After a brief chat, the two established a basic understanding.
At Zhao Tong's request, Han Lang first took him to inspect every corner of the villa complex.
Then, he unfolded the villa complex's planning map and stated his ideas and requirements one by one.
"I want to put a fountain here..."
"I think a fish pond could go here..."
"This area can serve as a public activity center, with some fitness equipment and such..."
"This villa will be converted into the management and security departments, and the one next to it can be made into an art and culture center..."
...
Han Lang's thoughts were scattered, narrating his ideas in a disjointed manner. Zhao Tong, on the other hand, listened quietly throughout, occasionally nodding along.
Only after Han Lang finished did he propose his suggestions one by one, following Han Lang's order.
"I think the fish pond and the fountain can be combined, with some flowers and plants planted around them. This will not only save space but also allow residents to enjoy the flowers and fish when they have leisure time."
"We can utilize the space saved by the fountain for the public activity center. We can place some fitness equipment here, and a small playground in the middle. On the other side, we can build some grape trellises with stone tables and benches underneath. This way, in the summer, elders and children can gather here to cool off, making it lively."
"This place is very suitable for the management and security department dormitories. However, in the courtyard of the cultural and artistic center, I suggest digging a swimming pool."
"Furthermore, if your villa complex is mainly for upper-class individuals, I can apply to the Urban Construction Department for an expansion. The expanded area can be divided into zones for golf courses, tennis courts, and other sports facilities..."
...
Seeing the usually introverted and unconfident Zhao Tong now speaking eloquently, Han Lang couldn't help but sigh.
Was this the same person?
At the same time, Han Lang was deeply impressed by Zhao Tong's ability to connect his illogical ideas and improve upon them.
This was no intern!
An experienced senior designer wouldn't be any better!
Given the chance, he could even transform the entire villa complex into an amusement park!
Han Lang was both surprised and delighted, feeling fortunate to have found a gem, and had thoroughly accepted this shy boy.
"Alright, your ideas are excellent. We'll proceed entirely with your plan. However, there's one very important thing I need to tell you."
As he spoke, he pointed to the location of the "King Villa."
"In the courtyard of that villa, and at the four cardinal corners of the entire villa complex, I need stone pillars that connect to the soil and are extremely difficult to damage! Preferably, they should be connected to the entire mountainside."
Han Lang's request was undoubtedly preparation for setting up formations in the future, and making the stone pillars unshakeable was also to prevent man-made damage.
However, Zhao Tong couldn't help but frown upon hearing this request.
"Mr. Han, may I know the specific purpose of these stone pillars?"
Han Lang certainly wouldn't reveal his true intentions, merely fabricating a lie.
"Oh, this. I specifically consulted a feng shui master. Only by constructing these pillars properly can the future residents live in peace and safety. Otherwise, there's a concern of offending the mountain gods!"
Zhao Tong naturally didn't believe in such supernatural theories. However, he expressed understanding regarding Han Lang consulting someone about feng shui.
"If that's the case, I suggest hiding the four pillars in the north, south, east, and west within the surrounding fences. This way, it can satisfy the feng shui master's requirements without affecting the overall aesthetics of the villa complex."
"As for the one in the center, if it can be designed to resemble the courtyard fountain, it won't appear abrupt. Connecting to the soil is easy; we just need to make the pillars hollow. As for connecting them to the mountainside..."
Zhao Tong thought carefully and then said.
"The cost for this might be quite high. We need to deepen the foundation as much as possible, and designing it with a wider base and a narrower top, like a bottle mouth, should largely meet your requirements!"
"Clap, clap!"
After hearing Zhao Tong's explanation, Han Lang couldn't help but applaud him.
"As expected of a top architecture student, you've thought of everything. I'm very satisfied with your plan, and we'll proceed with these standards!"
Saying this, he took out a black bank card from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Tong.
"Since you're now solely responsible for my project, I'll entrust you with this fifty million, along with this entire villa complex!"
"The general direction of renovation should follow what we've just discussed. If you have any other ideas, feel free to implement them boldly. As long as you don't alter the feng shui pillars I requested, I will fully support you!"
"If the money isn't enough, just let me know anytime."
"Also, Zhao Tong, I truly think you're amazing! And at such a young age, you should have more confidence in yourself!"
Han Lang's words, coupled with the bank card in front of him, almost brought tears to Zhao Tong's eyes from emotion.
At the same time, he felt a surge of goodwill towards this client who was around his age.
At the very least, entrusting him with the project funds so casually demonstrated immense trust!
With this thought, he gratefully accepted the bank card from Han Lang and bowed respectfully to Han Lang.
"Thank you for your trust and encouragement, Mr. Han. I will surely live up to your expectations!"
Han Lang quickly helped him up.
"What are you doing? Get up, get up. I'm merely stating facts, there's no need for this!"
Zhao Tong was about to say more when Han Lang's phone rang.
"Hello, Little Doctor. Where are you? Han Kang has woken up. Do you want to come over?"
"Really? How is he feeling? Wait for me for a moment, I'll be right there!"
As he spoke, he gestured to Zhao Tong that he had an urgent matter and needed to leave.
Zhao Tong, still immersed in his emotions from earlier, waved goodbye to Han Lang and watched him get into the car step by step, completely forgetting about how he was supposed to get down the mountain in this desolate area.
It wasn't until Han Lang started the engine and drove off at speed that he realized with horror.
Then, he chased after the car, waving his hands vigorously and shouting.
"I haven't gotten in the car yet, Mr. Han!"
"Wait for me, Mr. Han, I haven't gotten in the car yet!"
"If you leave, how will I get down the mountain!"
Han Lang looked at Zhao Tong's waving figure in the rearview mirror, mistaking it for reluctance to part with him. He smiled with satisfaction, remarking.
"Educated people are indeed different, so enthusiastic!"
With that, he accelerated, disappearing from Zhao Tong's sight!
