My courtyard shelter

"Mr. Wu, is it okay if we don't set up a joint venture? Which piece of land you want to develop, I can sell it directly to your company.

Xu Dong has always been opposed to establishing a joint venture. He would rather suffer some losses than be tied to the other party.

No matter how powerful Xia Jian Group is, it will not be able to develop the entire Guanyue District in just a few years.

As long as it lasts a few years, the harvest will come next.

"No." Mr. Wu shook his head, "Our company is a state-owned enterprise and it is not appropriate to come forward. It would be bad if it triggers a backlash from the Southern Dynasties."

Xu Dong gritted his teeth and asked bravely:

"Excuse me for being rude, can our real estate company make money?"

"Well, I won't hide it from you! Making money is definitely not our first choice.

However, for such a big project, we cannot rely solely on state subsidies. It is unrealistic. Besides, life in China is not easy, so we need to make money ourselves. Profit is a must, so you don’t have to be careful. "

Mr. Wu replied patiently.

"What is the profit margin? Is there a standard?"

Xu Dong continued to ask.

"The house hasn't been built yet, and everything is uncertain. Let's put it this way, if the sales are hot, we can make a few more points. If the sales are cold..."

"Are we still going to lose money?"

“It’s definitely not a loss, at most it’s just a small loss in the early stage, and you’ll make it back later when the market opens up.

Section Chief Xu, you are well aware of the domestic situation. I think as long as housing prices are right, there will definitely be no shortage of buyers. We don’t need to worry too much. "

Mr. Wu persuaded with a smile.

"I'm confident, but I'm afraid that you will ignore everything for the sake of political achievements." Xu Dong said with a bitter smile.

"That's not enough. Although our group is a state-owned enterprise, it still has to be responsible for its own profits and losses. If the group cannot pay wages, I, the general manager, will not be able to sit still."

"Just kidding!"

Mr. Wu shook his head: "This is no joke. There are hundreds of thousands of people in our Xia Jian Group, and so many people's lives depend on me. Speaking of which, I am more afraid of losing money than you are."

Xu Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Wu, it's no problem to invest in land, but Hancheng University has become a low-cost apartment for our company. Can it be excluded?"

If you think about it with your toes, you know that the official purchase price is definitely not much higher.

He wanted to keep some private property and make a lot of money when the time came, so that he would not have to work for a long time and end up making wedding clothes for others.

Mr. Wu frowned. Although Hancheng University only occupies one-tenth of the entire Guanyue District, its building complex is quite complete, just like a big fat piece of meat.

But it’s not easy to eat this piece of fat.

Hancheng University has been converted into low-cost apartments by the other party. He really can't find a suitable reason. It would be very unsightly if things went wrong.

The person in front of me is not some unknown person.

Regardless of the other party's family background, the other party still has many honors, especially the titles of "First-Class Merit" and "National Model Worker", which are definitely not a joke.

"Okay, except Hancheng University."

"Thank you, Mr. Wu." Xu Dong thanked him quickly.

"You don't need to thank me. Our Xia Jian Group is a state-owned enterprise. We are not the kind of company that is blind to money. Don't worry."

Xu Dong couldn't help but curl his lips, "You are the only one who believes in you."

Mr. Wu picked up the water glass and took a sip of water. "Chief Xu, do you have any good suggestions on the name of the joint venture?"

"Mr. Wu, you just have to make up your mind."

Xu Dong almost spat out.

Let’s give this false reputation to the other party!

Mr. Wu was very happy: "How about the name 'Huimin Real Estate'?"

"What a good name, benefiting the people and benefiting the people. It directly implements the spirit of the superiors and makes it clear to everyone."

Xu Dong immediately gave a thumbs up.

Although the name chosen by Mr. Wu is very vulgar, it does fit the identity of the new company and is generally pretty good.

"As long as you are satisfied! The new company will be registered next Monday, and there will be a signing ceremony then. I wonder if Mr. Zhang has time?"

"If we have time, we will definitely attend on time."

Xu Dong quickly assured.

"Very good!" Mr. Wu pretended to cough, "I have another unwelcome favor."

"Please tell me."

"The new community still needs a bread factory. Can you ask Director Xu to help?"

"Open a branch factory? Is it necessary?"

The population of the Southern Dynasties was there, and the market was too small.

"It is necessary. Firstly, Hancheng has a good future prospect. With the increase of immigrants, the market will become bigger and bigger. Secondly, having a bread factory is also a huge advantage for our new community."

Xu Dong understood in an instant, isn't this the same as housing in a school district?

However, it is also good for him to raise housing prices. Since he can make more money, there is no reason to refuse.

"Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with my dad. It shouldn't be a problem."

"Trouble." Mr. Wu said happily.

Xu Dong waved his hand: "This is a win-win situation, not to mention trouble!"

Finally, the two sides discussed the issue of water and electricity supply.

“Power supply is easy to solve. You can pull a wire directly from the port and it doesn’t take much time.

Water supply is more troublesome. The water pipeline cannot be built in a day or two, it will take at least one or two months. "

Mr. Wu said helplessly.

"Mr. Wu, the water supply is not urgent. If it is not possible, we should dig a few deep wells first to deal with emergencies."

"It's probably very difficult. I've visited there before and found that the groundwater resources in the entire Hancheng are almost exhausted. A well with a depth of several hundred meters can produce less than two cubic meters of water a day, which is a drop in the bucket."

"Then we can only buy a few more water trucks."

"This is on us."

…

After coming out of Xia Jian Group's headquarters, Mr. Cai didn't even return home, insisting on going back to Hancheng. Xu Dong tried to persuade him to no avail, and finally sent him to the airport himself.

When I got home, it was just after half past eleven.

The three Dabao brothers have come back and are playing with figures in the living room. You don't need to guess to know that the fruits of the morning's labor have gone into Lele's pocket.

Xu Dong wiped the dust off his face, then wandered over to his mother: "Mom, are you free the day after tomorrow?"

"What's the matter?" Xu's mother asked doubtfully.

"Hey, the company has a contract and you need to sign it."

In any case, Xu Ma is the actual owner of Kuai 8 Hotel, and no one can be missing her at the signing ceremony.

"What contract? Why didn't your dad tell me?"

"It's not a contract from the bakery, it's from the Kuai 8 Hotel." Xu Dong quickly corrected.

"Quick 8 Hotel? Ask that person... to sign for me. Mom is busy and has no time."

Xu Ma said directly.

Xu Dong patiently explained: "Mom, this time I signed a contract with Xia Jian Group. Mr. Cai's status is not enough."

"Which Xia Jian Group?"

Xu Dong immediately took out his mobile phone, did some encyclopedia about Xia Jian Group, and then handed it to his mother.

Xu Ma wiped her hands with her apron and took the phone with a puzzled look on her face. She didn't know what happened. She was shocked when she saw that Xia Jian Group had such a big background.

"Don't you run a hotel? How come you have anything to do with it?"

Yang Lina came over and helped answer:

"Mom, Dongzi bought a university and a large piece of land in Hancheng in the name of Kuai 8 Hotel. It sounds like Kuai 8 Hotel is not a small company."

"Can you buy it in college?" Xu's mother asked in surprise.

Xu Dong smiled and replied: "Mom, it's an abandoned university with more than 6,000 acres. I took it and turned it into a low-cost apartment."

"Oh, the area is really quite big."

"Of course it's not small. In addition, we still have more than 40,000 acres of land. This cooperation with Xia Jian Group is related to this land."

"What kind of cooperation?" Xu Ma asked curiously.

"We plan to establish a joint venture company with the aim of jointly developing these 40,000 acres of land."

"What does the company do? How many shares do we hold?"

Xu Ma asked impatiently.

"It's mainly engaged in real estate development, and our family owns 30% of the shares."

"It turns out to be a real estate company! Isn't it explicitly prohibited by the state..."

Xu Dong quickly reassured: "Mom, domestic is domestic, foreign is foreign. Foreign countries are different from ours. There is no housing reform abroad."

"Does your dad know about this?"

"I know, my father helped me raise the money to buy the land." Xu Dong replied.

Xu's mother was relieved. It wasn't that she didn't trust her youngest son, but that the third son was sometimes too out of touch and often did impulsive things, which was a headache.

"The morning after tomorrow, right? Let your dad accompany me there then."

As soon as he finished speaking, Father Xu walked over and said curiously:

"Old lady, where are you going?"

Xu Dong immediately pulled his father aside and explained the matter.

Dad Xu was very happy: "Cooperation is a good thing. Xia Jian Group has strong strength and is good for the development of your company."

"Hopefully!"

Xu Dong was really unsure, but fortunately, the low-cost apartment was saved.

Father Xu continued:

"As for opening a branch factory? It's not difficult. The production lines are ready. You just need to place an order directly."

"Dad, you can build a small factory first. There are not many people in Hancheng. When it develops in the future, it will not be too late to expand." Xu Dong reminded.

"I know, but the flour may be a bit troublesome, so I guess it will take a lot of effort."

After the signing of the Asia-Pacific Treaty, although Hancheng is not too short of food, flour is in short supply and may not be able to be imported from the other side, so we still have to find a way from home.

"Let the people of Xia Jian Group worry about it. They are state-owned giants with broad paths. Maybe they can come up with a solution."

Father Xu nodded: "When we meet the day after tomorrow, I will talk to them in person."

The father and son had only been chatting for a few minutes when Xu's mother shouted for dinner to begin.

Today is the weekend, and it also happens to be Xu Dong's thirty-seventh birthday, so the meal is a little richer than usual.

Xu Ma also specially killed an old hen.

Before the meal started, at Yang Lina's signal, the five siblings stood in a row, each holding a cup of tea in their hands.

"Dad, I wish you a happy birthday and a long life!"

Xu Dong picked up the wine glass, clinked it with the children one by one, and replied with a smile: "Dad is still young, and we'll talk about it later."

"Instead of talking about Shoubinan Mountain, what should I say?"

Dabao said doubtfully.

"Haha, then I wish daddy will always be young!"

Xu Dong touched his belly. In the blink of an eye, he was almost forty. Time flew by so fast.
