Chapter 97: Bidding

Lin Qingrou still didn't see Lin Qinghe, and she didn't receive any response from him on the phone. It was already the second day, and Lin Qinghe had disappeared without a trace since the afternoon when she brought her to Xiushan.

This brother always seems to like to play missing, but Lin Qingrou thought that since he came to Xiushan for business, then Lin Qinghe must be busy with this, and he believed that Lin Qinghe would definitely appear in front of him at the right time.

Lin Qingrou went to the mall today, but she never picked a satisfactory style of clothes from these malls. But it's not that she doesn't think the clothes look good, and it's not that there is no style that suits her, but she always feels that those clothes that cost tens of thousands of yuan are too expensive. She also thought about buying a relatively cheap one, but when she thought that Lin Qinghe would not be satisfied by then, she would definitely ask her to buy it again.

In this way, Lin Qingrou was entangled and never bought suitable clothes. At noon, Zhou Yi came to her and wanted to take her to the interesting scenic spots in Xiushan for sightseeing. Although Lin Qingrou felt that it was not appropriate to trouble Zhou Yi so much, at Zhou Yi's insistence, they still went out together.

Zhou Yi told Lin Qingrou about Du Zeming's search for him. Of course, he didn't mention the confrontation between the two, for fear that Lin Qingrou would feel burdened by this. Although Lin Qingrou knew from Zhao Xi that Du Zeming was currently in Xiushan, she was also ready to bump into him at any time. But she didn't expect that Du Zeming would look for Zhou Yi first, I don't know if Zhao Xi inadvertently revealed his news in Xiushan, or if Du Zeming himself noticed some clues.

But since you can't escape it, it's better to wait for the day we meet in a calm mood.

"I know he may have been treating you badly again, and I'm sorry." Lin Qingrou gestured to Zhou Yi and said.

"No, you don't have to apologize to me for him, you're you and he's him, aren't you?" Zhou Yi said with a smile.

Lin Qingrou was led by Zhou Yi all afternoon to visit the beautiful scenery of Xiushan. The natural scenery of this area is indeed very attractive, not only the beautiful seaside scenery and the vastness of the city, but also the many scenic spots surrounded by mountains and historical monuments. Zhou Yi also took Lin Qingrou to Ocean Park, where the dolphin show is very famous.

It was the first time for Lin Qingrou to have such a close encounter with these lovely sea creatures, and her cute appearance and hard-working and obedient performance surprised her, and she was in a happy mood all afternoon. In the evening, Lin Qingrou insisted on inviting Zhou Yi to dinner to show her gratitude.

Lin Qingrou asked Zhou Yi to recommend a delicious place, and Zhou Yi took Lin Qingrou to a Japanese restaurant. The mustard squid and almond tempura are both very delicious signature dishes.

After the two had eaten, they said goodbye to each other, Lin Qingrou told Zhou Yi that he was going to participate in this bidding next, and he might not have time to come out to play with him again, Zhou Yi smiled and said that it didn't matter, if you needed help, you could find him at any time.

Lin Qingrou took the elevator with brisk steps, and it could be seen that she was having a very happy day today. When she returned to her room, she found a gift box bag for clothes on the cabinet next to the bed. Lin Qingrou wondered how this thing could have appeared in her room.

When she opened the package, she found that there was a red retro dress inside, this dress design is very unique and eye-catching, cheongsam-style style and vertical collar, Lin Qingrou thinks this dress is very beautiful.

But obviously I haven't bought clothes yet, how can I have such an extra dress in the room. Lin Qingrou thought about whether Lin Qinghe had come to her room, and this dress might have been specially bought by him and given to her. But this is also very strange, Lin Qinghe has never bought clothes for himself, and he doesn't know if the size of the clothes fits him, will he really give them to him?

Lin Qingrou picked up the phone and wanted to contact Lin Qinghe, but there was no response on the other end of the phone as usual. At this time, Lin Qingrou didn't know what to do with this dress, so she had to put it in the room first.

The bidding meeting for the project will be held at 9 a.m., when Xiushan has already gathered many powerful enterprises, businessmen and well-known media. After Lin Qingrou got up, she finally received a text message from Lin Qinghe: "Meet in the hotel lobby at 9 o'clock." ”

Lin Qingrou obediently packed up and got ready, and when the mobile phone screen showed that she had come to the hotel lobby at 8:50, she was waiting for Lin Qinghe to appear.

After a few minutes, Lin Qinghe walked in from outside the hotel, it seems that he didn't stay in the hotel at night, what has he been doing in the past few days. Lin Qingrou was very curious in her heart, but she didn't ask Lin Qinghe, because she knew Lin Qinghe's temper, and even if she asked what she didn't know, Lin Qinghe wouldn't pay attention to her.

"The bidding meeting is in the conference hall on the 4th floor of this hotel, wait for you to go up with me." Lin Qinghe said with a tired face.

Lin Qingrou hesitated slightly, and then nodded.

"Don't worry, Du Zeming is bent on winning this bid, and he doesn't have time to pay attention to personal matters with you." Lin Qinghe patted Lin Qingrou's shoulder and said.

Lin Qingrou nodded and followed Lin Qinghe to the conference hall.

"You can join the company as my secretary now." Lin Qinghe whispered to Lin Qingrou.

Although there are still a few days before the anniversary of the Lin Group, Lin Qinghe wants Lin Qingrou to enter her role in the company at the Xiushan project bidding conference.

At the entrance of the huge conference hall, people kept walking into the venue in twos and threes. Lin Qinghe and Lin Qingrou found a very back seat to sit in, and Lin Qingrou looked at the crowd that was constantly pouring in. It took a long time for Du Zeming to enter the venue surrounded by a group of subordinates, and the Du Group he represented was undoubtedly the biggest favorite to win the bid, and their seats were also in the front row of eye-catching positions.

At the moment when Du Zeming came into the venue, Lin Qingrou unconsciously lowered her body, she still didn't dare to face Du Zeming directly, this is a sense of fear that has been cultivated over the years.

Lin Qinghe observed the situation in the field with great interest. He seemed to have some kind of anticipation for what was going to happen next.

Bidding for the Xiushan Beach project will begin immediately, but unlike before, the project is divided into two plots, east and west, for bidding separately. This sudden change made everyone present a little uproar.

However, since it was not previously stated that the project was to be bid on as a single lot, such a change is also in line with the requirements of the process.

Du Zeming had a bad premonition in his heart at this time, at the beginning he had imagined a lot of possibilities for this project, of course, he also knew in advance that the project would be divided into two plots, east and west, but at this moment he felt that today's bidding was not as smooth as he thought, and he always seemed to feel that something was wrong.

First of all, the bidding for the land in the eastern area was carried out, and the Dushi Group showed its financial momentum as soon as it made a move, and quickly raised the price to a height that few other companies could reach, but there was a company from overseas on the scene that quickly responded to the price.

The sudden appearance of this overseas company came as a surprise to many. Du Zeming was very decisive to continue to raise the price, but the company obviously did not mean to sell easily. After the Du Group raised the price one after another, the overseas company finally stopped responding to the price, so that the land in the eastern area smoothly fell into the hands of Du Zeming and his Du Group.

But Du Zeming knew very well in his heart that the overseas company was maliciously raising the price, and the consequence of this was that the bidding for the remaining land plot in the western area would not have such a big financial advantage.

Du Zeming was eager to know the origin of this overseas company, and he had been fully prepared before, investigating all possible competitors, but he did not expect to ignore this little-known overseas company.

Soon the bidding for the land in the western area began, Du Zeming still took the lead, and soon many companies launched competitions one after another, and the rest was that the overseas company was still bidding with him.

As the bidding continued, Du Zeming already felt that the funds in his hands could no longer be supported, and the overseas company was still aggressive.

It is impossible for Du Zeming to gamble on a large amount of money of the Du Group here, if he does that, it is undoubtedly a huge risk, and it is not like the Lin Group back then, which will eventually lead to the rupture of the capital chain and complete failure.

Du Zeming gritted his teeth angrily and decided not to continue to fight with overseas companies, and finally the West District plot was taken into the arms of overseas companies. When the final result came out, Du Zeming walked out of the venue quickly.

I believe that this is a big blow to him. Lin Qingrou saw everything that happened in the venue, and she was thinking about what immoral means the Du Group used to drive the Lin Group to a dead end, and indirectly killed her parents.

Lin Qingrou began to wonder if Du Zeming knew the truth about these things early on. If he really knew, then it would be really terrible for him to live with this person for so many years.

In the past few days in Xiushan, Du Zeming and Lin Qingrou have been constantly staggered, and they have already known that each other is in Xiushan, but they have never met. Although Lin Qingrou was still a little timid about seeing Du Zeming, she thought of what happened to her parents, and she also wanted to muster up the courage to question Du Zeming, whether he knew the truth back then.

"Well, it's not bad. There will be a luncheon in the afternoon, and I want you to come with me, and remember to put on the dress you bought. Lin Qinghe said and left the venue by himself.

Was that dress really bought by Lin Qinghe? Lin Qingrou thought to herself, she didn't know what the situation of the afternoon luncheon would be, but since she needed to dress formally, it was better to listen to him and change into that dress.
