Chapter 219: Chen Xiaohua...Looking for a Partner

The mall couldn't be built in a short time. The construction site was messy, and Xu Hengzhou didn't have the leisure to let Xiang Chen wander around and play.

So even if Xiang Chen occasionally asked, Xu Hengzhou would just casually mention the progress, like the building was under construction or nearing completion. It sounded boring, so Xiang Chen stopped asking later on.

It was Xu Hengzhou who was the busiest, spending most of his time at the construction site. Although he didn't personally do the heavy lifting, the dust at the construction site made him look dirty, completely different from his usual neat appearance.

Xiang Chen was used to seeing him well-dressed and clean, so seeing him in such a disheveled state was both funny and distressing, especially when he saw the dark circles under Xu Hengzhou's eyes, indicating how busy he had been lately.

This was also due to the current shortage of resources in various aspects. Even when he built the nationally renowned large-scale mall in the future, it didn't require as much mental and physical effort as now.

After all, at that time, he was the heir of the Xu Group, which already had a significant market share in the real estate industry. They had their construction team, and there were specialists for architectural drawings, materials, and project supervision. He only needed to oversee the general direction.

But now, this mall could be said to be the first large-scale comprehensive mall in the country. There were no precedents before, and at the beginning, they couldn't even find a construction team.

It was still Chen Xiaohua who helped out. She sought assistance from her teacher, and through her teacher, she contacted a group of engineers from the Architectural Institute and used their affiliated construction team.

As for the design drawings, Xu Hengzhou drew the sketches himself and then had them revised. After all, some of his ideas were too advanced, and at this time, limited by construction tools and materials, some concepts couldn't be realized and needed modifications.

Although Xu Hengzhou was intelligent, he didn't know everything, but now he had forced himself into becoming a jack of all trades. He could plant crops, repair machinery, and draw blueprints, and his specialty was in geology. Who knows, he might even go on a mining expedition with a geological team one day.

Even on the construction site, he learned how to mix cement and lay bricks...

Fortunately, the construction of the mall went very smoothly. With strong backing and support from several major players, there were hardly any troublemakers who dared to cause problems for him.

Moreover, he never abused his authority or took advantage of his position like Deng Li and others. Everything he achieved was through his efforts, without any shortcuts.

In short, Xu Hengzhou's career development can be said to be smooth sailing. After the construction phase, as the supervisory personnel gradually became proficient, Xu Hengzhou even had time to do other things.

At the same time, Xiang Chen's career also encountered another development opportunity—he was going to be promoted to professor.

According to the relevant laws and regulations later promulgated by the country, there was a five-year tenure requirement for promotion from associate professor to professor, but Xiang Chen had only been in the position for a little over three years.
