Chapter 277: Listening to the Wind Garden
The next day, Song Anran, Gao Yuhan, and Ling Xinran drove for more than an hour and came to the ancient town of Liuzhuang in the western suburbs of Linquan!
Lily, who didn't want to see the scenery, stayed in Linquan with Xuanxuan and began to deal with the things discussed yesterday!
Yesterday, Song Anran also talked to Shen Taihe on the phone!
Although Shen Taihe loudly reprimanded on the phone, Old Man Shen died because of Song An, it was purely a rumor, and the enemy deliberately destroyed the relationship between the two sides, and said that Shen Zhixin was only deceived for a while, and he would figure it out after all.

But the keen Song Anran still felt the changes in Shen Taihe, full of clichés and official propaganda!
After hanging up the phone, Song Anran was very sad, and the relationship with the Shen family had finally changed from a friend to an enemy!
He talked to Xian Xi on the phone again!
The latter told Song Anran that there was still a rumor spreading in the capital, saying that he had taken refuge in Old Man Wu, and under the instruction of Old Man Wu, he turned the clouds and rain, with the purpose of destroying the Shen family!
Forked, Song Anran felt angry and powerless, and this rumor made him a little overwhelmed!
He felt that there was an invisible net, quietly falling towards him!
The only way Song Anran thought of was to break the situation with force, and at the worst of all, he had the ability to break the net, so that the other party would not dare to act rashly!
After consulting with Lily, Song Anran decided to speed up the pace of recruiting disabled retired special forces!
Originally, the fastest way was to ask Old Man Wu to help, but Song Anran was a little scared!
In his eyes, Old Man Wu is also an old man, a thousand-year-old demon-like figure, who knows if there is any calculation in his heart!
Lily said that in her past fighting career, she knew a few trustworthy people who had fought together, and she would ask them to help and introduce some reliable people!
For Lily, Song Anran believes it 100%!
For Song Anran, the only thing he can really believe at present is the woman who shares the bed with him, thinking of this, he feels that he is quite pathetic!
But whatever the status quo and prospects, life has to go on!
Lily and Xuanxuan stayed in Lin Quan, using her secret identity when she went on a previous mission to quietly contact her former friends!
Song Anran and a few people came to Liuzhuang!
Finally passed through the crowded Liuzhuang, the off-road vehicle stopped directly in front of the two antique gates, Song Anran said with a smile: "This is what Shen Zhixin said, the Fei family bought me at the price, and the transfer price was nearly 500 million yuan in Tingfeng Garden!"
"Old man Fei personally introduced to me that this manor was purchased by him more than 20 years ago, and it was basically abandoned at that time, and he spent a lot of effort to renovate it, imitating the Lingering Garden!
"Huh......"
After getting off the bus, Song Anran found that the thick iron-clad wooden gate of Tingfeng Garden was closed, and a notice board was hung at the door, which read: "The owner has something to do to close the garden, and tourists are not allowed to visit!"
Song Anran also found that many tourists saw this notice or returned disappointed, or scolded!
Gao Yuhan, who got out of the car closely, asked curiously: "An Ran, isn't this a private manor?
Song Anran, who was puzzled, stepped forward and knocked on the door!
There was a few knocks, and an impatient voice soon came from inside: "What knock, don't you see the notice? The park is closed for the past few days and is not open to visitors!"
Song Anran still keeps knocking!
A wooden door was slammed open, and a face full of vicissitudes was poked out, and he scolded impatiently: "How are you ...... Oh, Song Gongzi, you're here!"
His face was like a chameleon, and he was instantly full of wrinkles with a smile, and while eagerly opening the door, he said, "Song Gongzi, hello! The Fei family has already given us a notice and sent us your photo! In the past few days, we have been waiting for your arrival!"
"My name is Wang Dafu, and I am the gatekeeper and conductor of Tingfeng Garden, Song Gongzi, please!"
Song Anran gave the car key to Wang Dafu and asked him to park the car, and he led Ling Xinran and Gao Yuhan to turn around the wall and enter the Tingfeng Garden!
Walking slowly in the listening wind garden, the heavy eaves are stacked on top of the building, the corridor of the courtyard, and the strange peaks and beautiful stones come into view from time to time!
The pavilions and pavilions are uneven, the winding corridors are continuous, and the halls, corridors, pink walls, cave doors and other buildings are matched with rockeries, pools, flowers and trees, etc., which are combined into garden sketches with their own styles, which is quite wonderful to change the scenery step by step!
Song Anran looked at it for a while, and then noticed that he had not seen the traces of life and buildings such as wires, cement pillars, air conditioners, etc., even if it was a street lamp, it was cleverly placed in the antique lighting, and he really couldn't find it if he didn't pay attention!
He nodded and secretly praised, the Fei family really put a lot of thought into renovating this manor!
Wandering in this Ming and Qing Dynasty style buildings, without the hustle and bustle of cars, Song Anran has the feeling of traveling back to ancient times!
At this time, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes in his forties hurriedly greeted him: "Song Gongzi, hello! I am Fei Mingda, the housekeeper of Tingfeng Garden!"
Song Anran asked with interest: "People from the Fei family?"
Fei Mingda smiled awkwardly and said, "The relationship with the Fei family in the capital has long been out of the five suits, so it can be regarded as barely a little bit of kinship!"
Song Anran nodded, didn't ask, and asked instead: "Fei Mingda, I saw a notice in front of the door that tourists are not allowed to visit, what is going on? Is this manor still a tourist attraction?"
"Yes, it's still a well-known attraction!"
Fei Mingda hurriedly explained: "Liuzhuang Ancient Town itself is a well-known tourist spot, and we listen to the Wind Garden, Song Gongzi you have also seen, although it is built in imitation of the Lingering Garden, but the architectural layout is exquisite, the scenery is unique, not much worse than the domestic famous garden, many people are admired!"
"The people of the Fei family, that is, in summer and autumn, will invite friends to come over to stay and have a while!"
"Usually most of this place is empty, so with the consent of Mr. Fei, this place is also open to tourists!
Speaking of this, Fei Mingda looked at Song Anran and said cautiously: "Of course, now I listen to Fengyuan to be owned by Gongzi! Whether these side businesses are still open to the outside world depends on what you mean!"
Song Anran looked around noncommittally and continued to ask, "How is the business of these side businesses?"
Fei Mingda shook his spirits and said: "The income from tourist tickets is 50 yuan per person, and the annual income ranges from 3 to 4 million! The restaurant accepts reservations, with a maximum of 16 tables per day, and the annual income is about 5 million! There are only 15 guest rooms, and the annual income is about 1.5 million!"
"There is also a rental income, there are film and television companies, wedding studios or large companies come to rent, this part of the income is uncertain, but on average, there are about two million per year!"
"After deducting taxes, employee salaries and various costs, these side hustles can bring five or six million profits to Tingfeng Park every year, which is enough to cope with the daily maintenance of Tingfeng Garden, and in good times, there can be a surplus of one or two million per year!"
Song Anran asked, "So, I heard that Fengyuan hired a lot of employees?"
Seeing that Song Anran's face was not angry or happy, Fei Mingda was a little bottomless in his heart, and said with some apprehension: "Listening to the daily maintenance of Fengyuan, there are four garden gardeners, three maintenance workers, two electricians, and five cleaners, a total of fourteen people!"
"In terms of tourism, there are five staff members, there are eleven people in the restaurant, and there are six people in the guest rooms! In addition, there are three treasurers, six security guards, and I am a total of forty-six people!"
Song Anran was a little surprised, he didn't expect this small Tingfeng Garden to feed so many people!
"Fei Mingda, it's the New Year's Day holiday, and there are a lot of tourists!
Fei Mingda couldn't figure out what Song Anran was thinking, so he could only tell the truth: "There is this reason! There is another reason, there is a TV crew filming in the park now, and in order to avoid disturbance, they have wrapped up most of the garden! In this case, we simply closed the Tingfeng Garden and no longer received tourists!"
"Song Gongzi, the investor of this TV crew is your old acquaintance, and he said that he wanted to talk to you, please come with me!"
