Chapter 372: More Than Years
Liu Guangtian nodded in agreement, thinking that these suggestions were very practical and feasible. They immediately took action, discussing optimization plans with the design team, communicating with financial institutions, and launching a market research plan.
During this process, Liu Guangtian gradually saw the value of Su Ming as a partner. He is not only a skilled expert, but also a team leader with foresight and execution. His decisions and actions are always quick and decisive, effectively driving the project forward.
A few months later, they successfully dealt with the current challenges and the project's progress returned to normal track. Yan Jiedi's company re-expressed confidence in the cooperation, and they worked together to successfully bring this high-end residential project to the market.
"Mr. Liu, these adjustments and improvements are really effective. Our market performance is much better than expected. I believe we are about to enter a successful stage." Su Ming said to Liu Guangtian in a project progress report.
Liu Guangtian smiled and nodded, full of confidence and expectation for their cooperation. This journey is not only a business project, but also a testimony of the sincere friendship between him, Su Ming and Yan Jiedi. Through unity and hard work, they overcame all difficulties and realized their dreams together.
Su Ming, this name may not be familiar to most people. He was born in a beautiful town. The residents of the town make a living by farming and rely on each other, forming a simple and warm community atmosphere. Su Ming's family is not rich. His parents are ordinary farmers in the town. They are hardworking and simple. Although they live in poverty, they can always convey their love for Su Ming to him meticulously.
He was a lively and active child since he was young, always chasing butterflies in the fields or learning farming from his father. On this land, he met his first friend, and one of the most important friends in his life - Zhang Tianxiang. Tianxiang was another farmer's son in the town, and he was as naughty as Su Ming. The two often went on adventures together, fishing, and even secretly picked fruits to eat. Their friendship began a long journey of growth in the fields in the early morning, accompanied by a ray of sunshine.
When they were young, they were always carefree, and every day was full of novelty and adventure. But as they grew older, they began to understand the hardships of life. On the road to study, Su Ming and Tian Xiang shared many joys and sorrows. They competed with each other in school, encouraged each other, and made progress together. Tian Xiang was a natural leader who always stood up in the face of difficulties and became a role model in the eyes of his classmates. Su Ming was more introverted and liked to think in silence. His horizons gradually expanded from the fields to the wider world.
In high school, they chose different paths. Tianxiang decided to stay in his hometown and inherit his father's business, while Su Ming went to study in another place. After they separated, although they had less contact, their friendship never changed. During the holidays, Su Ming would always return to his hometown and walk in the familiar fields with Tianxiang, reminiscing about the past and looking forward to the future.
After graduating from university, Su Ming chose to work for a well-known company, and his career began to develop rapidly. In the hustle and bustle of the city, he met more friends and colleagues, each with a different background and story. But the most precious thing in his heart is always the friendship he made in his hometown. Although Tianxiang stayed in his hometown, his simplicity and tenacity became the driving force for Su Ming to keep making progress in the workplace.
Life is like a journey, sometimes smooth and sometimes turbulent. Su Ming has experienced ups and downs in his career and twists and turns in his relationship, but whenever he feels tired, he always recalls Tianxiang's smiling face and the scene when they ran together in the golden wheat field.
Time flies. In Su Ming's heart, friendship is the purest emotion and the most precious wealth in life. The friendship between him and Tianxiang is inseparable. They can feel each other's presence without words, just a tacit understanding. Their story may not be recorded in history books, but it has left a deep mark in their hearts.
Today, Su Ming is a successful elite, but he still maintains a deep affection for his hometown and Tianxiang. He knows that no matter where he goes, his roots are always in that familiar land, and his heart is always closely connected with the friend who has experienced ups and downs with him.
Su Ming is the new owner of this courtyard. He is a young writer who likes to pursue stories in ancient alleys. He discovered this courtyard by chance and was attracted by its simplicity and tranquility. In the courtyard paved with bluestone, an old locust tree stands vigorously in the center, surrounded by several gray-white courtyard houses, each with a different house number, witnessing the passage of time and the change of people.
On the first day after moving in, Su Ming began to take care of the courtyard. He cherished this corner of old Beijing. Every morning, he would sit under the locust tree with a cup of hot tea, listening to the birds singing and the voices of the residents in the alley under the morning light. He often imagined what stories had happened in these ancient courtyards and how many undiscovered precious memories were buried.
Su Ming lives with an old lady named Liu. Although she is old, she is still energetic. She gets up early every day to water the flowers and plants in the yard and cooks her three meals a day with ancient pots and pans. She likes to chat with Su Ming and tell him about the old Beijing. She said that this courtyard was built more than a hundred years ago and witnessed the glory of the late Qing Dynasty and the changes of modern Beijing.
In addition to the old lady, there is a family of three living in the yard. The father's surname is Wang, and he is a carpenter with superb craftsmanship. The mother's name is Lihua, a virtuous housewife who is proficient in cooking. Their son Xiaogang is a lively and active little boy who likes to chase butterflies and fly kites in the yard. Su Ming often looks at the happy scene of the family of three in his spare time from writing, and his heart is filled with emotion and warmth.
Living in such a courtyard, Su Ming's creations gradually became more substantial and richer. His novels were based on people and events around him, depicting bits and pieces of stories in the old Beijing courtyards. Once, Su Ming heard an old lady tell a story about the war years: At that time, the courtyard was a shelter, full of refugees and disaster victims. They set up tents under the locust trees and built new homes with their own skills.
Su Ming's novel "Memories Under the Sophora Tree" was written against this background, telling the story of how a young couple lived and interacted in this courtyard during the war years.
