When they arrived at the Maulfa campus, Lin Yilong and Nils transferred to a construction company car to a helipad in Ness, and Lin Yilong did a lot of homework for today's trip, and booked a helicopter to take them to the forest farm site a week and a half ago.

Like Party A in Celestial Empire Construction, although the contractor Lin Yilong contacted was this company, they also subcontracted some of the projects, such as laying pipelines and building bridges, which would be completed by different subcontractors.

Don't think that Westerners don't accept commercial red envelopes, an open fact is that this part will be written in the valuation report and financial statements as a commission and service fee, and it is legal and reasonable. This time, he just asked Nils to contact the construction company he thought was the most suitable, and for the sake of the two having known each other for many years, he only charged Lin Yilong 5,000 pounds for the introduction fee and 2,000 pounds for the lawyer's fee. The 7,000 pounds is already a loss to Nils personally - if it were not for Lin Yilong but an ordinary client doing the same work, such a large project, Nils could get 15,000 pounds of introduction fees for the construction company and still be able to collect 2,000 pounds of legal fees from the client - 10,000 yuan less, which can be regarded as a kind of feedback to Lin Yilong for entrusting him with a complete set of property legal services such as the investigation, registration and removal of rights from the main land of the forest farm.

The current progress of the project does not require subcontractors, and it is only at the stage where the construction debris and foundation of the town's houses and roads have just been cleared, and the main task of the construction company is now to pour the gate of Lin Yilong's forest farm.

"From the A4107 road to the southern foothills of Bracken, it's all your property. Before this, Nils did not know how big Lin Yilong's forest farm was, and all the investigation work was entrusted to a special survey evaluator and Nils's own assistant. After getting on the helicopter, he was able to proudly draw a boundary to Lin Yilong based on the vegetation and geographical boundaries.

"It's a little too big, doesn't it look that big on the map?" Lin Yilong sighed, "The road to the main building is three miles long, and it will be troublesome to order something on Amazon or order food delivery in the future." “

The entrance to the forest farm at the northern end of Mastach and the access road to his forest farm house are two miles in a straight line, considering the terrain and road texture, this asphalt road that was originally used to connect the two towns has been stretched into a full three miles long, if Lin Yilong rides a bicycle, it will take at least 20 minutes to reach the forest farm gate from the residence, and the gate is only 10 minutes to the center of Mastach town.

"So, try not to order takeout. Nils quipped, "It could be an opportunity to maintain a healthy body." ”

Nils's sneer joke amused both Lin Yilong and the engineering manager. Lin Yilong was not too interested in this kind of joke about himself, and smiled very reluctantly.

"I guess the winter will be difficult, I think the snow in Bracken Mountain will be very bad, and I hope there won't be any flooding. Lin Yilong muttered to himself, which happened to be heard by the manager of the construction company sitting opposite.

"Nothing is a big deal. The manager of the construction company shared Lin Yilong's concerns, "The main buildings of the forest farm are built on a mountain platform halfway up the mountain, and the rock layer under the soil is very solid. There wasn't much water around, and the source of the creek next to the building was on that mountain..... of the valley. ”

As he spoke, the project manager pointed to the location of the valley stream in the middle of the two peaks closest to the forest farm house, but unfortunately because of the obstruction of the trees, he could not see it, and what Lin Yilong practiced was still a vast sea of books.

"Where?" Lin Yilong asked, and then he reacted that it would seem unscrupulous to ask such a question, "Is there any other way to let me know that there is only such a stream flowing through the mesa?"

"You see, there are streams on both sides of the mountain, but on the terrace of the town of Greengwehe, where the house is located, only one stream runs down the hill, and the other hilltop streams flow from all sides to the outside, and some lead to the Ness. Seeing that the stream was hidden by the trees, the project manager pointed to the direction of several water streams around the top of the mountain and explained to Lin Yilong, "During our survey, we only found this small stream, the one that directly connects to Mastach. ”

"That's right!" Lin Yilong showed an unclear look and nodded to the engineering manager.

"So, even if the town of Mastach and the gates of the forest farm turn into a sea of oceans, you can be sure that you are safe here. "The manager of the engineering company seems to be confident in this regard.

After two laps around the forest farm, the helicopter flew back to Ness. The three of them returned the same way and sat in the reception room of the construction company.

"Are you satisfied with the progress of our work?" asked the engineering manager, "because it takes time to level the main building, so it's a little late." ”

"I can understand the slow work. Lin Yilong replied, "But I still want to know an approximate time, when the forest farm house and outbuildings will be delivered, and I want to spend the winter there before the winter rainy season comes." ”

"Sorry, we can't do that. The construction period should wait until May and June next year according to the schedule. The manager replied, "The main reason is that there is a shortage of workers right now, and another reason is that it takes a certain amount of time for the equipment to come in." ”

"I watched those TV shows that the general construction period is only about 7 months. Lin Yilong complained.

Hearing Lin Yilong's complaint, the manager explained very patiently: "Mr. Lin, because the entire forest farm building is based on the plan of the architect you contacted, the process of realizing the requirements in the plan is very complicated, this is a conservative estimate that we have carefully calculated, and it is not that we intentionally or unintentionally delay time because of remuneration or other economic considerations. ”

Hearing this news, Lin Yilong was half discouraged, he had seen countless times the high efficiency of building a residential house on TV, and sure enough, in the real world, that kind of efficiency can only be a certain program effect. He had expected to see the completion of the main building of the forest farm at the end of October, but it seems that this wish has become an extravagant hope and is difficult to realize.

"I think you're experts in the field of construction, so let's just follow the schedule you said. Lin Yilong said helplessly, not planning to continue arguing with the builder about the area he didn't understand, "What about the budget?"

"No problem, we've booked all the necessary engineering materials, and as long as there is no small probability event such as a pound crash that will increase labor costs, we should be able to deliver a beautiful house that satisfies you within budget, and we shouldn't ask for more. The construction manager gave Lin Yilong such assurances.
