“Son, you are back? Is your little nephew cute?” Feng Xingtai laughed and asked.

Feng Yu: “……” Hehe, you all had created a monster and are still unaware.

“Dad, where is Grandpa?”

“He went downstairs to play chess with your Grandpa Li. Let me tell you… kids are adorable. When you are small……”

Feng Yu immediately knew what his father was up to. He wants Feng Yu to get married earlier and have a child. Luckily Feng Yu was good at changing the subject.

“Errr…… Dad, I heard that road repairs in our village have reached Xingtai Street 8?”

When mentioned about this, Feng Xingtai immediately smiles: “Hahaha, we spent so much money on the road repairs. They must work fast. But the village is too small, and there are not a lot of people. We cannot continue to build roads.”

“Dad, people will move to the village in the future. The Government is building small towns. We will continue to build more roads. Maybe we can even erect a statue of you in the village.”

“Nonsense! What statue? Your father is still not dead!”

“We can build a monument instead. A monument with writings. You can write it yourself. This monument will last for hundreds of years.”

“Eh… this is a good idea! Good idea! You should start building it now. No. You cannot do it now. I need to practice my calligraphy first.” Feng Xingtai was excited. But he remembered that he is not good at calligraphy.

“I will help you get paper and brushes tomorrow. I will also hire someone from our Provincial calligraphy association to guide you.”

Feng Yu turned and walk away with a sly smile. His father will be too busy practicing his calligraphy and will not have time to bother him.

……

“Manager Feng, have you finish building your village’s roads? Are you going to repair the road leading to the town? It is a long road, and it will be costly.” Manager Li from Provincial Construction heard that Feng Yu was looking for a construction team and was overjoyed.

They do not need to cut corners when they worked for Feng Yu. Feng Yu paid them handsomely, and if their work meets his requirements, he would still give out bonuses. He was different from other clients, where they were not willing to pay more and wanted high standard work. Those other clients do not understand the meaning of you get what you pay. If all clients were like Feng Yu, they would not have any headaches.

“Your Provincial Construction have any experience in repairing and building a dam?”

“Repair what? Dam? You want to build a dam for your village? That can be easily done. You can just dig up the soil along the river to build it. But you need more heavy machinery. I will get my people to do up a quotation for you.” Manager Li said. He thought to himself. Why Manager Feng is not from my hometown? My hometown is a county, and the streets are not as wide as Feng Yu’s village.

“I want a dam that can prevent flooding.”

“I guarantee it can prevent floods.”

“It must be able to withstand severe flooding which happens once in a hundred years. It must be wide enough for cars to drive on it. Can you do it?”

“Manager Feng, is there a need for this? It will be costly if we go according to your requirements. We will need a stone or concrete dam. A meter of such dam will cost much more than a meter of road.” Manager Li knew Feng Yu was wealthy, but building a dam is not a small amount.

“You prepare a quotation for me and prepare several options for me to choose from. It must include those ordinary dams. I will take a look and will pick the best option. You should know my requirements. I don’t mind the cost, but the quality of work must be there. If you are not able to meet my demand, don’t blame me.”

“Don’t worry, Manager Feng. Although we are not good at designing dams, we are located just next to Water Resources Planning Institute. We will ask them to design, and we will construct.” Manager Li was thinking in his heart. It would be best if this dam is built using concrete and stones. This way, his company will be able to earn much more. Water Resources Planning Institute will surely take away part of his profits.

“I will let you handle this. If there are any problems, I will look for you.”

“Rest assured. This is also not the first time we are working together. Since when did we give you any problems?” Hmmm…… We did not face any problems with Manager Feng’s projects.

……

“Secretary Xu, what is the Province’s budget on the waterworks this year?”

Xu Changyou looked at Feng Yu, shocked. “What do you want?”

“I just want to know how much budget is set aside to improve the waterworks. I will donate Yuan to Yuan. I hope our province will improve the river dams this year. Our province has 3 rivers, and every few years, there will be a sudden increase in rainfall. We will have floods easily, and I wish to do something about it.” Feng Yu said.

“Yuan for Yuan donation? Repair our river dam? Manager Feng, can you change your donations to repairing our roads? Our dams in the province are well built, and we do conduct regular inspections and repairs annually. It will be able to withstand flood.” Xu Changyou replied. How much does it cost to repair the dams? If Feng Yu was willing to donate a sum of money to the Province, it should be used to improve the roads.

Feng Yu was feeling helpless. If Longjiang province is not one of the worst flooded regions in the country, he would also not donate money to rebuild the dams.

I only want to do my part to reduce the damages of the flood. The two lakes regions in Hubei and Hunan also need donations. All my profits for this year will be gone. How can I still help you repair the roads?

“Secretary Xu, I have a condition in exchange for my donations to repair the dams. My condition is to rename the dams as Wind and Rain Dams. This is related to my company’s promotion. Also, the Province must promote all our products for us free of charge. This is not a big request, and I am not interested in repairing the roads.”

Who will believe Feng Yu if he says the whole Longjiang province will be flooded in two years? Grains reserve and repairing of the dams were to prepare for the floods that will be happening in 1998.

If there were no floods, Feng Yu would never spend money to repair the dams. He would rather donate more school buildings. He will be overtaking Sir Shaw as the number one philanthropist in education. Tai Hua Buildings will take up a special place in every student’s heart.

In the future, everyone will feel proud and will look forward to work for the Tai Hua brand of companies. Of course. Feng Yu’s parents will also be happy.

“All the dams have to be called Wind and Rain Dams? This is not right. We had already repaired most of the dams.” Xu Changyou was not very happy with this proposal. He had heard that Feng Yu likes to have a good reputation, but this is too much.

“Wind and Rain Dams. Unbeatable against Wind and Rain. This is a good slogan. Furthermore, I am making a huge donation. Why can’t the Provincial Government give me the naming rights of the dams? Those dams which were repaired do not need any more maintenance? If the Province’s budget for waterworks this year is 100 million RMB, I will donate 100 million RMB. If the Provincial Government can set aside 1 billion RMB, I will match it even if I have to sell my woks and pans to raise money!”

Sell woks and pans? Do you really need to sell them? But Xu Changyou understands how determine Feng Yu was. It would be good for the whole province if they were able to upgrade and repair all the dams. Hmmm… This must be discussed with the Waterworks Department.

“Manager Feng, how about we add ‘Wind and Rain’ in front of the dam names and erect a stone sign at the dam, stating that you donated money to repair the dam?”

“That will do too. But you don’t need to put my name. You can use Wind and Rain Electronics or Wind, Rain Home Appliances, etc. Contact me again once this is decided. I will be going overseas again after Lunar New Year.”

“How can we let you wait? I will give you an answer before Lunar New Year.”

After Feng Yu left, Xu Changyou immediately called his secretary in. “Ask Yang Liwen to come to my office now.”
