Riding the wind of rebirth

"Let's go, it's almost time for us to go over there," Old Master Yu handed the Ice Floating Baby Buddha to Xiao Zhuer and said, "If you hadn't come, I don't know where they would be entertaining tonight."

Xiao Liujie and Zhu Dazhang are also very busy people now. Knowing that Zhou Zhi had arrived, they both turned down their social engagements and held a "family dinner" in their newly built villa.

"The kid who wet my bed back then can now give a lecture like a gentleman." Sister Xiaoliu has always attached great importance to maintenance and grooming. Now she is pampered and her temperament and appearance are becoming more outstanding, but her personality has not changed. When she saw Zhou Zhi, she did not forget to joke: "Little pig, come down, why are you clinging to your uncle so much?"

"My dad pushed me into this." Zhou Zhi said with a smile, "In fact, these things have been widely reported in various newspapers and magazines. If everyone pays attention to them, there is no need for me to comment on them."

"Oh, this is a criticism of the entrepreneurs in our city for not liking to read." Sister Xiaoliu liked to distort Zhou Zhi's words.

"That's not what I meant!"

"Uncle, you wet the bed too?" The little pig caught a key word in his mother's words and asked with his big eyes.

"The word 'also' is used well, which shows our comradeship." Zhou Zhi praised the piglet.

"Mommy, mommy, this is the baby Buddha that my uncle gave me." The little pig didn't understand and turned around to show off the icy baby Buddha around his neck to his mother.

"We only wear this during the holidays. We have to put it away when school starts." Little Six said to Little Pig, "If you wear it to school and it gets damaged, your uncle will be sad."

"Well, I like my uncle and I won't make him sad." The little pig promised solemnly.

Zhou Zhi happily kissed the little pig on the face: "I wonder how many kindergarten girls will like this little pig's little mouth in the future."

Sister Xiaoliu took the little pig and put it on the ground to let it run by itself: "Yes, it's time to go to kindergarten soon."

Zhou Zhi then looked around the new villa carefully: "This house is quite beautiful. It is the first villa community in Manzhou City, right? The decoration is quite advanced."

"Didn't you say that? The simpler, the more timeless." Sister Xiaoliu smiled and said, "I don't have your high level of awareness. I don't enjoy my blessings and run to the countryside to suffer."

Zhou Zhi could only smile bitterly: "The academic world is very competitive now. Only by looking for projects in those places will no one compete with you. Isn't this also for the preparation of graduate school courses?"

"My place can't compare to your Suihuaxuan." Sister Xiaoliu said, "Old Zhu went to Shudu some time ago, and Jiang Wu invited guests to your homestay. Old Zhu took a lot of photos and brought them back, praising your place to the sky."

After that, he said fiercely: "Still pretending in front of me, how dare you say that your going to the countryside has nothing to do with Shuyi's going abroad?! You are good at making girls like you, but in the end you can't even get a girl!"

Only my elder sister could say this. Zhou Zhi could only smile bitterly: "Do you think everyone is like you? You little brat just beckoned me and stole the household registration booklet from home to get married desperately..."

"Who stole it?!" Sister Xiaoliu reached out and grabbed Zhou Zhi's ear: "It's you, the thief?!"

The brother and sister started to tour the house while playing and teasing each other.

Sister Xiaoliu is a person who is willing to spend money. When she ran a tobacco shop, she decorated the house very beautifully. Now that she is rich, her husband also runs a lighting, building materials and decoration city. Everything is sold at cost price, so she spends even more generously.

The couple's business is now very big, and the business is divided into several parts. One part is the lighting and building materials decoration city. He handles almost half of the decoration materials and lighting in Manzhou City. Another part is the cooperation with Jiang Wu, the community environment creation and building interior and exterior decoration. As the real estate industry is becoming more and more popular, he recently contracted the Manzhou Binjiang Road renovation project and was responsible for the construction of Binjiang Road and several communities along the riverside road.

The last piece is Xiao Liujie’s old business, the sales of tobacco and famous liquors. Originally, Xiao Liujie had transferred the old shop to Zhu Dazhang’s close friend Liu Er, but as Xiao Liujie’s identity as the independent director and external director contact person of Laojiao Distillery became more and more solid, her circle of friends and the level of partners improved, and she picked up the tobacco and famous liquor business again.

But this time he did it on a big scale. He bought several shops in major cities such as the capital, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, mainly selling famous cigarettes and liquors such as Moutai, Wuliangye, Luzhou Laojiao, Zhonghua, Yunnan Yunnan, Yunyan, and Hongtashan.

After the ban on Luzhou Laojiao's stocks was lifted, Xiao Liujie became a wealthy woman. She could make a fortune just by buying new stocks, and she no longer needed Zhou Zhi to help her make money.

As for the remaining assets, under Zhou Zhi's suggestion, she started to buy properties in major cities. Zhou Zhi gave her the reason that a woman cannot be without a career, and cannot be idle doing nothing. In fact, it was a great gift to her.

Nowadays, the housing price in the inner ring of the capital is only 8,000 yuan per square meter, less than 5,000 yuan near the Capital West Railway Station, and just over 4,000 yuan in places like Fengtai.

In another dozen years or so, these properties will see a tenfold increase in value, and the value of stores may be even more exaggerated.

Xiao Liujie had no motivation at first, until Zhou Zhi persuaded her that there might be a policy in the future that would allow Xiao Zhuer to move his household registration to the capital, which would give him considerable advantages in education and college entrance examinations. This finally moved Xiao Liujie.

Although the little pig may not have to follow this path in the future, it is never a bad idea to grasp this possibility first.

The hearts of parents all over the world are often like this, without any distinction between rich and poor.

Zhu Dazhang came back a little late, and apologized when he saw Zhou Zhi: "I was talked to by the Jiangyang District Management Committee for a long time, and I almost couldn't get away."

"Is Jiangyang District rich?" Zhou Zhi asked, "The renovation of Binjiang Road is not a small project."

"What money do we have?" Zhu Dazhang said, "We can't even provide the basic three connections and one leveling, but we can offer a lot of discounts, and we promised to distribute the profits according to the investment ratio after the commercial housing is sold."

"This is not appropriate." Zhou Zhi pondered for a moment: "What is the investment ratio promised by Jiangyang District? Has the funds been secured? If it is a fiscal allocation, has the approval been obtained? If it is a loan, which bank? How many installments will the money be paid in, how will it be paid, and how much interest will it have?"

"Aren't these the Jiangyang District Committee's affairs?" Zhu Dazhang was a little confused: "I can't possibly take on their affairs as well, right?"

"But the more such cooperation there is, the more clearly the responsibilities and powers must be distinguished. Where any problems may arise, corresponding settlement clauses must be drafted." Zhou Zhi said: "We at Clover have cooperated with the government many times, but we are very cautious because we have found many cases in China where the responsibilities and powers are not clear in some details, and there are no binding response clauses for possible situations, which eventually develop into a huge obstacle to the project."

"For example, in this case, if Jiangyang District cannot provide the investment they promised, or cannot provide all of it, are there matching responsibilities and rights constraints, debt transfer clauses and specific solutions?"

"But aren't they the government?" Zhu Dazhang had never suffered any loss in this regard and imagined his partners to be very good.

Zhou Zhi smiled: "The biggest problem with local governments is that they only have one term of office for four years and then people leave and forget about them. Therefore, the legal constraints on them must be strict, and when drafting the contract, the constraints on the subsequent team must also be pointed out and added."

"Are you all so arrogant?" Zhu Dazhang was stunned. (End of this chapter)
