuzhu generously hosted a banquet for everyone.

During this lively banquet, the exchanges between them became more in-depth, and their understanding of each other became more thorough and comprehensive.

After a hearty meal and drinks, He Yuzhu returned to his rented apartment, slightly drunk.

Instead of going to her own room, she staggered to the door of the room where the Peach Sisters lived and gently knocked on it.

A moment later, the door slowly opened, and the Peach Sisters were both taken aback when they saw He Yuzhu standing at the door, his face flushed and his head slurred with drunkenness.

"Oh dear! What happened to you? How could you drink so much?"

One of the women, named Peach, rushed forward, supported the swaying He Yuzhu, and asked with concern.

As she spoke, she carefully helped He Yuzhu to the sofa inside the room, allowing him to sit down comfortably.

Immediately afterwards, another woman quickly turned around and went into the kitchen to prepare tea to help He Yuzhu sober up.

Before long, a steaming cup of strong tea was served to He Yuzhu.

"You really are something, drinking so much alcohol all at once, don't you feel unwell?"

At this moment, Ruan Mi, who was sitting to the side, looked at the man in front of her who was already drunk and unconscious, and couldn't help but start muttering to herself.

However, He Yuzhu did not seem to fully heed her concern and reproach, and just smiled with satisfaction.

Just then, fueled by the alcohol, He Yuzhu suddenly became bold.

Without warning, he reached out his right hand and hugged Ruan Mi, who was standing next to him.

Faced with this sudden action, Ruan Mi was clearly caught off guard at first and was completely stunned.

When she came to her senses, she found that He Yuzhu's hand was already firmly on her shoulder.

Instantly, a feeling of shyness welled up in her heart, causing her originally fair face to flush bright red.

At this moment, she was extremely conflicted. She wanted to break free from He Yuzhu's arm and escape from this place, but she was also worried that doing so would be too impolite.

However, if they continue to stay here, they don't know how to deal with what might happen next.

Just as the atmosphere between the two was becoming increasingly awkward, a crisp question broke the silence.

"What are you two doing?" It turned out to be another woman—Ruan Tao—who walked in.

She immediately noticed He Yuzhu's hand on Ruan Mi's shoulder and Ruan Mi's shy and embarrassed appearance.

Upon hearing her sister's question, Ruan Mi sprang up from the sofa like a startled rabbit, waving her hands wildly in an attempt to cover up her current situation.

At the same time, she explained incoherently, "No...nothing, Brother He was drunk, I just helped him over."

Ruan Tao frowned, her gaze first falling on He Yuzhu. Seeing that he was indeed completely drunk, her doubts lessened slightly.

However, when she turned to look at the coffee table, she found a cup of steaming hot tea on it.

This detail made her wonder: if Brother He was already so drunk, when was this strong tea brewed? Could it be...?

Then he turned his gaze to his sister, only to see her face filled with suspicion. Just moments ago, that Brother He had gently placed his hand on her shoulder!

This scene made Ruan Mi's heart suddenly skip a beat, and for some reason, a strange sense of guilt welled up in her heart.

She hurriedly said, "I...I need to go to the bathroom." Before she finished speaking, she turned around and ran away as fast as a startled rabbit.

Ruan Tao watched her sister's departing figure and slowly sat down.

She picked up the teacup in front of her, feeling the warmth emanating from the cup, and her displeasure only intensified.

Hmph, it must be my sister trying to curry favor with Brother He while he's drunk!

Thinking about this, Ruan Tao couldn't help but feel uneasy:

Could it be that my sister also has feelings for Brother He? Although she had this thought in her mind, she didn't stop what she was doing. She picked up the cup of strong tea and carefully fed it to He Yuzhu.

After He Yuzhu drank the tea, Ruan Tao said softly:

"Brother He, we've already tidied up your room for you."
