Two days later, Xia Chaoyang, the owner of Continental Construction Company, arrived with his design team to meet Jiang Hao.
"Hello, Master Jiang. We've spoken on the phone several times, but this is our first time meeting in person."
Xia Chaoyang warmly shook Jiang Hao's hand. He spoke Cantonese, though somewhat awkwardly.
Jiang Hao smiled and replied in Mandarin, "I've only been away from Maoshan for a few months. Let's speak Mandarin instead. It'll be easier to communicate."
Xia Chaoyang was delighted. "Good, good. Mandarin is better."
"Also, don't call me Master Jiang. That's how people in Hong Kong address me. Just call me Jiang Hao or Daoist Jiang," Jiang Hao said.
"Understood, Daoist Jiang. Let's discuss things in the conference room," Xia Chaoyang said.
The two sides sat down in the hotel conference room. Jiang Hao took out the drawings they had submitted earlier, discussed them with the designers, and put forward his revisions.
Style, layout, planning, materials, and so on.
The technicians kept nodding. "No problem, Daoist Jiang. We can handle all of that."
This was a massive order, a huge project, with an estimated total cost of around 2.5 to 3 billion. The client's requirements had to be met.
That afternoon, the group went to Violet Mountain to inspect the site in person.
After three days of discussions with the design and construction teams, the final plans were settled. Both sides signed the contract, and Jiang Hao transferred part of the initial funds.
Watching the construction machinery enter the site one after another, Jiang Hao shook hands with Xia Chaoyang. "President Xia, I'll leave the rest to you. There absolutely can't be any issues with the construction quality."
"Rest assured, Daoist Jiang. The project quality is guaranteed. You can personally inspect every stage," Xia Chaoyang said with
