Siheyuan: My name is Cao Xing, and I have a strong background
Chapter 422: Zhong Yuemin's Partner
The reason why Cao Xing wanted Hua Qianqiu to work for him was not just because of his abilities, but more importantly, he was impressed by Hua Qianqiu's unique way of dealing with people.
This trait of being well versed in human nature and good at seeing through people's hearts enables him to handle all kinds of complex interpersonal relationships with ease.
If such talents are placed in the beautiful country's environment that is full of challenges and opportunities, they will surely be able to thrive and achieve great things.
Although Charles and Tang Long are also smart and capable people, their performance is slightly lacking in some aspects.
In contrast, Hua Qianqiu can just make up for their shortcomings and make the entire team more perfect.
Cao Xing believes that as long as these talents are used properly, greater achievements will be made in the future.
After Cao Xing made arrangements for Hua Qianqiu, he left the teahouse.
He did not return to the courtyard, but walked directly in one direction.
Soon, he arrived at No. 5 Beichizi Hutong, which was his three-courtyard mansion!
This house has been renovated for more than a year now, but it still looks ordinary and inconspicuous from the outside.
However, when you actually walk into it, you will find that it is a different world inside, hiding countless amazing designs.
When Cao Xing stepped into the yard, the first thing that caught his eye was an antique screen wall.
The screen wall is carved with exquisite patterns and texts, showing the owner's cultural heritage and taste.
Going around the screen wall, there is a spacious front yard with bluestone paved on the ground. Various exotic flowers and plants are planted around it, emitting bursts of fragrance.
There is an ancient well in the middle of the yard. The water in the well is clear and transparent, like a mirror, reflecting the sky.
Continue walking along the corridor and you will enter the main hall.
The main hall is elegantly decorated with antique furniture and precious calligraphy and paintings.
Famous calligraphy and paintings are hung on the walls, adding a touch of artistic atmosphere.
Passing through the main hall, there are two courtyards at the back, which are the study and bedroom respectively.
The study is filled with all kinds of books and four treasures of the study, giving people a strong scholarly atmosphere.
The bedroom is warm and comfortable, the bed is soft, and the sunlight coming through the window shines on the bed, giving people a lazy feeling.
The whole house is full of refinement and elegance, and every detail reflects the owner's pursuit of quality of life.
Cao Xing strolled in the yard, feeling the tranquility and comfort.
This is just the appearance of this mansion.
In fact, Cao Xing put a lot of effort and thought into this house.
Not only is it equipped with a special septic tank, but also facilities such as floor heating are installed.
Through the redemption system, he obtained many of the most advanced electrical products in the world today. It can be said that he had everything without missing a single thing.
Even equipment such as backup generators were placed in the underground warehouse.
Cao Xing incorporated the decoration concepts of later generations into it, and even the pipes used for floor heating were designed and manufactured by him personally.
Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that the interior of this three-courtyard compound is one of the best residences in the world.
Cao Xing strolled to the backyard, where Zhao He and others were finishing the work.
Here in the backyard, they are cleaning every surface and directing water to the backyard, so it is no exaggeration to say that the decoration work of the entire yard is completed.
Cao Xing walked up to a young man and patted him on the shoulder.
"Zhong Yuemin, how are you doing with your studies?"
That’s right, this young man is Zhong Yuemin.
A year ago he had come here to make money and almost wanted to become the apprentice of carpenter Li Xiu, but when he heard that this was Cao Xing's residence, he was scared away.
If Li Xiu hadn't known Zhong Yuemin's father, he wouldn't have been able to persuade this kid back no matter how hard he tried.
Zhong Yuemin has been working here for a year now and has earned a lot of money.
Cao Xing spent a lot of money on this salary. Not only was food provided, but there was also meat and enough rice for every meal.
The monthly salary can reach hundreds of yuan, this kind of treatment can't be found anywhere else in the country, let alone in Beijing!
Cao Xing paid such a high salary because he really had money but had no place to spend it, and he simply wanted to give some of it away.
But the money was not wasted, these workers really worked hard.
During one incident, the floor was not laid properly, so Zhao He had it dismantled and reinstalled at his own expense. Cao Xing also saw this responsible behavior.
Regardless of anything else, as long as Cao Xing likes this house, nothing else matters!
Zhong Yuemin was frightened by the slap on his face and turned around quickly, only to see Cao Xing looking at him with a smile.
The boy was no longer afraid of him and grinned, "Brother Cao, you haven't been here for a while."
"How are the skills you are learning now? Don't just eat without learning any skills."
"Hey, I'm almost a master now."
"Stop bragging, can you really learn so fast?"
Li Xiu next to him walked over and said with a smile.
"Yue Min is a fast learner. He can do anything once he is told. He has almost learned all my skills."
Cao Xing was surprised and said, "Oh, huh? I didn't realize that you have become more capable in this year. Li Xiu, you too, don't you understand the principle of teaching your apprentice to starve the master to death?"
Zhong Yuemin refused to do it when he heard it, and immediately said: "I am not that kind of wimpy grandson, I will support my master in the future."
Cao Xing was just joking, he was also quite optimistic about Zhong Yuemin's loyalty.
In the original drama, this guy got into a lot of trouble because of his sense of loyalty.
"Okay, you are doing a good job of correcting your behavior now that you are not in society."
Li Xiu laughed and scolded, "You are wrong. This kid is learning a skill and mixing with the society at the same time. He even got into a fight a few days ago. He used the money he earned to treat his brothers to food and drinks."
"Have you invited everyone?"
Cao Xing was also speechless. Zhong Yuemin had earned more than a thousand yuan in the past year. He had no money to spend here and his family didn't need any financial support from him, but he actually spent it all. He really didn't treat money seriously.
"Money is a bastard. If we lose it, we can earn it again."
Zhong Yuemin didn't care at all. In his eyes, money was just something outside of his body and was dispensable.
Li Xiu was so angry that he laughed and couldn't help but scold: "Then you lent money to a woman, and now you have debts everywhere!"
Cao Xing looked at him in surprise again and asked, "He has no money of his own and he borrows money from others? A woman?"
Zhong Yuemin hurriedly said: "That's not someone else, it's my girlfriend, Luo Yun."
"Luo Yun?"
Cao Xing was very surprised. Luo Yun was Zhou Xiaobai's best friend, and could be said to be an extreme egoist. For the sake of her own future, she would sell out her friend without hesitation.
Zhong Yuemin actually got together with such a person. Cao Xing couldn't help but observe three seconds of silence for him.
"How much money did you borrow?"
After asking this question, Zhong Yuemin immediately lowered his head and dared not say a word.
Li Xiu said, "He borrowed several dozen from each of us. Lao Zhao and I each lent him two hundred. I really don't know what he did with the money."
Zhong Yuemin said hurriedly: "She is not an outsider. Can my girlfriend use her money to buy things? Besides, I will earn it back in a few months and pay you back then."
Hearing this, Cao Xing was so angry that he laughed. He really wanted to slap him twice, so he said angrily.
"You're just paying it back, it's a miracle you can pay it back!"
