The old man couldn't help asking: "I plan to retire next year, why did I retire early now?"

Li Yalin shrugged his shoulders in embarrassment: "Uncle An, this matter is that the child has no mother, it's a long story..."

Hearing that there seemed to be many stories in Li Yalin's words, Mr. An said, "It's okay, it doesn't matter if the story is long, let's talk slowly at the dinner table."

Mr. An has just passed through the gate of hell, and he has serious memory problems, so he knows nothing about the most lively things in America right now.

However, he knew Li Yalin very well. He knew that this kid had a very stubborn temper, and it was logical that he would never admit defeat at any time, so he was even more curious about what he went through.

Li Yalin knew that it was impossible to explain clearly with the old man in three or two sentences, so he said vaguely: "Okay, Uncle An, I won't bother you with my trivial matters. I will accompany you later." You drink two cups!"

The old lady hurriedly said, "Yalin, you can't let Uncle An drink. If he drinks with his brain, he might not even know me."

"Yes yes yes..." Li Yalin came back to his senses and hurriedly said: "Blame me, blame me, blame me for not thinking carefully."

The old man chuckled, and said, "I can tell you must want to drink by yourself, seeing your dejected look."

After speaking, he said to An Chongqiu and An Kaifeng: "Chongqiu, Kaifeng, you two will drink with Yalin later, and I won't drink."

The two brothers nodded: "Okay Dad."

The old man looked at Li Yalin's decadence that could not be concealed, and pretended to be serious and said: "Yalin! Be more energetic! Look at you now, you don't have the heroic appearance of your father back then!"

Li Yalin quickly stood up straight, and said respectfully: "Uncle An, what you are criticizing is..."

An Chongqiu looked at the time at this time, and said, "Dad, why don't we have dinner first, and chat at the dinner table later."

"Okay." The old man nodded: "Eat first."

The top floor of Anbang Building has a construction area of ??more than 4,000 square meters. Normally, it can accommodate at least hundreds of people for office work. However, this entire floor was originally used by the old man alone.

On this floor, there are not only conventional office configurations such as offices and conference rooms, but also living facilities such as swimming pools, gyms, physiotherapy rooms, and restaurants.

In fact, the old man did not intend to use such a large area as his office space back then, but when his eldest daughter An Chengqi planned this building, he had already reserved this floor for him, and did it herself, according to his preferences. The interior decoration, so the old man has a very deep feeling for this place.

Afterwards, everyone moved to the Chinese restaurant located in the south of the top floor. Although Li Yalin has a good relationship with An's family, he hasn't been here for many years. Seeing that everything here is still brand new, he couldn't help being surprised.

He couldn't help asking An Chongqiu in a low voice: "Chongqiu, this building of yours has been in use for at least 20 or 30 years, right? Why is it still so new?"

An Chongqiu said in a low voice: "The An family has strong financial resources, so the overall maintenance of this building is also very good. Basically, it needs to be renovated every two to three years. This floor is maintained by a special person every day. Since my sister After his death, the old man gave a death order, and all the patterns here are not allowed to change, so all the things you can see on this floor have at least several sets of brand new spares, and some things that have been discontinued are specially paid for. Hire a craftsman to reproduce it."

As he said that, An Chongqiu pointed to the carpet in the corridor, and said, "The carpet under your feet is hand-woven by Iranian craftsmen, which is similar to the one used in the Abu Dhabi Grand Mosque later, and the cost per square meter is nearly one thousand dollars." At the beginning, the old man hired more than a hundred craftsmen from Iran at one go, and weaved dozens of sets according to the carpet left by my sister, and changed it every year."

Li Yalin was speechless, and couldn't help but said: "Your family really doesn't take money as money...a carpet that costs $10,000 per square meter can only be replaced within a year... Don't you feel bad about throwing away the money like this..."

An Chongqiu said earnestly: "Lao Li, when it comes to matters like money, if you only look at the amount and not the ratio, that's hooliganism."

Li Yalin asked in surprise, "What do you mean?"

An Chongqiu said casually: "The cost of replacing such a carpet in An's family accounts for the proportion of An's assets, which is basically equivalent to replacing the trash can with a new trash bag. Do you feel distressed when you change the trash bag?"

"Fuck..." Li Yalin smacked his lips and said cursingly, "Fucking you again."

An Chongqiu curled his lips: "Just tell the truth."

While talking, everyone came to the Chinese restaurant one after another. The old man greeted Li Yalin to him and asked Li Yalin to sit down next to him.

Since An Kaifeng had already greeted everyone in advance, the service staff immediately served the prepared meals one after another as soon as everyone was seated. JrNovels.com
